Detailed implementation manners

[0050] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present application more obvious and understandable, the following detailed description of the specific implementation manners of the present application will be given with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to fully understand the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that if there appear such terms as "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., the orientation or positional relationship indicated by these terms is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present application.

[0052] In addition, if the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of this application, if the term "a plurality" appears, the meaning of "a plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0053] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, if terms such as "installed", "connected", "joined", "fixed", etc. appear, these terms should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly limited. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0054] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, if there is a description such as a first feature being "on" or "under" a second feature, its meaning can be that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over" and "on top of" the second feature can be that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a higher horizontal height than the second feature. The first feature being "under", "beneath" and "underneath" the second feature can be that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a lower horizontal height than the second feature.

[0055] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may also be an intermediate element. If an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. If so, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "up", "down", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this application are only for the purpose of illustration and do not represent the only implementation manner.

[0056] First, combine Figures 1 to 3As shown, considering that during the assembly of the existing sunshade curtain frame, a safety gap d generally needs to be reserved to ensure that the manufacturing tolerances and assembly tolerances of single-piece parts can be absorbed. However, the aforementioned safety gap will cause a step difference at the connection between the guide rail 11 and the cross beam 12, and the conduit on the cross beam 12 and the guide groove of the guide rail 11 will be discontinuous. Moreover, due to the accumulation of various errors, it is easy to cause the coaxiality of the conduit and the guide groove after assembly to not meet the requirements, resulting in frictional abnormal sounds and various failures during the running and sliding of the flexible shaft 530 between the conduit and the guide groove. Specifically, the aforementioned step difference refers to the deviation in the matching of the parting surface positions of two die inserts or the front and rear dies, etc., due to machining accuracy deviations. In this application, it refers to the position deviation between the conduit 700 on the first cross beam 400 and the guide groove 300a of the guide rail assembly 300. Therefore, this application provides a glass assembly 2, a method for manufacturing a glass assembly, and a vehicle, which not only do not cause a step difference at the connection between the guide rail and the cross beam and the problem of discontinuity of the conduit on the cross beam and the guide groove of the guide rail, but also can meet the coaxiality requirements of the hose on the cross beam and the guide groove of the guide rail, avoiding frictional abnormal sounds and various failures during the running and sliding of the flexible shaft 530 between the conduit and the guide groove, and facilitating application and promotion.

[0057] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a glass assembly 2, which may include a glass member 100, a side wrap 200, a guide rail assembly 300, a first cross beam 400, a sunshade curtain assembly 500, and a driving mechanism 600. The side wrap 200 is connected to the glass member 100. The sunshade curtain assembly 500 is slidably connected to the guide rail assembly 300. The driving mechanism 600 is disposed on the first cross beam 400 and connected to the sunshade curtain assembly 500. The driving mechanism 600 is used to drive the sunshade curtain assembly 500 to slide relative to the guide rail assembly 300.

[0058] Combined with Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the side wrap 200, the guide rail assembly 300, and the first cross beam 400 are integrally formed. Among them, the first cross beam 400 is connected to the first end of the guide rail assembly 300. A conduit 700 is embedded in the first cross beam 400. The guide rail assembly 300 is provided with a guide groove 300a. The conduit 700 has a first through hole 700a, and the guide groove 300a has a second through hole a1. The first through hole 700a and the second through hole a1 are coaxially arranged. It should be noted that since the guide rail assembly 300 and the side wrap 200 are integrally formed, in Figure 7 and Figure 8Only the markings of the guide rail assembly 300 are shown. Understandably, the guide rail assembly 300 also serves as the edge wrapping 200 of the glass part 100. Additionally, the aforementioned first through hole 700a is the opening at the end of the conduit 700, and the second through hole a1 is the opening at the end of the guide groove 300a. The coaxial arrangement of the first through hole 700a and the second through hole a1 allows for the splicing of the ends of the conduit 700 and the guide groove 300a with openings, and enables the opening at the end of the conduit 700 and the opening at the end of the guide groove 300a to be coaxially arranged.

[0059] The above glass assembly 2 is integrally formed by the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300, and the first cross beam 400. In this way, the steps of assembling the first cross beam 400 and the guide rail assembly 300 are reduced, and thus there is no need to reserve a safety gap, eliminating the step difference at the connection between the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400. Additionally, through the design that the conduit 700 is embedded in the first cross beam 400 and the first through hole 700a of the conduit 700 is coaxially arranged with the second through hole a1 of the guide groove 300a, the smooth running of the flexible shaft 530 between the conduit 700 and the guide groove 300a can be improved, avoiding friction noise and various failures, and facilitating application and promotion.

[0060] Furthermore, through the integrally formed setting of the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300, and the first cross beam 400 of the above glass assembly 2, the connection structure between the guide rail assembly 300 and the edge wrapping 200 can also be eliminated, such as the locking structure between the guide rail assembly 300 and the edge wrapping 200. Subsequently, the thickness of the edge wrapping 200 in the first direction Z can be reduced, optimizing the space layout. Understandably, the first direction Z can be the direction perpendicular to the glass part 100.

[0061] Optionally, the integrally formed manner of the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300, and the first cross beam 400 can be but is not limited to the integrally injection molding method.

[0062] Specifically, referring to Figure 4 , in the existing technology, the sunshade frame 1 generally locks the guide rail assembly 300 to the edge wrapping 200 of the glass part 100 by locking. This will cause the edge wrapping 200 to require an increased thickness for setting the embedded nut 13, thereby reducing the available space in the first direction Z. However, for the above glass assembly 2 of the present application, the guide rail assembly 300 and the edge wrapping 200 are integrally formed, so that the need for the thickness reserved for assembling the guide rail assembly 300 on the edge wrapping 200 can be reduced, and thus the available space in the first direction Z can be improved.

[0063] On the other hand, the integrally formed setting of the above glass assembly 2 by the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300, and the first cross beam 400 also helps to reduce the number of assembly parts of the glass assembly 2, thereby reducing the cost and time of manufacturing or assembling the components.

[0064] Optionally, the aforementioned driving mechanism 600 may be implemented as, but not limited to, a motor or the like.

[0065] Optionally, the glass member 100 may be implemented as, but not limited to, a sunroof glass, a front windshield, a side window glass, and / or a rear windshield, etc.

[0066] Optionally, in combination Figure 5 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the sunshade curtain assembly 500 includes a flexible shaft 530 and a slider 540. The flexible shaft 530 is connected to the driving mechanism 600. The slider 540 is connected to one end of the flexible shaft 530. The flexible shaft 530 passes through the conduit 700 and the guide groove 300a and enables the slider 540 to be slidably disposed in the guide groove 300a. The driving mechanism 600 is configured to drive the flexible shaft 530 to move along the conduit 700 and the guide groove 300a to drive the slider 540 to move. Among them, the slider 540 is used to connect to the curtain cloth 510, and then drive the curtain cloth 510 to open or close the curtain.

[0067] Specifically, the flexible shaft 530 can perform a linear motion along the extending direction of the conduit 700 and the guide groove 300a under the drive of the driving mechanism 600, and then can pull the slider 540 to slide along the guide groove 300a. It should be noted that in this application, since the guide rail assembly 300 can be made by an integral injection molding method, it can make the material formed by the guide rail assembly 300 softer, which helps to reduce the movement resistance of the flexible shaft 530 and the slider 540 in the guide groove 300a, and reduce the burden and abnormal noise of the driving mechanism 600.

[0068] Optionally, the flexible shaft 530 may have, but not limited to, a tooth-shaped structure, and the aforementioned tooth-shaped structure can be meshed with the gear of the driving mechanism 600, so as to realize the driving mechanism 600 to drive the flexible shaft 530 to perform a linear motion. Specifically, the connection method for the driving mechanism 600 to drive the flexible shaft 530 to move is a conventional setting in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0069] Optionally, referring to Figure 10 , the flexible shaft 530 and the slider 540 can be integrally formed, which helps to improve the structural integrity and stability of the flexible shaft 530 and the slider 540, and prevent the situation where the curtain cloth 510 fails to open and close due to the disconnection of the connection between the flexible shaft 530 and the slider 540.

[0070] Optionally, referring back to Figure 5 and Figure 6, the sunshade assembly 500 may include a curtain cloth 510, a reel 520, a fixed seat 810 and a pull rod 550. The reel 520 is disposed on the glass member 100 through the fixed seat 810. The reel 520 is used for winding or retracting the curtain cloth 510. The curtain cloth 510 has a cloth outlet end. The pull rod 550 is connected to the cloth outlet end and the end of the pull rod 550 is connected to the slider 540. In this way, the pull rod 550 can drive the curtain cloth 510 to open or close the curtain under the driving of the slider 540, so as to improve the stability of the slider 540 driving the curtain cloth 510 to move. It should be noted that the reel 520 is disposed on the glass member 100 through the fixed seat 810, which may mean that the fixed seat 810 can be directly or indirectly fixedly installed relative to the glass member 100, so that the reel 520 can be fixedly installed relative to the glass member 100 through the fixed seat 810. Exemplarily, the fixed seat 810 can be but not limited to directly adhered to the glass member 100, or the fixed seat 810 can be but not limited to locked to the sheet metal part of the vehicle, etc.

[0071] It should be noted that when the glass assembly 2 is configured on a vehicle, the aforementioned first cross beam 400 can be defined according to the front-rear orientation of the vehicle, rather than a specific structural limitation. For example, the first cross beam 400 can be disposed on the front side or the rear side of the vehicle. Adaptively, the reel 520 can be disposed at the first end or the second end of the guide rail assembly 300. It should be noted that the first end and the second end of the aforementioned guide rail assembly 300 are respectively the two ends along the length direction of the guide rail assembly 300. In this way, the glass assembly 2 of the present application can adopt the following 4 layout modes: the driving mechanism 600 is placed in the front and the reel 520 is placed in the rear; the driving mechanism 600 is placed in the front and the reel 520 is placed in the front; the driving mechanism 600 is placed in the rear and the reel 520 is placed in the front; the driving mechanism 600 is placed in the rear and the reel 520 is placed in the rear. This helps to improve the applicability of the glass assembly 2 of the present application.

[0072] It should be noted that the direction parallel to the extending direction of the reel 520 is the second direction Y, and the direction parallel to the extending direction of the guide rail assembly 300 is the third direction X.

[0073] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the glass assembly 2 may further include a second cross beam 800. The second cross beam 800 is connected to the second end of the guide rail assembly 300. The curtain cloth 510 abuts against the second cross beam 800. In this way, in the third direction X, the curtain cloth 510 can be stretched by abutting against the second cross beam 800, so that the curtain cloth 510 is kept in a taut state in the third direction X, thereby improving the winding and unwinding effect of the curtain cloth 510.

[0074] Exemplarily, the aforementioned third direction X can be, but is not limited to, the length direction of the vehicle. Correspondingly, the aforementioned first direction Z can be, but is not limited to, the height direction of the vehicle. The second direction Y can be, but is not limited to, the width direction of the vehicle. Understandably, the vehicle can be, but is not limited to, configured as a vehicle.

[0075] Optionally, the guide rail assembly 300 can include two guide rails. The two ends of the first cross beam 400 are respectively connected to the first ends of the two guide rails, and the second cross beam 800 is respectively connected to the second ends of the two guide rails.

[0076] Optionally, the second cross beam 800 can be, but is not limited to, implemented as a roll-formed metal cross beam or a plastic cross beam, etc.

[0077] Optionally, continue to refer to Figure 5 , two fixing seats 810 can be provided. The two fixing seats 810 are arranged at the second end of the guide rail assembly 300. The fixing seats 810 have third card slots (not shown). The ends of both ends of the reel 520 are respectively clamped in the third card slots of the two fixing seats 810. This helps to achieve the quick disassembly of the reel 520 and improve the assembly simplicity.

[0078] Optionally, the connection method between the fixing seat 810 and the second end of the guide rail assembly 300 can be welding, clamping or bolt connection, etc. In some embodiments, a pre-installed nut (not shown) can be embedded at the second end of the guide rail assembly 300 for the fixing seat 810 to be screwed. This helps to improve the installation simplicity of the fixing seat 810.

[0079] Optionally, the pre-installed nut can be, but is not limited to, integrally formed with the guide rail assembly 300 as an insert, thus achieving the structural integrity of the pre-installed nut and the guide rail assembly 300 and helping to reduce the trouble of post-installing the pre-installed nut. Of course, in some other embodiments, the pre-installed nut can also be fixedly connected to the guide rail assembly 300 in advance by riveting or welding.

[0080] Optionally, referring to Figure 9 as shown, the glass assembly 2 can include a connecting member 900. The connecting member 900 is connected to the guide rail assembly 300. The connecting member 900 is provided with a first connecting portion 910, and the curtain cloth 510 is provided with a second connecting portion 511. The second connecting portion 511 is connected to the first connecting portion 910 so that the curtain cloth 510 is stretched. This helps to keep the curtain cloth 510 in a taut state all the time and improve the winding and unwinding effects of the curtain cloth 510.

[0081] It should be noted that referring back to Figure 6, the curtain cloth 510 can be stretched by abutting against the second cross beam 800, and with the arrangement of the above-mentioned connecting piece 900, this helps to stretch the curtain cloth 510 in all directions on its flattened plane, and then can keep the curtain cloth 510 in a taut state, improving the winding and unwinding effects of the curtain cloth 510.

[0082] Optionally, the connection mode between the second connecting portion 511 and the first connecting portion 910 can be but is not limited to being implemented as snap connection or tying, etc.

[0083] Optionally, in combination with Figure 11 shown, the first connecting portion 910 can include a first card slot 911. Re-combined with Figure 9 shown, the second connecting portion 511 can include a first snap portion 5111, and the first snap portion 5111 is snapped into the first card slot 911, so that the curtain cloth 510 can be connected to the first connecting portion 910 by snap connection, improving the connection simplicity between the curtain cloth 510 and the connecting piece 900.

[0084] Optionally, continuing to combine Figure 9 and Figure 11 shown, the guide rail assembly 300 is further provided with a second card slot 300b, the second card slot 300b is arranged at an interval from the guide slot 300a, the connecting piece 900 is provided with a second snap portion 920, and the second snap portion 920 is snapped into the second card slot 300b, so as to realize the detachable connection between the connecting piece 900 and the guide rail assembly 300, improving the simplicity of detaching the connecting piece 900 from the guide rail assembly 300.

[0085] Optionally, the connecting piece 900 can be integrally injection molded with the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400 as an insert, which helps to improve the structural integrity and stability.

[0086] Of course, in some other embodiments, the connecting piece 900 and the guide rail assembly 300 can be but are not limited to being locked and connected, or the connecting piece 900 is bonded to the guide rail assembly 300.

[0087] Optionally, the aforementioned guide slot 300a and the second card slot 300b can be but are not limited to being arranged in a wedge shape, so that the slider 540 and the second snap portion 920 can be connected by reverse buckling, and the buckling stability is improved.

[0088] Optionally, in combination with Figure 11 shown, the connecting piece 900 and the guide rail assembly 300 are bent in the same direction v, which helps to improve the fitting degree between the connecting piece 900 and the guide rail assembly 300, making the cooperation between the connecting piece 900 and the guide rail assembly 300 closer.

[0089] Optionally, the guide rail assembly 300 is also bent in the same direction v as the glass member 100. In this way, the bending radii of the glass member 100, the guide rail assembly 300 and the connecting member 900 can be kept the same or similar, which helps the guide rail assembly 300 and the connecting member 900 to be arranged more closely on the glass member 100.

[0090] Combined with Figure 12 , according to another aspect of the present application, the present application also provides a method for manufacturing a glass assembly, including the following steps:

[0091] S1. Provide the glass member 100, a prefabricated mold, a sunshade curtain assembly 500, a conduit 700 and a driving mechanism 600.

[0092] S2. Embed the conduit 700 as an insert in a preset position relative to the prefabricated mold. The conduit 700 has a first through hole 700a.

[0093] S3. Inject-mold the glass member 100 through the prefabricated mold to form an integral structure of the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400. The guide rail assembly 300 has a guide groove 300a, and the guide groove 300a has a second through hole a1, and the first through hole 700a and the second through hole a1 are coaxially arranged.

[0094] S4. Assemble the sunshade curtain assembly 500 and the driving mechanism 600 on the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400.

[0095] In the above method for manufacturing a glass assembly, by the step of injecting and molding the glass member 100 through the prefabricated mold to form an integral structure of the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400, the steps of assembling the first cross beam 400 and the guide rail assembly 300 can be reduced. Then, there is no need to reserve a safety gap, and the step difference at the connection between the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400 is eliminated. In addition, by the design of embedding the conduit 700 as an insert in a preset position relative to the prefabricated mold and making the first through hole 700a of the conduit 700 and the second through hole a1 of the guide groove 300a of the guide rail assembly 300 coaxially arranged, it helps to improve the smooth running of the flexible shaft 530 between the conduit 700 and the guide groove 300a, avoids the generation of frictional abnormal sounds and various faults, and is convenient for application and promotion.

[0096] In addition, the step of injecting and molding the glass member 100 through the prefabricated mold to form an integral structure of the edge wrapping 200, the guide rail assembly 300 and the first cross beam 400 in the above method for manufacturing a glass assembly can also eliminate the connection structure between the guide rail assembly 300 and the edge wrapping 200, such as the locking structure between the guide rail assembly 300 and the edge wrapping 200. Then, the thickness of the edge wrapping 200 in the first direction Z can be reduced, and the space layout can be optimized.

[0097] Optionally, after step S2 of "inserting the catheter 700 as an insert into the preset position relative to the prefabricated mold", the following steps may further be included:

[0098] Provide a connecting member 900 and / or an outer hose 1000, and the connecting member 900 and / or the outer hose 1000 are arranged as inserts in the prefabricated mold.

[0099] Specifically, as shown in Figure 9 By arranging the connecting member 900 and / or the outer hose 1000 as inserts in the prefabricated mold, it helps to reduce the steps of installing the connecting member 900 and / or the outer hose 1000 with the guide rail assembly 300, reduce the setting of components for mutual installation, and also helps to improve the installation stability of the connecting member 900 and / or the outer hose 1000 with the guide rail assembly 300.

[0100] Optionally, referring back to Figure 9 , the guide groove 300a has an opening, and the opening can be opened in the first direction Z. Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 9 , the opening of the guide groove 300a can be opened downward. In this way, when demolding the guide rail assembly 300, since the material of the guide rail assembly 300 is relatively soft, it can be forcibly demolded within a certain range in the first direction Z, improving the simplicity of demolding.

[0101] Optionally, in some other embodiments, the opening can be opened in the second direction Y, and in this way, demolding can be performed by side-pulling along the second direction Y.

[0102] According to another aspect of the present application, the present application provides a vehicle, including the above-mentioned glass assembly 2, or including a glass assembly 2 made by the above-mentioned glass assembly manufacturing method.

[0103] The glass assembly 2 of the above-mentioned vehicle is integrally formed by a hemming 200, a guide rail assembly 300, and a first cross beam 400. Among them, the first cross beam 400 is connected to the first end of the guide rail assembly 300, the first cross beam 400 is embedded with a catheter 700, the guide rail assembly 300 is provided with a guide groove 300a, and the design that the first through hole 700a of the catheter 700 is coaxially arranged with the second through hole a1 of the guide groove 300a helps to solve the problem that the coaxiality of the catheter 700 and the guide groove 300a is likely to not meet the requirements after the sunshade curtain frame in the related art is assembled, and then various problems such as frictional abnormal noise and various failures occur during the running and sliding of the flexible shaft 530 between the catheter 700 and the guide groove 300a, which is convenient for application and promotion.
