Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle component installation, and in particular to a door lock actuator installation structure. The present invention also relates to a vehicle provided with the door lock actuator installation structure. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of automotive technology, people's requirements for cars are becoming increasingly higher. The car door lock system is a key component of the car body, a special component that integrates safety, decoration and craftsmanship. With the development of the automotive industry, the functions and types of car door lock systems are becoming increasingly diverse. Passengers' understanding of cars is increasing, and their requirements for car comfort are also becoming higher and higher. For car doors, humanized opening and closing are becoming more and more concerned by customers and vehicle manufacturers.

[0003] Traditional automotive door latch systems require considerable force to close due to the resistance of vehicle components. In practice, the door locks are often only partially locked, not fully locked, posing a significant safety hazard. Furthermore, the noise created by the collision during the door opening and closing process is uncomfortable and reduces its service life. Consequently, an increasing number of vehicle models are equipped with self-priming or power-operated doors, which require the installation of self-priming door locks.

[0004] Existing self-priming door locks include actuators, whose primary function is to execute the driver's commands to lock or unlock the doors and tailgate. Traditionally, the door lock actuator is installed by first creating screw holes in the sheet metal of the door or tailgate, then securing the door lock actuator to the sheet metal with screws.

[0005] When the actuator of the above-mentioned installation structure is in operation, the vibration generated by the operation will cause the vehicle door to vibrate, and even produce abnormal noise, resulting in poor NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) performance of the vehicle door, greatly affecting the riding comfort of passengers. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a door lock actuator mounting structure, so as to effectively reduce the vibration of the vehicle door when the door lock actuator is in operation.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is achieved as follows:

[0008] A door lock actuator mounting structure includes a structural body, wherein the structural body is provided with a mounting portion and a mounting protrusion;

[0009] The mounting portion is used to mount a door lock actuator. A connector and an elastic pad are provided on the mounting protrusion. The structural body abuts against the vehicle door via the elastic pad and is connected to the vehicle door via the connector.

[0010] Furthermore, the structural body is plate-shaped, the mounting protrusion is formed by protruding from one side of the structural body in the thickness direction to the other side, and a groove is formed in the mounting protrusion; and / or,

[0011] A plurality of main reinforcing ribs are arranged in a staggered manner on at least one side surface of the structural body.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting protrusion is provided with a plurality of first reinforcing ribs spaced along its circumference, and the first reinforcing ribs extend from the outer circumference of the mounting protrusion to the side surface of one side of the structural body; and / or,

[0013] A plurality of second reinforcing ribs are provided on the groove wall of the groove and spaced apart along the circumference thereof, and the second reinforcing ribs extend from the groove wall of the groove to the side surface of the other side of the structural body.

[0014] Furthermore, the structural body is provided with a first annular rib arranged around the mounting protrusion;

[0015] The first annular rib connects the plurality of first reinforcing ribs together.

[0016] Furthermore, relative to the mounting protrusion, a protruding column is provided on the other side of the structural body;

[0017] A buffer is provided on the boss, and the boss abuts against the door lock actuator through the buffer.

[0018] Furthermore, the mounting portion includes a mounting hole provided on the structural body, and the mounting hole includes a first portion and a second portion extending radially along the first portion;

[0019] The knob of the door lock actuator can pass through the structural body from one side of the structural body through the mounting hole, and after the knob is driven to rotate, it can be clamped on the other side of the structural body.

[0020] Furthermore, the mounting hole is arranged adjacent to the mounting protrusion; and / or,

[0021] The number of the mounting protrusions and the number of the mounting holes are both arranged in a triangle.

[0022] Furthermore, the structural body is provided with a second annular rib surrounding the mounting hole; and / or,

[0023] The portion of the structural body where the mounting hole is provided protrudes toward a side away from the mounting protrusion.

[0024] Furthermore, the structural body is provided with a plurality of third reinforcing ribs spaced apart along the circumference of the second annular rib;

[0025] Each of the third reinforcing ribs extends radially along the second annular rib.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0027] The door lock actuator mounting structure described in the present invention can improve its structural strength by providing a mounting protrusion on the structural body, and providing a connecting piece and an elastic pad on the mounting protrusion, so that the structural body is in contact with the vehicle door through the elastic pad. In this way, the structural body can be kept away from the vehicle door, preventing the structural body from contacting the vehicle door over a large area, and effectively reducing resonance and abnormal noise. At the same time, the provision of the elastic pad can absorb the vibration energy of the door lock actuator, which can further reduce the vibration of the vehicle door.

[0028] In addition, the mounting protrusion is formed by protruding from one side of the structural body to the other side in the thickness direction, which can ensure the strength of the structural body while helping to reduce its overall weight compared to directly setting a solid protrusion structure on one side of the structural body; and multiple main reinforcing ribs arranged in a staggered manner on at least one side surface of the structural body can improve the structural strength of the structural body and prevent it from being damaged by vibration.

[0029] By arranging multiple first reinforcing ribs on the mounting protrusion, or arranging multiple second reinforcing ribs in the groove wall of the groove, it is possible to not only improve the structural strength of the mounting protrusion, but also enable the multiple first reinforcing ribs to form a force transmission channel, which is beneficial to disperse and eliminate the vibration transmitted from the door lock actuator to the mounting protrusion, thereby effectively reducing the vibration of the vehicle door.

[0030] Secondly, the main body is equipped with a first annular rib connecting multiple first reinforcing ribs, further enhancing its structural strength. This also creates a more diverse force transmission channel, improving the dispersion of door lock actuator vibrations, thereby effectively reducing vibration transmitted to the vehicle door. The presence of a raised column on the main body not only enhances its structural strength, but also, through the contact of the column with the door lock actuator via a buffer, further absorbs the vibration energy generated during operation.

[0031] Furthermore, the triangular arrangement of the mounting protrusions and mounting holes leverages the stability of the triangle to enhance the stability of the door lock actuator's installation on the structural body, as well as the structural body's installation on the vehicle door. The portion of the structural body where the mounting holes are located protrudes away from the mounting protrusions, enhancing the structural strength of the mounting holes and, consequently, the installation strength of the door lock actuator. This also effectively reduces vibration transmitted from the door lock actuator to the mounting holes. The presence of multiple third reinforcing ribs creates multiple force transmission channels, dispersing and dissipating vibration from the door lock actuator, effectively reducing vehicle door vibration.

[0032] Another object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle provided with the door lock actuator mounting structure as described above.

[0033] The vehicle described in the present invention, by providing the above-mentioned door lock actuator mounting structure, can keep the structural body away from the vehicle door, prevent the structural body from making large-area contact with the vehicle door, and effectively reduce resonance and abnormal noise; at the same time, the provision of the elastic pad can absorb the vibration energy of the door lock actuator, which can further reduce the vibration of the vehicle door.

[0049] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0050] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper," "lower," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely to facilitate and simplify the description of the present invention. They are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0051] Furthermore, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly defined, the terms "mounted," "connected," "connect," and "connector" should be interpreted broadly. For example, these terms may refer to fixed, removable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; direct or indirect connections through an intermediary; or internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will appreciate the specific meanings of these terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0052] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0053] The existing self-suction door lock is generally arranged on a self-suction door or an electric door, and the self-suction door lock comprises an executor which is usually directly installed on the vehicle door. The inventor finds that when the executor is running, the vibration generated by the running will cause the vehicle door to also vibrate, and even the vibration will generate an abnormal sound. The vibration will have a great influence on the NVH performance of the whole vehicle, and therefore, the purpose of the embodiment is to design a new door lock executor mounting structure to reduce the vibration of the vehicle door when the door lock executor is running.

[0054] Specifically, the door lock executor mounting structure of the embodiment comprises a structure body 1, and the structure body 1 is provided with a mounting portion and a mounting protrusion 101. The mounting portion is used for mounting a door lock executor 2, the mounting protrusion 101 is provided with a connecting piece 102 and an elastic pad 103, the structure body 1 abuts against a vehicle door 3 through the elastic pad 103, and the structure body 1 is connected with the vehicle door 3 through the connecting piece 102.

[0055] The door lock executor mounting structure of the embodiment can improve the structural strength of the structure body 1 by arranging the mounting protrusion 101 on the structure body 1, and the connecting piece 102 and the elastic pad 103 are arranged on the mounting protrusion 101, and the structure body 1 abuts against the vehicle door 3 through the elastic pad 103. Thus, the structure body 1 can be away from the vehicle door 3, and the structure body 1 and the vehicle door 3 are prevented from being in large-area contact, so that the resonance abnormal sound can be effectively reduced. Meanwhile, the elastic pad 103 can absorb the vibration energy of the door lock executor, and the vibration of the vehicle door 3 can be further reduced, and thus the NVH performance of the whole vehicle can be improved.

[0056] Based on the above overall introduction, one exemplary structure of the door lock executor mounting structure of the embodiment is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , wherein Figure 1 only the partial structure of the vehicle door 3 is shown in Figure 3 , and the specific structure can be referred to the prior art, which will not be described here. In order to facilitate the understanding of the embodiment, the cooperation structure of the door lock executor 2 and the structure body 1 will be simply introduced in combination with Figure 3 , and the other structures can be referred to the prior art. Specifically, as shown in

[0057] Among them, a mounting groove is formed on the mounting block 201, and the knob 202 is arranged to be convex relative to the mounting groove when it is rotated. The knob 202 of this embodiment is the same as the conventional structure, and roughly includes a knob body that is rotatably connected to the mounting block 201, and an operating block that extends toward the two opposite ends of the knob body along the radial direction of the knob body. Among them, the knob body is cylindrical as a whole, and the operating block is a long strip-shaped block structure that extends along the radial direction of the knob body. The block structure is convex relative to the mounting groove for easy operation. Moreover, the length of the block structure is much smaller than the inner diameter of the groove to prevent the rotation 202 from interfering with the mounting block 201 during the rotation process. In addition, in order to improve the operating feel, as Figure 3 As shown in , a concave pit is provided in the middle of the operating block, and the pit can be entered by fingers to pinch the operating block, thereby facilitating the rotation of the knob 202.

[0058] In addition, in order to improve the installation stability of the door lock actuator 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown in FIG, as a preferred embodiment, the mounting blocks 201 are arranged in a triangle, which takes advantage of the good stability of the triangle to improve the installation stability of the door lock actuator 2, thereby effectively reducing the vibration of the door lock actuator 2 caused by unstable installation, and helping to reduce the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3. Figure 3 As shown in , there are also three knobs 202 correspondingly arranged. Therefore, when the knob 203 is installed on the structural body 1, the triangle can be used to improve the installation stability of the door lock actuator 2 on the structural body 1.

[0059] It should be noted that the arrangement and number of the mounting blocks 201 and the knobs 202 are not limited to Figure 3 In the structure shown in FIG, when the arrangement and number of the mounting blocks 201 are changed accordingly, the mounting structure on the structural body 1 can be adaptively changed. For example, the mounting blocks 201 and the knobs 202 can be adjusted to four in a rectangular arrangement, or five in a pentagonal arrangement, or other number and arrangement structures. In addition, in order to fully reduce the vibration caused by the door lock actuator 2 to the vehicle door 3 during operation, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown in FIG, the door lock actuator 2 is further provided with a boss 203 protruding toward one side in the thickness direction thereof.

[0060] Among them, such as Figure 2As shown in FIG. 1, the protruding direction of the boss 203 is the same as the protruding direction of the mounting block 201, and is used to abut against the structural body 1. In this way, the door lock actuator 2 can avoid large-area contact with the structural body 1, and can effectively prevent the structural body 1 from resonating with the door lock actuator 2, thereby facilitating reduction of the vibration of the door 3. In addition, in order to further improve the structural strength of the boss 203, a plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the boss 203, and the fourth reinforcing ribs extend from the top of the boss 203 to the end face of the door lock actuator 2, and further extend to the side face of the door lock actuator 2. In this way, the plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs can form annular support for the boss 203, and can improve the structural strength of the boss 203, and prevent the boss 203 from being crushed due to abutment against the structural body 1.

[0061] As a further embodiment, a fourth annular rib is arranged around the boss 203 on the end face of the structural body 1, and the fourth annular rib connects the plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs together. In this way, the strength of the boss and the shell of the door lock actuator 2 can be further improved, and a plurality of force transmission channels arranged around the boss 203 can be formed, and the vibration generated by the door lock actuator 2 itself can be dispersed and dissipated through the plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs and the fourth annular rib around the boss 203. In this way, the vibration transmitted to the structural body 1 and the door 3 through the boss 203 can be reduced, and the vibration of the door can be better reduced.

[0062] In addition, as a further embodiment, a fifth annular rib is arranged around the fourth annular rib on the door lock actuator 2, and the fifth annular rib also connects the plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs together. In this way, more force transmission channels arranged around the boss 203 can be formed, and the vibration at the boss 203 can be further dispersed to reduce the vibration transmitted to the door 3 through the structural body 1. In addition, the fourth annular rib and the fifth annular rib are preferably circular, so as to improve the force transmission effect of the fourth annular rib and the fifth annular rib by virtue of the smoothness of the circular shape. Of course, in addition to arranging the fourth annular rib and the fifth annular rib as circular, they can also be arranged as rectangular or other closed ring structures.

[0063] In addition, as a specific embodiment, the boss 203 is entirely cylindrical to facilitate processing and manufacturing. Of course, the boss 203 can also be arranged as rectangular, triangular or other shapes, but the manufacturing difficulty may increase. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, as a preferred embodiment, the boss 203 of the present embodiment is also arranged as three triangles, so as to improve the mounting stability of the door lock actuator 2 by virtue of the better stability of the triangular shape. Figure 3

[0064] ​It is understood that, in addition to providing three bosses 203 arranged in a triangle, the number of bosses 203 can also be two, four, or more, and the arrangement structure can be adjusted accordingly. Moreover, when the arrangement structure and number of bosses 203 are changed accordingly, the matching structure on the structural body 1 can be adaptively changed.

[0065] Based on the structure of the door lock actuator 2, the structure of the structural body 1 of this embodiment is as follows: Figures 4 to 9 As shown in FIG, as a specific embodiment, the structural body 1 is generally rectangular in shape. This is to sufficiently reduce its volume while meeting the installation requirements of the door lock actuator 2, thereby facilitating the lightweight design of the vehicle door 3 and facilitating the arrangement of the structural body 1 on the vehicle door 3. Of course, in a specific implementation, the shape of the structural body 1 may be circular, triangular, or other shapes in addition to the rectangle of this embodiment.

[0066] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 4 As shown in FIG, the structural body 1 is plate-shaped and comprises a first portion and a second portion connected to the first portion by a bend. The first portion is configured to abut the aforementioned boss 203, while the second portion protrudes toward the side closest to the vehicle door 3. The mounting protrusion 101 is formed by protruding from one side of the structural body 1 in the thickness direction toward the other side, and a groove K is formed within the mounting protrusion 101. Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the mounting protrusion 101 is cylindrical for ease of processing and manufacturing. The smooth outer surface of the mounting protrusion 101 also optimizes the vibration path, thereby reducing vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3.

[0067] The structural body 1 of this embodiment is plate-shaped, facilitating its installation within the relatively narrow space of the vehicle door 3 and also contributing to a lightweight design. The mounting protrusions 101 extend from one side of the structural body 1 in its thickness direction to the other. This not only enhances the structural strength of the structural body 1 but also reduces its weight compared to a solid protrusion directly on one side of the structural body 1. In this embodiment, multiple mounting protrusions 101 are further provided at intervals to enhance the secure installation of the structural body 1 on the vehicle door 3.

[0068] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 4 As shown in FIG, each mounting protrusion 101 is generally cylindrical to facilitate manufacturing. Of course, in addition to setting each mounting protrusion 4 as a cylindrical shape, it is also possible to set it as a triangle, rectangle, or other shapes. In addition, it is understood that in addition to setting each mounting protrusion 101 as a cylindrical structure, it is also theoretically feasible to set each mounting protrusion 101 as a different shape, for example, one mounting protrusion 101 is cylindrical and another mounting protrusion 101 is rectangular.

[0069] In addition, as a preferred embodiment, as shown in Figure 4 The mounting protrusions 101 of the present embodiment are arranged in a triangle. Thus, the mounting stability of the structural body 1 on the door 3 can be improved by virtue of the stability of the triangle. It should be understood that the mounting protrusions 101 can also be arranged in other shapes, such as two in a straight line, four in a rectangle, or five in a pentagon.

[0070] The mounting protrusions 101 and the surrounding structure are the same, and only one mounting protrusion 101 will be described below. In addition, a through hole is provided on the mounting protrusion 101 to facilitate the connection between the structural body 1 and the door 3. The connecting member 102 can be a bolt inserted into the through hole, and the elastic pad 103 can be a ring around the bolt and made of sponge.

[0071] It should be noted that the connecting member 102 can also be a nut or a stud welded to the mounting protrusion 101, in which case the through hole is not required. The elastic pad 103 can also be bonded to the mounting protrusion 101, and can also be arc-shaped. In addition, the elastic pad 103 can be made of sponge or other materials that can absorb vibrations.

[0072] In the present embodiment, to further improve the use effect, as shown in Figure 5 The mounting protrusion 101 is provided with a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105 arranged along the circumferential direction of the mounting protrusion 101, and the first reinforcing ribs 105 extend from the outer circumferential surface of the mounting protrusion 101 to the side surface of the structural body 1. Specifically, the first reinforcing ribs 105 include a longitudinal portion extending along the axial direction of the mounting protrusion 101, and a transverse portion provided on the side surface of the structural body 1.

[0073] Furthermore, as a further embodiment, the longitudinal portion and the transverse portion are connected by a curved surface with a smooth transition, so as to optimize the vibration transmission path by the curved surface with a smooth transition, improve the decomposition and dissipation of the vibration of the door lock actuator 2, and further reduce the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3. At the same time, the connection between the longitudinal portion and the transverse portion by the curved surface with a smooth transition also makes the first reinforcing rib 105 as a whole in a triangular shape, so as to improve the reinforcing effect on the mounting protrusion 101 structure by utilizing the characteristic that the triangle has higher stability.

[0074] Furthermore, as a further embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 in order to improve the reinforcing effect of the first reinforcing rib 105 on the mounting protrusion 101, the longitudinal portion extends from the top to the bottom of the mounting protrusion 101. This arrangement can also facilitate the dispersion of the vibration at the connecting piece 102 to other parts of the structure body 1 through the first reinforcing rib 105, thereby effectively reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3.

[0075] As a further embodiment, the first reinforcing rib 105 is arranged radially around the mounting protrusion 101, that is, the first reinforcing rib 105 is a plurality of ribs arranged at intervals along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101. Furthermore, as a further embodiment, the first reinforcing rib 105 is uniformly arranged along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101, so as to improve the uniform transmission of the vibration at the connecting piece 102 along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101, prevent excessive vibration at local positions, and reduce excessive vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3.

[0076] Therefore, the arrangement of the first reinforcing rib 105 not only improves the structural strength of the mounting protrusion 101, but also forms a plurality of force transmission channels with the plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105, which facilitates the dispersion and dissipation of the vibration transmitted by the door lock actuator 2 to the mounting protrusion 101 to the surrounding, thereby effectively reducing the vibration of the vehicle door 3. As a specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 , the first reinforcing rib 105 of the embodiment is eight uniformly arranged along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101. It should be noted that the number of the first reinforcing rib 105 is not limited to Figure 6 as shown in the figure, and the number can be adjusted according to design requirements. For example, the number of the first reinforcing rib 105 can be changed to six, ten or other numbers. In addition, instead of uniformly arranging the first reinforcing rib 105 along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101, a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105 can also be arranged without uniformity along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101.

[0077] As a further embodiment, as shown in Figure 5As shown in the structure body 1, a first annular rib 106 is arranged around the mounting protrusion 101, and the first annular rib 106 connects a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105 together. By arranging the first annular rib 106, not only the structural strength of the mounting protrusion 101 can be further improved, but also a force transmission channel can be formed through the plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105, so that the vibration on the mounting protrusion 101 can be dispersed in multiple directions, thereby reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3.

[0078] As a preferred embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 As shown in the structure body 1, a first annular rib 106 is arranged around the mounting protrusion 101, and the first annular rib 106 connects a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105 together. By arranging the first annular rib 106, not only the structural strength of the mounting protrusion 101 can be further improved, but also a force transmission channel can be formed through the plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105, so that the vibration on the mounting protrusion 101 can be dispersed in multiple directions, thereby reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3.

[0079] In order to further improve the use effect, based on Figure 9 As shown in the structure body 1, a first annular rib 106 is arranged around the mounting protrusion 101, and the first annular rib 106 connects a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105 together. By arranging the first annular rib 106, not only the structural strength of the mounting protrusion 101 can be further improved, but also a force transmission channel can be formed through the plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105, so that the vibration on the mounting protrusion 101 can be dispersed in multiple directions, thereby reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3.

[0080] In addition, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the embodiment, a plurality of second reinforcing ribs 1011 are arranged on the groove wall of each groove K, and the second reinforcing ribs 1011 extend from the groove wall of the groove K to the side surface of the structure body 1 on the other side. Moreover, the second reinforcing ribs 1011 extend from the bottom of the groove K along the axial direction of the mounting protrusion 101. This arrangement can further facilitate the dispersion of vibration at the through hole to other parts of the structure body 1 through the second reinforcing ribs 1011, thereby reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3 through the structure body 1.

[0081] In addition, the second reinforcing ribs 1011 are arranged radially around the groove K, and they not only improve the structural strength of the mounting protrusion 101, but also form a plurality of force transmission channels, which can effectively reduce the vibration of the vehicle door 3. In the embodiment, the number of second reinforcing ribs 1011 is not limited, and it can be adjusted according to design requirements.

[0082] It should be noted that the provision of multiple first reinforcing ribs 105 spaced along the circumference of the mounting protrusion 101, with the first reinforcing ribs 105 extending from the outer circumference of the mounting protrusion 101 to the side surface of one side of the structural body 1, and the provision of multiple second reinforcing ribs 1011 spaced along the circumference of the groove K on the wall thereof, with the second reinforcing ribs 1011 extending from the wall of the groove K to the side surface of the other side of the structural body 1, is merely a preferred embodiment. In specific implementations, depending on the specific circumstances, only the multiple first reinforcing ribs 105 may be provided, without the second reinforcing ribs 1011. Alternatively, only the multiple second reinforcing ribs 1011 may be provided, without the first reinforcing ribs 105.

[0083] like Figure 8 As shown in , as a further embodiment, relative to the first annular rib 106, a third annular rib 1012 is provided on the other side of the structural body 1, surrounding the groove K. Furthermore, the third annular rib 1012 connects the plurality of second reinforcing ribs 1011 together. The third annular rib 1012 has the same technical effect as the first annular rib 106. That is, the provision of the third annular rib 1012 and the second reinforcing rib 1011 can form a plurality of force transmission channels on the other side of the mounting protrusion 101, thereby further decomposing and dissipating the vibration at the through hole, thereby improving the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3 through the connecting member 102, which is beneficial to improving the overall NVH performance of the vehicle.

[0084] It should be noted that providing both the first reinforcing rib 105 and the second reinforcing rib 1011 on the structural body 1 is merely an optimal embodiment. In specific implementations, depending on design requirements, only the first reinforcing rib 105 or only the second reinforcing rib 1011 may be provided. Furthermore, the third annular rib 1012 is preferably in a circular shape to utilize its smoothness and enhance its force transmission. Of course, in addition to the circular shape, rectangular or other closed annular structures are also feasible.

[0085] In addition, in order to further reduce the vibration of the door 3, a plurality of main reinforcing ribs 109 arranged in a staggered manner are provided on at least one side of the structural body 1. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown in FIG, as a preferred embodiment, a plurality of main reinforcing ribs 109 are arranged in a staggered manner on both sides of the structural body 1. Figure 9As shown in , as a preferred embodiment, the main reinforcing rib 109 includes a plurality of first and second ribs interwoven horizontally and vertically, and a third rib connected between the reinforcing protrusion and the flange. The first and second ribs are both connected between the reinforcing protrusion and the flange, and are arranged perpendicularly therebetween. The third rib is arranged obliquely relative to the first and second ribs and is connected between the other side of the reinforcing protrusion and the flange.

[0086] The first reinforcing ribs 105 and the second reinforcing ribs 1011 are respectively connected to the main reinforcing ribs 109 on the corresponding sides. In addition, as a further embodiment, flanges are provided along the edges of both sides of the structural body 1 to further improve the strength of the structural body 1 and prevent it from being damaged by vibration. In addition, since the above-mentioned annular ribs are multiple and radially arranged, for this purpose, Figure 7 As shown in , a reinforcing protrusion is provided in the middle of the structural body 1. The reinforcing protrusion is specifically L-shaped and is connected to the above-mentioned reinforcing ribs to further transmit force. It should be noted that making the structural body 1 plate-shaped, the mounting protrusion 101 protruding from one side of the structural body 1 to the other side in the thickness direction, forming a groove K in the mounting protrusion 101, and providing a plurality of staggered main reinforcing ribs 109 on at least one side of the structural body 1 are only preferred embodiments. In specific implementations, it is also possible not to provide the main reinforcing ribs 109 on the structural body 1, or to provide the structural body 1 in a block shape instead of a plate shape. In this case, there is no need to provide a plurality of reinforcing structures such as reinforcing ribs, but this arrangement will obviously increase the overall weight of the door, which is not conducive to the lightweight design of the entire vehicle.

[0087] In this embodiment, to achieve better performance, a boss 1010 is provided on the other side of the structural body 1 relative to the mounting protrusion 101. This boss 1010 is provided with a buffer 1013, and boss 1010 abuts against the door lock actuator 2 via the buffer 1013. The diameter of boss 1010 can be set between 5 mm and 6 mm, for example, 5.2 mm, 5.7 mm, 6.0 mm, or other values. In this embodiment, the provision of boss 1010 for abutting against the door lock actuator 2 prevents large-area contact between the structural body 1 and the door lock actuator 2, which could cause resonance and abnormal sound.

[0088] And, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 7As shown in FIG, the boss 1010 of this embodiment is cylindrical. It is understood that the boss 1010 may be triangular or have other shapes other than cylindrical. Furthermore, to further enhance the user experience, three bosses 1010 are provided in this embodiment, corresponding one-to-one with the bosses 203. It should be noted that the bosses 1010 may be two, four, or more in addition to three. The arrangement of the multiple bosses 101 can be appropriately configured as needed.

[0089] Based on the structure of the door lock actuator 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown in FIG, the boss 1010 of this embodiment abuts the boss 203 via a buffer 1013. The provision of the buffer 1013 on the boss 1010 allows it to absorb the vibration energy generated during operation of the door lock actuator 2, thereby reducing vibration of the vehicle door 3. Furthermore, the buffer 1013 can be made of a conventional soft rubber material to provide a better absorption effect.

[0090] Furthermore, the buffer member 1013 can be specifically coated on the boss 1010 using an injection molding process to enhance the secure connection between the buffer member 1013 and the boss 1010 and prevent the buffer member 1013 from falling off due to vibration of the door lock actuator 2. Of course, in addition to injection molding the buffer member 1013 on the boss 1010, the buffer member 1013 can also be bonded to the boss 1010. Alternatively, the buffer member 1013 can be configured as a cap and interference fit onto the boss 1010.

[0091] In addition, in order to further improve the firmness of the arrangement of the buffer member 1013 on the boss 1010, as a further embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 9 As shown in , a groove is provided in the middle of the boss 1010. Accordingly, the buffer 101 may further include an inserting portion provided in the groove, and an abutting portion protruding radially outward from the inserting portion, with the abutting portion located on the end face of the boss 1010 and configured to abut against the boss 203. This design not only improves the connection stability between the buffer 1013 and the boss 101, but also increases the abutting area between the buffer 1013 and the boss 203, thereby better absorbing the vibration energy generated during the operation of the door lock actuator 2, thereby reducing the vibration of the vehicle door 3.

[0092] Because the door lock actuator 2 is an electric component, its structure is complex, its layout is bulky, and it is expensive and difficult to maintain. Therefore, when designing the mounting structure for the door lock actuator 2, ease of subsequent maintenance must be considered. Conventional door lock actuators 2 are typically mounted to the vehicle door using bolts. While this mounting structure provides a high degree of mounting security, the vibrations generated by the door lock actuator 2 during operation cause even greater vibrations to be transmitted to the vehicle door through the bolts. Furthermore, the door lock actuator 2 is mounted inside the vehicle door, leaving a relatively small installation space. This mounting method makes it difficult to disassemble the door lock actuator 2 for subsequent maintenance, while also making it easier to reinstall the door lock actuator 2 after maintenance is complete.

[0093] Combine Figures 7 to 9 As shown in FIG, the mounting portion of this embodiment includes mounting holes 104 provided on the structural body 1. The mounting holes 104 correspond to the knobs 202 and are arranged in a triangle. In addition, in order to improve the installation firmness of the door lock actuator 2, the mounting holes 104 are provided in a triangle. Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown in FIG, a mounting boss is provided on the structural body 1, and the protrusion direction of the mounting boss is opposite to the protrusion direction of the mounting protrusion 101. This design not only further improves the structural strength of the structural body 1, but also prevents the mounting boss from interfering with the door lock actuator 2 when it is installed on the structural body 1.

[0094] The mounting hole 104 of the present embodiment is provided on the mounting boss, and the mounting boss is used to abut against the door lock actuator 2. Therefore, by providing the mounting boss, the structural strength of this portion of the structural body 1 can be improved, thereby improving the structural strength of the mounting hole 104, reducing the vibration at the mounting hole 104, and further reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door by the door lock actuator 2.

[0095] As a further embodiment, the mounting boss is formed by protruding from one side of the structural body 1 in the thickness direction to the other side, and is formed with a recess. This structure not only ensures the structural strength of the mounting boss and the mounting hole 104, but also helps reduce the weight of the structural body compared to a solid mounting boss. In addition, based on the structure of the above-mentioned knob 202, the mounting hole 104 of this embodiment is arranged in a conformal manner with the knob 202 and includes a first portion 1041 and a second portion 1042 extending radially along the first portion 1041. The first portion 1041 is a circular hole conforming to the knob body, and the second portion 1042 is provided on two opposite sides of the first portion 1041. Moreover, the second portion 1042 on each side is respectively conformed to the corresponding end of the operating block and is roughly a rectangular hole.

[0096] Thus, when the knob 202 corresponds to the mounting hole 104, the rotating body can pass through the first portion 1041, and the operating block can pass through the second portion 1042, so that the knob 202 of the door lock actuator 2 can pass through the structural body 1 through the mounting hole 104 from one side of the structural body 1, and after the knob 202 is driven to rotate, it can be locked on the other side of the structural body 1.

[0097] Specifically, when the operating block of knob 202 is aligned with second portion 1042, the entire knob 202 can be passed through mounting hole 104 from one side of structural body 1. Furthermore, when knob 202 is rotated so that the operating block is offset from second portion 1042, the rotating operating block can be locked onto the other side of structural body 1, thereby completing the installation of door lock actuator 2 on structural body 1. Furthermore, to enhance the secure installation of door lock actuator 2, during operation, the operating block is preferably arranged perpendicular to the line connecting the two second portions 1042. This design prevents knob 202 from becoming completely aligned with mounting hole 104 and falling out of it, even if the door lock actuator 2 experiences slight wobble.

[0098] In this embodiment, rotating knob 202 facilitates removal and installation of door lock actuator 2, allowing for repeated rework and preventing damage to door lock actuator 2. Furthermore, to further enhance the structural strength of door lock actuator 2, mounting hole 104 is positioned adjacent to mounting protrusion 101. Furthermore, by projecting mounting protrusion 101 and mounting boss in opposite directions, the mounting stability of door lock actuator 2 and its overall securement with structural body 1 can be further enhanced. The provision of these reinforcing ribs provides superior structural strength at mounting protrusion 101.

[0099] In this embodiment, by arranging the mounting hole 104 adjacent to the mounting protrusion 101, the mounting hole 104 can also have a better structural strength, thereby not only improving the installation security of the door lock actuator 2, but also reducing the vibration transmitted to the mounting hole 104. In addition, because the mounting hole 104 is adjacent to the mounting protrusion 101, the vibration transmitted from the door lock actuator 2 to the mounting hole 104 can be effectively dispersed and dissipated as quickly as possible through the multiple force transmission channels formed by the multiple first reinforcing ribs 105, the second reinforcing ribs 1011, the first annular ribs 106, and the second annular ribs 107 provided on the mounting protrusion 101, thereby facilitating the reduction of vibration of the structural body 1, and thus effectively reducing the vibration of the vehicle door 3.

[0100] It should be noted that placing mounting holes 104 adjacent to mounting protrusions 101 and providing a triangular arrangement of three mounting protrusions 101 and mounting holes 104 is merely a preferred embodiment. In practice, mounting holes 104 and mounting protrusions 101 may not be adjacent to each other, or the number of mounting protrusions 101 and mounting holes 104 may be two, four, or any other number.

[0101] As a further embodiment, Figure 5 As shown in FIG, the structural body 1 is provided with a second annular rib 107 arranged around the mounting hole 104. Such an arrangement can further improve the structural strength at the mounting hole 104. In addition, combined with Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in , the structural body 1 is provided with a plurality of third reinforcing ribs 108 spaced circumferentially around the second annular rib 107, and each third reinforcing rib 108 extends radially along the second annular rib 107. The provision of these third reinforcing ribs 108 not only further enhances the structural strength at the mounting hole 104 but also enables the plurality of first reinforcing ribs 105 to form multiple force transmission channels, facilitating the dispersion and dissipation of vibrations from the door lock actuator 2, thereby effectively reducing vibrations of the vehicle door 3.

[0102] Among them, as a preferred embodiment, Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the second annular rib 107 of this embodiment is in the shape of a ring, so as to optimize the vibration transmission path by utilizing its smooth transition surface, thereby improving the decomposition and dissipation effect of the vibration of the door lock actuator 3, thereby reducing the vibration transmitted to the vehicle door 3, and further improving the NVH performance of the entire vehicle. It is understandable that in addition to setting the second annular rib 107 in the shape of a ring, it is also feasible to set the second annular rib 107 in the shape of a triangle, rectangle or other closed ring. In addition, as Figure 8 As shown in FIG, the portion of the structural body 1 where the mounting hole 104 is provided protrudes away from the mounting protrusion 101, thereby forming the aforementioned mounting boss. This design further enhances the structural strength of the mounting hole 104. However, it should be noted that protruding the portion of the mounting hole 104 away from the mounting protrusion 101 and providing the second annular rib 107 are merely preferred embodiments. In practice, the portion of the mounting hole 104 may alternatively be flat, or the second annular rib 107 may be omitted.

[0103] In addition, the height and thickness of each of the above-mentioned reinforcing ribs can be determined according to design requirements and are not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0104] The door lock actuator mounting structure of this embodiment, by providing multiple reinforcing ribs on the surface of the structural body 1, can enhance the strength of localized areas of the structural body 1, absorbing vibration energy during the movement of the door lock actuator 2. It also isolates the structural body 1 from the resonance noise generated by the operation of the door 3 caused by the motor of the door lock actuator 2, thereby improving the NVH performance of the sheet metal. Furthermore, this not only provides the structural body 1 with superior structural strength, but also prevents large-scale contact between the structural body 1 and the door 3, preventing vibration generated by the operation of the door lock actuator 2 from being transmitted to the door 3 and causing resonance. Furthermore, the buffer member on the boss 1010 and the elastic pad 103 on the mounting protrusion 101 further absorb vibration energy, effectively reducing the vibration of the door 3 and improving the NVH performance of the entire vehicle.

[0105] In addition, this embodiment also relates to a vehicle, on which the above door lock actuator mounting structure is provided.

[0106] The vehicle of this embodiment, by providing the aforementioned door lock actuator mounting structure, prevents extensive contact between the structural body 1 and the vehicle door 3, thus preventing vibration generated by the operation of the door lock actuator 2 from being transmitted to the vehicle door 3 and causing resonance. Furthermore, the buffer member 1013 on the boss 1010 and the elastic pad 103 on the mounting protrusion 101 further absorb vibration energy, effectively reducing the vibration of the vehicle door 3 and improving the NVH performance of the entire vehicle, thereby enhancing the overall competitiveness of the vehicle.
