Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not an exhaustive list of all embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] This embodiment provides a subframe mounting point structure applied to the longitudinal beam 1 of a vehicle. A floor assembly is located above the longitudinal beam 1, and the top of the longitudinal beam 1 is connected to the floor of the floor assembly. A subframe (not shown in the figure) is located below the longitudinal beam 1, and the longitudinal beam 1 and the subframe are connected by bolts. The X-axis direction is defined as the straight-line travel direction of the vehicle, the Y-axis direction is defined as the direction between the left and right sides of the vehicle, and the Z-axis direction is defined as the vertical direction from the roof to the floor of the vehicle. The longitudinal beam 1 of the vehicle is arranged along the X-axis direction, and a longitudinal beam groove 11 is provided on the longitudinal beam 1. The groove opening of the longitudinal beam groove 11 is arranged upward along the Z-axis direction, and the subframe mounting point structure is disposed in the longitudinal beam groove 11. This embodiment improves the subframe mounting point structure, which will be described in detail below.

[0031] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the subframe mounting point structure includes a first reinforcing plate 2, a second reinforcing plate 3, and a sleeve 4; the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 are connected to form a fixing cavity, the cavity wall of the fixing cavity is connected to the outer wall of the sleeve 4, the inner wall of the sleeve 4 is connected to the subframe, and the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 are respectively connected to the longitudinal beam 1.

[0032] The first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 can be connected to the longitudinal beam 1 by welding, screwing, riveting, or bonding. In this embodiment, the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 are fixed to the longitudinal beam 1 by welding. The first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 can be connected by welding, screwing, riveting, or bonding. In this embodiment, the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 are fixed by welding.

[0033] The bottom wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11 is provided with a through hole (not marked in the figure), and the opening 41 of the sleeve 4 is correspondingly provided with the through hole so that the sleeve 4 and the subframe can be connected through the through hole by the mounting component. In this embodiment, the mounting component is a bolt, the sleeve 4 is a hollow cylindrical structure, and the mounting component and the inner wall of the sleeve 4 are threaded together.

[0034] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the sleeve 4 and the cavity wall of the fixed cavity can be connected by welding, screwing, riveting or bonding. In this embodiment, the outer wall of the sleeve 4 and the cavity wall of the fixed cavity are fixed by welding.

[0035] The subframe mounting point structure also includes a third reinforcing plate 5, with the first reinforcing plate 2, the second reinforcing plate 3, and the third reinforcing plate 5 interconnected in pairs. The second reinforcing plate 3 can extend between the first reinforcing plate 2 and the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11, and the second reinforcing plate 3 can extend to the side of the third reinforcing plate 5 away from the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11.

[0036] The bottom of the third reinforcing plate 5 is connected to the bottom wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11. The third reinforcing plate 5 is provided with a first reinforcing plate 2 and a second reinforcing plate 3 respectively. The bottom of the first reinforcing plate 2 is connected to the top of the third reinforcing plate 5, and the side of the second reinforcing plate 3 is connected to the side of the third reinforcing plate 5, so as to achieve the fixed position of the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 relative to the third reinforcing plate 5.

[0037] The third reinforcing plate 5 is provided with a through hole 51, which is corresponding to a through hole. At the same time, the opening 41 of the sleeve 4 is corresponding to the through hole 51. When the sleeve 4 is fixed between the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3, the axis of the sleeve 4 is arranged along the Z-axis, and the sleeve 4 and the third reinforcing plate 5 are in a relatively perpendicular state.

[0038] The third reinforcing plate 5 extends from the bottom wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11 to the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11 on both sides. The third reinforcing plate 5 has a roughly U-shaped structure. The two sides of the third reinforcing plate 5 are attached to the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11, thereby strengthening the connection strength and support strength between the third reinforcing plate 5 and the longitudinal beam 1.

[0039] The connection between the third reinforcing plate 5 and the longitudinal beam 1 can be welding, screwing, riveting or bonding. In this embodiment, the third reinforcing plate 5 and the longitudinal beam 1 are fixed by welding.

The cavity wall of the fixed cavity is connected to the outer wall of the sleeve 4. The first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3 are respectively connected to the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11, which improves the connection strength and support stiffness of the sleeve 4 and the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3. The inner wall of the sleeve 4 is connected to the subframe by bolts, so that the gravity of the subframe can be distributed to the longitudinal beam 1 through the sleeve 4, the first reinforcing plate 2 and the second reinforcing plate 3. The overall subframe mounting point structure can meet the fatigue durability requirements.

[0041] Example 2

[0042] This embodiment optimizes the subframe mounting point structure based on the above embodiments, and in particular provides a specific implementation method for the first reinforcing plate:

[0043] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the first reinforcing plate 2 includes a first abutment 21, a support 22 and a first connecting part 23. The bottom of the first abutment 21 is connected to the support 22, and the support 22 is connected to the bottom wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11. The side of the first abutment 21 is connected to the first connecting part 23 extending in the X-axis direction, and the first connecting part 23 is connected to the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first abutment 21 and the first connecting part 23 are arranged perpendicularly, and the first abutment 21 and the supporting part 22 are arranged perpendicularly. The connection between the first abutment 21 and the supporting part 22 forms an approximately L-shaped structure. Two first connecting parts 23 are provided on the first abutment 21. The two first connecting parts 23 are respectively connected to the two side walls of the longitudinal beam groove 11, so that the first reinforcing plate 2 is stably connected and fixed in the longitudinal beam groove 11.

[0045] The first abutment 21 is provided with a first arc-shaped groove 24. The arc curvature of the first arc-shaped groove 24 is adapted to the circumferential curvature of the sleeve 4. The first arc-shaped groove 24 is part of the cavity wall that forms the fixed cavity. The first arc-shaped groove 24 can abut against the outer wall of the sleeve 4 over a large area, thereby achieving the positioning and encircling function of the sleeve 4.

[0046] Example 3

[0047] This embodiment optimizes the subframe mounting point structure based on the above embodiments, and in particular provides a specific implementation method for the second reinforcing plate:

[0048] like Figure 3 , Figure 5As shown, the second reinforcing plate 3 includes a second abutment 31, a circumferential portion 32, and a second connecting portion 33.

The circumferential portion 32 and the second connecting portion 33 extend in opposite directions. The circumferential portion 32 and the second connecting portion 33 are respectively connected to the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11.

The connection method between the first abutment 21 and the second abutment 31 can be screwing, welding, riveting, or bonding. In this embodiment, the first abutment 21 and the second abutment 31 are fixed by welding.

[0050] The first connecting part 23 is located above the third reinforcing plate 5. The circumferential part 32 extends along the X-axis to abut against the first connecting part 23. Specifically, the upper part of the circumferential part 32 extends between the first connecting part 23 and the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11. The first connecting part 23, the circumferential part 32, and the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11 are sequentially overlapped and connected. The lower part of the circumferential part 32 extends to the side of the third reinforcing plate 5 away from the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11. The circumferential part 32, the third reinforcing plate 5, and the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11 are sequentially overlapped and connected. The above overlapping connection can be achieved by screwing, welding, riveting, or bonding. In this embodiment, the overlapping connection is achieved by welding. The upper part of the circumferential part 32 is connected to the side wall of the first connecting part 23 and the longitudinal beam groove 11 respectively, while the lower part of the circumferential part 32 is connected to the side wall of the third reinforcing plate 5 and the longitudinal beam groove 11 respectively, which strengthens the connection strength and support rigidity of the first reinforcing plate 2, the second reinforcing plate 3 and the third reinforcing plate 5 locally, and greatly improves the fatigue resistance of the subframe mounting point structure.

[0051] The second connecting part 33 is connected to the side wall of the longitudinal beam groove 11. The connection method can be screwing, welding, riveting or bonding. In this embodiment, the second connecting part 33 is fixed to the longitudinal beam groove 11 by welding.

[0052] In this embodiment, the second abutment 31 has a roughly U-shaped structure. One end of the second abutment 31 is connected to two circumferential parts 32, and the other end of the second abutment 31 is connected to two second connecting parts 33. The two circumferential parts 32 are respectively connected to the two side walls of the longitudinal beam groove 11. Similarly, the two second connecting parts 33 are respectively connected to the two side walls of the longitudinal beam groove 11. The second abutment 31 is perpendicular to the circumferential parts 32 and the second connecting parts 33 respectively. The second reinforcing plate 3 is stably connected and fixed in the longitudinal beam groove 11.
