Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery hood mounting structures, in particular to a hood gas spring mounting bracket and a hood gas spring mechanism. Background Art
[0002] Some agricultural machinery, such as tractors, utilize gas springs to assist in opening the hood. One end of the hood gas spring is connected to the hood, and the other to a fixed structure within the cabin. When the cabin is opened, the gas spring extends, assisting in the upward tilt of the hood. The gas spring's expansion and contraction create a certain amount of oscillation, so when reserving mounting points for the gas spring, sufficient wiggle room must be provided to avoid structural interference. Due to space constraints within the vehicle cabin, the space available for the hood gas spring is extremely limited.
[0003] The original installation structure removed a lifting eye from the engine and bolted a bent sheet metal bracket to the same location. The hood gas spring was hinged to the bent sheet metal bracket. The loss of a lifting eye made installation more difficult, and later engine disassembly and assembly during vehicle maintenance and modification was more difficult, increasing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content

[0052] Furthermore, a second reinforcing plate 11 is provided in the middle portion of the lower side of the platform plate 2 , and the second reinforcing plate 11 is connected to the mounting plate 1 .
[0053] The strength and rigidity between the platform plate 2 and the mounting plate 1 are increased, and the reliability of the gas spring installation and the engine 21 hoisting is improved; the second reinforcing plate 11 and the first reinforcing plate 10 respectively reinforce the middle and edge of the platform plate 2, which is not easy to deform, has a large load-bearing capacity and a long service life.
