Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to a license plate mounting bracket. Background Technology

[0002] A license plate frame is a detachable automotive accessory attached to the front or rear of a vehicle frame to secure the license plate. Due to its ease of installation and removal, it is popular with consumers. Existing license plate frames include a base and a fixed arm, a movable arm, a rotating mechanism, and a lock mounted on the base. The fixed arm is fixedly connected to the base, while the movable arm is movably connected to the base. The movable arm is driven by the rotating mechanism to rotate relative to the base, moving closer to or away from the fixed arm. The lock, located on one side of the rotating mechanism, locks the movable arm to the base after it has rotated to its designated position, preventing theft of the license plate frame. Because the movable arm is driven by the rotating mechanism and locked to the base by the lock, the base has numerous mechanisms, a complex internal structure, and a large size. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a license plate mounting bracket to solve the problems of existing license plate brackets where the movable arm is driven by a rotating mechanism and locked to the base by a lock, resulting in numerous mechanisms on the base, a complex internal structure, and a large base volume.

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

[0005] A license plate mounting bracket includes a base, a fixed arm, and a movable arm. The fixed arm is connected to the base, and the movable arm is rotatably connected to the fixed arm. The base is provided with a drive-away anti-theft mechanism. The movable arm is driven by the drive-away anti-theft mechanism to rotate around the connection point between the movable arm and the fixed arm, moving closer to or away from the fixed arm, and is locked to the base by the drive-away anti-theft mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the anti-theft mechanism includes a drive rod, a sliding seat, and an anti-theft rod. The drive rod is rotatably connected to the base and is driven by the anti-theft rod and detachably connected to the anti-theft rod. The sliding seat is connected to the drive rod and rotatably connected to the movable arm. When the drive rod rotates, the sliding seat moves along the drive rod, thereby driving the movable arm to rotate.

[0007] Furthermore, the base has a receiving cavity for accommodating the drive rod and the sliding seat, and the movable arm has a first arm and a second arm. The first arm is rotatably connected to the fixed arm and located outside the receiving cavity, and the second arm is disposed on the first arm and extends into the receiving cavity and is rotatably connected to the sliding seat.

[0008] Furthermore, the end of the drive rod connected to the anti-theft rod is defined as the front end, and the fixed arm has a third arm located behind the base, with the first arm extending rearward to the rear of the base and located above the third arm.

[0009] Furthermore, the base has a communication port for the second arm to extend into the accommodating cavity, the communication port extending front and rear, and the second arm abutting against the front wall of the communication port when the movable arm rotates.

[0010] Furthermore, the sliding seat is provided with a connecting shaft, and the movable arm is provided with an oblong hole for the connecting shaft to be inserted. When the movable arm rotates, the connecting shaft slides along the oblong hole.

[0011] Furthermore, there are two fixed arms and two movable arms, each corresponding to the other, with the two fixed arms arranged opposite each other on the base.

[0012] Furthermore, the fixed arm has a fourth arm, which is located above the movable arm for fixing the license plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the base has a clamping seat at its rear end, which at least partially abuts against the rear end of the drive rod, and the clamping seat has a clamping opening.

[0014] The advantage of this technical solution is that by configuring a drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism on the base, the movable arm is driven to rotate by the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism and locked on the base by the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism. The drive and locking of the movable arm are achieved by the same mechanism (drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism), which effectively simplifies the internal structure of the base and reduces the volume of the base.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example: Figure 1-6 As shown, the license plate mounting bracket includes a base 1, a fixed arm 2, and a movable arm 3. The fixed arm 2 is connected to the base 1, and the movable arm 3 is rotatably connected to the fixed arm 2. The base 1 is equipped with a drive-away anti-theft mechanism 4. The movable arm 3 is driven by the drive-away anti-theft mechanism 4 to rotate around the connection point between the movable arm 3 and the fixed arm 2, moving closer to or away from the fixed arm 2, and is locked onto the base 1 by the drive-away anti-theft mechanism 4. Specifically, when the movable arm 3 rotates closer to the fixed arm 2, it cooperates with the fixed arm 2 to clamp and fix the license plate mounting bracket to the vehicle frame. When the movable arm 3 rotates away from the fixed arm 2, it releases the clamping of the license plate mounting bracket. This embodiment provides a license plate mounting bracket to solve the problems of existing license plate brackets where the movable arm is driven to rotate by a rotating mechanism and locked to the base by a lock, resulting in numerous mechanisms on the base, a complex internal structure, and a large base volume. The solution is to configure a drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4 on the base 1. The movable arm 3 is driven to rotate by the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4 and locked to the base 1 by the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4. This allows the driving and locking of the movable arm 3 to be achieved by the same mechanism (drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4), effectively simplifying the internal structure of the base 1 and reducing the volume of the base 1.

[0025] In this embodiment of the utility model, the anti-theft mechanism 4 includes a drive rod 401, a sliding seat 402, and an anti-theft rod 403. The drive rod 401 is rotatably connected to the base 1 and is driven to rotate relative to the base 1 by the anti-theft rod 403. The drive rod 401 and the anti-theft rod 403 are detachably connected. The sliding seat 402 is connected to the drive rod 401, and the movable arm 3 is rotatably connected to the sliding seat 402. When the drive rod 401 rotates, the sliding seat 402 moves along the drive rod 401, thereby driving the movable arm 3 to rotate. Specifically, when the license plate mounting bracket is installed on the vehicle frame, the user connects the anti-theft rod 403 to the drive rod 401, causing the drive rod 401 to rotate. This causes the sliding seat 402 to move along the drive rod 401, thereby causing the movable arm 3 to swing. The movable arm 3 cooperates with the fixed arm 2 to clamp the vehicle frame. When the movable arm 3 has rotated to its position, the anti-theft rod 403 is removed from the drive rod 401, preventing the drive rod 401 from rotating and thus locking the movable arm 3 in its current position. In summary, the above configuration, by configuring the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4 as a drive rod 401, a sliding seat 402, and an anti-theft rod 403, allows the movable arm 3 to be driven and locked by the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4. Furthermore, the drive-and-move anti-theft mechanism 4 has a simple structure and is easy to implement.

[0026] In this embodiment of the invention, the sliding seat 402 is threadedly connected to the drive rod 401. This configuration, by threading the sliding seat 402 onto the drive rod 401, allows the sliding seat 402 to move along the drive rod 401 as it rotates, thereby driving the movable arm 3 to rotate. The linkage structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0027] In this embodiment of the utility model, the drive rod 401 has an anti-theft protrusion 404, and the anti-theft rod 403 has an anti-theft recess (not shown in the figure) for the anti-theft protrusion 404 to be inserted. The anti-theft rod 403 is detachably connected to the anti-theft protrusion 404 and the drive rod 401. The anti-theft protrusion 404 is a polygonal protrusion, and the anti-theft recess is a polygonal recess that matches the shape of the anti-theft protrusion 404. The above-mentioned configuration, by configuring an anti-theft protrusion 404 on the drive rod 401 and an anti-theft recess on the anti-theft rod 403, allows the anti-theft rod 403 and the drive rod 401 to be detachably connected. The disassembly structure is simple and the disassembly and assembly are convenient. Furthermore, by configuring the anti-theft protrusion 404 as a polygonal protrusion and the anti-theft recess as a polygonal recess that matches the shape of the anti-theft protrusion 404, the anti-theft rod 403 can drive the drive rod 401 to rotate when connected to the drive rod 401, and has a good anti-theft effect when the anti-theft rod 403 is removed from the drive rod 401.

[0028] In this embodiment of the invention, the base 1 has a cavity 101 for accommodating the drive rod 401 and the sliding seat 402, and the movable arm 3 has a first arm 301 and a second arm 302. The first arm 301 is rotatably connected to the fixed arm 2 and located outside the cavity 101, while the second arm 302 is disposed on the first arm 301 and extends into the cavity 101 to be rotatably connected to the sliding seat 402. This configuration, by setting the base 1 to have a cavity 101 for accommodating the drive rod 401 and the sliding seat 402, and by setting the movable arm 3 to have a first arm 301 rotatably connected to the fixed arm 2 and a second arm 302 disposed on the first arm 301 and extending into the cavity 101 to be rotatably connected to the sliding seat 402, ensures that the base 1, drive rod 401, sliding seat 402, and movable arm 3 are assembled compactly and rotate smoothly.

[0029] In this embodiment of the invention, the end of the drive lever 401 connected to the anti-theft lever 403 is defined as the front end. The fixed arm 2 has a third arm 201 located behind the base 1, and a first arm 301 extends rearward to the rear of the base 1 and is located above the third arm 201. The first arm 301 and the third arm 201 cooperate to clamp the vehicle frame. This arrangement, by configuring the third arm 201 and the first arm 301 to be opposite the anti-theft lever 403, ensures that when the anti-theft lever 403 drives the drive lever 401 to rotate, it does not interfere with the third arm 201 and the first arm 301.

[0030] In this embodiment of the invention, the base 1 has a connecting opening 102 for the second arm 302 to extend into the receiving cavity 101. The connecting opening 102 extends front and rear, and the second arm 302 abuts against the front wall of the connecting opening 102 when the movable arm 3 rotates. This arrangement, by configuring the second arm 302 to abut against the front wall of the connecting opening 102 when the movable arm 3 rotates, ensures stable rotation of the movable arm 3 and provides a good clamping effect when used with the fixed arm 2 to clamp the vehicle frame.

[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, a connecting shaft 406 is provided on the sliding seat 402, and an oblong hole 303 is provided on the movable arm 3 for the connecting shaft 406 to be inserted. When the movable arm 3 rotates, the connecting shaft 406 slides along the oblong hole 303. The above arrangement, by configuring the connecting shaft 406 on the sliding seat 402 and configuring the oblong hole 303 on the movable arm 3 to slide and cooperate with the connecting shaft 406, makes the movable arm 3 rotate smoothly.

[0032] In this embodiment of the invention, there are two fixed arms 2 and two movable arms 3, which correspond one-to-one. The two fixed arms 2 are arranged opposite to each other on the base 1. By configuring the fixed arms 2 and the movable arms 3 into two corresponding units, the license plate mounting bracket is stably assembled on the vehicle frame.

[0033] In this embodiment of the invention, the fixed arm 2 has a fourth support arm 202, which is located above the movable arm 3 and is used to fix the license plate. By configuring the fixed arm 2 to have a fourth support arm 202 located above the movable arm 3 for fixing the license plate, the license plate mounting bracket can directly fix the license plate, eliminating the need for a separate license plate mounting bracket and simplifying the assembly process.

[0034] In this embodiment of the utility model, the fixed arm 2 also has a vertical connecting piece 203 and a horizontal connecting piece 204. The vertical connecting piece 203 is connected to the base 1, the horizontal connecting piece 204 extends outward from the upper end of the vertical connecting piece 203, and the fourth arm 202 extends upward from the outer end of the vertical connecting piece 203. The fourth arm 202 extends above the movable arm 3 to fix the license plate.

[0035] In this embodiment of the utility model, a clamping seat 5 is provided at the rear end of the base 1. The clamping seat 5 at least partially abuts against the rear end of the drive rod 401, and the clamping seat 5 has a clamping opening 501. The above arrangement, by configuring the clamping seat 5 at the rear end of the base 1, and the clamping seat 5 having a clamping opening 501 that engages with the vehicle frame, ensures that the license plate mounting frame is stably assembled with the vehicle frame when it is mounted on the vehicle frame.
