[0043] In the following description, a large number of specific details are provided to provide a more thorough understanding of the present application. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present application embodiments can be implemented without one or more of these details. In other examples, in order to avoid confusion with the present application embodiments, some technical features well known in the art are not described.

[0044] In order to fully understand the implementation of the present application, a detailed structure will be presented in the following description. Obviously, the implementation of the implementation of the present application is not limited to the specific details familiar to those skilled in the art.

[0045] It should be understood that the purpose of the terms used herein is only to describe specific embodiments and is not intended to limit the present application, and the singular forms "a", "an" and "said / the" are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. When the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of the features, integral bodies, steps, operations, elements and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integral bodies, steps, operations, elements, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0046] Ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" cited in this application are merely identifiers and do not have any other meaning, such as a specific order. Moreover, for example, the term "first component" itself does not imply the existence of a "second component", and the term "second component" itself does not imply the existence of a "first component". It should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "inner", "outer" and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and are not limiting.

[0047] The terms "parallel" / "perpendicular" and similar expressions used in this application include an absolute parallel / perpendicular relationship and a roughly parallel / perpendicular relationship (for example, a relationship that differs from absolute parallel / perpendicular by a range of -5° to +5°), which can have equivalent effects.

[0048] Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings show representative embodiments of the present application and do not limit the present application.

[0049] Convertible vehicles of related technologies are generally not equipped with front spoiler systems. When the convertible top is folded, the car compartment is completely exposed to the outside environment, and foreign objects in the outside environment can easily fly into the car compartment, threatening the safety of passengers. As the airflow increases, wind noise will also increase, and high-intensity airflow will also affect the comfort of passengers.

[0050] Convertible vehicles without front spoiler systems have the following disadvantages:

[0051] 1. Too much wind causes discomfort to passengers. As the vehicle speed increases, the wind speed gradually increases. When the soft top is opened, the head and neck of the passengers are more sensitive and exposed. The overly intense airflow will give the passengers a strong sense of wind, and the temperature of some parts of the body will drop. In severe cases, it is easy to cause scalp numbness and facial and neck spasms, which may induce traffic accidents.

[0052] 2. Excessive noise. When the vehicle speed increases, the oncoming wind speed increases and the wind noise inside the convertible increases rapidly. The noise covers other surrounding sounds, and the passengers inside the car will not be able to hear the surrounding sounds, which seriously affects the communication between the passengers inside the car and even threatens the driver's safe driving.

[0053] 3. There are potential safety hazards. When the convertible top is opened, the car compartment is connected to the outside world. Foreign objects such as sand, stones, and leaves on the road surface can easily enter the car compartment. As the car speed increases, the speed of foreign objects relative to the passengers increases, which can easily cause accidental injuries to the passengers, threaten their safety, and reduce the riding experience.

[0054] In order to at least partially solve the above problems, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application provides a front spoiler and a convertible vehicle 10 having the front spoiler.

[0055] See also Figures 1 to 4 The present application provides a front spoiler device, which is suitable for a vehicle 10, such as a convertible vehicle. The front spoiler device may include a spoiler and a deflector. The spoiler is suitable for being arranged on the front windshield 11 of the vehicle 10. The deflector is arranged on the spoiler. The deflector is suitable for guiding the direction of the airflow, that is, the deflector is used to guide the flow direction of the airflow. The spoiler is movably arranged between a storage position and a deployment position. In the installation state where the front spoiler device is installed to the front windshield 11 of the vehicle 10, the front spoiler located in the deployment position at least partially extends above the front windshield 11 in the vehicle height direction D3, and the front spoiler located in the storage position is arranged closer to the front windshield 11 in the vehicle height direction D3. The vehicle height direction D3 can be understood as the height direction of the vehicle in use.

[0056] According to the front spoiler device of the present application, the spoiler can cut the airflow, thereby changing the wind direction and weakening the wind force, thereby reducing the oncoming impact of the airflow on the body of the driver and the passenger, and improving comfort. The flow direction of the airflow can be guided by providing a guide member, thereby helping to guide the oncoming airflow to other directions, and also helping to reduce the impact of the airflow on the body of the driver and the passenger, thereby improving comfort.

[0057] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3In addition, the front spoiler device may further include a transmission assembly (not shown) and a spoiler motor 101. One end of the transmission assembly is transmission-connected to the spoiler. The spoiler motor 101 is connected to the transmission assembly. The spoiler motor 101 is suitable for being fixedly mounted to the front windshield 11 of the vehicle 10. That is, the spoiler motor 101 is transmission-connected to the spoiler through the transmission assembly. The spoiler motor 101 is used to provide power. The transmission assembly is used to receive the power output by the spoiler motor 101 and transmit it to the spoiler 103 to drive the spoiler to move. The spoiler motor 101 is suitable for driving the spoiler to move between the storage position and the deployment position in the vehicle height direction D3 through the transmission assembly. By arranging the spoiler motor 101 and the transmission assembly, it is possible to easily realize the electric driving of the spoiler to be raised and lowered, which is conducive to improving the intelligent control function.

[0058] For example, the transmission assembly can be a screw nut assembly (not shown). The screw nut assembly includes a screw and a nut. The screw is directly or indirectly connected to the output shaft of the spoiler motor 101. The screw extends in the vehicle height direction D3. The nut is fixed to the spoiler directly or indirectly through an intermediate structure. When the spoiler motor 101 is working, the screw can be driven to rotate, so that the nut can drive the spoiler to move in the vehicle height direction D3 through the cooperation of the screw and the nut.

[0059] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 For example, the front spoiler device may further include a foldable support assembly 104. The foldable support assembly 104 is connected between the spoiler and the front windshield 11 to be unfolded or folded as the spoiler moves. By providing the foldable support assembly 104, the spoiler can be supported on the front windshield 11 so that the spoiler is maintained at a corresponding height.

[0060] Furthermore, a plurality of foldable support assemblies 104 may be provided, and the foldable support assemblies 104 are arranged at intervals in the vehicle width direction D2 . The vehicle width direction D2 may be understood as the width direction or the left-right direction of the vehicle in use.

[0061] Specifically, the foldable support assembly 104 may be a telescopic rod assembly composed of multiple telescopic rods. The foldable support assembly 104 may be a connecting rod assembly composed of multiple connecting rods hinged to each other.

[0062] Continue reading Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4In addition, a spoiler filter 106 is provided on the spoiler. The spoiler filter 106 is provided with vents that penetrate along the front-to-back direction D1 of the vehicle, and the vents are suitable for allowing airflow to pass through. By providing the spoiler filter 106, on the one hand, the stability of the connection structure between the spoiler and the front windshield 11 is enhanced; on the other hand, foreign matter can be filtered to improve safety. The front-to-back direction D1 of the vehicle can be understood as the front-to-back direction or the length direction of the vehicle in use.

[0063] For example, the spoiler filter 106 can be a foldable or deformable mesh structure. In particular, the spoiler filter 106 can be a flexible mesh structure, such as gauze, metal wire mesh, non-metal wire mesh, etc. In this way, the spoiler filter 106 is unfolded and folded as the spoiler moves in the vehicle height direction D3.

[0064] Optionally, the spoiler is located above the spoiler filter 106. That is, the spoiler filter 106 is located below the spoiler. When the spoiler is in the deployed position, the oncoming airflow is divided into two parts, an upper part and an lower part. The airflow below the spoiler can weaken the wind force and filter foreign matter through the spoiler filter 106.

[0065] See also Figures 1 to 4 In addition, the air guide may be a spoiler cone 105. The spoiler cone 105 is connected to the spoiler and protrudes from the top surface of the spoiler in the vehicle height direction D3. The spoiler cone 105 is installed on the spoiler, which can cut and weaken the oncoming airflow above the spoiler, thereby reducing the impact of the oncoming airflow on the driver and passengers, and further improving comfort. When the wind force of the airflow is weakened, it also helps to reduce wind noise to a certain extent.

[0066] Optionally, the spoiler cone 105 is located above the spoiler. In this way, the spoiler cone 105 can only divide and weaken the oncoming airflow located above the spoiler.

[0067] Optionally, the area of ​​the cross section of the spoiler cone 105 perpendicular to the vehicle front-rear direction D1 increases from the front of the vehicle 10 to the rear of the vehicle 10. In this way, the spoiler cone 105 can be used to divide the oncoming airflow and guide it to both sides of the vehicle width direction D2, thereby further reducing the oncoming wind volume and oncoming wind force.

[0068] Optionally, the size of the spoiler cone 105 in the vehicle height direction D3 increases from the front of the vehicle 10 to the rear of the vehicle 10. In this way, the spoiler cone 105 can effectively divide the oncoming airflow.

[0069] Optionally, the area of ​​the cross section of the spoiler cone 105 perpendicular to the vehicle height direction D3 decreases from the bottom of the vehicle 10 to the top of the vehicle 10. This can reduce the resistance on the upper part of the spoiler cone 105 and improve the effect of the spoiler cone 105 on the oncoming airflow segmentation and diversion.

[0070] For example, the front spoiler device may include a plurality of spoiler cones 105. The plurality of spoiler cones 105 are arranged at intervals along the vehicle width direction D2. By providing a plurality of spoiler cones 105, the oncoming airflow can be weakened at different positions in the vehicle width direction D2, thereby making the comfort of different parts of the vehicle 10 in the vehicle width direction D2 more balanced.

[0071] Optionally, the spoiler cone 105 is a triangular pyramid. The triangular pyramid is a structural form shown in the figure. The triangular pyramid has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0072] In other examples, the spoiler cone 105 may also be a structural form other than a triangular pyramid.

[0073] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 In addition, the front spoiler device may further include a spoiler fixing plate 102. The spoiler fixing plate 102 is adapted to be connected to the front windshield 11 of the vehicle 10. The spoiler is movably mounted to the spoiler fixing plate 102. The spoiler fixing plate 102 serves as a connecting member between the front spoiler device and the front windshield 11 of the vehicle 10, and is used to achieve assembly connection with the front windshield 11.

[0074] Optionally, the specific structure of the spoiler fixing plate 102 may be matched with the structure of the windshield 11 , so as to better fit the windshield 11 when the spoiler fixing plate 102 is installed on the windshield 11 .

[0075] Optionally, the spoiler motor 101 is configured to change the rotation speed according to the driving speed of the vehicle 10. For example, the rotation speed of the spoiler motor 101 increases with the increase of the driving speed of the vehicle 10. That is, the higher the vehicle speed, the faster the spoiler moves to the deployed position.

[0076] Optionally, the spoiler motor 101 may also be configured to change the angular displacement according to the speed of the vehicle 10. For example, the angular displacement of the spoiler motor 101 increases with the increase in the speed of the vehicle 10. That is, the higher the vehicle speed, the greater the displacement of the spoiler toward the deployed position, and the greater the deployment amplitude of the spoiler.

[0077] Optionally, the spoiler filter 106 is located on a side of the transmission assembly away from the vehicle compartment in the vehicle front-rear direction D1 , which can shield and protect the transmission assembly and improve the front aesthetic effect of the front of the vehicle 10 .

[0078] Optionally, the spoiler filter 106 is connected to the end of the spoiler away from the vehicle compartment in the front-to-back direction D1. In this way, a storage space can be enclosed between the spoiler and the side of the spoiler filter 106 facing the vehicle compartment. The storage space can accommodate structures such as a transmission assembly. Since the storage space is on the side facing the vehicle compartment instead of the side facing the front of the vehicle 10, the contact surface of the combination of the spoiler and the spoiler filter 106 and the oncoming airflow can be reduced, reducing wind and thus reducing resistance.

[0079] Optionally, the front spoiler is configured such that:

[0080] The spoiler is gradually deployed as the vehicle speed increases, and the spoiler motor 101 is linked with the vehicle speed and the rear spoiler system (not shown). After the convertible is folded, the spoiler is raised when the vehicle is started and lowered when the vehicle is stopped.

[0081] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the spoiler according to the present application is connected to the spoiler fixing plate 102 through a transmission assembly, and the spoiler can be adjusted to the deployment position and the storage position. A spoiler motor 101 is installed under the spoiler fixing plate 102, and the deployment speed of the spoiler system can be adjusted according to the vehicle speed. A spoiler filter 106 is installed between the spoiler and the spoiler fixing plate 102, which can enhance the connection between the spoiler and the spoiler fixing plate 102 on the one hand, and filter foreign matter on the other hand. The spoiler cone 105 installed on the spoiler can cut and weaken the oncoming airflow.

[0082] During the driving process of the vehicle 10, as the vehicle speed increases, the intensity of the oncoming airflow also increases. The strong airflow directly blows on the occupants' faces, which will bring a very uncomfortable riding experience to the occupants. The spoiler cone 105 of the front spoiler system will divert the high-intensity oncoming airflow, and the airflow coming from the front of the front spoiler system will be split into several airflows with smaller intensity by the spoiler cone 105 on the spoiler. The airflow coming from both sides of the front spoiler system will be changed in flow direction by the spoiler cone 105 on the spoiler and flow to both sides of the car. On the one hand, it changes the flow direction of the airflow on both sides, and on the other hand, it splits the strong front airflow into several airflows with smaller intensity, thereby improving the riding comfort of the occupants.

[0083] The spoiler cone 105 installed on the spoiler works in conjunction with the spoiler to change the flow direction of the oncoming wind, so that most of the airflow moves away from the direction of the car, and a small part of the airflow passes through the spoiler filter 106 and is further weakened when passing through the transmission component and the foldable support component 104 before entering the car. It can be seen that the front spoiler device can protect the car from the positive attack of the strong oncoming airflow, thereby reducing the positive oncoming wind strength of the passengers, improving the comfort of the passengers, and reducing wind noise.

[0084] When the spoiler moves to the deployed position, the spoiler filter 106 also opens. After the spoiler filter 106 opens, most of the airflow blowing toward the spoiler filter 106 is rebounded, leaving only a small part of the relatively weaker airflow passing through the vents of the spoiler filter 106 and flowing into the car, thereby achieving the purpose of filtering strong airflow. The ceramic willow filter can not only filter strong airflow, but also filter various foreign objects such as flying sand, stones, leaves, flying small animals, feces, etc. coming along the front windshield, playing a dual filtering role, further improving the overall vehicle riding experience of the convertible.

[0085] In summary, the front spoiler device of the present application can be used for convertible vehicles, which can be newly produced convertible vehicles or convertible vehicles to be modified. This provides an optional solution for convertible vehicles to improve the driving experience. The front spoiler device of the present application can filter foreign objects flying from the external environment into the car compartment, thereby improving the safety of the entire vehicle. The front spoiler device of the present application can weaken the intensity of the oncoming airflow, improve ride comfort and reduce noise. The front spoiler device of the present application can also be linked with the vehicle speed and the rear spoiler system to greatly improve the coolness of the entire vehicle. The front spoiler device of the present application can be folded to a storage position, which can also save vehicle body space and greatly improve the ride experience of convertible vehicles.

[0086] See also Figures 1 to 4 The present application provides a vehicle 10. The vehicle may be a convertible vehicle. The convertible vehicle may include a front windshield 11 and the above-mentioned front spoiler. The front spoiler is arranged on the front windshield 11. In the vehicle height direction D3, at least part of the front spoiler is located on the upper side of the front windshield 11.

[0087] According to the convertible vehicle of the present application, by installing the above-mentioned front spoiler on the front windshield 11, it is helpful to weaken the impact of the oncoming airflow on the driver and passengers, thereby improving comfort. Since at least part of the front spoiler is located on the upper side of the front windshield 11, when the spoiler is in the storage position, it can also play a certain wind blocking effect.

[0088] Optionally, the front spoiler is configured such that:

[0089] After the convertible top of the vehicle is moved to the closed position, the spoiler is in the stowed position.

[0090] The front spoiler device and the vehicle 10 having the front spoiler device according to the present application have the following advantages:

[0091] 1. The present application provides an automatic front spoiler device for improving the safety of convertible vehicles. After the convertible vehicle is equipped with the front spoiler device, as the vehicle speed gradually increases, the front spoiler device gradually deploys, and the flying sand, stones, leaves and other foreign objects that would otherwise enter the vehicle compartment will be blocked by the spoiler filter 106 of the front spoiler device;

[0092] 2. The present application provides an automatic front spoiler device for improving the comfort of convertible vehicles. After the convertible vehicle is equipped with the front spoiler device, as the vehicle speed gradually increases, the front spoiler device gradually unfolds, and the gradually strengthened oncoming airflow will be divided into two sections, the upper airflow is cut and weakened by the spoiler cone 105 and diverges to the surroundings, and the lower airflow is blocked and broken by the spoiler plate and the spoiler filter 106, and is greatly weakened. Finally, the airflow that hits the occupant's body head-on will be greatly weakened;

[0093] 3. The present application provides an automatic front spoiler device for reducing wind noise of a convertible vehicle. After the convertible vehicle is equipped with the front spoiler device, as the vehicle speed gradually increases, the front spoiler device gradually deploys, and under the action of the front spoiler device, the oncoming airflow is weakened and the wind noise is reduced;

[0094] 4. The present application provides an automatic front spoiler device that increases the coolness of convertible vehicles. After the convertible vehicle is equipped with the front spoiler device, as the vehicle speed gradually increases, the front spoiler device gradually unfolds, and at the same time works in conjunction with the vehicle speed and the rear spoiler system to enhance the dynamic aesthetics of the entire vehicle. When the convertible is folded, it will rise when the vehicle is started and fall when the vehicle is stopped, thereby enhancing the dynamic aesthetics of the entire vehicle;

[0095] 5. This application provides a foldable automatic front spoiler. The front spoiler proposed in this patent is a foldable spoiler system. After the convertible top is unfolded, the rear compartment is isolated from the outside, and a safe sealed cavity is formed inside the vehicle. The front spoiler is automatically retracted to reduce wind resistance and not occupy precious vehicle body space;

[0096] Based on the above analysis, the automatic spoiler system designed by this patent can improve the safety, comfort and noise of convertible vehicles; it is cooler than traditional convertible vehicles, and the spoiler system designed by this patent is a foldable spoiler system, which will not take up too much valuable vehicle body space.
