Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile sunroofs, and more particularly to a sunroof supporting mechanical group. Background Art

[0002] The car sunroof has good ventilation, cooling, and defogging functions, and the car equipped with the sunroof also looks more elegant, so most cars are currently equipped with sunroofs. Most existing car sunroofs are movably connected to the top of the car through a mechanical group.

[0003] The automobile sunroof mechanical assembly generally includes a support arm for connecting the automobile sunroof tray and a rotating arm rotatably connected to both ends of the support arm. The slider on the rotating arm cooperates with the sliding arm and the connecting arm located between the two rotating arms, and the connecting arm and the sliding arm rotate in coordination. Most of the existing connection methods use a hinge block to rotatably connect the connecting arm and the sliding arm, but the hinge block itself is generally integrally formed with the connecting arm or the sliding arm and cannot be disassembled. Therefore, if it is damaged in the later stage, the entire mechanical assembly needs to be replaced together, which is costly, and cannot be separated during replacement, so the operation is cumbersome and inefficient.

[0004] Therefore, a new solution needs to be proposed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a skylight supporting mechanical group.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is:

[0007] A sunroof support mechanism group includes a support arm for fixing to a car sunroof, and a front rotating arm and a rear rotating arm rotatably connected to both ends of the support arm, wherein the front rotating arm is movably connected to a sliding arm slidably connected to a sunroof base slide rail at one end away from the support arm, and the rear rotating arm is movably connected to a connecting arm at one end away from the support arm, and the connecting arm is rotatably connected to the sliding arm at one end close to the sliding arm via a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is provided with a limiting structure for limiting the sliding arm from moving away from the connecting arm in the thickness direction.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a rotation hole cooperating with the rotation shaft is provided at one end of the sliding arm close to the connecting arm, and the rotation shaft extends along the thickness direction of the connecting arm and is inserted into the rotation hole to form a rotational fit.

[0009] The utility model is further configured such that the limiting structure includes a rotating buckle rotatably connected to an end of the rotating shaft away from the connecting arm, a protrusion is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the rotating buckle, and a notch for the protrusion to pass through is opened on the inner peripheral wall of the rotating hole.

[0010] The utility model is further configured such that a fixing rod is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating buckle close to the rotating shaft, a blind hole for inserting the fixing rod is opened on the top of the rotating shaft, and the fixing rod is rotatably connected to the inner bottom wall of the blind hole.

[0011] The utility model is further configured such that the limiting structure also includes an elastic part arranged in the blind hole, the elastic part is sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the fixing rod, one end of the elastic part is fixedly connected to the side wall of the blind hole, and the other end of the elastic part is fixedly connected to the fixing rod, and the elastic part has elastic deformation potential energy for driving the rotating buckle to rotate in a direction away from the notch.

[0012] The utility model is further configured such that a groove is provided on one side of the sliding arm, the rotating hole is provided on the inner bottom wall of the groove, the limit block is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the groove, and there is a distance between the inner bottom wall of the groove and the protrusion.

[0013] The beneficial technical effects of the utility model are:

[0014] By setting a limiting structure and cooperating with the elastic part and the rotating buckle, when the rotating shaft and the rotating buckle are inserted into the rotating hole, the elasticity of the elastic part drives the rotating buckle to rotate, so that the protrusion is away from the notch, thereby achieving the effect of limiting the sliding arm from being away from the connecting arm in the thickness direction, and completing the installation of the sliding arm and the connecting arm; when disassembly is required, it is only necessary to rotate the rotating buckle in the opposite direction so that the protrusion is aligned with the notch to complete the disassembly, making the overall structure faster to disassemble and assemble, and convenient for later maintenance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to more clearly understand the technical means of the present invention and implement it according to the contents of the specification, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0021] A sunroof support mechanism assembly, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, it includes a support arm 1 for fixing to the car sunroof and a front rotating arm 2 and a rear rotating arm 4 which are respectively rotatably connected to the two ends of the support arm 1. The end of the front rotating arm 2 away from the support arm 1 is movably connected to a sliding arm 3 which is slidably connected to the sunroof base slide rail. The end of the rear rotating arm 4 away from the support arm 1 is movably connected to a connecting arm 5. The end of the connecting arm 5 close to the sliding arm 3 is rotatably connected to the sliding arm 3 through a rotating shaft 31. The rotating shaft 31 is provided with a limiting structure for limiting the sliding arm 3 from moving away from the connecting arm 5 in the thickness direction.

[0022] A sliding member 6 is provided on the front rotating arm 2 and the rear rotating arm 4. A slider is provided on the side of the sliding member 6 facing away from the support arm 1. A sliding groove is provided on one side of the sliding arm 3 and the connecting arm 5 for sliding cooperation with the slider. By setting the sliding cooperation between the slider and the sliding groove on the sliding member 6, the movement trajectory is limited, and the cooperation between the sliding arm 3 and the connecting arm 5 and the two rotating arms at both ends of the support arm 1 is made more stable, making the movement of the sliding arm 3 and the connecting arm 5 more stable.

[0023] The sliding arm 3 is provided with a rotating hole 52 that cooperates with the rotating shaft 31 at one end near the connecting arm 5. The rotating shaft 31 extends along the thickness direction of the connecting arm 5 and is inserted into the rotating hole 52 to form a rotating fit. The limiting structure includes an elastic member 33 and a rotating buckle 32 rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 31 at one end away from the connecting arm 5. A protrusion 322 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the rotating buckle 32. The setting of the protrusion 322 also makes the rotation of the rotating buckle 32 more convenient. A notch 53 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the rotating hole 52 for the protrusion 322 to pass through. A fixing rod 321 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating buckle 32 near the rotating shaft 31. A blind hole 311 is provided on the top of the rotating shaft 31 for the fixing rod 321 to be inserted. The fixing rod 321 and the blind hole 31 1 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom wall of the blind hole 311, the elastic member 33 is a torsion spring and is arranged in the blind hole 311. The elastic member 33 is sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the fixing rod 321. One end of the elastic member 33 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the blind hole 311, and the other end of the elastic member 33 is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 321. The elastic member 33 has elastic deformation potential energy for driving the rotating buckle 32 to rotate in a direction away from the notch 53; by providing the elastic member 33, when the rotating buckle 32 passes through the rotating hole 52 and the protrusion 322 passes through the notch 53, the elasticity of the elastic member 33 is used to rotate the rotating buckle 32, causing the protrusion 322 to move away from the notch 53, thereby limiting the rotating buckle 32 from disengaging from the rotating hole 52, thereby limiting the sliding arm 3 from moving away from the connecting arm 5 along the thickness direction.

[0024] A groove 51 is provided on one side of the sliding arm 3, and a rotating hole 52 is provided on the inner bottom wall of the groove 51. The limit block is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the groove 51. There is a distance between the inner bottom wall of the groove 51 and the protrusion 322. By setting the groove 51, the protrusion 322 on the rotating buckle 32 does not conflict with the inner bottom wall of the groove 51, thereby affecting the rotation effect of the connecting arm 5, ensuring the service life of the overall structure, and the setting of the groove 51 also makes the rotating buckle 32 accommodated in the groove 51, and will not cause the rotating buckle 32 to protrude, affecting the use effect.

[0025] Working principle: move the rotating shaft 31 of the sliding arm 3 close to the side of the connecting arm 5 without the groove 51, rotate the rotating buckle 32 so that it corresponds to the notch 53 on the rotating hole 52, and the elastic member 33 is deformed by the external force, and the rotating shaft 31 and the rotating buckle 32 are passed through the rotating buckle 32. When they are completely passed through, release the rotating buckle 32, and the elastic member 33 returns to its original state through its own elasticity, causing the rotating buckle 32 to rotate so that the protrusion 322 moves away from the notch 53, restricting the rotating buckle 32 from disengaging from the rotating hole 52, thereby restricting the sliding arm 3 from moving away from the connecting arm 5 in the thickness direction, completing the installation of the connecting arm 5 and the sliding arm 3; when maintenance and replacement are required, it is only necessary to rotate the rotating buckle 32 so that the protrusion 322 is aligned with the notch 53 to complete the disassembly, making the overall structure disassembly and assembly faster and convenient for later maintenance.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
