Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of engine technology, and in particular to a pipe clamp structure that can be used to simultaneously fix wire harnesses and hoses. Background Technology

[0002] With social development and the improvement of people's living standards, automobiles have become an important means of transportation. Nowadays, wiring harnesses, as a crucial component of automotive electronic control systems, are used to connect all electrical appliances, providing power, grounding, and signal transmission between them. Therefore, the assembly of wiring harnesses in vehicles, especially their secure fixing, is particularly important. If the wiring harness is not securely fixed, it may rub against metal parts due to vehicle vibrations, causing damage to the wiring harness sheath, leading to malfunction of electrical components, and in severe cases, even causing vehicle fires. Similarly, if the hoses are not securely fixed, they are prone to wear, resulting in leaks of water and oil.

[0003] Currently, existing wiring harnesses and hoses are typically secured using hose clamps. The purpose of hose clamps is to fix various hoses and wiring harnesses. During vehicle movement, hose clamps constrain the position of the hoses and wiring harnesses, allowing them to function normally without interference. However, with the diversification of vehicle functions, the required hoses and wiring harnesses are becoming increasingly diverse. This results in less and less space for fixing hoses and wiring harnesses, leaving insufficient space to fix them separately. If hose clamps and wiring harness clamps are stacked together for assembly, it can easily lead to assembly difficulties, increased costs, and a greater risk of bolt loosening. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a clamp structure that can be used to fix wire harnesses and hoses simultaneously. By integrating the fixing of wire harnesses and hoses into a single clamp structure, the problem of insufficient space to fix hoses and wire harnesses separately can be solved.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, one or more embodiments of the present invention provide the following technical solutions: A clamp structure for simultaneously fixing wire harnesses and hoses includes a fixing clamp. One side of the fixing clamp is vertically and smoothly connected to a wire harness clamp and a hose clamp from top to bottom. The wire harness clamp and the hose clamp are arranged in opposite directions. The fixing clamp, the wire harness clamp, and the hose clamp form a T-shaped structure. The side of the wire harness clamp away from the fixing clamp is connected to the wire harness assembly, and the side of the hose clamp away from the fixing clamp is connected to the hose assembly.

[0006] Furthermore, the fixing clamp is triangular in shape, with the hypotenuse of the triangle extending to the lower side of the hose clamp.

[0007] Furthermore, a first mounting hole is provided on the side of the fixing clamp away from the wire harness clamp.

[0008] Furthermore, a first slot is provided on the side of the wire harness clamp away from the fixing tube clamp.

[0009] Furthermore, a second slot is provided on the side of the hose clamp that is away from the fixed hose clamp.

[0010] Furthermore, the wire harness assembly includes a wire harness and a plastic tube clamp. One end of the plastic tube clamp is fitted onto the outside of the wire harness via an interference fit, and the other end is snapped into the first slot of the wire harness clamp portion.

[0011] Furthermore, the hose assembly includes a hose and a clamping strap, the clamping strap being sleeved on the outside of the hose and fixed to the surface of the hose by tightening.

[0012] Furthermore, the clips on the cable tie are adapted to the second slot of the hose clamp, and the clips on the cable tie are engaged in the second slot.

[0013] Furthermore, the first slot is a triangular slot structure that can fix the plastic tube clamp of the wire harness.

[0014] Furthermore, the second slot is a circular slot structure that can fix the cable ties and clips. Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following advantages and beneficial effects: 1. The fixing clamp of this utility model is provided with a wire harness clamping part and a hose clamping part. The wire harness clamping part can fix the wire harness assembly to the fixing clamp, and the hose clamping part can fix the hose assembly to the fixing clamp. In this way, the wire harness and hose can be fixedly integrated into a single clamp structure, which greatly improves the space utilization rate and is especially suitable for scenarios where the wire harness and hose are close to each other.

[0015] 2. This utility model integrates the first slot and the second slot into a fixed pipe clamp, which solves the problem of difficulty in controlling the assembly angle when the wire harness fixing bracket and the hose fixing bracket are stacked together and fastened with bolts.

[0016] 3. The fixed pipe clamp of this utility model can be processed from only one steel plate. No welding is required during the processing and the processing is relatively simple, which effectively reduces the cost and the number of parts.

[0020] It should be noted that the following detailed description is exemplary and intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains; it should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention.

[0021] Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0022] Example 1: like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a clamp structure that can be used to simultaneously fix wire harnesses and hoses, including a fixing clamp 3. One side of the fixing clamp 3 is connected to the wire harness clamp 10 and the hose clamp 11 from top to bottom through a vertical smooth transition. The fixing clamp 3, the wire harness clamp 10, and the hose clamp 11 form a T-shaped structure. The wire harness clamp and the hose clamp are arranged in opposite directions. The side of the wire harness clamp away from the fixing clamp 3 is connected to the wire harness assembly, and the side of the hose clamp away from the fixing clamp is connected to the hose assembly.

[0023] The fixing clamp in this embodiment is triangular in shape. The hypotenuse of the triangle extends to the lower side of the hose clamp 11. The triangular structure and the extension of the hypotenuse to the hose clamp enhance the stability of the overall structure. A first mounting hole 14 is provided on the side of the fixing clamp away from the wire harness clamp. The first mounting hole 14 is located on the side corresponding to the base of the triangle. In this embodiment, the side of the fixing clamp away from the wire harness clamp is connected to the cylinder head 9 by bolts. The mounting hole diameter of the first mounting hole is slightly larger than the nominal diameter of the mounting bolt. An intake pipe 7 is also provided between the first mounting hole and the cylinder head 9. The side of the intake pipe away from the fixing clamp is connected to the cylinder head, and the other end extends toward the fixing clamp. The intake pipe 7 is provided with a channel through which bolts can pass. The side of the fixing clamp away from the wire harness clamp can be connected to the cylinder head by bolts 6 passing through the intake pipe.

[0024] Of course, the objects connected to the fixing pipe clamp by bolts can be designed according to the actual situation. They do not necessarily have to be fixed on the cylinder head. They can be fixed as long as the position is suitable, such as the engine block, frame, and other structures. Moreover, the aforementioned intake pipe can also be replaced with new objects according to the actual situation. It is not limited to the intake pipe structure. As long as the actual needs are met, it is acceptable.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, an intake pipe gasket 8 is also provided between the intake pipe and the cylinder head. The intake pipe gasket between the two can ensure the sealing performance between the intake pipe and the cylinder head and ensure that there is no air leakage. The intake pipe gasket can be made of asbestos or asbestos rubber, or other materials can be selected according to the actual situation, as long as the actual sealing requirements are met.

[0026] A second mounting hole 15 is provided on the side of the intake pipe near the fixed pipe clamp. This mounting hole has the same size as the first mounting hole of the fixed pipe clamp and the position corresponds one-to-one. The diameter of the second mounting hole is slightly larger than the nominal diameter of the mounting bolt. By controlling the size data of the second mounting hole and the bolt, it is ensured that the bolt can be assembled smoothly, and assembly errors can be compensated by slight adjustments to ensure that it is firmly fixed.

[0027] In this embodiment, the wire harness clamp is positioned to the left and the hose clamp is positioned to the right, allowing for independent fixation of different components. A first slot 12 is provided on the side of the wire harness clamp away from the wire harness clamp, and the first slot adopts a triangular slot structure to adapt to the fixing requirements of the wire harness assembly. A second slot 13 is provided on the side of the hose clamp away from the wire harness clamp, and the second slot adopts a circular structure to match the clamping component of the hose assembly. The choice of the structure of the first and second slots can be adjusted according to the actual situation for structural adaptability. Furthermore, the positions of the wire harness clamp and the hose clamp can also be interchanged according to the actual installation requirements of the wire harness assembly and the hose assembly.

[0028] In this embodiment, the wiring harness assembly refers to the crankshaft speed sensor wiring harness assembly, and the selected wiring harness is the crankshaft speed sensor wiring harness. The hose assembly refers to the breather hose assembly, and the selected hose is the breather hose. Of course, other different wiring harness assemblies and hose assemblies can also be selected according to the actual situation, as long as the actual requirements are met.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, the wire harness assembly includes a wire harness 2 and a plastic tube clamp 1. One end of the plastic tube clamp 1 is fitted onto the outside of the wire harness 2 by an interference fit, and the other end is snapped into the second slot 13 of the hose clamp part 11. Specifically, the plastic tube clamp is made of heat-resistant plastic material. One end of the clamp is fitted onto the outside of the wire harness by an interference fit, and the other end is snapped into the second slot of the hose clamp part by a snap-fit ​​structure to achieve the positioning and fixation of the wire harness.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the hose assembly includes a hose 4 and a cable tie 5. The cable tie is a strap structure that is sleeved on the outside of the hose and fixed to the surface of the respirator hose by tightening. The hooked conical clips on the cable tie 5 are adapted to the first slot 12 of the wire harness clip. The clips on the cable tie are engaged in the first slot, and the hose 4 is fixed by the engagement.

[0031] The fixing clamp forms a T-shaped integrated structure through the vertically and smoothly connected wire harness clamp and hose clamp. It cooperates with the plastic hose clamp through the first slot and with the cable ties through the second slot, realizing the simultaneous fixing of the wire harness and hose. Compared with the traditional solution of setting wire harness fixing parts and hose fixing parts separately, this structure integrates the two fixing functions into one, which greatly reduces the occupation of compact spaces such as engine compartment, and solves the problem of insufficient threaded holes for fixing hose clamps and space congestion caused by fixing multiple parts.

[0032] In addition, the triangular slot of the wire harness clamp matches the plastic tube clamp of the wire harness, and the circular slot of the hose clamp matches the clips and ties of the hose. The two slot structures are designed for the fixing needs of the wire harness and hose respectively, avoiding the risk of loosening or falling off and improving the fixing reliability.

[0033] During assembly, bolts pass through the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole in sequence to secure the fixing clamp to the intake pipe, thereby fixing the entire clamp structure to the cylinder head.

[0034] The specific assembly process for achieving reliable fixation of both the wire harness and the hose in this implementation of the pipe clamp structure includes: Step 1: Align the first mounting hole of the fixing pipe clamp with the second mounting hole of the intake pipe, insert the bolt and tighten it to fix the pipe clamp structure to the cylinder head.

[0035] Step 2: Pass the wire harness through the plastic tube clamp, so that the plastic tube clamp is fitted into the preset position of the wire harness.

[0036] Step 3: Insert the end of the plastic pipe clamp that is not fitted with the wire harness into the first slot of the wire harness clamp to complete the fixing of the wire harness and the pipe clamp assembly.

[0037] Step 4: Place the cable ties on the pre-set position of the tubing and tighten them to fix the cable ties to the surface of the tubing.

[0038] Step 5: Insert the clips of the cable tie into the second slot of the hose clamp to secure the hose to the clamp.

[0039] Through the above structural design, the pipe clamp structure of this embodiment can simultaneously achieve reliable fixation of wire harness and hose, reduce the use of separate fixing components, reduce assembly complexity, and has a compact overall structure, making it suitable for scenarios with limited space such as engine compartments.

[0040] While the specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without creative effort based on the technical solutions of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
