[0008] Optionally, the crossbeam is provided with a channel arranged along its own extension direction, and a partition arranged along the extension direction is provided in the channel, the partition dividing the channel into a first channel unit and a second channel unit; A sleeve is inserted into the third mounting hole, and the sleeve passes through the first channel unit, the partition and the second channel unit in sequence. The second fastener passes through the sleeve and is threadedly connected to the fourth mounting hole.

[0009] Optionally, the crossbeam, the mounting component, and the sleeve are all made of aluminum.

[0010] Optionally, the two ends of the crossbeam are respectively provided with first positioning holes, and the support member is provided with second positioning holes; The first positioning hole and the second positioning hole are respectively provided, and the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole are respectively provided for passing through the positioning pin.

[0011] Optionally, the support member is a support plate; The support plate has an edge region and a central region. The edge region is connected to the left or right beam assembly. The central region protrudes relative to the left or right beam assembly and forms a space, and the central region is connected to the crossbeam.

[0012] Optionally, the hood lock mounting structure includes two mounting members, which are respectively disposed near the two ends of the crossbeam; Each of the mounting components includes a first leg and a second leg, which are respectively fixedly connected to the crossbeam.

[0013] Optionally, each of the mounting components further includes an upper cavity and a lower cavity; The cross-sectional area of ​​the upper cavity is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the lower cavity; The upper cavity wall is provided with a latching through hole, and / or the upper cavity wall is provided with a cover locking fixing hole, and / or the upper cavity wall is provided with a cover locking positioning hole.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0021] The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific examples and application scenarios.

[0022] refer to Figures 1 to 10 This application discloses a hood lock mounting structure for installing a hood lock to ensure the stability of the hood lock installation. The disclosed hood lock mounting structure includes a left beam assembly 10, a right beam assembly 20, a crossbeam 30, a support member 40, and a mounting member 50.

[0023] The left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20 are located on the left and right sides of the vehicle, respectively. The left beam assembly 10 provides a mounting base for other components on the left side of the vehicle, and the right beam assembly 20 provides a mounting base for other components on the right side of the vehicle. The crossbeam 30 can be a crossbeam for the radiator, which can provide a mounting base for components such as the radiator. The support member 40 can provide support and mounting base for both ends of the crossbeam 30. The mounting member 50 is used to install a hood lock for locking the vehicle hood.

[0024] The support member 40 is detachably mounted on the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20, so that the support member 40 on the left beam assembly 10 can support and install the left end of the crossbeam 30, and the support member 40 on the right beam assembly 20 can support and install the right end of the crossbeam 30, so as to ensure the installation stability of the support member 40 and the crossbeam 30. In addition, the support member 40 can also be removed from the left beam assembly 10 or the right beam assembly 20 to facilitate vehicle maintenance.

[0025] One end of the crossbeam 30 is detachably connected to the support member 40 on the left beam assembly 10, and the other end of the crossbeam 30 is detachably connected to the support member 40 on the right beam assembly 20. Based on this, the two ends of the crossbeam 30 can be supported and installed respectively by the support members 40 on the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20 to ensure the installation stability of the crossbeam 30.

[0026] Mounting component 50 is connected to crossbeam 30 to ensure the installation stability of mounting component 50.

[0027] Based on the above configuration, in this embodiment, the crossbeam 30 is detachably connected to the support member 40, and the support member 40 is detachably connected to the left beam assembly 10 or the right beam assembly 20. Compared with the related technology where the two ends of the crossbeam 30 are directly welded and fixed to the front beam modules on the left and right sides of the vehicle, in this embodiment, the crossbeam 30 is indirectly connected to the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam through the support member 40, and a detachable connection method is used instead of the welding method. This eliminates the need to add a large area of ​​reinforcing plates to improve the strength and rigidity of the connection while ensuring the reliability of the connection. This reduces the overall weight of the engine hood lock installation structure, which is conducive to achieving lightweight design. Furthermore, the detachable connection has the advantage of convenient disassembly and assembly compared to welding, which is conducive to improving maintenance efficiency.

[0028] It should be noted that in related technologies, to ensure the welding strength at the joint, it is necessary to add a large area of ​​reinforcing plates at the joint. At the same time, to meet welding requirements, the thickness of the crossbeam 30 and the front beam modules on both sides of the vehicle are relatively large, and the welding area is also large, resulting in a large overall weight, which is detrimental to the development of vehicle lightweighting. Therefore, the embodiments of this application improve and optimize the connection method of the crossbeam 30 to avoid the need for large-area addition of reinforcing plates for welding, thereby promoting the development of vehicle lightweighting.

[0029] To enable the installation of support member 40, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20 are each provided with at least one first mounting hole 10a. Correspondingly, the support member 40 may be provided with at least one second mounting hole 41. The at least one second mounting hole 41 provided by the support member 40 corresponding to the left beam assembly 10 may be provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least one first mounting hole 10a provided by the left beam assembly 10. The at least one second mounting hole 41 provided by the support member 40 corresponding to the right beam assembly 20 may be provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least one first mounting hole 10a provided by the right beam assembly 20. In addition, a first fastener (not shown in the figure) may be inserted into the corresponding first mounting hole 10a and second mounting hole 41.

[0030] Based on the above configuration, the corresponding support member 40 can be fastened to the left beam assembly 10 or the right beam assembly 20 respectively using the first fastener, which can both ensure the installation stability of the support member 40 and facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the support member 40.

[0031] Optionally, the first mounting hole 10a can be a threaded hole, the second mounting hole 41 can be a through hole, and the first fastener can be a bolt, screw, or other component, so that one end of the first fastener can pass through the second mounting hole 41 and be threadedly connected to the first mounting hole 10a.

[0032] refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments, the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20 may each be provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 10a. Correspondingly, the support member 40 may be provided with a plurality of second mounting holes 41, and the plurality of second mounting holes 41 may be distributed in the edge region 40a of the support member 40, thereby increasing the fastening area of ​​the support member 40 and improving the installation stability of the support member 40.

[0033] To achieve the installation of the crossbeam 30 and the support member 40, such as Figure 5 and Figure 9As shown, there are third mounting holes 31 at both ends of the crossbeam 30, and the support member 40 is provided with fourth mounting holes 42. The third mounting holes 31 and the fourth mounting holes 42 are correspondingly arranged, and a second fastener (not shown in the figure) is passed through the correspondingly arranged third mounting holes 31 and fourth mounting holes 42.

[0034] Based on the above settings, the two ends of the crossbeam 30 can be respectively fastened to the corresponding support members 40 through the second fastener, which can not only ensure the installation stability of the two ends of the crossbeam 30 and the corresponding support members 40, but also facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the crossbeam 30 for maintenance.

[0035] Optionally, the fourth mounting hole 42 can be a threaded hole, the third mounting hole 31 can be a through hole, and the second fastener can be a component such as a bolt or a screw, so that one end of the second fastener can pass through the third mounting hole 31 and be threadedly connected to the fourth mounting hole 42.

[0036] Exemplarily, at least one third mounting hole 31 can be provided at each end of the crossbeam 30. Correspondingly, the support member 40 can be provided with at least one fourth mounting hole 42, and the respective numbers and layout manners of the third mounting holes 31 and the fourth mounting holes 42 can be set according to the actual working conditions.

[0037] To achieve lightweight design, the crossbeam 30 can be a hollow crossbeam to reduce the mass of the crossbeam 30. Specifically, the crossbeam 30 can be provided with a channel 32 arranged along its own extension direction to form a hollow crossbeam, as Figure 9 shown.

[0038] Furthermore, a partition 33 arranged along the extension direction of the crossbeam 30 can be provided in the channel 32. The partition 33 divides the channel 32 into a first channel unit 321 and a second channel unit 322. In this way, the cross-section of the crossbeam 30 can be in a "day" shape, and the strength of the crossbeam 30 can be improved by providing the partition 33.

[0039] Optionally, the partition 33 in the channel 32 can be one layer or multiple layers. When the partition 33 is multiple layers, adjacent two layers of partitions 33 can be spaced apart from each other. In this way, the strength of the crossbeam 30 can be further improved by providing multiple layers of partitions 33.

[0040] Optionally, the crossbeam 30 can be an integrally formed structure. Of course, the crossbeam 30 can also be an assembled structure formed by welding, riveting, etc., as long as the overall strength of the crossbeam 30 can be ensured, and the specific form is not limited.

[0041] Considering that the hood lock applies a force to the crossbeam 30 in the vertical direction of the vehicle through the mounting component 50, in this embodiment of the application, the first channel unit 321 and the second channel unit 322 can be arranged in the vertical direction to improve the load-bearing capacity of the crossbeam 30, so that the crossbeam 30 will not bend or deform when subjected to the vertical force generated by the hood lock, and ensure that the crossbeam 30 has sufficient strength and rigidity.

[0042] To further improve the load-bearing capacity of the crossbeam 30, a sleeve 60 can be inserted into the third mounting hole 31, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the sleeve 60 passes through the first channel unit 321 and the second channel unit 322 in sequence. The sleeve 60 and the crossbeam 30 can be fixedly connected, such as by welding, riveting, or bonding. Of course, it can also be detachable, such as by plugging, snapping, or overlapping. As long as a stable connection between the sleeve 60 and the crossbeam 30 can be ensured, the specific form is not limited.

[0043] In some more specific embodiments, the upper part of the sleeve 60 can be welded and fixed to the upper wall of the first channel unit 321 away from the partition 33, the middle part of the sleeve 60 can be welded and fixed to the partition 33, and the lower part of the sleeve 60 can be welded and fixed to the lower wall of the second channel unit 322 away from the partition 33. In this way, the firmness and stability of the connection between the sleeve 60 and the crossbeam 30 can be guaranteed.

[0044] The second fastener passes through the sleeve 60 and is threaded into the fourth mounting hole 42. Thus, the tightening force applied by the second fastener is directly applied to the sleeve 60 and transmitted to the crossbeam 30 through the sleeve 60. This effectively prevents the crossbeam 30 from deforming or even being damaged due to the second fastener directly applying tightening force, thereby ensuring both the installation stability and integrity of the crossbeam 30. It should be noted that the main function of the sleeve 60 is to support the crossbeam 30 in the direction of load (e.g., vertically) to prevent deformation or damage under load.

[0045] In some embodiments, the upper end of the sleeve 60 may protrude from the upper surface of the crossbeam 30 to prevent the second fastener bracket from pressing against the crossbeam 30.

[0046] For example, the sleeve 60 can be a threaded pipe, but of course, it can also be other types of pipe, which are not specifically limited here.

[0047] In some embodiments, the crossbeam 30, the mounting component 50, and the sleeve 60 can all be made of aluminum. Compared with iron, aluminum can reduce weight while increasing strength, thereby achieving the effect of lightweight design. Furthermore, it can also contribute to the high-end development of vehicles.

[0048] Of course, the crossbeam 30, mounting component 50 and sleeve 60 can also be made of other materials, as long as they can achieve lightweight design while ensuring strength, and there are no restrictions on the specific types.

[0049] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the two ends of the crossbeam 30 may each be provided with a first positioning hole 34, and correspondingly, the support member 40 may be provided with a second positioning hole 43. The first positioning hole 34 and the second positioning hole 43 are correspondingly provided, and the correspondingly provided first positioning hole 34 and second positioning hole 43 are used to pass through positioning pins (not shown in the figure). Based on this configuration, during the installation of the crossbeam 30, the first positioning hole 34 and the second positioning hole 43 can be aligned first, and then the positioning pins can be inserted to position the two ends of the crossbeam 30 and the corresponding support member 40 respectively, ensuring the positional accuracy of the two ends of the crossbeam 30.

[0050] It should be noted that after positioning, the third mounting hole 31 can be aligned with the fourth mounting hole 42 to secure the two ends of the crossbeam 30 to the corresponding support member 40 by inserting the second fastener.

[0051] In some embodiments, the support member 40 may be a support plate, which may have an edge region 40a and a central region 40b, such as Figure 5 As shown. The edge region 40a of the support plate is connected to the left beam assembly 10 or the right beam assembly 20. Optionally, the edge region 40a may be provided with a second mounting hole 41. When the edge region 40a is fitted to the left beam assembly 10 or the right beam assembly 20, the second mounting hole 41 is aligned with the first mounting hole 10a to achieve a fastening connection using a first fastener.

[0052] The middle region 40b of the support plate is connected to the crossbeam 30, so that the middle region 40b can support the end of the crossbeam 30.

[0053] Optionally, the fourth mounting hole 42 may be provided in the central region 40b so that when the end of the crossbeam 30 is placed in the central region 40b, the third mounting hole 31 is aligned with the fourth mounting hole 42 to achieve a fastening connection by means of the second fastener.

[0054] In addition, the central region 40b of the support plate protrudes relative to the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20 and forms a gap space, so as to provide a receiving space for the second fastener, so that the end of the second fastener can pass through the fourth mounting hole 42 and enter the gap space, preventing the surface of the left beam assembly 10 or the right beam assembly 20 from interfering with the second fastener.

[0055] In some more specific embodiments, the support member 40 can be an integrally stamped part, which can not only ensure the overall strength of the support member 40 but also improve the manufacturing efficiency. Of course, the support member 40 can also be a welded part, as long as the overall strength of the support member 40 can be ensured, and the specific form is not limited.

[0056] In other embodiments, the support member 40 can also be structures such as support blocks and support bars, as long as it can achieve the functions of supporting and installing the cross beam 30, and the specific form is not limited.

[0057] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the mounting member 50 can include a first leg 51 and a second leg 52, and the first leg 51 and the second leg 52 are respectively fixedly connected to the cross beam 30 to ensure the mounting stability and firmness of the mounting member 50.

[0058] Optionally, the first leg 51 and the second leg 52 can be arranged at intervals in the up-and-down direction, and the first leg 51 is located on the upper surface of the cross beam 30, and the second leg 52 is located on the lower surface of the cross beam 30. In this way, the cross beam 30 can be clamped between the first leg 51 and the second leg 52 to increase the contact area between the mounting member 50 and the cross beam 30.

[0059] Furthermore, both the first leg 51 and the second leg 52 are welded to the cross beam 30, thereby improving the firmness and stability of the mounting member 50 and the cross beam 30.

[0060] In other embodiments, the first leg 51 and the second leg 52 can also be respectively installed on the upper surface and the lower surface of the cross beam 30 by a detachable connection method. In this way, both the mounting stability of the mounting member 50 and the cross beam 30 can be ensured, and the disassembly and assembly of the mounting member 50 can be facilitated, so as to facilitate the replacement or repair of the mounting member 50.

[0061] In some more specific embodiments, the hood lock mounting structure can include two mounting members 50, and the two mounting members 50 are respectively arranged near the two end regions of the cross beam 30. In this way, the hood locks can be respectively installed through the two mounting members 50, so as to facilitate the locking of the hood through the two hood locks, thereby increasing the locking area of the hood and improving the stability of the hood.

[0062] Optionally, each mounting member 50 can also include an upper cavity 53 and a lower cavity 54 arranged in the up-and-down direction of the vehicle. As Figure 10 shown, the upper cavity 53 and the lower cavity 54 are separated from each other. In this way, a cross section in the shape of a Chinese character 'ri' can be formed, which can improve the strength and stiffness of the mounting member 50 to a certain extent.

[0063] The cross-sectional area of ​​the upper cavity 53 can be larger than that of the lower cavity 54, thus providing more space for installing the cover lock and meeting the installation requirements of the cover lock.

[0064] The cavity wall of the upper cavity 53 may have a latching through hole 53a, which provides clearance space for the latch. Optionally, the latching through hole 53a may be irregularly shaped. For example, the upper cavity 53 may be a rectangular cavity, and the latching through hole 53a may be formed at the connection between the upper wall and the side wall of the rectangular cavity.

[0065] The cavity wall of the upper cavity 53 may also be provided with a cover lock fixing hole 53b. The cover lock is installed to the cavity wall of the upper cavity 53 by fasteners installed into the cover lock fixing hole 53b, so as to ensure the installation stability of the cover lock.

[0066] In addition, the cavity wall of the upper cavity 53 can also be provided with a cover locking hole 53c. Correspondingly, the cover lock can be provided with a positioning protrusion. The positioning protrusion and the cover locking hole 53c are used to position the cover lock, thereby ensuring the positional accuracy of the cover lock. It should be noted that the cover lock can be positioned first. After positioning is completed, the cover lock can be fastened to the mounting part 50.

[0067] refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the left side beam assembly 10 may include a wheel arch side beam 11, a side beam and side wall connecting plate 12, and a side beam reinforcing plate 13. The side beam and side wall connecting plate 12 are welded and fixed to the wheel arch side beam 11, and a cavity is formed between them. In this way, the mass of the side beam assembly can be reduced while ensuring strength, which is beneficial to achieving a lightweight effect.

[0068] The side beam reinforcing plate 13 is welded and fixed to the side beam and the side wall connecting plate 12 and the wheel cover side beam 11 respectively. At least part of the side beam reinforcing plate 13 is inserted into the cavity and the end of the cavity is sealed. In this way, a closed cavity structure can be formed to improve the strength and rigidity of the left side beam assembly 10 and further improve the load-bearing capacity of the left side beam assembly 10.

[0069] Similarly, the right side beam assembly 20 may include a wheel arch side beam 11, a side beam and side wall connecting plate 12, and a side beam reinforcing plate 13. The side beam and side wall connecting plate 12 are welded and fixed to the wheel arch side beam 11, and a cavity is formed between them. In this way, the mass of the side beam assembly can be reduced while ensuring strength, which is beneficial to achieving a lightweight effect.

[0070] The side beam reinforcing plate 13 is welded and fixed to the side beam and side wall connecting plate 12 and the wheel cover side beam 11 respectively. At least part of the side beam reinforcing plate 13 is inserted into the cavity and the end of the cavity is sealed. In this way, a closed cavity structure can be formed to improve the strength and rigidity of the right side beam assembly 20 and further improve the load-bearing capacity of the right side beam assembly 20. The support member 40 is located in the overlapping area of ​​the side beam reinforcing plate 13 and the side beam and side wall connecting plate 12. Thus, the side beam reinforcing plate 13 can support and reinforce the side beam and side wall connecting plate 12, and the overlapping area of ​​the two can support the support member 40. Finally, the support member 40 supports the crossbeam 30. Based on this, while ensuring the strength and stiffness of the left beam assembly 10 and the right beam assembly 20, the support stability of the crossbeam 30 can be further improved, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity of the crossbeam 30.

[0071] Optionally, the first mounting hole 10a can be opened in the overlapping area of ​​the side beam reinforcing plate 13 and the side beam and side wall connecting plate 12, and pass through the side beam reinforcing plate 13 and the side beam and side wall connecting plate 12 respectively, so that the first fastener can be connected to the side beam reinforcing plate 13 and the side beam and side wall connecting plate 12.

[0072] For example, the edge beam stiffener 13 can be designed as a self-welding structure.

[0073] Based on the aforementioned hood lock mounting structure, this application also discloses a vehicle, which includes the aforementioned hood lock mounting structure. In addition, the vehicle may also include a hood, which can be locked by a hood lock installed on the hood lock mounting structure to ensure the stability of the hood. It should be noted that the structure of the hood lock, the structure of the hood, and the locking method between the hood and the hood lock can all refer to existing technologies and are not specifically limited here.
