Embodiment

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4:

An automobile chassis includes a chassis main beam 1, a chassis cross beam 2 and a support cross beam 4.

A quantity of the chassis main beams 1 is two. The two chassis main beams 1 are arranged in parallel. A section shape of the chassis main beam 1 is “ [Image Omitted] ”. And openings of the two chassis main beams 1 are arranged opposite.

A quantity of the support cross beams 4 is more than one. All the support cross beams 4 are arranged between the two chassis main beams 1. A length direction of the support cross beam 4 is perpendicular to a length direction of the chassis main beam 1. The chassis cross beam 3 is arranged at an end of the chassis main beam 1. And both ends of the chassis cross beam 3 are respectively connected and fixed with the two chassis main beams 1.

The section shape of the chassis main beam 1 in the automobile chassis is a “ [Image Omitted] ” shape structure, and its bending moment is similar to that of the rectangular pipe. Moreover, the material consumption of the chassis main beam of this structure is less than that of the rectangular pipe, so that the amount of material used for making the chassis main beam 1 is reduced, thereby effectively reducing the cost of the automobile chassis.

It should be noted that the chassis main beam 1 with the above section shape of “ [Image Omitted] ” is cold-formed equilateral channel steel or inner lipped channel steel. According to the table, when the material strength of rectangular pipe is the same as that of cold-formed equilateral channel steel or inner lipped channel steel, their bending moment is similar. However, the weight of cold-formed equilateral channel steel or inner lipped channel steel is only about ⅔ of that of rectangular pipe, so using cold-formed equilateral channel steel or inner lipped channel steel to make chassis main beam 1 can effectively reduce the cost of automobile chassis.

Preferably, multiple through holes 11 are arranged on the chassis main beam 1.

The through holes 11 are arranged in the middle of the chassis main beam 1. The maximum stress of the “ [Image Omitted] ” shaped chassis main beam 1 is located at the upper and lower edges, while the middle is less affected. Setting the through holes 11 in the middle of the chassis main beams 1 has little impact on the performance of the automobile chassis, and can further reduce the weight of the automobile chassis and reduce the production cost of the automobile chassis.

Preferably, the multiple through holes 11 are arranged along the length direction of the chassis main beam 1 to reduce the influence of the through holes 11 on the performance of the chassis main beams 1 and make the structure of the automobile chassis more stable.

Optimally, the shape of the through hole 11 is oval.

It should be noted that the shape of the through hole 11 is not limited to an oval, but can also be set to a rectangular or circular shape. Among them, the rectangular through hole 11 can be set in the pure bending section of the chassis main beam 1, and the four top corners of the through hole 11 are chamfered. The circular through hole 11 can set the shear bending section of the chassis main beam 1 to reduce the influence of the through hole 11 on the performance of the chassis main beam 1, so as to make the structure of the automobile chassis more stable.

Optimally, a spacing between two adjacent through holes 11 is greater than the length of the through holes 11 to reduce the influence of through holes 11 on the structure of chassis main beam 1.

Optimally, the width of the through hole 11 is less than ½ of the height of the chassis main beam 1.

Optimally, the width of the through hole 11 is greater than ⅓ of the length of the through hole 11.

Optimally, the automobile chassis further includes a traction frame 5.

The traction frame 5 is a V-shaped structure, and two connecting ends of the traction frame 5 are respectively connected and fixed with the two chassis main beams 1, so that the connection between the traction frame 5 and the chassis main beam 1 is more stable.

A traction end of the traction frame 5 extends to a side of the chassis cross beam 3 away from the support cross beam 4, so that the traction device can be easily connected to the traction end of the traction frame 5 during the traction process, so as to make the traction of the vehicle equipped with the automobile chassis more convenient.

Preferably, the two connecting ends of the traction frame 5 are connected and fixed with the support main beam through bolts, which makes the installation and disassembly of the traction frame 5 more convenient, so as to facilitate the maintenance of the automobile chassis and the replacement of parts.

Optimally, the middle of the traction frame 5 is erected on the chassis cross beam 3 to avoid the deformation or fracture of the traction frame 5 caused by excessive force on the connecting ends of the traction frame 5, so as to make the structure of the traction frame 5 more stable.

Preferably, the middle of the traction frame 5 is connected and fixed with the chassis beam 3 through the connecting plate 51, so as to make the connection of the traction frame 5 more stable.

It should be noted that the connecting plate 51 is connected and fixed with the traction frame 5 and the chassis cross beam 3 through bolts, so as to make the disassembly and assembly of the connecting plate 51 more convenient.

Optimally, the opening of the chassis main beam 1 is provided with a stiffener 12 which can effectively improve the load-bearing capacity of the chassis main beam 1, so as to make the structure of the automobile chassis more stable.

Preferably, the stiffener 12 and the chassis main beam 1 are integrally formed members, so as to further improve the performance of the automobile chassis.

Optimally, multiple outrigger cross beams 2 are arranged on a side of the chassis main beam away from the opening. A length direction of the outrigger cross beams 2 is perpendicular to the length direction of the chassis main beam 1, and all the outrigger cross beams 2 are arranged along the length direction of the chassis main beam 1. The outrigger and frame can be erected on the chassis main beam 1 through the outrigger cross beams 2, so as to make the installation of the automobile chassis more convenient.

The above is only the specific embodiments of the disclosure, but the protection scope of the disclosure is not limited to this. Any skilled person familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical scope disclosed by the disclosure, which should be covered by the protection scope of the disclosure. Therefore, the protection scope of the disclosure shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
