[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. Because the laser radar is arranged at the front of the roof, when the car is driving on the highway in heavy rain, due to the high water pressure, it is difficult to completely seal the matching surface between the laser radar and the radar cover, causing water to accumulate at the beam where the laser radar is installed, and even water will flow into the passenger compartment from the connection between the beam and other components.

[0041] 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 cross beam assembly 30, a mounting bracket 10, a top cover outer panel 40 and a first sealing member 60. The mounting bracket 10 is used to mount the laser radar 20. A through hole 41 is provided on the top cover outer panel 40. The top cover outer panel 40 is covered on the cross beam assembly 30 and connected together by welding. The mounting bracket 10 is at least partially passed through the through hole 41 and is connected to the cross beam assembly 30. The first sealing member 60 is arranged between the top cover outer panel 40 and the cross beam assembly 30, and the first sealing member 60 is arranged around the through hole 41.

[0042] 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 cross beam assembly 30, a mounting bracket 10, a top cover outer panel 40 and a first sealing member 60. The mounting bracket 10 is used to install the laser radar 20. The top cover outer panel 40 is provided with a through hole 41. The top cover outer panel 40 is covered on the cross beam assembly 30 and connected together by welding. The mounting bracket 10 is at least partially penetrated in the through hole 41 and connected to the cross beam assembly 30. The first sealing member 60 is arranged between the top cover outer panel 40 and the cross beam assembly 30, and the first sealing member 60 is arranged around the through hole 41. In this way, after the top cover outer panel 40 is connected to the cross beam assembly 30, the mounting bracket 10 can be directly connected to the cross beam assembly 30 through the through hole 41 to ensure the stability of the support for the laser radar 20. At the same time, a first sealing member 60 may be provided around the through hole 41 to prevent water from passing through the through hole 41 and through the gap between the cross beam assembly 30 and the top cover outer panel 40 , accumulating water at other locations of the vehicle body, or even flowing directly into the passenger compartment.

[0043] In related technologies, with the development of autonomous driving technology, vehicles can be given more possibilities. 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. Because the laser radar is arranged at the front of the roof, when the car is driving on the highway in heavy rain, due to the high water pressure, it is difficult to completely seal the matching surface between the laser radar and the radar cover, causing water to accumulate at the beam where the laser radar is installed, and even water will flow into the passenger compartment from the connection between the beam and other components.

[0044] It is understandable that the laser radar 20 needs to be set at the top cover outer panel 40 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 40 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.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, the top cover outer panel 40 can be a sheet metal, and a through hole 41 can be set at the front end of the top cover outer panel 40. After the mounting bracket 10 is assembled with the laser radar 20, the mounting bracket 10 is partially extended into the through hole 41, 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 41, and the mounting bracket 10 can be connected to the beam assembly 30 by bolts 122, and the entire laser radar 20 can be protruded above the top cover outer panel 40.

[0046] 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 22 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 41. 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 22 can be installed and buckled with the beam assembly 30.

[0047] Furthermore, the laser radar installation structure 100 also includes a cover plate 22. After the mounting bracket 10 and the laser radar 20 are assembled and installed in the through hole 41, the cover plate 22 is then placed on the laser radar 20. The cover plate 22 is attached to the top cover outer panel 40 to prevent water and dust from the external environment from entering through the cover plate 22 and the top cover outer panel 40. The cover plate 22 also includes a through hole, so that the laser radar 20 can be at least partially exposed through the through hole to ensure that the laser radar 20 can be aligned with the front of the vehicle 200. At the same time, the first seal 60 is arranged between the top cover outer panel 40 and the cross beam assembly 30, and the first seal 60 is arranged around the through hole 41 to prevent water from passing through the gap between the cross beam assembly 30 and the top cover outer panel 40 after passing through the through hole 41, accumulating water at other positions of the vehicle body, or even directly flowing into the passenger compartment.

[0048] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the laser radar mounting structure 100 also includes a sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and a second seal 70 . The sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and the cross beam assembly 30 are connected by welding, and the second seal 70 is disposed between the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and the cross beam assembly 30 .

[0049] In this way, a second seal 70 is provided between the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and the cross beam assembly 30 to prevent water from flowing into the vehicle body through the through hole 41 from the position between the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and the cross beam assembly 30, thereby ensuring the waterproof performance of the laser radar mounting structure 100.

[0050] Specifically, the top cover outer panel 40 can be prepared by sheet metal stamping, and the top cover outer panel 40 can be connected to the cross beam assembly 30 and the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 by welding to ensure the top connection stability of the vehicle body. The cross beam assembly 30 can be fixedly connected to the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and the top cover outer panel 40 by spot welding, and then sealed by the first seal 60 and the second seal 70 to prevent water from flowing from the gap between the cross beam assembly 30 and the top cover outer panel 40 and the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 to other positions of the vehicle body.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, the specific form of the first seal 60 and the second seal 70 is not limited to meet different needs. In one embodiment, the first seal 60 and the second seal 70 can be a glue layer, which can be applied to the corresponding position before welding, and the glue layer is formed after the glue solidifies to achieve the sealing effect. Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 The dotted lines in the figure are the arrangement positions of the first seal 60 and the second seal 70. The first seal 60 and the second seal 70 are shielded by the top cover outer panel 40 and are therefore indicated by dotted lines. Figure 4 The solid line in the middle indicates the arrangement position of the first sealing member 60 , and the dotted line indicates the arrangement position of the second sealing member 70 . The second sealing member 70 is shielded by the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 and is therefore indicated by a dotted line.

[0052] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, the crossbeam assembly 30 includes a mounting concave surface 31 , and the mounting concave surface 31 is arranged corresponding to the through hole 41 . The mounting bracket 10 is at least partially penetrated through the through hole 41 and connected to the mounting concave surface 31 .

[0053] In this way, the mounting concave surface 31 can be recessed downward relative to the upper surface of the beam assembly 30, and the mounting bracket 10 can be installed on the mounting concave surface 31 after passing through the through hole 41, so that the height of the laser radar 20 relative to the top cover outer panel 40 can be lowered, thereby reducing the problem of the laser radar 20 being too protruding.

[0054] For further information, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the cross beam assembly 30 further includes a connecting convex surface 32 , the connecting convex surface 32 surrounds the mounting concave surface 31 , and the first sealing member 60 is disposed on the connecting convex surface 32 and connected to the top cover outer panel 40 .

[0055] In this way, the connecting convex surface 32 can protrude upward relative to the mounting concave surface 31, and the top cover outer panel 40 can be connected to the connecting convex surface 32. At the same time, the first sealing member 60 is arranged at the connection between the connecting convex surface 32 and the top cover outer panel 40 to prevent water from flowing through the position between the cross beam assembly 30 and the top cover outer panel 40 into other positions of the vehicle body.

[0056] Specifically, the mounting concave surface 31 is used to connect the mounting bracket 10, and therefore needs to be recessed downward to reduce the mounting height of the laser radar 20. The connecting convex surface 32 can be raised upward for gluing and welding to ensure a stable connection between the crossbeam assembly 30 and the top cover outer panel 40.

[0057] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the mounting recess 31 includes a mounting platform 311, the mounting bracket 10 includes a connecting portion 11 and a fastener 12, the connecting portion 11 is correspondingly arranged with the mounting platform 311, and the fastener 12 is configured to fixedly connect the mounting bracket 10 and the beam assembly 30 through the connecting portion 11 and the mounting platform 311.

[0058] In this way, the mounting platform 311 can cooperate with the connecting part 11 to locate the position between the mounting bracket 10 and the beam assembly 30, and fix the mounting bracket 10 on the beam assembly 30 through the fastener 12 to ensure that the laser radar 20 is installed stably.

[0059] For further information, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the laser radar mounting structure 100 further includes a third seal 80 , which is disposed between the connecting portion 11 and the mounting platform 311 .

[0060] In this way, the third sealing member 80 may be disposed between the connecting portion 11 and the mounting platform 311 to prevent water from flowing into the vehicle body from a position between the connecting portion 11 and the mounting platform 311 .

[0061] Further, see Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the fastener 12 includes a projection welding nut 121 and a bolt 122 , and the projection welding nut 121 is welded on a side of the connecting portion 11 away from the mounting platform 311 .

[0062] In this way, the projection welding nut 121 and the bolt 122 are threadedly connected to fix the connecting portion 11 and the mounting platform 311 together, so that the mounting bracket 10 and the beam assembly 30 are stably connected.

[0063] Specifically, the projection welding nut 121 can be welded to the side of the connecting portion 11 away from the mounting platform 311 through the welding foot 1211, and the bolt 122 is connected to the projection welding nut 121 from the side of the cross beam assembly 30 away from the mounting bracket 10 to fix the connecting portion 11 and the mounting platform 311 together. Figure 6When the projection welding nut 121 is a through hole type, it can be matched with the glue bolt 122. The thread of the bolt 122 has waterproof glue. After the bolt 122 and the projection welding nut 121 are tightened, a waterproof seal can be achieved. In another example, please combine Figure 7 When the projection welding nut 121 is a blind hole type, it can be matched with a shorter bolt 122. After the projection welding nut 121 is welded with the connecting portion 11, it can seal the threaded hole by itself to achieve waterproof sealing. In this way, the fastener 12 can be matched with the third sealing member 80 to achieve sealing of the hole used for connection of the mounting concave surface 31.

[0064] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the mounting recess 31 further includes a wiring harness hole 312 , the laser radar 20 includes a wiring harness 21 and a fourth seal 90 sleeved on the wiring harness 21 , the wiring harness 21 passes through the wiring harness hole 312 , and the fourth seal 90 is snapped into the wiring harness hole 312 .

[0065] In this way, the laser radar 20 can be connected to the control system of the vehicle 200 through the wiring harness 21, and the fourth seal 90 can be set in the wiring harness hole 312 to seal the wiring harness hole 312 to prevent water from flowing into other positions of the vehicle body through the wiring harness hole 312.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, the specific forms of the third seal 80 and the fourth seal 90 are not limited to meet various requirements. For example, the third seal 80 can be a sealing gasket, which is arranged between the connection part 11 and the mounting platform 311 to prevent water from flowing into the vehicle body from the position between the connection part 11 and the mounting platform 311. The fourth seal 90 can be a rubber sleeve, the wire harness 21 is inserted into the rubber sleeve, and the rubber sleeve is arranged in the wire harness hole 312 to achieve sealing of the wire harness hole 312 of the mounting concave surface 31.

[0067] In some embodiments, the mounting concave surface 31 further includes a guide groove (not shown in the figure).

[0068] In this way, the guide groove can guide the accumulated water on the installation concave surface 31 to the position of the front windshield, thereby preventing a large amount of water from accumulating on the installation concave surface 31.

[0069] In some embodiments, the installation concave surface 31 can be tilted downward along the front of the vehicle 200 so that the accumulated water on the installation concave surface 31 can be diverted to the front windshield under the action of gravity. Of course, in other embodiments, the installation concave surface 31 can also be set as a horizontal plane, and then the accumulated water is diverted through the guide groove. Specifically, if water flows into the installation concave surface 31, it can flow along the guide groove to the front windshield to avoid a large amount of water accumulation on the installation concave surface 31.

[0070] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the specific form of the mounting platform 311 is not limited, and the mounting platform 311 can be a boss structure or a recessed structure. At the same time, the mounting platform 311 can also be a boss structure and a recessed structure at the same time to dock the connection parts 11 at different positions. For example, the number of mounting platforms 311 can be four, and the mounting platform 311 on the front side close to the front windshield can be a recessed structure; the mounting platform 311 on the rear side close to the sunroof position can be a boss structure, so that the installation position of the laser radar 20 is reasonable and the installation is stable. It should be noted that the recessed structure needs to be connected to the guide groove so that the accumulated water in the recessed structure can be discharged along the guide groove to avoid water accumulation in the recessed structure.

[0071] In some embodiments, the sunroof reinforcement plate 50 includes a protruding portion 51, and the top cover outer plate 40 includes a fitting portion 42. The protruding portion 51 extends toward the position of the through hole 41, and the fitting portion 42 can be fitted together with the protruding portion 51 and welded. In this way, the fitting portion 42 and the protruding portion 51 can avoid other physical structures of the top cover outer plate 40 and the sunroof reinforcement plate 50, meet the space requirements for welding, and avoid the problem that the welding clamp 521 cannot weld. In addition, the protruding portion 51, the fitting portion 42 and the connecting convex surface 32 also include welding points 52, and the welding clamp 521 can be welded together through multiple welding points 52.

[0072] In some embodiments, the cross beam assembly 30 further includes a cross beam upper plate, a reinforcement, and a cross beam lower plate (not shown in the figure) arranged in sequence, and the top cover outer plate 40 is covered on the cross beam upper plate. The reinforcement can be connected to the cross beam lower plate by installing buckles to fill the cavity between the cross beam assemblies 30 to improve the dynamic stiffness of the cross beam assembly 30.

[0073] In this way, the lower plate of the crossbeam, the reinforcement and the upper plate of the crossbeam can support and strengthen the top cover outer plate 40, thereby ensuring the strength of the entire roof. The laser radar 20 and the mounting bracket 10 can be arranged on the upper plate of the crossbeam. The upper plate of the crossbeam 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.

[0074] In certain embodiments, the roof outer panel 40 is formed by stamping.

[0075] In this way, the top cover outer panel 40 can be formed by stamping, which improves the flatness of the top cover outer panel 40 and makes it easier for the top cover outer panel 40 to fit and connect with the mounting bracket 10 and the cover plate 22 .

[0076] See also Fig. 9 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.

The top cover outer panel 40 is covered on the cross beam assembly 30 and connected together by welding. The mounting bracket 10 is at least partially penetrated in the through hole 41 and connected to the cross beam assembly 30. The first sealing member 60 is arranged between the top cover outer panel 40 and the cross beam assembly 30, and the first sealing member 60 is arranged around the through hole 41.
