Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive manufacturing technology, and in particular to a fixed bracket and a vehicle wiring harness. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, plastic brackets are widely used in automotive wiring harnesses to fix and protect them. Typically, the connectors on automotive wiring harnesses need to be fixed to the plastic brackets, and the mating connectors are designed as a single unit on the plastic brackets.
[0003] The fact that the connector and the plastic bracket are integrated into one structure makes the manufacturing mold of the plastic bracket itself more complex, which not only increases the difficulty of mold development, but also increases the design and manufacturing cost of the mold. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a fixed bracket and a vehicle wiring harness, which reduces the difficulty of developing molds and the manufacturing cost of the fixed bracket, thereby at least partially solving the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, according to a first aspect of this application, a fixing bracket is provided, comprising: The bracket body has mounting holes; A fastener, a portion of which is detachably disposed within the mounting hole; The bracket body is used to connect to the vehicle body, and the fastener is used to connect to the wiring harness connector.
[0006] According to a second aspect of this application, a vehicle wiring harness is provided, including the mounting bracket described in any one of the foregoing claims.
[0007] The fixed bracket in this embodiment includes a bracket body and a fixing component. The bracket body is designed to connect to the vehicle body, and the fixing component is used to connect to the wire harness connector. The bracket body has mounting holes, and a portion of the fixing component is detachably disposed within the mounting holes. As can be seen from the above technical solution, when the fixing component is assembled with the bracket body through the mounting holes, the wire harness connector connected to the fixing component will simultaneously form a stable connection with the bracket body, satisfying both the wire harness fixing requirements and ensuring the stability of the connector. That is, the fixing component and the bracket body are detachably connected; the wire harness connector is indirectly connected to the bracket body through the fixing component, and the two are no longer an integral structure. Therefore, the bracket body and the fixing component can be designed separately and molded separately. When it is necessary to change the connector model, it is not necessary to modify the bracket body mold; only the corresponding fixing component needs to be replaced, thereby reducing costs.

[0016] The following disclosure provides many different implementations or examples for carrying out different structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure of this application, the components and arrangements of specific examples are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit this application.
[0017] Currently, plastic brackets are widely used in automotive wiring harnesses to fix and protect them. Typically, the connectors on automotive wiring harnesses need to be fixed to the plastic brackets, and the mating connectors are designed as a single unit on the plastic brackets.
[0018] The unibody design of the connector and the plastic bracket complicates the manufacturing process of the plastic bracket, increasing both the difficulty of mold development and the design and manufacturing costs. Furthermore, when adjustments to the connector are needed (such as changing the model or adjusting the installation position), the connector itself cannot be modified; the existing mold for the plastic bracket must be completely reworked. This process not only occupies additional production time, causing delays, but also increases mold repair costs.
[0019] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a fixing bracket to solve at least part of the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0020] It should be noted that in the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this application, the arrow marked X represents the first direction X, the arrow marked Y represents the second direction Y, and the arrow marked Z represents the third direction Z. The description of this application introduces the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z to more clearly illustrate the structure and relative positional relationship of the fixed bracket. In practical applications, the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z can point to any direction in space. For ease of understanding, this application uses the first direction X as the thickness direction of the fixed bracket, the second direction Y as the length direction of the fixed bracket, and the third direction Z as the width direction of the fixed bracket as an example for explanation. In practical applications, the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.
[0021] According to a first aspect of this application, a fixing bracket is provided; please refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This mounting bracket includes a bracket body 100 and a fixing member 200. The bracket body 100 serves as a basic load-bearing structure and functions to connect to the vehicle body. The fixing member 200 is used to connect to the wiring harness connector and plays a role in positioning and fixing the wiring harness connector. The bracket body 100 has a mounting hole 110, and a portion of the fixing member 200 is detachably disposed within the mounting hole 110. Specifically, the fixing member 200 connects to the bracket body 100 through the mounting hole 110, thereby connecting the wiring harness connector attached to the fixing member 200 to the bracket body 100. Furthermore, since a portion of the fixing member 200 is detachably disposed within the mounting hole 110, the fixing member 200 and the bracket body 100 are detachably connected, and thus the wiring harness connector attached to the fixing member 200 is also detachably connected to the bracket body 100.
[0022] As can be seen from the above technical solution, after the fixing component 200 is assembled with the bracket body 100 through the mounting hole 110, the wire harness connector connected to the fixing component 200 will simultaneously form a stable connection with the bracket body 100, satisfying both the wire harness fixing requirements and ensuring the stability of the connector. In other words, the fixing component 200 and the bracket body 100 are detachably connected. The wire harness connector is indirectly connected to the bracket body 100 through the fixing component 200, and the two are no longer a single structure. Therefore, the bracket body 100 and the fixing component 200 can be designed separately and molded independently. When it is necessary to change the connector model, there is no need to modify the mold of the bracket body 100; only the corresponding fixing component 200 needs to be replaced, thus reducing costs.
[0023] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The structure of the bracket body 100 is further optimized, specifically including a first side plate 120 and a second side plate 130 arranged opposite to each other along the first direction X, and at least one of the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130 is provided with a mounting hole 110. It should be noted that the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130 are two side plates of the bracket body 100 arranged opposite to each other in the first direction X. Specifically, mounting holes 110 can be formed on the first side plate 120, and fasteners 200 can be detachably connected to the first side plate 120 through mounting holes 110 on the first side plate 120; mounting holes 110 can also be formed on the second side plate 130, and fasteners 200 can be detachably connected to the second side plate 130 through mounting holes 110 on the second side plate 130; mounting holes 110 can be formed on both the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, with some fasteners 200 being detachably connected to the first side plate 120 through mounting holes 110 on the first side plate 120, and other fasteners 200 being detachably connected to the second side plate 130 through mounting holes 110 on the second side plate 130.
[0024] The structure of the fastener 200 is also correspondingly adapted, specifically including a hook 210 and a fixing body 220. One end of the hook 210 is detachably disposed in the mounting hole 110, and the fixing body 220 is disposed at the other end of the hook 210, and can fit against the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130 with the mounting hole 110. It should be noted that the hook 210 has a certain degree of elasticity. During assembly, the hook 210 can pass through the mounting hole 110. During the passing process, the hook 210 will deform to smoothly pass through the mounting hole 110. After the end of the hook 210 away from the fixing body 220 has completely passed through the mounting hole 110, the hook 210 will return to its initial state, and then the hook 210 can be engaged with the side of the first side plate 120 facing the second side plate 130, or the hook 210 can be engaged with the side of the second side plate 130 facing the first side plate 120. When it is necessary to disassemble the fastener 200, simply bend the lug 210 to deform it and then remove it from the mounting hole 110. That is, the lug 210 enables the fastener 200 to be partially detachably installed in the mounting hole 110. When the lug 210 is engaged with the side of the first side plate 120 facing the second side plate 130, or when the lug 210 is engaged with the side of the second side plate 130 facing the first side plate 120, the side of the fixing body 220 connected to the lug 210 fits against the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130 with the mounting hole 110, thereby ensuring that the fastener 200 is reliably fixed on the bracket body 100.
[0025] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the bracket body 100, with mounting holes 110 provided in at least one of the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, can flexibly adapt to the installation requirements of different wire harness connectors and improve installation flexibility. The fixing component 200 includes a hook 210 and a fixing body 220. The elasticity of the hook 210 enables stable engagement and convenient disassembly, balancing connection stability and disassembly. At the same time, the separate design of the bracket body 100 and the fixing component 200 simplifies mold development and reduces manufacturing costs. When the installation model and position of the wire harness connector need to be changed, there is no need to modify the mold. Only the fixing component 200 that is compatible with the corresponding model connector needs to be replaced, or the installation position of the fixing component 200 needs to be adjusted, which greatly reduces costs.
[0026] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4The lug 210 includes a connecting portion 211 and a bending portion 212. The connecting portion 211 is connected to the side of the fixing body 220 facing the bracket body 100, and extends in a direction away from the fixing body 220. The connecting portion 211 can pass through the mounting hole 110. One end of the bending portion 212 is connected to the end of the connecting portion 211 away from the fixing body 220, and the other end of the bending portion 212 extends towards the fixing body 220. It should be noted that the connecting portion 211 and the bending portion 212 form a hook-like structure. The connection between the connecting portion 211 and the bending portion 212 is smoothly transitioned to facilitate the bending of the bending portion 212.
[0027] During assembly, the bent portion 212 and part of the connecting portion 211 can pass through the mounting hole 110. During the insertion process, the bent portion 212 will gradually approach the connecting portion 211 along the second direction Y, that is, the lug 210 will deform. After the bent portion 212 has completely passed through the mounting hole 110, the bent portion 212 will return to its initial state, and then the bent portion 212 can engage with the side of the first side plate 120 facing the second side plate 130, or the bent portion 212 can engage with the side of the second side plate 130 facing the first side plate 120. When it is necessary to remove the fastener 200, the bent portion 212 is bent and gradually brought closer to the connecting portion 211 until it can be withdrawn from the mounting hole 110. That is, the cooperation between the bent portion 212 and the connecting portion 211 enables the fastener 200 to be partially detachably installed in the mounting hole 110. When the bent portion 212 engages with the side of the first side plate 120 facing the second side plate 130, or when the bent portion 212 engages with the side of the second side plate 130 facing the first side plate 120, the side of the fixing body 220 connected to the connecting portion 211 fits against the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130 with the mounting hole 110, thereby ensuring that the fixing member 200 is reliably fixed on the bracket body 100.
[0028] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 While the lug 210 can position the fastener 200 and the bracket body 100 in the first direction X, preventing the fastener 200 from detaching from the bracket body 100 in the assembled state, it lacks positional constraint on the fastener 200 and the bracket body 100 in the second direction Y and the third direction Z. In actual use, the connecting part 211 is prone to wobbling within the mounting hole 110, which may affect the stability of the wire harness connector. To address this, a limiting part 213 is provided at the end of the bent part 212 away from the connecting part 211, and the limiting part 213 extends toward the fixing body 220, allowing the limiting part 213 to abut against the wall of the mounting hole 110 during assembly.
[0029] It should be noted that the end of the bent portion 212 away from the connecting portion 211 is the same as the end of the bent portion 212 near the fixing body 220; these are different descriptions of the same location. The limiting portion 213 can be plate-shaped, and the plate-shaped limiting portion 213 extends towards the fixing body 220. Specifically, when the bent portion 212 completely penetrates the mounting hole 110, the limiting portion 213 will not completely detach from the mounting hole 110. Due to the elastic properties of the lug 210, the limiting portion 213 will abut against the wall of the mounting hole 110; at the same time, the connecting portion 211 will also abut against the wall of the mounting hole 110, and the direction of the force exerted by the limiting portion 213 on the wall of the mounting hole 110 is opposite to the direction of the force exerted by the connecting portion 211 on the wall of the mounting hole 110. This reverse force design can form a stable force balance structure inside the mounting hole 110, fundamentally suppressing the shaking of the connection part 211 inside the mounting hole 110, and greatly improving the stability of the connection between the fastener 200 and the bracket body 100.
[0030] In some examples, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the second direction Y, the limiting part 213 is located at the edge of the bending part 212 near the connecting part 211, forming an angle with the end face of the bending part 212 near the fixing body 220, and the opening direction of the angle is away from the connecting part 211. Taking the mounting hole 110 on the first side plate 120 as an example, when the bending part 212 completely penetrates the mounting hole 110, the end face of the bending part 212 near the fixing body 220 can limit the position of the fixing member 200 and the first side plate 120 in the first direction X, preventing the fixing member 200 from separating from the first side plate 120; the abutment of the limiting part 213 with the hole wall of the mounting hole 110 and the abutment of the connecting part 211 with the hole wall of the mounting hole 110, combined with the force balance formed by the opposing forces of the two, further constrain the movement space of the fixing member 200 in the second direction Y and the third direction Z. Finally, through the limiting in the first direction X and the force balance constraint between the second direction Y and the third direction Z, the position of the fixing member 200 and the bracket body 100 in three-dimensional space is limited, ensuring that the fixing member 200 always remains stable, providing a solid guarantee for the reliable operation of the wire harness connector.
[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, considering the complexity of actual vehicle wiring harness systems, multiple wiring harness connectors often need to be installed simultaneously on the same mounting bracket to meet the requirements of multi-circuit electrical connections. To adapt to this usage scenario, the mounting bracket has multiple sets of mounting holes 110, which are spaced apart on at least one of the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, providing a basic condition for the synchronous fixing of multiple connectors.
[0032] In terms of specific arrangement, when multiple sets of mounting holes 110 are provided on the first side plate 120, the multiple sets of mounting holes 110 are arranged at intervals along the second direction Y; when multiple sets of mounting holes 110 are provided on the second side plate 130, the multiple sets of mounting holes 110 are also arranged at intervals along the second direction Y; when multiple sets of mounting holes 110 are provided on both the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, the multiple sets of mounting holes 110 on the first side plate 120 and the multiple sets of mounting holes 110 on the second side plate 130 are all arranged at intervals along the second direction Y. This arrangement at intervals along the same direction can ensure the regularity of the mounting hole 110 layout, facilitate quick positioning during later assembly, and flexibly plan the interval distance between adjacent sets of mounting holes 110 according to the actual size and spacing requirements of the wire harness connector, adapting to the installation requirements of different specifications of connectors.
[0033] Correspondingly, there are multiple fasteners 200, and any one fastener 200 can be adapted to any set of mounting holes 110. That is, the lugs 210 of each fastener 200 can be independently and detachably assembled into any set of mounting holes 110. In other words, each fastener 200 connected to a wire harness connector can flexibly select a set of mounting holes 110 to form a stable connection with the bracket body 100. Multiple sets of mounting holes 110 provide a flexibly selectable universal fixing position for multiple connectors, ensuring that multiple connectors are arranged in an orderly manner on the bracket body 100.
[0034] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the universal compatibility design of multiple sets of mounting holes 110 and fasteners 200 gives the mounting bracket good flexibility and adaptability: On the one hand, when it is necessary to change the model of the wire harness connector, no modification is required to the bracket body 100. Simply remove the original fastener 200, replace it with a fastener 200 that is compatible with the new model connector, and then assemble the new fastener 200 into the required set of mounting holes 110, which greatly reduces the difficulty and cost of model replacement; on the other hand, when it is necessary to adjust the position of the connector, the fastener 200 can be directly removed from the current set of mounting holes 110 and reassembled into the required set of mounting holes 110. By changing the installation position of the fastener 200, the flexible adjustment of the connector layout can be achieved.
[0035] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, to further improve the stability of the connection between the fastener 200 and the bracket body 100, the structure of the mounting hole 110 is optimized. Specifically, the mounting hole 110 has at least two mounting sub-holes 111, which are spaced apart along the second direction Y. Correspondingly, the fastener 200 is provided with at least two lugs 210, which are spaced apart along the second direction Y. Each lug 210 can be independently and detachably assembled into a mounting sub-hole 111. Through the connection of multiple lugs 210 corresponding to multiple mounting sub-holes 111, a multi-point fixing structure is formed.
[0036] It should be noted that when the mounting hole 110 has two mounting sub-holes 111, the spacing between the two mounting sub-holes 111 is determined based on the size of the fastener 200, the distribution of the lugs 210, and the actual stress requirements. This ensures that after the fastener 200 is assembled, the two lugs 210 can respectively mate with their corresponding mounting sub-holes 111. This spacing provides independent assembly space for the lugs 210 and also disperses the external force on the fastener 200 through two-point support, reducing the load borne by a single mounting sub-hole 111.
[0037] The at least two lugs 210 of the fastener 200 have the same structure as the aforementioned lugs 210, each including a connecting portion 211 and a bending portion 212, and possessing a certain degree of elasticity. They can be deformed to pass through the mounting sub-holes 111 and return to their original shape after assembly to form a snap-fit. During assembly, each lug 210 of the fastener 200 corresponds to one mounting sub-hole 111, and the bending portions 212 of the two lugs 210 correspond to and pass through one mounting sub-hole 111 respectively. Once both lugs 210 abut against the wall of the mounting sub-hole 111, the fastener 200 is connected to the bracket body 100. During disassembly, the two lugs 210 are bent to deform them, allowing them to be removed from the corresponding mounting sub-holes 111, making the operation convenient.
[0038] Specifically, the two lugs 210 on the same fastener 200 are arranged opposite to each other. That is, the bent portion 212 of any lug 210 is located on the side of the connecting portion 211 of that lug 210 that is opposite to the other lug 210. This arrangement not only avoids interference during the disassembly of the two lugs 210, making disassembly convenient, but also forms a more stable force balance structure through the reverse abutment force after assembly, further limiting the displacement of the fastener 200 and enhancing the overall reliability of the connection between the fastener 200 and the bracket body 100.
[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the structure of the bracket body 100 is further improved. In addition to the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130 arranged opposite each other along the first direction X, it also includes two third side plates 140 arranged opposite each other along the second direction Y. The two third side plates 140 are respectively connected to the two ends of the first side plate 120 and the two ends of the second side plate 130, so that the two third side plates 140, the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130 together form a receiving cavity 150. This receiving cavity 150 is in communication with the mounting hole 110 opened on the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130. When the lug 210 is assembled through the mounting sub-hole 111, the bent part 212 of the lug 210 is completely accommodated in the receiving cavity 150, and only the connecting part 211 and the connecting end of the fixing body 220 are connected to the fixing body 220 in the mounting hole 110. The receiving cavity 150 can provide physical protection for the lug 210, indirectly improving the stability of the connection between the fixing member 200 and the bracket body 100.
[0040] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 To enhance the structural strength of the support body 100 and prevent deformation of the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130 under stress during assembly, the support body 100 also includes a reinforcing part 160. One end of the reinforcing part 160 is fixedly connected to the first side plate 120, and the other end of the reinforcing part 160 is fixedly connected to the second side plate 130. By being horizontally disposed between the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, a supporting structure for the support body 100 is formed, and the receiving cavity 150 is divided into at least two receiving sub-cavities 151.
[0041] It should be noted that the reinforcing part 160 may be a plate-like structure. There may be multiple reinforcing parts 160, which are spaced apart along the second direction Y to further enhance the structural strength of the support body 100.
[0042] Specifically, taking a scenario where the first side plate 120 has a mounting hole 110 (the mounting hole 110 has two mounting sub-holes 111) as an example, the end of the reinforcing part 160 connected to the first side plate 120 is located between the two mounting sub-holes 111 of this mounting hole 110. This not only avoids interfering with the assembly operation of the lug 210 passing through the mounting sub-holes 111, but also provides targeted reinforcement to the area surrounding the mounting sub-holes 111. Because when assembling the fastener 200, it is necessary to press the two lugs 210 simultaneously through the corresponding mounting sub-holes 111. During this process, the fastener 200 will exert a force on the first side plate 120 towards the second side plate 130, which may easily cause the first side plate 120 to bend towards the second side plate 130. Long-term or repeated assembly may affect the structural stability of the first side plate 120.
[0043] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the reinforcing part 160 located between the two mounting holes 111 can provide rigid support for this area of the first side plate 120 and / or the second side plate 130. When the first side plate 120 and / or the second side plate 130 tend to bend due to the pressure of the lug 210, the reinforcing part 160 will prevent such deformation through its own structural strength, and transfer the force on the first side plate 120 and / or the second side plate 130 to the second side plate 130, thus achieving force balance. In addition, the reinforcing part 160 can also enhance the connection stability between the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, prevent the bracket body 100 from becoming loose due to local stress, and ensure that even if the fastener 200 is assembled and disassembled for a long time, the bracket body 100 can still maintain a stable structural shape, providing a reliable basis for the cooperation between the lug 210 and the mounting hole 111, and indirectly ensuring the long-term stability of the connection between the fastener 200 and the bracket body 100.
[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a latch 230 is added to achieve a stable connection between the fastener 200 and the wire harness connector. The latch 230 is integrally formed or fixedly installed on the side of the fixing body 220 away from the hanging ear 210, and is located on both sides of the fixing body 220 in the first direction X, forming a connection structure with the bracket body 100 on one side and the wire harness connector on the other side.
[0045] Specifically, the latch 230 can be designed according to the interface specifications and connection requirements of the wire harness connector, and can adopt adaptable structures such as snap-on, slot-type, or hook-type. For example, when the wire harness connector has a corresponding locking hole or protrusion, the latch 230 will be designed as a protrusion or hook that can engage with it. During assembly, simply align the wire harness connector with the latch 230 and press it to quickly lock it in place. Some latches 230 will also be designed with anti-disengagement structures such as barbs or elastic claws, which can prevent the wire harness connector from accidentally coming off due to external forces such as vibration or pulling after locking.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, considering the structural requirements when some models of wire harness connectors are fastened to the fastener 200, the bracket body 100 has at least one clearance opening 170. The clearance opening 170 is opened at the edge of at least one of the first side plate 120 and the second side plate 130, and the clearance opening 170 and the mounting hole 110 are spaced apart in the third direction Z. This not only does not affect the compatibility of the mounting hole 110 and the lug 210, but also provides space clearance for the connection between the wire harness connector and the fastener 200.
[0047] Specifically, for some models of wire harness connectors, when fastened with the fixing member 200, the fixing body 220 needs to have a portion protruding outward along the Z direction to form a protrusion 240. The protrusion 240 is mainly used to open the mounting hole 110 or reserve assembly space to meet the interface installation requirements of the wire harness connector. However, the protrusion 240 increases the overall space occupied. If the first side plate 120 and / or the second side plate 130 of the bracket body 100 are complete structures, the protrusion 240 is prone to physical interference with the edge of the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130. This will not only hinder the normal fastening of the wire harness connector and the fixing member 200, but may also cause structural damage to the protrusion 240, the first side plate 120, or the second side plate 130 during the assembly process, affecting the stability of the connection between the fixing member 200 and the wire harness connector.
[0048] The clearance opening 170 formed on the edge of the first side plate 120 and / or the second side plate 130 can be designed to correspond to the size, shape and extension direction of the protrusion 240, forming a notch space that fits the protrusion 240. When the fastener 200 is assembled with the mounting hole 110 of the bracket body 100 through the lug 210, the presence of the clearance opening 170 prevents the protrusion 240 from directly contacting the edge of the first side plate 120 or the second side plate 130; at the same time, the clearance opening 170 can also reserve sufficient space for the fastening operation of the wire harness connector and the fastener 200, ensuring that the operator can smoothly complete the alignment and fastening of the two without worrying about the first side plate 120 and / or the second side plate 130 blocking or obstructing.
