[0024] The following describes the implementation manners of the present utility model through specific examples. Those skilled in the art can easily understand the other advantages and effects of the present utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. The present utility model can also be implemented or applied through different specific implementation manners. Various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.

[0025] The following will further elaborate on the present utility model in conjunction with the attached Figure 1-6 drawings.

[0026] An embodiment of the present utility model discloses a column integrated air outlet structure.

[0027] Referring to Figure 1 - Figure 6 , a column integrated air outlet structure includes an air outlet assembly, an air duct, and a B-pillar body. The air outlet assembly is arranged on the B-pillar body, the air outlet assembly communicates with the air duct, and the air duct is arranged on the B-pillar body. By integrating the air outlet structure on the B-pillar body, the air-conditioning air flow can be directly delivered to the rear passengers, making the whole vehicle temperature control more balanced. At the same time, it helps to optimize the air circulation in the vehicle, reduce the air flow dead corners, and thus improve the riding comfort.

[0028] The air outlet assembly is assembled forwardly on the air duct. The air outlet assembly is an important part of the vehicle air-conditioning system, mainly including components such as an air outlet housing, a damper, and a damper gear transmission mechanism. The existing technologies are adopted and will not be elaborated one by one here. The air outlet assembly is responsible for adjusting and controlling the air flow direction and flow rate in the vehicle, providing a comfortable riding environment for passengers.

[0029] In this embodiment, the air outlet assembly is provided with a limiting block, and the limiting block is clamped on the B-pillar body. Specifically, the limiting block is a clip. The air outlet assembly is clamped on the B-pillar body through the limiting block, so that the air outlet assembly and the B-pillar body are connected to each other. The clamping method is convenient for installation, saves time and labor, is economical and practical, reduces the production cost and installation difficulty, has a firm installation, and a good anti-vibration effect.

[0030] In this embodiment, the air outlet assembly is provided with a limiting portion for performing X-direction limiting on the B-pillar body. The limiting portion is integrally formed on the air outlet assembly and has a groove. During installation, the groove abuts against the B-pillar body to form X-direction limiting on the B-pillar body, making the installation between the air outlet assembly and the B-pillar body firm, having a good anti-vibration effect, and effectively preventing the B-pillar body from displacing relative to the air outlet assembly in the X direction.

[0031] The air duct is a pipeline system for air delivery and distribution inside the vehicle, which plays a key role in the vehicle air-conditioning system. The air duct is responsible for delivering the cold and hot air generated by the air conditioner to all corners inside the vehicle, participating in the air exchange and purification process inside the vehicle, providing a comfortable riding environment for the passengers, and helping to reduce the fatigue intensity of the driver and improve the driving safety.

[0032] In an embodiment, positioning posts are provided on the B-pillar body, and positioning holes are formed in the air duct. The positioning holes are clamped with the positioning posts, and the air duct relies on the matching of the positioning holes with the positioning posts of the B-pillar body, which is more convenient for positioning and more convenient for installation.

[0033] Installation holes are formed in the air duct, and the B-pillar body has BOSS posts. Connectors are provided on the installation holes, and the connectors are fixedly connected to the BOSS posts through the installation holes. There are multiple BOSS posts. Specifically, there are five BOSS posts. The connectors are screws, and the air duct installation holes are screwed and fastened to the BOSS posts on the B-pillar body through the screws, further strengthening the connection stability between the two.

[0034] A sealing strip is provided on one side of the air outlet assembly close to the air duct. A sealing strip is pasted in a circle at the connection end of the air outlet assembly. An elastic member is provided on one side of the air duct close to the air outlet assembly. During installation, the elastic member is used to fill the gap between the air duct and the sealing strip. Specifically, the elastic member is a sponge strip, and sponge strips are pasted at both ends of the air duct to make the sponge strips in close contact with the air duct sealing strip, ensuring the air circulation efficiency, preventing air leakage, and improving the sealing performance.

[0035] A heat insulation layer is provided on one side of the air duct close to the B-pillar body. The heat insulation layer is a sponge layer, and the sponge layer is pasted close to the B-pillar body side for heat insulation, preventing heat loss during the transportation of hot and cold air, and at the same time absorbing the noise generated by the airflow inside the air duct, playing a role in noise reduction.

[0036] The present utility model improves the comfort of the indoor environment. Through the integrated air outlet structure, air-conditioning air can be directly conveyed to the rear passengers, making the whole vehicle temperature control more balanced. At the same time, it helps to optimize the air circulation inside the vehicle, reduce the airflow dead corners, thereby improving the riding comfort and increasing the comfort of the rear passengers.

[0037] In this article, specific examples are used to elaborate on the principle and implementation mode of the present utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and its core idea of the present utility model. The above is only the preferred implementation mode of the present utility model. It should be noted that due to the limited nature of the written expression, and objectively there are infinite specific structures. For those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements, retouches or changes can be made, or the above technical features can be combined in an appropriate manner; these improvements, retouches, changes or combinations, or directly applying the concept and technical solution of the utility model to other occasions without improvement, should all be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
