Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicle brackets, and particularly relates to a combined bracket for an air filter and a fender. Background Art

[0002] When designing the intake system of a truck, in most cases, the air filter is placed on the ventral side of the vehicle frame, and the fender is also installed on the ventral side of the vehicle frame. The traditional method is to install the fender bracket and the air filter bracket side by side and not far apart. This approach wastes a large amount of the overall vehicle layout space, increases the vehicle weight, and reduces the load capacity. Moreover, an additional installation process is required during workshop installation, making the installation rather cumbersome.

[0003] For this reason, a combined bracket for an air filter - fender, with the publication number "CN202029911U", includes: a base, a steel pipe perpendicularly connected to the base, and an air filter mounting arm and a fender mounting arm provided on the steel pipe; a fastening strap is provided on the air filter mounting arm to fix the air filter. The utility model combines the air filter bracket and the fender bracket into one, and simultaneously sets the air filter mounting arm and the fender mounting arm on one bracket, which can save materials and reduce costs. Moreover, the mounting surface of the air filter mounting arm is set to be adapted to the shape of the air filter to ensure that the air filter is firmly mounted on the air filter mounting arm. The air filter is fixed using the fastening strap welded to the air filter mounting arm, which can reduce the number of mounting parts and save installation time.

[0004] However, for the above - mentioned combined bracket for an air filter - fender, although a fastening strap is provided on the air filter mounting arm to fix the air filter, the fastening strap can be selected from a steel wire rope or made by cutting a thin steel sheet. In order to ensure the firm fixing strength of the air filter, there are still the following obvious defects during use: However, after the air filter is connected to the vehicle body, when there is a spacing deviation between the position of the air filter fixing seat and the combined bracket, since the installation position of the combined bracket is fixed and the spacing length cannot be adjusted, it is impossible to adjust the air filter fixing seat with a spacing to be installed and fixed to the combined bracket. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a combined bracket for an air filter and a fender to solve the problems raised in the above - mentioned background art.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present utility model provides the following technical solutions: A combined bracket for an air filter and a fender, including a combined bracket plate, and on both vertical sides outside the outwardly convex surface of the combined bracket plate, there are provided adjustment lock plate members for position adjustment and installation of the air filter. On the opposite side of the outwardly convex surface of the combined bracket plate, there is formed a fender installation cavity for installing the automobile tire fender. One end of the combined bracket plate is inclined and bent and extends to one side to be provided with a reinforcement extension part for installing and strengthening the fender. The other end of the combined bracket plate is bent and extended to be provided with a bracket installation part for installing the combined bracket plate on the vehicle body. The lower end of the combined bracket plate extends downward to be provided with an auxiliary baffle member for fending off mud according to the tire width. The auxiliary baffle member and the corresponding surface of the combined bracket plate bulge outward to form a buffer cavity for buffer support of one end of the connection of the air filter.

[0007] Preferably, the adjustment lock plate member is of a U-shaped structure welded to both sides of the outwardly convex surface of the combined bracket plate, and the front end of the adjustment lock plate member is provided with an adjustment lock groove in a strip structure for facilitating the sliding adjustment of the screw, so that the air filter fixing seat can be adjusted on the adjustment lock plate member to shorten the spacing length.

[0008] Preferably, on the inner side of the connection corner of the combined bracket plate and the reinforcement extension part and on the inner surface of the fender installation cavity, support strengthening blocks are symmetrically welded, which can strengthen the firmness of the combined bracket plate when hard objects brought up by the inertia during tire rotation impact on it.

[0009] Preferably, at the bottom end of the bracket installation part, a fixed strip plate member for tensioning and fixing the side of the combined bracket plate is fixed by screws, and bolts for locking on the vehicle body are vertically symmetrically penetrated through the side of the bracket installation part, so as to install the combined bracket plate on the body bracket above one side of the tire.

[0010] Preferably, shock-absorbing air cushions are symmetrically connected inside the auxiliary baffle member. One end of the shock-absorbing air cushion is fixed with a shock-absorbing baffle, and a shock-absorbing elastic member is connected inside the shock-absorbing air cushion, which can play a role in buffer support for one end of the connection between the air filter and the vehicle body, and avoid damage to the connection end of the air filter caused by hard objects hitting the combined bracket.

[0011] Preferably, the shock-absorbing air cushion and the shock-absorbing baffle are combined and arranged inside the buffer cavity, and one side of the shock-absorbing baffle is attached to the outer surface of the combined bracket plate. Air inlet and outlet holes are penetrated through the surface of the shock-absorbing baffle to enhance the effect of buffer impact protection on the air filter.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of the present utility model are as follows: For the combined bracket of the air filter and the fender, through the adjusting lock plate members symmetrically arranged on the convex outer surface of the combined bracket plate, and the adjusting lock grooves arranged on the front surface of the adjusting lock plate members, after the air filter is fixed on the adjusting lock plate members by the fixing seat, when there is a spacing error at the connection between the connection end of the air filter and the vehicle body installation, the screws on the fixing seat of the air filter can be horizontally adjusted and moved in the adjusting lock grooves on the adjusting lock plate members, so that the fixing seat of the air filter can be horizontally adjusted on the adjusting lock plate members, thereby realizing the adjustment of the spacing error between the installation position of the air filter and the vehicle body, and thus realizing the connection and fixing of the spacing adjustment of air filters of various lengths and the vehicle body installation, improving the scope of use and practicability of the combined bracket, and at the same time solving the problems and defects proposed in the background technology.

[0013] Through the auxiliary baffle member arranged on the outer bottom side of the combined bracket plate, the buffer cavity formed between the auxiliary baffle member and the combined bracket plate, and the shock-absorbing air cushion, shock-absorbing baffle, and shock-absorbing elastic member arranged in the buffer cavity, the combined bracket plate can use the auxiliary baffle to widen the protection of the air filter, so that the impact force generated after the hard objects splashed and rolled up during the vehicle driving collide with the combined bracket plate can be buffered and reduced by the shock-absorbing air cushion and shock-absorbing elastic member, avoiding the combined bracket plate directly hitting the auxiliary baffle member to generate resonance, and it is easy to cause the problem of loosening and falling off of the air filter installation components after a long time of resonance, thereby improving the firmness and stability of the combined bracket plate after being installed on the vehicle body.

[0017] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a combined bracket for an air filter and a fender, including a combined bracket plate 1, and adjustment lock plate members 2 are vertically arranged on both outer sides of the outwardly convex surface of the combined bracket plate 1 for position adjustment and installation of the air filter, which can perform horizontal sliding adjustment on the installation distance between the air filter and the vehicle body, so that the combined bracket plate 1 can be installed on one side of various truck wheels. A fender installation cavity 3 for installing the automotive tire fender is formed on the back surface of the outwardly convex surface of the combined bracket plate 1, and reinforcing pieces are symmetrically arranged at the inclined bending part on one side of the fender installation cavity 3 to make the bending part more firm and stable. One end of the combined bracket plate 1 is inclined and bent and extends to one side to be provided with a reinforcing extension part 4 for installing and reinforcing the fender, which can improve the installation firmness of the fender after being installed in the fender installation cavity 3. The other end of the combined bracket plate 1 is bent and extended to be provided with a bracket installation part 5 for installing the combined bracket plate 1 on the vehicle body, so as to realize locking and fixing of the combined bracket plate 1 and the vehicle body by screws. The lower end of the combined bracket plate 1 extends downward to be provided with an auxiliary baffle member 6 for shielding the width of the tire, which can install and fix corresponding to the width of the fender completely, and strengthen the firmness of the fender during vehicle driving. A buffer cavity 7 for buffering and supporting one end of the connection of the air filter is formed by the outward convexity of the corresponding surface of the auxiliary baffle member 6 and the combined bracket plate 1, which plays a role of shock absorption and buffering at one end of the connection between the air filter and the vehicle body, and improves the protection effect on the air filter after installation.

[0019] The adjustment lock plate member 2 is of a U-shaped structure and is welded on both sides of the outwardly convex surface of the combined bracket plate 1, which is beneficial to the horizontal adjustment of the air filter mounting seat to reduce the spacing error at the installation position of the air filter and the vehicle body. The front end surface of the adjustment lock plate member 2 is provided with an adjustment lock groove 8 in a strip structure for the sliding adjustment of screws, so that the air filter mounting seat can perform horizontal positioning sliding on the adjustment lock plate member 2 and be locked and fixed by screws. Support strengthening blocks 9 are symmetrically welded on the inner side of the connection corner of the combined bracket plate 1 and the reinforcing extension part 4 and on the inner surface of the fender installation cavity 3 to improve the overall strength of the bending part of the combined bracket plate 1 and avoid the phenomenon of deformation caused by external object impact. A fixed strip plate member 10 for tensioning and fixing the side of the combined bracket plate 1 is fixed at the bottom end of the bracket installation part 5 by screws to enhance the overall firmness of the combined bracket plate 1. Bolts 11 locked on the vehicle body vertically penetrate through the side of the bracket installation part 5 symmetrically to realize the locking connection between the combined bracket plate 1 and the vehicle body, and prevent the fender from fixedly blocking the external impact on the air filter.

[0020] Inside the auxiliary baffle member 6, shock-absorbing air cushions 12 are symmetrically connected to reduce the impact force of hard objects on the auxiliary baffle member 6. One end of the shock-absorbing air cushion 12 is fixed with a shock-absorbing baffle 13 to achieve the supporting effect on the shock-absorbing air cushion 12. Inside the shock-absorbing air cushion 12, a shock-absorbing elastic member 14 is connected. After the impact force of the shock-absorbing air cushion 12 and the shock-absorbing elastic member 14 is compressed by an external object impact, it can reduce the impact force on the auxiliary baffle member 6 and avoid generating a large resonance. The shock-absorbing air cushion 12 and the shock-absorbing baffle 13 are combined and arranged inside the buffer cavity 7, and one side of the shock-absorbing baffle 13 is attached to the outer side of the combined support plate 1. An air inlet / outlet hole position 15 is provided through the surface of the shock-absorbing baffle 13, which is conducive to the shock-absorbing air cushion 12 automatically returning to its initial state after being compressed to relieve the impact force.

[0021] Specifically, during use, first install the vehicle mudguard on one side of the mudguard installation cavity 3 and the reinforcement extension 4 on the combined support plate 1. Then, install the combined support plate 1 on one side of the vehicle tire through the support installation part 5 and the fixed strip 10, and fix the auxiliary baffle member 6 on one side of the combined support plate 1 to increase the overall installation width of the combined support plate 1, so that the mudguard can be more firmly and stably fixed to the combined support plate 1 and will not fall off after a long time. Then, connect and fix the air filter to the fixing seat of the external accessory, and the screws on the fixing seat pass through the adjustment lock groove 8 to position the surface of the adjustment lock plate member 2. When there is a spacing error between the air filter and the position where the vehicle body installs the air filter, the air filter can be moved horizontally closer to the corresponding air filter installation position by being fixed to the surface of the adjustment lock plate member 2. Thus, the installation of air filters of different lengths on the combined support plate 1 can be adjusted in terms of spacing length by using the external fixing seat on the adjustment lock plate member 2, which is conducive to adjusting the installation position of air filters of different lengths on the combined support of the air filter and the mudguard. Moreover, the combined support plate 1 uses the auxiliary baffle member 6 to widen the protection against the air filter. Then, when a hard object splashed by the vehicle during driving impacts the combined support plate 1, the impact force generated is buffered and reduced by the shock-absorbing air cushion 12 and the shock-absorbing elastic member 14, avoiding the combined support plate 1 directly impacting the auxiliary baffle member 6 to generate resonance. After a long time of resonance, it is easy for the air filter installation components to become loose and fall off. Therefore, the combined support plate 1 is more firmly and stably installed on the vehicle body.

[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
