Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to, but is not limited to, the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to an installation assembly and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Shock absorbers are typically mounted on the vehicle body or chassis structure via mounting brackets, affecting the vehicle's vibration damping and driving stability. In related technologies, shock absorber mounting brackets are thinned to varying degrees, sometimes excessively, reducing their strength and making them prone to localized metal fatigue. Over long-term use, this can lead to cracks or loosening of connections, resulting in lower dynamic stiffness. Utility Model Content

[0003] The mounting assembly and vehicle provided in this application can improve the structural strength and dynamic stiffness of the mounting assembly.

[0004] This application provides a mounting assembly including a shock absorber mounting plate and a first reinforcing plate. The shock absorber mounting plate extends along a first direction and has a first end and a second end along the first direction. The first end is provided with a mounting structure for mounting a shock absorber, and the second end is used to connect to the inner wheel arch panel of a vehicle. The first reinforcing plate is disposed on the side of the shock absorber mounting plate facing the inner wheel arch panel and extends along a second direction, which forms an angle with the first direction. The first reinforcing plate is connected to the first end.

[0005] The mounting assembly provided in this application includes a shock absorber mounting plate comprising a first end and a second end. The first end has a mounting structure for mounting the shock absorber. A first reinforcing plate is disposed on the side of the shock absorber mounting plate facing the inner plate of the wheel arch, and the first end is connected to the first reinforcing plate. That is, the first reinforcing plate is disposed between the first end and the inner plate of the wheel arch, forming an interconnected layered structure of the first end, which improves the strength of the first end. Since the mounting structure is located at the first end, the strength and durability of the mounting structure can be improved, reducing the possibility of local deformation of the mounting structure due to the impact force of the shock absorber. Because the shock absorber mounting plate extends along a first direction, the force at the mounting structure can be transmitted from the first end to the second end along the first direction. Because the first reinforcing plate extends along a second direction, the force transmitted to the first reinforcing plate via the shock absorber mounting plate can be transmitted along the second direction. The first and second directions have an angle, which can form a force transmission path with an angle. Dispersing the force transmission along the first and second directions and optimizing the force transmission path can improve the dynamic stiffness of the mounting assembly. Compared with the relatively low strength and dynamic stiffness of mounting brackets in related technologies, the mounting assembly of the present application improves the structural strength and dynamic stiffness of the mounting assembly by optimizing the structural strength at the mounting structure and optimizing the force transmission direction.

[0006] In one possible implementation of this application, the shock absorber mounting plate includes a first protrusion that protrudes away from the first reinforcing plate and extends along a first direction, forming a first reinforcing cavity between the first protrusion and the first reinforcing plate.

[0007] In one possible implementation of this application, the mounting structure is located on the first protrusion, and the portion of the first protrusion at the first end and the first reinforcing plate enclose the opening of the first reinforcing cavity, the opening extending along the first direction, and the first reinforcing cavity extending to the second end and between the inner plate of the wheel cover.

[0008] In one possible implementation of this application, the first reinforcing plate includes a second protrusion that protrudes away from the inner plate of the wheel cover, extends along a second direction, and at least a portion of the second protrusion is opposite to the first end, forming a second reinforcing cavity between the second protrusion and the inner plate of the wheel cover.

[0009] In one possible implementation of this application, there are at least two second reinforcing cavities, which are located on different sides of the mounting structure and extend to both ends of the first reinforcing plate along the second direction.

[0010] In one possible implementation of this application, there are two second protrusions, and a first recess is formed between the two second protrusions. The two ends of the first recess along the second direction are respectively connected to the inner plate of the wheel cover, and the middle part of the first recess is connected to the shock absorber mounting plate.

[0011] In one possible implementation of this application, the shock absorber mounting plate further includes at least two recessed structures, which are arranged sequentially along the outer edge of the shock absorber mounting plate. The recessed structures are used to connect the first reinforcing plate or the inner plate of the wheel cover.

[0012] In one possible implementation of this application, a receiving space is formed between the mounting structure and the first reinforcing plate. The receiving space includes a mounting through hole opened in the mounting structure. The receiving space is used to receive part of the shock absorber. The mounting structure also includes at least two mounting parts, which are respectively disposed on different sides of the mounting through hole. The first reinforcing plate includes at least two second protrusions. The at least two mounting parts correspond one-to-one with the at least two second protrusions. The shock absorber is connected to the shock absorber mounting plate and the second protrusions through the mounting parts.

[0013] In one possible implementation of this application, the mounting assembly further includes a second reinforcing plate, which is connected to the side of the first reinforcing plate away from the shock absorber mounting plate, and the second reinforcing plate is aligned with the mounting part.

[0014] This application provides a vehicle including a floor assembly, a shock absorber, and any of the above mounting assemblies, wherein the shock absorber mounting plate of the mounting assembly is connected to the floor assembly and the shock absorber respectively; the first direction is the length direction of the vehicle, and the second direction is the height direction of the vehicle.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the specific technical solutions of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this application. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this application, but are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0031] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.

[0032] Furthermore, in the embodiments of this application, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are defined relative to the positions in which the components are schematically placed in the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these directional terms are relative concepts, used for relative description and clarification, and can change accordingly depending on the position of the components in the accompanying drawings.

[0033] In the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium.

[0034] In embodiments of this application, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element.

[0035] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate that something is an example, illustration, or description. Any embodiment or design that is described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or design. Specifically, the use of the terms "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0036] This application provides a vehicle, which is a machine driven by fuel, electricity, etc., used to carry people or goods. The vehicle in this application includes, but is not limited to, cars, off-road vehicles, multi-purpose vehicles (MPVs), trucks, etc. For ease of explanation, the following embodiments use cars as examples.

[0037] Vehicles are typically equipped with shock absorbers. The upper end of the shock absorber is connected to the frame or sheet metal, and the lower end is connected to the suspension control arm or wheel hub bracket. Shock absorbers are used to absorb and buffer impacts from the road surface, reduce vehicle bumps, maintain good contact between the wheels and the ground, and improve driving stability and ride comfort.

[0038] Shock absorbers are typically fixed to the vehicle body or chassis structure via mounting brackets. However, due to long-term exposure to dynamic alternating loads, the structural strength, fatigue life, and vibration transmission efficiency of the mounting points all decrease. In related technologies, shock absorber mounting brackets are thinned to varying degrees, sometimes excessively, which reduces the strength of the mounting bracket and makes it prone to localized metal fatigue. After long-term use, cracks or loosening of connections may occur, resulting in a low dynamic stiffness level of the mounting bracket.

[0039] Therefore, this application also provides an installation assembly, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The mounting assembly includes a shock absorber mounting plate 100 and a first reinforcing plate 200. The shock absorber mounting plate 100 extends along a first direction X and has a first end 110 and a second end 120 along the first direction X. The first end 110 is provided with a mounting structure 111 for mounting a shock absorber, and the second end 120 is used to connect to the inner wheel arch panel 500 of the vehicle. The first reinforcing plate 200 is disposed on the side of the shock absorber mounting plate 100 facing the inner wheel arch panel 500 and extends along a second direction Y. The second direction Y forms an angle with the first direction X, and the first reinforcing plate 200 is connected to the first end 110.

[0040] In some examples, the shock absorber mounting plate 100 has a mounting structure 111, and the end connected to the first reinforcing plate 200 is the first end 110; the end of the shock absorber mounting plate 100 connected to the inner wheel arch plate 500 is the second end 120.

[0041] In some examples, the angle between the second direction Y and the first direction X can be an acute angle, for example, the angle between the second direction Y and the first direction X is 30 degrees, and an oblique support structure is formed between the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the first reinforcing plate 200, so that the load is distributed along the acute angle direction.

[0042] In other examples, the angle between the second direction Y and the first direction X is a right angle. An "L"-shaped or "+"-shaped structure may be formed between the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the first reinforcing plate 200 to provide vertical rigid support for the shock absorber, facilitating the distribution of vertical vibration loads. (Refer to...) Figure 2 In this example, the mounting assembly shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the first reinforcing plate 200 form an L-shaped structure.

[0043] In some other examples, the angle between the second direction Y and the first direction X is an obtuse angle, for example, the angle between the second direction Y and the first direction X is 120 degrees. A large-angle extension structure may be formed between the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the first reinforcing plate 200 to enhance the resistance to torsional moment.

[0044] In some examples, the first end 110 is provided with a mounting structure 111 for mounting a shock absorber, and the mounting structure 111 may be located in the middle of the first end 110; in other examples, the mounting structure 111 may also be located at the edge of the first end 110.

[0045] In some examples, the first reinforcing plate 200 is disposed on the side of the shock absorber mounting plate 100 facing the inner wheel cover plate 500, which can also be understood as the first reinforcing plate 200 being disposed between the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the inner wheel cover plate 500; or it can be understood as the first reinforcing plate 200 being disposed between the first end 110 and the inner wheel cover plate 500.

[0046] In some examples, the first end 110 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200, and the connection method may include at least one such as welding, bolt connection, screw connection, etc.; in other examples, at least a portion of the first end 110 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200, and the connection method may include at least one such as welding, bolt connection, screw connection, etc.

[0047] In some examples, the second end 120 is connected to the inner wheel cover plate 500, and the connection method may include at least one such as welding, bolt connection, screw connection, etc.; in other examples, at least a portion of the second end 120 is connected to the inner wheel cover plate 500, and the connection method may include at least one such as welding, bolt connection, screw connection, etc.

[0048] It should be explained that the mounting assembly can be located at either the front or rear wheels of the vehicle. In some examples, the mounting assembly is located at the rear wheels to connect the rear shock absorbers at the rear wheel arches to the rear wheel arch inner panel and floor assembly.

[0049] The mounting assembly of this application embodiment includes a shock absorber mounting plate 100 comprising a first end 110 and a second end 120. The first end 110 has a mounting structure 111 for mounting a shock absorber. A first reinforcing plate 200 is disposed on the side of the shock absorber mounting plate 100 facing the inner wheel arch plate 500, and the first end 110 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200. That is, the first reinforcing plate 200 is disposed between the first end 110 and the inner wheel arch plate 500, which means that the first end 110, the first reinforcing plate 200, and the inner wheel arch plate 500 form an interconnected stacked structure, thereby improving the strength of the first end 110. Since the mounting structure 111 is located at the first end 110, the strength and durability of the mounting structure 111 can be improved, and the local deformation of the mounting structure 111 due to the impact force of the shock absorber can be reduced.

[0050] Since the shock absorber mounting plate 100 extends along the first direction X, the force at the mounting structure 111 can be transmitted from the first end 110 to the second end 120 along the first direction X; since the first reinforcing plate 200 extends along the second direction Y, the force transmitted to the first reinforcing plate 200 by the shock absorber mounting plate 100 can be transmitted along the second direction Y; there is an angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y, which can form a force transmission path with an angle, and the force transmission is dispersed along the first direction X and the second direction Y. Optimizing the force transmission path can improve the dynamic stiffness of the mounting assembly.

[0051] Compared with the relatively low strength and dynamic stiffness of mounting brackets in related technologies, the mounting assembly of the present application improves the structural strength and dynamic stiffness of the mounting assembly by optimizing the structural strength at the mounting structure 111 and optimizing the force transmission direction.

[0052] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 The shock absorber mounting plate 100 includes a first protrusion 130, which protrudes in a direction away from the first reinforcing plate 200 and extends along a first direction X. The first protrusion 130 forms a first reinforcing cavity A with at least the first reinforcing plate 200.

[0053] In some examples, the first protrusion 130 extends along the first direction X, which can also be understood as the first protrusion 130 extending from the first end 110 to the second end 120. The topological shape of the first protrusion 130 in the first direction X can be straight, wavy, bifurcated, or gradually varying in height, etc. For example, if the topological shape of the first protrusion 130 in the first direction X is straight, the stiffness of the first protrusion 130 can be improved more uniformly.

[0054] In some examples, the cross-sectional shape of the first protrusion 130 can be arc-shaped, trapezoidal, triangular, or square, etc.

[0055] In some examples, a continuous first reinforcing cavity A is formed between the first protrusion 130 and the first reinforcing plate 200; in another example, multiple first reinforcing cavities A are formed between the first protrusion 130 and the first reinforcing plate 200.

[0056] In some examples, the first reinforcing cavity A can be a closed cavity, for example, the outer edge of the first end 110 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200, and the connection method can be welding, bolt connection, screw connection, etc.; in another example, the first reinforcing cavity A can be a semi-closed cavity, for example, at least a portion of the outer edge of the first end 110 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200, and the connection method can be welding, bolt connection, screw connection, etc.

[0057] In some examples, a first reinforcing cavity A may also be formed between the first protrusion 130 and the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover.

[0058] In the mounting assembly of this application embodiment, a first protrusion 130 on the shock absorber mounting plate 100 extends along a first direction X, forming a reinforcing rib structure extending along the first direction X on the shock absorber mounting plate 100. This helps to disperse force transmission and optimize vibration transmission and NVH performance, which refers to the performance of noise, vibration, and harshness. The first protrusion 130 forms a first reinforcing cavity A at least with the first reinforcing plate 200. The first reinforcing cavity A can reduce the direct transmission of force to the first reinforcing plate 200 when subjected to impact, reducing the risk of deformation of the first reinforcing plate 200.

[0059] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 The mounting structure 111 is located on the first protrusion 130. The portion of the first protrusion 130 located at the first end 110 and the first reinforcing plate 200 surround each other to form the opening 140 of the first reinforcing cavity A. The opening 140 extends along the first direction X. The first reinforcing cavity A extends to the space between the second end 120 and the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover.

[0060] In some examples, the mounting structure 111 is located on the first protrusion 130, that is, the mounting structure 111 is disposed on the first protrusion 130. This can be understood as the center of the mounting structure 111 being located at the center of the top of the protrusion on the cross section of the first protrusion 130. For example, when the cross section of the first protrusion 130 is trapezoidal, the mounting structure 111 is disposed on the upper surface of the trapezoid.

[0061] Reference Figure 2 In some examples, the side of the first end 110 away from the second end 120 includes a first recess 151 and a second recess 152 formed toward the side of the first reinforcement member. The first recess 151 and the second recess 152 are located on both sides of the first protrusion 130, and the first recess 151 and the second recess 152 are used to connect with the first reinforcement member to form an opening 140 of the first reinforcement cavity A on the side of the first end 110 away from the second end 120.

[0062] In some examples, the shock absorber mounting plate 100 also includes a third recess 153 and a fourth recess 154 formed toward the side of the first reinforcement member. The third recess 153 and the fourth recess 154 are located on both sides of the first protrusion 130, respectively. The third recess 153 is connected to the first reinforcement plate 200 and the inner wheel cover plate 500, respectively, and the fourth recess 154 is also connected to the first reinforcement plate 200 and the inner wheel cover plate 500, respectively, thereby extending the first reinforcement cavity A between the second end 120 and the inner wheel cover plate 500.

[0063] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 7In some examples, the first reinforcing cavity A extends between the second end 120 and the inner wheel arch plate 500. This can be understood as the portion of the first protrusion 130 located at the second end 120 and the inner wheel arch plate 500 forming a cavity, and the cavity communicating with the first reinforcing cavity A formed between the first protrusion 130 and the first reinforcing plate 200, thereby enclosing and forming the first reinforcing cavity A between the first protrusion 130, the first reinforcing plate 200 and the inner wheel arch plate 500.

[0064] In the mounting assembly of this application embodiment, the mounting structure 111 is located on the first protrusion 130. The force received at the mounting structure 111 can be directly transmitted through the three-dimensional structure of the first protrusion 130, reducing stress concentration. The portion of the first protrusion 130 located at the first end 110 surrounds the first reinforcing plate 200, forming a cavity opening 140 extending along the first direction X, thereby optimizing the transmission path in the first direction X.

[0065] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The first reinforcing plate 200 includes a second protrusion 210, which protrudes in a direction away from the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover. The second protrusion 210 extends along the second direction Y, and at least a portion of the second protrusion 210 is opposite to the first end 110. A second reinforcing cavity B is formed between the second protrusion 210 and the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover.

[0066] In some examples, the topological shape of the second protrusion 210 in the second direction Y can be straight, wavy, bifurcated, or gradually varying in height. For example, if the topological shape of the second protrusion 210 in the second direction Y is straight, the stiffness of the second protrusion 210 can be improved more uniformly.

[0067] In some examples, the cross-sectional shape of the second protrusion 210 can be arc-shaped, trapezoidal, triangular, or square, etc.

[0068] In some examples, a continuous second reinforcing cavity B is formed between the second protrusion 210 and the inner edge 500 of the wheel cover; in another example, multiple second reinforcing cavities B are formed between the second protrusion 210 and the inner edge 500 of the wheel cover.

[0069] In some examples, the second reinforcing cavity B can be a closed cavity; in another example, the second reinforcing cavity B can be a semi-closed cavity.

[0070] In some examples, at least a portion of the second protrusion 210 is opposite to the first end 110, which can be understood as at least a portion of the projection of the second protrusion 210 covering the projection of the first end 110 in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the second protrusion 210.

[0071] In some examples, the first reinforcing plate 200 also includes a first positioning structure 240, which is used for positioning between the first reinforcing plate 200 and the inner wheel cover plate 500 to improve installation accuracy. The first positioning structure 240 can be a slotted hole, a positioning boss, or a positioning guide groove, etc.

[0072] In the mounting assembly of this application embodiment, since the second protrusion 210 is at least partially opposite to the first end 110, a composite reinforcing structure of the first reinforcing cavity A and the second reinforcing cavity B can be formed in the area where the first end 110 is located, further enhancing the structural strength of the mounting structure 111. Furthermore, since the second protrusion 210 extends along the second direction Y, there is an angle between the first protrusion 130 and the second protrusion 210, which can disperse the force transmission direction. This optimizes the force transmission path on the shock absorber mounting plate 100, and also optimizes the force transmission path on the first reinforcing plate 200 when the shock absorber mounting plate 100 transmits force to the first reinforcing plate 200, further reducing force concentration.

[0073] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 There are at least two second reinforcing cavities B, which are located on different sides of the mounting structure 111, and extend to both ends of the first reinforcing plate 200 along the second direction Y.

[0074] In some examples, the two second reinforcing cavities B extend to both ends of the first reinforcing plate 200 along the second direction Y. This can be understood as the second reinforcing cavity B having openings 140 at both ends of the first reinforcing plate 200 along the second direction Y, so that the ends of the second reinforcing cavity B are open and through.

[0075] In some examples, there are at least two second reinforcing cavities B, and there may also be four or six second reinforcing cavities B. At least two second reinforcing cavities B are located on different sides of the mounting structure 111, which means that at least one second reinforcing cavity B is provided on different sides of the mounting structure 111.

[0076] In some examples, each second reinforcing cavity B corresponds to a second protrusion 210, and at least two second reinforcing cavities B include a front second reinforcing cavity B and a rear second reinforcing cavity B, with the front second reinforcing cavity B corresponding to the front second protrusion 211 and the rear second reinforcing cavity B corresponding to the rear second protrusion 212.

[0077] Reference Figure 1In some examples, the second protrusion 210 is connected to the inner wheel arch plate 500 via a connecting structure 230, thereby forming a second reinforcing cavity B between the second protrusion 210 and the inner wheel arch plate 500. For example, the side of the front second protrusion 211 has a first connecting segment 231 and a second connecting segment 232, which are located on both sides of the front second protrusion 211, and both the first connecting segment 231 and the second connecting segment 232 extend along the second direction Y. The first connecting segment 231 and the second connecting segment 232 are used to connect with the inner wheel arch plate 500, and the connection method can be welding, bolting, etc.

[0078] For example, the second rear protrusion 212 has a third connecting segment 233 and a fourth connecting segment 234 on its side. The third connecting segment 233 and the fourth connecting segment 234 are located on both sides of the second rear protrusion 212, and both the third connecting segment 233 and the fourth connecting segment 234 extend along the second direction Y. The third connecting segment 233 and the fourth connecting segment 234 are used to connect with the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover. The connection method can be welding, bolt connection, etc.

[0079] In the mounting assembly of this application embodiment, at least two second reinforcing cavities B are located on different sides of the mounting structure 111, which can increase the structural strength on different sides of the mounting structure 111, thereby improving the uniformity of strength at the mounting structure 111 and reducing the situation of unilateral overload. Since the second reinforcing cavity B has openings 140 at both ends of the first reinforcing plate 200 along the second direction Y, the second reinforcing cavity B is a semi-closed cavity, which reduces the stress concentration caused by the abrupt change in cross-sectional area at the cavity ends.

[0080] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 There are two second protrusions 210, and a first recess 220 is formed between the two second protrusions 210. The two ends of the first recess 220 along the second direction Y are respectively connected to the inner plate of the wheel cover 500, and the middle part of the first recess 220 is connected to the shock absorber mounting plate 100.

[0081] In some examples, on the side of the first reinforcing member near the inner wheel arch plate 500, the surface of the first recess 220 is closer to the inner wheel arch plate 500 than the surfaces of the two second protrusions 210, so that the cross-section of the first reinforcing member in the first direction X forms an “M”-shaped structure; the two ends of the first recess 220 along the second direction Y are connected to the inner wheel arch plate 500; a third reinforcing cavity is formed between the first recess 220 and the inner wheel arch plate 500, and the third reinforcing cavity is connected to the second reinforcing cavity B.

[0082] In some examples, the portions on both sides of the first protrusion 130 on the shock absorber mounting plate 100 corresponding to the second protrusion 210 are connected to the surface of the second protrusion 210.

[0083] In some examples, one end of the first recess 220 has a fifth connecting segment 235, which is located at the end of the first recess 220 away from the first end 110. The fifth connecting segment 235 is recessed towards the inner wheel arch plate 500, and a fourth connecting segment 234 is used to connect one end of the first recess 220 to the inner wheel arch plate 500. The other end of the first recess 220 has a sixth connecting segment 236, and the fifth connecting segment 235 is used to connect to the inner wheel arch plate 500.

[0084] In some examples, the shock absorber mounting plate 100 has a fifth recess 155 at the center of the first recess 220, the fifth recess 155 being used to connect to the first recess 220.

[0085] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The shock absorber mounting plate 100 also includes at least two recessed structures 150, which are arranged sequentially along the outer edge of the shock absorber mounting plate 100. The recessed structures 150 are used to connect the first reinforcing plate 200 or the inner plate of the wheel cover 500.

[0086] In some examples, at least two sunken platform structures 150 include the first sunken platform 151, the second sunken platform 152, the third sunken platform 153, the fourth sunken platform 154, and the fifth sunken platform 155 described above.

[0087] In some examples, at least two recessed structures 150 also include a sixth recessed platform 156, which is formed on the side facing the first reinforcing plate 200 and is used to connect with the fifth connecting section 235. The sixth recessed platform 156 also includes a through hole for sequentially connecting the sixth recessed platform 156, the fifth connecting section 235, and the wheel cover inner plate 500 by bolts.

[0088] In some examples, the recessed platform structure 150 is used to connect the first reinforcing plate 200 or the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover, and the connection method may include welding, bolting, and screwing. For example, the fourth recessed platform 154 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200 by bolts.

[0089] In the mounting assembly of this application embodiment, at least two recessed platform structures 150 are sequentially arranged along the outer edge of the shock absorber mounting plate 100, so that the outer edge of the shock absorber mounting plate 100 is connected to the first reinforcing plate 200 or the inner plate 500 of the wheel cover, thereby reducing the impact on the formation of the first reinforcing cavity A in the middle of the shock absorber mounting plate 100.

[0090] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 A receiving space C is formed between the mounting structure 111 and the first reinforcing plate 200. The receiving space C includes a mounting through hole 1111 opened in the mounting structure 111. The receiving space C is used to accommodate part of the shock absorber. The mounting structure 111 also includes at least two mounting parts 1112, which are respectively disposed on different sides of the mounting through hole 1111. The first reinforcing plate 200 includes at least two second protrusions 210. The at least two mounting parts 1112 correspond one-to-one with the at least two second protrusions 210. The shock absorber is connected to the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the second protrusions 210 through the mounting parts 1112.

[0091] In some examples, since the extension direction of the shock absorber is at an angle to the shock absorber mounting plate 100 during installation, in order to facilitate the installation of the shock absorber and reduce the interference of the shock absorber on the first reinforcing plate 200, a receiving space C for accommodating part of the shock absorber is formed between the mounting structure 111 and the first reinforcing plate 200, thereby allowing the first reinforcing plate 200 to avoid the shock absorber.

[0092] In some examples, at least two mounting portions 1112 are distributed on both sides of the mounting through hole 1111 along the first direction X. The mounting portions 1112 are located on the first protrusion 130, and the centers of the two mounting portions 1112 are aligned with the center of the mounting through hole 1111 along the first direction X.

[0093] In some examples, at least two mounting portions 1112 are respectively disposed on both sides of the mounting through hole 1111, and at least two mounting portions 1112 correspond one-to-one with at least two second protrusions 210. That is, each mounting portion 1112 is disposed on a corresponding second protrusion 210 and distributed on both sides of the mounting through hole 1111. The second protrusion 210 can directly disperse and transmit the stress of the mounting portion 1112 along the second direction Y.

[0094] In some examples, the two mounting portions 1112 have a hole-like structure, and the areas of the two second protrusions 210 corresponding to the mounting portions 1112 also have a matching hole-like structure. The shock absorber can be installed at the positions corresponding to the mounting portions 1112 and the second protrusions 210 by welding with the threaded pipe 400, so that both the second protrusions 210 and the mounting portions 1112 are connected to the shock absorber.

[0095] In other examples, at least two mounting portions 1112 may be distributed along the second direction Y on both sides of the mounting through hole 1111.

[0096] The mounting assembly of this embodiment improves space utilization by accommodating the shock absorber portion through the enclosure space C formed by the mounting structure 111 and the first reinforcing plate 200. Since at least two mounting portions 1112 are respectively disposed on both sides of the mounting through hole 1111, and each mounting portion 1112 corresponds to at least two second protrusions 210 (i.e., each mounting portion 1112 is located in the area of ​​a second protrusion 210), the second protrusion 210 can directly disperse and transmit the stress of the mounting portion 1112 along the second direction Y. With this structure, the stress on the mounting portion 1112 can be directly transmitted not only through the first protrusion 130 along the first direction X, but also directly through the second protrusion 210 along the second direction Y, thereby quickly dispersing and transmitting stress and reducing stress concentration.

[0097] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The mounting assembly also includes a second reinforcing plate 300, which is connected to the side of the first reinforcing plate 200 away from the shock absorber mounting plate 100, and the second reinforcing plate 300 is aligned with the mounting part 1112.

[0098] In some examples, the area of ​​the second protrusion 210 corresponding to the mounting portion 1112 is a connecting portion. The connecting portion is used to connect with the shock absorber together with the mounting portion 1112. Since the mounting portion 1112 and the connecting portion are connected to the shock absorber, they are areas directly subjected to the impact force of the shock absorber. In order to further enhance the strength of this area, the second reinforcing plate 300 is provided on the side of the first reinforcing plate 200 away from the shock absorber mounting plate 100 to enhance the structural strength of the connecting portion and the area of ​​the mounting portion 1112.

[0099] In some examples, the second reinforcing plate 300 is aligned with the mounting portion 1112, that is, it is located in the area of ​​the connection portion of the first reinforcing plate 200. In other words, the second reinforcing plate 300, the connection portion and the mounting portion 1112 form a stacked structure and are connected by a threaded tube 400.

[0100] In some examples, the second reinforcing plate 300 is adapted to the shape of the connecting part, so that the second reinforcing plate 300 and the connecting part fit tightly together, thereby improving the effect of increasing structural strength.

[0101] In some examples, the second reinforcing plate 300 includes a second positioning structure 310, which is used to position the second reinforcing plate 300 and the connecting part. The second positioning structure 310 can be a slot, a positioning boss, or a positioning guide groove, etc.

[0102] In the mounting assembly of this application embodiment, the second reinforcing plate 300 is disposed on the side of the first reinforcing plate 200 away from the shock absorber mounting plate 100, and the second reinforcing plate 300 is aligned with the mounting part 1112, thereby further improving the strength of the area where the mounting part 1112 is located and strengthening the strength at the connection point between the shock absorber and the mounting structure 111.

[0103] This application provides a vehicle, referring to... Figure 3 and Figure 12 The vehicle includes a floor assembly 600, a shock absorber 700, and a mounting assembly. The shock absorber mounting plate 100 of the mounting assembly is connected to the floor assembly 600 and the shock absorber 700, respectively. The first direction X is the length direction of the vehicle, and the second direction Y is the height direction of the vehicle.

[0104] In some examples, the outer edge of the shock absorber mounting plate 100 near the floor assembly 600 is used to connect to the floor assembly 600. The shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the floor assembly 600 can be connected by welding, bolting, screwing, or other methods. For example, the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the floor assembly 600 are connected by bolts and self-tapping screws to form a shock absorber mounting structure 111 that is connected to the vehicle body for stability.

[0105] In some examples, the mounting assembly can be made of steel, while the floor assembly 600 is typically made of aluminum alloy. The mounting assembly and the floor assembly 600 can be connected to form a steel-aluminum connection structure 230. The floor assembly 600 may include an adapter bracket, and the floor assembly 600 is typically made of a single die-cast piece.

[0106] In the vehicle of this application embodiment, the shock absorber mounting plate 100 is used to mount the shock absorber 700, and the shock absorber mounting plate 100 is connected to the floor assembly 600. The floor assembly 600 provides a stable mounting base for the shock absorber mounting plate 100, so that a continuous force transmission path is formed between the shock absorber mounting plate 100 and the floor assembly 600, reducing stress concentration problems.
