[0002] The front bumper assembly is located at the front of the vehicle. It generally includes structures such as a front bumper and a grille. The grille is installed on the front bumper and is used to assist in air intake.
[0003] Since the force magnitudes at different connection positions between the grille and the front bumper are also inconsistent, when the vehicle is in working conditions such as passing over speed bumps, bumpy roads, and wading through water, the bottom of the grille at the position with less force is prone to fracture, increasing the maintenance cost and causing a poor user experience. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a vehicle front bumper assembly and a vehicle thereof that can reduce the risk of fracture at the bottom of the grille and improve the user experience.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] It can be understood that in the present application, by providing a support plate and a support structure on the support plate, the grille is supported by the support structure, so as to provide sufficient support force for the grille, avoid the problem of fracture of the grille due to uneven force under different working conditions of the vehicle, and effectively improve the user experience.
[0008] In one embodiment, along the length direction of the vehicle, a part of the grille protrudes from the mounting hole and forms a mating portion; the support structure is used to support the mating portion.
[0009] In one embodiment, the support structure includes a bottom plate and a first support protrusion. The bottom plate is connected to the front bumper, the number of the first support protrusions is set to be multiple, and the multiple first support protrusions are spaced along the width direction of the vehicle;
[0010] Wherein, each first support protrusion is installed on the bottom plate and extends along the height direction of the vehicle, and corresponds to and cooperates with the mating portion.
[0011] It can be understood that by providing a plurality of first support protrusions, the grille is supported at different positions in the width direction of the vehicle, further improving the support effect and reducing the possibility of grille fracture.
[0012] In one embodiment, the support structure further includes a plurality of second support protrusions spaced along the width direction of the vehicle. The second support protrusions are mounted on the bottom plate and cooperate with the mating portion correspondingly. Wherein, along the length direction of the vehicle, the first support protrusions and the second support protrusions are spaced apart.
[0013] It can be understood that by providing the second support protrusions, a double support effect is formed with the first support protrusions; moreover, the second support protrusions and the first support protrusions are arranged at intervals in the length direction of the vehicle, thus forming supports at different positions in the length direction of the vehicle.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4, this application provides a vehicle front bumper assembly 100, and the vehicle front bumper assembly 100 includes a front bumper 10, a grille 20, and a support plate 30. An installation hole 11 is formed in the front bumper 10, the grille 20 is installed in the installation hole 11, the support plate 30 is located inside the front bumper 10, is installed on the front bumper 10, and is located below the grille 20 along the height direction z of the vehicle; wherein, a support structure 40 is provided on the support plate 30, and the support structure 40 extends along the height direction z of the vehicle and is used to support the grille 20. In this way, the grille 20 is supported by the support structure 40, so as to provide sufficient supporting force for the grille 20, avoid the problem that the grille 20 breaks due to uneven force under different working conditions of the vehicle, and effectively improve the user experience.
[0039] It should be noted that the inner side and the outer side described in this embodiment are relative to the vehicle and are based on the inside and outside of the vehicle. For example, the inner side of the front bumper 10 is the side of the front bumper 10 facing the inside of the vehicle, and the outer side of the front bumper 10 is the side of the front bumper 10 facing the outside of the vehicle.
[0040] In an embodiment, the grille 20 and the front bumper 10 can be connected by means of snap connection, threaded connection, etc. For example, along the circumference of the installation hole 11, snap connection points and threaded connection points can be arranged on the inner side surface of the front bumper 10, and then the grille 20 is fixed on the front bumper 10 through these points.
[0041] Furthermore, along the length direction x of the vehicle, a part of the grille 20 protrudes from the installation hole 11 to form a matching part 21, and the matching part 21 is located at the bottom position of the grille 20 along the height direction z of the vehicle; the support structure 40 is used to support the matching part 21.
[0042] As Figure 3 shown, the support structure 40 includes a bottom plate 41 and a first support protrusion 42. The bottom plate 41 is connected to the front bumper 10, the number of the first support protrusions 42 is set to be multiple, and the multiple first support protrusions 42 are arranged at intervals along the vehicle width direction y; wherein, each first support protrusion 42 is installed on the bottom plate 41 and extends along the height direction z of the vehicle, and corresponds to and cooperates with the matching part 21. In this way, by providing a plurality of first support protrusions 42, the grille 20 is supported at different positions in the vehicle width direction y, the support effect is further improved, and the possibility of the grille 20 breaking is reduced.
[0043] Here, the bottom plate 41 and the front bumper 10 can be connected by connection means such as snap structures and threaded structures.
[0044] Preferably, the first support protrusion 42 and the bottom plate 41 are set as an integral structure. Specifically, the first support protrusion 42 and the bottom plate 41 can be integrally injection molded.
[0045] Further, please refer to Figure 3 , the support structure 40 further includes a plurality of second support protrusions 43 arranged at intervals along the vehicle width direction y. The second support protrusions 43 are installed on the bottom plate 41 and cooperate with the mating portion 21 correspondingly; wherein, along the vehicle length direction x, the first support protrusion 42 and the second support protrusion 43 are arranged at intervals. In this way, by providing the second support protrusion 43, a double support effect is formed with the first support protrusion 42; moreover, the second support protrusion 43 and the first support protrusion 42 are arranged at intervals in the vehicle length direction x, so that supports at different positions are also formed in the vehicle length direction x, to further improve the support effect on the grille 20 and reduce the possibility of the grille 20 breaking.
[0046] Preferably, the second support protrusion 43 and the bottom plate 41 are set as an integral structure. Specifically, the second support protrusion 43 and the bottom plate 41 can be integrally injection-molded.
[0047] As Figure 3 shown, along the vehicle height direction z, the support structure 40 and the mating portion 21 are arranged at intervals, and the distance between the support structure 40 and the mating portion 21 is set as H, H≤1mm. Here, the support structure 40 and the mating portion 21 are arranged at intervals, which can provide an interaction amount for the movement of the grille 20; at the same time, it avoids abnormal noise caused by long-term contact between the two; secondly, for the support structure 40 and the mating portion 21, the value of H cannot be set too large. If it is too large, the support structure 40 cannot effectively support the mating portion 21, so the gap H between the support structure 40 and the mating portion 21 is set to be less than or equal to 1mm.
[0048] Preferably, the value of H can be set as 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, 1mm and other values. Of course, it is not limited to this. Within this range, the value of H can also be set according to the actual situation.
[0049] As Figure 3 shown, the support structure 40 further includes a flexible member 44. The flexible member 44 is arranged at one end of the support structure 40 facing the mating portion 21. The flexible member 44 is used to contact the mating portion 21, so as to buffer the impact on the support structure 40 and reduce the friction with the support structure 40 when the grille 20 moves downward along the vehicle height direction z, and reduce abnormal noise.
[0050] Preferably, the flexible member 44 is configured as a cloth layer or a sponge layer, and the cloth layer or the sponge layer is connected to the support structure 40 by an adhesive method. Here, by connecting through the adhesive method, not only the structure is simple and convenient, but also it is convenient to replace. Of course, it is not limited to this. The flexible member can also be fixed on the support structure 40 by means of screw connection and the like.
[0051] In an embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 , the vehicle front bumper assembly 100 further includes a bottom guard plate 50, and the bottom guard plate 50 is arranged at the bottom of the front bumper 10 along the height direction of the vehicle, mainly for protecting the chassis of the vehicle, preventing components such as stones and branches from scratching the chassis and the components arranged on the chassis; the support plate 30 is installed on the bottom guard plate 50.
[0052] Here, the support plate 30 and the bottom guard plate 50 are fixedly connected by integral molding or by threaded members. In this embodiment, the support plate 30 and the bottom guard plate 50 are integrally provided.
[0053] This application also provides a vehicle, including the vehicle front bumper assembly 100 of any one of the above embodiments.
[0054] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.
[0055] The above embodiments only represent several implementation manners of this application.
