VIBRATION-PROOF STRUCTURE OF FRONT-END MODULE

Pulsation sound/vibration propagated from a plurality of in-vehicle parts incorporated in a vehicle front section via a vehicle body into a vehicle compartment is suppressed with no decrease in rigidity with which the in-vehicle parts are supported by the vehicle body. In a front-end module (FEM) in which a plurality of in-vehicle parts (12), (40), (42), and (28) incorporated in a vehicle front section are aggregated and assembled to a heat exchanger support frame (50), the plurality of in-vehicle parts (12), (40), (42), and (28) are classified into first in-vehicle parts (12), (40), and (42), which vibrate at frequencies in a first frequency band, and a second in-vehicle part (28), which vibrates at a frequency in a second frequency band having a frequency range higher than the frequency range in the first frequency band. The first in-vehicle parts (12), (40), and (42) are elastically supported by the heat exchanger support frame (50) via first mount members (51), (52), and (53). The second in-vehicle part (28) is rigidly fixed to the heat exchanger support frame (50). The heat exchanger support frame (50) is elastically supported by a vehicle body via second mount members (57) and (58).
