[0033] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below.

[0034] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 10 A spare tire well assembly 10 according to an embodiment of the utility model is described, and a vehicle including the spare tire well assembly 10 is also proposed.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the spare tire well assembly 10 includes: a rear floor connecting plate 11, the rear floor connecting plate 11 is connected to the rear floor 20, and a first spare tire well 14 is formed on the rear floor connecting plate 11. Specifically, the rear floor connecting plate 11 is connected to the rear floor 20 in the front-to-back direction, and the rear floor connecting plate 11 surrounds the first spare tire well 14, and the first spare tire well 14 can be used to place items.

[0036] Connect Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, the spare tire well assembly 10 further includes: a rear floor panel 12, the rear floor panel 12 is disposed below the rear floor connecting plate 11, and the rear floor panel 12 and the rear floor connecting plate 11 are connected to each other, a second spare tire well 15 is formed on the rear floor panel 12, and the second spare tire well 15 is connected to the first spare tire well 14. Specifically, the rear floor panel 12 is located below the rear floor connecting plate 11 in the height direction, that is, the rear floor panel 12 is located below the first spare tire well 14, the rear floor panel 12 is recessed downward to form the second spare tire well 15, the upper end of the rear floor panel 12 is fixedly connected to the rear floor connecting plate 11, and the second spare tire well 15 is connected to the first spare tire well 14, and the first spare tire well 14 and the second spare tire well 15 cooperate to place items.

[0037] A step is formed between the second spare tire well 15 and the first spare tire well 14, and the step can be used to avoid a muffler and an exhaust pipe, etc. The first spare tire well 14 and the second spare tire well 15 realize a two-layer stepped structure, deepening the spare tire well assembly 10, thereby increasing the storage space.

[0038] Thus, the rear floor connecting plate 11 encloses a first spare tire well 14 , and the rear floor panel 12 encloses a second spare tire well 15 . The first spare tire well 14 and the second spare tire well 15 realize a two-layer stepped structure, thereby increasing the storage space of the spare tire well assembly 10 .

[0039] Combination Figure 3-Figure 6 As shown, the first embodiment of the present utility model is described:

[0040] The spare tire well assembly 10 further includes a cross beam 16, which extends in the width direction of the vehicle, and one end of the cross beam 16 in the height direction is connected to the upper end of the rear floor connecting plate 11, and the other end in the height direction is connected to the lower end of the rear floor connecting plate 11. Specifically, the rear floor connecting plate 11 includes a bottom plate 111, a side plate 112, and a flange 113, the bottom plate 111 and the side plate 112 enclose a first spare tire well 14, and the flange 113 is connected to the rear floor 20.

[0041] like Figure 6 As shown, for some vehicle models, such as PHEV models, the spare tire pit assembly 10 of this type of vehicle needs to avoid components such as mufflers and exhaust pipes. Therefore, the size difference between the first spare tire pit 14 and the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction is relatively large to avoid components such as mufflers and exhaust pipes.

[0042] Furthermore, for this type of vehicle, the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction is L1, and L1 satisfies the relationship: 20mm≤L1≤210mm. Since the installation space of the rear floor connecting plate 11 is limited, the size of the rear floor connecting plate 11 has a fixed value, and because it is necessary to avoid components such as mufflers and exhaust pipes, the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction is between 20 mm and 210 mm. Under the same depth of the rear floor panel 12, the larger the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction, the larger the volume of the second spare tire pit 15, and the accommodating space of the second spare tire pit 15 is increased as much as possible.

[0043] The spare tire well assembly 10 further includes: a domain controller, which is arranged in the first spare tire well 14. For this type of vehicle, the second spare tire well 15 cannot be used to place the domain controller, but can be used to store customer items, and the domain controller is arranged in the first spare tire well 14.

[0044] like Figure 3-Figure 6As shown, the spare tire well assembly 10 further includes: a reinforcing plate 13, which is disposed below the rear floor panel 12 and extends in the front-to-back direction, and the two ends of the reinforcing plate 13 in the front-to-back direction are respectively connected to the two sides of the rear floor panel 12 in the front-to-back direction. Specifically, in the height direction, the reinforcing plate 13 is located below the rear floor panel 12, and the reinforcing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the rear floor panel 12, so that the thickness of the rear floor panel 12 can be correspondingly reduced, thereby ensuring the strength and modality of the rear floor panel 12 and realizing a lightweight design.

[0045] Combination Figure 7-10 As shown, the second embodiment of the present utility model is described:

Specifically, the rear floor connecting plate 11 includes: a bottom plate 111, a side plate 112 and a flange 113, the bottom plate 111 and the side plate 112 surround a first spare tire well 14, and the flange 113 is connected to the rear floor 20.

[0047] In the height direction, the upper end of the cross beam 1 is connected to the upper end of the rear floor connecting plate 11, that is, the upper end of the cross beam 16 is connected to the lower surface of the flange 113; the lower end of the cross beam 16 is connected to the lower end of the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the upper end of the rear floor panel 12, that is, the lower end of the cross beam 16 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bottom plate 111 and the upper surface of the rear floor panel 12, that is, when the lower end of the cross beam 16 is fixedly connected to the connection between the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12, welding can be used, which is simple to operate and has high connection strength. The cross beam 16 is inclined toward the rear along the height direction. The cross beam 16 supports the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12.

[0048] like Fig.10 As shown, for some vehicle models, such as EV models, the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction can be appropriately increased, and the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction is L2, and L2 satisfies the relationship: 410mm≤L2≤420mm, and the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction is between 410㎜-420㎜, that is, the size of the rear floor panel 12 in the front-to-back direction is between 410㎜-420㎜. Under the same depth of the rear floor panel 12, the larger the size of the second spare tire pit 15 in the front-to-back direction, the larger the volume of the second spare tire pit 15, and the accommodating space of the second spare tire pit 15 is increased as much as possible.

[0049] In some embodiments, the spare tire well assembly 10 also includes: a domain controller. For this type of vehicle, the second spare tire well 15 has sufficient accommodation space, and the domain controller can be set in the second spare tire well 15.

[0050] Combination Figure 7-10 As shown, the spare tire well assembly 10 further includes: a reinforcing plate 13, which is disposed below the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12 and extends in the front-rear direction. Specifically, in the height direction, the reinforcing plate 13 is located below the rear floor panel 12 and the rear floor connecting plate 11, and the reinforcing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the rear floor panel 12, which can reduce the thickness of the rear floor panel 12 accordingly, thereby ensuring the strength and modality of the rear floor panel 12 and achieving a lightweight design.

[0051] like Fig. 9 As shown, the reinforcing plate 13 includes: a first reinforcing portion 131 and a second reinforcing portion 132, the first reinforcing portion 131 and the second reinforcing portion 132 are connected to each other, the first reinforcing portion 131 is arranged below the rear floor connecting plate 11, and the two ends of the second reinforcing portion 132 in the front-to-back direction are respectively connected to the two sides of the rear floor panel 12 in the front-to-back direction. In other words, there are two second reinforcing portions 132, and the two ends of the first reinforcing portion 131 in the front-to-back direction are respectively fixedly connected to the two second reinforcing portions 132, the first reinforcing portion 131 is located below the connecting plate of the rear floor panel 12, and the second reinforcing portion 132 is connected to the side of the rear floor panel 12 in the front-to-back direction, so as to improve the structural strength and modality of the rear floor panel 12, and even if the thickness of the rear floor panel 12 is reduced to achieve a lightweight design, the strength and modality of the rear floor panel 12 can also be guaranteed.

[0052] In some embodiments, the spare tire well assembly 10 further includes: a seal, which is bonded between the lower end of the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the upper end of the rear floor panel 12. Specifically, a seal is provided between the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear bottom plate 111, and the seal is bonded to the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12 to connect the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12.

[0053] Furthermore, the contact length between the seal and the lower end of the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the upper end of the rear floor panel 12 is d, and d satisfies the relationship: d≥10mm. Specifically, the contact length between the seal and the lower end of the rear floor connecting plate 11 in the width direction is greater than 10mm, and the contact length between the seal and the upper end of the rear floor panel 12 in the width direction is greater than 10mm, thereby ensuring the connection strength between the rear floor connecting plate 11 and the rear floor panel 12, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the spare tire well assembly 10.

[0054] like Figure 5 and Fig. 9 As shown, the depth of the first spare tire pit 14 is h1, and h1 satisfies the relationship: 160mm≤h1≤180mm. Limited by the installation space inside the vehicle, the depth of the first spare tire pit 14 ranges from 160㎜ to 180㎜, that is, the depth of the rear floor connecting plate 11 ranges from 160㎜ to 180㎜. If it is less than 160㎜, the depth of the first spare tire pit 14 is small, and the volume of the first spare tire pit 14 is small, that is, the accommodation space of the first spare tire pit 14 is small, and the space is not fully utilized.

[0055] Furthermore, the depth of the second spare tire pit 15 is h2, and h2 satisfies the relationship: 110mm≤h2≤130mm. Specifically, the depth of the second spare tire pit 15 is between 110㎜-130㎜, that is, the depth of the rear floor panel 12 is between 110㎜-130㎜. Limited by the vehicle structure, the depth of the rear floor panel 12 does not exceed 130㎜; if the depth of the rear floor panel 12 is less than 110㎜, the depth of the second spare tire pit 15 is small, and the volume of the second spare tire pit 15 is small, that is, the accommodation space of the second spare tire pit 15 is small, and the space is not fully utilized.
