Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present invention, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0028] The following is for reference. Figure 1-Figure 2 Description of a brake hose bracket 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0029] According to the first aspect of the present invention, the brake hose bracket 100 is used to fix the brake hose to an external structure. The brake hose of the vehicle is one of the important components connecting various parts of the braking system. During braking, the brake hose is used to deliver brake fluid, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the braking system. The external structure can be a bracket of the vehicle near the brake hose, such as a posture adjustment bracket.

[0030] The brake hose includes a first brake hose and a second brake hose that are separately configured. The brake hose bracket 100 includes a flow guide bracket 10, the two ends of which are connected to the first brake hose and the second brake hose, respectively. The brake hose bracket 100 is used to fix the first brake hose and the second brake hose to the external structure of the vehicle to prevent the brake hose from shifting due to vehicle vibration, shaking or other external forces. At the same time, the brake hose bracket 100 can be flexibly installed in various positions on the vehicle to avoid surrounding environmental components and wiring harnesses, reducing the difficulty of brake hose layout.

[0031] For example, if the brake hose moves around freely, it may collide or rub against other components, causing damage to the brake hose and thus affecting the normal operation of the braking system.

[0032] The flow guide bracket 10 has a flow guide channel 11 inside, which connects the first brake hose and the second brake hose. By forming the flow guide channel 11 inside, the brake hose is designed as a split first brake hose and second brake hose, which can indirectly shorten the length of the brake hose and facilitate the arrangement of the brake hose.

[0033] Because the brake hose has a small curvature in some places during its installation to avoid surrounding components, the brake hose bracket 100 is placed at the small curvature location to connect the brake hose. This reduces the bending angle of the brake hose and avoids the problem of excessively small curvature.

[0034] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the brake hose bracket 100 is used to fix the first brake hose and the second brake hose to the external structure of the vehicle, preventing the brake hose from shifting due to vehicle vibration, shaking or other external forces. It can also be used to avoid surrounding environmental objects and wiring harnesses, reducing the difficulty of brake hose arrangement. At the same time, the brake hose bracket 100 connects the brake hose, which can reduce the bending angle of the brake hose, thereby avoiding the problem of excessively small curvature of the brake hose.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The flow channel 11 includes a first flow channel 111 and a second flow channel 112 arranged at an angle. The first flow channel 111 and the second flow channel 112 are connected. The first flow channel 111 is connected to the first brake hose. For example, the first brake hose can extend into the first flow channel 111 and be interference-fitted with the inner wall of the first flow channel 111. The second flow channel 112 is connected to the second brake hose. For example, the second brake hose can extend into the second flow channel 112 and be interference-fitted with the inner wall of the second flow channel 112. The first flow channel 111 and the second flow channel 112 can change the arrangement direction of the first brake hose and the second brake hose to avoid surrounding environmental components and wiring harnesses, and can better adapt to the wheel-side position of the vehicle, reducing the difficulty of brake hose arrangement.

[0036] For example, the flow channel 11 also includes a third flow channel, which connects the first flow channel 111 and the second flow channel 112. The third flow channel is set at an angle to the first flow channel 111 and also at an angle to the second flow channel 112. This can avoid the dead angle between the second flow channel 112 and the first flow channel 111, which would be detrimental to the flow of brake fluid in the flow channel 11.

[0037] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The brake hose bracket 100 further includes a first connector 21 and a second connector 22. Both the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 are detachably connected to the flow guide bracket 10, and the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 are respectively located at both ends of the flow guide channel 11. The first brake hose is detachably connected to the first connector 21 so that the first brake hose communicates with the flow guide channel 11. The second brake hose is detachably connected to the second connector 22 so that the second brake hose communicates with the flow guide channel 11. The installation of the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 facilitates the installation and removal of the first brake hose and the second brake hose.

[0038] For example, both the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 can be threaded to the inner wall of the flow channel 11. The first brake hose can be connected to the first connector 21 through an adapter, and the second brake hose can also be connected to the second connector 22 through an adapter, which can further facilitate the connection and fixation of the first brake hose and the second brake hose to the flow guide bracket 10.

[0039] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The brake hose bracket 100 further includes a flow-blocking element. The flow guide bracket 10 also has a flow-blocking channel 12, which communicates with the flow guide channel 11. For example, the flow-blocking channel 12 can communicate with a third channel of the flow guide channel 11. The flow-blocking element is adapted to extend into the flow guide channel 11 through the flow-blocking channel 12 to open or close the flow guide channel 11. When the flow-blocking element opens the flow guide channel 11, the brake fluid can flow through the flow guide channel 11 to the brake caliper. When the flow-blocking element closes the flow guide channel 11, the brake fluid cannot flow through the flow guide channel 11. This facilitates the replacement or maintenance of brake calipers and other structural components by operators, and also facilitates pipeline failure testing during brake system testing.

[0040] When the flow cut-off component is removed from the flow cut-off channel 12, the testing equipment can be installed into the flow guide channel 11 through the flow cut-off channel 12, so that the test can be carried out without completely removing the pipeline, saving test time, reducing the wear and tear of each component, and improving safety.

[0041] For example, the flow-blocking component can be a stud that is threadedly connected to the flow-blocking channel 12. The stud extends into the flow-guiding channel 11 and can isolate the flow-guiding channel 11. The stud is only located in the flow-blocking channel 12 and can be used to open the flow-guiding channel 11.

[0042] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The brake hose bracket 100 also includes a third connector 23 and a cap 24. One end of the third connector 23 is detachably installed in the flow-blocking channel 12, for example, one end of the third connector 23 can be threaded to the inner wall of the flow-blocking channel 12. The cap 24 covers the other end of the third connector 23, which facilitates the cap 24 to seal the opening of the third connector 23. When the cap 24 is separated from the third connector 23, or when the third connector 23 is separated from the flow guide bracket 10, the flow-blocking element is adapted to extend into the flow guide channel 11 through the flow-blocking channel 12 to isolate the flow guide channel 11.

[0043] When the brake hose needs to work normally, one end of the third connector 23 is installed in the cut-off channel 12, and the cap 24 is placed on the other end of the third connector 23. The third connector 23 and the cap 24 can block the opening of the cut-off channel 12, which can prevent brake fluid from flowing out of the cut-off channel 12.

[0044] When it is necessary to replace the brake caliper or to perform a failure test on the pipeline, the cap 24 is removed from the third connector 23, and the flow cut-off element is adapted to extend into the flow channel 11 through the channel inside the third connector 23 to isolate the flow channel 11; when it is necessary to test the pipeline with testing equipment, the cap 24 is removed from the third connector 23, and the testing equipment is adapted to extend into the flow channel 11 through the channel inside the third connector 23.

[0045] When it is necessary to replace the brake caliper or to perform a failure test on the pipeline, the cap 24 and the third connector 23 are removed from the flow guide bracket 10, and the flow cut-off element is adapted to extend into the flow guide channel 11 through the flow cut-off channel 12 to isolate the flow guide channel 11; when it is necessary to test the pipeline with testing equipment, the cap 24 and the third connector 23 are removed from the flow guide bracket 10, and the testing equipment is adapted to extend into the flow guide channel 11 through the flow cut-off channel 12.

[0046] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The cap 24 includes a cap body 241 and a retaining ring 242 connected together. The retaining ring 242 is sleeved on the third connector 23, and the cap body 241 covers the end of the third connector 23. The outer periphery of the third connector 23 has a first annular protrusion 231, which restricts the position of the retaining ring 242 in the axial direction of the third connector 23 to fix the cap 24 to the third connector 23. A connecting part 244 is connected between the cap body 241 and the retaining ring 242, and a handle 243 is provided on the cap body 241 to facilitate rotation of the cap body 241.

[0047] For example, the fixing ring 242 can be an elastic element, and the fixing ring 242 can pass over the first annular protrusion 231 and be located on the side of the first annular protrusion 231 close to the flow guide bracket 10; as another example, the fixing ring 242 can be sleeved on the third connector 23 through the other end of the third connector 23, and then the third connector 23 can be installed into the intercepting channel 12.

[0048] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The end of the third connector 23 has a second annular protrusion 232. The cap 24 is press-fitted with the second annular protrusion 232, which can increase the connection strength between the cap 24 and the third connector 23 and prevent the cap 24 from falling off the third connector 23.

[0049] For example, the cap 24 can be an elastic element, so that the cap 24 can cover the outer periphery of the second annular protrusion 232.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2The brake hose bracket 100 further includes a mounting bracket 30, which is connected to the side wall of the flow guide bracket 10. The mounting bracket 30 includes a first mounting plate 31 and a second mounting plate 32 connected at an angle. The first mounting plate 31 is connected to the flow guide bracket 10, and the brake hose bracket 100 is fixed to the external structure by the second mounting plate 32. The first mounting plate 31 and the second mounting plate 32 can provide a suitable installation position for the installation of the brake hose bracket 100.

[0051] For example, the second mounting plate 32 may be provided with a first connecting hole 321, and the external structure may be provided with a second connecting hole opposite to the first connecting hole 321. Multiple first and second connecting holes may be provided. Fasteners are inserted through the first and second connecting holes to fix the brake hose bracket 100 to the external structure. Designing the first mounting plate 31 and the second mounting plate 32 at an angle facilitates the installation of fasteners. The angle between the first mounting plate 31 and the second mounting plate 32 can be adjusted according to the installation position of the brake hose bracket 100 to accommodate various installation positions.

[0052] For example, the first mounting plate 31 has an installation notch on the side facing the flow guide bracket 10. The flow guide bracket 10 is fixed in the installation notch, which can increase the connection area between the flow guide bracket 10 and the first mounting plate 31, thereby increasing the connection strength between the flow guide bracket 10 and the first mounting plate 31.

[0053] The vehicle according to the second aspect of the present invention includes: the brake hose bracket 100 of the first aspect of the present invention described above.

[0054] According to the vehicle of the present utility model embodiment, by setting the above-mentioned brake hose bracket 100, the brake hose is prevented from shifting due to vehicle vibration, shaking or other external force factors. It can also be used to avoid surrounding environmental objects and wiring harnesses, reducing the difficulty of brake hose arrangement. At the same time, the brake hose bracket 100 connects the brake hose, which can reduce the bending angle of the brake hose, thereby avoiding the problem of excessively small curvature of the brake hose.

[0055] According to some embodiments of the present invention, referring to Figure 1-Figure 2 The brake hose bracket 100 further includes a mounting bracket 30, which has mounting legs 33 that are inserted into mounting slots on an external structure, thereby further improving the structural strength of the brake hose bracket 100 when mounted on the external structure. For example, the mounting legs 33 can be connected to the side of the second mounting plate 32 opposite to the flow guide bracket 10.
