Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments provided by the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0067] Unless the context requires otherwise, throughout the specification and claims, the term "including" is to be interpreted as an open, inclusive meaning, that is, "including, but not limited to". In the description of the specification, the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "exemplary embodiments", "exemplarily" or "some examples" and the like are intended to indicate that specific features, structures, materials or characteristics associated with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present disclosure. The schematic representation of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. In addition, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be included in any one or more embodiments or examples in any appropriate manner.
[0068] In the following, 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 embodiments of the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.
[0069] When describing some embodiments, the expressions "coupled" and "connected" and their derivatives may be used. For example, when describing some embodiments, the term "connected" may be used to indicate that two or more components are in direct physical or electrical contact with each other.

Therefore, the regions shown in the drawings are schematic in nature, and their shapes are not intended to illustrate the actual shapes of the regions of the device, and are not intended to limit the scope of the exemplary embodiments.
[0072] On the one hand, for example, Figure 1 and Figure 7 In the example of the present invention, a vehicle door assembly 100 is provided, comprising a door handle 2 and a limiting structure 1.
[0073] Specifically, the limiting structure 1 is used to make the door handle 2 hover at a set position so that the door handle 2 is in a non-hidden state relative to the vehicle door 200 .
[0074] For example, the door handle 2 may be a door handle, a car door handle, a window switch door handle, a wardrobe door handle, a locker door handle, etc. The embodiment of the present application does not impose any special restrictions on the specific form of the door handle 2. Figure 1 The middle door handle 2 is illustrated by taking a car door handle as an example.
[0075] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Fig.13 , the door handle 2 is arranged along the length direction of the vehicle 300 (for example, Figure 1 When the door handle 2 does not need to be opened, the door handle 2 is embedded in the vehicle door 200, and one side of the outer surface of the door handle 2 is flush with the outer surface of the vehicle door 200, so that the door handle 2 is hidden relative to the vehicle door 200. The door handle 2 is in a hidden state, which improves the aesthetics of the vehicle door assembly 100.
[0076] When the door handle 2 is needed to open the door, the door handle 2 is moved to cooperate with the limiting structure 1, so that the limiting structure 1 can limit the door handle 2 so that the door handle 2 hovers at the set position.
[0077] The door handle 2 is extended out of the vehicle door 200 through user operation, that is, the door handle 2 protrudes from the outer surface of the vehicle door 200. When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the non-hidden state, the door handle 2 gradually moves until the limiting structure 1 cooperates with the door handle 2. At this time, the external force is removed, and the door handle 2 cannot move without external force. The limiting structure 1 limits the door handle 2, so that the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position, which is convenient for the user to pull the door handle 2 to open the door. The set position can be changed by changing the position of the limiting structure 1. The set position is the position where the door handle 2 can be suspended after being extended, so that the user can pull the door handle 2 to open the vehicle door 200. As a result, it is convenient for the user to operate the door handle 2, improves the user's comfort in opening the door, and is beneficial to the user's experience.
[0078] Specifically, Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, when the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, by pressing one end of the door handle 2 in the length direction, the above end of the door handle 2 can be further embedded into the vehicle door 200, and the other end of the door handle 2 extends out of the vehicle door 200, and the door handle 2 continues to move. When the user feels that the resistance decreases when pressing, the pressure is removed, and the limiting structure 1 cooperates with the door handle 2. The limiting structure 1 limits the door handle 2, so that the door handle 2 cannot be restored to the hidden state without external force, and thus the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position. At this time, the door handle 2 is suspended, which is convenient for the user to perform the next operation on the door handle 2.
[0079] Therefore, by setting the limiting structure 1, the door handle 2 can be suspended at a set position, which is convenient for the user to further operate the door handle 2, improves the reliability of the door handle 2, and is beneficial to the user's experience.
[0080] According to the vehicle door assembly of the present invention, the door handle 2 can be suspended at a set position by setting a limiting structure 1. Therefore, compared with the traditional door handle, the vehicle door assembly 100 has a simple structure, the door handle 2 can be suspended, the reliability is improved, the user is convenient to operate the door handle 2, and the user experience is improved.
[0081] In some embodiments, the door handle 2 is arranged on the vehicle door 200, and the limiting structure 1 includes a first limiting structure 21 and a second limiting structure 11. The first limiting structure 21 is arranged on the door handle 2, and the second limiting structure 11 is arranged on the vehicle door 200. The first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 11 cooperate to make the door handle 2 hover at a set position.
[0082] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first limiting structure 21 is provided at one end in the length direction of the door handle 2. The second limiting structure 11 is provided on the vehicle door 200, and the second limiting structure 11 is located on the side of the first limiting structure 21 away from the door handle 2. When the door handle 2 moves to a set position relative to the vehicle door 200, the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 11 can cooperate to limit the door handle 2, so that the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position, so that the user can further operate the door handle 2 to open the vehicle door 200, thereby improving the user's operating comfort.
[0083] In some embodiments, when the door handle 2 is suspended at a set position, the first limiting structure 21 is clamped on the second limiting structure 11 .
[0084] For example, in Figure 3 and Fig. 9 In the example, when the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, one end of the door handle 2 in the length direction is pressed, and the above-mentioned end of the door handle 2 begins to sink into the vehicle door 200, and the above-mentioned other end of the door handle 2 extends out of the vehicle door 200. The first limiting structure 21 moves under the action of pressure, and when the resistance to pressing the door handle 2 is reduced and the pressure is removed, the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move without the action of external force, and the first limiting structure 21 is locked with the second limiting structure 11, so that the first limiting structure 21 cannot automatically return to the hidden state, so that the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position.
[0085] Therefore, by the mutual clamping between the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 11, the door handle 2 is suspended, and the reliability of the vehicle door assembly 100 is improved, so that the user can further operate the door handle 2.
[0086] In some embodiments, the second limiting structure 11 includes a first clamping member 111 and a second clamping member 112, and a clamping gap 114 is formed between the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112. When the door handle 2 is in the set position, the first limiting structure 21 is clamped in the clamping gap 114. Figure 3-Figure 5 , Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, the first clamping member 111 is located at a side adjacent to the door handle 2, and the second clamping member 112 is located at a side of the first clamping member 111 away from the door handle 2. A clamping gap 114 is formed between the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112.
[0087] When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the above-mentioned one end of the door handle 2 is pressed, so that the door handle 2 begins to extend out of the car door 200. At the same time, the first limiting structure 21 moves with the door handle 2 and enters the clamping gap 114. When the first limiting structure 21 is clamped in the clamping gap 114, the pressure is removed, and the first limiting structure 21 cannot move automatically without external force, and the door handle 2 cannot move automatically either. As a result, the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position, and the door handle 2 is suspended. In this way, the second limiting structure 11 has a simple structure, so that the door handle 2 can be suspended without the need for other driving devices, thereby reducing production costs.
[0088] Furthermore, at least a portion of the width of the retaining gap 114 is smaller than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21 .
[0089] When the width of the clamping gap 114 is greater than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 When the door handle 2 starts to switch from the hidden state to the set position, the first limiting structure 21 can directly pass through the holding gap 114, and after the external force is removed, the door handle 2 can drive the first limiting structure 21 to pass through the holding gap 114, so that the door handle 2 switches to the hidden state, thereby making it impossible to achieve holding between the first limiting structure 21 and the holding gap 114, and the door handle 2 cannot hover at the set position, and the door handle 2 cannot be hovered.
[0090] When the width of at least part of the holding gap 114 is smaller than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21, after the first limiting structure 21 passes through the smallest width portion of the holding gap 114, when the external force is removed, the first limiting structure 21 will be blocked by the holding gap 114, making it impossible for the first limiting structure 21 to continue moving without the action of external force, and the first limiting structure 21 and the holding gap 114 are mutually held, so that the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position, which is convenient for the user to further operate the door handle.
[0091] In some embodiments, at least one of the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112 includes an elastic structure 113. When the first limiting structure 21 enters the clamping gap 114, it can squeeze at least one of the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112, and make at least one of the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112 generate an elastic force directed toward the first limiting structure 21.
[0092] When the first clamping member 111 includes an elastic structure 113 (not shown), the second clamping member 112 does not include an elastic structure 113. At this time, when the first limiting structure 21 moves in the clamping gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 can squeeze the elastic structure 113 of the first clamping member 111, so that the first clamping member 111 undergoes elastic deformation, and the clamping gap 114 can accommodate the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 can move in the clamping gap 114. After the first limiting structure 21 moves to the set position, the external force is removed, and the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move without the external force, and thus the first clamping member 111 cannot be deformed. As a result, the clamping gap 114 clamps the first limiting structure 21, and the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move in the clamping gap 114, so that the door handle 2 hovers at the set position.
[0093] For example, in Figure 3 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 In the example, when the second clamping member 112 includes the elastic structure 113, the first clamping member 111 does not include the elastic structure 113. At this time, the first limiting structure 21 can squeeze the elastic structure 113 of the second clamping member 112 in the clamping gap 114, so that the second clamping member 112 undergoes elastic deformation, and the clamping gap 114 can accommodate the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 can move in the clamping gap 114. After the first limiting structure 21 moves to the set position, the external force is removed, and the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move without the external force, and thus the second clamping member 112 cannot be deformed. As a result, the clamping gap 114 clamps the first limiting structure 21, and the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move in the clamping gap 114, and the door handle 2 hovers at the set position.
[0094] When the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112 both include an elastic structure 113 (not shown), when the first limiting structure 21 moves in the clamping gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 can simultaneously squeeze the elastic structure 113 of the first clamping member 111 and the elastic structure 113 of the second clamping member 112, and the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112 both undergo elastic deformation, and the clamping gap 114 can accommodate the first limiting structure 21, and the first limiting structure 21 can move in the clamping gap 114. When the first limiting structure 21 cannot deform the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112, that is, the first limiting structure 21 is clamped with the clamping gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 cannot move in the clamping gap 114, and the door handle 2 is in the set position.
[0095] Such arrangement enables the first limiting structure 21 to move within the holding gap 114, so that the door handle 2 can switch from a hidden state to a set position. At the same time, the first limiting structure 21 can be held by the holding gap 114, so that the door handle 2 can be in the set position, and the door handle 2 can be suspended. The first limiting structure 21, the first holding component 111 and the second holding component 112 have a simple structure, which is convenient for production and installation, thereby reducing production costs.
[0096] Furthermore, the first clamping member 111 is a rigid member, and the second clamping member 112 includes an elastic structure 113. When the first limiting structure 21 enters the clamping gap 114, it can squeeze the second clamping member 112 and make the second clamping member 112 generate an elastic force directed to the first limiting structure 21.
[0097] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the first clamping member 111 is a rigid member, so the first clamping member 111 will not be elastically deformed. The second clamping member 112 includes an elastic structure 113, so the second clamping member 112 can be elastically deformed.
[0098] Specifically, when the first limiting structure 21 moves in the holding gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 squeezes the second clamping member 112, so that the first limiting structure 21 can move in the holding gap 114, and the door handle 2 can switch from the hidden state to the set position. When the external force is removed and the first limiting structure 21 cannot use its own force to squeeze the elastic structure 113, the second clamping member 112 can block the first limiting structure 21 to prevent the door handle from switching to the hidden state, thereby, the first limiting structure 21 cannot automatically move in the holding gap 114. As a result, the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position, which is conducive to the user to further operate the door handle 2 to unlock, thereby improving the user's experience.
[0099] In some embodiments, Figure 2As shown, the vehicle door assembly 100 further includes a mounting frame 10, and the mounting frame 10 is provided with a second limiting structure 11. The door handle 2 can move relative to the mounting frame 10 to switch between a hidden state and a set position. The mounting frame 10 provides a mounting position for the second limiting structure 11, which is convenient for the installation of the second limiting structure 11 and is conducive to determining the relative position between the second limiting structure 11 and the first limiting structure 21. The door handle 2 moves relative to the mounting frame 10, so that the first limiting structure 21 can be clamped with the second limiting structure 11, so that the door handle 2 can achieve the purpose of opening the door.
[0100] In some embodiments, one end of the retaining gap 114 facing the door handle 2 is opened to form an opening 115 . When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the first limiting structure 21 moves into the retaining gap 114 through the opening 115 .
[0101] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 7 When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the door handle 2 moves along the first direction, and the first limiting structure 21 enters the holding gap 114 through the opening 115. When the first limiting structure 21 is locked with the holding gap 114, the door handle 2 is suspended at the set position. In this way, the movement path of the first limiting structure 21 is limited, ensuring that the first limiting structure 21 can enter the holding gap 114, ensuring that the relative position between the first limiting structure 21 and the second holding member 112 is correct, and improving the reliability of the door assembly 100.
[0102] In some embodiments, after the door handle 2 is in the set position, the door handle 2 can move relative to the mounting bracket 10 to switch to the unlocked state.
[0103] like Figure 3 As shown, when the door handle 2 is in the set position, the user can operate the door handle 2 to switch the door handle 2 to the unlocked state and use the door handle 2 to open the door.
[0104] Specifically, when the door handle 2 is in the set position, the user can pull the door handle 2 to cause the first limiting structure to continue to move in a direction away from the opening, thereby switching the door handle 2 to the unlocked state. Figure 4 As shown, when the door handle 2 is in the unlocked state, the door handle 2 can open the vehicle door 200, and the user can enter the vehicle. Thus, the door handle 2 can be switched from the set position to the unlocked state, so that the user can open the vehicle door 200 normally.
[0105] In some embodiments, the clamping gap 114 includes a first gap section 1141 and a second gap section 1142. The width of the first gap section 1141 is smaller than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21. When the door handle 2 is in the set position, the first limiting structure 21 is clamped in the first gap section 1141. The second gap section 1142 is located on the side of the first gap section 1141 facing away from the opening 115. When the door handle 2 is in the unlocked state, the first limiting structure 21 is located in the second gap section 1142.
[0106] like Figure 3 and Fig. 9 As shown, when the first limiting structure 21 and the second clamping member 112 are clamped with each other, the first limiting structure 21 is located in the first gap section 1141, that is, the set position is located in the first gap section 1141. Among them, the first gap section 1141 is located on the upper side of the second gap section 1142. When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the first limiting structure 21 enters the first gap section 1141 through the opening 115, and after the first limiting structure 21 is clamped with the second clamping member in the first gap section 1141, the door handle 2 hovers at the set position.
[0107] like Figure 1 and 3 , Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, when the first limiting structure 21 switches from the set position to the unlocked state, the user pulls the end of the door handle 2 away from the first limiting structure 21, so that the end of the door handle 2 moves in the direction away from the mounting frame 10, and the other end of the door handle 2 continues to move in the direction close to the mounting frame 10. As a result, the first limiting structure 21 is separated from the second clamping member 112, and the first limiting structure 21 can continue to move from the first gap section 1141 to enter the second gap section 1142. When the door handle 2 switches to the unlocked state, the first limiting structure 21 can contact the unlocking device 3, and the door handle passes and generates a force on the unlocking device 3, so that the unlocking device 3 can open the vehicle door 200.
[0108] In addition, when the door handle is in the set position and there is no need to open the door, the user can press the above-mentioned end of the door handle 2 to cause the first limiting structure 21 to tend to move toward the opening. At this time, the first limiting structure 21 can squeeze the second clamping member 112 under the action of pressure so that the first limiting structure 21 can pass through the first gap section 1141. The first limiting structure 21 moves in the first gap section 1141 toward the direction close to the opening 115 to restore the door handle to a hidden state.
[0109] When the width of the first gap section 1141 is greater than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21, the first limiting structure 21 can directly pass through the first gap section 1141. After the external force is removed, the first gap section 1141 and the first limiting structure 21 still cannot be clamped, and the door handle 2 cannot hover at the set position, and the door handle 2 cannot achieve hovering. When the width of the first gap section 1141 is less than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21, after the first limiting structure 21 reaches the set position, the external force is removed, and the first limiting structure 21 can be clamped on the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move, then the door handle 2 can hover at the set position, and the door handle 2 can achieve hovering.
[0110] With such arrangement, the activity path of the first limiting structure 21 is clear and the structure is simple, which facilitates the movement of the first limiting structure 21 and facilitates the switching of the door handle 2 between the set position and the unlocked state, and enables the door handle 2 to realize the functions of hovering at the set position and opening the door 200, thereby improving the applicability of the door assembly 100.
[0111] The smallest width portion of the clamping gap 114 is within the first gap section 1141, so when the first limiting structure 21 is located at the set position, the first limiting structure 21 is located within the first gap section 1141. It should be noted that the boundary between the first gap section 1141 and the second gap section 1142 is not the smallest width portion of the clamping gap 114.
[0112] In some embodiments, the width of the first gap section 1141 gradually decreases and then gradually increases along the direction from the opening 115 to the second gap section 1142 .
[0113] Reference Figure 1 , the width of one end of the first gap section 1141 close to the opening 115 is wider, so as to facilitate the movement of the first limiting structure 21 after entering the first gap section 1141 and reduce resistance. When the first limiting structure 21 moves to the smallest width portion of the first gap section 1141, the movement resistance increases, and the first limiting structure 21 squeezes the second clamping member under the action of external force, so that the first limiting structure 21 can continue to move, so that the first limiting structure 21 can pass through the smallest width portion of the first gap section 1141. When the first limiting structure 21 reaches the set position, the external force is removed, and the first limiting structure 21 cannot squeeze the second clamping member without external force. The second clamping member is clamped with the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 is suspended at the set position. Therefore, the set position is located on the side of the smallest width portion of the first gap section 1141 away from the opening 115, and the structure is simple, which is convenient for the door handle 2 to achieve suspension.
[0114] In some embodiments, the moving direction of the door handle 2 when switching from the hidden state to the set position is the first direction, and the moving direction of the door handle 2 when switching from the set position to the unlocked state is the second direction. The second direction is consistent with the first direction.
[0115] For example, in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 In the example, when the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, by pressing the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21, the above end of the door handle 2 moves toward the direction close to the second limiting structure 11. The first direction is the direction when the above end of the door handle 2 moves toward the direction close to the second limiting structure 11, or the direction when the other end of the door handle 2 moves toward the direction away from the mounting frame 10.
[0116] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 When the door handle 2 switches from the set position to the unlocked state, the door handle 2 is pulled, and the first limiting structure 21 of the door handle 2 continues to move in the direction of switching from the hidden state to the set position, so that the door handle 2 switches to the unlocked state and the vehicle door 200 is opened. The second direction is the direction in which the end of the door handle 2 away from the first limiting structure 21 moves toward the direction away from the mounting frame 10. It should be noted that when the door handle 2 is in the unlocked state, it is the maximum extent of the door handle 2 extending out of the mounting frame 10.
[0117] With such arrangement, after the door handle 2 is suspended, the vehicle door 200 can be further opened, and the movable direction of the door handle 2 is simple, which is convenient for the user to operate and improves the reliability of the door handle 2.
[0118] In some embodiments, the mounting frame 10 is provided with a groove 12 , the second clamping member 112 is provided in the groove 12 , and a portion of the inner wall of the groove 12 forms the first clamping member 111 .
[0119] like Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the groove 12 is formed by a surface depression of the mounting frame 10. The second clamping member 112 is provided on the side wall of the groove 12. The inner side wall of the groove 12 opposite to the second clamping member 112 forms the first clamping member 111. A clamping gap 114 is formed between the second clamping member 112 and the inner side wall of the groove 12.
[0120] When the first limiting structure 21 enters the holding gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 can squeeze the second holding member 112, so that the first limiting structure 21 can enter the holding gap 114 and be held in the holding gap 114. Thus, the position of the first holding member 111 is fixed, which facilitates the positioning of the second holding member 112, and further facilitates the installation of the second holding member 112 during production, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0121] In some embodiments, the vehicle door assembly 100 further includes an unlocking device 3 . When the door handle 2 is in an unlocking state, it cooperates with the unlocking device 3 to drive the unlocking device 3 to unlock.
[0122] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 The unlocking device 3 is arranged on a side of the second limiting structure away from the door handle 2, and the unlocking device 3 is located at one end of the mounting frame 10 in the length direction.
[0123] like Figure 4 As shown, when the door handle 2 switches from the set position to the unlocked state, one end of the door handle 2 in the length direction can contact the unlocking device 3. At the same time, the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21 applies a force to the unlocking device 3, so that the door handle 2 can drive the unlocking device 3 to unlock, thereby opening the vehicle door 200.
[0124] With such arrangement, the door handle 2 can be switched to an unlocked state, and the door can be opened by driving the unlocking device 3, thus meeting the user's usage requirements, and the structure is simple, thereby reducing production costs.
[0125] The unlocking device 3 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 10, and a torsion spring is provided in the unlocking device 3. When the door handle 2 is in the unlocking state, the door handle 2 applies a force to the unlocking device 3, so that the unlocking device 3 generates an elastic force toward the door handle 2. When the unlocking device 3 completes unlocking, the unlocking device 3 can be reset under the action of the elastic force to facilitate unlocking next time.
[0126] In some embodiments, the vehicle door assembly 100 further includes a rotating shaft 23 , and the door handle 2 can rotate relative to the mounting bracket 10 around the rotating shaft 23 to switch between a hidden state, a set position, and an unlocked state.
[0127] Reference Figure 1-Figure 12 The rotating shaft 23 is disposed between the door handle 2 and the mounting frame 10, connecting the door handle 2 to the mounting frame 10. The door handle 2 can rotate freely around the rotating shaft 23, and the door handle 2 and the mounting frame 10 are relatively fixed. Therefore, when the door handle 2 switches between the hidden state, the set position, and the unlocked state, the door handle 2 can rotate around the rotating shaft 23 to allow the first limiting structure 21 to move within the clamping gap 114. Such a configuration makes the structure of the vehicle door assembly 100 simple, the movement of the door handle 2 is smoother, the texture of the vehicle door assembly 100 is improved, and it is beneficial to the user's experience.
[0128] Furthermore, the movement direction of the door handle 2 when switching from the hidden state to the set position is the first direction, and the movement direction of the door handle 2 when switching from the unlocked state to the hidden state is the third direction. The third direction is opposite to the first direction.
[0129] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the first limiting structure 21 of the door handle 2 moves toward the direction approaching the second limiting structure 11.
[0130] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Fig.10 When the door handle 2 switches from the unlocked state to the hidden state, the end of the door handle 2 away from the first limiting structure 21 begins to move toward the mounting frame 10, and the first limiting structure 21 of the door handle 2 moves toward the direction away from the second limiting structure 11 until the door handle 2 is embedded in the mounting frame 10, thereby switching the door handle 2 to the hidden state. The third direction is the direction in which the end of the door handle 2 away from the first limiting structure 21 moves toward the direction close to the mounting frame 10.
[0131] With such an arrangement, the door handle 2 can avoid accidental opening of the door when it is switched to the hidden state. The door handle 2 has different directions when it switches between different states, thereby improving the reliability of the vehicle door assembly 100.
[0132] In some embodiments, the vehicle door assembly 100 also includes a first elastic member 5, which is connected to the door handle 2. When the door handle 2 is in an unlocked state, the first elastic member 5 applies an elastic force to the door handle 2, and the elastic force is suitable for driving the door handle 2 to switch from an unlocked state to a hidden state.
[0133] Reference Figure 1-Figure 12 , one end of the first elastic member 5 is connected to the door handle 2, the other end of the first elastic member 5 is connected to the mounting bracket 10, and the first elastic member 5 is coaxial with the rotating shaft 23 of the door handle 2. When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21 moves toward the direction close to the second limiting structure 11, and drives the first elastic member 5 to undergo elastic deformation, so that the first elastic member 5 generates an elastic force. When the door handle 2 switches from the set position to the unlocked state, the door handle 2 further rotates, further drives the first elastic member 5 to undergo elastic deformation, so that the first elastic member 5 generates an elastic force.
[0134] Specifically, when the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21 is pressed, so that the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21 is sunk into the mounting frame 10, and the other end of the door handle 2 extends out of the mounting frame 10. At the same time, the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21 begins to rotate, and the first limiting structure 21 enters the clamping gap 114 through the opening 115 until the first limiting structure 21 is clamped by the second clamping member 112, so that the door handle 2 switches to the set position. In this process, the elastic force generated by the first elastic member 5 gradually increases.
[0135] When the door handle 2 is switched from the set position to the unlocked state, the other end of the door handle 2 is pulled to move the other end of the door handle 2 in a direction away from the mounting frame 10. As a result, the door handle 2 continues to rotate, the first elastic member 5 continues to produce elastic deformation, and the elastic force generated by the first elastic member 5 further increases. When the door handle 2 is switched to the unlocked state, the user releases the other end of the door handle 2, and the door handle 2 starts to switch from the unlocked state to the hidden state. At this time, the user does not control the door handle, and the door handle 2 starts to rotate under the action of the elastic force of the first elastic member 5, that is, the first elastic member 5 starts to reset under the action of the elastic force, so that the door handle 2 moves along the third direction until the door handle 2 is switched to the hidden state.
[0136] As a result, the door handle 2 can be switched between the hidden state, the set position and the unlocked state without the need for other driving devices, thereby simplifying the structure of the vehicle door assembly 100 and improving reliability.
[0137] The door handle 2 is provided with a mounting portion 24, and the mounting portion 24 is provided on a side of the door handle 2 close to the second limiting structure 11. The first elastic member 5 is connected to the mounting portion 24.
[0138] Furthermore, the first elastic member 5 comprises a torsion spring. Figure 1-Figure 12 As shown, when the first elastic member 5 is a torsion spring, the spring portion of the torsion spring is connected to the door handle 2, and one end of the torsion spring is connected to the mounting bracket 10. The friction between the torsion spring and the door handle 2 is small. The torsion spring has a large elastic energy stored per unit volume, a high degree of adjustment, a small spring mass, a simple structure, and reduces the mass of the door assembly 100.
[0139] In some embodiments, the elastic structure 113 includes a fixing portion 1131 and an elastic arm portion 1132 , the fixing member 21 is fixed to the mounting frame 10 , and the clamping gap 114 is formed between the first clamping member 111 and the elastic arm portion 1132 .
[0140] Reference Figure 5The fixing portion 1131 is located at one end of the elastic structure 113, and the fixing portion 1131 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 10, so that the elastic structure 113 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 10 to prevent the elastic structure 113 from being displaced. The elastic arm portion 1132 is located on the mounting frame 10. The gap between the elastic arm portion 1132 and the first clamping member 111 is the clamping gap 114.
[0141] When the first limiting structure 21 moves in the holding gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 can squeeze the elastic arm portion 1132, causing the elastic arm portion 1132 to deform, so that the first limiting structure 21 can move in the holding gap 114. When the first limiting structure 21 cannot squeeze the elastic arm portion 1132, the first limiting structure 21 cannot continue to move in the holding gap 114, and the first limiting structure 21 is stuck with the holding gap 114, so that the door handle 2 is in a set position, and the door handle 2 is suspended.
[0142] With such a configuration, when the first limiting structure 21 moves in the holding gap 114, the elastic structure 113 is fixed and does not move, thereby ensuring that the position of the holding gap 114 formed between the elastic structure 113 and the first holding member 111 is fixed, so that the first limiting structure 21 can be normally held in the holding gap 114. Thus, the reliability of the second limiting structure 11 is improved, the service life of the second limiting structure 11 is extended, and the user experience is beneficial.
[0143] In some embodiments, the elastic arm portion 1132 includes a protrusion 1132a, the gap between the protrusion 1132a and the first clamping member 111 is smaller than the cross-sectional width of the first limiting structure 21, and the protrusion 1132a is located in the first clamping gap 114 section.
[0144] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the protrusion 1132a is located in the middle of the elastic arm. The gap width between the protrusion 1132a and the first clamping member 111 is the minimum width of the first gap section 1141. Therefore, when the first limiting structure 21 passes through the protrusion 1132a, the first limiting structure 21 needs to squeeze the protrusion 1132a to make the protrusion 1132a elastically deformed, and the first limiting structure 21 can pass through the protrusion 1132a. When the first limiting structure 21 reaches the set position, the external force is removed, and the first limiting structure 21 is reset under the action of the first elastic member 5. At this time, the first limiting structure 21 cannot squeeze the protrusion 1132a without the action of external force, and thus cannot pass through the protrusion 1132a. The protrusion 1132a blocks the movement of the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 is suspended at the set position, thereby realizing the suspension of the door handle 2.
[0145] Such an arrangement makes the elastic structure 113 simple in structure, is conducive to production and installation, saves costs, and is convenient for users to operate.
[0146] Furthermore, the elastic structure 113 is a spring sheet. Figure 3 As shown, the structure of the spring sheet occupies a small space, and when the first limiting structure 21 passes, the contact area between the spring sheet and the first limiting structure 21 is large, which is convenient for squeezing the first limiting structure 21. When the first limiting structure 21 is clamped in the clamping gap 114, the spring sheet can enhance the clamping effect on the first limiting structure 21, and enhance the reliability of the door handle 2 when it is in the set position.
[0147] In some embodiments, a return curved surface is provided on a side of the first clamping member 111 facing away from the second clamping member 112, and a return gap 117 is formed between the return curved surface 116 and the first clamping member 111, and the return gap 117 is connected to the second gap section 1142. After the door handle 2 is in the unlocked state, the first limiting structure 21 can move along the return gap 117 to switch to the hidden state.
[0148] For example, in Figure 2 In the example of FIG. 1 , the return curved surface 116 extends along the shape of the edge of the first clamping member 111. The return gap 117 is connected to one end of the second gap section 1142, so that the door handle 2 can be directly switched to the hidden state in the unlocked state.
[0149] Specifically, when the door handle 2 switches from the unlocked state to the hidden state, the end of the door handle 2 away from the first limiting structure 21 gradually moves toward the mounting frame 10, and the first limiting structure 21 moves along the return gap 117. The return curved surface 116 limits the movement trajectory of the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 moves fixedly along the return gap 117, preventing the first limiting structure 21 from deflecting, so as to ensure that the door handle 2 can be smoothly switched to the hidden state.
[0150] Therefore, the moving path of the first limiting structure 21 is clear, which prevents the moving track of the first limiting structure 21 from being offset, thereby improving the reliability of the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 11.
[0151] Further, the groove 12 includes a first groove portion 121 and a second groove portion 122 , and a portion of the mounting frame 10 located between the first groove portion 121 and the second groove portion 122 forms a partition 123 .
[0152] The partition 123 forms the first clamping member 111 , the second clamping member 112 is disposed in the first groove portion 121 , and a portion of the inner side wall of the second groove portion 122 opposite to the partition 123 forms a return curved surface 116 .
[0153] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 The first groove portion 121 and the second groove portion 122 are respectively located on both sides of the groove 12 and extend along the length direction of the groove 12. The first groove portion 121 is connected to the second groove portion 122. The second clamping member 112 is arranged on the side of the first groove portion 121 opposite to the partition 123. The return curved surface 116 is formed on the inner side wall of the second groove portion 122 opposite to the partition 123. Thus, the clamping gap 114 is located in the first groove portion 121, and the return gap 117 is located in the second groove portion 122.
[0154] When the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, the first limiting structure 21 can enter the first groove part 121 through the opening 115, and when the first limiting structure 21 is engaged with the engaging gap 114, the door handle 2 switches to the set position. When the door handle 2 switches from the set position to the unlocked state, the door handle 2 is pulled so that the first limiting structure 21 continues to move in the first groove part 121 until the door handle 2 switches to the unlocked state. When the door handle 2 switches from the unlocked state to the hidden state, the first limiting structure 21 enters the second groove part 122 to move along the return gap 117 until the door handle 2 switches to the hidden state.
[0155] In this way, the groove 12 further limits the moving path of the first limiting structure 21 , so that the door handle 2 can smoothly switch between the hidden state, the set position and the unlocked state, thereby improving the reliability of the door assembly 100 .
[0156] In some embodiments, a second elastic member 22 is connected between the first limiting structure 21 and the door handle 2. When the first limiting structure 21 moves along the clamping gap 114, the second elastic member 22 is in a deformed state to apply an elastic force directed toward the return gap 117 to the first limiting structure 21.
[0157] For example, in Figure 1-Figure 12 In the example, one end of the second elastic member 22 is connected to the first limiting structure 21, and the other end of the second elastic member 22 is connected to the door handle 2. When the door handle 2 is switched from the hidden state to the set position, when the first limiting structure 21 moves along the holding gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 squeezes the second holding member 112. At the same time, the second elastic member 22 also undergoes elastic deformation toward the second holding member 112, providing a force for the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 can continue to squeeze the second holding member 112, ensuring that the first limiting structure 21 moves in the holding gap 114, until the first limiting structure 21 is clamped in the holding gap 114, and the door handle 2 is switched to the set position.
[0158] When the door handle 2 switches from the set position to the unlocked state, the door handle 2 is pulled to separate the first limiting structure 21 from the second holding member, and the first limiting structure 21 continues to move. At this time, the second elastic member 22 is still in a deformed state. At the same time, the end of the door handle 2 close to the first limiting structure 21 begins to contact the unlocking device 3, and the door handle 2 switches to the unlocked state. The door handle 2 presses the unlocking device 3 to unlock the door 200, and the door 200 opens. When the door 200 is opened, the second elastic member 22 restores the elastic deformation, and the second elastic member 22 applies an elastic force directed to the return gap 117 to the first limiting structure 21, so that the first limiting structure 21 enters the return gap 117 from the holding gap 114. As a result, the first limiting structure 21 begins to move along the return gap 117, so that the door handle 2 switches from the unlocked state to the hidden state.
[0159] Such arrangement enables the door handle 2 to switch from an unlocked state to a hidden state after the vehicle door 200 is opened, so that the door handle 2 can be hidden and closed after the door is closed, which is beneficial to improving the user experience and enhancing the market competitiveness of the vehicle 300.
[0160] Exemplarily, the second elastic member 22 may be a spring, a spring, a torsion spring, a rubber band, a rubber strip, etc.
[0161] In some embodiments, the return gap 117 is located between the clamping gap 114 and the shaft 23. When the first limiting structure 21 moves along the clamping gap 114, the second elastic member 22 is in a bending deformation state away from the shaft 23 to apply an elastic force to the first limiting structure 21 directed toward the return gap 117.
[0162] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 The clamping gap 114 is located on the side of the return gap 117 facing away from the door handle 2. When the first limiting structure 21 moves along the clamping gap 114, the second elastic member 22 will bend and deform in the direction close to the second first limiting structure 21 because the center of the clamping gap 114 is not concentric with the rotating shaft 23.
[0163] When the door handle 2 needs to be switched from the unlocked state to the hidden state, the first limiting structure 21 moves from the holding gap 114 to the return gap 117. During this process, the second elastic member is not affected by external force, the second elastic member 22 begins to restore elastic deformation, and the second elastic member begins to release elastic force and applies elastic force pointing to the return gap 117 to the first limiting structure 21. Under the action of the elastic force of the second elastic member 22, the first limiting structure 21 enters the return gap 117 and begins to move along the return gap 117 in the third direction until the door handle 2 is switched to the hidden state.
[0164] Such an arrangement enables the door handle 2 to switch from an unlocked state to a hidden state after the door is closed, which reduces the operations performed by the user and helps to improve the user experience.
[0165] In some optional embodiments, the holding gap 114 is located between the return gap 117 and the rotating shaft 23 (not shown). That is, the positions of the holding gap 114 and the return gap 117 can be swapped to achieve the switching of the door handle between the hidden state, the set position and the unlocked state.
[0166] It should be noted that the center of the circle of the clamping gap 114 and the center of the circle of the return gap 117 are not concentric with the rotating shaft 23. When the first limiting structure 21 moves in the clamping gap 114 and the return gap 117, the first limiting structure 21 cannot move with the rotating shaft 23 as the center. During the movement, the second elastic member 22 increases the deformation during the movement of the first limiting structure 21 to ensure that the first limiting structure 21 can move along the clamping gap 114 and the return gap 117, thereby improving the reliability of the first limiting structure 21 when switching between the clamping gap 114 and the return gap 117.
[0167] In some other embodiments, the second clamping member 112 further includes a rotating portion 1121 and a clamping portion body 1122 .
[0168] Specifically, the rotating part 1121 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 10 , the elastic structure 113 is connected between the rotating part 1121 and the mounting frame 10 , the clamping part body 1122 is disposed on the rotating part 1121 , and the clamping gap 114 is formed between the first clamping piece 111 and the clamping part body 1122 .
[0169] For example, in Figure 9-11 In the example, the rotating portion 1121 is circular in shape, and the clamping portion body 1122 is arranged in the circumference of the rotating portion 1121. The clamping portion body 1122 has a curved portion 1123 arched toward the first clamping member 111, and a clamping gap 114 is formed between the curved portion 1123 and the first clamping member 111. The curved portion 1123 abuts against the first clamping member 111. The elastic structure 113 is arranged on a side of the rotating portion 1121 away from the first clamping member 111, one end of the elastic structure 113 is connected to the rotating portion 1121, and the other end of the elastic structure 113 is connected to the mounting frame 10.
[0170] When the first limiting structure 21 moves and contacts the clamping body 1122, the first limiting structure 21 can push the clamping body 1122. When the clamping body 1122 is pushed, the clamping body 1122 can drive the rotating part 1121 to rotate, so that the first limiting structure 21 can pass through the clamping gap 114.
[0171] Specifically, when the door handle 2 switches from the hidden state to the set position, one end of the door handle 2 in the length direction is pressed, so that the above end of the door handle 2 extends into the mounting frame 10, and the other end of the door handle 2 in the length direction extends from the mounting frame 10, and the door handle 2 starts to move along the first direction. When the first limiting structure 21 enters the clamping gap 114, the first limiting structure 21 pushes the clamping part body 1122, and the clamping part body 1122 drives the rotating part 1121 body to rotate in a direction away from the first clamping member 111, thereby increasing the width of the clamping gap 114 between the clamping part body 1122 and the first clamping member 111, and the first limiting structure 21 can pass through the curved portion 1123 of the clamping part body 1122.
[0172] At the same time, when the rotating part 1121 rotates, a pulling force is generated on the elastic structure 113, causing the elastic structure 113 to deform, and the elastic structure 113 generates an elastic force directed to the elastic structure 113 itself. When the first limiting structure 21 passes through the curved part 1123, the thrust of the first limiting structure 21 on the clamping part body 1122 disappears, and the rotating part 1121 rotates in the direction close to the first clamping member 111 under the action of the elastic force of the elastic structure 113, and the clamping part body 1122 returns to the position where the curved part 1123 and the first clamping member 111 abut. At this time, the first limiting structure 21 cannot move in the first direction, and the clamping gap 114 also prevents the first limiting structure 21 from moving in the direction opposite to the first direction. As a result, the clamping gap 114 is clamped with the first limiting structure 21, and the door handle 2 is in the set position.
[0173] With such arrangement, the door handle 2 can be suspended, has a simple structure, does not require other driving devices, reduces production costs, and improves the user experience.
[0174] In some embodiments, after the door handle 2 is in the unlocked state, the first limiting structure 21 can move along the retaining gap 114 toward the opening 115 to switch to the hidden state.
[0175] For example, in Figure 9-10 In the example, when the door handle 2 is switched from the unlocked state to the hidden state, the first limiting structure 21 still returns along the holding gap 114, and the first limiting structure 21 moves along the third direction, so that the first limiting structure 21 can move out of the holding gap 114 through the opening 115, thereby switching the door handle 2 to the hidden state.
[0176] In summary, the door handle 2 can be switched to a hidden state after the door is closed, and the door handle 2 is embedded in the mounting frame 10, so that the door handle 2 is hidden, thereby improving the safety and aesthetics of the vehicle door assembly 100. At the same time, the door handle 2 only returns along the clamping gap 114, so that the structure of the vehicle door assembly 100 is simple, and the space occupied by the vehicle door assembly 100 is reduced.
[0177] In some embodiments, the mounting frame 10 is provided with a groove 12 , the second clamping member 112 is provided in the groove 12 , and a portion of the inner wall of the groove 12 forms the first clamping member 111 .
[0178] like Figure 7-Figure 12 As shown, the groove 12 is formed by a depression on the surface of the mounting frame 10. A portion of the side wall of the groove 12 on the side close to the rotating shaft 23 forms a first clamping member 111, and the portion of the side wall extends along an arc around the rotating shaft 23. The groove 12 provides an installation space for the second limiting structure, saving the space occupied by the door assembly 100. At the same time, the groove 12 provides a positioning for the installation of the second clamping member 112, which facilitates the rapid installation of the second clamping member 112 and improves the installation efficiency.
[0179] In addition, a positioning portion 124 is provided on the side wall of the groove 12 opposite to the first clamping member 111, and the positioning portion 124 is formed by the protrusion of the side wall of the groove 12. One end of the elastic structure 113 is connected to the side wall, and the other end of the elastic structure 113 is connected to the body of the rotating portion 1121.
[0180] In some embodiments, the door assembly 100 further includes a driving member 4, which is transmission-connected to the first clamping member 111 and / or the second clamping member 112, and is used to drive the second clamping member 112 and / or the second clamping member 112 to move to increase the width of the first gap section 1141.
[0181] Reference Figure 7-Figure 12 , the driving member 4 can be connected only to the first clamping member 111. Or, the driving member 4 can be connected only to the second clamping member 112. Or, the driving member 4 can be connected to both the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112 at the same time.
[0182] When the driving member 4 is connected only to the second clamping member 112, when the driving member 4 is working, it can drive the rotating part 1121 to rotate in the direction away from the first clamping member 111, and at the same time drive the clamping part body 1122 to rotate, so that the clamping part body 1122 also rotates in the direction away from the first clamping member 111. As a result, the width between the clamping part body 1122 and the first clamping member 111 is increased, and the first limiting structure 21 is separated from the clamping part body 1122. The first limiting structure 21 can pass through the first gap section 1141 and move toward the opening 115, so that the door handle 2 is switched from the unlocked state to the hidden state.
[0183] Such an arrangement enables the first limiting structure 21 to move in the first direction, the second direction and the third direction within the holding gap 114, thereby completing the switching of the door handle 2 between the hidden state, the set position and the unlocked state, making the structure of the hovering door handle 2 simple and improving reliability.
[0184] The boundary between the first gap section 1141 and the second gap section 1142 is not the contact point between the clamping body 1122 and the first clamping member 111. The setting position of the door handle 2 is located on the side of the clamping body 1122 away from the opening 115 and is located in the first gap section 1141.
[0185] Furthermore, the drive member 4 includes a door lock safety drive device 41, which is transmission-connected to the first clamping member 111 and / or the second clamping member 112. When the door lock safety drive device 41 switches from the unlatched state to the upward safety state, it can drive the second clamping member 112 and / or the second clamping member 112 to move so as to increase the width of the first gap section 1141.
[0186] For example, in Figure 7-Figure 12 In the example, the door lock safety driving device 41 is used to insure the door lock. When the door lock safety driving device 41 is in the unsafe state, the door 200 can be opened by driving the unlocking device 3 through the door handle 2, so that the passenger can enter the vehicle. When the door lock safety driving device 41 is in the safe state, the door 200 cannot be opened and the passenger cannot enter the vehicle.
[0187] The door lock safety drive device 41 may be connected only to the first clamping member 111. Alternatively, the door lock safety drive device 41 may be connected only to the second clamping member 112. Alternatively, the door lock safety drive device 41 may be connected to both the first clamping member 111 and the second clamping member 112.
[0188] When the door lock safety drive device 41 is only connected to the second clamping member 112, the door lock safety drive device 41 can drive the second clamping member 112 to move, causing the rotating part 1121 to rotate, thereby increasing the width of the first gap section 1141 so that the first limiting structure 21 can pass through the first gap section 1141.
[0189] Specifically, when the vehicle door 200 is opened and closed again, the door lock safety driving device 41 switches from the unlocked state to the upper safety state, driving the rotating portion 1121 to rotate in a direction away from the first clamping member 111, and the clamping portion body 1122 also rotates in a direction away from the first clamping member 111. As a result, the width of the first gap section 1141 is increased, and the first limiting structure 21 can directly pass through the first gap section 1141 and move toward the direction of the opening 115, so that the door handle 2 is switched from the unlocked state to the hidden state.
[0190] With such arrangement, the door handle 2 can be switched to a hidden state after the door lock is secured, thereby realizing the closing of the door handle 2 with the lock. When the user opens the vehicle door 200, the door handle 2 can be hidden without further operation, thereby improving the user experience, making the vehicle door assembly 100 simple in structure, highly reliable, and improving the texture of the vehicle door assembly 100.
[0191] The second clamping member 112 further includes a connecting portion 1124, which is arranged on the circumference of the rotating portion 1121. The door lock safety driving device 41 is connected to the connecting portion 1124 through a lead wire. When the door lock safety driving device 41 switches from the unlocked state to the on-safety state, the door lock safety driving device 41 pulls the connecting portion 1124 through the lead wire, so that the second clamping member 112 rotates.
[0192] When the door needs to be opened, the door lock safety driving device 41 is switched from the safety-on state to the safety-off state. Subsequently, the door lock safety driving device 41 releases the lead wire, so that the second clamping member 112 is reset, and the bent portion 1123 of the clamping portion body 1122 abuts against the first clamping member 111, so that the door handle 2 starts to switch from the hidden state to the set position, so as to ensure that the clamping gap 114 between the clamping portion body 1122 and the first clamping member 111 clamps the first limiting structure 21. In this way, the door handle 2 can be closed with the lock, and the door handle 2 can be suspended, so that the vehicle door assembly 100 has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and improves the user experience.
[0193] In addition, the vehicle door assembly 100 further includes a damper 6, one end of which is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 10 via a damping stopper 61, and the other end of the damper 6 is rotatably connected to the door handle 2. The damping stopper 61 is disposed on a side of the first elastic member 5 away from the second limiting structure 11. When the door handle 2 rotates, the other end of the damper 6 and the one end of the damper 6 generate relative motion, generating resistance, providing a buffer for the rotation of the door handle 2, and improving the movement texture of the door handle 2 when switching between the hidden state, the set position, and the unlocked state. When the door handle 2 rotates, the damping stopper 61 can block the door handle 2, limit the door handle 2, and prevent the door handle 2 from rotating beyond the maximum degree of rotation.
[0194] On the other hand, Fig.13 As shown, the present invention provides a vehicle door 200 , comprising the above vehicle door assembly 100 .
[0195] According to the vehicle door 200 of the embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle door assembly 100 as described above is adopted to open the vehicle door 200, and the door handle 2 can be suspended and closed with the lock, which is convenient for user operation. The vehicle door assembly 100 has a simple structure and high reliability, which is conducive to improving the user experience.
[0196] In some embodiments, the vehicle door 200 further includes a door body, and the vehicle door assembly 100 is disposed on the door body for opening the vehicle door 200 so that the driver or passenger can enter the vehicle. The vehicle door assembly 100 is in a hidden state when not in use, which improves the aesthetics of the vehicle door 200, simplifies operation, and improves reliability.
