具体实施方式
为使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图，对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述。显然，所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。
本申请在一实施例中提供了一种用于自动驾驶车辆车顶的安装装置，如图1所示。该安装装置包括：安装组件和多个固定支座4/5/6/7。其中，所述安装组件具有与所述自动驾驶车辆的车顶表面相匹配的弯曲形状并设置有用于安装所述辅助设备的安装位。所述多 个固定支座4/5/6/7可拆卸地附接在所述安装组件的边缘处。其中所述安装组件通过所述多个固定支座4/5/6/7可拆卸地紧固到所述自动驾驶车辆的车顶。
本实施例中，以四个固定支座为例进行说明。本申请对固定支座的个数不做限制。本实施例中，安装组件与固定支座之间可以是刚性连接，例如螺纹连接。
本实施例提供的用于自动驾驶车辆的辅助设备的车顶安装装置，可针对不同型号自动驾驶车辆的车顶外形调整所述安装组件的弯曲形状，以匹配不同型号自动驾驶车辆的车顶的外形。同时，在本实施例提供的安装装置的结构基础上排布自动驾驶车辆所需的传感器、处理器、信号交换器等硬件设备，能够充分利用有限的安装空间，并且合理避开不同硬件设备的位置，在对车顶进行安装时不会对不同的硬件设备造成任何干扰或影响。此外，本实施例提供的用于自动驾驶车辆车顶的安装装置结构简单，制造相对简便，安装集成以及维护简洁，能够实现规模化量产。相对于传统的安装装置，其高度尺寸降低约80％，同时装置的整体重量相较于传统的装置也降低了一半，其能够通过调整结构角度设计，适用于不同车辆的车顶安装。针对L4级和L5级自动驾驶车辆的具有多传感器集成模块的车顶，与现有的车顶安装装置相比，本实施例提供的安装装置具有较小的断面高度尺寸，由此降低了整个安装装置的体积。这样，不仅能够降低设计成本，同时也能够降低后续的制造、维护等其他产品生命周期的成本。
在本申请另一实施例中，如图2所示，所述安装组件进一步包括：第一安装板1和第二安装板2；所述第二安装板2可拆卸地附接到所述第一安装板1上，且与所述第一安装板呈第一角度14以与所述自动驾驶车辆车顶的表面相匹配。

本实施例中，所述连接件3可以为弧形金属板。所述弧形金属板的弧度对应于所述第 一角度，并且是根据所述自动驾驶车辆的车顶的弯曲形状预先调整和设定的。例如，通过预先定制与自动驾驶车辆的车顶的弯曲形状对应的弧形金属板，可以使得第一安装板1通过该弧形金属板与第二安装板2连接后得到的具有第一角度14的安装组件能够与该自动驾驶车辆的车顶的弯曲形状相匹配。
本申请中的连接件3还可以是具有其它形状的部件，只要能实现使得第一安装板1通过所述连接件3与所述第二安装板2连接后形成的角度能够与自动驾驶车辆的车顶的弯曲形状匹配即可。本申请对此不做限制。
本实施例提供的自动驾驶车辆的辅助设备的车顶安装装置可用于市场上主流车型的自动驾驶车辆。由于不同车型的车辆，其车顶的曲面有差异，因此就需要车顶的安装装置具有一个能够调节和补偿该差异的结构。本实施例中，第一安装板1与第二安装板2之间所呈的第一角度14可以通过预先定制具有匹配弯曲弧度的连接件3，使得第一安装板1与第二安装板之间所呈角度可以适应不同车型车辆的车顶在车辆长度方向的曲率，进而使得固定支座4/5/6/7都能够有效地与车顶接触，并同时保证第一安装板1的表面与地面保持平行。例如，由于自动驾驶车辆的车型范围有限，可仅针对几种特定车型的自动驾驶车辆的车顶在车辆长度方向上的曲率预先定制几种具有不同弯曲弧度的连接件3，在具体安装不同特定车型的自动驾驶车辆的车顶时，相应地替换匹配的连接件3即可。
在本申请另一个实施例提供的自动驾驶车辆的辅助设备的车顶安装装置中，所述安装装置具有四个固定支座，其中，两个固定支座4/7分别设置在第一安装板1的沿车身长度方向延伸的两条侧边的边缘上远离第二安装板2的端部；另外两个固定支座5/6分别设置在第二安装板2的沿车身长度方向延伸的两条侧边的边缘上远离第一安装板1的端部。所述四个固定支座具有相同的结构，下面以安装在第一安装板1上的一个固定支座为例进行说明，安装在第二安装板2上的固定支座具有相同的安装结构，不再累述。
如图4所示，固定支座可包括第一支座定位块8、第二支座定位块9、第三支座定位快10、第四支座定位快11、预紧爪12和柔性缓冲块13。其中，所述第一支座定位块8的上表面与第一安装板1刚性连接；所述第一支座定位块8的下表面与所述第二支座定位块9的一端刚性连接；所述第二支座定位块9的另一端与第三支座定位块10的一端刚性连接；所述第三支座定位块10的另一端与所述第四支座定位块11的一端刚性连接；所述第四支座定位块11的另一端与预紧爪12刚性连接；所述第二支座定位块9的所述另一端还附接所述柔性缓冲块13；所述柔性缓冲块位于所述第三支座定位块10的下方，且与所述第三支座定位块10和所述第四支座定位块11的下端部相抵靠。本实施例中的刚性连接可以为螺纹连接。
本实施例中，第二支座定位块9的主要功能是支撑作用，其通过第一支座定位块8实现与第一安装板1的连接，同时又通过柔性缓冲块13实现与自动驾驶车辆车顶的接触。预紧爪12通过第三支座定位块10和第四支座定位块11实现了与第二支座定位块9的连接。在将第四支座定位块11固定在第三支座定位块10的过程中，预紧爪12扣接车辆的立柱之间的连接框架，从而起到了对整个自动驾驶车辆的车顶进行固定的作用。在另一实施例中个，第三支座定位块10和第四支座定位块11也可以是一体成型的。
本实施例中，为了保证第一支座定位块8与第一安装板1之间的可靠连接，还可以采用多颗紧固件对第一支座定位块8与第一安装板1进行预紧。
本实施例中，第二支座定位块9在车辆宽度方向上的长度是可以根据具体车型的自动驾驶车辆的车顶尺寸可以预先调节和设定的，以适应于不同车型车辆的车顶。
本实施例中，可通过特定工艺处理方法将柔性缓冲块13永久固定在第二支座定位块9上。所述柔性缓冲块13使用的是特定柔性材料。这种特定柔性材料一方面能够补偿安装装置与车顶曲面的偏差，另一方面，具有很好的振动吸收功能，能够避免整个自动驾驶车辆车顶模块由于振动而造成的功能失效。
在本申请另一个实施例提供的自动驾驶车辆的辅助设备的车顶安装装置中，如图5所示，所述第三支座定位块10具有第一侧面15和第二侧面16，所述第一侧面15与所述第二支座定位块9邻接，所述第二侧面16与所述第四支座定位块11邻接。所述第一侧面与所述第二侧面相邻且呈第二角度。
本实施例中，所述第一侧面15与所述第二侧面16之间所呈的第二角度是根据所述自动驾驶车辆的车顶的尺寸和弯曲形状预先调整和设定的，使得针对不同车型的自动驾驶车辆，预紧爪12的长度方向与车辆立柱之间的连接框架的外表面始终保持平行，以便于预紧爪的扣接部能够有有效地与车辆立柱之间的连接框架的内边配合。
本实施例中，所述预紧爪12的扣接部朝向车辆弯曲，并与预紧爪12的长度方向呈第三角度17。所述扣接部弯曲形成的第三角度17可以根据不同车型的自动驾驶车辆预先调整和设置，使得预紧爪12的扣接部能够最大限度地与车辆立柱间的连接框架的内边接触，进而有效地实现扣接功能。
例如，由于自动驾驶车辆的车型范围有限，可仅针对几种特定车型的自动驾驶车辆的车顶的尺寸和弯曲性状，预先定制对应这几种车型车顶的若干个第三支座定位块10和预紧爪12，其中，每个第三支座定位块10的第一侧面15和第二侧面16之间呈不同的第二角度，每个预紧爪12具有不同第三角度17。在具体安装不同特定车型的自动驾驶车辆的车顶时，根据其车顶的弯曲形状和尺寸相应地替换与其匹配的第三支座定位块10和预紧 爪12即可。
本实施例提供的用于自动驾驶车辆的辅助设备的车顶安装装置结构简单，制造相对简便，安装集成以及维护简洁，能够实现规模化量产。
图6示出了将本申请提供的用于自动驾驶车辆的辅助设备的车顶安装装置的安装示意图。在本实施例中个，仍然以一个固定支座为例进行说明。针对具体车型的自动驾驶车辆的车顶20的尺寸和弯曲形状，通过预先调整和设置第一角度14、第二角度和第三角度17，选择合适的连接件3、第三支座定位块10和预紧爪12组装得到匹配该车型车辆的车顶20的安装装置。在安装车顶的过程中，预紧爪12扣接车辆立柱之间的连接框架21。
例如，以安装设备包括四个固定支座为例，设置在第二安装板1上的两个固定支座的两个预紧爪12分别扣接于车辆两侧的前柱与中柱之间的连接框架，设置在第一安装板1上的两个固定支座的两个预紧爪12分别扣接于车辆两侧的中柱与后柱之间的连接框架。柔性缓冲块13抵靠立柱之间的连接框架以及车顶曲面，如此既补偿了安装装置与车顶曲面的偏差，又很好的吸收了车顶的振动，避免整个自动驾驶车辆车顶模块的因振动造成的失效。
以上实施例的各技术特征可以进行任意的组合，为使描述简洁，未对上述实施例中的各个技术特征所有可能的组合都进行描述，然而，只要这些技术特征的组合不存在矛盾，都应当认为是本说明书记载的范围。
以上所述实施例仅表达了本申请的几种实施方式，其描述较为具体和详细，但并不能因此而理解为对发明专利范围的限制。应当指出的是，对于本领域的普通技术人员来说，在不脱离本申请构思的前提下，还可以做出若干变形和改进，这些都属于本申请的保护范围。因此，本申请专利的保护范围应以所附权利要求为准。
