[0001] This application relates to the field of tire fixing, and in particular to a spare tire fixing component, a spare tire mounting assembly, and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] During vehicle assembly, some component connection points often lack pre-designed connection structures. Taking the assembly of a spare tire and spare tire cover as an example, traditional solutions often involve developing a dedicated connection structure, designing entirely new connection bases, matching interfaces, and fixing components to meet the component assembly requirements.

[0003] Existing solutions that involve redesigning the connection structure are not only costly, but also increase the number of parts and assembly processes, leading to reduced production efficiency. Furthermore, the connection method involving multiple parts may reduce the overall structural stability and increase the difficulty and cost of later maintenance, failing to meet the needs of automakers for low-cost, high-efficiency, and highly integrated assembly solutions.

[0027] In the embodiments of this application, the same reference numerals denote the same components, and for the sake of brevity, detailed descriptions of the same components are omitted in different embodiments. It should be understood that the thickness, length, width, and other dimensions of various components in the embodiments of this application shown in the accompanying drawings, as well as the overall thickness, length, width, and other dimensions of the integrated device, are merely illustrative and should not constitute any limitation on this application.

[0028] In this application, "multiple" means two or more (including two).

[0029] See Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a spare tire mounting component 1 for a spare tire mounting assembly 2. The spare tire mounting assembly 2 includes a spare tire bracket 21, a spare tire protective cover 22, and fasteners 23. The spare tire bracket 21 and the spare tire protective cover 22 are connected to form a receiving space for accommodating the spare tire.

[0030] The spare tire mounting component 1 includes a bracket connecting part 11, a spare tire abutting part 12, and a protective cover connecting part 13 connected in sequence. The bracket connecting part 11 is configured to be connected and fixed to the spare tire bracket 21. The spare tire abutting part 12 is located on one side of the bracket connecting part 11 and is configured to fix the spare tire. The protective cover connecting part 13 is located on the side of the spare tire abutting part 12 facing away from the bracket connecting part 11 and is configured to connect to the spare tire protective cover 22. The protective cover connecting part 13 includes a transition part 131, which is configured to connect to a fastener 23, so that the protective cover connecting part 13 and the fastener 23 fix the spare tire protective cover 22.

[0031] In some feasible implementations, the spare tire bracket 21 is used to support the spare tire. The spare tire to be secured is placed on the spare tire bracket 21. The bracket connecting portion 11 at one end of the spare tire fixing member 1 passes through the spare tire and connects to the spare tire bracket 21. The spare tire abutting portion 12 abuts against the spare tire to secure it. The spare tire protective cover 22 is connected to the protective cover connecting portion 13, and fasteners 23 are used to connect to the adapter portion 131 of the protective cover connecting portion 13, thereby securing the spare tire protective cover 22. The spare tire protective cover 22 forms a shield around the spare tire, providing protection.

[0032] The spare tire mounting bracket 1 of this application embodiment has a bracket connecting portion 11 at one end that can be connected and fixed to the spare tire bracket 21, and a protective cover connecting portion 13 at the other end that can be connected to the spare tire protective cover 22. This creates a spare tire receiving space between the spare tire bracket 21 and the spare tire protective cover 22, which can accommodate the spare tire. The spare tire abutment portion 12 between the bracket connecting portion 11 and the protective cover connecting portion 13 can stably fix the spare tire, reducing the possibility of the spare tire falling off during vehicle operation. At the same time, the spare tire protective cover 22 can protect the spare tire, reducing the possibility of the spare tire being worn.

[0033] The spare tire fixing component 1 includes a bracket connecting part 11 connected to the spare tire bracket 21, a protective cover connecting part 13 connected to the spare tire protective cover 22, and a spare tire abutting part 12 for fixing the spare tire. This improves the integration of the spare tire fixing component 1. The spare tire fixing component 1 can be used as a connector to connect with the spare tire bracket 21, and can also be used as a connecting base to fix the spare tire protective cover 22 by connecting with the fastener 23. This expands the function of the spare tire fixing component 1 itself, reduces the number of parts used when fixing the spare tire, helps to improve assembly efficiency, and effectively reduces costs.

[0034] In some feasible embodiments, the bracket connecting part 11, the spare tire abutting part 12, and the protective cover connecting part 13 are all rotating bodies, and the axes of the bracket connecting part 11, the spare tire abutting part 12, and the protective cover connecting part 13 coincide.

[0035] In some feasible embodiments, the cross-sectional area of ​​the spare tire abutment portion 12 perpendicular to its axis is greater than the cross-sectional area of ​​the bracket connection portion 11 perpendicular to its axis, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the bracket connection portion 11 perpendicular to its axis is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the protective cover connection portion 13 perpendicular to its axis.

[0036] By maximizing the cross-sectional area of ​​the spare tire abutment part 12 perpendicular to its axis, the spare tire abutment part 12 can better abut and fix the spare tire, reducing the possibility of the spare tire falling off during vehicle operation and effectively improving the stability and safety of the spare tire.

[0037] In some feasible ways, the bracket connection 11, the spare tire abutment 12, and the protective cover connection 13 may be made of steel, but are not limited to.

[0038] In some feasible ways, the spare tire fastener 1 is a one-piece molded structure.

[0039] In some feasible ways, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adapter 131 includes a receiving hole 1311, which is provided at the end of the protective cover connector 13 away from the spare tire grounding portion, and the receiving hole 1311 is configured to connect with the fastener 23.

[0040] In some feasible ways, by providing a receiving hole 1311 at the end of the protective cover connecting part 13 away from the spare tire grounding part, the receiving hole 1311 at the end is easily observed when the spare tire protective cover 22 is connected to the protective cover connecting part 13, which facilitates the connection of the fastener 23 to the receiving hole 1311 and improves the convenience of connection operation.

[0041] In some feasible ways, the receiving hole 1311 is a threaded hole.

[0042] The fastener 23 has threads on its outer wall and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. During the connection process, the end of the fastener 23 is placed into the threaded hole and the fastener 23 is tightened. The threads on the outer wall of the fastener 23 engage with the threads of the threaded hole. Once the fastener 23 locks the spare tire cover 22, the tightening of the fastener 23 is stopped, completing the connection between the fastener 23 and the threaded hole.

[0043] The threaded connection between the receiving hole 1311 and the fastener 23 is beneficial to improve the connection stability and strength between the protective cover connection part 13 and the fastener 23, and reduces the possibility that the spare tire protective cover 22 and the spare tire may fall off due to loosening or falling off between the protective cover connection part 13 and the fastener 23 during vehicle use.

[0044] In some feasible embodiments, the outer wall of the bracket connection 11 is provided with threads, and the bracket connection 11 is configured to be threadedly connected to the spare tire bracket 21.

[0045] In some feasible methods, the spare tire bracket 21 is provided with a threaded hole that matches the thread on the outer wall of the bracket connecting part 11. During the connection process, the end of the bracket connecting part 11 is placed into the threaded hole of the spare tire bracket 21, and the bracket connecting part 11 is screwed on. The thread on the outer wall of the bracket connecting part 11 engages with the thread of the threaded hole. When the spare tire abutting part 12 abuts and fixes the spare tire, the screwing on the bracket connecting part 11 is stopped, and the connection between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21 is completed.

[0046] The bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21 are connected by threads, which helps to improve the connection stability and strength between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21, and reduces the possibility that the spare tire cover 22 and the spare tire will fall off during vehicle use due to loosening or falling off between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21.

[0047] In some feasible ways, such as Figure 2 As shown, a first stepped surface 121 is formed between the bracket connecting portion 11 and the spare tire abutting portion 12. The first stepped surface 121 is arranged circumferentially around the bracket connecting portion 11 and is configured to press against the spare tire. A second stepped surface 122 is formed between the protective cover connecting portion 13 and the spare tire abutting portion 12. The second stepped surface 122 is arranged circumferentially around the protective cover connecting portion 13 and is configured to limit the movement of the spare tire protective cover 22.

[0048] The bracket connecting part 11 at one end of the spare tire fixing part 1 passes through the spare tire and connects to the spare tire bracket 21. The first stepped surface 121 abuts against the spare tire to fix the spare tire. The spare tire protective cover 22 is connected to the protective cover connecting part 13. The spare tire protective cover 22 abuts against the second stepped surface 122. The fastener 23 is connected to the adapter part 131 to fix the spare tire protective cover 22.

[0049] A first stepped surface 121 is provided between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire abutting part 12 to press against the spare tire. The first stepped surface 121 can effectively enhance the tightness of the contact between the spare tire and the spare tire abutting part 12, disperse the inertial force and vibration impact force on the spare tire when the vehicle is in motion, reduce the possibility of the spare tire becoming unstable and loose due to road bumps, rapid acceleration or sudden braking, and reduce the risk of abnormal noise and structural wear caused by the spare tire shaking. A second stepped surface 122 is provided between the protective cover connecting part 13 and the spare tire abutting part 12. The second stepped surface 122 can limit the position of the spare tire protective cover 22, facilitate the installation of the spare tire protective cover 22, and at the same time reduce the risk of abnormal noise and structural wear caused by the spare tire protective cover 22 shaking due to road bumps or sudden braking.

[0050] In some feasible ways, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first step surface 121 is a conical surface.

[0051] During the process of connecting the bracket connecting part 11 to the spare tire bracket 21 and the spare tire abutting part 12 abutting and fixing the spare tire, the first step surface 121 can apply force to the spare tire to push the spare tire that has shifted position back to the predetermined position, thereby improving the accuracy of the spare tire installation position.

[0052] By setting the first step surface 121 as a conical surface, the first step surface 121 can better fit and press against the spare tire, effectively enhancing the tightness of the contact between the first step surface 121 and the spare tire.

[0053] In some feasible ways, such as Figure 3 As shown, the protective cover connecting part 13 includes two or more mounting positioning planes 132, which are arranged along the circumference of the protective cover connecting part 13, and the mounting positioning planes 132 are connected to the second step surface 122.

[0054] When installing the spare tire cover 22 on the protective cover connecting part 13, the mounting positioning plane 132 can position the spare tire cover 22, facilitating assembly between the spare tire cover 22 and the protective cover connecting part 13 and improving assembly efficiency. After the spare tire cover 22 is assembled with the protective cover connecting part 13, the mounting positioning plane 132 can still position the spare tire cover 22, reducing the possibility of the spare tire cover 22 rotating relative to the protective cover connecting part 13.

[0055] During the connection process between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21, the protective cover connecting part 13 is screwed using a screwing device to connect the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21. By providing two or more mounting positioning surfaces 132 on the protective cover connecting part 13, the screwing device can better contact the protective cover connecting part 13 during the screwing process, reducing the possibility of the screwing device separating from the protective cover connecting part 13 during the screwing process.

[0056] In some examples, the spare tire cover 22 includes a positioning cylinder (not shown). The spare tire cover 22 is fitted onto the cover connector 13 via the positioning cylinder to fix the position of the spare tire cover 22, and then the spare tire cover 22 is locked in place using fasteners 23. The inner bore structure of the positioning cylinder matches the structure of the cover connector 13, facilitating the insertion of the positioning cylinder into the cover connector 13.

[0057] like Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, this application provides a spare tire mounting assembly for a vehicle. The vehicle includes a spare tire, and the spare tire mounting assembly 2 includes a spare tire bracket 21, a spare tire fastener 1, a spare tire protective cover 22, and a fastener 23.

[0058] The spare tire bracket 21 is configured to connect to the vehicle and carry the spare tire. The bracket connecting portion 11 of the spare tire fixing member 1 is connected and fixed to the spare tire bracket 21, and the spare tire abutment portion 12 is configured to fix the spare tire. The spare tire cover 22 is connected to the cover connecting portion 13, and a spare tire receiving space is formed between the spare tire bracket 21 and the spare tire cover 22. The fastener 23 is connected to the adapter portion 131 of the cover connecting portion 13, and the cover connecting portion 13 and the fastener 23 fix the spare tire cover 22.

[0059] The spare tire bracket 21 is connected to the vehicle, and the spare tire is placed on the spare tire bracket 21. The bracket connecting part 11 at one end of the spare tire fixing part 1 passes through the spare tire and connects to the spare tire bracket 21. The spare tire abutting part 12 abuts against the spare tire to fix the spare tire. The spare tire protective cover 22 is connected to the protective cover connecting part 13, and the fastener 23 is connected to the adapter part 131 of the protective cover connecting part 13, thereby fixing the spare tire protective cover 22.

[0060] The spare tire mounting assembly 2 of this application embodiment connects a spare tire bracket 21 to a spare tire protective cover 22, forming a receiving space between them to store the spare tire. The spare tire protective cover 22 protects the spare tire, reducing the possibility of wear and tear. By using a spare tire fastener 1 to connect the spare tire bracket 21 and the spare tire protective cover 22, the spare tire fastener 1 integrates a bracket connecting part 11 connected to the spare tire bracket 21, a protective cover connecting part 13 connected to the spare tire protective cover 22, and a spare tire abutment part 12 that bears the weight of the spare tire. The spare tire fastener 1 serves both as a connector to the spare tire bracket 21 and as a connecting base to fix the spare tire protective cover 22 via fasteners 23. It also bears the weight of the spare tire, reducing the number of parts required for spare tire fixing, effectively lowering costs, and improving installation efficiency.

[0061] In some feasible ways, the spare tire bracket 21 may be bolted to the vehicle.

[0062] In some possible implementations, the vehicle includes a tailgate, to which a spare tire bracket 21 is attached, with the spare tire bracket 21 located on the outside of the tailgate.

[0063] In some possible implementations, the spare tire bracket 21 includes a first mounting hole. The bracket connector 11 is connected to the spare tire bracket 21 through the first mounting hole.

[0064] When the bracket connecting part 11 is connected to the spare tire bracket 21, the bracket connecting part 11 passing through the spare tire can be easily aligned and connected with the first mounting hole, improving the convenience of connection operation.

[0065] In some examples, the inner wall of the first mounting hole is threaded, and the outer wall of the bracket connecting part 11 is threaded, with the bracket connecting part 11 threadedly connected to the first mounting hole. During the connection process, the end of the bracket connecting part 11 is aligned with the first mounting hole, and the bracket connecting part 11 is screwed on. The thread on the outer wall of the bracket connecting part 11 engages with the thread of the first mounting hole. Once the spare tire abutting part 12 abuts and fixes the spare tire, the screwing of the bracket connecting part 11 is stopped, completing the connection between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21.

[0066] The bracket connecting part 11 and the first mounting hole are connected by a thread, which helps to improve the connection stability and connection strength between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21, and reduces the possibility that the spare tire cover 22 and the spare tire will fall off during vehicle use due to loosening or falling off between the bracket connecting part 11 and the spare tire bracket 21.

[0067] In some possible implementations, the spare tire cover 22 includes a second mounting hole corresponding to the adapter 131, through which a fastener 23 passes and connects to the adapter 131.

[0068] The second mounting hole can provide positioning guidance for the fastener 23, making it easier for the fastener 23 to be quickly and accurately connected to the adapter 131, improving the connection convenience between the fastener 23 and the adapter 131, and increasing assembly efficiency.

[0069] In some examples, there are two or more first mounting holes, two or more spare tire fasteners 1, and two or more second mounting holes. One spare tire fastener 1 corresponds to one first mounting hole and one second mounting hole.

[0070] This application provides a vehicle including a tailgate, a spare tire, and a spare tire mounting assembly 2. The spare tire mounting assembly 2 is connected to the tailgate, and the spare tire is disposed in the spare tire receiving space and connected to the spare tire mounting assembly 2.

[0071] In some feasible implementations, the spare tire mounting assembly 2 includes a spare tire bracket 21, a spare tire fastener 1, a spare tire cover 22, and fasteners 23. The spare tire bracket 21 is connected to the tailgate, and the spare tire is placed on the spare tire bracket 21. The bracket connecting portion 11 at one end of the spare tire fastener 1 passes through the spare tire and connects to the spare tire bracket 21, and the spare tire abutting portion 12 abuts against the spare tire to secure it. A spare tire receiving space is formed between the spare tire bracket 21 and the spare tire cover 22 to accommodate the spare tire.

[0072] By connecting the spare tire mounting assembly 2 to the tailgate, the spare tire is securely attached to the tailgate, reducing the likelihood of it falling off the vehicle while driving. A spare tire storage space is provided within the spare tire mounting assembly 2, allowing the spare tire to be stored within it. The spare tire is thus secured, minimizing the possibility of wear or damage to the spare tire.

[0073] In some feasible ways, the spare tire bracket 21 can be connected to the tailgate by bolts, but not limited to.

[0074] Although this application has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made thereto and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of this application. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner, provided there is no structural conflict. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
