Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, specifically to a headlight mounting bracket for automobiles. Background Technology

[0002] Headlight mounting brackets serve to secure headlights within a vehicle, ensuring a stable installation on the car body. Located at the front of the vehicle, they protect the headlights mounted within and typically possess high rigidity.

[0003] When a vehicle collides with a pedestrian while in motion, the front of the vehicle usually hits the pedestrian. Due to the rigidity of the headlight mounting bracket itself, the impact on the pedestrian is relatively large. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problem that existing automotive headlight mounting brackets, due to their high rigidity, cause significant impact on pedestrians during collisions, this invention provides a headlight mounting bracket for automobiles.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a vehicle headlight mounting bracket, including a headlight mounting bracket body and a lamp cover. The lamp cover includes a lamp cover body and a connecting part. The connecting part is disposed on the rear end side of the lamp cover body. A connecting groove is provided at the front end of the headlight mounting bracket body. The connecting part is inserted into the connecting groove. The lamp cover is detachably and fixedly installed on the headlight mounting bracket body by means of a locking device. A notch is formed on the side of the connecting part near the headlight mounting bracket body. The notch extends from the side of the connecting part near the headlight mounting bracket body to the opposite side.

[0006] In an embodiment of this utility model, there are multiple notches, which are evenly spaced along the length of the connection.

[0007] In an embodiment of this utility model, the notch has a V-shaped cross-section, and the opening size of the notch gradually decreases from one side adjacent to the headlight mounting bracket body to the opposite side.

[0008] In an embodiment of this utility model, the lampshade further includes a push-pull portion, which extends vertically upward from the upper end surface of the lampshade body.

[0009] In an embodiment of this utility model, the push-pull part is located at the position where the lampshade body and the notch meet.

[0010] In an embodiment of this utility model, the push-pull part is composed of multiple push-pull parts spliced ​​together. Adjacent pairs of push-pull parts have a splicing gap reserved at the splicing point. Adjacent pairs of push-pull parts are fixedly connected by a connecting block. The multiple splicing gaps are respectively located at the center line of multiple notches.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] By employing the aforementioned headlight mounting bracket, a notch is formed at the connection point on the lamp cover to absorb the impact caused by external forces. When a pedestrian impacts the lamp cover on the headlight mounting bracket of the vehicle, the force exerted by the pedestrian is transmitted to the notch on the lamp cover, causing the connection point of the notch to break and absorb the external impact, thereby reducing the impact on the pedestrian. In addition, since this solution does not require the addition of an extra component to apply the shock-absorbing structure to the headlight mounting bracket, it has the advantage of realizing the shock-absorbing structure without increasing manufacturing costs.

[0021] 200 - Headlight mounting bracket body. Detailed Implementation

[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0023] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a vehicle headlight mounting bracket 10, including a headlight mounting bracket body 200 and a lampshade 100. The lampshade 100 includes a lampshade body 101 and a connecting part 103. The connecting part 103 is disposed on the rear end side of the lampshade body 101. The front end of the headlight mounting bracket body 200 is provided with a connecting groove. The lampshade can be inserted into the connecting groove of the headlight mounting bracket body 200 through the connecting part 103, thereby achieving the positioning and installation of the lampshade on the headlight mounting bracket body 200. The headlight mounting bracket body 200 itself is fixedly installed on the vehicle body. After the lampshade is positioned and installed on the headlight mounting bracket body 200 through the connecting part 103, the two are also fixed by a locking device, such as a buckle or screw.

[0024] A notch 104 is formed on the connecting part 103. The notch 104 is located on the side of the connecting part 103 near the headlight mounting bracket body 200. That is, the notch 104 is located on the inner side of the connecting part 103 and extends from the inner side of the connecting part 103 to the opposite outer side.

[0025] When a vehicle equipped with the above-described headlight mounting bracket in this embodiment is in motion, the impact on pedestrians can be reduced when the vehicle touches the headlight cover.

[0026] Specifically, when an impact force is applied to the front part of the lamp cover in the lamp mounting bracket, the stress can be concentrated on the notch 104 formed in the connecting part 103, thereby causing the connecting part 103 to crack at the notch 104. That is, the connecting part 103 in the lamp cover can be provided to cause cracks in the part formed by the notch 104, so that the lamp cover can absorb the impact caused by the external force. Therefore, the lamp mounting bracket in this embodiment can reduce the impact of pedestrians and other objects that are collision targets.

[0027] In some embodiments, by appropriately selecting the position, cross-sectional shape, depth, and number of notches 104 on the connecting portion 103, a predictable degree of damage can be induced at the corresponding position of the lamp mounting bracket when subjected to an external impact. It is understood that, for example, more notches 104 can be provided at the front portion of the lamp cover (i.e., away from the lamp mounting position), and the depth of the notches 104 can be greater than the depth of notches 104 at other positions on the connecting portion 103. Furthermore, in this embodiment, since no additional separate component is needed as a shock-absorbing structure in the lamp cover, it has the advantage of not increasing manufacturing costs.

[0028] In some embodiments, there are multiple notches 104, and the multiple notches 104 are evenly spaced along the length direction of the connecting portion 103. When multiple notches 104 are provided, it has the advantage of dispersing the stress caused by impact.

[0029] See attached document Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the shape of the notch 104 is a "V" shaped cross-sectional structure when viewed from above, and the opening size of the notch 104 gradually decreases from one side adjacent to the headlight mounting bracket body 200 to the opposite side, that is, the opening size of the notch 104 gradually decreases from the inside to the outside.

[0030] See attached document Figure 2 To be continued Figure 4 As shown, the lamp cover also includes a push-pull portion 102, which extends vertically upward from the upper end face of the lamp cover body 101. The push-pull portion 102 allows the installer to push the lamp cover onto the headlight mounting bracket during installation. By pushing the push-pull portion 102, the installer can insert the connecting portion 103 on the lamp cover into the connecting slot on the headlight mounting bracket, thus facilitating the installation of the lamp cover onto the headlight mounting bracket.

[0031] See attached document Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the push-pull portion 102 is located at the junction of the lamp cover body 101 and the notch 104, that is, the push-pull portion 102 extends vertically upward at the junction of the lamp cover body 101 and the notch 104. This design allows the connecting portion 103 on the lamp cover body 101 to be inserted into the connecting groove when the push-pull portion 102 is in contact with the connecting groove on the vehicle lamp mounting bracket body 200.

[0032] Continue to refer to the appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the push-pull part 102 is spliced ​​together from multiple push-pull parts 1021. A splicing gap 105 is reserved at the splicing point of an adjacent pair of push-pull parts 1021, and the adjacent pair of push-pull parts 1021 are fixedly connected by a connecting block. The multiple splicing gaps 105 are respectively located at the center line positions of multiple notches 104.

[0033] When the headlight mounting bracket is subjected to an external impact, damage occurs not only at the notch 104 on the headlight body 101, but the external impact can also be transmitted through multiple splicing gaps 105 on the push-pull section. That is, after the external impact load is transmitted to the headlight body 101, the external load will act on the push-pull section. Since the adjacent sub-push-pull sections 1021 are only partially connected by connecting blocks, for example, only at the center of a pair of adjacent sub-push-pull sections 1021, and the upper and lower parts of the splicing gaps 105 between the adjacent sub-push-pull sections 1021 are open, when the external load acts on the headlight body 101, the gaps at the joints between the adjacent sub-push-pull sections 1021 result in lower connection strength compared to other parts. Therefore, under the action of the external impact load, the splicing gaps 105 on the push-pull section are prone to breakage. The sub-push-pull section 1021 that breaks and moves away then absorbs the impact load, thereby absorbing the external impact in the entire headlight and providing a buffering effect.
