[0044] Some embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. Various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, apparatus, and / or systems described herein will become apparent upon understanding this disclosure. For example, the order of operations described herein is merely illustrative and is not limited to those orders set forth herein, but can be changed as will become apparent upon understanding this disclosure, except for operations that must be performed in a particular order. Furthermore, for clarity and brevity, descriptions of features known in the art may be omitted.
[0045] The embodiments described in the following examples of this disclosure are not representative of all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.
[0046] See Figure 1 The illustration represents a schematic diagram of the pipe clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure from one perspective. In this exemplary embodiment, the pipe clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure is described as an example of installing a brake pipe on the body structure 300 of a vehicle. It will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, additions, substitutions, deletions, or other changes may be made to the specific embodiments described below in order to apply the relevant designs of this disclosure to the installation of other types of pipes 200 on the body structure 300 of a vehicle, and these changes are still within the scope of the principles of the pipe clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure.
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the pipe clamp structure 100 is used to install the pipeline 200 to the vehicle body structure 300 via the pipe clamp structure 100, for example, for installing the brake pipe to the vehicle chassis. See also... Figures 2 to 6 , Figure 2 The diagram above shows a representative structural schematic of the pipe clamp structure 100 from another perspective; Figure 3 An exploded view of the pipe clamp structure 100 is shown in the figure. Figure 4 A schematic plan view of the pipeline connection 110 is shown in the figure. Figure 5 A schematic plan view of the body connection part 120 is shown in the figure. Figure 6 The diagram shows a representative example of a pipe 200 installed on the vehicle body structure 300 via a pipe clamp structure 100. The structure, connection method, and functional relationship of the main components of the pipe clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the aforementioned drawings.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the pipe clamp structure 100 includes a pipe connection portion 110 and a body connection portion 120. The pipe connection portion 110 is used to connect the pipe 200. The body connection portion 120 is used to connect to the body structure 300. The pipe connection portion 110 and the body connection portion 120 are detachably connected. Through the above structural design, for different assembly specifications of the body structure 300, or for different specifications and quantities of pipes 200, this disclosure allows for the individual replacement of the corresponding specification of the pipe connection portion 110 or the body connection portion 120. It also allows for individual disassembly and replacement when the pipe connection portion 110 or the body connection portion 120 is damaged, thereby improving the versatility of the pipe clamp structure 100. Furthermore, compared to a single-piece pipe clamp that requires remanufacturing or complete replacement to address different application scenarios or damage, this disclosure reduces component development costs (e.g., mold costs) and maintenance costs.
[0049] For example, using the pipe clamp structure 100 design proposed in this disclosure, when different specifications of connection structures with the vehicle body structure 300 are required, and the arrangement of the pipes 200 at the corresponding connection structures is roughly the same, such as the 8mm and 6mm mounting holes of the vehicle body structure 300, vehicle body connection parts 120 that can adapt to the two types of mounting holes can be provided respectively. That is, the vehicle body connection structures 122 of the two types of vehicle body connection parts 120 are structures corresponding to the 8mm and 6mm mounting holes, respectively. Moreover, the connection structures (e.g., the clamp block 121 described below) between the two types of vehicle body connection parts 120 and the pipe connection parts 110 can be the same. That is, it is not necessary to manufacture two types of pipe connection parts 110; only one type of pipe connection part 110 is needed to install the pipes 200 in the 8mm and 6mm mounting holes. Similarly, when it is necessary to meet the installation requirements of different pipes 200, pipe connection parts 110 that can adapt to the requirements of different pipes 200 can be provided respectively, without the need to manufacture two types of vehicle body connection parts 120. In other words, the pipeline connection part 110 and the body connection part 120 can be manufactured in one or more specifications as needed, but the detachable connection structure of each pipeline connection part 110 and each body connection part 120 adopts the same structure, thereby enabling flexible switching of the pipe clamp structure 100 to meet the needs of various application scenarios.
[0050] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the pipeline connection portion 110 may be provided with a first snap-fit structure, and the vehicle body connection portion 120 may be provided with a second snap-fit structure. The first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure engage in a snap-fit relationship, and the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120 are detachably connected via the first snap-fit structure and the second snap-fit structure. Through the above structural design, this disclosure achieves a detachable connection between the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120 using a snap-fit method, which is simple in structure and easy to assemble. In other embodiments of this disclosure, other connection methods may be used to achieve a detachable connection between the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120, such as a detachable connection via a connector, and this embodiment is not the only one that can be used.
[0051] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, based on the snap-fit structure design of the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the first snap-fit structure can be a slot 111, the opening of which is disposed on one side of the pipeline connection portion 110 in a first direction, such as direction D1 shown in the figure. Furthermore, along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the width of the slot 111 cavity can be greater than the width of the opening, such as direction D2 shown in the figure. Alternatively, the second snap-fit structure can be a block 121, which includes a snap-fit portion 1211 and a connecting portion 1212 connected along the first direction. For example, if the vehicle body connection portion 120 further includes a vehicle body connection structure 122 for assembly with the vehicle body structure 300, then the connecting portion 1212 connects the snap-fit portion 1211 and the vehicle body connection structure 122 of the vehicle body connection portion 120. Furthermore, along the second direction, the width of the snap-fit portion 1211 is greater than the width of the slot opening of the slot 111, and the width of the connecting portion 1212 is less than the width of the snap-fit portion 1211. Accordingly, when the vehicle body connecting portion 120 and the pipeline connecting portion 110 are snap-fitted together, the snap-fit portion 1211 is accommodated in the slot 111, and the connecting portion 1212 passes through the slot opening of the slot 111, thereby enabling the snap-fit engagement between the snap-fit block 121 and the slot 111. Through the above structural design, this disclosure utilizes the snap-fit block 121 and the slot 111 to achieve the snap-fit engagement between the pipeline connecting portion 110 and the vehicle body connecting portion 120, resulting in a simple structure, convenient assembly, and easy implementation.
[0052] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, based on the cooperative design of the slot 111 and the locking block 121, in one embodiment of this disclosure, along a third direction perpendicular to both the first and second directions, the two ends of the slot 111 open onto the two sides of the pipeline connection portion 110 in this third direction, that is, the slot 111 penetrates the pipeline connection portion 110 along the third direction, which can be, for example, direction D3 shown in the attached figure. Based on this, the vehicle body connection portion 120 and the pipeline connection portion 110 can be disassembled by moving relative to each other along the third direction. Specifically, when disassembly is required, the vehicle body connection portion 120 and the pipeline connection portion 110 can be moved relative to each other along the third direction (at least one of them can be moved), causing the locking block 121 to move out of the slot 111 along the third direction, thereby achieving the disassembly of the vehicle body connection portion 120 and the pipeline connection portion 110. When assembly is required, the body connecting part 120 and the pipeline connecting part 110 can be moved relative to each other along a third direction (at least one of them can be moved), so that the locking block 121 moves into the locking slot 111 along the third direction, thereby realizing the assembly of the body connecting part 120 and the pipeline connecting part 110. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can further reduce the assembly difficulty of the locking assembly of the pipeline connecting part 110 and the body connecting part 120. At the same time, since the locking slot 111 penetrates the pipeline connecting part 110, the movement direction during disassembly and assembly can be along both sides of the third direction, which provides greater operational freedom and convenience. In some other embodiments of this disclosure, the locking slot 111 may also have only one end open on one side of the pipeline connecting part 110 in the third direction, and is not limited to this embodiment.
[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, based on the design of the slot 111 and the locking block 121, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the slot wall of the slot 111 may be provided with a limiting protrusion 112, which abuts against the side of the locking part 1211 perpendicular to the third direction. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can use the limiting protrusion 112 to position the locking part 1211 in the slot 111, thereby realizing the assembly positioning of the pipeline connection part 110 and the vehicle body connection part 120 when they are engaged with the locking block 121 via the slot 111. Specifically, the limiting protrusion 112 can achieve positioning in the third direction, the constraint of the slot 111 on the locking block 121 can achieve positioning in the second direction, and the design of the slot 111 with a small opening width and the design of the locking part 1211 and the connecting part 1212 of the locking block 121 can achieve positioning in the first direction, thereby achieving a more secure and reliable engagement between the pipeline connection part 110 and the vehicle body connection part 120.
[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, based on the structural design of the groove wall of the slot 111 having a limiting protrusion 112, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the side of the snap-fit portion 1211 perpendicular to the third direction may be provided with a recess 12111, and the limiting protrusion 112 is at least partially accommodated in the recess 12111. In other words, the snap-fit portion 1211 specifically abuts against the bottom of the recess 12111 (i.e., the surface of the recess 12111 perpendicular to the third direction). In addition, the area of the side of the snap-fit portion 1211 perpendicular to the third direction without the recess 12111 can be flush with the side of the pipeline connection portion 110 perpendicular to the third direction, thereby further improving the surface flatness and component aesthetics of the pipe clamp structure 100.
[0055] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, based on the structural design of the groove wall of the slot 111 having limiting protrusions 112, in one embodiment of this disclosure, for one side of the engaging portion 1211 perpendicular to a third direction, the groove wall of the slot 111 can be provided with at least two limiting protrusions 112. These limiting protrusions 112 abut against the same side of the engaging portion 1211 perpendicular to a third direction, and these limiting protrusions 112 can be arranged at intervals on the same groove wall of the slot 111, or they can be arranged separately on different groove walls of the slot 111. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can further improve the engaging assembly effect between the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120.
[0056] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the slot 111 penetrates the pipeline connection portion 110 along a third direction, meaning the locking portion 1211 can move out of the slot 111 along both sides of the third direction. Based on this, the slot wall of the slot 111 may be provided with at least two limiting protrusions 112, which are spaced apart along the third direction and respectively abut against two sides of the locking portion 1211 perpendicular to the third direction. Further, for any one side of the locking portion 1211, the number of limiting protrusions 112 abutting against can be one, or at least two spaced apart.
[0057] like Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, on a reference plane parallel to the second direction and parallel to the third direction, the orthographic projection of the slot 111 can be rectangular, and the orthographic projection of the block 121 (e.g., the snap-fit portion 1211) matches the orthographic projection of the slot 111, that is, the orthographic projection of the block 121 can be rectangular. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can utilize the design of the matching shape of the slot 111 and the block 121 to achieve circumferential limiting, avoid relative rotation between the snap-fit assembly of the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120, and further improve the stability and reliability of the pipeline 200 when it is installed on the vehicle body structure 300 via the pipe clamp structure 100. In other embodiments of this disclosure, the orthographic projection of the card slot 111 and the orthographic projection of the card block 121 may also be a matching ellipse, oblong or polygon, or the orthographic projection of the card slot 111 and the orthographic projection of the card block 121 may also be a matching circle, and other limiting structures may be further provided between them to achieve rotational positioning, which is not limited to this embodiment.
[0058] like Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the pipeline connection portion 110 is provided with a pipeline slot 113, which is used to pass through and lock the pipeline 200. The slot of the pipeline slot 113 is provided on one side of the pipeline connection portion 110 that is away from the vehicle body connection portion 120 (i.e., the side of the pipeline connection portion 110 that is away from the vehicle body connection portion 120 in the first direction). The pipeline slot 113 penetrates the pipeline connection portion 110 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction.
[0059] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, based on the structural design of the pipeline connection portion 110 with a pipeline slot 113, in one embodiment of this disclosure, taking the example that at least one end of the slot 111 in the third direction is open on the side of the pipeline connection portion 110, the pipeline slot 113 can penetrate the pipeline connection portion 110 in the third direction. Through the above structural design, this disclosure keeps the relative movement direction of the pipeline connection portion 110 and the vehicle body connection portion 120 consistent with the transmission direction of the pipeline 200 in the pipeline connection portion 110, thereby facilitating the separate assembly and disassembly of the vehicle body connection portion 120 when the pipeline 200 is assembled in the pipeline connection portion 110. In other embodiments of this disclosure, the pipeline slot 113 can also penetrate the pipeline connection portion 110 in a direction other than the third direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, such as in the second direction, and is not limited to this embodiment.
[0060] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, based on the structural design of the pipeline connection portion 110 having pipeline slots 113, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the pipeline connection portion 110 may be provided with at least two pipeline slots 113, and these pipeline slots 113 are arranged along a direction perpendicular to the first direction (e.g., the second direction in this embodiment). Through the above structural design, the pipeline clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure can simultaneously achieve the assembly of at least two pipelines 200.
[0061] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the pipeline connection portion 110 can be replaced with a pipeline connection portion 110 of a different number of pipeline slots 113 by means of a detachable connection with the vehicle body connection portion 120.
[0062] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, based on the structural design of the pipeline connection portion 110 with a pipeline slot 113, in one embodiment of this disclosure, a backstop structure can be provided at the opening of the pipeline slot 113. This backstop structure is used to restrict the pipeline 200 passing through the pipeline slot 113 and prevent the pipeline 200 from coming out of the opening of the pipeline slot 113. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can further improve the assembly stability when the pipeline 200 is inserted into the pipeline slot 113.
[0063] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, based on the structural design of the trailer with an anti-reverse structure, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the anti-reverse structure can be two inclined anti-reverse walls 1131, which are respectively disposed on the two side walls of the pipeline slot 113. One end of the inclined anti-reverse wall 1131 is connected to the wall of the pipeline slot 113, and the other end of the inclined anti-reverse wall 1131 extends inclinedly towards the bottom of the pipeline slot 113 and the opposite wall. The other ends of the two inclined anti-reverse walls 1131 are spaced apart to form a guide opening for the pipeline 200 to be inserted. Through the above structural design, this disclosure can utilize the inclined surfaces of the inclined anti-reverse walls 1131 to guide the insertion of the pipeline 200 during the process of inserting it into the pipeline slot 113, further reducing the assembly difficulty.
[0064] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the material of the pipeline connection 110 can be plastic, such as polyhexamethylene adipamide (commonly known as nylon-66 or PA66 plastic) or polyoxymethylene (commonly known as POM plastic).
[0065] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the material of the vehicle body connection portion 120 may be plastic, such as polyhexamethylene adipamide or polyoxymethylene resin.
[0066] It should be noted that the pipe clamp structure 100 shown in the accompanying drawings and described in this specification is merely a few examples among many pipe clamp structures 100 capable of employing the principles of this disclosure. It should be clearly understood that the principles of this disclosure are by no means limited to any detail or component of the pipe clamp structure 100 shown in the accompanying drawings or described in this specification.
[0067] Based on the above detailed description of several exemplary embodiments of the pipe clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure, an exemplary embodiment of the vehicle proposed in this disclosure will be described below.
[0068] See Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the vehicle proposed in this disclosure includes a pipeline 200, a vehicle body structure 300, and a pipe clamp structure 100 as proposed in this disclosure and described in detail in the above embodiment. The pipeline 200 is installed on the vehicle body structure 300 via the pipe clamp structure 100.
[0069] It should be noted that the vehicles shown in the accompanying drawings and described in this specification are merely a few examples among many vehicles capable of employing the principles of this disclosure. It should be clearly understood that the principles of this disclosure are by no means limited to any detail or component of the vehicles shown in the accompanying drawings or described in this specification.
[0070] In summary, the pipe clamp structure 100 proposed in this disclosure is used for installing pipelines 200 onto the vehicle body structure 300 via the pipe clamp structure 100. The pipe clamp structure 100 includes a pipeline connection part 110 and a body connection part 120. The pipeline connection part 110 is used to connect the pipeline 200; the body connection part 120 is used to connect to the vehicle body structure 300; the pipeline connection part 110 and the body connection part 120 are detachably connected. Through the above structural design, for different assembly specifications of the vehicle body structure 300, or for different specifications and quantities of pipelines 200, this disclosure allows for the individual replacement of the corresponding specification of the pipeline connection part 110 or the body connection part 120. It also allows for individual disassembly and replacement when the pipeline connection part 110 or the body connection part 120 is damaged, thereby improving the versatility of the pipe clamp structure 100. In addition, compared to integrated pipe clamps that require remanufacturing or complete replacement when needed for different application scenarios or damage, this disclosure can reduce parts development costs and maintenance costs.
[0071] Furthermore, the term “exemplary” is used herein to mean serving as an example, instance, or illustration. Any aspect or design described herein as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as advantageous compared to other aspects or designs. Rather, the use of the term “exemplary” is intended to present the concept in a concrete manner. As used herein, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or.” That is, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context, “X applies A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive arrangements. That is, “X applies A or B” satisfies any of the foregoing instances if X applies A; X applies B; or both X applies A and B. Additionally, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context to refer to the singular form, the articles “a” and “an” as used in this application and the appended claims are generally understood to mean “one or more.”
[0072] Similarly, although this disclosure has been shown and described with respect to one or more implementations, equivalent variations and modifications will occur to those skilled in the art upon reading and understanding the specification and drawings. This disclosure includes all such modifications and variations and is limited only by the scope of the claims. In particular, with respect to the various functions performed by the components described above (e.g., elements, resources, etc.), unless otherwise indicated, the terminology used to describe such components is intended to correspond to any component (functionally equivalent) that performs the specific function of the described component, even if structurally not equivalent to the disclosed structure. Furthermore, although specific features of this disclosure may have been disclosed with respect to only one of several implementations, such features may be combined with one or more other features of other implementations, as may be desired and advantageous to any given or particular application. Moreover, with regard to the terms “comprising,” “owning,” “having,” “having,” or variations thereof as used in the detailed description or claims, such terms are intended to be inclusive in a manner similar to the term “including.”
[0073] Other embodiments of this disclosure will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of this disclosure that follow the general principles of this disclosure and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The specification and examples are to be considered exemplary only, and the true scope and spirit of this disclosure are indicated by the following claims.
[0074] It should be understood that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," "fixing," etc., used in the embodiments of this disclosure should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between them; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms herein according to the specific circumstances.
[0075] Although terms such as “first” and “second” may be used herein to describe various components, parts, regions, layers, or sections, these components, parts, regions, layers, or sections are not limited to these terms. Rather, these terms are used only to distinguish one component, part, region, layer, or section from another. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the examples described herein, the first component, part, region, layer, or section mentioned in the examples may also be referred to as the second component, part, region, layer, or section. Furthermore, the terms “first” and “second” are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as “first” or “second” may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description herein, “a plurality” means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0076] It should be understood that spatial relative terms, such as “above,” “upper,” “below,” and “lower,” are used herein to describe the relationship between one element and another shown in the figures. In addition to the orientation depicted in the figures, these spatial relative terms are also intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the figures is flipped, an element described as “above” or “upper” relative to another element would be “below” or “lower” relative to that other element. Thus, depending on the spatial orientation of the device, the term “above” encompasses both above and below orientations. Devices may have other orientations (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative terms used herein should be interpreted accordingly.
[0077] It should be understood that this disclosure is not limited to the precise structures described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. The scope of this disclosure is limited only by the appended claims.
