The existing design methods often only guide the guard plate design through boundary size restrictions. This method can achieve engineering feasible guard plate parts, but does not consider various performance requirements. After the design is completed, the guard plate data often needs to be readjusted for various performances, which leads to low work efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0015] Furthermore, in step S1, the data information includes: guard plate layout position and coverage area.
[0016] Furthermore, in step S2, the design requirements include: development cost, weight, development plan time and processing technology; wherein, the development cost includes design and development fee, mold fee, material fee and test fee; the weight includes the weight of the part, which is a comprehensive consideration of cost and weight confirmation when the strength requirement is met; the development plan time includes the deadline for completion of development and the dates of each key development node; the processing technology includes injection molding and stamping.
[0017] Furthermore, in step S3, the dimensional constraints include: the guard plate is located below the front suspension, the front suspension is 200 mm above the ground, and the minimum ground clearance of the vehicle is 150 mm, so the guard plate design position needs to be between 150-200 mm above the ground.

[0020] Furthermore, in step S6, chamfers, rounded corners and fixed points are added.

[0032] Example 1
[0033] like Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for designing a vehicle bottom guard plate provided in this embodiment, wherein the method specifically comprises the following steps:
[0034] Step 1: Collect data information of the bottom guard plate of the car;
[0035] Receive basic information on the guard plate design, such as the guard plate layout location (such as under the front subframe, on the side of the power battery, etc.), approximate coverage area (such as shielding the suspension swing arm area to prevent stone impact during driving), development method (new development or development based on existing data), etc.;
[0036] Step 2: Determine the design requirements of the bottom guard plate of the car;
[0037] The guard plate design engineering requires input, including development costs (design and development fees, mold costs, material costs, testing costs, etc.), weight requirements (weight requirements of parts are met, and cost and weight are confirmed by comprehensive consideration), development plan (the deadline for development completion and the dates of each key development node, such as the design data lock date, test verification date, development completion date, etc.), special requirements (the combustion characteristics requirements of interior guard plates must comply with the national standard GB8410-2006, cold and heat resistance, impact resistance, corrosion resistance, etc.), and processing technology requirements (injection molding, stamping, etc.).
[0038] Step 3: Determine constraints based on data information and design requirements, including size constraints and performance constraints;
[0039] According to the allocation of the guard plate layout space structure, confirm the guard plate design size constraints. (For example, the guard plate is located below the front suspension, the front suspension is 200mm above the ground, and the minimum ground clearance of the vehicle is 150mm, then the guard plate design position must be between 150-200mm above the ground);
[0040] Collect the performance constraints related to the guard plate, such as sensory precision (the appearance of the guard plate should be aesthetically pleasing), aerodynamics (the smoothness and continuity of the surface curve of the guard plate), water management (the guard plate needs to contain drainage holes), NVH (the guard plate needs to cover as large an area as possible, and sound-absorbing materials should be added inside), etc.
[0041] Step 4: Complete the geometric surface design of the initial version of the car bottom guard plate based on the constraints;
[0042] According to the collected constraints, the guard plate profile is designed. The initial design needs to consider the size constraints and basic performance constraints. Some data details may not be reflected for the time being (such as the position of the fixed point, local chamfering, etc.).
[0043] Step 5: Check the geometric design of the first version of the bottom guard plate of the car to see if it meets the requirements;
[0044] If the requirements are met, proceed to the next step; if the requirements are not met, identify the unsatisfactory conditions and redesign the geometric surface;
[0045] The initial version of the data is sent to the dimensional and performance professionals for data verification and simulation analysis, and feedback is collected and modified until the data can meet both dimensional and performance constraints, and the data design is considered complete.
[0046] Step 6: Engineering the geometric surface data of the automobile bottom guard plate that meets the requirements to generate engineering data;
[0047] Add processing details such as chamfers, fillets, and fixing points;
[0048] Step 7: Determine whether the engineering data of the bottom guard plate meets the requirements based on size constraints, performance constraints and strength;
[0049] If the requirements are met, proceed to the next step. If the requirements are not met, identify the unsatisfactory conditions and re-engineer the data design.
[0050] The engineering data is checked for size constraints, performance constraints, and strength to confirm whether the engineering data still meets the above constraint requirements. For example, if the addition of reinforcement ribs after engineering affects the size constraints, if the local sinking pit at the fixed point after engineering is too deep, affecting the integrity of the guard plate surface, if the position and size of the drainage hole are unreasonable, or if the fixed point strength is insufficient, etc., data optimization and adjustment are required to solve these problems.
[0051] Step 8: Complete the guard plate design;
[0052] The guard plate data that meets the requirements will be reviewed by experts to confirm whether it meets all the size requirements, performance requirements and strength requirements. If it meets the requirements, proceed to the next step. If it does not meet the requirements, identify the unsatisfactory situations and optimize them in a targeted manner, and then re-evaluate after optimization;
[0053] The engineering design data is completed and, after expert review, confirmed to have met the size, performance and strength requirements, the design data is locked.
[0054] Step 9: Complete the guard plate design;
[0055] The guard plate design phase is completed, samples are processed and tested for verification, and a test report is issued after the test verification confirms that the requirements are met, and the guard plate development is completed.
