The limiting component includes two limiting rods 1 and two limiting rods 2 that are rotatably connected to the outer wall of one end of the car frame, and the two limiting rods are located in two intermediate positions.
[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, each of the two limiting rods 1 and 2 has a bolt 1 slidably inserted into one end at its bottom, and all four bolts 1 are threadedly connected inside the car frame.
[0011] First, flip the limiting rod one and the limiting rod two outwards. The groove of the car frame will no longer be obstructed. Then, place the main body of the side wall panel inside the car frame, flip the limiting rod one and the limiting rod two to make them vertical, and then use bolt one to fix the limiting rod one and the limiting rod two to the outside of the car frame. Multiple positions of the main body of the side wall panel are restricted, which facilitates the smooth installation of the main body of the side wall panel and enhances its stability.
[0012] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a connecting rod is hinged to one side of the outer wall of the first limiting rod and the two second limiting rods, and a mounting seat is provided on the other side of the outer wall of the first limiting rod and the two second limiting rods.

[0013] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the connecting ring, support frame, limit rod one, limit rod two, and connecting rod are all made of aluminum alloy.
[0014] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the corner of the hook plate is set to an arc-shaped edge.
[0015] This utility model provides a car side wall panel connection structure, which has the following advantages:
[0016] (1) By setting up a connecting component, the main body of the side wall panel can be quickly fixed inside the car frame, and each position can also be restricted and fixed, effectively preventing the side wall panel from deforming during use. When the main body of the side wall panel is inserted into the car frame, its external mounting rod and hook plate will pass through the through groove, apply external force to the movable end of the hook plate to drive the mounting rod to rotate, and then the hook plate enters the limiting groove. Under the action of the hook plate, the main body of the side wall panel will be firmly connected to the outside of the connecting ring. The support frame inside the connecting ring can support the main body of the side wall panel. And because the mounting rod is distributed in various positions of the main body of the side wall panel, the main body of the side wall panel can be firmly fixed.
[0017] (2) By setting a limiting component, the limiting rod 1 and the limiting rod 2 are flipped outward in sequence, so that there is no obstruction in the groove of the car frame. Then, the main body of the side wall panel is placed inside the car frame, and the limiting rod 1 and the limiting rod 2 are flipped to make them vertical. Then, the limiting rod 1 and the limiting rod 2 are fixed to the outside of the car frame with bolt 1. Multiple positions of the main body of the side wall panel are restricted, which facilitates the smooth installation of the main body of the side wall panel and enhances its stability.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0024] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown in this embodiment, a car side wall panel connection structure includes a car frame 1 and a side wall panel body 2. The side wall panel body 2 is slidably inserted into the car frame 1. A connecting component 3 is installed between the car frame 1 and the side wall panel body 2. The connecting component 3 includes a connecting ring 301 fixedly connected inside the car frame 1. A vertically arranged support frame 302 is fixedly connected inside the connecting ring 301. The outer wall of the side wall panel body 2 is in contact with the connecting ring 301 and the support frame 302. A plurality of mounting rods 304 are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the side wall panel body 2 near the connecting ring 301. A vertically arranged hook plate 305 is fixedly connected to one end of the plurality of mounting rods 304.
[0025] Both the connecting ring 301 and the support frame 302 have several through slots 303 inside. Several mounting rods 304 are inserted into the several through slots 303 respectively. The bottom inner wall of the several through slots 303 has a limiting slot 306, and several hook plates 305 are located inside the several limiting slots 306 respectively.
[0026] After the side wall panel body 2 is inserted into the car frame 1, its external mounting rod 304 and hook plate 305 will pass through the through groove 303, apply external force to the movable end of the hook plate 305 to drive the mounting rod 304 to rotate, and then the hook plate 305 enters the limiting groove 306. Under the action of the hook plate 305, the side wall panel body 2 will be firmly connected to the outside of the connecting ring 301. The support frame 302 inside the connecting ring 301 can support the side wall panel body 2. And because the mounting rod 304 is distributed in various positions of the side wall panel body 2, the side wall panel body 2 can be firmly fixed.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a limiting component 4 is installed on the outside of the car frame 1. The limiting component 4 includes two limiting rods 401 and two limiting rods 402 that are rotatably connected to the outer wall of one end of the car frame 1. The two 402 are located in the middle of the two 401.
[0028] Each of the two limit rods 401 and 402 has a bolt 403 slidably inserted into one end at its bottom. All four bolts 403 are threaded into the inside of the car frame 1.
[0029] A connecting rod 404 is hinged to one side of the outer wall of the first limiting rod 401 and the two second limiting rods 402. A mounting seat 405 is provided on the other side of the outer wall of the other limiting rod 401 and the two second limiting rods 402. The mounting seat 405 and the connecting rod 404 are threadedly connected by the same bolt 406.
[0030] Flip the limiting rod 401 and the limiting rod 402 outwards, and the groove of the car frame 1 will no longer be obstructed. Then, place the side wall panel body 2 inside the car frame 1, flip the limiting rod 401 and the limiting rod 402 to make them vertical, and then use bolt 403 to fix the limiting rod 401 and the limiting rod 402 to the outside of the car frame 1. Multiple positions of the side wall panel body 2 are restricted, which facilitates the smooth installation of the side wall panel body 2 and enhances its stability. Flip the connecting rod 404 close to the mounting base 405. After the end of the connecting rod 404 enters the mounting base 405, use bolt 406 to connect the two, so that the limiting rod 401 and the limiting rod 402 form a whole, which facilitates the mutual force of each component and helps to improve the limiting effect.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the connecting ring 301, support frame 302, limit rod one 401, limit rod two 402 and connecting rod 404 are all made of aluminum alloy material, which ensures that the structure is strong enough while being lightweight.
[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the corner of the hook plate 305 is set with an arc-shaped edge 307, which makes it convenient for the hook plate 305 to pass through the through groove 303 and enter the limiting groove 306.
[0033] This utility model provides a car side wall panel connection structure, the specific working principle of which is as follows:
[0034] When the device is in operation, the limiting rod 401 and the limiting rod 402 are flipped outwards in sequence, so that the groove of the car frame 1 is no longer obstructed. Then, the side wall panel body 2 is placed inside the car frame 1, and the limiting rods 401 and 402 are flipped to make them vertical. Then, the limiting rods 401 and 402 are fixed to the outside of the car frame 1 using bolt 403. Multiple positions of the side wall panel body 2 are restricted, which facilitates the smooth installation of the side wall panel body 2 and enhances its stability. The connecting rod 404 is flipped close to the mounting base 405. After the end of the connecting rod 404 enters the mounting base 405, the two are connected by bolt 406, so that the limiting rod 401... 401 and the limiting rod 402 form a whole, which facilitates mutual force between the components and helps to improve the limiting effect. When the side wall panel body 2 is inserted into the car frame 1, the external mounting rod 304 and hook plate 305 will pass through the through groove 303, and apply external force to the movable end of the hook plate 305 to drive the mounting rod 304 to rotate. Then the hook plate 305 enters the limiting groove 306. Under the action of the hook plate 305, the side wall panel body 2 will be firmly connected to the outside of the connecting ring 301. The support frame 302 inside the connecting ring 301 can support the side wall panel body 2. And because the mounting rod 304 is distributed in various positions of the side wall panel body 2, the side wall panel body 2 can be firmly fixed.
[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
