DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] As people's living standards improve, users have higher and higher requirements for the appearance of vehicles when purchasing vehicles. The rear bumper area needs to be equipped with a rear reflector to meet regulatory safety requirements. At the same time, exhaust pipe decorative cover components are also provided in sports-style models to meet styling needs. However, more parts will not only lead to visual clutter at the rear of the vehicle, but also cause certain difficulties in styling seams and assembly.

[0028] In order to make the technical personnel in this field better understand the present invention, the embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the embodiments shown below do not limit the contents of the utility model described in the claims. In addition, the entire contents of the structures represented by the following embodiments are not limited to those necessary for the solutions of the utility model described in the claims.

[0029] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The rear bumper with a rear reflective reflector provided by an embodiment of the utility model includes a decorative cover 10 and a rear reflective reflector 20. The decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 are arranged in pairs. The following is an illustration of a group of decorative covers 10 and rear reflective reflectors 20. Specifically, the decorative cover 10 is designed as a ring-shaped structure with closed edges, and its internal space is used for exhaust pipe decoration. It should be noted here that, at present, part of the exhaust pipe structure of the vehicle is arranged toward the bottom of the vehicle body, and the purpose of the decorative cover 10 is to simulate the exhaust pipe structure of a sports car and enhance the aesthetic appearance of the vehicle. Therefore, the interior of the ring-shaped structure of the decorative cover 10 can be used to set the rear reflective reflector 20, so that the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 are integrated into a single visible appearance component on the rear bumper 30, thereby reducing the number of components used at the rear end of the vehicle and making the rear end more integrated.

[0030] In the above structure, the decorative cover 10 structure with closed edges can provide good support and movement protection for the rear reflective reflector 20. At the same time, the rear reflective reflector 20 in the above structure can be pre-installed offline with the decorative cover 10. The single pre-installation position can ensure that the rear reflective reflector 20 is accurately installed to effectively reflect light. At the same time, the pre-installation will not occupy the routing time on the production line, making the assembly of the whole vehicle more efficient.

[0031] Correspondingly, the rear bumper 30 is currently generally a structure including upper and lower panel areas, while in the embodiment of the utility model, a single mounting hole 310 is opened in the non-seam area on the rear bumper 30, and the outer periphery of the decorative cover 10 is fixed in the mounting hole 310 by an assembly connector to achieve a stable connection between the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 on the rear bumper 30. The design of the single mounting hole 310 simplifies the structural installation process, reduces installation time and cost, and at the same time has a relatively weak degree of damage to the integrity of the rear bumper 30.

[0032] The rear bumper with a rear reflective reflector provided by the embodiment of the utility model has a single mounting hole 310 in a non-seam area on the rear bumper 30, which is often an area close to the ground, so as to match with the decorative cover 10 of the exhaust pipe so that the decorative cover 10 can be smoothly assembled. At the same time, the decorative cover 10 is designed as a closed ring structure to have an enclosed area, and the rear reflective reflector 20 is assembled in the enclosed area of ​​the decorative cover 10. The decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 can be pre-assembled offline and form an integral component. When assembling on the production line, it is only necessary to assemble the decorative cover 10 with the rear reflective reflector 20 and the mounting hole 310 on the rear bumper 30. This not only improves the normal assembly efficiency and reduces the vehicle wiring time, but also reduces the number of visible components at the rear of the vehicle, thereby improving the aesthetics of the vehicle. The number of openings and seams on the styling surface of the rear bumper 30 can also be reduced, thereby reducing the vehicle design and production costs.

[0033] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of the utility model, the annular edge of the decorative cover 10 is designed with an energy absorbing groove 110 structure opening toward the front side of the vehicle body. It should be noted here that the energy absorbing groove 110 structure, that is, the edge cross-sectional structure of the decorative cover 10 is a groove-shaped concave structure, and the energy absorbing groove 110 opening toward the front side of the vehicle body is to maintain a closed and complete structure at the rear of the vehicle. At the same time, the annular edge of the decorative cover 10 protrudes from the surface of the rear bumper 30 in the direction toward the rear of the vehicle body to form a protruding structure. When the vehicle is slightly rear-ended or scratched, the design of the energy absorbing groove 110 can absorb and disperse part of the energy and reduce the direct impact on the vehicle body. At the same time, compared with the structure of the rear bumper 30, the cost of the decorative cover 10 components is lower, and when the rear bumper 30 is damaged, the repair and replacement costs are lower.

[0034] In order to enhance the energy absorption effect of the decorative cover 10 and enable it to withstand more severe collision environments, in some embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of reinforcing ribs are arranged at intervals in the energy absorption groove 110. These reinforcing ribs can be arranged independently or crosswise. At the same time, each reinforcing rib is connected to the bottom of the energy absorption groove 110 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the energy absorption groove 110 as an integrated structure. The arrangement of the reinforcing ribs can significantly enhance the strength and energy absorption capacity of the energy absorption groove 110. The crosswise arranged reinforcing ribs further disperse the collision energy, enhance the energy absorption effect of the entire decorative cover 10, and make it less likely for external forces to contact the rear bumper 30 components during the collision, thereby enhancing the overall safety of the rear bumper 30.

[0035] It should be noted that the rear bumper 30 provided in the embodiment of the utility model can be produced by conventional manufacturing processes, such as injection molding, metal stamping, etc. The materials of the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 can be selected according to needs, such as plastic, metal or composite materials, and the setting of the reinforcement ribs can be adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to different collision conditions and vehicle designs. Correspondingly, the rear bumper 30 provided in the embodiment of the utility model not only has the protection of a traditional bumper and the decorative function of the vehicle, but also has significant energy absorption and collision energy dispersion effects, effectively improving the safety of the vehicle and the protection of passengers.

[0036] Furthermore, the assembly of the decorative cover 10 and the rear bumper 30, and the assembly of the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 can be achieved by adhesive connection, bolt connection, etc., and in order to improve the aesthetics of the assembled vehicle, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the rear bumper 30 provided in the embodiment of the utility model, the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 are limited by the first positioning member 120, and after the position is limited, they are connected into an integrated structure by a plurality of fixing clips 140. At the same time, the decorative cover 10 and the mounting hole 310 are limited by the second positioning member 130, and are also assembled and connected by a plurality of fixing clips 140. The limiting effect of the first positioning member 120 and the second positioning member 130 ensures the precise alignment of the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 during the assembly process on the rear bumper 30, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure and the convenience of installation.

[0037] It should be noted that the fixing clips 140 of the decorative cover 10 used to connect the rear bumper 30 and the rear retro-reflector 20 are designed to have the same structure for ease of production and manufacturing, and the same structure has a small error during production and installation.

[0038] It should be noted that in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first positioning member 120, the second positioning member 130 and the fixing card 140 are all arranged on the decorative cover 10 and are arranged toward the front side of the vehicle body, while the rear bumper 30 and the rear reflective reflector 20 are only provided with holes for connecting with the decorative cover 10. After the structure is assembled, the connecting structure of the fixing card 140 is located inside the vehicle body and cannot be observed from the rear of the vehicle, thereby improving the aesthetics of the vehicle and hiding and protecting the connecting structure.

[0039] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the first positioning member 120 includes at least a main positioning block 1210 and an auxiliary positioning block 1220. The main positioning block 1210 and the auxiliary positioning block 1220 are each provided with one, and both are provided on opposite sides of the decorative cover 10. It should be noted here that the purpose of providing the main positioning block 1210 and the auxiliary positioning block is to position the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflector 20 in two directions, so they are not provided in a straight line, such as they can be provided at the two intersection positions of the bisector and the edge of the decorative cover 10, or at positions close to the diagonal points; the design of the main positioning block 1210 and the auxiliary positioning block 1220 provides dual positioning guarantees and cooperates to ensure the precise alignment between the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflector 20, and enhance the stability of the structure.

[0040] It should be noted that the second positioning member 130 is preferably also provided with double positioning to achieve accurate connection between the decorative cover 10 and the rear bumper 30 , and its setting structure is similar to that of the first positioning member 120 , which will not be described in detail here.

[0041] In order to ensure the connection effect of the fixing card 140, in a specific embodiment of the utility model, a single fixing card 140 structure specifically includes a locking portion 1410 for clamping and locking. The locking portion 1410 encloses a slot area based on the edge of the decorative cover 10, so as to slide into and clamp and fix with the raised structure provided on the rear bumper 30 or the rear reflective reflector 20, and achieve the connection effect. At the same time, guide portions 1420 are also provided on both sides of the locking portion 1410. Preferably, two guide portions 1420 are provided and are symmetrically arranged about the locking portion 1410. At the same time, the guide portions 1420 and the locking portion 1410 are spaced apart, so as to guide the locking portion 1410 to the opening position on the rear bumper 30 or the rear reflective reflector 20 through the guide portions 1420, and make the locking portion 1410 accurately dock with the raised structure.

[0042] It should be noted that the setting of the guide portion 1420 enables the fixing card 140 to expand in the width or thickness direction, so that the fixing card 140 can be adapted to be inserted into the corresponding hole and the locking portion 1410 can be smoothly guided and connected; the locking portion 1410 and the guide portion 1420 of the fixing card 140 are designed so that the fixing card 140 can be stably inserted between the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20, and the interval setting of the guide portion 1420 also facilitates the smooth installation and disassembly of the fixing card 140, thereby improving the installation efficiency.

[0043] Furthermore, in order to maintain the connection strength between the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20 and between the decorative cover 10 and the mounting hole 310, in the rear bumper 30 provided in the embodiment of the utility model, at least six fixing clips 140 are arranged between the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20, and at least seven fixing clips 140 are arranged between the decorative cover 10 and the mounting hole 310. It should be noted that the more the fixing clips 140 are arranged, the stronger the connection between the decorative cover 10 and the rear bumper 30 and the rear reflective reflector 20 is, but the assembly difficulty and production cost are higher. According to design experience, this embodiment sets the number of fixing clips 140 connecting the decorative cover 10 with the rear reflective reflector 20 and the mounting hole 310 to save production costs while ensuring the overall stability and durability of the rear bumper 30.

[0044] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, the fixing cards 140 are preferably evenly arranged on the decorative cover 10. The evenly arranged here specifically means that the distance between the lines of two adjacent fixing cards 140 along the edge of the opening area of ​​the decorative cover 10 is equal, that is, the fixing cards 140 evenly divide the circumference of the opening edge area of ​​the decorative cover 10, thereby ensuring uniform force between the decorative cover 10 and the rear reflective reflector 20, avoiding stress concentration caused by uneven distribution of the fixing cards 140, and improving the uniformity and stability of the structure.

[0045] Furthermore, in the rear bumper 30 provided in the embodiment of the utility model, the rear reflective reflector 20 is the commonly used red color with a warning function, and the rear reflective reflector 20 completely fills the closed annular opening area of ​​the decorative cover 10. It should be noted that when the decorative cover 10 is only for decorative purposes to simulate the position of the exhaust pipe, the rear reflective reflector 20 completely fills the closed annular opening area of ​​the decorative cover 10, which can enable the rear of the vehicle to maintain a closed and complete configuration, thereby improving the integrity and aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0046] Furthermore, some other embodiments of the utility model also provide a vehicle, which is provided with a rear bumper with a rear reflective reflector provided by any of the above embodiments at the rear part. Since the above rear bumper 30 has the above technical effects, the vehicle also has the above technical effects, which will not be repeated herein. It should be noted that the above vehicle may be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle or a fuel vehicle, etc.
