Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, specifically a fuel line bracket. Background Technology
[0002] In existing automobiles, fuel lines are secured using clamps. The fuel line passes through the clamp and is positioned using the clamp. The automotive fuel line support system is a comprehensive system that ensures the normal operation of the fuel line and secures the vehicle's engine fuel line, guaranteeing driving safety. However, because the fuel line is circular, traditional fuel line supports have several drawbacks: the single-sided support structure of the semi-circular groove cannot evenly distribute pressure, making the fuel line prone to deformation or damage due to long-term unilateral compression; the metal support is in direct contact with the fuel line without elastic buffering design, making it difficult to absorb the impact force from vehicle vibration; and the fixing structure lacks flexibility and cannot adapt to the slight displacement of the fuel line due to temperature changes or mechanical vibration, leading to stress accumulation at the connection point. Therefore, we propose a fuel line support to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a fuel pipe bracket, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a fuel pipe bracket, including an arched mounting plate, wherein the arched mounting plate is provided with a limit hole, a mounting hole and a movable hole, and a fixing component is provided on the arched mounting plate;
[0005] The fixing assembly includes a fixing cylinder, a movable column, an arc plate, a rubber pad, a first resistance spring, a first magnetic component, a second resistance spring, and a second magnetic component, wherein:
[0006] The fixed cylinder is mounted on the arched mounting plate;
[0007] The movable column slides through the fixed cylinder, and one end of it is connected to an arc plate;
[0008] The rubber pad is disposed on the side of the arc-shaped plate near the fuel pipe;
[0009] The resistance spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the movable column, located between the inner side of the arched mounting plate and the arc plate;
[0010] The magnetic component one and the resisting spring two are disposed inside the fixed cylinder, and the resisting spring two is located between the magnetic component one and the magnetic component two. The opposite surfaces of the magnetic component one and the magnetic component two have the same polarity.
[0011] Furthermore, the arched mounting plate has an arc-shaped structure, and multiple mounting holes are provided. The multiple mounting holes are evenly distributed on the edge of the arched mounting plate, and the movable holes are opened on the inner wall of the arched mounting plate.
[0012] Furthermore, the first magnetic component is a permanent magnet, and the second magnetic component is a permanent magnet or an electromagnet.
[0013] Furthermore, the fixed cylinder is fixedly installed in the mounting hole on the arched mounting plate, the movable column is slidably connected to the fixed cylinder, the diameter of the movable column is smaller than the inner diameter of the fixed cylinder, and one end of the movable column penetrates the interior of the movable hole.
[0014] Furthermore, the arc-shaped plate is semi-circular, the shape of the rubber pad is adapted to the shape of the arc-shaped plate, and the rubber pad is glued to the arc-shaped plate.
[0015] Furthermore, the arched mounting plate is provided with fixing bolts, the bottom of which passes through the arched mounting plate and connects to the vehicle body.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1. This fuel line bracket, through the arc-shaped plate and the arc-shaped rubber pad fitting structure, forms a flexible support that matches the outer surface of the fuel line, replacing the traditional one-sided rigid fixation of the bracket. This reduces local pressure, and the elastic buffering effect of the first spring can absorb vehicle vibration and impact, avoiding wear and damage to the fuel line caused by rigid contact. The second spring inside the fixed cylinder, together with the magnetic repulsion force of the first and second magnetic components, forms a double elastic limit, allowing the movable column to adaptively adjust with the slight displacement of the fuel line, maintaining uniform pressure. When the fuel line is subjected to external force, the arc-shaped plate, through the sliding of the movable column and the elastic feedback of the spring and magnetic components, avoids pipe deformation or breakage caused by stress concentration.
[0018] 2. This fuel line bracket, through the combination of the arc design of the arched mounting plate and the evenly distributed mounting holes on the edge, provides balanced support force when connected to the vehicle body via fixing bolts, enhancing the overall rigidity of the bracket; the setting of the limiting holes facilitates quick positioning and installation, reduces assembly errors, and improves installation efficiency; the magnetic component two can be a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, suitable for static fixing or dynamic adjustment scenarios; the sliding fit between the movable column and the fixed cylinder and the setting of the movable holes allow the fuel line to undergo slight displacement when the temperature changes or vibrations occur, avoiding pipeline stress caused by rigid connections and improving the long-term reliability of the system;
[0019] The fixing component achieves multi-directional elastic constraint on the fuel line through the synergistic action of the arc plate, rubber pad, double springs and magnetic components. This ensures both fixing stability and allows for reasonable degrees of freedom, effectively solving the problem of pipe wall damage caused by the pressure of metal components in traditional brackets, and improving the safety of the fuel line system.
