[0016] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0017] 1. When the user fully opens or closes the ventilation pipe, the spring piece can automatically engage with the corresponding card slot, which can lock the opening and closing piece at this angle to ensure that the ventilation pipe can be ventilated or closed normally. In addition, the user does not need to control the angle of the opening and closing piece at all times, and does not affect the status of the user in the car, reducing the burden of the user ventilating through the one-piece EPP car ceiling;

[0018] 2. The design of fan-shaped groove and positioning block can limit the opening and closing piece to rotate only ninety degrees. It can not only ensure that the opening and closing piece can open the ventilation pipe to the maximum extent or completely separate the ventilation pipe, but also assist the user to align the spring piece with the slot, reducing the locking burden on the opening and closing piece.

[0033] 6. Dimension trimming: as required, the dimension of the one-piece molded automobile EPP ceiling 1 after solidification is trimmed, such as cutting, grinding, etc.

[0034] 7. Quality inspection: Inspect the finished product of the one-piece automobile EPP ceiling 1 to ensure that its quality meets the requirements.

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the reinforcement structure 2 includes a reinforcement steel bar 201 embedded and installed inside the one-piece EPP roof 1 of the automobile. A ventilation pipe 202 is fixedly connected to the surface of the reinforcement steel bar 201. One end of the ventilation pipe 202 penetrates to the outside of the one-piece EPP roof 1 of the automobile. The inside of the ventilation pipe 202 is rotatably connected to an opening and closing piece 203. The bottom of the opening and closing piece 203 sequentially penetrates the ventilation pipe 202 and extends to the outside of the one-piece EPP roof 1 of the automobile. At this time, both ends of the ventilation pipe 202 are connected by The opening and closing piece 203 is separated, and the surface of the opening and closing piece 203 is sleeved with a cylinder 204 fixedly connected to the ventilation pipe 202. Two card slots 205 are opened on the inner side of the cylinder 204. The angle between the two card slots 205 is 90 degrees. The intersection of the angle between the two card slots 205 coincides with the axis of the opening and closing piece 203. The surface of the opening and closing piece 203 is fixedly connected with a spring piece 206 that is engaged with the adjacent card slot 205; the horizontal cross-section shape of the card slot 205 is an isosceles triangle, and the spring piece 206 is The horizontal cross-section is V-shaped; the corners of the spring piece 206 and the slot 205 are rounded; the cylinder 204 is provided with a fan-shaped slot 207 connected to the slot 205, and the surface of the opening and closing piece 203 is fixedly connected with a positioning block 208 that is slidably connected to the fan-shaped slot 207, the spring piece 206 is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning block 208, and the positioning block 208 can rotate within the fan-shaped slot 207 at an angle of ninety degrees; a reserved slot 209 is provided at one end of the positioning block 208, and the spring piece 206 is fixedly connected to the fan-shaped slot 207. Inside the reserved groove 209; the bottom of the opening and closing piece 203 is fixedly connected with an adjusting cross bar 210, and both ends of the adjusting cross bar 210 are rounded; the bottom of the ventilation pipe 202 is fixedly connected and connected with a high-temperature resistant rubber air guide frame 211, and the bottom of the high-temperature resistant rubber air guide frame 211 passes through the outside of the one-piece molded automobile EPP roof 1; the interior of the ventilation pipe 202 is embedded with a dustproof net 212, and the dustproof net 212 is arranged on the side of the opening and closing piece 203 facing away from the high-temperature resistant rubber air guide frame 211.
