[0052] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0053] Implementation Method 1

[0054] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle luggage rack, which includes at least a body 1, a jet structure 2 and a water supply structure 3. The body 1 has an installation cavity 11; the jet structure 2 is disposed on the body 1; the water supply structure 3 includes a water tank 31 and a conveying device 32. The water tank 31 is disposed in the installation cavity 11 and connected to a water supply pipe 4, and the conveying device 32 connects the jet structure 2 and the water tank 31.

[0055] Overall, when in use, the vehicle luggage rack is installed on the roof panel 9 of the vehicle, and the rack body 1 serves to secure the luggage. Furthermore, the body 1 also features a jet structure 2 and a water supply structure 3. The water supply structure 3, in conjunction with a delivery device 32 and a water tank 31, supplies water to the jet structure 2, which then sprays the water out, thus cooling or removing snow from the vehicle. By placing the jet structure 2 on the inner wall 12 of the body 1, the water sprayed by the jet structure 2 can cover a larger area of ​​the roof, resulting in better performance.

[0056] When the weather is hot, the water supply structure 3 supplies water to the jet structure 2, which can spray water onto the roof of the car for evaporative cooling, thereby reducing the temperature of the roof and the interior of the car and improving the driving experience for users in hot weather.

[0057] In cold weather, especially when there is snow on the vehicle, water is supplied to the jet structure 2 through the water supply structure 3, which sprays water onto the roof of the vehicle for snow removal, eliminating the hazard of snow accumulation on the vehicle and improving the driving safety of the vehicle.

[0058] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the body 1 has an inner sidewall 12 and an outer sidewall 13 disposed opposite to each other, and the jet structure 2 is disposed on the inner sidewall 12. Furthermore, the body 1 also has a bottom wall 14 and a top wall 15, and the inner sidewall 12, the outer sidewall 13, the bottom wall 14 and the top wall 15 surround to form the mounting cavity 11.

[0059] Furthermore, any two adjacent members of the inner wall 12, outer wall 13, bottom wall 14, and top wall 15 can be integrally formed to increase the structural strength of the body 1. Designers can adjust the specific structure of the body 1 according to usage needs, without specific restrictions.

[0060] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, the jet structure 2 includes at least one nozzle 21, which is embedded in the inner sidewall 12 and is connected to the conveying device 32.

[0061] In one specific embodiment, a connecting through hole is provided on the inner sidewall 12, and the nozzle 21 is embedded in the connecting through hole. Designers can adjust the spray direction of the nozzle 21 according to usage needs to better cover the vehicle roof, and no specific limitations are made here.

[0062] Furthermore, by increasing the number of nozzles 21, water can be sprayed onto the vehicle roof more effectively, reducing blind spots and resulting in better performance. Designers can adjust the number and arrangement of nozzles 21 according to usage needs; no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0063] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the conveying device 32 includes a water pump 321, which is disposed in the mounting cavity 11 and connected to the body 1.

[0064] In one specific embodiment, the water pump 321 is fixed in the mounting cavity 11 by positioning screws. By fixing the water pump 321, noise generated during operation due to collision with the main body is avoided. The water pump 321, nozzle 21, and water tank 31 are connected by pipelines. When multiple nozzles 21 are provided, the water pump 321 can connect to each nozzle 21 via branch pipes to supply water.

[0065] Furthermore, to facilitate control of the water pump 321's operating status, a controller can be installed on the vehicle. This controller is electrically connected to the water pump 321 via a control circuit, allowing operators to easily control its operation. Preferably, the controller is a CPU control unit located within the vehicle. Designers can adjust the specific model of the water pump 321 according to usage requirements; no specific limitations are imposed here.

[0066] When air enters the water tank 31, the water cannot fully fill the tank, making it prone to collisions and noise. This noise is particularly noticeable when the vehicle is in motion, as it significantly impacts the driving and passenger experience.

[0067] To address the aforementioned problems, in embodiments of the present invention, such as... Figure 7 In the embodiment shown, the vehicle roof rack also includes a slider 311 disposed in the water tank 31. The slider 311 is slidably disposed in the water tank 31 and divides the water tank 31 into a water storage chamber 312 and an empty chamber 313. The water storage chamber 312 is connected to the water supply pipe 4 and the conveying device 32.

[0068] By placing the slider 311 in the water tank 31, the water tank 31 can be divided into a water storage chamber 312 and an empty chamber 313. When the water pump 321 draws water from the water storage chamber 312, the slider 311 can automatically slide under air pressure to reduce the volume of the water storage chamber 312 and prevent gas from entering the water storage chamber 312, thus solving the problem of noise caused by the collision between the water and the water tank 31.

[0069] In one specific embodiment, the slider 311 is configured as a plate-like structure and is slidably placed in the water tank 31. Preferably, a sealing ring is provided on the slider 311 to achieve a better sealing effect with the inner wall of the water tank 31.

[0070] Of course, designers can adjust the specific structure of slider 311 according to usage needs, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0071] In one feasible embodiment of the present invention, the water tank 31 is provided with an outlet that communicates with the water storage cavity 312, the slider 311 is provided with an inlet that communicates with the water storage cavity 312, the outlet is connected to the conveying device 32, and the inlet is connected to the water supply pipe 4.

[0072] In another feasible embodiment of the present invention, the water tank 31 is provided with an inlet that communicates with the water storage cavity 312, the slider 311 is provided with an outlet that communicates with the water storage cavity 312, the outlet is communicated with the conveying device 32, and the inlet is communicated with the water supply pipe 4.

[0073] Furthermore, the vehicle roof rack also includes an elastic element 314, which is disposed in the water storage cavity 312 or the empty cavity 313. The elastic element 314 is connected to the slider 311, and the elastic element 314 can drive the slider 311 to slide in the water tank 31 to keep the water storage cavity 312 full.

[0074] The elastic element 314 can apply a certain pressure to the slider 311, so that the slider 311 can better compress the water in the water storage cavity 312, thereby keeping the water storage cavity 312 full and eliminating the noise generated by the collision of water.

[0075] In one specific embodiment, the elastic element 314 is a spring, which is disposed in the water storage cavity 312. One end of the spring is connected to the water tank 31, and the other end of the spring is connected to the slider 311. The spring can pull the slider 311, so that the slider 311 can maintain a compressed state on the water, thereby keeping the water in the water storage cavity 312 always full.

[0076] In another specific embodiment, a spring is disposed in the empty cavity 313. The spring can push the slider 311, so that the slider 311 can maintain a compressed state on the water, thereby keeping the water in the water storage cavity 312 always full.

[0077] Of course, in other specific embodiments, designers may adjust the specific structure of the elastic element 314 according to the needs of use, such as setting the elastic element 314 as a rubber element, etc., without making specific restrictions here.

[0078] During vehicle operation, especially when the vehicle accelerates or decelerates rapidly, a large inertial force is generated on the water tank 31, which makes the water tank 31 prone to shifting within the mounting cavity 11, and thus collide with the main body and generate noise.

[0079] To address the aforementioned problems, in embodiments of the present invention, such as... Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the main body 1 also includes a support structure 5 disposed in the mounting cavity 11, and the water tank 31 is fixed in the mounting cavity 11 by the support structure 5. By providing the support structure 5 in the mounting cavity 11, the water tank 31 can be better fixed, avoiding the problem of the water tank 31 moving around in the mounting cavity 11.

[0080] Preferably, the water tank 31 extends along the length of the body 1 and is connected to the bottom of the body 1. The water tank 31 is fixedly connected to the body 1 by multiple positioning screws. Furthermore, by extending the water tank 31 along the length of the body 1, its volume is increased, which is beneficial for storing more water. In addition, the water tank 31 also provides some support to the body 1, improving the load-bearing capacity of the body 1.

[0081] In one specific embodiment, the support structure 5 includes at least one support portion 51 protruding into the mounting cavity 11, the support portion 51 abutting against the water tank 31. By utilizing the support portion 51, the water tank 31 can be fixed, thereby improving the installation stability of the water tank 31.

[0082] Furthermore, the support portion 51 is integrally formed with the main body 1. By making the support portion 51 integral with the main body 1, the connection strength between the support portion 51 and the main body 1 is increased, allowing the support portion 51 to better secure the water tank 31.

[0083] Preferably, the support portion 51 is provided in multiple ways, at least one support portion 51 abuts against the top of the water tank 31, and at least one support portion 51 abuts against the side wall of the water tank 31.

[0084] By using multiple support parts 51 to support and fix the water tank 31 at different positions, the installation stability of the water tank 31 is improved, and the problem of the water tank 31 moving around in the installation cavity 11 is avoided.

[0085] Designers can adjust the number and arrangement of the support parts 51 according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0086] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the vehicle roof rack also includes a friction structure 6, which is disposed at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11 and extends along the length of the mounting cavity 11, with the water tank 31 placed on the friction structure 6.

[0087] By setting a friction structure 6 at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11, the friction structure 6 can increase the friction between the water tank 31 and the body 1, further preventing the water tank 31 from moving around in the mounting cavity 11.

[0088] In one specific embodiment, the friction structure 6 includes a corrugated rib 61 protruding in the mounting cavity 11, and the corrugated rib 61 is integrally formed with the bottom of the body 1.

[0089] Of course, designers can adjust the specific structure of friction structure 6 according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0090] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the main body 1 is also provided with at least one hollow area 7, which connects the inner sidewall 12 of the main body 1 with the mounting cavity 11; the vehicle luggage rack also includes at least one projection module 8, which is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the hollow area 7, and the projection module 8 is disposed in the mounting cavity 11 and connected to the hollow area 7.

[0091] To enhance the projection effect of the projection module 8 and serve as an identifier, the cutout area 7 can be set to the desired logo shape. Designers can adjust the specific shape of the cutout area 7 according to their needs; no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0092] By cooperating with the projection module 8 and the hollow area 7, the light source generated by the projection module 8 can be projected out through the hollow area 7. When the nozzle 21 is also in the spraying state, the light source of the projection module 8 can be projected onto the spray generated by the nozzle 21, thereby achieving a better marking effect.

[0093] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the projection module 8 includes a fixed base 81 and an optical element 82. A fixed bracket 16 is provided in the mounting cavity 11. The fixed base 81 is engaged with the fixed bracket 16. The optical element 82 is disposed on the fixed base 81 and placed in the corresponding hollow area 7.

[0094] Specifically, the fixing bracket 16 can be set on the inner side wall 12 of the main body 1, and the fixing bracket 16 and the fixing base 81 are snapped together by a snap-fit ​​structure. By snapping the fixing base 81 onto the fixing bracket 16 in the mounting cavity 11, the installation efficiency of the projection module 8 is increased.

[0095] Designers can adjust the specific structure of the optical element 82 according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are imposed here. Preferably, the optical element 82 is a light guide, which is set on the fixed base 81 and embedded in the hollow area 7.

[0096] Furthermore, the optical element 82 can be electrically connected to a power source via a circuit. Preferably, both the optical element 82 and the water pump 321 are powered by the vehicle's power supply. Of course, designers may also use other power sources to power the optical element 82; no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0097] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the hollow area 7 is provided with a first sealing layer 71, which is formed by a light-transmitting material. The first sealing layer 71 can seal the hollow area 7, improve the sealing performance, and prevent impurities from entering the mounting cavity 11 from the hollow area 7.

[0098] Furthermore, the first sealing layer 71 is formed by using a light-transmitting material, allowing light to pass through without blocking the light from the light guide. Preferably, the light-transmitting material is UV adhesive. After the light guide is installed in the hollow area 7, UV adhesive is filled into the hollow area 7 to form the first sealing layer 71.

[0099] Of course, in other embodiments, the designer may adjust the specific composition of the first sealing layer 71 according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0101] An embodiment of the present invention also provides a vehicle including at least one of the aforementioned roof racks, which are mounted on the vehicle's roof sheet 9. The specific structure, working principle, and beneficial effects of this roof rack are the same as described in Embodiment 1, and will not be repeated here. By using this roof rack, the vehicle can perform cooling or snow removal operations on the roof, improving the user experience.

[0102] In one specific embodiment, the vehicle has two roof racks, which are mounted opposite each other on the vehicle's roof panel 9. The two roof racks work together to collaboratively cool or remove snow from the vehicle, resulting in better performance.

[0103] In other embodiments, the vehicle may have only one luggage rack, with the other being a standard luggage rack; no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0104] In embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 In the embodiment shown, a first mounting through hole 91 is provided on the roof sheet 9, and a second mounting through hole 17 is provided on the body 1 of the vehicle roof rack. The first mounting through hole 91 and the second mounting through hole 17 are arranged opposite to each other, and the water supply pipe 4 of the vehicle roof rack passes through the first mounting through hole 91 and the second mounting through hole 17.

[0105] Through the cooperation of the first mounting through hole 91 and the second mounting through hole 17, the water supply pipe 4 can pass through the first mounting through hole 91 and the second mounting through hole 17 to connect the water storage chamber 312 of the water tank 31 and the water supply container installed in the vehicle, respectively.

[0106] Furthermore, to prevent impurities or water from entering the vehicle through the first mounting hole 91, in this embodiment of the invention, the vehicle also includes a second sealing layer 18. The second sealing layer 18 is arranged around the periphery of the first mounting hole 91 and is connected to the body 1 of the vehicle's roof rack. The second sealing layer 18 can provide a sealing effect, thereby preventing impurities or water from entering the vehicle.

[0107] Designers can determine the specific structure and composition of the second sealing layer 18 according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are imposed here.
