[0036] Embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present disclosure, but should not be understood as limiting the present disclosure.

[0037] The present disclosure is based on the inventor's discovery and understanding of the following facts and problems:

[0038] Since it was found during use that the limiter bracket 100 has problems with low structural strength and rigidity, in order to solve this problem, the technicians have also made many attempts and improvements.

[0039] In the process of solving the problem, the technicians found that due to the large size of the existing front hood 300 (engine hood) and the large distance between the front hood 300 and the longitudinal beam 200 of the vehicle body, in order to meet the support requirements and achieve size matching, the overall size of the limiter bracket 100 needs to be made longer, which causes the problem of low structural strength and rigidity.

[0040] Based on this, the technicians tried to shorten the distance between the front hood 300 and the longitudinal beam 200, such as Figure 1 As shown, technicians have arranged a convex hump 301 on the inner side of the front bonnet 300 , but this design increases the difficulty of processing the front bonnet 300 , and also requires an additional bulge on the inner side of the front bonnet 300 , reducing the overall sensory experience.

[0041] Secondly, if Figure 2As shown, technicians have also tried a design in which the longitudinal beam 200 is widened in the Y direction (the width direction of the vehicle), but this design will increase the weight and manufacturing cost of the longitudinal beam 200.

[0042] In addition to the above two attempts to improve, the technicians also tried the position of the limiter bracket 100, such as Figure 3 As shown, the technicians changed the limiter bracket 100 to a horizontal installation instead of a vertical arrangement. Although this meets the use requirements in terms of structural strength and rigidity, it will reduce the installation height of the limiter and also makes the limiter only able to be installed on the outer surface of the limiter bracket 100, which cannot meet the installation requirements of a two-way adjustable limiter.

[0043] In view of the above attempts and improvements, the present disclosure finally proposes a new type of limiter bracket.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, the limiter bracket 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a support arm 1 and a mounting portion 2 .

[0045] The support arm 1 includes an arm body 11, a connecting ear 12 and a convex rib 13. The connecting ear 12 is arranged at one end of the arm body 11 and folded toward the outside of the arm body 11. The connecting ear 12 is used to be connected to the vehicle body. The convex rib 13 is arranged at the connection between the arm body 11 and the connecting ear 12.

[0046] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the arm body 11 can be in the shape of an inclined plate, the arm body 11 can be located in a vertical plane, and the arm body 11 can be arranged obliquely generally from the upper left to the lower right. The connecting ear 12 can be in the shape of a flat plate, the connecting ear 12 can be connected to the lower right end of the arm body 11 and can be folded toward the rear side of the connecting ear 12, and the connecting ear 12 can be integrally formed with the arm body 11 by stamping or casting.

[0047] Optionally, the arm body 11 and the connecting ear 12 may be arranged substantially vertically, wherein the plane where the arm body 11 is located may be perpendicular to the left-right direction, and the plane where the connecting ear 12 is located may be perpendicular to the front-back direction.

[0048] like Figure 4 As shown, the connection between the arm body 11 and the connecting ear 12 can be a prismatic structure, and the convex rib 13 can be integrally formed at the prismatic structure. For example, the convex rib 13 can be integrally formed at the connection between the arm body 11 and the connecting ear 12 by stamping or casting. The convex rib 13 can be bulged as a whole, and the convex rib 13 can be located in the angle structure formed by the arm body 11 and the connecting ear 12.

[0049] The mounting portion 2 is disposed at the other end of the arm body 11, and the mounting portion 2 is used to assemble the stopper 400. For example, the mounting portion 2 may be in the shape of a rectangular plate, and the mounting portion 2 may be integrally formed at the upper left end of the arm body 11. During processing, the mounting portion 2 may be formed by bending the plate. In some other embodiments, the mounting portion 2 may also be fixed to the end of the arm body 11 by welding or the like.

[0050] During assembly, the connecting ear 12 can be connected and fixed to the longitudinal beam 200 of the vehicle body by welding, and the limiter 400 can be connected and fixed to the mounting portion 2 by fasteners such as bolts.

[0051] The limiter bracket 100 of the disclosed embodiment is provided with a convex rib 13 and a connecting ear 12 on the support arm 1. During assembly, the connecting ear 12 can fit in contact with the longitudinal beam 200 of the vehicle body, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the connection position between the support arm 1 and the longitudinal beam 200. The provision of the convex rib 13 can enhance the structural strength of the connection between the support arm 1 and the connecting ear 12, thereby improving the structural strength and overall rigidity of the bracket, fully meeting the use requirements of the support limiter.

[0052] In some embodiments, the arm 11 is provided with a collapse structure 14 for pedestrian protection. Figure 4 As shown, the collapse structure 14 can be arranged in the middle of the arm body 11. The collapse structure 14 can be a hole-like structure or a rib-like structure. The collapse structure 14 can weaken the local structural strength of the arm body 11. When the arm body 11 is subjected to a large impact due to the collision of pedestrians, the arm body 11 can be effectively collapsed at the collapse structure 14, thereby achieving the function of protecting pedestrians.

[0053] In some embodiments, the collapse structure 14 includes a collapse hole 142 and a collapse rib 141, the collapse rib 141 extends along the width direction of the arm body 11, and the collapse hole 142 and the collapse rib 141 are arranged crosswise. Figure 4 As shown, the crush rib 141 can be integrally formed in the middle of the arm body 11 by stamping or the like, and the crush rib 141 as a whole can protrude toward the rear side of the arm body 11. When the arm body 11 is impacted, the arm body 11 can bend at the crush rib 141, thereby achieving crush protection.

[0054] like Figure 4 As shown, the collapse hole 142 can be generally a waist-shaped hole, and the collapse hole 142 can be set in the middle of the arm body 11. The collapse hole 142 can extend along the extension direction of the arm body 11, and the collapse hole 142 is arranged crosswise with the above-mentioned collapse rib 141 and separates the collapse rib 141 into two independent rib sections. The setting of the collapse hole 142 can further weaken the local structural strength of the arm body 11, thereby fully meeting the use requirements of collapse protection.

[0055] In some embodiments, the length of the connecting ear 12 along the extension direction of the connection is not less than 60 mm. Figure 4 As shown, the connecting ear 12 can be roughly in the shape of a rectangular plate, and the length dimension of the connecting ear 12 can be regarded as dimension a. Dimension a can specifically be 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, etc., thereby fully ensuring the fitting area of ​​the support arm 1 and the longitudinal beam 200, etc., thereby ensuring the structural strength of the connection position of the support arm 1 and the longitudinal beam 200.

[0056] In some embodiments, the distance between the outer peripheral edge of the rib 13 and the outer peripheral edge of the support arm 1 does not exceed 1.5 mm. For example, the distance between the outer peripheral edge of the rib 13 and the outer peripheral edge of the support arm 1 may be a distance L, and the distance L may be 0.5 mm, 0.85 mm, 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, etc. Thus, the structural strength of the outer peripheral edge of the support arm 1 may be enhanced.

[0057] In some embodiments, a plurality of ribs 13 are provided, and the plurality of ribs 13 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the connection. Figure 4 As shown, two convex ribs 13 may be provided and both may be substantially triangular in shape. The two convex ribs 13 may be spaced apart in the up and down directions. In other embodiments, three, four, five or other convex ribs 13 may be provided.

[0058] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 2 has a mounting surface 21 facing the limiter 400 , and the connecting ear 12 has a lap surface 121 for fitting with the vehicle body, and the mounting surface 21 and the lap surface 121 are arranged to intersect.

[0059] For example, the mounting surface 21 and the lap surface 121 may be arranged substantially vertically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the mounting surface 21 can be the upper surface of the mounting portion 2, and the mounting surface 21 can be arranged generally horizontally, and the lap surface 121 can be the right surface of the connecting ear 12, and the connecting ear 12 can be arranged generally vertically. Therefore, when the lap surface 121 is attached and fixed to the side of the longitudinal beam 200, the mounting surface 21 is horizontal by itself, and the stopper 400 can be assembled above the mounting surface 21.

[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, there are two support arms 1, and the two support arms 1 can be arranged at intervals in the front-to-back direction, and the mounting portion 2 is connected between the ends of the two support arms 1. Specifically, the mounting portion 2 can be integrally formed between the upper left ends of the two support arms 1. Thus, while reducing consumables, the contact fulcrum with the longitudinal beam 200 can be increased, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the connection and the stability of the support.

[0061] In some embodiments, the distance between the two support arms 1 gradually increases along the direction from the mounting portion 2 to the connecting ear 12. Figure 4 As shown, the distance between the two support arms 1 can gradually increase from the upper left to the lower right, thereby allowing the mounting portion 2 and the two support arms 1 to generally form a trapezoidal structure, thereby further enhancing the stability of the structure.

[0062] In some embodiments, the width of the arm body 11 of each support arm 1 gradually increases along the direction from the mounting portion 2 to the connecting ear 12. Figure 4 As shown, the width of each support arm 1 can gradually increase from the upper left to the lower right, thereby also playing a role in enhancing the structural strength and the stability of the support.

[0063] The front cabin assembly of the embodiment of the present disclosure is described below.

[0064] The front cabin assembly of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a front cabin cover 300, a limiter 400, a vehicle body and a limiter bracket 100 as described in any of the above embodiments, the vehicle body includes a longitudinal beam 200, the limiter bracket 100 is fixed to the side of the longitudinal beam 200, and the limiter 400 is connected between the mounting portion 2 and the front cabin cover 300.

[0065] For example, Figures 5 and 6 As shown, the longitudinal beam 200 may be the longitudinal beam 200 on the left side of the vehicle body, the stopper bracket 100 may be fixed on the left side surface of the longitudinal beam 200 by welding, and the stopper 400 may be a two-way adjustable stopper, specifically, the stopper 400 may be limited in both the Y direction (left-right direction) and the Z direction (up-down direction). The stopper 400 may be fixed to the top side of the mounting portion 2 by a fastener, and the top end of the stopper 400 may be connected to the lower flange on the left side of the front hood 300, thereby realizing the Z-direction assembly of the stopper 400.

[0066] It should be noted that a limiter bracket 100 and a limiter 400 are symmetrically arranged between the longitudinal beam 200 on the right side of the vehicle body and the lower flange on the right side of the front compartment cover 300, so as to fully ensure the consistency of the support limit on the left and right sides of the front compartment assembly.
