Description

An engine mount Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of engine technology and relates to an engine bracket. Background Technology

[0002] To protect the engine, it is typically mounted on a base plate, and then an extending bracket is installed on the base plate, with a decorative panel on the bracket to cover the engine. Existing brackets are usually cast from metal, and to reduce weight, they are perforated, which reduces their structural strength. After the bracket is cast, it still needs to be machined, i.e., threaded holes are machined into the frame, which is inefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing an engine mount with low manufacturing cost.

[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] An engine mount includes a mount body made of basalt fiber. Basalt fiber has high strength and is lighter than stainless steel for the same strength, resulting in lower manufacturing costs. The mount body made of basalt fiber can be molded in one piece, achieving high molding efficiency.

[0006] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the bracket body includes a base plate and a vertical plate with its lower end vertically mounted on the base plate. Support plates are vertically mounted on the left and right sides of the vertical plate. The lower end of the support plate is vertically connected to the base plate. The upper end of the vertical plate has a connecting plate for connecting the two support plates. One end of the connecting plate is connected to the upper end of one of the support plates, and the other end is connected to the upper end of the other support plate.

[0007] The two support plates are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the upright plate. The support plates are perpendicular to the base plate, and the lower part of the upright plate is perpendicular to the base plate. The upright plate can be straight or bent in the front-to-back direction according to actual needs, such as bending the upper part of the upright plate backward first and then upward. The two support plates are connected together by a connecting plate, which improves the overall structural strength.

[0008] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the front side of the upright plate is provided with multiple front transverse stiffeners and at least one front vertical stiffener. The multiple front transverse stiffeners are parallel to each other and arranged sequentially from top to bottom and are parallel to the bottom plate. The two ends of the front transverse stiffeners are respectively perpendicularly connected to different support plates. The front vertical stiffeners are parallel to the support plates and intersect perpendicularly with several front transverse stiffeners. The lower end of the front vertical stiffeners is perpendicularly connected to the bottom plate.

[0009] The structural strength of the support can be enhanced by the front transverse stiffeners and the front vertical stiffeners.

[0010] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the rear side of the upright plate is provided with multiple rear transverse stiffeners and at least one rear vertical stiffener. The multiple rear transverse stiffeners are parallel to each other and arranged sequentially from top to bottom, and are parallel to the bottom plate. The two ends of the rear transverse stiffeners are respectively perpendicularly connected to different support plates. The rear vertical stiffener is parallel to the support plate and intersects perpendicularly with several rear transverse stiffeners. The lower end of the rear vertical stiffener is perpendicularly connected to the bottom plate.

[0011] The structural strength of the support is further enhanced by rear transverse stiffeners and rear vertical stiffeners.

[0012] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the number of front transverse stiffeners and rear transverse stiffeners are equal and they are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The front transverse stiffeners and their corresponding rear transverse stiffeners are located on the same plane. The bracket is injection molded in a mold using basalt fiber as the raw material. Designing the opposing front and rear transverse stiffeners on the same plane facilitates mold design and demolding.

[0013] In the aforementioned engine bracket, there is one front vertical stiffener and one rear vertical stiffener, and the front and rear vertical stiffeners are located in the same plane.

[0014] It simplifies mold design and also makes demolding easier.

[0015] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the upright plate and / or support plate are provided with connecting protrusions and / or connecting posts. Both the connecting protrusions and connecting posts are provided with hexagonal mounting holes, and each mounting hole is fitted with a nut.

[0016] The connecting column and mounting hole are formed in one piece along with the bracket body. Then, the nut is installed into the mounting hole. This process cannot be machined, which improves the forming efficiency.

[0017] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the nut is fixed in the mounting hole by heat riveting / bonding. Nuts heat-riveted / bonded in the mounting hole are less likely to fall off and are easy to assemble.

[0018] In the aforementioned engine bracket, the base plate is provided with connection holes.

[0019] Compared with existing technologies, this engine bracket has the following advantages: the bracket body made of basalt fiber has high strength and no hollow structure, which improves the structural strength of the bracket body; compared with metal materials, the bracket body made of basalt fiber is thinner and lighter; no machining is required, which improves the molding efficiency.

Basalt fiber has high strength and, compared to stainless steel, is lighter and cheaper to manufacture for the same strength. The bracket body made of basalt fiber can be molded in one piece, resulting in high molding efficiency.

[0027] As shown in Figures 1-2, the support body includes a base plate 1 and an upright plate 2. The lower part of the upright plate 2 is perpendicular to the base plate 1. In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the upper part of the upright plate 2 is first bent backward and then bent upward. In other embodiments, the upright plate 2 can also be a straight plate. Support plates 3 are vertically provided on the left and right sides of the upright plate 2. The lower end of the support plate 3 is perpendicularly connected to the base plate 1. The upper end of the upright plate 2 has a connecting plate 4 for connecting the two support plates 3. The connecting plate 4 is arc-shaped, and one end of the connecting plate 4 is connected to the upper end of one of the support plates 3, and the other end is connected to the upper end of the other support plate 3. The two support plates 3 are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the upright plate 2. The support plates 3 are perpendicular to the base plate 1. The two support plates 3 are connected together by the connecting plate 4, which improves the overall structural strength.

[0028] As shown in Figure 1, the front side of the upright plate 2 is provided with multiple front transverse stiffeners 5 and one front vertical stiffener 6. The multiple front transverse stiffeners 5 are parallel to each other and arranged sequentially from top to bottom, parallel to the base plate 1. The two ends of the front transverse stiffeners 5 are perpendicularly connected to the support plates 3 located on the left and right sides, respectively. The front vertical stiffener 6 is parallel to the support plates 3 and intersects the multiple front transverse stiffeners 5 perpendicularly. The lower end of the front vertical stiffener 6 is perpendicularly connected to the base plate 1. The front transverse stiffeners 5 and the front vertical stiffener 6 can enhance the structural strength of the support.

[0029] As shown in Figure 2, the rear side of the upright plate 2 is provided with multiple rear transverse stiffeners 7 and one rear vertical stiffener 8. The multiple rear transverse stiffeners 7 are parallel to each other and arranged sequentially from top to bottom, parallel to the base plate 1. The two ends of the rear transverse stiffeners 7 are perpendicularly connected to the support plates 3 located on the left and right sides, respectively. The rear vertical stiffener 8 is parallel to the support plates 3 and intersects the multiple rear transverse stiffeners 7 perpendicularly. The lower end of the rear vertical stiffener 8 is perpendicularly connected to the base plate 1. The rear transverse stiffeners 7 and the rear vertical stiffener 8 further enhance the structural strength of the support.

[0030] As shown in Figure 3, the number of front transverse stiffeners 5 and rear transverse stiffeners 7 are equal and they are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The front transverse stiffeners 5 and their corresponding rear transverse stiffeners 7 are located on the same plane. The bracket is injection molded in a mold using basalt fiber as the raw material. Designing the opposing front transverse stiffeners 5 and rear transverse stiffeners 7 on the same plane facilitates mold design and demolding. As shown in Figure 4, the front vertical stiffeners 6 and rear vertical stiffeners 8 are located in the same plane. This also facilitates mold design and demolding.

[0031] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the upright plate 2 and / or support plate 3 are provided with connecting protrusions 9 and / or connecting columns 10. Both the connecting protrusions 9 and the connecting columns 10 are provided with hexagonal mounting holes, and each mounting hole is fitted with a nut 11. The connecting columns 10 and mounting holes are formed in one piece with the bracket body, and then the nuts 11 are installed into the mounting holes. This process cannot be machined, thus improving forming efficiency.

[0032] In this embodiment, the nut 11 is fixed in the mounting hole by adhesive bonding. The nut 11 bonded in the mounting hole is less likely to fall off and is easy to assemble. In other embodiments, other methods such as tight fit or hot riveting can also be used to fix the nut 11 in the mounting hole.
