[0004] However, this fixing method results in a small gap between the controller and the longitudinal beam of the frame, which can easily cause interference between the controller and the longitudinal beam of the frame, affecting the fixing effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a vehicle and its controller bracket, which allows a first controller fixed on a crossbeam to be moved away from the longitudinal beam, reducing the probability of the first controller rubbing against the longitudinal beam and improving the fixing effect of the first controller.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] The first aspect of this application provides a controller bracket for mounting between two longitudinal beams of a vehicle frame. The controller bracket includes a first bracket for mounting a first controller. The first bracket includes at least one set of support units. Each set of support units includes: two first vertical beams for fixing to the two longitudinal beams respectively; two fixed beams, each corresponding to one of the two first vertical beams, with each fixed beam located on the side of the first vertical beam away from the longitudinal beam, and the first end of each fixed beam fixed to the first vertical beam; and a crossbeam, with both ends of the crossbeam connected to the second ends of the two fixed beams respectively, for supporting the first controller.

[0008] As an optional implementation, in each set of support units, two first vertical beams are arranged at intervals along a first direction; two fixed beams extend along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and a crossbeam extends along the first direction.

[0011] As an optional implementation, the first support further includes: two second connecting beams, which are located between the two sets of support units and extend along a second direction, and the two ends of each second connecting beam are respectively connected to the lower end of a first vertical beam in one of the two sets of support units.

[0012] As an optional implementation, at least one mounting member is provided below each second connecting beam, the mounting member being used to connect the longitudinal beam and the second connecting beam.

[0013] As an optional implementation, a damping pad is provided between each mounting component and the second connecting beam for vibration reduction.

[0014] As an optional implementation, the controller bracket further includes: a second bracket disposed on top of the first bracket, the interior of the second bracket defining a wiring cavity for accommodating the wire harness; the top of the second bracket has at least one support beam for supporting the second controller.

[0017] The controller bracket of this application has two vertically arranged first vertical beams, which can be directly or indirectly fixed to two longitudinal beams. The two fixed beams correspond one-to-one with the two first vertical beams, and each fixed beam is located on the side of the first vertical beam away from the longitudinal beam. This makes each fixed beam farther away from the longitudinal beam than the first vertical beam. The two ends of the crossbeam are respectively connected to the second ends of the two fixed beams, making the crossbeam farther away from the longitudinal beam than the first vertical beam. Thus, the first controller fixed on the crossbeam can be far away from the longitudinal beam, which reduces the probability of the first controller rubbing against the longitudinal beam and improves the fixing effect of the first controller.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] Existing controller brackets include two horizontally positioned crossbeams connected between two longitudinal beams of the vehicle frame, with one controller mounted on the two crossbeams for fixation. However, this fixing method results in a small gap between the controller and the longitudinal beams of the frame, which can easily lead to interference between the controller and the longitudinal beams, affecting the fixing effect.

[0026] To overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, this application provides a controller bracket. Since the two first vertical beams are respectively vertically arranged, the two first vertical beams can be directly or indirectly fixed to the two longitudinal beams. The two fixed beams correspond one-to-one with the two first vertical beams, and each fixed beam is located on the side of the first vertical beam away from the longitudinal beam. This makes each fixed beam farther away from the longitudinal beam than the first vertical beam. The two ends of the crossbeam are respectively connected to the second ends of the two fixed beams, making the crossbeam also farther away from the longitudinal beam than the first vertical beam. Thus, the first controller fixed on the crossbeam can be moved away from the longitudinal beam, thereby reducing the probability of the first controller rubbing against the longitudinal beam and improving the fixing effect of the first controller.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the following will be combined with the embodiments of this application. Figures 1 to 4 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0028] This application provides a controller bracket for mounting between two longitudinal beams 10 of a vehicle frame and fixing at least one controller. The controller bracket includes a first bracket 100 for mounting a first controller. The first bracket 100 may include at least one set of support units, each set of support units including a crossbeam 130, two first vertical beams 110 and two fixed beams 120.

[0029] Two first vertical beams 110 are respectively fixed to two longitudinal beams 10. Two fixed beams 120 correspond one-to-one with the two first vertical beams 110, and each fixed beam 120 is located on the side of the first vertical beam 110 away from the longitudinal beam 10, with the first end of the fixed beam 120 fixed to the first vertical beam 110. The two ends of the crossbeam 130 are respectively connected to the second ends of the two fixed beams 120, and are used to support the first controller.

[0030] In this embodiment, two first vertical beams 110 are respectively vertically arranged. The two first vertical beams 110 can be directly or indirectly fixed to the two longitudinal beams 10. Two fixed beams 120 correspond one-to-one with the two first vertical beams 110, and each fixed beam 120 is located on the side of the first vertical beam 110 away from the longitudinal beam 10, thus making each fixed beam 120 further away from the longitudinal beam 10 than the first vertical beam 110. The two ends of the crossbeam 130 are respectively connected to the second ends of the two fixed beams 120, making the crossbeam 130 also further away from the longitudinal beam 10 than the first vertical beam 110. Therefore, the first controller fixed to the crossbeam 130 can be moved away from the longitudinal beam 10, reducing the probability of the first controller rubbing against the longitudinal beam 10 and improving the fixing effect of the first controller.

[0031] In some specific embodiments, each first vertical beam 110 may be a square tube with a fixing surface 112 facing away from the longitudinal beam 10, and the fixing beam 120 may also be a square tube with an mounting surface 122. The mounting surface 122 of the fixing beam 120 is in contact with the fixing surface 112 of the first vertical beam 110 and is fixedly connected by fasteners.

[0032] In some embodiments, in each set of support units, two first vertical beams 110 are arranged at intervals along a first direction. Two fixed beams 120 extend along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. A crossbeam 130 extends along the first direction.

[0033] In this embodiment, since the two first vertical beams 110 are respectively used to fix the two longitudinal beams 10, the first direction can refer to the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal beams 10. Since the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, the second direction can refer to the extension direction of the longitudinal beams 10.

[0034] Furthermore, the support units are configured in two groups. The two groups of support units are arranged at intervals along the second direction.

[0035] In this embodiment, each group includes two first vertical beams 110, two fixed beams 120, and one horizontal beam 130. In each support unit, the two first vertical beams 110 are spaced apart along a first direction. The two fixed beams 120 extend along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The horizontal beam 130 extends along the first direction. Therefore, when the support unit of the first bracket 100 is configured as two groups, there are four first vertical beams 110 arranged in an array. Two first vertical beams 110 are arranged along their extension direction (second direction) on one longitudinal beam 10, and two first vertical beams 110 are arranged along their extension direction (second direction) on the other longitudinal beam 10. The four first vertical beams 110 are arranged in pairs facing each other along the first direction.

[0036] There are four fixed beams 120, each corresponding to a first vertical beam 110. For two first vertical beams 110 on the same longitudinal beam 10, the two fixed beams 120 extend relatively close together. This allows the second ends of the two fixed beams 120 to be closer together and further away from their corresponding first vertical beams 110. This also allows the crossbeam 130 to be further away from the first vertical beams 110. Consequently, the first controller fixed to the crossbeam 130 can be further away from the first vertical beams 110, reducing the probability of friction between the first controller and the first vertical beams 110 and further improving the fixing effect of the first controller.

[0037] In some embodiments, the first support 100 may further include two first connecting beams 140, which are located between the two sets of support units and extend along the second direction, and the two ends of each first connecting beam 140 are respectively connected to the upper end of a first vertical beam 110 in one of the two sets of support units.

[0038] As can be seen from the above, when the support unit of the first support 100 is set to two groups, there are four first vertical beams 110. The four first vertical beams 110 are arranged in an array. Two first vertical beams 110 are set on each longitudinal beam 10 along its extension direction (these two first vertical beams 110 belong to two groups of support units respectively). The first connecting beam 140 can be connected between the tops of the two first vertical beams 110, which can connect the two groups of support units, so that the entire first support 100 forms a stable main body and improves the stability of the first support 100.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first support 100 may further include two second connecting beams 150, which are located between the two sets of support units and extend along a second direction, and the two ends of each second connecting beam 150 are respectively connected to the lower end of a first vertical beam 110 in one of the two sets of support units.

[0040] Similarly, since two first vertical beams 110 are provided on each longitudinal beam 10 along its extension direction (these two first vertical beams 110 belong to two sets of support units respectively), the first connecting beam 140 can be connected between the bottom ends of the two first vertical beams 110, which can connect the two sets of support units, so that the entire first support 100 forms a stable main body and improves the stability of the first support 100.

[0041] Furthermore, at least one mounting member 160 is provided below each second connecting beam 150, the mounting member 160 being used to connect the longitudinal beam 10 and the second connecting beam 150.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first vertical beam 110 can be fixed to the longitudinal beam 10 via the second connecting beam 150. Specifically, each longitudinal beam 10 has a main body plate 12, an upper flange 14, and a lower flange 16. The upper flange 14 is formed at the lower end of the main body plate 12 and extends inward. The lower flange 16 is formed at the lower end of the main body plate 12 and extends inward. The shape of the mounting member 160 can match the shape of the longitudinal beam 10. Specifically, the mounting member 160 has a side surface 162 and a bottom surface 164. The side surface 162 is used to fit against the main body plate 12, and the bottom surface 164 is formed at the lower end of the side surface 162 and extends inward, for fitting against the lower flange 16. When fixing the mounting member 160 to the longitudinal beam 10, the side surface 162 can be fixed to the main body plate 12 by fasteners, and / or the bottom surface 164 can be fixed to the lower flange 16 by fasteners.

[0043] In addition, the fastener may also include a top surface 166, which is formed at the upper end of the side surface 162 and extends inward, and the top surface 166 protrudes from the lower flange 16. The top surface 166 can be fixed with the second connecting beam 150 to fix the first vertical beam 110 to the longitudinal beam 10.

[0044] Furthermore, a damping pad 170 is provided between each mounting component 160 and the second connecting beam 150 for vibration reduction.

[0045] When the vehicle is in operation, various vibrations may cause the fasteners used to connect the mounting bracket 160 and the second connecting beam 150 to loosen. The buffer pad 170 effectively prevents these connections from loosening under dynamic conditions, ensuring the safety and stability of the entire controller bracket.

[0046] In some specific embodiments, the buffer pad 170 can also be configured as a suspension pad, which is a buffer element that absorbs and buffers vibrations through its own elastic deformation, thereby reducing the noise and vibration propagated in the structure and improving the stability of the frame and controller bracket.

[0047] In some embodiments, the controller bracket may further include a second bracket 200 disposed on top of the first bracket 100, the interior of the second bracket 200 defining a wiring cavity 201 for receiving a wire harness. The top of the second bracket 200 has at least one support beam 210 for supporting the second controller.

[0048] In this embodiment, the second bracket 200 is disposed on the top of the first bracket 100 to support the second controller. This allows the controller bracket to fix both the first and second controllers simultaneously, realizing the modular design of the first and second controllers, meeting the installation requirements of important components, saving installation space, reducing the weight of the vehicle, and enabling centralized arrangement of high-voltage wiring harnesses, thus improving the overall aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0049] In addition, the interior of the second bracket 200 defines a wiring cavity 201 for accommodating the wire harness. The wiring cavity 201 allows the wire harnesses of the first controller and the second controller to be routed simultaneously, effectively achieving a reasonable routing and layout of the wire harnesses.

[0050] In some embodiments, in each set of support units, two first vertical beams 110 are arranged at intervals along a first direction. Two sets of support units are configured; and the two sets of support units are arranged at intervals along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The second bracket 200 may further include four second vertical beams 220, two third connecting beams 230, and two fourth connecting beams 240. The bottom ends of the four second vertical beams 220 are respectively connected to the top ends of the four first vertical beams 110. The two third connecting beams 230 extend along the second direction, and each third connecting beam 230 is connected to the top ends of the two second vertical beams 220. The two fourth connecting beams 240 extend along the second direction, and each fourth connecting beam 240 is connected to the bottom ends of the two second vertical beams 220. There are two support beams 210, which are arranged at intervals along the second direction, and each support beam 210 is connected between the two third connecting beams 230.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first support 100 has two sets of support units, namely, the first support 100 has four first vertical beams 110 arranged in an array. The second support 200 has four second vertical beams 220, the bottom ends of which are respectively connected to the top ends of the four first vertical beams 110, so that the second support 200 is fixed to the first support 100. Specifically, a first fixing plate 114 is provided at the top end of each first vertical beam 110, and a second fixing plate 222 is provided at the top end of each second vertical beam 220. The first fixing plate 114 and the second fixing plate 222 are connected by fasteners to fix the first vertical beam 110 and the second vertical beam 220.

[0052] Two third connecting beams 230 extend along the second direction respectively, and each third connecting beam 230 is connected to the top of the two second vertical beams 220. The third connecting beam 230 can be connected between the tops of the two second vertical beams 220, so that the two second vertical beams 220 can be connected together, making the entire second support 200 a stable main body and improving the stability of the second support 200.

[0053] Similarly, each fourth connecting beam 240 is connected to the bottom end of the two second vertical beams 220, which can connect the two second vertical beams 220 together, so that the entire second support 200 forms a stable main body and improves the stability of the second support 200.

[0054] This application also provides a vehicle that may include a frame and a controller bracket as described in any of the above embodiments. The frame has two longitudinal beams 10, and the controller bracket is disposed between the two longitudinal beams 10.

[0055] Specifically, in at least one support unit of the first bracket 100, two first vertical beams 110 are respectively vertically arranged and directly or indirectly fixed to the two longitudinal beams 10, so that the controller bracket is arranged between the two longitudinal beams 10.

[0056] In this embodiment, the two first vertical beams 110 can be directly or indirectly fixed to the two longitudinal beams 10, respectively. Two fixed beams 120 correspond one-to-one with the two first vertical beams 110, and each fixed beam 120 is located on the side of the first vertical beam 110 away from the longitudinal beam 10, thus making each fixed beam 120 further away from the longitudinal beam 10 than the first vertical beam 110. The two ends of the crossbeam 130 are respectively connected to the second ends of the two fixed beams 120, making the crossbeam 130 also further away from the longitudinal beam 10 than the first vertical beam 110. Therefore, the first controller fixed to the crossbeam 130 can be moved away from the longitudinal beam 10, reducing the probability of friction between the first controller and the longitudinal beam 10 and improving the fixing effect of the first controller.

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the second bracket 200 is disposed on the top of the first bracket 100 to support the second controller. This allows the controller bracket to simultaneously fix the first controller and the second controller, realizing the modular design of the first controller and the second controller, meeting the installation requirements of important components, saving installation space, reducing the weight of the vehicle, and enabling centralized arrangement of high-voltage wiring harnesses, thus improving the overall aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0058] In some specific embodiments, the first controller may be one of a motor controller and a multi-function controller, and the second controller may be the other of a motor controller and a multi-function controller.
