[0046] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0047] Embodiment 1

[0048] This embodiment relates to a vehicle body structure, the overall structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in , the vehicle body structure includes a front windshield lower cross beam 1, an A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2, and a roof structure 3, all of which are made of carbon fiber. The A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 includes side portions 201 arranged on the left and right sides of the front windshield lower cross beam 1, and a top portion 202 arranged between the side portions 201, the top portion 202 is connected to the roof structure 3, the side portion 201 is connected to the corresponding side of the front windshield lower cross beam 1, and an annular force transmission structure is formed between the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 and the front windshield lower cross beam 1.

[0049] The vehicle body structure of this embodiment is made of carbon fiber, such that the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield, the upper reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar and the top cover structure 3 are all made of carbon fiber, which is beneficial to reducing the weight of the vehicle body, and the upper reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar and the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield form an annular force transmission structure. The annular force transmission structure has fewer parts and fewer connecting joints, which can improve the smoothness of force transmission and the torsional stiffness of the whole vehicle, thereby ensuring the safety performance of the whole vehicle.

[0050] Specifically, the vehicle body structure of this embodiment forms an annular force transmission structure by making the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 and the front windshield lower cross beam 1 surround each other. A part of the force transmitted from the front end of the vehicle body to the vehicle body longitudinal beam can be transmitted to the floor middle channel through the front panel, and then transmitted to the door sill beam through the floor cross beam, and then transmitted backward through the door sill beam. The other part can be transmitted to the front windshield lower cross beam 1 through the front panel, and then transmitted to the fixed roof structure 3 through the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2, and then transmitted backward through the roof structure 3, so as to optimize the force transmission path, improve the smoothness of force transmission, and improve the safety of the vehicle body structure.

[0051] Based on the above overall introduction, as a preferred implementation method, Figure 3 and Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in , in this embodiment, the roof structure 3 includes a roof outer panel 301 and a roof inner panel 302 that are connected by snapping, and the top portion 202 is arranged between the roof outer panel 301 and the roof inner panel 302. A cavity 4 is formed in the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2, and the cavity 4 extends along the length direction of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2. By making the roof structure 3 include the roof outer panel 301 and the roof inner panel 302, and making the top portion 202 be arranged between the roof outer panel 301 and the roof inner panel 302, it is beneficial to improve the structural strength of the vehicle body structure and facilitate the realization of a design with fewer parts. In addition, by forming the cavity 4 in the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2, it is beneficial to reduce the weight of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 and improve the structural strength of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2.

[0052] In specific implementation, the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 can be bonded to the top cover outer panel 301 and the top cover inner panel 302 by structural adhesive. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the top cover structure 3 includes the top cover outer panel 301 and the top cover inner panel 302, and the top part 202 is located between the top cover outer panel 301 and the top cover inner panel 302, which is only a preferred implementation. In addition, in other embodiments, the top cover structure 3 can also include only the top cover outer panel 301 or the top cover inner panel 302. In this case, the top part 202 only needs to be connected to the top cover outer panel 301 or the top cover inner panel 302.

[0053] It should also be noted that, in actual implementation, the wall thickness of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 can be designed to be unequal. Specifically, the thickness of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 close to the outside of the vehicle can be thicker, and the thickness of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 close to the inside of the vehicle can be thinner, and the wall thickness of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 can be between 3mm and 8mm. In this way, it is convenient to ensure the structural strength of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 while facilitating the lightweight design of the vehicle. In addition, in other embodiments, the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 can also be made into a solid structure, that is, no cavity 4 is formed therein.

[0054] As a preferred implementation, in this embodiment, the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 is made by using a carbon fiber autoclave process. The A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 is provided with a side reinforcement plate 5, and the rear end of the side reinforcement plate 5 is overlapped and connected with the top cover outer plate 301. By making the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 by using a carbon fiber autoclave process, the production efficiency is high, and it is easy to ensure the quality of the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2. In addition, by providing the side reinforcement plate 5 on the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2, and making the side reinforcement plate 5 overlapped and connected with the top cover outer plate 301, it is beneficial to further improve the structural strength of the vehicle body structure, and at the same time, it can also improve the smoothness of the transmission of external force to the top cover structure.

[0055] It is worth noting that the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 in this embodiment is made by using the carbon fiber autoclave process, which is only a preferred implementation method. In addition, in other embodiments, the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 can also be made by using other carbon fiber molding processes commonly used in the prior art. In addition, in other embodiments, the side reinforcement plate 5 may not be provided.

[0056] As a preferred example, Figure 7 As shown in , the side reinforcement plate 5 is bent and has a top plate 501 and a side plate 502. The top plate 501 is arranged on the top of the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2, and the side plate 502 is arranged on the side of the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 facing the outside of the vehicle. By making the side reinforcement plate 5 have a top plate 501 and a side plate 502, not only the structural strength of the side reinforcement plate 5 can be improved, but also the structural strength of the vehicle body structure can be improved. In specific implementation, the top plate 501 and the side plate 502 can be connected to the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 by structural adhesive to ensure the sealing effect, and can further improve the structural strength of the vehicle body structure.

[0057] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a flange 503 folded toward the outside of the vehicle is provided at the bottom of the side plate 502, and the flange 503 is used to install the door sealing strip. A downwardly concave platform 6 is provided at the front end of the top cover outer plate 301, and the platform 6, the top plate 501 and the top surface of the front windshield lower cross beam 1 form the installation surface of the front windshield.

[0058] By providing a flange 503 at the bottom of the side plate 502, the structural strength of the side reinforcement plate 5 can be improved while providing a mounting structure for the door sealing strip, which facilitates the installation of the door sealing strip on the vehicle body. And by providing a sink 6 at the front end of the top cover outer panel 301, a mounting surface can be provided for the front windshield. Moreover, in order to improve the installation efficiency of the front windshield, a positioning hole is also provided on the sink 6 to position the front windshield. Of course, in this embodiment, the flange 503 is provided on the side plate 502, and the sink 6 is provided on the top cover outer panel 301, which is only used as a preferred implementation. In other embodiments, it is also possible to choose not to provide the flange 503 or the sink 6.

[0059] As a preferred implementation, in this embodiment, the top cover outer panel 301 is made by a carbon fiber autoclave process, and the top cover inner panel 302 is made by a carbon fiber SMC process. The side reinforcement plate 5 is made by a carbon fiber prepreg process. With such a configuration, the production process is more flexible. Of course, in other embodiments, the top cover outer panel 301, the top cover inner panel 302, and the side reinforcement plate 5 can also be made by other carbon fiber molding processes.

[0060] As a further embodiment, Figure 1 As shown in , the edges of the left and right sides of the roof outer panel 301 are provided with step portions extending along the edges. And the step portion includes a plurality of gradually decreasing steps, wherein the steps in this embodiment are specifically two. In this embodiment, by providing the steps, not only the structural strength of the roof outer edge 301 can be improved, but also the external force of the side portion 201 of the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 can be transmitted along each step, which can further improve the smoothness of force transmission; at the same time, it is also convenient to realize the buckle connection between the roof outer panel 301 and the roof inner panel 302.

[0061] As a preferred example, Figure 6 As shown in , in this embodiment, the top cover inner plate 302 is provided with a first protruding portion 7 and a second protruding portion 8, and the first protruding portion 7 and the second protruding portion 8 both protrude toward the top cover outer plate 301. The first protruding portion 7 and the second protruding portion 8 are arranged at intervals along the front-to-back direction of the vehicle, and a mounting groove 9 extending along the left-to-right direction of the vehicle is formed, and the top portion 202 is arranged in the mounting groove 9. By providing the first protruding portion 7 and the second protruding portion 8, the structural strength of the top cover inner plate 302 is improved, and the mounting groove 9 formed between the first protruding portion 7 and the second protruding portion 8 can provide an installation space for the top portion 202.

[0062] In addition, in order to further improve the structural strength of the top cover inner plate 302, a plurality of cross-arranged reinforcing protrusions 12 are formed on the second raised portion 8. Moreover, in specific implementation, the thickness of each reinforcing protrusion 12 can be set to be different, so as to further facilitate lightweight design while improving the strength and safety of the entire vehicle.

[0063] As a preferred implementation method, Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown in , in this embodiment, the cross section of the front windshield lower crossbeam 1 is "V"-shaped, and a groove 10 extending along its length direction is formed. The front end of the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 is provided with a protruding portion 11, which protrudes toward the inner side of the vehicle, and the protruding portion 11 is inserted into the groove 10 and connected to the front windshield lower crossbeam 1. In specific implementation, the protruding portion 11 and the front windshield lower crossbeam 1 are bonded by structural adhesive. By providing the protruding portion 11 on the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2, and providing the groove 10 on the front windshield lower crossbeam 1, and inserting the protruding portion 11 into the groove 10, it is beneficial to increase the connection area between the A-pillar upper reinforcement beam 2 and the front windshield lower crossbeam 1, and ensure the connection strength.

[0064] The cross section of the front windshield lower beam 1 of this embodiment is in a "V" shape, which can make it lighter and facilitate the lightweight design of the entire vehicle. At this time, in order to ensure the structural strength of the front windshield lower beam 1, such as Figure 8 As shown in the figure, a reinforcing rib is provided in the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield, and the reinforcing rib is arranged in a plurality of intervals along the length direction of the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield. In addition, in order to further improve the use effect, the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield is in an arc shape that bends forward as a whole, thereby improving its structural strength and having a better aesthetic appearance.

[0065] As a preferred embodiment, the vehicle body structure of this embodiment also includes a front panel and lower sections of A-pillars connected to the left and right sides of the front panel. The upper section reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar is bonded to the lower section of the A-pillar by structural adhesive, and is screwed to the lower section of the A-pillar in the vertical direction of the vehicle by bolts. The front panel and the lower section of the A-pillar are integrally formed with carbon fiber. In addition, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown in , in order to facilitate the connection between the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 and the A-pillar lower section, a downwardly protruding convex portion is provided at one end of the side portion 201 close to the front of the vehicle. Moreover, the provision of the downwardly protruding portion is also conducive to improving the connection strength between the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 and the A-pillar lower section.

[0066] It is understandable that the front windshield lower cross beam 1 is connected to the lower section of the A-pillar by bonding and screwing, which is beneficial to improving the connection strength between the front windshield lower cross beam 1 and the lower section of the A-pillar. In addition, the front wall panel and the lower section of the A-pillar are integrally formed with carbon fiber, which is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the front wall panel and the lower section of the A-pillar, and is convenient to reduce the number of parts and facilitate assembly.

[0067] When implementing it, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in , a mounting hole 13 for bolt installation is provided on the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2, and the bolt is installed in the mounting hole 13, and the bolt passes through the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 and is connected to the A-pillar lower section. Of course, in other embodiments, the A-pillar upper section reinforcement beam 2 and the A-pillar lower section can also be connected only by bonding, or only by bolts. In addition, in other embodiments, the front panel and the A-pillar lower section can also be formed separately.

[0068] The vehicle body structure of this embodiment is made of carbon fiber, including the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield, the upper reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar and the top cover structure 3, and a cavity 4 is formed in the upper reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar, which is beneficial to reducing the weight of the vehicle body, and the upper reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar and the lower cross beam 1 of the front windshield form an annular force transmission structure, which is beneficial to optimizing the force transmission path, improving the force transmission smoothness and the torsional rigidity of the whole vehicle, and the top cover structure 3 includes a top cover outer panel 301 and a top cover inner panel 302 that are connected by snapping, so that the top part 202 is arranged between the top cover outer panel 301 and the top cover inner panel 302, and a side reinforcement panel 5 is arranged on the upper reinforcement beam 2 of the A-pillar, which is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the vehicle body structure and ensuring the safety performance of the whole vehicle.
