[0031] The following refers to Figures 1 - 4 Describe the torsion beam assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model. It can reduce the bounce correlation of the left and right wheels while ensuring the structural strength of the torsion beam 1, extend the service life of the torsion beam 1, improve the NVH performance of the vehicle, thereby improving the user's riding comfort, and can also improve the lightweight design of the vehicle.

[0032] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, the torsion beam assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a torsion beam 1.

[0033] Longitudinal arms 2 are provided at the ends of the torsion beam 1. An installation bracket 7 connected to the vehicle body is provided at the front end of the longitudinal arm 2, and a first connection bracket 4 and an installation structure are provided at the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2. The first connection bracket 4 is used to connect to the wheel, and the installation structure is used to install a damping structure. Among them, the torsion beam 1 is provided with a weakened opening 11, and the opening width of the weakened opening 11 is configured to gradually decrease from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends.

[0034] Among them, the torsion beam assembly 100 has the advantages of simple manufacturing, light weight, and low cost. The vehicle wheels can be respectively installed at both ends of the torsion beam 1. When one wheel bounces up and down, it drives the other wheel to bounce correspondingly, thereby reducing the tilt or sway of the entire vehicle body. Moreover, due to its own certain torsional stiffness, it can play the same role as a lateral stabilizer bar, thereby increasing the roll stiffness of the vehicle and improving the roll stability of the vehicle.

[0035] Specifically, the torsion beam assembly 100 is provided with a torsion beam 1. The torsion beam 1 can be set as a tubular structure, and its cross-section can be set as a rectangle, an ellipse, a circle, etc. Both ends of the torsion beam 1 can be respectively connected with longitudinal arms 2 by means of welding or the like, and the end of the torsion beam 1 is connected to the middle position of the longitudinal arm 2. The torsion beam 1 extends along the transverse direction of the vehicle, that is, the torsion beam 1 extends along the left-right direction of the vehicle, and the two longitudinal arms 2 can extend along the front-back direction of the vehicle. An installation bracket 7 is provided at the front end of the longitudinal arm 2. The installation bracket 7 can be connected to the front end of the longitudinal arm 2 by means of a connecting piece or the like, and the installation bracket 7 can be connected to the vehicle body by means of a connecting piece or the like. The connecting piece can be set as a bolt or the like, so that the torsion beam assembly 100 can be connected to the vehicle body.

[0036] Furthermore, a first connecting bracket 4 and an installation structure are also provided at the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2. The first connecting bracket 4 is connected to the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2 by means of welding or the like, and the first connecting bracket 4 can be connected to the vehicle wheel by means of a connecting piece or the like. The connecting piece can be set as a bolt or the like, so that the wheel can be fixedly connected to the torsion beam assembly 100, thereby increasing the roll stiffness of the vehicle and improving the roll stability of the vehicle. Moreover, the installation structure can also be connected to the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2 by means of welding or the like. The installation structure can be used to install a damping structure, and the damping structure is connected to the vehicle body, thereby improving the NVH performance of the vehicle and improving the user's comfort.

[0037] Among them, the torsion beam 1 is also provided with a weakening opening 11. The weakening opening 11 can be cut by laser or the like, or the sheet material can be cut before stamping. The opening width of the weakening opening 11 is configured to gradually decrease from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends, that is, the weakening opening 11 can be set as an elliptical opening or a rhombus opening, etc. In this embodiment, the weakening opening 11 is set as an elliptical opening. The setting of the weakening opening 11 in the torsion beam 1 enables the torsion beam 1 to undergo a certain amount of torsional deformation when stressed at both ends, thereby weakening the correlation of the left and right wheel bounces, improving the NVH performance of the vehicle, and improving the user's riding comfort. Moreover, the opening width of the weakening opening 11 gradually decreases from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends, which can ensure the structural strength on both sides of the torsion beam 1, prevent the torsion beam 1 from bending, deforming, etc., extend the service life of the torsion beam 1, and the setting of the weakening opening 11 can reduce the weight of the torsion beam 1, thereby improving the lightweight design of the vehicle.

[0038] According to the torsion beam assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model, by providing a weakened opening 11 on the torsion beam 1 with an opening width gradually decreasing from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends, the correlation of the bouncing of the left and right wheels can be reduced while ensuring the structural strength of the torsion beam 1. Furthermore, the service life of the torsion beam 1 can be extended, the NVH performance of the vehicle can be improved, so as to enhance the riding comfort of the user. Moreover, by providing the weakened opening 11, the weight of the torsion beam 1 can be reduced, and thus the lightweight design of the vehicle can be improved, with better use effects and a wider application range.

[0039] In some embodiments, the weakened opening 11 is configured to be open towards the rear.

[0040] Specifically, the torsion beam assembly 100 is provided with a torsion beam 1 extending in the transverse direction, and the torsion beam 1 is provided with a weakened opening 11. The opening width of the weakened opening 11 is configured to gradually decrease from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends, so that when the two ends of the torsion beam 1 are stressed, certain torsional deformation can occur, thereby weakening the correlation of the bouncing of the left and right wheels and improving the NVH performance of the vehicle to enhance the riding comfort of the user.

[0041] Furthermore, the weakened opening 11 is configured to be open towards the rear. Longitudinal arms 2 are provided at both ends of the torsion beam 1. The longitudinal arms 2 extend in the front-rear direction. A first connecting bracket 4 is connected to the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2, and the first connecting bracket 4 is used to connect to the wheel, that is, the wheel is located behind the torsion beam 1. By setting the weakened opening 11 to be open towards the rear, that is, setting the weakened opening 11 to be open towards the position of the wheel relative to the torsion beam 1, when the vehicle travels on a bumpy road section, the force received by a single-side wheel can be reduced from being transmitted to the other side wheel, thereby weakening the correlation of the bouncing of the left and right wheels and improving the NVH performance of the vehicle and the riding comfort of the user.

[0042] At the same time, by configuring the weakened opening 11 to be open towards the rear, it can be avoided that stones and other sundries splashed by the road surface during vehicle driving enter the torsion beam 1 through the weakened opening 11, so as to increase the weight of the torsion beam 1, reduce the energy consumption of the vehicle, improve the lightweight of the vehicle, and in the case of liquid accumulation on the road surface, it can be avoided that the liquid enters the torsion beam 1 through the weakened opening 11, so as to cause corrosion and other conditions to the inner wall of the torsion beam 1 and extend the service life of the torsion beam 1.

[0043] In some embodiments, the projection of the weakened opening 11 in the vertical direction is an arc line, and the center of curvature of the arc line is located at the rear side of the torsion beam 1. The torsion beam assembly 100 is provided with a torsion beam 1, and the torsion beam 1 extends in the left-right direction of the vehicle, and as Figure 1As shown, the torsion beam 1 is provided with a weakened opening 11. The opening width of the weakened opening 11 is configured to gradually decrease from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends, and the projection of the weakened opening 11 in the vertical direction is an arc line, such that the middle part of the torsion beam 1 has a lower torsional stiffness, which can ensure that the left and right wheels do not interfere with each other when bouncing, improve the riding comfort, and can avoid stress concentration at the edge of the weakened opening 11, etc., to ensure the reliability of the torsion beam 1. And the center of curvature of the arc line is located at the rear side of the torsion beam 1, that is, the weakened opening 11 can open towards the rear, and the wheels are located behind the torsion beam 1. Furthermore, the correlation of the left and right wheel bounces can be weakened, and the NVH performance of the vehicle and the riding comfort of the user can be improved.

[0044] In some embodiments, the width of the weakened opening 11 in the longitudinal direction is less than or equal to half of the width of the torsion beam 1 in the longitudinal direction. For example, Figure 1 As shown, the torsion beam 1 is provided with a weakened opening 11. The opening width of the weakened opening 11 is configured to gradually decrease from the middle of the torsion beam 1 towards both ends, and the width of the weakened opening 11 in the longitudinal direction is less than or equal to half of the width of the torsion beam 1 in the longitudinal direction, that is, the width of the weakened opening 11 in the longitudinal direction can be set to be less than half of the width of the torsion beam 1 in the longitudinal direction, or can be set to be equal to half of the width of the torsion beam 1 in the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, the structural strength of the torsion beam 1 can be ensured, and at the same time, the middle part of the torsion beam 1 can have a lower torsional stiffness to ensure that the left and right wheels do not interfere with each other when bouncing and improve the riding comfort.

[0045] In some embodiments, the torsion beam 1 is configured as a circular tube beam, and the opening width of the weakened opening 11 is less than or equal to the diameter of the torsion beam 1.

[0046] Specifically, the torsion beam assembly 100 is provided with a torsion beam 1. The torsion beam 1 extends along the left - right direction of the vehicle, and the torsion beam 1 is set as a tubular structure. In this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the torsion beam 1 is configured as a circular tube beam. Setting the torsion beam 1 as a circular tube beam can avoid stress concentration on the torsion beam 1, etc., to ensure the reliability of the torsion beam 1. And the torsion beam 1 is provided with a weakened opening 11, and the opening width of the weakened opening 11 is less than or equal to the diameter of the torsion beam 1, that is, the opening width of the weakened opening 11 can be set to be equal to the diameter of the torsion beam 1, or can be set to be less than the diameter of the torsion beam 1. Furthermore, the structural strength of the torsion beam 1 can be ensured, and at the same time, the middle part of the torsion beam 1 can have a lower torsional stiffness to ensure that the left and right wheels do not interfere with each other when bouncing and improve the riding comfort.

[0047] In some embodiments, the length of the weakened opening 11 is less than the total length of the torsion beam 1; and / or, the weakened opening 11 is symmetrically arranged with respect to the middle of the torsion beam 1.

[0048] Specifically, the torsion beam 1 is provided with a weakened opening 11, and the length of the weakened opening 11 is less than the total length of the torsion beam 1. That is, the torsional stiffness at the middle position of the torsion beam 1 is relatively small, and the lateral stiffness at both ends is relatively large. As a result, both ends of the torsion beam 1 can withstand relatively large lateral forces from the wheels, thereby improving the lateral stiffness of the entire torsion beam assembly 100 and enhancing the handling performance. The middle part of the torsion beam 1 has a relatively low torsional stiffness, which can ensure that the left and right wheels do not interfere with each other when they bounce, thus enhancing the riding comfort.

[0049] Furthermore, the weakened opening 11 can be set as an ellipse or a rhombus, etc., and the weakened opening 11 is symmetrically arranged relative to the middle part of the torsion beam 1. That is, the weakened opening 11 can be symmetrically arranged vertically and can also be symmetrically arranged horizontally, so that the stiffness of the structures at both ends of the torsion beam 1 is the same, and the lateral forces that the wheels can withstand are also the same, avoiding situations such as deformation and fracture due to excessive force on one side of the torsion beam 1, prolonging the service life of the torsion beam 1, and improving the use safety.

[0050] In some embodiments, a bushing 3 is provided at the front end of the trailing arm 2, and the mounting bracket 7 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the trailing arm 2 through the bushing 3. The mounting bracket 7 is provided with at least one mounting point 72 for connecting to the vehicle body.

[0051] Specifically, both ends of the torsion beam 1 are connected to trailing arms 2 extending in the front-rear direction, and a bushing 3 is provided at the front end of the trailing arm 2. An installation notch is formed at the front end of the trailing arm 2, and the installation notch matches the bushing 3. The bushing 3 can be partially located in the installation notch and can be connected to the installation notch by welding or other means, thereby ensuring the reliability of the connection between the bushing 3 and the trailing arm 2. And the mounting bracket 7 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the trailing arm 2 through the bushing 3, and the mounting bracket 7 is connected to the vehicle body, so that the height of the bushing 3 relative to the mounting bracket 7 and the roll center height of the torsion beam assembly 100 can be changed.

[0052] Furthermore, the mounting bracket 7 is provided with two spaced and oppositely distributed connecting plates 71. The connecting plates 71 are formed with first connection holes 711, and the bushing 3 is formed with second connection holes 32. The bushing 3 can extend between the two connecting plates 71, and a connecting member can be sequentially passed through the first connection hole 711 and the second connection hole 32. The connecting member can be set as a bolt or the like, so that the mounting bracket 7 can be movably connected to the bushing 3. And the bushing 3 is provided with a damping layer, and damping holes 31 are arranged in the damping layer. As Figure 2 shown, a plurality of damping holes 31 are provided, and the plurality of damping holes 31 are spaced apart circumferentially. And the damping holes 31 are set as "V"-shaped holes, which are open radially outward, that is, open radially toward the driving direction of the vehicle, so as to reduce the vibration transmitted from the trailing arm 2 to the mounting bracket 7, improve the vehicle NVH performance, and enhance the riding comfort.

[0053] In addition, the mounting bracket 7 is provided with at least one mounting point 72, and the vehicle body may be provided with a mounting matching point. The connecting parts may be sequentially inserted into the mounting point 72 and the mounting matching point to connect the mounting bracket 7 to the vehicle body. The connection is convenient and an assembly robot may be used for assembly to improve production efficiency. The connecting parts may be bolts, etc., and the mounting matching points may be nuts pre-embedded in the vehicle body, etc., and three mounting points 72 may be provided. The three mounting points 72 are spaced apart and the connecting lines therebetween form a triangle, thereby improving connection reliability. At the same time, the mounting bracket 7 is provided with a weight-reducing hole 73, which may improve the lightweight design of the vehicle. The mounting bracket 7 has a simple structure and may reduce the installation cost.

[0054] In some embodiments, the longitudinal arm 2 includes a first sub-plate 21 and a second sub-plate 22 . The first sub-plate 21 and the second sub-plate 22 are spliced ​​and connected and jointly define a penetration portion 23 . The penetration portion 23 is used to penetrate the end of the torsion beam 1 .

[0055] Specifically, both ends of the torsion beam 1 are connected to longitudinal arms 2 extending in the front-rear direction, and Figures 2 - 3 As shown, the longitudinal arm 2 is provided with a first sub-plate 21 and a second sub-plate 22, both of which extend in the front-rear direction, and the first sub-plate 21 is located above the second sub-plate 22, and the first sub-plate 21 and the second sub-plate 22 can be connected by welding and splicing, which can improve the rigidity and strength of the longitudinal arm 2, and is not easy to deform when the vehicle is subjected to a large impact, thereby improving the quality of the entire vehicle.

[0056] Furthermore, the first sub-plate 21 and the second sub-plate 22 can jointly define a penetration portion 23, and the end of the torsion beam 1 can be penetrated in the penetration portion 23. The penetration portion 23 can be set as a circular hole or a rectangular hole, and the end of the torsion beam 1 can be correspondingly set as a circular beam or a rectangular beam, etc. After the end of the torsion beam 1 is penetrated in the penetration portion 23, the torsion beam 1 is connected to the longitudinal arm 2 by welding or the like, which can increase the contact area of ​​the connection, thereby improving the connection reliability and ensuring the safety of the vehicle. At the same time, the first sub-plate 21 is formed with an installation groove 24 to install the installation structure, so that the installation structure has two layers of plates, which can improve the strength and rigidity and ensure reliability.

[0057] In some embodiments, the mounting structure includes a mounting portion 6 and a second connecting bracket 5 , the mounting portion 6 is used to mount the coil spring, the second connecting bracket 5 is suitable for connecting to the shock absorber, and the first connecting bracket 4 is located outside the mounting portion 6 .

[0058] Specifically, the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2 is provided with a mounting structure, and the mounting structure is provided with a mounting portion 6 and a second connecting bracket 5. The rear end of the longitudinal arm 2 is formed with a mounting groove 24, and the mounting portion 6 can be connected to the mounting groove 24 by welding or the like. The mounting portion 6 can be set as a limiting column or a limiting protrusion, etc. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 1As shown, the installation part 6 is set as a limit post, and the limit post is configured as a cylindrical tubular structure. The helical spring can be limited and clamped to the limit post, and the second installation bracket 7 can be connected to the rear end of the longitudinal arm 2 by means such as welding.
