The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.
[0037] In the description of the present application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0038] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 6 An adapter bracket 1 , an air suspension system 10 having the adapter bracket 1 , and a vehicle 100 having the air suspension system 10 according to an embodiment of the present application are described in detail.
[0039] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the adapter bracket 1 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present application includes a vibration damping mounting plate 11 and a pump body mounting plate 12, the vibration damping mounting plate 11 is used to install the vibration damping assembly 2, the pump body mounting plate 12 is connected to the vibration damping mounting plate 11, and at least two matching surfaces are provided on the pump body mounting plate 12, the matching surfaces are used to connect with the air pump 3, and each matching surface is located in a different plane.
[0040] Specifically, at least two matching surfaces located in different planes are provided on the pump body mounting plate 12, which provide a flexible layout in three-dimensional space for the installation of the air pump 3, can accurately adapt to the complex external structure of the air pump 3, ensure that the air pump 3 is tightly and firmly connected to the adapter bracket 1, improve the accuracy and convenience of installation, reduce the problems of loose and displacement of components caused by loose connection, reduce the difficulty and time cost of debugging during installation, and also enhance the stability of the air pump 3 during the operation of the vehicle 100, and reduce the risk of component damage caused by vibration and impact. The vibration-damping mounting plate 11 is specially used to install the vibration-damping assembly 2, which can effectively isolate and absorb the vibration and impact force generated by the air pump 3 during operation, prevent these vibrations from being transmitted to other components of the vehicle 100, thereby protecting the air pump 3 and its peripheral equipment from damage caused by excessive vibration, extending the service life of the adapter bracket 10, and improving the reliability and stability of the vehicle 100. The vibration-damping mounting plate 11 fixes the vibration-damping assembly 2 on the adapter bracket 1, and the pump body mounting plate 12 fixes the air pump 3 on the adapter bracket 1, which indirectly determines the relative position of the vibration-damping assembly 2 and the air pump 3, so that the overall shape layout and the center of mass position of the air pump 3 are evenly distributed and regular in size, which is convenient for the arrangement of the vibration-damping bracket and the surrounding parts of the whole vehicle, making the structure of the entire air suspension system 10 more compact, and improving the reliability and stability of the installation of the vibration-damping assembly 2 and the air pump 3. At the same time, it provides a stable support for the air pump 3, simplifies the design process of the vibration-damping bracket, reduces the difficulty and cost of processing, and improves the modality and strength of the vibration-damping bracket.
[0041] Optionally, the vibration reduction assembly 2 and the vibration reduction mounting plate 11 may be mounted by threaded fasteners, rivets, etc. Similarly, the air pump 3 and the pump body mounting plate 12 may be mounted by threaded fasteners, rivets, etc. Figure 2 As shown, the vibration reduction assembly 2 is connected to the vibration reduction mounting plate 11 by threaded fasteners, and the air pump 3 is connected to the pump body mounting plate 12 by six first threaded fasteners 71, and the first threaded fasteners 71 pass through the mounting holes on the pump body mounting plate 12 and are fastened to the air pump 3. Optionally, the first threaded fasteners 71 may be one, two or more. The first threaded fasteners 71 may be screws, bolts, etc.
[0042] In the related art, during the installation of the air pump, due to the complex shape of the vehicle and the air pump, the existing adapter bracket is difficult to accurately match the complex shape of the air pump, and the air pump is easily loosened, displaced, and other problems after being installed on the adapter bracket.
[0043] According to the adapter bracket 1 of the embodiment of the present application, at least two matching surfaces located in different planes are provided on the pump body mounting plate 12, which provides a flexible layout in three-dimensional space for the installation of the air pump 3, can accurately adapt to the complex external structure of the air pump 3, ensure that the air pump 3 is tightly and firmly connected to the adapter bracket 1, improve the accuracy and convenience of installation, reduce problems such as looseness and displacement of components due to loose connection, reduce the difficulty and time cost of debugging during the installation process, and also enhance the stability of the air pump 3 during the operation of the vehicle 100, and reduce the risk of component damage due to vibration and impact.
[0044] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the pump body mounting plate 12 includes a first matching plate 121 and a second matching plate 122, at least one of the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122 is provided with a pump body connection structure 123, at least two matching surfaces include a first matching surface 1211 and a second matching surface 1221, the first matching surface 1211 is formed on the first matching plate 121, the second matching surface 1221 is formed on the second matching plate 122, and the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 are located in different planes. Specifically, the air pump 3 is suitable for being fitted with both the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221, and the air pump 3 is fixed to the pump body connection structure 123. In other words, the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 are located in different planes, which provides a flexible layout in three-dimensional space for the installation of the air pump 3, so that the air pump 3 can be fitted with the pump body mounting plate 12 at the best angle and position according to actual needs. The first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 can match the irregular shape of the air pump 3, which improves the versatility and compatibility of the adapter bracket 1, making the installation process of the air pump 3 more intuitive and simple. Therefore, the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 on the adapter bracket 1 make the shape layout and center position of the air pump 3 evenly distributed and regular in size, which is convenient for the installation of the vibration reduction bracket and other parts of the vehicle.
[0045] In some embodiments, the pump body connection structure 123 is only disposed on the first matching plate 121 .
[0046] In some embodiments, the pump body connection structure 123 is only disposed on the second matching plate 122 .
[0047] In some embodiments, a pump body connection structure 123 is disposed on the first matching plate 121 and a pump body connection structure 123 is also disposed on the second matching plate 122 .
[0048] Optionally, the pump body connection structure 123 may be one, two or more. Figure 4As shown, there are six pump body connection structures 123 , wherein three pump body connection structures 123 are disposed on the first matching plate 121 , and three pump body connection structures 123 are disposed on the second matching plate 122 .
[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, one end of the first matching plate 121 is connected to one end of the second matching plate 122, the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 intersect to form a matching surface angle α1 less than 180°, and the side of the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 facing the matching surface angle α1 is used to install the air pump 3. In other words, the air pump 3 is arranged on the side of the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 facing the matching surface angle α1. Therefore, by designing the angle between the first matching surface 1211 and the second matching surface 1221 to an angle less than 180°, the installation space can be effectively saved, so that the pump body mounting plate 12 can be more flexibly adapted to various specifications of air pumps 3. The matching surface angle α1 enables the air pump 3 to fit more closely on the pump body mounting plate 12, reduces the waste of space, and makes the installation of the air pump 3 easier to position and align.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the angle α1 of the matching surface is 108°, the angle α2 between the first matching plate 121 and the vibration damping mounting plate 11 is 54°, and the angle α3 between the second matching plate 122 and the vibration damping mounting plate 11 is 18°. As a result, the angle α2 between the first matching plate 121 and the vibration damping mounting plate 11 is greater than the angle α3 between the second matching plate 122 and the vibration damping mounting plate 11, so that the positions of the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122 can be better adapted to the air pump 3, thereby improving the installation convenience and stability of the air pump 3. Specifically, the air pump 3 is an irregular shape, so the angle α2 and the angle α3 are not equal. The center of mass of the air pump 3 is biased toward the second matching plate 122, so the angle α3 is greater than the angle α2.
[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the vibration damping mounting plate 11 is suitable for connecting with the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122, and a plurality of vibration damping connection structures 111 are provided on the vibration damping mounting plate 11, and the plurality of vibration damping connection structures 111 are used to install the vibration damping assembly 2. Specifically, the plurality of vibration damping assemblies 2 are fixed at the corresponding vibration damping connection structures 111. The vibration damping assembly 2 is fixed to the vibration damping mounting plate 11 through the vibration damping connection structures 111, which can effectively absorb and disperse the vibration energy from the vehicle 100, reduce the influence of the vibration on the air pump 3, improve the stability and reliability of the air suspension system 10, extend the overall service life of the air suspension system 10, and reduce the probability of component damage and maintenance costs.
[0052] Optionally, the number of the vibration-damping connection structures 111 may be two, three, four or more.
[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, the vibration reduction assembly 2 is connected to the vibration reduction bracket, and the vibration reduction bracket is connected to a primary vibration reduction structure. The vibration reduction assembly 2 of the present application is a secondary vibration reduction structure. Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the vibration reduction assembly 2 includes a vibration reduction spring, a buffer pad and a vibration reduction screw. The vibration reduction spring, buffer pad and vibration reduction screw are installed on the vibration reduction mounting plate 11 of the adapter bracket 1, so that the four vibration reduction assemblies 2 are evenly distributed and the four vibration reduction assemblies 2 are on the same horizontal plane, so that the secondary vibration reduction structure is balanced and the vibration reduction and damping effect is obvious.
[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the multiple vibration-damping connection structures 111 include at least four basic connection structures 1111, and the four basic connection structures 1111 are located at the four vertices of a square. The intersection of the two diagonals of the square is the center point A. The multiple vibration-damping connection structures 111 are arranged symmetrically in pairs around the center point A. The vibration-damping components 2 installed on the multiple vibration-damping connection structures 111 are arranged in parallel, and the arrangement center lines L0 of the multiple parallel vibration-damping components 2 pass through the center point A, and the center line L0 is perpendicular to the vibration-damping mounting plate 11. The line connecting the center of mass of the air pump 3 and the center point A is perpendicular to the vibration-damping mounting plate 11. Therefore, the four basic connection structures 1111 are located at the four vertices of the square, ensuring that the vibration-damping force is evenly distributed in four directions, which helps to reduce the distortion and deformation caused by vibration and improves the stability and reliability of the air suspension system 10.
[0055] Optionally, the square in “the four vertices of the square” may be a rectangle or a square or a rhombus.
[0056] Optionally, the vibration-damping connection structure 111 may further include a plurality of auxiliary connection structures 1112, which are arranged symmetrically in pairs around the central point A, and corresponding auxiliary vibration-damping components are installed at the auxiliary connection structures 1112, and the axis of the auxiliary vibration-damping components is parallel to the axis of the vibration-damping component 2. Figure 5 As shown, there are two auxiliary connection structures 1112, which are symmetrically arranged around the center point A.
[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the vibration-damping mounting plate 11 includes a first sub-plate 112 and a second sub-plate 113, the first sub-plate 112 and the second sub-plate 113 are spaced apart, the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122 are located between the first sub-plate 112 and the second sub-plate 113, and the first sub-plate 112 and the second sub-plate 113 are both provided with a vibration-damping connection structure 111. Thus, the vibration-damping mounting plate 11 is subdivided into the first sub-plate 112 and the second sub-plate 113, which enhances the overall rigidity of the vibration-damping mounting plate 11, helps to resist the influence of external deformation and vibration, and the vibration-damping connection structure 111 on the first sub-plate 112 and the second sub-plate 113 can form a more stable and effective vibration-damping system, improve the vibration-damping effect, and can disperse the stress generated by the vibration to a larger area, avoiding structural damage caused by stress concentration, and improving the service life of the air pump 3, ensuring a more stable operation of the air pump 3.
[0058] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the first sub-plate 112 has a first vibration-damping surface 1121, and the second sub-plate 113 has a second vibration-damping surface 1131. The first vibration-damping surface 1121 and the second vibration-damping surface 1131 are both away from the pump body mounting plate 12, and the first vibration-damping surface 1121 and the second vibration-damping surface 1131 are located in the same plane. As a result, the first vibration-damping surface 1121 and the second vibration-damping surface 1131 are located in the same plane, which improves the stability of the air suspension system 10, can form a more uniform vibration-damping layer, and helps to ensure that the vibration energy is more evenly distributed on the first vibration-damping surface 1121 and the second vibration-damping surface 1131, thereby further improving the vibration-damping efficiency. When the air pump 3 is installed on the adapter bracket 1, the first vibration-damping surface 1121 and the second vibration-damping surface 1131 are both away from the air pump 3.
[0059] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the adapter bracket 1 also includes a first side plate 13 and a second side plate 14, the first side plate 13 is connected to the first sub-plate 112, the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122 are both connected to the first side plate 13, the second side plate 14 is arranged opposite to the first side plate 13, the second side plate 14 is connected to the second sub-plate 113, and the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122 are both connected to the second side plate 14. Thus, the vibration reduction mounting plate 11 and the pump body mounting plate 12 are connected into a whole through the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14, forming a multi-faceted connection structure, so that the adapter bracket 1 can more effectively disperse and resist external stress, thereby enhancing the stability of the entire adapter bracket 1.
[0060] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the adapter bracket 1 further includes a reinforcing plate 18, which is connected to the second matching plate 122, and the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 14 are both connected to the reinforcing plate 18. Thus, the reinforcing plate 18 enhances the overall structural strength of the adapter bracket 1, thereby improving the anti-deformation capability and load-bearing capacity of the adapter bracket 1.
[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the adapter bracket 1 further includes a first connecting plate 15 and a second connecting plate 16, the first connecting plate 15 and the second connecting plate 16 are spaced apart, the first matching plate 121 and the second matching plate 122 are located between the first connecting plate 15 and the second connecting plate 16, the first connecting plate 15 connects the first sub-plate 112, the second sub-plate 113 and the first matching plate 121, and the second connecting plate 16 connects the first sub-plate 112, the second sub-plate 113 and the second matching plate 122. In other words, the first connecting plate 15 connects the first sub-plate 112, the second sub-plate 113 and the first matching plate 121, so that the structures of the first sub-plate 112, the second sub-plate 113 and the first matching plate 121 are more stable, so that the vibration reduction mounting plate 11 and the first matching plate 121 can more effectively disperse and resist external stress, thereby enhancing the stability of the entire adapter bracket 1. Similarly, the second connecting plate 16 connects the first sub-plate 112, the second sub-plate 113 and the second matching plate 122, making the structures of the first sub-plate 112, the second sub-plate 113 and the second matching plate 122 more stable, so that the vibration reduction mounting plate 11 and the second matching plate 122 can more effectively disperse and resist external stress, thereby enhancing the stability of the entire adapter bracket 1. Therefore, by providing the first connecting plate 15 and the second connecting plate 16, the overall stability of the adapter bracket 1 is further enhanced, so that the adapter bracket 1 can better withstand various stresses.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the adapter bracket 1 further includes a tank mounting portion 17, which is used to mount the drying tank 4, and the tank mounting portion 17 is suitable for connecting with the first matching plate 121 or the second matching plate 122. Thus, the drying tank 4 can be more conveniently fixed on the adapter bracket 1 through the tank mounting portion 17, and the drying tank 4, the adapter bracket 1 and the air pump 3 and other components are tightly connected, thereby improving the integrity and reliability of the air suspension system 10.
[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the tank mounting portion 17 is suitable for connecting with the first matching plate 121 .

[0065] Optionally, the tank mounting portion 17 may be one, two or more. Figure 3 As shown, there are two tank body mounting parts 17.
[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the tank body mounting portion 17 is constructed as a sleeve, and the sleeve has an internal threaded hole, which is suitable for threading with a bolt passing through the drying tank 4. Specifically, the drying tank 4 is fixed to the internal threaded hole by a second threaded fastener 72.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, the pump body connection structure 123 is constructed as a first pump body mounting hole on the first matching plate 121 and a second pump body mounting hole on the second matching plate 122.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 4 As shown, the adapter bracket 1 has six pump body connection structures 123 , and the pump body connection structures 123 are configured as pump body mounting holes to connect the air pump 3 .
[0076] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, according to the air suspension system 10 of the embodiment of the present application, it includes an adapter bracket 1, a vibration reduction assembly 2 and an air pump 3, the adapter bracket 1 is any of the above-mentioned adapter brackets 1, the number of vibration reduction assemblies 2 is multiple, the multiple vibration reduction assemblies 2 are fixedly mounted on the adapter bracket 1, the air pump 3 is fixedly mounted on the adapter bracket 1, and the air pump 3 is suitable for fitting with the matching surface.
[0077] According to the air suspension system 10 of the embodiment of the present application, the adapter bracket 1 thereof provides a flexible layout in three-dimensional space for the installation of the air pump 3 by providing at least two matching surfaces located in different planes on the pump body mounting plate 12, and can accurately adapt to the complex external structure of the air pump 3, ensuring that the air pump 3 is tightly and firmly connected to the adapter bracket 1, thereby improving the accuracy and convenience of installation, reducing problems such as looseness and displacement of components caused by loose connection, reducing the difficulty and time cost of debugging during the installation process, and also enhancing the stability of the air pump 3 during the operation of the vehicle 100, reducing the risk of component damage due to vibration and impact.
[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, multiple vibration damping assemblies 2 are arranged in parallel, and the multiple vibration damping assemblies 2 are symmetrically arranged in pairs around the arrangement center line L0 of the multiple vibration damping assemblies 2. The center line L0 is parallel to the axes of the multiple vibration damping assemblies 2. The multiple vibration damping assemblies 2 are used to connect the vibration damping brackets, and the center of mass of the air pump 3 is located on the center line L0.
[0079] The air suspension system 10 may further include a vibration-damping bracket, which is located above the adapter bracket 1 . The adapter bracket 1 is connected to the vibration-damping bracket via a plurality of vibration-damping components 2 .
[0080] Specifically, by setting the adapter bracket 1, the center of mass of the air pump 3 is always located on the center line L0 of the adapter bracket 1, so that the overall shape layout and center of mass position of the air pump 3 are evenly distributed, and the size is regular, which is convenient for arranging the vibration-damping bracket and the surrounding parts of the whole vehicle. At the same time, by designing the adapter bracket 1, a stable support is provided for the air pump 3, the design process of the vibration-damping bracket is simplified, the processing difficulty and cost are reduced, and the mode and strength of the vibration-damping bracket are improved.
[0081] In the related art, during the installation of the air pump, the vibration damping bracket needs to be arranged and designed in accordance with the vehicle model and the shape of the air pump. However, due to the complex shape of the air pump, it is difficult to control the center of mass position of the air pump suspension during the design of the vibration damping bracket, which makes the design of the vibration damping bracket complex, difficult to process and form, and the cost is high. In addition, the modal of the vibration damping bracket is difficult to meet the requirements.
[0082] According to the air suspension system 10 of the embodiment of the present application, by fixing the air pump 3 and the vibration reduction assembly 2 on the adapter bracket 1, it is ensured that the center of mass of the air pump 3 is always located on the arrangement center line L0 of multiple vibration reduction assemblies 2, so that the overall shape and weight distribution of the air pump 3 are regular. The adapter bracket 1 is connected to the vibration reduction bracket through the vibration reduction assembly 2, which reduces the design difficulty of the vibration reduction bracket, facilitates the design and installation of the vibration reduction bracket, and ensures the modality and strength of the vibration reduction bracket.
[0083] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the air suspension system 10 further includes a drying tank 4, which is fixed to a tank body mounting portion 17 on the adapter bracket 1. Specifically, the drying tank 4 can be more conveniently fixed to the adapter bracket 1 through the tank body mounting portion 17, and the drying tank 4, the adapter bracket 1, and components such as the air pump 3 are tightly connected, thereby improving the integrity and reliability of the air suspension system 10.
[0084] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the air suspension system 10 further includes an air inlet pipe 5 and an air outlet pipe 6, the drying tank 4 has a first tank body interface 41 and a second tank body interface 42, the air pump 3 has a first pump body interface 31 and a second pump body interface 32, the first tank body interface 41 and the first pump body interface 31 are connected through the air inlet pipe 5, and the second tank body interface 42 and the second pump body interface 32 are connected through the air outlet pipe 6. Thus, the first tank body interface 41 of the drying tank 4 is connected to the first pump body interface 31 of the air pump 3 through the air inlet pipe 5, and the second tank body interface 42 of the drying tank 4 is connected to the second pump body interface 32 of the air pump 3 through the air outlet pipe 6, so that the drying tank 4 and the air pump 3 form a complete air path system, so that the drying tank 4 can remove moisture, dust or other impurities in the air of the air pump 3, and at the same time help prevent external gas from mixing into the air suspension system 10, ensuring the dryness and cleanliness of the gas.
[0085] See also Figure 1 , Figure 6 As shown, a vehicle 100 according to another embodiment of the present application includes the air suspension system 10 of the above embodiment, and the axis of the shock absorbing assembly 2 extends along the height direction of the vehicle 100 .
[0086] It is understandable that in the above “the axis of the vibration reduction assembly 2 extends along the height direction of the vehicle 100”, the height direction of the vehicle 100 is a direction perpendicular to the horizontal ground when the vehicle 100 is located on the horizontal ground. The axis of the vibration reduction assembly 2 may coincide with the height direction of the vehicle 100, or may be at a certain angle with the height direction of the vehicle 100, and the angle is less than 20°.
[0087] According to the vehicle 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the adapter bracket 1 of its air suspension system 10 provides a flexible layout in three-dimensional space for the installation of the air pump 3 by providing at least two matching surfaces located in different planes on the pump body mounting plate 12, and can accurately adapt to the complex external structure of the air pump 3, ensuring that the air pump 3 is tightly and firmly connected to the adapter bracket 1, thereby improving the accuracy and convenience of installation, reducing problems such as looseness and displacement of components due to loose connection, reducing the difficulty and time cost of debugging during the installation process, and also enhancing the stability of the air pump 3 during the operation of the vehicle 100, reducing the risk of component damage due to vibration and impact.
