The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present application, and are therefore only used as examples, and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present application.

[0048] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by technicians in the technical field to which this application belongs; the terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application; the terms "including" and "having" in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned figure descriptions and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.

[0049] Reference to "embodiments" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0050] It should be noted that the front (or forward) and rear (or rearward) mentioned in this article are with reference to the vehicle, that is, the direction pointed by the front of the vehicle is the front, and the direction pointed by the rear of the vehicle is the rear.

[0051] The back door is also called the tailgate, and is widely used in vehicles such as hatchback sedans and SUVs (Sport Utility Vehicles). By opening the back door, luggage and other items in the trunk can be easily taken out.

[0052] In the related art, the back door is movably connected to the body of the vehicle through a hinge. In order to prevent the back door from interfering with the structure on the body when in motion, a certain gap is usually left between the back door and the roof of the vehicle. A seal is provided in the gap. The seal is used to seal the gap when the back door is closed to achieve waterproof and dustproof effects. However, when looking up from the inside of the vehicle, part of the seal structure is easily visible, which affects the interior aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0053] In order to solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, which includes a vehicle body and a rear door. Figures 1 to 3 A vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application is introduced in detail.

[0054] Figure 1 A partial cross-sectional structural schematic diagram of a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, in which the right side of the figure is a partial body of the vehicle, and the left side is a partial structure of a rear door 20 . Figure 1 The back door 20 at the rear of the vehicle is in a closed state. In the closed state, the vehicle body and the back door 20 are sealed by a seal 13 .

[0055] A vehicle compartment is formed inside the vehicle body, the vehicle body includes a roof 10, a tailgate 20 is movably connected to the vehicle body, and a seal 13 is arranged between the rear portion of the roof 10 and the front portion of the tailgate 20. The rear portion of the roof 10 is formed with an extension portion 120 protruding toward the rear of the vehicle, the extension portion 120 has a bottom surface 1201 and an inclined surface 1202, the bottom surface 1201 is exposed in the vehicle compartment, the inclined surface 1202 is inclined relative to the bottom surface 1201, one end of the inclined surface 1202 is connected to the rear edge of the bottom surface 1201, the other end of the inclined surface 1202 extends toward the front and upper direction of the vehicle, and the connection position between the inclined surface 1202 and the bottom surface 1201 is located at the rear and lower part of the seal 13.

[0056] The solution provided by the embodiment of the present application is to form an extension 120 protruding toward the rear of the vehicle at the rear of the roof 10 of the vehicle body, and the extension 120 has a bottom surface 1201 and an inclined surface 1202, wherein the bottom surface 1201 is exposed in the vehicle compartment and constitutes a part of the vehicle interior surface. On this basis, one end of the inclined surface 1202 is connected to the rear edge of the bottom surface 1201, and the other end extends toward the front and upper direction of the vehicle, and the connection position between the inclined surface 1202 and the bottom surface 1201 is located at the rear and lower part of the seal 13. This makes the inclined surface 1202 and the bottom surface 1201 have a shielding effect on the seal 13. When looking up from the inside of the vehicle, the seal 13 is blocked by the inclined surface 1202 and the bottom surface 1201 and is not easily seen, thereby improving the interior aesthetics of the vehicle.

[0057] The following is in conjunction with the instruction manual Figures 1 to 3 The specific structure of the vehicle of the present application is introduced in detail.

[0058] The roof 10 is located on the top of the vehicle and is used to isolate the interior space of the vehicle from the outside world. It can not only provide shelter from wind and rain, but also provide heat insulation and sound insulation. The roof 10 includes a roof outer panel 11 and a roof inner panel 12, wherein the roof inner panel 12 is connected to the roof outer panel 11, and the roof inner panel 12 is formed with an extension 120. The roof outer panel 11 may include a roof outer panel body 111 disposed on the outermost side of the vehicle body, and the roof outer panel body 111 is generally made of sheet metal, which has the advantages of high strength, light weight, easy processing, corrosion resistance, and beautiful appearance. In addition, the ceiling outer panel 11 can also include a ceiling reinforcement plate 112. The edge of the ceiling reinforcement plate 112 is fixedly connected to the ceiling outer panel body 111 by welding, riveting, etc., and the middle part of the ceiling reinforcement plate 112 is separated from the ceiling outer panel body 111, so that the cross-section of the ceiling outer panel 11 forms a U-shape, that is, a space with a U-shape cross-section is reserved between the ceiling reinforcement plate 112 and the ceiling outer panel body 111. This space causes the ceiling reinforcement plate 112 and the ceiling outer panel body 111 to bend, thereby improving the overall structural strength of the ceiling outer panel 11.

[0059] The back door 20 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body, and the specific connection position can be the roof 10 or the side of the vehicle body. Undoubtedly, the back door 20 and the vehicle body can be rotated and supported by the hinge and the support rod in the prior art, or by the four-link hinge and the support rod in the prior art. The support rod in the prior art is a rod-shaped driving device that can be extended and shortened. Specifically, one end of the support rod is rotatably connected to the vehicle body, and the other end is rotatably connected to the back door 20. When the length of the support rod changes, it can drive the back door 20 to move.

[0060] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, technical terms such as "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral one; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0061] In order to more clearly show the roof outer plate 11 and the roof inner plate 12 of the roof 10, Figure 2 Omitted Figure 1 The back door 20 includes a back door inner panel 22 . Figure 2 The ceiling inner plate 12 includes a ceiling substrate layer 121, a forming member 122 and a ceiling covering layer 123. The ceiling substrate layer 121 can be made of PU foam sheet, PP foam sheet, corrugated paper, resin-impregnated recycled cotton or glass fiber, etc.

[0062] The forming member 122 includes an inclined plate 1221 flush with the edge of the ceiling substrate layer 121. The inclined plate 1221 is connected to the ceiling substrate layer 121 and an acute angle is formed therebetween, so that the extension portion 120 of the ceiling 10 can be constructed. In order to facilitate the connection and fixation between the forming member 122 and the ceiling substrate layer 121, the forming member 122 may also include a connecting plate 1222. The connecting plate 1222 is fixed to the inner surface of the ceiling substrate layer 121 and one end of the connecting plate 1221 is connected to one end of the inclined plate 1221. At this time, the forming member 122 is formed Figure 1 A structure similar to “√” in .

[0063] There are many ways to fix the connecting plate 1222 and the ceiling substrate layer 121. In one possible implementation, when assembling the formed part 122, an adhesive can be applied to the inner side of the ceiling substrate layer 121, and the connecting plate 1222 and the ceiling substrate layer 121 can be fixedly connected by gluing, thereby achieving the fixation of the formed part 122 and the ceiling substrate layer 121. There are many types of adhesives, and designers in this field can flexibly select suitable adhesives based on factors such as cost and connection strength, which will not be described in detail in this application. In addition, the fixed connection between the connecting plate 1222 and the ceiling substrate layer 121 can also be achieved by melting, riveting, etc.

[0064] Figure 3 1 is a partial cross-sectional structural diagram of another vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present application, in which the rear door 20 located at the rear is in a closed state. In order to further increase the structural strength of the formed part 122, the formed part 122 may also include a support plate 1223, and the two ends of the support plate 1223 are respectively connected to the other end of the connecting plate 1222 and the other end of the inclined plate 1221. In this way, the formed part 122 is formed Figure 3 It is understood that the formed part 122 formed by the inclined plate 1221, the connecting plate 1222 and the supporting plate 1223 is a hollow structure, which can reduce the weight of the formed part 122 and is conducive to the lightweight of the vehicle. The formed part 122 can be a plastic part, which has the advantages of easy molding, low manufacturing cost and light weight.

[0065] The ceiling covering layer 123 covers the outer surface of the ceiling substrate layer 121 and the inclined plate 1221 to form the bottom surface 1201 and the inclined surface 1202. The ceiling covering layer 123 can be made of fabric materials, leather materials, artificial leather materials, etc. Fabric materials have good durability, strong air permeability, and good surface anti-slip effect; leather materials have high-end appearance and texture, high comfort, and the surface leather is not easy to penetrate water and is easy to clean and maintain. Artificial leather materials are generally made of woven fabrics bonded to polyvinyl chloride or polyurethane. The surface is similar to leather and has a variety of colors. It is easy to clean and maintain and affordable. The use of ceiling covering layers 123 of different materials can achieve corresponding effects. Those skilled in the art can flexibly select suitable materials as the ceiling covering layer 123 according to actual needs.

[0066] Since the formed part 122 protrudes toward the rear of the vehicle body, the roof covering layer 123 can form an extension portion 120 when covering the outer surface of the roof base material layer 121 and the inclined plate 1221; the extension portion 120 includes a bottom surface 1201 and an inclined surface 1202; the bottom surface 1201 is exposed on the inner side of the vehicle body; the inclined surface 1202 is located at the edge of the bottom surface 1201 and is inclined relative to the bottom surface 1201. Considering the balance between improving the aesthetics of the interior and reducing the difficulty of processing the ceiling inner plate 12, the angle between the inclined surface 1202 and the bottom surface 1201 can be set to be greater than or equal to 15° and less than or equal to 65°, for example, it can be 15°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 55°, 65°, etc.

[0067] The back door 20 is movably connected to the vehicle body through a movable hinge, and can move relative to the ceiling 10 between an open position and a closed position under the action of a driving member (not shown). The movable hinge can at least realize the movement of the back door 20 between the open position and the closed position relative to the ceiling 10. Although not shown, it is easy to think that in one possible implementation, the movable hinge can adopt a pivot, and the back door 20 can be rotated from the closed position to the open position. In addition, in another possible implementation, the movable hinge can also adopt a multi-link mechanism, such as a four-link mechanism, and the movement trajectory of the back door 20 is not an arc in the process of opening the back door 20, thereby realizing a variety of movement trajectory designs. The driving member is installed on the vehicle body and connected to the back door 20, and can drive the back door 20 to move relative to the ceiling 10 between the open position and the closed position. The driving member is a telescopic member, one end of which is rotatably connected to the vehicle body, and the other end is rotatably connected to the back door 20. For example, the driving member can be a telescopic cylinder, a telescopic hydraulic cylinder or an electric cylinder (also called a strut). For the specific driving components used, technicians in this field can adapt the corresponding air source, hydraulic station, distribution lines, etc. The details of setting the driving components are relatively simple for technicians in this field, so for the sake of brevity, they will not be repeated here.

[0068] The back door 20 includes a back door outer panel 21 and a back door inner panel 22 connected to the back door outer panel 21, and a gap 2222 is formed between the lower surface 2211 of the back door inner panel 22 and the bottom surface 1201. In this way, a gap is left between the back door 20 and the ceiling 10, which helps to prevent the back door 20 from interfering with the structure on the vehicle body when moving.

[0069] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, a groove portion 115 is formed at the rear end of the roof outer panel 11, the seal 13 is fixed to the rear end of the groove portion 115, and the extension portion 120 is located at the rear and lower part of the groove portion 115. The groove portion 115 can be used as a water flow channel structure at the rear end of the roof 10. Through the cooperation of the water flow channel structure and the seal 13, it is possible to better prevent external water from entering the vehicle compartment. In addition, the extension portion 120 is located at the rear and lower part of the groove portion 115, which is conducive to using the extension portion 120 to shield the seal 13, so that the seal 13 is not easily exposed to the sight of people in the vehicle.

[0070] In addition, when the tailgate 20 is connected to the vehicle body via a single-axis hinge structure, the groove portion 115 also has the function of avoiding the front end of the tailgate 20. That is, when the tailgate 20 is opened in a rotating manner, the front end of the tailgate 20 can enter the avoidance space defined by the groove portion 115 to ensure that the tailgate 20 can be opened smoothly.

[0071] Further, the seal 13 may include a mounting base 131 and a lip 132, wherein the mounting base 131 is fixed to the rear end of the groove portion 115, and the lip 132 is connected to the mounting base 131, wherein the lip 132 may be integrally injection molded with the mounting base 131; and the lip 132 abuts against the inclined surface 1202. In this way, when the back door 20 is in the closed position, the seal 13 may be crimped, thereby effectively sealing the roof 10 and the back door 20 to prevent external dust and moisture from entering the interior of the vehicle body. Among them, the seal 13 may be a sealing strip. The sealing strip is an elastic band-shaped or rod-shaped structure, and may be made of EPDM, polyvinyl chloride, plasticized polyvinyl chloride, chloroprene rubber, etc. Among them, EPDM has outstanding ozone resistance, excellent weather resistance, good high and low temperature resistance, and outstanding chemical resistance, and therefore has been widely used as a material for sealing strips.

[0072] Although not shown in the figure, it is understood that many variations are possible without departing from the technical concept of the present application. For example, the tailgate 20 can be an integral fastback tailgate or an integral hatchback tailgate. In addition, the tailgate 20 in the embodiment of the present application can also be an upper tailgate in a split tailgate. The split tailgate includes an upper rear back and a lower rear back, and the upper rear back and the lower rear back can be opened and closed independently. The split tailgate can refine the use space of the trunk and can place items more conveniently.
