DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following will describe the implementation of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementations, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention, not for limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application provides a controller mounting bracket, comprising a first bracket 1 and a second bracket 2 fixed on a steering support column 3, wherein the first bracket 1 is provided with at least two first mounting holes 4, and the second bracket 2 is provided with at least one second mounting hole 5, wherein at least one first mounting hole 4 is used as a first mounting point of the controller, and at least one second mounting hole 5 is used as a second mounting point of the controller.

[0027] Through the coordinated cooperation between the two, when replacing a controller of a different type, the corresponding mounting holes on the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 can be used to install and fix the controller. The structure is simple and can be compatible with the installation and fixation of controllers in a variety of different states.

[0028] It should be noted that the number of the first mounting holes 4, the number of the second mounting holes 5 and the spacing between the first mounting holes 4 and the second mounting holes 5 are reasonably designed and laid out according to the controller to be fixed.

[0029] For example, see Figure 1As shown, the number of the first mounting holes 4 is two, and the number of the second mounting hole 5 is one, so that the controller mounting bracket can simultaneously meet the installation and fixation requirements of two types of controllers, with the second mounting hole 5 serving as the common mounting point for the two types of controllers. By selecting different first mounting holes 4, the installation and fixation requirements of the corresponding categories of controllers can be met.

[0030] See also Figure 5 As shown, the body controller 8 is fixed on the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, that is, the right mounting hole on the body controller 8 shown in the figure corresponds to the second mounting hole 5 on the second bracket 2, and is fixedly connected by mounting bolts, and the left mounting hole on the body controller 8 shown in the figure corresponds to the first mounting hole 4 on the first bracket 1, and is fixedly connected by mounting bolts. Figure 6 As shown, the keyless entry controller 9 is fixed to the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, that is, the right mounting hole on the keyless entry controller 9 also corresponds to the second mounting hole 5 on the second bracket 2, and is fixedly connected by mounting bolts, and the left mounting hole on the keyless entry controller 9 corresponds to the other first mounting hole 4 on the first bracket 1, and is fixedly connected by mounting bolts. It can be seen that the controller mounting bracket described in the present application can adapt to the installation requirements of two different types of controllers, reducing the design and development costs of the mounting bracket and having good versatility.

[0031] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 As shown, the first bracket 1 includes a first section 11 and a second section 12 connected at a right angle, one end of the first section 11 is fixedly connected to the steering support column 3, the other end of the first section 11 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second section 12, and the first mounting hole 4 is arranged on the second section 12. Figure 4 As shown, the second bracket 2 includes a third section 21 and a fourth section 22 connected at an obtuse angle, one end of the third section 21 is fixedly connected to the steering support column 3, the other end of the third section 21 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fourth section 22, and the second mounting hole 5 is arranged on the fourth section 22.

[0032] By configuring the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 as a corner bending structure, the other components of the vehicle are avoided, thereby preventing interference between the controller mounting bracket and other components of the vehicle.

[0033] Furthermore, in combination with the structural features of the steering column, the first bracket 1 is set to a right-angle structure, and the second bracket 2 is set to an obtuse-angle structure, so that the second section 12 of the first bracket 1 and the fourth section 22 of the second bracket 2 are on the same installation plane, which can better adapt to the controller to be installed and ensure the assembly stability of the controller.

[0034] Preferably, a first through hole 15 for fixing the airbag is provided on the first section 11, and a second through hole 24 for allowing the wiring harness to pass through is provided on the third section 21, so as to make full use of the layout space of the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2, and provide installation points for other vehicle components while ensuring the stable installation of the controller.

[0035] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first bracket 1 is fixed with a first nut 6 at a position corresponding to the first mounting hole 4, and the second bracket 2 is fixed with a second nut 7 at a position corresponding to the second mounting hole 5. The first nut 6 and the second nut 6 are used in conjunction with the corresponding mounting bolts to ensure the stable installation of the controller.

[0036] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first bracket 1 is provided with reinforcing ribs 13 to improve the structural strength of the first bracket 1 itself.

[0037] In some embodiments, in order to ensure the connection stability between the controller mounting bracket and the steering support column 3, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first bracket 1 and the second bracket 2 are both welded and fixed to the steering support column 3. At the same time, in order to improve the welding convenience, see Figure 3 As shown, three first welding flanges 14 are provided at the end of the first section 11 of the first bracket 1 and are welded and fixed to the steering support column 3. Figure 4 As shown, three second welding flanges 23 are provided at the end of the third section 21 of the second bracket 2 and are welded and fixed to the steering support column 3 .

[0038] The utility model also provides a steering support assembly, comprising a steering support column, and the steering support column is connected to the controller mounting bracket.

[0039] The utility model also provides a vehicle, comprising the above-mentioned steering support assembly.

[0040] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments for fully illustrating the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitution or modification made by a person skilled in the art based on the present invention is within the protection scope of the present invention.
