Mounting component for a motor vehicle and method for installing a vehicle electrical system for a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A mounting component to be installed in a motor vehicle, including a module rack securely mounted with components of a vehicle electrical system, and at least one additional module of the vehicle electrical system electrically connected to said components,wherein said at least one additional module has a dimension that extends beyond dimensions of the module rack and is rolled up into at least one loop and placed in a recess embedded in the module rack.

Abstract
The mounting component (2) includes a module rack (4), on which components (6, 10) of a vehicle electrical system have been mounted beforehand, and is intended for installation in the motor vehicle (18) together with the previously mounted components (6, 10). At least one additional module of the vehicle electrical system (11) that extends beyond the spatial limit of the module rack (4) is connected by prior assembly with the components (6, 10) arranged on the module rack (4). The module rack (4) also serves as a self-contained transportation base for both the pre-assembled components (6, 10) and the additional electrical system module (11). This configuration enables a high degree of pre-assembly and thus also simplifies final assembly.

7. A method for installing a motor vehicle electrical system into a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
securing components of the vehicle electrical system onto a module rack at a pre-assembly location; electrically connecting the components secured onto the mount rack with an additional electrical system module with one dimension that extends beyond dimensions of the module rack; rolling up the electrical system module into at least one loop at the pre-assembly location after the connecting step; placing the rolled-up electrical system module into a recess embedded in the module rack at the pre-assembly location; transporting the module rack together with the components secured thereon and the rolled-up and placed electrical system module from the pre-assembly location to a final assembly location thereby using the module rack as a transportation base; and installing at the final assembly location the module rack in the motor vehicle together with the components secured thereon and the rolled-up and placed electrical system module. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
