[0037] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth many specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the scope of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0038] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides a side window assembly 10, which includes a side window locking mechanism 11 and a vehicle window glass 12. Specifically, the side window locking mechanism 11 is connected between the vehicle window glass 12 and the vehicle body.

[0039] The vehicle body may be provided with interior trim 13, a frame or sheet metal, etc.

[0040] Specifically, the side window locking mechanism 11 includes a mounting bracket 111, a fixed base 112, a locking block 113, and an unlocking assembly 114. The mounting bracket 111 is connected to one end of the vehicle window glass 12. The other end of the vehicle window glass 12, opposite the mounting bracket 111, is pivotally connected to the vehicle body. More specifically, the other end of the vehicle window glass 12, opposite the mounting bracket 111, is pivotally connected to the interior trim 13. Of course, the other end of the vehicle window glass 12, opposite the mounting bracket 111, could also be pivotally connected to, for example, a frame or sheet metal. Therefore, when force is applied to the end of the vehicle window glass 12 where the mounting bracket 111 is located, the vehicle window glass 12 can be driven to open or close accordingly.

[0041] Among them, the end of the window glass 12 connected to the mounting bracket 111 is, for example, Figure 1 or Figure 2 The right end of the window glass 12 is as shown in FIG. Figure 1 or Figure 2 The opening and closing directions of the window glass 12 are as follows: Figure 1 or Figure 2 As shown by the double arrow M in the middle.

[0042] For example, a handle 14 is provided on one end of the vehicle window glass 12 connected to the mounting bracket 111 , and the handle 14 can be used to facilitate pushing and pulling the vehicle window glass 12 to open or close the vehicle window glass 12 .

[0043] The fixed base 112 is used to connect to the vehicle body, specifically to the interior trim 13, frame, or sheet metal of the vehicle body. This embodiment specifically uses the fixed base 112 connected to the interior trim 13 as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this. The fixed base 112 is provided with a reset member 1121.

[0044] See also Figures 7 to 11 The locking block 113 is connected to the fixed base 112 via a reset member 1121. The locking block 113 has an unlocking position and a locking position and can switch between the unlocking position and the locking position. Figures 7 to 9 When the lock block 113 is in the unlocked position, the mounting bracket 111 is unlocked, and the mounting bracket 111 can be pushed and pulled along the opening and closing direction of the window glass 12 to open or close the window glass 12; please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 When the locking block 113 is in the locking position, the locking block 113 can lock the mounting bracket 111, thereby fixing the position of the vehicle window glass 12 after it is fully opened or after it is closed.

[0045] The unlocking assembly 114 is used to connect to the vehicle body, and specifically can be connected to the interior part 13, frame or sheet metal of the vehicle body. In this embodiment, the unlocking assembly 114 is specifically connected to the interior part 13 as an example, but it is not limited to this. The unlocking assembly 114 is connected to the lock block 113, and the unlocking assembly 114 is used to switch the lock block 113 from the locked position to the unlocked position. Figure 10 or Figure 5 and Figure 6 Switch the position shown to Figure 7 or Figure 3 and Figure 4 When the unlocking assembly 114 is released, the reset member 1121 enables the locking block 113 to be switched from the unlocked position to the locked position, as shown Figure 7 or Figure 3 and Figure 4 Switch the position shown to Figure 10 or Figure 5 and Figure 6 Position shown.

[0046] The interior trim 13 is located on the side of the window glass 12 facing the interior of the vehicle body, providing both protection and decoration around the edges of the window glass 12. Furthermore, the interior trim 13 surrounds the edges of the window glass 12, with a hollowed-out center, thus preventing obstruction of the view through the window glass 12.

[0047] For example, the interior trim component 13 may be fixedly connected to the vehicle body or formed integrally therewith.

[0048] It should be noted that the "interior decoration part 13" in this embodiment can be "part of the vehicle body", that is, the "interior decoration part 13" and the "other parts of the vehicle body" are manufactured as one piece; it can also be an independent component that can be separated from the "other parts of the vehicle body", that is, the "interior decoration part 13" can be manufactured independently and then combined with the "other parts of the vehicle body" into a whole.

[0049] When the side window locking mechanism 11 is installed in a vehicle and used, when the window glass 12 needs to be opened or closed, the locking block 113 is first switched from the locked position to the unlocked position by the unlocking assembly 114, thereby unlocking the mounting bracket 111. The position of the mounting bracket 111 can then be adjusted by pushing or pulling along the opening and closing direction of the window glass 12, and the window glass 12 can be opened or closed when the mounting bracket 111 is moved. After the window glass 12 is opened or closed, the unlocking assembly 114 is released, and the reset member 1121 switches the locking block 113 from the unlocked position to the locked position, and the locking block 113 can correspondingly lock the mounting bracket 111, thereby fixing the position of the window glass 12. As can be seen, the overall structure of the side window locking mechanism 11 is simpler than that of a butterfly window buckle. At the same time, the length of the mounting bracket 111 along the opening and closing direction of the window glass 12 can be adjusted to adjust the maximum opening distance of the window glass 12, that is, to adjust the maximum opening angle of the window glass 12.

[0050] It can be understood that when the maximum opening distance or angle of the vehicle window glass 12 needs to be increased, the length of the mounting bracket 111 along the opening and closing direction of the vehicle window glass 12 is correspondingly increased; conversely, when the maximum opening distance or angle of the vehicle window glass 12 needs to be reduced, the length of the mounting bracket 111 along the opening and closing direction of the vehicle window glass 12 is correspondingly reduced.

[0051] For example, the length of the mounting bracket 111 along the opening and closing direction of the vehicle window glass 12 is adjustable. In this way, by adjusting the length of the mounting bracket 111 along the opening and closing direction of the vehicle window glass 12, the maximum opening distance or angle of the vehicle window glass 12 can be adjusted accordingly.

[0052] See also Figures 7 to 9For example, the mounting bracket 111 includes a plurality of locking portions 1111 sequentially arranged along the opening and closing direction of the vehicle window glass 12. Each locking portion 1111 can be locked with a locking block 113. Thus, when the vehicle window glass 12 is rotated to different positions, the locking portions 1111 at corresponding positions can be locked and fixed together with the locking block 113, thereby achieving locking and fixing of the vehicle window glass 12 when rotated to different positions.

[0053] The number of locking portions 1111 includes, but is not limited to, two, three, four, or more, and can be flexibly adjusted and configured based on actual needs. In this embodiment, two locking portions 1111 are used as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Specifically, the two locking portions 1111 correspond to the closed position and the fully open position of the vehicle window glass 12, respectively. Therefore, when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed position or the fully open position, the corresponding locking portion 1111 engages with the locking block 113 to lock and secure the position of the vehicle window glass 12.

[0054] For example, there are two locking portions 1111, and the distance between the two locking portions 1111 is adjustable. Thus, by adjusting the distance between the two locking portions 1111, the maximum opening distance or angle of the vehicle window glass 12 can be adjusted accordingly. Specifically, increasing the distance between the two locking portions 1111 increases the maximum opening distance or angle of the vehicle window glass 12; conversely, decreasing the distance between the two locking portions 1111 decreases the maximum opening distance or angle of the vehicle window glass 12.

[0055] Optionally, the locking portion 1111 includes but is not limited to a stop shaft, a stop rod, a stop sheet or a stop block, etc. In order to facilitate locking with the locking block 113 and ensure locking stability, the locking portion 1111 in this embodiment is preferably provided with a stop shaft.

[0056] For example, locking portion 1111 serves as a stop shaft. Locking block 113 is formed with a locking recess 1131, which is recessed in a direction away from the stop shaft. Locking recess 1131 engages with the stop shaft in a locking manner. Thus, when locking block 113 is in the locked position, the stop shaft enters locking recess 1131, and locking block 113 accordingly locks mounting bracket 111. When unlocking assembly 114 drives locking block 113 to the unlocked position, away from mounting bracket 111, the stop shaft disengages from locking recess 1131, thereby unlocking mounting bracket 111.

[0057] Optionally, the locking recess 1131 is configured to conform to the shape of the stop shaft. This provides greater stability within the stop shaft, thereby improving the positional stability of the window glass 12. The stop shaft has a circular axial cross-sectional profile, and the locking recess 1131 is correspondingly configured as an arc-shaped recess.

[0058] For example, at least two locking recesses 1131 are provided, and a positioning protrusion 1133 is provided between two adjacent locking recesses 1131 arranged in the opening and closing direction. The positioning protrusion 1133 abuts and positions the stop shaft. In this way, when adjusting the position of the mounting bracket 111, the positioning protrusion 1133 abuts and positions the stop shaft to achieve mutual alignment between the stop shaft and the locking recess 1131, enabling the stop shaft to be quickly locked and fixed in the locking recess 1131, and the locking effect between the locking block 113 and the mounting bracket 111 is stable and reliable.

[0059] For example, the locking block 113 is provided with two locking plates 1132 spaced apart from each other in the axial direction of the stop shaft. Each locking plate 1132 is provided with two locking recesses 1131 and a positioning protrusion 1133 located between the two locking recesses 1131. The two locking recesses 1131 of one locking plate 1132 are aligned one-by-one with the two locking recesses 1131 of the other locking plate 1132 along the axial direction, and the two positioning protrusions 1133 are aligned with each other along the axial direction. Thus, when the vehicle window glass 12 is in the closed position or the fully open position, the stop shaft corresponding to the closed position or the fully open position is located on one side of the two positioning protrusions 1133, abutting and positioning the two positioning protrusions 1133. The corresponding stop shaft is also locked and positioned in the aligned locking recesses 1131 of the two locking plates 1132, thereby ensuring a stable and reliable locking and fixing effect between the locking block 113 and the mounting bracket 111.

[0060] Based on the previous embodiment, the locking block 113 further includes a linkage shaft 1134. The linkage shaft 1134 is, for example, disposed between the two locking plates 1132. The linkage shaft 1134 engages and engages with the unlocking assembly 114. During the unlocking process, the unlocking assembly 114 pushes the linkage shaft 1134, which in turn drives the locking block 113 to move, thereby unlocking the door.

[0061] For example, the locking block 113 is provided with guide portions 1135 on two opposite sides along the opening and closing direction.

[0062] Optionally, the guide portion 1135 includes, but is not limited to, an arcuate surface, an inclined surface, or a combination of an arcuate surface and an inclined surface. During use, the mounting bracket 111, driven by the vehicle window glass 12, is guided by the guide portion 1135, allowing the stopper shaft to smoothly enter the locking recess 1131 and be locked in place by the locking recess 1131.

[0063] For example, the mounting bracket 111 also includes a frame 1112. The frame 1112 includes two guide frame edges 1113 spaced apart from each other, two stop shafts spaced apart along the length of the guide frame edges 1113, the stop shafts being connected to the two guide frame edges 1113 at opposite ends, and a locking block 113 being movably disposed between the two stop shafts along the length of the guide frame edges 1113. The locking blocks 113 are slidably engaged with the two guide frame edges 1113 at opposite sides. Thus, on the one hand, under the guidance of the guide frame edges 1113, the reciprocating motion of the mounting bracket 111 relative to the locking blocks 113 is stable and reliable. On the other hand, during the movement of the mounting bracket 111 in the opening and closing direction, whether moving forward to the open position or backward to the closed position, the corresponding stop shafts and locking blocks 113 are used to lock and position the mounting bracket 111.

[0064] In some embodiments, the locking block 113 is in sliding engagement with the fixed base 112. As the unlocking assembly 114 pushes the locking block 113 toward the fixed base 112, the locking block 113 and the fixed base 112 slide relative to each other, providing greater stability. Similarly, when the unlocking assembly 114 is released, the reset member 1121 drives the locking block 113 to move, causing the locking block 113 to slide along the fixed base 112, providing greater stability.

[0065] For example, the locking block 113 is provided with a sliding portion 1136, and the fixed base 112 is provided with a slide 1122, through which the sliding portion 1136 is slidably mounted inside the fixed base 112; the reset member 1121 is an elastic member, which is arranged inside the slide 1122 and connected between the sliding portion 1136 and the fixed base 112.

[0066] Optionally, the elastic member includes but is not limited to a spring, an elastic block, etc.

[0067] See also Figure 10 and Figure 11 For example, the fixed base 112 is provided with a stopper 1123. The sliding portion 1136 is provided with a waist-shaped hole 1137, which passes through the sliding portion 1136. The long axis of the waist-shaped hole 1137 is parallel to the sliding direction of the sliding portion 1136. The stopper 1123 is slidably disposed within the waist-shaped hole 1137 along the sliding direction. In this way, when the locking block 113 is pushed by the unlocking assembly 114 or the force of the reset member 1121, the stopper 1123 simultaneously slides along the long axis of the waist-shaped hole 1137 and is retained by the waist-shaped hole 1137, thereby improving the stability between the fixed base 112 and the locking block 113.

[0068] Optionally, the limiting member 1123 includes but is not limited to a limiting shaft or a limiting rod.

[0069] For example, the limiting member 1123 is detachably mounted on the fixed base 112. The fixed base 112 is provided with a mounting hole 1124, through which the limiting member 1123 is inserted. One end of the limiting member 1123 is provided with a first limiting portion 1125, which is located outside the fixed base 112 and abuts against the fixed base 112. The first limiting portion 1125 is, for example, an integrated structure with the limiting member 1123. The other end of the limiting member 1123 is provided with a detachable second limiting portion 1126, which is located outside the fixed base 112 and abuts against the fixed base 112. Optionally, the second limiting portion 1126 includes, but is not limited to, a retaining spring, a nut, a pin, or the like.

[0070] For example, the unlocking assembly 114, mounting bracket 111, locking block 113, and fixing base 112 are all located outside the interior trim 13. The interior trim 13 is provided with an operating window 131, and the unlocking assembly 114 is positioned within this window. This conceals the unlocking assembly 114, mounting bracket 111, locking block 113, and fixing base 112 behind the interior trim 13, preventing them from being exposed inside the vehicle and improving the product's appearance. Furthermore, since the unlocking assembly 114 is positioned within the operating window 131, it can be operated through the window 131 to unlock the vehicle.

[0071] The outer side of the interior component 13 refers to the side of the interior component 13 facing away from the vehicle interior environment. The outer side of the interior component 13 refers to the side of the interior component 13 facing away from the vehicle interior environment. The inner side of the interior component 13 refers to the side of the interior component 13 facing the vehicle interior environment. The inner side of the interior component 13 refers to the side of the interior component 13 facing the vehicle interior environment.

[0072] See also Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 For example, unlocking assembly 114 includes a mounting housing 1141 connected to the outside of interior trim 13 and a toggle member 1142 rotatably disposed within mounting housing 1141. Mounting housing 1141 has an opening communicating with operating window 131, and toggle member 1142 can be rotated through the opening and operating window 131 to the inside of interior trim 13. Thus, by manually toggling toggle member 1142 through operating window 131, toggle member 1142 rotates. One end of toggle member 1142 is driven by a finger through the opening and operating window 131 into the inside of interior trim 13. The other end of toggle member 1142 rotates and acts on linkage shaft 1134, driving lock block 113 to unlock.

[0073] For example, the mounting housing 1141 includes a base plate and two connecting plates spaced apart from each other. The toggle member 1142 is rotatably connected to the two connecting plates via a rotating shaft 1143. Both connecting plates are fixedly connected to the outer side of the interior trim 13.

[0074] For example, when the locking block 113 is in the locked position, the side of the toggle member 1142 facing the interior environment of the vehicle is flush with the inner side of the interior trim member 13 .

[0075] See also Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 Based on the previous embodiment, the outer contour of the toggle member 1142 is adapted to the shape of the operating window 131, and a space 1144 is provided between the end of the toggle member 1142 away from the unlocking assembly 114 and the operating window 131. This allows a finger to be inserted into the space 1144 and act on the end of the toggle member 1142 away from the unlocking assembly 114, thereby driving the toggle member 1142 to rotate and unlock the key.

[0076] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the present application further provides a vehicle, comprising the side window assembly 10 according to any one of the above embodiments, and further comprising a vehicle body, wherein the side window assembly 10 is mounted on the vehicle body.

[0077] In the above-mentioned vehicle, when the window glass 12 needs to be opened or closed, the unlocking assembly 114 is first used to switch the lock block 113 from the locked position to the unlocked position, thereby unlocking the mounting bracket 111; then, the position of the mounting bracket 111 can be adjusted by pushing and pulling along the opening and closing direction of the window glass 12, and the window glass 12 can be opened or closed when the mounting bracket 111 is in motion; after the window glass 12 is opened or closed, the unlocking assembly 114 is released, and the reset member 1121 switches the lock block 113 from the unlocked position to the locked position, and the lock block 113 can correspondingly lock the mounting bracket 111, thereby fixing the position of the window glass 12. As can be seen from this, the overall structure of the side window locking mechanism 11 is simpler than that of a butterfly window buckle, and the length of the mounting bracket 111 along the opening and closing direction of the window glass 12 can be adjusted to adjust the maximum opening distance of the window glass 12, that is, to adjust the maximum opening angle of the window glass 12.
