[0026] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present invention, which are illustrative only with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 3 The tube bundle bracket 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention can not only neatly bundle the tube bundles on the tube bundle bracket 100, but also limit the range of movement of the tube bundles, thereby avoiding the risk of interference and friction between the tube bundles and the surrounding headlights and front exterior trim. It can also drive the tube bundles to achieve a conformal arrangement effect during the flipping and lowering of the cab, thereby reducing the pulling and accumulation of the tube bundles during the flipping of the cab.

[0028] Combine Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the vehicle tube bundle support 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a fixed frame 1, an intermediate frame 2 and a movable frame 3. The fixed frame 1, the intermediate frame 2 and the movable frame 3 constitute the main load-bearing structure of the tube bundle support 100.

[0029] Specifically, the fixed frame 1 is used to connect to the vehicle frame, one end of the intermediate frame 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1, and the movable frame 3 is used to cooperate with the fasteners that fasten the tube bundle. The movable frame 3 is connected to the other end of the intermediate frame 2.

[0030] Specifically, the fixed frame 1 can be used to be fixedly connected to the vehicle frame, thereby connecting the tube bundle bracket 100 and the vehicle frame as a whole; the movable frame 3 can cooperate with the fasteners to constrain the direction of the tube bundle (for example, the movable frame 3 limits the movement space of the tube bundle in the lateral direction of the vehicle, only allowing the tube bundle to move along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, but not limited to this), so that the tube bundle can be arranged according to the specified extension direction, thereby improving the regularity of the tube bundle and reducing the risk of interference and collision between the tube bundle and adjacent structures (for example, peripheral headlights and front exterior trim, etc.); one end of the intermediate frame 2 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1, so that the intermediate frame 2 can easily change the angle between the intermediate frame 2 and the fixed frame 1, and the other end of the intermediate frame 2 is connected to the movable frame 3, so that the movable frame 3 can change its own spatial position as the intermediate frame 2 and the fixed frame 1 rotate relative to each other, thereby driving the tube bundle to be arranged along the movable frame 3.

[0031] In particular, when the cab of the vehicle is flipped, the fixed frame 1 is fixed to the vehicle frame, and the tube bundle on the movable frame 3 can drive the movable frame 3 and the intermediate frame 2 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1 under the pulling force of the tube bundle by the relevant structure on the cab (that is, the components connecting the tube bundle), thereby achieving the effect of changing the original direction of the tube bundle, so that the tube bundle continuously adjusts its extension direction as much as possible as the cab flips to achieve a smooth effect. Furthermore, compared to conventional fixed tube bundle supports (due to the fixed tube bundle supports, the tube bundles cannot adjust their extension direction in time during the cab flipping and falling process, resulting in pulling and accumulation of the tube bundles, causing irreversible damage to the tube bundles), the embodiment of the present case can enable the tube bundles on the tube bundle supports 100 to form a conformal arrangement in time during the cab flipping and falling process, thereby maximizing the flexible deformation of the tube bundles before and after the cab flipping (flexible deformation refers to the ability of a material or structure to deform when subjected to an external force and to return to its original shape after the external force is removed, or at least to avoid permanent damage), thereby avoiding the risk of damage to the tube bundles due to pulling or accumulation.

[0032] Therefore, by providing the tube bundle bracket 100, on the one hand, the tube bundle can be neatly bundled to the tube bundle bracket 100, and the range of movement of the tube bundle can be limited, thereby avoiding the risk of interference and friction between the tube bundle and the surrounding headlights and front exterior trim. On the other hand, it can also drive the tube bundle to achieve the effect of conformal arrangement during the flipping and falling of the cab, thereby reducing the pulling and accumulation of the tube bundle during the flipping of the cab, thereby improving the regularity and protection of the tube bundle.

[0033] According to some optional embodiments of the present invention, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the intermediate frame 2 includes a first rotating shaft 21, a rotating rod 22 and a second rotating shaft 23. The first rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 1, one end of the rotating rod 22 is connected to the first rotating shaft 21, and the second rotating shaft 23 is connected to the other end of the rotating rod 22. The second rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected to the movable frame 3.

[0034] It can be understood that the first rotating shaft 21, the rotating rod 22 and the second rotating shaft 23 constitute the main structure of the intermediate frame 2, and the first rotating shaft 21, the rotating rod 22 and the second rotating shaft 23 are formed in one piece, which can improve the structural strength of the intermediate frame 2 and simplify the installation and manufacturing process of the intermediate frame 2.

[0035] In addition, the first rotating shaft 21 and the second rotating shaft 23 are located at both ends of the rotating rod 22. The first rotating shaft 21 is passed through one end of the fixed frame 1, so that the first rotating shaft 21 can rotate relative to the fixed frame 1, thereby allowing the intermediate frame 2 to rotate relative to the fixed frame 1. The second rotating shaft 23 is passed through the movable frame 3, so that the second rotating shaft 23 can rotate relative to the movable frame 3, thereby allowing the intermediate frame 2 to also rotate relative to the movable frame 3, thereby facilitating the tube bundle to adjust its own extension direction in a timely manner, and realizing the flexible deformation of the tube bundle before and after the cab is flipped as much as possible, avoiding the risk of irreversible damage to the tube bundle due to pulling or accumulation.

[0036] Specifically, combined Figure 1 As shown, the fixing frame 1 includes a fixing seat 11, a connecting rod 12 and a connecting seat 13. The fixing seat 11 is used to connect to the vehicle frame, one end of the connecting rod 12 is connected to the fixing seat 11, and the connecting seat 13 is connected to the other end of the connecting rod 12. The first rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 13.

[0037] It can be understood that the fixing seat 11 can connect the fixing frame 1 and the frame into a whole, and the first rotating shaft 21 of the intermediate frame 2 can be rotatably connected to the connecting seat 13, so that the intermediate frame 2 can achieve relative rotation with respect to the fixing frame 1, thereby ensuring that the tube bundle can be arranged in accordance with the shape, and realizing the flexible deformation of the tube bundle before and after the cab is flipped as much as possible, avoiding the risk of irreversible damage to the tube bundle due to pulling or accumulation.

[0038] Further, combined with Figure 1 As shown, the connecting seat 13 is provided with a first limiting portion 131 . When the connecting rod 12 rotates to the first designated position, the connecting rod 12 is limitedly engaged with the first limiting portion 131 .

[0039] Among them, a first limiting portion 131 is provided on the side of the connecting seat 13 facing the connecting rod 12, and the first limiting portion 131 is bent toward the side away from the connecting seat 13, so that when the intermediate frame 2 is rotated to a certain angle relative to the fixed frame 1, the connecting rod 12 on the intermediate frame 2 and the first limiting portion 131 form a limiting cooperation relationship, thereby facilitating the control of the rotation angle of the intermediate frame 2 relative to the fixed frame 1, preventing the intermediate frame 2 from being damaged by being pulled too long due to an excessive rotation angle, thereby improving the protection of the tube bundle.

[0040] Specifically, combined Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the movable frame 3 includes a movable block 31 and a bundling portion 32 . The second rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected to the movable block 31 . The bundling portion 32 is provided on the movable block 31 . The bundling portion 32 is used to cooperate with fasteners for fastening the tube bundle.

[0041] It can be understood that the bundling portion 32 can cooperate with the fastener to fasten the tube bundle to the movable frame 3, thereby forming a constraining and combing effect on the direction of the tube bundle, thereby improving the smoothness and regularity of the tube bundle; the second rotating shaft 23 of the intermediate frame 2 can be rotatably connected to the connecting seat 13, so that the movable frame 3 can achieve relative rotation with respect to the intermediate frame 2, thereby further increasing the diversity of choices for the extension direction of the tube bundle, thereby ensuring that the tube bundle can achieve the effect of shape-fitting arrangement, and realizing the flexible deformation of the tube bundle before and after the cab is flipped as much as possible, avoiding the risk of irreversible damage to the tube bundle due to pulling or accumulation.

[0042] Optionally, the intermediate frame 2 can be adaptively rotated in a large range (i.e., the connecting rod 12 has a large rotation radius), while the movable frame 3 can be adaptively rotated in a small range (i.e., the movable block 31 has a small rotation radius). The two can cooperate to achieve a variety of different tube bundle directions, thereby improving the conformal arrangement effect of the tube bundle and ensuring the flexible deformation of the tube bundle before and after the cab is flipped.

[0043] Further, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the movable block 31 is provided with a second limiting portion 311 . When the connecting rod 12 rotates to the second designated position, the connecting rod 12 is limitedly engaged with the second limiting portion 311 .

[0044] That is to say, a second limiting portion 311 is provided on the side of the movable block 31 facing the connecting rod 12. When the movable block 31 rotates to a certain angle relative to the intermediate frame 2, the connecting rod 12 on the intermediate frame 2 and the second limiting portion 311 form a limiting cooperation relationship, thereby facilitating the control of the rotation angle of the movable frame 3 relative to the intermediate frame 2, preventing the movable frame 3 from being pulled too long or accumulating dead corner damage risks due to excessive rotation angle, thereby improving the protection of the tube bundle and ensuring the flexible deformation of the tube bundle before and after the cab is flipped.

[0045] Specifically, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a restraining groove 312 for restraining the tube bundle is provided at one end of the movable block 31 , and the binding portion 32 is located on at least one side of the restraining groove 312 .

[0046] It can be understood that the constraint groove 312 can surround part of the outer circumference of the tube bundle. This can prevent the tube bundle from sliding off the first movable block 31 on the one hand, and can also form a stable supporting effect on the tube bundle on the other hand, thereby improving the rationality of the arrangement of the constraint groove 312; at least one side of the constraint groove 312 is provided with a bundling portion 32 for bundling the tube bundle. Such an arrangement can facilitate the fastener to tighten the tube bundle through the bundling portion 32, increase the limit points of the movable frame 3 for the tube bundle, and thus ensure the fastening reliability of the tube bundle.

[0047] Further, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the constraint groove 312 is constructed as an arc shape that is concave inward, and the surface of the bundling portion 32 on the side close to the constraint groove 312 does not protrude beyond the lowest point of the constraint groove 312. Such an arrangement can make the tube bundle fit more closely with the inner surface of the constraint groove 312, thereby facilitating surface contact between the tube bundle and the constraint groove 312, thereby improving the force uniformity and connection tightness between the tube bundle and the constraint groove 312, and the bundling portion 32 will not interfere with the normal laying of the tube bundle in the constraint groove 312, thereby making the tube bundle more closely aligned with the contours of the constraint groove 312, thereby improving the rationality of its arrangement.

[0048] Specifically, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, inwardly recessed matching grooves 321 are formed on opposite sides of the binding portion 32 , and the matching grooves 321 are used for position-limiting matching with fasteners.

[0049] It is understandable that matching grooves 321 for limiting the fastening clamps are provided on opposite sides of the bundling portion 32. This can form a limiting effect on the fasteners in the extension direction of the tube bundle, preventing the fasteners from falling off the bundling portion 32, thereby ensuring the position stability of the tube bundle and further improving the practicality of the tube bundle bracket 100.

[0050] The vehicle according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes the tube bundle bracket 100 of the vehicle of the above embodiment. The vehicle having the tube bundle bracket 100 can improve the regularity of the arrangement of the tube bundle, and can also achieve the shape-conforming arrangement effect of the tube bundle, thereby reducing the damage caused by pulling and accumulation of the tube bundle during the flipping of the cab.
