Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle bodies, and more particularly to an mounting structure and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In a vehicle, the headlights are the main lighting equipment. They are generally mounted on a bracket structure located at the front of the vehicle body. The front of the vehicle body usually has a bracket structure in the shape of a "Z" or a box for mounting the headlights.

[0003] However, while these U-shaped or box-shaped bracket structures can accommodate the installation of headlights, they also have drawbacks such as the inability to adjust the headlight mounting position and difficulty in ensuring the accuracy of the headlight mounting position, which is detrimental to improving the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this application aims to propose an installation structure to improve the appearance quality of the front end of the vehicle body.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this application is implemented as follows:

[0006] A mounting structure suitable for mounting headlights in a vehicle body, comprising a structural body disposed at the front end of the vehicle body;

[0007] The structural body includes a fixed bracket fixed in the vehicle body and a mounting bracket located at one end of the fixed bracket.

[0008] The fixed bracket has a connecting plane at one end of the mounting bracket, and the mounting bracket has a mating plane and a headlight mounting point located above the mating plane;

[0009] The mating plane is attached to the connecting plane, and the mounting bracket and the fixing bracket are connected by welding. Before welding, the mounting bracket can be adjusted in position relative to the fixing bracket in the vertical direction of the vehicle.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing bracket is L-shaped and includes connected horizontal and vertical plates;

[0011] One end of the horizontal plate is fixed to the vehicle body, and one side of the vertical plate forms the connecting plane.

[0012] Furthermore, the left and right sides of the horizontal plate are respectively provided with first flanges, and the left and right sides of the vertical plate are respectively provided with second flanges;

[0013] The first flange on each side and the second flange on the same side are welded together.

[0014] Furthermore, the mounting bracket includes a mounting plate arranged along the vertical direction of the vehicle;

[0015] The mounting plate has a mating plane on the side facing the fixed bracket, and the headlight mounting point is located on the top of the mounting plate.

[0016] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are provided at the left and right edges of the mounting plate and at the top edge of the mounting plate, respectively;

[0017] The mating plane is located between the reinforcing ribs on the left and right sides, the headlight mounting point is located below the reinforcing rib on the top, and when the mating plane is attached to the connecting plane, the fixing bracket is located between the reinforcing ribs on the left and right sides.

[0018] Furthermore, the headlight mounting point includes a mounting hole on the mounting plate and a welding nut fixed at the mounting hole.

[0019] Furthermore, the fixing bracket is provided with weight-reducing holes on the connecting plane, and / or the mounting bracket is provided with weight-reducing holes on the mating plane.

[0020] Compared with related technologies, this application has the following advantages:

[0021] (1) The mounting structure described in this application is mainly composed of a fixed bracket and a mounting bracket. A connecting plane is formed at one end of the fixed bracket, and a mating plane is provided on the mounting bracket. The mating plane can fit on the connecting plane so that the mounting bracket and the fixed bracket can be welded together. Before welding, the mounting bracket can also be adjusted in the vertical direction relative to the fixed bracket. Therefore, when the mounting structure for the headlight mounting is finalized, the headlight mounting position can be adjusted, which helps to ensure the positional accuracy of the headlight in the vehicle body and thus improves the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle body.

[0022] (2) The fixed bracket is L-shaped, which is simple in structure, easy to design and manufacture, and also facilitates the formation of the connecting plane and the connection arrangement of the mounting bracket at one end of the fixed bracket.

[0023] (3) A first flange is set on two opposite sides of the horizontal plate and a second flange is set on two opposite sides of the vertical plate. The first flange and the second flange on the same side are welded together. By setting flange structures on each side, the strength of the fixed bracket structure is increased, and the fixed bracket becomes a self-welding structure, which can further increase the rigidity of the fixed bracket and improve the position accuracy and reliability of the headlight installation.

[0024] (4) The mounting bracket adopts a mounting plate arranged along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle. It has a simple structure, is easy to design and manufacture, and is also conducive to the bonding and welding with the fixed bracket.

[0025] (5) By setting reinforcing ribs on the edge of the mounting plate, the structural strength of the mounting plate itself can be increased, the rigidity of the headlight mounting point can be increased, and the accuracy of the headlight mounting position can be improved. On the other hand, the reinforcing ribs on the left and right sides can also constrain the mounting bracket to adjust its position relative to the fixed bracket along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, which is conducive to ensuring the convenience of the mounting bracket position adjustment.

[0026] (6) The headlight mounting point adopts a combination of mounting holes and welding nuts, which is simple in structure, easy to form, convenient for headlight installation, and helps to ensure the reliability of headlight installation.

[0027] (7) Setting weight reduction holes on the fixed bracket and the mounting bracket helps to reduce the overall weight of the mounting structure and is conducive to achieving lightweight design of the vehicle body.

[0028] This application also proposes a vehicle in which the mounting structure described above is provided at the front end of the vehicle body.

[0029] Furthermore, the front end of the vehicle body is provided with a radiator upper crossbeam connected between the upper side beams of the left and right engine compartments, and the fixing bracket is fixed to the radiator upper crossbeam.

[0030] The upper side beam of the cabin is provided with a positioning bracket, and the end of the upper crossbeam of the radiator is positioned on the upper side beam of the cabin through the positioning bracket. The upper crossbeam of the radiator, the positioning bracket and the upper side beam of the cabin are fixed together by a first connector.

[0031] Furthermore, the positioning bracket is located at the top of the upper side beam of the cabin, and the positioning bracket includes a fixing plate and a positioning column disposed on the fixing plate;

[0032] The fixing plate is fixed to the upper side beam of the engine compartment, the positioning post is arranged along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, and the upper crossbeam of the radiator is provided with positioning holes for the positioning post to be inserted.

[0033] The first connecting member secures the radiator upper crossbeam, the fixing plate, and the engine compartment upper side beam together along the vertical direction of the vehicle.

[0034] By adopting the above-mentioned mounting structure, the vehicle described in this application can adjust the mounting position of the headlights when the mounting structure for the headlights is finalized, which helps to ensure the positional accuracy of the headlights and improves the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle body.

[0035] In addition, the fixed bracket is fixed on the upper crossbeam of the radiator, which facilitates the arrangement of the installation structure at the front of the vehicle body. The positioning bracket for positioning the upper crossbeam of the radiator is set on the upper side beam of the engine compartment. The upper crossbeam of the radiator, the positioning bracket and the upper side beam of the engine compartment are fixed together by the first connector. This can also ensure the relative positional accuracy between the radiator crossbeam and the upper side beam of the engine compartment, which helps to ensure the positional matching between the front-end components of the vehicle body.

[0036] In addition, the positioning bracket is located on the top of the upper beam of the engine compartment, and the first connecting piece is connected along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, which facilitates the connection operation of the upper beam of the radiator on the upper beam of the engine compartment. The positioning bracket is composed of a positioning plate and a positioning column set on the positioning plate. The structure is simple, easy to design and manufacture, and also facilitates the arrangement of the positioning bracket on the upper beam of the engine compartment. Attached Figure Description

In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0061] The present application will now be described in detail through exemplary embodiments. However, it should be understood that, without further description, elements, structures, and features in one embodiment may be advantageously incorporated into other embodiments.

[0062] An embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides an installation structure suitable for mounting headlights in a vehicle body. The installation structure of this embodiment, through its innovative design, helps to ensure the positional accuracy of the headlights in the vehicle body, thereby improving the appearance quality of the front end of the vehicle body.

[0063] In related technologies, headlights, as the main lighting equipment of a vehicle, are generally mounted on a bracket structure located at the front of the vehicle body. In traditional vehicle body structures, the bracket structure for mounting headlights at the front of the vehicle body is usually a Z-shaped or box-shaped structure. The bracket structure is arranged on the main body frame at the front of the vehicle body by means of screwing or welding, and mounting points are set on the bracket structure for mounting headlights.

[0064] Existing bracket structures in the shape of a "Z" or a box can achieve the installation of headlights at the front of the vehicle. However, since these bracket structures are generally stamped and formed as a single piece, they inevitably have shortcomings such as the inability to adjust the installation position of the headlights and difficulty in ensuring the accuracy of the headlight installation position. This can easily lead to gaps and surface differences between the headlights and surrounding parts after installation, which is not conducive to improving the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle.

[0065] In view of this, in order to overcome the shortcomings of related technologies, the installation structure of this embodiment combines... Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the figure, the overall design includes a structural body 6 located at the front of the vehicle body.

[0066] The structural body 6 includes a fixed bracket 61 fixed in the vehicle body and a mounting bracket 62 located at one end of the fixed bracket 61. The fixed bracket 61 has a connecting plane m at one end of the mounting bracket 62, and the mounting bracket 62 also has a mating plane n and a headlight mounting point located above the mating plane n.

[0067] The mating plane n in the mounting bracket 62 is attached to the connecting plane m in the fixed bracket 61, so that the mounting bracket 62 and the fixed bracket 61 are connected by welding. Based on this, the mounting bracket 62 can also be adjusted in position relative to the fixed bracket 61 in the vertical direction of the vehicle before welding.

[0068] Therefore, the structure body 6 used for headlight installation mainly consists of a fixed bracket 61 and a mounting bracket 62. A connecting plane m is formed at one end of the fixed bracket 61, and a mating plane n is provided on the mounting bracket 62. The mating plane n can fit on the connecting plane m, so that the mounting bracket 62 and the fixed bracket 61 can be welded together. Before welding, the mounting bracket 62 can also be adjusted vertically relative to the fixed bracket 61. Thus, this embodiment can adjust the headlight installation position when the installation structure for headlight installation is finalized, which helps to ensure the positional accuracy of the headlight in the vehicle body and can improve the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle body.

[0069] Based on the above overview, specifically, it is worth noting that, please refer to [the original text]. Figure 1 As shown, at the front end of the vehicle body, the aforementioned structural body 6 for mounting the headlights is generally mounted on the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator. The upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator connects between the upper side beams 1 of the engine compartment on the left and right sides. Since headlights are generally mounted on both sides of the front end of the vehicle body, structural bodies 6 are respectively mounted on the left and right ends near the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator. The structures of the structural bodies 6 at both ends are usually the same, so this embodiment will also use the structural body 6 at one end near the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator as an example for explanation.

[0070] Furthermore, in vehicles, the radiator upper crossbeam 2 is primarily used for mounting and securing the radiator located at the front of the vehicle body. In practice, a bracket structure for mounting the top of the radiator is typically installed on the radiator upper crossbeam 2, allowing the top of the radiator to be fixed to the vehicle body via bolts. Of course, besides mounting and securing the top of the radiator, the radiator upper crossbeam 2 can also provide a mounting base for other vehicle components, such as headlights, also located at the front of the vehicle body, enabling their mounting and securing within the vehicle body.

[0071] In this embodiment, the following continues... Figures 1 to 5 and combined Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some of the exemplary embodiments, the fixing bracket 61 is specifically L-shaped, and structurally, the fixing bracket 61 also includes connected horizontal plates 611 and vertical plates 612.

[0072] One end of the transverse plate 611 is fixed to the vehicle body, and can be fixed to the radiator upper crossbeam 2 by welding. A connecting plane m is formed on one side of the vertical plate 612.

[0073] At this point, it is understandable that making the fixed bracket 61 L-shaped has the advantages of simple structure and easy design and preparation. At the same time, it is obviously also conducive to the formation of the connecting plane m and the connection arrangement of the mounting bracket 62 at one end of the fixed bracket 61.

[0074] Furthermore, in specific implementation, it is still necessary to combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the transverse plate 611 in the fixed bracket 61 can generally be overlapped to the top surface of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator, and then welded to the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator. In this way, in this embodiment, when the structural body 6 is arranged on the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator, that is, at the front end of the vehicle body, the position of the structural body 6 can be adjusted in the front-rear direction and the left-right direction of the vehicle before the structural body 6 is fixed, thereby helping to further ensure the positional accuracy of the headlight installation.

[0075] Continue as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, first flanges 613 may be provided on the left and right sides of the horizontal plate 611, and second flanges 614 may be provided on the left and right sides of the vertical plate 612. Furthermore, the first flanges 613 on each side are welded together with the second flanges 614 on the same side.

[0076] In this way, by setting the first flange 613 on both opposite sides of the horizontal plate 611 and the second flange 614 on both opposite sides of the vertical plate 612, and welding the first flange 613 and the second flange 614 on the same side together, this embodiment can increase the structural strength of the fixed bracket 61 by setting the flange structure on each side, and at the same time make the fixed bracket 61 a self-welding structure, thereby further increasing the rigidity of the fixed bracket 61 and improving the positional accuracy and reliability of the headlight installation.

[0077] Continue by Figures 1 to 5 and combined Figure 8 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the mounting bracket 62 may include, for example, a mounting plate 621 arranged along the vertical direction of the vehicle, and the mounting plate 621 has a mating plane n on the side facing the fixed bracket 61, and the aforementioned headlight mounting point is located on the top of the mounting plate 621.

[0078] It is understandable that the mounting plate 621, which is arranged along the vertical direction of the vehicle, is simple in structure and easy to design and manufacture. At the same time, it is obviously beneficial to the bonding and welding between the mounting bracket 62 and the fixed bracket 61.

[0079] Based on the fact that the mounting bracket 62 is composed of the mounting plate 621, in this embodiment, in some exemplary embodiments, reference is still made to Figure 8 As shown, reinforcing ribs 623 can be provided, for example, at the left and right edges of the mounting plate 621 and at the top edge of the mounting plate 621.

[0080] The aforementioned reinforcing ribs 623 can be formed by stamping during the preparation of the mounting plate 621, and the aforementioned mating plane n is located between the left and right reinforcing ribs 623. The aforementioned headlight mounting point is located below the top reinforcing rib 623. Meanwhile, when the mating plane n in the mounting bracket 62 is attached to the connecting plane m in the fixed bracket 61, see... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the fixed bracket 61 is located between the reinforcing ribs 623 on the left and right sides of the mounting plate 621.

[0081] Understandably, by setting reinforcing ribs 623 on the edge of the mounting plate 621, on the one hand, it can increase the structural strength of the mounting plate 621 itself and increase the rigidity of the headlight mounting point, so as to improve the accuracy of the headlight mounting position. On the other hand, it can obviously use the reinforcing ribs 623 on the left and right sides to constrain the mounting bracket 62 to adjust its position relative to the fixed bracket 61 in the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, thereby helping to ensure the convenience of adjusting the position of the mounting bracket 62.

[0082] Of course, it is worth noting that since there are reinforcing ribs 623 on the left and right edges of the mounting plate 621 and on the top edge of the mounting plate 621, but not on the bottom edge of the mounting plate 621, when the position of the mounting bracket 62 is adjusted relative to the fixed bracket 61, the mounting bracket 62 can have a larger adjustment range in the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, which is conducive to ensuring the adjustment effect of the headlight mounting position.

[0083] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the aforementioned headlight mounting point may include, for example, a mounting through-hole 622 provided on the mounting plate 621, and a welding nut 63 fixed at the mounting through-hole 622.

[0084] At this point, the headlight mounting point adopts a combination of mounting through hole 622 and welding nut 63, which also has the advantages of simple structure and easy molding, and at the same time facilitates the installation operation of the headlight and helps to ensure the reliability of the headlight installation.

[0085] Furthermore, in some exemplary embodiments, the fixed bracket 61 may also have weight-reduction holes on the connecting plane m, and the mounting bracket 62 may have weight-reduction holes on the mating plane n. Thus, by providing weight-reduction holes on the fixed bracket 61 and the mounting bracket 62 respectively, it is helpful to reduce the overall weight of the mounting structure, thereby facilitating the lightweight design of the vehicle body.

[0086] For ease of description, the weight-reducing hole on the fixed bracket 61 can be referred to as the first weight-reducing hole 615, and the weight-reducing hole on the mounting bracket 62 can be referred to as the second weight-reducing hole 624. The first weight-reducing hole 615 and the second weight-reducing hole 624 can generally be described as follows: Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 As shown, it uses elongated holes, and then combines them with... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, preferably, after the mounting bracket 62 is welded and fixed to the fixed bracket 61, the first weight reduction hole 615 and the second weight reduction hole 624 can also be interconnected, which facilitates the flow of electrophoretic liquid during the car body electrophoresis.

[0087] It is worth noting that, regarding the installation structure of this embodiment, based on the above exemplary implementations, in specific implementation, as a preferred embodiment, it is still based on... Figures 1 to 8 As shown, it may include, for example, a structural body 6 located at the front end of the vehicle body, the structural body 6 including a fixed bracket 61 fixed in the vehicle body, and a mounting bracket 62 located at one end of the fixed bracket 61.

[0088] The fixed bracket 61 has a connecting plane m at one end of the mounting bracket 62. The mounting bracket 62 has a mating plane n and a headlight mounting point located above the mating plane n. The mating plane n fits onto the connecting plane m, allowing the mounting bracket 62 and the fixed bracket 61 to be connected by welding. Before welding, the mounting bracket 62 can be adjusted in position relative to the fixed bracket 61 along the vertical direction of the vehicle.

[0089] The fixed bracket 61 is L-shaped and includes a connected horizontal plate 611 and a vertical plate 612. A first flange 613 is provided on the left and right sides of the horizontal plate 611, and a second flange 614 is provided on the left and right sides of the vertical plate 612. The first flange 613 on each side and the second flange 614 on the same side are welded together, so that the fixed bracket 61 is a self-welding structure.

[0090] In addition, the mounting bracket 62 includes a mounting plate 621 arranged along the vertical direction of the vehicle. Reinforcing ribs 623 are provided at the left and right edges and the top edge of the mounting plate 621. The headlight mounting point includes a mounting hole 622 provided on the mounting plate 621 and a welding nut 63 fixed at the mounting hole 622.

[0091] In the preferred embodiment of the above installation structure, the specific settings and arrangements of the fixed bracket 61, the mounting bracket 62, and the headlight mounting point, etc., can still be referred to the descriptions in the above exemplary embodiments. Furthermore, in this preferred embodiment, the beneficial effects brought about by the design of the fixed bracket 61, the mounting bracket 62, and the headlight mounting point, etc., can also be referred to the descriptions in the above exemplary embodiments.

[0092] The mounting structure of this embodiment adopts the above design. By allowing the fixed bracket 61 and mounting bracket 62 in the headlight mounting structure to adjust their relative positions before welding, the mounting position of the headlight can be adjusted when the mounting structure for headlight mounting is finalized. This helps to ensure the positional accuracy of the headlight in the vehicle body and improves the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle body.

[0093] An embodiment of the second aspect of this application provides a vehicle in which a mounting structure as described in the first aspect embodiment is provided at the front end of the vehicle body, so that the headlights can be mounted and arranged at the front end of the vehicle body through the mounting structure.

[0094] As mentioned in the first aspect of the embodiment above, in some exemplary embodiments, the front end of the vehicle body is provided with a radiator upper crossbeam 2 connected between the upper side beams 1 of the left and right engine compartments, and the fixing bracket 61 in the above mounting structure can be fixed on the radiator upper crossbeam 2.

[0095] In addition, it is still by Figure 1 , Figure 2 and continue to combine Figures 9 to 13 As shown, based on the arrangement of the above-mentioned installation structure on the radiator upper beam 2 and the connection arrangement of the radiator upper beam 2 between the upper side beams 1 of the front engine compartment on both sides, in some exemplary embodiments, positioning brackets 4 can be provided on the upper side beams 1 of the engine compartment on both sides, and each end of the radiator upper beam 2 is positioned on the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment by the corresponding positioning brackets 4, and the radiator upper beam 2, the positioning brackets 4 and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment are also fixed together by the first connector 31.

[0096] At this point, it is understandable that by fixing the fixed bracket 61 to the radiator upper crossbeam 2, it is convenient to arrange the installation structure at the front of the vehicle body. Furthermore, by setting the positioning bracket 4 on the engine compartment upper side beam 1 for positioning the radiator upper crossbeam 2, and by fixing the radiator upper crossbeam 2, the positioning bracket 4, and the engine compartment upper side beam 1 together through the first connector 61, it is also possible to ensure the relative positional accuracy between the radiator crossbeam 2 and the engine compartment upper side beam 1 when they are connected. This helps to ensure the positional matching between the front-end components of the vehicle body, and also achieves the effect of ensuring the appearance quality of the front of the vehicle body.

[0097] Specifically, it should be noted that since the connection method between the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator and the upper side beam 1 of each side of the engine compartment is generally the same, this embodiment will also take the connection method between the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator and the upper side beam 1 of one side of the engine compartment as an example for explanation.

[0098] And continue to combine Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,as well as Figure 9 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, preferably, the positioning bracket 4 is generally located at the top of the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, while the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator is also connected to the top of the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, and the first connecting member 31 specifically connects the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator, the positioning bracket 4 and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment together along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle.

[0099] At this time, by positioning the positioning bracket 4 on the top of the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, connecting the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator to the top of the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, and connecting the first connecting piece 31 along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, it is obvious that when setting the positioning bracket 4 on the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment and connecting the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator to the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, it is convenient to set the positioning bracket 4 on the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment and to connect the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator to the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment.

[0100] Still by Figure 9 and continue as Figure 11 and Figure 13As shown in this embodiment, in some exemplary implementations, the positioning bracket 4 may include, for example, a fixing plate 41 and a positioning post 42 disposed on the fixing plate 41.

[0101] The fixing plate 41 is fixed to the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, the positioning post 42 is arranged along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, the positioning hole 201 for the positioning post 42 to be inserted is provided on the upper cross beam 2 of the radiator, and the first connecting member 31 also specifically connects the upper cross beam 2 of the radiator, the fixing plate 41 and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment together.

[0102] Thus, by using a fixed plate 41 and a positioning column 42 on the fixed plate 41 to form the positioning bracket 4, it has the characteristics of simple structure and easy design and manufacturing. At the same time, it can obviously facilitate the arrangement of the positioning bracket 4 on the upper side beam 1 of the cabin.

[0103] Based on the positioning bracket 4 using a fixing plate 41 and a positioning post 42 located on the fixing plate 41, the following continues... Figures 9 to 11 and combined Figure 13 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments of this embodiment, the aforementioned fixing plate 41 can be fixed to the upper side beam 1 of the cabin by a plurality of fixing bolts 5, wherein at least some of the fixing bolts 5 are located between the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator and the fixing plate 41, and corresponding to the portion of fixing bolts 5 located between the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator and the fixing plate 41, a clearance hole 202 for avoiding the portion of fixing bolts 5 is also provided on the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator.

[0104] At this point, by fixing the fixing plate 41 to the upper beam 1 of the cabin with fixing bolts 5, it can be understood that it also has the characteristics of simple structure and easy operation, and it is also conducive to the replacement of the adapter positioning bracket 4.

[0105] When some of the fixing bolts 5 are located between the upper beam 2 of the radiator and the fixing plate 41, by providing avoidance holes 202 on the upper beam 2 of the radiator to avoid the fixing bolts 5, this embodiment can obviously also avoid a large gap between the upper beam 2 of the radiator and the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle caused by the fixing bolts 5 (e.g., the protruding head of the fixing bolts 5). This can achieve a close fit design between the upper beam 2 of the radiator and the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle, which helps to improve the support rigidity of the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle on the upper beam 2 of the radiator, and can improve the stability of the connection arrangement of the upper beam 2 of the radiator on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle.

[0106] In specific implementation, it is worth noting that, in order to fix the fixing plate 41 in the positioning bracket 4 on the upper side beam 1 of the cabin, a fixing hole 102 can be formed on the upper side beam 1 of the cabin, for example. The fixing hole 102 is a threaded hole. After the fixing bolt 5 passes through the fixing plate 41, it can be screwed and fixed in the fixing hole 102.

[0107] In addition, as an example, the fixing bolts 5 used for fixing the fixing plate 41 can be two bolts respectively arranged near both ends of the fixing plate 41, and one of the fixing bolts 5 can be located between the upper beam 2 of the radiator and the fixing plate 41, and thus corresponding to the fixing bolt 5, a clearance hole 202 is provided on the upper beam 2 of the radiator.

[0108] Furthermore, in specific implementation, to facilitate the installation and fixation of the fixing plate 41 on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle, preferably, for example, a positioning operation hole 402 can be provided on the fixing plate 41, and correspondingly, a positioning mating hole 104 can be provided on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle. When installing the fixing plate 41 on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle, a positioning tool that passes through both the positioning operation hole 402 and the corresponding positioning mating hole 104 can be used to pre-position the fixing plate 41 on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle, thereby achieving the effect of facilitating the installation and operation of the fixing plate 41.

[0109] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in addition to the fixing hole 102 for installing the positioning bracket 4, a threaded connection hole 101 is also provided on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle. At the same time, a connection through hole 401 is provided on the fixing plate 41. When the first connecting member 31 is connected, it passes through the connection through hole 401 on the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator and the fixing plate 41, and is screwed into the threaded connection hole 101 on the upper side beam 1 of the nacelle.

[0110] In this embodiment, it is worth noting that the positioning post 42 can be a separate structure from the fixing plate 41, and the positioning post 42 can be fixed to the fixing plate 41 by means of screwing, interference fit, welding or riveting.

[0111] Meanwhile, to facilitate the installation of the positioning post 42 on the fixing plate 41, the positioning post 42 may have a "head" located on one side of the fixing plate 41, for example, like a bolt. Corresponding to the "head" on the positioning post 42, a hollow hole 103 may also be provided on the upper side beam 1 of the cabin to accommodate the "head" of the positioning post 42, thereby making the fixing plate 41 and the upper side beam 1 of the cabin fit together perfectly, ensuring the reliability of the installation and fixing of the fixing plate 41 on the upper side beam 1 of the cabin.

[0112] In this embodiment, it is still by Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, preferably, the positioning bracket 4 is also arranged near the front end of the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment. At the same time, a connecting bracket 11 is also provided at the end of the front end of the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment. Based on the arrangement of the connecting bracket 11, the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator is also fixedly connected to the connecting bracket 11 by a second connecting member 32 arranged along the vertical direction of the whole vehicle.

[0113] At this time, by setting a connecting bracket 11 at the front end of the upper beam 1 of the engine compartment, and by fixing the upper beam 2 of the radiator and the connecting bracket 11 together through the second connecting member 32, it can be understood that, in conjunction with the first connecting member 31, it can increase the reliability of the connection arrangement of the upper beam 2 of the radiator on the upper beam 1 of the engine compartment, and help improve the stability of the radiator arrangement at the front of the vehicle body.

[0114] In this embodiment, in some exemplary implementations, the aforementioned first connector 31 may be, for example, a plurality of connectors spaced apart along the length of the upper beam 2 of the radiator, and referencing Figure 9 , Figure 12 as well as Figure 13 As shown, each of the first connectors 31 and the second connectors 32 are also arranged in a staggered manner relative to the center line of the upper beam 2 of the radiator.

[0115] Specifically, the centerline of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator is the centerline of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator in the front-rear direction of the vehicle. Figure 12 and Figure 13 Taking the cross-sectional shape of the upper beam 2 of the radiator as an example, it is also the center line in the width direction of the upper beam 2 of the radiator.

[0116] By arranging multiple first connectors 31 at intervals, and by having each connector 3 including the first connector 31 and the second connector 32 arranged in a staggered manner relative to the center line of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator, the deformation resistance of the end position where the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator is connected to the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment can be improved. This can effectively prevent deformation at the connection position between the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment during a vehicle collision, reduce the deformation tendency, and improve the structural stability of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator.

[0117] In this embodiment, in some exemplary implementations, the first connector 31 and the second connector 32 may both be made of connecting bolts. Using connecting bolts for each connector 3 has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation, and low cost. It also obviously enables the detachable design of the radiator's upper beam 2, facilitating later maintenance and repair.

[0118] In addition, see also Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the radiator upper crossbeam 2 of this embodiment can be, for example, a tube beam. Based on this, connecting sleeves corresponding to each connecting member 3 can also be provided in the radiator upper crossbeam 2. Each connecting member 3 is then inserted into the corresponding connecting sleeve, which can improve the overall rigidity of the connection point between the radiator upper crossbeam 2 and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, thereby helping to improve the stability of the connection between the radiator upper crossbeam 2 and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment.

[0119] In this embodiment, the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator is still based on a tubular beam. In some exemplary embodiments, preferably, the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator can be a hot-expansion tube. In this way, using a hot-expansion tube for the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator facilitates the cross-sectional design and forming of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator, and also helps to ensure the structural performance of the upper crossbeam 2 of the radiator.

[0120] In this embodiment, by adopting the above-described mounting structure, the headlight mounting position can be adjusted when the structural body 6 for headlight mounting is finalized, which helps to ensure the positional accuracy of the headlight mounting. At the same time, by setting the positioning bracket 4 on the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment, the relative positional accuracy between the upper cross beam 2 of the radiator and the upper side beam 1 of the engine compartment can also be ensured, which helps to ensure the positional matching between the front-end components of the vehicle body, thereby improving the appearance quality of the front end of the vehicle body.

[0121] The above descriptions are merely some embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. The technical features or structures in the foregoing different embodiments can be arbitrarily combined to form other specific technical solutions as needed. For those skilled in the art, this application can have various modifications and variations.
