[0032] The steering oil tank bracket 1 according to an embodiment of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the steering oil tank bracket 1 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes a side plate portion 100 and a front mounting plate portion 200 .
[0034] The side plate portion 100 is suitable for being installed on the outer side of the longitudinal beam 10 and extending upward from the longitudinal beam 10. The front mounting plate portion 200 is connected to the front side of the side plate portion 100 and is bent toward the outer side of the longitudinal beam 10. The front mounting plate portion 200 is configured with a plurality of hollow holes 210, which are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. The front mounting plate portion 200 is suitable for installing an oil tank above the longitudinal beam 10.
[0035] According to the steering oil tank bracket 1 of the embodiment of the utility model, the front mounting plate 200 is fixedly connected to the oil tank through the connecting bracket, and the side plate 100 is constructed with a plurality of side mounting holes, which are connected to the longitudinal beam 10 by penetrating fasteners. The structure of the plurality of hollow holes 210 constructed on the front mounting plate 200 can effectively reduce the total weight of the steering oil tank bracket 1. The structure of the plurality of hollow holes 210 makes part of the front mounting plate 200 a hollow structure, which can reduce the amount of materials and reduce the weight of the steering oil tank bracket 1, thereby making the steering oil tank bracket 1 more lightweight. Specifically, compared with the steering oil tank bracket 1.76KG in the related art, the weight of the steering oil tank bracket 1 of this embodiment is 1.19KG, which is about 0.57KG less, a decrease of 32%. At the same time, by designing the size, arrangement and position of the plurality of hollow holes 210, the steering oil tank bracket 1 can be reduced in weight while still ensuring that the steering oil tank bracket 1 has sufficient bearing capacity, and the strength and stability of the steering oil tank bracket 1 can be guaranteed. At the same time, the structure of the hollow hole 210 can reduce material consumption and component manufacturing costs. Compared with the steering oil tank bracket 1 without a hollow design, less raw materials are used and the processing complexity is reduced, thereby saving production costs.
[0036] Therefore, the steering oil tank bracket 1 according to the embodiment of the utility model has the advantages of high lightness and reduced manufacturing costs of parts and components.
[0037] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the plurality of hollow holes 210 include a first hollow hole 211, a second hollow hole 212, and a third hollow hole 213. The first hollow hole 211 is located at the upper portion of the front mounting plate portion 200, and the first hollow hole 211 is configured as a circular hole. The second hollow hole 212 is located below the first hollow hole 211, and the second hollow hole 212 is configured as a circular hole with a diameter greater than that of the first hollow hole 212. The third hollow hole 213 is located below the second hollow hole 212, and the third hollow hole 213 is configured as an elliptical hole, and the major axis of the elliptical hole extends in the vertical direction.
[0038] Among them, the first hollow hole 211, the second hollow hole 212 and the third hollow hole 213 are arranged side by side in the vertical direction of the front mounting plate 200. Through reasonable layout and design, multiple hollow holes 210 of different shapes can cooperate with each other to provide sufficient structural support and strength to ensure that the steering oil tank bracket 1 will not be deformed or unstable during use. At the same time, the presence of multiple hollow holes 210 effectively reduces the total weight of the steering oil tank bracket 1. By using hollow holes 210 of different shapes and sizes, a lighter design can be achieved without affecting the structural strength, and the manufacturing cost can also be reduced and the production efficiency can be improved.
[0039] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the upper portion of the front mounting plate portion 200 is constructed with a plurality of mounting holes 201, the plurality of mounting holes 201 are arranged in a rectangle, and the first hollow hole 211 is located at the center of the plurality of mounting holes 201. By arranging the plurality of mounting holes 201 in a rectangular shape, the steering oil tank bracket 1 can be adapted to different installation requirements, providing more flexible installation options. The first hollow hole 211 is located at the center of the mounting hole 201 and can be used as the main installation position, which is convenient for the installer to position and fix the steering oil tank bracket 1. Constructing a plurality of mounting holes 201 and locating the first hollow hole 211 in the center can effectively disperse the installation force and support points, improve the structural stability of the steering oil tank bracket 1, and avoid the occurrence of offset or instability in the installation position.
[0040] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the side panel 100 extends obliquely toward the inner side of the longitudinal beam 10 above the longitudinal beam 10. The bottom of the side panel 100 is connected to the longitudinal beam 10, the side panel 100 is arranged in accordance with the front mounting plate 200, and the top of the side panel 100 is located above the longitudinal beam 10. The side panel 100 cooperates with the longitudinal beam 10 to form a relatively stable structure, which helps to resist external pressure and load. At the same time, a certain space is left between the side panel 100 and the longitudinal beam 10 during the extension process, which can provide space for pipeline layout, improve space utilization and overall aesthetic performance. Similarly, the side panel 100 is located on the outside of the longitudinal beam 10, which increases the internal space of the longitudinal beam 10 and facilitates the layout of other components.
[0041] In some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the width of the front mounting plate portion 200 gradually increases from bottom to top. The width of the top of the front mounting plate portion 200 is relatively large, which can increase the contact area with the oil tank 20, increase the stability of the connection between the oil tank 20 and the steering oil tank bracket 1, help reduce the shaking and vibration of the vehicle during driving, and increase driving safety. At the same time, the larger width of the top can make the steering oil tank bracket 1 more evenly distributed when bearing pressure, avoid single-point overload or structural imbalance, thereby improving the overall performance of the steering oil tank bracket 1. In addition, the front mounting plate portion 200 with a gradually decreasing width can reduce the overall weight of the steering oil tank bracket 1 while ensuring that the steering oil tank bracket 1 has sufficient structural strength, thereby improving fuel economy and lightweight.
[0042] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the width of the side plate 100 gradually decreases in the upper direction of the longitudinal beam 10. For example, the side plate 100 is an arc-shaped structure, the closer to the longitudinal beam 10, the greater the width of the side plate 100, and the bottom of the side plate 100 is in contact with the longitudinal beam 10.
[0043] The gradually decreasing width of the side plate 100 can prevent the steering oil tank bracket 1 from being too heavy at the top, which is beneficial to the overall stability of the steering oil tank bracket 1. Such a structure helps to reduce the top weight, reduce structural deformation and displacement at high places, and improve the wind pressure and vibration resistance of the steering oil tank bracket 1. In addition, the width of the bottom of the side plate 100 is relatively wide, which increases the contact area between the side plate 100 and the longitudinal beam 10 and improves the stability of the connection.
[0044] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the side plate portion 100 is configured with a side weight-reducing hole 101 above the longitudinal beam 10 .
[0045] By opening the side weight-reducing holes 101 in the side plate portion 100, the weight of the steering oil tank bracket 1 can be reduced without affecting the overall structural strength and stability. This is particularly important for modern automobile structures that pursue lightweight, because reducing the weight of non-load-bearing components helps to improve the fuel efficiency and dynamic performance of the vehicle. At the same time, the side weight-reducing holes 101 structure can reduce the amount of material used, thereby reducing manufacturing costs, and also help reduce energy consumption and difficulty during transportation and assembly. In addition, the stress concentration phenomenon of the material can also be improved through a reasonable layout of the side weight-reducing holes 101. When subjected to external forces, the side weight-reducing holes 101 help to redistribute the internal stress of the material, avoid excessive stress concentration in a local area, and thus improve the durability and reliability of the entire steering oil tank bracket 1.
[0046] In some specific embodiments of the utility model, the bending angle of the side panel portion 100 and the front mounting plate portion 200 is 90°. First, the 90° bending structure can provide a stable mounting platform for the oil tank 20, ensuring that the oil tank 20 can remain in a good fixed state even when encountering bumpy road conditions during the driving of the vehicle, reducing the shaking of the oil tank 20, thereby avoiding oil leakage or other failures caused by vibration. Secondly, the 90° bending angle can increase the overall rigidity and torsional strength of the steering oil tank bracket 1 to a certain extent, especially when subjected to lateral force or longitudinal force, such a structure helps to disperse the load and prevent the steering oil tank bracket 1 from bending or breaking. Finally, the 90° bending angle can make the steering oil tank bracket 1 more neat and beautiful in appearance, with clear edges and simple lines, which meets the aesthetic standards of industrial equipment and enhances the overall visual effect of the steering oil tank bracket 1.
[0047] In some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the steering oil tank bracket 1 is a steel part with a grade of Q345. Q345 steel parts usually have high strength and hardness, and can increase the load-bearing capacity of the steering oil tank bracket 1 during use, so that it can withstand greater weight and pressure, ensuring that the bracket is stable and reliable during use. At the same time, Q345 steel parts have good plasticity and toughness, and have good shock resistance when facing external shocks and vibrations. Using them in the steering oil tank bracket 1 can enhance the shock resistance of the bracket and improve safety. In addition, Q345 steel parts have good stability and rigidity. Using them in the steering oil tank bracket 1 can promote the stability of the overall structure of the bracket, reduce deformation and deformation, and maintain the stability of the steering oil tank bracket 1 during long-term use.
