[0044] The bumper positioning device of this embodiment includes a support bracket 1 and a cantilever bracket 2. The support bracket 1 is used to connect with the vehicle body 5, and the cantilever bracket 2 is used to connect with the bumper 4, that is, the bumper 4 is installed on the vehicle body 5 through the bumper positioning device. A length direction positioning structure for positioning the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 along the length direction of the vehicle is provided between the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2, so as to position the connection between the bumper 4 and the vehicle body 5 along the length direction of the vehicle. A width direction positioning structure for positioning the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 along the width direction of the vehicle is provided between the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2, so as to position the connection between the bumper 4 and the vehicle body 5 along the width direction of the vehicle. A height direction positioning structure for positioning the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 along the height direction of the vehicle is provided between the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2, so as to position the connection between the bumper 4 and the vehicle body 5 along the height direction of the vehicle.

The support bracket 1 is provided with a first mounting hole 125 that runs through the vehicle along the length direction of the vehicle in the middle position of the top of the support bracket 1, and two first mounting holes 125 are provided at the bottom of the support bracket 2, and the three first mounting holes 125 form a triangle. The support bracket 1 is installed on the vehicle body 5 through the first mounting hole 125. The cantilever bracket 2 is provided with a second mounting hole 223 that runs through the vehicle along the length direction of the vehicle in the middle position of the top of the support bracket 1, and two second mounting holes 223 are provided at the bottom of the support bracket 2, and the three second mounting holes 223 form a triangle, and a positioning hole 224 is provided above the two second mounting holes 223 at the bottom. The cantilever bracket 2 is installed on the bumper 4 through the second mounting hole 223 and the positioning hole 224. When the cantilever bracket 2 is installed on the bumper 4 , the positioning hole 224 plays a positioning role, thereby improving the installation accuracy of the cantilever bracket 2 on the bumper 2 and improving the installation efficiency of the cantilever bracket 2 .
[0045] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12As shown, the support bracket 1 includes a support bracket body 12, and the cantilever bracket 2 includes a cantilever bracket body 22. A lap joint 21 is provided on one of the support bracket body 12 and the cantilever bracket body 22, and a receiving portion 11 is provided on the other. The lap joint 21 and the receiving portion 11 are arranged opposite to each other, and the lap joint 21 overlaps the top surface of the receiving portion 11. The opposite sides of the lap joint 21 and the receiving portion 11 are respectively a matching lap joint surface 211 and a receiving surface 111, that is, the bottom surface of the lap joint 21 is the lap joint surface 211, and the top surface of the receiving portion 11 is the receiving surface 111. The lap joint surface 211 and the receiving surface 111 form a height direction positioning structure. When the lap joint surface 211 and the receiving surface 111 are in contact, the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 are positioned along the height direction of the vehicle. The receiving portion 11 protrudes from the opposite side of the supporting bracket 1 or the cantilever bracket 2, and the overlapping portion 21 also protrudes from the opposite side of the supporting bracket 1 or the cantilever bracket 2. The overlapping portion 21 and the receiving portion 11 have simple structures and good positioning effect in the height direction, so that the bumper 4 is positioned on the vehicle body 5 with high accuracy in the height direction.
[0046] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12 As shown, the receiving portion 11 is arranged on the side of the support bracket body 12 facing the cantilever bracket 2, and the overlapping portion 21 is arranged on the side of the cantilever bracket body 22 facing the support bracket 1. The receiving portion 11 includes a receiving platform, and the overlapping portion 21 includes a overlapping platform. The width and height of the receiving portion 11 are smaller than the width and height of the support bracket body 12, and the width and height of the overlapping portion 21 are smaller than the width and height of the cantilever bracket body 22. When installing the bumper 4, the cantilever bracket 2 is first installed on the bumper 4, the support bracket 1 is installed on the vehicle body 5, and then the cantilever bracket 2 is installed on the support bracket 1. Therefore, during installation, the overlapping portion 21 of the cantilever bracket 2 is placed on the receiving portion 11 of the support bracket 1 located below it, which reduces the difficulty and labor of the workers in assembly and facilitates the installation and positioning work.
[0047] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12 As shown, the longitudinal cross-sections of the support bracket body 12 and the cantilever bracket body 22 along the width direction of the vehicle are both rectangular, and the corners are all rounded. The two side edges of the bottom of the cantilever bracket body 22 extend in the width direction of the vehicle and form two mounting ears, and the second mounting hole 223 and the positioning hole 224 are both set on the mounting ears. The setting of the mounting ears increases the contact area between the cantilever bracket body 22 and the bumper 4, and improves the connection strength and connection stability between the cantilever bracket 2 and the bumper 4.
[0048] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12 As shown, the overlapping surface 211 and the receiving surface 111 are inclined surfaces with the same inclination angle, the overlapping surface 211 is an inclined surface whose height gradually decreases along the direction close to the cantilever bracket 2, and the receiving surface 111 is an inclined surface whose height gradually increases along the direction close to the supporting bracket 1. The above-mentioned setting method plays a guiding role, facilitating the installation of the overlapping part 21 to the receiving part 11, that is, facilitating the installation between the supporting bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2, and improving the installation efficiency.
[0049] In one embodiment, if Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 8 , Fig.13 , Fig.14 As shown, two width direction positioning blocks 112 are arranged on the receiving surface 111 in the vehicle length direction, and the two width direction positioning blocks 112 can be arranged on the two side edges of the receiving surface 111 in the vehicle length direction. The opposite sides of the two width direction positioning blocks 112 are first width direction positioning surfaces 112a, and a width direction positioning area is formed between the two first width direction positioning surfaces 112a. The overlapping portion 21 extends into the width direction positioning area, and the two sides of the overlapping portion 21 in the vehicle length direction are second width direction positioning surfaces 212. The two first width direction positioning surfaces 112a are arranged one by one with the two second width direction positioning surfaces 212 and cooperate with each other, and the two first width direction positioning surfaces 112a and the two second width direction positioning surfaces 212 form a width direction positioning structure. When one of the first width direction positioning surfaces 112a abuts against one of the second width direction positioning surfaces 212, the other first width direction positioning surface 112a abuts against the other second width direction positioning surface 212. That is, when the overlap portion 21 extends into the width direction positioning area, the two first width direction positioning surfaces 112a respectively abut against the two second width direction positioning surfaces 212 to position the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 along the vehicle width direction, thereby positioning the bumper 4 and the body 5 along the vehicle width direction.
[0050] In one embodiment, if Figure 8 , Fig.13 , Fig.14 As shown, the two first width direction positioning surfaces 112a are bent in directions away from each other to facilitate the overlapping portion 21 to extend between the two width direction positioning blocks 112 to play a guiding role.
[0051] In one embodiment, if Figure 8 , Fig.13 , Fig.14As shown, the first width direction positioning surface 112a and the second width direction positioning surface 212 can be inclined surfaces with the same inclination angle. Specifically, the distance between the two first width direction positioning surfaces 112a gradually increases in the direction close to the cantilever bracket 2; the distance between the two second width direction positioning surfaces 212 gradually decreases in the direction close to the support bracket 1, so as to facilitate the overlap portion 21 to extend between the two width direction positioning blocks 112, playing a guiding role.
[0052] In one embodiment, if Figures 2 to 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.11 As shown, the receiving portion 11 has a longitudinal positioning surface 122 facing the cantilever bracket 2, and a longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 matching the longitudinal positioning surface 122 is provided on the side of the cantilever bracket body 22 facing the supporting bracket 1, and the longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 is arranged corresponding to the longitudinal positioning surface 122. The longitudinal positioning surface 122 and the longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 form a longitudinal positioning structure, and when the longitudinal positioning surface 122 and the longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 abut against each other, the supporting bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 are positioned along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 is arranged below the lap joint 21, and the longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 is a rectangular frame with one side opened along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A plurality of sub-protrusions are arranged on the top of the longitudinal positioning protrusion 222 along the height direction of the vehicle, and each sub-protrusion is arranged at intervals along the width direction of the vehicle to improve the positioning accuracy along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The above structure can not only accurately achieve positioning along the length direction of the vehicle, but the length direction positioning protrusion 222 can also act as a reinforcing rib, thereby increasing the structural strength of the surface of the cantilever bracket 2 where the length direction positioning protrusion 222 is located, so that the cantilever bracket 2 can withstand a greater load when impacted, thereby improving its anti-collision ability.
[0053] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 , Fig.11 As shown, the bumper positioning device also includes a connecting bracket 3, which is arranged between the supporting bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2. The supporting bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 are connected through the connecting bracket 3, and the connecting bracket 3 has the function of fixing the supporting bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2. The setting of the connecting bracket 3 enables the bumper positioning device to not only have the function of positioning, but also has the function of fixing the bumper 4 and the vehicle body 5, thereby improving the stability of the bumper 4 installed on the vehicle body 5 and reducing the shaking of the bumper 4.
[0054] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9As shown, a first connection hole 121 penetrating along the length direction of the vehicle is provided on the side of the support bracket 1 facing the cantilever bracket 2, that is, a first connection hole 121 penetrating along the length direction of the vehicle is provided on the side of the receiving portion 11 facing the cantilever bracket 2. A hook 126 extending toward the cantilever bracket 2 and folding inward is provided on the inner side wall of the first connection hole 121, and the connection bracket 3 includes a first connector 31 for connecting with the support bracket 1 and a second connector 32 for connecting with the cantilever bracket 2, the first connector 31 is provided toward the support bracket 1, and the second connector 32 is provided toward the cantilever bracket 2. The first connector 31 extends into the first connection hole 121, and a first recess 311a is provided on the outer peripheral side wall of the first connector 31, and the first recess 311a is provided corresponding to the hook 126. When the hook 126 is engaged in the first recess 311a, the connection bracket 3 and the support bracket 1 are installed in place. By arranging the hook 126 in the first recess 311a, the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 can be limited along the length direction of the vehicle, thereby improving the connection strength and accuracy of the support bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 along the length direction of the vehicle.
[0055] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 As shown, the first end of the first connector 31 is connected to the second connector 32, and the second end extends into the first connection hole 121. The first end of the first connector 31 is a cross-shaped conical connector. The above structure can play a guiding role when the first end of the first connector 31 extends into the first connection hole 121, and each conical surface is a guiding surface.
[0056] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 As shown, at least one baffle 311 extending in the vehicle height direction is provided on the outer peripheral side wall of the first connector 31, and the connecting bracket 3 also includes a connecting plate 321 provided between the first connector 31 and the second connector 32. When there is one baffle 311, a first recess 311a is formed between the side of the baffle 311 facing the connecting plate 321 and the side of the connecting plate 321 facing the baffle 311. The baffle 311 extends upward and downward in the vehicle height direction, and the top and bottom of the baffle 311 both protrude from the outer side wall of the first connector 31, thereby increasing the depth of the first recess 311a and the matching effect of the first recess 311a and the hook 126, thereby increasing the limiting effect of the supporting bracket 1 and the cantilever bracket 2 in the vehicle length direction.
[0057] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 As shown, there are two hooks 126 arranged opposite to each other along the circumferential direction of the inner wall of the first connecting hole 121, so that the two hooks 126 lock the first connecting head 31 along the length direction of the vehicle from two opposite directions, thereby improving the locking effect of the first connecting head 31 along the length direction of the vehicle.
[0058] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 As shown, the baffles 311 are arranged axially along the outer side wall of the first connector 31, that is, the baffles 311 are arranged on the outer side wall of the first connector 31 along the length direction of the vehicle. Second recesses 311b are formed between the opposite sides of two adjacent baffles 311, and each second recess 311b forms a multi-stage locking structure. A first recess 311a is formed between the baffle 311 close to the second connector 32 and the second connector 32. When the connecting bracket 3 is separated from the supporting bracket 1, the hook 126 needs to withdraw from the first recess 311a and the second recess 311b in sequence. The design of multiple second recesses 311b can form a multi-stage locking structure, further restricting the hook 126 from withdrawing from the second recess 311b, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the connecting bracket 3 and the supporting bracket 1. It also avoids the problem of the hook 126 withdrawing from the second recess 311b due to misoperation, which leads to the failure of the connection between the connecting bracket 3 and the supporting bracket 1.
[0059] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig. 9 As shown, the side of the baffle 311 facing the cantilever bracket 2 is a plane, the side of the baffle 311 facing the support bracket 1 is an inclined surface, and the thickness of the baffle 311 gradually increases along the axial direction close to the first connector 31. The above-mentioned inclined surface can play a guiding role when the hook 126 enters the second pit 311b, making it convenient for the hook 126 to enter the second pit 311b. The plane setting can prevent the hook 126 from exiting the second pit 311b, thereby playing a role in locking the connecting bracket 3 and the support bracket 1 along the length direction of the vehicle.
[0060] In one embodiment, the two sides of the first connector 31 along the length direction of the vehicle respectively abut against the two opposite inner side walls of the first connection hole 121, so as to further position the support bracket 1 and the connection bracket 3 along the width direction of the vehicle. When the first connector 31 extends into the first connection hole 121, the two side outer side walls of the first connector 31 along the length direction of the vehicle respectively abut against the two opposite inner side walls of the first connection hole 121, which plays a role in assisting the positioning of the bumper 4 and the body 5 along the width direction of the vehicle.
[0061] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 As shown, the cantilever bracket 2 is provided with at least one second connection hole 221 that runs through the length direction of the vehicle, that is, the cantilever bracket body 22 is provided with at least one second connection hole 221 that runs through the length direction of the vehicle. The second connector 32 includes at least one guide column 322 that is arranged on the side of the connecting plate 321 away from the first connector 31. Each guide column 322 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with each second connection hole 221.
