[0020] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the present invention provides a mounting structure of a passenger car connecting mechanism, including a mounting assembly 100 for being arranged under the rear portion of a front car and a mounting assembly 200 for being arranged under the front portion of a rear car.

[0021] The installation assembly 100 includes a support truss 1, a mounting bracket 2 and a mounting bracket 3. The support truss 1 is used to be fixed under the rear of the front vehicle, so that the installation assembly 100 is set under the rear of the front vehicle as a whole. The mounting bracket 2 and the mounting bracket 3 are both fixedly set on the support truss 1. The mounting bracket 2 is used to face the upper mounting surface of one end of the connecting mechanism 300 and is detachably connected to the end of the connecting mechanism 300. The mounting bracket 23 is used to face the lower mounting surface of one end of the connecting mechanism 300 and is detachably connected to the end of the connecting mechanism 300. That is, the mounting bracket 1 and the mounting bracket 23 are both used to connect to one end of the connecting mechanism 300, but the relative positions and directions of the mounting bracket 1 and the mounting bracket 23 when connected to the connecting mechanism 300 are different, which meets the installation requirements and installation stability of the end of the connecting mechanism 300.

[0022] The second installation assembly 200 includes a second support truss 4 and a connecting bracket 5. The second support truss 4 is used to be fixed below the front part of the rear vehicle. The connecting bracket 5 is used to be fixed to the other end of the connecting mechanism 300 and is detachably connected to the second support truss 4.

[0023] The installation structure provided by the present invention, based on the above-mentioned setting, can meet the installation requirements of the connection mechanism 300 on the bus, and can ensure the stability after installation, realize the connection between the front and rear buses and ensure the reliability after connection, and meet the needs of connecting buses during peak passenger traffic to increase passenger capacity and operating efficiency. Moreover, the overall structure of the installation structure is simple and less complex, and can be applied to existing ordinary buses. During non-peak passenger traffic, after the connection mechanism 300 is removed to separate the front and rear buses, the installation assembly 100 in the installation structure is located below the rear of the front bus, and the installation assembly 2 200 is located below the front of the rear bus, which will not affect the normal driving of the front and rear buses, and the front and rear buses can still be used independently after separation.

[0024] The mounting bracket 2 is detachably connected to the connecting mechanism 300 by bolts. This connection method has high stability and is easy to assemble and disassemble.

[0025] Specifically, the mounting bracket 1 2 includes a plane bracket 1 21, a plane bracket 2 22, a Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and a Z-shaped bracket 2 24, the plane bracket 1 21, the plane bracket 2 22, the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24 are arranged at intervals and fixed on the supporting truss 1, the plane bracket 1 21, the plane bracket 2 22 and the upper and lower ends of the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24 are provided with mounting holes 1 25 for bolts to pass through, and the plane bracket 1 21, the plane bracket 2 22 and the lower ends of the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24 are located on the same height plane. The bolts pass through the mounting holes 1 25 and are connected to one end of the connecting mechanism 300, thereby realizing the connection between the mounting bracket 1 2 and the connecting mechanism 300. Based on the above-mentioned setting method, the surface of one end of the connecting mechanism 300 can be fixed at multiple points on the same height plane through the plane bracket 1 21, the plane bracket 22, and the lower ends of the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24, thereby improving the installation stability and installation accuracy of this end of the connecting mechanism 300. On this basis, the raised structural parts of this end of the connecting mechanism 300 can be installed and fixed, or other components can be installed, through the upper ends of the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24, and the intervals between the plane bracket 1 21, the plane bracket 2 22, the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24 can form a corresponding air avoidance space, which does not affect the movement of the corresponding movable components at this end of the connecting mechanism 300 and can avoid installation interference with other components.

[0026] The lower ends of the planar bracket 21, Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and Z-shaped bracket 2 24 are spaced apart along the direction of the support truss 1 corresponding to the width of the front vehicle body, and the upper ends of the planar bracket 22, Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and Z-shaped bracket 24 are spaced apart along the direction of the support truss 1 corresponding to the width of the front vehicle body, so that the distribution of the points for multi-point fixation on the surface of one end of the connecting mechanism 300 is more uniform and reasonable.

[0027] The bending regions of the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24 are provided with reinforcing rib plates 26 to improve the structural strength of the Z-shaped bracket 1 23 and the Z-shaped bracket 2 24 and further improve the installation reliability.

[0028] The mounting bracket 23 includes a fixing plate 131 and a mounting plate 132. The fixing plate 131 is fixed on the supporting truss 11. The mounting plate 132 is detachably arranged on the fixing plate 131. The mounting bracket 23 is detachably connected to one end of the connecting mechanism 300 through the mounting plate 132. Since the mounting bracket 23 is used to correspond to the lower mounting surface of one end of the connecting mechanism 300, based on the above-mentioned setting, the mounting plate 132 can be fixed and connected to the end of the connecting mechanism 300 after the end of the connecting mechanism 300 is fixed to the mounting bracket 2. When the connecting mechanism is removed, the mounting plate 132 can be removed first, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the connecting mechanism 300.

[0029] The mounting plate 1 32 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 2 33, and the fixing plate 1 31 is also provided with mounting holes 2 33. The number of mounting holes 2 33 on the fixing plate 1 31 is less than the number of mounting holes 2 33 on the mounting plate 1 32, and the size of the mounting plate 1 32 is larger than the size of the fixing plate 1 31. The mounting plate 1 32 is bolted to the fixing plate 1 31 through part of the mounting holes 2 33, and is bolted to one end of the connecting mechanism 300 through another part of the mounting holes 2 33, so that the mounting bracket 2 3 is detachably connected to the end of the connecting mechanism 300. This setting mode is stable and reliable, and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0030] The supporting truss 1 includes a supporting crossbeam 11 and a connecting truss 12. The supporting crossbeam 11 is used to be fixedly connected to the lower part of the rear of the front vehicle. The connecting truss 12 is fixed on the supporting crossbeam 11. The mounting bracket 12 and the mounting bracket 23 are both fixedly arranged on the connecting truss 12. The supporting crossbeam 11 is used as the main connecting and fixing member with the lower part of the rear of the front vehicle, and the connecting truss 12 provides the corresponding position space to meet the arrangement of the mounting bracket 12 and the mounting bracket 23 at different positions and heights.

[0031] The connecting bracket 5 is a frame-shaped structure, that is, a square-shaped structure, which can be directly used as a fixing seat at the other end of the connecting mechanism 300, meeting the fixing requirements of the other end of the connecting mechanism 300, and the structure is stable and light. The supporting truss 2 4 includes two supporting beams 2 41, and the two supporting beams 2 41 are used to be fixedly connected to the lower front part of the rear vehicle, and the connecting bracket 5 is detachably connected to the two supporting beams 2 41. Specifically, two fixing plates 2 42 are provided on the two supporting beams 2 41, that is, there are four fixing plates 2 42 in total, and a mounting plate 2 51 is provided on the four corners of the connecting bracket 5, that is, there are four mounting plates 2 51 in total, and the fixing plates 2 42 and the mounting plates 2 51 are both provided with mounting holes 3 for bolts to pass through, and each mounting plate 2 51 is connected to the corresponding fixing plate 2 42 by bolts passing through the mounting holes 3. This connection is stable and reliable, and is easy to disassemble and assemble. Moreover, since there are four fixing plates 2 42 and mounting plates 2 51, the stability after connection is better.

[0032] When the first installation assembly 100 is arranged below the rear of the front vehicle, it is specifically arranged at the frame part of the rear of the front vehicle. When the second installation assembly 200 is arranged below the front of the rear vehicle, it is specifically arranged at the frame part of the front of the rear vehicle. Figure 4 As shown, the installation assembly 100 is located below the rear frame 400 of the front vehicle, the supporting beam 11 is fixed to the rear frame 400 of the front vehicle, and the installation assembly 200 is located below the front frame 500 of the rear vehicle, and the supporting beam 2 41 is fixed to the front frame 500 of the rear vehicle.
