[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , this application provides an automobile, including an engine compartment 200, a front hood panel 300, a front hood extension panel 400 and an automobile washer reservoir assembly 100.

[0032] Refer to Figures 1 to 6 , the automobile washer reservoir assembly 100 includes a washer reservoir 10, a first mounting structure 20 and a second mounting structure 30. The washer reservoir 10 includes a reservoir body 11 and a plurality of mounting portions 12 provided on the reservoir body 11. The first mounting structure 20 is provided on the front hood panel 300 and is used to connect with the mounting portions 12 to mount the washer reservoir 10 in the engine compartment 200. The second mounting structure 30 is provided on the front hood extension panel 400 and is used to connect with the mounting portions 12 to mount the washer reservoir 10 in the engine compartment 200.

[0033] It can be understood that the first mounting structure 20 and the second mounting structure 30 fix the installation position 31 of the washer reservoir 10 in the engine compartment 200, so that the washer reservoir 10 can be installed at the same position on different vehicle models. The mounting portions 12 are also provided on the reservoir body 11 to cooperate with the installation, so the first mounting structure 20 and the second mounting structure 30 can complete the installation without complex design, and the overall structure is simple.

[0034] In an embodiment, the washer reservoir 10 is installed at a position on one side of the engine compartment 200 close to the left front wheel. The washer reservoir 10 and the fuse box are symmetrically arranged, with high aesthetic degree.

[0035] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the aforementioned front cover plate 300 is the left front wheel cover plate, and the aforementioned front cover extension plate 400 is the left front wheel cover extension plate. That is, the washer fluid reservoir 10 is installed in the space formed by the enclosure of the left front wheel cover plate and the left front wheel cover extension plate. That is, at the position on the side of the engine compartment 200 close to the left front wheel.

[0036] Further, the plurality of installation parts 12 include a first installation part 121 and a second installation part 122. The first installation part 121 is provided on the outer wall of the pot body 11 close to the front cover plate 300, facilitating connection with the first installation structure 20 on the front cover plate 300. The second installation part 122 is provided on the outer wall of the pot body 11 close to the front cover extension plate 400, facilitating connection with the second installation structure 30 on the front cover extension plate 400.

[0037] Preferably, both the first installation part 121 and the second installation part 122 are feet provided on the pot body 11 and are integrally formed with the pot body 11. Of course, in other embodiments, the first installation part 121 and the second installation part 122 can also be set to other shapes or structures and can be separately provided from the pot body 11.

[0038] In one embodiment, the plurality of installation parts 12 further include a third installation part 123. The third installation part 123 is provided on the outer wall of the pot body 11 close to the front cover extension plate 400, facilitating connection with the second installation structure 30 on the front cover extension plate 400.

[0039] Preferably, the third installation part 123 is a foot provided on the pot body 11 and is integrally formed with the pot body 11. Of course, in other embodiments, the third installation part 123 can also be set to other shapes or structures and can be separately provided from the pot body 11.

[0040] Further, the first installation part 121, the second installation part 122, and the third installation part 123 are arranged in a triangular shape on the pot body 11. After installation, the position limit of the pot body 11 is more firm and the support is more stable.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first installation structure 20 includes an installation bracket 21 and a first connecting piece 22. Among them, the installation bracket 21 is provided on the front cover plate 300, and the first connecting piece 22 connects the installation bracket 21 and the installation part 12.

[0042] Optionally, the first connecting piece 22 is a bolt, which is convenient for disassembly. The installation bracket 21 and the installation part 12 are respectively provided with through holes for the bolt to pass through. Of course, it is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first connecting piece 22 can also adopt other structures such as solder, glue, rivets, etc.

[0043] Furthermore, the mounting bracket 21 and the front cover plate 300 are of a split structure, which avoids complicating the structure of the front cover plate 300 and simplifies the processing. The mounting bracket 21 can be connected to the front cover plate 300 by means such as welding, screwing, riveting, etc., preferably by welding, with a firm connection.

[0044] In this embodiment, the second mounting structure 30 includes a mounting position 31 and a second connecting member 32. Among them, the mounting position 31 is provided on the front cover extension plate 400, and the second connecting member 32 connects the mounting position 31 and the mounting portion 12.

[0045] Optionally, the second connecting member 32 is a bolt, which is convenient for disassembly. Through holes are respectively provided in the mounting position 31 and the mounting portion 12 for the bolt to pass through. Of course, it is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the second connecting member 32 can also adopt other structures such as solder, glue, rivets, etc.

[0046] Preferably, the mounting position 31 and the front cover extension plate 400 are of an integrally formed structure, and the mounting position 31 can be directly stamped on the front cover extension plate 400.

[0047] Furthermore, the second mounting structure 30 is provided in two groups. The positions of the two groups of second mounting structures 30 respectively correspond to the positions of the second mounting portion 122 and the third mounting portion 123. This ensures that both the second mounting portion 122 and the third mounting portion 123 are connected and supported.

[0048] In this embodiment, in the height direction of the kettle body 11, a liquid inlet 111 is provided at the upper part of the kettle body 11, and a kettle lid 112 is provided on the kettle body 11 corresponding to the position of the liquid inlet 111.

[0049] It can be understood that since the washing kettle 10 is installed in the engine compartment 200, the upper part of the kettle body 11 will be directly exposed and there will be no obstruction around it. Therefore, only the liquid inlet 111 needs to be provided at the upper part, and there is no need to provide a kettle neck to meet the liquid adding requirement, and the liquid adding operation is simple.

[0050] The washing kettle 10 further includes structures such as a motor 113 and a washing pipe 114. Their structural distribution and principles are all prior arts, so they will not be elaborated here.

[0051] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of concise description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combinations of these technical features do not conflict, they should all be considered as the scope described in this specification.

[0052] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation manners of the present application. The description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation to the scope of the patented application. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the appended claims.
