[0025] 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.

[0026] Reference below Figure 1 and Figure 2 A vehicle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described. The vehicle 100 includes but is not limited to a pickup truck.

[0027] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle 100 according to the utility model may mainly include: a body 10 and a compartment 20, wherein the body 10 is spaced in front of the compartment 20, a seal 30 extending in the left-right direction is provided on the side of the compartment 20 facing the body 10, and an outer protrusion 121 is provided on the side of the body 10 facing the front plate of the compartment 20, the outer protrusion 121 is located above the seal 30, and the outer protrusion 121 extends in the left-right direction and corresponds to the seal 30 up and down.

[0028] Specifically, the vehicle body 10 is spaced in front of the compartment 20, the compartment 20 is connected to the vehicle body 10, the driver and passengers can sit in the cab of the vehicle body 10, and the compartment 20 can be used to carry passengers and cargo, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle 100. In the front-to-back direction, there is a gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20, and the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20 extends in the left-right direction, and the exhaust duct of the vehicle 100 can be set in the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20.

[0029] Considering that flammable materials are easy to fall into the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20, and finally fall on the exhaust pipe, which is easy to be ignited and cause a fire, a seal 30 extending in the left and right directions is provided on the side of the compartment 20 facing the vehicle body 10, so that the seal 30 can extend in the left and right directions and at least partially cover the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20. In addition, in order to avoid interference fit between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10, which causes friction and abnormal noise between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10 during driving, there will also be a certain gap between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10. At this time, flammable materials may still fall onto the exhaust pipe through the gap between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10. Optionally, the size of the gap between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10 in the front-to-back direction is 10 mm.

[0030] Furthermore, by providing an outer protrusion 121 on the side of the body 10 facing the front plate of the vehicle compartment 20, the outer protrusion 121 is located above the seal 30, and the outer protrusion 121 extends in the left-right direction and corresponds to the seal 30 up and down. In this way, under the premise that the seal 30 blocks the gap between the body 10 and the vehicle compartment 20 from the vehicle compartment 20 toward the side of the body 10, the outer protrusion 121 can block the gap between the body 10 and the vehicle compartment 20 from the direction of the body 10 toward the side of the vehicle compartment 20, that is, the outer protrusion 121 can at least partially block the gap between the seal 30 and the body 10, thereby reducing the risk of flammable materials falling onto the exhaust pipe through the gap between the seal 30 and the body 10.

[0031] In this way, the protrusion 121 and the seal 30 can work together to mostly or even completely cover the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20, thereby more reliably reducing the risk of flammable materials falling into the exhaust pipe and improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0032] Therefore, by providing a seal 30 extending in the left-right direction on the side of the compartment 20 facing the vehicle body 10, and providing an outer protrusion 121 on the side of the vehicle body 10 facing the compartment 20, and making the outer protrusion 121 above the seal 30, the outer protrusion 121 extends in the left-right direction and corresponds to the seal 30 up and down, so that the outer protrusion 121 and the seal 30 can work together, and the outer protrusion 121 and the seal 30 can mostly or even completely block the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the compartment 20, so as to more reliably reduce the risk of flammable materials falling into the exhaust pipe, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0033] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the projection of the outer protrusion 121 in the vertical direction and the projection of the seal 30 in the vertical direction at least partially overlap, and the overlap amount between the projection of the seal 30 in the vertical direction and the projection of the outer protrusion 121 in the vertical direction is L, and L satisfies the relationship: L≥5mm.

[0034] Specifically, considering that the assembly tolerance of the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the vehicle compartment 20 is ±5mm, by making the projection of the outer protrusion 121 in the up and down directions and the projection of the seal 30 in the up and down directions at least partially overlap, and the overlap amount between the projection of the seal 30 in the up and down directions and the projection of the outer protrusion 121 in the up and down directions is set to be not less than 5mm, even under the extreme positive assembly deviation, the outer protrusion 121 and the seal 30 can work together to completely block the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the vehicle compartment 20, thereby reducing the risk of flammable materials falling into the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the vehicle compartment 20 for any vehicle 100 on the production line, and improving the safety and reliability of each vehicle 100 on the production line.

[0035] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper surface of the seal 30 is flush with the upper surface of the compartment 20, and the distance between the upper edge of the projection of the outer protrusion 121 in the front-to-back direction and the upper edge of the projection of the compartment 20 in the front-to-back direction is D, and D satisfies the relationship: D≤60mm.

[0036] Specifically, by setting the upper surface of the seal 30 flush with the upper surface of the car body 20, it is possible to avoid a height difference between the upper surface of the seal 30 and the upper surface of the car body 20, which would cause flammable materials to fall into the angle formed between the seal 30 and the car body 20 and further fall onto the exhaust pipe. Even if flammable materials fall onto the seal 30, they can be easily cleaned into the car body 20. The setting position of the seal 30 can be optimized, and flammable materials can be more reliably prevented from falling onto the exhaust pipe in the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the car body 20, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0037] Furthermore, the distance between the upper edge of the projection of the outer protrusion 121 in the front-to-back direction and the upper edge of the projection of the car body 20 in the front-to-back direction is set to be less than or equal to 60 mm. This can prevent the outer protrusion 121 and the seal 30 from being too far apart in the up-down direction, which would cause the flammable materials falling from top to bottom to deviate under the influence of wind force, etc., and first enter the space between the outer protrusion 121 and the seal 30 in the up-down direction, and then enter the gap between the seal 30 and the car body 10. This can further optimize the structural design of the outer protrusion 121, make the distance between the outer protrusion 121 and the seal 30 in the up-down direction more reasonable, and prevent flammable materials from entering the space from the outer protrusion 121 to the seal 30 in the up-down direction. This can more effectively and reliably prevent flammable materials from falling into the exhaust pipe, and can further improve the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0038] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the seal 30 is a sealing strip, which is bonded to the car body 20. With such an arrangement, on the one hand, the sealing strip can be extended in the left and right directions, so that the volume of the seal 30 can be reduced and the cost can be reduced while ensuring that the seal 30 has a shielding effect on the gap between the car body 10 and the car body 20. On the other hand, by bonding the sealing strip to the car body 20, not only can the connection between the sealing strip and the car body 20 be facilitated, but also the replacement of the sealing strip can be facilitated without damaging the surface of the car body 20, thereby reducing the replacement cost.

[0039] Furthermore, the sealing strip is at least one of a rubber sealing strip, a silicone sealing strip and a plastic sealing strip. Specifically, rubber, silicone and plastic are all heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant, easy to obtain and easy to form. By setting the sealing strip to at least one of a rubber sealing strip, a silicone sealing strip and a plastic sealing strip, not only can the heat resistance and corrosion resistance of the sealing strip be ensured, and the service life of the sealing strip be extended, but also the production cost of the sealing strip can be reduced, and the production of the sealing strip can be facilitated.

[0040] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle body 10 may include: a rear enclosure outer panel 12 and a rear enclosure inner panel 11, the rear enclosure outer panel 12 is located at the rear side of the rear enclosure inner panel 11 and is connected to the rear enclosure inner panel 11, the outer protrusion 121 is located on the rear enclosure outer panel 12, the rear enclosure outer panel 12 and the rear enclosure inner panel 11 jointly define a first cavity 101 and a second cavity 102, and the first cavity 101 and the second cavity 102 are spaced apart in the up and down directions.

[0041] Specifically, the rear enclosure outer panel 12 is located at the rear side of the rear enclosure inner panel 11 and is connected to the rear enclosure inner panel 11. Compared with the rear enclosure inner panel 11, the rear enclosure outer panel 12 is closer to the vehicle compartment 20. By arranging the protrusion 121 on the rear enclosure outer panel 12, it can be ensured that the protrusion 121 can play a role in covering the gap between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10.

[0042] Furthermore, by defining the first cavity 101 and the second cavity 102 between the rear enclosure outer panel 12 and the rear enclosure inner panel 11, the first cavity 101 and the second cavity 102 are spaced apart in the up and down directions. This can enhance the structural strength of the vehicle body 10 and prevent the vehicle body 10 from being deformed, thereby ensuring the position of the protrusion 121 relative to the seal 30, ensuring the position of the protrusion 121 relative to the seal 30, and making the protrusion 121 and the seal 30 work together to further improve the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0043] Furthermore, combined with Figure 1 As shown, the rear enclosure inner panel 11 may include a first plate portion 111, which at least partially protrudes forward, and both ends of the first plate portion 111 are connected to the rear enclosure outer panel 12, so that the first plate portion 111 and the rear enclosure outer panel 12 can naturally define a first cavity 101, which can make the structure of the vehicle body 10 simpler and more reliable.

[0044] Among them, the protrusion 121 can constitute a part of the first cavity 101, which can further increase the volume of the first cavity 101, further improve the structural strength of the vehicle body 10, avoid deformation of the protrusion 121, ensure that the protrusion 121 covers the gap between the seal 30 and the vehicle body 10, and further improve the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0045] Furthermore, combined with Figure 1 As shown, the rear enclosure inner panel 11 may further include a second plate portion 112, the second plate portion 112 is disposed below the first plate portion 111, the second plate portion 112 protrudes forward, and both ends of the second plate portion 112 are connected to the rear enclosure outer panel 12, so that the second plate portion 112 and the rear enclosure outer panel 12 can naturally define a second cavity 102, which can make the structure of the vehicle body 10 simpler and more reliable.

[0046] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the car body 20 may mainly include: a front panel body 21 and a front panel upper side beam 22, the front panel upper side beam 22 is connected to the front panel body 21 and is at least partially located above the front panel body 21, the seal 30 is arranged on the front panel upper side beam 22, and the front panel body 21 and the front panel upper side beam 22 jointly define a third cavity 201.

[0047] Specifically, the front panel upper side beam 22 is connected to the front panel body 21 and is at least partially located above the front panel body 21. The upper surface of the front panel upper side beam 22 is the upper surface of the vehicle body 20. By setting the seal 30 on the front panel upper side beam 22, the setting position of the seal 30 can be optimized to ensure that the seal 30 has a shielding effect on the gap between the vehicle body 10 and the vehicle body 20.

[0048] Furthermore, by making the front panel body 21 and the front panel upper beam 22 jointly define the third cavity 201, the structural strength of the vehicle compartment 20 can be improved, and the structural deformation of the vehicle compartment 20 can be prevented, thereby ensuring the position of the seal 30 relative to the outer protrusion 121, ensuring that the seal 30 can work together with the outer protrusion 121, and improving the reliability and stability of the vehicle 100.

[0049] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the front panel body 21 may include a third plate portion 211, which at least partially protrudes rearward, and the front panel upper side beam 22 may include a fourth plate portion 221, which protrudes forward. By arranging the third plate portion 211 and the fourth plate portion 221 relative to each other in the front-to-back direction and connecting the third plate portion 211 and the fourth plate portion 221, a third cavity 201 can be jointly defined between the third plate portion 211 and the fourth plate portion 221, which can make the structure of the car 20 simpler and more reliable.
