Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive technology, and in particular to a rear protective device for automobiles made of glass fiber reinforced composite material. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, traditional heavy-duty vehicle rear protection systems are mostly made of steel, which is heavy and not conducive to the overall vehicle lightweighting. In addition, traditional heavy-duty vehicle rear protection systems mostly use a welded structure of crossbeams and brackets, which is rigid, but cannot effectively absorb energy in the event of a collision, resulting in a large impact on the occupants of the vehicle. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a glass fiber reinforced composite material automotive rear protection device to address the shortcomings of existing technologies.

[0004] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution:

[0005] A rear protective device for automobiles made of glass fiber reinforced composite material includes a crossbeam and a bracket; the crossbeam is an integrally formed hollow tube and is made entirely of glass fiber reinforced composite material; the bracket is a welded steel structure, and several brackets are fixedly connected to the crossbeam.

[0006] Preferably, the bracket is bolted to the crossbeam.

[0007] Preferably, the glass fiber reinforced composite material comprises resin and glass cloth; the resin accounts for 30% and the glass cloth accounts for 70%.

[0008] Preferably, the end cross-section of the crossbeam is an "I" shaped structure.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0010] The crossbeam of this utility model is an integrally formed hollow tube, and the whole is made of glass fiber reinforced composite material; it has the advantages of light weight and high strength, and achieves weight reduction while meeting performance requirements, with significant lightweight effect;

[0011] The crossbeam and bracket of this utility model are connected by bolts, which can effectively absorb energy after a collision, reduce the impact on the occupants of the vehicle, and improve the overall safety performance of the vehicle. Attached Figure Description

[0012] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of this utility model;

[0013] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the crossbeam structure of this utility model;

[0014] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the beam structure of this utility model from another angle.

[0015] In the diagram, 1 is a crossbeam; 2 is a support frame. Detailed Implementation

[0016] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a glass fiber reinforced composite material automotive rear protection device includes a crossbeam 1 and a bracket 2.

[0017] The crossbeam 1 is a one-piece hollow tube, manufactured using a pultrusion molding process, and is made entirely of glass fiber reinforced composite material. The density of the glass fiber reinforced composite material is 1.8-2.0 kg / cm3, while the density of the original steel material is 7.85 kg / m3. Under the same volume, the weight is only 1 / 4 of that of metal, resulting in a significant lightweight effect. At the same time, it has good impact resistance, which is beneficial for absorbing collision energy.

[0018] The support 2 is a steel welded structure, and several supports 2 are fixedly connected to the crossbeam 1.

[0019] Furthermore, the bracket 2 is bolted to the crossbeam 1. Preferably, there are two brackets 2, and the left and right brackets 2 are bolted together to fix the crossbeam 1 to the vehicle frame. After a collision, they can effectively absorb energy, reduce the impact on the occupants of the vehicle, and improve the overall safety performance of the vehicle.

[0020] Furthermore, the glass fiber reinforced composite material includes resin and glass cloth; the resin accounts for 30% and the glass cloth accounts for 70%.

[0021] Furthermore, the end section of the crossbeam 1 is an "I" shaped structure; since the crossbeam 1 is made of a one-piece hollow tube, in this example, the top, middle and bottom of the crossbeam 1 form five hollow structures. The crossbeam 1 is provided with mounting holes for mounting the car frame and left and right brackets, as well as shock absorption holes; the weight reduction and lightweight effect are significant.
