Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts, specifically to a special spare tire rack for automobiles. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most specialized vehicles have their spare tires located under the vehicle, making them difficult to retrieve when needed, sometimes requiring two people to operate. Some spare tire racks have complex structures, making the process cumbersome and hindering quick tire removal. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to address the aforementioned shortcomings by providing a dedicated spare tire carrier for automobiles. The carrier comprises a vehicle body, a bottom support fixedly connected to the rear of the vehicle body, a connecting frame connected to the bottom support via a pivot, a spare tire mounting plate fixedly mounted on the connecting frame, a pull ring fixedly mounted on the side of the spare tire mounting plate closest to the vehicle body, a winch and a pulley mounted on the vehicle body, a winch rope passing over the pulley and connected to the pull ring via a hook, a locking hole 1 on the bottom support, a locking hole 2 on the connecting frame that mates with the locking hole 1, and a mounting hole on the spare tire mounting plate that matches the spare tire.

[0004] To improve the stability of the connecting frame during vehicle operation, a limit plate is also provided on the bottom support.

[0005] To make winch operation more convenient, the winch is a self-locking winch.

[0006] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0007] This invention enables the connection frame to be retracted and extended using a winch, making it more convenient to retrieve and place the spare tire. In particular, the winch is more labor-saving when retracting the connection frame.

[0008] This utility model uses a self-locking winch. After the connecting frame is retracted, the winch can also tighten and fix the connecting frame when the vehicle is moving, effectively preventing the connecting frame from shaking and making it more stable. Attached Figure Description

[0009] The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of this application and form part of this application, illustrate exemplary embodiments and are used to explain this application, but do not constitute an undue limitation of this application. In the drawings:

[0011] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model when it is folded up.

[0012] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model after the spare tire is placed.

[0013] In the diagram: 1. Vehicle body; 2. Bottom support; 3. Limiting plate; 4. Pulley; 5. Locking hole 1; 6. Pull ring; 7. Hook; 9. Spare tire mounting plate; 10. Connecting bracket; 11. Locking hole 2; 12. Shaft; 13. Winch; 14. Mounting hole; 15. Spare tire. Detailed Implementation

[0014] The following drawings will disclose several embodiments of this utility model. For clarity, many physical details will be described in the following description. However, it should be understood that these physical details should not be used to limit this utility model. That is, in some embodiments of this utility model, these physical details are not essential. In addition, for the sake of simplicity, some conventional structures and components will be shown in the drawings in a simple schematic manner.

[0015] Furthermore, in this utility model, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" is for descriptive purposes only and does not specifically refer to any order or sequence, nor is it intended to limit the utility model. They are merely used to distinguish components or operations described with the same technical terms and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only if they are feasible for those skilled in the art. If a combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0016] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a special spare tire rack for automobiles comprises a vehicle body 1, a bottom support 2 fixedly connected to the rear of the vehicle body 1, a connecting frame 10 connected to the bottom support 2 via a pivot 12, a spare tire mounting plate 9 fixedly mounted on the connecting frame 10, a pull ring 6 fixedly mounted on the side of the spare tire mounting plate 9 near the vehicle body, a winch 13 and a pulley 4 mounted on the vehicle body 1, a winch rope on the winch 13 passing around the pulley and connected to the pull ring 6 via a hook 7, a locking hole 5 on the bottom support 2, a locking hole 11 on the connecting frame 10 that mates with the locking hole 5, and a mounting hole 14 on the spare tire mounting plate 9 that matches the spare tire 15.

[0017] Furthermore, a limit plate 3 is also provided on the bottom support 2.

[0018] Furthermore, the winch 13 is a self-locking winch.

[0019] When retracting the spare tire, turn the winch 13. The winch 13 pulls the connecting frame 10 counterclockwise around the shaft 12 via the winch rope. When the connecting frame 10 moves to the limit plate 3, stop turning the winch 13. At the same time, insert the pin into the locking hole 1 5 and the locking hole 2 11. Since the winch 13 is a self-locking winch, the connecting frame 10 can be more stable when the vehicle is running through the combined action of the winch 13, the pin and the limit plate 3. At the same time, the design of the winch 13 makes the process of retracting the spare tire 15 easier, and one person can easily complete the retraction and fixing of the spare tire.

[0020] When you need to remove the spare tire, turn the winch 13 so that the winch rope is no longer tightly pulling on the connecting frame 10. Pull out the pin and pull the spare tire 15 to the right. At this time, the connecting frame 10 will rotate clockwise around the shaft 12. After rotating to the appropriate position, continue to turn the winch 13 until the winch rope is no longer taut. Separate the hook 7 from the pull ring 6, and then remove the spare tire 15.

[0021] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
