Detailed Implementation

[0026] The following description provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing various features of the present invention. The elements and arrangements described in the specific examples below are only for concise expression of the present invention and are merely examples, not intended to limit the present invention.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] This utility model provides a front cabin wiring harness bracket. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the front cabin wiring harness bracket in an embodiment of this utility model is shown. Figure 1In the middle, the front cabin wiring harness bracket includes a bracket body 1, the bracket body 1 includes a first horizontal side wall 101, a second horizontal side wall 102 and a vertical side wall 103 connecting the first horizontal side wall 101 and the second horizontal side wall 102. The first horizontal side wall 101, the second horizontal side wall 102 and the vertical side wall 103 form a semi-enclosed storage cavity, which is used to store the wiring harness and guide the wiring harness.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, this application eliminates the cover and does not fully cover the wire harness. The vertical sidewall 103 is provided with a number of binding through holes arranged at intervals along the direction of the storage cavity. When the wire harness is stored in the storage cavity, the wire harness is bound by using a binding strap through the corresponding binding through hole group, so that the wire harness is kept in close contact with the inner wall of the storage cavity, thereby achieving the limitation and fixation of the wire harness. In actual use, the wire harness is also wrapped with cloth tape on the outside, thereby meeting the protection requirements of the front cabin wire harness.

[0030] During use, the vertical sidewall 103 is arranged vertically. One end of the vertical sidewall 103 is connected to the pine tree clip 2, and the other end of the pine tree clip 2 extends in the direction away from the storage cavity. The other end of the pine tree clip 2 is used to engage with the sheet metal hole of the longitudinal beam. By fixing the vertical sidewall 103, the overall fixing of the front cabin wiring harness bracket of this application is achieved, changing the conventional flat wiring harness to a vertical form.

[0031] Meanwhile, the first horizontal sidewall 101 is provided with a connecting part 3 on the side facing away from the storage cavity. The connecting part 3 has a fixing through hole 301, which forms a threaded connection with the thermal management bracket through the fixing through hole 301, thereby further realizing the overall fixation of the front cabin wiring harness bracket of this application and ensuring the stability and firmness of the front cabin wiring harness bracket after assembly.

[0032] The front compartment wiring harness bracket proposed in this application is made of polyamide 66 material to meet the operational requirements of a non-engine operating environment temperature of 105°C in the front compartment. A storage cavity for housing the wiring harness is formed by the first horizontal sidewall 101, the second horizontal sidewall 102, and the vertical sidewall 103. The storage cavity has a semi-enclosed structure. By using cable ties through the binding holes to limit the wiring harness, the consistency of the wiring harness is improved, eliminating the need for a cover plate and reducing the overall weight and production cost of the device. Simultaneously, the pine tree clips 2 and the connecting part 3 are connected to other structures of the vehicle body to meet the requirements for stable assembly. The wiring harness, arranged in the storage cavity, maintains a gap with the sharp edges of the front compartment sheet metal and provides protection, completely solving the problem of sharp edge interference caused by the limited space for the main wiring harness.

[0033] Furthermore, based on the fixing of the wire harness by the cable tie and the bracket body 1, the wire harness is covered by the bracket body 1 from three directions, and the wire harness forms an outward convex shape at the opening, thereby satisfying the applicability of the front compartment wire harness bracket to wire harnesses of different sizes. At the same time, the connection method with other structures of the vehicle body is changed by the pine tree clips 2, which improves the flexibility and convenience of the device assembly process and reduces the overall weight and production cost.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first horizontal sidewall 101 is provided with a branch port that connects to the storage cavity, so that the wire harness in the storage cavity can be branched and connected to the outside, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0035] Meanwhile, the first horizontal sidewall 101 is connected to the guide tube 4, which is coaxially arranged with the branch port. The cross-section of the guide tube 4 adopts a semi-circular structure, and the end of the guide tube 4 is connected to a semi-circular ring to avoid damage to the outer wall of the wire harness caused by the inner wall of the guide tube 4.

[0036] The side wall of the bracket body 1 facing away from the storage cavity is provided with several reinforcing ribs 5. The reinforcing ribs 5 include a first reinforcing rib and a second reinforcing rib. The first reinforcing rib is arranged along the direction of extension of the storage cavity, and the second reinforcing rib is arranged perpendicular to the first reinforcing rib, so as to improve the overall structural rigidity of the bracket body 1 and improve the protection capability of the front cabin wiring harness bracket for the wiring harness.

[0037] exist Figure 2 In the example shown, in order to improve the tightness of the fit between the inner wall of the storage cavity and the wire harness, and to avoid damage to the outer wall of the wire harness caused by the inner wall of the storage cavity, the connecting edges of the first horizontal sidewall 101, the second horizontal sidewall 102, and the vertical sidewall 103 facing the storage cavity are all rounded, so that the cross-section of the storage cavity forms a curved surface structure.

[0038] In this embodiment, during the use of the front cabin wiring harness bracket, in order to ensure the limiting effect of the binding strap combined with the bracket body 1 on the wiring harness, the widths of the first horizontal sidewall 101 and the second horizontal sidewall 102 are limited to be the same, and the width of the vertical sidewall 103 is greater than the width of the first horizontal sidewall 101, so that the contact area between the vertical sidewall 103 and the wiring harness is greater than the contact area between the first horizontal sidewall 101 or the second horizontal sidewall 102 and the wiring harness.

[0039] In this embodiment, the vertical sidewall 103 is provided with at least three binding through holes spaced apart along the direction extending from the receiving cavity. Figure 3 In the example shown, the vertical sidewall 103 is provided with three sets of binding through holes. These three sets of binding through holes are arranged at equal intervals and are located at the front, middle, and rear sections of the support body 1, respectively. This allows for the binding of the wire harness stored within the receiving cavity at the front, middle, and rear positions, ensuring the stability of the wire harness fixation. Of course, the number of binding through hole sets is not a limitation of the scope of this utility model; the number of binding through hole sets can also be four, five, etc.

[0040] Correspondingly, the binding through hole group includes at least three through holes 6. The binding through hole group includes three through holes 6, and the three through holes 6 are arranged vertically in an upper and lower position. For ease of explanation, the three through holes 6 of the unified binding through hole group are set as upper through hole, middle through hole and lower through hole, and the spacing between the upper through hole and the middle through hole is consistent with the spacing between the middle through hole and the lower through hole.

[0041] In the actual use of the front cabin wiring harness bracket of this application, several wiring harnesses are divided into two bundles by tape or cable ties. The two bundles are arranged in an upper and lower position in the storage cavity. Cable ties are used to fix the upper bundle through the upper and middle through holes, and cable ties are used to fix the lower bundle through the middle and lower through holes.

[0042] Although the present invention has been illustrated using three through holes 6 as an example, it is not limited thereto. The number and arrangement of the through holes 6 can adopt various connection methods. Those skilled in the art can comprehensively consider the connection principle of the present invention and the actual application situation, as long as the principle of the present invention can be achieved.

[0043] refer to Figure 4 The side wall of the connecting part 3 is connected to one side of the support part 7, and the other side of the support part 7 is connected to the first horizontal side wall 101, so that the support part 7 provides support for the connecting part 3, strengthens the connection between the connecting part 3 and the first horizontal side wall 101, and improves the integrity of the first horizontal side wall 101 and the connecting part 3.

[0044] In this embodiment, the bracket body 1 presents an "L" shaped structure and is divided into a front end and a rear end according to the direction of the extension of the cavity. The center lines of the front end and the rear end form a predetermined angle.

[0045] In scenarios where front-cabin wiring harness brackets are used, there are often requirements to avoid the vehicle body structure and to steer the wiring harness. For example, the angle between the centerlines of the front end and the rear end is 145°, and the length of the rear end extends by 32.5mm. When the wiring harness is stored in the storage cavity, the storage cavity guides the wiring harness to change its direction, thereby avoiding the vehicle body structure, meeting the steering requirements, and protecting the wiring harness.
