[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 2 As shown, this application provides a car charging port mounting bracket 1. The car charging port mounting bracket 1 is used to install a car charging port 2 onto the car body sheet metal. The car charging port 2 can be an assembly, which includes a connector, and may further include a decorative base, a decorative cover, a connector cover plate, etc.

[0031] Please see Figures 3 to 4 As shown, the car charging port mounting bracket 1 includes a base portion 10, and a support portion and an assembly portion 13 extending from the base portion 10. The support portion is used to fix the car charging port mounting bracket 1 to the car body sheet metal, and the assembly portion 13 is used to fix the car charging port 2 to the car body sheet metal. The assembly portion 13 is provided with a pre-installation hole 132 and a locking hole 131. The car charging port 2 can be pre-positioned onto the assembly portion 13 by engaging with the pre-installation hole 132, and locked onto the assembly portion 13 by engaging with the locking hole 131.

[0032] When the existing fixed bracket of the vehicle charging port is connected to the vehicle charging port, the operator often needs to hold the vehicle charging port steady while assembling and connecting, which affects the assembly efficiency. The fixed bracket 1 of the vehicle charging port provided in this application has a pre-installation hole 132 that can position and pre-hang the vehicle charging port 2. The vehicle charging port 2 positioned through the pre-installation hole 132 ensures that the locking hole 131 and the vehicle charging port 2 are also in place. The operator can directly operate the locking part to cooperate and lock with the locking hole 131, which is convenient for assembly and improves the assembly efficiency. The pre-installation hole 132 can also play an anti-fooling role and prevent the wrong assembly direction of the vehicle charging port 2. When the assembly direction of the vehicle charging port 2 is incorrect, the vehicle charging port 2 cannot match the pre-installation hole 132 to avoid the operator from incorrectly installing the vehicle charging port 2.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the base part 10 includes a vertically arranged substrate 14 and two side plates 15 bent and extended from the left and right ends of the substrate 14. It should be noted that the words describing the orientation such as vertical, left and right, upper end and lower end express the relative positional relationship, rather than the absolute positional relationship in the use state. Taking Figure 3 the shown perspective as an example, the substrate 14 is vertically arranged and its left and right ends, upper end and lower end are all clear. In this embodiment, the vertically arranged means arranging in the height direction of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the two side plates 15 are located on the same side of the substrate 14, that is, the two side plates 15 are bent from the left and right ends of the substrate 14 to the same side. The base part 10 formed by the substrate 14 and the two side plates 15 is integrally in a "C" shape.

[0034] The upper end of the substrate 14 is recessed downward compared with the upper ends of the two side plates 15. Thus, a recessed part 140 for the pipeline to pass through is formed between the upper end of the substrate 14 and the plane where the upper ends of the two side plates 15 are located. Please refer to Figure 1 as shown, the recessed part 140 can allow the pipeline 21 connected to the vehicle charging port 2 to pass through and be connected to electrical components such as the battery in the vehicle body. Please refer to Figure 4 as shown. Further, a protective flanging 142 is provided at the upper end of the substrate 14. The protective flanging 142 is formed by folding a metal edge, which can prevent the sharp edge from contacting the pipeline 21 and avoid the pipeline 21 from being scratched or even cut by the sharp edge, and can play a protective role for the pipeline 21.

[0035] The substrate 14 and the side plate 15 are also provided with wire-passing holes 141 for wire harnesses to pass through. In this embodiment, thicker conduits 21 can pass through the recess 140, and thinner wire harnesses, such as the connecting wires of some separately installed sensors, can pass through the wire-passing holes 141. The position, number, and shape of the wire-passing holes 141 can be set according to actual needs. In some embodiments, the wire-passing holes 141 can be formed only on the substrate 14 or only on the side plate 15.

[0036] Please continue reading. Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the assembly part 13 extends from the upper end of the two side plates 15 by bending. The assembly part 13 consists of two plates formed on the upper end of the two side plates 15, which can fit against the mounting surface of the car charging port 2. The pre-installation hole 132 on the assembly part 13 can cooperate with the positioning post provided on the mounting surface of the car charging port 2 to achieve alignment and pre-fixation. The locking hole 131 on the assembly part 13 can be aligned with the hole provided on the mounting surface of the car charging port 2, and the car charging port 2 can be locked onto the assembly part 13 by passing a bolt through it. In this embodiment, the locking hole 131 is a round hole, and the pre-installation hole 132 is a square hole. In this embodiment, the two assembly parts 13 provided on the upper end of the two side plates 15 extend from the upper end of the side plates 15 in a direction away from each other, so that the two assembly parts 13 have a large support span, and the support for the car charging port 2 is more stable.

[0037] In this embodiment, the support legs include a first support leg 11 extending from the lower end of the base plate 14 and a second support leg 12 extending from the lower end of the side plate 15. The first support leg 11 and the two side plates 15 are located on different sides of the base plate 14, that is, the first support leg 11 and the second support leg 12 are also located on different sides of the base plate 14. By providing multiple support legs, the stability of the car charging port mounting bracket 1 on the car body sheet metal can be improved. In this embodiment, the second support leg 12 extends towards each other from the lower ends of the two side plates 15. The first support leg 11 is provided with a first fixing hole 111, and the second support leg 12 is provided with a second fixing hole 121 and a third fixing hole 122, wherein the second fixing hole 121 is a round hole, and the third fixing hole 122 is an elongated hole. Providing an elongated hole allows for slight adjustment of the installation position, avoiding installation failure due to manufacturing deviations in the holes on the car body sheet metal that are used for mounting the car charging port mounting bracket 1.

[0038] In this embodiment, the car charging port fixing bracket 1 is integrally formed from a metal sheet. The metal sheet is formed by stamping and bending, resulting in a simple, complete structure with good strength. Furthermore, to enhance the structural strength at the bends, the car charging port fixing bracket 1 is provided with a reinforcing portion 16 at the bends. Specifically, in this embodiment, the reinforcing portion 16 is located at the bend between the base plate 14 and the side plate 15, the bend between the side plate 15 and the assembly portion 13, and the bend between the base plate 14 and the first support leg portion 11. The reinforcing portion 16 is a convex bulge formed by stamping at the bend. In other embodiments, the reinforcing portion 16 may also be an additional reinforcing rib, etc.

[0039] During assembly, the car charging port fixing bracket 1 is first installed on the car body sheet metal. The fixing holes on the support feet are aligned with the corresponding holes on the car body sheet metal and then connected and fixed by bolts and other fasteners. Then, the car charging port 2 is placed on the assembly part 13 of the car charging port fixing bracket 1 in the correct direction, so that the positioning post on the car charging port 2 cooperates with the pre-installation hole 132 on the assembly part 13 to achieve positioning and pre-attachment. Then, bolts and other locking parts are used to lock and fix the car charging port 2 to the assembly part 13.

[0040] This application also provides an automotive charging port assembly, which includes an automotive charging port 2 and an automotive charging port mounting bracket 1 as described above, wherein the automotive charging port 2 is mounted on the mounting portion 13 of the automotive charging port mounting bracket 1.

[0041] This application also provides a vehicle that includes the vehicle charging port assembly described above.

[0042] The car charging port fixing bracket 1 provided in this application includes a base part 10, a support leg part, and an assembly part 13. The assembly part 13 is provided with a pre-installation hole 132 and a locking hole 131. The car charging port 2 can be pre-positioned on the assembly part 13 by cooperating with the pre-installation hole 132, and the car charging port 2 is locked on the assembly part 13 by cooperating with the locking member and the locking hole 131. The pre-installation hole 132 can realize the positioning and pre-hanging of the car charging port 2. The car charging port positioned by the pre-installation hole 132 ensures that the locking hole 131 and the car charging port 2 are also in place. The operator can directly operate the locking member to cooperate with the locking hole 131 to lock, which is convenient for assembly and improves assembly efficiency.

[0043] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0044] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of patent protection for the present application shall be determined by the appended claims.
