[0032] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0033] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 8 A hinge cover 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0034] The hinge cover 100 of the embodiment of the utility model includes a ring plate 1, which has a first end and a second end opposite to each other along its extension direction, and an outer surface 17 and an inner surface 18 opposite to each other along its thickness direction. The first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 are detachably connected, and the ring plate 1 is surrounded by a through hole for the hinge to pass through. A limiting groove 15 is provided on the end surface of the first end of the ring plate 1, and the limiting groove 15 is spaced apart from the inner surface 18 and the outer surface 17 of the ring plate 1. A first limiting protrusion 13 is extended from the end surface of the second end of the ring plate 1, and the first limiting protrusion 13 is fitted in the limiting groove 15 so that the first end of the ring plate 1 is connected with the second end of the ring plate 1. After the suitcase is opened, the surface of the ring plate 1 seen by the user is the outer surface 17 of the ring plate 1.
[0035] According to the hinge decorative cover 100 of the embodiment of the utility model, a limiting groove 15 spaced from the inner surface 18 and the outer surface 17 of the ring plate 1 is set on the end face of the first end of the ring plate 1. After the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 are connected, the first limiting protrusion 13 at the second end of the ring plate 1 is fitted in the limiting groove 15. The limiting groove 15 limits the first limiting protrusion 13 on the two opposite side surfaces in the thickness direction of the ring plate 1, so as to achieve relative fixation of the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 in the thickness direction of the ring plate 1, thereby effectively ensuring the connection between the first end of the ring plate 1 and the second end of the ring plate 1, and the appearance of the vehicle at the hinge decorative cover 100 is more beautiful.
[0036] It should be noted that the first end of the ring plate 1 is connected with the second end of the ring plate 1, which means that the outer surface 17 of the ring plate 1 at the first end is smoothly connected with the outer surface 17 of the ring plate 1 at the second end, that is, there is no height misalignment at the connection.
[0037] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the hinge cover 100 further includes at least two positioning posts 2 , and the at least two positioning posts 2 are discretely arranged on the inner surface 18 of the hinge cover 100 .
[0038] The luggage compartment side panel 300 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes corresponding to the positioning posts 2. After the free ends of the positioning posts 2 pass through the corresponding positioning holes, they are engaged with the stoppers or melted by ultrasonic welding equipment to ensure that the inner surface 18 of the ring plate 1 is closely attached to the outer surface 17 of the side panel 300. At this time, the design of the plurality of positioning posts 2 effectively ensures the connection reliability between the hinge cover 100 and the side panel 300.
[0039] Specifically, the shape of the inner surface 18 of the ring plate 1 matches the shape of the outer surface 17 of the side panel 300, and both are irregular curved surfaces. There are six positioning posts 2, two of which are adjacent to the first end of the ring plate 1, two of which are adjacent to the second end of the ring plate 1, and two of which are adjacent to the middle of the ring plate 1.
[0040] In some embodiments, Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first end of the ring plate 1 includes a first plate 11 and a second plate 12 arranged at intervals along the thickness direction of the ring plate 1, a limiting groove 15 is defined between the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, and the first plate 11 is provided with a clamping hole 111 connected to the limiting groove 15. The first limiting protrusion 13 is provided with a second limiting protrusion 14 extending toward the first plate 11 along the thickness direction of the ring plate 1, and the second limiting protrusion 14 is fitted in the clamping hole 111.
[0041] That is, the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 are fixedly connected by the cooperation between the second limiting protrusion 14 and the card hole 111, thereby facilitating the connection between the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 and increasing the installation efficiency of the hinge cover 100 on the side panel 300.
[0042] Specifically, the second limiting protrusion 14 is arranged at the free end of the first limiting protrusion 13. When the first limiting protrusion 13 is inserted into the limiting groove 15, the second limiting protrusion 14 slides with the first plate 11 to make the first plate 11 bend in the direction away from the second plate 12. After the first limiting protrusion 13 is inserted into the limiting groove 15, the second limiting protrusion 14 falls into the clamping hole 111, and the first plate 11 rebounds and resets, thereby realizing the clamping connection between the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1.
[0043] In some embodiments, the hole 111 is a through hole that penetrates the first plate 11 .
[0044] Therefore, when the ring plate 1 is an integrally formed injection molded part, the molding difficulty of the clamping hole 111 is lower and the molding reliability is higher. Moreover, it is possible to observe whether the second limiting protrusion 14 is properly matched with the clamping hole 111 through the opening exposed by the clamping hole 111, thereby improving the clamping reliability of the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1.
[0045] In some embodiments, there are at least two locking holes 111 , and all the locking holes 111 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the ring plate 1 .
[0046] The provision of at least two clamping holes 111 enables the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 to form a multi-point clamping positioning, thereby further improving the clamping reliability of the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1.
[0047] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, there are two clamping holes 111 , which are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the ring plate 1 , and the clamping holes 111 are strip-shaped holes, extending along the width direction of the ring plate 1 .
[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the surface of the first plate 11 away from the limiting groove 15 is the inner surface 18 of the ring plate 1 at the first end, and the surface of the second plate 12 away from the limiting groove 15 is the outer surface 17 of the ring plate 1 at the first end.
[0049] Therefore, after the second limiting protrusion 14 is engaged in the clamping hole 111 to realize the clamping connection between the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1, the clamping hole 111 and the second limiting protrusion 14 are hidden on one side of the inner surface 18 of the ring plate 1, effectively preventing the clamping hole 111 and the second limiting protrusion 14 from being exposed and affecting the appearance of the vehicle.
[0050] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, the side of the first plate 11 facing the second plate 12 includes a first limiting surface 112 and a first guiding inclined surface 113 connected to each other. The first limiting surface 112 abuts against the first limiting protrusion 13, and the first guiding inclined surface 113 is inclined relative to the first limiting surface 112 in a direction away from the second plate 12.
[0051] Therefore, during the process of inserting the first limiting protrusion 13 into the limiting groove 15, through the sliding cooperation between the second limiting protrusion 14 and the first guiding inclined surface 113, under the guidance of the first guiding inclined surface 113, the first plate 11 can be smoothly pushed to bend in the direction away from the second plate 12, so that the first limiting protrusion 13 can smoothly enter the limiting groove 15 and cooperate in the clamping hole 111, and the clamping difficulty of the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 is low.
[0052] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, the second limiting protrusion 14 has a second limiting surface 141 and a second guiding inclined surface 142 which are opposite to each other along the circumference of the ring plate 1. The second limiting surface 141 abuts against the inner wall surface of the clamping hole 111 to prevent the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 from separating. The end of the second guiding inclined surface 142 away from the first limiting protrusion 13 is inclined toward the second limiting surface 141 relative to the first limiting protrusion 13.
[0053] Therefore, during the process of inserting the first limiting protrusion 13 into the limiting groove 15, through the sliding cooperation between the first plate 11 and the second guiding bevel 142, under the guidance of the second guiding bevel 142, the first plate 11 can be smoothly pushed to bend in the direction away from the second plate 12, so that the first limiting protrusion 13 can smoothly enter the limiting groove 15 and cooperate in the clamping hole 111, and the clamping difficulty of the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 is low.
[0054] Specifically, Figure 7 As shown, a first guiding inclined surface 113 is provided on the first plate 11 , and a second guiding inclined surface 142 is provided on the second limiting protrusion 14 . The first guiding inclined surface 113 and the second guiding inclined surface 142 are parallel to each other.
[0055] In some embodiments, the limiting groove 15 extends along the width direction of the ring plate 1 and penetrates the ring plate 1. At this time, when the width of the ring plate 1 is constant, the internal space of the limiting groove 15 is larger, and the volume of the first limiting protrusion 13 matched in the limiting groove 15 is also larger, thereby effectively ensuring the connection strength between each of the first limiting protrusion 13, the second plate 12 and the first plate 11 and the rest of the ring plate 1, and the clamping strength between the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 is higher.
[0056] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, along the width direction of the ring plate 1 , the inner surface 18 at at least one end of the ring plate 1 is provided with a reinforcing rib 19 .
[0057] The reinforcing rib 19 is at an angle to the ring plate 1 , thereby effectively improving the overall structural strength of the hinge cover 100 and effectively preventing the hinge cover 100 from bending and affecting the reliability of the connection with the side panel 300 .
[0058] In some embodiments, the ring plate 1 and the positioning column 2 are integrally formed injection molded parts, so that the hinge cover 100 has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.
[0059] Specifically, the hinge cover 100 is injection molded using PP-TD20 material. Figure 2 As shown, in order to further reduce the manufacturing cost of the hinge cover 100 and to facilitate the positioning column 2 to be melted and deformed or pressed and deformed by the stop member, the positioning column 2 is set to be a hollow structure.
[0060] The vehicle according to the present invention includes a hinged decorative cover 100 according to any one of the above embodiments.
[0061] The technical advantages of the vehicle according to the present invention are the same as the technical advantages of the hinged decorative cover 100 of the above-mentioned embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.
[0062] Specifically, the vehicle further includes a side panel 300 and a gooseneck hinge 200. The hinge cover 100 is first inserted into the positioning hole of the side panel 300 through the positioning column 2, and then is covered on the free end of the positioning column 2 through a stopper, or the free end of the positioning column 2 is melted and pressed against the inner surface 18 of the side panel 300 by an ultrasonic device. At this time, the first end and the second end of the ring plate 1 are in a separated state. When the side panel 300 equipped with the hinge cover 100 is installed on the vehicle, the left and right hands first pull the first and second ends of the ring plate 1 away from each other to form a gap between the first and second ends for the gooseneck hinge 200 to pass through. After the gooseneck hinge 200 passes through the gap, the left and right hands push the first and second ends of the ring plate 1 towards each other to complete the clamping of the first and second ends of the ring plate 1, thereby completing the installation of the hinge cover 100.
