As shown in FIG1 , the embodiment of the utility model discloses a radar mounting bracket 100, comprising:

A connecting portion, wherein a connecting surface 102 is provided on the connecting portion, and the connecting portion is used to connect the radar mounting bracket to an object to be connected through the connecting surface 102. Optionally, the connecting surface 102 is provided on a side surface of the connecting portion, occupying part or all of the area of the connecting portion.

The mounting portion is provided with a mounting surface 110, and the mounting portion is used to mount the radar on the radar mounting bracket through the mounting surface 110. Optionally, the mounting surface 110 is provided on a surface of one side of the mounting portion, occupying part or all of the area of the mounting portion.

A transition portion is provided between the connecting portion and the mounting portion. The transition portion may be arc-shaped or have a preset slope.

The connection surface and the mounting surface are on different surfaces. Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1 , the connection surface 102 and the mounting surface 110 are located on different sides of the radar mounting bracket 100, or they may be located on the same side. In addition, due to the presence of the transition portion, there is a preset spacing between the connection surface 102 and the mounting surface 110, so that they are easily collapsed or deformed when impacted.

The radar mounting bracket provided in this embodiment separates the connection part and the mounting part by setting a transition part, and there is a certain distance between the connection surface and the mounting surface. It is easy to deform or collapse when impacted, thereby protecting the safety of the radar and pedestrians.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 or FIG. 2 , the radar mounting bracket 100 is provided with a weakened groove 107 , which may be a continuous groove or a discontinuous groove.

Optionally, the weakened groove 107 runs through the width direction of the radar mounting bracket and can be set in any area other than the mounting surface and the connecting surface.

In some preferred embodiments, the weakened groove 107 is a U-shaped weakened groove, and is disposed between the connecting portion and the transition portion or between the transition portion and the mounting portion.

As shown in FIG. 1 , by providing a U-shaped weakened groove 107 locally on the radar mounting bracket, especially at the corner, when the vehicle is subjected to a positive impact, the radar mounting bracket 100 is more likely to collapse or deform, thereby protecting pedestrian safety to the greatest extent.

In some embodiments, the following reinforcement structures are respectively provided on the front and back sides of the radar mounting bracket: a cross reinforcement rib 101, a round hole reinforcement rib 103, a snap reinforcement rib or a plane mounting rib.

By providing cross-cross reinforcement ribs 101 , round hole reinforcement ribs 113 or snap reinforcement ribs 103 .

It should be noted that the buckle reinforcement rib 103 includes a buckle and a slot that are arranged opposite to each other, and the strength of the radar mounting bracket is enhanced by engaging the buckle and the slot.

This embodiment increases the density of the rib structure so that the bracket body has higher rigidity and strength performance, thereby ensuring the image imaging accuracy requirement of the radar during movement.

In particular, a plane mounting rib 105 is provided in the contact area between the connection surface 102 of the radar mounting bracket and the surface of the anti-collision beam to be connected, which ensures that the bracket body and the anti-collision beam are completely fitted together when the bolts are tightened, thereby preventing the bolt torque from attenuating. Optionally, the plane mounting rib 105 is a cross convex rib.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG3 , a convex semicircular structure 111 is provided on the mounting surface 110. In some optional embodiments, a weight-reducing hole or a heat-dissipating hole is provided on the mounting surface. Of course, the weight-reducing hole can be the same hole or different holes. For example, a single weight-reducing heat-dissipating hole 112 can be provided, and the above-mentioned hole can be a blind hole or a through hole.

The above design can achieve the following effects: First, a convex semicircular structure 111 is arranged on the mounting surface 110, so that the radar body and the radar mounting bracket are in contact through point surface, so that a certain heat dissipation gap is reserved between the radar and the bracket. Second, a local hole is dug on the mounting surface 110, which not only ensures heat dissipation, but also reduces the weight of the product, greatly improving the competitiveness of the product.

In some embodiments, the edge of the mounting surface 110 is further provided with a radar limiting card and a radar fixing card.

As shown in FIG. 1 , a plurality of radar lower fixing cards 108 and radar upper limit cards 109 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower positions of the radar installation surface, thereby ensuring that the radar is accurately positioned and securely installed.

In some embodiments, in order to ensure the firmness of the bracket body installed on the object to be connected, bolt holes 104 and limit posts 106 are provided on the connection surface. The limit posts 106 are preferably three, which improves the accuracy of the limit and ensures the accurate connection positioning. Similarly, the bolt holes 104 are also three, which ensures the reliability of the connection. In some embodiments, the radar mounting bracket is an injection molded part. Through injection molding, its structure is compact, with higher precision and lighter weight, which effectively solves the technical problems of insufficient vertical and lateral stiffness and strength caused by spatial layout problems.

The object to be connected includes a bumper assembly or an anti-collision beam assembly. Optionally, the bumper assembly is a front bumper assembly.

Another aspect of the present invention provides a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a radar, and the radar is installed on the vehicle using the radar mounting bracket 100 according to any one of the above embodiments.

The utility model can obtain the following advantages:

(1) The radar mounting bracket is an integral injection molding with a compact structure, higher precision and lighter weight. The radar mounting bracket body is installed on the anti-collision beam through three bolt holes and three limit columns. The contact area between the radar mounting bracket and the anti-collision beam has a flat mounting rib. When tightening the bolts, it ensures that the radar mounting bracket body and the anti-collision beam are fully fitted to prevent the bolt torque from attenuating.

(2) The radar mounting bracket rib structure has cross reinforcement ribs and round hole reinforcement ribs, which have high rigidity and strength performance, ensuring the imaging accuracy requirements of the radar during movement and solving the ghost phenomenon caused by insufficient rigidity or strength of the radar.

(3) The radar mounting bracket is provided with a U-shaped weakened groove structure in a part of the bracket body for safety performance. When the vehicle is impacted in the normal driving direction, the radar mounting bracket collapses to protect pedestrian safety to the greatest extent.

(4) The radar mounting bracket also has a heat dissipation function. First, a convex semicircular structure is arranged on the radar mounting surface, so that the radar body and the radar mounting bracket are in contact through point-to-surface contact, leaving a certain heat dissipation gap between the radar and the radar mounting bracket. Second, local holes are dug on the radar mounting surface, which ensures heat dissipation while reducing the weight of the product.

It should be noted that although the utility model is disclosed as above in the form of a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the utility model. Any technical personnel in this field may make possible changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of the utility model shall be based on the scope defined by the claims of the utility model.
