[0035] Cell to Pack (CTP) technology is a battery pack integration technology that directly integrates cells into the battery pack, skipping the traditional module link, thereby improving space utilization and energy density.
[0036] Cell to Body (CTB) technology is a technology that directly integrates the battery pack into the vehicle body structure, using the upper cover of the battery pack as the body floor.
[0037] With the development of new energy vehicles, significant progress has been made in technological development and market penetration in recent years. Battery technology, as the core part of electric vehicles, is also constantly innovating and optimizing. Battery pack technology has evolved from cell-to-pack (CTP) to body-integrated battery pack (CTB). CTB technology reduces the independent space requirement for the battery pack by integrating the battery pack with the body structure, allowing the battery pack to fit more closely to the body, thereby reducing the overall size of the vehicle. In the existing technology, the rear floor of the vehicle body is a die-cast part, and a sealing strip needs to be set between the rear floor of the vehicle body and the battery pack for sealing to meet the sealing requirements of the entire vehicle.
[0038] However, only the shorter lower area of the rear floor of the vehicle body cooperates with the sealing strip, and the sealing part of the rear floor of the vehicle body requires sufficient thickness to ensure the sealing function, resulting in increased weight and increased costs.
[0039] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a rear end structure of the vehicle body and a vehicle. The rear end structure of the vehicle body arranges the first sealing rib and the second sealing rib, and the first sealing rib is arranged below the mounting boss. The first sealing rib is divided into a connecting part and a sealing part. The bottom surface thickness of the sealing part is greater than the thickness of the connecting part. By increasing the thickness of the bottom of the sealing part to increase the contact area with the sealing strip, the required sealing effect is achieved, the thickness of the connecting part is reduced, the weight of the vehicle body is reduced, and the cost is reduced; the second sealing rib increases the contact area with the sealing strip by the arrangement of the flange part, thereby reducing the thickness of the second sealing rib, reducing the weight of the vehicle body, and reducing the cost.
[0040] The following specific embodiments describe in detail the technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0041] On the one hand, the present application provides a vehicle body rear end structure, referring to Figures 1 to 4 The rear end structure of the vehicle body includes: a rear end structure body 100, and a mounting boss 110 is provided on the rear end structure body 100;
[0042] A first sealing rib 200 is located below the mounting boss 110 and includes a connecting portion 210 and a sealing portion 220 connected to the connecting portion 210. The connecting portion 210 is disposed on the vehicle body rear end structural body 100. The bottom surface thickness of the sealing portion 220 is greater than that of the connecting portion 210. The sealing portion 220 is used to abut against the vehicle's sealing strip 500.
[0043] The second sealing rib 300 is provided on the rear end structural body 100 of the vehicle body and is connected to the rear end structural body 100 of the vehicle body. The second sealing rib 300 is located on the outside of the mounting boss 110. The second sealing rib 300 is provided with a flange portion 310, which is used to abut against the sealing strip 500.
[0044] Specifically, the mounting boss 110 is located in the center of the rear-end structural body 100. It protrudes beyond the edge of the body's rear-end structural body 100 and the first sealing rib 200. Mounting boss 110 is used to mount the upper structure of the body's rear-end structural body 100. The connecting portion 210 and the sealing portion 220 are smoothly connected along the height of the cross section. The rear-end structural body 100 is used to mount rear-end structures such as rear seats and seatbelts, and is equivalent to the rear floor structure of other vehicles.
[0045] In CTB technology, the battery pack 400 is integrated with the vehicle body structure, with the upper housing of the battery pack 400 serving as the vehicle floor. The vehicle seal is located between the upper housing of the battery pack 400 and the vehicle body structure. In this embodiment, the seal between the rear end structure and the vehicle body is located on the battery pack 400, that is, between the rear end structure main body 100 and the battery panels. This seal is achieved through a sealing strip 500.
[0046] The first sealing rib 200 is arranged below the mounting boss 110. The first sealing rib 200 is divided into a connecting portion 210 and a sealing portion 220 along the height direction of the cross section. The bottom surface thickness of the sealing portion 220 is greater than the thickness of the connecting portion 210. By increasing the thickness of the bottom of the sealing portion 220 to increase the contact area with the sealing strip 500, the required sealing effect is achieved. The thickness of the connecting portion 210 is reduced, which reduces the weight of the vehicle body and reduces the cost. The second sealing rib 300 increases the contact area with the sealing strip 500 through the setting of the flange portion 310, thereby reducing the thickness of the second sealing rib 300, reducing the weight of the vehicle body and reducing the cost.
[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle body rear end structural body 100, the first sealing rib 200 and the second sealing rib 300 are integrally die-cast.
[0048] Reference Figure 2 The second sealing rib 300 and the flange portion 310 are also integrally formed, and the flange portion 310 is located at the bottom of the second sealing rib, so that the bottom surface of the flange portion 310 serves as a sealing surface with the battery pack 400.
[0049] The rear end structure of the vehicle body is a die-cast part. To facilitate smooth demolding of the rear end structure, the connection between the connecting portion 210 and the sealing portion 220 of the first sealing rib 200 is smoothly transitioned. The thickness of the end of the sealing portion 220 where it connects to the connecting portion 210 is equal to the thickness of the connecting portion 210, and the thickness of the sealing portion 220 away from the connecting portion 210 is greater than the thickness of the connecting portion 210. The sidewalls of the sealing portion 220 are inclined to smoothly increase the thickness of the bottom surface of the sealing portion 220. The cross-section of the sealing portion 220 is trapezoidal in height.
[0050] In the rear-end structure of the vehicle body, the mounting boss 110 protrudes beyond the edge of the rear floor panel, so the first sealing rib 200 at the bottom of the mounting boss 110 can only be demolded in one direction, downward. By adopting the above technical solution, the thickness of the connecting portion 210 in the first sealing rib 200 is reduced, and the impact of one-way demolding is reduced. Only the mold on both sides of the first sealing rib 200 needs to be split into two parts, and the first sealing rib 200 can be smoothly demolded from the bottom by utilizing the slight elasticity of the first sealing rib 200. This meets the sealing requirements while achieving a lightweight effect.
[0051] In the rear-end structure, the second sealing rib 300 is located on the side of the mounting boss 110, ensuring that there are no obstacles to demolding on either side. The flange 310 on the second sealing rib 300 is released from the upper and lower molds, respectively, to achieve demolding of the second sealing rib 300. This reduces the thickness of the second sealing rib 300 while meeting sealing requirements, without hindering demolding and achieving a lightweight effect.
[0052] In some embodiments, the surface of the sealing portion 220 facing the sealing strip and the surface of the flange portion 310 facing the sealing strip are located in the same plane.
[0053] The bottom surface of the sealing portion 220 and the bottom surface of the flange portion 310 are located in the same plane, so that the sealing strip 500 is installed in the same plane. While facilitating installation, it reduces the span of the sealing strip 500 between different planes, which is beneficial to reducing damage to the sealing strip 500 and improving the sealing effect.
[0054] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 210 includes an inclined section 211 and an arcuate section 212. The arcuate section 211 is provided on the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100, and the inclined section 212 is provided on the arcuate section 211. The sealing portion 220 is provided on the inclined section 212, and the inclined section 212 is provided in an inclined direction away from the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100.
[0055] Compared with the vertical setting, the inclined setting of the first sealing rib 200 allows the first sealing rib 200 to be able to spring outward away from the rear end structural body 100 of the vehicle body, so as to facilitate the one-way release of the mold at the first sealing rib 200 during the demolding process.
[0056] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inclined section 212 and the side of the sealing portion 220 away from the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 are located in the same plane, and the inclination angle of the side of the inclined section 212 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 is greater than the inclination angle of the side of the sealing portion 220 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100.
[0057] Specifically, the inclined section 212 and the sealing portion 220 have the same inclination angle on the side facing away from the rear end structural body 100. The inclination angle on the side of the sealing portion 220 closer to the rear floor is reduced, resulting in a trapezoidal cross-section of the sealing portion 220. The bottom thickness of the sealing portion 220 is greater than that of the connecting portion 210. Furthermore, the transition between the sealing portion 220 and the inclined section 212 is smooth, with no sharp corners that may occur during demolding. This reduces the thickness of the connecting portion 210 while maintaining the required strength, achieving a lightweight effect.
[0058] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inclination angle of the inclined section 212 close to the side surface of the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 is a, 5°≤a≤15°.
[0059] The inclination angle a of the side of the inclined section 212 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 is the angle between the side of the inclined section 212 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 and the vertical direction, that is, the demolding angle.
[0060] Preferably, the inclination angle a of the inclined section 212 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 is 10°.
[0061] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inclination angle of the sealing portion 220 close to the side surface of the vehicle body rear end structural body 100 is b, 1.5°≤a≤5°.
[0062] The inclination angle of the sealing portion 220 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 is b, which is the angle between the sealing portion 220 close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 and the vertical direction, that is, the demoulding angle.
[0063] Preferably, the inclination angle b of the sealing portion 220 on the side close to the vehicle body rear end structural main body 100 is 2°.
[0064] In some embodiments, the thickness of the connecting portion 210 is 5 mm, and the bottom thickness of the sealing portion 220 is 6 mm.
[0065] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The draft angle a of the inclined section 212 is 10°, the draft angle b of the sealing portion 220 is 2°, the thickness c of the connecting portion 210 is 5 mm, the bottom thickness d of the sealing portion 220 is 6 mm, and the height h of the sealing portion 220 is 8 mm. This ensures that the strength requirements of the first sealing rib 200 are met while reducing the weight of the first sealing rib 200, thereby achieving a lightweight effect.
[0066] In other embodiments, the angle difference and the height h of the sealing portion 220 can be flexibly adjusted to achieve a specific wall thickness combination based on the required wall thickness difference between the connecting portion 210 and the sealing portion 220. The draft angle a is defined based on the depth of the rib. When the depth of the first sealing rib 200 (i.e., the height of the first sealing rib 200) is greater than 80 mm, the draft angle a of the inclined section 212 is ≥5°; the draft angle b of the sealing portion 220 is ≥1.5°. On this basis, the height h of the sealing portion 220 is increased, and the wall thickness is thickened. The thickness of the bottom surface of the sealing portion 220 can thus be adjusted as required.
[0067] In some embodiments, two second sealing ribs 300 are provided. The two second sealing ribs 300 are provided on both sides of the mounting boss 110 and are connected to the first sealing rib 200 .
[0068] Specifically, the mounting boss 110 is located in the middle of the vehicle body rear end structural body 100, so that the first sealing rib 200 is set in the middle of the vehicle body rear end structural body 100. Therefore, the areas on both sides of the mounting boss 110 are set as the second sealing rib 300. Figure 1 The dotted-line boxes on both sides are the areas where the second sealing rib 300 is set, and the area between the two dotted-line boxes is the area where the first sealing rib 200 is set.
[0069] On the other hand, the present application provides a vehicle including the aforementioned rear-end structure. The rear-end structure is mounted on the vehicle and a sealing strip 500 is provided between the rear-end structure and the upper housing of the battery pack 400 to form a seal for the entire vehicle.
[0070] Among them, the rear end structure of the vehicle body in this embodiment is the same as the structure of the rear end structure of the vehicle body provided in any of the above embodiments, and can bring the same or similar technical effects. They will not be described one by one here, and please refer to the description of the above embodiments for details.
[0071] The present application provides a vehicle in which a first sealing rib 200 is arranged below the mounting boss 110 in the rear end structure of the vehicle body. The first sealing rib 200 is divided into a connecting portion 210 and a sealing portion 220. The bottom surface thickness of the sealing portion 220 is greater than the thickness of the connecting portion 210. By increasing the thickness of the bottom of the sealing portion 220 to increase the contact area with the sealing strip 500, the desired sealing effect is achieved, and the thickness of the connecting portion 210 is reduced; the second sealing rib 300 increases the contact area with the sealing strip 500 by the setting of the flange portion 310, thereby reducing the thickness of the second sealing rib 300, reducing the weight of the vehicle body, and reducing costs.
