[0026] The above and other aspects, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure will become more apparent in view of the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Specific embodiments of the disclosed embodiments are described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings; however, it should be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely examples of the disclosed embodiments, which may be implemented in a variety of ways. Well-known and / or repeated functions and structures are not described in detail to avoid unnecessary or redundant details that obscure the disclosed embodiments. Therefore, the specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not intended to be limiting, but merely serve as a basis and representative basis for the claims to teach those skilled in the art to use the disclosed embodiments in a variety of ways with substantially any suitable detailed structure.

[0028] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the embodiments of the present disclosure and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the embodiments of the present disclosure described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0029] This specification may use the phrases "in one embodiment," "in another embodiment," "in yet another embodiment," or "in other embodiments," all of which may refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to the present disclosure.

[0030] The first embodiment of the disclosed embodiment provides a groove assembly, and the groove assembly involved in this embodiment is arranged in the A-pillar sheet metal 10 at the front of the vehicle, so that the glass 11 can be lifted up and down in the window at the front of the vehicle, and the A-pillar sheet metal here is connected to the door sheet metal. It can not only realize positioning and installation in the A-pillar sheet metal 10, but also realize that the glass 11 will not have track deviation and fall out of the groove when lifting in the window, and can also realize overlap between the front triangular window 12 located on the front side of the A-pillar to prevent problems such as poor rebound effect and permanent deformation, and can ensure that it has sealing, functionality and aesthetics.

[0031] Specifically, the groove assembly involved in this embodiment includes a supporting frame 1, and the supporting frame 1 is extended along the Y direction (that is, the length direction of the vehicle). The supporting frame 1 here adopts a double-frame structure with high strength. The supporting frame 1 can provide supporting force for the glass 11. The use of such a double-frame structure can prevent the glass 11 from having no support in the Y direction during the lifting process, and can limit the glass 11 in the Y direction during the lifting process of the glass 11, thereby avoiding the glass 11 from being twisted and causing abnormal lifting and lowering.

[0032] Furthermore, considering that rubber alone cannot effectively support the glass 11, it is necessary to increase the supporting force in the Y direction to position and fix the groove assembly in the A-pillar sheet metal. For this purpose, a clamping frame 2 is provided on the support frame 1, which is used to clamp with a part of the A-pillar sheet metal 10 to fix the groove assembly in the A-pillar sheet metal 10. Here, for example, a stop clamping structure is adopted at the end position of the A-pillar sheet metal 10 to facilitate connection with the clamping frame 2.

[0033] Preferably, the snap-in frame 2 adopts a slot structure, for example. When the snap-in frame 2 adopts the slot structure, its slot faces the inner side of the vehicle, so that part of the A-pillar sheet metal can be inserted into the slot structure to achieve positioning and connection between the snap-in frame 2 and the A-pillar sheet metal 10.

[0034] Specifically, a portion (e.g., an end portion) of the A-pillar sheet metal 10 is inserted into the clamping frame 2 to achieve mutual fixation between the channel assembly and the A-pillar sheet metal 10. The support frame 1 and the clamping frame 2 are made of a material with a relatively high hardness, so as to achieve overall support for the channel assembly in the A-pillar sheet metal and limit the position of the glass 11.

[0035] Furthermore, a clamping stop lip 21 is provided in the clamping frame 2, and the clamping stop lip 21 abuts against the portion of the A-pillar sheet metal 10 inserted into the clamping frame 2. The clamping stop lip 21 is made of rubber, for example, and the pull-out force between the clamping stop lip 21 and the A-pillar sheet metal 10 is controlled to be above 100N / 100mm, thereby preventing the glass 11 from coming out during the lifting and lowering process.

[0036] Furthermore, a first rubber portion 3 is provided on a first side of the clamping frame 2 close to the front triangular window 12 , and the first rubber portion 3 is used to abut against the front triangular window 12 , thereby achieving sealing with the front triangular window 12 .

[0037] Among them, the first rubber part 3 includes a first supporting part 31, and the first supporting part 31 is connected to the supporting frame 1, for example, it can be formed by covering the supporting frame 1. Since the supporting frame 1 adopts a double-frame structure, the double-frame structure of the supporting frame 1 can be tightly fixed by relying on the first supporting part 31 to ensure the stability of the structure; a second supporting part 32 is arranged on the first supporting part 31, and the second supporting part 32 here can, for example, be wrapped around the outside of the first supporting part 31 and extended in the direction of the front triangular window 12 to achieve overlapping with the front triangular window 12.

[0038] Here, the first support part 31 and the second support part 32 are made of rubber, and the hardness of the first support part 31 is greater than that of the second support part 32, wherein the hardness of the first support part 31 is preferably 85±5 degrees.

[0039] Furthermore, the second support portion 32 here adopts a bubble tube structure made of rubber. By adopting the bubble tube structure, an effective seal can be formed between the front triangular window 12, and the deviation of the glass of the front triangular window 12 in the Y direction can be effectively buffered and adapted. At the same time, the bubble tube structure used here has a certain elasticity so that it has good resilience when overlapping with the front triangular window 12 to prevent permanent deformation. In addition, the bubble tube structure here can cover the overlapping part with the glass of the front triangular window 12, thereby improving the aesthetics. It should be noted that the hardness of the material used in the bubble tube structure here is lower than the hardness of the first support portion 31, and its hardness is controlled at 60±5 degrees.

[0040] Thus, in this embodiment, the groove assembly is overlapped with the front triangular window 12 through the second support portion 32 to form a closed space, and at the same time, the first support portion 31 is wrapped by the second support portion 32, thereby playing a good sealing role in the contact with the front triangular window 12.

[0041] Furthermore, a second rubber portion 4 is provided on a second side of the clamping frame 2 away from the front triangular window 12. The second rubber portion 4 is provided on the supporting frame 1, for example, by being covered on the supporting frame 1, and has a recess 41. The recess 41 is provided opposite to the side surface of the glass 11. One side of the glass 11 extends into the recess 41 and can be in the recess 41, so that lifting and lowering can be achieved under the premise of ensuring sealing.

[0042] In order to realize the positioning and support of the glass 11 through the groove assembly, a positioning column 42 with a predetermined thickness is arranged inside the recess 41, and the positioning column 42 is particularly arranged on a side of the recess 41 close to the glass 11, so that the outer surface of the glass 11 contacts the positioning column 42, so that the positioning and fixation in the X direction (that is, the width direction of the vehicle) are realized by the positioning column 42 during the lifting and lowering of the glass 11. Furthermore, the positioning column 42 here can be made of rubber with a relatively high hardness, and its predetermined thickness is set to be above 3 mm to prevent the glass 11 from colliding with the support frame 1 and failing to achieve effective buffering.

[0043] In addition, a buffer edge 43 is also provided in the recess 41. The buffer edge 43 is arranged opposite to the positioning column 42. After the glass 11 is inserted into the recess 41, its inner surface is supported in the X direction in the recess 41 through the buffer edge 43. The buffer edge 43 here can be made of rubber with relatively low hardness, so that interference is formed between it and the glass 11, so that the glass 11 can be protected during the lifting and lowering process of the glass 11. Furthermore, the contact surface between the buffer edge 43 and the glass 11 is formed by PE co-extrusion technology, so as to improve the service life of the groove assembly. Preferably, the thickness of the bottom of the buffer edge 43 is controlled between 1.2-1.5mm, so as not only to play a positioning role for the glass 11, but also to prevent the glass 11 from having difficulty in lifting or getting stuck, resulting in problems such as poor NVH sealing.

[0044] Furthermore, outer overlapping edges 44 are arranged on both sides of the opening of the recess 41. When the glass 11 is inserted into the recess 41, the outer overlapping edges 44 overlap with the surface of the glass 11 to achieve sealing on the outer surface of the glass 11. Here, the outer surface treatment of the outer overlapping edges 44 adopts PE co-extrusion layer technology, so that the wear resistance of the outer overlapping edges 44 can be improved when the outer overlapping edges 44 overlap with the glass 11.

[0045] In addition, the second rubber part 4 also includes at least one clamping part, and the clamping part is arranged at the end of the second rubber part 4 close to the inner side of the vehicle. In a specific embodiment, the A-pillar sheet metal includes a sheet metal body and a sheet metal reinforcement member arranged on the sheet metal body. For this purpose, the clamping part correspondingly includes a first clamping part 51 and a second clamping part 52, and the first clamping part 51 is clamped with the end of the sheet metal body, and the second clamping part 52 is clamped with the end of the sheet metal reinforcement member, so that a tighter fixation can be achieved between the second rubber part 4 and the A-pillar sheet metal 10. Here, the first clamping part 51 and the second clamping part 52 can achieve the inner buckle positioning with the A-pillar sheet metal 10, which not only improves the stability of the connection, but also ensures the sealing, functionality and aesthetics of the groove assembly.

[0046] In addition, positioning holes are provided on the A-pillar sheet metal 10, especially at the corners where the A-pillar sheet metal 10 is connected to the crossbeam, to position the groove assembly. Correspondingly, positioning buckles are provided at corresponding positions on the groove assembly to cooperate with the positioning holes on the A-pillar sheet metal 10 to achieve positioning of the groove assembly.

[0047] When installing the groove assembly on the A-pillar sheet metal 10, first fix the position of the supporting frame 1, insert part of the A-pillar sheet metal 10 into the clamping frame 2, and at the same time, the clamping part and the end of the A-pillar sheet metal are internally clamped; then, the first rubber part 3 is overlapped with the front triangular window 12, and one side of the glass 11 is inserted into the recess 41 and positioned by the positioning column 41 and the buffer edge 42.

[0048] A second embodiment of the disclosed embodiments provides a vehicle window, which includes the groove assembly involved in any of the above-mentioned technical solutions. In the vehicle, the groove assembly involved in the above-mentioned embodiments is arranged in the A-pillar sheet metal 10 at the front of the vehicle, so that the glass 11 can be raised and lowered in the vehicle window at the front of the vehicle.

[0049] A third embodiment of the disclosed embodiments provides a vehicle, comprising the vehicle window involved in any one of the above technical solutions.

[0050] The disclosed embodiment can achieve mutual cooperation with the A-pillar sheet metal and the vehicle window glass, adopts a stop structure to achieve installation positioning on the A-pillar sheet metal and achieve directional support through a clip-on method, and at the same time has multiple functions of positioning and supporting the glass; the first support part adopts a double-skeleton structure can not only meet the positioning and sealing of the vehicle window glass, but also achieve a good overlap with the front triangular window to improve the sealing, and at the same time form an inward buckle positioning with the A-pillar sheet metal, thereby improving stability, thereby ensuring good sealing, functionality and aesthetics.
