[0029] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the light-transmitting member 3 can be made of glass or other light-transmitting components so that light can pass through the light-transmitting member 3. The light-transmitting member 3 is installed on the outer panel 1. The outer panel 1 is provided with a first through hole 11 in a square shape. The inner panel 2 is provided with a first channel 21 with openings at both ends, which is similar to a pipe structure, one end of which faces outward and the other end faces inward, and its cross-sectional shape corresponds to the shape of the first through hole 11. The outer end of the first channel 21 is arranged corresponding to the first through hole 11, which means that there is a certain overlap between the opening at the outer end of the first channel 21 and the first through hole 11, so that light can pass through the first through hole 11, the light-transmitting member 3 and the outer end of the first channel 21, and then enter the vehicle interior cabin space through the inner end of the first channel 21, or the occupants in the vehicle interior cabin space can obtain a field of view outside the pillar structure through the light-transmitting member 3, the first through hole 11 and the first channel 21.

[0030] It can be understood that the first through hole 11 and the first channel 21 in the present embodiment can be designed to be any shape other than a square shape, and the shape of the first through hole 11 does not have to completely match the shape of the first channel 21. For example, the first channel 21 is circular and the first through hole 11 is triangular. As long as one end of the outer side of the first channel 21 corresponds to the first through hole 11, so that light can pass through the light-transmitting member 3, the first through hole 11 and the first channel 21, the specific shapes of the first through hole 11 and the first channel 21 are not limited.

[0031] Furthermore, the inner plate 2 includes a first inner plate 22 , the first inner plate 22 surrounds and forms the first channel 21 , and one end of the first inner plate 22 close to the outer side is connected to the outer plate 1 at an edge of the first through hole 11 .

[0033] In this way, the first inner panel 22 is connected to the outer panel 1, and the first channel 21 is formed by the first inner panel 22, so as to ensure the overall strength of the pillar structure, and also achieve the effect that light can pass through the light-transmitting member 3, the first through hole 11 and the first channel 21, so that the occupants in the vehicle cabin space can obtain a better external view and better light in the vehicle cabin space, thereby ensuring the cabin comfort.

[0034] Furthermore, the inner plate 2 also includes a second inner plate 23, which is connected to the outer plate 1, and the second inner plate 23 is provided with a second through hole 231. The first inner plate 22 is connected to the second inner plate 23 at an edge of the second through hole 231 near the inner end, and the second through hole 231 is connected to the first channel 21 near the inner end.

[0035] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the pillar structure can be used as an A-pillar, a B-pillar, etc., and is connected to the vehicle body through a second inner panel 23. The second inner panel 23 is provided with a second through hole 231. The first inner panel 22 is connected to the second inner panel 23 at the edge of the second through hole 231 (i.e., a partial area of ​​the second inner panel 23 surrounding the second through hole 231) by welding, riveting, etc. The second through hole 231 is connected to the first channel 21 at the inner end, so that the first inner panel 22, the second inner panel 23 and the outer panel 1 are fixedly mounted to each other, and light can enter the vehicle cabin space through the light-transmitting member 3, the first through hole 11, the first channel 21 and the second through hole 231, or provide a wider field of vision for the occupants in the vehicle.

[0036] In this way, a certain supporting effect is formed between the second inner panel 23 and the outer panel 1 by the first inner panel 22, so that the overall strength of the pillar structure is improved, and the occupant's field of vision is increased, driving safety is ensured, the lighting effect of the vehicle cabin space is improved, and the occupant comfort is improved.

[0037] Furthermore, the inner plate 2 further includes a third inner plate 24 , the third inner plate 24 is connected to the second inner plate 23 , the third inner plate 24 is provided with a third through hole 241 , and the third through hole 241 is connected to the second through hole 231 .
