Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile parts, and in particular to an automobile component, an automobile C-pillar and an automobile. Background Art
[0002] In the automobile production process, many components in the automobile assembly need to be assembled together by snap-fitting. For example, a first component in a certain automobile assembly is provided with a slot, and a second component is provided with a buckle. The first component and the second component are assembled by snapping the buckle into the slot.
[0003] Since there are many automobile components in a car, some of them are difficult to be snapped into the slot on the bracket structure on the C-pillar sheet metal during snap-in assembly. For example, when the snap on the C-pillar upper trim needs to be snapped into the slot of the bracket structure on the C-pillar sheet metal, due to the existence of blind spots in vision and / or narrow operating space, the snap on the second component in these automobile components will be difficult to be snapped into the slot on the first component. It takes a lot of time to adjust the posture of the second component so that the snap can be snapped into the slot and assembled in place, which affects the production rhythm and leads to low production efficiency. Among them, being assembled in place means that the set length of the snap extends from one side of the bracket structure through the slot into the other side of the bracket structure. If the length of the snap extending from the slot to the other side of the bracket structure is less than the set length, the snap is not assembled in place. If the snap is not assembled in place, the snap may fall out of the slot when the car is bumped and vibrated later. Utility Model Content

[0033] See also Figure 1-5 An automobile component of an embodiment of the utility model includes a first component 1 and a second component 2, a buckle 23 is installed on the second component 2, a slot 11 matched with the buckle 23 is provided on the first component 1, a guide member 22 is provided on the second component 2, a protrusion 12 is provided on a part of the edge of the slot 11 of the first component 1 protruding toward the insertion side, and the side wall of the protrusion 12 facing the slot 11 is configured as an inclined wall 121, and the guide member 22 is used to slide into the slot 11 along the inclined wall 121 to drive the buckle 23 to be inserted into the slot 11.
[0034] In this embodiment, in the automobile component, the first component 1 can be a bracket structure on the C-pillar sheet metal, and a card slot 11 is provided on the bracket structure. The second component 2 can be a C-pillar upper trim panel. In addition to the original clip 23, the C-pillar upper trim panel is different from the traditional automobile components in that the C-pillar upper trim panel is also provided with a guide member 22, and the bracket structure is also provided with a protrusion 12 protruding toward the insertion side at a part of the edge of the card slot 11, and the side wall of the protrusion 12 facing the card slot 11 is configured as an inclined wall 121. In this way, when installing the C-pillar upper trim, even if the operating space is relatively small or there is not enough vision to check the position of the buckle 23, the guide member 22 can slide into the slot 11 along the inclined direction of the inclined wall 121, and then the guide member 22 can bring the buckle 23 into the slot 11, so that the buckle 23 can be inserted into the slot 11, saving assembly time and improving assembly efficiency; and the buckle 23 can be inserted into the position of the edge of the slot 11 where the protrusion 12 is not provided, ensuring that the buckle 23 will not be assembled in place due to the presence of the protrusion 12. Here, "insertion side" means that the buckle 23 is used to insert into the slot 11 from this side.
[0035] It should be noted that Figure 1-9 The shape of the first component 1 shown is exemplified by the first component 1 being a bracket structure on a C-pillar sheet metal. Figure 1-9 The shape of the second component 2 shown is illustrated as the second component 2 being a C-pillar upper trim. However, the first component 1 and the second component 2 of the present invention are not limited thereto, and the first component 1 and the second component 2 may also be two other components in an automobile assembly. To avoid confusion, unless otherwise specified, the first component 1 in the following text is illustrated as a bracket structure on a C-pillar sheet metal, and the second component 2 is illustrated as a C-pillar upper trim.
[0036] Specifically, see Figure 2 , Figure 4-5 , let the extending direction of the card slot 11 be the length direction, the direction of the card slot 11 perpendicular to the extending direction be the width direction, the edges of the card slot 11 at both ends along the width direction are respectively the first edge 13 and the second edge 14, the protrusion 12 is located at least at a part of the first edge 13 and a part of the second edge 14; the buckle 23 is used to engage with the parts of the first edge 13 and the second edge 14 where the protrusion 12 is not provided.
[0037] Here, compared with the conventional card slot, the card slot 11 of this embodiment has a certain length, and its length direction is also its extension direction (such as Figure 2 , Figure 4-5 The width direction of the slot 11 is as shown in the X-axis direction; the width direction of the slot 11 is as shown in the Figure 2 , Figure 4-5The Z-axis direction shown; the depth direction of the slot 11, that is, the direction in which it passes through the first component 1 refers to the direction as shown Figure 2 , Figure 4-5 The Y-axis direction is shown.
[0038] Here, the first component 1 has the protrusion 12 at a part of the first edge 13 and at a part of the second edge 14, for example, Figure 5 As shown, the first component 1 has the protrusion 12 at the front half position of the first edge 13 and the front half position of the second edge 14, so that when the guide member 22 is inserted into the slot 11 along the inclined surface at the front part position of the right side of the slot 11, the buckle 23 driven by the guide member 22 can be inserted into the slot 11 at the rear part position of the slot 11 and assembled in place.
[0039] Here, combined Figure 8-9 , a specific explanation is given for the "assembly in place" of the buckle 23. Fig. 9 As shown, the buckle 23 is a standard part, which includes a main body and two upper and lower deformation arms 231. The main body and the two deformation arms 231 are an integrated structure. The main body is installed on the second component 2. The two deformation arms 231 are symmetrically arranged about the main body, and the deformation arms 231 are arranged at an acute angle with the main body. The two deformation arms 231 are used to deform in a similar direction, such as Fig. 9 As shown, the cross section of the deformable arm 231 is triangular, that is, the side faces of the two deformable arms 231 that are away from each other include a first side wall and a second side wall that are set at an angle, and the junction of the first side wall and the second side wall is recorded as the arm vertex. When the buckle 23 is inserted into the slot 11, the first side wall first contacts the corresponding first edge 13 or second edge 14, and then the second side wall contacts the corresponding first edge 13 or second edge 14. During the insertion of the buckle 23, the two deformable arms 231 will first deform toward each other, and then recover in a direction away from each other, thereby realizing the snap connection of the buckle 23, and the arm vertex of the deformable arm 231 is at a position far away from the first component 1, thereby ensuring that the buckle 23 is "assembled in place"; if the arm vertex is very close to the first component 1, or even the arm vertex is located inside the slot 11, that is, if the actual assembly position of the buckle 23 is at Fig. 9 If the buckle 23 in the position shown is moved to the right (opposite to the insertion direction) for a certain distance, the buckle 23 is not properly assembled and it is easy for the buckle 23 to slip out of the slot 11 to the right.
[0040] like Fig. 9As shown, the buckle 23 is a standard part, and the tail end (right end) of the deformable arm 231 also has a tail hook 2311. The tail hook 2311 is to ensure that when the buckle 23 is assembled, the buckle 23 will not be over-assembled and the entire buckle 23 passes through the slot 11. In this embodiment, the rear part of the first edge 13 and the second edge 14 does not have the protrusion 12, and then when the buckle 23 is inserted into the slot 11, the protrusion 12 at the front position will not hinder the buckle 23 from being assembled in place.
[0041] It should be noted that the aforementioned inclined wall 121 can be a straight surface, or a curved surface, such as an arc surface, or a combination of a plane and a curved surface, as long as it has an inclination angle. The inclination angle of the inclined wall 121 refers to the angle between the inclined wall 121 and the penetrating direction of the card slot 11, that is, the angle between the inclination direction of the inclined wall 121 and the Y axis. In addition, it can be understood that since the inclined wall 121 is used to play a guiding role, the inclined wall 121 is inclined away from the center of the card slot 11 from the root to the top of the protrusion, or in other words, the protrusion 121 is arranged around the edge of the card slot 11, and the protrusion 121 is inclined outward toward the wall body (inclined wall 121) on one side of the card slot 11 to form an open trumpet shape.
[0042] Specifically, see Figure 5 The edge of the first component 1 at one end of the slot 11 in the length direction is the third edge, and the protrusion 12 is located at a portion of the first edge 13, a portion of the second edge 14 and the third edge.
[0043] Here, the first component 1 also has a protrusion 12 at the third edge, and the entire protrusion 12 is in a shape that semi-surrounds the slot 11. In this way, the inclined wall 121 is also in a shape that semi-surrounds the slot 11, that is, the extension direction of the inclined wall 121 semi-surrounds the slot 11. In this way, the assembly efficiency of the buckle 23 can be further increased through the guiding cooperation between the guide member 22 and the inclined wall 121.
[0044] Specifically, see Figure 2 , Figure 6-7 as well as Fig. 9 The guide member 22 is a symmetrical structure, and the side surface of the guide member 22 includes two symmetrically arranged guide slopes 221. From the end of the guide member 22 away from the second component 2 to the other end, the distance between the two guide slopes 221 gradually increases, and the two guide slopes 221 are connected by an arc surface 222 at the end of the guide member 22 away from the second component 2. The end of the guide member 22 away from the second component 2 is the part of the guide member 22 that is first inserted into the card slot 11.
[0045] Here, the side surface of the guide member 22 includes two symmetrically arranged guide slopes 221, and the distance between the two guide slopes 221 gradually increases from one end of the guide member 22 away from the second component 2 to the other end. In this way, when assembling, the guide member 22 can guide and cooperate with the inclined wall 121 at the first edge 13 through the upper guide slope 221, so that the guide member 22 drives the buckle 23 to be inserted into the card slot 11, and the guide member 22 can also guide and cooperate with the inclined wall 121 at the second edge 14 through the lower guide slope 221, so that the guide member 22 drives the buckle 23 to be inserted into the card slot 11, further improving the installation efficiency of the buckle 23 being inserted into the card slot 11. Among them, the two guide slopes 221 are connected together through the arc surface 222, which can prevent the guide member 22 and the first component 1 from being worn or damaged during assembly, and can further improve the efficiency of the guide member 22 being inserted into the card slot 11, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the buckle 23.
[0046] Specifically, see Figure 2 , Figure 6-7 as well as Fig. 9 The two guiding inclined surfaces 221 are symmetrical about a setting surface, the setting surface is perpendicular to the width direction of the slot 11, the buckle 23 is a symmetrical structure, and the setting surface and the symmetry surface of the buckle 23 are coplanar.
[0047] Here, not only the guide member 22 is a symmetrical structure, but the buckle 23 as a standard part is also a symmetrical structure. The buckle 23 is also symmetrical about the set plane, so that the buckle 23 can be inserted into the slot 11 at the same posture angle as the guide member 22.
[0048] Specifically, see Figure 4-5 and Figure 7 A support 21 is protrudingly provided on the second component 2, and a plurality of lugs 211 are arranged on the support 21 in sequence and at intervals, at least one of the lugs 211 is configured as the guide member 22, and a support plate 212 is provided between adjacent lugs 211, and the buckle 23 is used to be installed on the support plate 212.
[0049] here, Figure 4-5 and Figure 7 As shown, the frontmost lug 211 is configured as the aforementioned guide member 22, and the buckle 23 is installed on the support plate 212 between two adjacent lugs 211, wherein the two guide slopes 221 can be symmetrical about the support plate 212, and the buckle 23 installed on the support plate 212 achieves symmetry about the support plate 212, which is equivalent to the guide member 22 and the buckle 23 being symmetrical about the set planes.
[0050] Optionally, the angle between the inclined direction of the inclined wall 121 and the penetrating direction of the slot 11 is in the range of 40°-50°. For example, the angle between the inclined wall 121 and the penetrating direction of the slot 11 is 45°. Under this angle range, in addition to ensuring that the inclined wall 121 is longer in the inclined direction, the guiding effect on the guide member 22 can also be guaranteed.
[0051] See also Figure 5 and Figure 2 , the protrusion 12 is a hollow structure. The protrusion 12 is a hollow structure, which means: Figure 5 As shown, when viewing the side of the first component 1 facing the second component 2, the side of the first component 1 has a convex structure; Figure 2 As shown, when viewing the side of the first component 1 away from the second component 2, the first component 1 has a concave structure. In this way, the protrusion 12 can be integrally formed when the first component 1 is stamped, and the molding is relatively simple, and the weight will not be increased due to the setting of the protrusion 12.
[0052] Another embodiment of the utility model provides a car C-pillar, comprising a C-pillar sheet metal and the above-mentioned car assembly, wherein the first component 1 of the car assembly is a bracket structure installed on the C-pillar sheet metal, and the second component 2 of the car assembly is a C-pillar upper trim.
[0053] Since the technical improvement and technical effect of the automobile C-pillar are the same as those of the automobile component, the automobile C-pillar will not be described in detail.
[0054] Yet another embodiment of the present invention provides an automobile, comprising the automobile component as described above, or comprising the automobile C-pillar as described above.

[0056] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.
[0057] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
