The mounting device has at least two receiving blocks on a load-bearing structure, each block having two face-to-face parallel ribs, as well as at least two damping studs. Each is produced from an elastically deformable material and includes two parallel grooves able to interact, by sliding, with the two parallel ribs of a receiving block. Each damping stud also has a bearing face suitable for interacting with an item of equipment, as well as having an abutment face suitable for interacting with...

The invention concerns a lighting or signalling equipment for a motor vehicle comprising a housing and adjustable means for fixing said housing on a structural part of the vehicle, and stop means countering the headlamp displacement in a specific direction to define a reference position for said headlamp relative to the car body. The invention is characterized in that the adjustable fixing means comprise a rotary fixing member capable of co-operating with said structural part and driving during ...

Fixing of a fluid reservoir onto a part of the vehicle provided for this purpose. The reservoir is fixed onto the front-face module of the vehicle. A housing corresponding to the reservoir is provided in the module, into which the reservoir is inserted, then fixed by clipping.

The invention concerns a motor vehicle assembly comprising a structural element and a headlamp for the vehicle, wherein the structural element is separate from the motor vehicle body and capable of being directly mounted thereon; the structural element and the headlamp have complementary arrangements for mounting the headlamp on the structural element while allowing the headlamp at least one degree of freedom along a specific direction; the headlamp and the car body have complementary stop arran...

The element has a first component of the general shape of a channel exhibiting opposite free edges, and a second, plastic component overmoulded onto the first component. Each free edge is divided, in its longitudinal direction, into segments which are offset with respect to one another alternately inwards and outwards in the sideways direction of the channel. The second component forms, on each free edge, a longitudinal bead which covers over the outer face of the segments which are offset inwar...

Irreversible loss of lithium during the initial discharge cycle of secondary batteries with carbon intercalation electrodes is substantially reduced by employing as the cell electrolyte a non-aqueous solution of LiPF.sub.6 in a mixture of dimethylcarbonate and ethylene carbonate. By this means, in a secondary battery cell comprising, for example, a Li.sub.1+x Mn.sub.2 O.sub.4 positive electrode and a graphite negative electrode, up to about 90% of the theoretical level of lithium can be reversib...

An electrolyte resistant to oxidation normally resulting from high voltage charging of a secondary battery comprising a Li.sub.1+x Mn.sub.2 O.sub.4 intercalation positive electrode comprises a 0.5M to 2M solution of LiPF.sub.6 dissolved in a mixture of non-aqeuous dimethylcarbonate (DMC) and ethylene carbonate (EC) solvents wherein said solvents are present in a weight percent ratio range from about 95 DMC:5 EC to 20 DMC:80 EC.

The invention concerns a front panel comprising a top metal section extending over the whole width of the panel and provided with holes for fixing it to the motor vehicle structural elements, and a metal support provided with a hole for fixing it to other structural elements or fittings of the vehicle. The section and the support are separate parts, mechanically interlocked by a plastic material jointly overmoulded on the section and the support. Said structure enables in particular the use of s...

The invention concerns a device for fixing a piece of equipment for a motor vehicle, in particular a heat exchanger (20), on a structural element of the vehicle (10) such as a front surface module. The invention is characterised in that the device comprises at least two shoes (30) arranged on either side of the piece of equipment (20), while the structural element (10) comprises at least two substantially parallel internal edges (11a, 11b) defining an open part (15) wherein is mounted the piece ...

The invention concerns a front panel comprising a plastic frame reinforced by a top metal section extending over the whole width of the panel and provided with structure for fixing it to the vehicle structural elements. The section is a directly mounted section and force-fitted on a crosspiece of the plastic frame, both the section and the crosspiece comprising mutually fitting structure and co-operating elements for crimping the section on the crosspiece.
