Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pickup truck hoods, specifically relating to a front rail connector for a rigid hood. Background Technology

[0002] Pickup trucks are an important part of the automotive market. A pickup truck is a type of vehicle that uses the front and cab of a sedan while having an open cargo bed. Its characteristics are that it has the comfort of a sedan, strong power, and is more capable of carrying cargo and adapting to bad roads than a sedan. The most common pickup truck model is the double-cab pickup. Pickup trucks can be used as special vehicles, multi-purpose vehicles, official vehicles, and commercial vehicles, as well as family vehicles for carrying cargo, tourism, and rental. The so-called "pickup truck" is a hybrid of sedan and truck. With the expansion of the number of modification enthusiasts, pickup truck modification is becoming an increasingly popular category among modification enthusiasts.

[0003] Existing pickup truck hoods are divided into soft and hard hoods. Due to the need for support and tightness of connection, hard hoods are currently more commonly used. Hard hoods consist of a frame made of profiles, with panels connected within the frame. The front panel is made of profiles, and front panel connectors are attached to both ends as plugs. Existing front panel connectors are simply snap-fit ​​connections, resulting in poor stability. Secondly, the front panel is fixed to the vehicle body and usually cannot be opened, while the rear panels need to be rotated to open. There is a waterproof strip between the front panel and the vehicle body, but there is no waterproof structure at the front panel connector, posing a risk of leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A front bumper connector for a rigid vehicle hood includes a connector body, the connector body having a protrusion, a slide, and a panel;

[0006] The panel is located on the upper side of the connector body. The protruding head is provided with a bolt inlet. The bolt inlet is connected to a slide rail. The slide rail is used to connect and tighten bolts. Connecting blocks are provided on both sides of the protruding head. The protruding head is used to engage with the car cover profile.

[0007] By improving the front rail connector, tension bolts are used to tighten the front rail connector, ensuring the stability of the front rail connector connection.

[0008] Furthermore, the slide rail is provided with a support surface, which is used to support the tensioning bolt.

[0009] By setting up a support surface, the support surface is used to support the tension bolt, so that the tension bolt can tighten and connect the joint body.

[0010] Furthermore, the connector body is also provided with a rubber strip connecting groove, which is used to connect the rubber strip foot.

[0011] The front rail is rotatably connected to the panel. To improve the waterproof effect, a waterproof strip needs to be connected at the rotatable point. The waterproof strip has two feet, one of which is connected to the front rail and the other is connected to the main body. The strip connection groove is connected to the lower part of the strip foot, which has a certain waterproof effect.

[0012] Furthermore, the connector panel is located on the upper side of the hood, forming a water-blocking structure. The connecting block is used for hood connection, and the connector body is connected to the profile of the front rail through the connecting block.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. By adding a slide rail, this utility model can install a tension bolt inside the slide rail, and use the tension bolt to tighten the front rail joint, which can ensure the stability of the front rail joint connection.

[0015] 2. This utility model extends the waterproof adhesive strip, which was originally only on the main body of the hood, to the front rail joint by setting a connecting groove for the adhesive strip, thereby achieving a certain waterproof effect. Attached Figure Description
