DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0061] Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0062] In the description of the present application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0063] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 14 The cover rotating device 300 and the vehicle 100 having the cover rotating device 300 according to the embodiment of the present application are described in detail.

[0064] It should be noted that in the following descriptions of up, down, left, right, front, and back, refer to Figure 3 , Fig.13 As shown, the positive direction of the x-axis is back, the negative direction of the x-axis is front, the positive direction of the y-axis is right, the negative direction of the y-axis is left, the positive direction of the z-axis is up, and the negative direction of the z-axis is down.

[0065] According to the cover plate rotating device 300 of the first embodiment of the present application, it includes a driving device 304 and a limiting structure 503. The driving device 304 is suitable for driving the cover plate 330 to rotate relative to the interior panel 500, and the limiting structure 503 is used to limit the rotation of the cover plate 330. Specifically, the driving device 304 can provide accurate and stable power for the rotation of the cover plate 330 relative to the interior panel 500, meeting different usage scenarios and functional requirements. The limiting structure 503 effectively limits the rotation of the cover plate 330, avoiding excessive rotation of the cover plate 330 caused by failure or misoperation of the driving device 304. At the same time, by adding the limiting structure 503 to effectively limit the rotation of the cover plate 330, the dependence on the sensor is reduced, which helps to effectively control the manufacturing cost of the cover plate rotating device 300 while ensuring the realization of the limiting function, so that the cover plate rotating device 300 is more competitive in price.

[0066] When the cover plate 330 rotates to contact the limiting structure 503, the driving device 304 can stop driving the cover plate 330 and start running again when the next electric control command is issued.

[0067] Optionally, the drive device 304 can be a motor, or a combination of a motor and a speed reduction mechanism. When the cover plate 330 rotates to contact the limiting structure 503, the motor is blocked and self-locked at this position, and will start running again when the next electric control command is issued.

[0068] In the related art, the cover plate rotating device needs to be limited by an additional sensor, which has a high manufacturing cost.

[0069] According to the cover plate rotating device 300 of the first aspect of the present application, the rotation of the cover plate 330 is effectively limited by adding a limiting structure 503, thereby reducing the dependence on the sensor. This helps to effectively control the manufacturing cost of the cover plate rotating device 300 while ensuring the realization of the limiting function, making the cover plate rotating device 300 more competitive in price.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the interior trim panel 500 is rotatably connected to the cover panel 330, and the limiting structure 503 is arranged on the interior trim panel 500. Thus, the integration of multiple functional structures on one component is realized, so that the interior trim panel 500 is no longer just for decoration and covering, but also deeply involved in the key function realization of the cover panel rotating device 300, making the structure of the entire interior trim system more compact and simple, optimizing the utilization efficiency of the limited interior trim space of the vehicle 100, and making the interior space more regular and orderly.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the limiting structure 503 includes a first limiting structure 501 and a second limiting structure 502, and the cover plate 330 is suitable for rotating in the first direction F1-F2 relative to the interior panel 500. In the first direction F1-F2, the first limiting structure 501 and the second limiting structure 502 are arranged at intervals on the interior panel 500. Specifically, the first limiting structure 501 and the second limiting structure 502 are arranged at intervals in the rotation direction of the cover plate 330 relative to the interior panel 500, that is, in the first direction F1-F2, which can accurately limit the rotation range of the cover plate 330, avoid the cover plate 330 from being separated, damaged, or interfering with other parts due to excessive rotation, thereby ensuring that the cover plate 330 can accurately reach a suitable position each time it rotates, greatly improving the stability and reliability of the function of the cover plate 330.

[0072] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 As shown, the cover plate 330 includes a cover plate body 331 and a cover plate connecting portion 332 , one end of the cover plate connecting portion 332 is connected to the cover plate body 331 , and the other end is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 302 .

[0073] Specifically, the cover plate rotating device 300 includes a transmission shaft 302. When the transmission shaft 302 rotates, the cover plate connecting portion 332 can be driven to rotate around the axis of the transmission shaft 302. The cover plate connecting portion 332 rotates synchronously with the transmission shaft 302, thereby driving the cover plate body 331 to rotate around the axis of the transmission shaft 302. The cover plate body 331 rotates synchronously with the cover plate connecting portion 332 and the transmission shaft 302. The cover plate connecting portion 332 plays a role of connection and reinforcement. The cover plate connecting portion 332 integrates the cover plate body 331 and the transmission shaft 302 into an organic whole structure. Through the transition connection of the cover plate connecting portion 332, its own structural characteristics (such as reasonable shape, thickness, etc.) can be used to enhance the overall structural strength of the cover plate 330 and improve the resistance of the cover plate 330 to various external forces. During the driving process of the vehicle 100, even if it encounters complex external forces such as bumps and vibrations, it can ensure that the cover plate 330 will not easily deform, break, etc., which affects its normal use, thereby improving the durability of the cover plate 330. At the same time, the separate design of the cover body 331 and the transmission shaft 302 is also conducive to the assembly of the cover rotating device 300, so that there is no interference between the cover body 331 and the interior panel 500, reducing the difficulty of installation and improving production efficiency.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the cover plate 330 can rotate between the first limiting structure 501 and the second limiting structure 502. When the cover plate 330 rotates to abut against the first limiting structure 501, the angle between the cover plate 330 and the interior panel 500 is the first angle; when the cover plate 330 rotates to abut against the second limiting structure 502, the angle between the cover plate 330 and the interior panel 500 is the second angle, and the first angle is smaller than the second angle. Specifically, by setting the first angle and the second angle, the user can flexibly select the opening degree of the cover plate 330 according to their actual needs. When the angle between the cover plate 330 and the interior panel 500 is the first angle, the cover plate 330 looks more fitted to the interior panel 500, which is consistent with the overall concise and regular visual effect of the interior of the vehicle and does not appear abrupt. When the angle between the cover plate 330 and the interior panel 500 is the second angle, it is ensured that when the cover plate 330 is flipped away from the passenger compartment, it can stop at the correct position every time, thereby improving the accuracy and repeatability of the rotation position of the cover plate 330.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, the interior panel 500 includes an interior panel body 504 and at least one interior panel connection part 505, one end of the at least one interior panel connection part 505 is connected to the interior panel body 504, the other end of the interior panel connection part 505 is suitable for rotational connection with the cover plate 330, and the limiting structure 503 is arranged on the interior panel connection part 505. Specifically, the other end of the interior panel connection part 505 is suitable for rotational connection with the cover plate 330, and the limiting structure 503 is arranged on the interior panel connection part 505, so that multiple functional structures are integrated in one component, so that the interior panel 500 is no longer just for decoration and covering, but also deeply involved in the key function realization of the cover plate rotating device 300, so that the structure of the entire interior system is more compact and simple, and the utilization efficiency of the limited space of the vehicle interior is optimized, so that the interior space appears more regular and orderly.

[0076] Optionally, the interior panel connection portion 505 may be one, two, three or more, for example Figure 2 As shown, there are two interior trim panel connection parts 505.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the cover plate 330 includes a cover plate connection portion 332, and there are two interior panel connection portions 505, the two interior panel connection portions 505 are spaced apart, and the cover plate connection portion 332 is located between the two interior panel connection portions 505. Therefore, the two spaced-apart interior panel connection portions 505 can provide a relatively balanced support for the transmission shaft 302, avoiding the problem of uneven force that may occur due to single-point support, and also avoiding waste due to too many interior panel connection portions 505.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the interior trim panel connection portion 505 is provided with a fixing hole, and the cover panel rotating device 300 includes a transmission shaft 302 , and the transmission shaft 302 passes through the fixing hole to rotatably connect the cover panel 330 to the driving device 304 .

[0079] Specifically, the driving device 304 is connected to the transmission shaft 302 in a transmission manner, and can provide power support for the rotation of the cover plate 330, thereby improving the convenience of the operation of the cover plate rotating device 300 and the convenience of the rotation of the cover plate 330. Compared with controlling the rotation of the cover plate 330 by a limit switch or a pull wire, the driving device 304 saves design and manufacturing costs. The driving device 304 can accurately control the rotation of the transmission shaft 302, thereby driving the cover plate 330 to achieve precise rotation angle control, thereby improving the stroke accuracy and stability of the cover plate rotating device 300. The cover plate 330 is connected to the interior panel 500 through the transmission shaft 302, so as to realize the position positioning between the cover plate 330 and the interior panel 500, so that the gap difference between the cover plate 330 and the interior panel 500 can more easily meet the design requirements of the vehicle 100, thereby improving the assembly effect.

[0080] In the related art, the cover rotating device 300 generally controls the opening and closing of the cover through a pull wire and a return spring, but the use of the pull wire and the return spring will result in low stroke accuracy of the cover rotating device 300 and excessive reliance on the limit switch, resulting in low stability of the cover rotating device 300.

[0081] According to the cover rotating device 300 of the embodiment of the present application, the driving device 304 drives the transmission shaft 302 to rotate and drives the cover 330 to rotate, so that the cover 330 can accurately stay at the required angle according to a pre-set program or instruction, thereby improving the travel accuracy and stability of the cover rotating device 300.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the cover plate rotating device 300 includes a transmission shaft 302, a plurality of interior panel connecting parts 505, and the transmission shaft 302 passes through the plurality of interior panel connecting parts 505 and is fixedly connected to the cover plate 330. Specifically, the plurality of interior panel connecting parts 505 cooperate with the transmission shaft 302, which structurally plays a good supporting and positioning role for the transmission shaft 302, reduces the problems of structural looseness and deformation caused by external interference, prolongs the service life of the cover plate rotating device 300, and ensures that the cover plate rotating device 300 works reliably for a long time.

[0083] Optionally, the number of the interior trim panel connecting parts 505 may be one, two, three or more.

[0084] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the limiting structure 503 is installed between the cover plate 330 and the interior trim panel 500. Therefore, the limiting structure 503 is arranged between the cover plate 330 and the interior trim panel 500, which makes full use of the original space gap between the two, does not occupy other valuable space areas of the vehicle, helps to maintain the neatness and compactness of the interior trim panel 500, and improves the efficiency of the use of the space inside the vehicle.

[0085] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the limiting structure 503 is arranged on the interior trim panel 500 .

[0086] In some embodiments of the present application, the transmission shaft 302 is installed on the cover plate connecting portion 332; or, the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connecting portion 332 are connected as an integral piece.

[0087] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 8As shown, the transmission shaft 302 is detachably mounted on the cover plate connecting portion 332, that is, the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connecting portion 332 are separate structures. Therefore, when the transmission shaft 302 or the cover plate connecting portion 332 is damaged or worn, only the damaged parts need to be replaced, which effectively saves maintenance costs and extends the service life of the cover plate 330 as a whole.

[0088] Optionally, the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connecting portion 332 may be connected in a bolt connection, a rivet connection, a snap connection, an interference fit, or the like.

[0089] In some embodiments not shown in the figure, the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connecting portion 332 are connected as an integral part. As a result, the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connecting portion 332 are integrally connected, and there are no weak links such as gaps and interfaces at the connection parts, and the continuity of the overall structure is better. The position of the transmission shaft 302 relative to the cover plate connecting portion 332 is fixed and accurate, and there will be no positional offset caused by assembly errors or loose components after long-term use. This helps to achieve precise angle control and improves the working reliability and stability of the cover plate rotating device 300.

[0090] Optionally, the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connecting portion 332 may be integrally formed by injection molding, welding, or casting.

[0091] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 As shown, the transmission shaft 302 is configured as a non-cylindrical shaft, and a transmission shaft connection hole 3321 is provided on the cover plate connection portion 332. The transmission shaft connection hole 3321 is a non-circular hole, and the transmission shaft 302 at least partially extends into the transmission shaft connection hole 3321 and the transmission shaft 302 cooperates with the transmission shaft connection hole 3321. Specifically, compared with the traditional cylindrical shaft and circular hole cooperation, the non-cylindrical transmission shaft 302 cooperates with the non-circular transmission shaft connection hole 3321, thereby avoiding relative rotation between the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate connection portion 332.

[0092] For example, the transmission shaft 302 can be milled out with a plane or a groove through a milling process, and the transmission shaft connecting hole 3321 is adapted to the shape of the transmission shaft 302 so that the transmission shaft 302 and the cover plate 330 can rotate synchronously.

[0093] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, the cover plate rotating device 300 further includes a coupling 303, which is located between the driving device 304 and the transmission shaft 302, and the coupling 303 connects the driving device 304 and the transmission shaft 302. Specifically, the coupling 303 connects the output end of the driving device 304 and the transmission shaft 302, and the coupling 303 can effectively transmit the power output from the output end of the driving device 304 to the transmission shaft 302, ensuring that the force transmission process is more stable and continuous, simplifying the layout of the cover plate rotating device 300, and saving more space.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the coupling 303 includes a first connection portion 3032 and a second connection portion 3033, the first connection portion 3032 and the second connection portion 3033 are connected, the first connection portion 3032 is connected to the driving device 304, and the second connection portion 3033 is connected to the transmission shaft 302. Specifically, the coupling 303, as an intermediate component connecting the driving device 304 and the transmission shaft 302, can effectively transmit the power generated by the driving device 304 to the transmission shaft 302, thereby driving the cover plate 330 to rotate.

[0095] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 7 As shown, the driving device 304 includes an output shaft, a first connecting portion 3032 having a first connecting hole, the first connecting hole is used to be matched with the output shaft, and a second connecting portion 3033 has a second connecting hole 3034, the second connecting hole 3034 is used to be matched with the transmission shaft 302. Specifically, the first connecting hole is used to be matched with the output shaft, and the second connecting hole 3034 is matched with the transmission shaft 302, so that the installation process is clear and easy to operate, and complex and ambiguous assembly operations are avoided, and there is no need to perform cumbersome angle adjustment, complex positioning and alignment processes, etc., which greatly improves the installation efficiency, especially in large-scale production or modification of existing vehicles, which can effectively save time and labor costs and speed up the production or modification progress.

[0096] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 7As shown, both the first connection hole and the second connection hole 3034 are non-circular holes. Therefore, both the first connection hole and the second connection hole 3034 are non-circular holes, so that the connection between the first connection hole and the output shaft, and the connection between the second connection hole 3034 and the transmission shaft 302 can achieve more reliable force transmission in the circumferential direction. Taking the keyway hole as an example, when the output shaft is inserted into the first connection hole and connected by the key, when the drive device 304 outputs torque, the key can bear the shear force in the circumferential direction, and effectively transmit the torque from the output shaft to the first connection part 3032, and then transmit it to the transmission shaft 302 through the coupling 303. Compared with the way that circular holes rely on smaller friction to transmit torque, the non-circular hole structure greatly enhances the ability and efficiency of torque transmission, ensuring that the cover plate 330 can obtain sufficient power for stable and smooth rotation, meeting the needs of opening and closing operations of the cover plate 330 in different usage scenarios.

[0097] Optionally, the non-circular hole of the first connecting hole may be a keyway hole, a spline hole, an elliptical hole, a square hole, etc. For example, the first connecting hole may be a keyway hole. The output shaft is adapted to the shape of the first connecting hole.

[0098] Optionally, the non-circular hole of the second connecting hole 3034 can be a keyway hole, a spline hole, an elliptical hole, a square hole, etc., for example Figure 5 As shown, the second connection hole 3034 can be a keyway hole. The transmission shaft 302 is adapted to the shape of the second connection hole 3034.

[0099] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 7 As shown, the coupling 303 also includes an elastic portion 3031, and the first connecting portion 3032 and the second connecting portion 3033 are connected through the elastic portion 3031. Therefore, the elastic portion 3031 plays a buffering role, and adjusts the position error of the drive device 304 and the transmission shaft 302 installed on both sides through its own elastic deformation. The elastic portion 3031 also has the function of suppressing vibration. The vibration of the drive device 304 will not be transmitted to the interior panel 500 and the passenger compartment, thereby improving the driving or riding experience of the occupants. At the same time, the elastic portion 3031 also adjusts the axial deviation caused by the different positioning references of the cover plate 330 and the drive device 304, thereby improving the positioning accuracy between the cover plate 330 and the drive device 304.

[0100] Optionally, the elastic part 3031 may be a spring, elastic rubber, a metal elastic part, etc.

[0101] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5As shown, the cover plate rotating device 300 also includes a plate assembly 310, and the driving device 304 is installed on the plate assembly 310. The plate assembly 310 is suitable for being installed on the side panel 400 of the vehicle. Specifically, the driving device 304 is installed on the plate assembly 310, and the plate assembly 310 is installed on the side panel 400, so that the cover plate rotating device 300 is conveniently integrated with the side panel 400 of the vehicle 100, thereby improving the integration degree and functionality of the vehicle 100.

[0102] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the plate assembly 310 includes a mounting plate 306 and a mounting bracket 305, and the mounting bracket 305 is used to fix the driving device 304 to the mounting plate 306. Specifically, the mounting plate 306 plays a stable supporting role for the driving device 304 through the mounting bracket 305, ensuring that the driving device 304 can still reliably provide power for the rotation of the cover plate 330 in a complex environment, and maintaining the structural stability of the entire cover plate rotating device 300.

[0103] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig.10 As shown, the mounting plate 306 is provided with a first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body, the mounting bracket 305 is provided with a bracket mounting hole 3051, the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body is connected with the bracket mounting hole 3051, and at least one of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the bracket mounting hole 3051 is an elongated hole. Specifically, at least one of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the bracket mounting hole 3051 is an elongated hole, and the elongated hole plays an adjusting role, so that the plate assembly 310 can adjust the relative position of the mounting bracket 305 and the mounting plate 306 within a certain range according to actual needs, thereby improving the versatility and convenience of the cover plate rotating device 300.

[0104] In some embodiments, the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body is an elongated hole. The relative position of the mounting bracket 305 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the direction of the length extension of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body.

[0105] In some embodiments, the bracket mounting hole 3051 is an elongated hole. The relative position of the mounting bracket 305 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the direction of the length extension of the bracket mounting hole 3051.

[0106] In some embodiments, the first fastener is adapted to pass through the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and communicate with the bracket mounting hole 3051 .

[0107] Optionally, the first fastener may be a bolt, a screw, a rivet, a snap, etc. For example, the first fastener is a bolt.

[0108] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig.10 As shown, the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the bracket mounting hole 3051 are both elongated holes, the mounting bracket 305 has a first mating surface, the mounting plate 306 is in contact with the first mating surface, the bracket mounting hole 3051 is arranged on the first mating surface, and the projection of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body in the first mating surface overlaps with the projection of the bracket mounting hole 3051 in the first mating surface at least partially. Specifically, since the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the bracket mounting hole 3051 are both elongated holes, and the projections of the two in the first mating surface overlap at least partially, the installer can make a small adjustment to the position of the mounting bracket 305 relative to the mounting plate 306 within the length direction range allowed by the elongated hole, thereby improving the flexibility and accuracy of the installation, ensuring that the mounting bracket 305 can be accurately matched with the mounting plate 306 and subsequent components such as the drive device 304, and accelerating the assembly speed, especially in the mass production of vehicle interiors, which can effectively save time and labor costs.

[0109] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig.10 As shown, the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the bracket mounting hole 3051 are cross-set or parallel. The relative position of the mounting bracket 305 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the bracket mounting hole 3051. Specifically, by cross-setting or paralleling the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the bracket mounting hole 3051, the relative position of the mounting bracket 305 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3061 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the bracket mounting hole 3051, ensuring that the output shaft of the driving device 304 and the transmission shaft 302 meet the requirements of ideal coaxiality and appropriate spacing in space, improving the assembly accuracy of the entire cover plate rotating device 300, and ensuring its subsequent stable and smooth operation.

[0110] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig. 9As shown, the plate assembly 310 includes a matching plate 308, the mounting plate 306 is directly or indirectly detachably connected to the matching plate 308, and the matching plate 308 is provided with a matching first mounting hole 3081, and the matching plate 308 is suitable for being installed on the side panel 400 of the vehicle through the matching first mounting hole 3081. Specifically, the matching first mounting hole 3081 is suitable for being connected to the side panel 400 of the vehicle through a fastener. The provision of the matching plate 308 makes the connection between the plate assembly 310 and the side panel 400 of the vehicle more stable, avoids the loosening, displacement or shaking of the plate assembly 310 due to external force, and ensures that the cover plate rotating device 300 can operate stably and reliably. At the same time, the matching plate 308 makes the connection between the plate assembly 310 and the side panel 400 of the vehicle more convenient, reduces the difficulty of alignment and the complexity of operation during installation, improves the installation efficiency, effectively saves time and labor costs, and speeds up the installation progress.

[0111] Optionally, the fastener may be a bolt, a screw, a rivet, a snap or the like.

[0112] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig. 9 As shown, the adapter plate 308 is provided with a plurality of first matching mounting holes 3081, and the first matching mounting holes 3081 are elongated holes. Therefore, the position of the adapter plate 308 on the side panel 400 can be slightly adjusted along the length extension direction of the first matching mounting holes 3081, thereby improving the installation accuracy of the adapter plate 308 and the side panel 400 of the vehicle.

[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, the length extension directions of the plurality of matching first mounting holes 3081 are parallel. Specifically, the design of the length extension directions of the plurality of matching first mounting holes 3081 being parallel provides adjustment space for the mounting of the matching plate 308 on the side panel 400 of the vehicle 100, and the position of the matching plate 308 on the side panel 400 can be slightly adjusted along the length extension direction of the matching first mounting holes 3081, thereby enhancing the versatility of the matching plate 308 and the entire cover plate rotating device 300 in different vehicle 100 application scenarios, reducing production costs, and increasing the adaptability range of the cover plate rotating device 300.

[0114] Optionally, the number of the first mounting holes 3081 on the adapter plate 308 may be one, two, three or more. Figure 7 As shown, the number of the first mounting holes of the joint is four.

[0115] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5As shown, the plate assembly 310 also includes a mounting seat 307, the mounting plate 306 is mounted on the mounting seat 307, and the mounting seat 307 is mounted on the adapter plate 308. Specifically, the mounting plate 306 and the adapter plate 308 are connected together through the mounting seat 307 to form a more stable overall structure. Compared with directly mounting the mounting plate 306 on the adapter plate 308, the addition of the mounting seat 307 provides an additional layer of connection, which can provide better support and limiting effects in all directions. At the same time, by adjusting the shape, size and height of the mounting seat 307, the position of the drive device 304 in the three-dimensional space can be changed, providing precise positioning for the connection between the drive device 304 and the transmission shaft 302.

[0116] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig.11 As shown, the mounting plate 306 is provided with a second mounting hole 3062 for the plate body, and the mounting seat 307 is provided with a first mounting hole 3071 for the seat body. The second mounting hole 3062 for the plate body is connected with the first mounting hole 3071 for the seat body, and at least one of the second mounting hole 3062 for the plate body and the first mounting hole 3071 for the seat body is an elongated hole. Specifically, when the second mounting hole 3062 for the plate body or the first mounting hole 3071 for the seat body is an elongated hole, the position of the mounting plate 306 relative to the mounting seat 307 can be flexibly adjusted by utilizing the adjustability of the elongated hole in its length direction during the installation process.

[0117] In some embodiments, the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body is an elongated hole. The relative position of the mounting seat 307 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the direction of the length extension of the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body.

[0118] In some embodiments, the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body is an elongated hole. The relative position of the mounting seat 307 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the direction of the length extension of the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body.

[0119] In some embodiments, see Fig. 9 As shown, the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body and the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body are both elongated holes. The relative positions of the mounting seat 307 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body.

[0120] In some embodiments, the second fastener is adapted to pass through the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate and the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat.

[0121] Optionally, the second fastener may be a bolt, a screw, a rivet, a snap, etc. For example, the second fastener is a bolt.

[0122] In some embodiments, the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body is cross-set or parallel-set with the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body. Specifically, by cross-setting or parallel-setting the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body, the relative position of the mounting seat 307 and the mounting plate 306 can be slightly adjusted in the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body and the length extension direction of the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body.

[0123] In some embodiments, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig.11 As shown, the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body and the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body are both elongated holes, the mounting plate 306 has a second mating surface, the mounting seat 307 is in contact with the second mating surface, the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body is arranged on the second mating surface, and the projection of the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body in the second mating surface overlaps at least partially with the projection of the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body in the second mating surface. Since the second mounting hole 3062 of the plate body and the first mounting hole 3071 of the seat body are both elongated holes, and the projections of the two in the second mating surface overlap at least partially, the installer can make a small adjustment to the position of the mounting plate 306 relative to the mounting seat 307 within the length direction range allowed by the elongated hole, thereby improving the flexibility and accuracy of the installation, ensuring that the mounting plate 306 can be accurately matched with the mounting seat 307 and subsequent components such as the drive device 304, and accelerating the assembly speed, especially in the mass production of vehicle interiors, which can effectively save time and labor costs.

[0124] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig. 9 As shown, the adapter plate 308 includes an adapter body plate 3082 and an adapter flap 3083, the adapter flap 3083 is connected to the adapter body plate 3082, the adapter flap 3083 is folded relative to the adapter body plate 3082, the first adapter mounting hole 3081 is arranged on the adapter body plate 3082, and the mounting seat 307 is mounted on the adapter flap 3083. Specifically, the adapter flap 3083 is connected to the adapter body plate 3082 to form an integral adapter plate 308 structure, the two mutually support and coordinate the force, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the entire adapter plate 308 and improving the structural stability of the plate assembly 310.

[0125] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12As shown, the mounting seat 307 is provided with a second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body, and the matching flap 3083 is provided with a matching second mounting hole 3084, the matching second mounting hole 3084 is connected with the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body, and at least one of the matching second mounting hole 3084 and the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body is an elongated hole. Specifically, when the matching second mounting hole 3084 or the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body is an elongated hole, in the process of mounting the mounting seat 307 on the matching plate 308, the adjustability of the elongated hole in its length direction can be utilized to achieve the position adjustment of the mounting seat 307 relative to the matching plate 308 in the corresponding dimension.

[0126] In some embodiments, the second mounting hole 3084 is an elongated hole. The relative position of the mounting seat 307 and the adapter plate 308 can be slightly adjusted in the direction of the length extension of the second mounting hole 3084 .

[0127] In some embodiments, the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body is an elongated hole. The relative position of the mounting seat 307 and the adapter plate 308 can be slightly adjusted in the direction of the length extension of the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body.

[0128] In some embodiments, see Fig.10 As shown, the second mounting hole 3084 and the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body are both elongated holes. The relative positions of the mounting seat 307 and the adapter plate 308 can be slightly adjusted in the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3084 and the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body.

[0129] In some embodiments, the third fastener is adapted to pass through the mating second mounting hole 3084 and the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body.

[0130] Optionally, the third fastener may be a bolt, a screw, a rivet, a buckle, etc. For example, the third fastener is a bolt.

[0131] In some embodiments, the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3084 of the mating body is cross-set or parallel to the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body. Specifically, by cross-setting or paralleling the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3084 of the mating body and the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body, the relative position of the mounting seat 307 and the adapter plate 308 can be slightly adjusted in the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3084 of the mating body and the length extension direction of the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body.

[0132] In some embodiments, see Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12As shown, the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body and the second matching mounting hole 3084 are both elongated holes, the mounting seat 307 has a first matching surface of the seat body, the matching flap 3083 is fitted with the first matching surface of the seat body, the matching second mounting hole 3084 is arranged on the first matching surface of the seat body, and the projection of the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body in the first matching surface of the seat body overlaps with the projection of the second matching mounting hole 3084 in the first matching surface of the seat body at least partially. Since the second mounting hole 3072 of the seat body and the second matching mounting hole 3084 are both elongated holes, and the projections of the two in the first matching surface of the seat body overlap at least partially, the installer can make a small adjustment to the position of the mounting seat 307 relative to the matching flap 3083 within the length direction range allowed by the elongated hole, thereby improving the flexibility and accuracy of the installation, ensuring that the mounting seat 307 can be accurately matched with the matching flap 3083 and the subsequent driving device 304 and other components, and accelerating the assembly speed, especially in the mass production of vehicle interiors, which can effectively save time and labor costs.

[0133] See also Figure 13-14 As shown, the vehicle 100 according to the second embodiment of the present application includes the above-mentioned cover rotating device 300.

[0134] According to the vehicle 100 of the second aspect of the present application, the cover plate rotating device 300 effectively limits the rotation of the cover plate 330 by adding a limiting structure 503, thereby reducing the dependence on the sensor. This helps to effectively control the manufacturing cost of the cover plate rotating device 300 while ensuring the realization of the limiting function, making the cover plate rotating device 300 more competitive in price.

[0135] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle 100 further includes an interior trim panel 500, and the cover panel 330 has a first rotation limit position and a second rotation limit position. When in the first rotation limit position, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the cover plate 330 is spliced ​​and connected with the interior trim plate 500. When in the second rotation limit position, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the cover plate 330 is turned over relative to the interior trim plate 500. In other words, the position where the cover plate 330 rotates to abut against the first limiting structure 501 is the first rotation limit position, and the position where the cover plate 330 rotates to abut against the second limiting structure 502 is the second rotation limit position.

[0136] Specifically, the first limiting structure 501 can accurately limit the cover plate 330 to reach the first rotation limit position, so that the cover plate 330 can be accurately in the preset ideal position when spliced ​​and connected with the interior panel 500, ensuring that the two are closely spliced ​​and flat, forming a beautiful and continuous surface. In this way, from the perspective of the interior of the passenger compartment, the two form a relatively continuous and flat surface without any abrupt gaps or exposed parts, creating a simple and exquisite interior effect. The second limiting structure 502 accurately limits the second rotation limit position of the cover plate 330, ensuring that the cover plate 330 can stop at the correct position every time when it is flipped away from the passenger compartment, improving the accuracy and repeatability of the rotation position of the cover plate 330, and forming a avoidance space on the side of the cover plate 330 facing the passenger compartment, giving full play to the functionality of the space and improving the flexibility of the use of the space in the vehicle. When the cover plate 330 reaches the first rotation limit position or the second rotation limit position, the drive device 304 can be blocked and self-locked, waiting for the next command signal to be issued before starting the movement.

[0137] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle 100 further includes a side panel 400, which is located below the interior panel 500, and the drive device 304 is installed on the side panel 400 through the panel assembly 310. Specifically, the drive device 304 is installed on the side panel 400 through the panel assembly 310, avoiding the noise problem caused by the drive device 304 being exposed to the outside.

[0138] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , Figure 3-Figure 5 , Fig.13 As shown, the vehicle 100 has a passenger compartment, at least one of the two opposite sides of the passenger compartment is provided with an interior panel 500, the transmission shaft 302, the drive device 304 and the plate assembly 310 are arranged on the side of the cover plate 330 away from the passenger compartment, and at the second rotation limit position, the cover plate 330 is flipped in a direction away from the passenger compartment relative to the interior panel 500. Specifically, the transmission shaft 302, the drive device 304 and the plate assembly 310 are arranged on the side of the cover plate 330 away from the passenger compartment, so as to avoid these components occupying precious space resources in the passenger compartment, making the interior space of the passenger compartment more open, regular and tidy, providing a more spacious and comfortable riding environment for the passengers in the vehicle, and also preventing the moving components such as the transmission shaft 302 and the drive device 304 from causing harm to the passengers in the passenger compartment.

[0139] In some embodiments of the present application, the vehicle 100 is a convertible car. Figure 13-14As shown, the vehicle 100 further includes a convertible link 200, which is used to unfold and fold to drive the convertible to move. When the cover plate 330 is at the second rotation limit position, a side of the cover plate 330 facing the convertible link 200 forms an escape space, and the convertible link 200 is suitable for passing through the escape space when moving. Specifically, by forming an escape space when the cover plate 330 is at the second rotation limit position for the convertible link 200 to move through, efficient integration and utilization of the limited space in the vehicle is achieved, avoiding the need to reserve a large amount of additional space for the convertible link 200 alone, improving the overall utilization of the space, and making the functional layout of the vehicle 100 more reasonable and compact.

[0140] In some embodiments, both left and right sides of the passenger compartment are provided with interior panels 500, and the cover plate rotating devices 300 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the interior panel 500 of the vehicle 100. Therefore, during the opening and closing process of the convertible link 200, the cover plate rotating device 300 can achieve space avoidance to prevent the cover plate rotating device 300 and the convertible link 200 from malfunctioning due to collision, specifically preventing the cover plate 330 and the convertible link 200 from malfunctioning due to collision.

[0141] In some embodiments of the present application, the first limiting structure 501 and the second limiting structure 502 are arranged on a side of the interior trim panel 500 facing away from the passenger compartment.

[0142] In some embodiments, when the vehicle 100 receives a command to unfold the convertible, the cover plate rotating device 300 will start to move before the convertible link 200 moves. Figure 1 Move to the position shown Figure 3 In the position shown, the movement of the cover plate 330 will be stopped by the drive device 304 after the cover plate connecting portion 332 hits the second limiting structure 502, and after the cover plate rotating device 300 completes the movement, the convertible connecting rod 200 moves again, the convertible is unfolded, and the passenger compartment is covered. When the vehicle 100 receives the convertible storage command, the cover plate 330 starts to move again after the convertible connecting rod 200 completes the storage. The movement of the cover plate 330 will be stopped by the drive device 304 after the cover plate body 331 hits the first limiting structure 501, and the convertible is stored. The convertible does not cover the passenger compartment.

[0143] In order to implement the above embodiment, the present application also proposes a vehicle cover control method, which is applied to the above vehicle 100, and the method includes responding to a convertible opening command, flipping the cover 330 to the second rotation limit position; responding to a convertible closing command, flipping the cover 330 to the first rotation limit position.
