It should be noted that, the height difference between the front section 26 and the rear section 28 of the longitudinal beam needs to be controlled within a certain range, if the height difference is too large, the height of the frame longitudinal beam 2 will be too large, which is not beneficial to the arrangement of the frame longitudinal beam 2 on the vehicle, and if the height difference is too small, the avoidance space of each component in the tire envelope or the power assembly transmission system will be insufficient, so that each component in the tire envelope or the power assembly transmission system will interfere with the frame longitudinal beam 2.
In some embodiments, the frame rail 2 is formed with a recessed area 29 on the outer side of the middle in the vehicle longitudinal direction and the width of the frame rail 2 in the middle in the vehicle longitudinal direction is made smaller than the width of both ends, and the frame rail 2 is adapted to collapse inward from the recessed area 29 at the time of a collision.
That is, in the event of a vehicle collision, the frame rail 2 collapses inwardly through the recessed area 29, which absorbs some of the impact energy, reducing the risk of rearward linear movement of the frame rail 2.
Specifically, the structure of the frame rail 2 in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle is a nonlinear section, the outer side of the middle part of the frame rail 2 is provided with a concave area 29, and the concave area 29 can be configured to be concave towards the inner side in the transverse direction of the vehicle, so that the width of the frame rail 2 in the concave area 29 is smaller than the width of the two longitudinal ends of the frame rail 2, and the concave area 29 with smaller width is easy to bend under stress, thereby being more beneficial to realizing the energy absorption effect during collision. The concave area 29 may be V-shaped, arc-shaped, etc., and has various setting modes, flexible selection and simple overall structure.
In some embodiments, the outer side of the recessed area 29 includes a front side 201 and a rear side 202, the front side 201 and the rear side 202 being joined in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the front side 201 being configured to extend obliquely inward from front to rear, and the rear side 202 being configured to extend obliquely inward from rear to front.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, the front side 201 is configured to extend obliquely from front to back and inwardly, so as to help improve the energy absorbing effect of the frame rail 2 in the event of a collision, especially when the frame rail 2 is collided, the collision force can be guided to be transmitted to the rear by the oblique extension of the front side 201, and gradually weakened in the process, so that the vehicle structure and the safety of passengers are protected. And the rear side 202 extends obliquely inwards from back to front and is connected with the front side 201, and the rear side 202 and the front side 201 correspond to each other to form the integral structure of the frame longitudinal beam 2, the oblique extension of the rear side 202 also helps to improve the energy absorption effect of the frame longitudinal beam 2, and the connection part of the rear side 202 and the front side forms a concave area 29 to realize bending and collapsing under stress. An excessive inclination angle may cause an unnecessary stress concentration in the frame rail 2 when loaded, while an excessively small angle may impair the energy absorbing effect.
Thus, by the above arrangement, the collision safety performance of the vehicle can be remarkably improved, and the obliquely extending structures of the front side surface 201 and the rear side surface 202 can effectively absorb and disperse the collision force, thereby reducing damage to the vehicle and the occupant. At the same time, this design may also improve the overall structural strength of the front subframe assembly 100, enhancing vehicle stability and durability.
In some embodiments, the front side 201 extends less in the vehicle longitudinal direction than the rear side 202 extends in the vehicle longitudinal direction.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1-2, the inclined extension length of the front side 201 is smaller than that of the rear side 202, the connection between the front side 201 and the rear side 202 forms a concave area 29, that is, the extension length of the part of the frame longitudinal beam 2 before the concave area 29 is smaller than that of the part of the frame longitudinal beam 2 after the concave area 29, so that the front side 201 is designed to be shorter, the shorter front side 201 can reduce the direct impact on a driver and passengers when the vehicle collides, thereby protecting the safety of personnel in the vehicle, and meanwhile, the design is convenient for optimizing the collision performance of the front structure, ensuring reasonable absorption of collision energy when the vehicle collides, reducing the damage to the body of the passengers, and enabling the frame longitudinal beam 2 to collapse in the vicinity of the front end area.
And the rear side 202 is designed to be longer so that it extends longer in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, which can provide a larger impact buffer area and reduce injuries in the cabin after a vehicle collision. In addition, such a design is advantageous for enhancing the stability of the vehicle body.
And/or the front side 201 is inclined inwardly at a greater angle than the rear side 202.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the concave area 29 is disposed near the front end of the frame rail 2, so that the front side 201 has a smaller inclined extension length, the rear side 202 has a larger inclined extension length, so that the front side 201 forms a larger inclined angle, and the rear side 202 forms a smaller inclined angle, so that after the vehicle is impacted, a force is transmitted along the inclined front side 201, and the concave area 29 is folded inwards to collapse a certain external force, and a small amount of force is transmitted from the inclined rear side 202, so that less force is transmitted backwards, therefore, the inclined angle of the front side 201 is set larger, which is beneficial to bending collapse at the joint of the front side 201 and the rear side 202, thereby preventing the frame rail 2 from invading the cab and improving the safety performance of the vehicle.
In some embodiments, frame rail 2 includes a first plate 203 and a second plate 204, where first plate 203 and second plate 204 are joined together in an up-down direction to define a rail cavity 205.

In practical design, the first plate 203 and the second plate 204 may be configured as U-shaped plates, and the open sides of the first plate 203 and the second plate 204 are opposite, and are fastened and connected along the up-down direction, and then are connected in a welding manner, so that the first plate 203 and the second plate 204 are of a closed structure, and the structural strength of the frame rail 2 may be improved to resist the impact of external force.
And the outer side surfaces of the first plate 203 and the second plate 204 form concave areas 29, and the two concave areas 29 are connected together in the up-down direction to form the concave area 29 which is curved inwards.
Or, the frame rail 2 is integrally formed.
That is, the integral structure of the frame rail 2 can be formed and processed once, so that the frame rail 2 has higher structural strength, which is conducive to improving the operability and stability of the vehicle, and can reduce more connecting steps such as splicing and welding of a plurality of structural members of the frame rail 2, and the frame rail 2 can disperse and absorb energy more uniformly during collision, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle.
