DESC:[001] The present subject matter relates to offset engine mount cross member for heavy commercial vehicles and method of manufacturing thereof.

[002] It is challenged to remove the starter motor from the engine system due to space contains in the onboard condition of the vehicle. Hence user or customer has to take vehicle at the dealer place for complete removal of complete engine and lift the engine towards replacement of starter motor lead into costly affairs in addition to customer vehicle downtime and dis-satisfaction.

[003] Therefore, there is a need of integrated compact system to overcome above challenges in a cost-effective manner.

[004] The present subject matter solves the aforementioned and other problems by replacing starter motor without removing engine from vehicle in the on-board condition, wherein offset engine mount cross member system is being developed.

[005] In the present system, the structural change in the engine mounting frame of the engine shift the engine away from the base platform, which result into providing sufficient space for removal of start motor of the engine system without lifting the engine position.

[006] Further the present system is having tube cross member design over sheet metal forming parts considering manufacturing feasibility and reduce part cost and development time too.

[007] The advantage of present subject matter is to easy replacement of starter motor even on road, no need to go to service station resultant minimum break down time of vehicle, thereby increase in vehicle uptime. Further it reduces the labor cost and working time for starter motor replacement in a cost-effective manner.

[008] The present subject matter develops a starter motor of small size, which can be remove in current space available without offset engine mount.

[009] The present system comprising casting mounted bracket connected bracket welded on tube bend for offset connection which is lighter and ease in manufacturing.

[0010] Although the present disclosure is described in terms of certain preferred embodiments and examples, other embodiments and examples will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art, given the benefit of this disclosure, including embodiments and examples that do not provide all of the benefits and features set forth herein, which are also within the scope of this disclosure. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized, without departing from the true spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0011] It is to be understood that other embodiments of the present disclosure will become readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description, wherein it is shown and described only various embodiments of the disclosure by way of illustration. Accordingly, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not as restrictive.

[0012] It would become abundantly clear to a person in the art, after reading this specification that the present subject matter also provides a structural change in the engine mounting frame of the engine shift by which the engine shift away from the base platform result into providing sufficient space for removal of start motor of the engine system without lifting the engine position in an on-board condition effectively and without departing from the spirit of the present subject matter. While the subject matter may be susceptible to various modifications and alternative forms, specific embodiments have been shown by way of example in the drawings and have been described herein. Alternate embodiments or modifications may be practiced without departing from the spirit of the present subject matter. The drawings shown are schematic drawings and may not be to the scale. While the drawings show some features of the subject matter, some features may be omitted. Alternatively, in some other cases some features may be emphasized while others are not. Further, the methods disclosed herein may be performed in manner and/or order in which the methods are explained. Alternatively, the methods may be performed in manner or order different than what is explained without departing from the spirit of the present subject matter. It should be understood that the subject matter is not intended to be limited to the particular forms disclosed. Rather, the subject matter is to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the subject matter.
