[0049] The utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0050] Embodiment one
[0051] The embodiment relates to a front engine compartment longitudinal beam, which can solve the problem of insufficient energy absorption of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam in collision, and help to improve the vehicle collision safety performance.
[0052] As shown in the overall structure, Figures 1 to 4 The front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 of the embodiment is provided with a suspension mounting point 2 for mounting the power assembly suspension at the top of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1, and is provided with a subframe middle mounting point 3 for fixedly mounting the middle part of the front subframe at the bottom of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1. Among them, the suspension mounting point 2 is multiple and arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle, and from the left-right direction of the vehicle, the subframe middle mounting point 3 is located below the region of the multiple suspension mounting points 2.
[0053] At this time, as in the above structure, the subframe middle mounting point 3 is arranged below the region of the multiple suspension mounting points 2, so that the positions of the suspension mounting point 2, the subframe middle mounting point 3 and these mounting points which are not easy to deform are relatively concentrated, which is beneficial to the deformation and energy absorption of other positions of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 in vehicle collision, thereby helping to improve the vehicle collision safety performance.
[0054] Based on the above overall introduction, the exemplary structure of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 described in the embodiment is as shown in Figures 1 to 4As shown, considering that the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1 is arranged symmetrically left and right on the vehicle, the following will be specifically described by taking the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1 on the left side of the vehicle as an example.
[0055] In detail, continuing to refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in the embodiment, the top of the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1 is provided with a plurality of suspension mounting points 2, the plurality of suspension mounting points 2 are arranged in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, and the plurality of suspension mounting points 2 are used for mounting the power assembly suspension. The plurality of suspension mounting points 2 are also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first suspension mounting point 21 and the second suspension mounting point 22 shown in
[0056] It should be noted here that the above-mentioned power assembly can be an engine assembly, or when it is a new energy vehicle, the power assembly can also be a driving motor assembly.
[0057] Still referring to Figures 1 to 4 , the bottom of the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1 is provided with a subframe middle mounting point 3, which is used for fixedly mounting the middle part of the front subframe on the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1. Specifically, the subframe middle mounting point 3 includes a mounting bracket fixed to the bottom of the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1, and a mounting sleeve provided with a mounting hole on the mounting bracket.
[0058] In addition, the bottom of the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1 is also provided with a subframe front mounting point 4 for fixedly mounting the front part of the front subframe. Moreover, the bottom of the rear end of the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1 is also provided with a subframe rear mounting point 5 for fixedly mounting the rear end of the front subframe. At this time, the subframe front mounting point 4, the subframe middle mounting point 3 and the subframe rear mounting point 5 are arranged to ensure the stability of the connection between the front subframe and the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1.
[0059] In the embodiment, the subframe middle mounting point 3 is located below the region where the plurality of suspension mounting points 2 are located. Specifically, the subframe middle mounting point 3 can be located below the region where the first suspension mounting point 21 is located, or can be located below the region where the second suspension mounting point 22 is located. It should be noted here that the region where the plurality of suspension mounting points 2 are located is also the region formed by taking each suspension mounting point 2 as a boundary, and this region is basically the region where the power assembly suspension meets the front engine bay longitudinal beam 1.
[0060] Still referring to Figures 1 to 4As shown, in this embodiment, as a preferred implementation, the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 includes an inner longitudinal beam plate 11 and an outer longitudinal beam plate 12 that are fastened together along the left-right direction of the vehicle, and a longitudinal beam cavity 10 is formed between the inner longitudinal beam plate 11 and the outer longitudinal beam plate 12. In this case, the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 includes the inner longitudinal beam plate 11 and the outer longitudinal beam plate 12 that are fastened together, and the longitudinal beam cavity 10 formed between the inner longitudinal beam plate 11 and the outer longitudinal beam plate 12, which not only facilitates the processing and fabrication of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1, but also helps to improve the structural strength of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1.
[0061] Specifically, and then combined Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the cross-sections of both the inner plate 11 and the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam are U-shaped. The inner plate 11 has a first connecting flange 1103 at both its upper and lower ends, and the outer plate 12 has a second connecting flange 1201 at both its upper and lower ends. The inner plate 11 and the outer plate 12 are fastened together and welded together via the first connecting flange 1103 and the second connecting flange 1201 at the same ends, forming a longitudinal beam cavity 10 between the inner plate 11 and the outer plate 12.
[0062] The structure of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12 in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown in the preferred embodiment, in this example, a first recess 121 for avoiding the tire is provided on the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam, and a first reinforcing rib 1211 extending along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle is provided at the first recess 121. In this case, providing the first recess 121 on the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam can, on the one hand, provide avoidance space for the tire, and on the other hand, facilitate the induction of collapse and energy absorption of the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam during a collision. Moreover, providing the first reinforcing rib 1211 at the first recess 121 can increase the energy absorption capacity of the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam during a collision.
[0063] In specific implementation, the first recess 121 is located near the front end of the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam. Multiple first reinforcing ribs 1211 are provided at the first recess 121, and all multiple first reinforcing ribs 1211 extend along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. In this case, the provision of multiple first reinforcing ribs 1211 can further increase the energy absorption capacity of the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam during a collision. It is worth noting that the number of first reinforcing ribs 1211 can be one, two, or more; this embodiment does not impose any limitation on this.
[0064] On the basis of the first recess 121 being arranged, in the embodiment, a first collapsing rib 122 extending along the up-down direction of the whole vehicle is arranged on the longitudinal beam outer plate 12. The arrangement of the first collapsing rib 122 is conducive to inducing the energy absorption of the collapsing of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12. In specific implementation, the first collapsing rib 122 is arranged close to the first recess 121. In this way, the first collapsing rib 122 and the first recess 121 cooperate together, which can further improve the energy absorption effect of the collapsing of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12.
[0065] In addition, on the basis of the first recess 121, the first reinforcing rib 1211 and the first collapsing rib 122 being arranged, in the embodiment, a second recess 123 for avoiding the air spring is also arranged on the longitudinal beam outer plate 12. The arrangement of the second recess 123 on the longitudinal beam outer plate 12 not only provides a space for avoiding the air spring, but also is conducive to inducing the energy absorption of the collapsing of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12 in a collision.
[0066] In specific implementation, the second recess 123 is located behind the first recess 121. In this way, the first recess 121 and the second recess 123 are arranged, and cooperate with the first collapsing rib 122 arranged close to the first recess 121, which can further be conducive to inducing the energy absorption of the collapsing of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12, thereby being conducive to inducing the energy absorption of the collapsing of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 in a collision. The first reinforcing rib 1211 arranged in cooperation can further increase the energy absorption capacity of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 in a collision.
[0067] Referring to FIGS. Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , in the embodiment, a second reinforcing rib 1101 extending along the front-rear direction of the whole vehicle is arranged on the longitudinal beam inner plate 11, and a plurality of second collapsing ribs 1102 extending along the up-down direction of the whole vehicle are arranged on the longitudinal beam inner plate 11. At least part of the second collapsing ribs 1102 are connected with the second reinforcing rib 1101 in interlacing. At this time, the arrangement of the second reinforcing rib 1101 can increase the energy absorption capacity of the longitudinal beam inner plate 11 in a collision, and the arrangement of the second collapsing rib 1102 is conducive to inducing the energy absorption of the collapsing of the longitudinal beam inner plate 11, thereby enhancing the energy absorption capacity of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 and being conducive to inducing the energy absorption of the collapsing.
[0068] In specific implementation, the second reinforcing rib 1101 extends along the front-rear direction of the whole vehicle, and the second collapsing rib 1102 is three second collapsing ribs arranged at intervals, each of which extends along the up-down direction of the whole vehicle. Among them, the front second collapsing rib 1102 and the middle second collapsing rib 1102 are connected with the second reinforcing rib 1101.
[0069] It can be understood that, in addition to the three provided above, the second contraction rib 1102 can also be provided as two, four or more. Furthermore, among the multiple second contraction ribs 1102, some of the second contraction ribs 1102 are interwoven with the second reinforcing rib 1101, or all of the second contraction ribs 1102 are interwoven with the second reinforcing rib 1101.
[0070] In some feasible embodiments, as a preferred implementation, in this embodiment, a reinforcing structure is provided at the root position of the rear end of the outer longitudinal beam 12 and at the root position of the rear end of the inner longitudinal beam 11. The reinforcing structure includes a protrusion 124 extending along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the protrusion 124 extending rearward to the end at the root position, and is composed of multiple protrusions spaced apart in the vertical direction of the vehicle.
[0071] In terms of specific structure, Figure 1 and Figure 6 The following example illustrates the reinforcement structure installed at the root of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12. Viewed from the front-rear direction of the vehicle, the root of the rear end of the longitudinal beam outer plate 12 gradually slopes outwards towards the vehicle body, forming a reinforcement structure at the root. Specifically, this includes multiple protrusions 124 extending along the front-rear direction of the vehicle, spaced apart in the vertical direction. Each protrusion 124 extends rearward to the rear end of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam, i.e., the end of the aforementioned root position. The installation of the protrusions 124 not only enhances the structural strength and rigidity of the root of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1, but also helps to ensure that the root of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 does not deform, thus improving the stability of the passenger compartment.
[0072] It should be noted that the root position of the inner plate 11 of the longitudinal beam and the reinforcing structure thereon are the same as the root position and the reinforcing structure of the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam. For details, please refer to the design of the outer plate 12 of the longitudinal beam.
[0073] Depend on Figure 7 , Figure 8 and combined Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, a first reinforcing plate 111 connected to the inner plate 11 of the longitudinal beam is also provided inside the longitudinal beam cavity 10. The first reinforcing plate 111 extends along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and the cross-section of the first reinforcing plate 111 is "U"-shaped, forming a cavity 20 between it and the inner plate 11 of the longitudinal beam. At this time, the arrangement of the first reinforcing plate 111 and the cavity 20 is beneficial to improving the structural strength and rigidity of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1.
[0074] It is understandable that, in addition to the reinforcing structures being provided at the root position of the rear end of the outer plate 12 and the root position of the rear end of the inner plate 11, the reinforcing structure may also be provided only at the root position of the rear end of the outer plate 12 or only at the root position of the rear end of the inner plate 11.
[0075] As a preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, the first reinforcing plate 111 is provided with a third reinforcing rib 1111 extending along the front-rear direction of the vehicle. The third reinforcing rib 1111 provided on the first reinforcing plate 111 is conducive to increasing the energy absorption capacity of the first reinforcing plate 111 in a collision. Moreover, the first reinforcing plate 111 is also provided with a third collapse rib 1112 extending along the up-down direction of the vehicle. The third collapse rib 1112 is conducive to inducing the collapse energy absorption of the first reinforcing plate 111. At the same time, the third reinforcing rib 1111 and the third collapse rib 1112 are provided on the first reinforcing plate 111 to form different functional areas, which is conducive to improving the overall performance of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1.
[0076] It is worth mentioning that, in addition to being provided with the third reinforcing rib 1111 and the third collapse rib 1112 on the first reinforcing plate 111, it is also possible to only provide the third reinforcing rib 1111 on the first reinforcing plate 111, or only provide the third collapse rib 1112 on the first reinforcing plate 111, which is also acceptable.
[0077] On the basis of the first reinforcing plate 111, as shown in Figures 7 to 9 , the second reinforcing plate 112 is connected to the longitudinal beam inner plate 11. The second reinforcing plate 112 is located in the longitudinal beam cavity 10 and is arranged close to the root position of the rear end of the longitudinal beam inner plate 11, and the rear end of the first reinforcing plate 111 is overlapped on the second reinforcing plate 112. At this time, the second reinforcing plate 112 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 111 in an overlapping manner, so that the reinforcing structure in the longitudinal beam cavity 10 is relatively continuous, which is conducive to improving the overall structural strength of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1, and the second reinforcing plate 112 is arranged close to the root position of the rear end of the longitudinal beam inner plate 11, which can increase the structural strength of the root of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 and prevent low-speed deformation.
[0078] At the same time, on the basis of the first reinforcing plate 111 and the second reinforcing plate 112, in this embodiment, the third reinforcing plate 113 is also provided at the front end of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 and located in the longitudinal beam cavity 10. As shown in Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 , the third reinforcing plate 113 is an annular structure arranged according to the cross-sectional shape of the longitudinal beam cavity 10 and is connected between the longitudinal beam inner plate 11 and the longitudinal beam outer plate 12. Such arrangement not only improves the connection reliability between the longitudinal beam inner plate 11 and the longitudinal beam outer plate 12, but also increases the structural strength of the front end of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 and prevents low-speed deformation.
[0079] In addition, in this embodiment, as shown in Figure 11As shown, the rear section 6 of the engine compartment longitudinal beam extending rearward, the torsion box 7 located on the outer side, and the middle tunnel connecting plate 8 connected to the inner side of the rear section 6 of the engine compartment longitudinal beam are also arranged below the root of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1. The rear end of the rear section 6 of the engine compartment longitudinal beam is connected to the front floor longitudinal beam, the outer side of the torsion box 7 is connected to the rocker beam, and the middle tunnel connecting plate 8 is connected to the middle tunnel. At this time, the collision force transmitted to the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 can be transmitted to the front floor longitudinal beam, the rocker beam and the middle tunnel in three directions through the rear section 6 of the engine compartment longitudinal beam, the torsion box 7 and the middle tunnel connecting plate 8, thereby facilitating the dispersion of the collision force.
[0080] The front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 of the embodiment is arranged by arranging the sub-frame mounting points below the area where the suspension mounting points 2 are located, so that the suspension mounting points 2 and the sub-frame mounting points are relatively concentrated in position, which is beneficial to the deformation and energy absorption of other positions of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 in vehicle collision, thereby helping to improve the vehicle collision safety performance.
[0081] Embodiment two
[0082] The embodiment relates to a vehicle provided with the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 described in embodiment one.
[0083] The vehicle of the embodiment is arranged by adopting the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 of embodiment one, so that the positions of the mounting points not easy to deform on the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 are relatively concentrated, which is beneficial to the deformation and energy absorption of other positions of the front engine compartment longitudinal beam 1 in vehicle collision, thereby helping to improve the vehicle collision safety performance.
