The terms used in the present application are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application.

[0032] Embodiment one:

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1The embodiment of the present application shows an A-pillar sealing noise reduction assembly which is assembled at the position of the front door and the A-pillar, and specifically comprises a triangular block sealing strip 1, a side wall sealing strip 2 and an outer water barrier strip 3. The side wall sealing strip 2 is arranged on the outer side wall panel, the outer water barrier strip 3 is located on the door together with the triangular block sealing strip 1, and the side wall sealing strip 2 and the triangular block sealing strip 1 are extruded and matched to be sealed when the door is closed. The triangular block sealing strip 1 comprises a sealing corner connecting part 4 and a sealing straight section part 5, wherein the sealing corner connecting part 4 is provided with a plurality of support ribs, the sealing corner connecting part 4 extends downward in the vertical direction to form the sealing straight section part 5, the sealing straight section part 5 is composed of a guide groove body 17, an inner side lip 19 and an outer side lip 18, the triangular block sealing strip 1 is assembled on the guide rail in a flag shape, the outer water barrier strip 3 is assembled on the door panel stop, and the outer water barrier strip 3 is zero-paste matched with the sealing corner connecting part 4.

[0034] The upper edge of the sealing corner connecting part 4 is abutted and matched with the bubble tube of the side wall sealing strip 2, and is used for filling the local sealing gap of the A-pillar ROOF section. The downward area of the sealing corner connecting part 4 along the side wall sealing strip 2 towards the outside of the vehicle is provided with a sharp-angle triangular protruding area, and three through holes 9 are arranged in the area for the installation of the triangular block. The lower edge of the triangular protruding area is provided with a trapezoidal step surface for the matched installation of the outer water barrier strip 3. The sealing corner connecting part 4 is provided with a first group of support ribs 11 downward along the front end of the outer water barrier strip 3, the first group of support ribs 11 comprises two long and one short trapezoidal prisms, and a meat nail 8 is arranged on the left and right sides of the first group of support ribs 11 respectively for the fixation of the lower edge on the panel. The sealing corner connecting part 4 is provided with a second group of support ribs 12 upward rightwards along the surface of the sealing corner connecting part, and the second group of support ribs 12 comprises four trapezoidal prisms. The back surface of the sealing corner connecting part 14 facing the outside of the vehicle body is provided with a plurality of support ribs, and a third group of support ribs 13 are arranged around the through hole 9 of the tip of the sealing corner connecting part 4, and the third group of support ribs 13 comprises four profile bosses. The third group of support ribs 13 is respectively provided with a fourth group of support ribs 14, a fifth group of support ribs 15 and a sixth group of support ribs 16 from left to right, the fourth group of support ribs comprises two long prisms and two short prisms, and the fifth group of support ribs 15 involves three step-arranged bosses. Two prisms are arranged on the right side of the fifth group of support ribs 15. The plurality of support ribs are distributed in the inner wall of the sealing corner connecting part 4, and the cross section of the sealing straight section part 5 of the sealing corner connecting part 4 in contact with the glass 20 is composed of the guide groove body 17, the inner side lip 19 and the outer side lip 18 interfering with the glass 20.

[0035] It should be noted that the triangular block sealing strip 1 is usually assembled on the door guide rail to replace the guide groove of the framed door A-pillar, and to constrain and support the sliding of the glass 20. Since the triangular window area of the door glass is the most sensitive area of wind noise, especially the triangular window area of the front door glass, if the upper and lower cavities of the door (i.e. the cavity where the door glass is located and the cavity below the door glass) are connected at the triangular window area, the door cavity noise will be transmitted to each other, even strengthened and enlarged, resulting in large door leakage wind noise. In combination with the above Figure 5As shown, the triangular block sealing strip 1 extends to the Z direction and is pressed against the side sealing strip 2 to form a Z-direction seal. The side sealing strip 2 covers the upper edge (referred to as the ROOF section) of the triangular block sealing strip 1. The side sealing strip 2 replaces the guide groove of the ROOF section of the framed door and is combined with the triangular block sealing strip 1 to form a sealing structure. Figure 1 As shown, the glass 20 is inserted into the triangular block sealing strip 1 in the opposite direction of the X direction, slides upward along the Z direction of the sealing straight section 5, and passes through the upper edge of the pressing sealing corner section 4. Generally, the pressing sealing corner section 4 is made of hard dense rubber material as a support on the guide rail. In the example of the present application, a gradually decreasing thickness processing method is used, so that the thickness at the sharp corner position in contact with the glass is only 0.5 mm. The gradually decreasing thickness structure provides strong support to the assembly part on the guide rail, prevents collapse and causes local sealing failure. The pressing sealing corner section 4 at the position in contact with the side sealing strip 2 and the glass 20 is too thin, so that the upper edge of the pressing sealing corner section 4 is more easily deformed with the type when the glass 20 presses the bubble tube of the side sealing strip 2, reducing the gap space at this position and avoiding wind noise from entering at this position.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 6 In particular, the sealing corner section 4 matches the outer weather strip 3 in the opposite direction of the Z axis downward. The outer weather strip 3 is assembled on the edge of the door panel and has a length-appropriate closed-cell sponge 21 on the stepped surface to block the gap between the sealing corner section 4 and the outer weather strip 3, further reducing the leakage of wind noise. In addition, in the direction of the outside of the vehicle, the Z-direction gap between the outer weather strip 3 and the sealing corner section 4 is 0.6 mm, greatly improving the appearance of the product quality in the A-pillar area. In the structure arrangement, the sealing corner section 4 and the outer weather strip 3 are embeddedly assembled, the matching gap of the external parts is reduced, the sealing and sound insulation of the triangular block area of the door glass are improved, the airflow on the outside of the door is prevented from flowing at this position, thereby effectively reducing the leakage of wind noise; and the design of the trapezoidal stepped assembly surface can effectively control the Z-direction assembly height of the outer weather strip 3, and improve the appearance quality of the vehicle.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 2, the corner part of the triangular block sealing strip 1 is the sealing corner part 4, the through hole 9 is the mounting hole of the triangular block, the triangular block is arranged on the triangular area of the sealing corner part 4 as an outer decorative part, the inside of the triangular block is provided with foam as a sound insulation sealing device to fill the gap between the triangular block and the sealing corner part 4. The meat nails 8 are arranged at the lower end of the corner respectively, are assembled to the inner panel of the door, play a fixing role, and are sprayed with water-based polyurethane on the surface to play a lubricating role, facilitate the assembly of the meat nails 8, and the first group of supporting ribs 11 is arranged on the upper side of the meat nails 8, the first group of supporting ribs 11 is composed of three convex platform structures, which presents an arch structure with thin ends and thick middle in the vertical direction, the two ends are about 1mm thick, and the thickest part in the middle is about 2.5mm. The simple structure design can facilitate the processing and forming of the parts, and the arched structure can effectively reduce the contact area with the sheet metal in the X direction, so that the vehicle body can avoid sticking and abnormal noise caused by the shaking of the vehicle body posture during the driving process. At the same time, it provides a reinforcing structure for the lower edge of the sealing corner part 4, and plays a supporting role. According to the cooperation relationship shown in the figure, the first group of supporting ribs 11 can prevent the sealing corner part 4 from collapsing after interfering with the corner part of the side sealing strip 2 in the door closing state, so as to form an unrecoverable pit defect in the appearance. Figure 1

[0038] The second group of supporting ribs 12 is arranged on the right upper side of the first group of supporting ribs 11, and is composed of four trapezoidal prisms. It is arranged in the circular arc transition area of the sealing corner part 4, and is arranged as a toothed reinforcing structure to ensure that there is strong contact with the guide rail. It can help the sealing corner part 4 to support and limit in the Y direction, avoid internal shock at this position due to excessive door closing force during door closing, help to reduce the noise caused by the extrusion contact between the door closing guide rail and the rubber strip, and reduce the shortening of the service life caused by the shaking of the glass.

[0039] Figure 3 The back of the sealing corner part 4 is shown, which is distributed with four groups of supporting ribs, and the third group of supporting ribs 13 is arranged along the Z direction sharp corner area and is composed of four short convex platforms. It extends along the right upper edge of the sealing corner part 4 to the through hole 9 as a reinforcing structure at this position, provides sufficient support, limits the extrusion of the sealing corner part 4 and the side sealing strip 2 in the Z direction, and causes the sealing to be not tight. On the one hand, under the action of air pressure during high-speed driving, local collapse occurs at this position to form a hollow gap, thereby providing a channel for air flow to enter the vehicle at the A-pillar position. On the other hand, when facing the scouring of high-pressure rain, this position can greatly avoid the defect type opening caused by the action of water pressure, so that water flows into the vehicle, causing a series of after-sales problems.

[0040] ​The fourth set of support ribs 14 is arranged at the position where the third set of support ribs 13 extends in the reverse direction of the Z axis, and is arranged on the back of the through hole 9 of the sealing corner 4, serving as an assembly support structure between the guide rail, and is composed of four square-shaped bosses. The advantage of this structure is that it can provide support for the installation of the triangular block on the through hole 9, preventing the formation of a collapsed cavity in this area after assembly, and thus preventing the appearance of the sealing corner 4 from being poor.

[0041] The fifth set of support ribs 15 is arranged at the position where the fourth set of support ribs 14 extends in the reverse direction of the X axis, and is composed of three bosses arranged in a step-like manner along the ROOF segment, with each boss spaced 5 mm apart to enable the sealing strip to maintain good sealing effect and structural stability. The sixth set of support ribs 16 is arranged to the right of the fifth set of support ribs 15, and assists in limiting the assembly of the sealing corner 4 in the Z direction, and provides strong support to the corner area. The boss with a thickness of 6 mm can constrain the Y direction of the sealing corner 4, so that the sealing corner 4 can be completely clamped on the guide rail sheet metal.

[0042] Figure 4 The sealing straight section 5 is used to limit the Y direction of the glass 20, so that the glass 20 only slides in the Z direction. The sealing straight section 5 is composed of a guide groove body 17, an outer lip 18, and an inner lip 19. The guide groove body 17 is U-shaped and is adapted to the shape of the guide rail, and is assembled on the guide rail. The material is usually a hard dense glue that provides a stable fitting state. The outer lip 18 and the inner lip 19 are made of micro-foamed dense glue material to provide clamping force for the glass 20. The contact surfaces of the outer lip 18 and the inner lip 19 with the glass 20 are flocked and coated with a wear-resistant coating. Within the effective range, it can be foreseen that the defects such as glass jamming and abnormal noise can be effectively avoided, and the wear of the glue strip caused by frequent lifting of the glass can be maximized, thereby prolonging the service life of the glue strip. The outer lip 18 is arranged outwardly along the X direction above the guide groove body 17, and the inner lip 19 is arranged in the reverse direction of the Y direction of the outer lip. Taking the Y direction of the glass surface as an example, the left outer lip 18 contacts the outer side of the door and serves as the first sealing function, acting as the first barrier to prevent noise and water and dust. In order to strengthen the sealing of the A-pillar and prevent the "whistling" sound caused by the leakage of wind noise at this position during high-speed driving, the inner lip 19 downwardly added to this structure forms a second sealing barrier with the left outer lip 18, which is shaped like a "herringbone".

[0043] The first sealing of the A-pillar area is realized by the cooperation between the sealing corner 4 and the outer weather strip 3 and the side wall sealing strip 2, which is different from the traditional structure that focuses on the cooperation sealing of the inner side of the door in this area. The matching gap of the outer weather strip 3 is optimized, so that the leakage of wind noise in the A-pillar area can be greatly reduced by the first sealing. Meanwhile, a plurality of supporting ribs are arranged on the inner wall of the sealing corner 4, which can support the sealing corner 4 assembled on the door at high speed wind noise, and can significantly reduce the collapse trend of the sealing body when dealing with high pressure rain impact, so as to prevent water from entering the vehicle interior along the collapsed gap. The inner lip 19 is arranged on the basis of the original outer lip 18 of the sealing straight section 5, and the inner lip 19 is arranged along the outer side of the door glass 20. The inner lip 19 not only resists the leakage of wind noise along the glass 20 into the vehicle, but also avoids the risk of rainwater infiltration due to the failure of the first sealing lip.
