[0027] Currently, most vehicle sonars are directly installed on the decorative panel. For some decorative panels with complex shapes, it is difficult for the decorative panel to meet the stable installation requirements of the sonar. In addition, when the vehicle collides and the decorative panel deforms, the decorative panel is likely to collide with the sonar and cause the sonar to fall off.

[0028] The present utility model provides an installation structure for a vehicle sonar, which includes an installation plate 10 and a sonar housing 20. One side of the installation plate 10 is used to connect the decorative panel of the vehicle. An installation sleeve 11 with both ends open is provided on the installation plate 10, and the installation sleeve 11 extends from the installation plate 10 towards the decorative panel. A connection card hole 13 is opened at a position on the installation plate 10 close to the installation sleeve 11; a receiving cylinder 21 for receiving the probe of the sonar is provided on the sonar housing 20, the receiving cylinder 21 is sleeved in the installation sleeve 11, at least one side wall of the sonar housing 20 forms an installation wall 22, and a connection claw 23 is provided on the installation wall 22, and the connection claw 23 is in snap-fit connection with the connection card hole 13.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1When the sonar is installed on the side of the decorative plate facing the inside of the vehicle, the left side of the mounting plate 10 is connected to the decorative plate, and the sonar shell 20 is clamped on the right side of the mounting plate 10, so that the sonar is accommodated in the sonar shell 20, so that the sonar is installed on the side of the decorative plate of the vehicle facing the inside of the vehicle through the mounting structure. The sonar shell 20 is connected to the connecting clamp hole 13 on the mounting plate 10 through the connecting claw 23, so that the sonar shell 20 and the mounting plate 10 are detachably connected. The shape of the mounting plate 10 matches the shape of the decorative plate, so that the edge of the mounting plate 10 is tightly connected to the decorative plate, and there is a gap between the position of the mounting sleeve 11 on the mounting plate 10 and the decorative plate. When the decorative plate collides and sinks inward, the decorative plate does not directly squeeze the sonar shell 20, so as to avoid the collision of the decorative plate and the separation of the sonar shell 20. The sonar probe is located in the accommodating tube 21, so that when the accommodating tube 21 is sleeved in the mounting sleeve 11, the sonar probe can transmit sound waves through the mounting sleeve 11 toward the opening on one side of the decorative panel. At the same time, a transmitting window is provided on the decorative panel at a position corresponding to the opening to facilitate the probe to transmit sound waves, so that the setting of the mounting plate 10 does not interfere with the function of the sonar.

[0030] The vehicle sonar installation structure proposed by the utility model is to connect the installation plate 10 to the decorative plate of the vehicle, so that the sonar is accommodated in the sonar shell 20. The sonar shell 20 is connected to the installation plate 10 by the clamping cooperation between the connecting claw 23 and the connecting clamping hole 13, and then the sonar shell 20 is installed on the side of the decorative plate facing the inside of the vehicle, so that the sonar and the decorative plate are firmly installed, and the loading and unloading are convenient. There is a gap between the position of the installation sleeve 11 on the installation plate 10 and the decorative plate. When the decorative plate collides and sinks inward, the decorative plate does not directly squeeze the sonar shell 20, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of the sonar and the sonar shell 20 being separated from the vehicle due to the collision of the decorative plate.

[0031] In one embodiment, a clamping plate 12 is provided near the mounting sleeve 11 of the mounting plate 10 , and the clamping plate 12 extends away from the decorative plate. The connecting clamping hole 13 is provided on the clamping plate 12 , and the connecting clamping claw 23 is an elastic clamping claw.

[0032] See also Figure 3 The clamping plate 12 is arranged on the side of the mounting plate 10 away from the decorative plate and extends in the direction away from the decorative plate, so that the clamping position of the connecting claw 23 and the connecting clamping hole 13 is as far away from the decorative plate as possible to prevent the decorative plate from colliding and causing the sonar and the sonar shell 20 to separate. When the sonar shell 20 extends into the mounting sleeve 11 in the direction close to the decorative plate, the connecting claw 23 on the sonar shell 20 is squeezed by the clamping plate 12 and elastically deformed until the sonar shell 20 is completely sleeved in the mounting sleeve 11, and the connecting claw 23 extends into the connecting clamping hole 13 and recovers under the action of elastic force, so that the connecting claw 23 is clamped and matched with the connecting clamping hole 13, the connection is firm, and the assembly and disassembly are convenient.

[0033] In one embodiment, the connecting claw 23 extends in a direction away from the mounting wall 22, and the connecting claw 23 includes a guide surface inclined to the mounting wall 22 and a limiting surface perpendicular to the mounting wall 22, and the limiting surface is used to abut against the hole wall of the connecting card hole 13; the accommodating tube 21 extends in a direction close to the decorative plate and is sleeved in the mounting sleeve 11, and the guide surface is used to slide with the end of the clamping plate 12 away from the decorative plate when the accommodating tube 21 extends into the mounting sleeve 11.

[0034] Furthermore, when installing the sonar on the vehicle, the mounting plate 10 is first connected to the decorative plate, and then the sonar shell 20 is extended into the mounting sleeve 11 in the direction close to the decorative plate, so that the guide surface of the connecting claw 23 and the clamping plate 12 are slidably matched, so that the connecting claw 23 is aligned with the connecting clamping hole 13, so as to guide the accommodating tube 21 to smoothly extend into the mounting sleeve 11. The sliding match between the guide surface of the connecting claw 23 and the clamping plate 12 not only helps to reduce the resistance when the sonar shell 20 is installed, but also ensures the smooth movement of the sonar shell 20 during the installation process, avoiding damage caused by improper installation. After the connecting claw 23 is fully extended into the connecting clamping hole 13, the limiting surface abuts against the hole wall of the connecting clamping hole 13, thereby limiting the connecting claw 23 in the connecting clamping hole 13, so that the sonar shell 20 is stably installed on the mounting plate 10.

[0035] In one embodiment, a guide groove 14 is formed on the inner wall of the mounting sleeve 11, and a guide strip 24 slidably matched with the guide groove 14 is formed on the outer wall of the accommodating tube 21, and both the guide groove 14 and the guide strip 24 extend in a direction close to the decorative panel.

[0036] See also Figure 4 The accommodating tube 21 is docked with the mounting sleeve 11 in the direction close to the decorative plate, and the guide strips 24 and 24 extend along the docking direction of the accommodating tube 21 and the mounting sleeve 11, so that when the accommodating tube 21 is extended into the mounting sleeve 11, the guide strips 24 are extended into the guide groove 14, thereby preventing the accommodating tube 21 from rotating relative to the mounting sleeve 11, thereby ensuring the precise installation of the sonar shell 20 and the mounting plate 10.

[0037] In one embodiment, there are two clamping plates 12, which are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the mounting sleeve 11. The shell walls on opposite sides of the sonar shell 20 respectively form two mounting walls 22, and the two connecting claws 23 on the two mounting walls 22 are respectively clamped and matched with the two connecting holes 13 on the two clamping plates 12.

[0038] See also Figure 3, two clamping plates 12 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the mounting sleeve 11. When the two connecting claws 23 are respectively clamped and matched with the two connecting holes 13, the two clamping plates 12 apply relative fixing forces to the upper and lower sides of the sonar housing 20, ensuring that the sonar housing 20 is stably mounted on the mounting plate 10. When it is necessary to disassemble the sonar housing 20 for maintenance or replacement, it is necessary to simultaneously squeeze the two connecting claws 23 on both sides, so that the two connecting claws 23 disengage from the corresponding connecting holes 13, thereby avoiding the situation where the sonar housing 20 falls off due to the unilateral connecting claw 23 being squeezed.

[0039] In one embodiment, welding holes 15 are formed in the mounting plate 10, and inserts corresponding to the positions of the welding holes 15 are provided on the decorative plate. The inserts can be inserted into and welded with the welding holes 15.

[0040] It should be noted that the inserts extend in a direction away from the decorative plate and extend into the welding holes 15 to provide support for the mounting plate 10 through the inserts. The number of welding holes 15 is multiple, and the multiple welding holes 15 are respectively located at the edges of the mounting plate 10. The multiple welding holes 15 are respectively inserted and matched with the multiple inserts on the decorative plate, so that the mounting plate 10 remains fixed relative to the decorative plate. After each insert is inserted and matched with the corresponding welding hole 15, the mounting plate 10 is firmly connected to the decorative plate by welding each insert to the mounting plate 10, improving the connection stability between the mounting plate 10 and the decorative plate, and ensuring that the sonar housing 20 is firmly connected to the side of the decorative plate facing the inside of the vehicle.

[0041] In one embodiment, the welding holes 15 are strip-shaped, and positioning strips 16 are provided at positions of the mounting plate 10 close to the welding holes 15. The positioning strips 16 form a positioning gap for the inserts to extend into and be positioned and matched with the inserts, and the positioning gap communicates with the welding holes 15.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 2 , the positioning strips 16 are provided on the side of the mounting plate 10 facing the decorative plate. When the inserts are inserted and matched with the welding holes 15, the inserts extend into the positioning gap and the welding holes 15 in sequence, so as to provide positioning for the inserts through the positioning strips 16, facilitating quick installation. In one embodiment, the welding holes 15 are horizontally arranged, the positioning strips 16 are vertically arranged, and a positioning gap is formed at the position where the middle part of the positioning strips 16 intersects with the welding holes 15. When the inserts are inserted into the welding holes 15, the two parts of the positioning strips 16 respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the positioning gap abut against the inserts, ensuring a firm connection between the inserts and the welding holes 15.

[0043] In one embodiment, the thickness of the inserts is 1.2 mm to 1.4 mm, and the thickness of the mounting plate 10 is 2.4 mm to 2.8 mm.

[0044] It should be noted that the insert needs to bear the gravity of the mounting plate 10. After the insert is inserted and mated with the mounting plate 10, welding is performed. The thickness of the insert is set to 1.2 mm to 1.4 mm to ensure that the insert has sufficient bearing strength to support the mounting plate 10 and is not too thick to cause welding difficulties. The thickness of the mounting plate 10 is set to 2.4 mm to 2.8 mm to ensure that the mounting plate 10 has sufficient bearing strength to support the sonar housing 20.

[0045] In one embodiment, reinforcing ribs 17 are provided on the mounting plate 10, and the reinforcing ribs 17 are arranged around the mounting sleeve 11.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 , the reinforcing ribs 17 protrude away from the mounting plate 10, and the reinforcing ribs 17 surround the mounting sleeve 11. The reinforcing ribs 17 can increase the thickness of the mounting plate 10, thereby improving the structural strength and stiffness of the mounting plate 10, ensuring that when the receiving cylinder 21 is sleeved on the mounting sleeve 11, the mounting sleeve 11 can provide stable support for the receiving cylinder 21, thereby increasing the mounting stability of the sonar housing 20.

[0047] The present utility model also proposes a vehicle, which includes a sonar and a mounting structure. The specific structure of the mounting structure refers to the above embodiments. Since this vehicle adopts all the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, and will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0048] By arranging the mounting structure to be connected to the side of the decorative plate facing the inside of the vehicle, the sonar is firmly mounted on the decorative plate. Through the snap-fit of the mounting plate 10 and the sonar housing 20, the detachable connection between the sonar and the mounting plate 10 is realized, and the loading and unloading are convenient. And when the decorative plate collides, the decorative plate does not directly exert extrusion on the sonar housing 20, thereby effectively avoiding the problem that the sonar and the sonar housing 20 are separated from the vehicle due to the collision of the decorative plate.

[0049] The above are only exemplary embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the technical concept of the present utility model by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
