Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and more specifically, to a roof rack for storing a spare tire. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing technology, for traditional gasoline-powered passenger cars, the spare tire is usually placed in the lower layer of the trunk, while for traditional gasoline-powered SUVs, the spare tire is mostly placed in a special spare tire cover on the outside of the rear of the car.

[0003] As more and more people take road trips, they also install roof boxes on their cars. However, due to the increasing popularity of new energy vehicles, most of them do not come with a spare tire. Therefore, for people who take long road trips, it is necessary to consider the placement of the spare tire. Designing a roof box that can hold a spare tire has become our design direction. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art. Its structure is reasonably designed, which can realize the placement and positioning of the spare tire and has a good supporting function.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A roof rack for storing a spare tire includes a base and a cover that fits the base. The base has a recess for accommodating the spare tire. Several reinforcing ribs are provided on the base at the bottom of the recess, and the top surface of each reinforcing rib is flush with the bottom surface of the recess.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the top cover can be fixed to the base, the recessed groove is used to place the spare tire, and the setting of the reinforcing rib can support the spare tire placed in the recessed groove. The spare tire will directly abut against the groove and the reinforcing rib, which can also play a role in positioning the spare tire. The setting of multiple reinforcing ribs can increase the contact area with the spare tire and play a better frictional positioning role.

[0008] Preferably, a recessed strip is formed on the back of the base corresponding to the position of each reinforcing rib, and a support strip is fixedly embedded in each recessed strip.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the support bar is made of metal, specifically iron or steel, which can further support the spare tire placed in the base.

[0010] Preferably, a protruding post is provided on one of the reinforcing ribs at the center position of the recessed groove, a recessed hole is formed on one of the recessed strips at the position of the protruding post, a nut is fixed on one of the support strips in the recessed hole, the top of the protruding post can be pierced or the protruding post can be hollow, and a screw member adapted to the nut is also included. The screw member passes through the spare tire and the protruding post and is threadedly connected to the nut to position the spare tire on the base.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, since the support strip is made of metal, the nut can be directly welded to the corresponding support strip, and the nut is located in the recessed hole. The metal strip can be fixedly connected to the recessed strip or reinforcing rib using fasteners. Furthermore, in the actual manufacturing process, the base, reinforcing rib, recessed strip, protrusion, and recessed hole are all directly injection molded as a single unit. During actual use, the customer can push through the top of the protrusion, and then connect it to the nut via a threaded connection through the spare tire. The threaded connection specifically includes a positioning plate and a screw that passes through the positioning plate. During installation, first place the spare tire in the recessed groove, then place the positioning plate at the corresponding position in the middle of the spare tire (the spare tire will have a corresponding mounting hole in the middle). Next, pass the screw through the spare tire, positioning plate, and protrusion, and tighten it with the nut threadedly, thus achieving a more stable positioning of the spare tire.

[0012] Preferably, the base is provided with two support blocks, the recessed groove is formed on the two support blocks, the reinforcing rib and the support blocks are both arranged along the length direction of the base, and the reinforcing rib is arranged between the two support blocks.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, and by setting a support block, the recessed groove is formed on the support block. The support block can provide further support for the spare tire. Furthermore, the reinforcing ribs are set along the length of the base, making the reinforcing ribs longer. The matching recessed strips and support strips also have longer lengths, resulting in better support.

[0014] Preferably, two partitions are provided on the base at intervals, with a spare tire placement area between the two partitions and a luggage placement area formed between the two partitions and the base. Reinforcing ribs extend from the spare tire placement area to the luggage placement areas on both sides.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the base is divided into a spare tire storage area and two luggage storage areas by the partition platform, which further increases the internal space of the base, making it more practical. The reinforcing ribs can also support the luggage storage areas on both sides.

[0016] Preferably, multiple positioning buckles are fixedly installed on the reinforcing rib, and the positioning buckles are located on both sides of the spare tire placement area.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning buckle can be set on the reinforcing rib located at the partition. The positioning buckle can be fixed to the reinforcing rib with screws. After the spare tire is placed and positioned, the positioning buckle on both sides of the spare tire placement area can be passed through the rope to achieve further positioning of the spare tire, effectively preventing the spare tire from shifting position when the vehicle accelerates or brakes suddenly.
