Specifically, the X direction represents the length direction, the Y direction represents the width direction, the Z direction represents the height direction, and the side pointed by the arrow is the upper side, and the opposite side is the lower side. "Inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside of the contour of each component itself. The terms "first" and "second" are used to distinguish one element from another and do not have order and importance. In addition, when the following description refers to the drawings, the same figure numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements, and the present disclosure will not elaborate on this.

[0028] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a vehicle door lock structure is provided, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in , the vehicle door lock structure includes a lock core 1 and a protective structure 2 . The protective structure 2 is suitable for connecting with the vehicle door 10 to form an installation cavity 100 . The lock core 1 is at least partially disposed in the installation cavity 100 and connected to the protective structure 2 .

[0029] Through the above technical scheme, in the vehicle door lock structure provided by the present invention, after the vehicle door lock structure and the vehicle door 10 are assembled, the lock core 1 can be at least partially set in the installation cavity 100 and connected to the protective structure 2. In this way, the protective structure 2 and the vehicle door 10 can be collectively regarded as a "safety box". The protective structure 2 can be used to prevent people outside the vehicle from inserting tools such as hooks into the installation cavity 100, thereby preventing people outside the vehicle from damaging the lock core 1. In addition, the connection between the lock core 1 and the protective structure 2 can improve the stability of the lock core 1, thereby preventing people outside the vehicle from damaging the lock core 1. Therefore, the technical problem that the lock core 1 is easily damaged is solved, and the anti-theft ability of the vehicle door lock structure is improved.

[0030] It should be noted that in the present disclosure, the protective structure 2 can form the installation cavity 100 alone, or it can form the installation cavity 100 together with the vehicle door 10, and the present disclosure only takes the latter as an example for illustrative introduction. In addition, the present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the protective structure 2, and the present disclosure will be described in detail in the following embodiments. In addition, the lock core 1 can be completely set in the installation cavity 100, or it can extend out of the installation cavity 100, and the present disclosure does not limit this. When the lock core 1 extends out of the installation cavity 100, the portion of the lock core 1 extending out of the installation cavity 100 can be provided with rounded corners. In this way, there is no place to apply force from the front of the lock core 1, preventing the lock core 1 from being pried.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in , the protective structure 2 is suitable for connecting with the vehicle door 10 to form a closed installation cavity 100. In this way, the setting of the closed installation cavity 100 can further prevent the personnel of the vehicle door 10 from inserting hooks and other tools into the installation cavity 100, effectively reducing the possibility of the lock core 1 being damaged. In addition, the closed installation cavity 100 can prevent the part of the lock core 1 set in the installation cavity 100 from being exposed to rain and dust, etc., effectively ensuring the service life of the lock core 1. It should be noted that the closure here does not mean complete closure. The protective structure 2 can be provided with a through hole 221 for exposing the lock core 1, and the through hole 221 is connected to the installation cavity 100, and the rest of the installation cavity 100 is completely closed.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in , the protective structure 2 can be formed into a groove-shaped structure having an opening 21, and the protective structure 2 is suitable for connecting with the vehicle door 10 on one side of the opening 21 to form a closed installation cavity 100. Here, the opening 21 is used to facilitate the placement of the lock core 1 in the installation cavity 100, so as to facilitate the assembly of the vehicle door lock structure and the vehicle door 10. Here, in some embodiments, the vehicle door 10 may include an outer panel 101 and an inner panel 104, wherein the inner panel 104 may be connected to the protective structure 2 to form a closed installation cavity 100, and the protective structure 2 may include a groove bottom wall 22 arranged opposite to the opening 21, and the lock core 1 may extend out of the groove bottom wall 22 to extend out of the installation cavity 100 in a direction close to the outer panel 101. In this way, on the one hand, the formation of the installation cavity 100 is facilitated, and on the other hand, it is convenient for the user to insert the key into the lock core 1 through the outer panel 101, thereby facilitating the release of the insurance of the entire vehicle. For example, referring to Figure 2 As shown in , a through hole 221 may be provided on the groove bottom wall 22, and the lock core 1 is at least partially penetrated in the through hole 221, that is, the lock core 1 extends out of the protective structure 2 through the through hole, thereby facilitating the user to insert the key into the lock core 1.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the lock core 1 can be connected to the protective structure 2 in any suitable manner. For example, in some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in , the door lock structure may include a snap-in component 3, which is disposed in the mounting cavity 100 and connected to the protective structure 2, and the snap-in component 3 is sleeved on the outside of the lock core 1 and connected to the lock core 1. In this way, the lock core 1 and the protective structure 2 can be snapped together by using the snap-in component 3, which has a simple structure and is easy to operate, and the clamp can transfer the force of the lock core 1 to the protective structure 2, so that the load on the lock core 1 is shared by the protective structure 2, reducing the possibility of the lock core 1 being damaged. Here, the protective structure 2 may be formed with a slot (not shown in the figure), and the snap-in component 3 may be snap-connected with the slot, which is not limited in the present disclosure. In addition, in some embodiments, the snap-in component 3 may be configured as a clamp.

[0034] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in , the protective structure 2 may have a groove bottom wall 22 arranged opposite to the opening 21, and the clamping member 3 may be connected to the groove bottom wall 22. In this way, compared with connecting the clamping member 3 to the groove side wall 23 of the protective structure 2, the connection area of ​​the clamping member 3 and the protective structure 2 can be increased, and the connection strength between the protective structure 2 and the lock core 1 can be increased, thereby improving the stability of the lock core 1.

[0035] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in , the door lock structure may include a fastener 4, and the fastener 4 may be connected between the lock core 1 and the groove side wall 23 of the protective structure 2.
