[0041] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0042] Embodiment 1
[0043] This embodiment relates to a subframe, which can not only increase the rigidity of the first steering gear installation point, but also increase the force transmission path at the first steering gear installation point, thereby improving the collision force dispersion effect and further improving the collision safety.
[0044] In terms of overall structure, Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the sub-frame of this embodiment includes sub-frame longitudinal beams 1 arranged on the left and right sides, a first sub-frame cross beam 2 and a second sub-frame cross beam 3 connected between the sub-frame longitudinal beams 1 on both sides, and a steering gear mounting bracket 5.
[0045] Secondly, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is located in the area surrounded by the first sub-frame cross beam 2, the second sub-frame cross beam 3 and the sub-frame longitudinal beams 1 on both sides, and is arranged close to the first sub-frame cross beam 2 and the sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 on one side. In addition, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is provided with a first steering gear mounting point, and the rear end of the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is connected to the sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 on the same side, and the front end of the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is connected to the first sub-frame cross beam 2.
[0046] At this time, as set above, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 can be connected to the subframe longitudinal beam 1 and the first subframe cross beam 2 respectively. Based on this, not only the stiffness of the first steering gear mounting point can be increased to improve the installation stability of the steering gear, but also the force transmission path of the first steering gear mounting point can be increased, which is beneficial to the dispersion of collision force, thereby helping to improve collision safety.
[0047] Based on the above overall introduction, in detail, in the specific implementation, the subframe of this embodiment is generally the front subframe in the vehicle, and correspondingly, the first subframe cross beam 2 is the middle cross beam of the subframe, the second subframe cross beam 3 is the rear cross beam of the subframe, and the rear end of the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is preferably connected to the subframe longitudinal beam 1 on the left side, that is, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is located on the inner side of the subframe longitudinal beam 1 on the left side, and at the same time, the front end of the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is connected to the first subframe cross beam 2, which will not be repeated below.
[0048] Of course, the related structural parts not mentioned in the subframe of this embodiment can refer to the various structures in the vehicle body structure well known to those skilled in the art, such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the left and right sub-frame longitudinal beams 1 are provided with body connection brackets 9 for connecting with the body longitudinal beams 100, and the left and right sub-frame front cross beams 4 located in front of the first sub-frame cross beam 2 are also provided between the left and right sub-frame longitudinal beams 1.
[0049] In this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, Figures 1 to 3 As shown in FIG. , a beam connecting plate 6 is connected between the bottoms of the first sub-frame beam 2 and the second sub-frame beam 3 , and the bottom end of the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is connected to the beam connecting plate 6 .
[0050] Here, by further connecting the steering gear mounting bracket 5 to the crossbeam connecting plate 6, the second subframe crossbeam 3 can be used to increase the stiffness of the steering gear mounting point, and the collision force transmission path at the mounting point position after the steering gear is installed can also be increased, thereby facilitating the improvement of the collision safety of the entire vehicle.
[0051] When this embodiment is implemented, the cross beam connecting plate 6 can be a connecting plate separately arranged between the first sub-frame cross beam 2 and the second sub-frame cross beam 3, or when both the first sub-frame cross beam 2 and the second sub-frame cross beam adopt an upper and lower plate buckled structure, the cross beam connecting plate 6 and the cross beam lower plate of the two are an integrated structure.
[0052] In this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, combined with Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 includes a bracket upper plate 51, and the first steering gear mounting point is arranged on the bracket upper plate 51. The rear end of the bracket upper plate 51 is connected to the auxiliary frame longitudinal beam 1 on the same side, the front end of the bracket upper plate 51 is connected to the first auxiliary frame cross beam 2, the bottom end of the bracket upper plate 51 is connected to the cross beam connecting plate 6, and a cavity 50 is formed between the bracket upper plate 51, the first auxiliary frame cross beam 2, the cross beam connecting plate 6, and the auxiliary frame longitudinal beam 1 on the same side.
[0053] It can be understood that the steering gear mounting bracket 5 includes a bracket upper plate 51, and a cavity 50 is formed between the bracket upper plate 51 and the subframe longitudinal beam 1, the first subframe cross beam 2 and the cross beam connecting plate 6, which can ensure the structural strength of the steering gear mounting bracket 5, and further help to ensure the rigidity of the first steering gear mounting point.
[0054] Furthermore, as a preferred implementation form, in this embodiment, an avoidance notch 510 is provided on the bracket upper plate 51 near the position where the same-side sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 is connected to the first sub-frame cross beam 2 , and a reinforcing rib 513 is provided on the bracket upper plate 51 surrounding the avoidance notch 510 .
[0055] By configuring in this way, the avoidance gap 510 can be provided to facilitate the arrangement of the bracket upper plate 51 in the sub-frame, and the reinforcing ribs 513 can be provided to reduce the influence of the avoidance gap 510 on the structural strength of the bracket upper plate 51 while ensuring the overall rigidity of the steering gear mounting bracket 5.
[0056] In addition, in this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, continue to refer to Figure 4 As shown, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 also includes a bracket lower plate 52, which is located in the cavity 50 and connected to the bottom of the bracket upper plate 51. At this time, based on the arrangement of the bracket lower plate 52, the overall structural strength of the steering gear mounting bracket 5 can be further increased, thereby enhancing the rigidity of the steering gear mounting point.
[0057] To expand, in this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, the first steering gear mounting point includes a steering gear mounting sleeve 54 provided on the bracket upper plate 51. The top of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 is connected to the bracket upper plate 51, and the bottom of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 is connected to the bracket lower plate 52.
[0058] As configured above, the top of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 is connected to the bracket upper plate 51, and the bottom is connected to the bracket lower plate 52, which can not only reduce the opening stress of the sleeve mounting point of the bracket upper plate 51, but also shorten the sleeve length, which is beneficial to the weight reduction and verticality control of the sleeve.
[0059] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, combined with Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the top of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 is provided with a radially outwardly extending boss 541, so that the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 adopts a T-shaped sleeve structure. Specifically, the boss 541 overlaps the top of the bracket upper plate 51, and the bottom of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 passes through the bracket lower plate 52.
[0060] Here, based on the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 adopting a T-shaped sleeve, the top boss 541 is overlapped on the top of the bracket upper plate 51, and the bottom of the sleeve also passes through the structural design of the bracket lower plate 52, which is conducive to ensuring the reliability of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 on the steering gear mounting bracket 5.
[0061] In addition, in this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, the bracket upper plate 51 and the bracket lower plate 52 are integrally stamped. Figures 4 to 7 As shown in the figure, the bracket upper plate 51 has an upper plate top wall 511 and an upper plate side wall 512, the bracket lower plate 52 has a lower plate bottom wall 521 and a lower plate side wall 522, and the lower plate bottom wall 521 is connected to the upper plate side wall 512, the lower plate side wall 522 is connected to the upper plate top wall 511, and a cavity 53 is formed between the bracket upper plate 51 and the bracket lower plate 52.
[0062] The main advantage of such a configuration is that by integrally stamping the upper plate 51 and the lower plate 52 of the bracket, the preparation of both can be facilitated. At the same time, a cavity 53 is formed between the upper and lower plates of the bracket, which can better improve the structural strength of the steering gear mounting bracket 5, thereby improving the rigidity of the first steering gear mounting point.
[0063] It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, in the specific implementation, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown in the figure, a first connecting hole 5111 is provided on the top wall 511 of the upper plate for the steering gear mounting sleeve 54 to pass through and overlap, and a second connecting hole 5211 corresponding to the first connecting hole 5111 is provided on the bottom wall 521 of the lower plate to cooperate with the bottom of the steering gear mounting sleeve 54.
[0064] Secondly, the front end of the upper plate top wall 511 of this embodiment is also provided with a first top wall flange 514 for connecting with the top of the first sub-frame cross beam 2, and the rear end of the upper plate top wall 511 is provided with a second top wall flange 516 for connecting with the top of the same-side sub-frame longitudinal beam 1. At the same time, the front end of the upper plate side wall 512 of this embodiment is provided with a first side wall flange 515 for connecting with the side of the first sub-frame cross beam 2, and the rear end of the upper plate side wall 512 is provided with a second side wall flange 517 for connecting with the side of the same-side sub-frame longitudinal beam 1. In this way, the connection area between the bracket upper plate 51 and the same-side sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 and the first sub-frame cross beam 2 can be increased, so as to improve the connection strength of the bracket upper plate 51.
[0065] In addition, in this embodiment, as a preferred implementation form, continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, second steering gear mounting points are respectively provided on the auxiliary frame longitudinal beams 1 on both sides, and the connecting lines between the second steering gear mounting points and the first steering gear mounting points on both sides are in the form of a triangle.
[0066] Here, when the sub-frame of the present embodiment is the front sub-frame, the first steering gear mounting point is the rear steering gear mounting point, and the second steering gear mounting points on both sides are the front steering gear mounting points. At the same time, the connection line between the front and rear steering gear mounting points is formed into a triangle, and the high stability of the triangle structure can be utilized to ensure the stability of the steering gear installation. In the specific structure, the second steering gear mounting point on each side includes a steering gear front mounting sleeve 7 provided on the longitudinal beam 1 of the sub-frame on the same side, and each steering gear front mounting sleeve 7 is used to be screwed and connected to the corresponding mounting position on the steering gear.
[0067] At the same time, as a preferred implementation form, in this embodiment, multiple swing arm rear mounting points are provided on the auxiliary frame longitudinal beams 1 on both sides. When viewed from the left and right direction of the vehicle, the steering gear mounting bracket 5 is arranged corresponding to one of the swing arm rear mounting points on the auxiliary frame longitudinal beam 1 on the same side.
[0068] It is understandable that by arranging the steering gear mounting bracket 5 corresponding to one of the rear mounting points of the swing arm, the rigidity of the rear mounting point of the swing arm can be increased with the help of the steering gear mounting bracket 5, thereby facilitating the improvement of the stability of the swing arm installation.
[0069] In specific implementation, the above-mentioned swing arm rear mounting point may include a swing arm rear mounting sleeve 8 provided on the auxiliary frame longitudinal beam 1, that is, the rear mounting point of the swing arm is connected to the auxiliary frame through each swing arm rear mounting sleeve 8. Of course, the number and arrangement of the swing arm rear mounting points (that is, the swing arm rear mounting sleeve 8) on each side auxiliary frame longitudinal beam 1 can be set and adjusted accordingly according to the actual installation requirements of the swing arm. For example, each side auxiliary frame longitudinal beam 1 is provided with three swing arm rear mounting points arranged at intervals along its own length direction, and the swing arm rear mounting point located at the front is arranged correspondingly to the steering gear mounting bracket 5 on the same side.
[0070] The sub-frame of this embodiment, by connecting the steering gear mounting bracket 5 to the sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 and the first sub-frame cross beam 2 respectively, can increase the rigidity of the first steering gear mounting point with the help of the sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 and the first sub-frame cross beam 2, and can also increase the force transmission path of the first steering gear mounting point by utilizing the connection between the sub-frame longitudinal beam 1 and the first sub-frame cross beam 2, which is beneficial to the dispersion of collision force and helps to improve collision safety.

At the same time, it can also increase the force transmission path of the first steering gear mounting point, which is beneficial to the dispersion of collision force, thereby helping to improve the safety quality of the whole vehicle.
[0074] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
