[0034] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the drawings are exemplary. Below, reference is made to Figure 1 Describe the connecting member 100 for the steering pump 202 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present utility model. The steering pump 202, such as an emergency steering pump, can be mounted on the longitudinal beam 2011 of the vehicle 200 through the connecting member 100. In the following description of the present application, the connecting member 100 is taken as an example for the vehicle 200, but it is not limited thereto.
[0035] As Figure 1 shown, the connecting member 100 for the steering pump 202 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present utility model includes a mounting portion 1 and a fixing portion 2.
[0036] Specifically, the mounting portion 1 is adapted to be connected to the steering pump 202. The fixing portion 2 is connected to the side of the mounting portion 1 away from the steering pump 202. A plurality of fixing holes 21 are formed on the fixing portion 2. The fixing portion 2 is adapted to be connected to the longitudinal beam 2011 of the vehicle 200 through the plurality of fixing holes 21. The plurality of fixing holes 21 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the fixing portion 2. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.
[0037] For example, in Figure 1 and Figure 2In the example, when the connecting member 100 is connected to the steering pump 202, the steering pump 202 is located on the upper side of the mounting portion 1, the fixing portion 2 is located on the lower side of the mounting portion 1, and the lower side surface of the mounting portion 1 is connected to the fixing portion 2. The fixing holes 21 penetrate through the fixing portion 2 along the thickness direction of the fixing portion 2 (such as Figure 1 the left-right direction shown), and the connecting member 100 is connected to the longitudinal beam 2011 of the vehicle frame 201 of the vehicle 200 through a plurality of fixing holes 21 (for example, a plurality of fasteners are inserted and fitted in the plurality of fixing holes 21 so that the fixing portion 2 of the connecting member 100 is connected to the longitudinal beam 2011, and the fasteners can be bolts). The steering pump 202 after being connected to the connecting member 100 is as shown in Figure 2 above the longitudinal beam 2011.
[0038] With such a setting, through the setting of the plurality of fixing holes 21, when the connecting member 100 is used for the vehicle 200, the connecting member 100 can be connected to the longitudinal beam 2011 through the fixing holes 21, thereby improving the installation convenience of the connecting member 100, and further improving the installation convenience of the steering pump 202 through the connecting member 100. In addition, the plurality of fixing holes 21 are arranged circumferentially, so that the connecting member 100 can be connected to the longitudinal beam 2011 from different positions, strengthening the connection strength between the connecting member 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011, thereby improving the connection stability between the connecting member 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011, and also improving the installation stability of the steering pump 202. In addition, the structure of the connecting member 100 is simple and the volume is small. When the connecting member 100 is installed on the longitudinal beam 2011, the occupied space is small, so that the steering pump 202 can be installed on the longitudinal beam 2011, raising the height of the steering pump 202 after installation. When the vehicle 200 passes through an uneven road surface, the steering pump 202 is not easily bottomed and collided, thereby improving the driving safety of the vehicle 200.
[0039] It should be noted that the plurality of fixing holes 21 can be arranged at equal intervals or non-equal intervals, and are specifically set according to the actual use situation, improving the flexibility of use of the plurality of fixing holes 21 and the flexibility of use of the fixing portion 2. Among them, the fixing portion 2 is connected to the upper part of the longitudinal beam 2011, and a part of the mounting portion 1 protrudes from the longitudinal beam 2011, effectively ensuring that the steering pump 202 is located above the longitudinal beam 2011 after installation, thereby ensuring that the steering pump 202 is not collided, extending the service life of the steering pump 202, and also ensuring that the occupied space of the connecting member 100 on the longitudinal beam 2011 is reduced.
[0040] According to the connecting member 100 of the present utility model, a plurality of fixing holes 21 are flexibly arranged, which improves the flexibility of use of the fixing portion 2. When the connecting member 100 is used for the vehicle 200, the connecting member 100 is connected to the longitudinal beam 2011 of the vehicle 200 through the fixing holes 21, thereby improving the installation convenience of the connecting member 100, and further improving the installation convenience of the steering pump 202. In addition, the arrangement of the plurality of fixing holes 21 enables the connecting member 100 to be connected to the longitudinal beam 2011 from different positions, strengthening the connection strength between the connecting member 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011, thereby improving the installation stability of the steering pump 202. Additionally, the volume of the connecting member 100 is small, occupying a small space on the longitudinal beam 2011. By means of the connecting member 100, the installation height of the steering pump 202 is increased, avoiding damage to the steering pump 202.
[0041] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, referring to Figure 1 , the shape of the fixing portion 2 is a polygon, and a plurality of fixing holes 21 are respectively formed at a plurality of corners of the fixing portion 2. For example, in the Figure 1 example, the fixing hole 21 is located at the connection of two adjacent side edges of the fixing portion 2. With such an arrangement, the corner of the fixing portion 2 is connected to the longitudinal beam 2011, avoiding the corner of the fixing portion 2 from warping and affecting the connection between the fixing portion 2 and the longitudinal beam 2011, thereby improving the connection stability between the fixing portion 2 and the longitudinal beam 2011, preventing the connecting member 100 from falling off the longitudinal beam 2011, and further improving the use stability of the steering pump 202. Moreover, the overall connection between the fixing portion 2 and the longitudinal beam 2011 is relatively stable, and the forces on each corner of the fixing portion 2 are relatively balanced. It should be noted that the thickness of the side wall of the fixing hole 21 in the left-right direction is adjustable, that is, fixing holes 21 of different sizes can be set according to the usage requirements to adjust the position of the steering pump 202 in the vehicle 200, so as to facilitate adapting to the widths of the engines and cabs of different vehicles 200.
[0042] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the polygon is a triangle. For example, in the Figure 1In the example, the shape of the fixing part 2 is triangular. The fixing part 2 has three corners, and three fixing holes 21 are formed on the fixing part 2. The first fixing hole 21 and the second fixing hole 21 are arranged at intervals in the front-rear direction. The third fixing hole 21 is located below the second fixing hole 21 at the rear side. The distances between the three fixing holes 21 are not equally spaced. With such a setting, by utilizing the principle that a triangle has stability, the stability of the structure of the fixing part 2 is improved, thereby improving the structural strength of the fixing part 2, further improving the structural strength of the connecting piece 100, and also improving the installation stability of the steering pump 202. In addition, the occupied area of the fixing part 2 on the longitudinal beam 2011 is reduced to reduce the space occupied by the connecting piece 100 on the longitudinal beam 2011, so as to facilitate the installation of the steering pump 202. Moreover, the number of fixing holes 21 is also reduced, the number of through holes 2012 of the longitudinal beam 2011 occupied during the assembly of the connecting piece 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011 is reduced, and other through holes 2012 (such as the brake crossbeam hole) can also be avoided, thereby contributing to avoiding the installation of some components of the vehicle 200 and improving the convenience of the installation of the vehicle 200.
[0043] In addition, the structure of the connecting piece 100 is also made smaller, reducing the occupied space of the connecting piece 100, facilitating the installation of the steering pump 202 on the longitudinal beam 2011 through the connecting piece 100, increasing the height of the installation position of the steering pump 202. When the vehicle 200 passes through an uneven road surface, the steering pump 202 is prevented from being damaged by collision, the service life of the steering pump 202 is extended, and the safety of the vehicle 200 during use is also improved. When the vehicle 200 passes through a muddy road surface or a water-crossing road surface, impurities (such as mud and water) are prevented from invading the steering pump 202, and the influence of the invasion of impurities on the service life of other components of the vehicle 200 (such as the steering gear and the assembly of the steering oil pump) is also avoided, thereby extending the service life of the steering pump 202 and enabling the vehicle 200 to be used normally for a long time. However, it is not limited to this. It should be noted that the third fixing hole 21 can also be located below the first fixing hole 21 at the front side, and the positions of the three fixing holes 21 can be specifically set according to the actual use situation.
[0044] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1 , the installation part 1 includes a first installation section 11, a second installation section 12, and a third installation section 13. The lower surface of the first installation section 11 is connected to the fixing part 2, and the first installation section 11 extends along the thickness direction of the fixing part 2 (such as the left-right direction shown in Figure 1 ), the second installation section 12 and the third installation section 13 are respectively connected to the upper surface of the first installation section 11, and the second installation section 12 and the third installation section 13 are opposite to each other along the thickness direction of the fixing part 2.
[0045] For example, in Figure 1In the example, the lower surface of the first mounting section 11 is connected to the upper side surface of the fixing portion 2. The first mounting portion 1 extends in the left - right direction. The second mounting section 12 is connected to the left side of the upper surface of the first mounting section 11, and the third mounting section 13 is connected to the right side of the upper side surface of the first mounting section 11. With such an arrangement, when the mounting portion 1 is mounted to the steering pump 202, the first mounting section 11, the second mounting section 12, and the third mounting section 13 wrap the lower part of the steering pump 202, facilitating the assembly of the mounting portion 1 and the steering pump 202 and also improving the assembly stability. In addition, the mounting portion 1 can also protect the lower part of the steering pump 202, preventing the lower part of the steering pump 202 from being damaged, thereby extending the service life of the steering pump 202.
[0046] Further, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , one end of the second mounting section 12 and one end of the third mounting section 13 are respectively connected to both sides of the extending direction of the first mounting section 11, and the other end of the second mounting section 12 and the other end of the third mounting section 13 extend obliquely away from each other along the arrangement direction of the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2.
[0047] For example, in the examples of Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the lower end of the second mounting section 12 is connected to the left side of the first mounting section 11, the lower end of the third mounting section 13 is connected to the right side of the first mounting section 11, the upper end of the second mounting section 12 extends obliquely away from the third mounting section 13 (i.e., in the left - ward direction) in the upward direction from bottom to top, and the upper end of the third mounting section 13 extends obliquely away from the second mounting section 12 (i.e., in the right - ward direction) in the upward direction from bottom to top. With such an arrangement, the arrangement of the first mounting section 11, the second mounting section 12, and the third mounting section 13 fits the outer peripheral surface of the lower end of the steering pump 202, improving the fitting degree of the assembly of the steering pump 202 and the mounting portion 1 and further improving the installation stability of the steering pump 202 and the mounting portion 1. In addition, the structure of the mounting portion 1 is simple and easy to produce, thereby improving the production efficiency of the mounting portion 1 and the production efficiency of the connecting member 100.
[0048] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , at least one first mounting hole 121 is formed on the second mounting section 12, at least one second mounting hole 131 is formed on the third mounting section 13, and a notch 132 is formed on the side wall of one of the first mounting hole 121 and the second mounting hole 131.
[0049] For example, in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6In the example, the first mounting hole 121 is formed at the upper end of the second mounting section 12, the second mounting hole 131 is formed at the upper end of the third mounting section 13, the notch 132 is formed on the side wall of the second mounting hole 131 away from the first mounting section 11, or the notch 132 is formed on the side wall of the first mounting hole 121 away from the first mounting section 11 (not shown in the figure). With such a setting, when the steering pump 202 is connected to the mounting portion 1 through the first mounting hole 121 and the second mounting hole 131, it is convenient for the steering pump 202 to fit into the first mounting hole 121 and the second mounting hole 131, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty between the steering pump 202 and the mounting portion 1 and improving the assembly efficiency of the steering pump 202 and the mounting portion 1, that is, solving the assembly difficulty caused by overconstraint. It should be noted that the notch 132 can be formed on the side wall of the first mounting hole 121 or the second mounting hole 131, preferably on the side wall of the second mounting hole 131. As Figure 1 shown. Among them, a plurality of first mounting holes 121 are formed on the second mounting section 12, a plurality of second mounting holes 131 are formed on the third mounting section 13, and a notch 132 is formed on the side wall of each second mounting hole 131, thereby further strengthening the connection strength between the steering pump 202 and the mounting portion 1 and further improving the mounting stability of the steering pump 202.
[0050] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1 , a first weight-reducing hole 111 is formed on the first mounting section 11 and penetrates through the two side surfaces in the thickness direction of the first mounting section 11 (such as the up-and-down direction shown in Figure 1 ). Thus, the first weight-reducing hole 111 reduces the weight of the first mounting section 11, thereby reducing the weight of the connecting member 100 and facilitating the installation and transportation of the connecting member 100. In addition, the first weight-reducing hole 111 also reduces the material consumption of the first mounting section 11, thereby reducing the production cost of the mounting portion 1 and the production cost of the connecting member 100.
[0051] According to other embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1 , a second weight-reducing hole 22 is formed on the fixing portion 2 and penetrates through the two side surfaces in the thickness direction of the fixing portion 2 (such as the left-and-right direction shown in Figure 1 ), and a plurality of fixing holes 21 are formed on the outer peripheral side of the second weight-reducing hole 22. For example, in the example of Figure 1 , the cross-sectional shape of the second weight-reducing hole 22 is triangular. Thus, while ensuring the structural strength of the fixing portion 2, the weight of the fixing portion 2 is reduced, thereby further reducing the weight of the connecting member 100 and further facilitating the installation and transportation of the connecting member 100. In addition, the material consumption of the fixing portion 2 is also reduced, and the production cost of the fixing portion 2 is reduced, thereby further reducing the production cost of the connecting member 100.
[0052] According to some further embodiments of the present utility model, referring to Figure 1 , a first weight-reducing hole 111 is formed on the first mounting section 11, penetrating through both side surfaces in the thickness direction of the first mounting section 11. Meanwhile, a second weight-reducing hole 22 is formed on the fixing portion 2, penetrating through both side surfaces in the thickness direction of the fixing portion 2, and a plurality of fixing holes 21 are formed on the outer peripheral side of the second weight-reducing hole 22. With such a setting, the weights of the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2 are reduced, the weight of the connecting member 100 is decreased, facilitating the installation and transportation of the connecting member 100. In addition, the material usage of the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2 is also reduced, the production costs of the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2 are lowered, thereby further reducing the production cost of the connecting member 100.
[0053] Furthermore, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the connecting member 100 further includes a supporting portion 3, the supporting portion 3 is disposed between the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2, and the length of the supporting portion 3 in the thickness direction of the fixing portion 2 gradually increases in the direction from the fixing portion 2 towards the mounting portion 1.
[0054] For example, in the examples of Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the upper end of the supporting portion 3 is connected to the lower side surface of the first mounting section 11, the lower end of the supporting portion 3 is connected to the upper end of the fixing portion 2, and the length of the supporting portion 3 in the left-right direction gradually increases in the upward direction. With such a setting, the contact area between the supporting portion 3 and the lower surface of the first mounting section 11 is increased, the supporting effect of the supporting portion 3 on the first mounting section 11 is increased, thereby further improving the stability of the mounting portion 1 and also improving the structural strength of the connecting member 100.
[0055] According to some embodiments of the present utility model, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the supporting portion 3 includes a first supporting section 31, a second supporting section 32 and a third supporting section 33.
[0056] Specifically, both ends of the first supporting section 31 are respectively connected to the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2. The second supporting section 32 and the third supporting section 33 are respectively connected to both sides of the first supporting section 31 in the length direction of the longitudinal beam 2011 (such as the front-back direction shown in Figure 3 ), the second supporting section 32 and the third supporting section 33 are located on the same side in the thickness direction of the first supporting section 31 (such as the left-right direction shown in Figure 3 ), and the lengths of the second supporting section 32 and the third supporting section 33 gradually increase in the direction from the fixing portion 2 towards the mounting portion 1.
[0057] For example, in Figure 1 , Figure 3 andFigure 4 In the example of Figure 4 , the shapes of the second support section 32 and the third support section 33 are triangular. The first support section 31 extends in the vertical direction. The upper end of the first support section 31 is connected to the lower side surface of the first mounting section 11, and the lower end of the first support section 31 is connected to the upper end of the fixing part 2. The second support section 32 and the third support section 33 are respectively connected to the right side surface of the first support section 31. The second support section 32 and the third support section 33 are opposite to each other in the front-rear direction. The left end of the second support section 32 is connected to the front end of the right side surface of the first support section 31, and the left end of the third support section 33 is connected to the rear end of the right side surface of the first support section 31. The upper end of the second support section 32 is connected to the lower side surface of the first mounting section 11, and the upper end of the third support section 33 is connected to the lower side surface of the first mounting section 11. In the direction from bottom to top, the lengths of the second support section 32 and the third support section 33 in the left-right direction gradually increase.
[0058] With such an arrangement, the support part 3 supports the mounting part 1 from three positions, improving the strength of the support and also the stability of the support, thereby further enhancing the structural strength of the connector 100. In addition, the connection area between the second support section 32 and the third support section 33 and the mounting part 1 is increased, strengthening the connection strength between the support part 3 and the mounting part 1, thus enhancing the supporting effect of the support part 3 on the mounting part 1, improving the structural strength of the connector 100, and also improving the use stability of the connector 100. Additionally, the structure of the support part 3 is simple and easy to manufacture, thereby improving the production efficiency of the support part 3, the production efficiency of the connector 100, and also the practicality of the connector 100.
[0059] According to some other embodiments of the present utility model, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the fixing part 2 is provided with a plurality of fixing structures 23. Fixing holes 21 are formed on the fixing structures 23. The side surface of the fixing structure 23 facing the longitudinal beam 2011 is adapted to contact the longitudinal beam 2011. The side surfaces of the support part 3 and the fixing part 2 facing the longitudinal beam 2011 are adapted to be spaced from the side surface of the longitudinal beam 2011.
[0060] For example, in Figure 1 and Figure 2In the example, the fixing hole 21 penetrates through the fixing hole 21 in the left - right direction. The lower side surface of the supporting portion 3 is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the fixing structure 23 among the plurality of fixing structures 23 that is close to the supporting portion 3. The left side surface of the fixing structure 23 contacts the right side surface of the longitudinal beam 2011, and the left side surfaces of the supporting portion 3 and the fixing portion 2 are spaced from the right side surface of the longitudinal beam 2011. With such an arrangement, the structure is simple. During the production of the connecting member 100, it is easy to control the left side surfaces of the plurality of fixing structures 23 to be on the same plane. On the one hand, the smoothness of the installation of the connecting member 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011 is improved, and the use stability of the connecting member 100 is improved, thereby improving the use stability of the steering pump 202 and facilitating the use of the steering pump 202. On the other hand, the production requirements for the left side surfaces of the fixing portion 2 and the supporting portion 3 are reduced, thereby reducing the production difficulty of the connecting member 100 and improving the production efficiency of the connecting member 100. It should be noted that, in the up - down direction, the first supporting section 31 of the supporting portion 3 and the fixing portion 2 can be on the same horizontal plane or be offset in the left - right direction. It should be noted that the different thicknesses of the fixing structure 23 in the left - right direction can be set according to the usage requirements, so as to adjust the distance between the lower part of the connecting member 100 (i.e., the fixing portion 2 and the supporting portion 3) and the longitudinal beam 2011, thereby adjusting the position of the steering pump 202 in the vehicle 200 and further facilitating the adaptation to the widths of the engines and cabs of different vehicles 200.
[0061] According to still some other embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the supporting portion 3 includes a first supporting section 31, a second supporting section 32, and a third supporting section 33. The two ends of the first supporting section 31 are respectively connected to the mounting portion 1 and the fixing portion 2. The second supporting section 32 and the third supporting section 33 are respectively connected to the two sides of the first supporting section 31 along the length direction of the longitudinal beam 2011. The second supporting section 32 and the third supporting section 33 are on the same side in the thickness direction of the first supporting section 31, and the lengths of the second supporting section 32 and the third supporting section 33 gradually increase in the direction from the fixing portion 2 towards the mounting portion 1. At the same time, the fixing portion 2 is provided with a plurality of fixing structures 23, fixing holes 21 are formed on the fixing structures 23, the side surface of the fixing structure 23 facing the longitudinal beam 2011 is adapted to contact the longitudinal beam 2011, and the side surfaces of the supporting portion 3 and the fixing portion 2 facing the longitudinal beam 2011 are adapted to be spaced from the side surface of the longitudinal beam 2011.
[0062] With such a setting, the supporting part 3 supports the mounting part 1 from three positions, which improves the strength of the support and also increases the connection area between the supporting part 3 and the mounting part 1, thereby further enhancing the structural strength and stability of the connecting member 100. In addition, the structure is simple. During the production process of the connecting member 100, it is easy to control the left sides of the multiple fixing structures 23 to be on the same plane. On the one hand, this improves the smoothness of the installation of the connecting member 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011. On the other hand, it reduces the production requirements for the left sides of the fixing part 2 and the supporting part 3, reduces the production difficulty of the connecting member 100, and improves the production efficiency of the connecting member 100.
[0063] A vehicle 200 according to a second aspect embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 2 , includes a vehicle frame 201, a connecting member 100, and a steering pump 202.
[0064] Specifically, the vehicle frame 201 includes a longitudinal beam 2011. The connecting member 100 is a connecting member 100 for the steering pump 202 according to the above first aspect embodiment of the present invention. The fixing part 2 of the connecting member 100 is connected to the upper side of the longitudinal beam 2011 through the cooperation of the fixing hole 21 and a fastener (not shown in the figure). The steering pump 202 is located above the longitudinal beam 2011, and the steering pump 202 is connected to the connecting member 100 through the first mounting hole 121 and the second mounting hole 131 of the connecting member 100.
[0065] For example, in the Figure 2 example, the connecting member 100 is located on one side of the longitudinal beam 2011, and the fastener passes through the fixing hole 21 to connect with the longitudinal beam 2011 to connect the fixing part 2 to the vehicle frame 201. With such a setting, the structure of the connecting member 100 is smaller, reducing the occupied space of the connection, facilitating the installation of the steering pump 202 above the longitudinal beam 2011 through the connecting member 100, so that the installation position of the steering pump 202 is relatively high, avoiding damage to the steering pump 202 or intrusion of impurities into the steering pump 202 and other components during the driving process of the vehicle 200, thereby extending the service life of the steering pump 202 and enabling the vehicle 200 to be used normally for a long time. It should be noted that the fastener can be a bolt, but is not limited thereto.
[0066] Optionally, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 , a plurality of mounting bolts 2021 are provided on the outer peripheral side of the bottom of the steering pump 202, and the plurality of mounting bolts 2021 are respectively and correspondingly fitted into the plurality of first mounting holes 121 and the plurality of second mounting holes 131. For example, in the Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6In the example, two mounting bolts 2021 are provided on the left side of the bottom of the steering pump 202. The two mounting bolts 2021 are respectively inserted into the corresponding two first mounting holes 121. Two mounting bolts 2021 are also provided on the right side of the bottom of the steering pump 202. The two mounting bolts 2021 respectively enter the second mounting holes 131 along the notches 132 on the corresponding two second mounting holes 131. With such a setting, through the cooperation of multiple mounting bolts 2021 with the corresponding first mounting holes 121 and second mounting holes 131, the steering pump 202 is connected and assembled with the mounting part 1, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty of the steering pump 202 and the connecting member 100, improving the assembly stability, and further improving the installation efficiency.
[0067] Optionally, referring to Figure 2 , a plurality of through holes 2012 are formed on the longitudinal beam 2011, and a plurality of fixing holes 21 are opposite to some of the through holes 2012. The vehicle 200 further includes a steering cylinder 203. An oil suction pipe (not shown in the figure) is provided between the steering cylinder 203 and the steering pump 202. It should be noted that the through holes 2012 are standard holes and can be used interchangeably. The distance between two adjacent through holes 2012 in the front-rear direction is 50 mm, and the distance between two adjacent through holes 2012 in the up-down direction is 60 mm.
[0068] With such a setting, it is convenient for the fasteners to sequentially pass through the fixing holes 21 and the corresponding through holes 2012 to fix the connecting member 100 and the longitudinal beam 2011 together, thereby improving the installation convenience. In addition, through the connecting member 100, it is convenient to move the steering pump 202 closer to the steering oil pipe, shortening the length of the oil suction pipe (for example, compared with the traditional technology, the oil suction pipe is shortened by more than 1000 m), thereby achieving a double reduction in weight and material cost, optimizing the routing of the oil suction pipe, reducing the production cost of the vehicle 200, and improving the visual effect of the vehicle 200. It should be noted that the connecting member 100 and the steering pump 202 can also be installed in the protective housing (not shown in the figure) of the engine (not shown in the figure) of the vehicle 200. The protective housing of the engine can also protect the connecting member 100, thereby further effectively preventing the steering pump 202 from being knocked and preventing impurities (such as water and soil) from entering the steering pump 202 and affecting the use of the steering pump 202, further extending the service life of the steering pump 202, ensuring the driving safety of the vehicle 200, and improving the use reliability of the steering system of the vehicle 200.
