Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle parts, and in particular to a pipe clamp assembly for a vehicle and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] The wiring harnesses on the vehicle chassis are crucial components of the automotive electrical system. They are responsible for transmitting electrical energy and signals, ensuring the normal operation of various vehicle systems. The chassis contains pipes and pre-drilled holes for the wiring harnesses to pass through. During wading, if the waterproofing measures for the chassis wiring harnesses are inadequate, moisture can seep into the vehicle interior through these pre-drilled holes, wetting the interior carpets and potentially causing more serious electrical malfunctions. Currently, existing technology uses at least two components to secure the pipes and seal the pre-drilled holes. However, this method is costly due to the large number of components required, necessitating two separate units. Furthermore, because the component sealing the pre-drilled holes is separate, gaps or even detachment can easily occur between the component and the pre-drilled holes during vehicle bumps and vibrations, leading to water leakage.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a pipe clamp for vehicles that can not only secure pipes but also prevent water from seeping into the pre-drilled holes of the wiring harness. Utility Model Content

[0021] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0022] This utility model discloses a pipe clamp assembly for vehicles.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 A pipe clamp assembly for a vehicle includes a cable tie and a buckle that seals a preset hole in the vehicle body structure. The buckle is disposed on the cable tie, which has a functional part 3 for fixing the pipe. The pipe is fixed by the functional part 3 of the cable tie, and the preset hole is sealed by the buckle, so that the pipe clamp assembly can not only fix the pipe, but also prevent water from seeping into the vehicle body through the preset hole of the wiring harness.

[0024] To achieve neat arrangement and effective fixation of the wiring harness, a series of pre-set holes are typically made on the vehicle chassis according to the wiring harness routing and the location of the equipment to be connected. In this embodiment, the pre-set holes in the vehicle body structure are the pre-set holes made on the vehicle chassis.

[0025] In this embodiment, the buckle has a positioning head 4 and a mounting base 6. The cable tie passes through the mounting base 6. The positioning head 4 extends into the preset hole, so that the positioning head 4 is located in the preset hole. When the positioning head 4 is installed in the preset hole, the mounting base 6 presses the waterproof component 5 against the end face of the vehicle body structure near the mounting base 6 at the preset hole for sealing. During installation, the installation of the mounting assembly by installing the positioning head 4 in the preset hole ensures close contact between the waterproof component 5 and the preset hole, effectively preventing water from seeping into the vehicle body structure and improving the waterproof effect.

[0026] In other embodiments, the buckle is also installed in other parts of the vehicle body structure. For example, an additional connecting part is provided above the preset hole, the buckle is installed in the connecting part, and the bottom of the buckle seals the preset hole.

[0027] In this embodiment, the positioning head 4 has a snap-fit ​​part 41. After passing through the preset hole, the snap-fit ​​part 41 abuts against the end face of the preset hole on the chassis away from the mounting base 6, which greatly increases the friction between the positioning head 4 and the vehicle chassis, thereby effectively preventing the positioning head 4 from loosening or falling off due to vibration or other external forces during use. The tight contact between the snap-fit ​​part 41 and the bottom of the chassis can ensure the precise alignment between the positioning head 4 and the preset hole, making the waterproof effect better.

[0028] In this embodiment, a waterproof component 5 is provided on the buckle. Further, the waterproof component 5 is a sponge, which is installed on the end of the mounting base 6 near the positioning head 4. The sponge is used to seal the end face of the preset hole. Further, the longitudinal section of the waterproof component 5 is an isosceles trapezoid, with the shorter side (upper base) of the isosceles trapezoid near the mounting base 6 and the longer side (lower base) near the preset hole. The sponge has a spontaneous expansion effect, allowing it to fit tightly against the end face of the preset hole near the positioning head 4, improving the waterproof effect. When the sponge is pressed against the preset hole, due to the characteristics of the trapezoidal structure, the sponge will experience an upward component force, resulting in upward deformation, which helps to better fix the sponge and ensures stable contact and sealing during vehicle operation. In addition, it can reduce the transmission of noise and vibration, improving the overall performance and comfort of the vehicle.

[0029] In other embodiments, the waterproof component can also be a suction cup, which is attached to the vehicle body structure around the preset hole and covers the preset hole, thereby preventing water from seeping into the vehicle. The suction function also provides additional support points for the component of this utility model, eliminating the need to set the positioning head 4 inserted into the preset hole.

[0030] In this embodiment, the cable tie includes a strip 1 and a cable tie head 2 disposed at one end of the strip 1. A functional part 3 is disposed at the cable tie head 2. The cable tie head 2 has a limiting groove 21. A buckle is inserted into the strip 1, and the other end of the strip 1 passes through the buckle and then into the limiting groove 21 to restrict the movement of the strip 1 and form a cable tie binding function. Furthermore, the limiting groove 21 and the strip 1 are respectively provided with two ratchet teeth arranged in opposite directions. The limiting groove 21 provides a sliding track for the strip 1, and then ratchet teeth opposite to those on the track are provided, so that the strip 1 can be moved forward after passing through the track, while being restricted from moving in the opposite direction. It has a one-way locking characteristic, which makes it easy to restrict the movement of the strip 1 and ensures the stability of the cable tie.

[0031] In this embodiment, the functional unit 3 includes a clamping interface 31 for fixing the pipe, and a guide portion 32 for guiding the pipe into the clamping interface is provided at the opening of the clamping interface 31. The longitudinal section of the functional unit 3 is Ω-shaped. Furthermore, the opening of the clamping interface 31 faces away from the end of the buckle. In this embodiment, the axial length of the fixed pipe is at a 90° angle to the length direction of the cable tie. The functional unit 3 can not only fix the pipe, but also further fix the pipe clamp assembly, making the fixing and positioning head 4 more stable.

[0032] In this embodiment, functional part 3 is used to fix the drain pipe; in other embodiments, it can also be used to fix other pipes.

[0033] This utility model not only fixes the drain pipe, but also installs the buckle of the pipe clamp assembly on the preset hole position. The waterproof component on the buckle prevents water from seeping into the vehicle body through the preset hole position, thus achieving a seal. This not only fixes the drain pipe, but also provides waterproofing for the preset hole position.

[0034] This utility model also provides a vehicle that includes the aforementioned pipe clamp assembly for vehicles. Since this vehicle employs all the above-described technical solutions, it possesses at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be elaborated upon further here.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
