Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle windows, and in particular to a sliding window and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Currently, sliding windows on the market are primarily used on rear windshields and side windows. These windows are categorized by drive type, which includes manual and automatic (usually motor-driven). Manual drive is unsuitable for today's demand for intelligent vehicles, while automatic drive requires the vehicle to provide power to the drive unit. If the vehicle loses power in an unexpected situation, occupants may be unable to escape quickly, posing a safety hazard.

[0003] The flush manually driven sliding window can adopt the following structure, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an upper guide rail 200 and a lower guide rail 300 are arranged on the fixed panel 100 (which can be bonded by an adhesive 400), and a plurality of shift grooves 900 are arranged on the upper guide rail 200 and the lower guide rail 300 at intervals along their respective extension directions. A sliding frame 500 is provided between the upper guide rail 200 and the lower guide rail 300, and a movable panel 600 is provided in the middle of the frame 500. Two upper and lower driving handles 700 are provided on a vertical side of the frame 500, and a reset spring 800 structure is provided between the driving handle 700 and the frame 500. When the above structure is in use, if the movable panel 600 needs to be opened, the user needs to pull the driving handle 700, and the return spring 800 is compressed synchronously to unlock the movable panel 600, and then the movable panel 600 is opened again; when the opened movable panel 600 needs to be positioned, the driving handle 700 is released, and under the elastic force of the return spring 800, the end of the driving handle 700 slides into the gear slot 900 at the corresponding position to achieve the positioning of the movable panel 600.

[0004] The split-level manually driven sliding window can adopt the following structure, such as Figure 4 As shown, an upper guide rail 200 and a lower guide rail 300 are arranged on the fixed panel 100 (which can be bonded by an adhesive 400), a sliding frame 500 is provided between the upper guide rail 200 and the lower guide rail 300, the middle part of the frame 500 is a movable panel 600, and a locking structure 910 is provided between the movable panel 600 and the fixed panel 100. When the locking structure 910 is opened, the user can manually push and pull the movable panel 600 to move along the upper guide rail 200 and the lower guide rail 300.

[0005] The split-level electric-driven sliding window can adopt the following structures, such as Figure 5As shown, an upper guide rail 200 and a lower guide rail 300 are arranged on the fixed panel 100 (which can be bonded by an adhesive 400), and a sliding movable panel 600 is provided between the upper guide rail 200 and the lower guide rail 300. An automatic cable 920 is provided on the inner side of the lower guide rail 300 and along its extension direction. The automatic cable 920 is connected to the movable panel 600 and the motor 930 respectively. By controlling the direction of the motor 930, the automatic cable 920 can be driven to move forward or reverse, thereby driving the movable panel 600 to move along the upper guide rail 200 and the lower guide rail 300, thereby realizing the opening or closing action of the movable panel 600.

[0006] However, the above-mentioned sliding window structure can only adopt a single driving mode (i.e., manual or automatic, and it is impossible to achieve compatibility between the two); in addition, when adopting the automatic driving mode, anti-pinch control is also required through the on-board computer (ECU) to avoid dangerous situations such as pinching the user when the movable panel moves. However, the existing sliding window structure still cannot achieve the purpose of anti-pinch using a purely mechanical mechanism.

[0007] Therefore, the inventors, relying on their many years of experience and practice in related industries, propose a sliding window and a vehicle to overcome the defects of the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0086] Please refer to the comprehensive Figures 6 to 17 In the embodiment of the present application, a sliding window is provided, which includes: a fixed panel 1, the fixed panel 1 having an opening (i.e., the window of the sliding window); two parallel guide rails 3, the two guide rails 3 are arranged on the plate surface of the fixed panel 1, and the two guide rails 3 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the opening, and the guide rails 3 are respectively provided with a manual drive groove 701 and an automatic drive groove 702 along their extension direction; a drive handle 6, at least a part of the drive handle 6 can be slidably arranged in the manual drive groove 701; an automatic drive member 5, the automatic drive groove 702 A guide bracket 8 is slidably provided inside, and the guide bracket 8 has at least one clutch groove 801. The automatic driving member 5 is connected to the guide bracket 8 to drive the guide bracket 8 to slide in the automatic driving groove 702; the movable panel 2 is located between the two guide rails 3, and at least one guide rail 3 is connected to the movable panel 2 through a driving handle 6; a movable positioning member 9 is provided on the driving handle 6, and the positioning member 9 can move between a first position and a second position. When the positioning member 9 is in the first position, the positioning member 9 is embedded in the clutch groove 801 (as shown in FIG. Figure 13As shown, the first position is the position when the positioning member 9 is embedded in the clutch groove 801), and the automatic driving member 5 can drive the guide bracket 8, the positioning member 9 and the driving handle 6 to move synchronously to drive the movable panel 2 to move; when the positioning member 9 is in the second position, the positioning member 9 is disengaged from the clutch groove 801 (as shown Figure 14 As shown, the second position is the position when the positioning member 9 moves out of the clutch slot 801 ), and the movable panel 2 is driven to move by the driving handle 6 .

[0087] The present invention arranges two guide rails 3 on the upper and lower sides of the opening on the fixed panel 1, and a manual drive groove 701 and an automatic drive groove 702 are respectively provided on the guide rails 3 along their extension direction. The movable panel 2 is located between the two guide rails 3, and the movable panel 2 is connected to the guide rails 3 by a driving handle 6. At least part of the driving handle 6 can be slidably arranged in the manual drive groove 701, and a guide bracket 8 can be slidably arranged in the automatic drive groove 702. The guide bracket 8 has at least one clutch groove 801, and the automatic driving member 5 is connected to the guide bracket 8; a positioning member 9 is provided on the driving handle 6. When the positioning member 9 is located in the first When the movable panel 2 is in the first position, the positioning member 9 is embedded in the clutch groove 801, and the automatic driving member 5 (the automatic driving member 5 can be driven by an electric driving device) can drive the guide bracket 8, the positioning member 9 and the driving handle 6 to move synchronously to realize the automatic driving of the movable panel 2; when the positioning member 9 is in the second position, the positioning member 9 is disengaged from the clutch groove 801, and the driving handle 6 is used to drive the movable panel 2 to move (the driving handle 6 can be manually pushed by the user) to realize the manual driving of the movable panel 2. As described above, the present invention can realize the combination of manual driving and automatic driving of the sliding window, and is compatible with manual and automatic opening methods, effectively improving the user experience. In addition, in the case of failure of automatic driving, the positioning member 9 can be disengaged from the clutch groove 801 by pushing the driving handle 6, so as to realize the separation of the movable panel 2 and the guide bracket 8. Even if the automatic driving member 5 continues to drive the guide bracket 8 to move, the movable panel 2 will be in a stopped state, thereby realizing the anti-pinch function of the purely mechanical structure and improving the safety performance of the sliding window.

[0088] In the present invention, the fixed panel 1 can be made of different materials depending on the application scenario. For example, the fixed panel 1 can be made of glass or plastic, or other materials that are at least partially translucent (transparent material, translucent material, colored material, etc.), and this application does not make any specific restrictions here. When the main body of the fixed panel 1 is made of glass, it can be single-layer glass, laminated glass, or other glass structures, and this application does not make any specific restrictions here.

[0089] An opening is provided in the middle of the fixed panel 1. This opening is the window of the sliding window, which can be used as a ventilation hole. For example, when the sliding window is used in a vehicle, the opening can be used to introduce outside air into the vehicle. Specifically, the number of openings can vary depending on the size of the fixed panel 1 and the specific ventilation requirements of the vehicle in which it is used, and this application does not limit this to a single opening. In the embodiments of this application, the example of providing a single opening is mainly used for illustration. The shape of the opening can be rectangular as a whole. Of course, the shape of the opening is not limited to the above example, and it can also be other shapes, such as trapezoidal, circular, etc. Currently, commonly used sliding windows include three-piece sliding windows and two-piece sliding windows. Accordingly, the fixed panel 1 can be composed of two pieces of glass, with a ventilation window space left in the middle of the two pieces of glass; or it can be a single piece of glass with an opening. The specific structure of the fixed panel 1 is not limited here.

[0090] The movable panel 2 can be made of different materials depending on the application scenario. For example, the main body of the movable panel 2 can be made of glass, plastic, or other materials that are at least partially translucent (transparent, translucent, colored, etc.), and this application does not make any specific restrictions here. When the main body of the movable panel 2 is made of glass, it can be single-layer glass, laminated glass, or other glass structures, and this application does not make any specific restrictions here.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present application, the movable panel 2 is mainly relative to the fixed panel 1 in the horizontal direction (along the Figure 6 Of course, the present application does not exclude that in some special cases, the movable panel 2 is vertically (along the left and right directions in the figure) relative to the fixed panel 1. Figure 6 In the case of movement in the up and down directions), or movement in a specific direction, other scenarios can be adaptively adjusted with reference to this application, and this application will not describe them one by one here.

[0092] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figures 8 to 17 As shown, a long strip driving groove 301 is provided on the guide rail 3 along its extending direction, and a driving track 7 is provided in the driving groove 301 along its extending direction; a long strip first notch 703 is provided on the driving track 7 along its extending direction, and the manual driving groove 701 and the automatic driving groove 702 (in the form of a plurality of slots) are formed in sequence from the first notch 703 to the inner side of the driving track 7. Figure 11For example, the manual drive slot 701 and the automatic drive slot 702 are arranged vertically. The manual drive slot 701 is parallel to the automatic drive slot 702 and is connected to the automatic drive slot 702 via a long second slot 704. A drive block 601 is formed on the drive handle 6. The drive block 601 is connected to the main body of the drive handle 6. The main body of the drive handle 6 is located outside the drive rail 7 to facilitate the push-pull operation of the drive handle 6. The drive block 601 is slidably embedded in the manual drive slot 701 through the first slot 703. The positioning member 9 is movably arranged between the drive block 601 and the guide bracket 8. The widths of the first slot 703 and the second slot 704 are both smaller than the widths of the manual drive slot 701 and the automatic drive slot 702.

[0093] In the present invention, for the upper guide rail 3, the first notch 703 can be provided on the side or bottom surface of the drive rail 7; for the lower guide rail 3, the first notch 703 can be provided on the side or top surface of the drive rail 7. The driving block 601 of the driving handle 6 is slidably embedded in the manual driving groove 701 via the first notch 703, and the driving handle 6 is located outside the manual driving groove 701 and away from the side of the movable panel 2.

[0094] In this embodiment, if Figure 8 、 Figure 11As shown, the positioning member 9 includes a ball; a mounting groove 6011 is provided on the driving block 601 and on the side facing the guide bracket 8, and an elastic member 10 is provided in the mounting groove 6011. The ball is located at the notch of the mounting groove 6011 and at least part of the ball is located in the mounting groove 6011. The elastic member 10 is pressed between the inner wall of the mounting groove 6011 and the ball. Since the diameter of the ball is smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting groove 6011, when the ball is under pressure, the ball can move toward the inner side of the mounting groove 6011 and compress the elastic member 10. When the movable panel 2 is in the automatic driving state, the ball is located at the position of the mounting groove 6011. The ball is subjected to the elastic force of the elastic member 10, which enables a part of the ball to be located in the mounting groove 6011, and the other part of the ball is squeezed and embedded in the clutch groove 801. Through the cooperation between the ball and the clutch groove 801, the driving handle 6 is connected to the guide bracket 8 along the extension direction of the guide rail 3, so that the guide bracket 8 can be electrically driven under the drive of the automatic driving member 5, thereby achieving the purpose of automatically driving the movable panel 2; when the movable panel 2 is in the manual driving state, the ball moves toward the inner side of the mounting groove 6011 and squeezes the elastic member 10 to be compressed until the ball is disengaged from the clutch groove 801, and the driving handle 6 is no longer connected to the guide bracket 8. Therefore, even if the guide bracket 8 is still in a moving state under the drive of the automatic driving member 5, the driving handle 6 will not move (that is, the movable panel 2 will not be driven). At this time, the user can drive the movable panel 2 to move by manually pushing the driving handle 6, thereby achieving the purpose of manually driving the movable panel 2. The purpose of preventing the movable panel 2 from being pinched can also be achieved by switching from automatic drive to manual drive. As for when automatic drive switches to manual drive, it depends on the thrust of the driving handle 6 applied to the ball in the clutch groove 801 when the driving handle 6 and the guide bracket 8 move relative to each other. When the driving handle 6 applies a sufficiently large thrust to the ball, the ball is able to roll out of the clutch groove 801 with an arc-shaped cross-section (the ball squeezes the elastic member 10 and is compressed while rolling out of the clutch groove 801, and the ball is separated from the clutch groove 801). Among them, the elastic force of the elastic member 10 can be adjusted to adjust the amount of thrust that the ball needs to apply to the driving handle 6 to squeeze the elastic member 10, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the anti-pinch force value.

[0095] In the present invention, the elastic member 10 may be, but is not limited to, a spring pressed between the inner wall of the mounting groove 6011 and the ball bearing, with both ends of the spring respectively abutting against the inner wall of the mounting groove 6011 and the ball bearing.

[0096] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figures 6 to 16As shown, a frame 4 is provided on the edge of the movable panel 2, and the frame 4 is arranged around the peripheral side of the movable panel 2. The driving handle 6 is connected to the frame 4, so that in the automatic driving state, the automatic driving member 5 and the driving handle 6 can cooperate to drive the frame 4 and the movable panel 2 to move synchronously along the guide rail 3; and in the manual driving state, the driving handle 6 can drive the frame 4 and the movable panel 2 to move synchronously along the guide rail 3, thereby achieving the purpose of compatibility between the automatic driving and manual driving modes of the sliding window.

[0097] Further, such as Figure 9 As shown, a connection groove 401 is provided on the frame 4 near the driving handle 6. A driving connector 11 is provided on the driving handle 6, and the driving connector 11 is connected to the connection groove 401. The driving connector 11 includes a pin, and its actual connection structure is as follows: one end of the pin is connected to the driving handle 6, and the other end of the pin is inserted into the connection groove 401 to achieve the connection between the frame 4 and the driving handle 6. It should be noted that to ensure a stable connection between the frame 4 and the driving handle 6, multiple pins can be used to connect the frame 4 and the driving handle 6. Of course, other connectors or connection methods can also be used as long as they can achieve a stable connection between the frame 4 and the driving handle 6.

[0098] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown, a connecting portion 402 is provided on the side of the frame 4 facing the fixed panel 1, and a sealing strip 15 is provided on the connecting portion 402. The sealing strip 15 is in sealing contact with the surface of the fixed panel 1 to achieve a sealing effect between the frame 4, the fixed panel 1 and the guide rail 3. The connecting portion 402 can be a long strip-shaped groove extending outward from the main body of the frame 4. The sealing strip 15 has a long strip-shaped protrusion that is inserted into the groove with an interference fit, so that the sealing strip 15 can be detachably provided on the frame 4.

[0099] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown, the edge of the movable panel 2 is provided with a rim 13, and a first adhesive portion 14 is provided on the side of the frame 4 facing the movable panel 2. The first adhesive portion 14 bonds the rim 13 to the frame 4, and the frame 4 is bonded to the rim 13 of the movable panel 2 via the first adhesive portion 14.

Of course, the present invention does not limit the specific connection method between the frame 4 and the rim 13.

[0100] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figures 8 to 10 、 Figure 15 、 Figure 16As shown, at least one motion track groove 302 is provided on the guide rail 3 along its extension direction, and a movable guide column 12 is provided between the frame 4 and the guide rail 3. One end of the movable guide column 12 is connected to the frame 4, and one end of the movable guide column 12 can be movably inserted into the motion track groove 302. The movable guide column 12 can move along the extension direction of the motion track groove 302 to limit the motion track of the movable panel 2.

[0101] Further, such as Figure 10 、 Figure 15 As shown, a protective sleeve 17 is provided on the movable guide column 12 and located in the motion track groove 302. When the movable guide column 12 moves along the motion track groove 302, the protective sleeve 17 contacts the inner wall of the motion track groove 302, thereby helping to improve the service life of the movable guide column 12 and preventing the movable guide column 12 from excessive wear due to long-term movement in the motion track groove 302.

[0102] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the motion track groove 302 can be a long straight line groove (not shown), and the movable panel 2 moves along a straight line during the movement process, making it suitable for flush sliding windows (that is, the movable panel 2 in the flush sliding window only moves along a straight line during the movement process).

[0103] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 15 As shown, the motion track groove 302 can be a long, curved groove with at least one bend. Specifically, the motion track groove 302 includes a transition section for creating a flushness between the movable panel 2 and the fixed panel 1, and a horizontal section for sliding the movable panel 2 relative to the fixed panel 1. The transition section has a first end connected to the horizontal section and a second end distal from the first end. The distance from the first end to the fixed panel 1 is greater than the distance from the first end to the fixed panel 1.

[0104] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown, the guide rail 3 is provided with a second adhesive portion 16, which adheres the guide rail 3 to the surface of the fixed panel 1. The second adhesive portion 16 may be, but is not limited to, an adhesive formed between the guide rail 3 and the surface of the fixed panel 1. In other embodiments, the guide rail 3 may be integrally formed with the fixed panel 1, i.e., the guide rail 3 may be directly integrated and injection-molded onto the surface of the fixed panel 1.

[0105] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 、 Figure 7As shown, the driving handle 6 is provided with an indicator portion 602 at a position exposed outside the guide rail 3. The indicator portion 602 is used to indicate the movable direction of the driving handle 6. The movable direction of the driving handle 6 is the movable direction of the movable panel 2. The movable direction of the movable panel 2 can be directly known through the indicator portion 602. The indicator portion 602 can be, but is not limited to, an indicator arrow.

[0106] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the automatic drive member 5 may be a cable connected to the driving end of an electric drive device. The electric drive device can drive the cable to move, thereby achieving automatic actuation of the sliding window. The cable can also be driven by a rack and pinion drive, a screw drive, a gas rod drive, a flexible shaft drive, or other drive methods, as long as the electric drive device can automatically drive the guide bracket 8. The specific structure and implementation of the automatic drive are not limited herein.

[0107] The working principle of the sliding window of the present invention is:

[0108] In the initial state, the automatic drive mode can be selected, that is, the ball is embedded in the clutch groove 801, so that the driving handle 6 can be connected to the guide bracket 8, and the synchronous movement of the guide bracket 8 and the driving handle 6 is realized. At this time, when the electric drive device drives the cable to move, the cable will drive the guide bracket 8 to move along its extension direction in the automatic drive groove 702, and the driving handle 6 is driven to move synchronously through the guide bracket 8. Since the driving handle 6 is connected to the frame 4 through the pin, it can drive the frame 4 and the movable panel 2 (that is, the entire movable window composed of the frame 4 and the movable panel 2) to move along the guide rail 3, thereby realizing the automatic driving mode of the sliding window; when the movable window (that is, : When the frame 4 and the movable panel 2) are obstructed in the moving trajectory and the force value reaches the anti-pinch force value, the ball begins to compress the elastic part 10 until the ball rolls out of the clutch groove 801, and the ball is disengaged from the clutch groove 801. The disengagement of the ball from the clutch groove 801 causes the guide bracket 8 and the driving handle 6 to lose the connection relationship. Therefore, in this state, even if the guide bracket 8 is still in motion, the driving handle 6 will not move with the guide bracket 8, and the driving handle 6 and the frame 4 and movable panel 2 connected thereto (that is, the entire movable window composed of the frame 4 and the movable panel 2) will return to a stopped state, thereby realizing the anti-pinch function of the sliding window.

[0109] The above process is the switching process of the movable window from automatic drive to manual drive. When encountering an emergency (such as a power outage of the entire vehicle), the ball bearing can be disengaged from the clutch slot 801 by pushing the drive handle 6 alone, thereby realizing independent movement of the movable window, which can be used for escape in an emergency and provide protection for the user's personal safety.

[0110] In the process of driving the movable panel 2 of the present invention, the driving force for the movement of the movable panel 2 can be provided by the cable or driving handle 6 on any one of the upper and lower guide rails 3. Of course, the driving force for the movement of the movable panel 2 can also be provided by the cables or driving handles 6 on the two guide rails 3 at the same time to achieve the purpose of synchronous driving, so that the movement of the movable panel 2 has better stability.

[0111] The characteristics and advantages of the sliding window of this invention are:

[0112] 1. The sliding window can realize the combination of manual drive and automatic drive of the sliding window, and is compatible with manual and automatic opening methods, effectively improving the user experience.

[0113] Second, when the automatic drive of the sliding window fails, the positioning member 9 is disengaged from the clutch slot 801 by pushing the driving handle 6. Even if the automatic driving member 5 continues to drive the guide bracket 8 to move, the movable panel 2 will be in a stopped state, thereby realizing a purely mechanical anti-pinch function, improving the safety performance of the sliding window, and allowing the sliding window of the present invention to be used as an escape window.
