Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of automobile component design, in particular to a detachable automobile side pedal device. Background Art

[0002] At present, the side pedals of cars are mostly installed on both sides of the car body, and the side pedals are mostly fixed to the car body with a connecting structure. At present, due to the increasingly high requirements of car users for car side protection, many car models are equipped with anti-collision tubes on the car side. However, since the installation position of the anti-collision tube overlaps with the side pedal, only one of the side pedal and the anti-collision tube can be installed. Choosing the anti-collision tube will increase the pedaling distance and make pedaling difficult. However, car users mostly want to take into account the combination of the anti-collision tube and pedaling assistance. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a detachable automobile side pedal device to solve the technical problem that the prior art fails to provide both an anti-collision tube and a pedaling auxiliary function on the vehicle body. The present invention has a simple structure and lower cost.

[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A detachable automobile side pedal device comprises an anti-collision pipe assembly and a side pedal assembly;

[0006] The anti-collision tube assembly includes a first anti-collision tube;

[0007] The side pedal assembly includes a side pedal support tube and a side pedal connected to the upper end of the side pedal support tube;

[0008] The rear end of the side step support tube is connected to a first connecting bracket, and the lower end of the first anti-collision tube is connected to a second connecting bracket;

[0009] The first connecting bracket is detachably connected to the second connecting bracket; and the second connecting bracket is entirely located below the first anti-collision tube.

[0010] Furthermore, the anti-collision tube assembly also includes a second anti-collision tube; the two ends of the first anti-collision tube are respectively connected to the two ends of the second anti-collision tube; the first anti-collision tube is located above the second anti-collision tube; the upper and lower ends of the second connecting bracket are fixedly connected to the first anti-collision tube and the second anti-collision tube at the same time.

[0011] Furthermore, the front-to-rear width of the second connecting bracket is smaller than the front-to-rear width of the first anti-collision tube.

[0012] Furthermore, the end of the connecting bracket 1 is provided with an undercut; the end of the connecting bracket 2 is provided with a notch for matching the undercut.

[0013] Further, a gasket is also provided between the first connecting bracket and the second connecting bracket.

[0014] Further, there are two sets of the side step assemblies.

[0015] Further, a vehicle body mounting bracket is also connected to the rear end of the first anti-collision tube.

[0016] Further, the first connecting bracket and the second connecting bracket are tightly connected by a bolt assembly.

[0017] Further, the bolt assembly includes a first bolt and a spring nut.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a detachable vehicle side step device, having the following

[0019] beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. In the present invention, the first connecting bracket and the second connecting bracket are detachably connected rather than fixedly connected. Users can, according to their own needs, choose to retain both the anti-collision tube assembly and the side step assembly on the side of the vehicle body, so as to meet the common needs of both the anti-collision tube and the side step on the side of the vehicle body; or they can separate the side step assembly from the anti-collision tube assembly at any time according to the need, remove the side step assembly, and only retain the anti-collision tube assembly on the side of the vehicle body.

[0021] 2. During installation, the vehicle body mounting bracket can be connected to the rear end of the first anti-collision tube; while the side step assembly and the first anti-collision tube are connected to each other through the connection between the first connecting bracket and the second connecting bracket. The original mounting positions on the vehicle body are only used to connect the vehicle body mounting bracket, thus avoiding the embarrassment that only the anti-collision tube assembly or the side step assembly can be selected for installation on the side of the vehicle body due to the overlapping of the vehicle body mounting positions.

[0022] 3. At the same time, because the second connecting bracket is connected to the lower end of the first anti-collision tube, and the second connecting bracket is entirely located below the first anti-collision tube. When the user chooses to remove the side step assembly, since the second connecting bracket is entirely located below the first anti-collision tube and the front-to-back width of the second connecting bracket is smaller than the front-to-back width of the first anti-collision tube, blocked by the second anti-collision tube, the second connecting bracket will not protrude outside the first anti-collision tube, so it will not cause collision to other objects or people on the side, reducing potential safety hazards. At the same time, the overall visual effect is also more beautiful.

[0023] 4. In the present invention, the anti-collision tube assembly can also be composed of a first anti-collision tube and a second anti-collision tube, with the two anti-collision tubes connected end to end. The upper and lower ends of the second connecting bracket are simultaneously fixedly connected to the first anti-collision tube and the second anti-collision tube. Therefore, the connection strength between the second connecting bracket and the anti-collision component is stronger and more stable.

[0024] 5. In the present invention, the end of the first connecting bracket is provided with an undercut; the end of the second connecting bracket is provided with a notch for cooperating with the undercut. During installation, we can align and dock the undercut with the notch, which can quickly realize the installation and positioning between the anti-collision tube assembly and the side step assembly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0034] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0035] As Figures 1-7As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a detachable vehicle side step device, which includes an anti-collision tube assembly and a side step assembly; the anti-collision tube assembly and the side step assembly are detachably connected through a detachable connection structure. The detachable connection method enables the separation of the anti-collision tube assembly and the side step assembly when needed, without causing permanent damage to the two components.

[0036] Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, it is a schematic diagram of the connection structure between the anti-collision tube assembly and the second connecting bracket 21. In this embodiment, the anti-collision tube assembly is composed of a first anti-collision tube 20 and a second anti-collision tube 22. As Figure 5 shown, the second anti-collision tube 22 located below is a straight tube, and the left and right ends of the first anti-collision tube 20 located above are bent downward and respectively connected to the left and right ends of the second anti-collision tube 22. A spacing space 24 is formed between the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22 after end-to-end connection. And the second connecting bracket 21 is placed in this spacing space 24. Specifically, the upper and lower ends of the second connecting bracket 21 are fixedly connected to the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22 at the same time, that is, the upper end of the second connecting bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the first anti-collision tube 20, and the lower end of the second connecting bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second anti-collision tube 22.

[0037] Preferably, in this embodiment, the front-to-back width of the second connecting bracket 21 is smaller than the front-to-back width of the first anti-collision tube 20.

[0038] Preferably, the anti-collision tube assembly can also adopt a scheme that only includes the first anti-collision tube 20. At this time, the second connecting bracket 21 is welded to the lower end of the first anti-collision tube 20.

[0039] Of course, compared with the scheme of only using the first anti-collision tube 20 alone, Figure 5 as shown in the figure, the scheme of the anti-collision tube assembly (composed of the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22) can achieve a more firm connection between the second connecting bracket 21 and the anti-collision tube assembly. Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, the anti-collision tube assembly includes the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22, and the upper and lower ends of the second connecting bracket 21 are fixedly connected to the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22 at the same time (as Figure 3 shown), and there are relatively more connection parts, resulting in a stronger and more stable connection strength between the second connecting bracket 21 and the anti-collision tube assembly.

[0040] In addition, a second anti-collision tube 22 is added below the first anti-collision tube 20 to form Figure 5 the anti-collision tube assembly as shown in the figure. The first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22 simultaneously protect the vehicle body on the side of the vehicle body, and can achieve a better anti-collision effect on the side of the vehicle body.

[0041] As Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, two sets of pedal assemblies are connected to the anti-collision tube assembly. As Figure 4 shown, each side pedal assembly includes a side pedal support tube 10 and a side pedal 11 connected to the upper end of the side pedal support tube 10.

[0042] Two connecting brackets one 12 are connected to the rear end of each side pedal support tube 10, and the connecting bracket one 12 is welded to the tube end of the side pedal support tube 10. Correspondingly, each connecting bracket one 12 is connected to a connecting bracket two 21 through a set of bolt assemblies.

[0043] In this embodiment, the connecting bracket one 12, the connecting bracket two 21, the bolt one 40 and the spring nut 41 together form a detachable connection structure. The upper and lower ends of the connecting bracket two 21 are respectively welded to the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22 at the same time. The connecting bracket one 12 is welded to the tube end of the side pedal support tube 10. Installation through holes are provided on the connecting bracket one 12 and the connecting bracket two 21; as Figure 3 、 6 shown, the connecting bracket one 12 and the connecting bracket two 21 overlap front and back. The installation through holes on the connecting bracket one 12 and the installation through holes on the connecting bracket two 21 are aligned, and at the same time, the connecting bracket one 12 and the connecting bracket two 21 are locked by the bolt one 40 and the spring nut 41. When it needs to be removed, the bolt one 40 and the spring nut 41 can be taken off, so that the connecting bracket one 12 and the connecting bracket two 21 can be separated, and then the side pedal assembly can be disassembled.

[0044] In this embodiment, both the connecting bracket one 12 and the connecting bracket two 21 are L-shaped brackets. Since the connecting bracket two 21 is located in the spacing space 24 between the lower part of the first anti-collision tube 20 and the upper part of the second anti-collision tube 22 (as Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown), when the side pedal assembly is disassembled, the connecting bracket two 21 still remains entirely in the spacing space between the lower part of the first anti-collision tube 20 and the upper part of the second anti-collision tube 22; the front and back width of the connecting bracket two 21 is smaller than the front and back width of the first anti-collision tube 20, and the connecting bracket two 21 will not protrude outside the anti-collision tube assembly, so it will not cause collision to other objects or people on the side, reducing potential safety hazards. At the same time, the overall visual effect is also more beautiful.

[0045] In this embodiment, rapid installation and disassembly can be achieved between the side pedal assembly and the anti-collision tube assembly, providing multiple options for users, that is, users can choose to separately retain only the anti-collision tube assembly on the side of the vehicle body according to needs or choose to retain both the anti-collision tube assembly and the side pedal assembly at the same time; during installation, the installation position on the vehicle body can be only used for installing the anti-collision tube assembly, while the side pedal assembly is connected to the anti-collision tube assembly. In this embodiment, the anti-collision tube assembly is installed on the vehicle body side through four vehicle body mounting brackets 30.

[0046] When both the anti-collision pipe assembly and the side step assembly are retained on the vehicle body, it realizes adding a detachable side step assembly for boarding assistance on the basis of installing the anti-collision pipe, taking into account the common requirements of the anti-collision pipe and boarding assistance.

[0047] The first bolt 40 and the reed nut 41, as a pair of bolt assemblies, are used to firmly connect the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21, realizing the detachable connection between the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21; preferably, we can also choose other combinations of bolt assemblies. For example, using the traditional bolt and nut method can also assemble and connect the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21; in this embodiment, the reed nut is used because the installation method of the reed nut is not only simple but also has higher strength.

[0048] Preferably, in this embodiment, a gasket 13 is further provided between the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21. The gasket 13 can be a rubber gasket, and the gasket 13 can be pre-installed on the first connecting bracket 12 by means such as glue sticking (as Figure 4 shown). The setting of the gasket 13 helps to increase the fitting degree and friction force after the connection between the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21, and at the same time can play a buffering role to avoid the noise generated when the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21 interact with each other and the surface wear caused by friction.

[0049] In this embodiment, both the first connecting bracket 12 and the second connecting bracket 21 are L-shaped brackets, as Figure 3 、 6 shown. An inverted buckle 121 is provided at the rear end of the right side of the first connecting bracket 12; as Figure 3 and Figure 6 shown, the inverted buckle 121 is a protruding structure in a transverse bending shape; correspondingly, a notch 211 for cooperating with the inverted buckle 121 is provided at the rear end of the right side of the second connecting bracket 21, and the notch 211 is transversely concave (as Figure 6 shown).

[0050] During installation, the anti-collision tube assembly connected with the connecting bracket 21 is first fixed to the vehicle body, and then the side pedal assembly connected with the connecting bracket 12 is fixed to the anti-collision tube assembly; during the installation process, the installer holds up the side pedal assembly, and when the connecting bracket 12 and the connecting bracket 21 are overlapped and docked front and back, the undercut 121 can be inserted into the notch 211, which helps the connecting bracket 12 to grip the connecting bracket 21. The cooperation between the undercut 121 and the notch 211 can form a temporary support for the side pedal assembly, so that the installer can hold up the side pedal assembly more labor-savingly during the installation process, which is convenient for the subsequent tightening and installation of bolts and nuts. In addition, during installation, the notch 211 can also be used as an alignment and positioning reference, and the undercut 121 can be quickly aligned with the notch 211 and inserted, so that the connecting bracket 12 and the connecting bracket 21 can be accurately and quickly aligned and positioned, thereby improving the overall installation efficiency.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, after installation, the entirety of the connection combination of the connecting bracket 1 12 and the connecting bracket 2 21 is located in the spacing space between the first anti-collision tube 20 and the second anti-collision tube 22 .
