[0041] Preferably, the door sill 3 is an integral aluminum extruded door sill 3, which can effectively crush and absorb collision energy.

[0042] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper beam outer panel 24 includes a first outer panel segment and a second outer panel segment, the first outer panel segment is connected between the A-pillar outer panel 21 and the B-pillar outer panel 22, and the second outer panel segment is connected between the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the C-pillar outer panel 23, and the upper beam inner panel 14 includes a first inner panel segment and a second inner panel segment, the first inner panel segment is connected between the A-pillar inner panel 11 and the B-pillar inner panel 12, and the second inner panel segment is connected between the B-pillar inner panel 12 and the C-pillar inner panel 13.

[0043] Furthermore, if Figure 3 As shown, the top end of the B-pillar outer panel 22 is connected with a first adapter plate 25, and the first adapter plate 25 has a first side plate extending toward and connected to the first outer panel segment and a second side plate extending toward and connected to the second outer panel segment, and the first outer panel segment and the A-pillar outer panel 21 are connected by a second adapter plate 26 having a corner. Thus, the integrated outer door ring 2 is composed of a multi-part structure including the A-pillar outer panel 21, the first outer panel segment, the B-pillar outer panel 22, the second outer panel segment, the C-pillar outer panel 23, the first adapter plate 25, and the second adapter plate 26. Different parts can choose a variety of material thicknesses and material combinations, and the weight reduction opportunity is greatly improved.

[0053] The vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the vehicle side reinforcement structure according to the above embodiment.

[0054] The vehicle of the embodiment of the present invention adopts the above-mentioned vehicle side panel reinforcement structure, and the side panel door ring assembly includes an integrated inner door ring 1 and an integrated outer door ring 2, and the integrated outer door ring 2 includes a connected A-pillar outer panel 21, a B-pillar outer panel 22, a C-pillar outer panel 23 and an upper beam outer panel 24, the integrated inner door ring 1 includes an A-pillar inner panel 11, a B-pillar inner panel 12, a C-pillar inner panel 13 and an upper beam inner panel 14, the integrated inner door ring 1 and the integrated outer door ring 2 are both connected to the door sill 3, and the bottom plate crossbeam is connected to the door sill 3, thereby, the integrated door ring reduces the number of structural parts and production processes, and the integrated door ring can form a closed ring reinforcement structure after being connected to the door sill 3, thereby improving the overall strength of the vehicle side panel, eliminating the weakening of the overall strength of the side panel due to welding defects and welding failures, and at the same time, the floor crossbeam 4 can effectively support the door sill 3, protect the battery and the passenger compartment safety, and the vehicle has good anti-collision performance.

[0055] The method for manufacturing a side enclosure door knocker assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the side enclosure door knocker assembly is the side enclosure door knocker assembly according to the above embodiment, comprises:

[0056] First, the A-pillar outer panel 21, the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the C-pillar outer panel 23 are welded to the door sill imitation member 6 in sequence, and then the upper beam outer panel 24 is welded between the top end of the A-pillar outer panel 21 and the top end of the B-pillar outer panel 22, and the upper beam outer panel 24 is welded between the top end of the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the top end of the C-pillar outer panel 23 to form an integrated outer door ring 2, and then the A-pillar inner panel 11, the B-pillar inner panel 12 and the C-pillar inner panel 13 are welded to the door sill imitation member 6 in sequence, and then the upper beam inner panel 14 is welded between the top end of the A-pillar inner panel 11 and the top end of the B-pillar inner panel 12, and the upper beam inner panel 14 is welded between the top end of the B-pillar inner panel 12 and the top end of the C-pillar inner panel 13 to form an integrated inner door ring 1, and after the integrated outer door ring 2 and the integrated inner door ring 1 are formed, the door sill imitation member 6 is cut off.

[0057] It should be noted that, taking the integrated outer door ring 2 as an example, if the A-pillar outer panel 21, the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the C-pillar outer panel 23 are directly connected to the upper beam outer panel 24 as one, since the bottom ends of the A-pillar outer panel 21 and the B-pillar outer panel 22 are open, and the bottom ends of the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the C-pillar outer panel 23 are open, it is difficult to control the molding accuracy of the integrated outer door ring 2, resulting in the mismatch between the integrated outer door ring 2 and the door sill 3 after molding.

[0058] In view of the above problems, the present application uses a door sill replica 6 to replace the door sill 3, and sequentially welds the A-pillar outer panel 21, the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the C-pillar outer panel 23 on the door sill replica 6, and then connects the upper beam outer panel 24, so that the A-pillar outer panel 21, the door sill replica 6 and the B-pillar outer panel 22 can form a closed structure, and the B-pillar outer panel 22 and the C-pillar outer panel 23 can form a closed structure, thereby ensuring the molding accuracy of the integrated outer door ring 2. Similarly, the molding process of the integrated inner door ring 1 can refer to the integrated outer door ring 2, and will not be repeated here.

[0059] Furthermore, after the integrated outer door ring 2 and the integrated inner door ring 1 are formed, the door sill imitation piece 6 can be cut off, and then the door sill 3 can be connected with the integrated outer door ring 2 and the integrated inner door ring 1 to form a side wall reinforcement structure.

[0060] The manufacturing method of the side panel door ring assembly of the embodiment of the present invention utilizes a door sill replica 6 to replace the door sill 3, and welds various components in sequence based on the door sill replica 6 to finally form an integrated inner door ring 1 and an integrated outer door ring 2, thereby reducing the number of structural parts and production processes. After the integrated door ring 1 is connected to the door sill 3, a closed annular reinforcement structure can be formed, thereby improving the overall strength of the vehicle side panel, eliminating the weakening of the overall strength of the side panel due to welding defects and welding failures, and the integrated door ring 1 remains in a closed structure during molding to ensure molding accuracy.
