[0032] The terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion of elements other than the listed elements and may also include additional elements not specifically listed.
[0033] Example 1
[0034] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the utility model provides a tailgate structure, including a tailgate outer panel 1 and a tailgate inner panel 2. The tailgate outer panel 1 is arranged on one side of the tailgate inner panel 2. The tailgate outer panel 1 is made of plastic material and is detachably connected to the tailgate inner panel 2.
[0035] The tailgate outer panel 1 is made of plastic with a low density, which can effectively reduce the weight of the tailgate structure, reduce vehicle costs and energy consumption during vehicle use. At the same time, the tailgate outer panel 1 and the tailgate inner panel 2 are detachably connected. When the tailgate outer panel 1 is damaged or needs to be replaced, the tailgate outer panel 1 can be directly removed from the tailgate inner panel 2 and the tailgate outer panel 1 can be replaced, reducing replacement and maintenance costs.
[0036] Specifically, the rear door outer panel 1 is directly injection molded, avoiding the use of traditional cold stamping, thereby reducing mold processes, shortening the project development cycle, and reducing manufacturing investment costs. In addition, the rear door outer panel 1 can be formed into a variety of styling styles to meet the diverse needs of users.
[0037] Furthermore, the rear door outer panel 1 is injection molded from a colored plastic material. Specifically, the rear door outer panel 1 can be injection molded from a mixture of PP particles and masterbatches. The mixture of PP particles and masterbatches is a conventional material currently used to produce colored plastics. By adding masterbatches to the PP particle material used to make the rear door outer panel 1, the colored rear door outer panel 1 can be directly injection molded, thereby eliminating the need to paint the rear door outer panel 1. Since the painting process is a high-investment, high-energy-consuming, and high-pollution project, the manufacturing investment cost is further reduced, energy consumption is reduced, and environmental pollution is reduced. At the same time, since the rear door outer panel 1 and the rear door inner panel 2 are detachable, the rear door outer panel 1 has various colors after injection molding, so the rear door outer panel 1 can be directly replaced with a new shape to meet the user's skin-changing needs. In other embodiments, the material of the tailgate outer panel 1 is not limited to PP particles and masterbatches, and other low-density plastic materials can also be used, as long as they can reduce the weight of the tailgate structure, reduce vehicle costs and energy consumption during vehicle use.
[0038] In order to realize the detachable connection between the back door outer panel 1 and the back door inner panel 2, the back door outer panel 1 is provided with a first flange 101 on the periphery of the side facing the back door inner panel 2, and the first flange 101 is extended along the outer edge of the back door outer panel 1, and the back door inner panel 2 is provided with a second flange 201 on the periphery of the side facing the back door outer panel 1, and the second flange 201 is extended along the outer edge of the back door inner panel 2, and when the back door outer panel 1 and the back door inner panel 2 are spliced together, the first flange 101 covers the second flange 201, and the first flange 101 is provided There are several mounting recesses 102 or first fasteners 3. In this embodiment, the mounting recesses 102 are arranged on the first flange 101, and there are several mounting recesses 102. Several mounting recesses 102 are evenly arranged on the first flange 101. Correspondingly, several first fasteners 3 are connected to the second flange 201. The first fasteners 3 are arranged on the side of the second flange 201 facing away from the first flange 101. The first fasteners 3 can be set as rivet nuts. Several first fasteners 3 and several mounting recesses 102 are one-to-one. It should be set that a second fastener 4 is provided on the mounting recess 102, and the second fastener 4 on the mounting recess 102 is adapted to the corresponding first fastener 3. The second fastener 4 can be set as a mounting screw in this embodiment, and the end of the second fastener 4 facing away from its nut is sequentially inserted into the mounting recess 102 and the first fastener 3 and is threadedly connected with the first fastener 3, and the nut of the second fastener 4 is tightly pressed against the inner wall of the mounting recess 102, limiting the first flange 101 and the second flange 201 between the nut and the second fastener 4. The first fastener 3 is interposed between the two members, thereby making the tailgate outer panel 1 and the tailgate inner panel 2 detachably connected. In other embodiments, the mounting recess 102 is arranged on the second flange 201. Accordingly, the first fastener 3 is arranged on the first flange 101, and the mounting recess 102 is also provided with a second fastener 4. The second fastener 4 is sequentially inserted into the mounting recess 102 and the first fastener 3 and is threadedly connected to the first fastener 3, and the nut of the second fastener 4 is pressed against the inner wall of the mounting recess 102, thereby realizing a detachable connection.
[0039] As another embodiment, the tailgate structure also includes a rear windshield 8, which is connected to the tailgate outer panel 1, and an opening is provided on the tailgate inner panel 2 for placing and fixing the rear windshield 8, so that the driver can observe the situation behind the vehicle through the rear windshield 8. Specifically, a third flange 103 is provided on the side of the tailgate outer panel 1 facing the rear windshield 8, and the third flange 103 extends toward the tailgate inner panel 2. A seal 801 is provided between the third flange 103 and the rear windshield 8, and the seal 801 extends along the length direction of the third flange 103, and extends toward the third flange 103 and the rear windshield 8 until it conflicts with the third flange 103 and the rear windshield 8, thereby sealing the third flange 103 and the rear windshield 8, and a certain amount of interference is provided between the third flange 103 and the seal 801 to improve the sealing performance of the tailgate structure. In this embodiment, the seal 801 can be a sealing strip to achieve sealing.
[0040] As another embodiment, the tailgate structure further includes a reinforcing lining 5, which is arranged on the side of the tailgate outer panel 1 facing the tailgate inner panel 2 and is connected to the tailgate outer panel 1. The tailgate outer panel 1 is detachably connected to the tailgate inner panel 2 through the reinforcing lining 5, so that the tailgate outer panel 1 is not directly detachably connected to the tailgate inner panel 2, thereby avoiding the need to set a detachable point on the tailgate outer panel 1, which affects the appearance of the tailgate outer panel 1.
[0041] Specifically, the reinforcing lining plate 5 is injection molded from a PP composite glass fiber material, specifically, from a mixture of PP particles and long glass fibers. The mixture of PP particles and long glass fibers is a conventional material used in the prior art to produce high-strength plastics. Furthermore, the long glass fibers are set to 30%, and the reinforcing lining plate 5 is injection molded by adding a mixture of long glass fibers and PP particles, thereby making the strength of the reinforcing lining plate 5 high. By connecting the tailgate outer panel 1 to the reinforcing lining plate 5, the strength of the tailgate outer panel 1 is enhanced.
[0042] In order to achieve the connection between the back door outer panel 1 and the reinforcement lining 5, a glue layer 6 is connected to the side of the back door outer panel 1 facing the reinforcement lining 5. The glue layer 6 is arranged along the periphery of the back door outer panel 1, and the back door outer panel 1 is bonded to the reinforcement lining 5 through the glue layer 6.
