DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] See also Figure 1-5 The utility model provides an installation combination bracket for an air filter, comprising a first bracket 1 and two second brackets 2, wherein the first bracket 1 comprises a fixing block 11, a support plate 12, and a connecting rod 13 for connecting the fixing block 11 and the support plate 12, the fixing block 11 is a U-shaped structure, the second bracket 2 comprises a main support frame 3 slidably arranged on the support plate 12, a lower clamp 4 arranged on the main support frame 3, and an upper clamp 5 connected to the lower clamp 4, two symmetrically arranged auxiliary support frames 6 are provided on the lower clamp 4, the lower ends of the two auxiliary support frames 6 are respectively connected to the main support frame 3, and a V-shaped bending portion 61 is provided in the middle of the auxiliary support frame 6.

[0025] The fixing block 11, support plate 12, and connecting rod 13 are welded together to form a single unit, providing strong structural stability. When assembling the air filter, the fixing block 11 is mounted on the vehicle body frame. The main support frame 3 on the two secondary brackets 2 is then mounted on the support plate 12, depending on the installation requirements of the air filter being installed. The air filter is then placed within the lower clamps 4 on the two secondary brackets 2. Finally, the lower clamps 4 and upper clamps 5 secure the air filter.

[0026] In the above, the air filter has two installation forms. One of them has a smooth cylindrical outer surface, such as Figure 1As shown, during installation, the two second brackets 2 are respectively set at any two positions of the smooth cylinder; the outer surface of another air filter is provided with two groups of limiting edges for limiting the position of the clamp, and during installation, the two second brackets 2 are respectively set in the two groups of limiting edges; in addition, the outer diameters of different air filters are different. By setting the second bracket 2 with adjustable position and the lower clamp 4 and the upper clamp 4, air filters with different outer diameters and different shapes can be fixed, thereby improving the versatility of the installation combination bracket.

[0027] In this embodiment, the main support frame 3 supports the center of the bottom of the air filter, while two auxiliary support frames 6 provide auxiliary support on either side of the air filter. Because the auxiliary support frame 6 has a V-shaped bend 61 in the middle, utilizing its elastic deformation properties, when the lower clamp 4 is wrapped around air filters of different outer diameters, the V-shaped bend 61 deforms and lifts the lower clamp 4 upward, allowing it to fit snugly against the outer wall of the air filter.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 2 The connecting rod 13 is a hollow circular tube, which is lightweight while maintaining strength. One end of the horizontal connecting rod 13 is located inside the fixing block 11. Vertical fixing plates 111 are located on either side of the fixing block 11. These fixing plates 111 are screwed to the side walls of the vehicle body frame. The fixing block 11 is U-shaped, and the inner bottom of the fixing block 11 matches the outer wall of the connecting rod 13, providing good support for the connecting rod 13 and improving the stability of the connection between the fixing block 11 and the connecting rod 13.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 2 The bottom of the support plate 12 is provided with two first legs 121, each having a notch 122 formed therein to match the outer diameter of the connecting rod 13. Specifically, the notch 122 is welded to the outer wall of the connecting rod 13, and the bottom of the support plate 12 is welded to the upper surface of the connecting rod 13, further ensuring the connection stability between the support plate 12 and the connecting rod 13 and enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the first bracket 1.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 4 、 5 The main support frame 3 includes a supporting plate 31 and a second support leg 32 provided at the bottom of the supporting plate 31. The supporting plate 31 and the second support leg 32 are spliced ​​into a "π"-shaped structure. The main support frame 3 with the "π"-shaped structure plays a very good supporting role on the air filter, and the supporting plate 31 increases the contact area with the air filter; flanges 311 are provided on both sides of the supporting plate 31 for limiting the two sides of the lower clamp 4 to achieve the position fixation of the lower clamp 4. In order to further improve the stability of the installation of the lower clamp 4, the flanges 311 can be fixed to the lower clamp 4 by welding.

[0031] Furthermore, a first rubber pad 33 is sleeved on the support plate 31. The cross-section of the first rubber pad 33 is a horizontally placed C-shaped structure, and the support plate 31 is sleeved on the inner wall of the first rubber pad 33. The provision of the first rubber pad 33 not only increases the friction between the second bracket 2 and the air filter, but also protects the air filter by preventing the flange 311 from crushing the air filter.

[0032] Optionally, both ends of the first rubber pad 33 extend along the length direction of the lower clamp 4 to further improve the stability of the air filter installation.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 、 4 A first nut 34 is fixed to the second leg 32 by welding. A strip groove 123 is formed in the support plate 12, and the strip groove 123 is connected to the first nut 34 via a first screw 35. By adjusting the position of the first screw 35 in the strip groove 123, the position of the second bracket 2 can be adjusted according to the installation configuration of the air filter, making it suitable for installing air filters from different manufacturers.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 4 、 5 The secondary support frame 6 also includes a supporting portion 62 and a connecting portion 63, respectively located at either end of the V-shaped bend 61. The supporting portion 62 is fixed to the lower surface of the lower clamp 4 by welding, and the connecting portion 63 is located between the second leg 32 and the support plate 12. The supporting portion 62, V-shaped bend 61, and connecting portion 63 are all bent components of an integrated structure. The elastic deformation properties of the V-shaped bend ensure that the lower clamp 4 is tightly attached to the outer wall of the air filter. The symmetrical arrangement of the two secondary support frames 6 positions and supports the air filter, improving the stability of the air filter installation.

[0035] Specifically, the connecting portion 63 has a through hole 631 for the first screw 35 to pass through. During installation, the first screw 35 passes through the strip groove 123, the through hole 631, and the second support leg 32 in sequence and is threadedly connected to the first nut 34 to fix the position of the main support frame 3 and the auxiliary support frame 6.

[0036] More specifically, upwardly bent side limiting portions 632 are respectively provided on both sides of the connecting portion 63 , and the second leg 32 is located between the two side limiting portions 632 to prevent the auxiliary support frame 6 from being offset.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 4The lower clamp 4 has first bent ears 41 at each end, secured with second nuts 42. The upper clamp 5 has second bent ears 51 at each end, secured to the first ears 41 with second nuts 42 via second screws 43. Tightening the second screws 43 closes the distance between the first and second ears 41, 51, ensuring that both the upper and lower clamps 5 and 4 are in close contact with the outer wall of the air filter, securing the air filter. Because the outer diameters of air filters produced by different manufacturers can vary significantly, a longer upper clamp 5 can be used to mate with the lower clamp 4 for larger outer diameters.

[0038] Furthermore, the upper clamp 5 is provided with a second rubber pad 52. The cross section of the second rubber pad 52 is a horizontally placed C-shaped structure. The upper clamp 5 is provided on the inner wall of the first rubber pad 33. By providing the first rubber pad 33, the friction between the upper clamp 5 and the air filter can be increased, thereby enhancing the stability of the air filter installation.

[0039] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes based on the technical solution and the utility model concept of the present invention, and all these changes or substitutions should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
