[0033] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4 A radar bracket device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the radar bracket device 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes a radar main bracket 1, a radar fixed bracket 2 and a driving mechanism 3.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, combined Figure 3 The radar fixing bracket 2 is arranged on the radar main bracket 1 and is used to carry the radar. The radar is arranged on the radar fixing bracket 2. For example, Figure 1In the example shown, the radar fixing bracket 2 may be provided with a plurality of fixing claws 22, and the radar may be provided with a plurality of fixing structures corresponding to the fixing claws 22. The radar and the radar fixing bracket 2 are connected and fixed by the cooperation of the fixing claws 22 and the fixing structures, which is convenient for installation and can be flexibly disassembled. The radar may be a millimeter wave radar, which can provide high-precision information on relative distance and speed.

[0036] Furthermore, the radar main bracket 1 can be installed and fixed on the front or rear bumper or the vehicle body, and the radar fixed bracket 2 can be rotatably and movably arranged on the radar main bracket 1. The radar can be used to sense and detect the distance between the vehicle and other objects or obstacles, and alert the driver to potential dangers through warning sounds or other means, thereby avoiding unnecessary friction or collision.

[0037] In addition, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, combined Figure 3 The driving mechanism 3 is disposed on the radar main bracket 1, and the driving mechanism 3 is used to drive the radar fixed bracket 2 to rotate around the rotation axis extending along the first direction and drive the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular. For example, when the radar main bracket 1 is installed and fixed on the front bumper, the first direction may be the up-down direction, and the second direction may be the left-right direction of the vehicle.

[0038] The driving mechanism 3 may be provided with a first output shaft and a second output shaft, and the first output shaft and the second output shaft respectively drive the radar fixed bracket to move and rotate. Among them, the second output shaft may be connected to the radar fixed bracket 2, and can provide power for the rotation of the radar fixed bracket 2. For example, the radar fixed bracket 2 may be provided with a rotating shaft 21 that rotates along a rotating axis extending in the first direction, and the radar main bracket 1 may be provided with a slide groove 11 corresponding to the above-mentioned rotating shaft 21. Through the cooperation of the rotating shaft 21 and the slide groove 11, a rotatable connection between the radar fixed bracket 2 and the radar main bracket 1 can be achieved. The second output shaft of the driving mechanism 3 can be connected to the radar fixed bracket 2 and transmit power and torque, so that the radar fixed bracket 2 rotates around the rotating shaft 21, and then the rotating axis of the radar extending in the first direction can be driven to rotate, thereby realizing the flipability of the radar and increasing the detection range of the radar.

[0039] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 3 can also drive the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction, so as to realize the translation of the radar. For example, the first output shaft of the driving mechanism 3 can be connected to the radar fixed bracket 2 through the rotating wheel 311 and the transmission belt 313, and the transmission belt 313 can rotate around the rotating wheel 311. The first output shaft of the driving mechanism 3 can transmit power and torque to rotate the rotating wheel 311, thereby driving the transmission belt 313 to rotate around the rotating wheel 311. The radar fixed bracket 2 can be connected to the transmission belt 313 and realize the movement along the second direction through the transmission belt 313, thereby further increasing the detection range of the radar and improving the flexibility and detection accuracy of the radar.

[0040] Among them, the radar fixed bracket 2 can be provided with a hollow structure 23, which can reduce the weight of the radar fixed bracket 2, and is conducive to the driving mechanism 3 driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to rotate around the rotation axis extending along the first direction and driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction.

[0041] In the present application, through the cooperation between the radar main bracket 1, the radar fixed bracket 2 and the driving mechanism 3, the radar can be both flipped and translated. There is no need to add multiple radar bracket devices 100 and radars to expand the detection range of the radar and improve the detection effect, thereby greatly reducing the cost of vehicles using the radar.

[0042] According to the radar bracket device 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, by arranging a driving mechanism 3 on the radar main bracket 1 and driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to rotate around the rotation axis extending along the first direction and driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction through the driving mechanism 3, the radar can be flipped and translated at the same time, thereby improving the adjustment flexibility of the radar bracket device 100, increasing the detection range of the radar, improving the detection effect and detection accuracy of the radar, and reducing the cost of the vehicle.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the driving mechanism 3 includes a first driving mechanism 31 and a second driving mechanism 32, which can respectively control the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction and rotate around the rotation axis extending along the first direction, thereby preventing the component structures from interfering with each other and ensuring the stability of the radar bracket device 100.

[0044] Among them, Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the radar bracket device 100 also includes a motor bracket 4, which is movably arranged on the radar main bracket 1, and the motor bracket 4 is connected to the radar main bracket 1 and is movable along the second direction. For example, a sliding groove 12 extending along the second direction can be provided on the radar main bracket 1, and the motor bracket 4 can be provided with a sliding arm 41 corresponding to the sliding groove 12, and the sliding arm 41 can be inserted into the sliding groove 12 and can move in the sliding groove 12 along the second direction. The sliding groove 12 is connected with the sliding arm 41 to achieve a slidable connection between the motor bracket 4 and the radar main bracket 1.

[0045] Furthermore, the first driving mechanism 31 is disposed on the radar main bracket 1 and connected to the motor bracket 4, and is used to drive the motor bracket 4 to move along the second direction. The first driving mechanism 31 can be fixed to the radar main bracket 1 by fasteners, such as Figure 1 In the example shown, the first driving mechanism can be provided with a first output shaft, and the first output shaft can be connected to the motor bracket 4 through the rotating wheel 311 and the transmission belt 313. The first driving mechanism 3 can transmit power and torque through the first output shaft to rotate the rotating wheel 311, thereby driving the transmission belt 313 to rotate around the rotating wheel 311, and then the motor bracket 4 connected to the transmission belt 313 can be moved along the second direction.

[0046] Furthermore, the second driving mechanism 32 is disposed on the motor bracket 4 and connected to the radar fixing bracket 2, and is used to drive the radar fixing bracket 2 to rotate around a rotation axis extending along the first direction. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the example shown, the rotation axis of the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 32 extends along the first direction, and the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 32 and the radar fixing bracket 2 can be connected through a connecting plate 5. The connecting plate 5 can be fixed to the radar fixing bracket 2 by, for example, welding, and a rotating shaft groove extending in the thickness direction and corresponding to the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 32 can be provided on the side of the connecting plate 5 away from the radar fixing bracket 2, and the connection between the connecting plate 5 and the second driving mechanism 32 is completed by inserting the output shaft into the rotating shaft groove. When the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 32 rotates, the connecting plate 5 and the radar fixing bracket 2 can be driven to rotate together around the rotation axis of the output shaft, thereby realizing the rotation of the radar, which can expand the detection range of the radar in terms of angle and improve the detection effect.

[0047] In the present application, the first driving mechanism 31 is provided on the radar main bracket 1 and can drive the motor bracket 4 to move in the second direction, thereby driving the second driving mechanism 32 provided on the motor bracket 4 to move in the second direction, and further driving the radar fixed bracket 2 connected to the second driving mechanism 32 to move in the second direction. The translation of the radar can be achieved, and the movement range of the radar in the second direction is expanded, thereby increasing the flexibility and detection range of the radar.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a rotating shaft 21 is provided at one end of the radar fixed bracket 2 away from the second driving mechanism 32, and a slide groove 11 is provided on the radar main bracket 1 to cooperate with the rotating shaft 21. The rotating shaft 21 is coaxially arranged with the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 32 and extends into the slide groove 11. When the output shaft of the second driving mechanism 32 rotates, the rotating shaft 21 can cooperate with the output shaft to make the radar fixed bracket 2 rotate around the rotation axis of the output shaft, thereby realizing the rotation of the radar. The slide groove 11 allows the rotating shaft 21 to rotate while providing additional support force for the rotating shaft 21 and the radar fixed bracket 2, thereby improving the stability of the radar fixed bracket 2 when rotating, and thus improving the structural stability of the radar bracket device 100.

[0049] The slide groove 11 extends along the second direction. While allowing the rotating shaft 21 to rotate, the rotating shaft 21 is also allowed to move along the second direction. When the first driving mechanism 31 drives the motor bracket 4 to move along the second direction, the motor bracket 4 will drive the second driving mechanism 32 and the radar fixed bracket 2 connected to the second driving mechanism 32 to move along the second direction. At this time, the rotating shaft 21 can cooperate with it and move along the second direction in the slide groove 11. While realizing the translation of the radar, it also provides additional support force for the radar fixed bracket 2, improves the stability of the radar fixed bracket 2 when moving, and thus can improve the structural stability of the radar bracket device 100.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the second driving mechanism 32 includes a second motor 321. The second motor 321 can be a servo motor, which can run stably and output torque and power, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the rotation of the radar fixing bracket 2, and further conducive to ensuring the realization of the flip function of the radar. The rotation axis of the output shaft of the second motor 321 extends along the first direction, and can be connected to the radar fixing bracket 2 through a coupling or the like. After the second motor 321 is powered on, it can generate torque and power and drive the output shaft to rotate, thereby driving the radar fixing bracket 2 to rotate around the rotation axis extending along the first direction to realize the flipping of the radar.

[0051] Of course, the second drive mechanism 32 may also include a second reduction mechanism, and the second drive mechanism 32 is connected to the radar fixed bracket 2 through the second reduction mechanism, which can increase the output torque of the output shaft of the second drive mechanism 32 and improve the load capacity of the second drive mechanism 32, thereby improving the stability of the second drive mechanism 32 driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to rotate.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the first driving mechanism 31 includes: a plurality of rotating wheels 311, a first motor 312 and a transmission belt 313. The plurality of rotating wheels 311 are arranged at intervals along the second direction. The first motor 312 is connected to one of the rotating wheels 311 to drive the rotating wheel 311 to rotate. The transmission belt 313 is sleeved outside the plurality of rotating wheels 311. The first motor 312 can be a servo motor, which can stably operate and output torque and power, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the rotation of the rotating wheel 311. The output shaft of the first motor 312 is connected to one of the rotating wheels 311 and the output shaft of the first motor 312 and the rotating wheel 311 connected thereto are coaxially arranged. After the first motor 312 is powered on, it can generate torque and power and drive the output shaft to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 21 connected thereto to rotate. The rotating shaft 21 connected to the first motor 312 then drives the transmission belt 313 and other rotating wheels 311 to rotate. Through the mutual cooperation of the plurality of rotating wheels 311, the first motor 312 and the transmission belt 313, the conversion from the rotation of the first motor 312 to the transmission of the transmission belt 313 can be realized.

[0053] The motor bracket 4 is arranged on the transmission belt 313, and the motor bracket 4 is arranged on the side of the second driving mechanism 32 away from the radar fixing bracket 2. The motor bracket 4 can be directly connected to the transmission belt 313, and of course the motor bracket 4 can also be connected to the transmission belt 313 through the second driving mechanism 32. For example, Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the example shown, the motor bracket 4 can be connected to the side of the second driving mechanism 32 facing away from the radar fixed bracket 2, and the second driving mechanism 32 can be respectively provided with fixing ears 322 on two opposite sides in the second direction, and the fixing ears 322 can be connected to the transmission belt 313 by fasteners, thereby completing the connection between the motor bracket 4, the second driving mechanism 32 and the transmission belt 313, which is simple to install and easy to disassemble.

[0054] Among them, the first motor 312 provides power through one of the rotating wheels 311 to drive the transmission belt 313 to rotate around the multiple rotating wheels 311, and the multiple rotating wheels 311 are arranged and spaced along the second direction, so that the transmission belt 313 forms transmission in the second direction, thereby driving the second driving mechanism 32 to move along the second direction, thereby ensuring the movement of the radar fixed bracket 2 along the second direction.

[0055] Of course, the first driving mechanism 31 may also include a first reduction mechanism, and the first driving mechanism 31 is connected to the motor bracket 4 through the first reduction mechanism, which can increase the output torque of the output shaft of the first driving mechanism 31 and improve the load capacity of the first driving mechanism 31, thereby improving the stability of the first driving mechanism 31 driving the motor bracket 4 and the radar fixing bracket 2 to move.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the radar main bracket 1 is provided with a sliding groove 12 extending along the second direction, and the sliding groove 12 is two spaced apart along the third direction, and the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other, and the two opposite ends of the motor bracket 4 along the third direction are respectively located in the two sliding grooves 12. Among them, the two opposite ends of the motor bracket 4 along the third direction can be respectively provided with sliding arms 41 corresponding to the sliding groove 12, and the sliding arm 41 can be inserted into the sliding groove 12 and can move in the sliding groove 12 along the second direction, so that the motor bracket 4 is connected to the radar main bracket 1 by snapping, and the motor bracket 4 is also allowed to move along the second direction, so that the motor bracket 4 can drive the second driving mechanism 32 to move along the second direction, thereby ensuring the movement of the radar fixed bracket 2 and the radar in the second direction. In addition, the second driving mechanism 32 is connected to the radar main bracket 1 through the motor bracket 4. By setting the sliding groove 12 and the sliding arm 41, the stability of the connection between the motor bracket 4 and the radar main bracket 1 can be enhanced, and the connection stability between the second driving mechanism 32 and the radar main bracket 1 can be enhanced, thereby improving the stability of the radar bracket device 100.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the radar main bracket 1 is formed in an annular shape, and the radar fixed bracket 2 is arranged in the annular space 13 of the radar main bracket 1. The annular space 13 is open at both ends of the radar main bracket 1 in the third direction, which is convenient for assembling the radar fixed bracket 2, and also allows sufficient activity space around the radar fixed bracket 2, allowing the radar fixed bracket 2 to rotate around the rotation axis extending in the first direction and move in the second direction. The structure is reasonable and compact and can prevent components from colliding during movement, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the radar bracket device 100.

[0058] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the radar main bracket 1 has a plurality of mounting holes 14 for mounting the radar bracket device 100. The mounting holes 14 are spaced apart. The mounting holes 14 are used to fix the radar main bracket 1 to the front and rear bumpers or the vehicle body, and fasteners such as bolts can be used to pass through the mounting holes 14 for connection. The installation is convenient and the detachability can be achieved, which is conducive to later maintenance.

[0065] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 3 can also drive the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction, and the translation of the radar can be realized. For example, the first output shaft of the driving mechanism 3 can be connected to the radar fixed bracket 2 through the rotating wheel 311 and the transmission belt 313, and the transmission belt 313 can rotate around the rotating wheel 311. The first output shaft of the driving mechanism 3 can transmit power to rotate the rotating wheel 311, thereby driving the transmission belt 313 to rotate around the rotating wheel 311. The radar fixed bracket 2 can be connected to the transmission belt 313 and realize the movement along the second direction through the transmission belt 313, thereby further increasing the detection range of the radar, and improving the flexibility and detection accuracy of the radar.

[0066] Among them, the radar fixed bracket 2 can be provided with a hollow structure 23, which can reduce the weight of the radar fixed bracket 2, and is conducive to the driving mechanism 3 driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to rotate around the rotation axis extending along the first direction and driving the radar fixed bracket 2 to move along the second direction.
