Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive generator technology, and in particular to an installation structure for an automotive generator. Background Technology
[0002] The car's alternator is an important component of the car's electrical system. It mainly consists of four parts: rotor, stator, rectifier, and end cover. Its working principle is based on the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction. It generates electrical energy through the magnetic field generated by the rotor's rotation and the relative motion of the stator windings. The main functions of the alternator are to charge the battery and provide power to the various electrical devices in the car.
[0003] Traditional car alternator installation methods typically use bolts and screws in conjunction with the alternator's built-in connection structure to fix it to the vehicle frame. However, during long-term use, the existing installation structure is prone to corrosion or wear at the connection points due to oxidation of metal parts and erosion from external rainwater, which affects the connection strength and installation stability, posing certain safety hazards.
[0004] To address the existing problems, there is a need to provide an installation structure for a car generator with protective functions. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the disadvantage of exposed connection parts, this utility model provides an installation structure for an automotive generator.
[0006] The technical implementation scheme of this utility model is as follows: an installation structure for an automotive generator, comprising an automotive generator, mounting blocks, protective frames, sliding plates, connecting blocks, limiting plates, sliding rods, wedge blocks, and springs. Mounting blocks are symmetrically mounted on the automotive generator, and protective frames are snapped onto each of the two mounting blocks. Sliding grooves are symmetrically opened inside each of the two protective frames, and sliding plates are slidably connected between the two sliding grooves inside the two protective frames. Connecting blocks are symmetrically connected to the bottom of each of the two sliding plates, and limiting plates are snapped between every two adjacent connecting blocks. Sliding rods are symmetrically slidably connected to the two protective frames, and wedge blocks are connected to the inner end of each sliding rod. Each wedge block contacts and engages with a sliding plate at a corresponding position, and a spring is connected between each wedge block and the corresponding protective frame.
[0007] Optionally, it also includes a sealing plate, a rotating shaft, a limiting block, a torsion spring, and a protective pad. Both protective frames have slots inside, and a sealing plate is engaged in each slot. The outer sides of both protective frames are symmetrically connected to rotating shafts. Each rotating shaft is connected to a limiting block, and each limiting block contacts and engages with the sealing plate at the corresponding position. A torsion spring is connected between each rotating shaft and the protective frame at the corresponding position, and a protective pad is symmetrically connected to each limiting block.
[0008] Optionally, it also includes a first shock-absorbing pad, with the first shock-absorbing pad connected to both sliding plates, and each first shock-absorbing pad contacting and engaging with the mounting block at the corresponding position.
[0009] Optionally, it also includes a second shock-absorbing pad, with each protective frame connected to a second shock-absorbing pad.
[0010] Optionally, it also includes connecting rods, with each pair of adjacent sliding rods on the left and right sides connected to a connecting rod.
[0011] Optionally, it also includes a sealing ring, with a sealing ring connected to each sliding rod.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. By setting a new installation structure with a protective frame and a sliding limit mechanism, the connection strength is improved, while the durability and rust prevention performance of the equipment in complex environments are enhanced. Specifically, the structure uses a snap-fit protective frame to cooperate with the mounting block on the generator, and uses a linkage limit system composed of a sliding plate, wedge block, spring and connecting rod to realize the quick installation and stable fixing of screws. Operators can replace or tighten screws without frequently disassembling the overall structure, which significantly improves maintenance efficiency and installation convenience.
[0013] 2. This device can also form a good seal inside the protective frame after installation through components such as sealing plates, rotating shafts, limit blocks, torsion springs and protective pads, preventing external moisture and dust from entering and further extending the service life of the equipment. At the same time, the installation of shock-absorbing pads effectively reduces the impact of vibrations generated during vehicle operation on the generator connection structure, improving the stability and reliability of the overall system.

[0024] Example: An installation structure for an automotive generator, such as... Figures 1-8As shown, the assembly includes an automotive generator 1, mounting blocks 2, protective frames 3, sliding plates 4, connecting blocks 5, limiting plates 6, sliding rods 7, wedge blocks 8, springs 9, sealing plates 11, rotating shafts 12, limiting blocks 13, torsion springs 14, protective pads 15, first shock-absorbing pads 16, second shock-absorbing pads 17, connecting rods 18, and sealing rings 19. Mounting blocks 2 are symmetrically mounted on the automotive generator 1 for mounting the generator. Protective frames 3 are snapped onto both mounting blocks 2 to protect the external connection structure of the generator and prevent dust, moisture, and other contaminants from entering. They also serve as mounting platforms for other functional components. The interiors of both protective frames 3 are symmetrically provided with sliding grooves 301. Sliding plates 4 are slidably connected between the two internal sliding grooves 301, serving as the basic structure for screw installation and limiting mechanisms. They work with wedge blocks 8 to achieve locking and releasing functions. Connecting blocks 5 are symmetrically connected to the bottom of each sliding plate 4, and a limiting plate 6 is engaged between every two adjacent connecting blocks 5 to limit and fix the screw head, preventing loosening or detachment. Sliding rods 7 are symmetrically slidably connected to the front and back of each protective frame 3, with a wedge block 8 connected to the inner end of each rod 7. Each wedge block 8 contacts and engages with the corresponding sliding plate 4, locking or releasing the sliding plate 4 as the sliding rod 7 moves. This is the core component of the limiting mechanism. Each wedge-shaped block 8 is connected to a corresponding protective frame 3 by a spring 9. Both protective frames 3 have slots 10 inside, each slot 10 housing a sealing plate 11 to seal the opening of the protective frame 3, preventing dust and rainwater from entering and improving the overall protection level. The outer surfaces of both protective frames 3 are symmetrically connected to rotating shafts 12, each shaft 12 connected to a limit block 13. Each limit block 13 contacts and engages with the corresponding sealing plate 11, and by rotating, it presses or releases the sealing plate 11, thus fixing or releasing it. Each rotating shaft 12 is connected to a corresponding protective frame 3 by a torsion spring 14, and each limit block 13 has a torsion spring 14. The system is equipped with a protective pad 15 and two sliding plates 4, each with a first shock-absorbing pad 16. Each first shock-absorbing pad 16 contacts and engages with the corresponding mounting block 2 to absorb vibration energy and prevent structural loosening caused by vibrations generated during vehicle operation. Each protective frame 3 is equipped with a second shock-absorbing pad 17 to reduce direct collision between the protective frame 2 and the generator body and improve the shock absorption effect. Each pair of adjacent sliding rods 7 is equipped with a connecting rod 18 to connect adjacent sliding rods 7 and make them move synchronously, improving the consistency and stability of operation. Each sliding rod 7 is equipped with a sealing ring 19 to enhance the sealing performance between the sliding rod and the protective frame 3 and prevent dust and moisture from seeping into the interior.
[0025] When installing the car generator 1, the operator first symmetrically snaps the two protective frames 3 onto the mounting blocks 2 on both sides of the generator to complete the initial positioning. Then, the two rotating shafts 12 on the outer side of the protective frames 3 are rotated, causing the limiting blocks 13 to rotate synchronously. During this process, the torsion spring 14 deforms and stores elastic potential energy. After the limiting blocks 13 rotate, they will no longer limit the sealing plate 11. At this time, the sealing plate 11 can be removed from the slot 10. After removing the sealing plate 11, the operator stops rotating the rotating shafts 12. Under the reset action of the torsion spring 14, the rotating shafts 12 and the limiting blocks 13 return to their initial positions. Starting from the initial position, pull the two connecting rods 18 on the same side. The connecting rods 18 drive the sliding rod 7 and the wedge block 8 to move outward, compressing the spring 9. As the wedge block 8 disengages from the contact surface of the sliding plate 4, the sliding plate 4 loses its limit and slides down the slide groove 301 to the bottom under its own gravity. At this time, release the connecting rods 18, and the spring 9 pushes the sliding rod 7, the wedge block 8, and the connecting rods 18 to reset. The sliding plate 4 is then re-limited and fixed. Subsequently, the limiting plate 6 can be removed to leave space for subsequent screw installation. The operator inserts the screws one by one through the middle of the limiting plate 6, ensuring that the screw heads are tightly fitted to the bottom of the sliding plate 4. After fitting the screw together, push the limiting plate 6 back to its original position so that it fits tightly against the screw head and limits and fixes the screw. Then push the sliding plate 4 upward. As the sliding plate 4 moves within the slide groove 301, it will squeeze the wedge block 8, causing the sliding rod 7 and connecting rod 18 to move outward. The spring 9 is compressed again. When the sliding plate 4 reaches the predetermined position, stop pushing. The spring 9 pushes the sliding rod 7, wedge block 8 and connecting rod 18 back to their original positions. The wedge block 8 fits the sliding plate 4 again, restoring its limiting function, thus completing the secure installation of the screw. Repeat the above steps to complete the screw installation within the other side of the protective frame 3. After installation, the operator moves the car generator 1 to the designated installation position and inserts a tool through the through hole on the limit plate 6, then tightens the screw head to firmly connect it to the corresponding installation part. Finally, to achieve the sealing function of the protective frame 3, the rotating shaft 12 is rotated again to compress the torsion spring 14, inserting the sealing plate 11 into the protective frame 3 and engaging with the slot 10. After releasing the rotating shaft 12, the limit block 13 is reset under the action of the torsion spring 14, completing the limiting and fixing of the sealing plate 11, and achieving the sealing protection of the entire protective structure. At this point, the installation process of the car generator 1 is complete.
