The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0019] The first embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , wherein, Figure 1 is the overall structural schematic diagram of the snap structure for easy assembly in the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is the top view of the snap structure for easy assembly in the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is the structural schematic diagram of the snap joint, limiting platform and lock catch in the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 is the structural schematic diagram of the snap component in the first embodiment of the present invention. The present invention provides a snap structure for easy assembly, including a snap joint 101, a limiting platform 103, a lock catch 104 and a snap component. The snap component includes a limiting rod 105, a base 106, a limiting plate 107, a connecting pad 108, a foam pad 109 and a mounting seat 110; the problem that the conventional plastic snap structure has a large operating force and is difficult to assemble during actual assembly by workers is solved through the foregoing solution.

[0021] For this specific embodiment, a receiving groove 102 is provided on the surface of the snap - on seat 101. The limiting platform 103 is fixedly connected to the snap - on seat 101 and is located at the top of the snap - on seat 101. The locking buckle 104 is fixedly connected to the limiting platform 103 and is located in the middle of the limiting platform 103. The snap - buckle assembly is detachably connected to the snap - on seat 101 and is located inside the receiving groove 102. The snap - on seat 101 can be applied to the connection between various automotive plastic interior and exterior parts and the body sheet metal, such as automotive exterior spoiler, side - panel decorative plate, automotive interior door panel, pillar. A plastic part should be distributed with multiple snap - buckle structures, usually one every 30 cm. Taking the exterior spoiler as an example, the size is about 1200mm * 500mm. An exterior spoiler requires at least 6 snap - buckle assemblies + dog - house structures for pre - installation connection with the body. The receiving groove 102 is used for installing the snap - buckle assembly. The limiting platform 103 cooperates with the base 106 and the limiting plate 107 to facilitate the limitation of the position of the limiting rod 105. The locking buckle 104 is an inverted - eight - shaped plastic part. During assembly, the base 106 and the limiting plate 107 are clamped on the upper and lower sides of the limiting platform 103, and the limiting rod 105 is inserted into the receiving groove 102 along the locking buckle 104. The limiting rod 105 is fixed in the middle of the snap - on seat 101 through the inverted - eight - shaped locking buckle 104. In this process, the required installation force for the limiting rod 105 to be inserted into the locking buckle 104 is small, only about 5N, making the snap - buckle assembly easy to install.

[0022] Among them, the limiting rod 105 is detachably connected to the snap - on seat 101 and is located inside the locking buckle 104. The base 106 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 105 and is located at the bottom of the limiting rod 105. The limiting plate 107 is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 105 and is located at the top of the limiting platform 103. The limiting rod 105 cooperates with the locking buckle 104 to facilitate the fixation of the position of the snap - buckle assembly. The base 106 and the limiting plate 107 provide a fixing function for the limiting rod 105 to prevent the limiting rod 105 from shaking inside the locking buckle 104 after installation, making the connection more stable.

[0023] Secondly, the connecting pad 108 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 107 and is located on the top of the connecting pad 108. The foam pad 109 is fixedly connected to the connecting pad 108 and is located on the top of the connecting pad 108. When the snap - buckle assembly is externally connected to parts, the connecting pad 108 and the foam pad 109 are used to shock - absorb, position, and waterproof the installed parts, preventing the parts from squeezing the limiting plate 107 and the locking buckle 104, resulting in the separation of the limiting rod 105 from the locking buckle 104.

[0024] Again, the mounting base 110 is fixedly connected to the foam pad 109 and is located on the top of the foam pad 109. The mounting base 110 is used for mounting and fixing automotive parts.

[0025] Finally, an installation groove 111 is provided at the bottom of the clamping seat 101, and a fixing groove 112 is provided on the outer surface of the mounting base 110. The installation groove 111 facilitates the installation and fixing of the clamping seat 101, and the fixing groove 112 facilitates the fixing of external parts on the outside of the mounting base 110.

[0026] Using the easy-to-assemble snap structure of this embodiment, the clamping seat 101 can be applied to the connection of various automotive plastic interior and exterior parts to the body sheet metal, such as automotive exterior spoiler, side trim panel, automotive interior door panel, pillar. A plastic part should be distributed with multiple such snap structures, usually one every 30 cm. Taking the exterior spoiler as an example, the size is about 1200mm * 500mm. At least 6 such snap components + doghouse structure are required for a spoiler for pre-installation connection with the body. The receiving groove 102 is used for installing the snap components. The limiting platform 103 cooperates with the base 106 and the limiting plate 107 to facilitate the limitation of the position of the limiting rod 105. The lock 104 is an inverted V-shaped plastic part. During assembly, the base 106 and the limiting plate 107 are clamped on the upper and lower sides of the limiting platform 103, and the limiting rod 105 is inserted into the receiving groove 102 along the lock 104. The limiting rod 105 is fixed in the middle of the clamping seat 101 by the inverted V-shaped lock 104. During this process, the required installation force for inserting the limiting rod 105 into the lock 104 is small, only about 5N, making the snap components easy to install, and solving the problem that the operation force of the conventional plastic snap structure is large and the assembly is difficult during actual assembly by workers.

[0027] What is disclosed above is only one or more preferred embodiments of the present application, and the scope of rights of the present application cannot be limited thereby. Those of ordinary skill in the art can understand the entire or partial processes of implementing the above embodiments, and the equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present application still fall within the scope covered by the present application.
