[0029] The following combines Figures 1 to 7 , and through specific embodiments and their application scenarios, the suspension crossbeam assembly and its design and matching method provided by the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail.
[0030] In the embodiments of the present invention, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 includes at least two crossbeams 35, a first connection bracket 31, a second connection bracket 32 and a plurality of first connectors 36. The crossbeams 35 are arranged in a sheet shape, and at least two crossbeams 35 are arranged side by side in a first direction. Both ends of the crossbeam 35 in the first direction are respectively provided with a first connection hole 351 and a second connection hole 352; the first connection bracket 31 is arranged at one end of the crossbeam 35 in the first direction, the second connection bracket 32 is arranged at the other end of the crossbeam 35 in the first direction, the first connection bracket 31 is provided with a plurality of first fixing holes 341, and the second connection bracket 32 is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes 342; a plurality of first connectors 36 are respectively passed between the first connection hole 351 and the first fixing hole 341 and between the second connection hole 352 and the second fixing hole 342 to respectively fixedly connect the first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32 to both ends of the crossbeam 35.
[0031] The crossbeam 35 is the main load-bearing component of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3. At least two crossbeams 35 are arranged side by side in the first direction, which not only enhances the overall strength and stiffness of the structure, but also can better disperse and bear the load from the vehicle frame. The arrangement of multiple crossbeams 35 enables the assembly to better adapt to complex stress environments and improves the stability and durability of the suspension system.
[0032] Compared with the traditional C-shaped or box-shaped structures, the sheet-shaped crossbeam 35 design has a lighter weight and better flexibility. It helps to release the torsional stiffness of the suspension system, enabling the vehicle frame assembly to deform better when subjected to torsional loads, thereby improving the driving stability and riding comfort of the vehicle. In addition, the sheet-shaped crossbeam 35 is also easier to process and manufacture, reducing the production cost.
[0033] At both ends of the crossbeam 35 in the first direction, a first connection hole 351 and a second connection hole 352 are respectively provided. The connection holes are provided for fixed connection with connection brackets and connecting parts. The first connection hole 351 and the second connection hole 352 are respectively located at both ends of the crossbeam 35, ensuring that the connection bracket can be firmly fixed on the crossbeam 35. This makes the structure of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 more compact and stable, and can bear greater loads and impact forces.
[0034] The first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32. The connection brackets are the connecting components between the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 and the vehicle frame assembly. The first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32 are respectively provided at both ends of the crossbeam 35, playing a role in supporting and fixing the crossbeam 35. Multiple fixing holes are provided on the connection brackets for cooperation with the connecting parts to achieve a firm connection with the crossbeam 35. This design enhances the connection strength between the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 and the vehicle frame assembly and improves the stability and safety of the whole vehicle.
[0035] Multiple first fixing holes 341 and second fixing holes 342 are respectively provided on the first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32. The fixing holes are provided for cooperation with the connecting parts to achieve the fixed connection between the connection bracket and the crossbeam 35. The design of multiple fixing holes makes the connection more flexible and reliable, and can adapt to different installation requirements and stress environments. At the same time, the fixing holes also play a positioning role to ensure that the connection bracket can be accurately installed on the crossbeam 35.
[0036] A plurality of first connecting members 36 are respectively disposed between the first connection holes 351 and the first fixing holes 341, and between the second connection holes 352 and the second fixing holes 342. The connecting members are key components in the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 that connect the crossbeam 35 and the connection bracket. A plurality of connecting members are respectively disposed between the connection holes and the fixing holes, and the connection bracket is firmly fixed to the crossbeam 35 through a fastening action. This connection method is not only simple and reliable, but also easy to disassemble and replace, reducing the maintenance cost. At the same time, the connecting members also play a role in transmitting loads and dispersing stresses, improving the overall load-bearing capacity and durability of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3.
[0037] In this application, the two ends of the two crossbeams 35 are assembled with the first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32 through connecting members to form the suspension crossbeam assembly 3. Since the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is assembled in the form of connecting members, complex welding processes are avoided. And for the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 of the present invention, its overall structure is a sheet-shaped crossbeam 35, which appropriately releases the torsional stiffness of the C-shaped structure, is more conducive to the torsional deformation of the frame assembly, so that the maximum stress of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 drops from 418 MPa to 209 MPa, and the stress distribution of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is greatly improved. At the same time, the structure of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 of the present invention is simple, highly reliable, and easy to maintain.
[0038] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , according to a suspension crossbeam assembly 3 provided by the present invention, the first connection bracket 31 or the second connection bracket 32 both includes a base 33 and two connecting arms 34. The two connecting arms 34 are respectively disposed on both sides of the base 33 and are bent toward the side facing the crossbeam 35. A plurality of first fixing holes 341 or a plurality of second fixing holes 342 are symmetrically disposed in pairs on the two connecting arms 34.
[0039] It can be understood that the first connection bracket 31 or the second connection bracket 32 includes a base 33 and two connecting arms 34, which increases the stability and strength of the connection bracket. The base 33 provides a solid foundation, and the connecting arms 34 are used to connect the crossbeam 35 to form a stable support structure. The design of the base 33 and the connecting arms 34 enables the connection bracket to better withstand the forces and torques from the crossbeam 35.
[0040] The two connecting arms 34 are respectively disposed on both sides of the base 33 and are bent toward the side facing the crossbeam 35. The bent design of the connecting arms 34 helps to better adapt to the shape and position of the crossbeam 35, and at the same time provides a uniform force distribution, reducing local stress concentration. The bent design enables the connecting arms 34 to closely fit the crossbeam 35, improving the stability of the connection.
[0041] A plurality of first fixing holes 341 or a plurality of second fixing holes 342 are symmetrically arranged in pairs on the two connecting arms 34. The symmetrically distributed fixing holes ensure the uniform distribution of the connecting members, thereby providing uniform force transmission and better load dispersion. The symmetric design helps to balance the forces at both ends of the crossbeam 35 and reduce distortion or deformation caused by improper assembly. Refer to Figure 3 According to a suspension crossbeam assembly 3 provided by the present invention, a plurality of mounting holes 331 are formed in the base 33. The base 33 is connected to the left leaf spring combination bracket 1 or the right leaf spring combination bracket 2 by a second connecting member passing through the mounting holes 331.
[0042] It can be understood that the mounting holes 331 are formed in the base 33, and their positions and numbers are determined according to the specific design and installation requirements of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3. Usually, these holes are evenly distributed on the base 33 to ensure the uniform distribution of the connecting members, thereby providing a stable connection. The shapes and sizes of the mounting holes 331 match the second connecting members used to ensure that the connecting members can pass through the holes smoothly and be firmly connected to the leaf spring combination bracket. Common shapes include circular, oval or square, etc., and the sizes are determined according to the specifications of the connecting members.
[0043] The second connecting member (such as bolts, nuts, rivets, etc.) passes through the mounting holes 331 to connect the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 with the left leaf spring combination bracket 1 or the right leaf spring combination bracket 2. This connection method is not only simple and reliable, but also easy to disassemble and replace, facilitating maintenance and repair. The second connecting member also plays a role in transmitting loads. When the vehicle is running, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is subjected to various forces and vibrations from the road surface. These forces and vibrations are transmitted to the leaf spring combination bracket through the second connecting member, and then dispersed to other parts of the vehicle frame to ensure the stability and safety of the vehicle.
[0044] Refer to Figure 3 According to a suspension crossbeam assembly 3 provided by the present invention, an assembly process round hole 332 is formed in the middle of the base 33.
[0045] It can be understood that the design of the assembly process round hole 332 is mainly used to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of key components (such as leaf spring pins) in the leaf spring combination bracket, thereby simplifying the entire assembly and maintenance process. The assembly process round hole 332 provides additional operating space for the operator, making it more convenient to install or disassemble the leaf spring combination bracket. For example, when installing the leaf spring pin, it is easier to align and insert the pin through the round hole, reducing the assembly difficulty.
[0046] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 According to a suspension crossbeam assembly 3 provided by the present invention, the crossbeam 35 is arranged in a shape like a yuanbao with higher ends and lower middle.
[0047] It can be understood that the ingot-shaped design makes the middle part of the crossbeam 35 lower, which can reserve sufficient space for the middle position of the vehicle frame, facilitating the arrangement of key components such as the gearbox and the drive shaft. This design is particularly suitable for vehicles such as heavy dump trucks that require complex chassis layouts. By reasonably utilizing the chassis space, the ingot-shaped crossbeam 35 can achieve the best functional layout within a limited space, avoid interference with other components, and improve the overall design efficiency of the whole vehicle.
[0048] The ingot-shaped design effectively disperses the acting forces from the leaf spring and other loads by changing the cross-sectional shape of the crossbeam 35, reducing the phenomenon of local stress concentration. Especially under complex working conditions, reasonable stress distribution can significantly extend the service life of the crossbeam 35. By optimizing the stress distribution, the ingot-shaped crossbeam 35 can reduce the risk of material fatigue, improve the durability and reliability of the overall structure, and reduce the fracture failure caused by stress concentration.
[0049] Refer to Figure 4 , according to a suspension crossbeam assembly 3 provided by the present invention, the first connection hole 351 and the second connection hole 352 are oval holes, wherein the long axis of the oval hole extends along the first direction.
[0050] It can be understood that a plurality of circular weight-reducing holes 353 are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the crossbeam 35. The mounting holes 331 at both ends of the crossbeam 35 are long oval holes, which are used to adjust the lateral distance tolerance of the installation of the left leaf spring combination bracket 1 and the right leaf spring combination bracket 2, avoiding the generation of prestress during the assembly of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 and affecting the reliability of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3.
[0051] In one embodiment, the first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32 are made of a metal material with a fracture elongation rate greater than 15%.
[0052] It can be understood that the fracture elongation rate (also known as the elongation after fracture) refers to the maximum plastic deformation capacity that a material can withstand before fracture in a tensile test, usually expressed as a percentage. The higher the fracture elongation rate, the better the toughness of the material, and it can absorb more energy without brittle fracture. A material with a fracture elongation rate greater than 15% has higher toughness and ductility, can absorb more energy when subjected to impact or load, and reduce the risk of fracture.
[0053] Selecting a metal material with a fracture elongation rate greater than 15% ensures that the connection bracket has sufficient strength and toughness to meet the requirements of practical applications, taking into account the effects of static loads and dynamic loads. Through reasonable material selection, not only the performance of the connection bracket is improved, but also the overall performance and reliability of the entire suspension system are enhanced.
[0054] In one embodiment, the thickness of the first connection bracket 31 and the second connection bracket 32 is 1.5 times the thickness of the crossbeam 35.
[0055] It is understandable that the connecting bracket, as the connection point between the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 and the vehicle frame or other components, bears forces and torques from multiple directions. By increasing the thickness of the connecting bracket, its load-bearing capacity can be significantly improved, thereby enhancing the overall structural strength of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3.
[0056] During long-term driving, the suspension system will experience frequent vibrations, impacts, and load changes. A thicker connecting bracket can better resist the influence of these factors, reduce cracks and deformations caused by fatigue, and thus improve the durability of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3.
[0057] By reasonably designing the thickness ratio between the connecting bracket and the crossbeam 35, the stress distribution inside the suspension system can be optimized. A thicker connecting bracket can better disperse and transfer the forces from the vehicle frame or other components, reduce the phenomenon of local stress concentration, and thus extend the service life of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3.
[0058] Referring to Figures 5 to 7 , the present invention also provides a design matching method for the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, which is applied to the above-mentioned suspension crossbeam assembly 3. The torsional ratio stress of the front crossbeam 4 is , the torsional ratio stress of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is , and the torsional ratio stress of the three crossbeams 5 of the vehicle frame is ; then the torsional ratio stresses among the front crossbeam 4, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, and the three crossbeams 5 of the vehicle frame are < < ; The bending ratio stress of the front crossbeam 4 is , the bending ratio stress of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is , and the bending ratio stress of the three crossbeams 5 of the vehicle frame is ; then the bending ratio stresses among the front crossbeam 4, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, and the three crossbeams 5 of the vehicle frame are < < .
[0059] Furthermore, the torsional ratio stress of the crossbeam is defined as ; the bending ratio stress of the crossbeam is defined as ; In the formula: is the end torque of the vehicle frame crossbeam; is the torsional section modulus of the vehicle frame crossbeam; is the torsional angle under the action of the end torque T of the vehicle frame crossbeam; is the bending moment of the vehicle frame crossbeam; is the bending section modulus of the vehicle frame crossbeam; is the end load of the vehicle frame crossbeam; is the width of the frame crossbeam; is the displacement under the action of the end load F of the frame.
[0060] The present invention conducts crossbeam matching design from the perspective of specific stress, effectively improving the stress distribution of the crossbeam, and providing effective theoretical support for the forward R & D design of this type of product.
[0061] Specifically, the torsional specific stress of the front crossbeam 4, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, and the three crossbeams 5 of the frame satisfies the following conditions < < , and the bending specific stress satisfies the following conditions < < . The torsional specific stresses of the front crossbeam 4, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, and the three crossbeams 5 of the frame are respectively , and , and the bending specific stresses of the front crossbeam 4, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, and the three crossbeams 5 of the frame are , and .
[0062] The torsional specific stress of the crossbeam is defined as , and the bending specific stress of the crossbeam is defined as ; where is the end torque of the frame crossbeam; is the torsional section modulus of the frame crossbeam; is the torsional angle under the action of the end torque T of the frame crossbeam; is the bending moment of the frame crossbeam; is the bending section modulus of the frame crossbeam; is the end load of the frame crossbeam; is the width of the frame crossbeam; is the displacement under the action of the end load F of the frame.
[0063] The torsional specific stress of the frame crossbeam characterizes the stress magnitude generated by the unit torsional deformation of the frame crossbeam, and the bending specific stress of the frame crossbeam characterizes the stress magnitude generated by the unit bending deformation of the frame crossbeam. The torsional specific stress and the bending specific stress of the frame crossbeam are only related to the shape and size of the frame crossbeam section. Since the frame crossbeam has a variable cross-section, the direct calculation of the above-mentioned torsional specific stress and bending specific stress of the frame is relatively complex, and the finite element software and combined with formulas can be used for calculation. The calculation results of the torsional specific stress and the bending specific stress of the frame crossbeam in this scheme are shown in Table 1.
[0064] Table 1 is the calculation result of the crossbeam specific stress
[0065] Specifically, the design matching principle of the torsion ratio stress and the crossbeam bending ratio stress is as follows: For heavy-duty dump trucks to adapt to the complex torsion working condition environment, diagonal torsion deformation will occur on the longitudinal beams on both sides of the frame assembly; the crossbeams connecting the two longitudinal beams of the frame (such as the front crossbeam 4, the suspension crossbeam assembly 3, and the frame triple crossbeam 5) will undergo torsion deformation and bending deformation driven by the longitudinal beams. At this time, the displacement change amount at the end of the front crossbeam 4 is h1, the displacement change amount at the end of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is h2, and the displacement change amount at the end of the frame triple crossbeam 5 is h3; from the frame deformation displacement coordination relationship, the displacement change amount h1 > h2 > h3; to ensure uniform stress distribution of the frame crossbeams and avoid the problem of excessive local stress in a certain crossbeam during the diagonal torsion deformation of the longitudinal beams, the torsion ratio stress and the crossbeam bending ratio stress of each crossbeam need to satisfy the above relationship.
[0066] Referring to Figure 7 , the frame assembly, a finite element model under the condition of the frame's complex torsion working condition is established. From its simulation results, it can be seen that the maximum stress of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3a in this solution is 209 MPa, and the maximum stress of the original suspension crossbeam assembly 3b (initial structure) is 418 MPa. The safety factor of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is increased to 1.5; and the stress distribution of the suspension crossbeam assembly 3 is greatly improved.
[0067] Finally, it should be noted that: The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: They can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
