Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive wheel cover technology, and more specifically, to an impact-resistant lightweight front wheel cover. Background Technology
[0002] Wheel covers are a very important part of automotive components. They are installed on the body panels above the wheels. Wheel covers not only decorate the wheels, but also prevent stones and mud from splashing onto the car body and damaging the body panels. They also have a sound-absorbing and noise-reducing function.
[0003] In related technologies, to address the problem that while high-strength materials improve the protective capabilities and lifespan of existing car front wheel covers, they also generate significant noise when struck by stones. This noise undoubtedly bothers the driver and passengers. Patent CN221138332U provides a car front wheel cover that incorporates a noise-reducing buffer structure on the front wheel cover itself to absorb stone impacts. This buffer structure, combined with sound-absorbing and sound-insulating structures within the buffer structure, effectively prevents significant stone impact noise from the front wheel cover, thus avoiding noise disturbance to the driver.
[0004] Existing front wheel covers tend to deform after prolonged use, and their effectiveness in damping and reducing noise from the tires is poor. They also fail to block splashed mud during driving, making the car body easily dirty and inconvenient to clean. Therefore, we propose an impact-resistant, lightweight front wheel cover. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides an impact-resistant lightweight front wheel cover, which aims to improve the technical problems of front wheel covers deforming after long-term use, poor shock absorption and noise reduction for car tires, and difficulty in blocking splashed mud during car driving, making the car body easily dirty and inconvenient to clean.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:
[0007] This utility model provides an impact-resistant lightweight front wheel cover, comprising: an arc-shaped wheel cover shell, a mounting sleeve, and a mounting bracket. The mounting sleeve is fixedly installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped wheel cover shell, and a reinforcing edge is limited and installed on the inner side of the mounting sleeve. A connecting plate is provided between the reinforcing edges. A limiting post is fixedly installed inside the mounting sleeve. A second mating hole that mates with the limiting post is provided on the reinforcing edge. Sound-absorbing cotton is provided inside the arc-shaped wheel cover shell.
[0008] Preferably, a mounting plate is fixedly installed on the top of the arc-shaped wheel cover, and the mounting plate is provided with mounting holes.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped wheel cover body can be installed through the mounting plate, and the mounting plate can be easily fixed through the mounting holes, thus further limiting the movement during the installation process of this device.
[0010] Preferably, a sliding plate that mates with the mounting sleeve is fixedly installed at the outer end of the reinforcing edge, and the sliding plate is provided with a first mating hole corresponding to the limiting post.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding plate can be easily slid into the interior of the mounting sleeve, and the first mating hole can be easily matched with the limiting post, thereby facilitating the installation of the reinforcing edge.
[0012] Preferably, a rain shield is fixedly installed at the bottom of the arc-shaped wheel cover, and a drainage groove is provided on the rain shield.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the rain shield can block the rainwater splashed by the rotating tires, and the drainage channel can guide the rainwater, making it more convenient to use.
[0014] Preferably, the sliding plate and the mounting sleeve are fixed together by a fixing knob, and the sliding plate is provided with a fixing hole that cooperates with the fixing knob.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting sleeve and the sliding plate can be fixed by fixing the knob, so that the reinforcing edge and the connecting plate can be installed on the outside of the arc-shaped wheel cover.
[0016] Preferably, a mounting bracket is fixedly installed inside the arc-shaped wheel cover, the sound-absorbing cotton is fixedly installed inside the mounting bracket, and a slot that mates with the mounting bracket is provided inside the arc-shaped wheel cover.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the sound-absorbing cotton can further impact the arc-shaped wheel cover, and can absorb the noise generated by the tire, thus reducing noise during use.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. This application, through the mutual cooperation of a reinforcing edge, a connecting plate, a sliding plate, and a limiting post, utilizes a sliding plate installed on the outer side of the reinforcing edge. The sliding plate can be slidably installed to the inner side of the mounting sleeve, so that the first mating hole on the sliding plate and the second mating hole on the reinforcing edge can be installed to the inner side of the limiting post. The mounting sleeve and the sliding plate can be limited and fixed by a fixing knob, thereby enabling the reinforcing edge and the connecting plate to be installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped wheel cover. The reinforcing edge can prevent the arc-shaped wheel cover from deforming under long-term use.
[0020] 2. This application utilizes a combination of a rain shield, a drainage channel, sound-absorbing cotton, and a mounting bracket. The rain shield protects the tire from splashing rainwater during rotation, the drainage channel guides the rainwater, making it more convenient to use, and the cleaning water drips off during washing. The mounting bracket can be installed inside the slot, and the sound-absorbing cotton further absorbs the impact of the curved wheel cover and absorbs the noise generated by the tire, thus reducing noise during use.

A drainage groove 104 is provided on the rain shield 103.
[0030] It should be noted that the mounting sleeve 2 and the sliding plate 204 can be fixed by fixing the knob 201, so that the reinforcing edge 202 and the connecting plate 203 can be installed on the outside of the arc-shaped wheel cover 1. The reinforcing edge 202 can be used to prevent the arc-shaped wheel cover 1 from deforming under long-term use.
[0031] Reference Figures 2-4Furthermore, the sliding plate 204 and the mounting sleeve 2 are fixedly positioned by a fixing knob 201.

The sliding plate 204 can be slidably installed on the inner side of the mounting sleeve 2, so that the first mating hole 205 on the sliding plate 204 and the second mating hole 208 on the reinforcing edge 202 can be installed on the inner side of the limiting post 206. The fixing knob 201 can limit and fix the mounting sleeve 2 and the sliding plate 204, thereby allowing the reinforcing edge 202 and the connecting plate 203 to be installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped wheel cover 1. The reinforced edge 202 can prevent the arc-shaped wheel cover 1 from deforming under long-term use. The rain shield 103 can block the rainwater splashed by the tire during rotation. The drainage channel 104 can guide the rainwater, making it more convenient to use. During the cleaning process, the cleaning water can drip off. The mounting bracket 3 can be installed on the inside of the empty groove 302. The sound-absorbing cotton 301 can further reduce the impact of the arc-shaped wheel cover 1 and absorb the noise generated by the tire, thus reducing noise during use.
[0034] It should be noted that the specific model and specifications of the motor need to be selected and determined based on the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail here.
