[0014] A car comprises the above-mentioned A-pillar trim panel and glove box lower trim panel combined structure.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0016] The present application first connects the A-pillar trim and the glove box lower trim to the dashboard frame so that the positioning references of the A-pillar trim and the glove box lower trim are consistent, both being the dashboard frame, so that it is easier to control the Y-direction gap and X-direction surface difference between the second panel of the A-pillar trim and the first panel of the glove box lower trim in the subsequent process.

At this position, the sizes of the partition seam between the first panel and the second panel at different positions are uniform. In this way, the present application improves the problem of uneven Y-direction gap between the A-pillar trim and the lower trim of the glove box. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.
[0028] In the description of the present application, “plurality” means two or more than two, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0029] It should also be noted that the directional terms such as left, right, up and down in the embodiments of the present application are merely relative concepts or are based on the normal use status of the product, and should not be considered as restrictive.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 The utility model provides an A-pillar trim and a glove box lower trim combined structure, including an A-pillar trim 20, a glove box lower trim 10 and an instrument panel frame 30, wherein the glove box lower trim 10 is fixed to the instrument panel frame 30. The glove box lower trim 10 includes a first panel 11 extending along the Y-axis direction, and the A-pillar trim 20 includes a second panel 21 extending along the Y-axis direction. The first panel 11 and the second panel 21 are spaced apart, and a separation seam 50 is defined by the first panel 11 and the second panel 21. The gap size of the separation seam 50 is also the Y-direction gap size between the glove box lower trim and the A-pillar trim 20.
[0031] The instrument panel frame 30 includes a plurality of fastener assembly holes 32 opened along the Y-axis direction and a plurality of limiting holes 33 opened along the Y-axis direction; the separation seam 50 forms a first orthographic projection 51 on the YOZ plane. The orthographic projections formed by each fastener assembly hole 32 on the XOZ plane are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the first orthographic projection 51. The orthographic projections formed by each limiting hole 33 on the XOZ plane are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the first orthographic projection 51; the A-pillar trim 20 is connected to each fastener assembly hole 32 through a fastener; the A-pillar trim 20 also includes a plurality of latches 221, and each latch 221 is respectively plugged into each limiting hole 33.
[0032] In the present application, the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10 are first connected to the instrument panel frame 30, so that the positioning references of the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10 are consistent, that is, the instrument panel frame 30, so that it is easier to control the Y-direction gap and X-direction surface difference between the second panel 21 of the A-pillar trim 20 and the first panel 11 of the glove box lower trim 10. Among them, the Y-direction gap between the first panel 11 and the second panel 21 is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in A in FIG. 1 , the X-direction surface difference between the first panel 11 and the second panel 21 is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in B.
[0033] The present application sets a plurality of latches 221 at preset positions of the A-pillar trim 20, and sets a plurality of limit holes 33 extending along the Y-axis direction at preset positions on the instrument panel frame 30. The preset positions of the latches 221 and the limit holes 33 have been determined in the design stage. As long as the A-pillar trim 20 and the instrument panel frame 30 match at these preset positions, the relative positions of the A-pillar trim 20 and the instrument panel frame 30 will be limited to the corresponding positions. At this position, the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10 are in an ideal state of matching. In an ideal state, the surface difference between the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10 is small.
[0034] The orthographic projections formed by each limiting hole 33 on the XOZ plane are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the first orthographic projection 51 formed by the dividing seam 50 on the YOZ plane, so that the limiting holes 33 can be arranged at intervals roughly along the direction in which the dividing seam 50 extends. When multiple pins 221 are matched one by one with multiple limiting holes 33 extending in the Y-axis direction, the A-pillar trim 20 can be positioned at multiple points in the direction in which the dividing seam 50 extends, so that the relative positions of various parts of the A-pillar trim 20 and various parts of the instrument panel skeleton 30 in the X-axis direction are limited, and then the relative positions of the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10 are also limited, and finally the face difference of the first panel 11 and the second panel 21 is controlled within a preset range. In this way, the present embodiment improves the problem of large face difference between the first panel 11 and the second panel 21, thereby improving the problem of uneven Y-direction gap and poor X-direction face difference between the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10.
[0035] Reference Figure 3 In a feasible embodiment, a plurality of fastener assembly holes 32 are provided at preset positions of the instrument panel frame 30. The preset positions of the fastener assembly holes 32 have been determined in the design stage. As long as the A-pillar trim 20 and the instrument panel frame 30 are matched at these preset positions, the relative positions of the A-pillar trim 20 and the instrument panel frame 30 will be limited to corresponding positions, at which the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10 are matched in an ideal state.
[0036] The orthographic projections formed by the fastener assembly holes 32 on the XOZ plane are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the first orthographic projection 51, so that the fastener assembly holes 32 can be arranged approximately along the direction in which the partition 50 extends. When the A-pillar trim 20 is connected to the fastener assembly holes 32 by fasteners, the A-pillar trim 20 and the instrument panel frame 30 form a multi-point connection in the direction in which the partition 50 extends. As long as the fasteners are connected in place, the relative positions of the A-pillar trim 20 and the instrument panel frame 30 in the direction in which the partition 50 extends can be limited. At this position, the sizes of the different positions of the partition 50 between the first panel 11 and the second panel 21 are uniform. In this way, the present application improves the problem of uneven Y-direction gap between the A-pillar trim 20 and the glove box lower trim 10.
[0037] Reference Figure 4 In a feasible embodiment, the instrument panel frame 30 includes a first connection panel 31 extending along the X-axis direction. The limiting hole 33 and the fastener assembly hole 32 are both provided on the first connection panel 31. The A-pillar trim 20 includes a second connection panel 22 extending along the X-axis direction. The second connection panel 22 is connected to the fastener assembly hole 32 through a fastener. The latch 221 is provided on the second connection panel 22.
[0038] Reference Figure 5 In a feasible embodiment, the second connection panel 22 is provided with a plurality of connection seats 222, and each connection seat 222 is connected to a fastener assembly hole 32 through a fastener. In this way, the contact area between the first connection panel 31 and the second connection panel 22 can be reduced, and an escape space is formed between the first connection panel 31 and the second connection panel 22 to escape other protruding structures on the first connection panel 31 and the second connection panel 22, so as to prevent these protruding structures from interfering with the connection process of the first connection panel 31 and the second connection panel 22 and causing the first connection panel 31 and the second connection panel 22 to deform.
[0039] Furthermore, the fastener includes a screw 41 and a nut 42, the nut 42 is clamped at one end of the fastener assembly hole 32, and the screw 41 passes through the fastener assembly hole 32 from the other end and is threadedly connected with the nut 42. In this way, the position of the fastener and the fastener assembly hole 32 can be finely adjusted, so that an adjustment range can be reserved for the process of connecting the glove box lower trim 10 with other components.
[0040] Furthermore, the nut 42 includes a main body 421 and two elastic arms, wherein the main body 421 is provided with a threaded hole for threaded connection with the screw 41, and the two elastic arms are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the main body 421; the ends of the elastic arms are clamped on the edge of the end of the fastener assembly hole 32. The elastic arms can provide a pre-tightening force, increase the difficulty of the main body 421 and the screw 41 to loosen by themselves, and reduce the probability of the two loosening by themselves.
[0041] Furthermore, the elastic arm includes an extension portion 423 extending obliquely inward from the side of the main body portion 421 and a clamping portion 422 turned outward from the end of the extension portion 423; the clamping portion 422 is clamped to the edge of the end of the fastener assembly hole 32. When the clamping portion 422 is over-extruded by the fastener assembly hole 32, one end of the clamping portion 422 close to the extension portion 423 can be pressed inward against the screw 41, and the screw 41 can prevent the clamping portion 422 from further deforming inward, so as to prevent the clamping portion 422 from passing through the fastener assembly hole 32 and becoming ineffective after excessive deformation.
[0042] Reference Figure 6 In a feasible embodiment, the size of the latch 221 gradually decreases in the direction away from the second connection panel 22. When the latch 221 is inserted into the limiting hole 33, as the insertion depth of the latch 221 increases, the squeezing force between the limiting hole 33 and the latch 221 increases, thereby increasing the friction between the hole wall of the limiting hole 33 and the latch 221. The latch 221 is pre-positioned on the limiting hole 33 by means of the friction, thereby pre-positioning the A-pillar trim 20 on the instrument panel frame 30, so that the A-pillar panel and the instrument panel frame 30 can be connected later using fasteners.
[0043] Furthermore, the fastener assembly holes 32 and the limiting holes 33 are arranged at the edge of the first connection panel 31 facing the second panel 21. The orthographic projections of the fastener assembly holes 32 and the orthographic projections of the limiting holes 33 on the XOZ plane are staggered along the length direction of the first orthographic projection 51.
[0044] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may be subject to various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
