Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an automobile accessory, in particular to an automobile front bumper with a winch installation function. Background Art
[0002] With the development of the automobile industry, as an important part of the automobile appearance design and safety performance, the automobile front bumper is gradually endowed with more functions, not just for protection and aesthetics. Especially in off-road vehicles and emergency rescue vehicles, a winch is usually required to be installed on the front bumper for winching and self-rescue operations when the vehicle gets stuck.
[0003] In the prior art, the installation of a winch usually requires connection to the vehicle body through an additional bracket. This installation method has the following several significant disadvantages:
[0004] 1. Complicated installation of the additional bracket: Most of the winch brackets in the prior art need to be fixed to the vehicle body by welding or bolts. This method is not only complicated to install, but also places high requirements on the vehicle body structure. Especially for some models with relatively complicated vehicle body structures, it is often very difficult to find a suitable installation position and fixing method.
[0005] 2. Influence of the welding process on the vehicle body: In the prior art, in order to firmly install the bracket on the vehicle body, welding operations are usually required on the vehicle body. Such welding operations may not only damage the vehicle body surface coating, resulting in a decrease in the anti-corrosion performance of the vehicle body, but also affect the overall strength structure of the vehicle body.
[0006] 3. Interference with other vehicle body components: The installation positions of the existing winch brackets on the vehicle body are limited, and it is often necessary to avoid other important components on the vehicle body, such as radiators, front suspension systems, etc. In this case, the winch bracket is prone to interference with these components, resulting in limited installation positions or even inability to install.
[0007] 4. High installation difficulty: For vehicles that need to install a winch later, the bracket designs in the prior art cannot be well compatible with the original vehicle structure. When installing, it is often necessary to modify the vehicle body, increasing the construction difficulty and time cost, and reducing the convenience and safety of installation.
[0008] 5. Poor winch installation position: Due to the fact that the installation position of the winch in the prior art cannot be fully matched with the vehicle body structure, the use effect of the winch is limited. During the winching process, the transmission path of the traction force is unreasonable, which may cause uneven stress on the winch and affect the winching effect. Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements. Summary of the Utility Model
