Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular relates to an integrated brake pipe mounting structure. Background Technology

[0002] The driving range of new energy vehicles is highly dependent on the energy carried by the battery. The battery itself is very heavy, typically accounting for 20%-30% or even more of the total vehicle weight. Reducing the vehicle weight significantly reduces the energy required to overcome rolling resistance, air resistance, and acceleration inertia. Studies show that for every 10% reduction in vehicle weight, the driving range can typically increase by 6%-8%. For an electric vehicle with a range of 500 kilometers, a weight reduction of 100 kilograms could translate to an increase of 30-50 kilometers in actual driving range.

[0003] Automotive brake hoses (commonly known as brake lines) are components used in automotive braking systems. Their main function is to transmit braking medium during vehicle braking, ensuring that braking force is transmitted to the brake shoes or brake calipers to generate braking force, thereby making braking effective at all times. They are an indispensable component in the braking process of a car. With the development of the times, the automotive industry is also developing faster and faster, so people's demand for brake hoses has also increased significantly.

[0004] However, due to the relatively soft nature of brake hoses, in order to prevent them from hanging too low, they need to be installed at multiple locations on the vehicle frame. Existing brake hoses are mounted on the vehicle body at both ends and in the middle using multiple metal mounting brackets, which inevitably leads to excessive weight of the vehicle body and affects the vehicle's range. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated brake hose mounting structure to solve the problem that conventional brake hoses are mounted on the vehicle body through metal mounting brackets at both ends and the middle, resulting in excessive overall vehicle weight.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An integrated brake hose mounting structure includes a first flexible hose, a second flexible hose, a rigid hose, and a connector, wherein:

[0008] The first end of the rigid tube is connected to the connection end of the first flexible tube and communicates with the first flexible tube. The second end of the rigid tube is connected to the connection end of the second flexible tube and communicates with the second flexible tube. The first flexible tube, the second flexible tube and the rigid tube together form a channel for brake fluid to flow through.

[0009] The first end of the connector is riveted and fixed to the connecting end of the first hose, and the second end of the connector is riveted and fixed to the connecting end of the second hose. The connector is detachably mounted on the vehicle frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the first hose has a first connector at its connecting end, the second hose has a second connector at its connecting end, the first end of the connector is riveted to the first connector, and the second end of the connector is riveted to the second connector.

[0011] Furthermore, both the first connector and the second connector are made of metal.

[0012] Furthermore, the first connector has a first rivet head protruding from the side near the rigid tube, and the first end of the connector has a first rivet hole. The first rivet head is adapted to the first rivet hole, and the first rivet head passes through the first rivet hole and is riveted to the first rivet hole by pressing.

[0013] Furthermore, the second connector has a second rivet head protruding from the side near the rigid tube, and the second end of the connector has a second rivet hole. The second rivet head is adapted to the second rivet hole, and the second rivet head passes through the second rivet hole and is riveted to the second rivet hole by pressing.

[0014] Furthermore, the connecting seat is provided with a first mounting part and a second mounting part. The first mounting part is provided corresponding to a first mounting position of the vehicle frame, and the second mounting part is provided corresponding to a second mounting position of the vehicle frame. The first mounting part is a first through hole, and a first mounting hole is provided at the first mounting position. The shank of the bolt passes through the first through hole and is tightened into the first mounting hole, so that the head of the bolt presses against the connecting seat. Thus, the connecting seat is installed at the first mounting position of the vehicle frame through the first mounting part. The second mounting part is a second through hole, and a second mounting hole is provided at the second mounting position. The shank of the bolt passes through the second through hole and is tightened into the second mounting hole, so that the head of the bolt presses against the connecting seat. Thus, the connecting seat is installed at the second mounting position of the vehicle frame through the second mounting part.

[0015] Furthermore, the two ends of the rigid tube are bent according to a preset shape to fix the installation paths of the first flexible tube and the second flexible tube at preset positions.

[0016] Furthermore, both the first connector and the second connector are cylindrical in shape.

[0017] Furthermore, the first connector is fixedly connected to the first end of the rigid tube by riveting, so that at least one concave first annular groove is formed on the side wall of the first connector, and multiple first reinforcing parts are riveted in each first annular groove at intervals. The bottom of each first reinforcing part is located at the bottom of the first annular groove, and the two ends of the first reinforcing part extend to the edge of the first annular groove.

[0018] The second connector is fixedly connected to the second end of the rigid tube by riveting, so that at least one concave second annular groove is formed on the side wall of the second connector. Multiple second reinforcing parts are riveted into each second annular groove at intervals. The bottom of each second reinforcing part is located at the bottom of the second annular groove, and the two ends of the second reinforcing part extend to the edge of the second annular groove.

[0019] Furthermore, the first connector head is riveted to form two first annular grooves, which are spaced apart along the axial direction of the first connector head. The second connector head is riveted to form two second annular grooves, which are spaced apart along the axial direction of the second connector head.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the integrated brake pipe mounting structure are as follows:

[0021] 1) By installing the first hose and the second hose at both ends of the rigid tube respectively, the first end of the connector is riveted to the connecting end of the first hose, and the second end of the connector is riveted to the connecting end of the second hose. The connector is installed on the frame, eliminating the need to install connectors at both ends and in the middle of each hose, which greatly reduces the overall weight of the brake hose.

[0022] 2) By setting a first connector at the first hose connection end and a second connector at the second hose connection end, and riveting and fixing both ends of the connector seat to these two connector heads respectively, the first hose and the second hose can be stably connected through the connector seat, further enhancing the overall connection reliability of the brake pipe.

[0023] 3) By setting a first rivet head on the first connector head and a second rivet head on the second connector head, and opening a first rivet hole and a second rivet hole on the connector seat, the first rivet head and the second rivet head are riveted and fixed on the connector seat by pressing, thus realizing a tight connection between the connector seat and the first connector head and the second connector head, effectively avoiding connection failure due to loosening during use, and ensuring a stable connection between the brake pipes.

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 3As shown, in this embodiment, an integrated brake hose mounting structure includes a first hose 10, a second hose 20, a rigid pipe 30, and a connector 40. The first end of the rigid pipe 30 is connected to and communicates with the first hose 10, and the second end of the rigid pipe 30 is connected to and communicates with the second hose 20. The first hose 10, the second hose 20, and the rigid pipe 30 together form a channel for brake fluid to flow through. The first end of the connector 40 is riveted to and fixed to the first hose 10, and the second end of the connector 40 is riveted to and fixed to the second hose 20. The connector 40 is detachably mounted on a vehicle frame (not shown in the figure).

[0031] As can be seen, by installing the first hose 10 and the second hose 20 at both ends of the rigid tube 30, riveting the first end of the connector 40 to the connecting end of the first hose 10, and riveting the second end of the connector 40 to the connecting end of the second hose 20, and installing the connector 40 on the frame, it is not necessary to set the connector 40 at both ends and in the middle of each hose, which greatly reduces the overall weight of the brake pipe.

[0032] In one embodiment, the first hose 10 is provided with a first connector 50 at its connecting end, the second hose 20 is provided with a second connector 60 at its connecting end, the first end of the connector 40 is riveted and fixed to the first connector 50, and the second end of the connector 40 is riveted and fixed to the second connector 60.

[0033] As can be seen, by setting a first connector 50 at the connection end of the first hose 10 and a second connector 60 at the connection end of the second hose 20, and riveting and fixing both ends of the connector 40 to these two connectors respectively, the first hose 10 and the second hose 20 can be stably connected through the connector 40, further enhancing the overall connection reliability of the brake pipe.

[0034] In one embodiment, both the first connector 50 and the second connector 60 are made of metal.

[0035] Specifically, both the first connector 50 and the second connector 60 are made of aluminum alloy.

[0036] It is evident that both the first connector 50 and the second connector 60 are made of metal, which greatly improves the wear resistance of the connection ends of the first hose 10 and the second hose 20, and significantly extends the service life of the connectors.

[0037] In one embodiment, a first rivet head 51 protrudes from the side of the first connector 50 near the rigid tube 30, and a first rivet hole 41 is opened at the first end of the connector 40. The first rivet head 51 is adapted to the first rivet hole 41, and the first rivet head 51 passes through the first rivet hole 41 and is riveted to the first rivet hole 41 by pressing.

[0038] In one embodiment, a second rivet head 61 protrudes from the side of the second connector 60 near the rigid tube 30, and a second rivet hole 42 is opened at the second end of the connector 40. The second rivet head 61 is adapted to the second rivet hole 42, and the second rivet head 61 passes through the second rivet hole 42 and is riveted to the second rivet hole 42 by pressing.

[0039] As can be seen, by setting a first rivet head 51 on the first connector 50, setting a second rivet head 61 on the second connector 60, and opening a first rivet hole 41 and a second rivet hole 42 on the connector seat 40, the first rivet head 51 and the second rivet head 61 are riveted and fixed on the connector seat 40 by pressing, a tight connection between the connector seat 40 and the first connector 50 and the second connector 60 is achieved, effectively avoiding connection failure due to loosening during use, and ensuring a stable connection between the brake pipes.

[0040] In one embodiment, the connecting seat 40 is provided with a first mounting part and a second mounting part. The first mounting part is set at a first mounting position of the frame, and the second mounting part is set at a second mounting position of the frame. The first mounting part is a first through hole 43, and a first mounting hole is opened at the first mounting position. The shank of the bolt passes through the first through hole 43 and is tightened into the first mounting hole, so that the head of the bolt presses against the connecting seat 40. The connecting seat 40 is then installed at the first mounting position of the frame through the first mounting part. The second mounting part is a second through hole 44, and a second mounting hole is opened at the second mounting position. The shank of the bolt passes through the second through hole 44 and is tightened into the second mounting hole, so that the head of the bolt presses against the connecting seat 40. The connecting seat 40 is then installed at the second mounting position of the frame through the second mounting part.

[0041] Specifically, both the first and second mounting holes are threaded holes.

[0042] As can be seen, by setting the first through hole 43 and the second through hole 44 corresponding to the frame mounting position on the connecting seat 40, and cooperating with the bolts to pass through the through holes and tighten them with the frame mounting holes, the bolt heads press against the connecting seat 40, thus achieving a stable installation of the connecting seat 40 and the frame. This not only ensures the reliability of the connecting seat 40 on the frame, but also enhances the stability of the overall installation structure through two-point positioning.

[0043] In one implementation, the two ends of the rigid tube 30 are bent according to a preset shape to fix the installation paths of the first flexible tube 10 and the second flexible tube 20 according to a preset position.

[0044] Specifically, the rigid pipe 30 includes a first horizontal pipe 31, a second horizontal pipe 32, a first bent pipe 33, a second bent pipe 34, and a vertical pipe 35, wherein the first horizontal pipe 31 extends along a first direction. Figure 1 In the X direction, the first end of the first horizontal pipe 31 is connected to and communicates with the first bent pipe 33, the first end of the vertical pipe 35 is vertically arranged and its first end is connected to the second end of the first bent pipe 33, the second end of the vertical pipe 35 is connected to and communicates with the first flexible pipe 10, the second end of the first horizontal pipe 31 is connected to and communicates with the first end of the second bent pipe 34, and the second horizontal pipe 32 is along the second direction ( Figure 1 Extending in the Y direction, the first end of the second horizontal tube 32 is connected to the second end of the second bent tube 34 and is in communication with the second bent tube 34, and the second end of the second horizontal tube 32 is connected to the second flexible tube 20 and is in communication with the second flexible tube 20.

[0045] As can be seen, bending both ends of the rigid tube 30 into a preset shape achieves the preset position fixation of the installation path of the first flexible tube 10 and the second flexible tube 20. This not only avoids damage to the flexible tubes during installation and use due to random shaking, tangling or interference with other components, but also occupies little space and has a reasonable layout.

[0046] In one implementation, both the first connector 50 and the second connector 60 are cylindrical in shape.

[0047] It can be seen that by setting the first connector 50 and the second connector 60 as a whole cylindrical structure, it is easier to connect the connector with the hose and the rigid pipe 30, and the structural rationality of the connection part is improved.

[0048] In one embodiment, the first connector 50 is fixedly connected to the first end of the rigid tube 30 by riveting, so that at least one concave first annular groove is formed on the side wall of the first connector 50, and a plurality of first reinforcing parts are riveted in each first annular groove at intervals, the bottom of each first reinforcing part is disposed at the bottom of the first annular groove, and the two ends of the first reinforcing part extend to the edge of the first annular groove; the second connector 60 is fixedly connected to the second end of the rigid tube 30 by riveting, so that at least one concave second annular groove 62 is formed on the side wall of the second connector 60, and a plurality of second reinforcing parts 620 are riveted in each second annular groove 62 at intervals, the bottom of each second reinforcing part 620 is disposed at the bottom of the second annular groove 62, and the two ends of the second reinforcing part 620 extend to the edge of the second annular groove 62.

[0049] Specifically, both the first and second reinforcing sections 620 are reinforcing ribs.

[0050] Specifically, the cross-section of the reinforcing rib is a rectangular surface that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom.

[0051] As can be seen, the first connector 50 is fixedly connected to the first end of the rigid tube 30 by riveting, forming a first annular groove and a first reinforcing part. The second connector 60 is fixedly connected to the second end of the rigid tube 30 by riveting, forming a second annular groove 62 and a second reinforcing part 620, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the first connector 50 and the second connector 60.

[0052] In one embodiment, two first annular grooves are riveted to form the first connector 50, and the two first annular grooves are spaced apart along the axial direction of the first connector 50. Two second annular grooves 62 are riveted to form the second connector 60, and the two second annular grooves 62 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the second connector 60.

[0053] As can be seen, the two first annular grooves and the two second annular grooves 62 are distributed at intervals along the axial direction of the connector. The spaced annular grooves and the reinforcing parts further improve the structural strength of the connector and enhance its overall load-bearing capacity and durability.

[0054] During assembly of the aforementioned integrated brake hose installation structure: First, the first end of the rigid pipe 30 is connected to the connecting end of the first flexible hose 10, ensuring communication between the first end of the rigid pipe 30 and the first flexible hose 10. The second end of the rigid pipe 30 is then connected to the connecting end of the second flexible hose 20, ensuring communication between the second end of the rigid pipe 30 and the second flexible hose 20. The first flexible hose 10, the second flexible hose 20, and the rigid pipe 30 together form a channel for brake fluid flow. Then, the first riveting head 51 is inserted into the first riveting hole 41, and the first end of the connecting seat 40 is securely riveted to the first connecting head 50 by press-fit riveting. The second riveting head 61 is inserted into the second riveting hole 42, and the second end of the connecting seat 40 is securely riveted to the first connecting head 50 by press-fit riveting. Finally, align the first through hole 43 on the connector 40 with the first mounting hole at the first mounting position on the frame, so that the shank of the bolt passes through the first through hole 43 and is tightened into the first mounting hole, with the bolt head pressing against the connector 40. The connector 40 is then installed at the first mounting position on the frame through the cooperation of the bolt, the first through hole 43, and the first mounting hole. Align the second through hole 44 on the connector 40 with the second mounting hole at the second mounting position on the frame, so that the shank of the bolt passes through the second through hole 44 and is tightened into the second mounting hole, with the bolt head pressing against the connector 40. The connector 40 is then installed at the second mounting position on the frame through the cooperation of the bolt, the second through hole 44, and the second mounting hole.
