Those skilled in the art can easily understand the other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
[0024] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments only schematically illustrate the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, only the components related to the present invention are shown in the illustrations, rather than being drawn according to the number, shape, and size of the components in actual implementation. The type, quantity, and proportion of each component in actual implementation can be arbitrarily changed, and the component layout type may also be more complex.
[0025] In the following description, a large number of details are explored to provide a more thorough explanation of the embodiments of the present disclosure. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented without these specific details. In other embodiments, well-known structures and devices are shown in the form of block diagrams rather than in detail to avoid making the embodiments of the present disclosure difficult to understand.
[0026] It should be noted that the connecting portion is located in front of the support frame, and the first connecting surface is located behind the support frame.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 , the present invention provides a mounting bracket for an automotive carbon canister, including: a support frame 1, on which there are provided a connecting portion 2, a first connecting surface 3, and a second connecting surface 4 for fixing, the first connecting surface 3 and the second connecting surface 4 are adjacent; a clamping groove 5 for connecting with the automotive carbon canister is provided on the first connecting surface 3; a fixing hole for connecting with the automotive carbon canister is provided on the second connecting surface 4.
[0028] In an embodiment of the present application, specifically, the mounting bracket includes a support frame 1, which is a cuboid structure enclosed by a plate-shaped material. There are provided a connecting portion 2, a first connecting surface 3, and a second connecting surface 4 on the support frame 1. The connecting portion 2 is used to fix the support frame 1 on the automotive round tube beam. The first connecting surface 3 and the second connecting surface 4 provided on the support frame 1 are used to fix the automotive carbon canister on the support frame 1. The first connecting surface 3 and the second connecting surface 4 are adjacent surfaces. The first connecting surface 3 is a side surface of the support frame 1 and is vertically arranged. A clamping groove 5 is provided on the first connecting surface 3, and the clamping groove 5 is used for the automotive carbon canister to be clamped. The top of the clamping groove 5 is a limiting clamping edge. A fixing hole is provided on the second connecting surface 4, and the automotive carbon canister is fixed on the fixing hole through bolts. The double fixation avoids the risk of the carbon canister falling off. And because the support frame is fixed on the automotive round tube beam and the carbon canister is arranged at a relatively high position, it can effectively prevent the carbon canister from being impacted by splashes.
[0029] The connecting portion 2 is an inwardly concave arc-shaped welding surface, and a plurality of welding points are provided on the connecting portion 2.
