Abstract: The device for removing pollution from the exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine includes an exhaust box (12) containing, in series, a catalytic purification unit (18) and a particle filter (20). The exhaust box (12) includes means (36; 60) providing access to the upstream face of the particle filter (20). Application to removing pollution from automobile vehicle diesel engines in particular.
Abstract: In an arrangement for mounting a fan motor on a heat exchanger comprising a body extending between two heat-exchange fluid tanks connected together by tubes carrying cooling fins and in which a heat-exchange fluid flows, the motor is fixed to a support at least one portion of which is molded onto the body. The motor is preferably fixed to the support by at least one screw, for example a self-tapping screw, screwed into the support. The molded material is preferably a plastics material.

Abstract: This cross-beam has a central part (12) forming a support for a heat exchange and two lateral parts (14) forming supports for respective headlights. Each lateral part (14) is connected to the central part (12) by releasable fastening means (22, 26 to 32). The fastening means preferably include, associated with each lateral part (14), two complementary positioning dihedra (D1) respectively on the central part (12) and on the corresponding lateral part (14), and complementary means (22, 26 to 32) for immobilizing the dihedra relative to each other cooperating with each other by relative displacement of the dihedra substantially parallel to their edge (A1).
