Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a sealing structure between a skateboard chassis and a body of an electric vehicle, and in particular to a sealing structure of a skateboard chassis. Background Art

[0002] As environmental pollution becomes increasingly serious, fossil fuels, as non-renewable energy sources, are continuously decreasing. It has become an irreversible trend for electric vehicles with no pollution and zero emissions to replace traditional fuel vehicles. Currently, mainstream electric vehicles still adopt traditional chassis designs, resulting in increasingly obvious shortcomings such as high vehicle costs, heavy weights, low cruising ranges, low space efficiency, and long development cycles.

[0003] With the development of electric vehicles, the competition among vehicle manufacturers has become increasingly fierce. A skateboard chassis with low cost, light weight, high cruising range, high space efficiency, and short development cycle will become the trend of electric vehicle chassis development. Along with the emergence of this new type of chassis, how to achieve the sealing between the skateboard chassis and the body has become a new industry problem. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to invent a new sealing structure for a skateboard chassis for sealing between the skateboard chassis and the body. This seal has the characteristics of low cost, convenient installation, and the ability to repeatedly disassemble and assemble the skateboard chassis without losing the sealing performance.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is: A sealing structure for a body and a skateboard chassis, comprising:

[0006] A body, arranged at the upper part of the vehicle, capable of providing installation support for the interior trim and providing a accommodation space for passengers or goods;

[0007] A skateboard chassis, arranged at the lower part of the vehicle, connected to the body, and playing a load-bearing role for the body;

[0008] A skateboard chassis sealing strip, arranged on the skateboard chassis, with a sealing lip or bubble provided on the skateboard chassis sealing strip, elastically contacting the body; a protruding feature is provided on the skateboard chassis sealing strip, and a recessed feature is provided on the skateboard chassis. The skateboard chassis sealing strip is fixedly connected to the skateboard chassis by embedding the protruding feature into the groove feature of the skateboard chassis.

[0009] Further, the body has a sealing surface for providing a sealing surface for the skateboard chassis sealing strip and sealing the gap A between the body and the skateboard chassis.

[0010] Further, the body has an inclined surface that slopes downward and is connected to the matching surface of the body, playing a role in blocking water and preventing water from directly impacting the sealing surface.

[0011] Furthermore, the skateboard chassis has a mounting surface that is connected and matched with a matching surface of the vehicle body.

[0012] Furthermore, the skateboard chassis sealing strip has a first sealing lip and a second sealing lip, and the first sealing lip and the second sealing lip are elastically in contact with the sealing surface of the vehicle body respectively, so as to seal the gap A between the vehicle body and the skateboard chassis.

[0013] Furthermore, a cavity B is provided between the first sealing lip and the second sealing lip, and the cavity B can discharge water that flows over the first sealing lip.

[0014] Furthermore, two tooth-shaped features are arranged on the convex features of the skateboard chassis sealing strip, and the tooth-shaped features are connected with the concave features in the skateboard chassis by interference fit.

[0015] Furthermore, a core material is arranged inside the skateboard chassis sealing strip to prevent the skateboard chassis sealing strip from shrinking in the length direction, thereby ensuring dimensional stability.

[0016] Furthermore, the core material is metal or nylon

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] The sealing structure of the present invention adopts a skateboard chassis sealing strip to be clamped on the skateboard chassis, the skateboard chassis is connected to the vehicle body, and the first sealing lip edge and the second sealing lip edge of the skateboard chassis sealing strip are in elastic contact with the vehicle body sealing surface to play a sealing role.

[0019] The sealing structure has the characteristics of low cost, convenient installation, and can realize repeated disassembly and assembly of the skateboard chassis without losing the sealing performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
