Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an automobile accessory, in particular to an aluminum automobile front bumper. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the automotive industry, the front bumper, as an important protective component of the car body, has a direct impact on the safety and aesthetics of the vehicle due to its design and material selection. Traditional front bumpers are mostly made of iron. Although iron front bumpers have certain strength and impact resistance, they also have some obvious disadvantages.

[0003] First, iron front bumpers are heavy. Due to the high density of iron, using an iron front bumper increases the overall weight of the vehicle. This not only negatively impacts fuel economy but also compromises handling and performance. In the modern automotive manufacturing trend toward lightweight design, the weight of an iron front bumper becomes a significant disadvantage.

[0004] Secondly, iron front bumpers are prone to rust. Iron has relatively poor corrosion resistance, especially in humid or rainy environments. Rusting can easily occur on the surface of iron front bumpers, which not only affects the vehicle's appearance but also weakens the bumper's structural strength, thereby reducing its protective function. While rusting can be slowed by spraying anti-rust paint or galvanizing, this treatment increases production costs and cannot completely eliminate the risk of rust. Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an aluminum automobile front bumper with a simple structure that conforms to the lightweight design trend of modern automobiles and can greatly improve the durability and service life of the front bumper.

[0018] 5. Several ventilation holes are provided on the crossbeam and reinforcement beam to facilitate air circulation and improve heat dissipation, especially suitable for high-temperature working environments. The ventilation design also reduces wind resistance of the front bumper, further improving the vehicle's fuel efficiency.

[0019] 6. A light trough with built-in lighting on the reinforcement beam illuminates the front bumper, providing additional driving safety. The light trough design cleverly embeds the lighting into the bumper structure, eliminating the risk of damage caused by externally mounted lighting while enhancing the bumper's aesthetics.

[0020] 7.

[0024] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. An aluminum automobile front bumper is characterized by comprising an outer frame formed by splicing together a plurality of aluminum frames 1, the outer frame being shaped like an "N" with an open bottom, a crossbeam 2 being transversely mounted on the bottom of the outer frame, and a reinforcing beam 3 being transversely mounted on the middle portion, the left and right ends of the crossbeam 2 and the reinforcing beam 3 being fixedly connected to the outer frame by a plurality of rivets 4.

[0025] The cross beam 2 and the reinforcing beam 3 are provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 5;

[0026] The reinforcing beam 3 is also provided with a lamp trough 6, in which a lamp 7 is installed;

[0027] A bracket 8 is provided on the back of the outer frame, and the bracket 8 is connected to the automobile body.

[0028] In one embodiment, the various sections of the aluminum frame 1 are fixed into an integrated structure by welding.

[0029] In one embodiment, connecting grooves 9 are provided on both sides of the back of the aluminum frame 1 , fixing bolts are embedded in the connecting grooves 9 , a connecting base 10 is provided on the bracket 8 , and the fixing bolts are connected to the connecting base 10 .

[0030] In one embodiment, the lamp trough 6 is arranged on the left and right sides of the reinforcing beam 3 , close to the outer frame.

[0031] In one embodiment, a panel 11 is provided at the front end of the lamp 7 , the panel 11 covers the outside of the lamp trough 6 , and a plurality of fixing screws pass through the panel 11 and are fixedly connected to the reinforcing beam 3 .

[0032] Working Principle: This aluminum front bumper is designed based on the principles of lightweight, corrosion resistance, and high strength. Its entire structure is made of aluminum to enhance vehicle safety and fuel economy. Its working principle and the synergistic effects of its components are as follows:

[0033] The front bumper of this utility model is constructed from an outer frame formed by joining several aluminum frames. The cross-section of the outer frame is an "N"-shaped structure with an open bottom. This design not only facilitates the installation of other components but also effectively withstands impacts from the front, providing robust protection. Furthermore, the individual sections of the outer frame are welded together to form a single structure. This not only achieves its desired shape but also ensures that the outer frame will not lose strength due to loose joints during impact, thereby enhancing its overall impact resistance.

[0034] Furthermore, in this case, the crossbeam 2 is installed horizontally at the bottom of the outer frame, and the reinforcing beam 3 is installed horizontally in the middle of the outer frame. Both are fixed to the left and right ends of the outer frame via rivets 4. The crossbeam and reinforcing beam not only enhance the structural stability of the bumper but also disperse and absorb external forces during a collision, reducing impact on the vehicle body and thus effectively protecting the vehicle and its passengers. The use of aluminum in the crossbeam and reinforcing beam allows them to maintain high strength while reducing overall weight, thereby improving the vehicle's fuel efficiency and handling performance. This is a technical advantage that is difficult to achieve with traditional iron bumpers.

[0035] In addition, the crossbeam and reinforcement beam are provided with a number of ventilation holes 5. These holes guide air circulation during vehicle operation, effectively improving heat dissipation within the bumper and preventing localized overheating. This ventilation design ensures the proper functioning of internal components, particularly in summer or during extended driving. Furthermore, the ventilation holes reduce air resistance, optimizing the vehicle's aerodynamic performance and further improving fuel economy.

[0036] In addition, the reinforcement beam is provided with a light trough 6, into which a lamp 7 is embedded. This design not only cleverly integrates the lamp with the guardrail, ensuring the overall aesthetics of the guardrail, but also provides additional lighting for nighttime driving, enhancing driving safety. The lamp trough is located on the left and right sides of the reinforcement beam, close to the outer frame, ensuring the lighting coverage and protecting the lamp from damage caused by external collisions.

[0037] Furthermore: a bracket 8 is provided on the back of the outer frame, and the bracket is connected to the connecting base 10 by fixing bolts embedded in the connecting groove 9. This design ensures that the guard bar is stable and reliable when installed on the car body, and is not easy to loosen or fall off even in long-term use or when encountering a collision. The modular installation design makes the assembly and disassembly process of the entire guard bar simple, which is helpful for later maintenance and replacement. Traditional iron guard bars are prone to problems such as rusted bolts and difficult operation of the connection parts during installation and disassembly. The utility model effectively solves these problems through aluminum materials and optimized design.

[0038] Furthermore, a panel 11 is installed at the front of the lamp, covering the exterior of the lamp trough. Several screws penetrate the panel and secure it to the reinforcing beam. This not only secures the lamp but also protects it from external factors such as dust and water stains while the vehicle is in motion, extending its lifespan. This design makes panel removal and replacement much easier, facilitating subsequent maintenance and reducing operating and repair costs.

[0039] In summary, the aluminum front bumper of this utility model achieves multiple technical advantages, including lightweight, high strength, and corrosion resistance, through rational structural design and high-quality material selection. During daily driving, the crossbeam and reinforcing beam effectively disperse impact forces, the ventilation holes provide excellent heat dissipation, the integrated light trough design enhances safety, and the overall structural design facilitates installation and maintenance. Compared to traditional iron bumpers, this utility model overcomes the shortcomings of heavy weight and rust susceptibility, providing a superior performance solution for automotive front bumpers and is therefore suitable for widespread adoption.
