[0002] Currently, driver assistance systems are widely used in automobiles, typically requiring cameras covering the front, rear, left, and right sides of the vehicle for omnidirectional data collection. The rearview camera is positioned near the high brake lights on the spoiler. Since the spoiler is an independent movable module, the rearview camera mounted on it generally needs to be pre-produced and installed along with the spoiler, and cannot be assembled on the vehicle assembly line, which would increase logistics and transportation costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a fastening device and a vehicle, which aims to improve the problem that rearview cameras cannot be assembled on the vehicle assembly line, resulting in additional logistics and transportation costs.

[0004] This application provides a fastening device, including a base and a mounting part. The mounting part is connected to the base and is adapted to be connected to a vehicle spoiler. The mounting part is provided with a mounting structure arranged along the vertical direction of the vehicle. The base is adapted to mount a camera, and the front side of the base protrudes from the front side of the mounting part along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

[0005] In this embodiment, the front side of the base protrudes beyond the front side of the mounting part along the vehicle's longitudinal direction. This protruding design can accommodate the clearance groove, and the front side of the base extends into the reserved space, which can reduce the limitation of the narrow space between the spoiler and the vehicle body, thereby allowing the entire unit to smoothly enter the space between the spoiler and the vehicle body, while achieving a small space occupation, making it suitable for scenarios with narrow gaps between the spoiler and the vehicle body. In addition, the mounting structure is arranged in the vertical direction, allowing the mounting part and the base to be installed on the spoiler in the vertical direction. Through the above structure, more diverse assembly options are provided for the fastening device, effectively adapting to the assembly needs of various scenarios such as modular production, vehicle assembly, and after-sales repair.

[0021] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0022] ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) refers to the use of various environmental perception sensors installed on the vehicle to collect environmental data inside and outside the vehicle in real time, and to perform technical processing such as identification, detection and tracking of static and dynamic objects, so that the driver can detect potential dangers in the shortest possible time; when necessary, the system will actively intervene to avoid serious accidents.

[0023] Driving assistance systems typically use cameras that cover all scenarios in the front, rear, left, and right to collect data. The front-view binocular camera is located at the windshield, a pair of side rear cameras are located at the fenders, a pair of side front cameras are located at the exterior rearview mirrors, fenders, or roof, and a rear-view camera is located near the high brake light on the spoiler.

[0024] Because vehicles experience various vibrations during operation, cameras typically need to be mounted on fixed parts of the vehicle body. However, rearview cameras, which observe and identify the scene behind the vehicle, have strict requirements regarding installation height. Therefore, they are generally installed in the area of ​​the easily movable high brake light spoiler, capturing images of areas far beyond the human eye's reach, thus providing assistance to drivers. Since the high brake light spoiler is an independent movable module, the camera mounted on it usually needs to be pre-produced and installed along with the spoiler, making it impossible to install it on the vehicle assembly line, thereby increasing logistics and installation costs. Furthermore, the limited installation space at the spoiler location makes it easy for the camera to rotate, wobble, or exhibit other assembly deviations during installation, making it difficult to achieve stable installation and fixation of the camera through effective fastening structures.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a fastening device 100 includes a base 11 and a mounting part 12. The mounting part 12 is connected to the base 11 and is adapted to be connected to a spoiler 200 of a vehicle. The mounting part 12 is provided with a mounting structure 13 arranged along the vertical direction of the vehicle. The base 11 is adapted to mount a camera 400. The front side of the base 11 protrudes from the front side of the mounting part 12 along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

[0026] The mounting structure 13, arranged vertically, allows the mounting part 12 and the base 11 to be mounted vertically on the spoiler 200. The base 11 is used to mount the camera 400. The front side of the base 11 protrudes from the front side of the mounting part 12 along the vehicle's longitudinal direction. This protruding design adapts to the reserved space on the vehicle body 300. The front side of the base 11 extends into the reserved space, reducing the limitation of the narrow space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300, thus allowing the entire unit to smoothly enter the space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300. The cooperation between the front side of the base 11 and the reserved space results in a small overall footprint, making it suitable for use in narrow spaces.

[0027] Based on the above structural design, this embodiment has two assembly methods: First, if the camera 400 and the fastening device 100 are pre-assembled on the spoiler 200 module, the assembled fastening device 100 and the camera 400 can be directly assembled on the vehicle body 300 via the X-direction horizontal path to achieve the front spoiler 200 installation mode; Second, if the camera 400 and the fastening device 100 are assembled on the vehicle assembly line, the fastening device 100 can be aligned with the space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300 and moved. First, the front side of the base 11 is extended into the reserved space of the vehicle body 300, and then the fastening device 100 is driven into the space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300. Finally, the fastening device 100 is fixed on the spoiler 200 by the installation structure 13 set along the Z-direction to achieve the on-site installation mode of the vehicle production line. Offering more diverse assembly options through two installation and fastening paths, the system is convenient and efficient, effectively adapting to assembly needs in various scenarios such as modular production, vehicle assembly, and after-sales repair. With a wide range of applications, it effectively solves the problem of increased logistics and transportation costs caused by the inability to assemble on the vehicle assembly line.

[0028] In this embodiment, the mounting part 12 is connected to one side of the base 11 along the left-right direction of the vehicle and is connected to the spoiler 200 through the mounting structure 13. The bottom surface of the mounting part 12 is coplanar with the bottom surface of the base 11, and the top surface of the mounting part 12 is lower than the top surface of the base 11. This allows the front side of the base 11 to enter the reserved space, which can reduce the limitation of the narrow space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300, and can be applied to narrow space areas.

[0029] In the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the portion of the base 11 between the front side of the base 11 and the front side of the mounting part 12 can enter the reserved space of the vehicle body 300.

[0030] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base 11 includes a first connector 111 and a second connector 112. The front side of the first connector 111 is connected to the second connector 112, the rear side of the first connector 111 is connected to the mounting part 12, and the second connector 112 is disposed in front of the mounting part 12. The second connector 112 is connected to the front side of the camera 400.

[0031] The mounting part 12 and the base 11 are fixedly connected by the first connector 111, such as Figure 2As shown, the spoiler 200 is provided with a lens hole 21. The front side of the camera 400 is fixed to the second connector 112, and the rear side of the camera 400 is exposed through the lens hole 21, so that the camera 400 can collect image information. The camera 400 is housed in the space defined by the spoiler 200, the first connector 111, and the second connector 112. Only the camera 400 is exposed through the lens hole 21 to collect environmental information. The other parts of the camera 400 are not exposed, which ensures that the camera 400 can collect external environmental information stably. While being stable, it can also prevent falling off, improve the waterproofness of the vehicle camera 400 and the aesthetics of the vehicle body 300.

[0032] The first connector 111 is arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle, and the rear side of the first connector 111 is aligned with the rear side of the mounting part 12. The second connector 112 is arranged along the left-right direction of the vehicle. The first connector 111 and the second connector 112 are flat and perpendicular to each other. The mounting part 12 is connected to the side of the first connector 111.

[0033] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base 11 also includes a base plate 114 and a third connector 113. The first connector 111 and the third connector 113 are arranged opposite to each other. The first connector 111, the second connector 112 and the third connector 113 are arranged sequentially along the edge of the base plate 114 to form a receiving cavity. The receiving cavity is used to receive the camera 400, and the base plate 114 can support the camera 400.

[0034] The base plate 114 is located at the bottom of the base 11 and supports the camera 400. The first connector 111, the second connector 112, and the third connector 113 are arranged sequentially along the edge of the base plate 114, forming an XYZ omnidirectional enveloping space with the spoiler 200. The camera 400 is completely confined within this space, limiting the offset of the camera 400 in the XYZ direction and further improving the stability and waterproofness of the camera 400.

[0035] The first connector 111 and the third connector 113 are disposed on the left and right sides of the base plate 114, and the first connector 111 and the third connector 113 are symmetrically disposed. The second connector 112 is disposed on the front side of the base plate 114, and the rear side of the camera 400 can extend out of the receiving cavity.

[0036] In one embodiment, the first connector 111 includes a first plate and a second plate, the first plate and the second plate are integrally formed flat plate structures, the rear side of the first plate is connected to the front side of the second plate, the mounting part 12 is connected to the second plate, and the front side of the first plate is connected to one end of the second connector 112.

[0037] The third connecting member 113 includes a third plate and a fourth plate, which are integrally formed flat structures. The rear side of the third plate is connected to the front side of the fourth plate, and the front side of the third plate is connected to the other end of the second connecting member 112. The first plate and the third plate are arranged opposite to each other, and the second plate and the fourth plate are arranged opposite to each other. The first plate, the second connecting member 112, and the third plate constitute the protruding part of the base 11, which can fit into the reserved space of the vehicle body 300.

[0038] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first connector 111 has a first guide surface 1111 on its top, and the distance between the first guide surface 1111 and the base plate 114 decreases from front to back; the third connector 113 has a second guide surface 1131, and the distance between the second guide surface 1131 and the base plate 114 decreases from front to back.

[0039] The first guide surface 1111 on the top of the first connector 111 and the second guide surface 1131 of the third connector 113 both exhibit a "front-high, rear-low" inclined shape. When the base 11 is installed into the space between the spoiler 200 and the body 300, the inclined design of the guide surfaces can effectively avoid the spoiler 200, ensuring that there is no interference between the rear side of the base 11 and the spoiler 200, and ensuring that the front side of the base 11 smoothly enters the reserved space of the body 300, improving assembly convenience. In addition, when the base 11 enters the space between the spoiler 200 and the body 300, the inclined design of the guide surfaces can also avoid the internal structure of the spoiler 200.

[0040] The first guide surface 1111 is parallel to the second guide surface 1131, the first guide surface 1111 is the top surface of the second plate, and the second guide surface 1131 is the top surface of the fourth plate.

[0041] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the base 11 is provided with a plurality of first positioning members 1121 and a plurality of connecting holes 1122. The first positioning members 1121 can be inserted into the second positioning members of the camera 400, and the plurality of connecting holes 1122 are used for the first fasteners to pass through. The base 11 is connected to the camera 400 through the first fasteners.

[0042] Multiple second positioning components are provided on the camera 400. Each first positioning component 1121 is inserted into and cooperates with the corresponding second positioning component, which can accurately position the camera 400 on the base 11 and avoid offset or misalignment during installation. The first fastener passes through the connecting hole 1122 and is connected to the camera 400, realizing the fixed connection between the base 11 and the camera 400. Combined with the insertion and limiting of the first positioning component 1121 and the second positioning component, a dual fixing structure of positioning and locking is formed, which ensures the installation accuracy of the camera 400 and the fitting accuracy between the camera 400 and the lens hole 21 on the spoiler 200, providing a stable foundation for image acquisition.

[0043] The camera 400 is positioned in the Y and Z directions by the cooperation of multiple first positioning components 1121 and multiple second positioning components, preventing the camera 400 from rotating in the YZ plane. The first fasteners in the multiple connecting holes 1122 improve the stability of the camera 400, resist vibration and bumps during driving, and effectively reduce the risk of the camera 400 loosening or falling off.

[0044] The first fastener can be a screw or a bolt.

[0045] In one embodiment, one of the first positioning member 1121 and the second positioning member is a pin and the other is a plug hole. The cooperation between the pin and the plug hole can position the camera 400 on the base 11, preparing for the subsequent installation of the first fastener.

[0046] Preferably, a plurality of first positioning elements 1121 and a plurality of connecting holes 1122 are disposed on the front side of the base 11.

[0047] like Figure 1 The diagram shows the structure of the fastening device 100. The first positioning member 1121 is a insertion hole, and the second positioning member is a pin. The first positioning member 1121 is disposed on the second connecting member 112 of the base 11. The connecting hole 1122 is disposed on the second connecting member 112 of the base 11.

[0048] In this embodiment, the assembly error of the pin and the insertion hole is extremely small. After the two are plugged in, the position of the camera 400 in the Y and Z directions can be precisely limited, while the rotation of the camera 400 in the YZ plane can be effectively constrained, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the installation and positioning.

[0049] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base 11 is provided with a through hole 1123, which is used for the connector of the camera 400 to pass through. The through hole 1123 can avoid the connector of the camera 400, which facilitates the connection between the camera 400 and the vehicle's driving assistance system.

[0050] The via 1123 is provided on the second connector 112.

[0051] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the mounting part 12 includes a first mounting part 121 and a second mounting part 122. The base 11 is connected to the first mounting part 121 on one side along the left-right direction of the vehicle, and the base 11 is connected to the second mounting part 122 on the other side along the left-right direction of the vehicle. The mounting structure 13 includes a first mounting structure 131 disposed on the first mounting part 121 and a second mounting structure 132 disposed on the second mounting part 122.

[0052] By connecting the first mounting part 121 and the second mounting part 122 to the left and right sides of the base 11, a double L-shaped structure can be formed. The first mounting part 121 is fixed to the spoiler 200 in the vertical direction through the first mounting structure 131, and the second mounting part 122 is fixed to the spoiler 200 in the vertical direction through the second mounting structure 132. This can enhance the stability of the connection between the camera 400 and the vehicle body 300, prevent optical axis deviation, and improve image acquisition accuracy.

[0053] The first mounting part 121 and the second mounting part 122 are symmetrically arranged about the base 11. The first mounting part 121 is connected to the first connecting member 111 of the base 11, and the second mounting part 122 is connected to the third connecting member 113 of the base 11.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first mounting structure 131 includes a first mounting hole 1311, which extends through the first mounting portion 121 in the vertical direction of the vehicle. The first mounting hole 1311 is used for a second fastener to pass through, and the second fastener is connected to the spoiler 200.

[0055] The first mounting hole 1311, which runs vertically through the vehicle, cooperates with the second fastener to form a tightening force in the vertical direction, which helps the fastening device 100 to achieve the installation mode of on-site installation on the vehicle production line.

[0056] The first mounting hole 1311 and the second fastener have very small assembly error. After the second fastener passes through the first mounting hole 1311 and is connected to the spoiler 200, it can accurately limit the position of the base 11 in the X and Y directions, prevent the base 11 and the camera 400 from rotating in the XY plane, and ensure the stability and accuracy of the installation positioning.

[0057] In this embodiment, the second fastener is a bolt or screw, and the spoiler 200 is provided with a first threaded hole, so that the second fastener can be tightened into the first threaded hole.

[0058] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1As shown, the second mounting structure 132 includes a second mounting hole 1321 that extends through the second mounting portion 122 along the vertical direction of the vehicle. The second mounting hole 1321 is used for a third fastener to pass through, and the third fastener is connected to the spoiler 200. The vertically extending second mounting hole 1321 cooperates with the third fastener to form a vertical fastening force, which helps the fastening device 100 to achieve the installation mode of on-site installation on the vehicle production line.

[0059] The second mounting hole 1321 and the third fastener have very small assembly error. After the third fastener passes through the second mounting hole 1321 and is connected to the spoiler 200, it can accurately limit the position of the base 11 in the X and Y directions, prevent the base 11 and the camera 400 from rotating in the XY plane, and ensure the stability and accuracy of the installation positioning.

[0060] In this embodiment, the third fastener is a bolt or screw, and the spoiler 200 is provided with a second threaded hole, so that the second fastener can be tightened into the second threaded hole.

[0061] In one embodiment, one of the first mounting hole 1311 and the second mounting hole 1321 is a round hole and the other is an elliptical hole. The assembly position of the fastener can be adjusted in the Y direction through the elliptical hole, which can effectively offset the cumulative errors generated during the part processing and body assembly process, avoid the difficulty of hole alignment caused by errors, and greatly improve the assembly pass rate.

[0062] In one embodiment, the fastening device 100 further includes a reinforcing member 14, which is connected to the mounting portion 12 and the base 11 and can strengthen the connection between the mounting portion 12 and the base 11.

[0063] The reinforcing member 14 is a triangular rib. The reinforcing rib and the mounting part 12 are integrally formed.

[0064] This application also provides a vehicle, such as... Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the device includes a body 300, a spoiler 200, a camera 400, and a fastening device 100 according to any of the above embodiments. The fastening device 100 is disposed between the spoiler 200 and the rear side of the body 300. The camera 400 is mounted on the base 11, and the mounting part 12 is mounted on the spoiler 200. The body 300 is provided with a clearance groove 31, and the front side of the base 11 can be inserted into the clearance groove 31.

[0065] The clearance slot 31 is a reserved space on the vehicle body 300. The front side of the base 11 protrudes from the front side of the mounting part 12 along the vehicle's longitudinal direction. This protruding design can accommodate the clearance slot 31. The front side of the base 11 extends into the reserved space, which can reduce the limitation of the narrow space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300, thereby allowing the entire unit to smoothly enter the space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300, while achieving a small space occupation, making it suitable for scenarios with narrow gaps between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300. In addition, the mounting structure 13 is arranged in the vertical direction, so that the mounting part 12 and the base 11 can be installed on the spoiler 200 in the vertical direction. Through the above structure, more diverse assembly options are provided for the fastening device 100, effectively adapting to the assembly needs of multiple scenarios such as modular production, vehicle assembly, and after-sales repair. It has a wide range of applications and effectively solves the problem that existing assembly cannot be carried out on the vehicle assembly line, resulting in increased logistics and transportation costs.

[0066] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the spoiler 200 is provided with a lens hole 21, through which the rear of the camera 400 is exposed. The camera 400 is exposed through the lens hole 21 to collect environmental information. The rest of the camera 400 is housed in the space between the spoiler 200 and the vehicle body 300, ensuring that the camera 400 can stably collect external environmental information. This stability also prevents it from falling off, improves the waterproofness of the vehicle camera 400, and enhances the aesthetics of the vehicle body 300.
