[0030] Embodiments of the present disclosure 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 are intended to be used to explain the present disclosure, but should not be understood as limiting the present disclosure.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the vehicle support column of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes an inner plate 1, a reinforcing plate 2 and a reinforcing member 3, wherein the inner plate 1 is connected to the reinforcing plate 2, and a cavity 101 is formed between the inner plate 1 and the reinforcing plate 2. The reinforcing member 3 is disposed in the cavity 101, and both the inner plate 1 and the reinforcing plate 2 are connected to the reinforcing member 3.

[0032] Among them, the vehicle support column can be the A-pillar, B-pillar, C-pillar, etc. of the vehicle.

[0033] The vehicle support column of the disclosed embodiment is provided with a reinforcement member 3 in a cavity 101 enclosed between an inner panel 1 and a reinforcing panel 2, and the reinforcement member 3 is connected to both the inner panel 1 and the reinforcing panel 2, so that the reinforcement member 3 not only strengthens the inner panel 1, but also strengthens the reinforcing panel 2, and the inner panel 1 and the reinforcing panel 2 can be connected by the reinforcement member 3, thereby effectively improving the rigidity and strength of the vehicle support column, so that the rigidity and strength of the vehicle support column are better.

[0034] Optionally, the inner plate 1 and the reinforcing plate 2 are welded.

[0035] For example, both the inner plate 1 and the reinforcing plate 2 are provided with flanges, and the flanges of the inner plate 1 and the flanges of the reinforcing plate 2 are welded.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle support column is the A-pillar of the vehicle, the inner panel 1 of the A-pillar is the A-pillar inner panel 11, the reinforcing plate 2 of the A-pillar is the A-pillar reinforcing plate 21, the A-pillar inner panel 11 is connected to the A-pillar reinforcing plate 21, and a cavity 101 is formed between the A-pillar inner panel 11 and the A-pillar reinforcing plate 21, and both the A-pillar inner panel 11 and the A-pillar reinforcing plate 21 are connected to the reinforcement 3.

[0037] Thereby, the rigidity and strength of the A-pillar are improved, and the A-pillar has greater rigidity and strength while the cross-section of the A-pillar is smaller, thereby ensuring the rigidity and strength of the entire vehicle while providing a good field of vision for the entire vehicle.

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the vehicle support column is the B-pillar of the vehicle, the inner panel 1 of the B-pillar is the B-pillar inner panel 12, the reinforcing plate 2 of the B-pillar is the B-pillar reinforcing plate 22, the B-pillar inner panel 12 is connected to the B-pillar reinforcing plate 22, and a cavity 101 is formed between the B-pillar inner panel 12 and the B-pillar reinforcing plate 22, and both the B-pillar inner panel 12 and the B-pillar reinforcing plate 22 are connected to the reinforcing member 3.

[0039] Thereby, the rigidity and strength of the B-pillar are improved, and the B-pillar has greater rigidity and strength while the cross-section of the B-pillar is smaller, thereby ensuring the rigidity and safety of the entire vehicle while providing a good field of vision for the entire vehicle.

[0040] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the vehicle support column further includes a colloid 4 , which is disposed in the cavity 101 , the reinforcement 3 is connected to the colloid 4 , and the inner plate 1 and the reinforcement plate 2 are both bonded to the colloid 4 .

[0041] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the colloid 4 includes a first colloid 41 and a second colloid 42, the reinforcement member 3 is bonded to the first colloid 41 and the second colloid 42, and the A-pillar inner plate 11 and the A-pillar reinforcement plate 21 are bonded to the first colloid 41 and the second colloid 42 respectively. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the colloid 4 includes a first colloid 41 and a second colloid 42 , the reinforcement 3 is bonded to the first colloid 41 and the second colloid 42 , and the B-pillar inner plate 12 and the B-pillar reinforcement plate 22 are bonded to the first colloid 41 and the second colloid 42 respectively.

[0042] By disposing the colloid 4 in the cavity 101 and bonding the inner panel 1 and the reinforcing panel 2 with the colloid 4, the inner panel 1 and the reinforcing panel 2 and the reinforcing member 3 are conveniently connected, thereby facilitating the assembly of the vehicle support column and improving the assembly efficiency of the vehicle support column.

[0043] Alternatively, if Figures 2 to 4As shown, the vehicle support column further includes a connecting frame 5 , which is disposed in the cavity 101 , the reinforcement 3 is connected to the connecting frame 5 , and the connecting frame 5 is connected to the colloid 4 .

[0044] By arranging the connecting frame 5 in the cavity 101 and connecting the reinforcing member 3 to the colloid 4 via the connecting frame 5, the rigidity and strength of the whole composed of the reinforcing member 3, the colloid 4 and the connecting frame 5 can be improved, thereby further improving the rigidity and strength of the vehicle support column.

[0045] Alternatively, if Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the connecting frame 5 includes a first connecting portion 51 , the distance between the first connecting portion 51 and the inner panel 1 is smaller than the distance between the rest of the connecting frame 5 and the inner panel 1 , and the first connecting portion 51 and the inner panel 1 are connected via a colloid 4 .

[0046] For example, Figure 2 As shown, when the vehicle support column is an A-column, the distance between the first connection portion 51 and the A-column inner plate 11 is smaller than the distance between the rest of the connection frame 5 and the A-column inner plate 11, and a first colloid 41 is provided between the first connection portion 51 and the A-column inner plate 11, and the first connection portion 51 and the A-column inner plate 11 are connected through the first colloid 41. The first colloid 41 is bonded to the A-column inner plate 11.

[0047] For example, Figure 3 As shown, when the vehicle support column is a B-pillar, the distance between the first connection portion 51 and the B-pillar inner plate 12 is smaller than the distance between the rest of the connection frame 5 and the B-pillar inner plate 12, and a first colloid 41 is provided between the first connection portion 51 and the B-pillar inner plate 12, and the first connection portion 51 and the B-pillar inner plate 12 are connected through the first colloid 41. The first colloid 41 is bonded to the B-pillar inner plate 12.

[0048] It can be understood that the closer the distance between the connecting frame 5 and the inner panel 1 is, the less the amount of colloid 4 used when connecting the connecting frame 5 and the inner panel 1 is. By connecting the first connecting part 51 to the inner panel 1, the amount of colloid 4 used can be reduced, thereby reducing the cost of the vehicle support column.

[0049] Optionally, the first connecting portion 51 has a first connecting surface facing the inner panel 1 , and the colloid 4 is disposed between the first connecting surface and the inner panel 1 .

[0050] This is beneficial to increase the connection area between the colloid 4 and the first connection portion 51 , thereby improving the connection reliability between the colloid 4 and the first connection portion 51 , and further improving the connection reliability between the reinforcement 3 and the inner panel 1 .

[0051] Alternatively, if Figures 1 to 3As shown, the connecting frame 5 includes a second connecting portion 52 , the distance between the second connecting portion 52 and the reinforcing plate 2 is smaller than the distance between the rest of the connecting frame 5 and the reinforcing plate 2 , and the second connecting portion 52 and the reinforcing plate 2 are connected via a colloid 4 .

[0052] For example, Figure 2 As shown, when the vehicle support column is an A-column, the distance between the second connection portion 52 and the A-column reinforcement plate 21 is smaller than the distance between the rest of the connection frame 5 and the A-column reinforcement plate 21, and a second colloid 42 is provided between the second connection portion 52 and the A-column reinforcement plate 21, and the second connection portion 52 and the A-column reinforcement plate 21 are connected through the second colloid 42. The second colloid 42 is bonded to the A-column reinforcement plate 21.

[0053] For example, Figure 3 As shown, when the vehicle support column is a B-pillar, the distance between the second connecting portion 52 and the B-pillar reinforcement plate 22 is smaller than the distance between the rest of the connecting frame 5 and the B-pillar reinforcement plate 22, a second colloid 42 is provided between the second connecting portion 52 and the B-pillar reinforcement plate 22, and the second connecting portion 52 and the B-pillar reinforcement plate 22 are connected through the second colloid 42. The second colloid 42 is bonded to the B-pillar reinforcement plate 22.

[0054] It is understandable that the closer the distance between the connecting frame 5 and the reinforcing plate 2 is, the less the amount of colloid 4 used when connecting the connecting frame 5 and the reinforcing plate 2. By connecting the second connecting part 52 to the reinforcing plate 2, the amount of colloid 4 used can be reduced, thereby reducing the cost of the vehicle support column.

[0055] Optionally, the second connecting portion 52 has a second connecting surface facing the reinforcing plate 2 , and the colloid 4 is disposed between the second connecting surface and the reinforcing plate 2 .

[0056] This is beneficial to increase the connection area between the colloid 4 and the second connection portion 52 , thereby improving the connection reliability between the colloid 4 and the second connection portion 52 , and further improving the connection reliability between the reinforcement member 3 and the reinforcement plate 2 .

[0057] Optionally, the connecting frame 5 is a connecting plate, and the connecting frame 5 is bent to form at least one bent portion 53 .

[0058] The connection frame 5 forms at least one bending portion 53 , which can be understood as: the connection frame 5 forms one or at least two bending portions 53 .

[0059] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the connecting frame 5 forms three bent portions.

[0060] By configuring the connecting frame 5 as a connecting plate with at least one bending portion 53, the connecting frame 5 has a simple structure and high strength and rigidity, thereby further improving the strength and rigidity of the vehicle support column while keeping the cost of the vehicle support column low.

[0061] Of course, in other embodiments, the connecting frame 5 may also be a frame structure.

[0062] Optionally, the colloid 4 is foaming glue.

[0063] For example, the colloid 4 is epoxy foaming glue.

[0064] When assembling the vehicle support column, the reinforcement 3, the colloid 4 and the connecting frame 5 can be placed in the cavity 101 first; then, the inner plate 1 and the reinforcement plate 2 are welded; thereafter, the vehicle support column is baked to allow the colloid 4 to foam in the cavity 101, thereby achieving connection between the colloid 4 and the inner plate 1 and the reinforcement plate 2.

[0065] By using the colloid 4 as a foaming glue, the connection reliability between the colloid 4 and the inner panel 1 and between the colloid 4 and the reinforcing panel 2 can be effectively improved, thereby improving the connection reliability between the reinforcing member 3 and the inner panel 1 and between the reinforcing member 3 and the reinforcing panel 2.

[0066] Optionally, the material of the connecting frame 5 includes nylon and glass fiber.

[0067] By configuring the connecting frame 5 to include nylon and glass fiber, the connecting frame 5 has higher rigidity and strength while being lighter in weight, which is beneficial to the lightweight design of the vehicle support column.

[0068] Optionally, the reinforcement member 3, the colloid 4 and the connecting frame 5 are integrally injection-molded.

[0069] For example, the connecting frame 5 and the reinforcing member 3 are first integrally injection-molded to form a connecting assembly; then, the connecting assembly and the colloid 4 are integrally injection-molded to form the reinforcing member 3, the colloid 4 and the connecting frame 5 as a whole.

[0070] The reinforcement member 3, the colloid 4 and the connecting frame 5 are integrally injection molded, which facilitates the connection of the reinforcement member 3, the colloid 4 and the connecting frame 5, thereby facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the vehicle support column and helping to reduce the cost of the vehicle support column.

[0071] Optionally, the vehicle support column further includes a connecting piece, which is disposed in the cavity 101 and connected to the reinforcement member 3 , and the connecting piece is welded to one of the inner plate 1 and the reinforcement plate 2 .

[0072] For example, the connecting piece is a metal sheet, the connecting piece, the reinforcing member 3 and the colloid 4 are integrally injection-molded, and the connecting piece is welded to the inner panel 1 .

[0073] Specifically, when assembling the vehicle support column, the connecting piece can be welded to the inner panel 1 or the reinforcing panel 2 first to pre-fix the reinforcing member 3 to the inner panel 1 or the reinforcing panel 2; then, the inner panel 1 and the reinforcing panel 2 are welded to fix the reinforcing member 3 in the cavity surrounded by the inner panel 1 and the reinforcing panel 2. Thus, the assembly of the vehicle support column is convenient and the assembly efficiency of the vehicle support column is improved.

[0074] Optionally, the reinforcement member 3 is a reinforcement tube, and the extension direction of the reinforcement tube is consistent with the extension direction of the vehicle support column.

[0075] By configuring the reinforcement member 3 as a reinforcement tube, the strength and rigidity of the reinforcement member 3 can be improved while the weight of the reinforcement member 3 is relatively light, which is beneficial to the lightweight design of the vehicle support column.

[0076] Optionally, the reinforcement member 3 is a hot air expansion tube.

[0077] For example, the hot gas expansion tube is a steel tube.

[0078] By configuring the reinforcement member 3 as a hot air expansion tube, the strength and rigidity of the reinforcement member 3 are increased when the cross-sectional area of ​​the reinforcement member 3 is constant, which is beneficial to further improve the strength and rigidity of the vehicle support column.

[0079] Optionally, there are multiple reinforcement members 3 , and the multiple reinforcement members 3 are arranged in the cavity 101 at intervals.

[0080] For example, Figure 3 As shown, there are two reinforcement members 3 , both of which are disposed in the cavity 101 , and the two reinforcement members 3 are disposed on both sides of the cavity 101 in the width direction, respectively.

[0081] The reinforcement member 3 is provided in the cavity 101 , which is beneficial to further improve the strength and rigidity of the vehicle support column.

[0082] The manufacturing method of the vehicle support column of the embodiment of the present disclosure:

[0083] The reinforcing member 3 and the connecting piece are embedded in the first injection mold, and the reinforcing member 3, the connecting piece and the connecting frame 5 are integrally injection-molded in the first injection mold to form a connecting assembly;

[0084] The connecting component is embedded in the second injection mold, and the connecting component and the colloid 4 are integrally injection molded in the second injection mold;

[0085] Weld the connecting piece to the inner plate 1 or the reinforcing plate 2;

[0086] The inner plate 1 is welded with the reinforcing plate 2 to form Figures 1 to 4 The structure shown;

[0087] The assembled vehicle support column is painted and baked, so that the colloid 4 is foamed and bonded with the inner plate 1 and the reinforcing plate 2, thereby completing the processing and manufacturing of the vehicle support column.

[0088] The vehicle support column of the disclosed embodiment has the advantages of high strength and high rigidity, and can greatly improve its strength and rigidity performance when the cross-section of the vehicle support column is small, while having the advantage of being lightweight.

[0089] The vehicle of the disclosed embodiment includes the vehicle support column described in any of the above embodiments.
