Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of auto parts, in particular to a fixed installation structure of an automobile radiator water chamber. Background Art

[0002] The automobile radiator is the core component of the vehicle cooling system. Its main function is to dissipate heat through circulating coolant and maintain the engine within a suitable operating temperature range. The water chamber is an important part of the radiator, and its installation structure has a significant impact on the radiator's sealing, durability, and ease of maintenance.

[0003] At present, common water chamber fixed installation structures mainly adopt riveting, welding or clamping connection methods. Although riveting and welding methods have high strength and sealing performance, the installation process is relatively complicated. Once damaged, the repair and replacement costs are high. The clamping structure is installed through buckles and sealing rings, but during long-term use, vibration or thermal expansion can easily cause the buckles to loosen, which in turn causes a gap between the bottom of the water chamber and the sealing ring, resulting in leakage. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, the position reminder structure includes a storage groove opened on the side of the elliptical connecting block, a movable block is movably provided in the storage groove, sliders are respectively connected to the two sides of the movable block, movable grooves are respectively opened in the storage grooves on both sides of the movable block, the sliders are arranged in the movable groove, a release spring is arranged between the rear side of the slider and the rear side wall of the movable groove, an annular release groove is opened on the inner wall of the rotating groove, and the cross-sectional shape of the release groove matches the head shape of the movable block.

[0007] Preferably, the head of the movable block is in a transverse "V" shape.

[0008] Preferably, a movable positioning ring is provided below the stabilizing spring, and a groove matching the shape of the movable positioning ring is provided at the top of the connecting slot in the water chamber housing, and the movable positioning ring is clamped in the groove.

[0009] Preferably, spring grooves are respectively formed on the top surface of the movable positioning ring and the bottom surface of the fixed ring, and the upper and lower ends of the stabilizing spring are respectively arranged in the spring grooves.

[0010] After adopting the above structure, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0011] 1. The utility model is designed with a stabilizing spring. On the one hand, it can make the elliptical connecting block enter the fixed slot and be tightened, so that the connecting piece will not produce circumferential rotation and has good stability. On the other hand, the stabilizing spring can continuously press the water chamber shell toward the mounting seat to ensure the tightness between the two without loosening.

[0025] The position reminder structure 7 includes a storage groove 705 provided on the side of the elliptical connecting block 306, a movable block 701 is movably provided in the storage groove 705, the head of the movable block 701 is in a horizontal "V" shape, sliders 703 are connected to both sides of the movable block 701, and movable grooves 702 are respectively provided in the storage groove 705 on both sides of the movable block 701. The sliders 703 are provided in the movable grooves 702, and a release spring 704 is provided between the rear side of the slider 703 and the rear side wall of the movable groove 702. An annular release groove 8 is provided on the inner wall of the rotating groove 5, and the cross-sectional shape of the release groove 8 matches the shape of the head of the movable block 701;

[0026] A movable positioning ring 304 is provided below the stabilizing spring 305, and a groove matching the shape of the movable positioning ring 304 is provided at the top of the connecting slot 4 in the water chamber housing 2, and the movable positioning ring 304 is clamped in the groove;

[0027] A spring groove 307 is respectively formed on the top surface of the movable positioning ring 304 and the bottom surface of the fixed ring 303 , and the upper and lower ends of the stabilizing spring 305 are respectively disposed in the spring groove 307 .

[0028] The principle and use process of this utility model:

[0029] First, place the water chamber shell 2 to the corresponding position on the mounting base 1, and then insert the connecting piece 3 downward into the connecting slot 4 through the mounting head 302, and the movable positioning ring 304 enters the groove of the water chamber shell 2, and then press the connecting piece 3 downward to compress the stabilizing spring 305. The movable block 701 is pressed into the receiving groove 705 under the action of the inclined surface, and the release spring 704 is in a compressed state until the movable block 701 reaches the release groove 8. Under the action of the release spring 704, the movable block 701 is ejected outward, touching the release groove 8 and making a sound, which means that the connecting piece 3 is inserted into place, and then the mounting head is rotated. 302, drives the insertion rod 301 and the elliptical connecting block 306 to rotate, while reducing the downward pressure on the installation head 302 until the elliptical connecting block 306 is aligned with the fixed slot 6. Under the action of the stabilizing spring 305, the insertion rod 301 and the elliptical connecting block 306 are bounced upward, and the elliptical connecting block 306 enters the fixed slot 6, and the installation is completed. The stabilizing spring 305 continuously presses the water chamber shell 2 toward the mounting seat 1 to ensure that the two are fastened together without loosening. Moreover, since the elliptical connecting block 306 is stuck in the fixed slot 6, the connector 3 will not rotate circumferentially, and has good stability.
