Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0048] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.
[0049] The existing technology has the following disadvantages: The conventional front subframe is a frame structure, welded together from sheet metal parts. The front swing arm is connected to the subframe through the front swing arm mounting holes in the front swing arm bracket, which is welded together from the front swing arm bracket inner plate and the front swing arm bracket outer plate. The steering column is connected to the subframe through the steering column mounting holes in the steering column bracket, which is welded together from the steering column bracket inner plate, the steering column bracket outer plate, and a reinforcement plate. However, this structure is redundant, with numerous parts, all of which require welding. This leads to complex process steps and poor efficiency. During vehicle operation, the front swing arm bracket is subjected to uneven force. Furthermore, due to the large number of components in the front swing arm bracket, the connection may become unstable over long-term use, resulting in abnormal noise and affecting vehicle performance. Furthermore, the common front subframe layout is characterized by a Z-direction arrangement of the front stabilizer bar, mounted above the front subframe, and a Z-direction arrangement of the steering gear, mounted above the front subframe. This layout occupies a large space, results in a heavy front subframe, and is cumbersome to disassemble, hindering the placement of the active stabilizer bar motor.
[0050] In response to the defects of the prior art, the present invention arranges the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion on the same side, and the fourth connecting portion and the fifth connecting portion on the same side, so that the steering gear and the active stabilizer bar assembly are both arranged on the front side of the subframe assembly, which is also convenient for disassembly. The active stabilizer bar assembly and the steering gear can be disassembled separately without disassembling the subframe assembly, which saves after-sales maintenance time and costs; at the same time, the number of parts is reduced, and a lightweight design is achieved.
