Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to vehicle safety technology, specifically to a resilient energy-absorbing underbody protection device for freight vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] Trucks are vehicles used to transport goods, with large cargo space and load-bearing capacity. They are widely used in logistics, transportation, construction and other fields. Trucks need to be equipped with anti-collision devices at the front, rear, left and right. The rear anti-collision device of a truck, also known as the "life protection barrier", is a safety protection device designed to improve the driving safety of trucks. The anti-collision device is mainly installed at the rear of the truck to prevent other vehicles (such as cars) from directly hitting and going under the rear of the truck or being rolled under the truck from the side in a rear-end collision, thereby effectively reducing personal injury and vehicle damage. The existing rear underrun protection devices of trucks mainly play a blocking role and do not have the function of energy absorption. The energy consumption of the impact is mainly the reduction of the deformation of the impacting vehicle.
[0003] Existing elastic energy-absorbing rear underrun protection devices for freight vehicles typically rely solely on their own design and material strength to withstand direct impacts from other vehicles in rear-end collisions. However, when vehicles are traveling at high speeds on highways or national roads and a rear-end collision occurs, the two vehicles can only absorb and disperse the impact energy through deformation. Excessive deformation of the colliding vehicle can lead to the risk of occupants being trapped and doors being unable to be opened, thus causing greater property damage and increasing casualties. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an elastic energy-absorbing rear protection device for freight vehicles, which provides buffering and reduces the degree of vehicle deformation when an impact occurs, so as to solve the problem that the rear protection device of the truck can only rely on its own design strength and material strength to resist the direct impact of other vehicles in the rear-end collision, resulting in large vehicle deformation.

The adjusting frame 13 can move inside the tripod 2 15. The adjusting frame 13 has a protrusion on the side near the connecting plate 2 17 so that it can abut against the connecting plate 2 17 to enhance the overall load-bearing capacity of the device. The bearing plate 23 is a high-strength steel plate. The bearing plate 23 is connected to the connecting plate 12 and the connecting plate 2 17 by bolting or welding. The bearing plate 23 is also made of high-strength metal to improve the load-bearing capacity of the device during impact. The fixing plate 1 21 is fixedly connected to the bearing plate 23 by welding. The plug plate assembly 3 is used to connect the connecting mechanism 2 and fill the connection gap between two adjacent connecting mechanisms 2, so that the device can adjust the installation size while ensuring the load-bearing capacity of the device. The elastic component 4 is used to provide a certain buffer when an impact occurs and to rotate to release a certain impact force.

At the same time, the reinforcing ribs are also used to enhance the tightness of the connection with the rubber roller 41. The rubber roller 41 is made of rubber material, which can buffer the force when an impact occurs.
[0039] Example 2:
[0040] Please see Figures 4-6This embodiment provides a technical solution based on embodiment one: the plug plate assembly 3 includes a plug plate 31 for connecting two adjacent fixed plates 21 and a plug plate 32 for connecting two adjacent fixed plates 22. The plug plate 31 includes a plurality of plug blocks 312, which are disposed between two adjacent fixed plates 21. A T-shaped protrusion is provided on one side of the plug block 312. The plug block 312 is engaged with a positioning block 311 through the T-shaped protrusion. An elliptical groove is symmetrically opened through the outer side of the positioning block 311.

Each second plug 321 has a protruding structure on the side away from the fixing plate 22. These protrusions cooperate with the slots on the positioning block 322 to achieve a stable snap-fit connection. The outer side of the positioning block 322 has symmetrical grooves, which not only enhances its structural strength but also facilitates bolt connection with the fixing plate 22, ensuring the stability and reliability of the entire second plug 32 structure.
[0044] Working principle: When in use, the operator installs the fixed triangular bracket 1 under the rear of the truck, so that the elastic component 4 faces the rear of the truck. The gap of the connecting mechanism 2 is filled by the plug plate component 3. When an impact occurs, the rubber roller 41 buffers the impact force. At the same time, the rubber roller 41 and the rigid roller 42 rotate around the rotating shaft 43 to buffer the impact.
