Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy vehicle technology, and in particular to a sensor bracket for new energy vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] New energy vehicles use various types of sensors to monitor various parameters of the vehicle in real time. Sensor brackets are needed to install these sensors.

[0003] Common sensor brackets typically use flat or right-angled metal brackets and are fixed to the vehicle body with bolts. However, vehicle body structures are often not regular shapes, and the installation space is often small, making it inconvenient to fix the sensor brackets. At the same time, due to space limitations, it is not convenient to assist in fixing the sensor when using bolts to tighten it, making it difficult for personnel to operate, increasing the time required for bolt hole positioning, and affecting installation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a sensor bracket for new energy vehicles.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A sensor bracket for new energy vehicles includes a locking plate and a bracket plate. The locking plate has an arc-shaped edge. An arc-shaped connecting block is fixedly connected to one side of the locking plate. The bracket plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the arc-shaped connecting block. A first sliding groove and a second sliding groove are opened on the side wall of the bracket plate away from the locking plate. A clamping mechanism including a first slider and a second slider is slidably connected in the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove. A first slider is slidably connected in the first groove. A hollow groove is opened on one side of the first slider. A second slider is slidably connected in the second groove. Both the first slider and the second slider are convex-shaped structures. The size of the second slider is smaller than that of the first slider. The end of the second slider that is close to the first slider is slidably connected in the hollow groove.

[0006] Preferably, a right-angle plate is fixedly connected to the top of the locking plate, and the arc-shaped connecting block is at a 90-degree angle.

[0007] Preferably, the locking plate has a first bolt hole on the side away from the support plate, and the right-angle plate has a second bolt hole on its top.

[0008] Preferably, the support plate is inclined, and two third bolt holes are symmetrically opened at the bottom of the support plate.

[0009] Preferably, a sensor is bolted to the side of the bracket plate away from the locking plate via two third bolt holes, and the sensor is electrically connected to the vehicle controller.

[0010] Preferably, the opposite ends of the first slider and the second slider are both fixedly connected to clamping blocks, and the second slide groove sidewall on one side of the clamping block of the second slider is provided with a movable groove.

[0011] Preferably, guide rods are fixedly connected to the center of both ends of the first and second slides, and springs are sleeved at both ends of the guide rods, with the springs respectively abutting against the side wall of the clamping block and the side wall of the first or second slide.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This utility model, by setting a locking plate and a bracket plate, fixes the locking plate, arc-shaped connecting block and bracket plate as an integral bracket in the narrow and irregular vehicle body space. The bracket plate is at a right angle to the locking plate and is inclined relative to the locking plate. In order to meet the installation requirements of the irregular space, the bracket can be closely attached to the vehicle body, thereby saving installation space and making the overall vehicle body structure compact. At the same time, it can reduce sensor vibration during use and ensure the stability of sensor signal transmission.

[0013] This invention features a clamping mechanism for assisting in the installation of sensors. By reversing the two clamping blocks, the first and second sliders move in opposite directions, sliding along the guide rod and compressing the two springs. The sensor is then placed between the two clamping blocks, and the clamping blocks are released, clamping the sensor on both sides. This assists in fixing the sensor, which is then secured with bolts. This design avoids the limitations of confined spaces that could affect installation efficiency. Furthermore, the movable and adjustable spacing of the clamping blocks can meet the needs of assisting in the installation of sensors of different specifications, making it highly practical.

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0017] Reference Figure 1-5 A sensor bracket for new energy vehicles includes a locking plate 1 and a bracket plate 6. The locking plate 1 has an arc-shaped edge. An arc-shaped connecting block 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the locking plate 1. The bracket plate 6 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the arc-shaped connecting block 5. A first sliding groove 9 and a second sliding groove 10 that communicate with each other are opened on the side wall of the bracket plate 6 away from the locking plate 1. A clamping mechanism 12 including a first slider 13 and a second slider 15 is slidably connected in the first sliding groove 9 and the second sliding groove 10. A first slider 13 is slidably connected within the first groove 9. A hollow groove 14 is formed on one side of the first slider 13. A second slider 15 is slidably connected within the second groove 10. Both the first slider 13 and the second slider 15 have a convex structure. The size of the second slider 15 is smaller than that of the first slider 13. The end of the second slider 15 closest to the first slider 13 is slidably connected within the hollow groove 14. To accommodate the limited space within the vehicle body, the sensor 8 is mounted using a bracket. A single bracket consisting of the locking plate 1, the arc-shaped connecting block 5, and the bracket plate 6 is fixed within the narrow, irregularly shaped space of the vehicle body. The bracket plate 6 is perpendicular to the locking plate 1 and is tilted relative to the locking plate 1. This design allows the bracket to fit snugly against the vehicle body, saving installation space and resulting in a compact overall vehicle structure. It also reduces vibration of the sensor 8 during use, ensuring the stability of the sensor 8's signal transmission. The clamping mechanism 12 is used when mounting the sensor 8. The auxiliary fixing is achieved by reversing the two clamping blocks 16, causing the first slider 13 and the second slider 15 to move in the opposite direction and slide along the guide rod 11, compressing the two springs 17. At this time, the sensor 8 is placed between the two clamping blocks 16 and the clamping blocks 16 are released so that the two clamping blocks 16 clamp the two sides of the sensor 8, which can assist in fixing the sensor 8. Then, it is tightened with bolts. This method is not easily limited by narrow spaces and thus does not affect the installation efficiency. Moreover, since the clamping blocks 16 are movable and the spacing is adjustable, it can meet the auxiliary fixing and installation needs of sensors 8 of different specifications, which is highly practical.

[0018] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a right-angle plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the locking plate 1, and the arc-shaped connecting block 5 is at a 90-degree angle. The connection of the arc-shaped connecting block 5 makes the locking plate 1 and the bracket plate 6 at a 90-degree angle, and the right-angle plate 3 is used for the fixed connection between the top of the locking plate 1 and the vehicle body, making the locking plate 1 itself stable and shock-resistant.

[0019] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the locking plate 1 has a first bolt hole 2 on the side away from the bracket plate 6, and the right-angle plate 3 has a second bolt hole 4 on its top. The first bolt hole 2 and the second bolt hole 4 are used to fix the locking plate 1 in both horizontal and vertical directions.

[0020] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the support plate 6 is inclined, and two third bolt holes 7 are symmetrically opened at the bottom of the support plate 6. The two third bolt holes 7 are used to install the sensor 8.

[0021] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a sensor 8 is bolted to the side of the bracket plate 6 away from the locking plate 1 through two third bolt holes 7. The sensor 8 is electrically connected to the vehicle controller. The side of the locking plate 1 away from the bracket plate 6 is flush with the vehicle body, and the sensor 8 is installed through the extension of the bracket plate 6.

[0022] As a technical optimization of this utility model, clamping blocks 16 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the first slider 13 and the second slider 15. A movable groove is formed on the side wall of the second slide groove 10 on one side of the clamping block 16 of the second slider 15. Since the size of the second slider 15 is smaller than that of the first slider 13 and the second slider 15 is slidably connected to the hollow groove 14 of the first slider 13, the size of the first slide groove 9 is actually larger than that of the second slide groove 10. Figure 4 As can be seen, the first slide groove 9 protrudes through the side wall of the support plate 6, while the second slide groove 10 is hidden inside the support plate 6. Therefore, a movable groove needs to be opened for the movement of the connecting section between the second slider 15 and the clamping block 16. At the same time, the length of the movable groove is the stroke of the second slider 15.

[0023] As a technical optimization of this utility model, guide rods 11 are fixedly connected to the center of both ends of the first slide groove 9 and the second slide groove 10. Springs 17, with their ends respectively abutting against the side walls of the clamping blocks 16 and the side walls of the first slide groove 9 or the second slide groove 10, are sleeved on both ends of the guide rods 11. When the two clamping blocks 16 are reversed, the two clamping blocks 16 push the two springs 17 to compress. After the clamping blocks 16 are released, the springs 17 lose their force and return to their original position, thus pushing the two clamping blocks 16 to clamp the sensor 8.

[0024] In use, the locking plate 1, the arc-shaped connecting block 5, and the bracket plate 6 are first aligned with the corresponding holes at the irregular installation position on the vehicle body. Bolts are used to fix the locking plate 1 in both the horizontal and vertical directions at the first bolt hole 2 and the second bolt hole 4. After the bracket is locked, the installer manually moves the two clamping blocks 16 in the opposite direction, causing the first slider 13 and the second slider 15 to move in the opposite direction along the first slide groove 9 and the second slide groove 10 respectively, while sliding along the guide rod 11 and finally compressing the two springs 17. At this time, the installer can place the sensor 8 between the two clamping blocks 16, release the clamping blocks 16, and the springs 17 will lose force and reset, which can push the two clamping blocks 16 to clamp the sensor 8. Then, the sensor 8 can be installed by bolts through the two third bolt holes 7.

[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
