The second free end 49 can achieve sealing between the shielding portion 42 and the rear door outer lower guard plate 2, and improve the sealing effect between the sealing strip lower corner 41 and the rear door outer lower guard plate 2.

[0063] Specifically, the direction of looking toward the inside of the vehicle through the appearance gap 71 between the outer side wall of the front door outer lower guard plate 1 and the outer side wall of the rear door outer lower guard plate 2 is a reference. Figure 5 When looking into the vehicle through the appearance gap 71, only the shielding portion 42 can be seen, and the side panel 6 located inside the appearance gap 71 cannot be seen.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, the shielding portion 42 includes a first free end 48, which is located at the front side of the shielding portion 42 and is relatively long. When the front door is closed, the front door outer lower guard plate 1 on the front door contacts the first free end 48 when the front door passes through, and presses the first free end 48 to move into the vehicle. After the front door is closed, the first free end 48 returns to its initial state.

[0065] Further, when the front door and the rear door are closed, the front door outer lower guard plate 1 can contact the first free end 48 on the shielding portion 42; Figure 5 As shown, there is a gap between the front door outer lower guard plate 1 and the first free end 48 on the shielding portion 42. This gap can prevent the front door outer lower guard plate 1 from squeezing the first free end 48 after the front door is closed, thereby reducing damage to the first free end 48 and extending the service life of the first free end 48 and the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip.

[0066] Optional, see Figure 6 As shown, in the width direction of the car, that is, the Y direction, the other end of the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip is a semi-annular structure, and the semi-annular structure wraps the sheet metal edge 31 of the rear door sheet metal 3 to achieve the connection and sealing between the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip and the sheet metal edge 31. Figure 5 As shown, in the width direction of the car, that is, in the Y direction, one end of the sealing strip lower corner 41 is provided with a shielding portion 42 for shielding the appearance gap 71 between the outer side wall of the front door outer lower guard plate 1 and the outer side wall of the rear door outer lower guard plate 2. The other end of the sealing strip lower corner 41 is a semi-annular structure, and the semi-annular structure wraps the sheet metal edging 31 of the rear door sheet metal 3. That is, in the width direction of the car, one end of the sealing strip lower corner 41 is used to shield the appearance gap 71, and the other end of the sealing strip lower corner 41 is used to connect with the sheet metal edging 31 of the rear door sheet metal 3.

[0067] Optional, see Figure 5 As shown, there is a third gap 74 between the semi-annular structure and the sheet metal edging 31 , and the third gap 74 can avoid assembly difficulties and interference between the rear door sheet metal 3 and the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip caused by the accumulation of automobile manufacturing tolerances.

[0068] Optional, see Figure 5 As shown, a corner insert 45 is disposed in the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip, and the corner insert 45 can enhance the clamping strength of the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip, as well as improve the overall hardness and texture of the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip.

[0069] Reference Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1 , in the width direction of the automobile, the corner insert 45 extends to the inner end and the outer end of the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip. Figure 4As shown, in the height direction of the vehicle, the corner insert 45 extends to the upper end and the lower end of the lower corner 41 of the sealing strip.

[0070] Reference Figure 5 As shown, the buckle 43 is connected to the corner insert 45, so that the clamping strength between the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 and the lower outer guard plate 2 of the rear door is high. Figure 6 As shown, there is a gap between the outer periphery of the buckle 43 and the protrusion 44 .

[0071] It is understandable that the materials of the sealing strip 4 and the corner insert 45 are selected according to the use requirements, and the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this. For example, the material of the other parts of the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 except the corner insert 45 and the buckle 43 is EPDM rubber material (EPDM rubber material is ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber), and the material of the corner insert 45 and the buckle 43 is PA66 (PA66 is also called nylon-66, which is polyhexamethylene adipamide).

[0072] Optionally, the sealing strip lower corner 41 is an integral injection molded part, that is, the shielding portion 42, the buckle 43, the protrusion 44 and the corner insert 45 in the sealing strip lower corner 41 are integrally injection molded. Integral injection molding has the advantages of stable structure and simple and convenient manufacturing.

[0073] Optional, see Figure 7 As shown, the corner insert 45 is provided with an insert through hole 47. When the sealing strip lower corner 41 is injection molded, the material of the sealing strip lower corner 41 except the corner insert 45 will enter the insert through hole 47, so that the injection molded sealing strip lower corner 41 has the advantage of high structural strength.

[0074] In the B-pillar door seam sealing structure of the embodiment of the present application, the assembly sequence between the sealing strip lower corner 41, the rear door sheet metal 3 and the rear door outer lower guard plate 2 is: first assemble the rear door outer lower guard plate 2 onto the rear door sheet metal 3, and then snap the sealing strip lower corner 41 into the snap hole 22 of the rear door outer lower guard plate 2 through the snap buckle 43, thus completing the installation between the sealing strip lower corner 41, the rear door sheet metal 3 and the rear door outer lower guard plate 2.

[0075] Reference Figure 1As shown, the B-pillar door seam sealing structure of the embodiment of the present application includes a front door sheet metal 5, a front door outer lower guard plate 1, a rear door sheet metal 3, a rear door outer lower guard plate 2 and a sealing strip 4. The lower side of the front door sheet metal 5 is connected to the front door outer lower guard plate 1, and the lower side of the rear door sheet metal 3 is connected to the rear door outer lower guard plate 2. The sealing strip 4 includes a sealing strip upper section 46 and a sealing strip lower corner 41, and the sealing strip upper section 46 and the sealing strip lower corner 41 are connected. The sealing strip upper section 46 is connected to the upper sheet metal edging 31 of the rear door sheet metal 3, and the sealing strip upper section 46 is used to seal the gap between the upper side of the front door sheet metal 5 and the upper side of the rear door sheet metal 3. The sealing strip lower corner 41 is located between the front door outer lower guard plate 1 and the rear door outer lower guard plate 2, and the sealing strip lower corner 41 is connected to the rear door outer lower guard plate 2. For further reference Figure 5 As shown, the end of the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 in the positive direction of the Y direction is provided with a shielding portion 42, and the front end of the shielding portion 42 extends into the range of the front door outer lower guard plate 1. The shielding portion 42 can shield the appearance gap 71 between the outer wall of the front door outer lower guard plate 1 and the outer wall of the rear door outer lower guard plate 2, thereby visually shielding the appearance gap 71, and avoiding the appearance defect of the inner side surrounding sheet metal 6 being seen through the appearance gap 71. The end of the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 in the negative direction of the Y direction wraps the sheet metal edging 31, so as to realize the connection between the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 and the sheet metal edging 31. The lower corner of the sealing strip 41 is connected to the rear door outer lower guard plate 2, which can avoid the appearance distortion of the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 due to the distortion of the sheet metal edging 31 when the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 is connected to the sheet metal edging 31 of the rear door sheet metal 3 on the inner side of the rear door outer lower guard plate 2, and the defect of poor connection quality between the lower corner of the sealing strip 41 and the sheet metal edging 31.
