[0028] Reference will be made below to Figures 1-3Describe the carbon canister assembly 10 according to an embodiment of the present utility model, including: a carbon canister body 100 and a mounting bracket 200.

[0029] It should be noted that the carbon canister assembly 10 is adapted to include a carbon canister body 100, a mounting bracket 200, and a secondary mounting bracket 300. There are two mounting positions on the mounting bracket 200 and one mounting position on the secondary mounting bracket 300. The above three mounting positions are connected to the carbon canister body 100 so that when the carbon canister body 100 is connected, it is adapted to be fixed through the above three mounting positions to form a triangular fixing structure, making the assembly of the carbon canister assembly 10 more stable and reliable.

[0030] During the connection process between the carbon canister body 100 and the mounting bracket 200, a first limiting portion 111 is provided on the carbon canister body 100. The first limiting portion 111 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the carbon canister body 100; one end of the mounting bracket 200 is provided with a second limiting portion 211. The second limiting portion 211 is provided at the free end of the mounting bracket 200, and the second limiting portion 211 abuts and limits the first limiting portion 111.

[0031] In this way, during the assembly and connection process of the carbon canister body 100 and the mounting bracket 200, it is adapted to make the limiting portion on the carbon canister body 100 abut against the second limiting portion 211 on the mounting bracket, so that the position of the mounting bracket 200 relative to the carbon canister body 100 is in a suitable position for subsequent assembly and connection.

[0032] Specifically, during the connection process between the carbon canister body 100 and the mounting bracket 200, it is adapted to make the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 211 be in limiting cooperation, so that the mounting bracket 200 can not only be more reliably arranged at the corresponding position for connection with the carbon canister body 100, but also can be in a suitable position on the carbon canister body 100 for subsequent assembly, playing a pre-hanging function.

[0033] According to the carbon canister assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present utility model, by providing a mounting bracket 200 on the carbon canister assembly 10, since the first limiting portion 111 is provided on the mounting bracket 200, the first limiting portion 111 is connected to the second limiting portion 211 on the carbon canister body 100, so as to simplify the process during the assembly of the carbon canister assembly 10. At the same time, the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 211 can be in contact and limit each other during the assembly process, so that the mounting bracket 200 can be in a suitable position to realize the assembly connection with the carbon canister body 100, so that the carbon canister assembly 10 can realize the pre-hanging function during the assembly process, thereby making the assembly process of the carbon canister assembly 10 simpler, and the connection and assembly of the carbon canister assembly 10 in the vehicle more reliable. At the same time, after adopting the contact limit, the assembly of the carbon canister body 100 on the mounting bracket 200 can be made more firm, avoiding shaking and generating noise.

[0034] In some embodiments, a connecting flange 120 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the carbon canister body 100. A connecting groove 121 is formed between the connecting flange 120 and the outer peripheral wall of the carbon canister body 100. At least a part of the mounting bracket 200 passes through the connecting groove 121. It should be noted that when the mounting bracket 200 is assembled into the connecting groove 121, it is suitable that the longitudinal width of at least a part of the mounting bracket 200 is the same as or approximately the same as the longitudinal width of the connecting groove 121, so as to limit the relative position between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100 when the mounting bracket 200 is assembled into the connecting groove 121, so that the relative position between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100 is suitable to be limited, so that the carbon canister assembly 10 can be positioned during assembly, facilitating subsequent assembly settings.

[0035] It can be understood that during the assembly process of the carbon canister body 100 and the mounting bracket 200, it is suitable to provide a connecting flange 120 on the carbon canister body 100, so that a connecting groove 121 can be formed between the connecting flange 120 and the outer peripheral surface of the carbon canister body 100. The connecting groove 121 is suitable to provide a position for the assembly connection of the mounting bracket 200, so that the mounting bracket 200 is suitable to be limited in the connecting groove 121 to realize the assembly connection with the carbon canister body 100. At the same time, in some specific embodiments, the width of the mounting bracket 200 passing through the connecting groove 121 should not be too high or too low. If the width is too high, it will significantly increase the production cost and is not conducive to the subsequent assembly of the carbon canister assembly 10. If the width is too low, it will affect the subsequent assembly connection between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100.

[0036] Moreover, a first flanging and a second flanging can be provided on the carbon canister body 100, and the second flanging covers the outside of the first flanging, so as to form a connection groove 121 for connecting the mounting bracket 200 between the first flanging and the second flanging. In order to separate the vibration transmitted to the mounting bracket 200 through the connecting flanging 120, a gap can be provided between the first flanging and the carbon canister body 100.

[0037] In some embodiments, an avoidance groove 220 is provided on the mounting bracket 200, a connecting member 230 is provided on the side wall of the avoidance groove 220, a clamping portion 240 is provided at the free end of the connecting member 230, and a contact surface 122 is provided at the bottom of the connecting flanging 120, and the clamping portion 240 is clamped on the contact surface 122.

[0038] It can be understood that the avoidance groove 220 is suitable for providing space for the construction of the connecting member 230, so that while simplifying the production and construction process of the connecting member 230, it also has high structural strength to meet the use requirements. At the same time, a clamping portion 240 is further provided at the free end of the connecting member 230, and the clamping portion 240 is in contact connection with the contact surface 122 at the bottom of the connecting flanging 120. When the mounting bracket 200 is connected to the carbon canister body 100, a part of the mounting bracket 200 is suitable for passing through the connection groove 121, and then the connecting member 230 extends out from the other side of the connection groove 121, so that the clamping portion 240 at the free end of the connection groove 121 is connected to the bottom of the connecting flanging 120, so that the mounting bracket 200 can be located at a suitable position for subsequent connection with the carbon canister body 100.

[0039] In some embodiments, the clamping portion 240 is a clamping tongue, and an included angle is provided between the extending direction of the clamping tongue and the extending direction of the mounting bracket 200, and the extending direction of the clamping tongue and the extending direction of the contact surface 122 are perpendicular to the same direction. It can be understood that the clamping portion 240 is set as a clamping tongue, so that an included angle can be formed between the clamping tongue and the extending direction of the mounting bracket 200, so that when the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100 are assembled, the clamping tongue can be in contact and clamped on the connecting flanging 120. And the extending direction of the clamping tongue is the same as the extending direction of the contact surface 122, so that the clamping tongue can be clamped on the outside of the contact surface 122 according to the design to achieve limitation, so that the mounting bracket 200 can be assembled to the appropriate position according to the design for subsequent assembly and connection.

[0040] In some embodiments, a third limiting portion 250 is further provided on the connecting member 230. A clamping portion 240 is provided at the free end of the third limiting portion 250. The third limiting portion 250 is correspondingly arranged in the connecting groove 121, and the third limiting portion 250 abuts against and limits the outer peripheral wall of the carbon canister body 100. It can be understood that during the process of connecting the mounting bracket 200 to the connecting groove 121, a third limiting portion 250 is also suitably provided on the connecting member 230. When the mounting bracket 200 is connected to the connecting groove 121, the third limiting portion 250 abuts against and limits the carbon canister body 100, so that the connection between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100 is more compact and reliable, thereby avoiding shaking and noise between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100.

[0041] In some embodiments, the third limiting portion 250 protrudes towards the carbon canister body 100, and / or; the third limiting portion 250 is press-fitted on the outer peripheral wall of the carbon canister body 100, and / or; the cross-sectional shape of the third limiting portion 250 is C-shaped. It can be understood that the third limiting portion 250 is adapted to protrude towards the carbon canister body 100, so that the third limiting portion 250 can be press-fitted on the outer peripheral wall of the carbon canister body 100, so that the relative position between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100 is more fixed, avoiding shaking. At the same time, the cross-sectional shape of the third limiting portion 250 is C-shaped. Since a smooth transition surface is provided on the outside of the third limiting portion 250, the smooth transition surface can guide the assembly process of the third limiting portion 250, so that the third limiting portion 250 can be assembled onto the carbon canister body 100 according to the design, simplifying the assembly process of the third limiting portion 250, and enabling the third limiting portion 250 to be press-fitted against the carbon canister body 100 according to the design, making the connection between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100 more stable and reliable.

[0042] In some embodiments, the extending length of the avoidance groove 220 is A, and the extending length of the connecting member 230 is B. The lengths A and B satisfy the relationship: A - B ≥ 3 mm. It can be understood that by making the length of the avoidance groove 220 greater than the length of the connecting groove 121, since the surplus material needs to be punched out first and then the tongue is processed during sheet metal processing, such a design can ensure that it can be produced by stamping process. And the structural reliability of the mounting bracket 200 is relatively high to meet the use requirements.

[0043] In some embodiments, a first mounting portion 130 is further provided on the carbon canister body 100, and a second mounting portion 260 is further provided on the mounting bracket 200. The first mounting portion 130 and the second mounting portion 260 are detachably connected. It can be understood that mounting portions are respectively provided at both ends of the mounting bracket 200 to improve the stability when the mounting bracket 200 is connected to the carbon canister body 100.

[0044] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 200 is an integrally formed sheet metal stamping part. In this way, by setting the mounting bracket 200 as an integrally formed sheet metal stamping part, it is convenient for production and construction, has high structural strength to meet the use requirements, saves the production steps of the mounting bracket 200, simplifies the production process of the mounting bracket 200, and improves the connection strength between the mounting bracket 200 and the carbon canister body 100, increasing the setting reliability of the carbon canister assembly 10.

In this way, since the carbon canister assembly 10 as shown above is provided in the vehicle, and the mounting bracket 200 is provided on the carbon canister assembly 10. Since the first limiting portion 111 is provided on the mounting bracket 200 to connect the first limiting portion 111 with the second limiting portion 211 on the carbon canister body 100, the process during the assembly of the carbon canister assembly 10 is simplified. At the same time, the first limiting portion 111 and the second limiting portion 211 can be in contact and limited during the assembly process, so that the mounting bracket 200 can be in a proper position to realize the assembly connection with the carbon canister body 100, enabling the carbon canister assembly 10 to realize the pre-hanging function during the assembly process, thus making the assembly process of the carbon canister assembly 10 simpler and the connection and assembly of the carbon canister assembly 10 in the vehicle more reliable.
