[0030] Reference will be made below to Figures 1 - 3 describe the combined instrument mounting structure 100 according to the first aspect embodiment of the present utility model.

[0031] According to the combined instrument mounting structure 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model, the application field of the combined instrument mounting structure 100 is not limited. In combination with Figure 1 , it can be applied in a vehicle. The combined instrument is mounted on the instrument panel 200 through the combined instrument mounting structure 100; or it can be applied in the industrial field. The combined instrument mounting structure 100 can mount the combined instrument on a production line to reflect various data in the production process in real time, assisting the operator to discover problems in time and make adjustments; it can also be applied in the medical field. The combined instrument mounting structure 100 can mount the combined instrument on a medical device to detect the vital signs of a patient, etc., providing a basis for a doctor to make a systematic and accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

[0032] For the sake of simplicity of description, hereinafter, the combined instrument mounting structure 100 is used to support the combined instrument on the vehicle 1000 as an example for elaboration, and the scenarios where the combined instrument mounting structure 100 is applied to other devices will not be elaborated.

[0033] According to the combined instrument mounting structure 100 of the embodiment of the present utility model, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 3As shown, it includes: a housing 10, a circuit board 20, and a display screen 30.

[0034] The housing 10 is the external protection structure of the combined instrument. Optionally, the housing 10 is made of high-strength and high-wear-resistant materials. For example, the housing 10 can be: an ABS plastic part, an aluminum alloy part, or a stainless steel part, etc.

[0035] The circuit board 20, as one of the components of the combined instrument, is used to integrate various electronic components and microprocessors, and is responsible for functions such as data acquisition, processing, storage, and display control.

[0036] The display screen 30 is the main interaction interface between the combined instrument and the user, and is used to display various parameters and information. Optionally, the display screen 30 is electrically connected to the circuit board 20 through a flexible circuit board 20 or a connector to achieve data transmission and display control.

[0037] To provide multi-faceted protection for the circuit board 20 and the display screen 30, as Figure 2 shown, the housing 10 includes a horizontal housing part 11 and a vertical housing part 12, and one end of the horizontal housing part 11 is connected to the vertical housing part 12. The circuit board 20 is horizontally arranged in the horizontal housing part 11. The display screen 30 is vertically arranged in the vertical housing part 12.

[0038] The horizontal housing part 11 is mainly used to protect and fix the circuit board 20. It is usually arranged horizontally or approximately horizontally, and its width is sufficient to cover the length of the circuit board 20 to protect the circuit board 20.

[0039] The vertical housing part 12 is mainly the part used to protect and fix the display screen 30. It is arranged perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the horizontal housing part 11, and the height of the vertical housing 10 matches the height of the display screen 30 to protect the display screen 30.

[0040] One side of the horizontal housing part 11 is connected to the vertical housing part 12 to form an integral frame structure, which can better fix the circuit board 20 and the display screen 30, and at the same time, ensure the connection stability between the two.

[0041] In some alternative embodiments, fixing devices or support structures are provided inside the horizontal housing part 11 and / or inside the vertical housing part 12. For example, positioning posts, fixing clips, etc., to prevent the circuit board 20 and the display screen 30 from shifting within the corresponding housing parts.

[0042] Combined with Figure 2, the combined instrument mounting structure 100 further includes: an upper connecting platform 40 provided above the lateral housing portion 11, a first fastening member 60 is provided on a side of the upper connecting platform 40 away from the vertical housing portion 12, in the extending direction of the circuit board 20, the total dimension of the first fastening member 60 and the upper connecting platform 40 is L1, the dimension of the circuit board 20 is L2, and L1 < L2; a lower connecting platform 50 provided below the lateral housing portion 11, and a connecting portion 511 is provided on the lower connecting platform 50.

[0043] The upper connecting platform 40 is mounted above the lateral housing portion 11. By placing the upper connecting platform 40 at the top of the lateral housing portion 11, a solid support platform is formed, which not only directly enhances the stability of the lateral housing portion 11, but also indirectly improves the structural strength of the entire circuit board 20 assembly. This ensures that the circuit board 20 can resist various external forces and vibrations after installation, and maintain the accuracy and reliability of its operation.

[0044] In addition, the upper connecting platform 40 can also enhance the connection stability between the lateral housing portion 11 and the vertical housing portion 12. Through the connection of the upper connecting platform 40 with the lateral housing portion 11 and the vertical housing portion 12, the relative shaking that may occur between the lateral housing portion 11 and the vertical housing portion 12 during the driving of the vehicle 1000, especially on bumpy roads or during high-speed turning, is effectively reduced. By reducing the relative shaking between the lateral housing portion 11 and the vertical housing portion 12, not only the use reliability of the circuit board 20 and the display screen 30 can be ensured, but also the connection between the two is not affected, thereby extending the overall service life of the combined instrument.

[0045] According to the combined instrument mounting structure 100 of some embodiments of the present invention, the upper connecting platform 40 is formed by protruding upward from the upper side wall of the lateral housing portion 11.

[0046] First of all, from the perspective of structural strength, since the upper connecting platform 40 extends naturally from the upper side wall of the lateral housing portion 11, there is no additional interface or seam between the two. This connection greatly enhances the integrity and connection stability of the lateral housing portion 11 and the vertical housing portion 12, so that during the driving of the vehicle 1000, whether facing bumpy roads or complex working conditions such as high-speed turning, the overall stability of the housing 10 can be maintained, and the risk of damage to the combined instrument caused by vibration or impact is reduced.

[0047] Secondly, from the perspective of manufacturing process, the design of the upper connecting platform 40 formed by directly protruding from the upper side wall of the lateral housing portion 11 simplifies the production and assembly process. Traditionally, if the upper connecting platform 40 is an independent component, additional assembly steps are required, which not only increases the manufacturing cost, but also may introduce assembly errors. By adopting this integrated design, the upper connecting platform 40 can be directly formed while manufacturing the lateral housing portion 11, improving the production efficiency and product consistency.

[0048] In addition, from the perspective of appearance, the integrated design of the upper connecting platform 40 and the transverse shell 11 also makes the installation structure of the entire combination instrument more compact. While the upper connecting platform 40 serves as the top support of the circuit board 20, it is also naturally integrated into the overall shape of the transverse shell 11, without any abrupt feeling, which improves the overall consistency.

[0049] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the combination meter installation structure 100 is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the upper connecting platform 40 includes: an upper connecting vertical wall 41 and an upper street top wall.

[0050] The lower end of the upper vertical wall 41 is connected to the upper side wall of the horizontal shell portion 11, and the first buckle 60 is connected to the upper vertical wall 41. One end of the upper top wall 42 is connected to the upper end of the upper vertical wall 41, and the other end of the upper top wall 42 is gradually reduced in the direction toward the vertical shell portion 12. The distance from the circuit board 20.

[0051] The upper connecting wall 41 serves as a supporting part of the upper connecting platform 40, and its lower end is firmly connected to the upper side wall of the transverse shell portion 11, providing a certain vertical support for the entire upper connecting platform 40. This ensures the connection stability between the transverse shell portion 11 and the vertical shell portion 12, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the circuit board 20 and the display screen 30 during the driving process of the vehicle 1000.

[0052] The first buckle is connected to the upper connecting wall 41. This design facilitates the upper connecting platform 40 to be quickly and accurately installed on the instrument panel 200 by the buckle method of the first buckle 60. The buckle connection of the first buckle 60 not only simplifies the installation process, but also improves the installation efficiency and stability of the combination instrument mounting structure 100.

[0053] When the first fastener 60 is connected to the instrument panel 200 of the vehicle 1000, it can achieve stable connection of the upper connecting platform 40 in the horizontal direction, and effectively increase the connection area between the middle part of the housing 10 (i.e., the main part of the instrument panel mounting structure 100) and the instrument panel 200 of the vehicle 1000, thereby enhancing the overall stability and vibration resistance of the instrument panel on the instrument panel 200. During the driving process of the vehicle 1000, even if it encounters bumps or vibrations, the shaking of the instrument panel on the instrument panel 200 can be effectively reduced, thereby protecting the internal circuit board 20 and other sensitive components from damage, and ensuring the normal operation of the instrument panel.

[0054] In some alternative embodiments, there are multiple first fastening members 60, and the multiple first fastening members 60 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the upper connecting platform 40. By arranging the multiple first fastening members 60 at intervals along the width direction of the upper connecting platform 40, the force application points of the upper connecting platform 40 on the instrument panel 200 can be dispersed. This way of dispersing the force makes the force borne by each first fastening member 60 more balanced, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the upper connecting platform 40 caused by excessive force at a single point. At the same time, the cooperative effect of the multiple first fastening members 60 also enhances the connection stability between the upper connecting platform 40 and the instrument panel 200, and even when the vehicle 1000 encounters large vibrations or impacts during driving, the connection can remain firm.

[0055] In some alternative embodiments, the connection between the first fastening member 60 and the upper connecting platform 40 is detachable. Specifically, due to the diversity and complexity of the vehicle 1000 market, the sizes, shapes, and installation conditions of the instrument panels 200 of different vehicle models may vary significantly. Therefore, by providing multiple first fastening members 60 and making the connection between these fastening members and the upper connecting platform 40 detachable, it is possible to flexibly select to use all or part of the fastening members according to the requirements of the specific vehicle model and installation environment.

[0056] For example, on some instrument panels 200 that require wider support or higher stability, all of these first fastening members 60 can be used. Through their tight connection with the instrument panel 200, a stable support is provided for the combined instrument. While on some instrument panels 200 with limited space or special installation conditions, only some of the fastening members can be selected for installation to save space and meet specific installation requirements.

[0057] In addition, the detachable connection design also facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement work. When it is necessary to disassemble the combined instrument for maintenance or upgrade, the first fastening members 60 can be easily removed one by one without damaging the entire installation structure. Similarly, when installing a new combined instrument, the appropriate number of fastening members can also be selected and installed according to the need to achieve fast and accurate installation.

[0058] One end of the upper connecting top wall 42 is connected to the upper end of the upper connecting vertical wall 41, and the other end gradually reduces the distance from the circuit board 20 in the direction towards the vertical shell portion 12. In this way, the upper connecting top wall 42 forms a relatively inclined top structure.

[0059] After the combined instrument is installed, the inclined top portion of the upper connecting top wall 42 can closely fit against the edge of the installation position, forming a certain limit for the combined instrument installation structure 100. During the driving of the vehicle 1000, if it encounters bumps or vibrations, etc., the upper connecting top wall 42 can use its inclined surface to abut against the installation position, thereby increasing the positioning effect on the combined instrument and improving the stability of the entire combined instrument, providing a certain guarantee for the long-term stable operation of the combined instrument.

[0060] According to the combined instrument installation structure 100 of some embodiments of the present utility model, the upper connection top wall 42 is connected to the vertical shell portion 12.

[0061] The connection between the upper connection top wall 42 and the vertical shell portion 12 not only improves the stability of the relative position between the upper connection top wall 42 and the vertical shell portion 12, but also enhances the strength of the combined instrument installation structure 100.

[0062] According to the combined instrument installation structure 100 of some embodiments of the present utility model, it further includes a first fastener 70. The first fastener 70 passes through the transverse shell portion 11 and the circuit board 20 to fix the circuit board 20.

[0063] During the installation process, the first fastener 70 is first positioned in a preset hole in the transverse shell portion 11. Subsequently, the circuit board 20 is placed in an appropriate position so that the corresponding holes on the circuit board 20 are aligned with the holes in the transverse shell portion 11. Then, the first fastener 70 is further tightened or pressed so that it simultaneously penetrates and firmly connects the transverse shell portion 11 and the circuit board 20. By providing the first fastener 70 in this way, a mechanical locking effect can be achieved on the circuit board 20 and the transverse shell portion 11.

[0064] In some alternative embodiments, a part of the lower side wall of the transverse shell portion 11 bulges upward to form a fixing boss 112; corresponding through holes 201 are provided on the circuit board 20. Corresponding threaded holes 111 are provided on the upper side wall of the transverse shell portion 11. The first fastener 70 passes through the fixing boss 112 and the through hole 201 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 111.

[0065] In the above technical solution, a part of the lower side wall of the transverse shell portion 11 bulges upward to form a fixing boss 112. This fixing boss 112 can provide a connection point for the first fastener 70 and improve the alignment accuracy of the first fastener 70.

[0066] Through holes 201 are provided at positions on the circuit board 20 corresponding to the fixing boss 112. These through holes 201 cooperate with the fixing boss 112 so that the first fastener 70 can pass through the fixing boss 112 from one side of the circuit board 20 and is finally fixed in the threaded hole 111 of the transverse shell portion 11. Optionally, the diameter of the through hole 201 should be slightly larger than the diameter of the fastener to facilitate alignment during installation.

[0067] On the upper side wall of the horizontal housing portion 11, corresponding threaded holes 111 are provided. The existence of the threaded holes 111 enables the first fastening member 70 (such as a screw, bolt or screw) to pass through the through holes 201 on the circuit board 20 and the fixing bosses 112, and then be threadedly connected to the threaded holes 111 of the horizontal housing portion 11. Since threaded connection is a common mechanical connection method, it can provide strong fastening force to ensure the stability of the circuit board 20 within the horizontal housing portion 11.

[0068] The first fastening member 70 can be a screw, bolt, screw or other threaded fasteners. The first fastening member 70 sequentially passes through the through holes 201 on the circuit board 20 and the fixing bosses 112 from one side of the circuit board 20, and finally is screwed into the threaded holes 111 on the horizontal housing portion 11, ultimately realizing the stable connection between the circuit board 20 and the horizontal housing portion 11.

[0069] During installation, first place the circuit board 20 at the fixed position within the horizontal housing portion 11, ensuring that the through holes 201 on the circuit board 20 are aligned with the fixing bosses 112. Then, pass the first fastening member 70 through the through holes 201 on the circuit board 20 and the fixing bosses 112, and screw it into the threaded holes 111 of the horizontal housing portion 11 until it is tightly fastened. Such a design can not only ensure the stable installation of the circuit board 20, but also facilitate disassembly and maintenance when necessary.

[0070] According to the combined instrument installation structure 100 of some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figures 2 - 3 shown, at one end of the horizontal housing portion 11 away from the vertical housing portion 12, a second fastening member 80 is provided.

[0071] The second fastening member 80 is provided at the end of the horizontal housing portion 11, that is, on the side away from the vertical housing portion 12. The second fastening member 80 can provide an additional fixing point to ensure that the position of the horizontal housing portion 11 on the instrument panel 200 is more stable.

[0072] In some alternative embodiments, there are multiple second fastening members 80, and the multiple second fastening members 80 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the horizontal housing portion 11. By arranging the multiple second fastening members 80 at intervals along the width direction of the horizontal housing portion 11, the force application points of the horizontal housing portion 11 on the instrument panel 200 can be dispersed. This way of dispersing the force makes the force borne by each second fastening member 80 more balanced, thereby reducing the risk of damage caused by excessive force at a single point. At the same time, the cooperative action of the multiple second fastening members 80 also enhances the connection stability between the horizontal housing portion 11 and the instrument panel 200, and can maintain the firmness of the connection even when the vehicle 1000 encounters large vibrations or impacts during driving.

[0073] In some alternative embodiments, the second fastener 80 and the lateral housing portion 11 are detachably connected. Specifically, due to the diversity and complexity of the vehicle 1000 market, there may be significant differences in the size, shape, and installation conditions of the instrument panels 200 of different vehicle models. Therefore, by providing a plurality of second fasteners 80 that are detachably connected to the lateral housing portion 11, it is possible to flexibly select to use all or part of the second fasteners 80 according to the requirements of the specific vehicle model and installation environment.

[0074] For example, on some instrument panels 200 that require wider support or higher stability, all of these second fasteners 80 can be used. Through their tight connection with the instrument panel 200, a firm support is provided for the combined instrument. On the other hand, on some instrument panels 200 with limited space or special installation conditions, only some of the second fasteners 80 can be selected for installation to save space and meet specific installation requirements.

[0075] In addition, the design of the detachable connection also facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement work. When it is necessary to disassemble the combined instrument for maintenance or upgrade, the second fasteners 80 can be easily removed one by one without damaging the entire installation structure. Similarly, when installing a new combined instrument, the appropriate number of fasteners can also be selected and installed according to the need to achieve fast and accurate installation.

[0076] According to the combined instrument installation structure 100 of some embodiments of the present utility model, as Figure 2 shown, a wire passing interface 113 is provided at one end of the lateral housing portion 11 away from the vertical housing portion 12.

[0077] By providing the wire passing interface 113, external lines can be conveniently connected to the inside of the lateral housing portion 11 and then connected to the corresponding interfaces on the circuit board 20. This design can optimize the layout of the lines on the one hand, reducing the situation of messy lines, and on the other hand, improve the reliability and safety of the line connection.

[0078] Optionally, a washer is provided at the wire passing interface 113. When the line passes through the wire passing interface 113, the washer will tightly wrap around the line, forming a protective layer. This protective layer can buffer the direct contact between the line and the interface, reducing the wear caused by friction. At the same time, the elasticity of the washer can also adapt to the small deformations of the line due to factors such as temperature changes and vibrations, maintaining the stability and reliability of the connection. In addition, the washer also has a certain sealing effect. It can effectively prevent external impurities such as dust and moisture from entering the inside of the lateral housing portion 11 through the wire passing interface 113 and causing damage to sensitive components such as the circuit board 20, which helps to extend the service life of the device and improve its working performance.

[0079] According to the combined instrument mounting structure 100 of some embodiments of the present utility model, the housing 10 and the upper connecting platform 40 are integrally formed shells, and the horizontal shell portion 11, the vertical shell portion 12 and the inside of the upper connecting platform 40 are in internal communication. The lower connecting platform 50 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal shell portion 11. The lower connecting platform 50 includes at least two connecting ears 51 arranged horizontally, and each connecting ear 51 is provided with a connecting portion 511.

[0080] The housing 10 and the upper connecting platform 40 are made of an integrally formed part, which can simplify the production process, reduce the assembly steps between components, and can also improve the overall structural strength and sealing performance. The integrally formed part means that during the production process, the materials (such as plastics, metals, etc.) of the housing 10 and the upper connecting platform 40 are simultaneously formed through processes such as injection molding and die casting to ensure a seamless connection between the two.

[0081] Among them, the horizontal shell portion 11, the vertical shell portion 12 and the inside of the upper connecting platform 40 are in internal communication with each other. Such a design with internal communication facilitates the layout and connection of internal electrical components, circuits and pipelines. Furthermore, it is beneficial to the reasonable planning of the internal space of the combined instrument mounting structure 100, making the wiring more concise and orderly, and reducing the impact of some messy circuits on heat dissipation, maintenance and other aspects.
