[0032] The front-end module assembly (FEM for short) is a system that integrates the front-end components of the vehicle. With the deepening of the concepts of integration and modularization, the front-end frame of the vehicle has also developed from a single skeleton to a gradually improved integrated system, mainly through a special skeleton, integrating parts such as cabin locks, radiators, condensers, intercoolers, anti-collision beams, buffer blocks, sensors, headlights, bumpers and even fenders. In the current industrial system, the gas-liquid separator is a key component. It is located before the compressor and is used to remove liquid particles in the air flow to prevent these particles from entering the compressor and causing damage, and to ensure the effective operation of the compressor. The installation position of the gas-liquid separator is usually in the housing of the front-end module. The existing gas-liquid separator fixing structure mainly relies on multiple brackets and bolts for fixing. During the assembly process, the bracket is first fixed to the housing of the front-end module with bolts, and then the gas-liquid separator is fixed to the mounting bracket, and finally the refrigerant pipeline is assembled. However, there may be some problems with this fixing method:

[0033] Insufficient stability: Due to its reliance on multiple brackets and bolts, this structure may cause the fixing points to loosen due to vibration during operation, affecting the stability of the gas-liquid separator.

[0034] Complex assembly: The installation process of multiple brackets and bolts is cumbersome, requiring more assembly time, and maintenance and repairs may be more difficult in space-constrained environments.

[0035] High maintenance cost: Frequent inspection and replacement of brackets and bolts increase maintenance costs, especially in industrial situations that require high reliability operation.

[0036] In order to solve these problems, the utility model proposes a front-end bracket, which can solve the problems of many types of parts, high development / maintenance costs, low assembly efficiency and insufficient stability by integrating the mounting bracket of the gas-liquid separator with the heat dissipation shell for installing the heat dissipation system in the front-end module.

[0037] In the following section, the specific implementation of this integrated design will be introduced in detail.

[0038] See also Figure 1 In one embodiment of the utility model, the front end bracket 200 includes a heat dissipation shell 210 and a mounting bracket 220. The heat dissipation shell 210 is used for installing the heat dissipation system of the vehicle air-conditioning system. The heat dissipation shell 210 has a shell outer side 211 away from the heat dissipation system; the mounting bracket 220 is arranged on the shell outer side 211, and the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation shell 210 are integrally formed; the mounting bracket 220 can fix the gas-liquid separator 300 by forming a clamp structure, or it can be connected to the mounting bracket 220 through an auxiliary bracket 230 to fix the gas-liquid separator 300.

[0039] Combined with reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The front-end bracket 200 is a bracket of system parts that integrates the front-end components of the vehicle, also known as a frame or skeleton. The front-end module integrates parts such as cabin locks, radiators, condensers, intercoolers, anti-collision beams, buffer blocks, sensors, headlights, bumpers and even fenders.

[0040] The cooling system of a vehicle air conditioner refers to parts such as the radiator, condenser, and fan.

[0041] The heat dissipation housing 210 is a portion of the front bracket 200 for installing the radiator, condenser and fan, and is also called a wind shield, a front housing, etc. The heat dissipation housing 210 can refer to 1 or Figure 2 FIG. 1 shows a portion of the figure; in other embodiments, it may also be in other forms, such as a shell of a heat dissipation grille, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0042] The heat dissipation housing 210 has a shell outer side 211 away from the heat dissipation system; the shell outer side 211 and the shell inner side of the heat dissipation housing 210 are relative concepts. In general, the identification of inside / outside is based on the reference (outside world), and the side facing the outside world is the shell outer side 211. When both are in contact, the side where the heat dissipation system is installed is the shell inner side, such as installing a radiator or a fan. Under normal circumstances, when the heat dissipation housing 210 is arranged, the mounting bracket 220 faces the rear direction of the vehicle, that is, the rear side of the shell faces the rear direction of the vehicle, and the front side of the shell faces the front direction of the vehicle; the mounting bracket 220 is arranged on the rear side of the shell and does not occupy the space of the heat exchanger and the radiator. Without loss of generality, different separators have different shapes and sizes, that is, the separator may also be arranged on the side of the heat dissipation housing 210. Therefore, as long as the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are integrally formed, the solution of arranging it at any position on the front and / or top, top and / or side, back and / or side of the heat dissipation housing 210 should be considered within the scope defined by this solution.

[0043] In the integrated molding method, the mounting bracket 220 can be fixed to the heat dissipation housing 210 as a whole by welding or other methods; or the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are integral. Specifically, the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are integrally molded. It should be noted that the expression "molded as one" emphasizes the action or process of "molding", that is, multiple parts or elements are processed or treated in a certain way to finally form a whole, and focuses more on describing the formation process from multiple parts to the whole, and the results of this process. In one embodiment, the heat dissipation housing 210 is metal, and the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are integrally molded by casting. In another embodiment, the heat dissipation housing 210 is plastic, and the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are integrally molded by injection molding. Specifically, it means that in the process of designing and manufacturing the front-end heat dissipation housing 210, the mounting bracket 220 is directly integrated into the structural design of the heat dissipation housing 210 itself, and is manufactured into a single, continuous structure through a one-time manufacturing process (such as injection molding, die casting, pouring, etc.), rather than being added as an independent component through subsequent assembly steps. This design can improve the overall strength and stability of the structure, reduce the connection points between components, and thus reduce the risk of failure caused by loose connection points or fatigue. Since the bracket and the housing are already integrally formed, the complicated bracket installation steps can be omitted during the assembly process, and the integrally formed structure can be directly installed on the vehicle or equipment. Through the integral molding setting, the separator mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 form a unified whole, which not only improves the stability and durability of the structure, but also simplifies the assembly process and reduces potential failure points, thereby reducing maintenance costs and improving system reliability.

[0044] Combination Figure 5The auxiliary bracket 230 cooperates with the mounting bracket 220 to fix the gas-liquid separator 300. The gas-liquid separator 300 is mainly used to separate the gaseous and liquid refrigerants in a mixed state. The gas-liquid separator 300 is usually installed behind the air conditioner main unit and before the electric compressor to ensure that only dry and pure refrigerant enters the compressor. Because the mounting bracket 220 is integrated with the heat dissipation housing 210, there is no need to assemble the mounting bracket 220 separately during assembly, and the installation is faster. The mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 form a unified whole, which not only improves the stability and durability of the structure; in addition, there is no need to weld the mounting bracket 220 on the gas-liquid separator 300, which can also reduce the weight of the gas-liquid separator 300. The connection scheme of the mounting bracket 220 and the auxiliary bracket 230 can be bolt connection, clamping, etc. Of course, the mounting bracket 220 and the auxiliary bracket 230 may also be integrally formed to form a ring opening for inserting the gas-liquid separator 300 , and the gas-liquid separator 300 may be installed and fixed by interference fit with the outer peripheral surface of the gas-liquid separator 300 .

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The mounting bracket 220 has various forms and types. The mounting bracket 220 and the auxiliary bracket 230 are introduced below.

[0046] Under the premise of ensuring structural strength, in order to save costs, the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are injection molded as one, and at least part of the cavity 222 is provided between the bottom of the mounting bracket 220 and the outer side 211 of the shell. The mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210 are injection molded as one, and the one-piece molding design can simplify the production process, reduce assembly steps, and improve production efficiency. The cavity 222 is provided at an appropriate position, and the size and shape of the cavity 222 can be adjusted as needed, which can reduce weight, improve heat dissipation efficiency and assembly efficiency while ensuring structural strength. Here, the cavity 222 can be a gap or opening that passes through the mounting bracket 220 and the heat dissipation housing 210, or it can be a hollow state in the middle, but a closed structure on the outside, such as a hollow base surrounding the mounting bracket 220.

[0047] In order to save materials, the two opposite ends of the bottom of the mounting bracket 220 are each integrally molded with the heat dissipation housing 210 through at least one support member 221. The mounting bracket 220 is suspended relative to the rear side of the housing through the at least two support members 221.

[0048] Reference Figure 4The cross-section of the support member 221 is cylindrical, and can also be triangular, prism-shaped, etc. The height of the support member 221 is set according to the process and design requirements, and is not limited here. Only in the case of using one support member 221, arranging it at any end of the mounting bracket 220 will cause the other ends to lack support. The support member 221 can only be arranged in the middle of the mounting bracket 220, and the mounting bracket 220 cannot remain stable. Therefore, under the condition of maintaining stability, the mounting bracket 220 is suspended relative to the rear side of the shell through two support members 221, so as to meet the integration of the mounting bracket 220 and save the use of materials; in this solution, three support members 221 are used, and the three support members 221 are arranged in a triangle. It can be understood that the three support members 221 arranged in a triangle are less than the number of four or five solutions on the one hand; on the other hand, the three support members 221 can provide the mounting bracket 220 with two more stable supports and connections, and will not increase the manufacturing cost much.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 The gas-liquid separator 300 is generally cylindrical. To facilitate the installation of the gas-liquid separator 300, the mounting bracket 220 includes a main body section 223 and two mounting sections 224 provided at both ends of the main body section 223. The auxiliary bracket 230 includes a main body section 231 and two fixing sections 232 provided at both ends of the main body section 231. One fixing section 232 is connected to one mounting section 224. In one embodiment, the main body section 223 is arranged in an arc shape; in one embodiment, the main body section 223 and the main body section 231 are both arranged in an arc shape; in one embodiment, the main body section 231 is arranged in an arc shape to adapt to the outer circumference of the gas-liquid separator 300. A metal bracket is used, and a circular arc structure is used in the middle to match the cylindrical body of the gas-liquid separator 300. The gas-liquid separator 300 generally has a non-planar profile, especially when considering that it accommodates the refrigerant flow path and other functional structures. By designing the main body section 223 and the body section 231 into an arc, the bracket can better fit the curved surface shape of the gas-liquid separator 300, thereby providing a tighter and more stable support. The arc design can make more efficient use of three-dimensional space, especially in a space-constrained environment such as the front-end module of the vehicle. The arc bracket can better conform to the complex geometry of the front of the vehicle, reduce interference with surrounding components, and optimize the overall layout. The understanding of the arc portion should include but is not limited to a part of a circle or ellipse, or any other continuously curved lines or surfaces, as long as they constitute a non-linear, curvilinear structural part. In actual applications, the most suitable curvature and shape will be selected according to the specific size, installation environment and mechanical requirements of the gas-liquid separator 300 to achieve the established design goals.

[0050] When fixing the gas-liquid separator 300, the gas-liquid separator 300 is mainly fixed by the clamping force of the mounting bracket 220 and the auxiliary bracket 230. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the structural strength of the mounting bracket 220 and the auxiliary bracket 230 to avoid cracking and other problems during the fastening process.

[0051] In order to improve the structural strength of the mounting bracket 220, the mounting bracket 220 is provided with a reinforcing structure 240 for reinforcing its own structural strength. In one embodiment, the reinforcing structure 240 is a reinforcing rib provided on the main section 223. The reinforcing rib can be a surface of the main section 223 itself that is concave or convex to form a wavy line, or a cross section that is undulating up and down. In one embodiment, the reinforcing structure 240 is a reinforcing protrusion or groove provided on the front or back of the main section 223, and / or a flange provided on the edge of the main section 223.

[0052] Of course, a reinforcing structure 240 can also be provided on the auxiliary bracket 230 to improve the structural strength of the auxiliary bracket 230, such as adding ribs and tendons on the surface or inside of the auxiliary bracket 230 to increase the rigidity and strength of the auxiliary bracket 230 without increasing too much weight.

[0053] Reference Figure 5 In one embodiment, the auxiliary bracket 230 is made of metal; in one embodiment, the auxiliary bracket 230 and the mounting bracket 220 are made of the same material.

[0054] Specifically, the mounting section 224 is provided with a mounting hole 225; the fixing section 232 is provided with a fixing hole 233, and the fastener passes through the fixing hole 233 and the mounting hole 225 to fix the auxiliary bracket 230 and the mounting bracket 220. In order to improve the fixing force of the fastener on the mounting bracket 220 and the auxiliary bracket 230, refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5The figure shows the combination state of the metal sleeve 260 and the fastener. In one embodiment, the metal sleeve 260 is embedded in the mounting hole 225. In one embodiment, the metal sleeve 260 and the mounting section 224 are integrally molded by insert injection. The outer wall of the metal sleeve 260 and the mounting hole 225 is provided with an anchoring structure 261. The anchoring structure 261 is mainly used to enhance the bonding strength between the metal sleeve 260 and the plastic part and improve the effect of injection molding. In one embodiment, the anchoring structure 261 is a plurality of block-shaped pieces arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the metal sleeve 260. The presence of the block-shaped protrusions increases the contact area between the metal sleeve 260 and the plastic, thereby improving the bonding force between them; when the plastic is injected into the mold, the plastic material will fill the gaps between the protrusions and form an anchoring effect after cooling and solidification, making the bonding between the metal sleeve 260 and the plastic part more secure. The gaps between the protrusions can be filled with plastic material to form a "key"-like structure, which can prevent the metal sleeve 260 from relative movement or rotation within the plastic part; thereby, the metal sleeve 260 can be better injection molded as one with the mounting hole 225.

[0055] Reference Figure 5 In one embodiment, the anchoring structure 261 is a thread provided on the outer surface of the metal sleeve 260, and the plastic material will fill the thread during injection molding to form a stronger mechanical connection; in one embodiment, the anchoring structure 261 is a hole or groove provided on the metal sleeve 260, and the plastic material will flow into these holes or grooves during injection molding to form an inlay effect; in one embodiment, the anchoring structure 261 is a tooth-like structure similar to a protrusion, but the shape of the tooth-like structure may be more complex and can provide more bonding points; in one embodiment, the anchoring structure 261 is a special adhesive or coating applied on the surface of the metal sleeve 260 to improve the adhesion with the plastic material.

[0056] In addition, the thickness of the mounting segment 224 is greater than the thickness of the main segment 223. It can be understood that making the thickness of the mounting segment 224 greater than the thickness of the main segment 223 can ensure the structural strength of the mounting segment 224 and avoid deformation or cracking of the mounting segment 224 due to excessive tightening force during assembly.

[0057] In order to prevent the mounting bracket 220 or the auxiliary bracket 230 from being damaged due to excessive tightening force during the locking process, the fixing section 232 is provided with a fixing hole 233, and an elastic buffer 270 is provided in the fixing hole 233 to reduce the force during tightening. In one embodiment, the elastic buffer 270 is an I-shaped rubber pad; in another embodiment, the spring buffer is a plastic pad or a rubber pad; a metal guide is sleeved outside the elastic buffer 270 to guide the bolt. During installation, the bolt passes through the elastic buffer 270 and is connected to the metal guide. In one embodiment, the metal guide is a metal sleeve 260; in another embodiment, the metal guide is a guide column. The provision of the metal guide can increase the tightening force, and the rubber pad is used to buffer the force during tightening to prevent cracking damage to the mounting bracket 220.

[0058] Reference Figure 2 In order to facilitate installation, the mounting bracket 220 and / or the auxiliary bracket 230 is also provided with a support structure 250 that can support the bottom of the gas-liquid separator 300; when the gas-liquid separator 300 is fixed by the support structure 250, the gas-liquid separator 300 can be supported by the support structure 250 and the mounting bracket 220 can be tightened.

[0059] In one embodiment, the support structure 250 is a protrusion or folded edge provided at the bottom of the mounting bracket 220, for example, formed by bending from the bottom of the main body section 223. During assembly, the auxiliary bracket 230 and the mounting bracket 220 can be fixed first, and then the gas-liquid separator 300 can be placed between the auxiliary bracket 230 and the mounting bracket 220. Then, the support structure 250 supports the gas-liquid separator 300, which facilitates the fastening of the auxiliary bracket 230 and the mounting bracket 220. In one embodiment, the support structure 250 is a bracket provided on the auxiliary bracket 230 that can abut against the bottom of the gas-liquid separator 300.

[0060] The present utility model also proposes a front-end module assembly 100, which includes a heat dissipation system, a gas-liquid separator 300 and a front-end bracket 200. The specific structure of the front-end bracket 200 refers to the above-mentioned embodiment. Since the front-end module assembly 100 adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0061] The front-end module assembly 100 integrates system parts of the front-end components of the vehicle, mainly through a special frame, integrating parts such as cabin locks, radiators, condensers, intercoolers, anti-collision beams, buffer blocks, sensors, headlights, bumpers and even fenders.

[0062] The utility model also proposes a vehicle, in which the front-end module assembly 100 as described above is arranged at the front end of the vehicle body frame and is located between the anti-collision beam and the driver's cabin.
