Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of vehicles, in particular to a pedal anti-collision beam assembly and a commercial vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Commercial vehicles include freight trucks and buses. The frame structure of freight trucks is significantly different from that of buses and general passenger cars. It is usually composed of two longitudinal beams and several cross beams connecting the longitudinal beams. The vehicle's power system, cab and cargo part are installed on the frame.
[0003] The overall power system of a commercial vehicle includes a series-connected engine, gearbox, axle, and the drive shaft, differential and other structures in between. The power output of the engine is transmitted to each axle through the gearbox, thereby driving the vehicle. The engine power matched with a heavy-duty vehicle is relatively large, so the idle vibration excitation is relatively large.
[0004] At the same time, in order to reasonably arrange medium and heavy-duty diesel engines, the cab of heavy-duty vehicles is often arranged at a higher level. In order to facilitate the driver and passengers to get on and off the vehicle, a multi-level pedal is required. The pedal structure is located under the door of the cab and matches the side panel of the vehicle. At the same time, in order to ensure the support strength when people step on it, the strength requirement is relatively high. Therefore, the pedal structure needs to have an independent skeleton structure and then install a pedal panel. For heavy-duty vehicles with two-level steps on the chassis, the second-level step has a small bending stiffness due to the long cantilever, and the modal frequency is low, which is prone to resonance. In particular, the front end of heavy-duty vehicles vibrates greatly under idling conditions, so the vibration response on the pedal bracket is large, which is manifested as severe shaking of the pedal bracket when the vehicle is idling. Summary of the invention
[0005] The utility model provides a pedal anti-collision beam assembly to solve the problem of large idling vibration of the pedal on commercial vehicles.
[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is a pedal anti-collision beam assembly, including an anti-collision beam and two pedal assemblies, and also including two bracket assemblies. The rear side surface of the anti-collision beam is respectively connected to the front of the two bracket assemblies near the two ends. The two pedal assemblies are respectively installed on the opposite sides of the two bracket assemblies, and the two ends of the anti-collision beam are respectively fixedly connected to the front of the two pedal assemblies. This structure integrates the pedal assemblies on both sides and the anti-collision beam at the front of the vehicle into an integrated structure, and is installed on the frame through the bracket assemblies on both sides. The bracket assemblies, pedal assemblies and anti-collision beams are connected in pairs to form a closed structure, eliminating the excessive cantilever structure, improving the modal frequency, and avoiding idle resonance jitter.
[0007] Preferably, a connecting beam is provided between the bracket assembly and the pedal assembly, the connecting beam is S-shaped, the upper end of the connecting beam is fixedly connected to the bracket assembly, and the lower end of the connecting beam is fixedly connected to the pedal assembly.
[0008] Preferably, the cross section of the connecting beam is circular. The connecting beam is an S-shaped circular tube structure, has high rigidity, and the pedal assembly is firmly installed and connected.
[0009] Preferably, the bracket assembly includes a front end casting and a transition bracket, the transition bracket is fixedly connected to the lower part of the front end casting, the connecting beam is installed on the upper part of the front end casting, the anti-collision beam is installed on the lower front side of the transition bracket along the driving direction of the vehicle, and the connection point between the transition bracket and the front end casting is located in front of the connection point between the connecting beam and the transition bracket.
[0010] Preferably, the front upper portion of the front casting extends forward in the direction of vehicle travel to form a mounting base portion, which can serve as a mounting base for other structures such as headlights, while reducing the modal frequency of the structure, reducing resonance, and avoiding vibration damage to the headlights.
[0011] Preferably, a connecting plate is provided at the upper end of the connecting beam, the connecting plate is located in a vertical plane, the upper part of the connecting beam is arranged horizontally, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs are provided between the outer side surface of the connecting beam and the connecting plate, so as to improve the installation strength of the connecting beam.
[0012] Preferably, the pedal assembly includes a plurality of connecting columns, which are vertically arranged, the middle portions of which are connected to the bracket assembly, the lower ends of which are commonly connected to a primary pedal bracket, and the upper ends of which are provided with a secondary pedal bracket.
[0013] Preferably, the connecting column is a U-shaped folded plate, which ensures its own strength while achieving a weight reduction effect.
[0014] Preferably, the front edge of the first-stage pedal bracket is provided with an inclined plate portion, which extends in the front and upper direction of the vehicle's travel direction, and the end of the anti-collision beam is fixedly connected to the inclined plate portion. The inclined surface connection increases the connection area, improves the connection stability, and makes the appearance more beautiful.
[0015] On the other hand, the utility model also provides a commercial vehicle, including a frame, the frame including two frame longitudinal beams, the frame is equipped with the above-mentioned pedal anti-collision beam assembly, the bracket assemblies are respectively installed at the front ends of the outer sides of the frame longitudinal beams, the anti-collision beams are located in front of the frame, and the two pedal assemblies are respectively located on both sides of the frame.
[0016] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that the advantages of the utility model are that the anti-collision beam, pedal assembly, transition bracket, front casting and connecting beam form a closed frame structure, which improves the bending stiffness of the on-board pedal assembly and the modal frequency. The connecting beam is provided with reinforcing ribs at the root position, which improves the vertical and front-to-back stiffness and the modal frequency of the pedal system. Compared with the on-board pedal bracket of the prior art, especially the cantilever structure of the second-stage pedal, the on-board pedal bracket assembly structure effectively avoids the idle resonance vibration of the pedal bracket. The headlight bracket is installed on the mounting base above the anti-collision beam, and the closed structure of the assembly also improves the modal frequency of the headlight bracket, reducing the probability of damage to the headlight due to idle vibration.
