[0028] Referring to Figure 1-2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an automotive rear crossmember bottom plate structure, which includes two connecting plates 1 and a bottom plate 2. The two connecting plates 1 are parallel to each other, and the two connecting plates 1 are parallel to each other and are spaced apart in a first direction perpendicular to their planes. The bottom plate 2 is perpendicular to the connecting plate 1, and the bottom plate 2 and the connecting plate 1 are spaced apart in a second direction perpendicular to the plane of the bottom plate 2.

[0029] Specifically, the two connecting plates 1 are used to be connected to both sides of the rear crossmember in the vehicle body length direction. Correspondingly, holes for bolts to pass through are provided on the connecting plates 1, and the connecting plates 1 are fixed to the rear crossmember by bolts. The two connecting plates 1 and the bottom plate 2 both extend along the crossmember length direction. During installation, the connecting plates 1 are connected to both sides of the rear crossmember, and the bottom plate 2 is connected to the connecting plates 1 through a connecting component, so that when the connecting plates 1 are connected to the rear crossmember, the bottom plate 2 is located at the bottom of the rear crossmember and covers the rear crossmember. At this time, the bottom plate 2 can protect the rear crossmember.

[0030] Referring to Figure 1-2 As shown, wherein the connecting structure 3 includes a support member, an elastic member and a connecting member. The support member is connected to the connecting plate 1, the connecting member connects the support member and the bottom plate 2, and enables the bottom plate 2 to move relative to the connecting plate 1 in the second direction. The elastic member is disposed between the support member and the bottom plate 2, and the bottom plate 2 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member when moving close to the connecting plate 1 in the second direction. Specifically, when the connecting plate 1 is connected to the rear crossmember, a gap is maintained between the bottom plate 2 and the rear crossmember, so that the bottom plate 2 can move relative to the rear crossmember. When the bottom plate 2 is impacted and moves close to the rear crossmember, the elastic member absorbs the impact energy, thereby playing a buffering role, weakening the impact force transmitted to the rear crossmember, reducing the impact force received by the rear crossmember, improving the protection effect on the rear crossmember, and thus ensuring the protection function of the bottom plate 2 for the rear crossmember.

[0031] Referring to Figure 1-2As shown, the support member is connected to the side of the connecting plate 1 away from the other connecting plate 1, so that the connecting plate 1 can be closely attached to the rear crossbeam to improve the connection strength. The support member can be a support block 31 or a support plate parallel to the bottom plate 2. In this embodiment, the support block 31 is used for illustration. The connecting member includes a connecting rod 33, whose axis is parallel to the second direction. The connecting rod 33 passes through the bottom plate 2 and the support member and can move axially relative to the bottom plate 2 and the support member. Both ends of the connecting rod 33 are respectively connected with limiting members. The bottom plate 2 and the support member are located between the two limiting members, and the limiting members prevent the connecting rod 33 from detaching from the bottom plate 2 and the support member. Specifically, the connecting rod 33 can be a screw rod, and the limiting members include nuts 34 threadedly assembled on the connecting rod 33. Correspondingly, holes for the connecting rod 33 to pass through are provided on both the support member and the bottom plate 2. The connecting rod 33 plays a role in connecting the bottom plate 2 and the connecting plate 1. At the same time, the connecting rod 33 also guides the bottom plate 2 to improve the stability of the installation of the bottom plate 2, and the connecting rod 33 being a screw rod is convenient for assembly.

[0032] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the bottom plate 2 and each connecting plate 1 can be connected by a plurality of connecting components. Correspondingly, the plurality of connecting components between each connecting rod 33 and the bottom plate 2 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the bottom plate 2, that is, the length direction of the rear crossbeam, so as to improve the connection strength and stability between the bottom plate 2 and the connecting plate 1.

[0033] Refer to Figure 1-2 As shown, the elastic member can be a compression spring 32. The compression spring 32 is coaxially sleeved outside the connecting rod 33, and both ends of the compression spring 32 are respectively abutted against the support member and the bottom plate 2. During installation, the distance between the two nuts 34 on the connecting rod 33 is adjusted so that the bottom plate 2 and the support member are in contact with the compression spring 32, and the compression spring 32 is kept in an elastically deformed state, so that the compression spring 32 can quickly absorb the impact force when the bottom plate 2 moves.

[0034] Refer to Figure 1-2 As shown, to prevent sundries from affecting the normal deformation of the compression spring 32, side plates 4 parallel to the connecting plate 1 are respectively connected to both sides of the bottom plate 2 in the first direction. The connecting components are located between the side plates 4 and the connecting plate 1 in the first direction. Specifically, the two connecting plates 1 are located between the two side plates 4 in the first direction. In this way, the side plates 4 can block the sundries under the vehicle bottom, preventing the compression spring 32 from being stuck by sundries and affecting its normal deformation ability, so that the compression spring 32 plays a good buffering role. In this embodiment, the bottom plate 2 and the side plates 4 are integrally formed, and the side plates 4 are formed by bending the bottom plate 2.

[0035] Refer to Figure 1-2As shown, a baffle 5 parallel to the bottom plate 2 is connected to the connecting plate 1. The baffle 5 is located on the side where the two connecting plates 1 are away from each other, and the connecting component is located between the baffle 5 and the bottom plate 2. The baffle 5 and the side plate 4 are spaced apart in the second direction, so that the bottom plate 2 can move relative to the connecting plate 1 in the second direction. The side of the baffle 5 away from the connecting plate 1 is bent towards the bottom plate 2 to form a surrounding plate 6 parallel to the connecting plate 1. The two connecting plates 1 are located between the two surrounding plates 6 in the first direction, and the projections of the surrounding plate 6 and the side plate 4 on the connecting plate 1 intersect. In this way, the cooperation of the baffle 5, the surrounding plate 6 and the side plate 4 can further prevent sundries from entering the inside of the bottom plate 2, avoid the compression spring 32 from being stuck by sundries, and ensure the protective effect of the bottom plate 2 on the rear crossbeam.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1-2 As shown, to further improve the ability of the bottom plate 2 structure to absorb impact force, an elastic buffer block 7 is provided on the side of the bottom plate 2 close to the connecting plate 1. The elastic buffer block 7 is located between the two connecting plates 1 in the first direction. Specifically, the elastic buffer block 7 can be made of a rubber block, and multiple of them are arranged at intervals on the plane of the bottom plate 2. When the bottom plate 2 is impacted and moves closer to the rear crossbeam, while the impact energy is absorbed by the deformation of the compression spring 32, when the bottom plate 2 moves to contact the elastic buffer block 7 and the rear crossbeam, the impact force can be further absorbed through the elastic deformation of the elastic buffer block 7, and the impact force transmitted to the rear crossbeam can be further reduced, better protecting the rear crossbeam.

[0037] A plurality of water leakage holes are provided on the bottom plate 2, and the water entering between the bottom plate 2 and the rear crossbeam can leak out through the water leakage holes, preventing water accumulation and at the same time reducing the weight of the bottom plate 2.

[0038] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
