[0025] To facilitate understanding of the dashboard assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application, its application scenario is first described. The dashboard assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied in automobiles to protect components in the instrument panel and reduce the risk of the driver unconsciously inserting his feet into the instrument panel and touching the components in the instrument panel. In the current dashboard assembly, the bottom guard plate is connected at one end, which causes the stability of the bottom guard plate to be cross-connected and easy to shake. For this reason, the embodiment of the present application provides a dashboard assembly to improve the stability of the bottom guard plate. It is described in detail below in conjunction with specific drawings and embodiments.
[0026] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of the dashboard assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown; Figure 2 An exploded schematic diagram of the instrument panel assembly is shown.
[0027] The instrument panel assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes a front panel 10, a support member 30 and a bottom guard plate 20; wherein, the support member 30 may be an instrument panel frame or a bottom guard plate or other support members 30, which are not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. When the front panel and the support member 30 are set, the front panel 10 and the support member 30 are arranged relative to each other. Specifically, the front panel 10 and the support member 30 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the vehicle, and the support member 30 is close to the front side of the vehicle, and the front panel 10 is close to the rear side of the vehicle, and there is a gap between the two. The bottom guard plate 20 is arranged between the support member 30 and the front panel 10, and is fixedly connected to the front panel 10 and the support member 30 respectively, so as to form a stable support for the bottom guard plate 20. The structure of the bottom guard plate 20 connected to the front panel 10 and the support member 30 respectively is described in detail below in conjunction with specific drawings.
[0028] Continue to refer Figure 1 As shown in the figure, when the bottom guard plate 20 is set, one end thereof is fixedly connected to the front panel member 10 through the connecting component 60, and the other end is fixedly connected to the support member 30 through the snap-fit component 50, so that the opposite ends of the bottom guard plate 20 are fixedly connected to the front panel member 10 and the support member 30 respectively through different components.
[0029] For reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the connection between the front panel 10 and the bottom guard plate 20 is shown. The connection assembly 60 is a sleeve-fixed assembly. It specifically includes a connection column 61 provided on the front panel 10, and an elastic sleeve 62 sleeved on the connection column 61; and also includes a fixing sleeve 63 provided on the end of the bottom guard plate 20 facing the front panel 10.
[0030] When the bottom guard plate 20 is connected to the front panel 10, the elastic sleeve 62 is mounted on the connecting column 61, and then the fixing sleeve 63 is mounted on the elastic sleeve 62, and is fixedly connected to the connecting column 61 through the elastic sleeve 62. When the fixing sleeve 63 is mounted on the elastic sleeve 62, the elastic sleeve 62 undergoes elastic deformation to fix the fixing sleeve 63 to the connecting column 61, thereby stably connecting the bottom guard plate 20 to the front panel 10. In addition, the connecting column 61 is connected to the fixing sleeve 63 through the elastic sleeve 62, so that the connecting column 61 and the fixing sleeve 63 are not directly connected, thereby reducing the abnormal noise caused by shaking.
[0031] In a specific embodiment, the connecting column 61 may be a welding stud, which is welded and fixed to the front panel 10. Figure 3As shown in the figure, the nut portion of the welding stud is pressed against the side of the front panel 10 away from the bottom guard plate 20, and the threaded column passes through the front panel 10 and is at least partially exposed. When the welding stud is fixed to the front panel 10, the welding stud can be fixedly connected to the front panel 10 by welding.
[0032] When the elastic sleeve 62 is assembled, the elastic sleeve 62 is sleeved on the column with threads on the welding stud. When the above-mentioned matching method is adopted, when the fixing sleeve 63 is sleeved on the elastic sleeve 62, the elastic sleeve 62 can be deformed to form a concave-convex structure that matches the threads on the welding stud, thereby enhancing the stability between the elastic sleeve 62 and the welding stud, and at the same time enhancing the stability of the fixing sleeve 63 when fixedly connected to the connecting column 61.
[0033] It should be understood that the connecting column 61 provided in the embodiment of the present application can also be other types of columns, such as the connecting column 61 having a concave-convex structure or a notch, and other different types of columns can be used as the connecting column 61 in the embodiment of the present application. For the convenience of description, the welding stud is continued to be used as an example for description in the embodiment of the present application.
[0034] The elastic sleeve 62 provided in the embodiment of the present application has a certain elasticity and hardness to ensure that after the elastic sleeve 62 is elastically deformed, the fixing sleeve 63 can be stably connected to the connecting column 61. The risk of the fixing sleeve 63 being separated from the welding stud is reduced. As an example, the elastic sleeve 62 can be a rubber sleeve or a resin sleeve. Of course, the elastic sleeve 62 made of other materials can also be used, which will not be described one by one here.
[0035] When the elastic sleeve 62 is used to connect the connecting column 61 to the fixing sleeve 63, the elastic sleeve 62 may be open at one end or open at both ends. As a specific example, the elastic sleeve 62 provided in the embodiment of the present application is a cylindrical structure with one end open. Figure 3 As shown in , when the elastic sleeve 62 is sleeved on the connecting column 61, the connecting column 61 is inserted from the open end of the elastic sleeve 62, and the end of the connecting column 61 is wrapped by the elastic sleeve 62 to avoid direct contact between the end of the connecting column 61 and the fixing sleeve 63, which can further reduce the risk of abnormal noise. In addition, the elastic sleeve 62 with the above structure can also be pressed against the end of the connecting column 61 by the bottom end of the elastic sleeve 62 to enhance the stability of the connection between the connecting column 61 and the elastic sleeve 62.
[0036] As an optional solution, in order to facilitate the elastic sleeve 62 to be mounted on the connecting column 61, the elastic sleeve 62 is provided with a guide flare at an opening at one end of the front wall panel 10. When the connecting column 61 is inserted into the elastic sleeve 62, it can be guided by the guide flare, thereby facilitating the assembly of the two.
[0037] As an optional solution, in order to facilitate the fixing sleeve 63 to be mounted on the elastic sleeve 62, a guide flare is provided at one end of the fixing sleeve 63 facing the front panel 10, that is, a guide flare is provided at one end of the elastic sleeve 62 that is open and matches the connecting column 61. When the elastic sleeve 62 is inserted into the connecting column 61, it can be guided by the guide flare, thereby facilitating the assembly of the two.
[0038] The fixing sleeve 63 can be connected to the bottom guard plate 20 in different ways. For example, the fixing sleeve 63 and the bottom guard plate 20 are integrally formed, or the fixing sleeve 63 is fixedly connected to the bottom guard plate 20 by welding, riveting, bonding, etc. The above connection methods can be applied to the embodiments of the present application. As an example, the fixing sleeve 63 and the bottom guard plate 20 can be integrally formed. This ensures the structural strength between the fixing sleeve 63 and the bottom guard plate 20, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the bottom guard plate 20 and the front panel 20.
[0039] In addition, the fixing sleeve 63 may also adopt a structure with one end open or two ends open. As an example, the fixing sleeve 63 adopts a structure with one end open. And the guide expansion is set at the opening position to facilitate assembly. And when one end is open, the bottom guard plate 20 and the front panel 10 can be limited in the vehicle length direction when connected, avoiding the bottom plate directly abutting against the front panel 10, thereby enhancing the stability between the two.
[0040] As an optional solution, the cross section of the fixed sleeve 63 is a square structure, and the corresponding elastic sleeve 62 is a circular structure. When the fixed sleeve 63 is mounted on the elastic sleeve 62, the four side walls of the fixed sleeve 63 are respectively pressed against the elastic sleeve 62, and there is a gap between the corners of the fixed sleeve 63 and the elastic sleeve 62, so as to reduce the difficulty of assembling the two while ensuring the stable connection between the two. As an example, the edge length of the opening of the fixed sleeve 63 is 1mm smaller than the outer diameter of the elastic sleeve 62, that is, the two interfere with each other by 0.5mm after assembly, thereby ensuring the stability between the fixed sleeve 63 and the elastic sleeve 62.
[0041] Of course, in addition to the specific structures in the above examples, other similar structures may also be used, such as the elastic sleeve 62 is polygonal and the fixed sleeve 63 is circular; or the fixed sleeve 63 is rectangular and the elastic sleeve 62 is elliptical.
[0042] It should be understood that the connection assembly 60 provided in the embodiment of the present application is not limited to the above Figure 2 and Figure 3The structure shown may also adopt other similar structures. For example, the bottom guard plate 20 may also be connected to the connecting column 61 through a hoop, or may be fixed by other structures that can be fitted with the connecting column 61. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, only one end of the bottom guard plate 20 needs to be fitted on the connecting column 61, and the elastic sleeve 62 is fixedly connected to the connecting column 61 to connect the bottom guard plate 20 to the front panel 10 by interference fit. All of these solutions can be applied to the embodiment of the present application.
[0043] Continue to refer Figure 2 and Figure 3 The instrument panel assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application may also include a front wall sound insulation pad 40, which is used to reduce the sound insulation effect in the vehicle passenger compartment. When the front wall sound insulation pad 40 is specifically arranged, the front wall sound insulation pad 40 is stacked with the front wall panel 10 and is located on the side of the front wall panel 10 facing the bottom guard plate 20. When the two are connected, the front wall sound insulation pad 40 can be fixed on the front wall panel 10 by a clamp or a connector.
[0044] In addition, in order to facilitate the connection between the connecting column 61 and the bottom guard plate 20, the connecting column 61 passes through the front wall sound insulation pad 40 and is exposed. In a specific implementation, a hollow structure 41 for avoiding the connecting column 61 and the elastic sleeve 62 can be provided on the front wall sound insulation pad 40. For example, a through hole is provided on the front wall sound insulation pad 40, which can be a square hole, a circular hole or other types of holes. When the front wall sound insulation pad 40 is fixed to the front wall panel 10, the connecting column 61 and the elastic sleeve 62 are passed through the hollow structure 41 and exposed to facilitate the connection with the fixing sleeve 63.
[0045] When the fixing sleeve 63 is inserted into the hollow structure 41, the gap between the side wall of the hollow structure 41 and the fixing sleeve 63 is between 5 mm and 10 mm. For example, the gap between the two is 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, etc., any gap between 5 mm and 10 mm. This prevents the front wall sound insulation pad 40 from interfering with the connection between the fixing sleeve 63 and the connecting column 61. At the same time, it can also be taken into account that the hollow structure 41 will not affect the sound insulation effect of the front wall sound insulation pad 40.
[0046] Continue to refer Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the bottom guard plate 20 is connected to the support member 30, one end of the bottom guard plate 20 is fixedly engaged with the support member 30. That is, the two are fixed by connection. In specific implementation, the connection can be made by the locking assembly 50. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the clamping assembly 50 includes a first clamping member 51 arranged at one end of the bottom guard plate 20 facing the support member 30, and a second clamping member 52 correspondingly arranged on the support member 30. When the bottom guard plate 20 is connected to the support member 30, the first clamping member 51 can be clamped in the second clamping member 52, and the two can be fixed.
[0047] In a specific configuration, the first engaging member 51 and the second engaging member 52 can be matched buckles and slots. For example, the first engaging member 51 is a slot and the second engaging member 52 is a buckle; or, the first engaging member 51 is a buckle and the second engaging member 52 is a slot.
[0048] During specific assembly, firstly, one end of the bottom guard plate 20 is inserted into the elastic sleeve 62, so that the bottom guard plate 20 and the front panel 10 are fixed by inserting the parts. Then, the other end of the bottom guard plate 20 is fixed by clamping with the support member 30, so that the opposite ends of the bottom guard plate 20 are fixed to the support member 30 and the front panel 10 respectively, which improves the stability of the bottom guard plate 20 after assembly and reduces the shaking during the driving of the vehicle. In addition, when the bottom guard plate 20 is connected with the front panel 10 and the support member 30, the bottom guard plate 20 is fixed by plugging and fixing with the front panel 10, and the bottom guard plate 20 and the support member 30 are fixed by clamping, which facilitates the assembly of the bottom guard plate 20.
[0049] The embodiment of the present application also provides an interior decoration assembly, which includes any of the above-mentioned instrument panel assemblies. Specifically, the front panel of the interior decoration assembly is used to separate the front cabin of the car from the passenger cabin. The front cabin of the car is the cabin located at the front of the car, which is generally called the engine compartment in the traditional fuel vehicle industry.
[0050] The interior trim assembly enhances the stability of the bottom guard plate 20 by fixing the opposite ends of the bottom guard plate 20 to the support member 30 and the front panel member 10. In addition, the bottom guard plate 20 is plugged and fixed to the front panel member 10, and the bottom guard plate 20 is fixed to the support member 30 by snap-fitting, which facilitates the assembly of the bottom guard plate 20.
[0051] The embodiment of the present application also provides a car, which includes a body, and any of the above-mentioned instrument panel components or the above-mentioned interior decoration assembly arranged in the body. In the above technical solution, the stability of the bottom guard plate 20 is enhanced by fixing the opposite ends of the bottom guard plate 20 to the support member 30 and the front panel member 10 respectively. In addition, the bottom guard plate 20 is plugged and fixed to the front panel member 10, and the bottom guard plate 20 is fixed to the support member 30 by snap-fitting, which facilitates the assembly of the bottom guard plate 20.
[0052] One or more embodiments of this specification are intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications and variations that fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of one or more embodiments of this specification should be included in the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0053] The above are only specific implementations of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
