[0051] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Reference will now be made in detail to preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings to represent the same or similar parts.

[0052] In addition, although the terms used in the present invention are selected from well-known and commonly used terms, some terms mentioned in the specification of the present invention may be selected by the applicant at his or her discretion, and their detailed meanings are explained in the relevant parts of the description of this article.

[0053] Furthermore, it is required that the present invention be understood not only by the actual terms used but also by the meanings connoted by each term.

[0054] like Figures 3 to 9 As shown, the present invention discloses a subframe for a pure electric vehicle, comprising a front crossbeam 10, a first rear crossbeam 20, a first longitudinal beam 30, and a second longitudinal beam 40. One end of the first longitudinal beam 30 and one end of the second longitudinal beam 40 are connected to the ends of the front crossbeam 10 via a first connecting bracket 50, respectively. The other ends of the first longitudinal beam 30 and the other ends of the second longitudinal beam 40 are connected to the ends of the first rear crossbeam 20 via a second connecting bracket 60, respectively, to form a frame structure. The front crossbeam 10, the first rear crossbeam 20, the first longitudinal beam 30, and the second longitudinal beam 40 are all square tubular beams, each having a rectangular cross-section.

[0055] Preferably, the pure electric vehicle subframe further includes a second rear crossbeam 70 , the two ends of which are respectively connected to the first longitudinal beam 30 and the second longitudinal beam 40 , and the second rear crossbeam 70 is located between the first rear crossbeam 20 and the front crossbeam 10 .

[0056] Here, the first rear cross beam 20 , the second rear cross beam 70 , the first longitudinal beam 30 and the second longitudinal beam 40 are preferably all of a square tube beam structure.

[0057] Further preferably, the pure electric vehicle subframe further includes a first reinforcing beam 80 and a second reinforcing beam 81 , wherein the first reinforcing beam 80 is connected between the first longitudinal beam 30 and the second rear cross beam 70 , and the second reinforcing beam 81 is connected between the second longitudinal beam 40 and the second rear cross beam 70 .

[0058] One end of the first connecting bracket 50 is provided as a first connecting portion 51, connecting the end of the front cross beam 10 to the first connecting portion 51. The other end of the first connecting bracket 50 is provided as a second connecting portion 52, connecting the first longitudinal beam 30 and the second longitudinal beam 40 to the second connecting portion 52.

[0059] Preferably, the first connecting portion 51 and the second connecting portion 52 are perpendicular to each other.

[0060] Similarly, one end of the second connecting bracket 60 is set as the third connecting part 61, connecting the end of the first rear cross beam 20 to the third connecting part 61, and the other end of the second connecting bracket 60 is set as the fourth connecting part 62, connecting the first longitudinal beam 30 and the second longitudinal beam 40 to the fourth connecting part 62.

[0061] Preferably, the third connecting portion and the fourth connecting portion are perpendicular to each other.

[0062] Here, the first connecting bracket 50 and the second connecting bracket 60 are preferably hollow frame structures.

[0063] According to the above structural description, the subframe of the pure electric vehicle of the present invention is mainly composed of five square tube beams. The cross beams and longitudinal beams both adopt square tube beam structures, which reduces the welding sequence required for the original upper and lower piece buckling structure, reduces the weld length, and has a rectangular cross-section.

[0064] The first and second longitudinal beams are constructed from the same tubular beam specifications, requiring only one set of square tubular beam forming molds. This simplifies the structure and reduces manufacturing costs. The front crossbeam and longitudinal beams are welded together via a first connecting bracket. The first rear crossbeam is directly welded to the longitudinal beams, and the second connecting bracket welds the first rear crossbeam and longitudinal beams together, forming a solid frame with excellent structural performance.

[0065] The subframe has a simple overall structure, with crossbeams and longitudinal beams adopting a square tube beam structure. This can reduce the weight of the subframe while ensuring strength, thereby meeting the lightweight requirements of the entire vehicle. The added square tube second rear crossbeam provides effective Y-axis support for the subframe, greatly improving the overall performance of the subframe.

[0066] At the same time, square tube forming reduces the welding requirements of the subframe, reduces the number of welding passes, and simplifies the process. In addition, this type of subframe has a high material utilization rate, reduces waste generation, and reduces production costs.

[0067] Therefore, the pure electric vehicle subframe of the present invention can improve the bending and torsional resistance of the subframe, while simplifying the process difficulty and improving the material utilization rate.

[0068] In summary, the subframe of the pure electric vehicle of the present invention has a simple structure, fewer welding sequences, less welding thermal deformation, high dimensional accuracy, and simple process.

[0069] The pure electric vehicle subframe can effectively improve the overall performance and overall material utilization of the subframe.
