[0040] The utility model provides a cover plate assembly, which is applied to a vehicle and is used for opening or closing an interface slot provided with an energy interface, wherein the energy interface may be a charging port or a refueling port.

[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a cover plate assembly provided by the utility model.

[0042] In one embodiment of the utility model, the cover assembly is applied to a vehicle, the vehicle has a body, the body is provided with an interface groove, the interface groove is provided with an energy interface, and the cover assembly includes:

[0043] A mounting bracket 100, used for connecting to a vehicle body;

[0044] The cover plate assembly 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 100 to have an open position for opening the interface slot and a closed position for closing the interface slot; and

[0045] The support structure 300 is disposed on a side of the cover assembly 200 facing the interface groove. When the cover assembly 200 is in the closed position, the support structure 300 extends into the interface groove and abuts against the inner wall of the interface groove.

[0046] The height of the support structure 300 protruding from the cover assembly 200 is adjustable so that the outer surface of the cover assembly 200 is flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body.

[0047] The cover assembly in the technical solution of the utility model includes a mounting bracket 100, a cover assembly 200 and a supporting structure 300. The mounting bracket 100 serves to connect the vehicle body and support the cover assembly 200. The cover assembly 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 100. The cover assembly 200 can be switched to an open position or a closed position by its own rotation. In the open position, the interface slot is open, and the user can charge or refuel the vehicle through the energy interface; in the closed position, the interface slot is closed, and the cover assembly 200 protects the energy interface to prevent dust, rain, snow and other debris from contaminating or damaging the energy interface. The support structure 300 is arranged on the side of the cover assembly 200 facing the interface groove. When the cover assembly 200 is in the closed position, the support structure 300 abuts against the inner wall of the interface groove in the interface groove, and the support structure 300 and the mounting bracket 100 jointly support the cover assembly 200, wherein, by adjusting the height of the support structure 300 protruding from the cover assembly 200, the distance between the cover assembly 200 in the closed position and the inner wall of the interface groove can be adjusted, thereby absorbing the processing errors of the cover assembly and the vehicle body and the assembly errors between the cover assembly and the vehicle body, avoiding the cover assembly 200 from protruding or recessed relative to the vehicle body, and then making the outer surface of the cover assembly 200 flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body. On the one hand, it can reduce the manufacturing accuracy requirements and assembly accuracy requirements of the cover assembly, reduce rework and reinstallation, and improve assembly efficiency; on the other hand, it can reduce the problem of loose closing and ensure the protective effect of the cover assembly 200 on the energy interface; on the other hand, it improves the aesthetics of the vehicle. After the vehicle has been used for a long time and the cover assembly 200 has been opened and closed many times, even if the outer surface of the cover assembly 200 is not flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body, the user can adjust the height of the protrusion of the support structure 300 to make the outer surface of the cover assembly 200 flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body again without replacing or disassembling and reinstalling the entire cover assembly, thereby reducing the difficulty of vehicle maintenance and the cost of use.

[0048] Among them, the height of the support structure 300 protruding from the cover assembly 200 is adjustable, which can be achieved by sliding in combination with a positioning structure. For example, a plurality of positioning holes are set in the height direction of the support structure 300, and positioning pins corresponding to the positioning holes are set on the cover assembly 200. The positioning pins are inserted into different positioning holes so that the height of the support structure 300 protruding from the cover assembly 200 is different; it can also be achieved by threaded connection between the support structure 300 and the cover assembly 200, and the height of the support structure 300 protruding from the cover assembly 200 is changed by operating the support structure 300 to screw in or out.

[0049] In one embodiment, the support structure 300 includes an adjusting member 310 , one end of which is threadedly connected to the cover assembly 200 , and the height of the adjusting member 310 protruding from the cover assembly 200 is adjustable by adjusting the thread.

[0050] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment of the utility model, the support structure 300 includes an adjusting member 310. When the cover assembly 200 is in the closed position, one end of the adjusting member 310 away from the cover assembly 200 abuts against the inner wall of the interface groove. Through the threaded connection between the adjusting member 310 and the cover assembly 200, the height of the adjusting member 310 protruding from the cover assembly 200 is adjustable. On the one hand, the structure is simple, the manufacturing difficulty and the assembly difficulty are low, and the manufacturing cost of the cover assembly is reduced; on the other hand, the adjustment method is simple and fast, easy to operate, and no tools are required; on the other hand, the height of the adjusting member 310 is adjusted steplessly, thereby improving the effect of the support structure 300 absorbing tolerances and making it easier to make the outer surface of the cover assembly 200 flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body.

[0051] In one embodiment, the adjusting member 310 is made of elastic material.

[0052] In an embodiment of the utility model, the adjusting member 310 is made of an elastic material, such as rubber or polyurethane, so that the adjusting member 310 has a certain elasticity. When the cover assembly 200 is switched from an open position to a closed position, the elastic adjusting member 310 elastically collides with the inner wall of the interface groove, and the adjusting member 310 plays a buffering role, thereby reducing the vibration and impact of the cover assembly 200 and extending the service life of the cover assembly.

[0053] In one embodiment, the support structure 300 further includes a buffer member, which is disposed at one end of the adjustment member 310 away from the cover plate assembly 200 , and the buffer member is used to elastically abut against the inner wall of the interface groove.

[0054] In an embodiment of the utility model, the support structure 300 also includes a buffer, which can be made of elastic materials such as rubber or polyurethane, or a spring-like part. The buffer is arranged at one end of the adjustment member 310 away from the cover assembly 200. When the cover assembly 200 is switched from an open position to a closed position, the buffer elastically collides with the inner wall of the interface groove, thereby reducing vibration and impact on the cover assembly 200 and extending the service life of the cover assembly.

[0055] In one embodiment, a plurality of support structures 300 are provided, and the plurality of support structures 300 are spaced apart along the height direction of the vehicle body.

[0056] Reference Figure 1In the embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of support structures 300 are provided on the cover plate assembly 200. On the one hand, the support effect of the support structure 300 on the cover plate assembly 200 is improved, and the possibility of the cover plate assembly 200 in the closed position being sunken into the interface groove under the action of external force is reduced; on the other hand, different support structures 300 can be individually adjusted in height according to the error size of the set position, further improving the level of flushness between the outer surface of the cover plate assembly 200 and the outer surface of the vehicle body. Specifically in this embodiment, two support structures 300 are provided on the cover plate assembly 200, and the two support structures 300 are spaced apart along the height direction of the vehicle, ensuring the level of flushness between the outer surface of the cover plate assembly 200 and the outer surface of the vehicle body in the height direction of the vehicle.

[0057] In one embodiment, the cover plate assembly 200 includes:

[0058] an outer cover plate 210; and

[0059] The reinforcement member 220 is fixed to a side of the outer cover plate 210 facing the interface groove, and the support structure 300 is disposed on a side of the reinforcement member 220 facing away from the outer cover plate 210; and

[0060] The connection structure 230 is rotated to rotate and connect the reinforcement member 220 and the mounting bracket 100 .

[0061] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In an embodiment of the utility model, the cover assembly 200 includes an outer cover 210, a reinforcement 220 and a rotating connection structure 230. The outer cover 210 mainly plays a protective role. When the cover assembly 200 is in a closed position, the outer surface of the outer cover 210 is flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body; the support structure 300 and the rotating connection structure 230 are both arranged on the reinforcement 220. The reinforcement 220 mainly plays a connecting and supporting role. Specifically, the reinforcement 220 is provided with a plurality of raised reinforcement ribs 221, which improves its own strength, thereby improving the strength of the entire cover assembly 200 and reducing the possibility of deformation of the cover assembly 200; the rotating connection structure 230 is responsible for realizing the rotating connection with the mounting bracket 100, which can be realized in various forms such as pivoting and hinged. The structure of the entire cover plate assembly 200 is relatively simple and easy to manufacture. Specifically in this embodiment, the outer cover plate 210 and the reinforcement 220 are both made of galvanized plates, which are low in cost. A plurality of weight-reducing openings are also provided on the reinforcement 220, which not only reduces the weight of the cover plate assembly 200, but also reduces the material cost of the cover plate assembly 200.

[0062] Combination Figures 1 to 3In this embodiment, a protruding structure 222 is provided on the reinforcement member 220, which is arched in a direction away from the outer cover plate 210. An avoidance space is formed between the protruding structure 222 and the outer cover plate 210. An assembly hole is provided on the protruding structure 222. The outer wall of the adjustment member 310 is provided with a thread and penetrates the assembly hole on the protruding structure 222. The avoidance space provides sufficient space for height adjustment of the adjustment member 310. When the adjustment member 310 collides with the inner wall of the interface groove, the protruding structure 222 has high strength and can withstand more forces generated by the collision of the support structure 300, thereby reducing the possibility of deformation of the cover plate assembly 200.

[0063] In one embodiment, the rotation connection structure 230 includes a fixed shaft 231 . The fixed shaft 231 is fixed to a side of the reinforcement 220 facing the mounting bracket 100 . The mounting bracket 100 is rotationally connected to the fixed shaft 231 .

[0064] In the embodiment of the utility model, the rotation connection structure 230 includes a fixed shaft 231, and the fixed shaft 231 is fixed on the reinforcement member 220. The rotation connection with the mounting bracket 100 is achieved through the fixed shaft 231, and the structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0065] In one embodiment, one end of the mounting bracket 100 close to the reinforcement member 220 is rolled to form a mounting space 101, and the mounting bracket 100 is rotatably sleeved on the fixed shaft 231 through the mounting space 101; and / or,

[0066] The fixing shaft 231 and the supporting structure 300 are disposed at opposite ends of the reinforcement member 220 .

[0067] Reference Figure 4 In the embodiment of the utility model, the end of the mounting bracket 100 close to the reinforcement 220 is formed into a cylindrical mounting space 101 through a rolling process, and the mounting space 101 is sleeved outside the fixed shaft 231, which has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture and assemble, and reduces the production cost of the cover assembly. During the specific assembly, the fixed shaft 231 is first inserted into the mounting space 101, and then the two ends of the fixed shaft 231 are welded to the reinforcement 220.

[0068] Reference Figure 1In the embodiment of the utility model, the fixed shaft 231 and the support structure 300 are arranged at opposite ends of the reinforcement 220, that is, the fixed shaft 231 and the support structure 300 are arranged at opposite ends of the cover assembly 200. When the cover assembly 200 switches between the open position and the closed position, the relative position relationship between the end where the fixed shaft 231 is arranged and the vehicle body will hardly change, and the error of this end is easy to control when the cover assembly and the vehicle body are assembled. Therefore, the possibility and degree of the outer surface of the end where the fixed shaft 231 is arranged on the cover assembly 200 being not flush with the outer surface of the vehicle body are very low; while the relative position relationship between the end of the cover assembly 200 away from the fixed shaft 231 and the vehicle body changes greatly, and is greatly affected by the manufacturing error and the assembly error. Therefore, the support structure 300 is arranged at the end of the cover assembly 200 away from the fixed shaft 231, which can more effectively absorb the manufacturing error and the assembly error, thereby improving the degree of flushness between the outer surface of the cover assembly 200 and the outer surface of the vehicle body.

[0069] In one embodiment, the material of the fixed shaft 231 is stainless steel; and / or,

[0070] The mounting bracket 100 is made of stainless steel.

[0071] In the embodiment of the utility model, the fixed shaft 231 is made of stainless steel, which reduces the possibility of rusting of the fixed shaft 231, ensures the smoothness of the cover assembly 200 when rotating relative to the mounting bracket 100, and extends the service life of the cover assembly.

[0072] In the embodiment of the utility model, the mounting bracket 100 is made of stainless steel, which reduces the possibility of rusting of the mounting bracket 100, ensures the smoothness of the cover assembly 200 when rotating relative to the mounting bracket 100, and extends the service life of the cover assembly.

[0073] Specifically in this embodiment, except for the supporting structure 300, the entire cover plate assembly is made of metal material, which has high strength and rigidity, and is convenient to be processed together with other sheet metal parts of the vehicle, thereby reducing production costs.

[0074] The utility model also provides a vehicle, including the above-mentioned cover assembly. The specific structure of the cover assembly refers to the above-mentioned embodiment. Since the vehicle adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0075] The above description is only an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
