Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle installation, and more particularly, to a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The tailgate of a conventional vehicle is usually connected to the vehicle body via a single-axis hinge structure, which limits the opening angle of the tailgate. In addition, after long-term use, the single-axis hinge structure is easily worn, affecting the rotation reliability of the tailgate.

[0003] In a vehicle of the related art, in order to achieve a larger opening angle of the back door and improve the reliability of the back door, a design of replacing the single-axis hinge structure with a multi-link hinge structure is proposed. However, the multi-link hinge structure is relatively large in size, and the body of a conventional vehicle does not have sufficient installation space, making it difficult to install the multi-link hinge structure on the body, and there may be a problem of limited movement after installation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present application provides a vehicle, aiming to solve the problems of difficulty in installing a multi-link hinge structure on a vehicle body and possible movement restriction.

[0005] In a first aspect, a vehicle is provided, comprising a vehicle body, a tailgate and a hinge assembly; the vehicle body comprises a side panel, and a receiving cavity is provided at the top of the side panel; a part of the hinge assembly is located in the receiving cavity and connected to the side panel, and another part of the hinge assembly is located outside the receiving cavity and connected to the tailgate.

[0006] In the above technical solution, a receiving cavity is provided at the top of the side wall of the vehicle body, and the receiving cavity provides installation space and movement space for the hinge assembly. The hinge assembly is connected to the side wall and a part of the hinge assembly is located in the receiving cavity, so that when the hinge assembly moves, it is not easy to interfere with other structures in the vehicle. In this way, the hinge assembly is reliably installed on the vehicle body and the problem of limited movement of the hinge assembly is solved.

[0007] In combination with the first aspect, in some possible implementations, the hinge assembly includes a body connector, a movable structure and a tailgate connector; the body connector is fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity; one end of the movable structure is movably connected to the body connector, the tailgate connector is fixed to the tailgate, and the tailgate connector is movably connected to the other end of the movable structure.

[0008] In the above technical solution, the hinge assembly is fixed to the side wall through the body connector and to the back door through the back door connector, and the body connector is only fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity, so as to avoid the problem that the hinge assembly is fixed to multiple cavity walls in the accommodating cavity, resulting in a complex structure of the hinge assembly and high design cost, thus saving a certain amount of design cost. At the same time, fixing the body connector to the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity reduces the area of ​​other cavity walls occupied by the hinge assembly in the accommodating cavity, that is, reduces the fixed area occupied by the hinge assembly on the side wall, solves the problem of difficult installation and limited movement of the hinge assembly in the installation space, and improves the installation reliability.

[0009] In combination with the first aspect, in some possible implementations, the vehicle body connector includes a mounting portion and a connecting portion; one end of the mounting portion is fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity; one end of the connecting portion is fixedly connected to the other end of the mounting portion, and the other end of the connecting portion is movably connected to one end of the movable structure.

[0010] In the above technical solution, the body connector can be fixed in the accommodating cavity through the mounting portion to ensure the reliability of the body connector being fixed on the body, and the movable connection with the movable structure is realized through the connecting portion to ensure the reliability of the movable connection between the body connector and the movable structure.

[0011] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the body connector also includes a bending portion, one end of the bending portion is fixedly connected to the other end of the mounting portion, and the other end of the bending portion is connected to one end of the connecting portion, so that there is a gap between the connecting portion and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity.

[0012] In the above technical solution, there is also a gap between the movable structure connected to the other end of the connecting part and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity to provide a movable space for the movable structure, so that the movable structure can move normally relative to the vehicle body connecting part to drive the tailgate to move, thereby improving the movement reliability of the movable structure.

[0013] In combination with the first aspect and the above implementations, in some possible implementations, one end of the mounting portion is provided with a first mounting hole and a second mounting hole spaced apart from the first mounting hole in a vertical direction.

[0014] In the above technical solution, the second mounting hole and the first mounting hole are spaced apart in the vertical direction, which reduces the axial area occupied by the mounting part on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity, that is, reduces the axial area occupied by the mounting part in the installation space, and avoids the problem that the axial area occupied by the mounting part as a whole on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity is too large, resulting in the need to set the accommodating cavity larger, which in turn affects the overall layout of the vehicle.

[0015] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation manners, in some possible implementation manners, a side wall of the mounting portion away from the connecting portion abuts against a cavity wall of the accommodating cavity.

[0016] In the above technical solution, the side wall of the mounting portion away from the connecting portion can be abutted against the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity, that is, the size of the cavity bottom wall can be set equal to the size of the hinge assembly, or can be set slightly larger than the size of the hinge assembly. In this way, the size of the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity is smaller, which reduces the problem of the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity occupying too large an area on the side periphery.

[0017] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementations, in some possible implementations, the movable structure includes a first connecting rod, one end of which is rotatably connected to the body connecting member at a first hinge point, and the other end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the tailgate connecting member at a second hinge point.

[0018] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementations, in some possible implementations, the movable structure includes a second connecting rod; one end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to the body connecting member at a third hinge point, and the other end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to the tailgate connecting member at a fourth hinge point.

[0019] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the vehicle body also includes a roof cover, which is connected to the side panel, and an opening is provided on the roof cover, and the opening is located above the accommodating cavity; when the tailgate is rotated to an open position relative to the side panel, the movable structure at least partially extends out of the opening.

[0020] In the above technical solution, by providing an opening on the roof cover, the movable range of the hinge assembly is increased, thereby increasing the rotation angle of the back door relative to the vehicle body, so that the back door can be opened to a larger angle.

[0021] In combination with the first aspect and the above-mentioned implementation methods, in some possible implementation methods, the vehicle also includes a shielding assembly, one end of the shielding assembly is connected to the movable structure, and the other end of the shielding assembly is connected to the roof cover; when the tailgate is rotated to a closed position relative to the side panel, the shielding assembly covers above the opening.

[0022] In the above technical solution, by setting up a shielding component, it is possible to prevent debris from entering the accommodating cavity and affecting the normal movement of the hinge assembly, thereby ensuring the movement reliability of the hinge assembly. At the same time, by covering the opening with the shielding component, the overall aesthetics of the vehicle is improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] The technical solution in the present application will be described clearly and in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, " / " means or, for example, A / B can mean A or B: "and / or" in the text is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, in the description of the embodiments of the present application, "multiple" means two or more than two.

[0033] In the following, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as suggesting or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0034] A vehicle generally includes a vehicle body and a back door disposed on the vehicle body. In order to enable the back door to move relative to the vehicle body, a single-axis hinge structure is generally disposed in the vehicle body. One end of the single-axis hinge structure is fixedly connected to the vehicle body, and the other end of the single-axis hinge structure is fixedly connected to the back door to drive the back door to move relative to the vehicle body. However, when the single-axis hinge structure is used for driving, the opening angle of the back door is limited and cannot meet larger opening requirements (for example, a design requirement that requires a larger opening for loading and unloading goods). Moreover, when the single-axis hinge structure is used for driving, the single axis bears all the movement and force. After long-term use, the axis and its connecting parts may be worn, affecting the service life, and further affecting the rotation reliability of the back door. For this reason, in the related art, a multi-link hinge structure is used instead of a single-axis hinge structure to increase the opening angle of the back door. At the same time, the multi-link hinge structure is used to disperse the bearing movement and force to improve the service life, thereby ensuring the rotation reliability of the back door. One end of the multi-link hinge structure is fixedly connected to the vehicle body, and the other end of the multi-link hinge structure is fixedly connected to the back door. The multi-link hinge structure can drive the back door to rotate relative to the vehicle body to a closed or open position to meet different needs. However, with the development of lightweight vehicles, the installation space for installing the hinge structure in the vehicle is small, while the size of the multi-link hinge structure is large, resulting in the problem that the multi-link hinge structure is difficult to install in the installation space and has limited movement.

[0035] To this end, an embodiment of the present application provides a vehicle, wherein a receiving cavity is provided at the top of the side wall of the vehicle body, the receiving cavity provides installation space and movement space for the hinge assembly, the hinge assembly is connected to the side wall and a part of the hinge assembly is located in the receiving cavity, so that when the hinge assembly moves, it is not easy to interfere with other structures in the vehicle. Thus, the hinge assembly is reliably installed on the vehicle body and the problem of limited movement of the hinge assembly is solved.

[0036] The vehicle provided in this application is exemplarily introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle 1 provided by the present application includes a body 11 and a back door 12. A compartment 11A is formed inside the body 11. The body 11 and the back door 12 are movably connected, and the back door 12 can be rotated relative to the body 11 to an open position or a closed position to meet different needs. In order to enable the back door 12 to rotate relative to the body 11, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle 1 generally further includes a hinge assembly 13, one end of the hinge assembly 13 is connected to the tailgate 12, and the other end of the hinge assembly 13 is fixedly connected to the vehicle body 11. The hinge assembly 13 can drive the tailgate 12 to rotate relative to the vehicle body 11 to an open position, a closed position or other positions.

[0038] The installation space for installing the hinge assembly in a conventional vehicle is small, and the size of the hinge assembly is large. In order to avoid the problem that the hinge assembly is difficult to install and has limited movement in the installation space, the present application can increase the installation space for installing the hinge assembly 13 in the vehicle 1 to improve the installation reliability. In one example, Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle body 11 may include a side panel 111 and a roof cover 112 connected to the side panel 111. Here, it should be noted that, in order to present the accommodating cavity 111A and the hinge assembly 13 in the figure, only a portion of the roof cover 112 is shown, and the specific structure of the roof cover 112 is not shown. An accommodating cavity 111A is provided at the connection between the side panel 111 and the roof cover 112, that is, the accommodating cavity 111A is provided at the top of the side panel 111, a portion of the hinge assembly 13 is located in the accommodating cavity 111A and is fixedly connected to the side panel 111 to achieve a fixed connection with the vehicle body 11, and another portion of the hinge assembly 13 is located outside the accommodating cavity 111A and is fixedly connected to the tailgate 12.

[0039] The vehicle 1 in the embodiment of the present application has a receiving cavity 111A disposed on the top of the side wall 111 of the vehicle body 11. The receiving cavity 111A provides installation space and movement space for the hinge assembly 13. The hinge assembly 13 is connected to the side wall 111 and a part of the hinge assembly 13 is located in the receiving cavity 111A. In this way, when the hinge assembly 13 moves, it is not easy to interfere with other structures in the vehicle 1. In this way, the hinge assembly 13 is reliably installed on the vehicle body 11, and the problem of limited movement of the hinge assembly 13 is solved.

[0040] In order to further improve the reliability of the hinge assembly 13 when installed on the vehicle 1, in one example, Figure 3 As shown, the hinge assembly 13 may include a body connector 131, a movable structure 132, and a back door connector 133. The body connector 131 is fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, one end of the movable structure 132 is movably connected to the body connector 131, and the other end of the movable structure 132 is movably connected to the back door connector 133. The back door connector 133 is fixed to the back door 12. In this way, the hinge assembly 13 is installed and fixed to the side wall 111 through the body connector 131, and is installed and fixed to the back door 12 through the back door connector 133, and the body connector 131 is only fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, so as to avoid the problem that the hinge assembly 13 is fixed to multiple cavity wall surfaces in the accommodating cavity 111A, resulting in a complex structure of the hinge assembly 13 and a high design cost, thereby saving a certain amount of design cost. At the same time, the vehicle body connector 131 is fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, thereby reducing the area of ​​other cavity walls occupied by the hinge assembly 13 in the accommodating cavity 111A, that is, reducing the fixed area occupied by the hinge assembly 13 on the side panel 111, thereby solving the problem of difficult installation and restricted movement of the hinge assembly 13 in the installation space and improving the installation reliability.

[0041] In order to realize the movable connection between the vehicle body connecting member 131 and the movable structure 132, in one example, Figure 4 As shown, the body connector 131 may include a mounting portion 1311 and a connecting portion 1312, one end of the mounting portion 1311 is fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, one end of the connecting portion 1312 is fixedly connected to the other end of the mounting portion 1311, and the other end of the connecting portion 1312 is movably connected to one end of the movable structure 132. In this way, the body connector 131 can be fixed in the accommodating cavity 111A through the mounting portion 1311, ensuring the reliability of the body connector 131 being fixed to the body 11, and the movably connected to the movable structure 132 is achieved through the connecting portion 1312, ensuring the reliability of the movably connected body connector 131 to the movable structure 132.

[0042] In order to enable the movable structure 132 to move normally relative to the vehicle body connecting member 131 to drive the tailgate 2 to move, in one example, as Figure 5 As shown, the vehicle body connector 131 further includes a bending portion 1313, one end of the bending portion 1313 is fixedly connected to the other end of the mounting portion 1311, and the other end of the bending portion 1313 is connected to one end of the connecting portion 1312, so that there is a gap between the connecting portion 1312 and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A. In this way, there is also a gap between the movable structure 132 connected to the other end of the connecting portion 1312 and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, so as to provide a movable space for the movable structure 132, so that the movable structure 132 can move normally relative to the vehicle body connector 131, so as to drive the tailgate 2 to move, thereby improving the movement reliability of the movable structure 132.

[0043] In order to improve the firmness of the mounting portion 1311 being fixed to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, and to improve the firmness of the hinge assembly 13 being fixed to the vehicle 1, in one example, Figure 4 As shown, a first mounting hole 1311A and a second mounting hole 1311B are provided at one end of the mounting portion 1311. Here, it is worth noting that in order to avoid the mounting portion 1311 as a whole occupying too large an axial area (i.e., horizontal direction X) on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, the accommodating cavity 111A needs to be set larger, thereby affecting the overall layout of the vehicle 1. Optionally, the second mounting hole 1311B and the first mounting hole 1311A are spaced apart in the vertical direction Z, thereby reducing the axial area occupied by the mounting portion 1311 on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, that is, reducing the axial area occupied by the mounting portion 1311 in the mounting space, thereby avoiding the mounting portion 1311 as a whole occupying too large an axial area on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, thereby causing the accommodating cavity 111A to need to be set larger, thereby affecting the overall layout of the vehicle 1.

[0044] In this example, the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A is provided with a third mounting hole and a fourth mounting hole (not shown in the figure), and the positions of the third mounting hole and the fourth mounting hole correspond to the positions of the first mounting hole 1311A and the second mounting hole 1311B, respectively, and are both provided with internal threads, so as to realize the fixed connection between the first mounting hole 1311A and the third mounting hole, and the second mounting hole 1311B and the fourth mounting hole through fasteners such as bolts and screws, so that the mounting portion 1311 can be fixed to the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A. In this way, the mounting portion 1311 can be mounted on the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A by fasteners such as bolts and screws. The cost of fasteners such as bolts and screws is low, and the firmness when fixed by fasteners such as bolts and screws is high, and it is convenient to disassemble and assemble. Here, it is worth noting that the mounting portion 1311 in the present application can also be fixed in the accommodating cavity 111A by other fixing methods, and the present application does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0045] In order to further avoid the problem that the accommodating chamber 111A needs to be set larger, thereby affecting the overall layout of the vehicle 1, it is optional, such as Figure 5 As shown, the side wall of the mounting portion 1311 away from the connecting portion 1312 can be abutted against the cavity wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, that is, the size of the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A can be set equal to the size of the hinge assembly 13, or can be set slightly larger than the size of the hinge assembly 13. In this way, the size of the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A is smaller, which reduces the problem that the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A occupies too large an area in the side enclosure 111, thereby affecting the overall layout of the vehicle 1.

[0046] Here, it is worth mentioning that in order to ensure that the hinge assembly 13 can move normally in the accommodating cavity 111A to drive the tailgate 12 to rotate relative to the vehicle body 11, the cavity size of the accommodating cavity 111A needs to be set to meet the movement of the hinge assembly 13. The specific design size and structure of the accommodating cavity 111A can be designed according to the vehicle model, the required rotation angle of the tailgate 12 and actual needs. This application does not make any specific restrictions on this.

[0047] In one example, if Figure 5As shown, the movable structure 132 may include a first link 1321 and a second link 1322, one end of the first link 1321 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body connection member 131 at a first hinge point A, the other end of the first link 1321 is rotatably connected to the back door connection member 133 at a second hinge point B, one end of the second link 1322 is connected to the vehicle body connection member 131 at a third hinge point C, and the other end of the second link 1322 is rotatably connected to the back door connection member 133 at a fourth hinge point D. The first link 1321 and the second link 1322 in the movable structure 132 are rotatably connected to the vehicle body connection member 131, respectively, so that the movable structure 132 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 11 through the vehicle body connection member 131, and the first link 1321 and the second link 1322 in the movable structure 132 are rotatably connected to the back door connection member 133, so that the movable structure 132 is rotatably connected to the back door 12 through the back door connection member 133. The movable structure 132 can be rotated through the first connecting rod 1321 and the second connecting rod 1322 to change the position of the tailgate 12. That is, when the tailgate 12 needs to be rotated relative to the vehicle body 11, the first connecting rod 1321 rotates around the first hinge point A and the second hinge point B, and the second connecting rod 1322 rotates around the third hinge point C and the fourth hinge point D, so that the tailgate 12 can be rotated relative to the vehicle body 11 to an open position, a closed position or other positions.

[0048] Optionally, the first connecting rod 1321 and the second connecting rod 1322 may be connecting rods that are smaller in size and lighter in weight. The first connecting rod 1321 and the second connecting rod 1322 may also be other connecting structures, and the present application does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0049] In order to realize the connection between the first connecting rod 1321 and the back door connecting member 133 and the body connecting member 131, optionally, the other end of the connecting portion 1312 in the body connecting member 131 may be provided with a first connecting hole (not shown in the figure) and a second connecting hole (not shown in the figure) spaced apart from the first connecting hole, the first end of the movable structure 132 (i.e. one end of the first connecting rod 1321) is connected to the first connecting hole at the first hinge point A, and the second end of the movable structure 132 (i.e. the back door connecting member 133) is connected to the second connecting hole at the fourth hinge point D. In this way, the connection between the first connecting rod 1321 and the back door connecting member 133 and the body connecting member 131 is realized, and the strength of the installation point (i.e. the hinge point) of the first connecting rod 1321 and the back door connecting member 133 is increased through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole, thereby ensuring the installation strength of the hinge assembly 13 as a whole and the body.

[0050] Optionally, in order to reduce the manufacturing process, the connection part 1312 can be set as a planar structure as a whole, that is, the first connection hole and the second connection hole are arranged on the same plane at intervals. The connection part 1312 can also adopt other structures, and this application does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0051] Here, it is worth noting that the movable structure 132 may also include other connecting parts, and this application does not make any specific limitation on this.

[0052] In order to increase the movable range of the hinge assembly 13, thereby increasing the rotation angle of the back door 12 relative to the vehicle body 11, in one example, Figure 6 As shown, an opening 112A is provided on the roof cover 112, and the opening 112A is located above the accommodating cavity 111A. When the tailgate 12 is rotated to an open position relative to the side panel 111, the movable structure 132 at least partially extends out of the opening 112A, thereby increasing the movable range of the hinge assembly 13, thereby increasing the rotation angle of the tailgate 12 relative to the vehicle body 11, so that the tailgate 12 can be opened to a larger angle.

[0053] In this example, when the back door 12 rotates to the closed position relative to the vehicle body 11, the opening 112A on the roof cover 112 is not blocked, which may cause debris to enter the accommodating cavity 111A, affecting the normal movement of the hinge assembly 13. Figure 7 As shown, the vehicle 1 may further include a shielding assembly 14, one end of which is connected to the movable structure 132, and the other end of the shielding assembly 14 is connected to the roof cover 112. When the tailgate 12 is rotated to a closed position relative to the side panel 111, the shielding assembly 14 will cover the opening 112A to prevent debris from entering the accommodating cavity 111A and affecting the normal movement of the hinge assembly 13, thereby ensuring the movement reliability of the hinge assembly 13. At the same time, by covering the opening 112A with the shielding assembly 14, the overall aesthetics of the vehicle 1 is improved.

[0054] Optional, such as Figure 7As shown, the shielding assembly 14 may include a slide rail 141, a sliding member 142 and a connecting rod 143. The slide rail 141 is fixed to the roof cover 112 and is arranged adjacent to the opening 112A. One end of the sliding member 142 is slidably connected to the slide rail 141, one end of the connecting rod 143 is connected to the sliding member 142, and the other end of the connecting rod 143 is connected to the movable structure 132. When the hinge assembly 13 drives the tailgate 12 to rotate relative to the side panel 111, the connecting rod 143 also drives the sliding member 142 to slide relative to the sliding rail 141. For example, when the tailgate 12 rotates to an open position relative to the vehicle body 11, the sliding member 142 will move away from the opening 112A to allow the hinge assembly 13 to move normally. When the tailgate 12 rotates to an open position, the sliding member 142 is completely disengaged from the opening 112A. When the tailgate 12 rotates to a closed position relative to the vehicle body 11, the sliding member 142 will approach the opening 112A. When the tailgate 12 rotates to a closed position, the sliding member 142 completely covers the opening 112A. In this way, when the hinge assembly 13 moves, it will also drive the sliding member 142 to move to cover the opening 112A. There is no need to set up an additional driving member to drive the shielding assembly 14, which saves a certain amount of production cost. The shielding assembly 14 will achieve shielding or moving away based on the movement state of the hinge assembly 13, avoiding the problem of accidental shielding by the shielding assembly 14 and thus affecting the normal use of the hinge assembly 13, thereby ensuring the reliability of the use of the shielding assembly 14.

[0055] The shielding component 14 may also adopt an open-door baffle structure, or other structures that can achieve the above functions, and this application does not make any specific restrictions on this.

[0056] In summary, the accommodating cavity 111A for accommodating the hinge assembly 13 is added to the side wall 111 of the vehicle 1, thereby increasing the installation space of the vehicle. At the same time, the body connector 131 is fixedly arranged on the side wall 111, thereby reducing the fixed area occupied by the hinge structure 13 in the vehicle 1, so as to improve the installation reliability of the hinge assembly 13 installed on the vehicle 1. Moreover, the hinge assembly 13 is partially fixed on the cavity bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 111A, thereby avoiding the problem that the hinge assembly 13 is fixed on multiple cavity wall surfaces in the accommodating cavity 111A, which leads to a complex structure of the hinge assembly 13 and a high design cost, thus saving a certain amount of design cost. At the same time, the area of ​​other cavity walls occupied by the hinge assembly 13 in the accommodating cavity 111A is reduced, that is, the fixed area occupied by the hinge assembly 13 on the side wall 111 is reduced, thereby solving the problem that the hinge assembly 13 is difficult to install and has limited movement in the installation space, thereby improving the installation reliability.
