[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the utility model provides an automobile radar component and an automobile.

[0032] In one exemplary embodiment, an automotive radar assembly includes:

[0033] A support frame, the support frame is arranged on the flip axis 1, and a first mounting position 4 and a second mounting position 5 are provided on the support frame;

[0034] A fixing frame 8, the fixing frame 8 is detachably connected to the support frame through the first mounting position 4, and the radar 9 is detachably connected in the fixing frame 8;

[0035] The grille 10 is detachably connected to the support frame via the second mounting position 5 , and a mask 11 for covering the radar 9 is provided on the grille 10 .

[0036] In the utility model, by setting a bracket on the flip shaft 1 of the automobile and installing the radar 9 on the bracket, it is possible to avoid changing the front face of the automobile, without the need to design a new mold, thereby reducing the cost of installing the radar 9 on the existing basis of a light truck and reducing the difficulty of installation.

[0037] In the present invention, a fixing frame 8 for installing the radar 9 is provided on the bracket, and the radar 9 is installed in the fixing frame 8, which effectively ensures the working stability of the radar 9. In addition, the present invention also improves the connection strength of the grille 10 by connecting the grille 10 to the supporting frame, and installs a mask 11 on the grille 10 to ensure the overall aesthetics of the vehicle after the radar 9 is installed.

[0038] In an exemplary embodiment, the support frame includes a first mounting frame 2 and a second mounting frame 3 , each of the first mounting frame 2 and the second mounting frame 3 is provided with at least one first mounting position 4 , and the second mounting frame 3 is provided with at least one second mounting position 5 .

[0039] In this embodiment, by dividing the support frame into a first mounting frame 2 and a second mounting frame 3, and then installing the fixing frame 8 onto the first mounting frame 2 and the second mounting frame 3, the first mounting frame 2 and the second mounting frame 3 can stably support the fixing frame 8.

[0040] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the first mounting frame 2 and the second mounting frame 3 are connected to the flip shaft 1 by a fixed connection, which can be specifically achieved by welding or integral molding. When welding is used, two positioning blocks can be integrally formed on the flip shaft 1 to position the welding of the first mounting frame 2 and the second mounting frame 3.

[0041] For example, in this embodiment, a first mounting position 4 is provided on the first mounting frame 2, and two first mounting positions 4 are provided on the second mounting frame 3, and a stable connection with the fixing frame 8 is achieved through multiple first mounting positions 4. In addition, the second mounting positions 5 provided in this embodiment are used to connect with the grille 10. According to the internal line layout, the number of the second mounting positions 5 can be reasonably adjusted to improve the connection strength with the grille 10.

[0042] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, a first connecting member 6 and a second connecting member 7 are further provided. The fixing frame 8 is detachably connected to the first mounting frame 2 and the second mounting frame 3 via the first connecting member 6, and the grille 10 is detachably connected to the second mounting frame 3 via the second connecting member 7. Specifically, the first connecting member 6 can connect the supporting frame and the fixing frame 8 with screws or bolts.

[0043] It should also be noted that in this embodiment, the second connecting member 7 can also be connected to the second mounting frame 3 and the grille 10 by means of screws or bolts. In this embodiment, screws are preferred. A connecting portion 1001 is provided on one side of the grille 10 close to the fixing frame 8. Figure 4 As shown, the connection portion 1001 extends in the direction of the second mounting frame 3 , and the connection portion 1001 is in the shape of a step as a whole. The second connecting member 7 passes through the second mounting frame 3 and is detachably connected to the connection portion 1001 .

[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, the fixing frame 8 is provided with a fixing groove 801 for fixing the radar 9 , a plurality of convex ribs 802 are provided in the fixing groove 801 , and the fixing frame 8 is provided with a plurality of fixing buckles 803 distributed circumferentially along the fixing groove 801 for fixing the radar 9 .

[0045] In this embodiment, by setting a fixing groove 801 in the fixing frame 8, the radar 9 can be placed in the fixing groove 801 for positioning. The radar 9 is a prior art, and the fixing buckle 803 can be set to fix the radar 9.

[0046] Illustratively, in this embodiment, by providing the convex rib 802, after the radar 9 is installed in the fixing groove 801, the convex rib 802 and the fixing buckle 803 squeeze the radar 9 in the middle. The convex rib 802 in this embodiment has a certain elastic function, so that the radar 9 can be firmly fixed on the fixing frame 8.

[0047] It is worth noting that, in this embodiment, the corresponding fixing frame 8 , fixing groove 801 and fixing buckle 803 can be designed according to the size of the radar 9 to achieve the stability of the radar 9 .

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, the grille 10 includes a main body and a mounting portion disposed on the main body, and the mask 11 is connected to the main body through the mounting portion.

[0049] In this embodiment, the main body of the grille 10 is the overall frame of the grille 10. The grille 10 is mainly connected to the support frame through the connecting part 1001. At the same time, connecting parts connected to other front parts of the vehicle are also added on both sides of the grille 10 to assist the grille 10 to be firmly connected to the vehicle. At the same time, two decorative covers 12 are arranged on the inner side of the grille 10, which are located on the left and right sides of the mask 11. The decorative covers 12 are connected to the grille 10 with screws, which is convenient for disassembly and installation, and improves the aesthetics of the front face of the vehicle after the grille 10 is installed on the vehicle.

[0050] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the mounting portion is disposed in the middle of the grille 10 , and its central axis is aligned with the central axis of the vehicle. Correspondingly, the central axis of the radar 9 is also aligned with the central axis of the vehicle.

[0051] Exemplarily, the mounting portion is provided with a plurality of slots 1002, and the mask 11 is provided with a plurality of buckles 1101 corresponding to the slots 1002. During installation, the buckles 1101 are inserted into the corresponding buckles 1101, so that the mask 11 and the grille 10 can be connected.

[0052] It is worth noting that the number of buckles 1101 and slots 1002 in this embodiment are both six, and the mask 11 is made of plastic. Since the mask 11 needs to be a simple and smooth curved surface in the radar 9 wave radiation area, and the curved surface radius in the horizontal and vertical directions is greater than 400mm. In order to prevent the radar 9 beam from being deformed, the inner and outer surfaces of the mask 11 are smooth surfaces with a constant thickness.

[0053] It should also be noted that, in order to ensure the normal operation of the radar 9 and its scanning range, there is a target distance between the mask 11 and the radar 9, and the target distance is not less than 10 mm, preferably 10 mm.

[0054] The utility model also provides an automobile, including but not limited to a light truck, which adopts the above automobile radar assembly.

[0055] In summary, the utility model can provide a stable installation environment for the radar 9 by setting up the support frame and the fixing frame 8, realize the effective operation of the radar 9, reduce the cost of installing the radar 9, and ensure the aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0056] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the technology may modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by a person of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in the present invention shall still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
