[0036] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are merely schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the illustrations only show components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape, and size of components in actual implementation.

[0037] With the development of the economy and the popularization of automobiles, more and more people choose to travel and play by car. As people's demand for automobiles increases, higher requirements are put forward for vehicle production efficiency and automobile assembly efficiency. Headlights are an important factor affecting automobile manufacturing cost, assembly efficiency, use effect and overall appearance. When assembling headlights, the lamps need to be installed on the bumper or frame with the help of mounting brackets. However, the locking mechanism of headlights is often locked in three directions including the light emitting direction, horizontal direction and vertical direction of the headlights, and the locking mechanism is different for different assembly positions of the headlights. For different installation positions, the headlight installation mechanism needs to be adjusted. This will result in repeated modifications to the structure or position of the locking mechanism, leading to an extension of the project development cycle and an increase in development costs, which will increase the manufacturing cost of the car and the user's car use cost.

[0038] A headlight mounting bracket is provided. The bracket can simplify the locking mechanism of the headlight, adapt to the assembly requirements of different positions, effectively improve assembly efficiency, thereby reducing development and manufacturing costs, and improve the installation convenience of large-sized front combination lights. It avoids part changes caused by adjustments to the lamp assembly process, thereby reducing the cost of subsequent lamp mold modification.

[0039] In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a headlight mounting bracket, including a main body 100, wherein the main body 100 includes a first locking assembly 10, a second locking assembly 20 and a positioning assembly 30, the first locking assembly 10 includes a plurality of first mounting ears 11 extending in a vertical direction, the first mounting ears 11 are provided with at least one first locking point 111 opened along the light-emitting direction of the headlight, and the plurality of first mounting ears 11 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the main body 100; the second locking assembly 20 includes a plurality of second mounting ears 21 extending in the light-emitting direction of the headlight, the second mounting ears 21 are provided with at least one second locking point 211 opened along the vertical direction, and the plurality of second mounting ears 21 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the main body 100; the positioning assembly 30 includes a first positioning member 31 and a second positioning member 32, the first positioning member 31 is provided on at least one of the first mounting ears 11, and the second positioning member 32 is provided on at least one of the second mounting ears 21.

[0040] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a first locking assembly 10 is directly provided on the main body 100, comprising a plurality of first mounting ears 11 provided along the circumference of the main body 100. The first locking points on the first mounting ears 11 limit the displacement of the main body 100 relative to the mounting member along the light emission direction of the vehicle lamp. The first positioning members 31 provided on the first mounting ears 11 not only improve the positioning effect of the first locking points 111, but also limit the displacement of the main body 100 relative to the mounting member in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0041] In addition, by directly setting a second locking assembly 20 on the main body 100, including multiple second mounting ears 21 arranged along the circumference of the main body 100, the second locking point on the second mounting ear 21 is used to limit the vertical displacement of the main body 100 relative to the mounting part, and the second positioning member 32 set on the second mounting ear 21 is used to improve the positioning effect of the second locking point 211 on the one hand, and on the other hand, the first positioning member 31 is used to limit the displacement of the main body 100 relative to the mounting part in the horizontal direction and along the light output direction of the vehicle lamp, thereby effectively improving the assembly efficiency and achieving the effect of locking in three directions at the same time. The multiple first locking points 111 and the multiple second locking points 211 are used to adapt to the installation requirements of different positions, thereby improving the overall assembly requirements and reducing development costs and manufacturing costs.

[0042] The part to be installed may be the vehicle frame 300 or the bumper 200. Different first locking points 111 and second locking points 211 may be used for assembly in response to different installation positions to meet different usage requirements.

[0043] In one embodiment, the first locking point 111 and the second locking point 211 can be locked by a combination of bolts, screw holes or nuts, or by using a concave-convex fitting clamping structure.

[0044] Furthermore, the multiple first mounting ears 11 include two first positioning ears 112 and two second positioning ears 113, and the main body 100 includes a first fixed edge 40 and a second fixed edge 50 extending along the light emitting direction of the vehicle lamp and arranged opposite to each other, and a third fixed edge 60 and a fourth fixed edge 70 extending along the vertical direction and arranged opposite to each other; a first positioning ear 112 is provided near the end position of each first fixed edge 40, and a second positioning ear 113 is provided near the end position of each second fixed edge 50, and the first positioning member 31 is provided on the first positioning ear 112 and the second positioning ear 113.

[0045] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the main body 100 is positioned by setting a first positioning ear 112 at the end of the first fixed edge 40 and a second positioning ear 113 at the end of the second fixed edge 50, thereby effectively improving the positioning effect of the main body 100, avoiding the first positioning member 31 from affecting the assembly effect of the middle area position of the main body 100, and reducing the interference of the positioning component 30 on the assembly position on the basis of effective positioning.

[0046] In one embodiment, the main body 100 is a frame structure, and the first fixed edge 40, the second fixed edge 50, the third fixed edge 60, and the fourth fixed edge 70 form an installation frame that can fix the headlight. The light emitting direction of the headlight is toward the outside, and the backlight direction of the headlight faces the frame 300 or the bumper 200.

[0047] In one embodiment, different installation positions can be selected by changing the assembly direction. For example, when the main body 100 is assembled with the component to be assembled, the first locking point 111 on the multiple first mounting ears 11 located on the second fixed edge 50 in the middle of the two second positioning ears 113 can be locked along the light-emitting direction, or the first locking point 111 can be set to be locked along the backlight direction to adapt to different assembly requirements.

[0048] Furthermore, in the horizontal direction, the first positioning ears 112 and the second positioning ears 113 are staggered. Thus, the positioning effects of the first positioning ears 112 and the second positioning ears 113 can be reasonably arranged to improve the overall positioning effect of the positioning assembly 30.

[0049] Furthermore, the first positioning member 31 includes a positioning post 312 extending in the direction of light emission from the headlight. The positioning post 312 is provided on the first positioning ear 112 and the second positioning ear 113. By providing the fixing edges near the ends of the first fixing edge 40 and the second fixing edge 50, the overall frame of the main body 100 is positioned, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the first locking point 111 of the first mounting ear 11 and the second locking point 211 of the second mounting ear 21 in the central region.

[0050] Furthermore, the second positioning ear 113 is provided with two first locking points 111, which are respectively provided on either side of the positioning post 312. Furthermore, through the two first locking points 111, one first locking point 111 on the second positioning ear 113 can be used to assemble with one part to be assembled, and the other first locking point 111 can be used to assemble with another part to be assembled, thereby facilitating assembly at different installation locations and reducing development costs.

[0051] Furthermore, the first positioning member 31 includes a first positioning hole 311, and the plurality of first mounting ears 11 include a first assembly ear 114 located in the middle of the main body 100. The first assembly ear 114 is provided with a first locking point 111 and a first positioning hole 311. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the main body 100 is positioned and locked in the light-emitting direction of the vehicle lamp by the first assembly ear 114 at the middle part of the main body 100, thereby improving the locking effect between the main body 100 and the part to be installed. At the same time, since the first assembly ear 114 is provided with a first positioning hole 311, the first positioning hole 311 is adapted to the positioning protrusion on the part to be installed, thereby reducing the interference between the main body 100 and other parts to be assembled, and further improving the efficiency of the first assembly ear 114 in the assembly process and reducing the development cost.

[0052] Furthermore, the second positioning member 32 includes a positioning groove 321. Among the plurality of second mounting ears 21, there is a second assembly ear 212 located in the middle of the main body 100. The second assembly ear 212 is provided with a second locking point 211 and a positioning groove 321. The positioning groove 321 has an opening, the opening facing the backlight surface of the headlight, and the cross section of the positioning groove 321 is U-shaped. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the second assembly ear 212 further limits the vertical position of the main body 100 relative to the assembly part. At the same time, since a positioning groove 321 is provided on the second assembly ear 212, the U-shaped positioning groove 321 can further limit the horizontal position of the main body 100 relative to the assembly part.

[0053] In one embodiment, during the assembly process, it can cooperate with the limiting column (not marked in the figure) of the part to be installed in the vertical direction. The limiting column is fixed in the positioning groove 321 through the opening limit, thereby fixing the relative position of the main body 100 and the part to be installed in the horizontal direction.

[0054] Furthermore, the second positioning member 32 also includes a second positioning hole 322, and the multiple second mounting ears 21 have two third positioning ears 213. The two third positioning ears 213 are respectively arranged on the third fixed edge 60 and the fourth fixed edge 70, and the third positioning ear 213 is provided with a second locking point 211 and a second positioning hole 322.

[0055] Secondly, an embodiment of the present application provides a bumper assembly, including a headlight mounting bracket and a bumper 200, wherein the bumper 200 has multiple first positioning points 201 that cooperate with the first locking point 111 and second positioning points 202 that cooperate with the second locking point 211, the multiple first positioning points 201 correspond one-to-one with the multiple first locking points 111, and the multiple second positioning points 202 correspond one-to-one with the multiple second locking points 211.

[0056] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, by assembling and cooperating between the first locking point 111 on the first locking assembly and the first positioning point 201 on the bumper 200, the main body 100 of the lamp mounting bracket and the bumper 200 can be relatively fixed along the light emitting direction of the lamp.

[0057] By assembling and cooperating between the second locking point 211 on the second locking assembly and the second positioning point 202 on the bumper 200 , the main body 100 of the vehicle lamp mounting bracket and the bumper 200 can be fixed relative to each other in the vertical direction.

[0058] During the assembly process of the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200, a limiting column (not marked in the figure) extending in the vertical direction can be set at a position corresponding to the positioning groove 321 in the middle of the bumper 200. The limiting column is fixed in the positioning groove 321 through the opening limit, thereby fixing the relative displacement of the main body 100 of the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200 in the horizontal direction.

[0059] In another embodiment, a margin can be set for the first locking point 111 and the second locking point 211 as needed, and the number and position of the first positioning points 201 and the second positioning points 202 on the actual bumper 200 can enable each first positioning point 201 to cooperate with the first locking point 111, and each second positioning point 202 to cooperate with the second locking point 211 to adapt to different installation requirements.

[0060] On the third aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, including a bumper assembly and a frame 300, wherein the frame 300 is provided with multiple first assembly points 301 and multiple second assembly points 302, wherein the multiple first assembly points 301 correspond one-to-one to the multiple first positioning points 201, and the multiple second assembly points 302 correspond one-to-one to the multiple second positioning points 202.

[0061] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, after the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200 are assembled, the bumper assembly can be assembled and fixed by using the first positioning point 201 shared by the first assembly point 301 and the first locking point 111, and the second positioning point 202 shared by the second assembly point 302 and the second locking point 211. According to actual use needs, the shared first positioning point 201 or the second positioning point 202 can be selected to adapt to different uses and assembly needs.

[0062] In a specific usage scenario: refer to Figures 1-6 As shown:

[0063] Attachment Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be represented as a structure for controlling the gap between the front through-type combination lamp of the vehicle, including the first mounting ear 11 and the second mounting ear 21, the first locking assembly 10, the second locking assembly 20, the positioning assembly 30 (first positioning hole 311, second positioning hole 322, positioning column 312, positioning groove 321), the first locking point 111 and the second locking point 211, and the front bumper 200;

[0064] A front bumper assembly for an automobile includes a bumper 200, a first positioning point 201, and a second positioning point 202;

[0065] A front-end frame of an automobile includes a lamp mounting bracket, a vehicle frame 300, a first assembly point 301, and a second assembly point 302, forming an installation and positioning system compatible with the general and sub-assembly solutions of front through-combination lamps.

[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, the two first locking points of the second positioning ear 113 close to the two ends of the second fixed edge 50 are the locking points on the frame 300 from the backlight direction during the final assembly scheme;

[0067] The first locking point 111 on the first positioning ear 112, the two first locking points of the second positioning ear 113 away from the two ends of the second fixing edge 50, and the first locking point 111 on the first assembly ear 114 are the locking points for the lamp mounting bracket to be attached to the front bumper 200 during subassembly. The four positioning posts 312 on the first positioning ear 112 and the second positioning ear 113 are the positioning points for the lamp mounting bracket to be attached to the front bumper 200 during subassembly.

[0068] The first locking point 111 between the first assembly ear 114 and the second positioning ear 113 is a locking point in the light-emitting direction during subassembly, or a locking point in the backlight direction during final assembly. The first locking point 111 between the first assembly ear 114 and the second positioning ear 113 is a shared locking point when the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200 are subassembled or when the bumper assembly and the frame 300 are final assembled.

[0069] like Figure 2 As shown, the second locking points 211 on the second mounting ears 21 on both sides of the second assembly ears 212 are vertically locked mounting points. They are shared mounting points for both the subassembly of the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200, and the final assembly of the bumper assembly and the vehicle frame 300. The mounting directions and mounting boundaries are consistent, making them fully shared mounting points. The second positioning holes 322 and positioning grooves 321 are shared positioning structures for both the subassembly of the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200, and the final assembly of the bumper assembly and the vehicle frame 300.

[0070] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, the first positioning point 201 can be used to directly lock the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200 when they are assembled separately, and the positioning is performed through the first locking point 111 and the positioning column 312 corresponding to the second positioning ear 113. Finally, the headlight and the front bumper are assembled into a large assembly and installed on the whole vehicle. The second positioning point 202 can be used to conveniently install the bumper assembly after the headlight mounting bracket and the bumper 200 are assembled to the locking point on the vehicle body. The positioning groove 321 on the second assembly ear 212 can facilitate the installation of the bumper assembly on the frame 300 to limit the horizontal displacement of the bumper assembly and the frame 300. The second positioning point 202 corresponding to the third positioning ear 213 is a limiting hole for the light emitting direction of the headlight and bumper assembly and the frame 300.

[0071] like Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the first assembly point 301 and the second assembly point 302 are locking points of the bumper assembly on the frame 300. The frame 300 also includes a horizontal limiting hole arranged opposite to the positioning groove 321. At the position corresponding to the three positioning ears, the frame 300 also includes a second positioning point 202 arranged corresponding to the second positioning hole 322. Here, the second positioning point 202 can be set as a limiting hole.

[0072] This case relies on the special matching structure of the lamp and sheet metal bracket, bumper, and front-end frame. The main installation points and positioning mechanisms are shared by the lamp assembly plan and the sub-assembly plan. The locking directions of all installation point standards only include the light output direction (X-axis) and the vertical direction (Z-axis). Both the lamp assembly and sub-assembly plans choose X-axis assembly. Therefore, the final 3D data of the lamp has only one data state, and the part mold opening also has only one state. When the lamp assembly and sub-assembly plans are switched later, the lamp itself does not make any design changes. This largely solves the problem of large-scale mold modifications caused by changes in the assembly process in the later stage of selecting the assembly or sub-assembly plan, saving development time and development costs.

[0073] It is understandable that the automobile in the embodiments of the present application can be any vehicle with mobility capabilities, including vehicles with automatic driving or intelligent driving, such as passenger vehicles (sedans, buses, coaches, minibuses, etc.), cargo vehicles (ordinary trucks, vans, special vehicles (logistics delivery vehicles, patrol cars), vehicles with entertainment functions, rescue vehicles (such as fire trucks, ambulances), etc.
