Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a wheel arch trim bracket with good adaptability, including a bracket body 1, with connectors 2 connected to both ends of the bracket body 1, and a positioning block 3 connected to the end of the bracket body 1 facing the connector 2. One end of the positioning block 3 extends into the positioning groove 4, which is opened on the end of the connector 2 facing the bracket body 1. A fixing groove 5 is opened on one side of the positioning block 3, and one end of a fixing block 6 is connected to the inner side of the fixing groove 5. The other end of the fixing block 6 passes through the connector 2 and is connected to a connecting plate 7. The connecting plate 7 is connected inside the movable groove 8, which is opened on the front end surface of the connector 2. A sliding rod 9 is connected to one side of the bottom end of the connecting plate 7, and one end of the sliding rod 9 extends into a vertical block 10. The vertical block 10 is embedded in one side of the bottom end of the movable groove 8. A through fixing hole 13 is opened on the front end surface of the bottom end of the connector 2. A through buckle groove 14 is opened in a ring array on the front end surface of the bracket body 1.
[0023] Preferably, the fixing block 6 is slidably connected to the positioning block 3 through the fixing groove 5, and the connecting plate 7 is slidably connected to the connecting member 2 through the moving groove 8.
[0024] In actual use, when the connecting plate 7 moves in the moving groove 8, the connecting plate 7 will also drive the fixing block 6 to move in the connecting piece 2. At this time, one end of the fixing block 6 can slide into or separate from the fixing groove 5 on the positioning block 3.
[0025] Preferably, the block 10 is provided with a spring 11 through which the sliding rod 9 passes, and the sliding rod 9 forms an elastic structure with the block 10 through the spring 11.
[0026] In practical use, the sliding rod 9 can slide in the vertical block 10. When the sliding rod 9 slides, it can elastically extend and retract in the vertical block 10 through the spring 11, so that the sliding rod 9 can drive the connecting plate 7 to move in the moving groove 8.
[0027] Preferably, the front surface of the connector 2 has a groove 12, and the position of the groove 12 is connected to the position of the movable groove 8.
[0028] In practical use, the operator inserts their finger into the groove 12 and pushes the connecting plate 7 to slide in the moving groove 8, allowing the operator to easily operate the connecting plate 7 through the groove 12.
[0029] Preferably, a stop block 15 is also connected to the inner surface of the moving groove 8, one side surface of the stop block 15 is in contact with the connecting plate 7, and a pull block 18 is connected to the front surface of the stop block 15.
[0030] In practical use, the stop block 15 can be easily operated by the pull block 18. The stop block 15 can slide in the moving groove 8, so that the stop block 15 can be placed or separated in the moving groove 8. When the stop block 15 is slid into the moving groove 8, one side surface of the stop block 15 contacts the connecting plate 7, thereby limiting the range of motion of the connecting plate 7.
[0031] Preferably, both ends of the stop block 15 are connected to rubber blocks 16, one end of the rubber blocks 16 is engaged in the interior of the slot 17, and the slots 17 are symmetrically opened on both ends of the interior of the moving groove 8.
[0032] In practical use, when the stop block 15 is slidably placed into the moving groove 8, the rubber block 16 on the stop block 15 will also move to the position of the groove 17, so that the rubber block 16 is elastically engaged in the groove 17. At this time, the position of the stop block 15 will be fixed in the moving groove 8, so that the stop block 15 can restrict the position of the connecting plate 7.
[0033] It should be noted that the bracket body 1 and the connector 2 can be customized to the required shape and size for use. By processing the bracket body 1 and connector 2 to match the shape and size of different cars, the wheel arch trim bracket composed of the bracket body 1 and connector 2 can be well adapted to the current car. Therefore, the wheel arch trim bracket composed of the bracket body 1 and connector 2 is a wheel arch trim bracket with excellent adaptability.
[0034] Working principle: When using this highly adaptable wheel arch trim bracket, first screw the bolt through the fixing hole 13 on the connector 2 into the hole at the designated location on the car, allowing the connector 2 to be installed at the designated position on the car. Then, by inserting a finger into the groove 12, the finger pushes the connecting plate 7 to slide in the moving groove 8. At this time, the connecting plate 7 will drive the sliding rod 9 to compress the spring 11 in the upright block 10. Simultaneously, the connecting plate 7 will also slide the fixing block 6 in the connector 2, causing one end of the fixing block 6 to separate from the positioning groove 4. Then, slide the positioning block 3 on the bracket body 1 into the connecting plate. In the positioning groove 4 on component 2, the fixing groove 5 on the positioning block 3 will move to the position of the fixing block 6. Then, release the connecting plate 7, and the spring 11 will push the sliding rod 9 to move in the upright block 10 through elasticity. At this time, the sliding rod 9 will move the connecting plate 7 in the moving groove 8, so that the fixing block 6 connected to the connecting plate 7 can be inserted into the fixing groove 5 on the positioning block 3. At this time, the position of the positioning block 3 will be fixed in the connecting component 2, so that the bracket body 1 and the connecting component 2 are connected together. At this time, the bracket body 1 will also be fixed in the designated position of the car. Then, slide the stop block 15 into the moving groove 8. This allows one side of the stop block 15 to contact the connecting plate 7, while the rubber clip 16 on the stop block 15 moves and engages in the slot 17. At this point, the position of the stop block 15 is fixed in the moving slot 8, allowing the stop block 15 to restrict the position of the connecting plate 7, thereby ensuring the stability of the fixing block 6 after insertion. Then, align one end of the buckle on the wheel arch trim with the buckle slot 14 on the bracket body 1, allowing the wheel arch trim to be installed on the bracket body 1. At the same time, both ends of the wheel arch trim will also cover the connecting piece 2. When the bracket body 1 needs to be disassembled for maintenance, pull the wheel arch trim to allow the wheel arch trim to be installed. The buckles on the curved trim panel separate from the buckle groove 14, allowing the wheel arch trim panel to be removed from the bracket body 1. Then, by pulling the stop block 15 through the pull block 18, the rubber buckle 16 separates from the buckle groove 17. At this time, the stop block 15 can be separated from the moving groove 8. Then, by pushing the connecting plate 7 through the groove 12, the connecting plate 7, along with one end of the fixing block 6, separates from the fixing groove 5 on the positioning block 3. At this time, the positioning block 3 can slide out of the positioning groove 4, allowing the operator to easily remove the bracket body 1 from the connecting piece 2 without tools, thus bringing convenience to the maintenance operation of the wheel arch trim panel bracket.
