Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curtain track installation technology, and in particular to a mounting bracket. This utility model also relates to vehicles using this mounting bracket. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of automobiles, more and more cars are equipped with electric curtains, which can block ultraviolet rays from outside the car and create a private space inside the car, thus gaining favor among consumers.

[0003] In existing technologies, curtain tracks are generally made of extruded aluminum alloy with a uniform cross-sectional shape. During installation, they are typically mounted to the inner panel of the car door using screws and mounting brackets, requiring positioning fixtures for positioning. This installation method results in low worker efficiency because workers need to retrieve and adjust the positioning fixtures and the position of the curtain tracks, and then replace the positioning fixtures after installation.

[0004] Furthermore, the installation cost of curtain tracks is high because different positioning fixtures need to be designed and manufactured to match different car models. Additionally, the lack of positioning fixtures makes installation difficult when curtain tracks need to be disassembled for repair. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a mounting bracket that is simple to operate and can reduce installation costs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A mounting bracket for mounting a curtain track on an external carrier includes a bracket body, and a mounting part, a plug-in part, and a connecting part disposed on the bracket body;

[0008] The bracket body is mounted on the curtain track via the mounting part;

[0009] The plug-in part is used to plug into the external carrier, and the curtain track can be pre-installed on the external carrier;

[0010] The connecting part is used to connect with the external carrier, and can fix the pre-installed curtain rail to the external carrier.

[0011] Furthermore, the bracket body is provided with a guide portion, and the bracket body is slidably connected to the curtain rail through the guide portion, so that it can slide along the length direction of the curtain rail.

[0012] Furthermore, the bracket body includes a plate with the connecting portion; the insertion portion is located above the connecting portion, and the mounting portion and the guide portion are located below the connecting portion.

[0013] Furthermore, a mounting plate is provided on one side of the panel, intersecting with the panel, and the mounting part includes a mounting hole on the mounting plate; the mounting plate is screwed to the curtain rail by a first screw passing through the mounting hole.

[0014] Furthermore, the mounting plate is connected to the plate body via a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate. One end of the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate are connected together, the other end of the first connecting plate is connected to the plate body, and the other end of the second connecting plate is connected to the mounting plate. The first connecting plate and the second connecting plate are arranged intersectingly and are both arranged intersectingly with the mounting plate.

[0015] Furthermore, the insertion part includes an insertion plate arranged intersecting with the plate body, and the external carrier is provided with an insertion hole, into which the insertion plate can be inserted.

[0016] Furthermore, the curtain track is provided with a first guide groove and a second guide groove arranged opposite to each other, and the guide part includes a first guide plate and a second guide plate provided on the plate; the first guide plate can be locked in the first guide groove, and the second guide plate can be locked in the second guide groove.

[0017] Furthermore, there are two first guide plates arranged at a distance from each other, and the two first guide plates are connected together by a third connecting plate; the second guide plate is located between the two first guide plates, and one end of the second guide plate is connected to the third connecting plate.

[0018] Furthermore, the external carrier is provided with a first connecting hole and a threaded sleeve that is engaged with the first connecting hole; the connecting part includes a second connecting hole provided on the plate, and the plate is screwed to the threaded sleeve by a second screw passing through the second connecting hole.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0020] The mounting bracket described in this utility model serves as the basic frame for the entire mounting bracket, providing installation positions and structural support for the mounting section, insertion section, and connecting section. This ensures that all components can be stably assembled and function together. By installing the mounting section onto the curtain track, a preliminary connection is established between the curtain track and the mounting bracket, allowing the mounting bracket to be initially positioned on the curtain track, thus providing a foundation for subsequent pre-installation operations.

[0021] The plug-in design allows the mounting bracket to be quickly and easily plugged into the external carrier, enabling pre-installation of the curtain track. Compared to traditional installation methods, this approach is simpler, significantly reducing installation time and improving efficiency. The connecting part further secures the pre-installed curtain track to the external carrier, ensuring it won't loosen or fall off during use, thus enhancing the stability and safety of the curtain track installation.

[0022] Using this mounting bracket when installing curtain tracks can improve installation efficiency, reduce maintenance and installation difficulty, eliminate the need for positioning tools during installation, simplify operation and facilitate positioning, thereby reducing positioning tool costs and lowering installation costs.

[0023] In addition, when installing curtain tracks, workers can first slide the guide part of the mounting bracket into the curtain track for preliminary engagement. There is no need to precisely align each installation point. After roughly determining the installation position, the mounting bracket can be slid along the curtain track to the appropriate position.

[0024] The sliding connection design allows the mounting bracket to adapt to curtain tracks of different lengths. Regardless of whether the curtain track is short or long, the mounting bracket can be adjusted to the appropriate position for installation by sliding. There is no need to design different specifications of mounting brackets for curtain tracks of different lengths, which helps to reduce production costs and inventory management difficulties.

[0025] The guide design ensures that the mounting bracket always moves along the length of the curtain track during sliding, avoiding deviation or wobbling and guaranteeing the stability of the connection between the mounting bracket and the curtain track.

[0026] The insertion part is located above the connecting part, facilitating insertion operations at a higher position and ensuring a secure pre-installation of the curtain track onto the external carrier. The connecting part is used for the final connection and fixation to the external carrier. This layout allows the two key steps of pre-installation and final fixation to be spatially independent and do not interfere with each other. Operators can more clearly follow the installation process, which helps to improve installation efficiency.

[0027] By placing the connecting part on the panel and rationally arranging the insertion part, mounting part, and guide part around it, the center of gravity of the entire bracket body is distributed more evenly and rationally. After the curtain track is installed, the bracket body can better bear the weight of the curtain and various external forces during use, making it less prone to tilting or swaying, thus ensuring the stability and safety of the curtain. The placement of the insertion part above the connecting part allows the mounting bracket to better adapt to external carriers of different heights and structures during pre-installation.

[0028] Screw connection is a common mechanical connection method. By passing a screw through a mounting hole and engaging with the curtain track, a strong mechanical clamping force is created. This clamping force effectively and firmly connects the mounting plate to the curtain track, withstanding various tensile, compressive, and torque forces generated during curtain use. This ensures a stable and reliable connection between the curtain track and the mounting bracket, preventing loosening or detachment.

[0029] The pre-drilled mounting holes on the mounting plate provide precise positioning for the first screw. Installers simply pass the first screw through the mounting hole and align it with the threaded hole on the curtain track to perform the screwing operation, eliminating the need for additional positioning tools or complex adjustment processes, thus greatly improving installation accuracy and efficiency.

[0030] If the position of the curtain track needs fine-tuning during actual installation, simply loosen the first screw, adjust the relative position of the mounting plate and the curtain track, and then retighten the screw. This adjustability allows installers to flexibly adjust the installation position of the curtain track according to the actual situation, ensuring that the installation effect of the curtains meets the design requirements, and also facilitates the maintenance, replacement, or repair of the curtain track or mounting bracket.

[0031] The connection method between the first and second connecting plates and the mounting plate and panel body effectively resists external forces from all directions, preventing the mounting plate from shaking or deforming during use and ensuring a stable and reliable connection between the curtain track and the mounting bracket. The presence of the first and second connecting plates increases the connection area between the mounting plate and the panel body, allowing the mounting plate to withstand greater external forces. Compared to directly connecting the mounting plate to the panel body, this connection structure better distributes and bears the load transmitted from the curtain track, thus improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the mounting bracket.

[0032] Because the first and second connecting plates intersect with the mounting plate and the plate body, and have a certain range of length and angle adjustment, installers can flexibly adjust the relative position and angle between the mounting plate and the plate body according to actual installation needs. This allows the mounting bracket to adapt to external carriers of different shapes and structures, such as straight, curved, or irregularly shaped mounting surfaces, improving installation adaptability. The design of the first and second connecting plates makes the connection between the mounting plate and the plate body more compact, reducing the space occupied by the mounting bracket.

[0033] The connection between the connector plate and the connector hole is very intuitive. Installers simply align the connector plate with the connector hole and insert it firmly to complete the connection. The entire installation process requires no complicated tools or cumbersome steps, greatly reducing installation difficulty and improving efficiency.

[0034] Once the connector plate is inserted into the connector hole, its shape and size match the hole, effectively resisting external forces from all directions and preventing relative displacement or loosening between the plate and the external carrier. When maintenance, replacement, or upgrades are required for the plate or external carrier, simply pull the connector plate out of the connector hole to separate them. This detachability makes maintenance and replacement very convenient and quick, without damaging the original connection structure, thus reducing maintenance costs.

[0035] The correspondence between the first guide plate and the first guide groove, and between the second guide plate and the second guide groove, is clear. Installers simply align the first guide plate with the first guide groove and the second guide plate with the second guide groove, then push the plate to engage the guide plates in the guide grooves, allowing the mounting bracket to slide on the curtain track. This installation method eliminates complex steps and significantly improves installation efficiency. The first guide plate engaging in the first guide groove and the second guide plate engaging in the second guide groove form a double-guide structure. This structure increases the contact area between the plate and the curtain track, enhancing the connection strength. It also effectively restricts the plate's movement in directions perpendicular to the sliding direction, preventing misalignment or wobbling after installation and ensuring a stable and reliable connection between the curtain track and the plate.

[0036] The structure formed by the two first guide plates and the second guide plate allows installers to quickly and intuitively determine the installation direction and position of the panel based on its structure, greatly reducing the trial and error time during installation and improving installation efficiency. The two first guide plates are connected by a third connecting plate to form a stable frame structure. This structure effectively resists the torque exerted on the panel during installation and use, preventing the panel from twisting or deforming, ensuring the stability of the connection between the curtain track and the panel, and also allowing the mounting bracket to be integrally formed using sheet metal technology.

[0037] The positions of the first connecting hole on the external carrier and the second connecting hole on the plate are clearly defined. Installers simply need to place the plate in the appropriate position, align the second connecting hole with the first connecting hole, insert the second screw, and tighten it to complete the installation. This intuitive installation method eliminates the need for complex procedures and precise measurements, significantly improving installation efficiency. The threaded sleeve engages with the first connecting hole, providing a stable foundation for the second screw's threaded connection. When the second screw passes through the second connecting hole and engages with the threaded sleeve, a strong connection is formed, capable of withstanding significant tensile and shear forces, ensuring that the connection between the plate and the external carrier will not easily loosen or detach.

[0038] Because of the screw connection, the connection between the board and the external carrier is detachable. If the position of the board needs to be adjusted or the board needs to be replaced, simply loosen the second screw to easily remove the board from the external carrier. When inspection and maintenance of the board or the external carrier are required, the detachable connection structure allows operators to quickly access the relevant components without damaging the overall structure; simply loosening the second screw allows the board to be removed, facilitating detailed inspection and maintenance.

[0039] Another objective of this utility model is to provide a vehicle in which the curtain rail is mounted on the inner door panel via the mounting bracket described above, and the inner door panel serves as the external carrier.

[0040] The vehicle described in this utility model has the same beneficial effects as the aforementioned mounting bracket compared to the prior art. Furthermore, the precise fit between the first and second guide plates on the mounting bracket and the inner door panel, as well as the precise correspondence between the second connecting hole in the connecting part and the first connecting hole and screw sleeve on the inner door panel, provide clear positioning guidance for the installation of the curtain rail. Installers can quickly and accurately determine the installation position of the curtain rail, greatly shortening assembly time and improving vehicle production efficiency.

[0041] The mounting bracket design fully considers the space constraints of the car door inner panel. Through a reasonable structural layout, the curtain track can be stably installed within the limited space of the door inner panel. Vibrations will occur during vehicle movement. The mounting bracket, through its reasonable structural design, can effectively resist the impact of vibration on the connection structure, prevent the curtain track from loosening or falling off, and ensure the long-term stable operation of the curtain system.

[0062] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0063] Example 1

[0064] With the rapid development of the automotive industry, cars have long become a "second space" in people's mobile lives. To meet consumers' higher demands for comfort and privacy, more and more cars are equipped with electric curtains. Electric curtains can not only effectively block the strong ultraviolet rays from outside the car, protecting the skin of passengers and the interior from UV damage, but also create a private and quiet in-car environment when needed, allowing passengers to enjoy a unique tranquility and freedom during their journey.

[0065] However, in the practical application of motorized curtains, the installation process presents numerous problems that urgently need to be addressed. Currently, curtain tracks are typically manufactured using aluminum alloy extrusion molding. While this process ensures a certain level of strength and precision, the uniform cross-sectional shape results in a lack of flexibility and adaptability during installation. During installation, curtain tracks are generally fixed to the inner panel of the door using screws and mounting brackets. To ensure accurate positioning, workers often need to use positioning fixtures.

[0066] This traditional installation method, while seemingly simple, actually has many drawbacks. First, during installation, workers need to frequently pick up and adjust the positioning fixtures and the curtain tracks. This series of operations not only increases the workers' workload but also significantly extends the installation time. This inefficient installation method undoubtedly slows down the overall production pace, leading to a substantial decrease in worker efficiency. Second, after installation, workers also need to return the positioning fixtures to their designated positions, which undoubtedly adds another step and further reduces work efficiency.

[0067] Besides efficiency, installation cost is another factor that cannot be ignored. Because the structure and dimensions of the door panels differ between car models, specialized positioning fixtures need to be designed for each model to ensure accurate installation of the curtain rails.

[0068] This means that for each new car model launched, automakers need to invest significant human, material, and financial resources in the design and manufacture of positioning fixtures. From the drawing and simulation analysis in the design phase to the material procurement and processing in the manufacturing phase, each step requires substantial costs. These costs are ultimately factored into the car's production cost, resulting in persistently high installation costs for curtain tracks.

[0069] Furthermore, positioning tools are crucial when curtain tracks malfunction and require disassembly and repair. However, in practice, due to limited availability, scattered storage locations, or workers' unfamiliarity with their operation, suitable positioning tools may not be readily available during repairs. This makes curtain track installation extremely difficult. Workers may need to spend considerable time and effort figuring out the correct installation position and angle, and improper installation could even damage the tracks, further increasing repair costs and time.

[0070] To address the aforementioned issues, this embodiment provides an installation bracket 1, which offers a novel installation method for the curtain track 2. This method improves curtain assembly efficiency, reduces maintenance and installation difficulty, and eliminates the need for positioning fixtures during installation.

[0071] Based on the above design concept, an exemplary structure of the mounting bracket 1 applied to the external carrier 3 in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the figure, an exemplary structural diagram of the mounting bracket 1 and the curtain track 2 in this embodiment is as follows. Figures 2 to 4 As shown.

[0072] The mounting bracket 1 in this embodiment is used to mount the curtain rail 2 onto an external carrier 3. In the following description, the external carrier 3 is the window frame on the inner panel of the car door. The mounting bracket 1 mainly includes a bracket body, and a mounting part 1031, a plug-in part 102, and a connecting part 1011 provided on the bracket body.

[0073] The bracket body is installed on the curtain track 2 via the mounting part 1031, the plug-in part 102 is used to plug into the external carrier 3, and the curtain track 2 can be pre-installed on the external carrier 3. The connecting part 1011 is connected to the external carrier 3, and the pre-installed curtain track 2 can be fixed on the external carrier 3.

[0074] In the above structure, the bracket body serves as the core of the structural support, connecting and functionally implementing the mounting part 1031, the insertion part 102, and the connecting part 1011, ensuring the stability of the overall structure. The mounting part 1031 is used to achieve a quick connection between the bracket body and the curtain track 2, enabling the initial fixation of the mounting bracket 1 onto the curtain track 2.

[0075] The plug-in part 102 pre-fixes the bracket to the external carrier 3, such as the window frame, through a plug-in method, which reduces the difficulty of holding the curtain rail 2 during installation. The connecting part 1011 is used to connect with the external carrier 3, making it easy to firmly fix the pre-installed curtain rail 2 onto the external carrier 3.

[0076] During the specific installation process, after the mounting bracket 1 is fixed to the curtain rail 2 by the mounting part 1031, the mounting bracket 1 and the curtain rail 2 are connected together. The external carrier 3 can be quickly inserted through the plug part 102, thereby realizing the pre-installation of the curtain rail 2, that is, temporary fixation. In this way, the initial positioning of the curtain rail 2 can be completed without positioning fixtures, saving the existing positioning fixtures.

[0077] Since the insertion part 102 provides the installation base for fixing the curtain track 2, and the final fixing can be completed by the connecting part 1011, it can be seen that the installation of the curtain track 2 includes two processes: quick pre-installation and precise fixing. The operation is simple and convenient during the installation process, and the positioning tooling and related costs can be saved.

[0078] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the bracket body is provided with a guide portion 106, and the bracket body is slidably connected to the curtain track 2 through the guide portion 106, so that it can slide along the length direction of the curtain track 2.

[0079] In this preferred embodiment, the bracket body slides into the curtain track 2 via the guide portion 106, allowing the bracket body to move freely along the length of the curtain track 2. When the mounting bracket 1 is actually installed on the curtain track 2, it can slide into the curtain track 2 via the guide portion 106, allowing the bracket body to quickly slide to the installation position. Then, the mounting bracket 1 can be fixed to the curtain track 2 via the aforementioned mounting portion 1031.

[0080] Furthermore, in the above structure, when the mounting bracket 1 is installed on the curtain track 2, no external positioning structure is required, as the guide portion 106 can limit the relative position of the mounting bracket 1 and the curtain track 2. The structure in which the guide portion 106 is slidably connected to the external carrier 3 allows the mounting bracket 1 to be installed on the curtain track 2 by first sliding and then fixing, which is convenient and can significantly improve the efficiency of the curtain track 2 installation process.

[0081] As a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the main body of the bracket includes a plate 101 with a connecting part 1011, a plug-in part 102 located above the connecting part 1011, and a mounting part 1031 and a guide part 106 located below the connecting part 1011.

[0082] Here, the plate 101 serves as the main support, that is, the plate 101 provides an integrated installation platform for the mounting part 1031, the plug-in part 102, the connecting part 1011, and the guide part 106, which can ensure the relative position stability of each component and provide an installation foundation for the forming of the mounting part 1031, the plug-in part 102, the connecting part 1011, and the guide part 106.

[0083] The insertion part 102 is positioned above the connecting part 1011, which facilitates the secure pre-installation of the curtain rail 2 onto the external carrier 3. The mounting part 1031 and the guide part 106 are positioned below the connecting part 1011, which facilitates the installation of the mounting bracket 1 onto the curtain rail 2. This arrangement makes it easy to process the various structures such as the mounting part 1031, the insertion part 102, the connecting part 1011, and the guide part 106. It also makes it easy to install the mounting bracket 1 onto the curtain rail 2, and it is also easy to install the mounting bracket 1 and the curtain rail 2 onto the external carrier 3.

[0084] Continue to refer to Figure 4 , Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, a mounting plate 103 is provided on one side of the plate 101 and is arranged intersecting with the plate 101. The mounting part 1031 includes a mounting hole provided on the mounting plate 103. The curtain rail 2 is provided with a threaded hole 201. The mounting plate 103 is screwed to the threaded hole 201 by a first screw 5 passing through the mounting hole.

[0085] In this structure, the mounting plate 103 is arranged intersecting the plate body 101, for example, the mounting plate 103 intersects the plate body 101 perpendicularly, which can form an L-shaped support structure, enhancing the structural stability of the mounting bracket 1. The mounting plate 103 can provide a mounting surface. In specific implementations, the mounting hole can be, for example, an oblong hole or a slotted hole, allowing the first screw 5 to be finely adjusted in position within the hole to compensate for installation errors.

[0086] Screw connection is a common mechanical connection method. The first screw 5 passes through the mounting hole and fits tightly with the threaded hole 201 on the curtain rail 2, which can form a strong mechanical interlocking force. This interlocking force can effectively connect the mounting plate 103 and the curtain rail 2 together, withstand the various tensions, pressures and torques generated during the use of the curtain, and ensure that the connection between the curtain rail 2 and the mounting bracket 1 is stable and reliable, and not easy to loosen or fall off.

[0087] The pre-set mounting holes on the mounting plate 103 provide accurate positioning for the installation of the first screw 5. The installer only needs to pass the first screw 5 through the mounting hole and align it with the threaded hole 201 on the curtain rail 2 to perform the screwing operation. No additional positioning tools or complicated adjustment process are required, which can greatly improve the accuracy and efficiency of the installation.

[0088] In addition, screw connections can usually be completed using common tools such as screwdrivers or wrenches, which are readily available at the installation site. Operators do not need to carry special installation tools, which can reduce installation costs and difficulty.

[0089] When maintenance, replacement, or repair is required for the curtain track 2 or the mounting bracket 1, simply loosen the first screw 5 to separate the mounting plate 103 from the curtain track 2, which is convenient and quick. After repair, the mounting plate 103 can be reconnected to the curtain track 2 using the first screw 5, eliminating the need for complicated disassembly and installation processes and reducing maintenance costs and time. If the first screw 5 is damaged or worn, the corresponding part can be replaced individually without replacing the entire mounting bracket 1 or curtain track 2, improving component utilization and maintenance economy.

[0090] like Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the mounting plate 103 is connected to the plate body 101 via a first connecting plate 104 and a second connecting plate 105. One end of the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 are connected together, the other end of the first connecting plate 104 is connected to the plate body 101, and the other end of the second connecting plate 105 is connected to the mounting plate 103. Preferably, the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 are arranged intersectingly, and both are arranged intersecting with the mounting plate 103.

[0091] In this embodiment, the second connecting plate 105 is parallel to the plate body 101, the first connecting plate 104 is perpendicular to the second connecting plate 105, and the first connecting plate 104 is perpendicular to the plate body 101. The mounting plate 103 is perpendicular to the first connecting plate 104, and the mounting plate 103 is perpendicular to the second connecting plate 105.

[0092] This arrangement of the first connecting plate 104, the second connecting plate 105, the mounting plate 103, and the plate body 101 can effectively resist external forces from all directions, prevent the mounting plate 103 from shaking or deforming during use, and ensure a stable and reliable connection between the curtain track 2 and the mounting bracket 1.

[0093] When the curtain track 2 is subjected to tension or pressure, the stress is evenly distributed to the plate 101 through the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105, avoiding localized damage caused by stress concentration. At the same time, this stress distribution method can also reduce the force on the connection 1011 between the mounting plate 103 and the curtain track 2, reducing the risk of loosening of the connection.

[0094] The presence of the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 increases the connection area between the mounting plate 103 and the plate body 101, enabling the mounting plate 103 to withstand greater external forces. Compared to directly connecting the mounting plate 103 to the plate body 101, this connection structure can better distribute and bear the load transmitted from the curtain track 2, improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the mounting bracket 1.

[0095] Furthermore, the addition of the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 helps to improve the overall rigidity of the mounting bracket 1, making it less prone to deformation under external forces. This increased rigidity helps maintain the installation accuracy of the curtain track 2, ensuring smooth opening and closing of the curtains.

[0096] Since the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 are arranged intersecting with the mounting plate 103 and the plate body 101, and have a certain length and angle adjustment space, installers can flexibly adjust the relative position and angle between the mounting plate 103 and the plate body 101 according to actual installation needs. This allows the mounting bracket 1 to adapt to external carriers 3 of different shapes and structures, such as straight, curved, or irregularly shaped mounting surfaces, improving the adaptability of the installation.

[0097] During installation, if the position of the mounting plate 103 needs fine-tuning, this can be achieved by adjusting the angle or length of the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105. This adjustability allows installers to install the curtain track 2 more precisely, ensuring that the installation meets design requirements.

[0098] The design of the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 makes the connection between the mounting plate 103 and the plate body 101 more compact, which can reduce the space occupied by the mounting bracket 1. This is especially important for installation environments with limited space, such as small windows or narrow installation spaces, so as to make full use of limited space resources to realize the installation of the curtain track 2.

[0099] The intersecting arrangement of the first connecting plate 104 and the second connecting plate 105 allows the mounting plate 103 to be positioned appropriately, providing installers with more operating space and facilitating installation operations such as screw connection. Simultaneously, this structure also facilitates the use of installation tools, improving installation efficiency and accuracy.

[0100] As a preferred implementation method, refer to Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the plug-in part 102 includes a plug-in plate arranged intersecting with the plate body 101, and the outer carrier 3 is provided with a plug-in hole 302, in which the plug-in plate can be plugged into the plug-in hole 302.

[0101] In this embodiment, the plug-in plate is perpendicular to the plate body 101. This structure makes the plug-in plate and the plug-in hole 302 very convenient to connect. The installer only needs to align the plug-in plate with the plug-in hole 302 and then insert it firmly to complete the connection. The entire installation process does not require complicated tools or cumbersome operating steps, which can greatly reduce the installation difficulty and improve the installation efficiency. Compared with other connection methods, such as screw connection and welding, plug-in connection is faster. In the case of batch installation, it can significantly shorten the installation cycle and reduce labor costs.

[0102] The shape and size of the connector plate match the connector hole 302. When the connector plate is inserted into the connector hole 302, a tight mechanical engagement is formed between the two, which can effectively resist external forces from all directions and prevent relative displacement or loosening between the plate 101 and the external carrier 3. By optimizing parameters such as the thickness, width, and length of the connector plate, as well as the shape and size of the connector hole 302, the load-bearing capacity of the connector can be improved, ensuring a stable and reliable connection between the plate 101 and the external carrier 3.

[0103] During installation, the two parts can be separated simply by forcefully pulling the connector plate out of the connector hole 302. This removability makes maintenance and replacement very convenient and quick, without damaging the original connection structure, thus reducing maintenance costs.

[0104] like Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the curtain rail 2 is provided with a first guide groove 202 and a second guide groove 203 arranged opposite to each other, and the guide part 106 includes a first guide plate 1061 and a second guide plate 1062 provided on the plate body 101; the first guide plate 1061 can be locked in the first guide groove 202, and the second guide plate 1062 can be locked in the second guide groove 203.

[0105] Here, the correspondence between the first guide plate 1061 and the first guide groove 202, and between the second guide plate 1062 and the second guide groove 203, is clear. The installer only needs to align the first guide plate 1061 with the first guide groove 202 and the second guide plate 1062 with the second guide groove 203, and then push the plate body 101 to engage the guide plates in the guide grooves, thus completing the initial installation positioning. This intuitive installation method eliminates the need for complex operating procedures and precise measurements, greatly improving installation efficiency.

[0106] The first guide plate 1061 is fitted into the first guide groove 202, and the second guide plate 1062 is fitted into the second guide groove 203, forming a double-guide structure. This structure effectively restricts the movement of the panel 101 in both the horizontal and vertical directions, preventing the panel 101 from shifting or wobbling after installation, and ensuring a stable and reliable connection between the curtain track 2 and the panel 101. This structure also increases the contact area between the panel 101 and the curtain track 2, improving the connection strength. Compared to other connection methods, such as screw connections, this structure can withstand greater external forces and is less prone to loosening or detachment.

[0107] The precise fit of each guide groove and guide plate ensures the installation accuracy between the plate 101 and the curtain rail 2, enabling the curtain rail 2 to be accurately installed in the predetermined position, providing a good foundation for the subsequent installation and use of the curtains.

[0108] When the curtain track 2 is subjected to external force, the stress will be evenly distributed to the panel 101 through the guide part 106, preventing local damage caused by stress concentration. This stress distribution method can extend the service life of the curtain track 2 and the panel 101.

[0109] If maintenance, replacement or upgrade of the curtain track 2 or the panel 101 is required, the two can be separated simply by sliding the mounting bracket 1 relative to the curtain track 2. This detachability makes maintenance and replacement very convenient and quick, without damaging the original connection structure.

[0110] Continue to refer to Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, there are two first guide plates 1061 arranged at a distance, and the two first guide plates 1061 are connected by a third connecting plate 1063; the second guide plate 1062 is located between the two first guide plates 1061, and one end of the second guide plate 1062 is connected to the third connecting plate 1063.

[0111] Here, the structure formed by the two first guide plates 1061 and the second guide plate 1062 allows installers to intuitively determine the installation direction and position of the plate 101 based on the distribution of each guide plate, greatly shortening the exploration time during the installation process and improving installation efficiency.

[0112] In a preferred embodiment, a first guide plate 1061, a second guide plate 1062, another first guide plate 1061, and the aforementioned mounting plate are arranged sequentially, facilitating the integral molding of the mounting bracket 1 using sheet metal technology. Furthermore, the two first guide plates 1061 and the second guide plate 1062 are coplanar and parallel to the mounting plate, facilitating the installation of the mounting bracket 1 onto the curtain track 2.

[0113] The two first guide plates 1061 are connected by a third connecting plate 1063 to form a stable frame structure. This structure can effectively resist the torque applied to the plate 101 during installation and use, prevent the plate 101 from twisting and deforming, and ensure the stability of the connection between the curtain track 2 and the plate 101.

[0114] The second guide plate 1062 is located between the two first guide plates 1061 and is connected to the third connecting plate 1063, which can further enhance the load-bearing capacity of the entire guide structure. The three guide plates work together to withstand greater external forces, ensuring that the curtain track 2 will not loosen or fall off during long-term use.

[0115] As a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the external carrier 3 is provided with a first connecting hole 301 and a screw sleeve 4 that is engaged with the first connecting hole 301. The aforementioned connecting part 1011 includes a second connecting hole provided on the plate 101. The plate 101 is screwed to the screw sleeve 4 by a second screw 6 passing through the second connecting hole.

[0116] In this embodiment, the positions of the first connecting hole 301 on the external carrier 3 and the second connecting hole on the plate 101 are clearly corresponding. The installer only needs to place the plate 101 in the appropriate position, align the second connecting hole with the first connecting hole 301, insert the second screw 6, and tighten it to complete the installation. This structure eliminates the need for complex operating steps and precise measurements, greatly improving installation efficiency. Compared to some connection methods that require special tools or complex processes, this structure only requires a regular screwdriver for installation, reducing installation costs and the skill level required of the installer.

[0117] The existing structure can be used for the threaded sleeve 4, which is snapped into the first connecting hole 301, providing a stable threaded connection base for the second screw 6. When the second screw 6 passes through the second connecting hole and is screwed into the threaded sleeve 4, a strong connection can be formed, which can withstand greater tensile and shear forces, ensuring that the connection between the plate 101 and the external carrier 3 will not easily loosen or fall off.

[0118] The presence of the threaded sleeve 4 effectively protects the first connecting hole 301 on the external carrier 3, preventing thread damage caused by frequent screwing and disassembly. Even if the threaded sleeve 4 wears out, it can be easily replaced, extending the service life of the external carrier 3.

[0119] Because of the screw connection, the connection between the plate 101 and the external carrier 3 is detachable. If the position of the plate 101 needs to be adjusted or the plate 101 needs to be replaced, simply loosen the second screw 6 to easily remove the plate 101 from the external carrier 3. When the plate 101 or the external carrier 3 needs to be inspected and repaired, the detachable connection structure makes it convenient for operators to assemble and disassemble without damaging the overall structure. Simply remove the second screw 6 to remove the plate 101 for detailed inspection and repair.

[0120] Finally, it should be noted that, according to... Figure 5 As shown, the lower part of the curtain track 2 is provided with a ball joint 204, which is specifically a ball joint 204. Figure 5 The ball joint groove shown is used to connect with a curtain ball joint (not shown). Specifically, one end of the curtain ball joint is connected to the curtain, and the other end is embedded in the ball joint groove, forming a structure in which the curtain ball joint can slide relative to the curtain track 2.

[0121] In addition, a blocking part 205 is provided on the upper part of the curtain track 2. In a preferred embodiment, the blocking part 205 is a blocking plate provided on one side of the curtain track 2, and the blocking plate extends along the length direction of the curtain track 2. Figure 5 The structure shown illustrates the cross-sectional shape of the curtain track 2, revealing the placement of the blinds. After the curtain track 2 is mounted on the external carrier 3 using the mounting bracket 1, the blinds partially obscure the mounting bracket 1, improving the overall appearance.

[0122] The mounting bracket 1 in this embodiment can improve the installation efficiency of the curtain track 2, reduce the difficulty of maintenance and installation, and is simple to operate and easy to position during installation. No positioning tooling is required during the installation process, which can reduce the cost of positioning tooling and thus reduce the installation cost.

[0123] Example 2

[0124] This embodiment relates to a vehicle in which the curtain rail 2 is mounted on the inner door panel via the mounting bracket 1 as described in Embodiment 1, and the inner door panel is the aforementioned external carrier 3.

[0125] Still refer to Figure 1 As shown, the curtain track 2 is mounted on the inner panel of the car door by multiple mounting brackets 1. The multiple mounting brackets 1 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the curtain track 2. In this embodiment, two mounting brackets 1 are used. It should be understood that the number of mounting brackets 1 can of course be other numbers, such as three, four, etc.

[0126] The vehicle in this embodiment has the same beneficial effects as the aforementioned mounting bracket 1 compared to the prior art. Furthermore, applying the mounting bracket 1 of Embodiment 1 to the vehicle field enables the secure installation of the curtain rail 2 on the inner door panel. This design demonstrates significant advantages in vehicle assembly, space utilization, structural stability, and ease of maintenance, providing strong support for optimizing and enhancing the functionality of vehicle interiors.

[0127] In addition, by applying the mounting bracket 1 of Embodiment 1 in the field of vehicles, not only can the installation efficiency and stability of the curtain rail 2 be improved, but it also has a positive effect on reducing vehicle costs.
