Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a tubular beam assembly and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] The tubular beam assembly of the relevant technology typically includes a tubular beam, a front support bracket, a reinforcing bracket, a front connecting bracket, and a steering column bracket. Furthermore, the components such as the tubular beam, front support bracket, reinforcing bracket, front connecting bracket, and steering column bracket can form a triangular projection on a plane perpendicular to the axis of the tubular beam, thereby improving the structural strength of the tubular beam assembly by utilizing the triangular structure.

[0003] However, due to the unreasonable structural design of the tubular beam assembly in the relevant technology, there are a large number of components used to form a triangular structure in the tubular beam assembly. For example, on the front side of the tubular beam assembly, a triangular structure is formed by multiple front brackets, front connecting brackets and multiple reinforcing brackets. The structural setting of the tubular beam is complicated, which not only makes it inconvenient to assemble, but also leads to a decrease in the structural strength of the tubular beam assembly, and cannot effectively improve the overall structural strength of the tubular beam assembly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one object of the present invention is to provide a tubular beam assembly that has the advantages of fewer parts, simple structure, easy assembly, and high overall structural stability.

[0005] The present invention also proposes a vehicle having the above-described tubular beam assembly.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, a tube beam assembly is provided according to a first aspect of the present invention, comprising: a tube beam adapted to be connected to the side panel of a vehicle; a display bracket connected to the tube beam and used for mounting a head-up display; a reinforcing bracket disposed on the front side of the tube beam and connected to the display bracket; a front panel connecting bracket connected to the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing bracket; and a steering column bracket, one end of which is connected to the tube beam, and the other end of which is connected to the front panel connecting bracket and / or the reinforcing bracket; wherein, a plane perpendicular to the axial direction of the tube beam is defined as a reference plane; the orthographic projections of the reinforcing bracket and the front panel connecting bracket on the reference plane are triangles; and the orthographic projections of the reinforcing bracket, the steering column bracket, the tube beam, and the display bracket on the reference plane are triangles; or, portions of the reinforcing bracket and the front panel connecting bracket, the steering column bracket, the tube beam, and the display bracket on the reference plane are triangles.

[0007] Therefore, by projecting the reinforcing bracket and the front bulkhead connecting bracket onto the reference plane as a triangle, the connection structure between the front bulkhead connecting bracket and the reinforcing bracket can be triangular. Due to the strong stability of a triangular structure, this significantly improves the connection strength between the front bulkhead connecting bracket and the reinforcing bracket, thereby greatly enhancing the overall structural strength of the tubular beam assembly. The tubular beam assembly can more stably and reliably fix the front bulkhead, resulting in stronger impact resistance. Furthermore, by forming a triangular structure for the reinforcing bracket and the front bulkhead connecting bracket, the structure of the tubular beam assembly is simplified, facilitating assembly. The number of components forming a triangular structure on the front side of the tubular beam assembly is also reduced, making the triangular structure less susceptible to damage, further improving the structural strength and overall stability of the tubular beam assembly.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0042] In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, and "several" means one or more.

[0043] The tube beam assembly 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] like Figures 1-9 As shown in the attached figure, the front-back direction is the front-back direction of the tube beam assembly 1, the up-down direction is the up-down direction of the tube beam assembly 1, and the left-right direction is the left-right direction of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0045] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the tube beam assembly 1 includes a tube beam 110, a display bracket 200, a reinforcing bracket 300, a front connecting bracket 400, and a steering column bracket 600.

[0046] The tube beam 110 is adapted to be connected to the side panel of the vehicle. The display bracket 200 is connected to the tube beam 110 and is used to install the head-up display 120. The reinforcing bracket 300 is located on the front side of the tube beam 110 and is connected to the display bracket 200. The front panel connecting bracket 400 is connected to the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing bracket 300 respectively. One end of the steering column bracket 600 is connected to the tube beam 110, and the other end of the steering column bracket 600 is connected to the front panel connecting bracket 400 and / or the reinforcing bracket 300.

[0047] Among them, the plane perpendicular to the axis of the tube beam 110 is defined as the reference plane, that is, the reference plane is perpendicular to the left and right directions.

[0048] Specifically, the orthographic projections of the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400 on the reference plane are triangles, and the orthographic projections of the reinforcing bracket 300, the steering column bracket 600, the tube beam 110, and the display bracket 200 on the reference plane are triangles; or, a portion of the reinforcing bracket 300, the front connecting bracket 400, the steering column bracket 600, the tube beam 110, and the display bracket 200 on the reference plane are triangles.

[0049] The tube beam 110 can extend in the left-right direction, and the monitor bracket 200 can extend in the front-back direction. One end of the monitor bracket 200 is connected to the tube beam 110, for example, by welding or bolting.

[0050] In addition, the reinforcing bracket 300 can extend vertically and is located on the front side of the tube beam 110. The reinforcing bracket 300 can be welded or bolted to the monitor bracket 200. This configuration not only fixes the position of the reinforcing bracket 300 but also improves the reliability of the fixation to the monitor bracket 200. The more stable fixation of the monitor bracket 200 enhances its support stability for the head-up display 120.

[0051] One end of the steering column bracket 600 can be connected to the front side of the tube beam 110, for example, by welding or bolting. The steering column bracket 600 can extend downwards from back to front. The end of the steering column bracket 600 away from the tube beam 110 can also be connected to the front connecting bracket 400 and / or the reinforcing bracket 300 by welding or bolting.

[0052] Additionally, the connection of the other end of the steering column bracket 600 to the front connecting bracket 400 and / or the reinforcing bracket 300 means that the other end of the steering column bracket 600 can be connected to the front connecting bracket 400, or the other end of the steering column bracket 600 can be connected to the reinforcing bracket 300, or the other end of the steering column bracket 600 can be connected to both the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300 simultaneously.

[0053] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the tube beam assembly 1 is constructed by connecting the display bracket 200 to the tube beam 110, and the reinforcing bracket 300 to the display bracket 200, connecting the front end bracket 400 to the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing bracket 300, and connecting one end of the steering column bracket 600 to the tube beam 110, and connecting the other end of the steering column bracket 600 to the front end bracket 400 and / or the reinforcing bracket 300.

[0054] With this configuration, the tube beam 110, the display bracket 200, the reinforcing bracket 300, the front connecting bracket 400, and the steering column bracket 600 can be connected into a whole, thereby improving the overall strength of the tube beam assembly 1. It also makes it easier for the tube beam assembly 1 to fix the head-up display 120 through the display bracket 200, and to connect and fix the front enclosure through the front connecting bracket 400.

[0055] In addition, by projecting the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400 onto the reference plane as a triangle, the connection structure between the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300 can be triangular. Since the triangular structure has strong stability, this can significantly improve the connection strength between the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300, thereby significantly improving the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1. The tube beam assembly 1 can more stably and reliably fix the front, and has stronger anti-collision capability.

[0056] Furthermore, by forming a triangular structure from the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400, the structure of the tube beam assembly 1 can be simplified and assembly can be made easier. In addition, the number of components forming a triangular structure on the front side of the tube beam assembly 1 is reduced, and the triangular structure is less likely to be damaged, which further improves the structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1 and makes the overall stability of the tube beam assembly 1 higher.

[0057] Furthermore, the orthographic projections of the reinforcing bracket 300, steering column bracket 600, tube beam 110, and display bracket 200 on the reference plane are also triangular. That is to say, the other end of the steering column bracket 600 can be connected to the reinforcing bracket 300, or the other end of the steering column bracket 600 can be connected to both the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400 at the same time. In this case, the orthographic projections of the reinforcing bracket 300, steering column bracket 600, tube beam 110, and display bracket 200 on the reference plane can also form a triangular structure. This can also improve the connection strength of components such as the reinforcing bracket 300, steering column bracket 600, tube beam 110, and display bracket 200, and further improve the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0058] Alternatively, the orthographic projection of the reinforcing bracket 300, part of the front connecting bracket 400, the steering column bracket 600, the tube beam 110, and the display bracket 200 on the reference plane can be a triangle. That is, the reinforcing bracket 300 is connected to the front connecting bracket 400, and the other end of the steering column bracket 600 can also be connected to the front connecting bracket 400. In this case, the orthographic projection of the reinforcing bracket 300, part of the front connecting bracket 400, the steering column bracket 600, the tube beam 110, and the display bracket 200 on the reference plane can be a triangle. This can improve the connection strength of the reinforcing bracket 300, the front connecting bracket 400, the steering column bracket 600, the tube beam 110, and the display bracket 200, and further improve the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0059] In addition, it should be noted that the orthographic projections of the front connecting bracket 400, steering column bracket 600, tube beam 110, and display bracket 200 on the reference plane are also triangular. That is to say, the orthographic projection of the outer contour of the tube beam assembly 1 on the reference plane is also triangular. In this way, the orthographic projection of the tube beam assembly 1 on the reference plane can not only form two small triangular structures, but the tube beam assembly 1 as a whole also has a triangular structure. Through the multiple triangles formed by the tube beam assembly 1, the structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1 can be greatly improved, the stability of the tube beam assembly 1 is higher, and the collision resistance of the tube beam assembly 1 is also stronger.

[0060] Thus, the tube beam assembly 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention has the advantages of fewer parts, simple structure, easy assembly and high overall structural stability.

[0061] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figures 3-7 As shown, one end of the front connecting bracket 400 is connected to the side of the upper end of the reinforcing bracket 300 facing away from the tube beam 110, and the other end of the front connecting bracket 400 is supported and connected to the lower side of the reinforcing bracket 300.

[0062] The front connecting bracket 400 can be bent, which makes it easy for both ends of the front connecting bracket 400 to be connected to the upper and lower ends of the reinforcing bracket 300 respectively, and also makes it easy for the two components, the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300, to form a triangular structure.

[0063] In addition, the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300 can be connected by welding or bolts.

[0064] Specifically, by connecting one end of the front connecting bracket 400 to the side of the upper end of the reinforcing bracket 300 facing away from the tube beam 110, the reinforcing bracket 300 can stop behind one end of the front connecting bracket 400 in the front-rear direction. Thus, the reinforcing bracket 300 can support the front connecting bracket 400. When the front of the tube beam assembly 1 is impacted, the reinforcing bracket 300 can support the front connecting bracket 400 from the rear. The front connecting bracket 400 is less likely to deform or shift, thereby improving the structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1 and making the tube beam assembly 1 more resistant to collisions.

[0065] In addition, the other end of the front connecting bracket 400 is supported and connected to the lower side of the reinforcing bracket 300. That is to say, the other end of the front connecting bracket 400 is located below the reinforcing bracket 300. With this arrangement, the front connecting bracket 400 can support and fix the reinforcing bracket 300 from below, which further improves the fixing stability of the reinforcing bracket 300. The connection stability between the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400 can be better, and the reinforcing bracket 300 can more reliably support the monitor bracket 200, so that the monitor bracket 200 can fix the head-up display 120 more stably.

[0066] In addition, it should be noted that flanges can be provided on opposite sides of the front connecting bracket 400 in the width direction. This is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the front connecting bracket 400 and increasing the connection contact area between the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300, making the connection more stable and reliable.

[0067] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1-7 As shown, the tube beam assembly 1 also includes a front mounting bracket 500, which is connected to the front side of the front connecting bracket 400, and at least one end of the front mounting bracket 500 is connected to the display bracket 200.

[0068] The front fascia mounting bracket 500 can extend in the left-right direction and is adapted to connect with the front fascia of the vehicle. Furthermore, the front fascia mounting bracket 500 and the front fascia connecting bracket 400 can be bolted together. For example, at least one mounting hole can be formed on the front fascia mounting bracket 500, and a corresponding number of mounting holes can be formed on the front fascia connecting bracket 400. The mounting holes on the front fascia mounting bracket 500 and the mounting holes on the front fascia connecting bracket 400 can be connected by bolts.

[0069] In addition, at least one end of the front mounting bracket 500 is connected to the monitor bracket 200. This means that, in the left-right direction, one end of the front mounting bracket 500 can be connected to the monitor bracket 200, or both ends of the front mounting bracket 500 can be connected to the monitor bracket 200 respectively. This can make the connection structure of the front mounting bracket 500, the front connecting bracket 400 and the monitor bracket 200 stronger, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1 and making the tube beam assembly 1 more resistant to collisions.

[0070] In addition, it should be noted that a reinforcing boss can be provided on the front mounting bracket 500, and flanges can be provided on opposite sides along the width direction of the front mounting bracket 500, which can further enhance the structural strength of the front mounting bracket 500.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, there are multiple monitor brackets 200, which are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the reinforcing bracket 300, and at least one of the monitor brackets 200 has its end away from the tube beam 110 connected to the front mounting bracket 500.

[0072] In other words, the two ends of the reinforcing bracket 300 in the left and right directions can be connected to the monitor bracket 200 respectively.

[0073] The monitor bracket 200 extends in the front-to-back direction, and multiple monitor brackets 200 can be distributed at intervals in the left-to-right direction. The multiple monitor brackets 200 can be divided into a first bracket 210 and a second bracket 220. The first bracket 210 and the second bracket 220 are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the reinforcing bracket 300. For example, the first bracket 210 can be located on the left side of the reinforcing bracket 300, and the second bracket 220 can be located on the right side of the reinforcing bracket 300.

[0074] Specifically, one end of the first bracket 210 can be connected to the pipe beam 110, and the other end of the first bracket 210 can be connected to the reinforcing bracket 300. In this way, the reinforcing bracket 300 can be connected to the pipe beam 110 through the first bracket 210, which is beneficial to strengthening the overall structural strength of the pipe beam assembly 1.

[0075] In addition, one end of the second bracket 220 can be connected to the tube beam 110, and the other end of the second bracket 220 can be connected to the front mounting bracket 500. Furthermore, the right end of the reinforcing bracket 300 can be connected to the middle of the second bracket 220. In this way, the second bracket 220, the reinforcing bracket 300, the tube beam 110 and the front mounting bracket can be connected together, further strengthening the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0076] Moreover, this configuration can form multiple force transmission paths. After the tube beam assembly 1 is impacted, the impact force can be transmitted along multiple components. This allows the impact force to be dispersed along multiple branches, ensuring the stress balance of the tube beam assembly 1 structure and further improving the impact resistance of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0077] In addition, it should be noted that the end of the first bracket 210 away from the tube beam 110 is connected to the reinforcing bracket 300, and the end of the second bracket 220 away from the tube beam 110 is connected to the front mounting bracket 500. With this arrangement, the tube beam assembly 1 can form a clearance space at the end of the front mounting bracket 500 away from the second bracket 220, thereby avoiding positional interference between the tube beam assembly 1 and other parts of the vehicle, facilitating the installation layout, and making the structural setting more reasonable.

[0078] Of course, it is understandable that, without interference between components, the ends of the first bracket 210 and the second bracket 220 that are away from the tube beam 110 can be connected to the front mounting bracket 500, which can further strengthen the connection strength of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0079] Reinforcing bosses can be provided on both the first bracket 210 and the second bracket 220 to enhance the structural strength of both brackets. This results in higher structural strength for the monitor bracket 200, improving not only the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1 but also the stability of the monitor bracket 200 in supporting the head-up display 120, making the head-up display 120 more securely and reliably fixed. Furthermore, multiple reinforcing bosses can be provided, and these bosses can be arranged at intervals along the length of the monitor bracket 200.

[0080] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 6-9 As shown, the front connecting bracket 400 includes a first connecting section 410, a transition section 420, and a second connecting section 430.

[0081] The first connecting section 410 extends horizontally, and one end of the first connecting section 410 is connected to the side of the upper end of the reinforcing bracket 300 facing away from the tube beam 110. In other words, the first connecting section 410 can extend in the front-rear direction, which makes it easier for the front connecting bracket 400 to connect with the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front mounting bracket 500 respectively.

[0082] In addition, one end of the transition section 420 is connected to the other end of the first connecting section 410, and the transition section 420 is bent downward relative to the first connecting section 410. The front mounting bracket 500 is connected to the front side of the transition section 420, that is, the transition section 420 can extend in the vertical direction. With this configuration, the front mounting bracket 500 can also extend in the vertical direction after it is connected to the transition section 420, so that the front mounting bracket 500 can fix the front. This also makes the connection area between the front mounting bracket 500 and the front connecting bracket 400 larger, which helps to ensure that the connection strength between the front mounting bracket 500 and the front connecting bracket 400 is greater and the connection is more stable.

[0083] Furthermore, one end of the second connecting section 430 is connected to the other end of the transition section 420, and the second connecting section 430 extends downward at an angle. The other end of the second connecting section 430 is connected to the reinforcing bracket 300 and the steering column bracket 600, respectively. This facilitates the connection of one end of the front bulkhead connecting bracket 400 to the front bulkhead mounting bracket 500, and the other end to the reinforcing bracket 300 and the steering column bracket 600, respectively. Moreover, the downward extension of the second connecting section 430 facilitates the formation of a triangular structure between the front bulkhead connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300.

[0084] The transition section 420 can be connected to the first connecting section 410 and the second connecting section 430 by using a rounded transition, which can avoid stress concentration in the front connecting bracket 400.

[0085] In addition, flanges can be provided on both sides of the width direction of the first connecting section 410, both sides of the width direction of the transition section 420, and both sides of the width direction of the second connecting section 430, which can further enhance the structural strength of the front connecting bracket 400.

[0086] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first connecting segment 410 is provided with at least one first reinforcing structure 411, which extends along the length direction of the first connecting segment 410; and / or the second connecting segment 430 is provided with at least one second reinforcing structure 431, which extends along the length direction of the second connecting segment 430.

[0087] The first reinforcing structure 411 can be a reinforcing rib or a reinforcing boss, and the second reinforcing structure 431 can also be a reinforcing rib or a reinforcing boss. Furthermore, one or more first reinforcing structures 411 can be provided, and multiple first reinforcing structures 411 can be arranged along the width direction of the first connecting segment 410; similarly, one or more second reinforcing structures 431 can be provided, and multiple second reinforcing structures 431 can be arranged along the width direction of the second connecting segment 430.

[0088] Furthermore, the first reinforcing structure 411 extends along the length of the first connecting section 410, and the second reinforcing structure 431 extends along the length of the second connecting section 430. This can significantly improve the structural strength of the first connecting section 410 and the second connecting section 430, further enhancing the overall structural strength of the front connecting bracket 400 and making it more resistant to collisions.

[0089] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 6-8 As shown, the reinforcing bracket 300 includes a first plate 310 and a second plate 320.

[0090] The first plate 310 extends horizontally, and both ends of the first plate 310 are respectively connected to multiple display brackets 200. The second plate 320 extends vertically, and the upper end of the second plate 320 is connected to the first plate 310.

[0091] The front connecting bracket 400 is connected to the first plate 310 and the second plate 320 respectively, and the front connecting bracket 400 is supported and connected to the lower side of the second plate 320, so that the front connecting bracket 400 can support and fix the reinforcing bracket 300 from below.

[0092] Specifically, the first plate 310 extends in the left-right direction and the second plate 320 extends in the up-down direction, so that the reinforcing bracket 300 can be in a "T" shape, so that the left and right ends of the first plate 310 can be connected to multiple display brackets 200 respectively, and the first plate 310 and the second plate 320 can be connected to the front connecting bracket 400 respectively, thereby realizing that the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400 are connected to form a triangular structure.

[0093] Moreover, by setting only one reinforcing bracket 300, the number of parts in the tube beam assembly 1 can be reduced, and the connection stability between the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400 can be improved.

[0094] The first plate 310 and the second plate 320 can both have flanges on opposite sides in the width direction, which improves the structural strength of both plates 310 and 320. Furthermore, the flanges on the first plate 310 can contact and connect with the flanges on the monitor bracket 200, increasing the welding area between the front connecting bracket 400 and the monitor bracket 200, thus enhancing their connection strength.

[0095] In addition, weight-reduction holes 321 can be provided on the reinforcing bracket 300. For example, weight-reduction holes 321 can be provided on the second plate 320. The weight-reduction holes 321 penetrate the reinforcing bracket 300 along its thickness direction, which can reduce the weight of the reinforcing bracket 300, thereby reducing the overall weight of the tube beam assembly 1. This is beneficial for achieving lightweighting of the tube beam assembly 1 and thus improving the vehicle's range. Furthermore, a reinforcing ring edge can be provided around the weight-reduction hole 321 to ensure the structural strength of the reinforcing bracket 300.

[0096] In addition, one end of the front connecting bracket 400 is connected to the first plate 310, that is, the first plate 310 and the front connecting bracket 400 can support each other in the front-rear direction, and the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300 are less likely to shake, which is conducive to improving the structural stability of the tube beam assembly 1.

[0097] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 , Figures 6-8 As shown, the upper side of the reinforcing bracket 300 is provided with at least one first mounting part 311, and the upper side of each of the plurality of monitor brackets 200 is provided with at least one second mounting part 211. The first mounting part 311 and the second mounting part 211 are used to connect the head-up display 120.

[0098] Both the first mounting part 311 and the second mounting part 211 can be configured as mounting holes, that is, the reinforcing bracket 300 and the head-up display 120, as well as the display bracket 200 and the head-up display 120 can be connected by bolts.

[0099] In addition, the mounting holes on the reinforcing bracket 300 can be multiple, and the multiple mounting holes can be arranged at intervals along the left and right direction on the upper side of the reinforcing bracket 300. Also, the mounting holes on the monitor bracket 200 can be multiple, and the multiple mounting holes can be arranged at intervals along the front and back direction on the upper side of the monitor bracket 200.

[0100] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 and Figures 6-8 As shown, the steering column support 600 includes a main body 610, a plurality of support arms 620 and at least one reinforcing part 621.

[0101] One end of the main body 610 is connected to the front connecting bracket 400, and the two ends of the support arm 620 are respectively connected to the other end of the main body 610 and the tube beam 110. Multiple support arms 620 are arranged along the width direction of the main body 610 and are close to the tube beam 110 along the length direction of the support arm 620. Adjacent support arms 620 gradually move away from each other. A reinforcing part 621 is provided between two adjacent support arms 620 and is connected to the main body 610 and the support arm 620 respectively. The reinforcing part 621 protrudes from one side of the thickness direction of the support arm 620.

[0102] The main body 610 can be provided with flanges on both opposite sides in the width direction, which can strengthen the structural strength of the main body 610. When the main body 610 is connected to the front connecting bracket 400, the flanges of the main body 610 can also overlap the flanges of the front connecting bracket 400 for welding, which can increase the welding area and improve the connection strength between the steering column bracket 600 and the front connecting bracket 400.

[0103] In addition, a flange can also be provided on the outer side of the support arm 620 in the width direction. This can improve the structural strength of the support arm 620 and make the welding area between the support arm 620 and the tube beam 110 larger, thereby improving the connection strength between the steering column support 600 and the tube beam 110.

[0104] Furthermore, by setting multiple support arms 620, multiple support arms 620 can be connected to the tube beam 110 simultaneously, which further improves the connection strength between the steering column bracket 600 and the tube beam 110. In the left and right direction, a reinforcing part 621, i.e. a reinforcing protrusion, can be set between adjacent support arms 620. This can connect adjacent support arms 620 through the reinforcing part 621, which helps to improve the overall structural strength of the steering column bracket 600. The steering column bracket 600 can fix the steering column 700 more stably and reliably.

[0105] Additionally, it should be noted that the tube beam assembly 1 may also include multiple steering column mounting brackets 630. The multiple steering column mounting brackets 630 are connected to the rear side of the tube beam 110 and are spaced apart along the axial direction of the tube beam 110. The multiple steering column mounting brackets 630 may also be connected to the steering column 700, further improving the fixing reliability of the steering column 700.

[0106] The vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The vehicle includes a tubular beam assembly 1 according to the above embodiment of the present invention.

[0107] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, the connection structure between the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300 of the tube beam assembly 1 is triangular. Due to the strong stability of the triangular structure, this significantly improves the connection strength between the front connecting bracket 400 and the reinforcing bracket 300, thereby greatly enhancing the overall structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1. The tube beam assembly 1 can more stably and reliably fix the front end, resulting in stronger impact resistance. Furthermore, by forming a triangular structure between the reinforcing bracket 300 and the front connecting bracket 400, the structure of the tube beam assembly 1 is simplified, facilitating assembly. Additionally, the number of components forming a triangular structure on the front side of the tube beam assembly 1 is reduced, making the triangular structure less susceptible to damage, further improving the structural strength of the tube beam assembly 1 and resulting in higher overall stability.

[0108] The vehicle according to the embodiments of the present invention, by utilizing the tube beam assembly 1 according to the above embodiments of the present invention, has the advantages of fewer parts, simple structure, easy assembly and high overall structural stability.
