Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile sunroofs, and in particular to an automobile sunroof mounting bracket. Background Art

[0002] A car sunroof refers to a window installed on the roof of a car. It has various designs and functions, including outward sliding, internally hidden, internally hidden and externally flipping, panoramic and curtain types. Car sunroofs have a wide range of functions, such as rapid cooling, fog elimination, rapid ventilation, reduced wind noise, better lighting and increased air circulation in the car, thereby providing passengers with a more comfortable riding environment. When installing a car sunroof, you need to ensure that the connection between the sunroof and the mounting bracket is firm and reliable.

[0003] However, the existing automobile sunroof mounting bracket has the following defects: for example, the sunroof mainly relies on the sealing strip at its edge to squeeze with the edge of the vehicle roof to achieve a sealing effect. When the vehicle is shipped out to install the sealing strip, since the height of the mounting bracket remains unchanged, the height of the sunroof cannot be fine-tuned. The sealing strip and the vehicle roof can only fit naturally. The sealing strip will age or deform as the vehicle ages, causing the sealing strip to be compressed and leaking. The conventional solution requires replacing the entire sealing strip, which increases maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to solve the problem that the sunroof sealing strip ages with the increase of service life, and the entire sealing ring needs to be replaced, which results in high maintenance costs.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in the present application is: a car sunroof mounting bracket, comprising a bracket base, a screw rod movably connected to the right inner wall of the bracket base, the other end of the screw rod penetrates the inner wall of the bracket base, the other end of the screw rod is fixedly connected to a knob, the knob is located on the outside of the bracket base, both ends of the outer wall of the screw rod are threadedly connected to sliders, the top of the slider is fixedly connected to a U-shaped frame, the inner wall of the U-shaped frame is movably connected to a linkage rod, a support plate is provided on the top of the bracket base, a rotation groove is provided at the bottom of the support plate, and there are two rotation grooves, the two rotation grooves are respectively located on both sides of the bottom of the support plate, and the top outer wall of the linkage rod is movably connected to the inner wall of the rotation groove.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, a limiting hole is opened on the top of the bracket base, and there are multiple limiting holes, and the multiple limiting holes are respectively located at multiple corners of the bracket base; the bottom of the support plate is fixedly connected to a limiting rod, and there are multiple limiting rods, and the multiple limiting rods are respectively located inside the multiple limiting holes.

[0007] As another preferred embodiment, a positioning column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate, and there are multiple positioning columns. A skylight glass is installed on the top of the support plate. A positioning hole is opened on the top edge of the skylight glass, and there are multiple positioning holes. The multiple positioning columns are respectively located inside the multiple positioning holes.

[0008] Further preferably, a bolt hole is provided at the top of the support plate, and a through hole is provided at the edge of the skylight glass, the bolt hole corresponds to the position of the through hole, a bolt is installed inside the bolt hole, a pressure plate is threadedly connected to the top outer wall of the bolt, the pressure plate is located above the skylight glass, a fixing column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure plate, and there are two fixing columns, a fixing hole is provided at the edge of the skylight glass, and there are two fixing holes, and the fixing column is located inside the fixing hole.

[0009] Further preferably, a lower rubber pad is provided in the interlayer between the bottom of the skylight glass and the top of the support plate, and an upper rubber pad is provided in the interlayer between the top of the skylight glass and the bottom of the pressure plate.

[0010] Further preferably, the outer wall of the bracket base is fixedly connected with a fixed support leg, and there are multiple fixed support legs.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0012] (1) When the sealing strip ages and cannot be pressed tightly against the vehicle roof, turn the knob to drive the screw rod to rotate, so that the two sliders threadedly connected to the two ends of the screw rod move away from each other along the inner wall of the bracket base. When the two sliders move away from each other, the U-shaped frame connected to the top and the bottom of the linkage rod movably connected inside the U-shaped frame move toward the end away from the bracket base, and the top of the linkage rod will move upward with the movement of its bottom to push the support plate, thereby causing the support plate to move upward together, and finally causing the sunroof glass on the support plate to move upward, thereby causing the sealing strip installed on the edge of the sunroof glass to move upward, so that the sealing strip and the edge of the vehicle roof are in close contact again, preventing If water leakage occurs again, there is no need to replace the entire sealing strip, thus saving maintenance costs. With the existing automobile sunroof mounting bracket, when the sealing strip is installed at the vehicle exiting the vehicle, the installation height remains unchanged and the sunroof height cannot be fine-tuned. The sealing strip and the vehicle roof can only fit naturally, and the sealing strip will age with the increase of vehicle service life, causing the sealing strip to be compressed and leaking. The conventional solution requires replacing the entire sealing strip, which increases maintenance costs. With this mounting bracket, the sealing strip is deformed and then fine-tuned to be compressed again by the sunroof glass and the edge of the vehicle roof, thus avoiding the situation where replacing the entire strip leads to increased maintenance costs.

[0013] (2) When installing the sunroof glass, align the positioning holes on the edge of the sunroof glass with the positioning columns connected to the top of the support plate. After positioning the sunroof glass on the support plate, lift the support plate upward for a short distance and insert the bolts into the bolt holes on the bottom of the support plate. At this time, the tops of the bolt holes penetrate the through holes on the edge of the sunroof glass. Then, put the pressure plate on the top outer wall of the bolts to keep the pressure plate parallel to the bracket base. Then, turn the bolts. The pressure plate will move closer to the upper surface of the sunroof glass as the bolts rotate until the bottom of the pressure plate fits with the upper surface of the sunroof glass. This ensures that the sunroof glass is firmly installed and will not shake as the vehicle travels. The lower rubber pad and the upper rubber pad can ensure that the sunroof glass will not be crushed by the pressure plate when it is fixed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] like Figure 1-6 The automobile sunroof mounting bracket shown includes a bracket base 1, a screw rod 2 is movably connected to the right inner wall of the bracket base 1, the other end of the screw rod 2 passes through the inner wall of the bracket base 1, and the other end of the screw rod 2 is fixedly connected to a knob 3, which is located on the outside of the bracket base 1, and both ends of the outer wall of the screw rod 2 are threadedly connected to sliders 4, the top of the slider 4 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped frame 5, and the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 5 is movably connected to a linkage rod 6, a support plate 7 is provided on the top of the bracket base 1, a rotation groove 8 is provided at the bottom of the support plate 7, and there are two rotation grooves 8, which are respectively located on both sides of the bottom of the support plate 7, and the top outer wall of the linkage rod 6 is movably connected to the inner wall of the rotation groove 8, a limiting hole 9 is provided at the top of the bracket base 1, and there are multiple limiting holes 9, and the multiple limiting holes 9 are respectively located at multiple corners of the bracket base 1, and a limiting rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 7, and there are multiple limiting rods 10, which are respectively located inside the multiple limiting holes 9.

[0026] When the sealing strip is aged and cannot be pressed tightly against the vehicle roof, the knob 3 is turned to drive the screw rod 2 to rotate, so that the two sliders 4 threadedly connected to the two ends of the screw rod 2 move away from each other along the inner wall of the bracket base 1. When the two sliders 4 move away from each other, the U-shaped frame 5 connected to the top and the bottom of the linkage rod 6 movably connected inside the U-shaped frame 5 move toward the end away from the bracket base 1, and the top of the linkage rod 6 will move upward with the movement of its own bottom to push the support plate 7, thereby causing the support plate 7 to move up together, and finally causing the sunroof glass 12 on the support plate 7 to move up, and in the process of the support plate 7 moving up, the multiple limit rods 10 connected to the bottom thereof move up along the multiple limit holes 9 opened at the top of the bracket base 1, respectively, so that the fine-tuning process of the support plate 7 is smoother, thereby causing the sealing strip installed at the edge of the sunroof glass 12 to move upward, so that the sealing strip and the edge of the vehicle roof are again in a close contact state to prevent water leakage from occurring again.

[0027] A positioning column 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 7, and there are multiple positioning columns 11. A skylight glass 12 is installed on the top of the support plate 7. A positioning hole 13 is opened on the top edge of the skylight glass 12, and there are multiple positioning holes 13. The multiple positioning columns 11 are respectively located inside the multiple positioning holes 13, which is convenient for positioning when installing the skylight glass 12.

[0028] A bolt hole 14 is provided at the top of the support plate 7, and a through hole 15 is provided at the edge of the skylight glass 12. The positions of the bolt hole 14 and the through hole 15 correspond to each other. A bolt 16 is installed inside the bolt hole 14. A pressure plate 17 is threadedly connected to the top outer wall of the bolt 16. The pressure plate 17 is located above the skylight glass 12. A fixing column 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pressure plate 17, and there are two fixing columns 18. A fixing hole 19 is provided at the edge of the skylight glass 12, and there are two fixing holes 19. The fixing column 18 is located inside the fixing hole 19.

[0029] When installing the sunroof glass 12, the positioning holes 13 opened on the edge of the sunroof glass 12 are respectively matched with the positioning columns 11 connected to the top of the support plate 7. After the sunroof glass 12 is positioned on the support plate 7, the support plate 7 is lifted upward for a short distance, and the bolts 16 are inserted into the bolt holes 14 opened at the bottom of the support plate 7. At this time, the top of the bolt hole 14 passes through the through hole 15 opened on the edge of the sunroof glass 12. Then, the pressure plate 17 is sleeved on the top outer wall of the bolt 16 to keep the pressure plate 17 parallel to the bracket base 1. Then, the bolt 16 is rotated. The pressure plate 17 will approach the upper surface of the sunroof glass 12 as the bolt 16 is rotated, until the bottom of the pressure plate 17 fits with the upper surface of the sunroof glass 12, so that the sunroof glass 12 is firmly installed and will not shake as the vehicle travels.

[0030] A lower rubber pad 20 is arranged in the interlayer between the bottom of the skylight glass 12 and the top of the support plate 7, and an upper rubber pad 21 is arranged in the interlayer between the top of the skylight glass 12 and the bottom of the pressure plate 17. The lower rubber pad 20 and the upper rubber pad 21 can ensure that the skylight glass 12 will not be crushed by the pressure plate 17 when it is fixed. The outer wall of the bracket base 1 is fixedly connected with a fixed support leg 22, and the number of the fixed support legs 22 is multiple.

[0031] Working principle: When installing the skylight glass 12, the positioning holes 13 opened on the edge of the skylight glass 12 are respectively matched with the positioning columns 11 connected to the top of the support plate 7. After the skylight glass 12 is positioned on the support plate 7, the support plate 7 is lifted up a short distance, and the bolts 16 are inserted from the bolt holes 14 opened at the bottom of the support plate 7. At this time, the top of the bolt hole 14 passes through the through hole 15 opened on the edge of the skylight glass 12. Then, the pressing plate 17 is sleeved on the top outer wall of the bolt 16 to keep the pressing plate 17 parallel to the bracket base 1. Then, the bolt 16 is rotated. The pressing plate 17 will approach the upper surface of the skylight glass 12 as the bolt 16 is rotated, until the bottom of the pressing plate 17 fits with the upper surface of the skylight glass 12, so that the skylight glass 12 is firmly installed without When the vehicle shakes while traveling and the sealing strip ages and is not pressed tightly against the vehicle roof, the knob 3 is turned to drive the screw rod 2 to rotate, so that the two sliders 4 threadedly connected to the two ends of the screw rod 2 move away from each other along the inner wall of the bracket base 1. When the two sliders 4 move away from each other, the U-shaped frame 5 connected to the top and the bottom of the linkage rod 6 movably connected inside the U-shaped frame 5 move toward the end away from the bracket base 1, and the top of the linkage rod 6 will move upward with the movement of its own bottom end to push the support plate 7, thereby moving the support plate 7 up together, and finally moving the sunroof glass 12 on the support plate 7 up, thereby moving the sealing strip installed on the edge of the sunroof glass 12 upward, so that the sealing strip and the edge of the vehicle roof are in close contact again to prevent water leakage from occurring again.
