Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, specifically a lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Brazed aluminum-plastic radiators are a key component in modern automotive cooling systems. They combine the properties of both aluminum and plastic and are manufactured using a brazing process, resulting in excellent performance in terms of heat dissipation, lightweight design, and cost-effectiveness.

[0003] Lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator brackets are key support components of automotive thermal management systems, used to support brazed aluminum-plastic radiators. Traditional radiator brackets are inconvenient for adjusting the height and front-to-back position of the radiator, and during assembly, it is not convenient for the radiator to be stably connected to the piping system, making them relatively inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator bracket.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator bracket, comprising a base, a support assembly, and a height adjustment assembly. The support assembly includes two sets of symmetrically arranged sliding frames, a crossbeam, studs, and a first handle. The base has mounting grooves at its four corners. The crossbeam is T-shaped. The center of the base also has a sliding groove adapted to the bottom wall of the crossbeam. A stud is rotatably disposed in the sliding groove. The stud passes through the base and is connected to the first handle. A threaded hole is provided below the crossbeam for threaded connection with the stud.

[0008] The height adjustment assembly includes a U-shaped cover, a worm gear, a worm, a second handle, a lifting frame, and a screw. The worm and two sets of worm gears are installed inside the cover. A lifting groove is provided on the side of the sliding frame near the center of the base. A screw is rotatably installed in the lifting groove. The top of the screw passes through the cover and is connected to the center of the worm gear. The worm passes through the cover and is connected to the second handle. The lifting frame extends into the lifting groove and is threadedly connected to the screw.

[0009] To facilitate stable driving of the first and second handles, this utility model is improved by providing friction textures on both the first and second handles.

[0010] To ensure the stability of the crossbeam's movement, this utility model is improved by providing an inverted T-shaped guide block below the crossbeam, and a guide groove adapted to the guide block on the base.

[0011] Preferably, the lifting frame is also provided with a mounting plate for positioning the radiator.

[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator bracket, which has the following advantages:

[0014] This lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator bracket utilizes a clever threaded drive design in its support components to achieve flexible adjustment of the radiator's front and rear positions. The crossbeam is T-shaped and fits into the sliding groove in the center of the base. This shape design can both support the weight of the components above and provide guidance for horizontal movement. The stud rotates within the sliding groove, and rotating the first handle with friction grooves increases friction, facilitating the application of force. The stud drives the crossbeam to move linearly along its axis. Because the inverted T-shaped guide block below the crossbeam fits tightly with the guide groove of the base, it restricts the movement of the crossbeam in both vertical and horizontal directions, allowing it to slide smoothly back and forth, thus precisely controlling the front and rear position of the radiator.

[0015] The height adjustment component relies on a worm gear transmission system to achieve efficient and precise height control. Inside the housing, the worm gear rotates under the drive of the second handle, meshing with two sets of worm gears, driving the worm gears to rotate, which in turn causes the screw to rotate synchronously. The screw and the lifting frame are connected by threads. When the screw rotates, the lifting frame will smoothly rise or fall along the screw axis within the lifting groove of the sliding frame. In this way, the height of the radiator can be flexibly changed to meet the installation height space reserved in the engine compartment of different vehicle models, with effortless operation and precise height control.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 A lightweight automotive brazed aluminum-plastic radiator bracket includes a base 1, a support assembly, and a height adjustment assembly. The support assembly includes two symmetrically arranged sliding frames 2, a crossbeam 3, studs 4, and a first handle 5. The base 1 has mounting grooves at its four corners. The crossbeam 3 is T-shaped. The center of the base 1 also has a sliding groove that matches the bottom wall of the crossbeam 3. A stud 4 is rotatably installed in the sliding groove. The stud 4 passes through the base 1 and is connected to the first handle 5. A threaded hole is provided below the crossbeam 3 for threaded connection with the stud 4.

[0023] The core of the support assembly lies in adjusting the front and rear positions of the radiator through threaded transmission. The base 1 serves as the foundation of the entire assembly, with mounting slots at its four corners for securing the bracket to the vehicle. At the center of the base 1 is a groove that adapts to the bottom wall of the crossbeam 3, into which the T-shaped crossbeam 3 is placed. This T-shaped design allows the crossbeam 3 to stably support the weight of the components above while also sliding along the groove. The stud 4 is installed within the groove and extends through the base 1, connecting to the first handle 5. When the operator grips and rotates the first handle 5, which has friction grooves 13, the friction grooves 13 increase the friction between the hand and the handle, making rotation easier, and the stud 4 rotates accordingly. Since the crossbeam 3 has a threaded hole at its bottom that connects to the stud 4, according to the principle of threaded transmission, when the stud 4 rotates, the crossbeam 3 will move horizontally in a straight line along the axis of the stud 4 within the groove of the base 1.

[0024] The inverted T-shaped guide block 12 below the crossbeam 3 cooperates with the guide groove on the base 1, playing a crucial role in stabilizing and guiding. The guide block 12 is embedded in the guide groove, restricting the degree of freedom of movement of the crossbeam 3 in both vertical and horizontal directions, preventing the crossbeam 3 from swaying up and down or shifting left and right during its forward and backward movement, ensuring that the crossbeam 3, carrying the heat sink, can be adjusted to its forward and backward position smoothly and accurately, thus facilitating precise docking with the piping system;

[0025] The height adjustment assembly includes a U-shaped cover 6, a worm gear 7, a worm 8, a second handle 9, a lifting frame 10, and a screw 11. The worm 8 and two sets of worm gears 7 are disposed inside the cover 6. A lifting groove is provided on the side of the sliding frame 2 near the center of the base 1. The screw 11 is rotatably disposed in the lifting groove. The upper part of the screw 11 passes through the cover 6 and is connected to the center of the worm gear 7. The worm 8 passes through the cover 6 and is connected to the second handle 9. The lifting frame 10 extends into the lifting groove and is threadedly connected to the screw 11.

[0026] Inside the U-shaped cover 6, a worm 8 meshes with two sets of worm gears 7, and one end of the worm 8 is connected to a second handle 9. When the second handle 9 is turned, the worm 8 begins to rotate. Relying on the transmission characteristics of the worm gears 7 and worm 8, the two sets of worm gears 7 rotate synchronously in opposite directions, and the screw 11 connected to the center of the worm gears 7 also rotates accordingly. The screw 11 is installed in the lifting groove of the sliding frame 2, and its upper part passes through the cover 6. The lifting frame 10 extends into the lifting groove and is connected to the screw 11 by a thread. Based on the threaded transmission, as the screw 11 rotates, the lifting frame 10 will move vertically up or down along the axis of the screw 11 in the lifting groove, thereby flexibly adjusting the height of the radiator to adapt to the installation height requirements of the engine compartment of different vehicle models. Since the worm gear 7 and worm 8 transmission has a self-locking characteristic, the radiator can remain stable after being adjusted to a suitable height and will not slip off at will. The lifting frame 10 is also provided with a mounting plate 14 for positioning the radiator to fix the radiator, which is convenient to operate.

[0027] When installing the radiator, the lifting frame 10 can be positioned at a higher position. Then, the radiator is connected to the mounting plate 14 with bolts. The height of the lifting frame 10 is then adjusted, and the radiator is fed forward and backward by the first handle 5 to complete the assembly and connection of the pipeline.
