[0063] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0064] Environmental perception capability is a prerequisite for realizing vehicle autonomous driving. Autonomous driving can only be achieved by accurately and quickly perceiving the environment around the vehicle. Usually, environmental perception devices can be, for example, cameras, radars, etc.

[0065] Usually, if the position of the radar or camera installed on the vehicle cannot be adjusted, due to factors such as installation errors, the radar or camera is prone to field of view offset, or the vehicle body blocks the field of view, affecting the use effect.

[0066] In view of this, the mounting bracket, radar assembly and vehicle provided by the utility model make the angle between the connecting rod and the support arm adjustable, and the first locking assembly is connected to the connecting rod and the support arm, so that the angle between the connecting rod and the support arm is stably locked to prevent the angle from changing at will, thereby solving the problem that it is inconvenient to adjust the angle of the environmental sensing device and the field of view is easily offset, and improving the fixing effect of the environmental sensing device.

[0067] The following describes the mounting bracket, radar assembly and vehicle provided by the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model provides a mounting bracket, comprising: a mounting base 10, a support arm 20, a connecting member 30 and a first locking assembly 50, wherein the support arm 20 is arranged on the mounting base 10; the connecting member 30 comprises a fixing plate 31 and a connecting rod 32 which are connected to each other, the fixing plate 31 is used to fix the environment sensing device 40, the connecting rod 32 is rotatably connected to the support arm 20 so that the angle between the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 can be adjusted; the first locking assembly 50 is connected to the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 to lock the angle between the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20.

[0069] The utility model provides a mounting bracket, in which a connecting rod 32 and a support arm 20 are arranged at an angle and rotatably connected, so that the angle between the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 is adjustable, and a first locking component 50 is connected to the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20, so that the angle between the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 is stably locked to prevent the angle from changing randomly, thereby solving the problem that it is inconvenient to adjust the angle of the environmental sensing device 40 and the field of view is easily offset, thereby improving the fixing effect of the environmental sensing device 40.

[0070] The environment sensing device 40 is at least one of a radar and a camera. In this example, the environment sensing device 40 is a radar.

[0071] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 3 As shown, the support arm 20 can be a hollow tube, for example, the support arm 20 can be a rectangular tube, a polygonal tube or a circular tube. The hollow support arm 20 helps to reduce the weight of the mounting bracket. The support arm 20 can be made of metal material, such as aluminum alloy, to ensure mechanical strength.

[0072] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom end of the support arm 20 can be connected to the mounting base 10 by welding or by screw connection, so that the support arm 20 and the mounting base 10 remain relatively stable, thereby improving the installation stability of the environmental sensing device 40.

[0073] In a possible implementation, the fixing plate 31 and the connecting rod 32 may be connected by welding or screwing.

[0074] In a possible implementation, the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 are rotatably connected via the first rotating shaft, and the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 rotate around the central axis of the first rotating shaft to adjust the installation angle of the environment sensing device 40. The central axis of the first rotating shaft is the center line of the first rotating shaft.

[0075] refer to Figure 2 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the first rotating shaft, a first rotating hole 24 may be opened in the support arm 20 , a second rotating hole 3241 may be opened in the connecting rod 32 , and the first rotating shaft is inserted into the first rotating hole 24 and the second rotating hole 3241 .

[0076] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the side wall of the support arm 20 is provided with a first adjustment hole 21, the side wall of the connecting rod 32 is provided with a second adjustment hole 321, and the first locking assembly 50 is inserted into the first adjustment hole 21 and the second adjustment hole 321; one of the first adjustment hole 21 and the second adjustment hole 321 is an arc hole, and the center of the arc hole is located on the central axis of the first rotating shaft. When the first locking assembly 50 is in an unlocked state, the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 can rotate relative to each other, and the position of the first locking assembly 50 in the arc hole will also change, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the installation angle of the environment sensing device 40.

[0077] The length of the arc-shaped hole can be flexibly selected according to the use requirements. For example, the adjustment range of the installation angle of the environment sensing device 40 is within the range of ±10°.

[0078] In one possible implementation, the first adjustment hole 21 is an arc-shaped hole, the second adjustment hole 321 is a circular hole, and the center positions of the first adjustment hole 21 and the second adjustment hole 321 coincide with each other. In another possible implementation, the first adjustment hole 21 is a circular hole, the second adjustment hole 321 is an arc-shaped hole, and the center positions of the first adjustment hole 21 and the second adjustment hole 321 coincide with each other.

[0079] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first locking assembly 50 includes a first fastener and a first nut. The first fastener is inserted into the first adjustment hole 21 and the second adjustment hole 321 and is threadedly screwed with the first nut. The first fastener has a first head, and the support arm 20 and the connecting rod 32 are clamped between the first nut and the first head.

[0080] After the first nut is tightened, the first locking assembly 50 is in a locked state, the first head and the first nut clamp the support arm 20 and the connecting rod 32, and the position of the first fastener in the arc hole is fixed, thereby limiting the relative rotation of the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20.

[0081] In a possible implementation, the first fastener may be a bolt or a screw, and the first head has a larger diameter to prevent it from falling off.

[0082] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 3 As shown, one end of the support arm 20 away from the mounting seat 10 has a receiving cavity 22 , and the connecting rod 32 extends into the receiving cavity 22 .

[0083] In this example, during the relative rotation between the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 , part of the connecting rod 32 moves in the inner movable cavity 322 , and both sides of the accommodating cavity 22 have openings to avoid interference with the rotation of the connecting rod 32 .

[0084] The connecting rod 32 is extended into the accommodating cavity 22 so that the positions of the first rotating hole 24 opened in the support arm 20 and the second rotating hole 3241 opened in the connecting rod 32 correspond to each other, which is convenient for the installation of the first rotating shaft. At the same time, the positions of the first adjusting hole 21 and the second adjusting hole 321 correspond to each other, which is convenient for inserting the first fastener into the first adjusting hole 21 and the second adjusting hole 321.

[0085] In another possible implementation, reference Figure 3 As shown, one end of the connecting rod 32 away from the fixing plate 31 has an active cavity 322 , and one end of the supporting arm 20 away from the mounting seat 10 extends into the active cavity 322 .

[0086] In this example, during the relative rotation between the connecting rod 32 and the support arm 20 , the end of the support arm 20 away from the mounting seat 10 moves in the movable cavity 322 , and both sides of the movable cavity 322 have openings to avoid interference with the rotation of the support arm 20 .

[0087] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connecting rod 32 includes a first section 323 and a second section 324 connected to each other. The first section 323 and the second section 324 are arranged at an angle. The first section 323 is connected to the fixing plate 31 , and the second section 324 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 32 .

[0088] The first section 323 and the second section 324 can be an integral structure connected as a whole. The angle between the first section 323 and the second section 324 can be flexibly selected according to usage requirements and is not specifically limited here. For example, the angle between the first section 323 and the second section 324 can be 90°, 120°, 150°, 160° or 180°.

[0089] In a possible implementation, the first section 323 includes two ribs parallel to each other, and the second section 324 also includes two ribs parallel to each other, which helps to reduce the weight of the connecting rod 32 .

[0090] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a mounting hole 11 and a direction adjustment hole 12 are provided in the mounting seat 10 . The direction adjustment hole 12 is in an arc shape, and the center of the direction adjustment hole 12 coincides with the center of the mounting hole 11 .

[0091] In one possible implementation, reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the mounting bracket also includes a fixing platform 70 and a second locking assembly 80. The mounting seat 10 is rotatably connected to the fixing platform 70 through a second rotating shaft passing through the mounting hole 11. A matching hole 71 is provided in the fixing platform 70. The second locking assembly 80 includes a second fastener and a second nut block 81 provided on the fixing platform 70. The second fastener passes through the matching hole 71 and the orientation adjustment hole 12 and is threadedly engaged with the second nut block 81. The second fastener has a second head abutting against the mounting seat 10. The second head has a larger diameter to prevent it from falling off.

[0092] The fixing platform 70 is used to be fixed on the frame 60. A threaded hole that can be screwed with the second fastener is provided inside the second nut block 81. The second nut block 81 can be welded to the fixing platform 70. The fixing platform 70 is used to fix the mounting bracket and the frame 60. After the fixing platform 70 is fixed to the frame 60, the orientation of the mounting seat 10 relative to the fixing platform 70 can be adjusted to achieve the purpose of adjusting the orientation of the environmental sensing device 40.

[0093] In a possible implementation, the fixing platform 70 may be welded to the vehicle frame 60 to improve the reliability of fixing the fixing platform 70 .

[0094] When adjusting the orientation of the environment sensing device 40, the second fastener is loosened relative to the second nut block 81, and then the mounting base 10 is pushed to rotate around the second rotation axis. At the same time, the position of the second fastener in the orientation adjustment hole 12 changes, so that the orientation of the environment sensing device 40 can be rotatably adjusted. After the orientation of the environment sensing device 40 is adjusted, the second fastener is tightened relative to the second nut block 81. Under the force of the second nut block 81 and the second head on the mounting base 10 and the fixing platform 70, the position of the mounting base 10 relative to the fixing platform 70 can be prevented from changing, so that the orientation of the environment sensing device 40 is locked.

[0095] Exemplarily, the adjustment range of the orientation of the environment sensing device 40 is within the range of ±10°. Of course, the adjustment range of the orientation of the environment sensing device 40 may also be ±15°, which can be flexibly set according to usage requirements.

[0096] The fixing platform 70 has a third rotating hole 72, both the mounting hole 11 and the third rotating hole 72 are circular holes, and the second rotating shaft is passed through the mounting hole 11 and the third rotating hole 72, so that the mounting seat 10 is rotatably connected to the fixing platform 70. The second rotating shaft can be a pin.

[0097] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the second nut block 81 can be fixed to the fixing platform 70 by welding, and the second nut block 81 coincides with the central axis of the matching hole 71. The central axis of the matching hole 71 is the symmetric center line of the matching hole 71.

[0098] In a possible implementation, the second fastener may be a bolt or a screw.

[0099] In a possible implementation, the number of the second locking components 80 is two, so as to increase the stability of the connection between the mounting base 10 and the fixing platform 70 .

[0100] In a possible implementation, since the working angle of the environment sensing device 40 is generally a spatial angle, in order to ensure the welding accuracy of the mounting bracket, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the fixing plate 31 has a positioning hole 311, and the first section 323 has a positioning protrusion 3231. The positioning protrusion 3231 extends into the positioning hole 311, thereby improving the welding position accuracy of the fixing plate 31 and helping to improve the installation accuracy of the environmental sensing device 40.

[0101] The positioning protrusion 3231 is the part of the first section 323 that protrudes toward one side of the fixed plate 31. The positioning protrusion 3231 can be in the shape of a strip or a convex dot. The number of the positioning protrusions 3231 can be 1 or 2. The shape of the positioning hole 311 is the same as the shape of the positioning protrusion 3231, and the number is the same, which improves the installation and positioning effect of the fixed plate 31 and the connecting rod 32, and facilitates the subsequent welding connection of the fixed plate 31 and the connecting rod 32.

[0102] In a possible implementation, the outer wall of the support arm 20 is provided with a radome mounting portion 23, which may be a radome hole. The radome mounting portion 23 is used to install the radome, and the radome plays a decorative and protective role.

[0103] Since the radome is generally a plastic or sheet metal part with low strength, the present application provides a radome mounting portion 23 on the outer wall of the support arm 20, thereby achieving the installation and fixation of the radome, improving the stability of the radome installation, and solving the problem of the radome being prone to shaking.

[0104] refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the utility model further provides a radar assembly, including an environment sensing device 40 and the above-mentioned mounting bracket, and the environment sensing device 40 is arranged on the mounting bracket.

[0105] In a possible implementation, the environment sensing device 40 may be mounted to the fixing plate 31 of the mounting bracket by means of screws or snap connections.

[0106] In this example, the environment sensing device 40 includes a radar, which includes but is not limited to a laser radar, a solid-state radar, etc. The working principle of the laser radar is to transmit a detection signal to the environment, and then compare the received signal reflected from the obstacle with the transmitted signal, and after appropriate processing, the relevant information of the obstacle can be obtained, such as the obstacle distance, direction, height, speed, attitude, and even shape parameters.

[0107] The environment sensing device 40 may also include a radar and a camera to collect image information of obstacles in the environment.

[0108] The utility model provides a radar component which has a simple structure, is easy to install, and has good stability, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the radar.

[0109] The utility model provides a radar component, which can independently adjust the installation angle and orientation of the environment sensing device 40, and lock the installation angle and orientation of the environment sensing device 40 respectively, so as to improve the positioning accuracy of the radar.

[0110] During assembly, the environment sensing device 40 is mounted on the fixing plate 31, the fixing platform 70 is fixed to the upper vehicle frame 60, and then the mounting seat 10 is connected to the fixing platform 70 through the second locking assembly 80 and the second rotating shaft, and finally the connecting member 30 is connected to the support arm 20 through the first rotating shaft and the first locking assembly 50. If an error occurs after the environment sensing device 40 is installed, the position of the environment sensing device 40 can be adjusted by loosening the first fastener of the first locking assembly 50 and the second fastener of the second locking assembly 80. After the adjustment is completed, the first fastener of the first locking assembly 50 and the second fastener of the second locking assembly 80 are tightened to ensure the stability of the fixation of the environment sensing device 40 and ensure that the position of the environment sensing device 40 will not be changed at will.

[0111] The utility model also provides a vehicle, comprising a vehicle body and the above-mentioned radar assembly, Figure 1 and Fig. 9 As shown, the vehicle body includes a frame 60 , and the radar assembly is arranged on the frame 60 .

[0112] The utility model provides a vehicle, including but not limited to an unmanned cleaning vehicle, an unmanned patrol vehicle, an unmanned express delivery vehicle, an unmanned logistics vehicle, an unmanned food delivery vehicle, and an unmanned charging vehicle.

[0113] The utility model provides a vehicle, in which a fixing platform 70 can be fixed to a vehicle frame 60 by welding or screw or bolt connection, and the above-mentioned radar assembly can be located on the left and right sides of the vehicle frame 60. For example, the radar is a blind spot radar, which can monitor the environment on both sides of the vehicle body, which helps to realize automatic driving of the vehicle and improve the accuracy of environmental monitoring.

[0114] The utility model provides a mounting bracket, a radar assembly and a vehicle, which can appropriately adjust the orientation and the mounting angle of the radar during assembly to achieve the effect of adjusting the radar field of view, thereby effectively solving the problem of radar field of view deviation caused by error factors such as processing and assembly, and can also solve the problem that the angle of the radar cannot be appropriately adjusted after being fixed, thereby realizing the adjustment of the radar's multi-directional angles.
