Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of radar mounting structure, in particular to a structure facilitating radar installation. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, in the process of testing the automobile auxiliary brake system, in order to ensure the safety of the vehicle when driving at high speed and detect the reliability of the auxiliary brake system, a ranging radar is usually installed on the vehicle head to monitor the distance of the front obstacle; the ranging radar can feed back the distance information to the auxiliary brake system in real time, so as to realize the functions of early warning and automatic braking. However, the existing ranging radar installation method has many problems, which not only affects the stability of the radar, but also may damage the structure of the vehicle itself.

[0003] The ranging radar of the prior art needs to install a fixed support on the vehicle head first when it is installed at the vehicle head position, and then calibrate the installation position, installation height and installation angle of the radar, so that the installation is more cumbersome and needs to be debugged. Common support installation methods include bolt fixing, welding and other methods. Among them, bolt fixing is the most commonly used method, which fixes the support by pre-drilling holes in the vehicle head and screwing in bolts, and then installs the radar on the support. Although this method is simple and easy to implement, it also has obvious disadvantages: bolt fixing needs to drill holes in the vehicle body, which not only increases the installation difficulty, but also easily leads to the reduction of the strength of the vehicle body and increases the safety hazard. And after long-term use, the bolt may loosen, causing the radar position to deviate and affecting the measurement accuracy.

[0004] Therefore, how to design a structure that can not only ensure the stable installation state of the radar but also greatly reduce the assembly difficulty is a technical problem that needs to be solved at present. Content of the utility model

[0021] Optionally, the accommodating member is provided with a second baffle at an end away from the protective cover and located between the two first baffles.

[0022] By adopting the above technical scheme, the second baffle provided at the end of the accommodating member away from the protective cover can play a limiting role, and in cooperation with the two first baffles, the radar can be prevented from being displaced or falling off when subjected to external impact.

[0023] Optionally, an opening is arranged between the second baffle and the first baffle.

[0024] By adopting the above technical scheme, the opening can facilitate an operator to push the radar out of the end away from the opening, so as to realize the disassembly of the radar. Meanwhile, the design can also ensure that the radar has good ventilation and heat dissipation performance during work, thereby improving the working stability and service life of the radar.

[0025] In summary, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0026] 1. The mounting hole on the fixing bracket corresponds to the license plate hole slot, and is used to be fixed on the vehicle together with the license plate, so as to ensure the stable installation of the structural member.

Therefore, the features defined with "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features, and in the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise specified.

[0035] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in combination with the drawings.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the structure disclosed in the embodiments of the present application is convenient for radar installation, which comprises a fixed support 10, an accommodating member 20 and a protective cover 30. The fixed support 10 is used to be fixed on a vehicle and is integrally connected with the accommodating member 20. The accommodating member 20 is used to accommodate the radar. The protective cover 30 is fixed on one end of the accommodating member 20 and is used to protect the interface of the radar.

[0037] Among them, the fixed support 10 is provided with mounting holes 11 at both ends, which are used to be opposite to the hole slots for mounting license plates, so as to be fixed on the vehicle together with the license plates. The two sides of the end surface of the accommodating member 20 are provided with first baffles 21. The first baffles 21 are provided with clamping grooves 211, which are used to slide the clamping end of the radar in order to accommodate the radar between the two first baffles 21.

[0038] Specifically, the mounting bracket 10 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which has good corrosion resistance and lightweight characteristics. Each end of the mounting bracket 10 has a mounting hole 11. These two mounting holes 11 are oblong, allowing for some adjustment space to fine-tune the radar position during installation. They also adapt to different types of vehicles, increasing the versatility of the structural components. In addition, the mounting bracket 10 is provided with multiple pre-drilled holes 12. These pre-drilled holes 12 can be used to further reinforce the mounting bracket 10 with bolts or other fasteners when necessary, improving its stability.

[0039] See Figure 1 The connection between the receiving component 20 and the fixed bracket 10 is a bent design. This design not only enhances the overall rigidity of the structure but also reduces assembly steps and improves production efficiency. In addition, the bent design also serves to avoid gaps, allowing it to adapt to the front styling of various vehicle models.

[0040] The housing 20 is a rectangular frame with two integrated first baffles 21 on both sides of one end face. The height of these two first baffles 21 is slightly higher than the maximum thickness of the radar, ensuring that the radar can be stably placed within it. See also Figure 2 A slot 211 is provided on the first baffle 21. The shape and size of the slot 211 match the locking end of the radar, so that the radar can be quickly installed in place by a simple sliding action.
