[0002] With the diversification of vehicle styling, the addition of triangular windows to the A-pillar is gaining increasing popularity. This not only enhances the vehicle's aesthetics, but also helps reduce the A-pillar obstruction angle to meet regulatory requirements. However, due to the limited space available for the triangular window area, which also serves as a junction and transition area for multiple sheet metal parts and accessories, it requires superior structural strength. Currently, some triangular windows utilize a U-shaped connecting plate welded directly to the front door inner panel, resulting in fewer mounting points and support structures, and limited structural strength.

Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure thorough and complete and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art. In the accompanying drawings, like reference numerals represent like components throughout.
[0029] The specific structure of the sheet metal arrangement structure of the front triangular window of an automobile in the utility model is combined with reference to Figures 1 to 6 The sheet metal layout structure of the front triangular window of an automobile comprises:
[0030] The triangular window area has a front door inner panel 11, a front door inner panel reinforcement panel 12, a front door outer panel 13, and a front door outer panel reinforcement panel 14;
[0031] A triangular window support frame 24 is located at the lower portion of the triangular window area. One side of the triangular window support frame 24 is fixedly connected to the front door inner panel 11 and the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12. The other side of the triangular window support frame 24 is fixedly connected to the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14. The fixing directions of the two sides of the triangular window support frame 24 are opposite.
[0032] The triangular window mounting bracket 25 is located at the rear of the triangular window support frame 24 . The triangular window mounting bracket 25 is fixedly connected to the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12 and provides a mounting point for the triangular window.
[0033] The front door inner panel 11 and the outer panel are the inner and outer panels of the vehicle door, respectively. In this solution, the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12 and the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14 are added to increase the connection strength in the triangular window area. In this solution, the front, rear, top, and bottom of each component are defined relative to the vehicle, with the front of the vehicle being the front, the rear being the rear, the top being the top, and the bottom being the bottom. For example, the rear portion of the triangular window support bracket 24 is defined as the direction toward the rear of the vehicle.
[0034] In actual implementation, a front triangular window sheet metal layout structure for an automobile is constructed. A triangular window support frame 24 is added to the lower portion of the triangular window area to provide support for the triangular window and allow it to rotate during installation. A triangular window mounting bracket 25 is added to the rear of the triangular window support frame 24 to provide a mounting structure for the triangular window. The front door inner panel 11 and the front door outer panel 13 in the front door window frame area are each reinforced by welded reinforcement plates and then fixedly connected by the triangular window support frame 24. The two sides of the triangular window support frame 24 are fixed in opposite directions, that is, the connection direction of the triangular window support frame 24 with the front door inner panel 11 and the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12 is not on the same side as the connection direction of the triangular window support frame 24 with the front door outer panel 13 and the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14. This improves the strength of the connection structure between the inner and outer panels of the front door and enhances the dent resistance of the vehicle door.

For example, Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, the Z-shaped upper side of the triangular window support frame 24 is welded to the front door inner panel 11 and the front door inner panel 11, and the Z-shaped lower side is welded to the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14, providing a connection structure between the inner and outer panels of the door, further improving the strength of this area and improving the dent resistance of the door. The Z-shaped triangular window support frame 24 has a bending structural feature at the cooperation with the triangular window to achieve better structural reinforcement.
[0037] In some embodiments, the distance between the triangular window support frame 24 and the triangular window mounting bracket 25 is 12 mm. For example, Figure 3 As shown, a triangular window mounting bracket 25 is added 12 mm to the rear of the triangular window support frame 24 . The triangular window mounting bracket 25 is fixedly connected to the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12 and provides a mounting structure for the triangular window.
[0038] In some embodiments, the triangular window mounting bracket 25 is provided with embedded nuts, and the triangular window mounting bracket 25 is fixedly connected to the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12 by bolts. Figure 3 As shown, the triangular window mounting bracket 25 has pre-embedded nuts that are screwed to the front door inner panel reinforcement plate 12 , facilitating quick installation and fixation of the triangular window mounting bracket 25 .
[0039] In some embodiments, the mating surface of the triangular window support frame 24 and the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14 has two reinforcing rib structures 241. For example, Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the reinforcing rib structure 241 can effectively improve the supporting strength of the triangular window support frame 24 .
[0040] In some embodiments, the triangular window support frame 24 has a positioning hole. For example, Figure 5 As shown, the positioning holes facilitate positioning during welding, ensuring the welding positioning accuracy with the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14.
[0041] In some embodiments, there are two positioning holes, one of which is a circular hole 242 and the other is an oblong hole 243. Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the circular hole 242 of the triangular window support frame 24 is The oblong hole 243 is When the triangular window support frame 24 is welded and positioned, the circular hole 242 and the oblong hole 243 ensure the welding positioning accuracy with the front door outer panel reinforcement plate 14 .
[0042] In some embodiments, a front door upper guide rail 21, a front door front guide rail 22, and a hinged corner plate 23 are provided between the front door inner panel 11 and the front door outer panel 13. The front door upper guide rail 21, the front door front guide rail 22, and the hinged corner plate 23 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom in front of the triangular window area, and the hinged corner plate is fixedly connected to the front door inner panel 11. For example, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a front door upper guide rail 21, a front door front guide rail 22, and a hinged corner plate 23 are added to the front side of the triangular window area to ensure that there is a mounting point on the front side of the triangular window area and the required strength.
