Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle parts, and particularly to an anti-collision outer water cut structure, a door assembly and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] When the vehicle pulls over and stops, the passengers and drivers in the vehicle need to open the door to get off. If the passengers and drivers open the door directly and ignore the conditions behind the vehicle, it is easy to cause the vehicles, electric bicycles, etc. coming from behind to collide with the opened door or the passengers and drivers getting off the vehicle because they have no time to avoid, resulting in serious personal injuries and property losses. Moreover, with the development of smart phones, electric bicycle drivers sometimes check their phones or reply to messages during driving, thus not observing the road conditions ahead in time, which further leads to the occurrence of such accidents. In addition, with the development of the takeaway industry, the number of takeaway deliverymen and the speed of takeaway electric bicycles have both increased significantly. The takeaway deliverymen drive the electric bicycles very fast and frequently check their phones, resulting in inattentive driving, which is also one of the important reasons for the frequent occurrence of such accidents. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The problem solved by the utility model is: when the passengers and drivers open the door to get off, how to reduce the probability of collision between the vehicle coming from behind and the opened door or the passengers and drivers getting off the vehicle.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the utility model provides an anti-collision outer water cut structure, a door assembly and a vehicle.

[0005] In a first aspect, the utility model provides an anti-collision outer water cut structure, including an outer water cut assembly and a ranging sensor.

The ranging sensor is arranged at one end of the outer water cut body facing the rear of the vehicle. The outer water cut bright strip covers the outside of the outer water cut body, and the detection end of the ranging sensor is exposed at one end of the outer water cut bright strip facing the rear of the vehicle.

[0007] Optionally, a connecting corner is provided at one end of the outer water cut body facing the rear of the vehicle, and the ranging sensor is injection molded on the connecting corner.

[0008] Optionally, a through hole is provided at one end of the outer water cut bright strip facing the rear of the vehicle, and the detection end of the ranging sensor extends out of the outer water cut body and is inserted into the through hole.

[0009] Optionally, the end face of the detection end of the ranging sensor is flush with the end face of the end of the outer water cut bright strip where the through hole is provided.

[0010] Optionally, the ranging sensor is an ultrasonic ranging sensor or an electromagnetic wave ranging sensor.

[0011] Optionally, the ranging sensor is a millimeter wave radar.

[0012] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a vehicle door assembly, including a vehicle door body, a vehicle door hinge, and the anti-collision outer water cut structure as described above. The anti-collision outer water cut structure is arranged on the vehicle door body, and the vehicle door body is used to be rotatably connected to the vehicle body frame through the vehicle door hinge.

[0013] Optionally, a damping limiter is provided on the vehicle door hinge, and the damping limiter is used to limit the opening angle of the vehicle door.

The relevant definitions of other terms will be given in the following description. It should be noted that the concepts such as "first" and "second" mentioned in the present utility model are only used to distinguish different devices, modules, or units, and are not used to limit the order or interdependence relationship of the functions performed by these devices, modules, or units.

[0024] It should be noted that the modification of "one" and "multiple" mentioned in the present utility model is illustrative rather than restrictive. Those skilled in the art should understand that unless otherwise clearly specified in the context, it should be understood as "one or more".

[0025] In the related art, due to structural limitations, there is no radar or other sensors on the traditional outer water deflector, making it impossible to detect the situation behind the vehicle. Considering that when the car door is opened, the end of the outer water deflector will first be exposed outside the vehicle body, a millimeter-wave radar is added to the end of the outer water deflector to detect the situation behind the vehicle.

[0026] Combined with Figure 1 As shown, an anti-collision outer water deflector structure provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes an outer water deflector assembly 1 and a ranging sensor 2. The ranging sensor 2 is disposed within the outer water deflector assembly 1, and the detection end of the ranging sensor 2 is exposed at one end of the outer water deflector assembly 1 facing the rear of the vehicle for detecting the road conditions behind the vehicle door.

[0027] It should be noted that the rear direction of the vehicle is Figure 1 the reverse direction of the X-axis in Figure 1 and correspondingly, the front direction of the vehicle is

[0028] It should also be noted that the anti-collision outer water deflector structure in this embodiment can be applied to both the front door and the rear door of the vehicle. That is to say, Figure 1 the door sheet metal 300 in Figure 1 can be either the front door sheet metal or the rear door sheet metal. For example,

[0029] Specifically, the outer water deflector assembly 1 is usually a long strip structure, which is usually disposed on the door sheet metal 300 along the front-rear direction (i.e., Figure 1 the X-axis direction in Figure 1At one end in the reverse direction of the X-axis), moreover, the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 (i.e., the detection part of the distance measuring sensor 2) is exposed at the rear end of the outer water cut assembly 1. That is to say, the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 can be seen at the rear end of the outer water cut assembly 1. Herein, the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 being exposed at the rear end of the outer water cut assembly 1 can be understood as the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 extending outside the outer water cut assembly 1, or it can be understood that there is an opening at the rear end of the outer water cut assembly 1, and the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 is exposed at the opening, so that the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 can be seen at the opening. In practical applications, it can be designed according to needs, and no specific limitation is made here. The distance measuring sensor 2 uses the distance measuring principle to detect the road conditions behind the vehicle door and sends the detection result to the controller, facilitating the controller to control the opening speed of the vehicle door according to the detection result. For example, if the distance measuring sensor 2 detects that there is a car, electric vehicle, etc. approaching behind the vehicle door when the vehicle door is opened, the controller can determine that there is a collision risk and control, for example, the damping limiter 410 at the vehicle door hinge 400 to instantaneously increase the opening torque to quickly reduce the opening speed, so that the opening angle of the vehicle door is controlled within a smaller range to prevent a vehicle such as a car or an electric vehicle approaching from the rear from colliding with the vehicle door or the person getting off the vehicle. When a vehicle such as a car or an electric vehicle behind the vehicle door has passed by the vehicle door, the controller determines that there is no collision risk and controls, for example, the damping limiter 410 at the vehicle door hinge 400 to gradually reduce the opening torque so that the vehicle door can be opened normally.

[0030] In this embodiment, the anti-collision outer water cut structure can be realized by arranging the distance measuring sensor 2 inside the outer water cut assembly 1 and exposing the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 at one end of the outer water cut assembly 1 facing the rear of the vehicle, so that the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 can be first exposed to the outside of the vehicle body when the driver or passenger opens the vehicle door, facilitating the use of the distance measuring sensor 2 to detect the road conditions behind the vehicle door and sending the detection result to, for example, the controller. In this way, when the distance measuring sensor 2 detects that there is a car, electric vehicle, etc. approaching behind the vehicle door, the detection result of the distance measuring sensor 2 can be sent to, for example, the controller to use the controller to control the opening angle of the vehicle door, so that the opening angle of the vehicle door is controlled within a smaller range, thereby preventing a vehicle such as a car or an electric vehicle approaching from the rear from colliding with the vehicle door or the person getting off the vehicle, and further greatly reducing the probability of accidents, effectively guaranteeing the safety of the driver, passengers and pedestrians, and at the same time reducing property losses.

[0031] Optionally, as shown in Figure 2 the outer water cut assembly 1 includes an outer water cut body 11 and an outer water cut bright strip 12. The distance measuring sensor 2 is embedded at one end of the outer water cut body 11 facing the rear of the vehicle. The outer water cut bright strip 12 covers the outside of the outer water cut body 11, and the detection end of the distance measuring sensor 2 is exposed at one end of the outer water cut bright strip 12 facing the rear of the vehicle.

[0032] In this alternative embodiment, the outer water deflector body 11 is generally a sealing strip structure extending in the front-rear direction, and the outer water deflector bright strip 12 covers the outer water deflector body 11, which can not only protect the outer water deflector body 11, but also play a decorative role and improve the aesthetics of the vehicle appearance. The ranging sensor 2 is generally embedded at the rear end of the outer water deflector body 11. Among them, the ranging sensor 2 can be completely embedded at the rear end of the outer water deflector body 11, and the end face of the detection end of the ranging sensor 2 is exposed at the rear end face of the outer water deflector body 11 and the rear end opening of the outer water deflector bright strip 12. It is also possible that a part of the ranging sensor 2 is embedded at the rear end of the outer water deflector body 11, and the other part extends outside the rear end of the outer water deflector body 11. At this time, the part of the ranging sensor 2 extending outside the outer water deflector body 11 can be exposed at the rear end opening of the outer water deflector bright strip 12, can also be inserted into the opening, or can pass through the opening and extend outside the outer water deflector bright strip 12, and no specific limitation is made here. In this way, by embedding the ranging sensor 2 at the rear end of the outer water deflector body 11, it is not only convenient for layout, but also can reduce the occupied space of the ranging sensor 2 in the left-right direction (i.e., Figure 1 the Y-axis direction in

[0033] the middle), making the overall structure of the outer water deflector assembly 1 more compact. Figure 2 Optionally, as shown in

[0034]

[0035] Figure 2

[0036] shown, a connecting corner 112 is provided at one end of the outer water deflector body 11 facing the rear of the vehicle, and the ranging sensor 2 is injection-molded on the connecting corner 112.

[0036] In this alternative embodiment, the outer water cut strip 12 is generally provided with a receiving groove for receiving the outer water cut body 11. The receiving groove has a front end groove wall, side end groove walls, and a rear end groove wall. A through hole 121 is generally provided through the rear end groove wall of the receiving groove. One end of the ranging sensor 2 is embedded in the joint 112 of the outer water cut body 11, and the other end (i.e., the detection end of the ranging sensor 2) extends outside the outer water cut body 11 and is inserted into the through hole 121. Moreover, the shape and size of the through hole 121 are adapted to the ranging sensor 2. For example, if the ranging sensor 2 has a cylindrical structure, the through hole 121 is a circular hole, and the diameter of the circular hole is equal to or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the ranging sensor 2. Another example is that if the ranging sensor 2 has a rectangular block structure, the through hole 121 is a rectangular hole, and the size of the rectangular hole is comparable to the size of the ranging sensor 2. In this way, by providing the through hole 121 at the rear end of the outer water cut strip 12 and inserting the part of the ranging sensor 2 that extends outside the outer water cut body 11 into the through hole 121, it is convenient to use the plug-in fit of the ranging sensor 2 and the through hole 121 to install and position the outer water cut strip 12, thereby improving the convenience of assembly.

[0037] Optionally, as shown in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the end face of the detection end of the ranging sensor 2 is flush with the end face of the end of the outer water cut strip 12 where the through hole 121 is provided. With this setting, the detection end of the ranging sensor 2 will not protrude from the through hole 121 to the outside of the outer water cut strip 12, so that while using the plug-in fit of the ranging sensor 2 and the through hole 121 to achieve installation and positioning, it is possible to avoid the ranging sensor 2 protruding to the outside of the outer water cut strip 12 and interfering with the surrounding structures, thereby ensuring that the ranging sensor 2 can work properly.

[0038] Optionally, the ranging sensor 2 is an ultrasonic ranging sensor or an electromagnetic wave ranging sensor. Since both ultrasonic ranging sensors and electromagnetic wave ranging sensors have the advantages of accurate positioning, small size, low power consumption, and strong anti-interference ability, in this embodiment, using an ultrasonic ranging sensor or an electromagnetic wave ranging sensor as the ranging sensor 2 can reduce the occupancy of space and make the overall structure of the outer water cut assembly 1 more compact.

[0039] Optionally, the ranging sensor 2 is a millimeter wave radar. Since the millimeter wave radar has the characteristics of small size, light weight, and high spatial resolution, using the millimeter wave radar as the ranging sensor 2 can further reduce its occupancy of space, thereby further making the overall structure of the outer water cut assembly 1 more compact; moreover, the millimeter wave radar has strong ability to penetrate fog, smoke, and dust, and can accurately detect the road conditions behind the vehicle door in a dusty environment, with a wider range of applications.

[0040] As shown in combination with Figure 1As shown in the figure, a door assembly provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a door sheet metal 300, a door hinge 400, and the anti-collision outer water cut structure as described above. The anti-collision outer water cut structure is arranged on the door sheet metal 300, and the door sheet metal 300 is used to be rotatably connected to the vehicle body frame through the door hinge 400.

[0041] In this embodiment, the anti-collision outer water cut structure is usually arranged at the window of the door sheet metal 300, the door hinge 400 is usually arranged at the front end of the door sheet metal 300, and the door sheet metal 300 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body frame through the door hinge 400. In addition, the beneficial effects of the door assembly in this embodiment compared with the prior art are the same as those of the above anti-collision outer water cut structure, and will not be elaborated here.

[0042] Optionally, as shown in the figure Figure 3 A damping limiter 410 is provided on the door hinge 400, and the damping limiter 410 is used to limit the opening angle of the door sheet metal 300.

[0043] In this optional embodiment, the door hinge 400 usually includes an upper hinge and a lower hinge, and the damping limiter 410 is arranged on the upper hinge and / or the lower hinge. Moreover, the damping limiter 410 is usually used in cooperation with the distance measuring sensor 2 of the anti-collision outer water cut structure. When the distance measuring sensor 2 detects that there are vehicles such as cars and battery cars coming behind the door when the door is opened, the detection result of the distance measuring sensor 2 can be sent to the controller. At this time, the controller judges that there is a collision risk according to the detection result of the distance measuring sensor 2, and thus controls the damping limiter 410 at the door hinge 400 to instantaneously increase the opening torque, so as to quickly reduce the opening speed of the door, and control the opening angle of the door within a smaller range, preventing vehicles such as cars and battery cars coming from behind from colliding with the door or the people getting off the car. When vehicles such as cars and battery cars behind the door have passed by the door, the distance measuring sensor 2 detects that there are no cars and battery cars coming behind the door. At this time, the controller judges that there is no collision risk according to the detection result of the distance measuring sensor 2, and controls the damping limiter 410 at the door hinge 400 to gradually reduce the opening torque, so that the door can be opened normally. In this way, the opening angle of the door sheet metal 300 is limited by the damping limiter 410, thereby reducing the occurrence of collision accidents.

[0044] A vehicle provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes the anti-collision outer water cut structure as described above, or includes the door assembly as described above.

[0045] The beneficial effects of the vehicle in this embodiment compared with the prior art are the same as those of the above anti-collision outer water cut structure, and will not be elaborated here.

[0046] Although the present utility model is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications, and these changes and modifications will all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
