However, because the tonnage of the light truck is small, the space and the structure of the cab are limited, and the cab of the light truck generally cannot provide sufficient protection for passengers like a heavy truck. Especially, the light truck with the weight of more than 7.5 tons has the similar performance of resisting collision to a small-tonnage truck, the loaded goods are looked at the middle-heavy trucks, and in the cab of the truck, once collision occurs, especially when the collision position occurs at the position of the A column, the cab structure is collapsed and topples over towards the rear of the truck, the space of the head, the trunk, the legs and the like of a passenger is limited, and the life safety of the passenger cannot be ensured.
In the prior art, the technical scheme for optimizing the collision performance of the light truck cab refers to the cab of a medium-heavy truck and the cab of a heavy truck, and the cab frame is enhanced. For example, a reinforcement for transmitting impact force is added to the rear wall and the floor of the cab of the truck, and deformation of the cab due to impact can be reduced by transmitting the impact force from the cab to the frame more smoothly. On the other hand, the structure of the light truck cab is simpler than that of a medium-weight truck and a heavy truck, so that the collision force is difficult to be effectively and uniformly transmitted to the frame, and the suspension system connecting the cab and the frame is easy to lose efficacy in the process of transmitting the collision force from the cab to the frame, so that greater safety risk is brought, and the mode does not fundamentally solve the potential safety hazard of collision to passengers in the light truck cab.

Compared with the scheme of transmitting the collision force during collision to the rear side of the vehicle in the prior art, the collision force is weakened through the energy-absorbing material on one hand, and the weak position is reinforced on the other hand, so that the safety performance of the cab of the vehicle is improved, the rear side of the vehicle is not threatened, and the life safety of passengers in the cab is ensured.
Fig. 1 is a block flow diagram of an optimization method for safety performance of a vehicle according to one embodiment of the present invention. In actual practice, as shown in fig. 1, the safety weak position of the cab is identified and the optimization scheme is verified by the following method:
s10: identifying safe weak positions of a cab of a vehicle according to deformation of the cab during collision;
s20: analyzing the structural defects of the cab according to the safe weak position;

s60: judging whether the strength distribution of a frame structure of a cab meets a preset requirement or not;
s70: and if the strength distribution of the frame structure of the cab cannot meet the preset requirement, reformulating an optimization scheme according to the structural defects.
It should be noted that, according to the preset requirements, the following are included: according to the safety requirements regulated by laws and regulations at home and abroad, the requirements for actually ensuring the life safety of passengers and the like.
The optimization method provided by this embodiment is to perform a collision test on the cab, where the collision test may be performed by a real vehicle or by computer simulation, the test is performed to simulate a collision position and a collision force according to an actual driving process, then a plurality of weak positions may exist in the cab are identified according to deformation caused after the test, the weak positions affecting safety of passengers in the cab can be preferably analyzed, a structural defect of the cab is found according to the weak positions, a weak point of strength distribution of the cab is found according to the structural defect, an optimization scheme of the strength distribution of the cab is formulated, then the strength distribution of the cab is adjusted according to the optimization scheme, and after the adjustment, the collision test is performed to verify the optimization scheme to determine whether the optimized cab can meet requirements for ensuring safety of the passengers, and if so, and if the optimization scheme is not met, adjusting or re-formulating the optimization scheme according to the steps until the cab can meet the requirement for ensuring the safety of the passengers. The scheme provided by the embodiment optimizes the cab, so that the life safety of passengers in the cab can be guaranteed when the vehicle collides, and the safety performance of the vehicle is improved.
Preferably, in one embodiment, the safe weak point of the cab is identified according to the deformation of the cab of the vehicle in the collision, and the collision process of the vehicle is simulated by the computer and the safe weak point is identified. Specifically, the information such as the structure, the collision force, the collision position and the like of the cab is input into the computer, and the computer is used for carrying out the simulation test, so that the cost is saved and the test difficulty is reduced compared with the mode of carrying out the simulation test by adopting a real vehicle.
Adjusting the intensity distribution of the cab according to the optimization scheme includes adjusting the intensity distribution of the frame structure of the cab according to the optimization scheme. The frame structure of the cab in the prior art can cause insufficient space of legs and abdomen of passengers after a vehicle is collided, the space of an upper body and a head is sufficient, and the life safety of the passengers after the collision is threatened by the frame structure, so that the arrangement mode of the frame structure is unreasonable. The frame structure can be optimized according to actual safety requirements through an optimization scheme so as to meet the requirements of protecting passengers, for example, in a preferred embodiment, the space of the upper body and the head can be used for replacing the space of the leg and the abdomen, and the protection of the passengers when the vehicle collides can be more reasonably and effectively ensured.
In other embodiments, the purpose of adjusting the strength distribution of the cab can be achieved by adjusting the spatial distribution of the cab, and certainly, the spatial distribution and the frame structure can be adjusted in a coordinated manner, so that the cab meets the requirements of users in various aspects, such as cost, safety, comfort, NVH, and the like.

Increasing the energy absorbing capacity of the safety weaknesses includes using energy absorbing material to form the a-pillar 131. Through the simulation test of the above embodiment, the inventors found that the joint area in the cab is weak and the safety of the occupant cannot be ensured after the collision. Therefore, in this embodiment, the characteristic that the head space of the passenger in the cab is sufficient is fully utilized, the a-pillar 131 is set as an energy absorption area, the impact force is absorbed by the deformation of the a-pillar 131 on the premise that the a-pillar 131 is not broken or the head living space of the passenger is not affected, and the side frame, the floor rear cross beam 311, the rear wall reinforcing plate 411, the floor longitudinal beam 211 and the floor reinforcing cross beam 511 are reasonably reinforced, so that the deformation of the side frame, the floor rear cross beam 311, the rear wall reinforcing plate 411, the floor longitudinal beam 211 and the floor reinforcing cross beam 511 due to the impact force is controllable, and the whole living space of the passenger after the collision is greatly increased.

Compared with the technical scheme of only limiting the cab in the prior art, the invention comprehensively considers the reaction of collision on the cab, the suspension connecting the cab and the frame and the cab under the collision, and verifies that the influence caused by the collision can be eliminated in a smaller system range through computer simulation.
Preferably, since the impact occurs in the area of the a-pillar 131, the strength of the a-pillar 131 can be gradually weakened relative to other areas during the test, and the energy absorption ratio thereof can be improved, so that the a-pillar 131 becomes a main deformation area. Specifically, the energy-absorbing material for manufacturing the a-pillar 131 may be selected from a material having lower strength but higher elongation than the non-energy-absorbing region, such as a steel material or an aluminum alloy having a relatively higher elongation.
In a preferred embodiment, the reinforcement plate provided at the joint to which the a-pillar 131 is connected is also eliminated by the above-described test.
In a further embodiment, the manner of reinforcing the side frame, the floor rear cross member 311, the rear reinforcement panel 411, the floor side member 211 and the floor reinforcement cross member 511 connected to the door of the vehicle in the frame structure includes: replacing the high-strength steel plate and/or increasing the thickness of the original steel plate and/or adding a reinforcing plate. The inventor carries out a computer simulation crash test on the scheme of the embodiment, and the test shows that after the crash, the deformation area of the cab is transferred to the A column 131 from the joint, and the A column 131 is not broken, so that the crash force is absorbed, and the living space of the passenger in the cab is obviously improved. According to the optimization scheme, the mode of transferring the collision force in the prior art is changed into the mode of absorbing the collision force, the collision risk is not transferred to other systems of the vehicle, the safety risk of the cab after collision is fundamentally solved, and the protection effect of the cab on passengers in the prior art when collision occurs can be obviously improved. After the comparison of the simulation analysis of the computer, the invention also finds that the weight of the cab is lower under the condition of passenger protection or the cab has better passenger protection effect under the same weight by the scheme of reasonably arranging the strong and weak areas of the cab again, so that the manufacturing cost of the cab can be reduced, the use cost of a user is reduced, the practicability is high, and the economic benefit potential is huge.
In one embodiment, taking an a-pillar 131 collision test of a commercial vehicle as an example, a computer simulates the collision a-pillar 131, and finds that the living space of a passenger is seriously insufficient, such as a cab roof and a front wall can collide the head of the passenger, a steering wheel can collide the abdomen of the passenger, an instrument panel can press the legs of the passenger, and each joint of the cab is subjected to plastic deformation after collision.
