When the parts are heavy, a downward pressure will be generated, which may cause the axle to be deformed or broken. After the axle breaks, the two connecting plates will immediately separate, causing the parts to separate and posing a certain danger.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A hinge structure for automotive components includes a main mating block, a mating block horizontally disposed on one side of the main mating block, adjusting screws symmetrically engaged on the sides of the main mating block and the mating block, a mounting side plate mating to one side of the main mating block and the mating block, fixing through holes evenly distributed on the side of the mounting side plate, a horizontal side groove horizontally formed on the side of the mating block away from the mounting side plate, a blocking plate horizontally engaged on the inner side of the horizontal side groove, and a flipping connecting rod horizontally welded to one side of the main mating block, the flipping connecting rod being horizontally engaged at the end away from the main mating block. The device includes a supporting connecting rod, with a fixed shaft inserted into the top surface of the supporting connecting rod and a connecting bolt inserted through the side of the supporting connecting rod. The inner side of the horizontal side groove has evenly spaced internal threaded holes. Limiting grooves are symmetrically formed on the top and bottom surfaces of the inner side of the horizontal side groove. A movable side groove is formed on one side of the main mating block and the mating block. An inserting side block is fixedly welded to one side of the mounting side plate. A supporting sleeve groove is horizontally formed at the inner end of the horizontal side groove. A blocking end plate is vertically engaged on the inner side of the supporting sleeve groove. A top-mounting spring is horizontally engaged on the inner side of the supporting sleeve groove.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the adjusting screws are arranged in groups of four, symmetrically and parallelly snapped together on the sides of the main mating block and the mating block near the four corners, and one end of each adjusting screw extends to the inner side of the movable side groove, with the extended end threadedly connected to the screw hole on the side of the insertion side block near the four corners.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the center position of the side of the mounting side plate is all connected to the opening end of the movable side groove, there are multiple fixing through holes, and the multiple fixing through holes are all opened through the side of the mounting side plate near the edge, the horizontal side groove is opened horizontally at the center line of the side of the mating block, and one end of the horizontal side groove extends horizontally through the side wall of the mating block to the outside in an open shape.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the two sides of the blocking plate are horizontally snapped onto the inner side of the limiting groove, and one end of the blocking plate is fixedly welded to the center of the side of the blocking end plate. One end of the flipping connecting rod is fixedly connected to the center of the side of the main docking block, and the other end is horizontally inserted into the inner side of the horizontal side groove.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model: one end of the support link is sleeved on the outer side of the protrusion at one end of the flip link, the support link and the flip link are connected by a fixed shaft, the connecting bolt is inserted through the through hole at the end of the support link away from the flip link, and the extension end is fixedly connected to the inner side of the internal thread hole, and the limiting channels are arranged in parallel and superimposed on each other in the inner side of the horizontal side groove near the opening side.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model: one end of the plug-in side block is fixedly connected to the center of the side of the mounting side plate, and the other end is plugged into the inner side of the movable side groove. The support sleeve groove is opened at the position away from the opening end of the horizontal side groove, and one end of the top spring is horizontally connected to the side of the blocking end plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This invention involves placing the main mating block and the mating block on the side of the vehicle component. The side plate is fixed in place by bolts passing through the fixing holes. After the components are brought close together to a specified distance, the side-mounted flipping linkage drives the support linkage to insert into the horizontal side groove. The connecting bolts are then threaded and fixed inside the internal threaded holes. The connection distance between the main mating block and the mating block can be adjusted according to the position of the internal threaded holes. After installation, the adjusting screw on the side can be rotated, allowing the adjusting screw to move along the inserting side block within the movable side groove, thus adjusting the height of the mounting side plate to meet the connection angle adjustment requirements of the components. When the parts are flipped, the flipping link can flip at one end of the support link, thereby squeezing one end of the blocking plate and moving it horizontally into the support sleeve groove. This squeezes the top spring and creates a complete seal on the opening of the horizontal side groove. In the event of a breakage of the fixed shaft, since both the flipping link and the support link are inserted into the horizontal side groove, a stable support effect can be achieved, preventing the main connecting block from easily detaching. This effectively ensures the safety of the parts connection. The multi-directional adjustable structure allows it to be adjusted to a designated position after installation. Furthermore, the fully enclosed support structure provides support protection against falling in the event of a breakage. Attached Figure Description
