The terms used in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" used in the specification of this application includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0031] With the continuous development of new energy vehicles, the performance of the vehicle body has also been greatly improved. At present, in CTC integration technology, since the battery pack and the vehicle body need to be integrated, higher requirements are put forward for the sealing of the body in white, and the efficiency of the skeleton connection of the body in white must be further improved.
[0032] However, the traditional BIW skeleton structure is relatively simple to connect, and the components are relatively independent. For example, the rear end structure of the BIW skeleton is simply connected to the sill beam and the rear floor longitudinal beam to form the left and right side beam assemblies, and then the left and right side beam assemblies are spliced through the crossbeam structure to form a simple ladder-shaped structure. This structure is affected by the processability of the components, and it is easy to form many "rat holes" at the joints, which not only has poor sealing performance, but also low connection efficiency, resulting in poor overall performance of the BIW.
[0033] See also Figure 1-Figure 7In order to solve the problems of poor sealing and low connection efficiency between parts in the existing body-in-white structure, the present application provides a body frame structure 100. The body frame structure 100 includes a rear floor assembly 10 and a front floor assembly 20. The rear floor assembly 10 includes a first crossbeam 111, a second crossbeam 112 and two longitudinal beams 113. The two longitudinal beams 113 are arranged between the first crossbeam 111 and the second crossbeam 112, and are respectively connected to the first crossbeam 111 and the second crossbeam 112 to form a first annular body 11. The first annular body 11 is provided with an annular channel 1101 extending along its own circumference. The outer wall of the annular channel 1101 located on the first crossbeam 111 is defined as a first side wall 1111, and the outer wall of the annular channel 1101 located on the longitudinal beam 113 is defined as a second side wall 1131. A notch 1102 is formed at the connection between the first side wall 1111 and the second side wall 1131. The front floor assembly 20 includes a door sill beam 211, and the vehicle body frame structure 100 also includes an extension plate 30, which is arranged at the notch 1102, and along the thickness direction of the extension plate 30, one side of the extension plate 30 is respectively attached to and connected to the bottom wall of the annular channel 1101, the inner wall of the first side wall 1111 and the inner wall of the second side wall 1131, and the other side is used for the door sill beam 211 to be erected and connected to the door sill beam 211.
[0034] It is understandable that the present application sets an extension plate 30 at the position of the notch 1102 at the connection between the first cross beam 111 and the longitudinal beam 113. The extension plate 30 can achieve a fitting connection between the first cross beam 111 and the longitudinal beam 113 and seal the notch 1102. On the one hand, the structural strength of the notch 1102 is greatly improved. On the other hand, when the threshold beam 211 is connected to the first cross beam 111 and the longitudinal beam 113 through the extension plate 30, the "rat hole" defect formed by the traditional process can be avoided, thereby greatly improving the sealing performance of the vehicle body. At the same time, the vehicle body frame structure 100 formed after the connection is relatively simple and compact, which is conducive to optimizing the overall connection performance and layout space, thereby greatly improving the connection efficiency of the rear floor assembly 10 and the front floor assembly 20, and greatly improving the torsional stiffness of the vehicle body.
[0035] Specifically, in the present application, the annular channel 1101 is a U-shaped groove structure with one end open, thereby facilitating the installation of other components in the annular channel 1101 and reducing the difficulty of installation.
[0036] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the extension plate 30 and the threshold beam 211 are both in a "J"-shaped structure. Since the "J"-shaped structure has multiple sides, it can effectively reduce the difficulty of fitting the extension plate 30 with the first side wall 1111 and the second side wall 1131, thereby improving the reliability of the overall connection. The threshold beam 211 is compatible with the extension plate 30 in shape, which also facilitates the connection between the threshold beam 211 and the extension plate 30.
[0037] Specifically, the extension plate 30 is installed sideways at the notch 1102, that is, the "J"-shaped opening of the extension plate 30 faces away from the first crossbeam 111. The extension plate 30 includes a first bending plate 31, a second bending plate 32, and a vertical plate 33 connecting the first bending plate 31 and the second bending plate 32. One side surface of the first bending plate 31 is attached to the bottom wall of the annular channel 1101, and the two ends of the vertical plate 33 are attached to the inner wall of the first side wall 1111 and the inner wall of the second side wall 1131, respectively. The end of the second bending plate 32 close to the second side wall 1131 is also attached to the inner wall of the second side wall 1131. Here, the first bending plate 31, the second bending plate 32 and the vertical plate 33 can be fixedly connected by spot welding.
[0038] Likewise, the end portion of the door sill beam 211 is inserted into the extension plate 30 and fixedly connected to the extension plate 30 by spot welding.
[0039] To further improve the sealing performance of the vehicle body frame structure 100 , in one embodiment, the first cross beam 111 , the second cross beam 112 and the two longitudinal beams 113 may be configured as an integrated structure, thereby reducing sealing defects caused by splicing.
[0040] The first cross beam 111, the second cross beam 112 and the two longitudinal beams 113 are preferably made of steel and are processed by an integrated hot forming process.
[0041] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, from the direction of the second cross beam 112 to the first cross beam 111, the bottom wall of the annular channel 1101 at the notch 1102 tends to gradually decrease in height, thereby forming a slope. In this way, a certain height difference can be formed, thereby achieving a transition to the door sill beam 211, reducing the difficulty of connecting the door sill beam 211. At the same time, it is also beneficial to collect water at the notch 1102.
[0042] To discharge the collected water, in one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, a drainage gap 1103 is formed between the extension plate 30, the first side wall 1111 and the bottom wall of the annular channel 1101. The threshold beam 211 is provided with drainage holes, which are arranged corresponding to and communicated with the drainage gap 1103.
[0043] Usually, the threshold beam 211 will form a relatively sealed chamber after being connected with other structures. At this time, by setting the drainage gap 1103 and opening corresponding drainage holes on the threshold beam 211, it is helpful to drain water into the cavity of the threshold beam 211 and then discharge it from the threshold beam 211, and the entire drainage process is safer and more reliable.
[0044] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the front floor assembly 20 further includes a front enclosure frame 212, a front floor panel 23 and a battery tray 22. The front enclosure frame 212 is connected to one end of the door sill beam 211 away from the first cross beam 111, and the front enclosure frame 212, the two door sill beams 211 and the first cross beam 111 form a second annular body 21. The front floor panel 23 and the battery tray 22 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second annular body 21, and are both connected to the second annular body 21 to form a receiving cavity 2201 for installing the battery cell.
[0045] That is, the first annular body 11 and the second annular body 21 share the first cross beam 111, so that the two are arranged close to each other, which can effectively improve the utilization of space. At the same time, the two annular structures can greatly improve the connection performance of the body frame structure 100, thereby greatly improving the torsional rigidity of the body.
[0046] Furthermore, the rear floor assembly 10 also includes a rear floor panel (not shown), which is installed on one side of the first annular body 11 along the height direction of the vehicle body, wherein the other side of the first annular body 11 can be used to install the rear motor and chassis structural parts, etc.
[0047] As a preferred solution, the present embodiment sets the front floor panel 23 as an integrated structure, so that when the front floor panel 23 is connected to the second annular body 21, it can form a more sealed accommodation cavity 2201 structure with the battery tray 22. In this way, the safety of the electrical components such as the battery cells in the accommodation cavity 2201 can be greatly improved, so as to better adapt to the technical updates and iterations of the CTC structure (Cell to Chassis, battery chassis integrated design), and at the same time, it can also effectively improve the sound insulation effect of the vehicle body. The rear floor panel can be set as an integrated structure or a split structure according to actual needs, and can be reasonably set according to actual needs.
[0048] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a first connection area 114 is provided on the bottom wall of the annular channel 1101. The first connection area 114 is provided on the first cross beam 111 and extends to the connection between the first cross beam 111 and the longitudinal beam 113. Part of the battery tray 22 is connected to the first connection area 114. In this way, the contact area between the first cross beam 111 and the battery tray 22 can be increased, thereby achieving a reliable connection of the battery tray 22.
[0049] Specifically, the first connection area 114 is provided with a plurality of connection holes 1141 arranged at intervals to facilitate connection with the battery tray 22. Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the rear of the battery tray 22 is connected to the first connection area 114 , the left and right sides of the battery tray 22 are respectively connected to two door sill beams 211 , and the front side of the battery tray 22 is connected to the front enclosure frame 212 .
[0050] It should be noted that the front of the battery tray 22 refers to the side close to the front of the vehicle along the length direction of the vehicle body, the rear of the battery tray 22 refers to the side close to the rear of the vehicle along the length direction of the vehicle body, and the left and right sides of the battery tray 22 refer to the corresponding sides along the width direction of the vehicle body.
[0051] Further, in one embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, a second connection area 115 is further provided on the bottom wall of the annular channel 1101, and the second connection area 115 is provided at the connection between the first cross beam 111 and the longitudinal beam 113, and the second connection area 115 is provided behind the first connection area 114 and close to the first connection area 114. The rear floor assembly 10 further includes a chassis dowel rod (not shown), and the chassis dowel rod is connected to the second connection area 115.
[0052] In this way, by arranging the second connection area 115 close to the first connection area 114, the overall structure is more compact, which can further improve space utilization.
[0053] Specifically, a mounting bracket 1151 is provided on the second connection area 115, and the chassis dowel rod is installed on the second connection area 115 through the mounting bracket 1151. In order to improve the connection reliability of the mounting bracket 1151, the surrounding side of the mounting bracket 1151 can be connected and fixed to the inner wall of the first side wall 1111, the inner wall of the second side wall 1131 and the extension plate 30 respectively.
[0054] In one embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, the first cross beam 111 is provided with a plurality of leakage holes 1104, which are connected to the annular channel 1101. In this way, the electrophoresis liquid after electrophoresis is easily discharged, and the drainage function can also be further realized, which is beneficial to improving the anti-corrosion performance of the vehicle body frame structure 100.
[0055] The present application also provides a new energy vehicle, which includes the vehicle body frame structure 100 of any one of the above embodiments.
[0056] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0057] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the scope of patent protection of the present application shall be subject to the attached claims.
