Detailed Implementation

[0018] The specific embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0019] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "front," "rear," "left," "right," "up," and "down" generally refer to the direction defined in the driving state of the vehicle, while "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer parts of the relevant components. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only for distinguishing descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0020] In the description of this disclosure, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "setup" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0021] like Figures 1-5 As shown, one aspect of this disclosure provides a connecting bracket for a dashboard crossbeam. The connecting bracket 2 includes a first connecting member 21, a second connecting member 22, and a third connecting member 23. The first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 cooperate to form a mounting portion, which is used to engage with the crossbeam 1. The first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 are located on both sides of the crossbeam 1 with the axis of the crossbeam 1 as the center line. The first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 are arranged opposite to each other. The third connecting member 23 is located between the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22. The two sides of the third connecting member 23 are respectively connected to the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22. The first connecting member 21 and / or the second connecting member 22 are used to connect to the side panel.

[0022] In the above technical solution, both the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 of the connecting bracket 2 can be connected to the crossbeam 1. Moreover, the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 are located on both sides of the crossbeam 1, so that the first connecting member 21 and the crossbeam 1 form a primary connection relationship, and the second connecting member 22 and the crossbeam 1 form a primary connection relationship. This can improve the connection strength between the connecting bracket 2 and the crossbeam 1, improve the modality between the connecting bracket 2 and the crossbeam 1, and avoid problems such as loosening or abnormal noise. In addition, the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 are connected together, so that the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 achieve complementary reinforcement of structural strength, improve the structural strength of the entire connecting bracket 2. When the first connecting member 21 or the second connecting member 22 is connected to the side wall, the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 can be used as a whole to improve the connection strength with the side wall, thereby improving the connection modality with the side wall and avoiding problems such as loosening or abnormal noise.

[0023] The first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 are arranged at a distance from each other, and the third connecting member 23 is located between the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22, thereby connecting the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 through the third connecting member 23. The third connecting member 23 enables the connection of the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22, making them a unified whole. This improves the structural strength of the entire connecting bracket 2 and also enhances the mutual reinforcement of the three components when connecting the first connecting member 21 or the second connecting member 22 to the side panel, thus improving the connection mode with the side panel.

[0024] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the first connecting member 21 includes a first plate 211, and the mounting portion includes a first connecting portion 212. The first plate 211 is provided with the first connecting portion 212, and the first connecting portion 212 is connected to the crossbeam 1. The second connecting member 22 includes a second plate 221, and the mounting portion includes a second connecting portion 222. The second plate 221 is provided with the second connecting portion 222, and the second connecting portion 222 is connected to the crossbeam 1. The first plate 211 and the second plate 221 are interconnected.

[0025] The first plate 211 and the second plate 221 are located close to the crossbeam 1. The first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 222 facilitate connection with the crossbeam 1, ensuring connection strength. Simultaneously, this reduces the size and material usage of the first connecting part 21 and the second connecting part 22, ensuring lightweight construction. It is understood that the first plate 211 and the second plate 221 are located on both sides of the crossbeam 1 with the axis of the crossbeam 1 as the center line, and the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 222 are also located on both sides of the crossbeam 1 with the axis of the crossbeam 1 as the center line, increasing the connection area with the crossbeam 1 and ensuring connection strength.

[0026] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the first connecting member 21 further includes a third plate 213, which is connected to the end of the first plate 211 away from the crossbeam 1. The second connecting member 22 further includes a fourth plate 223, which is connected to the end of the second plate 221 away from the crossbeam 1. The third plate 213 and the fourth plate 223 are spaced apart from each other, and a portion of the third connecting member 23 is located between the third plate 213 and the fourth plate 223, and is connected to the first connecting member 21 and the second connecting member 22 respectively. The third plate 213 or the fourth plate 223 is used to fit against the side panel and be connected by bolts. The end of the first plate 211 away from the third plate 213 is connected to the end of the second plate 221 away from the fourth plate 223.

[0027] The third plate 213 can be integrally formed with the first plate 211, and the fourth plate 223 can be integrally formed with the second plate 221. By setting the third plate 213 and the fourth plate 223, a close fit with the side wall can be achieved, avoiding problems such as abnormal noise caused by contact between the crossbeam 1, the first plate 211, or the second plate 221 and the side wall. The third plate 213 and the first plate 211 are set at an angle, and the fourth plate 223 and the second plate 221 are set at an angle. This allows the third plate 213 to extend away from the first plate 211, and the fourth plate 223 to extend away from the second plate 221, achieving an extended connection and facilitating a close fit with the side wall of the side wall. In some examples, the third plate 213 is perpendicular to the first plate 211, and the fourth plate 223 is perpendicular to the second plate 221.

[0028] The fourth plate 223 includes a first plate segment and a second plate segment, which are angled to create a clearance space between them. This clearance space is used to avoid the reinforcing boss. The reinforcing boss is a reinforcing structure on the side panel.

[0029] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the first plate 211 and the second plate 221 are arranged perpendicularly, with one end of the first plate 211 connected to one end of the second plate 221. A first connecting portion 212 is located at the end of the first plate 211 near the second plate 221, and a second connecting portion 222 is located at the end of the second plate 221 near the first plate 211. This arrangement facilitates the connection of the first connecting portion 212 and the second connecting portion 222 to the crossbeam 1. Simultaneously, the first plate 211 and the second plate 221 are located on opposite sides of the crossbeam 1, and the perpendicular arrangement of the first plate 211 and the second plate 221 reduces space occupation while ensuring structural strength.

[0030] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the first connecting portion 212 is configured as a notch, and the second connecting portion 222 is configured as a recess. The notch and the recess are arranged opposite to each other and enclose an accommodating space, and the crossbeam 1 is connected to the accommodating space. This arrangement facilitates the connection with the crossbeam 1, increases the contact area, thereby improving the connection strength, and at the same time reduces the space occupied by the connection between the first connecting portion 212, the second connecting portion 222 and the crossbeam 1.

[0031] In some examples, the notch is formed by an inward recess on one side of the first plate 211, that is, a recess in the direction away from the second plate 221, so as to accommodate the crossbeam 1. The recessed portion can be a recess formed by an inward recess on one side of the second plate 221 in the direction away from the first plate 211, which can be used to accommodate the crossbeam 1.

[0032] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the end of the first plate 211 near the second plate 221 is recessed inward in a direction away from the second plate 221 to form a notch, and the edge of the notch is set to be arc-shaped so that the notch is constructed as an arc-shaped notch and is used to fit the outer wall of the crossbeam 1.

[0033] The second plate 221 includes a first straight plate segment, an arc-shaped plate segment, and a second straight plate segment. The two ends of the arc-shaped plate segment are respectively connected to one end of the first straight plate segment and one end of the second straight plate segment. The arc-shaped plate segment is configured to bulge outward in a direction away from the first plate 211. The arc-shaped plate segment is configured as a recessed part. The inner wall of the recessed part is configured as an arc transition and is used to fit the outer wall of the crossbeam rod 1.

[0034] The notch and groove are used to clamp and engage the crossbeam 1. This design allows the notch and groove to fit tightly against the side wall of the crossbeam 1, increasing the connection area and providing a limiting effect. This prevents wobbling after the notch and groove are connected to the crossbeam 1, improving stability and thus enhancing the connection mode between the connecting bracket 2 and the crossbeam 1.

[0035] The sidewall of the notch is set as an arc-shaped structure, and the groove wall and bottom of the groove are set as arc-shaped structures. The accommodating space enclosed by the notch and the groove can be a circle, so that the crossbeam rod 1 can be inserted into the accommodating space, thereby improving the connection strength between the connecting bracket 2 and the crossbeam rod 1.

[0036] Alternatively, in another embodiment of this disclosure, the notch may be constructed as a rectangular notch, and the groove may be constructed as a rectangular groove, the notch and the groove being used to accommodate the crossbeam 1.

[0037] Optionally, in another embodiment of this disclosure, the first connecting part 212 is configured as a first semi-circular clamp connected to one side of the first plate 211, and the second connecting part 222 is configured as a second semi-circular clamp connected to one side of the second plate 221. The first and second semi-circular clamps can be combined to form a circular clamp, which can be fitted onto the crossbeam 1. Of course, the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 222 can also be configured as circular holes, through which the crossbeam 1 passes.

[0038] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, a first reinforcing rib is provided on the first plate 211, and the first reinforcing rib is configured as a first protrusion formed on the first plate 211. A second reinforcing rib is provided on the second plate 221, and the second reinforcing rib is configured as a second protrusion formed on the second plate 221. By such configuration, the structural strength of the first plate 211 and the second plate 221 can be increased.

[0039] Alternatively, in another embodiment of this disclosure, the first connector 21 may be constructed as a first frame, and the second connector 22 may be constructed as a second frame, with the first frame and the second frame respectively connected to the crossbeam 1.

[0040] The third connector 23 is located between the third plate 213 and the fourth plate 223. The two sides of the third connector 23 are connected to the third plate 213 and the fourth plate 223 respectively. At the same time, the third connector 23 is located between the first plate 211 and the second plate 221. The two sides of the third connector 23 are also connected to the first plate 211 and the second plate 221 respectively.

[0041] The third connector 23 can be constructed as a fifth plate. The fifth plate is angled to the third plate 213 and the fourth plate 223, and also angled to the first plate 211 and the second plate 221. This reduces the weight of the third connector 23 while ensuring connection strength. In some examples, the fifth plate is perpendicular to the third plate 213, the fourth plate 223, the first plate 211, and the second plate 221, and the side of the fifth plate is welded and fixed to the third plate 213, the fourth plate 223, the first plate 211, and the second plate 221.

[0042] A second aspect of this disclosure also provides a vehicle including a side panel, a crossbeam 1, and the aforementioned dashboard crossbeam. A connecting bracket 2 is connected to the side panel. There are two connecting brackets 2, each connected to one end of the crossbeam 1.

[0043] The mounting part of the connecting bracket 2 is engaged with the crossbeam 1, and the first connecting piece 21 and / or the second connecting piece 22 of the connecting bracket 2 are connected to the side wall.

[0044] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the instrument panel crossbeam further includes a lower support mechanism 3. The lower support mechanism 3 is connected to the middle of the crossbeam rod 1 and extends downward. The end of the lower support mechanism 3 away from the crossbeam rod 1 is used to connect with the front sill bracket. By providing the lower support mechanism 3, the connection with the front sill bracket can be realized, achieving the connection and assembly of the instrument panel crossbeam and the front sill, further improving the stability of the instrument panel crossbeam.

[0045] The lower support mechanism 3 is located in the middle of the crossbeam 1, which reduces the structure connected to the front, reduces the number of structural parts and assembly connection points, so that the instrument panel can be connected to the instrument panel crossbeam before being installed into the cab, thus reducing the need for front connection, thereby reducing assembly complexity and improving assembly efficiency.

[0046] Optionally, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the lower support mechanism 3 includes a support frame 31 and a support rod 32. The support frame 31 is connected to the middle of the crossbeam 1. One end of the support rod 32 is connected to the support frame 31. The support rod 32 extends forward and downward. The other end of the support rod 32 is used to connect to the front tread plate bracket. The support rod 32 is constructed as an arc-shaped rod.

[0047] The support frame 31 is integrally formed with the middle part of the crossbeam 1. The support frame 31 extends radially along the crossbeam 1 and connects to one end of the support rod 32, facilitating easy assembly. The support rod 32 extends forward and downward, allowing for connection to the front sill bracket. Its curved shape allows it to be positioned close to the front sill, ensuring space avoidance and preventing encroachment on the passenger compartment. It should be noted that "forward" refers to the front of the vehicle in the longitudinal direction, and "downward" refers to the lower part of the vehicle in the vertical direction.

[0048] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this disclosure is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of this disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of this disclosure.

[0049] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, this disclosure will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0050] Furthermore, various different embodiments of this disclosure can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of this disclosure, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed in this disclosure.
