Description

1 TARIFF A BUFFER Technical Area 5 This invention mechanically connects the brackets on which parking distance sensors are mounted to the vehicle. It relates to a buffer that enables the connection to be made. Previous Tech 10 Bumpers made of plastic have markings used for distance control. Sensors are located in the area. These sensors are mounted on brackets on the front bumper. It is attached to its shell. Sensors aging over time, dynamic movements, It should not be dislodged in any way despite all factors such as vibration and 15 It needs to maintain its function. For this, the technique used in the previous method is employed. The sensor bracket is fixed to the bumper housing by welding, then the sensor is attached to the bracket. The connection is established by fixing it in place. The US is used in this connection. Increased part costs due to welding machine investment and welding operation This is the reason. Therefore, the competition in the automotive sector today is quite remarkable. a solution that will eliminate machine investment and unit cost increase when purchased It is needed. Chinese patent CN204750037U, which is included in the known state of the art. document 25 that enables the installation of parking sensors on vehicle bumpers The bracket system is being discussed. This is the subject of the patent document. The invention includes a mounting bracket for mounting a rear-view radar to the rear bumper of a vehicle. It offers. A positioning hole has been drilled in the rear bumper, and the mounting bracket, a connector used to secure at least two positioning holes on it It includes a mounting plate with a hole. The mounting plate, mounting component and 30 It is mounted to the rear bumper via mounting holes. Additionally, to the mounting plate... 2 It has a fixed radar mounting panel, and the rearview radar is mounted on this panel. There are multiple mounting holes used for this purpose. This model has a rear view camera. It allows for more precise mounting of the radar and makes the replacement process easier. It makes it so. Brief Description of the Invention The purpose of this invention is to design sensor brackets to which parking distance control sensors are mounted. Its clip-on structure allows it to be attached to the holes in the bumper shell. It is to create a buffer. 10 Detailed Description of the Invention In order to achieve the purpose of this invention, "A Buffer" is attached in the following forms. shown are these figures; 15 Figure 1. Front perspective view of a bumper, which is the subject of the invention. Figure 2 shows the appearance of detail B in Figure 1. Figure 3. Rear view of detail B in Figure 1. Figure 4. View of the BB section in Figure 3. 20 The parts shown in the figures are individually numbered, and these numbers... The equivalents are given below: 1. Tampon 25 2. Shell 3rd Hole 4. Nails 5. Sensor bracket 6. Extension 30 7. Projection 3 Parking distance control sensor brackets are fixed with a mechanical connection. an invention that enables a buffer (1), -having at least one hole (3) on it used for connection and fixed At least one buffer shell (2) containing a nail (4), -a parking distance sensor is mounted on it, and the sensor is located on the front bumper 5 at least one sensor bracket (5) that enables it to be fixed to its shell (2) - at least one located on the sensor bracket (5) and attached to the fixed tab (4) extension (6) and - after the extension (6) is attached to the fixed tab (4) the sensor bracket (5) By rotating it, the sensor bracket (5) fits into the hole (3) in the bumper shell (2). It includes at least one protrusion (7) which enables it to be fixed to the bumper shell (2). The subject of the invention is the sensor brackets (5) on the shell (2) located in the bumper (1) It contains multiple holes (3) and tabs (4) used for attachment. The sensor bracket (5) extension is fitted onto the fixed tab (4) on the shell (2) and 15 By rotating the sensor bracket (5), the protruding (7) enters the hole (3) and the sensor is placed on it. It ensures the fixation of the bracket (5). The subject of the invention is the sensor bracket (5) located in the bumper (1) with its extension (6) and It is fixed to the shell (2) by mechanical connection via the protrusion (6). For this purpose, 20 First, the sensor bracket (5) extension (6) is threaded onto the tab (4), then the shell (2) by rotating it and passing the protrusion (7) through the holes (3) on the shell (2) Mounting to the shell (2) is completed. The tabs on the sensor bracket (5) It has a flexible structure. Thanks to this, the protruding (7) bracket is rotated into the hole (3) By inserting it, it ensures that the sensor bracket (5) is fixed on the shell (2). 25 The subject of the invention is the bumper (1) which is connected to the shell (2) by a mechanical connection. Thanks to the sensor bracket (5), the use of US power supply is eliminated. Therefore, automotive manufacturing companies need to invest in welding machines and welding equipment. This eliminates the need for increased parts costs due to the operation, making it easy and fast. 30 A sensor bracket (5) is installed. 4 Around these basic concepts, there are many different things related to the invention subject “A Buffer (1)”. It is possible to develop applications, and the invention is illustrated with the examples described here. It cannot be restricted, it is essentially as stated in the claims.
