DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be interpreted as limiting the present invention.

[0022] Embodiments of the present invention: Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, a front anti-collision structure of an automobile includes a main anti-collision beam 2, and a main energy absorption box 5 is fixedly provided at both ends of the main anti-collision beam 2. The two main energy absorption boxes 5 are respectively fixedly connected to the ends of the two front longitudinal beams 1. A secondary anti-collision beam 3 is provided at the bottom of the main anti-collision beam 2, and a secondary energy absorption box 6 is fixedly provided at both ends of the secondary anti-collision beam 3. The two secondary energy absorption boxes 6 are both fixedly connected to the front subframe 10. The two ends of the main anti-collision beam 2 are respectively connected to the two ends of the secondary anti-collision beam 3 through the main and secondary anti-collision beam connecting brackets 4.

[0023] By providing a main anti-collision beam 2 and an auxiliary anti-collision beam 3, the main anti-collision beam 2, the auxiliary anti-collision beam 3, the front longitudinal beam 1, and the front subframe 10 are linked to form an effective force transmission path, which effectively optimizes the force transmission path of the vehicle's frontal collision and improves the overall frontal collision performance of the vehicle.

[0024] By providing the main energy absorbing box 5 and the auxiliary energy absorbing box 6, the 25% offset collision performance of the vehicle front is improved.

[0025] In a specific implementation, one end of the main energy absorption box 5 is fixedly connected to the main anti-collision beam 2 by welding, and the other end of the main energy absorption box 5 is fixedly connected to the main energy absorption box fixing plate 8 by welding.

[0026] The end of the front longitudinal beam 1 is fixedly connected with a mounting plate 14 by welding, and the main energy absorption box fixing plate 8 is fixedly connected with the mounting plate 14 by a bolt assembly. The front longitudinal beam 1 is connected with the lower cross beam 12 of the front wall panel through a longitudinal beam connecting plate 13.

[0027] When a head-on collision occurs, the collision force is transmitted to the front longitudinal beam 1 through the main anti-collision beam 2 and the main energy absorption box 5, and part of the force is transmitted backward through the longitudinal beam connecting plate 13 and the lower cross beam 12 of the front panel, forming a first force transmission path.

[0028] Furthermore, one end of the auxiliary energy absorption box 6 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary anti-collision beam 3 by welding, and the other end of the auxiliary energy absorption box 6 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary energy absorption box fixing plate 7 by welding, and the auxiliary energy absorption box fixing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the main energy absorption box fixing plate 8 by welding. The end of the front subframe 10 is fixedly connected to the reinforcing cross beam 15 by welding, and the two auxiliary energy absorption boxes 6 are fixedly connected to the reinforcing cross beam 15 by a bolt assembly.

[0029] Connecting the auxiliary crash box fixing plate 7 and the main crash box fixing plate 8 together can effectively increase the collision contact area and induce the force transmission path to the front longitudinal beam 1 .

[0030] By designing the secondary anti-collision beam 3 and the secondary energy absorbing box 6, the transmission path of the induced force is transmitted to the front subframe 10, and the collision force is transmitted backward through the front subframe 10. The secondary anti-collision beam 3, the secondary energy absorbing box 6, and the front subframe 10 constitute a second force transmission path, and the front subframe 10 is designed as a deformable energy absorbing structure.

[0031] Furthermore, a front fixing box 9 is fixedly provided at the connection position between the front subframe 10 and the auxiliary energy absorption box 6, the lower end of the front fixing box 9 is fixedly connected to the front subframe 10 by bolts, the upper end of the front fixing box 9 is fixedly connected to the upper side beam 11 by welding, and the side of the front fixing box 9 is fixedly connected to the side of the front longitudinal beam 1 by welding.

[0032] The main anti-collision beam 2, the main energy absorption box 5, the front fixed box 9 and the upper side beam 11 constitute the third force transmission path. When a collision occurs, the collision force is transmitted to the front longitudinal beam 1 through the main anti-collision beam 2 and the main energy absorption box 5, part of the force is transmitted backward to the longitudinal beam connecting plate 13 and the lower cross beam 12 of the front wall through the front longitudinal beam 1, part of the force is transmitted to the upper side beam 11 through the front fixed box 9, and then transmitted to the A-pillar of the car through the upper side beam 11, and then transmitted backward through the A-pillar of the car; another part of the force is transmitted to the front subframe 10 through the front fixed box 9.

[0033] By linking the main anti-collision beam 2, the secondary anti-collision beam 3, the front longitudinal beam 1, the upper side beam 11, and the front subframe 10, the three main force transmission paths are optimized to achieve multi-path energy absorption transfer during the collision process, thereby reducing the collision load on the passenger compartment and improving the overall frontal collision performance of the vehicle.

[0034] The arrangement of the secondary anti-collision beam, the secondary energy absorbing box 6 and the front fixed box 9 effectively improves the 25% offset collision performance of the vehicle front.

[0035] The front anti-collision structure of the vehicle has lower cost, less impact on the vehicle weight, and more effective use of the front cabin space, so that the vehicle meets the C-NCAP five-star and C-IASI five-star collision requirements.

[0036] By testing a certain optimized vehicle model, the body acceleration of the whole vehicle collision (MPDB) was reduced by 10.2 g compared with the Base, and the compatibility penalty was reduced by 2.4 points. While reducing the aggressiveness to barrier vehicles, it also improved its own safety performance.

[0037] The above describes in detail the structure, features and effects of the present invention based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of implementation shown in the drawings. Any changes made according to the concept of the present invention, or modifications to equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes, which still do not exceed the spirit covered by the description and drawings, should be within the protection scope of the present invention.
