AI Technical Summary
When faced with high-intensity frontal or lateral impacts, the transverse U-beam structure of the existing commercial vehicle front assembly is not strong enough, causing the front assembly to deform and threatening the safety of the driver and passengers. At the same time, although the extensive use of aluminum alloy materials reduces weight, it also results in lower safety.
The front bulkhead inner panel structure, made of aluminum alloy, is combined with a transverse U-shaped beam structure and a longitudinal torsion beam structure made of steel with a strength higher than the preset strength to form a cage-like structure. The vehicle's resistance to deformation is enhanced by the fixed connection between the longitudinal torsion beam, the transverse U-beam, and the floor structure.
The rigidity and stability of the front bulkhead assembly have been improved, ensuring that the interior space of the driver's cab does not deform during a collision, thus protecting the safety of the occupants, while also achieving effective weight reduction.

[0042] In order to clearly describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the following briefly introduces some terms and technologies involved in the embodiments of the present application:
[0043] Vehicle front wall assembly: The vehicle front wall assembly is located in the front part of the automobile, and the specific position is between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment. It not only plays the role of isolating the engine compartment and the passenger compartment, but also has an important role in the rigidity, crash safety and other aspects of the whole vehicle. The front wall assembly usually includes a support structure for mounting the instrument panel, steering column, pedal and other components.
[0044] Transverse U-shaped beam: The transverse U-shaped beam (also known as transverse U-beam or cross beam) of the automobile is an important component in the vehicle structure, mainly used to enhance the rigidity and safety of the vehicle body. It is usually located in the front wall assembly or other key positions, and plays the role of transmitting and dispersing loads.
[0045] Longitudinal torsion beam: The longitudinal torsion beam of the automobile usually refers to a structural component installed on the chassis of the vehicle, mainly used to enhance the rigidity of the vehicle body, transmit and disperse loads, and in some cases, play a part of the suspension system.
[0046] Wiper reinforcement plate: The wiper reinforcement plate of the automobile, also known as the wiper reinforcement plate or the front windshield wiper support plate, is an important component in the vehicle front wall assembly. Its main role is to provide a solid support structure for the installation of the wiper system and enhance the overall rigidity of the front wall area.
[0047] Outer panel of frame: The outer panel of frame of a car, usually refers to the metal sheet that covers the exterior of the vehicle body, which constitutes the main part of the vehicle appearance. These outer panels not only play a role in appearance, but also have an important influence on the overall rigidity, safety and durability of the vehicle body.
[0048] Opposite hand tool: In the field of vehicle manufacturing and maintenance, opposite hand tool usually refers to the parts that appear in pairs and work together. These parts may have similar or complementary functions, and they work together to achieve a specific mechanical function or system operation.
[0049] With the rapid development of the automotive industry, consumers' attention to vehicle safety is increasing. Today, vehicles are not just a means of transportation, but also an important barrier to protect the lives of drivers and passengers. The progress of modern technology not only greatly improves the performance and comfort of cars, but also makes manufacturers pay more attention to safety in the design and manufacturing process.
[0050] Whether it is an active safety system (such as automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assistance, etc.) or a passive safety system (such as high-strength body structure, multi-airbag configuration, etc.), it is constantly improving the vehicle's ability to respond to various complex road conditions and unexpected situations.
[0051] The front end assembly of the vehicle is a crucial part of the vehicle body structure, which plays a key role in improving the overall safety of the vehicle. The front end assembly not only affects the performance of the vehicle in the frontal collision, but also plays an important protective role in the integrity of the passenger compartment and the safety of the driver and passenger.
[0052] The front end assembly of the existing commercial vehicle adopts reverse design, and the device is changed according to the environment. The front end panel structure installs the environmental component, and the transverse U-shaped beam structure transmits force horizontally. When facing high-intensity frontal or side impact, the structural strength of the transverse U-shaped beam is insufficient, which causes the deformation of the vehicle front end assembly, extruding the interior space of the cab and threatening the safety of the driver and passenger.
[0053] Under the concept of weight reduction, most vehicles use large-area aluminum alloy materials as the material of the vehicle front end assembly. Although this material achieves effective weight reduction, the use of aluminum alloy materials on a large scale makes it difficult to achieve collision safety.
[0054] Therefore, under the premise of effectively reducing the weight, it is necessary to effectively improve the safety of the vehicle front end assembly, which is a problem to be solved at present.
[0055] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle front end structure and a vehicle, which can be used in the field of vehicle manufacturing technology, and aims to solve the above technical problems of the prior art.
[0056] Figure 1 The scene schematic diagram of the vehicle front end structure provided by the embodiment of the present application. It should be noted that,Figure 1 The examples shown are merely examples of scenarios in which the embodiments of this application can be applied, to help those skilled in the art understand the technical content of this application, but do not mean that the embodiments of this application cannot be used in other devices, systems, environments or scenarios.
[0057] like Figure 2 The diagram illustrates a scenario of a vehicle front structure, including: a vehicle front structure 100, a vehicle 200, and an obstacle 300.
[0058] The vehicle front bulkhead structure 100 is located between the engine compartment and the driver's compartment of the vehicle 200, serving to isolate the engine compartment and the driver's compartment and improve the overall rigidity and collision resistance of the vehicle. The vehicle front bulkhead structure 100 includes a front inner panel structure 110, a transverse U-shaped beam structure 120, a longitudinal torsion beam structure 130, and a floor structure 140. The longitudinal torsion beam structure 130 is fixedly connected to the front inner panel structure 110, its upper end forms a cavity with the transverse U-shaped beam structure 120 and is fixedly connected, and its lower end forms a cavity with the front inner panel structure 110 and the floor structure 140 and is fixedly connected. The longitudinal torsion beam 130 uses a U-shaped structure and high-strength steel. The longitudinal torsion beam structure 130, the transverse U-shaped beam structure 120, and the floor structure 140 form a cage-like structure. When the commercial vehicle is subjected to high-intensity forward or lateral forces, part of the force on the transverse U-shaped beam structure is transferred to the floor through the longitudinal torsion beam structure.
[0059] When vehicle 200 encounters obstacle 300 in front and cannot avoid it in time, vehicle 200 is subjected to a frontal impact. The longitudinal torsion beam structure 130 of the front structure 100, together with the transverse U-shaped beam structure 120 and the floor structure 140, forms a cage-like structure. When vehicle 200 is subjected to high-intensity forward or lateral forces, part of the force on the transverse U-shaped beam structure 120 is transferred to the floor structure 140 through the longitudinal torsion beam structure. This can resist front deformation, ensure the interior space of the driver's cab, and protect the lives of the occupants.

One side of the narrower section of the outer longitudinal torsion beam 131 is fixed to the front inner panel structure 110, while a gap is reserved on the other side. Furthermore, the outer longitudinal torsion beam 131 is located outside the front inner panel structure 110, at a certain distance from the opponent, which can increase the cross-sectional area of the cavity.
