[0041] Based on the problem pointed out in the background technology that the existing adjustable nuts may fall off due to exceeding the designed adjustment amount, the utility model provides an adjustable nut assembly and a vehicle including the adjustable nut assembly, aiming to provide a first limiting structure on the adjustable nut so that when the adjustable nut is rotated to the designed adjustment amount, the first limiting structure can prevent the taillight from continuing to move, thereby avoiding the risk of falling off due to insufficient overlap between the adjustable nut and the taillight.
[0042] Specifically, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides a vehicle, which includes a housing 1 , a tail light 2 and an adjustable nut assembly 3 , wherein the adjustable nut assembly 3 is used to adjust the installation position of the tail light 2 .
[0043] Among them, the adjustable nut assembly includes an adjustable nut 3 and a fixed member 4, the first end of the fixed member 4 is fixedly connected to the fixed base (i.e., the shell 1), the adjustable nut 3 is sleeved on the fixed member 4 and is restricted between the shell 1 and the second end of the fixed member 4, the adjustable nut 3 is threadedly connected to the tail light 2, the adjustable nut 3 can be rotated relative to the fixed member 4 to move the tail light 2 along a first direction, the first direction is the length direction of the fixed member 4, wherein a first limiting structure is provided on the adjustable nut 3, and the first limiting structure can prevent the tail light 2 from moving in a direction away from the first end of the fixed member 4.
[0044] For example, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a threaded hole 21 is provided on the taillight 2 of the utility model, and an adjustable nut 3 is installed in the threaded hole 21 to realize a threaded connection with the taillight 2. The fixing member 4 of the adjustable nut assembly is fixedly connected to the shell 1. The adjustable nut 3 can drive the taillight 2 to move toward or away from the shell 1, thereby adjusting the position of the taillight 2 so that the taillight 2 can be accurately installed on the shell 1.
[0045] Specifically, Figure 1 Taking the perspective of as an example, the front end of the fixing member 4 is fixedly connected to the shell 1, the adjustable nut 3 is sleeved on the fixing member 4 and is restricted between the shell 1 and the rear end of the fixing member 4, the adjustable nut 3 is threadedly connected to the tail light 2, the adjustable nut 3 can rotate relative to the fixing member 4, so that the tail light 2 moves in the front and rear directions, and a first limiting structure is provided on the adjustable nut 3, which can prevent the tail light 2 from moving in the direction away from the front end of the fixing member.
[0046] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the setting position of the first limiting structure. For example, a person skilled in the art may set the first limiting structure alone at one end of the adjustable nut 3 close to or away from the shell 1, or may also set the first limiting structure at the same time at one end of the adjustable nut 3 close to or away from the shell 1, and so on. Such adjustment and change of the specific setting position of the first limiting structure does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention, and shall be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0047] Preferably, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first limiting structure of the utility model is arranged at an end of the adjustable nut 3 away from the first end of the fixing member 4 .
[0048] For example, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first limiting structure of the utility model is arranged at the front end of the adjustable nut 3, that is, the end of the adjustable nut 3 away from the shell 1. Through such an arrangement, when the tail light 2 moves in the direction away from the shell 1, when the designed adjustment amount of the adjustable nut 3 is reached, the first limiting structure can block the movement of the tail light 2, thereby preventing the adjustable nut 3 and the tail light 2 from falling off.
[0049] Preferably, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first limiting structure of the utility model extends along the radial direction of the adjustable nut 3 toward a direction away from the center of the adjustable nut 3.
[0050] That is to say, the first limiting structure extends toward the outside of the adjustable nut 3 , so as to more effectively block the movement of the tail light 2 .
[0051] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the structural form of the first limiting structure. For example, a person skilled in the art may set the first limiting structure to a limiting baffle, a limiting ring or a limiting column, etc. Such adjustment and change to the specific structural form of the first limiting structure does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0053] By setting the first limiting structure as the limiting blocking piece 31, the structure is simple, the processing is convenient, and the cost is saved.
[0054] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the number of limit baffles 31. For example, those skilled in the art may set the limit baffles 31 to two, three or four, etc., which are distributed at circumferential intervals along the adjustable nut 3. Such adjustment and change to the specific number of limit baffles 31 does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0055] Preferably, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the number of the limiting baffles 31 of the present invention is multiple, and the multiple limiting baffles 31 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the adjustable nut 3.
[0056] For example, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the number of the limiting baffles 31 of the present invention is two, and the two limiting baffles 31 are symmetrically arranged along the circumference of the adjustable nut 3 .
[0057] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, an engaging structure is provided on the inner side wall of the adjustable nut 3 of the utility model, and the engaging structure can engage with the adjusting tool of the adjustable nut 3 so that the adjusting tool drives the adjustable nut 3 to rotate.
[0058] By providing an engaging structure that can engage with the adjusting tool of the adjustable nut 3 on the inner side wall of the adjustable nut 3, the adjusting tool of the adjustable nut 3 can more easily rotate the adjustable nut 3, thereby facilitating the installation and adjustment of the adjustable nut assembly.
[0059] Preferably, if Figure 2 As shown, the meshing structure of the utility model includes a plurality of strip grooves 32 formed on the inner side wall of the adjustable nut 3 , the plurality of strip grooves 32 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the inner side wall of the adjustable nut 3 , and the strip grooves 32 extend along the axial direction of the adjustable nut 3 .

When an adjusting tool (such as a rectangular wrench, etc.) is inserted into the inner wall of the adjustable nut 3, the adjusting tool can mesh with the four strip grooves 32, so that when the adjusting tool is rotated, the adjustable nut 3 can be driven to rotate more easily.
[0061] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the form of the fixing component. For example, a person skilled in the art may set the fixing component as a fixing column or a fixing screw, etc. Such adjustment and change to the specific form of the fixing component does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0062] Preferably, if Figure 1 As shown, the fixing member 4 of the present invention is a screw rod, a first end of the screw rod is threadedly connected to the housing 1 , a second end of the screw rod is a nut, and the adjustable nut 3 is restricted between the housing 1 and the nut.
[0063] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the rear end of the screw of the utility model is threadedly connected to the housing 1, the front end of the screw is a nut, and the adjustable nut 3 is restricted between the housing 1 and the nut and can rotate relative to the screw.
[0064] Specifically, the taillights 2 of the vehicle are the side taillights and the tailgate taillights. After the side taillights are installed, in order to ensure the flatness between the tailgate taillights and the side taillights, it is necessary to continuously adjust the position of the tailgate taillights to reduce the surface difference between the tailgate taillights and the side taillights. The screw is fixedly installed on the tailgate, and a threaded hole 21 is provided on the tailgate taillight. The adjustable nut 3 is installed in the threaded hole 21. By rotating the adjustable nut 3, the tailgate taillight can be driven to move in a direction close to or away from the tailgate, so that the surface difference between the tailgate taillight and the side taillight can be accurately adjusted, thereby ensuring the flatness between the tailgate taillight and the side taillight and ensuring the decorative effect of the taillight 2.
[0065] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the connection method between the screw and the housing 1. For example, those skilled in the art may connect the screw and the housing 1 by screwing or welding. Such adjustment and change of the specific connection method between the screw and the housing 1 does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0067] For example, Figure 1 As shown, a mounting hole 11 is provided on the housing 1 of the utility model, and the rivet nut 5 is installed in the mounting hole 11, and the front end of the rivet nut 5 is exposed outside the mounting hole 11, and the front end of the screw is inserted into the rivet nut 5. The screw and the rivet nut 5 are threadedly connected to fix the adjustable nut assembly to the housing 1, and the adjustable nut 3 is restricted between the front end of the rivet nut 5 and the nut.
[0068] Preferably, if Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the first side surface of the tail light 2 of the present invention is provided with a second limiting structure, and the second limiting structure protrudes from the first side surface along a first direction. The first side surface is a side surface of the tail light 2 close to the housing 1 .
[0069] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a protruding second limiting structure is provided on the front side surface of the taillight 2 of the utility model. When the taillight 2 moves toward the shell 1, when the designed adjustment amount of the adjustable nut 3 is reached, the second limiting structure just abuts against the shell 1, thereby avoiding the risk of falling off due to insufficient overlap between the adjustable nut 3 and the mating part.
[0070] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the structural form of the second limiting structure. For example, a person skilled in the art may set the second limiting structure to a limiting block, a limiting column or a limiting ring, etc. Such adjustment and change to the specific structural form of the second limiting structure does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0072] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, four limiting blocks 22 are arranged on the front side of the taillight 2 of the present invention, and the four limiting blocks 22 are arranged around the threaded hole 21 .
[0073] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the number of limit blocks 22. For example, those skilled in the art may also set the number of limit blocks 22 to 3 or 5, etc. Such adjustment and change to the specific number of limit blocks 22 does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.
