Soft-top models are one of them. The soft top settings of the models include fixed soft tops, manual folding soft tops and electric folding soft tops. The soft tops in current technology mostly use textile fabrics as shielding materials, and most of them are opaque materials composed of multiple layers of materials. In order to comply with relevant laws and regulations and driving safety, car companies will stick a piece of light-transmitting glass on the rear windshield of the soft top when designing the soft top.

[0003] This has led to a more serious problem in the production of soft tops: the textile fabric is not easy to bond with the glass, which means that after soft top models are put on the market, consumers are prone to problems such as water leakage and falling off of the soft top rear bumper after driving the soft top models for a period of time.

[0004] Therefore, a low-cost and reliable soft top rear windshield bonding structure is in urgent need of research. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, a plurality of diversion holes corresponding to the connection gap between the tempered glass and the soft top tarpaulin are evenly opened on the outer surface of the cover frame.

[0015] Optionally, a method for bonding the soft top tarpaulin to the glass may include the following steps:

[0016] Pre-fabrication of soft top tarpaulin: S1. According to the outer dimensions of the tempered glass, holes are opened inside the soft top tarpaulin to match the dimensions. The edges of the holes are folded over to form an overlapping double-layer structure. During the flanging process, glue is applied to the folded areas to secure the double-layer structure.

[0017] S2. Holes are opened in the double-layer structure, and the lower pressing strip is attached to the lower side of the double-layer structure at the edge of the through-hole on the soft top tarpaulin. The upper pressing strip is attached to the upper side of the double-layer structure at the edge of the through-hole on the soft top tarpaulin. The rivets are passed through the corresponding holes and mounting holes. The ends of the rivets exposed from the lower pressing strip are deformed by pressing to form a locking structure, thereby completing the installation of the clamping frame.

[0018] Bonding the soft top tarpaulin: S3. Fill the adhesive groove a with adhesive. After the clamping frame and the soft top tarpaulin are connected, insert the clamping frame into the adhesive groove a and squeeze it so that the clamping frame is placed on top of the support block.

[0022] Post-processing: S7. Remove the magnetic frame and fill the gap between the tempered glass and the soft top tarpaulin with tarpaulin sealant. Fix the cover frame to the top edge of the tempered glass by gluing.

[0023] Compared with the existing technology, the advantages of this application are:

[0024] (1) By using a single-component polyurethane adhesive as the base adhesive, the soft top tarpaulin is pre-treated before bonding, and the clamping frame is pre-installed in the through hole opened in the soft top tarpaulin. Then, the bonding between the soft top tarpaulin and the glass frame, as well as the bonding between the tempered glass and the glass frame, is achieved through the process of adhesive coating and bonding. The bonding between the material and the adhesive is pressed and bonded. The clamping frame and the glass frame are used as the transition points for firm bonding, thereby avoiding the difficult bonding between the tempered glass and the soft top tarpaulin. The operation process is simple, the bonding is firm, and the processing cost is low, which is conducive to wide promotion. At the same time, by filling the adhesive inside the annular airbag, the adhesive can be squeezed out to automatically seal the damaged position after the tarpaulin sealant is damaged by the rainwater entering the broken tarpaulin sealant, which is conducive to reducing the accumulation of rainwater in the connection gap between the tempered glass and the glass frame, avoiding the corrosion of the adhesive by rainwater, and further improving the firmness of the structural connection.

[0025] (2) By fixing multiple support blocks at the bottom of the glue groove a, the installation of the clamping frame can be supported, which is beneficial to ensure the amount of adhesive glue under the clamping frame and avoid excessive squeezing of the bottom glue when squeezing the clamping frame. To a certain extent, the precision and stability of the clamping frame installation in this structure are improved.

[0026] (3) By opening the adhesive groove b around the inner side of the adhesive groove a and filling the adhesive groove b with a fast solidification speed, the quick fixing adhesive can be quickly solidified during the bonding process between the tempered glass and the glass frame to achieve pre-fixation of the bonding between the glass frame and the tempered glass, which is beneficial to ensure the structural stability of the adhesive connection between the tempered glass and the glass frame.

[0027] (4) By fixing the outer frame around the outside of the glass frame, the outer side of the glass frame can be reinforced, which is beneficial to improving its structural strength. At the same time, by setting the interior of the outer frame as a hollow structure and fixing the reinforcing plate around the hollow structure, it is beneficial to reduce the consumables and quality of the outer frame, while ensuring its structural strength, it is beneficial to reduce manufacturing costs.

[0028] (5) The edge position of the through hole is set to an overlapping double-layer structure by flanging, which is conducive to improving the connection firmness between the clamping frame and the soft top tarpaulin after installation.

[0029] (6) By evenly opening the mounting holes inside the lower pressure strip and fixing the rivets corresponding to the mounting holes on the bottom of the upper pressure strip, the lower pressure strip and the upper pressure strip are fastened together by means of the insertion between the rivets and the mounting holes, and the extrusion deformation at the ends of the rivets to form a lock, which is conducive to improving the installation convenience between the clamping frame and the soft top tarpaulin. The interior of the rivet is set as a through-type structure, which is conducive to the filling of the adhesive inside, thereby improving the adhesion strength between the clamping frame and the adhesive.

[0030] (7) By fixing the permanent magnetic strip in the top end wall of the outer frame, during the connection between the soft top tarpaulin and the glass frame, the magnetic frame can be magnetically attracted by the permanent magnetic strip, and the soft top tarpaulin can be clamped with the help of the magnetic frame, which is conducive to ensuring the flatness and stability of the soft top tarpaulin during installation.

[0031] (8) The inside of the annular airbag is divided into multiple independent glue storage spaces by a diaphragm, so that the glue filled in the annular airbag can be triggered in sections, avoiding damage to a certain position of the tarpaulin sealant that causes all the glue in the annular airbag to solidify, which is conducive to fully utilizing the glue in the annular airbag.

[0032] (9) By covering the cover frame on the connection gap between the tempered glass and the soft top tarpaulin, the connection gap can be shielded to a certain extent, reducing the probability of rainwater entering the connection gap. At the same time, by setting the outer surface of the cover frame to a circular arc structure protruding outward and opening a diversion hole on the outer surface of the cover frame, when the vehicle is started, under the action of the pressure difference, the rainwater entering the connection gap between the tempered glass and the soft top tarpaulin can be quickly discharged outward, reducing the probability of rainwater accumulating in the connection gap, thereby ensuring the firmness of the connection between the tempered glass and the soft top tarpaulin.

[0046] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. Example

[0047] This application discloses a soft top tarpaulin and glass bonding structure, please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 11, including tempered glass 1 and soft top tarpaulin 2, a glass frame 3 is provided around the outer edge of the tempered glass 1, and a surrounding adhesive groove a301 is provided inside the glass frame 3, and the adhesive groove a301 is filled with adhesive 303 that adheres to the glass frame 3 and the tempered glass 1. A through hole that matches the size of the tempered glass 1 is provided on the soft top tarpaulin 2, and a clamping frame is fixedly installed at the edge of the through hole. The clamping frame includes a lower pressure strip 4 and an upper pressure strip that are clamped on both sides of the edge of the through hole. 402, the clamping frame is embedded in the glue groove a301 and fixed by adhesive 303. The adhesive 303 inside the glue groove a301 is also embedded with an annular airbag 6 set above the soft top tarpaulin 2, and the inside of the annular airbag 6 is filled with glue. The end wall of the annular airbag 6 on the side close to the connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 is evenly opened with glue seepage holes, and the inside of the glue seepage holes is covered with paper film. The connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 is surrounded and filled with tarpaulin sealant 308.

[0048] Under normal circumstances, the paper film seals the glue seepage port, so that the interior of the annular airbag 6 is in a relatively sealed state, and the glue in the annular airbag 6 cannot contact the external environment, so that the glue is in a flowing state. When the tarpaulin sealant 308 surrounding the connecting gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 is damaged, causing rainwater to seep into the connecting gap, the paper film covering the glue seepage port is soaked and broken by the infiltration of rainwater, and the glue in the annular airbag 6 can flow out through the opened glue seepage port. The glue will gradually solidify after contact with the external environment, especially the oxygen in the external environment. Due to the opening of the glue seepage port, the glue will be discharged outward from the glue seepage port under the action of the elasticity of the annular airbag 6 itself, filling the damaged position of the tarpaulin sealant 308, and then gradually solidify to repair the damaged tarpaulin sealant 308. The adhesive 303 is a single-component polyurethane glue.

[0049] By using a single-component polyurethane adhesive as a basic adhesive, the soft top tarpaulin 2 is pre-treated before bonding, and the clamping frame is pre-installed in the through hole opened in the soft top tarpaulin 2. Then, the bonding between the soft top tarpaulin 2 and the glass frame 3, as well as the bonding between the tempered glass 1 and the glass frame 3, is achieved through the process of adhesive coating and bonding. The bonding is performed by pressing and bonding using the adhesion between the material and the adhesive. With the clamping frame and the glass frame 3 as a transition point for firm bonding, the problem of difficult bonding between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 is avoided. The invention has the advantages of simple operation process, firm adhesion and low processing cost, which is conducive to wide promotion. At the same time, by filling the rubber material into the inside of the annular airbag 6, the paper film is soaked by rainwater after the tarpaulin sealant 308 is broken, so that the rubber material can be squeezed out after the tarpaulin sealant 308 is broken to automatically seal the broken position, which is conducive to reducing the accumulation of rainwater in the connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the glass frame 3, avoiding the corrosion of the adhesive 303 by rainwater, and further improving the connection firmness of the structure.

[0050] See also Figure 9 The bottom of the glue groove a301 is fixedly connected with multiple evenly distributed support blocks 302, the tops of the multiple support blocks 302 are located on the same horizontal plane, and the clamping frame is placed on the top of the multiple support blocks 302. By fixing the multiple support blocks 302 on the bottom of the glue groove a301, the installation of the clamping frame can be supported, which is beneficial to ensure the stock of adhesive 303 under the clamping frame, and avoid the bottom adhesive being excessively squeezed out when squeezing the clamping frame to install, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of the clamping frame installation in the structure to a certain extent.

[0051] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 9 , the glass frame 3 is surrounded by a glue groove b304, and the glue groove b304 is located inside the glue groove a301, and the glue groove b304 is filled with a quick fixing glue 305 that adheres to the glass frame 3 and the tempered glass 1. The solidification speed of the quick fixing glue 305 is faster than that of the adhesive glue 303. The quick fixing glue 305 solidifies quickly, and its connection firmness is poor. The adhesive glue 303 solidifies slowly, and its internal stress after solidification is small, and the adhesive glue 303 solidifies slowly. The connection after solidification is strong. By opening the glue groove b304 around the inner side of the glue groove a301 and filling the glue groove b304 with a fast solidification speed, the quick fixing glue 305 can be quickly solidified during the bonding process of the tempered glass 1 and the glass frame 3 to achieve pre-fixation of the adhesion between the glass frame 3 and the tempered glass 1, which is beneficial to ensure the structural stability of the cured connection between the adhesive 303 and the tempered glass 1 and the glass frame 3.

[0052] See also Figure 1 and Figure 5An outer frame 306 is fixed around the outside of the glass frame 3, and the interior of the outer frame 306 is set to a hollow structure. A reinforcing plate 307 is fixed around the middle position of the inner part of the outer frame 306. The top of the outer frame 306 is flush with the top of the tempered glass 1. By fixing the outer frame 306 around the outside of the glass frame 3, the outer side of the glass frame 3 can be reinforced, which is beneficial to improving its structural strength. At the same time, by setting the interior of the outer frame 306 to a hollow structure and fixing the reinforcing plate 307 around the hollow structure, it is beneficial to reduce the consumables and quality of the outer frame 306, while ensuring its structural strength, it is beneficial to reduce manufacturing costs.

Holes corresponding to the plurality of mounting holes 401 are opened on the double-layer structure. Rivets 403 corresponding to the plurality of mounting holes 401 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper pressure strip 402, and the interior of the rivet 403 is set as a through-type structure. The rivet 403 passes through the corresponding holes and the mounting holes 401 and is locked at the bottom of the lower pressure strip 4 by extrusion deformation. By evenly opening the mounting holes 401 on the lower pressure strip The interior of the strip 4 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the upper strip 402 with a rivet 403 corresponding to the mounting hole 401. By means of the insertion between the rivet 403 and the mounting hole 401 and the extrusion deformation at the end of the rivet 403 to form a lock, a fastening connection between the lower strip 4 and the upper strip 402 is achieved, which is beneficial to improving the installation convenience between the clamping frame and the soft top tarpaulin 2. The interior of the rivet 403 is set as a through structure, which is beneficial to filling the adhesive 303 inside, thereby improving the adhesion strength between the clamping frame and the adhesive 303.

[0055] See also Figure 1 and Figure 5 A permanent magnetic strip 309 is embedded in the top end wall of the outer frame 306, and a magnetic frame 5 is placed on the top of the soft top tarpaulin 2 and is sleeved on the outside of the through hole. The position of the magnetic frame 5 corresponds to the position of the outer frame 306. By fixing the permanent magnetic strip 309 in the top end wall of the outer frame 306, during the connection process between the soft top tarpaulin 2 and the glass frame 3, the magnetic frame 5 can be magnetically attracted by the permanent magnetic strip 309 to clamp the soft top tarpaulin 2 with the help of the magnetic frame 5, which is conducive to ensuring the flatness and stability of the soft top tarpaulin 2 during the installation process.

[0056] Multiple diaphragms are evenly fixed inside the annular airbag 6, and the interior of the annular airbag 6 is divided into multiple independent glue storage spaces by the diaphragms. The glue is evenly filled in the multiple independent glue storage spaces. The interior of the annular airbag 6 is divided into multiple independent glue storage spaces by the diaphragms, so that the glue filled in the annular airbag 6 can be triggered in sections, avoiding damage to a certain position on the tarpaulin sealant 308 that causes all the glue in the annular airbag 6 to solidify, which is conducive to fully utilizing the glue in the annular airbag 6.

[0057] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 A cover frame 601 covering the connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 is fixedly attached to the top edge of the tempered glass 1, and the outer surface of the cover frame 601 is set to a circular arc structure protruding outward. A plurality of guide holes 602 corresponding to the connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 are evenly opened on the outer surface of the cover frame 601. By covering the connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft top tarpaulin 2 with the cover frame 601, the connection gap can be shielded to a certain extent, reducing the risk of rainwater entering the connection gap. At the same time, by setting the outer surface of the cover frame 601 to a circular arc structure protruding outward, and opening a guide hole 602 on the outer surface of the cover frame 601, when the vehicle is started, the flow rate of the airflow through the outer surface of the cover frame 601 increases, thereby reducing the pressure at the outer surface of the cover frame 601. Under the action of the pressure difference, rainwater entering the connection gap between the tempered glass 1 and the soft-top tarpaulin 2 can be quickly discharged outward, thereby reducing the probability of rainwater accumulating at the connection gap, thereby ensuring the firmness of the connection between the tempered glass 1 and the soft-top tarpaulin 2.
