Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to vehicles, specifically providing a vehicle body side panel structure, a taillight assembly, and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle exterior design is one of the key factors for a car model's success; a beautiful exterior design always brings users an ultimate visual experience. Headlights, in particular, are like the eyes of a vehicle, playing a crucial role in enhancing its overall design.

[0003] The current taillight design is limited by the matching relationship between the taillight and the side panel, resulting in the black edge area of ​​the taillight (i.e., the taillight welding area) being exposed. This creates a non-light-emitting area around the taillight, making it difficult to present a clean light-emitting area to the user.

[0004] Clean, minimalist taillight designs are increasingly popular with stylists and consumers alike. Therefore, designing a vehicle side structure that can accommodate these clean taillight requirements has become a pressing issue. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, namely, to solve the problem that the black edge area of ​​the existing taillights is exposed and visible, making it difficult to present a pure light-emitting area to the user.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a vehicle body side panel structure for mounting a taillight assembly, the taillight assembly having a black border area, the vehicle body side panel structure comprising:

[0007] Side panel; and

[0008] A taillight mounting plate is fixedly connected to the outer side panel. The taillight mounting plate forms a taillight mounting cavity. The taillight mounting cavity has an inner cavity, and one end of the inner cavity has an end opening. The taillight mounting cavity is configured such that the height of the end opening is less than the height of the inner cavity, so that the black edge area of ​​the taillight assembly is hidden in the taillight mounting cavity.

[0009] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned vehicle body side panel structure, the rear end of the side panel outer plate is provided with a edging portion, and the taillight mounting plate includes a first taillight mounting plate and a second taillight mounting plate. One end of the first taillight mounting plate forms a groove-shaped edging structure with the edging portion, and the other end of the first taillight mounting plate is fixedly connected to the second taillight mounting plate.

[0010] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned vehicle body side panel structure, the taillight mounting cavity extends at least 20mm above the edge of the outer side panel in the height direction.

[0011] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned vehicle body side structure, the second taillight mounting plate is provided with mounting points for mounting the taillight assembly.

[0012] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned vehicle body side panel structure, the periphery of the second taillight mounting plate is provided with a welding part for welding to the corresponding side panel outer plate and the first taillight mounting plate.

[0013] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned vehicle body side panel structure, the rear end of the side panel outer plate is provided with a flange, and the taillight mounting plate includes a first taillight mounting plate and a second taillight mounting plate. One end of the first taillight mounting plate is riveted to the flange, and the other end of the first taillight mounting plate is fixedly connected to the second taillight mounting plate.

[0014] In the preferred embodiment of the above-mentioned vehicle body side panel structure, the rear end of the side panel outer plate is provided with a flange, and the taillight mounting plate includes a first taillight mounting plate and a second taillight mounting plate. One end of the first taillight mounting plate is welded to the flange, and the other end of the first taillight mounting plate is fixedly connected to the second taillight mounting plate.

[0015] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned vehicle body side structure, the taillight assembly is divided into a taillight appearance area and a taillight concealed area. The taillight appearance area is a visible area, and the taillight concealed area is hidden in the taillight mounting cavity. The height of the taillight concealed area is greater than the height of the taillight appearance area.

[0016] In a second aspect, the present invention also provides a taillight assembly, including the aforementioned vehicle body side panel structure and the taillight assembly, wherein the taillight assembly is mounted at the taillight mounting cavity.

[0017] In a third aspect, the present invention also provides a vehicle including the taillight assembly described above.

[0018] When the above technical solution is adopted, after the taillight mounting plate of the present invention is fixedly connected to the side outer plate, the taillight mounting plate forms a taillight mounting cavity. The taillight mounting cavity is constructed such that the height of the end opening is less than the height of the inner cavity, so that the black edge area of ​​the taillight assembly is hidden in the taillight mounting cavity, achieving a taillight shape with a clean and non-luminous area around the perimeter.

[0019] Furthermore, the structure of the taillight mounting cavity described above also allows the exposed part of the taillight assembly to form a slim taillight, achieving a slimmer visual effect.

[0020] This invention enables the creation of taillights with a clean appearance and slim shape, thereby increasing the freedom of design and enhancing the user's aesthetic perception. Attached Figure Description

[0050] Bumper of the 50s generation. Detailed Implementation

[0051] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the invention. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments as needed to adapt to specific applications.

[0052] It should be noted that in the description of this invention, terms such as "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," indicating directional or positional relationships, are based on the directional or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. These are merely for ease of description and do not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation; therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances. The inventor discovered that: Figure 1 The diagram shows a prior art vehicle body perimeter structure assembled with the taillight assembly 5 and rear bumper 4. The vehicle body side structure includes a side panel 1 and a taillight mounting plate 2. Due to the matching relationship between the taillight assembly 5 and the vehicle body side structure, the taillight mounting chamber 3 formed by the taillight mounting plate 2 has a large outer opening and a small inner cavity. The height of the outer opening is a first height H1, and the height of the inner cavity is a second height H2. That is, the first height H1 is greater than the second height H2, causing the height dimension of the taillight's appearance to always be greater than the height dimension of the internal structure. This results in the black edge area of ​​the taillight, i.e., the taillight welding area 6, being exposed and visible, forming a non-luminous area around the taillight, making it difficult to present a pure luminous area to the user. In addition, the matching relationship between the taillight assembly 5 and the vehicle body side structure also makes it difficult to make the taillight's appearance slim. Therefore, how to design a vehicle body side structure that can adapt to the requirements of a pure and slim taillight has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0053] Figure 2 This is a schematic perspective view of a taillight assembly installed in the outer structure of a vehicle body according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 The diagram shows the installation relationship between the taillight assembly and the vehicle's external structure. Figure 3 yes Figure 2 The diagram shows the exploded view of the taillight assembly and the outer structure of the vehicle body. Figure 10 This is a schematic perspective view of the vehicle body perimeter structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 11 It is along Figure 10 A schematic cross-sectional view after cutting along the middle BB line. Figure 11 The positional relationship and connection relationship of the outer side panels and taillight mounting plate are shown. Figure 13 This is a schematic perspective view of a taillight assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 14 It is along Figure 13 A schematic cross-sectional view after being cut along the CC line. Figure 15 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of a taillight assembly installed in the side structure of a vehicle body according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 16 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of the vehicle body side structure according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 17 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of the vehicle body side structure according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, see also Figure 3 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figures 13-17 To address the issue of exposed black borders in existing taillights, which hinder the presentation of a clean, luminous area to the user, this invention provides a vehicle body side panel structure I for mounting a taillight assembly 40. The taillight assembly 40 includes a black border area, i.e., the taillight welding area 43 (see...). Figure 14 , Figure 15 The vehicle body side structure I generally includes an outer side panel 10 and a taillight mounting plate 20. For example... Figure 11 As shown, the taillight mounting plate 20 is fixedly connected to the side panel outer plate 10. The taillight mounting plate 20 forms a taillight mounting cavity 30, which has an inner cavity 31. One end of the inner cavity 31 has an end opening 32. The taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31. Figure 15 As shown, the black border area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 can be hidden inside the taillight mounting cavity 30, and the exposed part of the taillight assembly 40 can form a slim taillight.

[0055] The taillight mounting plate 20 can be a single plate or composed of multiple plates, depending on the molding requirements.

[0056] In specific implementation, such as Figure 11 As shown, the taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31. This can be achieved by the height of the end opening 32 of the taillight mounting cavity 30 being less than the height of a portion of the inner cavity of the taillight mounting cavity 30. Figure 15 As shown, the range of this partial inner cavity is greater than or equal to the black border area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 corresponding to the partial inner cavity, i.e., the taillight welding part 43. Of course, in other embodiments, the taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, which means that the height of the end opening 32 of the taillight mounting cavity 30 is less than the total height of the inner cavity of the taillight mounting cavity 30.

[0057] When the above technical solution is adopted, such as Figure 11As shown, after the taillight mounting plate 20 of the present invention is fixedly connected to the side panel 10, the taillight mounting plate 20 forms a taillight mounting cavity 30. The taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, as shown. Figure 15 As shown, this allows the black border area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 to be hidden inside the taillight mounting cavity 30 during installation, achieving a clean taillight design without a surrounding non-light-emitting area.

[0058] Furthermore, the structure of the taillight mounting cavity 30 described above also allows for a smaller exposed portion of the taillight assembly 40, resulting in a slimmer taillight and a more slender visual effect.

[0059] Therefore, this invention can realize the design intent of taillights with a clean appearance and slim shape, thereby increasing the degree of design freedom and enhancing the user's aesthetic perception.

[0060] Figure 4 This is a schematic perspective view of the outer side plate according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 This is a schematic perspective view of the first taillight mounting plate according to an embodiment of the present invention from one angle. Figure 6 This is a schematic cross-sectional view of a first taillight mounting plate and a side panel outer plate installed together according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 7 This is a schematic perspective view of the first taillight mounting plate according to an embodiment of the present invention from another angle. Figure 8 This is a schematic perspective view of a first taillight mounting plate and a second taillight mounting plate welded together according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 9 It is along Figure 8 A schematic cross-sectional view after being cut along line AA.

[0061] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 4 As shown, the rear end of the side panel 10 is provided with a binding portion 11. (As indicated...) Figure 8 As shown, see also Figure 9 The taillight mounting plate includes a first taillight mounting plate 21 and a second taillight mounting plate 22. For example... Figure 5 As shown, one end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is the outer edge 211, as... Figure 6 As shown, one end of the first taillight mounting plate 21, i.e., the outer edge 211, forms a groove-shaped edging structure 110 with the edging portion 11 of the side panel 10. For example... Figure 7 As shown, the other end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is the inner edge 212, and the other end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is also provided with a welding part 213 for the first taillight mounting plate, that is... Figure 7 The shaded area in the image. For example... Figure 8 As shown, see also Figure 9The other end, i.e., the inner edge, of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the second taillight mounting plate 22. In specific implementation, the fixed connection between the other end, i.e., the inner edge, of the first taillight mounting plate 21 and the second taillight mounting plate 22 can be welded.

[0062] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 9 As shown, see also Figure 11 As shown, the first taillight mounting plate 21 and the second taillight mounting plate 22 form a taillight mounting cavity 30. The taillight mounting cavity 30 runs smoothly through the entire taillight mounting area along its length without interference. The taillight mounting cavity 30 extends at least 20mm above the edge of the edging portion 11 of the side panel 10 in the height direction. The taillight mounting cavity 30 not only provides vertical space for the taillight assembly 40 but also provides working space for the edging tools.

[0063] Figure 12 This is a schematic perspective view of a second taillight mounting plate according to an embodiment of the present invention. As one possible implementation, such as... Figure 12 As shown, the second taillight mounting plate 22 has mounting points 221 for mounting the taillight assembly 40. In specific implementations, the number of mounting points 221 can be multiple, for example... Figure 12 The three spaced mounting points 221 shown provide a base for the installation of the taillight assembly 40. Specifically, the second taillight mounting plate 22 can be formed as a single piece of plate, or it can be welded together from several plates according to molding requirements.

[0064] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 12 As shown, the second taillight mounting plate 22 has a welding portion 222 around its periphery, such as... Figure 12 As shown in the shaded area, the welding part 222 of the second taillight mounting plate is used to weld to the corresponding side panel 10 and the first taillight mounting plate 21.

[0065] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 13 The outline of a taillight assembly 40 is shown. Figure 14 The internal structure of the taillight assembly 40 is shown. (As shown) Figure 15 As shown, see also Figure 14 The taillight assembly 40 includes a taillight cover 45, a taillight rear housing 46, and a functional part 44. The functional part 44 is installed in the taillight rear housing 46. The open end of the taillight rear housing 46 covers the taillight cover 45. The taillight cover 45 and the taillight rear housing 46 are welded together by a connector to form the taillight welding part 43, i.e., the black edge area.

[0066] like Figure 15As shown, the taillight assembly 40 is installed in the taillight mounting cavity 30 of the side structure I of the vehicle body. Under the cover of the outer side panel 10 and the rear bumper 50, a portion of the taillight assembly 40 is exposed, while the rest is hidden in the taillight mounting cavity 30. Figure 14 As shown, the taillight assembly 40 is divided into an external taillight area 41 and an internal taillight area 42, depending on whether they are visible from the outside. Figure 15 As shown, the taillight exterior area 41 is the visible area, and it matches the edge of the edging portion 11 of the side panel 10. The taillight concealed area 42 is hidden within the taillight mounting cavity 30 and is not visible. The height H of the taillight concealed area is greater than the height h of the taillight exterior area. This structure allows the large and complex internal structure of the taillight to be concealed within the vehicle body. Figure 15 The grooved edging structure conceals the inner area D of the taillight, making the taillights appear cleaner and slimmer.

[0067] It should be noted that the height H of the taillight concealed area can refer to the height corresponding to the taillight welding area 43, or it can refer to the height corresponding to all positions of the taillight concealed area 42.

[0068] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 16 As shown, the rear end of the side panel 10 is provided with a flange 12. The taillight mounting plate 20 includes a first taillight mounting plate 21 and a second taillight mounting plate (not shown in the figure). One end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is riveted to the flange 12, and the other end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the second taillight mounting plate, for example, by welding. The taillight mounting plate 20 forms a taillight mounting cavity 30, which has an inner cavity 31. One end of the inner cavity 31 has an end opening 32. The taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, so that the black edge area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 is hidden inside the taillight mounting cavity 30, and the exposed part of the taillight assembly 40 forms a slim taillight.

[0069] The taillight mounting plate 20 can be a single plate or composed of multiple plates, depending on the molding requirements.

[0070] In specific implementation, such as Figure 16 As shown, the taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, meaning the height of the end opening 32 of the taillight mounting cavity 30 is less than the height of the entire inner cavity of the taillight mounting cavity 30. Of course, in other embodiments, the taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, meaning the height of the end opening 32 of the taillight mounting cavity 30 is less than the height of a portion of the inner cavity of the taillight mounting cavity 30, where the range of this portion of the inner cavity is greater than or equal to the black border area of ​​the corresponding taillight assembly 40.

[0071] When the above technical solution is adopted, after the taillight mounting plate 20 of the present invention is fixedly connected to the side outer plate 10, the taillight mounting plate 20 forms a taillight mounting cavity 30. The taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, so that the black edge area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 is hidden in the taillight mounting cavity 30 during installation, achieving a taillight shape with a clean and non-luminous area around the taillight.

[0072] Furthermore, the structure of the taillight mounting cavity 30 described above also allows for a smaller exposed portion of the taillight assembly 40, resulting in a slimmer taillight and a more slender visual effect.

[0073] Therefore, this invention can realize the design intent of taillights with a clean appearance and slim shape, thereby increasing the degree of design freedom and enhancing the user's aesthetic perception.

[0074] As one possible implementation method, such as Figure 17 As shown, the rear end of the side panel 10 is provided with a flange 12. The taillight mounting plate 20 includes a first taillight mounting plate 21 and a second taillight mounting plate 22. One end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is welded to the flange 12, and the other end of the first taillight mounting plate 21 is fixedly connected to the second taillight mounting plate 22, for example, by welding. The taillight mounting plate 20 forms a taillight mounting cavity 30, which has an inner cavity 31. One end of the inner cavity 31 has an end opening 32. The taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity, so that the black edge area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 is hidden inside the taillight mounting cavity 30, and the exposed part of the taillight assembly 40 forms a slim taillight.

[0075] The taillight mounting plate 20 can be a single plate or composed of multiple plates, depending on the molding requirements.

[0076] In specific implementation, such as Figure 17 As shown, the first taillight mounting plate 21 and the second taillight mounting plate 22 are first welded together, and then the first taillight mounting plate 21 is welded together with the edge portion 11 of the side panel 10.

[0077] In specific implementation, such as Figure 17 As shown, the taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, meaning the height of the end opening 32 of the taillight mounting cavity 30 is less than the height of the entire inner cavity of the taillight mounting cavity 30. Of course, in other embodiments, the taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, meaning the height of the end opening 32 of the taillight mounting cavity 30 is less than the height of a portion of the inner cavity of the taillight mounting cavity 30, where the range of this portion of the inner cavity is greater than or equal to the black border area of ​​the corresponding taillight assembly 40.

[0078] When the above technical solution is adopted, after the taillight mounting plate 20 of the present invention is fixedly connected to the side outer plate 10, the taillight mounting plate 20 forms a taillight mounting cavity 30. The taillight mounting cavity 30 is configured such that the height of the end opening 32 is less than the height of the inner cavity 31, so that the black edge area of ​​the taillight assembly 40 is hidden in the taillight mounting cavity 30 during installation, achieving a taillight shape with a clean and non-luminous area around the taillight.

[0079] Furthermore, the structure of the taillight mounting cavity 30 described above also allows for a smaller exposed portion of the taillight assembly 40, resulting in a slimmer taillight and a more slender visual effect.

[0080] Therefore, this invention can realize the design intent of taillights with a clean appearance and slim shape, thereby increasing the degree of design freedom and enhancing the user's aesthetic perception.

[0081] See Figure 2 See also Figures 3-17 The present invention also provides a taillight assembly, including the aforementioned vehicle body side panel structure I and taillight assembly 40, wherein the taillight assembly 40 is mounted at the taillight mounting cavity 30.
