[0030] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0031] First, refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 A vehicle according to an embodiment of the third aspect of the utility model is briefly described. The vehicle includes an adjustment assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model.

[0032] Specifically, the vehicle according to the embodiment of the utility model comprises: a vehicle door and an adjustment assembly 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model, the vehicle door having an inner panel 200 and an outer panel 300, the adjustment assembly 100 being arranged on the vehicle door, one end of the compensation bushing 1 of the adjustment assembly 100 abutting against the inner panel 200 and the other end abutting against the outer panel 300, and the compensation bushing 1 deforms when being squeezed by the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300. Therefore, the structural design of the adjustment assembly 100 is ingenious, which ensures the connection stability between the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door.

[0033] According to the vehicle of the embodiment of the utility model, by setting the adjustment component 100 according to the first aspect of the utility model, the connection stability between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the detachable door is ensured, the problem of compensating and maintaining the gap between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the door is solved, and the gap value between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 is ensured to be filled and maintained, thereby reducing the door assembly error and improving the production quality of the vehicle.

[0034] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 5 An adjustment assembly 100 for gap compensation according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model is described.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model, the adjustment component 100 for gap compensation is specifically provided on the vehicle door, and the adjustment component 100 includes a compensation bushing 1, which is provided between the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door, and the two ends of the compensation bushing 1 are respectively in contact with the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door, and the compensation bushing 1 is formed with an adjustment part 11, and the adjustment part 11 is used to produce deformation when the adjustment component 100 is squeezed by the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door. Therefore, the adjustment component 100 for gap compensation has a simple structure and a clever design, which reduces the assembly error between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door.

[0036] According to the embodiment of the utility model, the adjustment component 100 for gap compensation solves the problem of compensating and maintaining the gap between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door by providing a compensation bushing 1 that is deformed when the adjustment component 100 is squeezed by the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door, thereby ensuring that the gap value between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 is filled and maintained, reducing the assembly error of the vehicle door, reducing the assembly difficulty between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door, and improving the production efficiency and production quality of the vehicle door.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present invention, the wall thickness of the adjusting portion 11 is less than the wall thickness of the compensating end portion. It is understandable that the thinner peripheral wall of the adjusting portion 11 weakens the structural strength of the compensating bushing 1 at the adjusting portion 11, making it easier to deform and reducing the difficulty of assembly.

[0038] Furthermore, the adjusting portion 11 is formed with an adjusting hole 111, which penetrates the peripheral wall of the compensating bushing 1 in the thickness direction of the peripheral wall of the compensating bushing 1. Thus, the adjusting hole 111 further weakens the structural strength of the compensating bushing 1 at the adjusting portion 11, so that the supporting strength is reduced, and the connection strength requirements between different workpieces can be met.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment holes 111 include a plurality of adjustment holes 111, and the plurality of adjustment holes 111 are evenly spaced and arranged in the circumferential direction of the compensation bushing 1. Thus, the balance of the structural strength of the compensation bushing 1 is ensured, and the structural stability of the vehicle door is ensured.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present invention, the compensating bushing 1 is formed with abutment portions 12, which are formed at both ends of the compensating bushing 1 in the axial direction, and the abutment portions 12 abut against the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door respectively. Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the lower end of the compensation bushing 1 is formed with an abutment portion 12 and the upper end of the compensation bushing 1 is also formed with an abutment portion 12. Thus, the abutment stability between the compensation bushing 1 and the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door is ensured, and the service life of the compensation bushing 1 is extended.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present invention, the adjustment assembly 100 further includes: a fastener 2 and a nut 3, wherein the fastener 2 is threadedly connected to the compensation bushing 1, and the nut 3 is sleeved on the fastener 2. Specifically, an outer peripheral wall of the fastener 2 is formed with an external thread, and an inner peripheral wall of the compensation bushing 1 is formed with an internal thread, and the fastener 2 and the compensation bushing 1 are connected via the external thread and the internal thread.

[0042] Furthermore, the fastener 2 may be a flat bolt with a nut or flange structure, specifically a hexagonal head bolt, a hexagonal flange bolt, a hexagon socket bolt, etc. The fastener 2 may also be a shaft or a pin with a flat pressure-bearing surface.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, the compensating bushing 1 is formed of metal material, rubber material or TPO composite material, thereby meeting the use requirements of different positions and different working conditions. In addition, the diameter and length of the compensating bushing 1 can be changed according to actual needs.

[0044] It should be noted here that TPO material is a composite material composed of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), polypropylene (PP) and modified polyester (PET). The proportion and formula of these materials can be adjusted according to specific application requirements.

[0045] In some embodiments, the compensating bushing 1 may be spherical, olive, teardrop, pear-shaped, or the like.

[0046] In other embodiments, the adjustment assembly 100 may also be applied to other workpieces that require clearance compensation.

[0047] The following will refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 The assembly process of the adjustment assembly 100 according to a specific embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0048] During installation, the compensating bushing 1 is arranged between the upper workpiece and the lower workpiece, and the fastener 2 passes through the upper workpiece, and the bushing will rest against the installation surface of the lower workpiece. As the fastener 2 is tightened, the compensating bushing 1 begins to deform until the fastener 2 is screwed into the appropriate position, at which time the adjustment component 100 is filled between the upper and lower workpieces through its own deformation. Due to the elastic characteristics of the compensating bushing 1, the deformation of the bushing will decrease after the fastener 2 is screwed out until it is completely restored. Therefore, the adjustment component 100 can be reused, and the installed adjustment component 100 can also repeatedly adjust the gap between the upper and lower workpieces as the fastener 2 is screwed in and out.

[0049] According to the compensation bushing 1 of the second aspect embodiment of the utility model, the compensation bushing 1 is arranged between the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door, and the two ends of the compensation bushing 1 are respectively abutted against the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door, and the compensation bushing 1 is formed with an adjustment part 11, and the adjustment part 11 is used to generate deformation when the adjustment component 100 is squeezed by the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door.

[0050] The compensating bushing 1 according to the embodiment of the utility model has a simple structure and ingenious design, which solves the problem of compensating and maintaining the gap between workpieces, ensures that the gap value between the workpieces is filled and maintained, reduces the assembly error between the workpieces, reduces the assembly difficulty between the workpieces, and improves the assembly efficiency of the workpieces.

[0051] The vehicle according to the third embodiment of the utility model comprises: a vehicle door and an adjustment assembly 100 according to the first embodiment of the utility model, the vehicle door having an inner panel 200 and an outer panel 300, the adjustment assembly 100 being arranged on the vehicle door, one end of the compensation bushing 1 of the adjustment assembly 100 abutting against the inner panel 200 and the other end abutting against the outer panel 300, and the compensation bushing 1 deforms when being squeezed by the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300. Therefore, the structural design of the adjustment assembly 100 is ingenious, which ensures the connection stability between the inner panel 200 of the vehicle door and the outer panel 300 of the vehicle door.

[0052] According to the vehicle of the embodiment of the utility model, by setting the adjustment component 100 according to the first aspect of the utility model, the connection stability between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the detachable door is ensured, the problem of compensating and maintaining the gap between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 of the door is solved, and the gap value between the inner panel 200 and the outer panel 300 is ensured to be filled and maintained, thereby reducing the door assembly error and improving the production quality of the vehicle.
