Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a jack mounting bracket for storing a jack for lifting a vehicle in a vehicle.

[Conventional technology]

The locations in the vehicle for storing the jack that lifts the vehicle are (1) inside the rear floor tire house, (2) the space between the rear floor side panel and the quarter panel, and (3) the space between the roof side inner rear panel and the quarter panel. The space between the
The space between the roof side inner rear panel and the quarter panel, indicated by arrow D in the virtual circle C in the figure, can be used effectively, and when the jack is used, it can be easily taken out and stored. It is widely used for many reasons.

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 4, a jack mounting bracket 11 is housed in a space between the quarter panel 3 and the roof side inner rear panel 4, and is installed on the wheel house outer 5 with mounting bolts or the like. Jack mounting bracket 11
These include an upper flange 11a on which a clamp part of a jack (not shown) comes into contact, a bottom part 11b on which the jack is placed, and a connecting part 11c that connects the two.
It further includes a fall prevention flange 11d for preventing the jack from falling when the jack mounting bracket 11 is mounted on the wheel house outer 5 at an angle. Further, the wheel house outer 5 is connected to the wheel house inner 6. FIG. 5 shows another example of a conventional jack mounting bracket. In this case, the bottom of the jack is held between the flanges on both sides on the wheel house outer 5, and the flange 12a is attached to prevent the jack from falling. Jack mounting bracket 1 with
2 is provided. Further, in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 56-30139, a jack bracket with mounting holes is fixed to the lower edge of the opening of the rear inner panel, and the jacks are inserted into the mounting holes of the jack bracket. A vehicle jack mounting structure is disclosed.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the conventional jack mounting brackets illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5 above, the jack mounting position is often installed at an angle on the outer wheel house, so it is necessary to use both hands when storing the jack. The problem was that it was difficult to install even if you tried to install it. Furthermore, in the case of the conventional example shown in Fig. 4, even if the jacks were fully opened vertically, the jacks were not securely fixed, and there was a risk that the jacks would rotate laterally while the vehicle was running, causing abnormal noises. . Furthermore, in the structure of the vehicle jack mounting part disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 56-30139, the jack is simply inserted into the mounting hole of the jack bracket, so the fixation of the jack is uncertain. The jack often moves up and down while driving.

An object of the present invention is to provide a jack mounting bracket that allows a jack to be easily and reliably attached to the jack mounting bracket.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention supports a jack that includes both side surfaces that are parallel to each other, a base that has tapered flanges connected to both ends of the both sides, and a clamp that abuts against the lower surface of the vehicle. a jack mounting bracket, comprising: a bottom portion for attaching the jack; an upper flange provided at a position facing the bottom portion and abutting against a clamp portion of the jack that is opened and expanded; and a connecting portion connecting the bottom portion and the upper flange. In the bottom part, a bottom wall of a sub-bracket having a concave cross-section on which the base of the jack is placed is integrally provided, and the side surfaces of the sub-bracket are erected on both sides of the sub-bracket, respectively. a pair of anti-rotation flanges parallel to both side surfaces of the jack and having an inner diameter equal to the distance between the two side surfaces; and a pair of anti-rotation flanges each connected to one end of the pair of anti-rotation flanges and provided on both sides of the sub-bracket. a pair of fall prevention flanges having inner diameters equal to the tapered flanges connected to one ends of both sides of the jack, and connected to the other ends of the pair of rotation prevention flanges, respectively, and connected to the sub-bracket; and a pair of mounting position confirmation flanges having an inner width equal to the tapered flanges connected to the other ends of both sides of the jack, the pair of rotation prevention flanges, and the pair of fall prevention flanges installed on both sides of the jack. An insertion guide flange that opens outward of the sub-bracket is formed at the upper end of the prevention flange and the pair of attachment position confirmation flanges, respectively.

[Effect]

In the jack mounting bracket of the present invention constructed as described above, the jack is placed on the sub-bracket while its base is guided by the insertion guide flange. At this time, the mounting position of the jack is
Each tapered flange at the base of the jack is engaged by a pair of fall prevention flanges and a pair of mounting position confirmation flanges, so even if the jack mounting bracket is installed at an angle,
The jack is held in place without falling. Once the base of the jack is placed on the sub-bracket, the jack is expanded in place and secured to the jack mounting bracket by abutting the jack's clamp portion against the top flange. In this state, both sides of the bottom of the jack are restricted by the anti-rotation flange, which prevents the jack from rotating laterally due to vibrations while driving, and prevents the jack from making abnormal noises due to vibration. do not have.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

First, the structure of the jack fixed to the jack mounting bracket of the present invention will be explained. 6th
The figure is a perspective view of a general jack. As shown in FIG. 6, the jack 7 includes a base 7a, a clamp portion 7b for supporting the vehicle, and a jack 7.
It has a rotating part 7c for expanding and contracting. The base 7a has both side surfaces 7d that are parallel to each other,
It is comprised of tapered flanges extending in opposite directions and connected to both ends thereof, respectively.

Next, the jack mounting bracket of the present invention will be explained.

FIG. 1a is a perspective view of an embodiment of the jack mounting bracket of the present invention, and FIGS. 1b and c are perspective views of the sub-bracket shown in FIG. It is.

As shown in FIG. 1a, the jack mounting bracket 1 is housed in a space between the quarter panel 3 and the roof inner side rear panel 4, and is installed on the wheel house outer 5 with mounting bolts or the like. The jack mounting bracket 1 is
A bottom portion 1b to which a sub-bracket 2 for mounting the jack 7 shown in FIG. 6 is welded, and a bottom portion 1b.
The upper flange 1a faces the upper flange 1a and the clamp part 7b of the jack 7 comes into contact with the upper flange 1a, and the connecting part 1c connects the bottom part 1b and the upper flange 1a.

The sub-bracket 2 has a concave cross section as shown in FIGS. 1b and 1c, and its bottom wall has approximately the same shape as the base 7a of the jack 7 shown in FIG. , a pair of anti-rotation flanges 2b each parallel to both side surfaces 7d of the jack 7 and having an inner diameter equal to the distance between the two side surfaces;
connected to one end of each rotation prevention flange 2b, respectively connected to a pair of fall prevention flanges 2a having an inner diameter equal to the tapered flange on one end side of the base 7a of the jack 7, and the other end of each rotation prevention flange 2b, An attachment position confirmation flange 2c having an inner diameter equal to that of the tapered flange on the other end side of the base 7a of the jack 7 is integrally erected. These flanges 2a, 2b, 2c allow the sub-bracket 2 to
A recess 2e is formed with side walls b and 2c, and the base 7a of the jack 7 is inserted into the recess 2e and placed on the bottom surface of the recess 2e. In addition, an insertion guide flange 2d is formed at the upper end of each of the flanges 2a, 2b, 2c and opens outward from the recess 2e, in order to facilitate insertion of the base 7a of the jack 7 into the recess 2e.

Now, when the jack 7 shown in FIG. 6 is stored in the jack mounting bracket 1 installed on the wheel house outer 5 in a tilted state toward the front, the base 7a of the jack 7 in the contracted state is Using the insertion guide flange 2d as a guide, both sides 7d of the jack 7 are inserted between the anti-rotation flanges 2b so as to contact the recess 2a of the bracket 2, and the jack is temporarily placed. At this time, the tapered flange on the other end side of the base 7a of the jack 7 engages with the position confirmation flange 2c, so the jack 7 is held at a predetermined position on the sub-bracket 2. At the same time, the tapered flange at one end of the base 7a of the jack 7 engages with the fall prevention flange 2a, so the jack 7 does not fall from the sub-bracket 2. In this way, by engaging the tapered flange of the base 7a of the jack 7 with the fall prevention flange 2a and the mounting position confirmation flange 2c, the jack 7 can be easily temporarily placed with one hand.

Next, when a rotating handle (not shown) is connected to the rotating part 2c of the jack 7 and rotated, the jack 7 is expanded, and the clamp part 7b comes into contact with the upper flange 1a of the jack mounting bracket 1, so that the jack 7 is rotated. is sub-bracket 2 and upper flange 1
