Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of side trim technology, and in particular to side trim assemblies and window glass components. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, such as Figure 1 As shown, during the assembly process of the side trim strip, a water deflector 102 needs to be installed between the trim strip 101 and the body sheet metal to ensure the sealing performance between the trim strip 101 and the body sheet metal. Specifically, the water deflector 102 itself will be assembled and connected to the assembly structure on the trim strip 101, and adhesive will be applied in a small gap between the trim strip 101 and the water deflector 102 in the assembly structure. The adhesive application position 103 is on the side closer to the interior of the vehicle between the upper surface of the trim strip 101 and the lower surface of the water deflector 102, and the adhesive application length is a small section inward from the C-pillar end to prevent the water deflector 102 from moving in the length direction, thereby improving the assembly stability of the water deflector.

[0003] However, this installation method has the following problems in actual vehicle installation: After installation, the water deflector 102 is subjected to bidirectional compression from the trim strip 101 and the sheet metal, causing the upper end of the water deflector 102 to deform outwards. Because the adhesive at the sealant application point 103 fixes the lower end of the water deflector 102 on the side closer to the vehicle interior, the outward deformation at the sealant application point 103 is smaller than that at the unsealed area. As a result, after installation, the water deflector 102 appears noticeably concave at the sealant application point 103 and convex at the unsealed area, failing to maintain a consistent outward deformation and affecting the appearance quality of the side trim strip. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a side trim assembly and a window glass component to address the issue of how to ensure that the water deflector maintains a consistent outward deformation after installation in order to improve the appearance performance of the trim assembly.

[0009] In another aspect, the application provides a vehicle window glass assembly, comprising a glass piece and the side wall trim strip assembly in the above embodiments, and a sealing strip is further clamped below the trim strip body; the glass piece cooperates with the sealing strip.

[0010] The side wall trim strip assembly and the vehicle window glass assembly, the water baffle and the trim strip body are detachably connected and cooperated through the first fixing structure, the fixation of the trim strip body and the water baffle is realized, meanwhile, the water baffle and the trim strip body are also connected and cooperated through the second fixing structure, the second fixing structure is arranged on the first fixing structure or is arranged on the side of the trim strip body which is arranged closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixing structure, it is not necessary to glue and fix on the same side of the first fixing structure, the problem of inconsistent local deformation existing in the gluing position of the water baffle due to small section gluing and fixing is avoided, correspondingly, the water baffle can realize uniform outward deformation as a whole when it is extruded by the trim strip body and the vehicle body sheet metal, and the appearance performance is maintained.

[0011] Further, the arrangement of the first fixing structure and the second fixing structure is beneficial to improving the assembly stability between the trim strip body and the water baffle, and avoids possible component movement or abnormal sound during vehicle driving.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the present application more apparent, specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be practiced in a number of different ways beyond the specific embodiments described and it is therefore contemplated to cover all such modifications as fall within the scope of the application. It is to be understood that other embodiments can be utilized and structural or operational changes can be made without departing from the scope of the present application.

[0028] One aspect of the present application, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 provides a side trim assembly 100, comprising a trim body 110, a water barrier 120, a first fixing structure 130 and a second fixing structure 140.

[0029] The water barrier 120 is arranged to abut between the trim body 110 and the vehicle body panel 200. The first fixing structure 130 is connected between the upper end of the trim body 110 and the lower end of the water barrier 120. The second fixing structure 140 is connected between the water barrier 120 and the trim body 110 and is arranged to limit the displacement of the water barrier 120 along its length. The second fixing structure 140 is arranged on the first fixing structure 130 or on the side of the trim body 110 closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixing structure 130.

[0030] It can be understood that the water barrier 120 and the trim body 110 are detachably connected through the first fixing structure 130, achieving the fixation of the trim body 110 and the water barrier 120. At the same time, the water barrier 120 and the trim body 110 are also connected through the second fixing structure 140. The second fixing structure 140 is arranged on the first fixing structure 130 or on the side of the trim body 110 closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixing structure 130. Therefore, it is not necessary to glue and fix on the same side of the first fixing structure 130, avoiding the problem of inconsistent local deformation at the glued position of the water barrier 120 due to the small section of glue fixing. Accordingly, the water barrier 120 can uniformly deform outward as a whole when it is pressed by the trim body 110 and the vehicle body panel 200, maintaining the appearance performance.

[0031] Further, the arrangement of the first fixing structure 130 and the second fixing structure 140 is conducive to improving the assembly stability between the trim body 110 and the water barrier 120, avoiding the possible parts movement or abnormal noise during vehicle driving.

[0032] The second fixing structure 140 is arranged on the first fixing structure 130, which means that the second fixing structure 140 is arranged in connection with at least part of the first fixing structure 130. Specifically, in an example, at least part of the first fixing structure 130 can be arranged in connection with the second fixing structure 140 along the length direction of the trim strip body 110. The length dimension of the first fixing structure 130 can be smaller than the length dimension of the second fixing structure 140, or the length dimension of the second fixing structure 140 can be smaller than the length dimension of the first fixing structure 130. Through the different length dimensions, complete connection or partial connection can be achieved.

[0033] Of course, the second fixing structure 140 arranged in connection with at least part of the first fixing structure 130 can also be partial connection or complete connection in other directions, which is not limited here.

[0034] In addition, the first fixing structure 130 can be a clamping structure, so that the water baffle 120 and the trim strip body 110 are clamped and matched through the first fixing structure 130. Of course, the first fixing structure 130 can also be a screwing structure and the like. The second fixing structure 140 can be a clamping structure, a screwing structure and the like, which can be disassembled. At the same time, the second fixing structure 140 can also be an adhesive structure and the like, which cannot be disassembled.

[0035] It can be understood that the side of the trim strip body 110 closer to the outside of the vehicle is arranged than the first fixing structure 130, which means that the trim strip body 110 has two sides arranged relatively along the width direction or the thickness direction and the like. One side is arranged close to the outside of the vehicle as part of the appearance. The other side is arranged close to the inside of the vehicle and is in abutting cooperation with the vehicle body panel.

[0036] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The outer surface of the trim strip body 110 is provided with a mounting surface 111 and an abutting surface 112. The abutting surface 112 is connected at an angle with the mounting surface 111. The water baffle 120 is provided with a first region 1202a and a second region 1202b connected with each other. At least part of the first region 1202a is in abutting cooperation with the abutting surface 112. The second region 1202b is used for abutting cooperation with the vehicle body panel 200.

[0037] When the second region 1202b is in abutting cooperation with the vehicle body panel 200, at least part of the first region 1202a is in abutting cooperation with the abutting surface 112. The first fixing structure 130 is arranged between the first region 1202a and the mounting surface 111, and the second fixing structure 140 is arranged between the first region 1202a and the abutting surface 112.

[0038] In an example, the first area 1202a is an appearance area, i.e., a side of the trim body 110 disposed closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixed structure 130. The second area 1202b is a non-appearance area.

[0039] Specifically, the first area 1202a and the second area 1202b of the second sealing portion 1202 are defined based on whether the outer surface of the vehicle can be observed, where the area of the water deflector 120 in which the outer surface of the vehicle can be observed is the first area 1202a (appearance area), and the area of the water deflector 120 in which the outer surface of the vehicle cannot be observed (i.e., the area blocked by the trim body 110 or the vehicle body panel 200) is the second area 1202b (non-appearance area).

[0040] For ease of understanding, the following describes some implementation scenarios, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 It is shown that the water deflector 120 is only connected to the trim body 110 through the first fixed structure 130.

[0041] When the water deflector 120 is only connected to the trim body 110 through the first fixed structure 130, if the vehicle body panel 200 does not press against the water deflector 120, the water deflector 120 does not uniformly overflow outward at this time, and since the first fixed structure 130 is located on the same side, the installation surface 111 and the water deflector 120 are not glued between them, so that the area between the installation surface 111 and the water deflector 120 and the first fixed structure 130 is in a free connection state.

[0042] When the vehicle body panel 200 presses against the water deflector 120, the area between the installation surface 111 and the water deflector 120 and the first fixed structure 130 is in a free connection state, so that the water deflector 120 is uniformly extruded outward, and uniform deformation can occur in the first area 1202a and the second area 1202b, and the second area 1202b does not appear in a state of depression.

[0043] That is, when the vehicle body panel 200 presses against the second area 1202b, since the water deflector 120 is uniformly extruded outward, at least part of the first area 1202a will be extruded and deformed outward at this time, and the water deflector 120 will be pressed and deformed towards the installation surface 111.

[0044] Unlike the related art, if the installation surface 111 is glued to connect the water deflector 120 and the installation surface 111 on the basis of only the first fixed structure 130, the position of the glue is difficult to deform and extrude outward at this time, and the water deflector 120 cannot extrude outward in the second area 1202b, which is relatively depressed.

[0045] Therefore, the second fixing structure 140 is arranged between the first area 1202a and the pressing surface 112. Since the first area 1202a of the second connecting part 1451b originally presses in the direction of the pressing surface 112, and the connecting stress direction of the second fixing structure 140 to the water barrier 120 is also arranged towards the pressing surface 112, the water barrier 120 can be uniformly extruded out along the original stress path, and will not be affected by forces from other directions to block the extrusion out, so as to ensure that the water barrier 120 will not appear uneven extrusion out caused by the concave, thereby ensuring the appearance performance of the water barrier 120.

[0046] At the same time, it can be known from the above analysis that as long as the second fixing structure 140 does not block the movable connection between the mounting surface 111 and the water barrier 120 except the area where the first fixing structure 130 is arranged, the concave deformation of the second area 1202b will not be caused. Based on this, the arrangement position of the second fixing structure 140 can also be referred to the position of the first fixing structure 130 and the like.

[0047] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the second fixing structure 140 is arranged on the side of the trim body 110 closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixing structure 130 (for example, the pressing surface 112 in the above embodiment). Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the second fixing structure 140 includes a second clamping groove 141 and a second mounting part 142. The second clamping groove 141 is arranged on the side of the trim body 110 closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixing structure 130 (for example, the pressing surface 112 in the above embodiment). One end of the second mounting part 142 is connected to the water barrier 120, and the other end of the second mounting part 142 extends into the second clamping groove 141. The side wall trim assembly 100 further includes an adhesive 150. The adhesive 150 is arranged between the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141 and the second mounting part 142.

[0048] In this way, when the vehicle body panel 200 presses the water barrier 120, the deformation of the water barrier 120 will cause the second mounting part 142 to continue to be limited in the second clamping groove 141, so that when the water barrier 120 is extruded and deformed, the extruded part of the water barrier 120 can be arranged to extrude the second clamping groove 141, and the uniform extrusion deformation of the water barrier 120 can be ensured, thereby not affecting the appearance of the vehicle. Further, the arrangement of the adhesive 150 is beneficial to improve the mounting stability of the second mounting part 142 and the second clamping groove 141, and improve the limiting effect of the water barrier 120 in the length direction X.

[0049] In addition, a fitting gap needs to be reserved between the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141 and the second mounting part 142 to install the adhesive 150. The existence of the fitting gap provides a certain fault tolerance space for the second mounting part 142 to be clamped into the second clamping groove 141, so that the installation process is smoother, and the problem of installation difficulty caused by slight size deviation is reduced. On the other hand, the adhesive 150 is arranged in the fitting gap, which reduces the risk of affecting the overall appearance of the vehicle from the appearance.

[0050] In addition, the adhesive 150 is connected between the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141 and the second mounting portion 142, so that part of the adhesive 150 can be arranged without overflowing the pressing surface, and when the vehicle appearance is observed from a certain angle of view, the surface of the weather strip 120 will not be observed to have the adhesive 150, thereby ensuring that the adhesive 150 will not affect the appearance of the vehicle.

[0051] In an example, the length direction X of the second clamping groove 141 is arranged in the same direction as the length direction of the trim body 110. In this way, the position of the weather strip 120 relative to the trim body 110 in the length direction X can be adjusted by sliding the second mounting portion 142 in the second clamping groove 141, thereby improving the installation accuracy.

[0052] In an example installation scenario, when the second mounting portion 142 is clamped to the second clamping groove 141, the adhesive can be injected into the installation position by gluing or the like, and the adhesive 150 is formed after cooling. In this way, the adhesive can flow so as to be filled between the weather strip 120 and the trim body 110 according to the actual installation position, thereby improving the installation accuracy.

[0053] Optionally, in an example installation scenario, Figure 3 The adhesive 150 is recessed or flush relative to the opening side edge of the second clamping groove 141. Specifically, in an example, the adhesive 150 is recessed or flush relative to the pressing surface 112.

[0054] In this way, since the adhesive 150 does not exceed the plane where the opening side edge of the second clamping groove 141 is located, it is also not easy to be damaged by external factors during the daily use and maintenance of the vehicle. For example, during the operation of washing the vehicle and wiping the vehicle appearance, the adhesive 150 will not be detached or damaged due to contact with the adhesive 150, thereby prolonging the service life of the adhesive 150, and further improving the overall service life of the side trim assembly 100.

[0055] Further, the adhesive 150 will not affect the appearance of the vehicle.

[0056] In order to improve the installation stability of the second fixing structure 140 between the weather strip 120 and the trim body 110, in an embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 6 The second fixing structure 140 further includes a first abutting protrusion 143, which is protrudingly arranged at the opening edge of the second clamping groove 141. The first abutting protrusion 143 is in abutting cooperation with the second mounting portion 142.

[0057] It can be understood that when the second mounting portion 142 is clamped to the second clamping groove 141, the first abutting protrusion 143 can abut with the second mounting portion 142 to increase the friction resistance of the second mounting portion 142 from the second clamping groove 141, thereby improving the installation stability of the second mounting portion 142 in the second clamping groove 141.

[0058] Further, optionally, in an embodiment, the second fixing structure 140 further comprises a second abutting protrusion 144 protruding from the surface of the second mounting portion 142. When the second mounting portion 142 is clamped in the second clamping groove 141, the second abutting protrusion 144 abuts with the first abutting protrusion 143 along the depth direction of the second clamping groove 141. Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the second fixing structure 140 further comprises a second abutting protrusion 144 protruding from the surface of the second mounting portion 142. When the second mounting portion 142 is clamped in the second clamping groove 141, the second abutting protrusion 144 abuts with the first abutting protrusion 143 along the depth direction of the second clamping groove 141.

[0059] In this way, when the second mounting portion 142 is clamped to the second clamping groove 141, the abutting of the second abutting protrusion 144 and the first abutting protrusion 143 further increases the difficulty of the second mounting portion 142 from the second clamping groove 141, thereby enhancing the stability of the second mounting portion 142 in the second clamping groove 141.

[0060] Further, during the driving of the vehicle, various complex road conditions and external environment may be encountered, such as vibration, bumping, etc. When encountering vibration, the close abutment of the second abutting protrusion 144 and the first abutting protrusion 143 can effectively buffer the impact of vibration on the connection between the second mounting portion 142 and the second clamping groove 141, so that the stress between the second mounting portion 142 and the second clamping groove 141 is more uniform, reducing the risk of component damage caused by excessive stress concentration, thereby prolonging the service life of the second fixing structure 140 and the entire side trim assembly 100.

[0061] At the same time, the abutting of the second abutting protrusion 144 along the depth direction of the second clamping groove 141 makes the positioning of the second mounting portion 142 in the second clamping groove 141 more accurate. During installation, this type of cooperation can guide the second mounting portion 142 to be accurately clamped into the appropriate position of the second clamping groove 141, avoiding installation deviation. Moreover, even if the water deflector 120 and the trim body 110 are worn to some extent during long-term use, the abutting relationship between the second abutting protrusion 144 and the first abutting protrusion 143 can still ensure the stable connection of the second mounting portion 142 in the second clamping groove 141, maintaining the overall performance of the side trim assembly 100.

[0062] The number of first abutting protrusions 143 and second abutting protrusions 144 can be one or more, which is not limited here.

[0063] In addition, in yet another embodiment, the second fixing structure 140 is provided with a second clamping groove 141 and a second mounting part 145. Figure 3 In addition, in yet another embodiment, the second fixing structure 140 is provided with a second clamping groove 141 and a second mounting part 145. Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 6, the second fixing structure 140 includes two first abutting protrusions 143 and two second abutting protrusions 144. The two first abutting protrusions 143 are oppositely arranged along the width direction Y2 of the second clamping groove 141, and each first abutting protrusion 143 is in abutting contact with each second abutting protrusion 144 along the depth direction.

[0064] It can be understood that, when subjected to external force, the two opposite first abutting protrusions 143 and second abutting protrusions 144 can simultaneously provide mutual balanced buffering and support from both sides, effectively dispersing the external force, preventing the second mounting part 142 from shaking or shifting within the second clamping groove 141, and improving the mounting stability of the second mounting part 142 and the second clamping groove 141.

[0065] In some embodiments, the second mounting part 142 and the water barrier 120 are connected in a non-detachable connection manner.

[0066] Alternatively, the second mounting part 142 and the water barrier 120 are integrally formed. In this way, the integrally formed arrangement facilitates improving the connection stability between the second mounting part 142 and the water barrier 120, and avoids separation of the water barrier 120 and the trim body 110.

[0067] In yet another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 7 Figure 8 As shown in FIG. 6, the second fixing structure 140 further includes a second clamping groove 141 and a second mounting part 145. The second clamping groove 141 is arranged on the side of the trim body 110 closer to the outside of the vehicle than the first fixing structure 130. The water barrier 120 is provided with a first mounting hole 121. The second mounting part 145 is inserted between the second clamping groove 141 and the first mounting hole 121.

[0068] In this way, by inserting the second mounting part 145 between the second clamping groove 141 and the first mounting hole 121, when the water barrier 120 is subjected to extrusion deformation, the extruded part of the water barrier 120 can extrude the second clamping groove 141, and the water barrier 120 can also be uniformly extruded between the lower end of the water barrier 120 and the upper end of the trim body 110.

[0069] ​​​In an embodiment, the mounting member 145 has a first end 1451 and a second end 1452 at two ends thereof. In the radial direction of the first mounting hole 121, the cross-sectional area of the first end 1451 and the second end 1452 is greater than that of the middle part of the mounting member 145. The opening edge of the second clamping groove 141 is provided with a third abutting protrusion 1411, and the first end 1451 is in abutting cooperation with the third abutting protrusion 1411, and the second end 1452 is in abutting cooperation with the opening edge on the side of the first mounting hole 121 away from the second clamping groove 141.

[0070] In this way, when the mounting member 145 is clamped into the second clamping groove 141, the third abutting protrusion 1411 is in abutting cooperation with the first end 1451, and the second end 1452 is in abutting cooperation with the first mounting hole 121, which further increases the difficulty of the mounting member 145 being separated from the second clamping groove 141, and can realize complete limiting of the mounting member 145 in the depth direction, thereby ensuring the clamping stability when the mounting member 145 is clamped into the second clamping groove 141.

[0071] Further, during the driving of the vehicle, various complex road conditions and external environmental influences may be encountered, such as vibration, bumping, etc. When encountering vibration, the close abutting of the third abutting protrusion 1411 and the first end 1451 can effectively buffer the impact of vibration on the connection between the mounting member 145 and the second clamping groove 141, so that the stress between the mounting member 145 and the second clamping groove 141 is more uniform, reducing the risk of component damage due to excessive stress concentration, and prolonging the service life of the second fixing structure 140 and the entire side trim assembly 100.

[0072] At the same time, the abutting cooperation of the third abutting protrusion 1411 and the first end 1451, and the second end 1452 and the first mounting hole 121 in the depth direction of the second clamping groove 141 makes the positioning of the mounting member 145 in the second clamping groove 141 more accurate. During installation, this cooperation can guide the mounting member 145 to be accurately clamped into the appropriate position of the second clamping groove 141, avoiding installation deviation. Moreover, even if the water baffle 120 and the trim body 110 are worn to some extent during long-term use, the abutting relationship between the third abutting protrusion 1411 and the first end 1451 can still ensure the stable connection of the mounting member 145 in the second clamping groove 141, maintaining the overall performance of the side trim assembly 100.

[0073] In an example, the second end 1452 can be provided with the same structure as the first end 1451 in the above embodiments. In this way, the difficulty of differential processing can be reduced, which is conducive to improving the processing efficiency.

[0074] Further, in an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the first mounting hole 121 is provided with a first clamping groove 131, and the second mounting hole 122 is provided with a second clamping groove 141. Figure 5As shown, the following is satisfied among the mounting piece 145, the third abutting protrusion 1411 and the water baffle 120: L1 < L2 + L3. L1 is the length of the middle part of the mounting piece 145, L2 is the thickness of the third abutting protrusion 1411, and L3 is the thickness of the water baffle 120 in the axial direction of the first mounting hole 121 when the water baffle 120 is not pressed by the mounting piece 145.

[0075] Therefore, in this size range, the abutting effect between the mounting piece 145 and the water baffle 120 and the decorative strip body 110 is ensured, the water baffle 120 and the decorative strip body 110 can be in close contact through the second fixing structure 140, and the limiting stability of the water baffle 120 and the decorative strip body 110 in the length direction X is improved.

[0076] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first end 1451 includes a first connecting part 1451a and a second connecting part 1451b. The first connecting part 1451a and the second connecting part 1451b are arranged at an angle apart from each other.

[0077] The protruding thickness of the first connecting part 1451a relative to the middle part of the mounting piece 145 is greater than the protruding thickness of the second connecting part 1451b relative to the middle part of the mounting piece 145. The mounting piece 145 is rotatably arranged in the second clamping groove 141 and the first mounting hole 121, so that the first connecting part 1451a is switched between abutting cooperation with the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141 and being arranged apart from the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141.

[0078] It can be understood that when the mounting piece 145 rotates relative to the first mounting hole 121 and the second clamping groove 141, the mounting piece 145 is switched at least between a first angle and a second angle relative to the first mounting hole 121 and the second clamping groove 141; wherein the difference between the first angle and the second angle is related to the angle between the first connecting part 1451a and the second connecting part 1451b.

[0079] Specifically, when the mounting piece 145 is rotated to the first angle, the first connecting part 1451a is in abutting cooperation with the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141, and the second connecting part 1451b is arranged apart from the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141. Since the thickness of the surface of the first connecting part 1451a and the surface of the mounting piece 145 is large, the first connecting part 1451a can form close abutment with the inner wall of the second clamping groove 141 during rotation, increasing the friction between the mounting piece 145 and the two, effectively preventing the mounting piece 145 from loosening or shifting during use, thereby improving the stability of the mounting.

[0080] When the mounting piece 145 is rotated to the second angle, the first connecting portion 1451a is spaced from the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141, and the second connecting portion 1451b is oriented towards the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141. At this time, the second connecting portion 1451b can be arranged to be spaced from the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141. At this time, in the rotation process, the friction between the second connecting portion 1451b and the inner wall of the second clamping groove 141 is reduced, which reduces the difficulty of rotating the mounting piece 145 between the first angle and the second angle, and is beneficial to improve the installation efficiency of the mounting piece 145.

[0081] That is, during installation, the operator can adjust the position of the mounting piece 145 in the first mounting hole 121 and the second clamping groove 141 by rotating the mounting piece 145 to achieve the best installation effect. Specifically, when the mounting piece 145 needs to be installed, the mounting piece 145 can be rotated to the second angle and inserted into the second clamping groove 141, and then rotated from the second angle to the first angle so that the first connecting portion 1451a abuts against the inner side wall of the second clamping groove 141, and then the mounting piece 145 is stably installed in the second clamping groove 141.

[0082] When the mounting piece 145 needs to be disassembled, the mounting piece 145 can be rotated from the first angle to the second angle, so that the mounting piece 145 is removed from the first mounting hole 121 and the second clamping groove 141, and the disassembly operation is completed, which is beneficial to improve the disassembly efficiency.

[0083] Optionally, in one of the embodiments, the first mounting hole 121 is a circular hole, the size of the circular hole matches the size of the middle part of the mounting piece 145, and the first end 1451 is connected with the second clamping groove 141 after passing through the first mounting hole 121. In one installation scenario, the water baffle 120 has a certain elasticity. When the first end 1451 is inserted into the first mounting hole 121, the first end 1451 is in abutting fit with the inner side wall of the first mounting hole 121, so that the inner side wall of the first mounting hole 121 can be elastically deformed in the radial direction to provide a corresponding installation space and improve the convenience of installation.

[0084] In yet another embodiment, as shown in Figure 7 the first mounting hole 121 is a waist-shaped hole, the long side of the waist-shaped hole matches the size of the first connecting portion 1451a, and the short side of the waist-shaped hole matches the size of the second connecting portion 1451b.

[0085] In this way, by arranging the first mounting hole 121 as a waist-shaped hole, the structure of the first end 1451 in the above-mentioned embodiments is adapted, the difficulty of inserting the first end 1451 into the first mounting hole 121 is reduced, and the abutting of the first end 1451 of the mounting piece 145 and the second clamping groove 141 is realized by rotation, which ensures the stability of installation.

[0086] In other embodiments, the second fixing structure 140 is arranged on the water baffle 120. Figure 6 In other embodiments, the second fixing structure 140 is arranged on the water baffle 120. Figure 7 The water baffle 120 is further provided with a second mounting hole 122. The first mounting hole 121 and the second mounting hole 122 are arranged in communication. The mounting member 145 is inserted through the second mounting hole 122 and is inserted into the first mounting hole 121.

[0087] In this way, the second mounting hole 122 is arranged to facilitate the insertion of the mounting member 145 from a side different from the first mounting hole 121, thereby avoiding the obstruction of the trim body 110 or other parts, and improving the installation efficiency.

[0088] In an example, the first mounting hole 121 is arranged on a side close to the second clamping groove 141, and the second mounting hole 122 is arranged on a side away from the second clamping groove 141. In this way, the mounting member 145 can be inserted from the second mounting hole 122 to the first mounting hole 121 along the same installation straight line as much as possible, reducing the alignment accuracy between the mounting member 145 and the first mounting hole 121, and facilitating the improvement of the installation efficiency.

[0089] In combination with any of the above embodiments of the second fixing structure 140, as shown in Figure 9 The second fixing structure 140 further comprises a connecting member 146. One end of the connecting member 146 is connected to the water baffle 120 through the first fixing structure 130, and the other end of the connecting member 146 is connected to the trim body 110 to limit the displacement of the water baffle 120 along the length direction X.

[0090] In this way, in combination with the mounting surface 111 in the above embodiments, the connecting member 146 is arranged on the first fixing structure 130, so that the connecting member 146 is arranged on the trim body 110, i.e. the connecting member 146 is connected to the side of the mounting surface 111, and the second fixing structure 140 is connected to the water baffle 120 through the first fixing structure 130. That is, the first fixing structure 130 and the second fixing structure 140 are arranged at the same position of the trim body 110 and the water baffle 120, so that single-point gluing is not required, avoiding uneven deformation of the water baffle 120 and ensuring the appearance performance of the side trim assembly 100.

[0091] The connecting member 146 can also provide a mounting position for other trims on the vehicle, such as an angle window trim or a water-cut trim, i.e. the other trims on the vehicle are mounted on the side trim assembly 100 through the connecting member 146.

[0092] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 10As shown, the connecting piece 146 comprises a plug-in body 1461 and a limiting protrusion 1462 arranged on the plug-in body 1461, the plug-in body 1461 is connected with the water baffle 120 through the first fixing structure 130, and the limiting protrusion 1462 is abuttingly matched with the end surface of the trim strip body 110, and the end surface is the butt joint end 113 of the trim strip body 110.

[0093] It can be understood that the limiting protrusion 1462 is used for abuttingly matching with the butt joint end 113 to limit the installation distance of the plug-in body 1461 relative to the trim strip body 110. In this way, the installation accuracy in the length direction X of the connecting piece 146 can be improved, which is beneficial to ensuring the connection stability of the water baffle 120 and the trim strip body 110.

[0094] In an embodiment, it is found that Figure 7 the first fixing structure 130 comprises a first clamping groove 131 and a first installation portion 132. The first clamping groove 131 is arranged on the trim strip body 110. The first installation portion 132 is arranged on the water baffle 120, and at least part of the sealing portion is clamped in the first clamping groove 131. The plug-in body 1461 is plug-in matched in the first clamping groove 131.

[0095] It can be understood that the connecting piece 146 can be used for connecting the trim strip body 110 and other trims such as corner window trims in the side wall trim assembly. By inserting the connecting piece 146 from the butt joint end 113 into the first clamping groove 131, and the first installation portion 132 and the inner side wall of the first clamping groove 131 are abuttingly matched with the connecting piece 146, the setting of the connecting piece 146 can make the first installation portion 132 and the first clamping groove 131 have an interference fit, thereby improving the connection stability of the first installation portion 132 and the first clamping groove 131.

[0096] Further, in an installation scene, the outer surface of the trim strip body 110 is provided with an installation surface 111, the opening of the first clamping groove 131 is arranged on the installation surface 111, and at least part of the first installation portion 132 is clamped in the first clamping groove 131 through the opening. That is, at least part of the first installation portion 132 can be clamped from the opening on the installation surface 111 to the first clamping groove 131, and at least part of the first installation portion 132 is aligned with the opening of the first clamping groove 131 on the installation surface 111, which is beneficial to improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0097] In one of the embodiments, as Figure 9 to Figure 12As shown, the insertion body 1461 is provided with an insertion part 1321 on any one of the first mounting parts 132, and is provided with an insertion matching part 1461a on the other one, and the insertion part 1321 and the insertion matching part 1461a are matched in the direction perpendicular to the length direction X of the weather strip 120. In this way, the matching of the insertion part 1321 and the insertion matching part 1461a can improve the positioning accuracy of the first mounting part 132 and the insertion body 1461, and the installation stability of each other.

[0098] In an example scenario, the first mounting part 132 is connected with the insertion part 1321. The connection mode of the weather strip 120 and the insertion part 1321 can be, but is not limited to, clamping, bonding, screwing, etc. Further, it is exemplarily illustrated that the insertion part 1321 can be formed by processing the first mounting part 132.

[0099] In combination with any one of the above embodiments of the weather strip 120, in combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the weather strip 120 includes a first sealing part 1201 and a second sealing part 1202. The second sealing part 1202 is connected with the first sealing part 1201. The first sealing part 1201 is used to be connected with the first fixed structure 130. The second sealing part 1202 is used to be abutted and matched with the vehicle body panel 200. The second fixed structure 140 is arranged in at least one of the first sealing part 1201 and the second sealing part 1202.

[0100] In this way, the first sealing part 1201 and the second sealing part 1202 are respectively used to be abutted and matched with the trim strip body 110 and the vehicle body panel 200, which can avoid that when the vehicle body panel 200 is abutted and matched with the weather strip 120, the trim strip body 110 will interfere with the installation position of the vehicle body panel 200, and ensures the installation efficiency.

[0101] In some embodiments, the Shore hardness of the first sealing part 1201 is greater than the Shore hardness of the second sealing part 1202.

[0102] In this way, the higher Shore hardness of the first sealing part 1201 can ensure the stability and firmness of the connection between the first sealing part 1201 and the first fixed structure 130, prevent loosening due to vibration or other external forces during vehicle driving, and ensure that the connection between the side trim assembly 100 and the first fixed structure 130 is tight and reliable. The lower Shore hardness of the second sealing part 1202 makes the deformation degree of the second sealing part 1202 better when the second fixed structure 140 is arranged, adapts to the deformation in the clamping process, avoids the unbalanced stress when the weather strip 120 is deformed, and thus avoids the concave of the weather strip 120.

[0103] It should be noted that the connection mode of the first sealing part 1201 and the second sealing part 1202 can be bonding, clamping, etc., which is not limited herein.

[0104] In an embodiment, the first sealing portion 1201 and the second sealing portion 1202 are integrally formed.

[0105] In this way, the first sealing portion 1201 and the second sealing portion 1202 are integrally formed, which improves the connection stability of the first sealing portion 1201 and the second sealing portion 1202 and prevents the sealing performance from being reduced due to a connection gap.

[0106] In combination with any of the above embodiments of the first mounting portion 132, it is found that Figure 3 The first fixing structure 130 can further include a sixth abutting protrusion 133 and a seventh abutting protrusion 134. The seventh abutting protrusion 134 is protrudingly arranged on the outer side wall of the first mounting portion 132. The sixth abutting protrusion 133 is protrudingly arranged on the opening edge of the first clamping slot 131. When the first mounting portion 132 is clamped in the first clamping slot 131, the sixth abutting protrusion 133 is in abutting cooperation with the seventh abutting protrusion 134 along the depth direction of the first clamping slot 131. In this way, when the sixth abutting protrusion 133 is in abutting cooperation with the seventh abutting protrusion 134, the first mounting portion 132 is limited in the first clamping slot 131, which avoids the first mounting portion 132 from being separated from the first clamping slot 131, and improves the connection stability between the sealing body and the trim body 110.

[0107] Further, the two sixth abutting protrusions 133 are oppositely arranged along the width direction Y1 of the first clamping slot. The two seventh abutting protrusions 134 are oppositely arranged along the width direction Y1 of the first clamping slot. In this way, when the first mounting portion 132 is clamped in the first clamping slot 131, the two sixth abutting protrusions 133 and the two seventh abutting protrusions 134 are in one-to-one abutting cooperation, which provides balanced abutting effect and improves the mounting stability of the first mounting portion 132 and the first clamping slot 131.

[0108] In another aspect of the present application, a vehicle window glass assembly is provided, which includes a glass piece and the side trim assembly 100 in the above embodiments, and the trim body 110 is further provided with a sealing strip 300. The glass piece is installed in the sealing strip 300. In this way, through the arrangement of the side trim assembly 100 in the above embodiments, the problem of the water deflector 120 being concave due to uneven force is avoided, thereby avoiding the influence of the concave water deflector 120 on the appearance of the vehicle.

[0109] In other embodiments, it is found that Figure 2The toothed rack portion 114 is used to engage with a matching portion 210 of the body sheet metal. In this way, on the one hand, the engagement of the toothed rack portion 114 and the matching portion is conducive to improving the connection stability between the trim body 110 and the body sheet metal 200; on the other hand, the toothed rack portion 114 and the matching portion can be slidably engaged, so as to adjust the connection position between the trim body 110 and the body sheet metal 200.

[0110] The matching portion 210 can be a protrusion, a convex tooth, or the like, and is not limited here.

[0111] The second aspect of the present application, as shown in Figure 13 The present application provides a window glass assembly, which comprises a glass piece and the side trim assembly 100 in the above embodiments, and a sealing strip 300 is further connected below the trim body 110. The glass piece cooperates with the sealing strip 300. In this way, by arranging the side trim assembly 100 in the above embodiments, the uniform deformation performance of the water baffle 120 is improved, which in turn can improve the abutting effect of the water baffle 120 on the trim body 110, and then improve the sealing performance and the appearance performance.

[0112] The above embodiments only express several embodiments of the present application, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as a limitation on the patent application scope. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled persons in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present application should be subject to the appended claims.
