Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more specifically, to a laser radar installation structure and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the development of autonomous driving technology, more possibilities can be given to vehicles. Autonomous driving technology requires vehicles to be equipped with laser radars, and use laser radars to sense the surrounding environment to avoid obstacles and adjust the driving route. However, the current mainstream uses a glass roof connected to the laser radar and the laser radar cover. The laser radar needs to be arranged at the front end of the vehicle's roof, causing the laser radar to protrude too high, increasing the windward area of ​​the car and causing the car's resistance to increase, which affects the appearance. At the same time, the wind noise will increase when the car is driving at high speed. Summary of the invention

[0004] The laser radar mounting structure of the embodiment of the present application is used for a vehicle, and the laser radar mounting structure includes a top cover outer panel, a mounting bracket and a crossbeam assembly. The mounting bracket is used to install the laser radar. The top cover outer panel is provided with a through hole, and the top cover outer panel is covered on the crossbeam assembly.

[0006] In some embodiments, the top cover outer plate is formed with a concave platform structure, the through hole is arranged in the concave platform structure, the mounting bracket is accommodated in the concave platform structure and connected to the crossbeam assembly. In this way, the concave platform structure can be recessed downwards by a distance relative to the top cover outer plate, and the mounting bracket can be arranged in the concave platform structure, so that the laser radar is lowered in the height direction, the windward area of ​​the laser radar installation structure is reduced, the wind noise is reduced, and the aesthetic appearance is ensured.

[0007] In some embodiments, the laser radar mounting structure further includes a cover plate, which is arranged on the mounting bracket and the laser radar and is connected to the concave platform structure. In this way, after the mounting bracket and the laser radar are installed on the crossbeam assembly, the mounting bracket and the laser radar can be covered by the cover plate, and the cover plate can be connected to the concave platform structure to ensure that the top surface of the vehicle is flat. At the same time, the cover plate can form a housing space with the crossbeam assembly, and the housing space can be a sealed space for accommodating the mounting bracket and the laser radar and playing a role in waterproofing and dustproofing.

[0008] In some embodiments, the concave platform structure is formed with a sunken platform surface, and the cover plate is sealed and connected to the sunken platform surface. In this way, the sunken platform surface can be closely attached to the lower surface of the cover plate to prevent water leakage.

[0009] In some embodiments, the crossbeam assembly further includes a crossbeam upper plate, a reinforcement, and a crossbeam lower plate, which are sequentially arranged, and the roof outer plate is arranged on the crossbeam upper plate.

[0010] In some embodiments, the top cover outer plate is formed by stamping. In this way, the top cover outer plate can be formed by stamping, which improves the flatness of the top cover outer plate. At the same time, the concave platform structure formed by stamping also has higher flatness, making it easier for the concave platform structure to fit and connect with the mounting bracket and the cover plate.

[0011] In some embodiments, a secondary slope step and a wrinkle suction structure are formed in the concave platform structure. In this way, the secondary slope step and the wrinkle suction structure can prevent cracking and wrinkling problems that may occur during the stamping process, improve the strength of the top cover outer plate, so that the top cover outer plate can be further reduced in thickness and ensure the smoothness of the outer surface of the top cover outer plate, and at the same time, the depth of the concave platform structure can be increased to ensure the depth requirement of the sealing foam or glass glue on the cover plate.

[0012] In some embodiments, the edge of the concave platform structure is formed with a rounded structure, and the rounded structure is spheroidized and enlarged.

In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the parts and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application. In addition, the present application can repeat reference numbers and / or reference letters in different examples, and this repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, which itself does not indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, the various specific processes and examples of materials provided in the present application, but those of ordinary skill in the art can be aware of the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0037] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The laser radar mounting structure 100 of the embodiment of the present application is used for a vehicle 200. The laser radar mounting structure 100 includes a top cover outer panel 33, a mounting bracket 10 and a cross beam assembly 30. The mounting bracket 10 is used to mount the laser radar 20. A through hole 31 is provided on the top cover outer panel 33. The top cover outer panel 33 is covered on the cross beam assembly 30. The mounting bracket 10 is at least partially passed through the through hole 31 and is connected to the cross beam assembly 30.

[0038] In the laser radar installation structure 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the laser radar installation structure 100 is used for the vehicle 200. The laser radar installation structure 100 includes a top cover outer panel 33, a mounting bracket 10 and a cross beam assembly 30. The mounting bracket 10 is used to install the laser radar 20. The top cover outer panel 33 is provided with a through hole 31. The top cover outer panel 33 is covered on the cross beam assembly 30. The mounting bracket 10 is at least partially penetrated in the through hole 31 and connected to the cross beam assembly 30. In this way, the laser radar 20 can be set on the cross beam assembly 30 through the mounting bracket 10, and the mounting bracket 10 is partially penetrated in the through hole 31, so that the height of the laser radar 20 relative to the top cover outer panel 33 can be reduced, thereby reducing the problem of the laser radar 20 being too protruding.

[0039] It is understandable that the laser radar 20 needs to be set at the top cover outer panel 33 of the vehicle 200 to have a better perspective to observe the environment and obstacles in front of the vehicle 200 and maximize the role of the laser radar 20. At the same time, the laser radar 20 needs to protrude upward from the top cover outer panel 33 to further increase the detection range of the laser radar 20. However, when the vehicle 200 is moving forward, the laser radar 20 protrudes too high, causing the windward area of ​​the vehicle 200 to increase, and the wind noise will increase when the vehicle 200 is driving at high speed.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, a through hole 31 can be provided on the top cover outer plate 33. After the mounting bracket 10 is assembled with the laser radar 20, the mounting bracket 10 is partially extended into the through hole 31, and then the mounting bracket 10 and the beam assembly 30 are connected together to ensure that the laser radar 20 can work stably. The lower half of the mounting bracket 10 can be extended into the through hole 31, and the mounting bracket 10 can be connected to the beam assembly 30 by bolts, and the entire laser radar 20 can be protruded above the top cover outer plate 33.

[0041] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the top cover outer plate 33 is formed with a concave structure 32 , the through hole 31 is arranged in the concave structure 32 , and the mounting bracket 10 is accommodated in the concave structure 32 and connected to the beam assembly 30 .

[0042] In this way, the recessed platform structure 32 can be recessed downward by a certain distance relative to the top cover outer panel 33, and the mounting bracket 10 can be set in the recessed platform structure 32, so that the laser radar 20 is lowered in the height direction, reducing the windward area of ​​the laser radar mounting structure 100, reducing wind noise and ensuring the aesthetic appearance.

[0043] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the laser radar mounting structure 100 further includes a cover plate 40 , which is disposed on the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 and is closely connected to the recessed platform structure 32 .

[0044] In this way, after the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 are mounted on the cross beam assembly 30, the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 can be covered by the cover plate 40, and the cover plate 40 can be connected with the concave platform structure 32 to ensure that the top surface of the vehicle 200 is flat. At the same time, the cover plate 40 can form a containing space with the cross beam assembly 30, and the containing space can be a sealed space for containing the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 and playing a role of waterproof and dustproof.

[0045] Specifically, in the actual assembly process, the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 can be assembled together first, and then the cover plate 40 can be connected to the mounting bracket 10, and finally the whole structure can be installed on the beam assembly 30 through the through hole 31. Of course, in some embodiments, the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 can also be installed on the beam assembly 30 first, and then the cover plate 40 can be installed and buckled with the beam assembly 30.

[0046] See also Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the concave platform structure 32 is formed with a sunken platform surface 321, and the cover plate 40 is sealed and connected to the sunken platform surface 321. In this way, the sunken platform surface 321 can be closely attached to the lower surface of the cover plate 40 to prevent water leakage.

[0047] Specifically, the cover plate 40 may include a accommodating portion and a planar portion (neither of which is marked in the figure), the accommodating portion may protrude upward relative to the planar portion, and the planar portion may be tightly connected to the countertop surface 321. At this time, the accommodating portion may cooperate with the concave platform structure 32 to form an accommodating space, and the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 may be arranged in the accommodating space.

[0048] Furthermore, the sinking table 321 is arranged in the concave table structure 32, and the sinking table 321 can be a U-shaped structure. When the cover plate 40 is connected to the crossbeam assembly 30, a sealing foam or glass glue can be arranged on one side of the plane portion close to the top cover outer plate 33. The cover plate 40 is tightly connected to the sinking table 321 through the sealing foam or glass glue to avoid water leakage, so that the accommodating space has better sealing. The width of the sinking table 321 needs to meet the width requirements of the sealing foam or glass glue on the cover plate 40, ensuring the connection while preventing the sealing foam or glass glue from penetrating into the accommodating space or being squeezed out of the cover plate 40 and the top cover outer plate 33.

[0049] See also Figures 7 to 9 In some embodiments, the crossbeam assembly 30 further includes a crossbeam upper plate 35 , a reinforcement 37 , and a crossbeam lower plate 34 which are arranged in sequence, and the top cover outer plate 33 is covered on the crossbeam upper plate 35 .

[0050] In this way, the crossbeam lower plate 34, the reinforcement 37 and the crossbeam upper plate 35 can support and strengthen the top cover outer plate 33, thereby ensuring the strength of the entire roof. The laser radar 20 and the mounting bracket 10 can be arranged on the crossbeam upper plate 35 or the top cover outer plate 33. The crossbeam lower plate 34 and the crossbeam upper plate 35 can directly or indirectly support the laser radar 20 and the mounting bracket 10 to ensure the stability of the use of the laser radar 20.

[0051] Specifically, the upper surface of the plane portion can be flush with the upper surface of the roof outer panel 33 to ensure the flatness of the roof. Because the roof outer panel 33 is relatively thin, in order to prevent the deformation of the roof outer panel 33 that may occur after the assembly of the supporting laser radar 20 and the mounting bracket 10, resulting in size matching and sealing problems, a crossbeam upper plate 35 and a crossbeam lower plate 34 can be set on the lower side of the roof outer panel 33. In some embodiments, the crossbeam assembly 30 can also include a sunroof reinforcement plate 38, which can cooperate with the crossbeam upper plate 35 and the crossbeam lower plate 34 to support the roof outer panel 33. The top cover outer panel 33 may include a fitting surface 334 and a non-fitting surface (not marked in the figure). The fitting surface 334 may be fixedly connected to the sunroof reinforcement plate 38 and the crossbeam upper plate 35, and the non-fitting surface does not contact the sunroof reinforcement plate 38 and the crossbeam upper plate 35. A sink feature 354 may be provided at the position of the sunroof reinforcement plate 38 and the crossbeam upper plate 35 corresponding to the non-fitting surface to avoid contact with the top cover outer panel 33. In this way, size matching and abnormal noise problems caused by large-area fitting can be prevented.

[0052] Further, the reinforcement 37 can be connected to the lower plate 34 of the cross beam by installing the buckle 371 to fill the cavity between the cross beam assembly 30 to improve the dynamic stiffness of the cross beam assembly 30. In the embodiment of the present application, the material and type of the reinforcement 37 are not limited, and the reinforcement 37 can be a CBS (composite body solutions) reinforcement to meet different needs. It can be understood that the upper plate 35 of the cross beam and the lower plate 34 of the cross beam are connected together by spot welding, and the upper plate 35 of the cross beam and the lower plate 34 of the cross beam are not tightly fitted together, and the gap between the upper plate 35 of the cross beam and the lower plate 34 of the cross beam will form a cavity. Therefore, after the laser radar 20 and the mounting bracket 10 of the embodiment of the present application are fixed to the upper plate 35 of the cross beam, the stiffness and mode of the cross beam assembly 30 will be re-proposed to avoid the problem of relative shaking between the upper plate 35 of the cross beam and the lower plate 34 of the cross beam after the upper plate 35 of the cross beam is connected to the mounting bracket 10, and also avoid resonance affecting the normal operation of the laser radar 20. Therefore, adding a reinforcement 37 between the upper crossbeam plate 35 and the lower crossbeam plate 34 can effectively increase the stability of the entire crossbeam assembly 30, thereby improving the installation stability of the laser radar 20. In addition, during the assembly process, the reinforcement 37 can be first fixed to the lower crossbeam plate 34 by installing the buckle 371, and then the upper crossbeam plate 35 and the lower crossbeam plate 34 are welded together, and the reinforcement 37 can be filled in the cavity. At this time, the reinforcement 37 can fit tightly with the upper crossbeam plate 35 and the lower crossbeam plate 34, so that the entire crossbeam assembly 30 has higher dynamic stiffness.

[0053] Please combine Figure 6 , Fig.10 and Fig.11In the embodiment of the present application, the connection method of the fitting surface 334 with the sunroof reinforcement plate 38 and the crossbeam upper plate 35 is not limited to meet different needs. For example, the fitting surface 334 can be connected to the sunroof reinforcement plate 38 and the crossbeam upper plate 35 by spot welding and structural adhesive 336, and the fitting surface 334 can also be connected to the sunroof reinforcement plate 38 and the crossbeam upper plate 35 by other connection methods such as laser brazing. Among them, welding points 335 can be prepared on the lower side of the top cover outer plate 33, welding clamp through holes can be opened at the corresponding position of the top cover outer plate 33, and welding clamp avoidance structure 351 can be prepared on the crossbeam upper plate 35. And a leakage hole can be designed on the top cover outer plate 33 to prevent the problem of accumulated liquid from being unable to be drained in the area of ​​the welding clamp avoidance structure 351. In addition, a concave platform feature 352 can be prepared on the crossbeam upper plate 35, and a structural hole 353 for connecting with the mounting bracket 10 can be prepared on the side of the concave platform feature 352 close to the top cover outer plate 33. In the implementation manner of the present application, the specific form of the structural hole 353 is not limited. Screws or bolts can be prepared on the structural hole 353, or the structural hole 353 can be directly prepared as a threaded hole and then connected to the mounting bracket 10 by a threaded connection to meet various needs.

[0054] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, the top cover outer panel 33 is formed by stamping.

[0055] In this way, the top cover outer panel 33 can be formed by stamping, which improves the flatness of the top cover outer panel 33. At the same time, the concave platform structure 32 formed by stamping also has higher flatness, making it easier for the concave platform structure 32 to fit and connect with the mounting bracket 10 and the cover plate 40.

[0056] See also Figure 4 and Fig.12 In some embodiments, a secondary inclined step 322 and a wrinkle structure 323 are formed in the concave platform structure 32 .

[0057] In this way, the secondary inclined step 322 and the wrinkle suction structure 323 can prevent cracking and wrinkling problems that may occur during the stamping process, improve the strength of the top cover outer panel 33, and make the top cover outer panel 33 further reduce the thickness and ensure the smoothness of the outer surface of the top cover outer panel 33. At the same time, the depth of the concave platform structure 32 can be increased to ensure the depth requirement of the sealing foam or glass glue sealing on the cover plate 40.

[0058] For further information, see Figure 4 In some embodiments, a rounded structure 234 is formed at the edge of the concave platform structure 32, and the rounded structure 234 is spheroidized and enlarged.

[0059] Thus, forming the rounded corner structure 234 on the edge of the concave platform structure 32 can avoid cracking caused by stress concentration during the stamping process.

[0060] Specifically, the top cover outer plate 33 can be made of sheet metal material, which has good structural strength while ensuring a thin thickness. In order to ensure the thin thickness of the top cover outer plate 33 and the high quality requirements of the outer surface, the stamping difficulty is increased. Adding the secondary inclined step 322 and the wrinkle suction structure 323 and the rounded corner structure 234 can effectively reduce stress concentration and improve the modeling strength of the concave platform structure 32. At the same time, in order to solve the problem of poor electrophoresis of the upper beam plate 35 and the lower beam plate 34, an electrophoresis hole 341 is set at the front end of the lower beam plate 34.

[0061] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the top cover outer plate 33 may also include a connection hole 331, a buckle installation hole 332, and a positioning hole 333 to position and connect the cover plate 40, ensuring that the top cover outer plate 33 can be stably connected to the cover plate 40. The top cover outer plate 33 and the cover plate 40 may be connected by buckles or by threads, and of course, they may also be connected by both buckles and threads to ensure the connection stability of the cover plate 40 and the top cover outer plate 33.

[0062] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the cross beam assembly 30 is provided with a harness hole 36 for the harness 21 of the laser radar 20 to pass through, and the harness hole 36 and the laser radar 20 are distributed along the width direction of the vehicle 200 .

[0063] In this way, the harness hole 36 can be set on the side of the through hole 31, and the harness 21 of the laser radar 20 can extend along the width direction of the vehicle 200 and enter the interior of the vehicle 200 through the harness hole 36 on the side, thereby reducing the occupancy in the length direction of the vehicle 200, and then increasing the space in the sunroof area.

[0064] Specifically, the wire harness 21 of the laser radar 20 may first pass through the through hole 31, and then pass through the entire cross beam assembly 30 through the wire harness hole 36. The laser radar 20 may be connected to the control system of the vehicle 200 through the wire harness 21 to transmit the information detected by the laser radar 20 to the control system of the vehicle 200. The wire harness hole 36 may be distributed with the through hole 31 along the width direction of the vehicle 200 to reduce the space occupied in the length direction of the vehicle 200 and increase the space of the sunroof area.

[0065] Please combine Figure 4 , the harness hole 36 and the via hole 31 are the same hole, and the harness hole 36 is located on the side of the via hole 31. Figure 5, it is necessary to install the mounting bracket 10 in the through hole 31, and the mounting bracket 10 and the concave platform structure 32 cooperate to form the harness hole 36. In some embodiments, the harness hole 36 of the top cover outer panel 33 and the through hole 31 can be formed by stamping at the same time, and a flanging structure 361 can be provided on the side of the through hole 31 close to the harness hole 36. On the one hand, the flanging structure 361 can prevent the sheet metal from cutting the harness 21, and the connector of the laser radar 20 is arranged on the side of the through hole 31, and on the other hand, it can increase the strength of the concave platform structure 32. At the same time, it is necessary to prepare the harness hole 36 at the corresponding position of the upper plate 35 of the crossbeam and the lower plate 34 of the crossbeam to ensure that the harness 21 can directly pass through the entire crossbeam assembly 30 to connect the control system of the vehicle 200, and the size of the harness hole 36 meets the installation operation space requirements of the harness 21.

[0066] See also Fig.13 The vehicle 200 of the embodiment of the present application includes the laser radar mounting structure 100 of any one of the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0067] In the laser radar installation structure 100 and the vehicle 200 of the embodiment of the present application, the laser radar installation structure 100 is used for the vehicle 200, and the laser radar installation structure 100 includes a top cover outer panel 33, a mounting bracket 10 and a cross beam assembly 30, and the mounting bracket 10 is used to install the laser radar 20, and the top cover outer panel 33 is provided with a through hole 31, and the top cover outer panel 33 is covered on the cross beam assembly 30, and the mounting bracket 10 is at least partially penetrated in the through hole 31 and connected to the cross beam assembly 30. In this way, the laser radar 20 can be set on the cross beam assembly 30 through the mounting bracket 10, and the mounting bracket 10 is partially penetrated in the through hole 31, so that the height of the laser radar 20 relative to the top cover outer panel 33 can be reduced, thereby reducing the problem of the laser radar 20 being too protruding.

[0068] Specifically, during the assembly process, the wiring harness 21 can be first connected to the laser radar 20 through a plug-in connector, and then the mounting bracket 10, the laser radar 20 and the cover plate 40 are pre-assembled into a whole by bolts, and finally the mounting bracket 10, the laser radar 20, the cover plate 40 and the wiring harness 21 are assembled as a whole in the concave platform structure 32 of the top cover outer plate 33. The laser radar 20 can be fixedly installed on the top of the vehicle 200 by threading the projection welding nut on the mounting bracket 10 and the studs and buckles on the cover plate 40 with the crossbeam assembly 30.

[0069] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present application, the mounting bracket 10 is at least partially inserted into the through hole 31, that is, the highest plane of the mounting bracket 10 can be higher than the surface where the concave platform structure 32 is located, so that the entire mounting bracket 10 is inserted into the through hole 31, and the bottom of the mounting bracket 10 is below the plane where the concave platform structure 32 is located for connection with the crossbeam upper plate 35, and the top of the mounting bracket 10 is above the plane where the concave platform structure 32 is located for connection with the laser radar 20. Of course, in some embodiments, the mounting bracket 10 can be completely below the concave platform structure 32, that is, the highest plane of the mounting bracket 10 can be lower than the surface where the concave platform structure 32 is located, and the laser radar 20 can pass through the through hole 31 and be connected to the mounting bracket 10, so that the height of the laser radar 20 on the top cover outer plate 33 can be reduced as much as possible to reduce the problem of the laser radar 20 being too protruding.

[0070] In the implementation manner of the present application, the specific type of the vehicle 200 is not limited. The vehicle 200 can be an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle to meet different needs.
