Detailed Description
This a tear piece for car steering column energy-absorbing protection mechanism comprises tearing a body 1, tears an L shape that body 1 formed for sheet metal (cold chain rolls mild steel board Q/BQB 403) bending type, is provided with convex hole 2 (through-hole) that the punching press formed on tearing a body 1's vertical portion, and convex hole 2 is used for when tearing a assembly, through fixing bolt and pull-out lock 9 be connected. The vertical portion end above convex hole 2 is provided with bending head 3, and bending head 3 is used for hooking pull-off lock 9 when tearing the assembly and realizes spacing between the two, and the vertical portion height of tearing a body 1 is 30-35 mm, and the length of the horizontal straight portion of tearing the body is 55-60 mm, and the width of tearing the body is 28-32 mm.
The horizontal straight part of the tearing piece body 1 is provided with a tearing piece 4 formed by punching, the length of the tearing piece 4 is 50-55 mm, and the width of the tearing piece 4 is 18-2 mm. The tearing sheet 4 is sunken on the tearing piece body 1, and the overlapping thickness between the tearing sheet 4 and the tearing piece body 1 is 0.94-1.3 mm. The end of the tearing sheet 4 is provided with a bending sheet 5 facing downwards, and the bending sheet 5 is provided with a fixing hole 6. The bending piece 5 and the fixing hole 6 are used for connecting and fixing with the mounting bracket 10.
A blanking pre-tearing line 7 formed by punching is arranged between the tearing piece 4 at the inner side of the bending piece 5 and the tearing piece body 1, and the length of the blanking pre-tearing line 7 is 3-5 mm. The purpose of punching the pre-tearing line 7 is to break a tearing point, so that after the steering column is collapsed when an automobile collides and the pull-out lock 9 is pulled out, the tearing sheet 4 starts to tear along a punching groove between the tearing sheet 4 and the tearing member body 1 by taking the punching pre-tearing line 7 as a starting point, so that the shearing stress is concentrated to eliminate a tearing peak value, thereby realizing stable energy absorption protection and meeting the integral energy absorption requirement of a steering system (see the attached figures 1-3).
Because the tearing piece body 1 is formed by bending a metal plate, and the tearing piece 4 is formed by stamping, the tearing force can be controlled by adjusting the overlapping thickness of the tearing piece body 1 and the tearing piece 4, and the peak value of the tearing force is eliminated. In order to show the effect of the overlapping thickness of the tear-off body 1 and the tear-off tab 4 on the magnitude of the tearing force, the applicant verified it by experiments and the results are shown in table 1:
table 1: influence of the overlapping thickness of the tear-off body 1 and the tear-off tab 4 on the magnitude of the tearing force
Figure 717220DEST_PATH_DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
As can be seen from table 1, as the overlapping thickness of the tearing member body 1 and the tearing sheet 4 increases, the tearing force thereof also increases.
This tear piece cooperation pull-off lock 9, installing support 10 and crossbeam connecting plate constitute car steering column energy-absorbing protection mechanism jointly, tear the piece when the assembly, at first will pull-off lock 9 through U type mouth activity card dress on the assembly recess 14 of the installing support 8 both sides of car steering column 11, pull-off lock 9 is the bent system of sheet metal, and the U type sandwich body that corresponds with the assembly recess shape, it is provided with the last assembly fixed orifices 13 and the lower assembly fixed orifices that the punching press formed to appear from top to bottom on the pull-off lock 9, it is waist type hole to go up assembly fixed orifices 12 and lower assembly fixed orifices. The rolling edges 13 formed by punching the assembly fixing holes are arranged below the upper assembly fixing holes 12 and above the lower assembly fixing holes, and the rolling edges of the upper assembly fixing holes 12 and the rolling edges of the lower assembly fixing holes are in contact connection with each other so as to increase the integral strength of the pull-off lock 9 in bending and the stability in assembly and limit the pull-off lock 9 in assembly; the end face of the bending part of the pull-off lock 9 is provided with an end face bending hole 10 (see the attached figures 4-5).
After the pull-out lock 9 is assembled, the tearing piece body 1 is placed on the pull-out lock 9, so that the vertical part of the tearing piece body 1 is attached to the pull-out lock 9, wherein the bending head 3 on the tearing piece body 1 is hooked with the end face bending hole 10 of the pull-out lock 9, and meanwhile, the tearing piece body 1 is fixedly installed on the installation support 8 through the fixing hole 6 through the fastening bolt 16 and the tearing piece fixing hole 15; the tearing piece body 1 is connected with a fixed connecting plate on an automobile beam through a fastening screw which penetrates through the convex hole 2, the upper assembling fixing hole 13 and the lower assembling fixing hole on the tearing piece body 1, so that in work, the interference collapse energy absorption mechanism and the pull-out lock pull-out energy absorption mechanism of the automobile steering column 11 are matched to realize the function of absorbing impact energy of the automobile steering column 11. That is, when the steering column collapses after the automobile collides, the two mounting points of the tear tab 4 generate displacements in two opposite directions, i.e. in the directions of E and F (as shown in fig. 8), the upper column tube drives the tear tab 4 to start to deform along the blanking groove, and as the deformation displacement gradually increases, when the deformation displacement exceeds the blanking pre-tearing line 7, the tear tab 4 starts to tear along the blanking path, and the tear tab 4 starts to tear and absorb energy. In the process of tearing and absorbing energy by the tearing sheet 4, the steering column collapse force can be kept stable without increasing the peak value of the collapse force (see the attached figures 6-11).
As shown in fig. 9, before the tearing member body 1 is not installed, the peak value of the crumpling force of the curve A, B in fig. 9 is formed by overlapping the pull-out force of the tubular column crumpling energy absorption point and the pull-out lock crumpling point; the collapse retention force is provided by the collapse energy absorption point of the pipe column (see table 2, lines 1 and 2), after the tearing part body 1 is additionally installed, the curve C in the attached figure 9 does not increase the peak value of the collapse force, only the collapse retention force is increased (see table 2, line 3), and the collapse energy absorption force distribution is specifically shown in table 2:
table 2: collapse energy absorption force distribution meter
Sequence number (xing) Collapse energy absorption point Peak collapse Collapse retention
1 Upper and lower tubular column Provide for Provide for
2 Pull-off lock Provide for
3 Tear tab Provide for
As can be seen from the attached figure 10, the tearing sheet 4 can tear the energy absorption process, so that the integral energy absorption requirement of the steering system is met. As can be seen from fig. 11, the load is much larger than that of the tearing sheet 4 shown in fig. 10, and the tearing energy absorption process of the tearing sheet 4 is directly influenced.
In order to further show the technical effects of the present invention, the applicant conducted a comparative test on the existing steering column of the automobile and the steering column of the automobile with the energy-absorbing protection mechanism, and the results are as follows (see fig. 12 and 13):
as can be seen from fig. 12, the actual crush curve collapse peak of the conventional automobile steering column can meet the requirement, and the collapse retention force is lower than the requirement.
As can be seen in FIG. 13, the crush retention is fully satisfactory with the addition of a tear. A conclusion is drawn; effectively promoted the collapse holding power of automobile steering column through installing additional and tearing the piece to make the collapse holding power remain stable, solved present because of the collapse power peak value too high lead to collapsing the holding power not enough, very easily cause the problem of secondary damage to the driver.
