Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of commercial vehicle chassis, and in particular to a fender device for a truck and a vehicle having the same. Background Art
[0002] As the main means of transportation in the commercial transportation field, tractors have high requirements for traction, heavy load capacity, cargo carrying performance, etc. In harsh transportation environments, the fenders of tractors are subject to a lot of impact force, and they are usually directly connected to the vehicle's taillights, license plates, radars and other components, which are also subject to certain impact forces during transportation. However, the fender structures of heavy-duty tractors on the current market mainly have the following problems, especially in poor performance under harsh operating environments:
[0003] At present, the fenders of domestic tractors are mostly made of cast iron materials, which have the following problems: the hardness of cast iron fenders is low, and they are prone to plastic deformation, and cannot effectively protect the vehicle chassis; the mass of cast iron fenders is large, which is not conducive to the lightweight design of the vehicle; when the cast iron fenders are connected to the rear structure of the vehicle, due to the shrinkage during the casting process, cracks are prone to occur at the connection between the cast iron fenders and the rear structure of the vehicle, affecting the overall performance of the vehicle; the temperature control performance of cast iron fenders is poor, and cold cracks are prone to occur.
[0004] In the prior art, fenders are usually made of non-metallic materials such as polycarbonate, polyurethane, and ABS plastic. These materials have certain toughness and impact resistance, can absorb the impact of flying stones, and reduce damage to the fender itself; elastic components such as rubber strips or springs are designed on the edge or back of the fender to increase the buffering capacity of the fender when it is impacted; by optimizing the design of the fender bracket, using thicker and stronger metal materials or increasing the complexity of the bracket (such as multi-point fixing, adding diagonal braces, etc.), the overall stability of the fender is improved and its displacement or deformation caused by external impact is reduced; a structure that can adjust the gap between the fender and the tire is designed so that the fender can be adjusted to the optimal position under different road conditions. However, the above technical solutions have problems such as insufficient durability of non-metallic materials, high cost and weight, complex maintenance, low versatility and modularity.
[0005] Mudguards often carry key accessories such as taillights, license plates, radars, etc., which also need to withstand impact during vehicle driving. In the prior art, the fixing method of mudguards to taillights and license plates is often not strong enough, especially when the vehicle is driving at high speed or encountering complex roads, the accessories are prone to loosening or falling off, which not only affects the normal operation of the vehicle, but may also violate traffic regulations.

In the accompanying drawings, for the sake of clarity, the thickness of the layers and regions may be enlarged, and the same reference numerals are used to represent the same devices, and thus their descriptions will be omitted.
[0039] Combination Figures 1 to 5 As shown, according to a specific embodiment of the present application, a fender device for a truck and a vehicle having the same are provided.
[0040] Specifically, the fender device includes: a rear fender assembly 6 and a front fender assembly 1. The rear fender assembly 6 is arranged on a side close to the rear wheel of the vehicle, and is used to shield the muddy water generated by the rear wheel of the vehicle during the vehicle's travel; the front fender assembly 1 is arranged on the side of other wheels away from the rear wheel of the vehicle, and is used to shield the muddy water generated by the corresponding wheel during the vehicle's travel; wherein, the front fender assembly 1 is located in front of the rear fender assembly 6, and both the rear fender assembly 6 and the front fender assembly 1 are provided with warning devices, and the warning devices are used to prompt the current position of the target vehicle.
[0041] The technical solution of the present invention is composed of a rear fender assembly 6 and a front fender assembly 1. These two assemblies are respectively installed on both sides of the rear wheel and other wheels (front wheels or middle wheels) of the truck, aiming to effectively block the mud and water rolled up by the tires during the vehicle's travel and prevent them from splashing onto the vehicle itself or the surrounding environment. Furthermore, a warning device is integrated into the fender assembly, which can send a prompt signal to the rear vehicle or pedestrians when the vehicle is moving, indicating the current position of the truck, thereby enhancing the visual recognition of large vehicles by road participants when driving on rainy days or muddy roads, and improving overall traffic safety. The present application solves the technical problem in the prior art that the fender structure has poor reliability under harsh road conditions and is difficult to meet the needs of users.
[0042] Furthermore, the front fender assembly 1 includes: a front fender 10, a first mounting assembly 2 and a first warning device 3. The front fender 10 is connected to the first mounting assembly 2, and the first mounting assembly 2 is used to be detachably connected to the vehicle frame; the first warning device 3 is connected to the front fender 10, and the first warning device 3 is located on the outside of the first mounting assembly 2, and the first warning device 3 is arranged near the edge of the front fender 10. The position selection of the first warning device 3 fully considers the condition of not blocking the driver's field of vision, ensuring that it can be clearly identified at various viewing angles, and can provide additional visual signals in bad weather or at night to remind vehicles and pedestrians in front and on the side to keep a safe distance to ensure driving safety.
[0043] Optionally, the front fender 10 is made of high-strength alloy material to ensure its durability and protection performance in harsh environments. Its surface is treated with special technology to have good corrosion resistance and can adapt to various climate conditions.
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the connection between the first mounting assembly 2 and the frame adopts a quick-release design, and a series of fasteners are used to achieve a detachable connection with the frame. This design not only simplifies the installation and removal process of the front fender assembly 1, but also eliminates the need to disassemble the frame when the fender needs to be maintained or replaced, greatly reducing maintenance costs and time.
[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the first mounting assembly 2 includes a first connecting member 22, which is connected to the front fender 10. The first connecting member 22 is configured as a hollow structure, which can further reduce the use of materials while ensuring the connection strength, so that the front fender assembly 1 meets the lightweight design.
[0046] The first installation assembly 2 further includes: a first connection seat 23, a plurality of first connection seats 23 are provided, and the plurality of first connection seats 23 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first connection member 22, and the first installation assembly 2 is connected to the first assembly section 101 through the first connection seat 23; a first support seat 21, one end of the first support seat 21 is connected to one end of the first connection member 22 protruding from the front fender 10, and the other end of the first support seat 21 is connected to the frame longitudinal beam. Through the coordinated work of the first connection seat 23 and the first support seat 21, not only the front fender 10 is firmly fixed on the frame, but also the resistance of the front fender assembly 1 to various impacts and vibrations during the driving of the vehicle is enhanced.
[0047] The multiple settings of the first connection seats 23 and the interval distribution along the length direction of the first connection member 22 are intended to provide multi-point support and connection, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the front fender assembly 1 and the frame. This design can effectively disperse the force applied to the front fender 10 during driving and reduce structural deformation or damage caused by excessive force at a single point. In addition, by adjusting the distribution position and interval of the first connection seats 23, it is possible to flexibly adapt to the frame structure of different vehicle models, thereby improving the versatility and adaptability of the assembly.
[0048] In this embodiment, the first connection seat 23 is configured as a groove structure, and a through hole is provided on the bottom surface of the groove, and the first connection seat 23 is connected to the front fender 10 through the through hole. The first connection seat 23 is connected to the front fender 10 through a bolt assembly, and a rubber buffer gasket is provided on the bolt, which can provide additional buffering and shock absorption effects for the front fender 10 during connection. Furthermore, the bottom surface of the groove of the first connection seat is arranged to fit the surface of the front fender, further enhancing the stability and sealing of the connection. This fitting design can prevent rainwater or muddy water from entering the gap between the first connection seat 23 and the front fender 10, thereby avoiding corrosion and loosening, and ensuring that the front fender 10 maintains good performance and appearance for a long time.
[0049] The first support seat 21 is set as a triangular structure, one end of the first support seat 21 is welded and fixed to the first connecting member 22, and the other end of the first support seat 21 is provided with three connecting holes, and the first support seat 21 is connected to the longitudinal beam through the connecting holes. The triangular structure can effectively disperse and bear the external load, reduce the concentration of structural stress, and further enhance the reliability of the connection between the first support seat 21 and the longitudinal beam.
[0050] Optionally, the first support seat 21 may be connected to the longitudinal beam by bolts, hinges or other fasteners.
[0051] Furthermore, the first warning device 3 includes: a first mounting bracket 31 and a side marker light 32. The first mounting bracket 31 is connected to the front fender 10; the side marker light 32 is connected to the first mounting bracket 31. The first mounting bracket 31 provides a stable mounting base for the side marker light 32, ensuring that the side marker light 32 is positioned accurately and firmly.
[0052] The first mounting bracket 31 is usually made of a lightweight high-strength alloy material to ensure that the load on the vehicle is not significantly increased while ensuring structural strength.
[0053] Optionally, the side marker lights 32 may use an integrated LED warning light strip, the brightness of which can be automatically adjusted according to the ambient light. LEDs have the advantages of high brightness, low energy consumption, and long life, which can effectively improve energy efficiency and reduce maintenance requirements. The shell of the side marker lights 32 is made of polycarbonate material with high light transmittance, and is filled with waterproof glue to ensure that good lighting effects and electrical safety can be maintained in rainy and snowy weather. The side marker lights 32 can also select at least one of optical fiber side marker lights, laser side marker lights, and intelligent side marker lights according to actual needs.
[0054] In another specific embodiment, the front fender 10 may also be designed with a radar installation position, which can integrate the front radar system of the vehicle and work in conjunction with the first warning device 3 to improve the safety warning performance of the vehicle. The universal mounting hole on the front fender 10 is compatible with radars and warning devices of different models, without the need to customize different designs for different models, thereby reducing production and maintenance costs.
[0055] Specifically, the first mounting bracket 31 includes: a mounting base plate 301 and a mounting vertical plate 302. The mounting base plate 301 is connected to the surface of the front fender 10 in a fitting manner; the mounting vertical plate 302 is connected to the mounting base plate 301, the plane where the mounting vertical plate 302 is located is perpendicular to the plane where the mounting base plate 301 is located, and the mounting vertical plate 302 is extended along the vertical direction of the plane where it is located, and the side marker light 32 is connected to the mounting vertical plate 302 and is located outside the mounting vertical plate 302. Through the above design, the first mounting bracket 31 not only provides a stable and accurate mounting position for the side marker light 32, but also ensures the effective warning function of the side marker light 32 under different driving conditions through the synergistic effect of the mounting base plate 301 and the mounting vertical plate 302.
[0056] Optionally, the mounting base plate 301 fits tightly against the surface of the front fender 10, ensuring the basic stability of the mounting structure and reducing the risk of loosening due to vehicle driving vibration. A plurality of fixing holes are provided on the mounting base plate 301, and the mounting base plate 301 and the front fender 10 can be connected by any means such as bolts, rivets, hinges, welding, etc.
[0057] like Figure 4As shown, a positioning structure is provided on the mounting plate 302, and the size of the positioning structure is set corresponding to the size of the side marker lamp. Mounting holes are provided on both sides of the positioning structure, and the side marker lamp 32 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate through the mounting holes. The mounting plate 302 is vertically connected to the mounting base plate 301 and extends in the vertical direction, providing a stable support and precise positioning for the side marker lamp 32, so that it can protrude from the surface of the fender, effectively increasing the irradiation range and recognition angle of the side marker lamp 32, and enhancing driving safety at night or in low visibility conditions.
[0058] Furthermore, the rear fender assembly 6 includes: a rear fender 60, a second mounting assembly 4, and a second warning device 5. The second mounting assembly 4 is connected to the rear fender 60, and the second mounting assembly 4 is used to be detachably connected to the vehicle frame; the second warning device 5 is connected to at least one of the second mounting assembly 4 and the rear fender 60. The rear fender assembly 6 is arranged on the side close to the rear wheel of the vehicle, aiming to improve the safety and maintenance convenience of the rear part of the vehicle. The second mounting assembly 4 serves as a bridge between the rear fender 60 and the vehicle frame. Its "detachable connection" feature, that is, connection by bolts, buckles or other quick-release devices, provides great convenience for vehicle maintenance, allowing users to quickly disassemble and inspect without damaging the frame or the rear fender 60, reducing maintenance costs and time.
[0059] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the second warning device 5 is connected to the rear fender 60 via a second mounting assembly.
[0060] In another specific embodiment, the second warning device 5 may be directly connected to the rear fender 60 .
[0061] Optionally, the second warning device 5 is designed to provide a clear visual signal to the rear vehicle at night or in low visibility conditions to improve driving safety. In addition, the second warning device 5 can also be integrated with other sensors or communication equipment, such as radar, reversing image camera, etc., to further enhance the intelligence and safety of the vehicle.
[0062] like Figure 5 As shown, the second mounting assembly 4 includes: a second connecting seat 43, a plurality of second connecting seats 43 are provided, and the plurality of second connecting seats 43 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the second connecting member 42, and the second mounting assembly 4 is connected to the first assembly segment 101 through the second connecting seat 43; a second supporting seat 41, one end of the second supporting seat 41 is connected to one end of the second connecting member 22 protruding from the rear fender 60, and the other end of the second supporting seat 41 is connected to the frame longitudinal beam; a fixing assembly 44, one end of the fixing assembly 44 is arranged between the two second connecting seats 43, one end of the fixing assembly 44 is connected to the second connecting member 42, and one end of the fixing assembly 44 is extended along the height direction of the second assembly segment 102.
[0063] The second support seat 41 is made of high-strength forged material and is bolted to the frame longitudinal beam through a pre-set threaded hole, ensuring the stability of the overall structure. In this embodiment, one end of the second support seat 41 is welded and fixed to the second connecting member 42, and the other end of the first support seat 21 is set to a rectangle, and connecting holes are respectively set at the four corners of the other end. The second support seat 41 is connected to the longitudinal beam through the connecting holes, further enhancing the reliability of the connection between the second support seat 41 and the longitudinal beam.
[0064] In this embodiment, the second connection seat 43 is set as a groove structure, and a through hole is set on the bottom of the groove, and the rear fender 60 is connected through the through hole. The second connection seat 23 is connected to the rear fender 60 through a bolt assembly, and a rubber buffer gasket is provided on the bolt, which can provide additional buffering and shock absorption effects for the front fender 10 during connection. Furthermore, the bottom surface of the groove of the second connection seat is arranged to fit the surface of the rear fender, further enhancing the stability and sealing of the connection. This fitting design can prevent rainwater or muddy water from entering the gap between the second connection seat 23 and the rear fender 60, thereby avoiding corrosion and loosening, and ensuring that the rear fender 60 maintains good performance and appearance for a long time.
[0065] Specifically, the second warning device 5 includes: a second mounting bracket 51 and a vehicle taillight 7. One end of the second mounting bracket 51 is connected to the second mounting assembly 4, and the other end of the second mounting bracket 51 is extended downward in the vertical direction; a vehicle taillight 7, the vehicle taillight 7 is connected to the second mounting bracket 51, and the length direction of the vehicle taillight 7 is extended along the width direction of the rear fender 60. One end of the second mounting bracket 51 is firmly connected to the second mounting assembly 4, and the other end extends downward in the vertical direction. This design ensures the stability and accuracy of the taillight position. The length direction of the vehicle taillight 7 extends along the width direction of the rear fender 60, which not only increases the area of the taillight, thereby improving its visibility at night or in low visibility conditions, but also makes full use of the surface space of the rear fender 60, realizing a compact layout of the taillight, which is both beautiful and practical. The integrated design of the vehicle taillight 7 and the second mounting bracket 51 simplifies the structural layout of the rear fender assembly 6, improves the neatness and aesthetics of the design, and enhances the visual recognition and driving safety of the rear of the vehicle.
[0066] In this embodiment, the vehicle taillight 7 is detachably connected to the second mounting bracket 51, making the installation and replacement of the vehicle taillight 7 extremely simple, and the inspection and maintenance of the taillight can be completed without complicated tools or techniques, thereby reducing the operation and maintenance costs. The second mounting bracket 51 is made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance and mechanical strength.
[0067] It should be further explained that one end of the second mounting bracket 51 is disposed between the two second connecting seats 43 , and the second connecting seats 43 provide precise positioning for the second mounting bracket 51 to ensure the accuracy of the installation.
[0068] Specifically, the second mounting bracket 51 includes a bracket body, and the bracket body includes a connecting section 510 and a first mounting section 511. The first end of the connecting section 510 is connected to the second mounting assembly 4; the first end of the first mounting section 511 is connected to the connecting section 510, and the second end of the first mounting section 511 is formed with a stopper protrusion 512 protruding outward, and a first mounting area is formed between the stopper protrusion 512 and the first end of the first mounting section 511, and the vehicle taillight 7 is located in the first mounting area. The bracket body provides a precise and stable mounting platform for the vehicle taillight 7.
[0069] like Figure 5 It can be seen that the width dimension of the connecting section 510 is smaller than the width dimension of the first mounting section 511. The first mounting section 511 is set with a larger width dimension to fix various types of tail lights. The first mounting section 511 is provided with a plurality of fixing holes, and the vehicle tail lights 7 are fixedly connected to the rear fender through the fixing holes. The fixing holes are universal and can be installed for different types of tail lights.
[0070] Specifically, the bracket body also includes: a second mounting section 513, a first end of the second mounting section 513 is connected to a second end of the second mounting section 513, the second end of the second mounting section 513 is extended downward in a vertical direction, and the outer surface of the second mounting section 513 forms a second mounting area for mounting the vehicle license plate, wherein the stopper protrusion 512 is located between the first mounting area and the second mounting area. The design of the second mounting section 513 not only further optimizes the structure of the second mounting bracket, but also cleverly integrates the second mounting area of the vehicle license plate, thereby achieving a double improvement in structural compactness and functional integration. The stopper protrusion 512 is located between the first mounting area (for mounting the taillight) and the second mounting area (for mounting the license plate). This layout can not only effectively isolate the two areas to avoid mutual interference between the taillight and the license plate during installation or use, but also can utilize the physical protection provided by the stopper protrusion 512 itself to enhance the stability of the license plate area and reduce the displacement or damage of the license plate caused by external impact.
[0071] like Figure 5 As shown, the second mounting section 513 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes, through which the vehicle license plate is mounted, and the mounting holes are universal and can be mounted for different types of license plates. The second mounting section 513 is provided with a flat plate structure, so that the license plate can be more closely fitted to the outer surface of the second mounting section 513, ensuring the firmness of the connection.
[0072] Specifically, the bracket body is an integrated molding setting. This integrated molding design not only simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces the number of components, but also improves the overall strength and rigidity of the bracket body, wherein the stop protrusion 512 is a raised structure formed by stamping the inner side of the bracket body to the outer side. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the bracket body is made of high-strength stainless steel material and is integrally formed through a precise stamping process. The stop protrusion 512 portion, that is, the end protrusion of the first mounting section 511, is formed outwardly as a raised structure with a certain curvature by performing precise stamping operations on the inner side plate of the bracket body. This design eliminates the need for additional connection points between the stop protrusion 512 and the bracket body, eliminates possible failure points of the connector, and improves the stability and reliability of the entire structure.
[0073] Optionally, the stopper protrusion 512 is configured as a flat plate structure, and the top of the stopper protrusion 512 provides a placement platform for the vehicle taillight 7, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the installation of the vehicle taillight 7. The width of the stopper protrusion 512 is greater than the width of the vehicle taillight 7, and a small gap is formed between the stopper protrusion 512 and the two sides of the vehicle taillight 7, thereby providing side protection for the taillight to prevent it from being damaged during driving or installation.
[0074] Specifically, at least one of the front fender 10 of the front fender assembly 1 and the rear fender 60 of the rear fender assembly 6 includes two component sections, the two component sections are flat plate structures, and the two component sections are arranged at an angle. The design of the two component sections being arranged as flat plate structures with an angle can be optimized according to the rotation direction of the tire and the airflow direction when the vehicle is running, ensuring that muddy water and stones flow or fly out smoothly along the inclined surface of the fender instead of directly splashing onto the vehicle body or the rear vehicle, thereby improving the cleanliness and driving safety of the vehicle.
[0075] In this embodiment, the front fender 10 and the rear fender 60 are welded and made of metal material. The yield strength and durability of metal material far exceed those of non-metallic materials, and can effectively resist the impact of flying stones when driving at high speed, and protect the vehicle chassis from damage. There is an angle between the two component sections, and the angle range is set to 110° to 150°. The setting of the angle ensures the optimal gap between the fender assembly and the tire, which not only avoids the friction between the tire and the fender, but also ensures a good mud and water protection effect.
[0076] In a specific implementation, the fender device further includes a splash guard, which is disposed below the second component segment 102 of the rear fender 60 and is connected to the second component segment 102. The design of the splash guard is intended to further improve the safety and cleanliness of the vehicle during driving. The splash guard not only helps to more effectively block and guide muddy water and stones thrown out from the rear wheels, reducing the impact on the rear part of the vehicle body and the rear vehicle, but also provides additional protection under high-speed driving or rainy road conditions, reduces the direct impact of road splashes on the vehicle body, keeps the vehicle appearance clean and reduces maintenance costs.
[0077] Specifically, tiny baffles or flanges are designed at the bottom and sides of the splash-proof device to further reduce the lateral spread of splashes.
[0078] Optionally, the splash guard is made of highly elastic, wear-resistant non-metallic materials such as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polyurethane, which can withstand the impact of stones without breaking, and at the same time have a certain flexibility and can deform when in contact with the ground to avoid unnecessary noise and vibration when the vehicle passes through uneven roads.
[0079] Specifically, the second mounting bracket 51 is located outside the rear fender 60. When the second mounting bracket 51 is located outside the rear fender 60, the taillight and the splash guard can be more prominent, and the signal of the taillight can be more clearly recognized by the rear vehicle at night or in bad weather conditions, thereby improving driving safety. At the same time, this layout can better protect the taillight and the splash guard, reduce their direct impact by splashes such as stones, mud and water, and extend the service life of these key components.
[0080] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0081] 1. By setting up a metal fender assembly, the physical protection capability of the fender assembly is significantly enhanced, especially the protection against stone splashes under adverse road conditions. In addition, the taillights, license plate and other key accessories are securely fixed through the first mounting bracket and the second mounting bracket, which effectively ensures driving safety at night and in adverse weather conditions and reduces the possibility of accidents.
[0082] 2. The fender device in this solution achieves quick installation and replacement through optimized bracket structure and mounting hole design, reducing the complexity and cost of adjusting and replacing the fender. At the same time, the universal and modular design allows the same type of fender to adapt to a variety of vehicle models, improves the interchangeability and flexibility of components, and facilitates vehicle maintenance and upgrades.
[0083] The above embodiments may also be used in the field of equipment technology. That is, according to another aspect of the present invention, a vehicle is provided, comprising a fender device, and the fender device is the fender device of any one of the above embodiments.
