[0033] The following is for reference. Figures 1-6 The present invention describes a shock absorber mounting structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The shock absorber mounting structure 100 allows the shock absorber 1 to be mounted on the top of the vehicle body and removed from the bottom, thereby improving the ease of disassembly of the shock absorber 1.

[0034] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the shock absorber mounting structure 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a shock absorber 1 and a transition structure 2.

[0035] The shock absorber mounting structure 100 is used to install and fix the shock absorber 1 to ensure the normal use of the shock absorber 1.

[0036] The shock absorber 1 is provided with a mounting plate 11 on its top. The mounting plate 11 is used to connect with the adapter structure 2, and the adapter structure 2 can be connected with the vehicle body structure to achieve the fixed installation of the shock absorber 1.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the top of the shock absorber 1 is provided with a rectangular mounting plate 11. The mounting plate 11 can also be set to other shapes such as round or square.

[0038] The adapter structure 2 is installed between the mounting plate 11 and other structures, serving as a transition and connection. That is, the shock absorber 1 is connected to the vehicle body structure through the adapter structure 2, instead of directly connecting the shock absorber 1 to other structures, thereby simplifying the connection process between the shock absorber 1 and the vehicle body.

[0039] The adapter structure 2 is installed above the mounting plate 11. The mounting plate 11 has a connecting hole for the connector 3 to pass through. The connector 3 can pass upward through this connecting hole and connect to the adapter structure 2, thereby achieving a tight connection between the adapter structure 2 and the mounting plate 11. The connector 3 can be a bolt, screw, nut, etc. Since the connector 3 connects to the adapter structure 2 from bottom to top, that is, the shock absorber 1 and the adapter structure 2 are connected from bottom to top, the shock absorber 1 can be disassembled from below the adapter structure 2 when it is actually disassembled. This improves the convenience of disassembling the shock absorber 1 and avoids the problem of inconvenience caused by the windshield glass or other structures in the upper space obstructing the disassembly space above the shock absorber 1.

[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the shape of the adapter structure 2 is adapted to the shape of the mounting plate 11. It is constructed as a rectangular plate with a certain thickness, but can also be circular, square, irregular, or other shapes adapted to the mounting plate 11, allowing for flexible design based on actual needs. The thickness of the adapter structure 2 must be at least greater than the length of the connector 3. This allows the connector 3 to pass through the adapter structure 2 for a secure connection, thus ensuring a stable connection between the mounting plate 11 and the adapter structure 2, guaranteeing the reliability and stability of the connection.

[0041] Furthermore, the adapter structure 2 has a protruding connecting post 21 on the side opposite to the mounting plate 11, and the connecting post 21 is used to pass through and connect to the vehicle body.

[0042] In other words, the adapter structure 2 is tightly connected to the vehicle body via the connecting pillar 21, such as Figure 6 As shown, a connecting post 21 protruding upwards is provided on the upper side of the adapter structure 2, that is, the side opposite to the mounting plate 11. The connecting post 21 can be cylindrical, square, etc. Figure 6 Taking a cylindrical shape as an example, the vehicle body is provided with through holes for the connecting column 21 to pass through and to fit the connecting column 21. In this way, the connecting column 21 can be inserted upward through the through holes to connect with the vehicle body. Since the connecting column 21 connects to the vehicle body from bottom to top, that is, the vehicle body and the transition structure 2 are connected from top to bottom, the shock absorber 1 can be installed on top of the vehicle body when it is actually installed.

[0043] Therefore, by connecting the upper and lower parts of the adapter structure 2 to the vehicle body and the mounting plate 11 respectively, a structure is realized in which the shock absorber 1 is installed on the upper part of the vehicle body and removed from the lower part, thereby improving the ease of disassembling the shock absorber 1.

[0044] According to the shock absorber mounting structure 100 of this utility model embodiment, a protruding connecting post 21 is provided on the side of the adapter structure 2 away from the mounting plate 11 to realize the connection between the adapter structure 2 and the vehicle body. The adapter structure 2 is connected to the shock absorber 1 by passing the connecting piece 3 through the mounting plate 11 and connecting it to the adapter structure 2. Thus, the shock absorber 1 can be installed on the top of the vehicle body and removed from the bottom, which improves the convenience of removing the shock absorber 1.

[0045] In some embodiments, the top end of the shock absorber 1 protrudes from the mounting plate 11, and the transition structure 2 is provided with a clearance hole 22. The clearance hole 22 is used to avoid the top end of the shock absorber 1. The connecting hole and the connecting post 21 are distributed at intervals with the clearance hole 22.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the transition structure 2 is provided with a clearance hole 22 extending through its thickness direction. The shape and size of the clearance hole 22 are adapted to the shape and size of the top end of the shock absorber 1. In this way, the top end of the shock absorber 1 can extend upward through the clearance hole 22, avoiding interference between the top end of the shock absorber 1 and the transition structure 2. This allows the shock absorber 1 to be accurately positioned during installation, improving its installation accuracy and efficiency, while ensuring the shock absorption function of the shock absorber 1.

[0047] The connecting holes and connecting posts 21 are all distributed at a certain distance from the clearance holes 22. Figure 6 The clearance hole 22 shown is roughly located in the middle of the transition structure 2. The connecting hole and connecting post 21 are distributed around the clearance hole 22. In this way, interference between the clearance hole 22 and the connecting hole and connecting post 21 can be avoided, so that the top of the connector 3, the connecting post 21 and the shock absorber 1 can be installed correctly and securely. Moreover, the connecting hole and connecting post 21 are distributed around the clearance hole 22 at intervals, which can avoid the reduction of the overall strength of the structure due to the presence of the clearance hole 22. In other words, the strength of the entire installation structure is enhanced.

[0048] In some embodiments, there are multiple connection holes, that is, the number of connection holes can be set to two, three or even more. Correspondingly, the number of connectors 3 is also set to the number corresponding to the connection holes, that is, the number of connectors 3 can also be set to two, three or even more. Setting multiple connection holes allows the mounting plate 11 and the adapter structure 2 to be connected at multiple connection points through multiple connectors 3, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the connection between the mounting plate 11 and the adapter structure 2. If one connector 3 fails, the other connectors 3 can still function, avoiding the shock absorber 1 from loosening and failing. At the same time, multiple connectors 3 can simultaneously disperse and bear the vibration from the vehicle body and the shock absorber 1, thereby improving the service life of the shock absorber mounting structure 100.

[0049] Furthermore, multiple connecting holes are distributed at intervals around the clearance hole 22, meaning that multiple connecting holes are dispersed around the clearance hole 22. In other words, multiple connecting parts 3 are dispersed around the clearance hole 22. This allows the connecting plate to be connected to the transition structure 2 at various positions, thereby increasing the stable connection effect between the shock absorber 1 and the transition structure 2. At the same time, the spaced connecting parts 3 also make the stress distribution between the connecting parts 3 more uniform, avoiding structural damage caused by excessive local stress, thus ensuring the stability of the shock absorber 1 in use.

[0050] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, there are three connecting holes and three connecting pieces 3. The three connecting pieces 3 are inserted one-to-one into the three connecting holes. The three connecting pieces 3 are distributed at a certain distance around the avoidance hole 22, so that the shock absorber 1 can be stably connected to the transition structure 2 through the three connecting pieces 3. It should be noted that the number of connecting holes and connecting pieces 3 can be flexibly set according to actual needs and is not limited to the one described in this embodiment.

[0051] In some embodiments, there are multiple connecting posts 21, and the multiple connecting posts 21 are distributed at intervals around the clearance hole 22. That is, the number of connecting posts 21 can be set to two, three or even more. Setting multiple connecting posts 21 allows the vehicle body and the transition structure 2 to be connected at multiple connection points, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the connection between the vehicle body and the transition structure 2. When one connecting post 21 fails, the other connecting posts 21 can still function, which can avoid the inability to effectively transmit vibrations and stresses from the vehicle body due to loose connection between the vehicle body and the transition structure 2. In addition, multiple connecting posts 21 can more effectively disperse and bear vibrations and stresses from the vehicle body at the same time, which can protect the shock absorber 1 and the shock absorber mounting structure 100 from damage, thereby improving the service life of the shock absorber 1 and the shock absorber mounting structure 100.

[0052] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, three connecting posts 21 are provided, which are distributed at a certain distance around the clearance hole 22, so that the vehicle body can be stably connected to the adapter structure 2 through the three connecting posts 21. It should be noted that the number of connecting posts 21 can be flexibly set according to actual needs and is not limited to the one described in this embodiment.

[0053] In some embodiments, the distance between the center of the connecting hole and the center of the clearance hole 22 is greater than the distance between the center of the connecting post 21 and the center of the clearance hole 22.

[0054] The connecting holes are distributed on the outer side of the connecting post 21, so that the clearance hole 22, connecting post 21, and connecting holes are distributed sequentially from the inside to the outside. This relatively large distance between the connecting post 21 and the clearance hole 22 allows sufficient space for the connector 3 to be installed and secured during installation, preventing interference with the connecting post 21 and the clearance hole 22, thus improving the convenience and efficiency of installing the connector 3. Conversely, the close distance between the connecting post 21 and the clearance hole 22 ensures that the connecting post 21 can effectively connect to the vehicle body and transmit vibrations and forces from the vehicle body.

[0055] Therefore, by flexibly setting the distance between the connecting hole, the connecting post 21 and the clearance hole 22, the assembly feasibility and convenience of the connecting part 3, the body and the shock absorber 1 can be effectively guaranteed, and the stable connection effect can be improved.

[0056] In some embodiments, the connector 3 includes a screw portion 31 and a screw head 32. The connecting hole is configured as a threaded hole 23. The screw portion 31 extends into the threaded hole 23 and is threadedly engaged with the threaded hole 23. The screw head 32 is connected to the end of the screw portion 31 and presses against the bottom surface of the adapter structure 2.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the connector 3 is constructed as a bolt, comprising a screw portion 31 and a screw head 32. The screw head 32 is connected to the end of the screw portion 31. The connecting hole is constructed as a threaded hole 23 extending through the thickness direction of the adapter structure 2. The threaded hole 23 is adapted to the screw portion 31, that is, the screw portion 31 has external threads on its exterior, and the threaded hole 23 has internal threads matching the external threads on its inner circumferential wall. Thus, during actual installation, the connector 3 can be inserted into the threaded hole 23 from bottom to top, and a tight threaded fit between the screw portion 31 and the threaded hole 23 can be achieved by rotating the screw head 32 until the screw head 32 presses against the bottom surface of the adapter structure 2. At this point, the screw portion 31 cannot be further tightened by rotation, thus achieving a tight connection between the shock absorber 1 and the adapter structure 2. When it is necessary to disassemble the shock absorber 1, the screw head 32 can be rotated from below to disengage the screw portion 31 from the threaded hole 23, thereby achieving the disassembly of the shock absorber 1, which is flexible and convenient.

[0058] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the connecting post 21 is configured as an externally threaded segment.

[0059] In other words, the connecting post 21 can be constructed as a cylinder, and part or all of the connecting post 21 can be constructed as an external thread section, that is, the outer side of the connecting post 21 is provided with external threads, and the vehicle body is provided with corresponding through holes that are adapted to the shape and size of the external thread section, so that the external thread section of the connecting post 21 can pass through the through holes and be fixed to the vehicle body or other connecting parts by threaded connection.

[0060] In some embodiments, the thickness of the adapter structure 2 is greater than the thickness of the mounting plate 11.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the adapter structure 2 is installed above the mounting plate 11, and the thickness of the adapter structure 2 is greater than the thickness of the mounting plate 11. The thicker adapter structure 2 can provide better load-bearing capacity and deformation resistance, ensuring that the adapter structure 2 can maintain stability and integrity during vehicle operation, thereby ensuring the connection stability with the vehicle body and shock absorber 1, and enabling the shock absorber 1 to work better to absorb vibration and impact.

[0062] Meanwhile, the thicker adapter structure 2 also provides more installation space, that is, the connector 3 can be connected to the adapter more deeply, increasing the length of the threaded connection between the screw part 31 and the threaded hole 23, thereby further improving the connection stability and reliability between the shock absorber 1 and the adapter structure 2.

[0063] This utility model also proposes a vehicle body assembly.

[0064] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the vehicle body assembly includes a vehicle body and a shock absorber mounting structure 100 of any of the above embodiments. The vehicle body includes a vehicle turret 5. The shock absorber mounting structure 100 is connected to the bottom of the vehicle turret 5, and the connecting post 21 is inserted into the vehicle turret 5 with its upward facing direction and is threadedly connected to the connecting mating part 4 provided on the top of the vehicle turret 5.

[0065] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the shock absorber mounting structure 100 is connected to the bottom of the vehicle turret 5. The vehicle turret 5 includes a vehicle platform 51, the shape of which is adapted to the shape of the adapter structure 2. The vehicle platform 51 is provided with a through hole for the connecting post 21 to pass through. In actual installation, after the connecting post 21 passes through the through hole with its upper face facing upward, the connecting post 21 can be threadedly connected to the connecting mating part 4. That is, an internal thread matching the external thread on the external thread section is provided on the connecting mating part 4. The threaded connection is achieved by matching the internal thread and the external thread, thereby realizing the tight connection between the vehicle turret 5 and the adapter structure 2. Figure 5 The connecting component 4 shown is a nut.

[0066] This utility model also proposes a vehicle.

[0067] The vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the body assembly described in the above embodiment.

[0068] According to the vehicle body assembly of this embodiment, the connection between the adapter structure 2 and the vehicle body is achieved by providing a protruding connecting post 21 on the side of the adapter structure 2 away from the mounting plate 11. The connection between the adapter structure 2 and the shock absorber 1 is achieved by connecting the connecting piece 3 through the mounting plate 11 and connecting it to the adapter structure 2. Thus, the shock absorber 1 can be installed on the top of the vehicle body and removed from the bottom, which improves the convenience of removing the shock absorber 1.
