The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0026] Please refer to Figs. 1-3 , which shows a rebound limiting device applied to a U-shaped beam in an embodiment of the utility model. It should be noted that in actual situations, the U-shaped beam 100 is formed by stamping or hot stamping. During the cooling process, due to changes in cooling time, temperature and environment, the side walls on both sides of the U-shaped beam 100 will shrink inward, that is Fig. 3 the side walls on both sides of the U-shaped beam 100 in the drawing will shrink inward, resulting in the side wall profile not meeting the standard and affecting the installation size accuracy of subsequent parts.
[0027] Therefore, in this example, the rebound limiting device includes at least one first limiting support 200, at least one second limiting support 300 and at least one third limiting support 400.
[0028] The first limiting bracket 200, the second limiting bracket 300 and the third limiting bracket 400 are clamped in at least three positions of the U-shaped beam 100 along the length direction of the U-shaped beam 100 respectively.
[0029] The middle part of the first limiting bracket 200, the middle part of the second limiting bracket 300 and the middle part of the third limiting bracket 400 are all inwardly bent, so that the opposite edges of the first limiting bracket 200, the opposite edges of the second limiting bracket 300 and the opposite edges of the third limiting bracket 400 are all formed with a bent edge part, and the bent edge part is used for being arranged opposite to the side wall of the U-shaped beam 100.
[0030] When the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 are inwardly contracted, the first limiting bracket 200, the second limiting bracket 300 and the third limiting bracket 400 are clamped in at least three positions of the U-shaped beam 100 respectively, so that the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 which are inwardly contracted can be expanded outwardly, and the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 are expanded to a reasonable size, so as to ensure that the installation precision of the U-shaped beam 100 meets the requirements, and further solve the technical problem that the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 rebound in the prior art and affect the assembly precision.
[0031] It should be noted that the size of the first limiting bracket 200, the size of the second limiting bracket 300 and the size of the third limiting bracket 400 meet the installation precision requirements of the U-shaped beam 100 in specific implementation.

[0033] It should be further noted that the length dimension of the second limiting bracket 300 is greater than the length dimension of the first limiting bracket 200 and the length dimension of the second limiting bracket 300, that is, the second limiting bracket 300 can be expanded and limited along the length direction of the U-shaped beam 100.
[0034] In order to avoid the disadvantage of scratching the U-shaped beam 100 when assembling the first limiting support 200, the second limiting support 300 and the third limiting support 400, in the embodiment, the folded edge part is arc-shaped, and at least one through hole 500 is arranged at the middle part of the first limiting support 200, the middle part of the second limiting support 300 and the middle part of the third limiting support 400, which not only can guarantee the installation of other vehicle parts on the U-shaped beam 100, but also can guarantee the strength between the first limiting support 200, the second limiting support 300 and the third limiting support 400.
[0035] Specifically, the first limiting support 200 comprises a first middle part 210 and two first folded edge parts 220 arranged at both edges of the first middle part 210, and the first folded edge part 220 is arranged opposite to the side wall of the U-shaped beam 100; the second limiting support 300 comprises a second middle part 310, a bent part 330 and two second folded edge parts 320 arranged at both edges of the second middle part 310, and the second folded edge part 320 is arranged opposite to the side wall of the U-shaped beam 100, the bent part 330 is connected with one second folded edge part 320, so that when the second middle part 310 and the second folded edge part 320 are located in the U-shaped beam 100, the bent part 330 is located outside the U-shaped beam 100, and the bent part 330 is arranged to facilitate disassembly of the second limiting support 300; the third limiting support 400 comprises a third middle part 410 and two third folded edge parts 420 arranged at both edges of the third middle part 410, and the third folded edge part 420 is arranged opposite to the side wall of the U-shaped beam 100.

[0037] In the rebound limiting device applied to the U-shaped beam, through the arrangement of the first limiting support 200, the second limiting support 300 and the third limiting support 400, when the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 are inwardly contracted, the first limiting support 200, the second limiting support 300 and the third limiting support 400 are respectively clamped at at least three positions in the U-shaped beam 100, so that the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 which are inwardly contracted can be expanded outwardly, the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 are expanded to a reasonable size, the installation precision of the U-shaped beam 100 is guaranteed to meet the requirements, and the technical problem that the rebound of the two side walls of the U-shaped beam 100 affects the assembly precision in the prior art is solved.
