Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of gas cylinder storage and transportation, and particularly relates to a side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly. Background Art
[0002] During the transportation of gas cylinders, the traditional gas cylinder arrangement method is to place them behind the cab. Placing gas cylinders behind the cab will occupy a relatively large space of the rear trailer, thus reducing the volume of the cargo box and affecting the economy of the vehicle. In addition, the arrangement method of placing gas cylinders behind the cab has a relatively high center of gravity, which will have a certain impact on the overall vehicle stability. The existing technology is to fix the gas cylinders on both sides of the vehicle frame. Patent 2021233045634 discloses a side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly. Patent 2018221292164 discloses a lightweight side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly. Most of the existing solutions adopt the method of welding square tubes and steel plates. This method will waste a lot of raw materials during the production process, resulting in a relatively high cost. Moreover, welding will make the weight of the bracket itself larger, making it easier to generate stress concentration points, increasing the possibility of bracket failure, and the production efficiency of welding is low, which cannot meet the requirements of mass delivery. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly.
[0004] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows: A side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly, the bracket main body is an integrally formed steel plate, the side and bottom of the bracket main body are fixed to the vehicle body, one side of the bracket main body close to the gas cylinder is arc-shaped, which matches the gas cylinder, and both ends of the arc are connected by a strap.
[0005] In the above-mentioned side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly, a rubber pad is provided on one side of the bracket main body close to the gas cylinder.
[0006] In the above-mentioned side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly, one end of the strap is fixed to the bracket main body through a fixing bolt, and the other end of the strap is fixed to the bracket main body through a pin shaft and a check pin.
[0007] In the above-mentioned side-mounted gas cylinder bracket assembly, several mounting holes are provided in the middle of the bracket main body.
[0008] Advantages of the utility model:
[0009] (1) Side-mounted gas cylinders can effectively utilize the space on the side of the vehicle frame, improve the loading capacity of the cargo box. The structure of the utility model is simple, the design is lightweight, with the characteristics of high load-bearing and low self-weight. It can firmly fix the gas cylinder on the side of the vehicle frame, solve the problems of difficult installation and unreliable connection of side-mounted gas cylinders, and greatly improve the space utilization rate of the whole vehicle.
[0010] (2) The main body of the utility model is integrally formed by bending high-strength steel plates, reducing welding, lowering stress concentration points, having a simple structure and being easy to process, with strong load-bearing capacity and relatively light self-weight. One end of the strap is connected to the base through a pin, and the other end adopts a high-strength bolt double-nut anti-loosening structure, which is fixed reliably and facilitates the installation of the gas cylinder.
[0011] (3) The utility model has the characteristics of high strength, light self-weight, less welding, less stress concentration, simple structure, convenient processing, low cost, and being applicable to a variety of gas cylinders. Description of the Drawings

[0015] The marks in the figure are: 1 - support main body; 2 - check pin; 3 - pin shaft; 4 - strap; 5 - fixing bolt; 6 - rubber pad; 7 - gas cylinder. Specific Embodiment
[0016] A side-mounted gas cylinder support assembly, as Figure 1 shown. After the support main body 1 is laser cut, it is integrally formed by machine bending. Nine mounting holes are opened in the middle of the main support 1 for fixing the support to the vehicle frame. The side of the support main body 1 adjacent to the gas cylinder is arc-shaped, and this arc is ensured by laser cutting to better fit the surface of the gas cylinder. Both ends of the arc are connected by a strap 4, and the strap 4 is tightened by tightening the fixing bolt 5, so as to fix the gas cylinder on the arc surface of the support and connect the strap 4 to the support main body 1. The other end of the strap 4 is fixed to the support main body 1 through the pin shaft 3 and the check pin 2, as Figure 2 shown. Rubber pads are provided on the surfaces of the support main body 1 and the strap 4 in contact with the gas cylinder to reduce the vibration of the gas cylinder.
[0017] When in use, bolts pass through the nine mounting holes on the support main body 1 to fix the entire support assembly to the vehicle frame girder. Set the rubber pads on the arc surface and place the gas cylinder on the arc surface. The pin shaft 3 passes through one end of the strap 4 and also through the support main body 1, and the check pin 2 is used to fix one end of the strap to the support main body 1. Then, the fixing bolt 5 passes through the mounting hole provided below the support main body 1, and the bolt is continuously tightened to press the strap against the gas cylinder, so that the gas cylinder is closely attached to the support main body. Usually, one gas cylinder 7 is used in cooperation with two groups of supports, which can effectively fix the gas cylinder, as Figure 3 shown.
