Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe clamp technology, specifically a pipe clamp for fixing a support rod of an automobile hood. Background Technology

[0002] The hood support rod is an important component of the car engine hood (commonly known as the "hood"). Its main function is to provide a reliable force to keep the hood in the open position, ensuring that the hood can be stably kept in the fully open position during vehicle maintenance, routine inspections, cleaning, or parts replacement, providing operators with a safe, open, and stable working space.

[0003] Traditional support rod fixing methods mostly use simple clips or bolts. When using a pure clip structure, the clips are prone to aging and loosening due to long-term use or vibration, causing the support rod to accidentally fall off when supporting the hood. The sudden closing of the hood may cause personal injury or equipment damage. If bolt fixing is used, although the connection is more secure, the installation and disassembly process is cumbersome and not convenient for quick operation. In addition, the bolt head is prone to wear due to frequent disassembly and assembly, affecting the reliability of the connection. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fixing clamp for a car hood support rod, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A fixing clamp for a car hood support rod includes a body assembly, which has an assembly structure for cooperating with the car body. The end of the body assembly has a support rod socket for inserting the end of the hood support rod. A connector is provided on one side of the body assembly. The end of the connector facing away from the body assembly is connected to a clamp body. The clamp body for engaging the hood support rod is an open structure.

[0006] To enhance the connection stability between the body assembly and the body, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the assembly structure on the body assembly includes petal grooves, and multiple petal grooves are arranged in a circumferential array along the circumferential direction of the support rod insertion on the body assembly.

[0007] To facilitate quick engagement and positioning of the body assembly parts with the body, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model: the body assembly parts are provided with engagement grooves for engaging with the body, and the opening of the support rod insertion port is chamfered.

[0008] To prevent the hood support rod from accidentally coming out of the clamp body, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the clamp body has a U-shaped opening structure, and two inwardly buckling anti-detachment protrusions are provided at the edge of the opening of the clamp body.

[0009] To facilitate the insertion of the hood support rod into the clamp body, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model, two anti-detachment protrusions are symmetrically arranged, and the anti-detachment protrusions are provided with inclined fastening surfaces for guiding the hood support rod.

[0010] To improve the overall structural strength and consistency, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the vehicle body fittings, connectors, and pipe clamp bodies are integrally formed into a single structure.

[0011] To increase the clamping force of the support rod socket on the support rod, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner wall of the support rod socket on the vehicle body assembly is provided with multiple anti-slip patterns, and the multiple anti-slip patterns are arranged in a circumferential array.

[0012] To make it easier for the support rod to slide into the interior of the pipe clamp body, as a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the open end of the pipe clamp body extends outward to form an expansion guide section, and the angle between the expansion guide section and the main body of the pipe clamp body is 15°-20°.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1) By setting a structure that combines the support rod socket with the open-type pipe clamp body, the end of the hood support rod and the rod body are double-fixed, which significantly improves the stability of the support rod when supporting the hood.

[0014] 2) By setting petal grooves and snap-fit ​​grooves on the body parts, the tightness of the connection with the body is enhanced, preventing loosening or falling off due to vibration and avoiding scratches on the body paint.

[0015] 3) By setting an anti-detachment protrusion with an inclined buckling surface at the opening of the pipe clamp body, it is not only convenient for the quick installation and disassembly of the support rod, but also effectively prevents it from accidentally detaching, thus improving the safety of use.

[0016] 4) By adopting an integrated molding structure, the production process is simplified and the manufacturing cost is reduced, while the overall strength and durability of the pipe clamp are improved. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1

[0020] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a technical solution: a fixing clamp for a car hood support rod, including a body assembly 1, which is provided with an assembly structure for cooperating with the car body. The end of the body assembly 1 is provided with a support rod socket 9 for inserting the end of the hood support rod. A connector 2 is provided on one side of the body assembly 1. The end of the connector 2 facing away from the body assembly 1 is connected to a clamp body 3. The clamp body 3 for snapping the hood support rod is an open structure.

[0021] The principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: First, the body assembly 1 is fixed to the corresponding position of the body through its assembly structure. Then, the end of the hood support rod is inserted into the support rod socket 9 to achieve initial positioning and fixation. Next, the rod body of the support rod is inserted into the opening of the tube clamp body 3 to complete the overall fixation.

[0022] In this embodiment, the assembly structure on the vehicle body assembly 1 includes petal grooves 6, and multiple petal grooves 6 are arranged in a circumferential array along the circumferential direction of the support rod insertion port 9 on the vehicle body assembly 1.

[0023] The principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution: The design of the petal groove 6 can enhance the tightness of the assembly and the anti-torsion ability, and prevent the pipe clamp from rotating or loosening due to vehicle vibration.

[0024] In this embodiment, the body assembly 1 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 7 for engaging with the body, and the opening of the support rod insertion port 9 is provided with a chamfer 8.

[0025] The principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution: the snap-fit ​​groove 7 facilitates the quick snap-fit ​​of the body assembly 1 into the body mounting position, and the chamfer 8 facilitates the smooth insertion of the support rod end into the support rod socket 9, reducing assembly resistance and wear.

[0026] In this embodiment, the pipe clamp body 3 has a U-shaped opening structure, and two inwardly buckling anti-detachment protrusions 4 are provided at the edge of the opening of the pipe clamp body 3.

[0027] The principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution: The U-shaped structure facilitates the insertion and removal of the support rod, and the anti-detachment protrusion 4 can form a natural lock after the support rod is inserted, preventing it from accidentally falling off during vibration.

[0028] In this embodiment, two anti-detachment protrusions 4 are symmetrically arranged, and the anti-detachment protrusions 4 are provided with inclined buckling surfaces 5 for guiding the engine hood support rod.

[0029] The principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution: the inclined buckle surface 5 can provide guidance when the support rod is installed, making it easier to slide into the pipe clamp body 3. At the same time, it can be removed with a little force, taking into account both the convenience of installation and the reliability of fixation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the vehicle body assembly 1, the connector 2, and the pipe clamp body 3 are integrally formed as a single structure.

[0031] The principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution: The integrated structure can be formed in one step through injection molding or die casting, which not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures that the connection between the components is firm, the overall rigidity is good, and the service life is long.

[0032] The working principle and beneficial effects of Example 1: The fixing clamp, through the assembly structure (such as the petal groove 6 and the snap-fit ​​groove 7) on the vehicle body fitting 1, cooperates with the preset installation position on the vehicle body to achieve quick positioning and stable connection, avoiding displacement or loosening during driving vibrations; when installing the hood support rod, the end of the support rod is first guided into the socket along the chamfer 8 on the support rod socket 9 to form a preliminary axial fixation, restricting its forward and backward movement; subsequently, the rod body of the support rod smoothly snaps into place from the opening of the clamp body 3. The opening width of the U-shaped structure is slightly smaller than the diameter of the rod body, and with the two symmetrically arranged anti-loosening protrusions 4, an elastic clamping force is generated, so that the rod body is stably clamped. The inclined buckle surface 5 on the anti-detachment protrusion 4 serves as a guide during installation, allowing the rod to slide in smoothly. When subjected to a reverse detachment force, the inner buckle structure effectively prevents the rod from accidentally detaching, forming a self-locking anti-detachment mechanism. When the hood support rod is in a fixed state, its end is supported by the support rod socket 9, and the middle of the rod is clamped by the tube clamp body 3, forming a force distribution of "fixed at both ends and limited in the middle", which significantly reduces the swing amplitude of the support rod during vehicle vibration and improves overall stability. The one-piece molded structure ensures the connection strength between the body assembly 1, the connector 2 and the tube clamp body 3, avoiding stress concentration or fatigue fracture caused by welding or assembly gaps. Example 2

[0033] Please see the appendix Figure 3 Based on Embodiment 1, the inner wall of the support rod insertion port 9 on the vehicle body assembly 1 is provided with multiple anti-slip textures 10, which are arranged in a circumferential array.

[0034] The working principle and beneficial effects of Example 2: The end of the hood support rod is inserted into the support rod socket 9 to achieve initial positioning and fixation. The anti-slip texture 10 can increase the friction between the end of the support rod and the inner wall of the socket, preventing the support rod from rotating or axially sliding due to vibration during use, and further enhancing the fixing effect.

[0035] Example 3: Please refer to the appendix. Figure 3 Based on Embodiment 1, the open end of the pipe clamp body 3 extends outward to form an expansion guide section 11, and the angle between the expansion guide section 11 and the main body of the pipe clamp body 3 is 15°-20°.

[0036] The working principle and beneficial effects of Example 3: The rod body of the support rod is fastened from the expansion guide section 11 and inserted into the opening of the pipe clamp body 3 to complete the overall fixation. The expansion guide section 11 can provide guidance when the support rod body is inserted, making it easier to align and slide into the pipe clamp body 3. It is especially suitable for installation environments with limited space or poor visibility, and improves assembly efficiency.
