[0029] As described in the background art section, with the acceleration of the urbanization process, asphalt roads, as an important part of modern urban infrastructure, have been widely covered in every corner of the city. However, this convenience also brings challenges during the rainy season. Especially when the road surface drainage system fails to cope with a large amount of precipitation in a timely manner, waterlogging is extremely likely to form in low-lying areas or sections with poor drainage, posing a great risk to vehicles in motion. Vehicle flooding not only brings great inconvenience to vehicle owners, but may also cause serious consequences such as damage to electrical components inside the vehicle and engine water ingress, resulting in high repair costs or even vehicle scrapping, causing unnecessary economic losses to vehicle owners.

[0030] During the implementation of the present utility model, the applicant found that although there are already some devices on the market that can increase the ground clearance of vehicles, most of them have problems such as complex operation, large volume, inconvenient daily carrying and storage, and low degree of intelligence, making it difficult to meet the needs of modern urban vehicles for coping with sudden waterlogging situations. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop a vehicle bracket that can not only effectively improve the wading ability of vehicles but also be convenient for daily use and management.

[0031] The following will refer to Figures 1 - 3 to describe the vehicle bracket according to the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0032] Refer to Figure 1 , which is the schematic diagram of the vehicle bracket structure provided by the embodiments of the present utility model. Figure 1 .

[0033] The vehicle support 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: an extension assembly 2, the extension assembly 2 includes a support outer cylinder 21 and an extension support rod 22 that are coaxially sleeved in sequence, one side of the extension support rod 22 is built inside the support outer cylinder 21, a support base 3 is arranged at the end of the side where the extension support rod 22 exposes out of the support outer cylinder 21, and the extension support rod 22 can extend out of the support outer cylinder 21 in the axial direction; a driving mechanism for driving the extension support rod 22 to be at least partially exposed out of the support outer cylinder 21 in the axial direction; a rotating mechanism 1, the rotating mechanism 1 is arranged on the vehicle chassis and is connected to the extension assembly 2 for driving the extension assembly 2 to perform a rotating motion so that the extension assembly 2 moves from a first working position to a second working position.

[0034] Specifically, the support outer cylinder 21, as the main part of the extension assembly 2, has sufficient strength and stability to accommodate and guide the movement of the extension support rod 22. The extension support rod 22 is coaxially sleeved inside the support outer cylinder 21 and can freely expand and contract in the axial direction, so that the vehicle support 100 can quickly adjust its length when needed to adapt to the support requirements of different heights. The driving mechanism is connected to the extension support rod 22 and drives the extension support rod 22 to move in the axial direction through mechanical, hydraulic or electric means, etc., to achieve the state that at least part of it is exposed out of the support outer cylinder 21. The rotating mechanism 1 is installed on the vehicle chassis and is closely connected to the extension assembly 2. It can drive the entire extension assembly 2 to perform a rotating motion, so that the vehicle support 100 rotates from the initial first working position (such as the storage state when the vehicle is parked) to the second working position (such as the unfolded state when the vehicle needs to be supported).

[0035] Reference Figure 2 , is a schematic diagram of the vehicle support structure provided by the embodiment of the present utility model Figure 2 .

[0036] Specifically, the support inner cylinder 23 is arranged to be sleeved between the support outer cylinder 21 and the extension support rod 22 to form a three-layer coaxial sleeved structure.

[0037] As an optional embodiment, the extension assembly 2 further includes a support inner cylinder 23, the support inner cylinder 23 is sleeved between the support outer cylinder 21 and the extension support rod 22, and the support inner cylinder 23 can be at least partially exposed out of the support outer cylinder 21 in the axial direction under the drive of the driving mechanism.

[0038] As an optional embodiment, the driving mechanism can drive the extension support rod 22 to retract at least part of the extension support rod 22 that is exposed out of the support outer cylinder 21 into the support outer cylinder 21 along the axial direction of the support outer cylinder 21.

[0039] As an optional embodiment, the extension support rod 22 can be at least partially exposed out of the support inner cylinder 23 in the axial direction under the drive of the driving mechanism.

[0040] As an optional embodiment, the driving mechanism can drive the extension support rod 22 to retract at least a part of the extension support rod 22 exposed outside the support inner cylinder 23 into the support outer cylinder 21 along the axial direction of the support inner cylinder 23.

[0041] Specifically, the coaxial socket structure of the support outer cylinder 21, the support inner cylinder 23, and the extension support rod 22 enables the vehicle bracket 100 to achieve multi-stage telescoping. First, the extension support rod 22 can extend from the support inner cylinder 23 to adjust its initial length according to requirements. Subsequently, if further length increase is needed, the support inner cylinder 23 can extend from the support outer cylinder 21. The three-stage coaxial socket structure not only significantly increases the total elongation of the bracket, enabling it to adapt to various support requirements from low to high, but also increases the strength and stability of the bracket, while providing more levels and flexibility for the telescoping function of the bracket.

[0042] It should be noted that the telescoping mechanism of the extension support rod 22 may include various methods such as threaded connection, sliding fit, hydraulic or pneumatic drive.

[0043] As an optional embodiment, the rotating mechanism 1 can drive the extension assembly 2 to rotate around the connection point of the rotating mechanism 1 and the extension assembly 2, so that the extension assembly 2 rotates from a first working position parallel to the plane where the vehicle chassis is located to a second working position perpendicular to the plane where the vehicle chassis is located.

[0044] Reference Figure 3 , which is a schematic diagram of the storage state of the vehicle bracket provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

[0045] In the initial state (i.e., when the vehicle bracket 100 is not working), the extension assembly 2 is in a position parallel to the plane where the vehicle chassis is located (fitted and retracted against the sill beam 4). In this state, the bracket may be more convenient for storage or maintain a low profile when additional support height is not required. When the vehicle encounters dangerous situations such as wading, the rotating mechanism 1 starts to work, driving the extension assembly 2 to rotate around the rotation center until it reaches a position perpendicular to the plane where the vehicle chassis is located, in order to cooperate with the driving mechanism to drive the elongation of the extension assembly 2 and lift the wading vehicle off the wading road surface.

[0046] It should be noted that the rotating mechanism 1 may be powered by an electric motor, a hydraulic cylinder, or a manual mechanical device, etc. The choice of power source will depend on the use of the bracket, the required torque, and user preferences.

[0047] As an optional embodiment, at least four rotating mechanisms 1 can be fixedly installed on the vehicle chassis, and at least four rotating mechanisms 1 are arranged opposite to each other in pairs.

[0048] Specifically, the vehicle bracket 100 can be integrally installed on the sill beam 4 on the side of the vehicle door panel 5 of the vehicle chassis. Preferably, four rotating mechanisms 1 can be correspondingly installed on the sill beams 4 at the four wheel positions of the vehicle. By installing four or more rotating mechanisms 1, the vehicle bracket 100 can form multiple support points on the vehicle chassis. These support points jointly share the weight and load of the vehicle, making the bracket more stable and reliable during the support process.

[0049] Furthermore, in combination with Figure 1 , at least one locking member is provided at one end of the extended support rod 22 built into the support outer cylinder 21. The extended support rod 22 can slide in the axial direction and is fixed at a predetermined position in the support outer cylinder 21 through the locking member.

[0050] Specifically, at least one locking member is provided at one end of the support outer cylinder 21. Its main purpose is to firmly fix the extended support rod 22 on the support outer cylinder 21 through the locking member when the extended support rod 22 slides to a predetermined position. In this way, the bracket can remain stable when bearing the weight of the vehicle or other loads, without unexpected telescoping or loosening.

[0051] It should be noted that in consideration of the convenience of user operation in the present utility model, the locking member can be, but is not limited to, a manual knob, an automatic locking mechanism, or an intelligent locking system combined with electronic control.

[0052] Furthermore, in combination with Figure 2 , at least one first locking member is provided at one end of the extended support rod 22 built into the support inner cylinder 23, and at least one second locking member is provided at one end of the support inner cylinder 23 built into the support outer cylinder 21; the extended support rod 22 can slide in the axial direction and is fixed at a predetermined position in the support inner cylinder 23 through the first locking member, and the support inner cylinder 23 and the extended support rod 22 can slide as a whole in the axial direction and are fixed as a whole at a predetermined position in the support outer cylinder 21 through the second locking member.

[0053] Specifically, the first locking member (not shown in the figure) is provided at one end of the support inner cylinder 23 for locking the position of the extended support rod 22 in the support inner cylinder 23. When the extended support rod 22 slides to the required length, the first locking member can quickly and accurately fix it at a predetermined position in the support inner cylinder 23 to prevent it from accidentally sliding or loosening. The second locking member (not shown in the figure) is provided at one end of the support outer cylinder 21 for locking the position of the support inner cylinder 23 (and the extended support rod 22 inside it) in the support outer cylinder 21. When the support inner cylinder 23 (carrying the extended support rod 22) slides to an appropriate position, the second locking member can ensure the stability of the entire assembly in the support outer cylinder 21 and prevent it from moving due to external factors.

[0054] In a specific application, the user can first adjust the length of the extended support rod 22 in the support inner tube 23 and lock it with the first locking member. Then, the position of the support inner tube 23 (and the extended support rod 22 inside it) in the support outer tube 21 can be adjusted as needed, and the whole can be locked with the second locking member. Through the two-layer locking mechanism, the vehicle bracket 100 can maintain extremely high stability when bearing loads. Both the extended support rod 22 and the support inner tube 23 are effectively fixed in their respective positions, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the entire bracket system.

[0055] It should be noted that the “axial direction” mentioned in the present invention can be understood as the axial direction of the extension component 2 .

[0056] As can be seen from the above, the vehicle bracket provided by the utility model includes: an extension component, the extension component includes a supporting outer cylinder and an extension support rod that are coaxially sleeved in sequence, one side of the extension support rod is built into the supporting outer cylinder, and a support base is provided at the end of the side of the extension support rod that is exposed from the supporting outer cylinder, and the extension support rod can extend from the supporting outer cylinder in the axial direction; a driving mechanism, the driving mechanism is used to drive the extension support rod to at least partially expose the supporting outer cylinder in the axial direction; a rotating mechanism, the rotating mechanism is arranged on the vehicle chassis, connected to the extension component, and is used to drive the extension component to rotate so that the extension component moves from the first working position to the second working position. The vehicle bracket provided by the utility model drives the extension component to rotate from the first working position to the second working position as needed through the rotating mechanism, so that the extension support rod and the extension outer cylinder of the extension component extend, and the vehicle chassis is lifted up with the cooperation of the support base, which not only improves the wading security of the vehicle, but also can protect the vehicle chassis from scratches and collisions of underwater obstacles to a certain extent, and extend the service life of the vehicle.

[0057] Based on the same utility model concept, corresponding to the vehicle bracket provided in any of the above embodiments, the utility model further provides a vehicle, including the above vehicle. When the vehicle encounters adverse conditions such as wading, the vehicle bracket can raise the vehicle body off the ground to ensure the stability and safety of the vehicle and cargo.
