[0031] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawing figures, wherein the same or like reference numerals and characters are used throughout the figures to denote like components. The embodiments described below are exemplary in nature, and are intended to be illustrative of the present application rather than to limit the present application.

[0032] Reference will now be made to Figures 1-4A top cover beam assembly 100 according to a first aspect of the present invention is described.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the top cover beam assembly 100 according to a first aspect embodiment of the present invention includes: a top cover side beam 10 and a sealing plate 20.

[0034] Specifically, the top cover side beam 10 extends forward and backward, and the sealing plate 20 extends forward and backward. The sealing plate 20 is connected to the top cover side beam 10 and cooperates with the top cover side beam 10 to define the mounting cavity 30. The mounting cavity 30 is used to accommodate the vehicle's outward swing door guide mechanism.

[0035] During the opening and closing of the outward swing door, the outward swing door guide mechanism moves to drive the outward swing door to open and close. During the movement of the outward swing door guide mechanism, it may bump into passengers inside the vehicle. Furthermore, when the outward swing door is applied to a smaller vehicle (such as a passenger car), the distance between the outward swing door guide mechanism and the passenger's head is relatively close. During the movement of the outward swing door guide mechanism, it may bump into the passenger's head, thereby affecting the passenger's riding experience or even causing injury to the passenger.

[0036] In this embodiment, the sealing plate 20 and the top cover side beam 10 cooperate to define the mounting cavity 30. Thus, after the outward swing door guide mechanism is assembled in the mounting cavity 30, the sealing plate 20 can isolate the mounting cavity 30 from the vehicle interior space. During the process of the outward swing door guide mechanism moving to open and close the outward swing door, the outward swing door guide mechanism can be prevented from contacting the passenger.

[0037] According to the first aspect of the present invention, the top cover beam assembly 100 defines the mounting cavity 30 of the outward swing door guide mechanism by the cooperation of the top cover side beam 10 and the sealing plate 20, which can isolate the outward swing door guide mechanism from the vehicle interior space, thereby avoiding interference to the passengers inside the vehicle and improving the passenger riding experience.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the sealing plate 20 includes multiple plate segments. For example, the sealing plate 20 may include two, three, or four plate segments, each of which is an independent component. The multiple plate segments are arranged sequentially in the front-back direction. At least one of the multiple plate segments is welded to the top cover side beam 10. For example, the number of plate segments welded to the top cover side beam 10 may be one, two, or three. At least one of the multiple plate segments is connected to the top cover side beam 10 by fasteners 40. For example, the number of plate segments connected to the top cover side beam 10 by fasteners 40 may be one, two, or three.

[0039] In use of the vehicle, the outswing door guide mechanism is in contact with the external environment, in order to avoid water and dust brought in by the outswing door guide mechanism into the installation cavity 30 from entering the vehicle, the sealing plate 20 needs to be sealingly connected with the roof side beam 10. And when the outswing door guide mechanism fails, the outswing door guide mechanism in the installation cavity 30 needs to be repaired.

[0040] When the plate segment is welded to the roof side beam 10, the sealing between the plate segment and the roof side beam 10 can be achieved; when the plate segment is connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40, the plate segment and the roof side beam 10 are detachably connected, and a sealing member 50 needs to be provided between the plate segment and the roof side beam 10 to achieve sealing.

[0041] In the embodiment, by welding at least one plate segment to the roof side beam 10, the number of plate segments connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40 can be reduced, thereby reducing the sealing area of the sealing member 50, and further reducing the operation time of the assembly process of the sealing member 50, thereby improving the production efficiency and improving the reliability of the sealing between the sealing plate 20 and the roof side beam 10. By connecting at least one plate segment to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40, when the outswing door guide mechanism needs to be repaired, the plate segment connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40 can be removed, thereby facilitating the repair of the guide mechanism, and when the outswing door guide mechanism is assembled, the process of connecting the plate segment to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40 is after the process of assembling the outswing door guide mechanism in the installation cavity 30, so that the assembly of the outswing door guide mechanism can be provided with a avoiding space, the assembly of the outswing door mechanism in the installation cavity 30 is realized, and the assembly difficulty is reduced.

[0042] In addition, by providing a plurality of plate segments, the number of plate segments can be adjusted during vehicle design, thereby meeting more design requirements, by welding at least one of the plurality of plate segments to the roof side beam 10 and connecting at least one of the plurality of plate segments to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40, the number of plate segments welded to the roof side beam 10 and the number of plate segments connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40 can be adjusted during vehicle design, thereby further meeting the design requirements.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, the plurality of plate segments includes a first segment 21, a second segment 22 and a third segment 23 arranged in sequence from front to back, the first segment 21 and the third segment 23 are welded to the roof side beam 10, and the second segment 22 is fixedly connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40.

[0044] In production, the first section 21 and the third section 23 are first connected to the roof side beam 10 by welding, then the outer swing door guide mechanism is installed in the installation cavity 30, and then the second section 22 is fixedly connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40. Among them, the first section 21 and the third section 23 are welded to the roof side beam 10, which can realize the sealing connection of the first end and the third section 23 with the roof side beam 10, and the second section 22 is fixedly connected to the roof side beam 10 by the fastener 40, which can set the installation process of the second section 22 after the installation process of the outer swing door guide mechanism, so as to provide a space for the installation of the outer swing door guide mechanism, and the second section 22 is detachable on the roof side beam 10, which is convenient for troubleshooting of the outer swing door guide mechanism.

[0045] In some embodiments of the application, as shown in Figure 2 The installation cavity 30 is provided with a first installation part 31 for installing a front outer swing door stay rod, and the first section 21 is formed with a first operation hole 2111 penetrating through the first section 21 in the thickness direction, the first operation hole 2111 is communicated with the installation cavity 30, and the first operation hole 2111 is opposite to the first installation part 31 in the depth direction of the first operation hole 2111.

[0046] In the installation of the front outer swing door stay rod, the front outer swing door stay rod is inserted between the first section 21 and the roof side beam 10, and then the operator installs the front outer swing door stay rod on the first installation part 31 through the first operation hole 2111. Among them, by setting the first installation part 31, the first installation part 31 can provide a mounting point for the front outer swing door stay rod, so as to realize the installation of the front outer swing door stay rod in the installation cavity 30, and by setting the first operation hole 2111, the first operation hole 2111 can provide an operation space for the operator to install the front outer swing door stay rod, so that the operator can install the front outer swing door stay rod on the first installation part 31.

[0047] In some embodiments of the application, as shown in Figure 4 The installation cavity 30 is provided with a second installation part 32 for installing a rear outer swing door stay rod, and the third section 23 is formed with a second operation hole 2311 penetrating through the third section 23 in the thickness direction, the second operation hole 2311 is communicated with the installation cavity 30, and the second operation hole 2311 is opposite to the second installation part 32 in the depth direction of the second operation hole 2311.

[0048] When the rear out-swing door stay rod is installed, the rear out-swing door stay rod is extended between the second section 22 and the roof side beam 10, and then the operator installs the rear out-swing door stay rod on the second mounting portion 32 through the second operation hole 2311. The second mounting portion 32 provides a mounting point for the rear out-swing door stay rod, thereby achieving the installation of the rear out-swing door stay rod in the mounting cavity 30. The second operation hole 2311 provides an operation space for the operator to install the rear out-swing door stay rod, so that the operator can install the rear out-swing door stay rod on the second mounting portion 32.
