Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle bodies, and in particular to a ladder mounting structure and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] To facilitate climbing onto the vehicle roof, ladders can be installed on the vehicle body for some vehicle models through optional installation or other manners. In current traditional designs, the ladder is generally mounted on the side panel of the vehicle body, and a bracket structure is also provided in the side panel of the vehicle body to increase the reliability of ladder installation. However, the existing ladder mounting methods still have deficiencies such as limited mounting strength of the ladder on the vehicle body, which is not conducive to improving the mounting and use quality of the ladder on the vehicle. Contents of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of this, the present application aims to propose a ladder mounting structure, which is beneficial to improving the mounting and use quality of the ladder on the vehicle.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the present application is implemented as follows: A ladder mounting structure is adapted to mount a ladder on a vehicle body via a mounting member, and comprises a mounting seat disposed between a side pillar and a side outer panel of the vehicle body; The mounting seat is formed by casting and fixed on the side pillar, and the mounting seat has an outer shell and a mounting post disposed inside the outer shell via reinforcing rib plates; A ladder mounting hole is provided on the mounting post, and the mounting member passes through a mounting through hole on the side outer panel and is fixedly connected in the ladder mounting hole.

[0005] Further, the reinforcing rib plates are in a "meter" shape and form a plurality of support plates arranged around the mounting post.

[0006] Further, the ladder mounting structure comprises a stamping-formed mounting bracket; The mounting seat is fixed on the side pillar via the mounting bracket.

[0007] Further, a bracket connecting hole is provided on the mounting post, and the mounting seat and the mounting bracket are fixedly connected together via a connecting member; The connecting member passes through a connecting through hole on the mounting bracket and is fixedly connected in the bracket connecting hole.

[0008] Further, the bracket connecting hole and the ladder mounting hole are arranged coaxially, and a partition structure for separating the bracket connecting hole and the ladder mounting hole is provided inside the mounting post.

[0009] Further, the mounting bracket is in a "pi" shape; The mounting base is connected to the middle of the mounting bracket, and both ends of the mounting bracket are connected to the side column, with a cavity formed between the mounting bracket and the side column.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting base has a blocking plate; The blocking plate seals one end of the outer shell near the side panel, and the ladder mounting hole is provided through the blocking plate; The blocking plate is attached to the inner wall of the outer side panel, and a sealant is provided between the blocking plate and the inner wall of the outer side panel.

[0011] Furthermore, it includes a mounting bracket located on the outer side of the side panel; The mounting bracket is arranged corresponding to the mounting seat, and the mounting component passes through the through hole on the mounting bracket. The installed ladder is supported on the mounting bracket.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the mounting bracket near the outer side panel is attached to the outer wall of the outer side panel, and a sealing gasket is provided between the mounting bracket and the outer side panel.

[0013] Compared with related technologies, this application has the following advantages: (1) The ladder installation structure described in this application provides a mounting seat located between the outer side panel and the side pillar, which is cast and has an outer shell and a mounting column set in the outer shell by a reinforcing rib plate. This also fixes the mounting seat to the side pillar. On the one hand, the mounting seat is a cast hollow part, which gives the mounting seat itself good structural strength. On the other hand, the mounting seat can be fixed to the side pillar, which further increases the overall structural strength of the ladder installation position. This can improve the installation strength of the ladder on the vehicle body, improve the reliability of the ladder, and thus improve the installation and use quality of the ladder on the vehicle.

[0014] (2) The stiffening ribs are in the shape of a "rice" and form multiple support plates around the mounting column. This not only makes the stiffening ribs a relatively regular structure, which facilitates the design and preparation of the stiffening ribs and even the mounting base, but also allows each support plate to support the connection of the mounting column at different angles, ensuring the strengthening effect of the stiffening ribs. This helps to improve the reliability of the mounting column in the mounting base and improve the stability of the ladder installed on the mounting base.

[0015] (3) By providing the stamping-formed mounting bracket, the mounting seat is fixed to the side pillar via the mounting bracket. On the one hand, with the adapter function of the mounting bracket, it is convenient for the cast-formed mounting seat to be fixedly arranged on the side pillar. On the other hand, the stamping forming of the mounting bracket facilitates its design and preparation, which helps reduce the design and manufacturing cost of the mounting structure.

[0016] (4) The bracket connecting hole is arranged on the mounting post, the connecting through hole is arranged on the mounting bracket, and the mounting bracket and the mounting seat are connected together by the connecting member that passes through the connecting through hole and is fixedly connected in the bracket connecting hole. The structure is simple, which facilitates design, forming and connection operations, is beneficial to realizing the connection between the mounting seat and the mounting bracket, and also helps ensure the connection reliability between the mounting bracket and the mounting seat.

[0017] (5) The bracket connecting hole and the ladder mounting hole are arranged coaxially, and a blocking structure is arranged in the mounting post to separate the coaxially arranged bracket connecting hole and ladder mounting hole. On the one hand, the coaxial arrangement of the bracket connecting hole and the ladder mounting hole can simplify the structure of the mounting post, that is, the mounting seat, and facilitate the design and preparation of the mounting seat. On the other hand, the blocking structure separates the bracket connecting hole and the ladder mounting hole, which can prevent external water from entering the interior of the vehicle body side wall through the ladder mounting hole and the bracket connecting hole on the basis of the coaxial arrangement of the two holes, and improve the sealing performance of the ladder mounting position.

[0018] (6) The mounting bracket adopts a zigzag (several-shaped) structure, the mounting seat is connected with the middle part of the mounting bracket, the two ends of the mounting bracket are connected with the side pillar, and a cavity is formed between the mounting bracket and the side pillar. This not only facilitates the connection between the mounting seat and the mounting bracket, as well as between the mounting bracket and the side pillar, but also utilizes the high structural strength characteristics of the zigzag shape and the cavity structure to increase the structural strength of the mounting bracket itself, which helps improve the stability of the fixed arrangement of the mounting seat on the side pillar.

[0019] (7) By arranging a blocking plate at the end of the mounting seat close to the side outer panel, making the blocking plate fit with the inner wall of the side outer panel, and arranging sealant between the blocking plate and the inner wall of the side outer panel, the end of the mounting seat can be designed to conform to the shape of the side outer panel, so that the mounting seat can provide good support for the side outer panel, effectively avoid problems such as collapse of the side outer panel during ladder installation, and help ensure the appearance quality of the vehicle body. At the same time, the sealant arranged between the blocking plate and the inner wall of the side outer panel can effectively seal the gap between the mounting seat and the side outer panel, prevent external water from entering the interior of the vehicle body side wall through the mounting through hole on the side outer panel, and is beneficial to improving the sealing performance of the ladder mounting position.

[0020] (8) A mounting bracket corresponding to the mounting seat arrangement is provided on the outer side of the side panel, so that the mounting parts are inserted into the through holes on the mounting bracket, and the ladder after installation is supported on the mounting bracket. With the support of the mounting bracket on the inner side of the side panel, the ladder after installation is supported on the outer side of the side panel, so that there is a certain distance between the ladder and the side panel of the vehicle body. This facilitates the use of the ladder, improves the practicality of the ladder, and also helps to avoid bumping the side panel of the vehicle body when using the ladder, which would damage the appearance of the vehicle and improve the quality of the ladder.

[0021] (9) By making the end of the mounting bracket close to the outer wall of the side panel fit against the outer wall of the side panel, and setting a sealing gasket between the mounting bracket and the side panel, the end of the mounting bracket can be designed to conform to the shape of the side panel, avoiding problems such as collapse of the side panel during ladder installation and use due to the stress on the mounting bracket. This helps to ensure the appearance quality of the vehicle body. At the same time, the sealing gasket set between the mounting bracket and the side panel can also prevent external water from flowing into the side panel of the vehicle body through the gap between the mounting bracket and the side panel and the installation holes on the side panel, which is beneficial to improving the sealing of the ladder installation position.

[0022] Another object of this application is to provide a vehicle having a ladder mounting structure as described above on its body.

[0023] The vehicle described in this application and the aforementioned ladder installation structure have the same advantages over related technologies, which will not be repeated here. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the technical solution and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

In addition, if terms such as "first" or "second" appear, they are also used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0028] Furthermore, in the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly defined, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "connector" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application in light of the specific circumstances.

[0029] In this application, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example, which is included in at least one embodiment or example of this application. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.

[0030] The present application will now be described in detail through exemplary embodiments. However, it should be understood that, without further description, elements, structures, and features in one embodiment may be advantageously incorporated into other embodiments.

[0031] The first aspect of this application provides a ladder mounting structure, which is suitable for mounting a ladder 1 on a vehicle body via a mounting member 5, and preferably mounting the ladder 1 at the rear of the vehicle body. The ladder mounting structure of this embodiment, through its innovative structural design, is beneficial to improving the installation and use quality of the ladder 1 on the vehicle.

[0032] In related technologies, with the popularity of self-driving tours, people sometimes climb onto the roofs of vehicles with walkways to get a better view while driving outdoors. To facilitate climbing onto the roof, some models can be equipped with ladders on the vehicle body as optional extras.

[0033] Currently, in traditional designs, ladder 1 is generally installed on the side panel of the vehicle body by bolting. A bracket structure is also set in the side panel of the vehicle body, and the bolts for installing ladder 1 are connected to the bracket structure to increase the reliability of ladder 1 installation.

[0034] However, although it is possible to install the ladder 1 on the vehicle body, the existing ladder installation method still has shortcomings such as limited installation strength of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body, which is not conducive to improving the installation and use quality of the ladder 1 on the vehicle.

[0035] In view of this, in order to overcome the shortcomings of related technologies, the ladder installation structure in this embodiment combines... Figures 1 to 12As shown, the overall design includes a mounting base 401 located between the side pillar 3 and the side outer panel 2 in the vehicle body.

[0036] The mounting base 401 is cast and fixed to the side column 3. The mounting base 401 also has a housing 4011 and a mounting column 4013 set in the housing 4011 by a reinforcing rib 4014.

[0037] Meanwhile, a ladder mounting hole 401a is provided on the mounting column 4013, and the mounting part 5 for mounting the ladder 1 passes through the mounting through hole 201 on the side outer panel 2 and is fixed in the ladder mounting hole 401a to realize the installation of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body.

[0038] Therefore, as described above, by setting a mounting base 401 between the side outer panel 2 and the side pillar 3, the mounting base 401 is cast and has a shell 4011 and a mounting post 4013 set in the shell 4011 via a reinforcing rib 4014. At the same time, the mounting base 401 is fixed to the side pillar 3. In this embodiment, the mounting base 401 is a cast cavity part with a cavity S, which gives the mounting base 401 itself good structural strength. At the same time, this embodiment can also combine the fixing of the mounting base 401 to the side pillar 3 to further increase the overall structural strength of the ladder installation position with the help of the side pillar 3, thereby improving the installation strength of the ladder on the vehicle body and improving the reliability of the ladder use, so as to improve the quality of ladder installation and use on the vehicle.

[0039] Based on the above overview, specifically, it is worth noting that, as before... Figure 1 As shown, the ladder 1 installed by the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment can be installed, for example, at the rear of the vehicle body. In this way, compared with the method of installing the ladder 1 on the side of the vehicle body, placing the ladder 1 at the rear of the vehicle body obviously avoids the increase in the width of the vehicle body caused by setting the ladder 1 on the side of the vehicle body, which would affect the vehicle's passability and increase the wind noise when the vehicle is driving, thus adversely affecting the overall driving comfort of the vehicle.

[0040] Furthermore, since the ladder 1 is installed at the rear of the vehicle body, and considering that ladders are generally installed on off-road vehicles and other vehicles with a D-pillar, this embodiment still refers to... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the aforementioned side pillar 3 can typically be a D-pillar in the side panel of the vehicle body. That is, in the preferred embodiment of this example, the ladder 1 is installed on the D-pillar in the side panel of the vehicle body via a mounting structure, and specifically installed on the rear side of the D-pillar.

[0041] It should be noted that, in addition to the above-mentioned arrangement where the ladder 1 is mounted at the tail of the vehicle body and on the D-pillar in the vehicle body side wall, certainly, in some other embodiments, if corresponding mounting conditions are met, the ladder 1 can also be mounted at other positions on the vehicle body, such as the side part of the vehicle body. Moreover, besides being mounted on the D-pillar in the vehicle body side wall, the ladder 1 can also be mounted on other pillar structures in the vehicle body side wall through the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment, as long as the pillar structure meets the layout requirements of the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment, which is not limited thereto.

[0042] In addition, it can be understood that, as continued in Figure 1 as shown in, to ensure the mounting reliability of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body, it is generally required that both the top and the bottom of the ladder 1 are mounted on the vehicle body. For the convenience of description, for example, the related structure for mounting the top of the ladder 1 can be referred to as an upper mounting structure 4, and similarly, the related structure for mounting the bottom of the ladder 1 can be referred to as a lower mounting structure 7.

[0043] At this time, it is worth noting that the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment is specifically the upper mounting structure 4 for mounting the top of the ladder 1, so that the top of the ladder 1 can be mounted on the vehicle body, especially on the side wall pillar 3 (D-pillar) in the vehicle body.

[0044] As for the lower mounting structure 7 for mounting the bottom of the ladder 1, in specific implementation, for example, it can refer to the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment and adopt the same or similar structure as the upper mounting structure 4. Alternatively, besides adopting the same or similar structure as the upper mounting structure 4, the lower mounting structure 7 can also adopt other mounting structures capable of mounting the bottom of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body, especially on the side wall pillar 3 (D-pillar). The forms of these mounting structures are not limited, as long as they can realize reliable mounting of the bottom of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body.

[0045] In this embodiment, in specific implementation, it is worth noting that the cast-molded mounting seat 401 can generally be made of aluminum alloy or magnesium alloy. In this way, not only can the preparation of the mounting seat 401 be facilitated and the mounting seat 401 have good structural strength, but also the weight of the mounting seat 401 can be relatively low, which is beneficial to realizing lightweight design.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, with continued reference to Figure 7 as shown in, in some exemplary embodiments, the above-mentioned reinforcing rib plate 4014 located inside the mounting seat 401 can, for example, be in a "star" shape, and form a plurality of support plates 40141 arranged around the mounting post 4013.

[0047] In this way, by making the reinforcing rib plate 4014 in a "star" shape and forming a plurality of support plates 40141 arranged around the mounting post 4013, it can be understood that this not only enables the reinforcing rib plate 4014 to have a relatively regular structure as a whole, which facilitates the design and manufacture of the reinforcing rib plate 4014 and even the mounting base 401, but also can utilize the connection support of each support plate 40141 to the mounting post 4013 at different angles, so as to ensure the connection reinforcing effect of the reinforcing rib plate 4014, help improve the reliability of the mounting post 4013 arranged in the mounting base 401, and is beneficial to improving the installation stability of the ladder 1 on the mounting base 401.

[0048] In specific implementation, it is worth noting that still referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 as shown therein, preferably, in this embodiment, there can be two mounting posts 4013 arranged at intervals in the housing 4011, each mounting post 4013 is provided with a ladder mounting hole 401a for mounting the ladder 1, and each mounting post 4013 is also arranged in the housing 4011 through the corresponding reinforcing rib plate 4014. Meanwhile, on the basis that two mounting posts 4013 are provided and the reinforcing rib plate 4014 is of a "star" structure, in order to further increase the structural strength of the mounting base 401, for example, a partition plate located between the two mounting posts 4013 can also be arranged in the housing 4011, and part of the support plates 40141 in each reinforcing rib plate 4014 can be connected to the partition plate.

[0049] Continuing as shown in Figures 3 to 6 , in some exemplary implementations, the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment may for example further include a stamping-formed mounting bracket 402, and the mounting base 401 is fixed to the side pillar 3 through this mounting bracket 402.

[0050] At this time, it can be understood that by providing the stamping-formed mounting bracket 402 and making the mounting base 401 fixed to the side pillar 3 through the mounting bracket 402, on the one hand, this embodiment can rely on the adapter function of the mounting bracket 402 to facilitate the fixed arrangement of the cast-formed mounting base 401 on the side pillar 3, on the other hand, this embodiment can obviously also utilize the stamping forming of the mounting bracket 402 to facilitate its design and manufacture, which helps reduce the design and manufacturing cost of the mounting structure.

[0051] In specific implementation, based on the stamping forming of the mounting bracket 402, it is generally a steel sheet metal part, and the mounting bracket 402 and the side pillar 3 can usually be connected together by welding, so as to ensure the connection strength between the mounting bracket 402 and the side pillar 3, and further ensure the stability of the arrangement of the entire ladder mounting structure on the side pillar 3.

[0052] In this embodiment, based on the aforementioned mounting bracket 402, in some exemplary implementations, and further combined with... Figures 6 to 10 As shown, a bracket connection hole 401b may be provided on the mounting post 4013, and the mounting base 401 and the mounting bracket 402 can be fixed together by a connector 6. Specifically, the connector 6 passes through the connection through hole 402a on the mounting bracket 402 and is fixed in the bracket connection hole 401b.

[0053] It is understandable that by providing a bracket connection hole 401b on the mounting post 4013 in the mounting base 401 and a connection through hole 402a on the mounting bracket 402, and connecting the mounting bracket 402 and the mounting base 401 together through the connector 6 passing through the connection through hole 402a and fixed in the bracket connection hole 401b, it has the advantages of simple structure, easy design, molding and connection operation. At the same time, it obviously facilitates the connection between the mounting base 401 and the mounting bracket 402, and also helps to ensure the reliability of the connection between the mounting bracket 402 and the mounting base 401.

[0054] In specific implementation, it is worth noting that, as a preferred embodiment, the aforementioned connector 6 can be, for example, a bolt, so that the connection between the mounting bracket 402 and the mounting base 401 is achieved by screwing.

[0055] When bolts are used for connector 6, in order to achieve the screw connection of connector 6 in bracket connection hole 401b, a threaded sleeve can generally be embedded in bracket connection hole 401b on the basis of casting mounting base 401, so as to use the screw connection between threaded sleeve and connector 6 to fix mounting bracket 402 and mounting base 401 together.

[0056] In this embodiment, the connecting member 6 can be a bolt. It should be noted that, as a preferred embodiment, the mounting member 5 can also generally be a bolt. In order to realize the screw connection of the mounting member 5 in the ladder mounting hole 401a on the mounting base 401, a threaded sleeve can be embedded in the ladder mounting hole 401a in the specific implementation, so as to use the screw connection between the threaded sleeve and the mounting member 5 to fix the ladder 1 and the mounting base 401 together.

[0057] In this embodiment, since both the ladder mounting hole 401a and the bracket connection hole 401b are provided on the mounting post 4013, in some exemplary embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 As shown, for example, the bracket connection hole 401b on the same mounting column 4013 can be coaxially arranged with the ladder mounting hole 401a, and a partition structure 4015 separating the bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a can also be provided in the mounting column 4013.

[0058] This arrangement makes the bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a coaxially aligned, and a partition structure 4015 is provided in the mounting column 4013 to separate the coaxially aligned bracket connection hole 401b and ladder mounting hole 401a. It can be understood that, on the one hand, the coaxial alignment of the bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a simplifies the structure of the mounting column 4013, that is, the mounting base 401, and facilitates the design and manufacture of the mounting base 401.

[0059] On the other hand, by setting a partition structure 4015 to separate the bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a, it is possible to prevent external water from entering the vehicle side panel through the ladder mounting hole 401a and the bracket connection hole 401b, based on the fact that the bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a are coaxially arranged, thereby helping to improve the sealing of the ladder mounting position.

[0060] In specific implementation, it is worth noting that, based on the above, the mounting column 4013 in the mounting base 401 can be two, and a ladder mounting hole 401a can be provided on each mounting column 4013. In this case, in order to ensure the reliability of the connection between the mounting base 401 and the mounting bracket 402, a bracket connection hole 401b can also be provided on each mounting column 4013.

[0061] Furthermore, when each mounting post 4013 is provided with both a ladder mounting hole 401a and a bracket connection hole 401b, the ladder mounting hole 401a and the bracket connection hole 401b on each mounting post 4013 are naturally coaxially arranged and separated by a partition structure 4015. The partition structure 4015 is integrally formed within the mounting post 4013 during the casting of the mounting base 401.

[0062] In this embodiment, we continue to combine Figure 10 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the mounting bracket 402 may be, for example, U-shaped and has a bracket body 4021 and two arms 4022 connected to the bracket body 4021.

[0063] The aforementioned bracket connection hole 402a is provided on the bracket body 4021, thereby connecting the mounting base 401 to the middle part of the mounting bracket 402, i.e., the bracket body 4021. The two ends of the mounting bracket 402, i.e., the two support arms 4022, are connected to the side wall columns 3, and after being connected to the side wall columns 3, they combine... Figure 3 As shown, a cavity Q is also formed between the mounting bracket 402 and the side column 3.

[0064] At this time, by adopting a "几"-shaped structure for the mounting bracket 402, connecting the mounting base 401 to the bracket main body 4021 at the middle part of the mounting bracket 402, and connecting the two arms 4022 of the mounting bracket 402 to the side pillar 3, a cavity Q is formed between the mounting bracket 402 and the side pillar 3. It can be understood that this not only facilitates the connection between the mounting base 401 and the mounting bracket 402, as well as the connection between the mounting bracket 402 and the side pillar 3, but also utilizes the high structural strength characteristics of the "几" shape and the cavity structure to increase the structural strength of the mounting bracket 402 itself, thereby helping to improve the stability of the fixed arrangement of the mounting base 401 on the side pillar 3, and being beneficial to improving the stability of the installation of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body.

[0065] In specific implementation, based on the fact that the mounting bracket 402 has a "几"-shaped structure and is provided with the bracket main body 4021 and the arms 4022, in order to further increase the structural strength of the mounting bracket 402, for example, it can still be as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 10 , reinforcing ribs are provided at the positions between the bracket main body 4021 and each of the arms 4022 and on each of the arms 4022, so as to achieve the effect of improving the structural strength of the mounting bracket 402 by the arrangement of the reinforcing ribs.

[0066] In this embodiment, still in conjunction with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 , in some exemplary implementation forms, the mounting base 401 may be provided with a blocking plate 4012, for example. The blocking plate 4012 is located at an end of the mounting base 401 close to the side outer panel 2, and is used for blocking the end of the housing 4011 close to the side outer panel 2. A ladder mounting hole 401a for mounting the ladder 1 is arranged to penetrate through the blocking plate 4012.

[0067] In addition, the blocking plate 4012 described above is also designed to follow the shape of the side outer panel 2 so as to fit with the inner wall of the side outer panel 2, and a sealant is provided between the blocking plate 4012 and the inner wall of the side outer panel 2.

[0068] Thus, by providing the blocking plate 4012 at the end of the mounting base 401 close to the side outer panel 2, making the blocking plate 4012 fit with the inner wall of the side outer panel 2, and arranging the sealant between the blocking plate 4012 and the inner wall of the side outer panel 2, it is apparent that this embodiment can utilize the design that the end of the mounting base 401 follows the shape of the side outer panel 2, so that the mounting base 401 can provide good supporting effect for the side outer panel 2, and further effectively avoid problems such as collapse of the side outer panel 2 when the ladder 1 is installed, which helps to ensure the appearance quality of the vehicle body.

[0069] Meanwhile, by providing sealant between the blocking plate 4012 and the inner wall of the side outer panel 2, it can be understood that this embodiment can also effectively seal the gap between the mounting base 401 and the side outer panel 2, preventing external water from flowing into the interior of the vehicle side panel through the mounting hole 201 on the side outer panel 2, which is beneficial to improving the sealing of the ladder 1 mounting position.

[0070] In practical implementation, the above-mentioned sealant can be a product commonly used in vehicles that has good adhesion and weather resistance.

[0071] Still Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 As shown in the figure, in some exemplary embodiments, the ladder mounting structure of this embodiment may further include, for example, a mounting support 403 disposed on the outside of the side panel 2.

[0072] The mounting bracket 403 is arranged corresponding to the mounting base 401, and the mounting member 5 passes through the through hole 403a on the mounting bracket 403, while the installed ladder 1 is supported on the mounting bracket 403.

[0073] Thus, by providing a mounting bracket 403 corresponding to the mounting seat 401 on the outer side of the side panel 2, the mounting component 5 passes through the through hole 403a on the mounting bracket 403, and the installed ladder 1 is supported on the mounting bracket 403. It can be understood that, under the support of the mounting seat 401 on the inner side of the side panel 2, and with the support of the mounting bracket 403 on the outer side of the side panel 2, a certain distance is maintained between the installed ladder 1 and the vehicle side panel. This not only facilitates the use of the ladder 1 and improves its practicality, but also helps to avoid bumping the vehicle side panel when using the ladder 1, thus preventing damage to the vehicle's appearance, and also improves the quality of use of the ladder 1.

[0074] In specific implementation, it is worth noting that we should continue to combine... Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the mounting bracket 403 can also be a cast aluminum alloy or magnesium alloy structure, or in addition to being a metal part, it is also possible to make the mounting bracket 403 an injection molded plastic part. However, it should be noted that when using injection molded parts, the mounting bracket 403 should be made of plastic with good structural performance and weather resistance.

[0075] Meanwhile, regardless of whether cast metal parts or injection-molded plastic parts are used, the mounting bracket 403 in this embodiment can also be, for example, as shown in the example... Figure 11 The structure shown is hollow, and through holes 403a can be provided on the mounting support 403, for example, similar to the mounting post 4013 and reinforcing rib plate 4014 in the mounting base 401 described above.

[0076] In this embodiment, based on the above-mentioned mounting bracket 403, in some exemplary implementations, for example, the end of the mounting bracket 403 near the outer wall of the side panel 2 can be attached to the outer wall of the side panel 2, and a sealing gasket 404 can be provided between the mounting bracket 403 and the side panel 2.

[0077] At this time, by making the end of the mounting bracket 403 close to the outer wall of the side panel 2 fit against the outer wall of the side panel 2, and by setting a sealing gasket 404 between the mounting bracket 403 and the side panel 2, it can be understood that this not only utilizes the design of the end of the mounting bracket 403 conforming to the side panel 2 to avoid problems such as the side panel 2 collapsing due to the force on the mounting bracket 403 during the installation and use of the ladder 1, but also helps to ensure the appearance quality of the vehicle body.

[0078] At the same time, by using the sealing gasket 404 set between the mounting bracket 403 and the outer side panel 2, this embodiment can also prevent external water from flowing into the interior of the vehicle side panel through the gap between the mounting bracket 403 and the outer side panel 2 and the mounting through hole 201 on the outer side panel 2, which is beneficial to improving the sealing of the ladder 1 installation position.

[0079] In specific implementation, the aforementioned sealing gasket 404 can be, for example, a gasket product of model PNG8100 or PNG8302 from Bode Seals. In addition to using such gasket products, it is also possible to use other gasket products with good sealing performance and weather resistance for the sealing gasket 404.

[0080] It is worth noting that, regarding the ladder installation structure of this embodiment, based on the above exemplary implementations, in specific implementation, as a preferred embodiment, it is still based on... Figures 1 to 12 As shown, for example, the ladder 1 can be installed at the rear of the vehicle body by means of the mounting member 5, and structurally, it includes a mounting seat 401 and a mounting bracket 402 disposed between the side pillar 3 and the side outer panel 2 in the vehicle body, and also includes a mounting support 403 disposed on the outside of the side outer panel 2 corresponding to the mounting seat 401.

[0081] The mounting base 401 is cast and fixed to the side column 3 by the mounting bracket 402. The mounting base 401 has a housing 4011 and a mounting column 4013 set inside the housing 4011 by a reinforcing rib plate 4014. The mounting column 4013 is provided with a ladder mounting hole 401a and a bracket connection hole 401b. The mounting component 5 passes through the mounting through hole 201 on the side outer plate 2 and is fixed in the ladder mounting hole 401a. The mounting bracket 402 is also fixed to the mounting base 401 by a connector 6 passing through its own connection through hole 402a and fixed in the bracket connection hole 401b.

[0082] The bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a are coaxially arranged, and a partition structure 4015 is provided inside the mounting column 4013 to separate the bracket connection hole 401b and the ladder mounting hole 401a. The mounting bracket 402 is U-shaped, the mounting base 401 is connected to the middle of the mounting bracket 402, the two ends of the mounting bracket 402 are connected to the side column 3, and a cavity Q is formed between the mounting bracket 402 and the side column 3.

[0083] In addition, a blocking plate 4012 is provided at one end of the mounting base 401 near the side outer panel 2. The blocking plate 4012 is attached to the inner wall of the side outer panel 2, and a sealant is provided between the blocking plate 4012 and the inner wall of the side outer panel 2.

[0084] In addition, the mounting component 5 passes through the through hole 403a on the mounting support 403, so that the ladder 1 after installation is supported on the mounting support 403, and the end of the mounting support 403 near the side outer panel 2 is also attached to the outer wall of the side outer panel 2. At the same time, a sealing gasket 404 is provided between the mounting support 403 and the side outer panel 2.

[0085] In the preferred embodiment of the above ladder installation structure, the specific settings and arrangements of the mounting base 401, mounting bracket 402, mounting support 403, and sealing gasket 404 can still be referred to the descriptions in the above exemplary embodiments. Furthermore, in this preferred embodiment, the beneficial effects brought about by the design of the mounting base 401, mounting bracket 402, mounting support 403, and sealing gasket 404 can also be referred to the descriptions in the above exemplary embodiments.

[0086] Meanwhile, taking the ladder installation structure in the preferred embodiment above as an example, it should be noted that the ladder 1 installed by this ladder installation structure can adopt a conventional structure, and combined with Figure 1 as well as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, as an example, ladder 1 may have vertical bars on both sides and multiple horizontal bars connecting the two vertical bars. To facilitate the installation of ladder 1, a mounting plate may also be connected between the tops of the two vertical bars. The aforementioned mounting component 5 passes through the mounting plate, and the ladder 1 is fixed to the vehicle body as a whole through the mounting plate.

[0087] The ladder installation structure of this embodiment adopts the above design, which can realize the installation of ladder 1 on the vehicle body, especially at the rear of the vehicle body. It can also improve the installation strength of ladder 1 on the vehicle body and improve the reliability of ladder 1, thus improving the installation and use quality of ladder 1 on the vehicle.

[0088] An embodiment of the second aspect of this application provides a vehicle having a ladder mounting structure as described in the first aspect embodiment above on its body.

[0089] In this embodiment of the vehicle, as mentioned in the first aspect of the embodiment above, the ladder 1 is preferably installed at the rear of the vehicle body through the ladder mounting structure to form a roof-climbing auxiliary structure that can reach the roof directly from the rear of the vehicle.

[0090] In this embodiment, the vehicle can be equipped with the above-mentioned ladder installation structure to assist users in climbing onto the roof. This also improves the installation strength of the ladder 1 on the vehicle body and enhances the reliability of the ladder 1. It is beneficial to improve the installation quality and usage quality of the ladder 1 on the vehicle and has good practicality.
