Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of side spoiler technology, and particularly relates to a segmented truck side spoiler. Background Technology

[0002] The side deflectors of a truck are a key component in the aerodynamic design of the vehicle. Their core function is to optimize airflow, reduce wind resistance and energy consumption, while also providing auxiliary functions such as improving driving stability and protecting the vehicle.

[0003] Patent CN206501918U discloses a side spoiler for the cab of a commercial vehicle. The spoiler is a single, integral structure and is vertically installed on one side behind the cab. The lower section of the spoiler is usually closer to the wheel. When the vehicle is in motion, road stones kicked up by the wheels can easily hit the lower section of the spoiler, causing severe wear on the lower section but slight wear on the upper section. However, the entire spoiler must be replaced at once, increasing the replacement cost.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing truck side spoilers. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects in the existing technology and provide a segmented truck side spoiler that reduces the cost of vehicle use.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of the segmented truck side spoiler of this utility model is as follows:

[0008] Preferably, the front end of the connecting bracket is provided with a rotating sleeve, which is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the angle adjustment component is a hydraulic cylinder, one end of the two hydraulic cylinders is hinged to the inner side of the upper turbulence section and the lower turbulence section respectively, and the other end of the two hydraulic cylinders is fixedly connected to a sliding sleeve, which is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft.

[0010] Preferably, both the rotating sleeve and the sliding sleeve are slidably connected to the support shaft, and a positioning sleeve may also be detachably connected to the support shaft, the positioning sleeve being used to limit the position of the rotating sleeve and the sliding sleeve on the support shaft.

[0011] Preferably, the positioning sleeve is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft, and the positioning sleeve is threaded with locking screws distributed radially along the positioning sleeve, the ends of the locking screws abutting against the outer periphery of the support shaft.

[0012] Preferably, the inner sidewalls of both the upper and lower turbulence sections are provided with hollow crossbeams.

[0013] Preferably, the main body is fitted with an elastic covering, which at least covers the outer sidewalls and the surrounding edges of the main body.

[0014] Preferably, the outer periphery of the covering is provided with a flanged portion, which is folded to the back of the main body and covers the inner sidewall of the main body.

[0015] Preferably, an annular reinforcing rib is provided on the inner sidewall of the main body, and the spacing between the reinforcing rib and the four edges of the main body is consistent. The flange is connected to the reinforcing rib by a hand-tightening screw.

[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0026] The terms "top surface," "bottom surface," and "flush surface" refer to the normal operating state of the segmented truck side spoiler and are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. They are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0027] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, a segmented truck side spoiler includes a spoiler body, which includes at least an upper spoiler section 3 and a lower spoiler section 4 distributed vertically; it also includes a vertically extending support shaft 1. Both the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4 are fixedly connected to a connecting bracket 2, and the connecting bracket 2 is rotatably connected to the support shaft 1. An angle adjustment component 6 is provided between the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4 and the support shaft 1; a rotating sleeve 201 is provided at the front end of the connecting bracket 2, and the rotating sleeve 201 is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft 1.

[0028] The aforementioned side spoilers are suitable for use on trucks or vans, and are installed on both sides behind the vehicle's cab to guide airflow, thereby reducing vehicle drag and fuel consumption. A mounting bracket is fixed on the support shaft 1, and the mounting bracket can be connected to the cab with screws to achieve fixed installation of the support shaft on the cab. The connecting bracket 2 is connected to the side spoiler with bolts, and the connecting bracket 2 is connected to the support shaft 1 through a rotating sleeve 201. The rotating sleeve 201 can rotate around the support shaft 1 to support the rotation of the side spoiler. The side spoiler is divided into an upper spoiler section 3 and a lower spoiler section 4 laterally, and both are connected to the support shaft 1 with angle adjustment components 6, which are used to drive the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4 to rotate around the support shaft 1, thereby allowing independent angle adjustment of each.

[0029] Compared with the existing complete side spoiler, dividing the side spoiler into upper spoiler section 3 and lower spoiler section 4 allows for the replacement of one of them individually based on their wear condition, thereby reducing the replacement cost of the side spoiler. It is also lighter and more convenient to replace than a single upper spoiler section 3 or lower spoiler section 4.

[0030] Further improvements include, for example Figure 1 and 2 As shown, the angle adjustment component 6 is a hydraulic cylinder. One end of each of the two hydraulic cylinders is hinged to the inner side of the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, respectively. The other end of each hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a sliding sleeve, which is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft 1. The side spoiler is driven by the hydraulic cylinder. When the hydraulic cylinder extends, it pushes the upper spoiler section 3 or the lower spoiler section 4 to flip outwards from the driver's side. When the hydraulic cylinder retracts, it pushes the upper spoiler section 3 or the lower spoiler section 4 to flip inwards from the driver's side. Furthermore, the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4 are driven by independent hydraulic cylinders, allowing for individual angle adjustment. This makes the adjustment more flexible and convenient, and it can be adapted to cargo boxes of different widths, improving the practicality of the side spoiler.

[0031] Further improvements include, for example Figure 4 As shown, both the rotating sleeve 201 and the sliding sleeve are slidably connected to the support shaft 1. A positioning sleeve 7 can also be detachably connected to the support shaft 1. The positioning sleeve 7 is used to limit the position of the rotating sleeve 201 and the sliding sleeve on the support shaft 1. The positioning sleeve 7 is coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the support shaft 1. A locking screw 701 is threaded on the positioning sleeve 7 and distributed radially along the positioning sleeve 7. The end of the locking screw 701 abuts against the outer periphery of the support shaft 1.

[0032] In the aforementioned side spoiler, the positioning sleeve 7 can be fixed and separated on the support shaft 1 by locking screw 701, so that the positioning sleeve 7 can be fixed at different positions on the support shaft 1. With positioning sleeve 7 provided on both sides of each rotating sleeve 201, the rotating sleeve 201 can be fixed at different heights on the support shaft 1, thereby realizing the height adjustment of the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, so that the side spoiler can be adapted to cargo boxes of different sizes and heights, further improving the practicality of the side spoiler.

[0033] Further improvements include, for example Figure 2 and 3 As shown, hollow crossbeams 402 are provided on the inner sidewalls of both the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4. The crossbeams 402 are designed to strengthen the structure of the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, improve their structural strength, and reduce the probability of deformation or breakage. Studs are welded onto the crossbeams 402, and mounting holes are provided on the connecting bracket. After the studs pass through the mounting holes, they are fixed by nuts, which allows for easy assembly and disassembly between the connecting bracket 2 and the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4.

[0034] Further improvements include, for example Figure 1 As shown, an elastic covering 5 is fitted onto the main body, covering at least the outer sidewalls and surrounding edges of the main body. The covering 5 can be made of elastic rubber, and the type and size of the rubber can be customized according to actual needs to ensure that the strength and size of the covering 5 meet the usage requirements. After the covering 5 wraps around the front and edges of the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, it can effectively protect them, reduce wear on both, and extend the service life of the side spoilers. Furthermore, the covering 5 can effectively cover the gap between the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, and through the stretching and contraction of the covering 5, it allows for a smooth transition between the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, which have a positional difference, thus giving the front of the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4 a smooth and complete surface, so that the side spoilers can have good airflow guiding performance.

[0035] Further improvements include, for example Figure 5 and 6 As shown, the outer periphery of the cover 5 is provided with a flange 501 circumferentially. The flange 501 folds over to the back of the main body and covers the inner sidewall of the main body. The flange 501 and the cover 5 are integrally formed. The flange 501 can cover and protect the inner sidewall of the side spoiler located at the edge. Furthermore, an annular groove is formed between the flange 501 and the cover 5, which can be inserted into the edge of the side spoiler, thereby improving the firmness of the connection between the cover 5 and the side spoiler.

[0036] Further improvements include, for example Figure 3 As shown, annular reinforcing ribs 401 are provided on the inner sidewall of the main body. The spacing between the reinforcing ribs 401 and the four edges of the main body is consistent. The flanged part 501 is connected to the reinforcing ribs 401 by hand-tightening screws 8. The four edges of the main body are provided with folded edges 404, which fold towards the back of the main body. Specifically, multiple threaded holes 403 are evenly distributed along the extension direction of the reinforcing ribs 401. Each threaded hole 403 is provided with a hand-tightening screw 8, which fixes the flanged part 501, thereby achieving a stable connection between the covering part 5 and the side spoiler. The reinforcing ribs 401 also strengthen the structure of the side spoiler. During the process of dividing the upper spoiler section 3 and the lower spoiler section 4, the reinforcing ribs 401 need to be divided accordingly. The angle between the folded edge 404 and the side spoiler is 90 degrees. The folded edge 404 can strengthen the structural strength of the edge of the side spoiler, further improve the firmness of the side spoiler, and reduce the probability of damage.
