Detailed Implementation

[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] Furthermore, reference numerals and / or reference letters may be repeated in different examples in this application. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity purposes and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed. In addition, this application provides examples of various specific processes and materials; however, those skilled in the art will recognize the application of other processes and / or the use of other materials.

[0042] This application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1-5 This application embodiment provides a front grille, combined with Figure 1 The front grille includes a main frame 100, connectors 200 and decorative elements 300. Multiple connectors 200 are detachably spaced on the main frame 100, and multiple decorative elements 300 are positionally adjustable and detachably connected to the connectors 200.

[0044] Specifically, the main frame 100 of the front grille on the car has a hollow structure to facilitate air intake and heat dissipation for the car's engine. Therefore, the connectors 200 are installed on the main frame 100 in a spaced-out manner to avoid obstructing the hollow parts of the front grille. The decorative piece 300 is installed on the front grille via the connectors 200. Since the position of the decorative piece 300 on the connector 200 is adjustable, the desired type of decorative piece 300 is first installed on the connector 200, and then the decorative piece 300 installed on the connector 200 is adjusted to the desired position before the connector 200 with the decorative piece 300 installed is installed on the main frame 100. Furthermore, the connectors 200 and the main frame 100, as well as the decorative piece 300 and the connector 200, are detachable, facilitating the installation and removal of the connectors 200 and the decorative piece 300.

[0045] In some embodiments, the connector 200 and the main frame 100 can be connected by detachable methods such as threaded connection or snap-fit ​​connection, and this application embodiment does not limit this. In order to facilitate the disassembly of the connector 200 and the main frame 100, this application embodiment adopts a snap-fit ​​connection, thereby connecting the connector 200 to the main frame 100 through a snap-fit ​​structure. If a threaded connection is used, a bolt needs to be inserted between the connector 200 and the main frame 100, and then the connector 200 and the main frame 100 are connected by tightening the nut. Alternatively, a threaded hole can be opened in the main frame 100, and a screw can be inserted into the connector 200, so that the screw is connected to the threaded hole of the main frame 100, thereby realizing the connection between the connector 200 and the main frame 100. Compared with the snap-fit ​​connection, the threaded connection is less convenient and efficient in terms of disassembly and assembly.

[0046] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the connector 200 includes a snap-fit ​​part 210, which is disposed on the side of the connector 200 that is connected to the main frame 100. The main frame 100 has a snap-fit ​​hole 101 that is correspondingly connected to the snap-fit ​​part 210 of the connector 200. The snap-fit ​​part 210 of the connector 200 is engaged in the snap-fit ​​hole 101 of the main frame 100, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the connector 200 and the main frame 100.

[0047] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the latching portion 210 of the connector 200 includes elastic bodies arranged at relatively intervals. One end of the two elastic bodies is connected to the body of the connector 200, and the other ends of the two elastic bodies are respectively provided with protrusions facing away from each other. When the latching portion 210 is inserted into the latching hole 101 of the main frame 100, the protrusions on the two elastic bodies are squeezed by the latching hole 101, thereby causing the distance between the elastic bodies to decrease. After the protrusions on the two elastic bodies pass through the latching hole 101, the distance between the two elastic bodies returns to the distance when they are not squeezed under the action of elastic force. The protrusions on the two elastic bodies are both locked on the main frame 100, thereby realizing that the latching portion 210 of the connector 200 is locked in the latching hole 101 of the main frame 100.

[0048] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 as well as Figure 2As shown, the connector 200 has multiple latching parts 210 spaced apart along its length, and the main frame 100 has latching holes 101 spaced apart corresponding to the multiple latching parts 210 of the connector 200. The multiple latching parts 210 on the connector 200 are respectively connected to the corresponding latching holes 101 on the main frame 100, thereby ensuring a stable connection between the connector 200 and the main frame 100.

[0049] In some implementations, such as Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the connector 200 also includes a fixing part 220. The snap-fit ​​part 210 of the connector 200 is disposed on the side of the fixing part 220 of the connector 200 near the main frame 100. The main frame 100 is provided with a mounting groove 102 on the side near the connector 200. The fixing part 220 of the connector 200 is disposed in the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100. The snap-fit ​​hole 101 is opened at the bottom of the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100. Thus, while the fixing part 220 of the connector 200 is installed into the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100, the snap-fit ​​part 210 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​hole 101, so as to further realize the stable connection between the connector 200 and the main frame 100 through the mounting groove 102 and the snap-fit ​​connection structure. It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the connection and installation between the connector 200 and the main frame 100, the opening direction of the buckle hole 101 of the main frame 100 is perpendicular to the length direction of the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100. Correspondingly, the setting direction of the buckle part 210 is also perpendicular to the length direction of the fixing part 220.

[0050] In some embodiments, the fixing part 220 of the connector 200 can be a cylindrical structure. Correspondingly, the mounting groove 102 on the main frame 100 can also be a circular structure. The opening width of the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100 is smaller than the diameter of its circular structure. Furthermore, both the main frame 100 and the connector 200 are made of a relatively soft material (such as plastic). Thus, when the fixing part 220 of the connector 200 is engaged in the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100, the installation and fixing can be achieved by the extrusion deformation of the fixing part 220 of the connector 200 and the mounting groove 102 of the main frame 100.

[0051] In some embodiments, the decorative part 300 and the connector 200 can be connected by a detachable connection method such as a threaded connection or a snap-fit ​​connection, and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.

[0052] In some implementations, such as Figure 2 as well as Figure 3As shown, the connector 200 also includes a raised edge portion 230, which is disposed on the side of the connector 200 away from the main frame 100 along the length direction of the connector 200. A sliding groove 301 is provided on the decorative piece 300 along the length direction of the decorative piece 300. The raised edge portion 230 of the connector 200 can be slidably disposed in the sliding groove 301 of the decorative piece 300 along the length direction of the decorative piece 300, thereby enabling the decorative piece 300 to slide along the length direction of the connector 200, thereby realizing the adjustable connection of the decorative piece 300 on the connector 200.

[0053] Furthermore, when the connector 200 is installed onto the main frame 100, the protruding edge 230 of the connector 200 will press against the surface of the main frame 100. Since the connector 200 is made of a relatively soft material, when the connector 200 with the decorative element 300 is installed onto the main frame 100, the decorative element 300 will press against the surface of the main frame 100 under the action of the protruding edge 230 of the connector 200.

[0054] The protruding edge 230 can be a T-shaped structure, and the sliding groove 301 of the decorative part 300 is also a corresponding T-shaped structure, thereby achieving a stable connection between the protruding edge 230 and the sliding groove 301 of the decorative part 300.

[0055] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the decorative component 300 includes a locking rod 400, a limiting block 500, and an elastic element 600. The locking rod 400 has a radially formed telescopic groove 401. The limiting block 500 is telescopically disposed within the telescopic groove 401 of the locking rod 400. The limiting block 500 and the bottom of the telescopic groove 401 are connected by the elastic element 600. The elastic element 600 can be a spring, rubber, or other elastic structural component. This embodiment does not limit the type of elastic element. Thus, the telescopic movement of the limiting block 500 within the telescopic groove 401 of the locking rod 400 is achieved through the elastic element 600. The decorative element 300 has a rotating hole 302 along its length. The locking rod 400 is rotatably inserted into the rotating hole 302 of the decorative element 300 around its central axis. The decorative element 300 has a telescopic hole 303 that connects the wall of the rotating hole 302 to the bottom of the sliding groove 301. The limiting block 500 can telescopically move within the telescopic hole 303. The connecting element 200 has multiple positioning holes 201 spaced apart along its length, which can be respectively connected to the limiting blocks 500.

[0056] Specifically, when the locking rod 400 is inserted into the rotating hole 302 of the decorative part 300, the limiting block 500 needs to be fully compressed into the telescopic groove 401 of the locking rod 400. When the decorative part 300 is moved to the required position on the connector 200, the telescopic hole 303 of the decorative part 300 corresponds to the positioning hole 201 of the required position on the connector 200. The locking rod 400 is rotated to make the limiting block 500 rotate to the telescopic hole 303 of the decorative part 300. Then, under the elastic force of the elastic member 600, the limiting block 500 extends out of the telescopic groove 401 of the locking rod 400 and passes through the telescopic hole 303 of the decorative part 300. Subsequently, it is inserted into the positioning hole 201 of the connector 200 corresponding to the required position of the decorative part 300, thereby locking the decorative part 300 in the required position on the connector 200. In addition, the positioning holes 201 spaced along the length of the connector 200 can be used to set the decorative parts 300 at different positions on the connector 200. Furthermore, by setting the positioning holes 201 with different spacing on the connector 200, more ways of setting the decorative parts 300 can be achieved.

[0057] It should be noted that the main frame 100 of the fixing part is generally composed of a frame and internal components. The internal components can be mesh structures, or cross- and / or spaced rods, etc. If the internal components of the main frame 100 of the fixing part are mesh structures, then snap-fit ​​holes 101, first mounting grooves 102, and second mounting grooves 103 are provided in the mesh structures. If the internal components of the main frame 100 of the fixing part are rods, the snap-fit ​​holes 101, first mounting grooves 102, and second mounting grooves 103 are generally spaced apart along the length of the rods, so that decorative parts 200 and connecting parts 300 are provided on the rods.

[0058] In some embodiments, the main frame 100 includes a border and rods, wherein multiple rods are arranged inside the border. Multiple rods can be arranged at intervals or cross each other inside the border to form different types of main frame 100. The arrangement can be made according to specific requirements. The space between the rods inside the border is the hollow part of the main frame 100.

[0059] In some embodiments, the connector 200 is disposed on the rod along its length direction, and the length direction of the connector 200 is the same as the length direction of the rod. It can be considered that the connector 200 entirely covers the surface of the rod. The protruding edge 230 of the connector 200 can cover the mounting groove 102 on the main frame 100, and also serves a decorative function. Typically, the decorative piece 300 is only installed on the rods of the main frame 100, thus only the snap-fit ​​hole 101 and the mounting groove 102 along the length direction of the rod are opened on the rod.

[0060] In some embodiments, the connector 200 has a channel 202 along its length, and the channel 202 of the decorative part 300 can be used for wire harnesses or light strips to pass through, so as to protect the wire harnesses or light strips and improve their appearance.

[0061] Furthermore, this application also proposes an automobile that includes the aforementioned front grille.

[0062] Overall, the front grille of the car proposed in this application embodiment has good versatility. It can achieve diversified and personalized decoration requirements of the front grille by replacing different decorative parts 300 and setting the decorative parts 300 in different positions on the front grille, without replacing the entire front grille, thus reducing production costs.
