[0002] The car coolant pot is a device used specifically to hold car coolant in the car. Coolant is an essential and important part of the car's operation. If there is a lack of coolant, the engine temperature will be too high. In severe cases, it may even cause the engine to burn out and damage the vehicle.

[0003] At present, the coolant pot of an automobile is usually fixedly installed on the vehicle body, and at least two connecting ears are fixed on the side wall of the coolant pot. When the coolant pot of the automobile needs to be installed, the coolant pot is first pre-placed at the installation position of the vehicle body, and then the connecting ears are aligned with the installation holes, and then the bolts are tightened, and the coolant pot is fixed in the vehicle body.

[0004] However, the car is often accompanied by vibration when driving. Since the coolant bottle is rigidly connected to the car body through the connecting ear, when the car shakes, the vibration force is directly transmitted to the coolant bottle. If this continues for a long time, the connecting ear is prone to breakage. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 This application is described in further detail.

[0031] Example:

[0032] See also Figure 1 A mounting bracket for a coolant pot, comprising a U-shaped frame 1, wherein the U-shaped frame 1 is used for fixing a pot body 2 in a car body. A first mounting ear 3 is fixed to the side wall of the U-shaped frame 1, and the cross section of the first mounting ear 3 is S-shaped. A fixing ear 4 is fixed to the side wall of the pot body 2. In the present embodiment, three fixing ears 4 are provided, two of which are fixed in parallel to one side of the pot body 2, and the other is fixed to the opposite side of the pot body 2. A buffer clip 5 is clamped and installed on the fixing ear 4, the U-shaped frame 1 is located below the buffer clip 5, and the pot body 2 is provided with a fixing assembly for fixing the U-shaped frame 1, the buffer clip 5 and the fixing ear 4 to each other.

[0033] The kettle body 2 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped frame 1 through a fixing assembly, and the U-shaped frame 1 is fixed in the vehicle body through a first mounting ear 3. When the kettle body 2 vibrates, the vibration force is transmitted to the buffer clip 5 through the fixing ear 4, and the buffer clip 5 buffers the vibration force, thereby reducing the rigid vibration of the kettle body 2 and increasing the service life of the fixing ear 4.

[0034] For details, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fixing assembly includes a first bolt 6 and a first nut 7. The first bolt 6 is located below the U-shaped frame 1. One end of the first bolt 6 passes through the U-shaped frame 1, the buffer clip 5 and the fixing ear 4 in sequence, and extends above the fixing ear 4. The first nut 7 is located above the fixing ear 4, and the first nut 7 is threadedly connected to one end of the first bolt 6.

[0035] When the first bolt 6 and the first nut 7 are tightened, the U-shaped frame 1 , the buffer clip 5 and the fixing ear 4 are fixedly connected to each other, and the fixing ear 4 is clamped in the buffer clip 5 .

[0036] See also Figure 2 In order to facilitate the buffer clip 5 to buffer the vibration force, the buffer clip 5 includes an upper clamp fitting portion 8, a connecting portion 9 and a lower clamp arch portion 10. The upper clamp fitting portion 8, the connecting portion 9 and the lower clamp arch portion 10 are integrally formed, and the three are made of metal material, and the three are enclosed in a side U shape. Among them, the upper clamp fitting portion 8 is fitted to the top surface of the fixing ear 4, and the lower clamp arch portion 10 is fitted between the U-shaped frame 1 and the fixing ear 4.

[0037] Since metal has toughness, the lower clamping arch portion 10 has deformation capability, and during the deformation process, the vibration extrusion force is buffered.

[0038] See also Figure 2 In order to increase the buffering performance of the buffer clip 5, the lower clip arch 10 is installed with a reinforcement member, which is a shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11. The lower clip arch 10 is penetrated with a through hole 12 for the first bolt 6 to penetrate. The shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 is installed between the lower clip arch 10 and the fixing ear 4. One end of the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 is fixedly connected to the hole wall of the through hole 12. The other end of the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 is inclined toward the direction close to the upper clip fitting portion 8, and the other end of the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 is penetrated with a connecting hole 13. The first bolt 6 is plugged into the connecting hole 13.

[0039] When the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 is used, the first bolt 6 is passed through the through hole 12 of the lower clamping arch 10, and the first bolt 6 is passed through the connecting hole 13 of the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11. After the first nut 7 is tightened, the bottom surface of the fixing ear 4 is pressed against the side wall of the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11. When the kettle body 2 shakes, the fixing ear 4 first squeezes the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11, and then transmits the squeezing force to the lower clamping arch 10, and the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 and the lower clamping arch 10 jointly buffer the vibration force.

[0040] It is worth mentioning that see Figure 2 The clamping end of the upper clamp fitting portion 8 is fixedly connected with a bending piece 14, which is slightly inclined upward. Under the action of the bending piece 14, the clamping opening of the buffer clamp 5 is enlarged, thereby improving the convenience of clamping the fixing ear 4 in the buffer clamp 5.

[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In order to further enhance the stability of the kettle body 2 when installed in the vehicle body, a side frame 15 is installed on one side of the kettle body 2, and a second mounting ear 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the side frame 15 away from the kettle body 2. The second mounting ear 16 cooperates with the first mounting ear 3 to fix the kettle body 2 in the vehicle body.

[0042] It should be noted that the U-shaped frame 1 is equipped with a connection mechanism fixedly connected to the side frame 15, and the connection mechanism includes a second bolt 17 and a second nut 18. A connection ear 23 is fixed to the top of the side frame 15. There are two connection ears 23, and the two connection ears 23 and the side frame 15 are enclosed in a Y shape. One end of one of the connection ears 23 is fixedly connected to an insertion ear 19, and a plug hole 20 is provided on the top surface of the side frame 15 at a position corresponding to the insertion ear 19, and the insertion ear 19 is plugged into the plug hole 20. The second bolt 17 is located at the position of the other connection ear 23, and one end of the second bolt 17 passes through the U-shaped frame 1 and the other connection ear 23 in sequence, and extends below the other connection ear 23. The second nut 18 is threadedly connected to one end of the second bolt 17.

[0043] When the side frame 15 needs to be installed, the inserting ear 19 on one of the connecting ears 23 is first aligned and inserted into the insertion hole 20, and then one end of the second bolt 17 is passed through the U-shaped frame 1 and the other connecting ear 23 in sequence, and then the second nut 18 is threadedly tightened. At this time, the side frame 15 and the U-shaped frame 1 are fixed to each other.

[0044] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 In order to prevent the side frame 15 from bending and to improve the convenience of plugging the ear 19 into the socket 20, a guide 21 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the kettle body 2. The projection of the guide 21 is in a T shape. A guide groove 22 is provided on the side wall of the side frame 15 at a position corresponding to the guide 21. The guide 21 is plugged into the guide groove 22. When the guide 21 is plugged into the guide groove 22, the two sides of the guide 21 squeeze and restrict the side frame 15, thereby preventing the side frame 15 from bending outward.

[0045] Working principle of a mounting bracket for a coolant pot:

[0046] When installing the kettle body 2 in the vehicle body, first assemble the U-shaped frame 1 and the side frame 15 on the kettle body 2. To this end, first clamp the buffer clip 5 on the fixing ear 4, then install the U-shaped frame 1 on the bottom surface of the buffer clip 5, and then insert the first bolt 6 through the U-shaped frame 1, the lower clip arch 10, the connecting hole 13 of the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 and the upper clip fitting portion 8 in sequence, and then tighten the first nut 7 with threads, and then the U-shaped frame 1 is fixedly connected to the kettle body 2.

[0047] Then, the guide groove 22 of the side frame 15 is inserted along the guide member 21 so that the ear 19 is inserted into the socket 20 , and then the second bolt 17 is inserted and the second nut 18 is tightened in sequence. At this time, the U-shaped frame 1 is fixedly connected to the side frame 15 .

[0048] Under the action of the first mounting ear 3 and the second mounting ear 16 , the kettle body 2 is finally fixedly installed in the vehicle body.

[0049] When the kettle body 2 shakes during driving, the kettle body 2 drives the fixed ear 4 to squeeze the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11, and the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 then squeezes the lower clamp arch portion 10. At this time, the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 and the lower clamp are elastically deformed and jointly buffer the vibration force.

[0050] In summary, the shock-absorbing reinforcement sheet 11 and the lower clamp are elastically deformed and jointly buffer the vibration force, thereby helping to reduce the vibration force of the coolant pot and increase the service life of the fixing ear 4.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
