[0024] When installing the above-mentioned automobile radar bracket, first install the radar 30 into the base 10, so that the first clamping block 31 of the radar 30 and the first clamping hole 12 of the base 10 are mutually engaged to limit the circumferential movement of the radar 30. The first clamping hole 12 extends in the vertical direction to adapt to the height of the first clamping block 31 of different types of radars 30, that is, at this time, the radar 30 still has space to move in the vertical direction. Then, the pressure cover 20 is installed on the base 10. At this time, the radar 30 is pressed tightly in the cavity 11 through the adjustment mechanism to limit the movement of the radar 30 in the vertical direction, so as to effectively fix the radar 30. The above-mentioned automobile radar bracket can effectively fix different types of radars 30 and then install them on the bumper, and has strong versatility.

[0025] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 1The adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment pad 40, which is arranged between the gland 20 and the radar 30, or between the base 10 and the radar 30. It should be noted that the adjustment pad 40 can be selected with different thicknesses according to different models of radars 30, and the number of the adjustment pad 40 is not limited, and can be one or more, as long as the radar 30 can be pressed tightly against the cavity 11 to limit the movement of the radar 30 in the vertical direction. During installation, the adjustment pad 40 can be placed on the inner bottom of the base 10 first, and then the radar 30 is installed in the base 10, and finally the gland 20 is installed on the base 10; the radar 30 can also be installed in the base 10 first, and then the adjustment pad 40 is placed on the radar 30, and finally the gland 20 is installed on the base 10; the adjustment pad 40 can also be placed on the upper and lower positions of the radar 30 placed in the base 10 to form a sandwich structure, and finally the gland 20 is installed on the base 10.

[0026] In another embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes a positioning cylinder 21 and a movable rod 50, the positioning cylinder 21 is embedded in the gland 20 along the vertical direction, and the movable rod 50 cooperates with the positioning cylinder 21 to achieve the positioning of the movable rod 50. During installation, the radar 30 is first installed in the base 10, and then the gland 20 is installed on the base 10, and then the movable rod 50 is pushed into the cavity 11 to press the radar 30 in the cavity 11. At the same time, the movable rod 50 is positioned under the action of the positioning cylinder 21.

[0027] Specifically, please combine Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the positioning cylinder 21 is a screw cylinder, and correspondingly, the movable rod 50 is a screw rod. Among them, the inner wall of the screw cylinder is provided with an internal thread, and the outer wall of the screw rod is provided with an external thread. The screw cylinder and the screw rod are threadedly connected to each other. When the radar 30 needs to be compressed, the screw rod can be screwed into the cavity 11 along the screw cylinder, thereby limiting the movement of the radar 30 in the vertical direction. Of course, there are many matching mechanisms between the positioning cylinder 21 and the movable rod 50, such as setting a plurality of clamping positions on the inner wall of the positioning cylinder 21 in the vertical direction, and a convex portion on the outer wall of the movable rod 50 that matches the clamping position. When the movable rod 50 is pushed into the cavity 11 until the radar 30 is compressed, the convex portion is clamped therein to clamp the position, thereby realizing the positioning of the movable rod 50.

[0028] Furthermore, please combine Figure 4 The screw barrel and the gland 20 are integrally formed, which can enhance the pressing force of the screw on the radar 30.

[0029] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 3 The adjusting mechanism further includes a nut 60, which cooperates with the screw rod. After the screw rod is screwed into the screw barrel and the radar 30 is pressed, the nut 60 is tightened, which can effectively prevent the screw rod from loosening from the screw barrel and causing the radar 30 to fail to be pressed, thereby improving the reliability of the automotive radar bracket.

[0030] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 1 , the base 10 is provided with a second clamping block 13, and the pressure cover 20 is provided with a second clamping hole 22 for matching with the second clamping block 13, so that the pressure cover 20 can be detachably mounted on the base 10; and\or, the base 10 is provided with a third clamping hole, and the pressure cover 20 is provided with a third clamping block for matching with the third clamping hole, so that the pressure cover 20 can be detachably mounted on the base 10. The above arrangement can make it more convenient to assemble and disassemble the pressure cover 20 and the base 10.

[0031] Specifically, the second clamping block 13 may be selected as an undercut or arc-shaped convex point, and similarly, the third clamping block may be selected as an undercut or arc-shaped convex point.

[0032] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 The base 10 is provided with a flange 14 along the circumferential direction, and a plurality of undercuts 15 are also provided on the base 10. A slot 151 for engaging with the bumper is formed between the flange 14 and the undercuts 15. The undercuts 15 are inclined toward the direction close to the bumper (i.e., the height of the undercuts 15 gradually decreases toward the bumper). When installing the above-mentioned automotive radar bracket on the bumper, the automotive radar bracket equipped with the radar 30 can be inserted into the mounting hole from the outside of the bumper lever (i.e., the side facing away from the vehicle body). During this process, the bumper panel enters the slot 151 along the inclined surface of the undercuts 15, and the installation is completed, which is very convenient.

[0033] In one embodiment, please combine Figure 2 , one end of the undercut 15 close to the flange 14 is in a stepped structure, and\or, the side of the flange 14 close to the undercut 15 is in a stepped structure. The above-mentioned stepped structure divides the above-mentioned slot 151 into a plurality of slots with different depths (with the radial direction of the base 10 as a reference) and widths (with the axial direction of the base 10 as a reference), and each slot corresponds to a bumper with a wall thickness, so that the above-mentioned automotive radar bracket can be applied to bumpers with various wall thicknesses, further improving the versatility of the above-mentioned automotive radar bracket. It is worth noting that when opening a mounting hole on the bumper, mounting holes with corresponding apertures are set according to slots of different depths, so that the above-mentioned automotive radar bracket matches the mounting hole.

[0034] In one embodiment, the undercuts 15 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the base 10. Specifically, four undercuts 15 are provided, and the four undercuts 15 are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the base 10, that is, one undercut 15 is provided at 90 degrees intervals on the circumference of the base 10.

[0035] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned automobile radar bracket further includes a buffer gasket 70, which is arranged between the gland 20 and the radar 30, or between the base 10 and the radar 30. The above-mentioned buffer gasket 70 can play a shock-absorbing role on the radar 30 to prevent the vibration generated during the driving of the car from causing damage to the radar 30. Specifically, the buffer gasket 70 can be selected as an EVA rubber gasket or a silicone gasket.

[0036] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
