Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicles, in particular to a post-processor assembly of a vehicle and the vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Currently, commercial vehicle box-type aftertreatment units can be installed using either bolts or straps. Bolt-on installation involves welding sheet metal brackets onto the box-type aftertreatment units. To ensure reliability, these brackets are typically large and heavy. Failures with the brackets or welds can necessitate replacement of the entire aftertreatment unit, leading to high maintenance costs. Since the aftertreatment unit's housing is made of thin sheet metal, welding a large bracket onto it can also compromise the reliability of the aftertreatment unit itself.
[0003] The drawstring installation method typically uses a hanging post-processing bracket, where the post-processor and drawstring are separately assembled and then hung on the bracket. The bracket is typically made of sheet metal. Due to the weight of the post-processor, the sheet metal bracket used is relatively thick. Due to the limitations of sheet metal forming processes, the thicker sheet metal requires sufficient space for bending or forming, making it difficult to manufacture. Utility Model Content
