Description
New energy automobile front floor beam structure and mounting method
[0001] The present disclosure claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 202410871893.0, filed on July 01, 2024, and entitled "New energy automobile front floor beam structure and mounting method", the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicles, in particular to a new energy automobile front floor beam structure and mounting method. BACKGROUND
[0003] With the rapid development of the automobile industry, the reliability, safety and comfort of the automobile are particularly important. In response to the call of national energy saving and emission reduction, plus the increasingly hot new energy market, the endurance mileage requirement of electric vehicles is getting higher and higher. On the basis of meeting various performance requirements, lightweight design is carried out to make the weight of the structure the lightest while meeting the arrangement, performance and process requirements, thereby posing higher challenges.
[0004] The automobile front floor beam belongs to part of the front floor assembly in the vehicle body framework, mainly used for supporting the front seat reinforcing structure, on which seat rails, seat skeletons, auxiliary instrument panels, electrical devices and the like are mainly installed. The beam structure directly affects the comfort of the seat, the use of instruments and electrical devices, and the beam structure design has a great influence on the safety side column impact. Therefore, it is of great significance to design a performance meeting, cost and weight balanced product.
[0005] The existing design is generally a flat floor plus three cross beam stamping parts welded, with small cover plates on both sides of the B column, or with a middle channel plus two cross beam stamping parts welded, or a structure of two longitudinal beams plus two cross beam structures to strengthen the floor structure. Because there is no exhaust system on the pure electric vehicle, there is no middle channel protruding section design on the front floor, which increases the difficulty of the middle mounting point stiffness design of the front seat located on the cross beam, and the stiffness directly affects the comfort of the driver and the front passenger. Moreover, there is not enough space to make the closed beam buckled together at the lower part of the floor for installing the battery, which also increases the difficulty of performance improvement to meet the safety side column impact requirements.

[0049] FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a front floor beam structure of a new energy vehicle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1, the front floor beam structure of the new energy vehicle includes a front cross beam 7 and a rear cross beam 3, and the front cross beam 7 and the rear cross beam 3 are connected by a plurality of longitudinal beams; the two ends of the front cross beam 7 are respectively provided with a connecting side beam 8, and a plurality of mounting reinforcing brackets 9 are arranged on the front cross beam 7, and the front cross beam 7 is connected to the rocker of the vehicle through the connecting side beam 8; the two ends of the rear cross beam 3 are respectively provided with a front seat rear cross beam side beam, and a front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is arranged at the middle position of the rear cross beam 3; the plurality of longitudinal beams include L-shaped connecting longitudinal beams 5 and rectangular reinforcing longitudinal beams 6, one end of the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 is arranged in overlap with the front cross beam 7, one end of the rectangular reinforcing longitudinal beam 6 is connected to the rear cross beam 3, and the other end of the rectangular reinforcing longitudinal beam 6 is connected to the front cross beam 7.
[0050] The new energy automobile front floor reinforcing beam structure provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure is characterized in that a plurality of longitudinal beams are arranged between the front cross beam 7 and the rear cross beam 3 to form a two-cross and multiple-longitudinal frame structure. The cross-longitudinal rectangular frame structure can meet the platform requirements of the vehicle, and can not only meet the requirements of NVH performance, strength fatigue, safety, arrangement, process and the like, but also can minimize the weight and reduce the number of molds, thereby better saving the cost.

[0051] FIG. 2 is a structural schematic diagram of the new energy automobile front floor reinforcing beam structure provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure mounted on the front floor of the vehicle. Optionally, as shown in FIG. 2, the number of cross beams can be 2-4, and the number of longitudinal beams can be 2-6. For example, the number of longitudinal beams in the new energy automobile front floor reinforcing beam structure provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be four, and the cross beams and the longitudinal beams after being connected form a two-cross and four-longitudinal frame structure on the front floor. The number of cross beams and longitudinal beams can be increased or decreased according to the arrangement and performance requirements, and the number of cross beams and longitudinal beams can also be three and two, or two and five.
[0052] FIG. 5 is a structural schematic diagram of the rear cross beam provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram of the front seat rear cross beam side beam provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 10, the front seat rear cross beam side beam includes a first side beam 1 and a second side beam 2 connected to each other. The first side beam 1 covers one side of the rear cross beam 3 away from the front floor of the vehicle and one side of the rear cross beam 3 away from the front cross beam 7. The second side beam 2 covers one side of the rear cross beam 3 away from the front floor of the vehicle and one side of the rear cross beam 3 close to the front cross beam 7. The first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2 are provided with a rocker beam welding edge 1-2, a floor welding edge 1-5 and a side beam connecting welding edge 1-3. The rocker beam welding edge 1-2 is provided with a feature triangular rib 1-1 at the connection position of the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2. The rocker beam welding edge 1-2 is connected to the rocker beam on the front floor by welding.
[0053] By arranging the front seat rear cross beam side beam in a split manner, the connection stiffness with the rocker can be ensured, the corner bending part does not need to be designed with a notch to meet the process, the force transmission continuity can be greatly improved, the required cross-sectional force of the safety side impact and column impact can be met, and the stiffness and strength of the seat mounting point are enhanced. The feature triangular rib 1-1 on the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2 should be as close to the upper edge of the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2 as possible, so as to increase the connection bending stiffness of the part itself.
[0054] In addition, the sill beam welding edge 1-2 is arranged to be connected with the sill beam, the floor welding edge 1-5 is arranged to be connected with the front floor, and the floor welding edge 1-5 is provided with a boss at the connection position with the front floor to better match the connection stiffness of the floor. As many connecting welding points as possible can be arranged on the sill beam welding edge 1-2 and the floor welding edge 1-5; the side beam connecting welding edge 1-3 is the welding edge of the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2, and the three-layer welding is adopted at the connection position of the side beam connecting welding edge 1-3 and the sill, so that the connection stiffness can be better increased and the connection strength can be ensured.
[0055] Fig. 7 is a partial structure schematic view of the rear cross beam provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figs. 5 and 7, the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2 are further provided with first plug welding holes 1-4. The embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit the specific number of the first plug welding holes 1-4, but the planeness design required by assembly must be met, and the number can be 4-15. For example, eleven first plug welding holes 1-4 are arranged on the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2. The first plug welding holes 1-4 are mainly used to connect the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2 with the rear cross beam 3 respectively. The second side beam 2 is provided with a butt joint hole 2-1, and the rear cross beam 3 is provided with a seat installation positioning hole 3-3. The butt joint hole 2-1 is completely coincident with the seat installation positioning hole 3-3, which is used to install the seat and avoid the influence of the position of the second side beam 2 on the installation of the seat.
[0056] In the embodiment, the rear cross beam 3 is integrally formed by rolling. Fig. 6 is a top view of the rear cross beam provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and Fig. 8 is a sectional view of the rear cross beam provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figs. 6-8, the section of the rolled piece is a mouth-shaped structure. Specifically, the section shape of the rolled piece is two or three mouth-shaped structures. In the processing process, the plate part can be first bent to form a small mouth-shaped section, the plate is welded by brazing, and then the remaining part of the plate is rolled and brazed to the small mouth-shaped vertical welding plane to form two closed cavities, which can greatly increase the vertical bending stiffness and axial stiffness and improve the axial force of the section to provide a higher strength guarantee for the safety side column collision.
[0057] Further, the rear cross beam 3 is provided with four front seat rear cross beam mounting holes 3-2, and the middle two mounting holes need to be locally reinforced because they are far away from the sill and have relatively weak stiffness. Similarly, the seat installation positioning hole 3-3 is also provided with four holes.
[0058] Figure 4 is a structural schematic diagram of the front cross beam and the longitudinal beam according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in Figures 1 and 4, the front cross beam 7 is formed by stamping. Due to the cost and arrangement space, the cross-sectional height of the front cross beam 7 is about 14 mm higher than that of the rear cross beam 3, which can better compensate for the loss of bending stiffness and axial force bearing section caused by the single cavity. The side of the front cross beam 7 away from the front floor of the vehicle is provided with a recess 7-1 for mounting the interior trim of the vehicle and increasing the local stiffness of the rear cross beam 3.
[0059] The connecting side beam 8 is different from the first side beam 1 and the second side beam 2 in that there are different size notches at the corners of the connecting side beam 8. The connecting side beam 8 is simple in structure and easy to stamp, which can meet the requirements of stiffness, strength and collision safety.
[0060] Further, the front cross beam 7 is provided with a front seat mounting hole 9-1 on each boss mounting surface of the mounting reinforcement bracket 9. The mounting reinforcement bracket 9 is connected to the upper surface and the side edge of the front cross beam by welding to form a closed beam structure, which greatly increases the local stiffness of the seat mounting point.
[0061] Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of the rear cross beam and the longitudinal beam according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of the front seat intermediate mounting bracket according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figures 3 and 9, the front seat intermediate mounting bracket 4 is a welded part. The edge of the front seat intermediate mounting bracket 4 is provided with a flange structure 4-1, which is beneficial to increase the bending and torsional stiffness of the front seat intermediate mounting bracket 4. For example, the bending height of the flange structure 4-1 in the vehicle height direction can be 4 mm-12 mm. The front seat intermediate mounting bracket 4 is connected to the rear cross beam 3 by welding through a plurality of second plug welding holes 4-3. In one embodiment of the present embodiment, the second plug welding holes 4-3 are 3-15 in number. The specific number of the second plug welding holes 4-3 is not limited, but the flatness design specified by the process should be met, and no abnormal noise should be generated at the contact surface.
[0062] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in Figures 1 and 3, the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 includes a connecting portion 5-3 and a reinforcing portion 5-4. The extending direction of the reinforcing portion 5-4 is parallel to the length direction of the front cross beam 7, and the extending direction of the connecting portion 5-3 is perpendicular to the length direction of the front cross beam 7. One end of the connecting portion 5-3 is connected to the rear cross beam 3, and the other end of the connecting portion 5-3 is connected to one end of the reinforcing portion 5-4. The reinforcing portion 5-4 is connected to the side of the front cross beam 7 close to the front floor of the vehicle. The reinforcing portion 5-4 is stacked with the front cross beam 7, thereby increasing the area of the connecting surface between the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 and the front cross beam 7 and improving the connecting strength between the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 and the front cross beam 7.
[0063] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the plurality of longitudinal beams includes two L-shaped connecting longitudinal beams 5, which are symmetrically arranged about a plane perpendicular to the length direction of the rear cross beam 3.
[0064] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 9, the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is bent towards the front floor of the vehicle near one side of the front cross beam 7, and the shape of the cross section of the cross section A-A perpendicular to the length direction of the rear cross beam 3 is Z-shaped, and at least part of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is welded to at least one of the plurality of longitudinal beams. The front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is first bent towards the front floor of the vehicle near one side of the front cross beam 7, and then bent towards the front cross beam 7, so that the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 adapts to the connection structure of the rear cross beam 3 and the plurality of longitudinal beams, increases the welding area of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 and the rear cross beam 3 and the plurality of longitudinal beams, and improves the stability of the seat mounting.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 9, the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is a U-shaped structure in the orthographic projection of the front floor of the vehicle, and the recessed part 4-6 of the U-shaped structure is located near one side of the front cross beam 7, so that the two ends of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 have Z-shaped bends, and the two ends of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 are connected to the connecting parts 5-3 of the two L-shaped connecting longitudinal beams 5, respectively.
[0066] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 9, the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is provided with a plug welding hole, and the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is welded to the connecting part 5-3 through the plug welding hole to increase the connection stiffness of the longitudinal beam. The edge of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 near the front cross beam 7 is a burn welding boundary 4-5 connected to the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5, and the length of the burn welding boundary 4-5 should be as large as possible under the premise of meeting the tool operation space to ensure the stiffness of the connection between the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 and the rear cross beam 3 and increase the transmission path. The stiffness of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4 is a key reinforcing member for increasing the stiffness of the middle seat mounting point on the roll-formed part, and the seat comfort is related to the stiffness of the body connection point and the stiffness of the seat itself. Good stiffness of the body connection point is one of the important indicators of seat comfort.
[0067] Further, the U-shaped structure on the front seat middle mounting bracket and the connection between the U-shaped structure on the front seat middle mounting bracket and other parts are provided with inclined convex ribs 4-2, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides. Two greatly increase the transition stiffness of the two planes with height difference of the front seat middle mounting bracket 4.
[0068] FIG. 11 is a structural schematic diagram of an L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIGS. 3, 4 and 11, the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 has an L-shaped cross section with a certain height in the middle, the L shape can connect the two cross beams 3 and 7 together, the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 can better enhance the bending stiffness of the rear cross beam 7 than the rectangular reinforcing longitudinal beam 6, which is helpful for the safety of side impact and column impact performance, and can meet the impact performance of the whole vehicle under different battery sizes and different weights of two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive vehicles.
[0069] Further, the connecting part 5-3 of the L-shaped connecting longitudinal beam 5 is provided with a local recessed surface, which is used to be fitted with the floor surface of the vehicle. The local recessed surface is provided with a battery mounting hole 5-1, and the connecting part 5-3 is fixedly connected with the battery through the battery mounting hole 5-1. For example, the local recessed surface is a cross-section inclined surface, which is used to cooperate with the mounting hole feature of the battery on the floor. The connecting part 5-3 can be fixedly connected with the battery through bolts. The planar feature of the local recessed surface is fitted with the surface of the floor, which greatly guarantees the stiffness of the battery connecting point, and the stiffness of the battery connecting part is relatively strong. This greatly enhances the connecting stiffness of the lower part of the floor, and the high-stiffness connecting structure is formed by the battery in the lower part of the floor and the cross beam and longitudinal beam in the upper part of the floor. The stiffness of the connecting point between the rear cross beam mounting hole 3-2 of the front seat on the rear cross beam 3 and the middle seat is effectively guaranteed.
