In this way, the vertical space of the vehicle is rationally utilized, and the longitudinal layout space of the vehicle is reduced to adapt to vehicles with a smaller front and rear wheelbase. The overall structure is simple, disassembly and assembly are convenient, and the processing cost is low.
[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a battery mounting rack 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a mounting rack body 1 and a fixing structure.
[0036] The mounting frame body 1 is provided with a connecting portion 1315, which is used to connect to the vehicle frame, so that the mounting frame body 1 can be connected to the vehicle frame. The mounting frame body 1 can be directly connected to the vehicle frame through the connecting portion 1315, and the two can be detachably connected by bolts and other connecting parts. The connection method is simple and easy to assemble and disassemble. Specifically, the mounting frame body 1 can be connected to the longitudinal beam of the vehicle frame and can occupy the side space of the vehicle frame.

In addition, the mounting frame body 1 can be indirectly connected to the vehicle frame, that is, a transition connection structure can be set between the mounting frame body 1 and the vehicle frame, and the battery mounting frame 100 can also be installed. Its setting method is diverse and can be flexibly selected according to the actual space layout.
[0037] The mounting frame body 1 is formed with at least two mounting spaces 11 for mounting batteries. The at least two mounting spaces 11 are sequentially distributed along the up and down directions, and a support surface 121 is formed at the bottom of each mounting space 11 .
[0038] Specifically, the battery mounting rack 100 is used to connect and fix batteries. The mounting rack body 1 is a basic frame structure, and at least two mounting spaces 11 are formed inside it, both for installing batteries, and at least two mounting spaces 11 are distributed in sequence along the up and down directions, that is, at least two batteries can be installed along the up and down directions, and a support surface 121 is formed at the bottom of each mounting space 11 to support the battery in each mounting space 11 to effectively carry the battery, wherein the mounting space 11 can be a square cavity, a circular cavity, etc., and can be set according to the shape of the battery, and the mounting space 11 can be two, three, four, etc., that is, two batteries, three batteries, four batteries, etc. can be installed to meet different usage requirements.
[0039] The fixing structure includes a connecting rod 22 and a pressing plate 21 . The pressing plate 21 is installed on the top of the battery. The connecting rod 22 is used to penetrate and connect the mounting frame body 1 and the pressing plate 21 , and the pressing plate 21 presses the battery toward the supporting surface 121 .
[0040] Specifically, the connecting rod 22 and the pressure plate 21 of the fixed structure are used to fix the battery to the mounting frame body 1, wherein the pressure plate 21 is installed on the top of the battery, that is, the pressure plate 21 is placed on the top of the battery to apply downward pressure to the battery. In actual design, the pressure plate 21 can be extended and distributed along the width direction of the battery. The pressure plate 21 can press the battery along its width direction, and one end of the connecting rod 22 is connected to the pressure plate 21, and the other end is connected to the mounting frame body 1, so that the battery is pressed toward the support surface 121 through the connecting rod 22 and the pressure plate 21 to achieve fixation of the battery. The connection method is simple and the installation is reliable.
[0041] Furthermore, at least two batteries are placed on the support surface 121 of an installation space 11 in the upper and lower directions respectively, and then the pressure plate 21 is pressed on the top of the battery, and the pressure plate 21 is connected to the mounting frame body 1 through the connecting rod 22, so that each battery is pressed toward the corresponding support surface 121, and the connection and fixation of at least two batteries can be achieved. This installation method can make the connection between the battery and the mounting frame body 1 more firmly and reliably, avoid the battery from moving or falling off, and ensure the stable and reliable operation of the battery.
[0042] Therefore, through the above-mentioned arrangement, at least two batteries can be installed in the up and down directions at one time to realize the integrated installation of at least two batteries, and the battery mounting frame 100 is connected to the vehicle frame. In this way, the arrangement of at least two batteries can occupy the vertical space of the vehicle. Compared with the battery mounting structure arranged side by side longitudinally, the battery mounting frame 100 of this embodiment can reduce the longitudinal arrangement space of the vehicle, can be adapted to vehicles with smaller front and rear wheelbases, and can improve space utilization. The structure of the pressure plate 21 is simple. Compared with stamping parts, there is no need to set up complex molds, which improves the production efficiency of the vehicle. The overall structure is simple, easy to disassemble and assemble, and the processing cost is low.
[0043] In some embodiments, the mounting frame body 1 includes a connecting structure 12 and at least two mounting brackets 13 , two adjacent mounting brackets 13 are spaced apart and connected by the connecting structure 12 , a plurality of mounting spaces 11 are defined between the two adjacent mounting brackets 13 , and a support surface 121 is formed on the connecting structure 12 .
[0044] Specifically, at least two mounting brackets 13 are spaced apart in sequence along one direction, and two adjacent mounting brackets 13 are connected by a connecting structure 12. At least two mounting brackets 13 can be connected to form a mounting frame body 1, and the connecting structure 12 can connect and support the two adjacent mounting brackets 13, so that the connection between the two adjacent mounting brackets 13 can be firm and reliable, thereby improving the structural strength of the mounting frame body 1.
[0045] Among them, after at least two mounting brackets 13 are installed, the connection structure 12 can be used to separate the two adjacent mounting brackets 13 into multiple installation spaces 11, and a support surface 121 is formed on the upper side of each connecting structure 12. In this way, two or more batteries can be placed on the support surface 121 of the connecting structure 12 respectively, and the connecting structure 12 and the pressure plate 21 can be connected by a connecting rod 22, so that the top and bottom of the battery can be pressed against the pressure plate 21 and the connecting structure 12 respectively, which can improve the installation strength of the battery.
[0046] In actual design, the connection structure 12 can be a connection plate, etc. The connection structure 12 can be detachably connected to the mounting bracket 13 by connecting members such as bolts, or can be connected by welding. Figure 4 As shown, one end of the connecting rod 22 is provided with an external thread, and the other end is provided with a nut 221, and as shown Figure 3 As shown, the pressing plate 21 is provided with two first connecting holes 211, and Figure 1 As shown, the connecting structure 12 is provided with two second connecting holes 124, the two first connecting holes 211 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two second connecting holes 124, the two connecting rods 22 extend in the up and down directions, and the two ends of the two connecting rods 22 are respectively threadedly engaged with the connecting structure 12 and the pressure plate 21 to increase the tensioning force of the connecting rods 22 on the connecting structure 12 and the pressure plate 21, thereby improving the installation strength of the battery.
[0047] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 13 includes a first support tube 131 and a second support tube 132, the first support tube 131 includes a first tube portion 1311 and a second tube portion 1312, the second support tube 132 is distributed parallel to and spaced apart from the second tube portion 1312, one end of the first tube portion 1311 is connected to the second support tube 132 and the other end is bent and connected to the second tube portion 1312.
[0048] Specifically, the first support tube 131 includes a first tube portion 1311 and a second tube portion 1312 connected to each other, wherein the second support tube 132 can be configured as a straight tube, and the first support tube 131 can be configured as a curved tube, and the second support tube 132 and the second tube portion 1312 are arranged in parallel, and the two are spaced apart and distributed in one direction, and the spacing between them is greater than the length of the battery to meet the battery installation space 11 requirements. Figure 1 As shown, the second support tube 132 is located on the upper side of the first tube portion 1311 and is connected to one end of the first tube portion 1311, and the other end of the first tube portion 1311 is bent and connected to the second tube portion 1312, and the second support tube 132 and the second tube portion 1312 are both located on the same side of the first tube portion 1311.
[0049] The second support tube 132 is parallel and spaced apart from the second tube portion 1312, so that the installation space 11 forms an open side here, and the battery can be installed from the open side. Figure 1 As shown, the connecting portion 1315 is provided on the second tube portion 1312 , so that the second tube portion 1312 can be connected to the frame through the connecting portion 1315 to achieve the connection and fixation of the battery to the frame, which is simple to install and easy to assemble and disassemble.
[0050] Among them, the first support tube 131 and the second support tube 132 can both be made of standard square tubes and cylindrical tubes, and the second support tube 132 and the first tube part 1311 can be connected by welding. The installation is firm and reliable, and does not take up much space for the connection of the tubes, which is conducive to leaving more space for the installation of batteries. The second support tube 132 and the first tube part 1311 can be connected by bolts and other connectors. The setting method is diverse and can be flexibly selected according to actual conditions. It has a simple structure and low material cost, which reduces the setting cost of the mounting bracket 13, and the structure is lightweight, meeting the lightweight design requirements.
[0051] There are multiple connection structures 12 . The lowest one among the multiple connection structures 12 is connected to the first tube portion 1311 , and the remaining connection structures 12 are each connected to the second support tube 132 and the second tube portion 1312 .
[0052] Specifically, multiple connecting structures 12 are distributed in sequence along the up and down directions, wherein the connecting structure 12 located at the bottom is connected to the first tube portion 1311 of two adjacent mounting brackets 13, and each of the remaining connecting structures 12 is connected to the second support tube 132 and the second tube portion 1312 of two adjacent mounting brackets 13. In this way, the bottoms of the two adjacent mounting brackets 13 are connected and supported by the connecting structure 12, and are connected and supported by multiple connecting structures 12 at multiple positions in the vertical direction, which can improve the structural strength of the mounting frame body 1, and its layout is reasonable and simple.
[0053] Therefore, after at least two mounting brackets 13 are installed, the space between two adjacent mounting brackets 13 can be divided into multiple mounting spaces 11 through multiple connecting structures 12. In this way, two or more batteries can be placed on the support surface 121 of the connecting structure 12 respectively, and then the connecting structure 12 is connected to the pressure plate 21 through the connecting rod 22 to realize the installation of multiple batteries.
[0054] Among them, the mounting brackets 13 can be two, three, four, etc., and the connecting structures 12 can be two, three, etc. In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are two mounting brackets 13 and two connecting structures 12 , that is, there are two mounting spaces 11 . In this way, two batteries can be connected to the mounting spaces 11 in the up and down directions respectively.
[0055] In some embodiments, the first support tube 131 further includes an arc-shaped tube portion 1313 , which is connected between the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 , and makes the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 perpendicular to each other.
[0056] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the arc-shaped tube portion 1313 is connected between the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312, and the bending connection between the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 can be realized, and the arc-shaped tube portion 1313 can be constructed as a quarter-circular arc tube, and the center of the arc-shaped tube portion 1313 is located on the side of the second tube portion 1312 close to the first tube portion 1311. In this way, after the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 are connected by the arc-shaped tube portion 1313, the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 can be vertically distributed, and the second tube portion 1312 and the second support tube 132 both extend in the up and down directions, and the first tube portion 1311 can extend in an extension direction perpendicular to the second tube portion 1312.
[0057] Among them, when processing, the first support tube 131 can be bent using a straight tube, and the first support tube 131 can be formed in one go, and the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 are vertically connected, making the processing process simpler and more convenient, which is beneficial to improving the production efficiency of the battery mounting rack 100 and low in cost.
[0058] Therefore, by setting the arc-shaped tube portion 1313, an arc-shaped feature can be formed at the connection between the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312, which can avoid other structures in the vehicle. It occupies less space and can avoid interference with other structures. The arc-shaped tube portion 1313 can make the connection between the first tube portion 1311 and the second tube portion 1312 smoother.
[0059] In some embodiments, the extension length of the second support tube 132 is less than the extension length of the second tube portion 1312. Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the arrangement of the first support tube 131 and the second support tube 132 is suitable for installing two batteries, the extension length of the second support tube 132 is greater than the height of one battery, and the extension length of the second tube portion 1312 of the first support tube 131 is greater than the extension length of the second support tube 132, and one battery can be accommodated between the top of the second support tube 132 and the top of the second tube portion 1312, that is, the distance between the top of the second support tube 132 and the top of the second tube portion 1312 can be the same as the extension length of one second support tube 132. In this way, two batteries can be installed vertically in sequence, and the extension length of the second support tube 132 is shorter, which can save the material cost of the mounting bracket 13 and reduce the overall weight of the mounting bracket 13.
[0060] It should be noted that the extension lengths of the first support tube 131 and the second support tube 132 can be adjusted or changed to adapt to batteries and urea tanks of different capacities, thereby improving the level of commonality.
[0061] Among the plurality of connection structures 12 , the topmost connection structure 12 has one end connected to the side wall of the second tube portion 1312 and the other end supported by the upper end of the second support tube 132 .
[0062] Specifically, the topmost connecting structure 12 is connected to the second supporting tubes 132 and the second tube portions 1312 of the two adjacent mounting brackets 13, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, one end of the connecting structure 12 is connected to the upper ends of the two second support tubes 132, and the other end of the connecting structure 12 is connected to the side wall of the second tube portion 1312. In this way, the upper parts of the two adjacent mounting brackets 13 can be connected and supported by the connecting structure 12, and multiple connecting structures 12 can be used to connect and support at multiple positions in the vertical direction, which can improve the structural strength of the mounting frame body 1, and its layout is reasonable and simple.
[0063] Thus, through the above-mentioned connection method, the connection structure 12 and the mounting bracket 13 can be connected at four points, thereby improving the connection strength between the two and enhancing the installation strength of the battery.
[0064] In some embodiments, the second tube portion 1312 is sleeved with a reinforcing sleeve 1314 , the connecting portion 1315 is configured as a connecting fixing hole, and the mounting bracket 13 is detachably connected to the vehicle frame via a connector penetrating the reinforcing sleeve 1314 and the connecting fixing hole.
[0065] Among them, the reinforcing sleeve 1314 has a reinforcing effect. The second tube portion 1312 is sleeved with the reinforcing sleeve 1314, which can improve the structural strength of the local area of the second tube portion 1312, that is, it can increase the connection strength of the connecting part, thereby improving the installation strength between the second tube portion 1312 and the frame, so as to improve the stability of the battery installation.
[0066] Specifically, the reinforcing sleeve 1314 can be constructed as a steel sleeve, which can be made of Q345 steel pipe to improve the self-strength of the reinforcing sleeve, and the second pipe portion 1312 is provided with a connecting hole, and the reinforcing sleeve 1314 is sleeved in the connecting hole and connected to the second pipe portion 1312 by welding to improve the connection strength between the reinforcing sleeve 1314 and the second pipe portion 1312, and a connecting portion 1315 is formed in the reinforcing sleeve 1314, and the connecting portion 1315 can be constructed as a connecting fixing hole, and the connecting piece can be a connecting bolt, which is passed through the reinforcing sleeve 1314 and the connecting fixing hole is threadedly connected to the connecting hole of the frame. The connection method is simple and easy to install.
[0067] Each second tube portion 1312 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing sleeves 1314. Correspondingly, each reinforcing sleeve 1314 is provided with a connecting fixing hole. In this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, each second tube portion 1312 is provided with two reinforcing sleeves 1314 . Thus, the second tube portion 1312 is connected to the vehicle frame through a plurality of connectors, thereby improving the strength and stability of the battery installation.
[0068] In some embodiments, a switch bracket 133 is further provided at the upper end of the second support tube 132. The switch bracket 133 is used to install the main power switch. Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the upper end of the second support tube 132 is connected to the connecting structure 12, and one end of the connecting structure 12 is connected to the switch bracket 133. The switch bracket 133 is provided with a connecting hole and is connected to the main power switch through connecting parts such as bolts.
