Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle manufacturing technology, and in particular to a windshield mounting structure. Background Technology

[0002] The open-style landscape vehicle features a windshield mounted at the front of the frame, which extends from the front to the rear and is connected and secured to the chassis. The windshield is typically secured with bolts, requiring drilling holes in the frame and pre-drilling holes along the edge of the windshield. Once the holes are precisely aligned, bolts are used for connection.

[0003] This means that drilling the holes takes time, and it's crucial to ensure the dimensions of the holes in the windshield match those in the vehicle frame; otherwise, the bolts won't fit properly. Furthermore, the small contact area between the bolts and the windshield can lead to stress concentration, potentially causing the windshield to crack. Replacing the windshield requires removing multiple bolts, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the cumbersome and time-consuming process of installing and removing windshields using bolts, this invention provides a windshield installation structure that replaces conventional bolt installation with a clip-on connection method. The clips connect the windshield to the vehicle frame, improving the ease of windshield installation and removal, while also providing a large area of ​​support for the windshield and ensuring the reliability of the installation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: The windshield mounting structure has multiple clips attached to the front of the frame. These clips work together to attach a windshield. Each clip is a composite structure of a certain length, including a frame clip frame, a glass clip frame, and a limiting plate. The frame clip frame is bent into a "U" shape and is attached to the frame. The limiting plate is attached to the open end of the frame clip frame. The limiting plate and the frame clip frame are connected and combined to form a rectangular square tube that wraps around the frame, which improves the reliability of the clip installation. The glass frame is integrally formed on the closed end of the frame bracket, and the glass frame is bent into a " " shape. L The glass frame has an inward tilt on one side to restrict the windshield. The glass frame and the frame frame are connected and combined to form a narrow slot to accommodate the windshield. The slot is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, and the edge of the windshield extends into the slot. The tilted side of the glass frame presses tightly against the edge of the windshield to increase the reliability of the windshield within the glass frame.

[0006] Furthermore, the retaining strip is a composite structure made of a metal strip wrapped with rubber. This improves the strip's strength while preventing scratches on the windshield.

[0007] Furthermore, the frame clip is a rubber "U"-shaped frame. Each side of the open end of the frame clip is bent inward and outward to form an inner clip section and an outer clip section. The inner clip sections on both sides cooperate to fasten the frame, which facilitates the snap-fit ​​installation of the frame clip. The limiting plate is arranged between the outer clip sections on both sides.

[0008] Furthermore, a metal strip is embedded in the upper and lower sides of the frame clip frame. One end of the metal strip is away from the bending point of the frame clip frame, and the other end of the metal strip has a "T" shaped cross section. The other end of the metal strip is bent into the inner and outer buckling sections.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting plate is a rubber plate with both ends bent into hooks to form hook sections. The hook sections are fastened to the outer fastening sections. Multiple rubber extrusion strips are also spaced apart on the limiting plate. The extrusion strips are in close contact with the frame to increase the contact area between the limiting plate and the frame. The limiting plate has a second metal strip inside, which extends into the hook section at the end of the limiting plate and also extends into the extrusion strip.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting plate is also provided with multiple sets of fasteners, which are arranged at intervals along the length of the limiting plate. Each set of fasteners includes two set screws, which are arranged vertically at intervals.

[0011] Furthermore, the glass frame is made of rubber. L The glass frame has multiple deformation strips spaced vertically on its inclined side. These deformation strips are located within the slots and press tightly against the edge of the windshield, increasing the friction with the windshield.

[0012] Furthermore, the thickness of the inclined side of the glass frame is less than the thickness of the bottom side, and a wave-shaped metal strip three is built into the bottom side of the glass frame, which improves the load-bearing capacity of the windshield. A metal strip four is built into the closed end of the frame frame, and the upper end of the metal strip four is away from the bend of the frame frame, and the lower end is connected and fixed to one side of the metal strip three. The bottom of the inclined side of the glass frame has a metal strip five built in. The metal strip five is connected and fixed downward to the metal strip three. The metal strip four, metal strip three and metal strip five are connected and combined in sequence to form a hook shape.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model through the above technical solution are: Compared to conventional bolt installation, this invention utilizes a locking strip to achieve non-destructive installation of the windshield. The locking strip is secured to the vehicle frame via a frame clip, and further secured by a limiting plate, ensuring a secure connection and preventing detachment. The glass clip and frame clip are integrally formed, creating a U-shaped groove that easily supports the windshield, with the angled side of the glass clip pressing the windshield firmly against it.

[0014] The locking strip of this utility model is a composite structure composed of metal strips and rubber, which improves the strength of the locking strip itself while achieving flexible contact between the locking strip and the windshield, avoiding scratches to the windshield. The combined metal strips three, four, and five form a hook-shaped cross-section, increasing both the connection strength between the glass frame and the vehicle frame, and improving the load-bearing capacity of the glass frame. This effectively supports the windshield, resulting in a more secure assembly between the windshield and the vehicle frame. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings: like Figures 1-5As shown, the windshield mounting structure is used for non-destructive installation of the windshield 3 onto the frame 1, which is a steel frame structure welded from square tubing. Three locking strips 2 are attached to the front of the frame 1, arranged in a U-shape on both sides and the bottom of the frame 1. Each locking strip 2 is independent and does not contact the others. The three locking strips 2 work together to securely fasten the windshield 3 to the frame 1. The locking strips 2 engage with both the frame 1 and the windshield 3, facilitating quick and easy installation and removal of the windshield 3.

[0022] Each clip 2 is a composite structure of a certain length. Specifically, clip 2 is a composite structure made of a metal strip wrapped with rubber. The metal strip is a strip-shaped structure made of metal sheet. With the metal strip as the base and rubber wrapped on its surface, the composite clip 2 is formed. Thus, clip 2 has a certain supporting strength and can also achieve flexible contact between the windshield 3 and clip 2, thus playing a protective role.

[0023] In this embodiment, the clip 2 includes a frame clip 4, a glass clip 5, and a limiting plate 6. The frame clip 4 is used to clip with the frame 1, the glass clip 5 is used to clip with the windshield 3, and the limiting plate 6 can cooperate with the frame clip 4 to ensure reliable installation of the frame clip 4.

[0024] The frame clip 4 is bent into a "U" shape; here, the frame clip 4 is a rubber "U"-shaped frame. The frame clip 4 is snapped onto the frame 1. Specifically, each side of the open end of the frame clip 4 is bent inward and outward to form an inner snap section 71 and an outer snap section 72. The inner snap section 71 and the outer snap section 72 have the same structure but different bending directions. The inner snap sections 71 on both sides of the open end of the frame clip 4 cooperate to fasten the frame 1, thus achieving the snap-fit ​​installation of the frame clip 4 onto the frame 1. The elastic deformation of the inner snap sections 71 improves the tightness of the installation.

[0025] Metal strips 8 are embedded on the upper and lower sides of the frame frame 4. One end of the metal strip 8 is away from the bend of the frame frame 4 to avoid affecting the free deformation and recovery of the rubber at the bend. The other end of the metal strip has a "T" shaped cross-section and is bent into the inner buckle section 71 and the outer buckle section 72, which can increase the structural strength of the open end of the frame frame 4. A certain number of holes can be made on the metal strip 8, into which the rubber is embedded to increase the bonding strength with the frame frame 4.

[0026] The open end of the frame clip 4 is engaged with a limiting plate 6. Specifically, the limiting plate 6 is arranged between the outer clip sections 72 on both sides of the open end. The limiting plate 6 is a rubber plate. The limiting plate 6 closes the open end of the frame clip 4 and limits the size of the open end. After the limiting plate 6 and the frame clip 4 are connected and combined, they form a rectangle that wraps around the square tube of the frame 1, which ensures that the clip 2 can be reliably installed on the frame 1.

[0027] When the limiting long plate 6 is snap - installed, both ends of the limiting long plate 6 are bent into a hook - like shape to form hook sections 61. The cross - section of the hook section 61 is approximately in the shape of an inverted 'L', and the hook sections 61 at both ends are symmetrical. The hook section 61 cooperates with the outer buckling section 72. That is, the hook section 61 is buckled on the outer buckling section 72 to achieve the snap - installation of the limiting long plate 6 and the frame card frame 4. Through the deformation of the hook section 61 and the outer buckling section 72, the reliability of the snap - installation is ensured.

[0028] Three rubber extrusion strips 62 are also arranged at intervals on the limiting long plate 6. The extrusion strips 62 are integrally formed with the limiting long plate 6. The extrusion strips 62 are closely attached to the frame 1, and the contact area between the limiting long plate 6 and the frame 1 is increased by using the extrusion strips 62.

[0029] To increase the structural strength of the limiting long plate 6, a second metal thin - strip 9 is built into the limiting long plate 6. A certain number of holes are opened on the second metal thin - strip 9 to promote the embedding of rubber therein, improving the bonding force between the metal thin - strip and the limiting long plate 6. The second metal thin - strip 9 extends into the hook section 61 at the end of the limiting long plate 6, and the second metal thin - strip 9 also extends into the extrusion strip 62.

[0030] A glass card frame 5 is integrally formed at the closed end of the frame card frame 4. The glass card frame 5 is bent into a '[['' shape. Here, the glass card frame 5 is a rubber - made '[['' - shaped plate body. One side of the glass card frame 5 inclines inward, aiming to press the windshield 3 tightly. The thickness of the inclined side of the glass card frame 5 is less than the thickness of the bottom side. L L After the glass card frame 5 and the frame card frame 4 are connected and combined, a narrow - slit - like card slot 10 is formed. The card slot 10 is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top. The edge of the windshield 3 extends into the card slot 10, and the inclined side of the glass card frame 5 tightly presses the edge of the windshield 3 to achieve the snap - installation of the windshield 3. Four rubber deformation strips 11 are arranged at intervals up and down on the inclined side of the glass card frame 5. The deformation strips 11 are located in the card slot 10 and tightly press the edge of the windshield 3, increasing the friction with the windshield 3.

[0031] To improve the bearing capacity of the glass card strip 2, a wavy third metal thin - strip 12 is built into the bottom side of the glass card frame 5. The third metal thin - strip 12 is a continuous arch, and the extending direction of the corrugations of the third metal thin - strip 12 is consistent with the length direction of the card strip 2. A rectangular hole 14 is opened on the third metal thin - strip 12, and the long - side direction of the rectangular hole 14 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the corrugations of the third metal thin - strip 12, which can both increase the bonding force between the third metal thin - strip 12 and the glass card frame 5 and minimize the influence on the strength of the third metal thin - strip 12 as much as possible.

[0032]

[0033] ​​Meanwhile, a fourth metal strip 13 is built into the closed end of the frame clamping frame 4. The upper end of the fourth metal strip 13 is far from the bending part of the frame clamping frame 4, and the lower end is fixedly connected to one side of the third metal strip 12. After the fourth metal strip 13 and the third metal strip 12 are fixedly connected, the cross-section is in an "L" shape.

[0034] And a fifth metal strip 15 is built into the bottom of the inclined side of the glass clamping frame 5, which does not affect the free deformation ability of the top of the inclined side. The fifth metal strip 15 is fixedly connected downward to the other side of the third metal strip 12. The fourth metal strip 13, the third metal strip 12 and the fifth metal strip 15 are sequentially connected and combined into a hook shape, that is, in a "ㄣ" shape. It can not only increase the reliability of the glass clamping frame 5 to support the windshield 3, but also improve the connection strength between the glass clamping frame 5 and the frame clamping frame 4.

[0035] The principle of the present utility model is as follows: First, install a clamping strip 2 at the bottom side of the frame 1. When installing, first clamp the frame clamping frame 4 onto the frame 1, and then clamp the limit clamping plate onto the frame clamping frame 4, so as to reliably install the clamping strip 2 at the bottom side of the frame 1. Take the windshield 3 and place it in the card slot 10. At this time, the windshield 3 is pressed through the deformation of the inclined side of the glass clamping frame 5 and the deformation strip 11.

[0036] Then install the two clamping strips 2 on both sides of the frame 1. When installing, clamp the clamping strip 2 to the windshield 3 and the frame 1 at the same time, and then install the limit clamping strip 2. The windshield 3 is installed through the clamping form of the three clamping strips 2, realizing the convenient and non-destructive installation of the windshield 3.

[0037] In order to optimize the product structure and achieve the anti-loosening of the limit long plate 6, three groups of fixing parts are also provided on the limit long plate 6. The three groups of fixing parts are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the limit long plate 6. Each group of fixing parts includes two set screws 16, and the two set screws 16 are arranged at intervals up and down. After tightening the set screws 16, make them abut against the frame 1, so as to keep a certain pre-tightening force between the limit long plate 6 and the frame 1 and prevent the limit long plate 6 from shifting.

[0038] The above embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the scope of implementation of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the structure, features and principles described in the scope of the present utility model patent shall be included in the scope of the patent application of the present utility model.
