[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0024] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-5 The existing expansion tank lower bracket requires connecting the expansion tank to the car, which is not convenient for installation. In order to solve this technical problem, this embodiment discloses the following technical content;

[0025] The vertical plate 1 has first mounting holes 3 at each of its four corners, and a connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the vertical plate 1. A mounting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting plate 4. A hole is opened in the middle of the connecting plate 4. The mounting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner side of the hole in the middle of the connecting plate 4. Several second mounting holes 7 are opened at equal angles at the outer end of the mounting plate 5. A base plate 9 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the vertical plate 1. The bottom end of the first reinforcing plate 8 is fixedly connected to the right end of the upper surface of the base plate 9. The right end of the upper surface of the base plate 9 is fixedly connected to the vertical plate 1. A third mounting hole 10 is opened at each of the four corners of the base plate 9. A fixing plate 12 is fixedly connected to the right end of the lower surface of the base plate 9. A fourth mounting hole 14 is opened at the front, rear, upper, middle and lower ends of the fixing plate 12.

[0026] When installing the lower bracket, the left side of the vertical plate 1 is in contact with one side of the expansion tank, the upper surface of the base plate 9 is in contact with the upper surface of the expansion tank, the mounting plate 5 on the connecting plate 4 is connected to the expansion tank, and the bolts are threaded through the second mounting hole 7 and connected to the connection point on the expansion tank. The base plate 9 supports the bottom of the expansion tank, and the fixing plate 12 is connected to the car. The bolts are threaded through the fourth through hole 13 to fix the fixing plate 12 to the car, so that the lower bracket has the characteristic of easy installation.

[0027] Example 2: Existing expansion tank support brackets are not conducive to increasing stability when the vehicle is moving. Therefore, this example uses the following technical solution, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown;

[0028] The upper right side of the vertical plate 1 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the upper side, and the lower left side of the fixed plate 12 is fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the lower side. The top of the second reinforcing plate 15 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower surface of the base plate 9, and the upper and lower ends of the second reinforcing plate 15 are connected through a stabilizing bolt 16. The outer ends of the stabilizing bolt 16 are threadedly connected to the base plate 9 and the fixed plate 12 respectively.

[0029] Since the front and rear right sides of the vertical plate 1 and the bottom plate 9 are fixedly supported by the first reinforcing plate 8, and the front and rear left sides of the bottom plate 9 and the fixed plate 12 are fixedly connected by the second reinforcing plate 15, the stabilizing bolt 16 is used to fix the second reinforcing plate 15 to the bottom plate 9 and the fixed plate 12. The second reinforcing plate 15 can be fixed or removed according to the interior space design of the car, which can increase the stability of the lower bracket.

[0030] Example 3: The existing expansion tank lower support is a mass-produced product, a connector, and its weight cannot be too heavy during production. Therefore, this example uses the following technical solution, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown;

[0031] The vertical plate 1 has a first through hole 2 in the middle, the connecting plate 4 has several second through holes 6 at its outer end, the bottom plate 9 has a third through hole 11 in the middle of its left end, and the fixing plate 12 has a fourth through hole 13 in the middle.

[0032] Since the vertical plate 1, connecting plate 4, bottom plate 9 and fixing plate 12 are respectively provided with a first through hole 2, a second through hole 6, a third through hole 11 and a fourth through hole 13, the overall weight of the lower support can be reduced without affecting the quality of the lower support. The overall structure of the lower support is simple and lightweight.

[0033] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0034] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
