[0037] To facilitate understanding of the vehicle assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application, its application scenario is first described. The vehicle assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to a car. When the weather or road conditions of current cars are bad, the skin under the door is easily soiled, and when the user gets on and off the car, the user's trouser legs are easily soiled, affecting the user's experience. To this end, the embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle assembly to improve the user's riding experience. It is described in detail below in conjunction with specific drawings and embodiments.

[0038] To facilitate understanding of the vehicle assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application, an XZ reference coordinate system is constructed, wherein the X direction is parallel to the width direction of the vehicle, and the Z direction is parallel to the height direction of the vehicle.

[0039] refer to Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1 The reference schematic diagram of the main components of the vehicle assembly provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. The vehicle assembly provided by the embodiment of the present application includes a door opening frame 100, a skin and a flip mechanism 200. Among them, the door opening frame 100 is the main structure of the vehicle assembly, and the door opening 120 is provided on the door opening frame 100. When it is assembled to the vehicle, the door opening 120 provides space for users to get on and off the vehicle, and the door opening frame 100 is connected to the door opening frame 100 to block the door opening 120 through the door. The skin covers the outside of the door opening frame 100 as the outermost component of the vehicle. The skin wraps the entity part of the door opening frame 100 when covering, and exposes the door opening 120 of the door opening frame 100. The flip mechanism 200 is connected to the door opening frame 100 and is located below the door opening 120 (along the Z direction). The flip mechanism 200 is exposed to the skin, and the part exposed to the surface of the skin can be hidden by flipping. The components of the door opening frame 100 are described separately in conjunction with specific embodiments below.

[0040] The door opening frame 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application may be a door opening frame 100 at different positions of the vehicle. For example, the door opening frame 100 may be a door opening frame 100 corresponding to the main driving position, a door opening frame 100 corresponding to the co-pilot position, and / or a door opening frame 100 corresponding to the rear passenger position. Figure 1 The structure of the door opening frame 100 corresponding to the main driving position is exemplified in the figure, but it should be understood that the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the specific structure of the door opening frame 100, and it can also be a door opening frame 100 corresponding to other positions (co-pilot position, rear passenger position). For the convenience of description, in the embodiment of the present application, the door opening frame 100 corresponding to the main driving position is taken as an example for description.

[0041] Continue to refer Figure 1 As shown, the door opening frame 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is a hollow frame structure, the middle of which is a door opening 120, and the outer side is a solid frame structure, and the frame structure surrounds the door opening 120. When connected to the vehicle, the frame structure is fixedly connected to the chassis of the vehicle and other matching structures. When the frame structure of the door opening frame 100 is connected to the vehicle, the side walls of the frame structure participate in forming the A-pillar, B-pillar and other structures of the vehicle. In addition, the door opening frame 100 also includes a support beam 110, and along the height direction (Z direction) of the car, the support beam 110 is located below the door opening 120 of the door opening frame 100, which can also be understood as the support beam 110 being the partial frame structure located at the bottom when the door opening 120 is surrounded.

[0042] exist Figure 1 The structure of the skin is not illustrated in the example, but the skin covering the door opening frame 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can refer to the shape of Figure 1 The physical structure of the middle door opening frame 100 is covered by the skin. When the skin is covered, the door opening 120 of the door opening frame 100 is exposed to ensure the normal installation of the door and the normal getting on and off of the vehicle by the user.

[0043] For reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the partial structure of the door opening frame 100 is shown. The flip mechanism 200 provided in the embodiment of the present application is the main functional component of the vehicle assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application. The flip mechanism 200 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes an interior panel assembly 220 and an exterior panel 210. The interior panel assembly 220 is fixedly connected to the support beam 110, and the exterior panel 210 is rotatably connected to the interior panel assembly 220 and can be flipped relative to the interior panel assembly 220. For example, Figure 2As shown in , the length direction of the interior trim panel assembly 220 and the exterior trim panel 210 is along the length direction of the vehicle (X direction), and the axis around which the exterior trim panel 210 rotates is also parallel to the X direction. In addition, when arranged, the flip mechanism 200 is located below the door opening 120 of the door opening frame 100, and during the flipping process of the exterior trim panel 210, the exterior trim panel 210 will not cover the door opening 120 of the door opening frame 100.

[0044] It should be understood that when the flip mechanism 200 is provided, the flip mechanism 200 is located outside the door opening frame 100, and the outside of the door opening frame 100 refers to the side of the door opening frame 100 that is away from the passenger compartment in the vehicle. When the skin covers the door opening frame 100, the flip mechanism 200 is located between the door opening frame 100 and the skin.

[0045] When the flip mechanism 200 is matched, a window matching the flip mechanism 200 is provided on the skin, and the window is used to expose the flip mechanism 200. In a specific arrangement, the flip mechanism 200 is arranged on the support beam 110 of the door opening frame 100, and when the skin covers the door opening frame 100, the window on the skin corresponds to the flip mechanism 200, so that the flip mechanism 200 is exposed. When observed from the outside of the vehicle, the flip mechanism 200 can be observed through the window on the skin.

[0046] When the flip mechanism 200 is in use, the outer panel 210 can rotate relative to the inner panel assembly 220. During the rotation, the outer panel 210 can be in different positions. For the convenience of description, the outer panel 210 is defined as being in a first setting position and a second setting position. Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 Schematic diagrams of the flip mechanism 200 in different states are shown. Figure 3 As shown, when the exterior panel 210 is located at the first set position, the exterior panel 210 blocks the window on the skin and shields the interior panel assembly 220. In this state, when the user observes from the outside of the vehicle, only the exterior panel 210 can be seen, and the exterior panel 210 blocks the window, while the interior panel assembly 220 is located between the skin and the door opening frame 100, and the user cannot observe the interior panel assembly 220. At this time, when the vehicle encounters a muddy road or is driving in rainy weather, mud or rain can only splash onto the exterior panel 210, while the interior panel assembly 220 can be kept relatively clean because it is shielded by the exterior panel 210. Figure 4As shown, when the outer trim panel 210 is flipped to the second setting position, the outer trim panel 210 is hidden in the skin, and the interior trim panel assembly 220 is exposed at the window on the skin. That is, when the outer trim panel 210 is in the second setting position, the outer trim panel 210 rotates around the rotation axis to be hidden in the skin, and at this time, the interior trim panel assembly 220 is exposed at the window. When the user observes from the outside of the vehicle, the interior trim panel assembly 220 can be directly observed through the window on the skin.

[0047] The different states of the above-mentioned flipping of the outer decorative panel 210 can be changed according to the different states of vehicle use. Specifically, when the vehicle is driving or stopped, the outer decorative panel 210 is in the first setting position, so that the window on the skin is blocked by the outer decorative panel 210, and when the muddy water or rain water splashes on the vehicle, it splashes on the inner decorative panel assembly 220 to keep the cleanliness of the inner decorative panel assembly 220. Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned example states, in other states that do not involve the user getting on and off the vehicle, the outer decorative panel 210 can be located in the first setting position. When the user gets on and off the vehicle, the outer decorative panel 210 rotates from the first setting position to the second setting position, and the inner decorative panel assembly 220 is exposed. Since the shielding of the outer decorative panel 210 can keep the inner decorative panel assembly 220 clean, when the user gets on and off the vehicle, the relatively dirty outer decorative panel 210 is hidden in the skin, and the clean inner decorative panel assembly 220 is exposed, so that when the user gets on and off the vehicle, the user's trouser legs can be avoided from being hidden, thereby improving the user experience.

[0048] The embodiment of the present application further includes a driving mechanism, which is used to drive the outer panel 210 to flip. Exemplarily, the driving mechanism can drive the outer panel 210 to rotate from the first setting position to the second setting position, and can also drive the outer panel 210 to rotate from the second setting position to the first setting position. Exemplarily, the driving mechanism can be a driving motor (such as a stepping motor or a servo motor, etc.), or a driving assembly consisting of a driving motor and a reduction box.

[0049] It can be seen from the above description that the vehicle component provided in the embodiment of the present application sets a flipping mechanism 200 at the door opening 120 position adjacent to the door opening frame 100, and the interior panel assembly 220 cooperates with the exterior panel 210 by flipping, so that the exterior panel 210 can be hidden by flipping after it becomes dirty, and the cleaner interior panel assembly 220 can be exposed, thereby reducing the risk of users' clothes getting dirty when getting in the vehicle and improving the user experience.

[0050] Continue to refer Figure 4In an optional solution, support plates 211 are provided at both ends of the outer trim panel 210, and the support plates 211 are arranged at both ends of the outer trim panel 210 and are rotatably connected to the interior panel assembly 220. Specifically, when the outer trim panel 210 and the interior panel assembly 220 are matched, the outer trim panel 210 covers the interior panel assembly 220, and the support plates 211 at both ends of the outer trim panel 210 are respectively located on the outside of the interior panel assembly 220, and are rotatably connected to the interior panel assembly 220 through a rotating shaft, so that the outer trim panel 210 can rotate relative to the interior panel assembly 220. Among them, the axis of the rotating shaft is colinear with the axis of the interior panel assembly 220. When the above structure is adopted, the outer trim panel 210 is buckled on the outside of the interior panel assembly 220, and the axis around which the outer trim panel 210 rotates is the axis of the interior panel assembly 220 through the support plate 211, so that the outer trim panel 210 can be rotated in a smaller space.

[0051] In addition, both ends of the outer decorative panel 210 are rotatably connected to the interior decorative panel assembly 220 through a rotating shaft, which ensures the stability of the outer decorative panel 210 when rotating. When working with the driving mechanism, the output shaft of the driving mechanism is coaxially fixed with the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the interior decorative panel, and the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the outer decorative panel 210, so as to ensure that when the driving mechanism is working, the outer decorative panel 210 can be driven to rotate.

[0052] In one feasible solution, the driving mechanism is buried in the interior trim panel assembly 220, so that the internal space of the interior trim panel assembly 220 can be used to fix the driving mechanism, which is convenient for the arrangement of the driving mechanism and also convenient for the connection between the driving mechanism and the rotating shaft.

[0053] In an optional solution, the outer trim panel 210 is an arc-shaped trim panel, the inner concave surface of the outer trim panel 210 faces the interior trim panel assembly 220, and the radius corresponding to the outer trim panel 210 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft. When the outer trim panel 210 adopts an arc-shaped structure, it can be rotated in a smaller space. In addition, the gap between the outer trim panel 210 and the edge of the window can be reduced to improve the appearance of the vehicle. Correspondingly, when the outer trim panel 210 is an arc-shaped trim panel, the support plate 211 is a fan-shaped plate that cooperates with the arc-shaped trim panel to stably support the outer trim panel 210.

[0054] For reference Figure 5 In an practicable solution, when the outer trim panel 210 is flipped to the first setting position, the edge of the outer trim panel 210 overlaps with the door corresponding to the door opening frame 100, and the overlapping portion of the outer trim panel 210 is located on the inner side of the door. That is, when the outer trim panel 210 is rotated to the first setting position, the upper edge of the outer trim panel 210 (the upper edge along the Z direction) is hidden to the inner side of the skin and overlaps with the skin to reduce the gap between the outer trim panel 210 and the skin, and improve the coordination between the outer trim panel 210 and the skin when rotating.

[0055] In an optional solution, the size of the exterior panel 210 is larger than the size of the window on the skin along the X direction and the Z direction. Exemplarily, along the X direction, both ends of the exterior panel 210 are hidden in the skin to ensure that when the exterior panel 210 rotates, the edges of the exterior panel 210 and the window on the skin will not interfere. Similarly, along the Z direction, when the exterior panel 210 is at the first set position, the edges of the exterior panel 210 are also hidden in the window on the skin to reduce the gap between the exterior panel 210 and the window on the skin, and improve the coordination effect when the exterior panel 210 and the skin rotate.

[0056] The interior trim assembly 220 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes an interior trim body 221 and a light strip 222. Among them, the interior trim body 221 is the main structure of the interior trim assembly 220. When the exterior trim 210 is rotatably connected to the interior trim assembly 220, the exterior trim 210 is rotatably connected to the interior trim body 221. Exemplarily, the support plates 211 at both ends of the exterior trim 210 are respectively on both sides of the interior trim body 221, and the support plates 211 are rotatably connected to the interior trim body 221 through a rotating shaft. When the driving mechanism is set in the interior trim assembly 220, it is also fixed in the interior trim body 221. It should be understood that the length direction of the interior trim body 221 is along the X direction. The light strip 222 is fixed to the door trim body and is used to facilitate users to get on and off the vehicle when it is lit. During actual use, the lighting strip 222 is arranged on the surface outside the interior panel body 221 (the side of the interior panel body 221 facing away from the vehicle passenger compartment). When the interior panel assembly 220 is exposed, that is, when the exterior panel 210 is rotated to the second set position, the lighting strip 222 is illuminated, thereby providing a bright strip display under the door opening 120, which is convenient for reflecting the position of the door opening 120.

[0057] In the embodiment of the present application, different light sources can be displayed on the light strip 222. For example, the light source can be a point light source or a strip light source. Figure 4 As shown in , the light strip 222 uses point light sources, there are multiple point light sources, and the multiple point light sources are arranged in an array.

[0058] As an optional solution, the vehicle assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes a controller, which as a control device can control the above-mentioned drive mechanism to drive the exterior panel 210 to flip. Exemplarily, when the exterior panel 210 needs to flip, the controller can control the exterior panel 210 to flip from the first set position to the second set position, or from the second set position to the first set position. In addition, the controller can also be used to control the light strip 222, such as lighting the light strip 222 when the exterior panel 210 flips to the second set position. That is, when the exterior panel 210 flips to the second set position, the controller controls the light strip 222 to light up synchronously, so that when the interior panel assembly 220 is exposed, the light strip 222 can indicate the position of the door opening 120. Of course, the controller can also be used to control the light strip 222 to turn off when the exterior panel 210 rotates to the first set position.

[0059] Continue to refer Figure 4 , the interior trim assembly 220 provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes a speaker 223, which is used to provide a prompt sound. Specifically, the speaker 223 is fixed on the interior trim body 221, such as the speaker 223 and the light strip 222 are fixed on the same surface of the interior trim body 221. When the speaker 223 is in use, it can also be controlled by the controller. At this time, the controller is also used to control the speaker 223 to emit a prompt sound when the exterior trim 210 is flipped to the second set position. That is, when the interior trim assembly 220 is exposed, the controller can control the speaker 223 to emit a prompt sound. For example, when a passenger gets off the car and opens the door, the exterior trim 210 flips to the second set position, and the speaker 223 emits a prompt sound to remind pedestrians around that the door is open. Thereby improving the safety of users when getting off the car.

[0060] When the controller realizes automatic control, the state of the user getting on or off the vehicle can be determined according to different information of the vehicle, and the flipping of the outer trim panel 210 can be controlled according to the state of the user getting on or off the vehicle. Exemplarily, the controller is also used to receive the unlocking signal of the car key, and can control the outer trim panel 210 to flip from the first set position to the second set position according to the unlocking signal of the car key. Specifically, when the user unlocks the vehicle through the car key, the controller obtains the user unlocking the vehicle through the vehicle system, or the controller directly receives the unlocking signal of the car key, and controls the outer trim panel 210 to flip from the first set position to the second set position according to the unlocking signal of the car key, so that the outer trim panel 210 is hidden and the interior panel assembly 220 is exposed. At the same time, the controller can also light up the light strip 222 according to the unlocking signal of the car key, and control the speaker 223 to emit a prompt sound. Alternatively, the controller is also used to receive the door opening signal of the door corresponding to the door opening frame 100, and can control the outer trim panel 210 to flip from the first set position to the second set position according to the door opening signal. That is, when the user unlocks the door from the outside or from the inside, the controller obtains the door unlock signal through the vehicle system, and controls the outer panel 210 to flip from the first setting position to the second setting position, so that the outer panel 210 is hidden and the interior panel assembly 220 is exposed. At the same time, the controller also lights up the light strip 222 and controls the speaker 223 to emit a prompt sound.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the proximity sensor can also be used to obtain information about the user approaching the door to determine the user's need to enter the vehicle. For example, when the user approaches the door, the proximity sensor on the door obtains information about the user approaching the door to determine that the user has information to enter the vehicle, and the controller can control the outer panel 210 in the flip mechanism 200 to rotate according to the signal detected by the proximity sensor.

[0062] It should be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle assembly is applied to the automobile, multiple vehicle assemblies can be used, such as vehicle assemblies corresponding to the driving position, the co-pilot position and the rear passenger position. The controller of each vehicle assembly can independently control the outer trim 210 of the corresponding flipping mechanism 200 to flip. Of course, it is also possible to share a controller among multiple vehicle assemblies, and the controller can independently control the outer trim 210 of each flipping mechanism 200 to flip independently. Exemplarily, when multiple vehicle assemblies share a controller, the controller can control at least the flipping mechanism 200 of the vehicle assembly corresponding to the driving position according to the unlocking signal of the car key, such as only controlling the outer trim 210 of the flipping mechanism 200 of the vehicle assembly corresponding to the driving position to flip, or controlling the outer trim 210 of the flipping mechanism 200 of all vehicle assemblies to flip. Of course, when the user unlocks any door from inside or outside the door, the controller independently controls the outer trim 210 of the flipping mechanism 200 corresponding to the unlocked door to flip.

[0063] In the above examples, in addition to the above control methods, the vehicle components may also adopt other feasible control methods, which are not illustrated one by one in the embodiments of the present application.

[0064] To facilitate understanding of the vehicle component provided in the embodiment of the present application, the embodiment of the present application also provides a method for using the vehicle component, the method comprising the following steps:

[0065] Step 001: Obtain the user's vehicle entry demand information;

[0066] Specifically, the user's need to enter the vehicle may be determined by obtaining information about the user opening the vehicle door; and / or the user's need to enter the vehicle may be determined by obtaining information about the user approaching the vehicle door through a proximity sensor.
