[0029] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0030] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4A body assembly 10 for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present application is described, wherein the body assembly 10 includes a pillar inner panel 11, a pillar outer panel 12 and a ventilation member 13. The pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12 are arranged opposite to each other in the width direction of the vehicle and are fixedly connected. The pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12 are at least partially spaced apart to form a ventilation cavity 111, which is communicated with the outside of the vehicle. The ventilation member 13 is arranged on the pillar inner panel 11, and an air inlet 131 and an air outlet 132 are formed on the ventilation member 13. The air inlet 131 is communicated with the cockpit of the vehicle, and the air outlet 132 is communicated with the ventilation cavity 111. The air in the cockpit is suitable for being guided into the ventilation cavity 111 through the ventilation member 13.

[0031] At present, due to the good air tightness of the whole vehicle, the static pressure in the cabin will increase when users open and close the doors, turn on the external circulation mode of the car air conditioner, open the windows while driving, etc., which will cause the opening and closing of the doors and windows to be difficult, causing uncomfortable experiences such as ear pressure for the driver and passengers. In this regard, existing automobiles use vents to relieve pressure. The vents are usually installed at the side, rear or door sill of the car body. When a rear-mounted engine is used, the vents cannot be arranged at the rear. When the vents are arranged at the door sill, there will be a risk of wading, affecting the normal operation of the vents.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, the vehicle body assembly 10 includes a column and a ventilation member 13. The ventilation member 13 can be arranged on the column. A ventilation cavity 111 is formed inside the column. The ventilation cavity 111 can be connected to the outside world. The ventilation member 13 can connect the vehicle's cockpit with the ventilation cavity 111. The air in the cockpit can flow to the ventilation cavity 111 through the ventilation member 13, and then flow from the ventilation cavity 111 to the outside world, thereby achieving pressure relief in the vehicle's cockpit and improving driving comfort. It should be noted that the column can be the vehicle's A-pillar, B-pillar or C-pillar, etc.

[0033] Further, the pillar may include a pillar inner panel 11 and a pillar outer panel 12, the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12 may be arranged opposite to each other in the width direction of the vehicle, the width direction of the vehicle may be the Y direction of the vehicle, and the length direction of the vehicle may be the X direction of the vehicle, the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12 may be fixedly connected, wherein the pillar inner panel 11 is formed with flanges on both sides in the length direction of the vehicle, and the pillar outer panel 12 is also formed with flanges on both sides in the length direction of the vehicle, the flanges of the pillar inner panel 11 and the flanges of the pillar outer panel 12 are arranged opposite to each other and are fixed by welding, thereby achieving fixation between the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12, and sealing edges are also formed on the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12, thereby ensuring the sealing effect between the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12.

[0034] The pillar inner plate 11 and at least part of the pillar outer plate 12 are spaced apart to form a ventilation cavity 111. The sealing edge structure can realize that the ventilation cavity 111 is closed on three sides. The space in the ventilation cavity 111 flows to the outside only through one outlet, and the outlet of the ventilation cavity 111 is arranged toward the bottom of the vehicle to avoid rain or water accumulation. The extension direction of the ventilation cavity 111 can be the same as the extension direction of the pillar.

[0035] The ventilation member 13 can be arranged on the inner plate 11 of the pillar. The ventilation member 13 and the inner plate 11 of the pillar can be detachably connected by bolts and threads, or the ventilation member 13 and the inner plate 11 of the pillar can be detachably connected by snapping or plugging. By arranging the ventilation member 13 on the inner plate 11 of the pillar, the external decorative parts can be eliminated, saving the cost of the external decorative parts. The ventilation member 13 is formed with an air inlet 131 and an air outlet 132. The air inlet 131 can be connected to the cockpit of the vehicle, and the air outlet 132 can be connected to the ventilation cavity 111. The air in the cockpit can be guided into the ventilation cavity 111 through the ventilation member 13, so that the ventilation member 13 can effectively relieve the pressure in the cockpit, thereby improving the reliability of the ventilation member 13. By relieving the pressure in the cockpit, the doors and windows can be opened and closed smoothly, and the ear pressure and discomfort of the driver and passengers can be prevented, thereby improving the driving comfort.

[0036] Among them, the ventilation piece 13 can be one-way ventilation. When the vehicle starts the external circulation, the air in the cockpit can be guided into the ventilation cavity 111 through the air inlet 131 and the air outlet 132 of the ventilation piece 13, and then guided to the outside through the ventilation cavity 111. When the vehicle starts the internal circulation, the air in the ventilation cavity 111 will not flow into the cockpit through the ventilation piece 13.

[0037] In short, the body assembly 10 of the present application has a pillar inner panel 11, a pillar outer panel 12 and a ventilation piece 13. A ventilation cavity 111 connected to the outside is formed between the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12. The ventilation piece 13 is arranged on the pillar inner panel 11 and connected to the ventilation cavity 111, ensuring that the air in the cockpit can be guided into the ventilation cavity 111 through the ventilation piece 13 to achieve pressure relief in the cockpit. By arranging the ventilation piece 13 on the pillar inner panel 11, the risk of wading can be avoided, thereby improving the reliability of the body assembly 10.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the ventilation member 13 includes a shell 133 and blades 134, a through hole is formed on the pillar inner plate 11, the shell 133 can penetrate the through hole in the width direction and be fixedly connected to the pillar inner plate 11, and the shell 133 is formed with an air inlet 131 and an air outlet 132 at both ends of the shell 133 in the width direction. The blades 134 can be arranged inside the shell 133, and the blades 134 can rotate toward or away from the ventilation cavity 111, thereby opening or closing the through hole member.

[0039] During actual use, a pivot shaft is formed on the shell 133, and the blade 134 is rotatably arranged on the pivot shaft. When the ventilation piece 13 is opened, the blade 134 rotates along the axial direction of the pivot shaft toward the ventilation cavity 111, so as to connect the air inlet 131 with the air outlet 132, and then connect the cockpit with the ventilation cavity 111. The air in the cockpit flows into the ventilation cavity 111 through the ventilation piece 13, so as to relieve the pressure in the cockpit. When the pressure in the cockpit drops to normal, the blade 134 can rotate along the axial direction of the pivot shaft away from the ventilation cavity 111, so as to disconnect the air inlet 131 from the air outlet 132. At this time, the ventilation piece 13 is in a closed state, and the air in the cockpit does not flow to the outside.

[0040] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the blades 134 may be configured as a plurality of blades, and the plurality of blades 134 may be arranged at intervals in the length direction of the vehicle. Specifically, the blades 134 may be configured as a plurality of groups, each group of blades may be separated by a partition plate, and each group of blades may be arranged at intervals in the length direction. By arranging a plurality of groups of blades 134, it is possible to prevent the air in the cockpit from still flowing into the ventilation cavity 111 when the air inlet 131 is partially blocked. Each group of blades 134 may include a plurality of blades 134, and the plurality of blades 134 may be arranged at intervals in the length direction. The use of a plurality of blades 134 may increase the air flow rate, achieve rapid decompression of the cockpit, and improve driving comfort.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the body assembly 10 also includes a mounting plate 14, and the mounting plate 14 can be set on the pillar inner panel 11. Since the pillar inner panel 11 and the pillar outer panel 12 need to be welded and fixed first during actual processing, the ventilation member 13 needs to be installed from the inside of the vehicle. In order to ensure that the ventilation member 13 can be installed smoothly, the mounting plate 14 is used to indirectly install the ventilation member 13 on the pillar inner panel 11, wherein a groove 112 recessed toward the ventilation cavity 111 can be formed on the pillar inner panel 11, and the mounting plate 14 can be set in the groove 112, so as to ensure that the mounting plate 14 does not protrude from the vehicle inner panel, thereby reducing the space occupied by the mounting plate 14, facilitating the arrangement of other parts inside the vehicle, and improving the overall aesthetics.

[0042] Furthermore, a first mounting surface 141 is formed on the side of the mounting plate 14 facing the cockpit, and a second mounting surface is formed on the side of the mounting plate 14 facing away from the cockpit. The first mounting surface 141 can abut against the shell 133, and the second mounting surface can be fixedly connected to the pillar inner panel 11. In a specific embodiment, an adhesive layer is provided between the second mounting surface and the pillar inner panel 11, and the second mounting surface and the pillar inner panel 11 can be fixed by gluing, and the shell 133 can be fixed to the pillar inner panel 11 through the mounting plate 14.

[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a protrusion 1331 is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the shell 133, and the protrusion 1331 can be extended away from the shell 133, and the protrusion 1331 is clamped with the first mounting surface 141 on the side facing the ventilation cavity. Specifically, the width of the protrusion 1331 in the direction toward the ventilation cavity gradually increases to form a supporting surface, and the supporting surface can abut against the first mounting surface 141, thereby limiting the movement of the shell 133 toward the ventilation cavity. In a specific embodiment, the protrusion 1331 can be constructed in plurality, and the plurality of protrusions 1331 can be spaced and arranged around the circumference of the shell 133, thereby increasing the contact area between the shell 133 and the first mounting surface 141, thereby achieving the limiting of the shell 133.

[0044] Furthermore, an extension portion 1332 extending toward the mounting plate 14 is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the shell 133. The extension portion 1332 can be constructed in a ring shape, and the free end of the extension portion 1332 abuts against the second mounting surface, thereby realizing the limitation of the shell 133 in the width direction. Since the pillar inner plate 11 and the pillar outer plate 12 need to be first welded and fixed during actual assembly, the ventilation member 13 needs to be installed from the inside of the vehicle to the outside. Specifically, the ventilation member 13 and the mounting plate 14 are first clamped and fixed. After the extension portion 1332 abuts against the mounting plate 14, TPV soft glue is used to achieve sealing and limitation between the extension portion 1332 and the mounting plate 14. After the ventilation member 13 and the mounting plate 14 are fixed, they are fixed to the pillar inner plate 11 as a whole. The mounting plate 14 and the pillar inner plate 11 are fixed by gluing to complete the installation of the ventilation member 13.
