Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicle parts, and more specifically relates to a side enclosure outer plate support frame and a side enclosure assembly. Background Art

[0002] The side panel and the wheel arch panel form a space in the left and right directions, and corresponding refueling ports are provided on the rear side of the side panel and the wheel arch panel, respectively. The refueling ports are connected to the fuel tank through a fuel pipe and are used to inject fuel into the fuel tank. Users frequently touch the side panel when refueling, which can easily cause the side panel to sink into the space during frequent use, causing the entire side panel to deform. In addition, the refueling cap assembly is also installed on the side panel and is located near the refueling port, causing the outer edge of the refueling port on the side panel to bear a large assembly force, increasing the probability of deformation of the area near the refueling port on the side panel.

[0003] Existing vehicles have a support structure disposed on the inner side of the side panel, and the support structure is respectively connected to the side panel and the wheel cover assembly to ensure that the side panel does not sink into the spacing space after being subjected to force. For example, a support member including a support plate and a support leg is disposed between the side panel and the wheel hub welding assembly, the support plate is attached to and fixed on the wheel hub welding assembly, one end of the support leg is fixedly connected to the support plate, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side panel. Although the above scheme can reduce the concave phenomenon in the area near the fuel filler port of the side panel caused by factors such as touching during refueling, the contact area between the support leg and the side panel is limited, and the support plate is away from the side panel. Therefore, the support member cannot provide assembly force to the fuel filler cap assembly, and the area near the fuel filler port of the side panel is still easily deformed due to the assembly of the fuel filler cap assembly.

In the claims, specification and the above drawings of the present utility model, if the terms "including", "having" and their variations are used, it is intended to mean "including but not limited to".

[0029] It should be noted that the rear section structure of the side enclosure includes a wheel house outer panel 501 , a C-pillar reinforcement plate 502 and a side window connecting plate 503 .

[0030] Please also read Figures 1 to 4 The side panel support frame and the side panel assembly provided by the utility model are now described. The side panel support frame includes a support body 1 arranged around the outer periphery of the side panel refueling port 601. The support body 1 corresponds to at least 1 / 2 of the circumference of the side panel refueling port 601 and is respectively connected to the side panel 6 and the side panel rear section structure 5 in the left and right directions.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the side panel support frame provided by the utility model is arranged around the outer periphery of the side panel refueling port 601 and corresponds to at least 1 / 2 of the circumference of the side panel refueling port 601, thereby increasing the contact area with the side panel 6 and the side panel rear section structure 5, and not only providing support to the side panel 6 in the left and right directions, but also preventing the side panel 6 from being sunken toward the side close to the side panel rear section structure 5 after being subjected to force. Moreover, since the contact area with the side panel 6 is increased and the support body 1 is arranged around the outer periphery of the side panel refueling port 601, the strength of the area near the side panel refueling port 601 can be increased. After the refueling port cap assembly is installed on the side panel 6, the anti-deformation capacity of the area near the side panel refueling port 601 is increased, and the probability of deformation of the area near the side panel refueling port 601 due to the assembly force of the refueling port cap assembly is reduced.

[0032] It should be noted that the support body 1 can be a ring-shaped structure or a polygonal structure connected end to end, such as a circular ring structure or a rectangular structure; it can also be a combination of an arc structure and a polygonal structure, such as a combination of a section of an arc structure and a section of a straight plate structure. Of course, the support body 1 can also have an opening, but the support body 1 at least corresponds to 1 / 2 of the circumference of the side outer panel refueling port 601, and the opening corresponds to the top of the wheel eyebrow. Since the wheel eyebrow of the side outer panel 6 is relatively strong and has sufficient anti-deformation ability, the support body 1 has an opening here without affecting the support strength.

[0033] Optionally, the support body 1 includes an arc-shaped component surrounding the outer circumference of the fuel filling port 601 and a straight portion connected to one end of the arc-shaped component.

[0034] Optionally, the support body 1 corresponds to 3 / 4 of the circumference of the fuel filling port 601 .

[0035] Optionally, the support body 1 is bonded, welded or detachably connected to the side enclosure outer panel 6 and / or the side enclosure rear section structure 5 .

[0036] Optionally, the support body 1 may be an integral structure, or may include a plurality of independent support bodies, wherein two adjacent support bodies are spaced apart from each other, and the support body 1 formed by the plurality of support bodies corresponds to at least 1 / 2 of the circumference of the fuel filler port.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 The side outer panel support frame also includes a reinforcement 2 connected to the outer periphery of the support body 1, the reinforcement 2 extends in a direction parallel to the normal line of the side outer panel refueling port 601, and the reinforcement 2 is connected to the side outer panel 6.

[0038] In this embodiment, a reinforcement member 2 is provided on the periphery of the support body 1 to increase the contact area with the side panel 6 and / or the side panel rear structure 5, thereby improving the support strength and anti-deformation capability. In addition, the connection firmness between the side panel support frame and the side panel 6 and / or the side panel rear structure 5 can also be increased.

[0039] Optionally, the reinforcement member 2 and the supporting body 1 are an integral component.

[0040] Optionally, the reinforcement 2 is also connected to the side panel rear section structure 5 .

[0041] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 The side panel outer plate support frame also includes a mounting member 3 connected to the support body 1, and the mounting member 3 is detachably connected to the side panel rear section structure 5.

[0042] First, the mounting member 3 is detachably connected to the side panel rear section structure 5, and then the mounting member 3 is fixed to the side panel rear section structure 5 and the side panel outer panel 6 by bonding or welding. The solution in this embodiment is relatively simple to rely on welding or bonding, and further increases the firmness and stability of the connection. At the same time, positioning can be achieved through detachable connection, avoiding the problem of installation misalignment due to inaccurate positioning during bonding or welding, and the problem of difficulty in subsequent disassembly and reinstallation.

[0043] Optionally, the mounting member 3 is screwed, plugged or snapped with the side enclosure rear section structure 5. The side enclosure rear section structure 5 can be set on a snap-on member adapted to the mounting member 3, or a mounting hole can be opened, and the mounting member 3 is inserted into the mounting hole, and fixed by screwing, plugging or snapping.

[0044] Optionally, the mounting member 3 is also coated with a sealant 4, which is bonded to the side enclosure rear section structure 5. The sealant 4 cooperates with the fixing member 3 to increase the connection stability with the side enclosure rear section structure 5 and prevent the fixing member from shaking. In addition, after the sealant 4 expands, it provides a reverse force to the side enclosure outer panel support frame, so that the side enclosure outer panel support frame abuts against the side enclosure outer panel 6, avoiding a gap between the side enclosure outer panel support frame and the side enclosure outer panel 6, improving the support effect, and increasing the deformation resistance of the side enclosure outer panel 6.

[0045] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 6 to Figure 7 The mounting member 3 includes a fixing portion 301 connected to the outer periphery of the supporting body 1 , and a connecting portion 302 connected to the fixing portion 301 , and the connecting portion 302 is plug-in or snap-fitted with the side panel rear section structure 5 .

[0046] The connecting portion 302 is connected to the fixing portion 301 in the left-right direction, and is connected to the side panel rear section structure 5 in the left-right direction. The solution in this embodiment realizes the connection between the connecting portion 302 and the supporting body 1 through the fixing portion 301, and a spacing space can be formed between the connecting portion 302 and the supporting body 1, so as to adapt to the connecting structure on the side panel rear section structure 5.

[0047] Optionally, a sealant 4 is provided on one side of the fixing portion 301 close to the side enclosure rear section structure 5 , and the sealant 4 expands upon heat and adheres to the side enclosure rear section structure 5 , thereby increasing the firmness and stability of the connection and preventing the mounting member 3 from shaking.

[0048] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The supporting body 1 is provided with a fixing groove, and the fixing portion 301 is inserted into the fixing groove.

[0049] The fixing portion 301 is inserted into the fixing groove, which increases the contact area between the fixing portion 301 and the supporting body 1 and improves the firmness and stability of the connection.

[0050] Optionally, the support body 1 and the fixing portion 301 are an integral component, or the fixing portion 301 is inserted into the fixing groove and then bonded to the support body 1 .

[0051] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The connecting portion 302 is a conical member, and the diameter of the connecting portion 302 gradually decreases toward the side away from the fixing portion 301 . A through hole 3021 is opened in the center of the connecting portion 302 along its own axial direction.

[0052] When the through hole 3021 is formed, the connecting portion 302 has deformation space in the radial direction, and the connecting portion 302 is plugged into the connecting structure of the side enclosure rear section structure 5, and the fixing of the connecting portion 302 and the connecting structure is achieved by extrusion deformation.

[0053] Optionally, the rear section structure 5 of the side enclosure is provided with a snap-fitting piece or a connecting hole, and the small diameter end (free end) of the connecting portion 302 is first inserted into the snap-fitting piece or the connecting hole. As the insertion depth increases, the connecting portion 302 is squeezed and deformed, and is fixed to the rear section structure 5 of the side enclosure by friction.

[0054] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 The side outer panel support frame also includes a sealant 4 arranged on the left and right sides of the support body 1, and the sealant 4 bonds the support body 1 to the side outer panel 6 and the side rear section structure 5.

[0055] On the one hand, the sealant 4 can close the gaps between the support body 1 and the side enclosure outer panel 6, and between the support body 1 and the side enclosure rear section structure 5, so that the support body 1 is in close contact with the side enclosure outer panel 6 and the side enclosure rear section structure 5, thereby providing effective support for the side enclosure outer panel 6. On the other hand, the sealant 4 expands upward and / or upwards of the support body 1 after being heated, thereby further increasing the contact area with the side enclosure outer panel 6 and the side enclosure rear section structure 5, thereby preventing the side enclosure outer panel 6 from being deformed after being subjected to force.

[0056] It should be noted that controlling the amount of the sealant 4 laid can prevent the sealant 4 from expanding excessively toward the upper side of the support body 1 , thereby preventing the sealant 4 from affecting the use of the fuel filler port 601 after expansion.

[0057] Optionally, the sealant 4 is a foamed sealant that expands when heated, such as a foamed sealant made of EVA material.

[0058] Optionally, other surfaces of the support body 1 that are in contact with the side panel rear section structure 5 are also coated with sealant 4 .

[0059] Optionally, the other surfaces of the support body 1 in contact with the side panel 6 are also coated with sealant 4. The contact surface of the reinforcement 2 with the side panel is provided with sealant. This embodiment can maximize the contact area with the side panel and improve the firmness and reliability of the bonding. In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The support body 1 includes a support plate 101 and a reinforcing flange 102 connected to the support plate 101 , and the reinforcing flange 102 is connected to the left side and / or the right side of the support plate 101 .

[0060] Compared with the solution of only setting the support plate 101, the solution in this embodiment, on the one hand, increases the strength of the support body 1 to prevent the support body 1 from deforming after being subjected to force; on the other hand, it can also increase the contact area and improve the firmness of the connection by strengthening the flange 102 to connect with the side panel outer panel 6 and / or the side panel rear section structure 5, thereby reducing the probability of deformation at the connection.

[0061] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The support body 1 also includes a reinforcing rib 103 arranged on the outer periphery of the support plate 101 , and at least one end of the reinforcing rib 103 is connected to the reinforcing flange 102 .

[0062] The reinforcing ribs 103 further improve the strength of the support plate 101 , increase the deformation resistance of the support plate 101 , and avoid the problem that the support plate 101 is squeezed by the side outer panel 6 after being stressed, causing the support plate 101 to deform.

[0063] Optionally, a sealant 4 is provided on the side of the reinforcing rib 103 away from the supporting plate 101 for bonding with the surrounding structure. Based on the same inventive concept, the utility model also provides a side enclosure assembly. Figures 5 to 7The side panel assembly includes any one of the side panel outer panel support frames mentioned above.

[0064] The side panel assembly provided by the utility model adopts the above-mentioned side panel outer panel support frame, which is arranged around the outer periphery of the side panel outer panel refueling port 601 and corresponds to at least 1 / 2 of the circumference of the side panel outer panel refueling port 601, thereby increasing the contact area with the side panel outer panel 6 and the side panel rear section structure 5, and can not only provide support to the side panel outer panel 6 in the left and right directions, but also prevent the side panel outer panel 6 from being sunken toward the side close to the side panel rear section structure 5 after being subjected to force. Moreover, since the contact area with the side panel outer panel 6 is increased and the support body 1 is arranged around the outer periphery of the side panel outer panel refueling port 601, the strength of the area near the side panel outer panel refueling port 601 can be increased. After the refueling port cap assembly is installed on the side panel outer panel 6, the deformation resistance of the area near the side panel outer panel refueling port 601 is increased, and the probability of deformation of the area near the side panel outer panel refueling port 601 due to the assembly force of the refueling port cap assembly is reduced.

[0065] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
