Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile manufacturing, in particular to an arc-shaped upper guard plate of an automobile A-pillar. Background Technique
[0002] The upper guard plate of the automobile A-pillar is one of the main decorations inside the automobile. It not only plays a role in beautifying the interior of the automobile, but also plays a key role in the field of vision of the driver during the driving of the automobile.
[0003] The authorized announcement number is CN211076071U, which discloses an arc-shaped upper guard plate of an automobile A-pillar. In the manufacturing process of this patented technology, composite materials are used, which have good flexibility in general environments, and arc-shaped edges are provided at its joints. There are good gaps with other decorative parts and remain in a relatively fixed position with the fixing frame. When the door rotates without a buckle on one side of the door, the upper guard plate of the A-pillar will not become loose; in terms of the overall effect, the cross-sectional area of the upper guard plate of the A-pillar is reduced; however, in this solution, when strengthening the overall guard plate, only composite materials are used for installation. The single clamping method cannot ensure the overall stability of the A-pillar, and its shock absorption, sound insulation and heat insulation capabilities are also weak. Traditional reinforcing ribs generally use I-beams for reinforcement, but the contact surface between the I-beam and the corrugated cross-section is too small to completely conduct the pressure received, resulting in a large gap between the actual strengthening effect and the theoretical strengthening effect, which leads to the easy fracture of the A-pillar. Therefore, an arc-shaped upper guard plate of an automobile A-pillar is needed to improve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0026] Embodiment: Please refer to Figures 1-4 an arc-shaped upper A-pillar guard plate of an automobile shown in the figure, which includes a main body 1, a rectangular truss assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the side of the main body 1, and a connection assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the side of the rectangular truss assembly 2;
[0027] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, the main body 1 includes a housing 101. A inner housing 102 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the housing 101. A sponge rubber pad 107 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the inner housing 102. The rectangular truss assembly 2 includes a connecting rod 201. A horizontal round bar 202 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting rod 201. A vertical round bar 203 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 201. An inclined round bar 204 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting rod 201. The connecting component 3 includes a supporting plate 301. An expansion joint bolt rod 302 is arranged inside the supporting plate 301. A nut 303 is arranged at the bottom of the expansion joint bolt rod 302. The rectangular truss assembly 2 formed by welding the connecting rod 201, the horizontal round bar 202, the vertical round bar 203 and the inclined round bar 204 has a certain triangular plane space structure, which is easy to meet the requirements of standardized and industrialized production, increases the in-plane mechanical properties of the A-pillar guard plate, improves the out-of-plane stiffness, and can improve the integrity of the overall vehicle structure. Moreover, the equal-ratio structural requirements not only have aesthetics, but also can give full play to the material strength.
[0028] Among them, four connecting rods 201 are provided, and the four connecting rods 201 have the same specifications. A number of horizontal round bars 202, vertical round bars 203 and inclined round bars 204 are provided. A number of supporting plates 301, expansion joint bolt rods 302 and nuts 303 are provided. The expansion joint bolt rod 302 penetrates through the supporting plate 301, and the expansion joint bolt rod 302 is used in cooperation with the nut 303. Fixing the inner housing 102 and the rectangular truss assembly 2 as a whole by using the expansion joint bolt rod 302 and the nut 303 can prevent the weld from cracking caused by impact at the welding place.
