DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0030] As described in the background technology, the active air dam in related technology generally includes a main splitter plate and side splitter plates arranged on both sides of the main splitter plate. The main splitter plate and the side splitter plates on both sides are controlled to rotate by the vehicle's drive system, thereby improving the vehicle's aerodynamic performance.

[0031] However, when the active air dam of a vehicle suffers an impact, the active air dam is usually made of plastic, which can easily cause damage to the main splitter plate and the side splitter plate, thereby reducing the strength of the active air dam.

[0032] In response to the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present application provides an active air dam and a car, which prevents the support plate and the connecting plate from being damaged when the vehicle is hit by a collision by setting a reinforcing rod on the support plate and the connecting plate, so that the reinforcing rod enhances the strength of the support plate and the connecting plate, thereby further preventing the support plate and the connecting plate from being damaged when the vehicle is hit by a collision; and when the main diverter plate and the side diverter plate are rotating, the elastic support plate and the connecting plate can prevent the main diverter plate and the side diverter plate from interfering with each other and causing damage by friction, thereby indirectly improving the quality of the air diversion of the main diverter plate and the side diverter plate.

[0033] 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.

[0034] Combine Figures 1 to 3 An active air dam includes a main diverter plate 100 and a side diverter plate 200. Side diverter plates 200 are arranged at both ends of the main diverter plate 100. The main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 both include a support plate 300, a connecting plate 400 and a reinforcing structure 500. The support plate 300 is used to be movably connected to the vehicle body. The connecting plate 400 is arranged along the circumference of the support plate 300. The reinforcing structure 500 is arranged between the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400. The connecting plate 400 in the main diverter plate 100 is connected to the connecting plate 400 in the side diverter plate 200.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, by arranging the reinforcement structure 500 between the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, the reinforcement structure 500 can improve the strength of the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, so that the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 improve the strength of the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200, thereby reducing the probability of damage to the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 when the vehicle is hit; and when the support plate 300 is movably connected to the vehicle body, the connection strength between the support plate 300 and the vehicle body is indirectly improved; by arranging the connecting plate 400 along the circumference of the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 can cover the support plate 300, thereby indirectly improving the strength of the support plate 300, thereby further reducing the probability of damage to the support plate 300 when it is hit.

[0036] Combine Figures 1 to 3 The support plate 300 has a first windward surface 310 and a first leeward surface 320, and the first windward surface 310 and the first leeward surface 320 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the support plate 300, and the connecting plate 400 has a second windward surface 410 and a second leeward surface 420, and the second windward surface 410 and the second leeward surface 420 are respectively located on two opposite sides of the connecting plate 400, and the first windward surface 310 and the second windward surface 410 are located on the same plane.

[0037] In this embodiment, multiple mounting plates are provided on the first leeward surface 320, and the mounting plates are located in the middle of the first leeward surface 320 and on both sides of the first leeward surface 320. Two mounting holes are provided on the mounting plate in the middle of the first leeward surface 320, and one mounting hole is provided on the mounting plates located on both sides of the first leeward surface 320. The support plate 300 is movably connected to the vehicle body through the mounting plates and the mounting holes.

[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, by arranging the first windward surface 310 and the second windward surface 410 on the same surface, the height difference between the first windward surface 310 and the second windward surface 410 of the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 is prevented from affecting the air guiding effect of the main splitter plate 100 and the side splitter plate 200, thereby indirectly improving the quality of the active air dam in improving the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle.

[0039] Combine Figures 1 to 3 The thickness of the support plate 300 is greater than the thickness of the connecting plate 400 to form a connecting space 600 between the first leeward surface 320 and the second leeward surface 420 .

[0040] The thickness of the support plate 300 is set to 5mm-7mm. In this embodiment, the thickness of the support plate 300 is set to 6mm. In other embodiments, the thickness of the support plate 300 can be adaptively adjusted as needed. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the connecting space 600 is set to be "L"-shaped. In other embodiments, the angle of the "L"-shaped connecting space 600 can be set to be an obtuse angle.

[0041] By adopting the above technical solution, by making the thickness of the support plate 300 greater than the thickness of the connecting plate 400, the strength of the support plate 300 is further improved by increasing the thickness of the support plate 300, and the connecting plate 400 is arranged along the circumference of the support plate 300, which indirectly improves the strength of the connecting plate 400, thereby improving the strength of the movable connection between the support plate 300 and the vehicle body, and further improving the strength of the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200, thereby further reducing the probability of damage to the support plate 300 when it is hit.

[0042] Combine Figures 1 to 3 , the reinforcement structure 500 includes at least one reinforcement rod 510 .

[0043] In this embodiment, the multiple reinforcing rods 510 on the main diverter plate 100 are arranged parallel to each other, and the multiple reinforcing rods 510 on the side diverter plate 200 are arranged parallel to each other. In other embodiments, the multiple reinforcing rods 510 can also be perpendicular to each other, and the multiple reinforcing rods 510 can be distributed on the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 along the circumference of the support plate 300; in this embodiment, seven reinforcing rods 510 are provided on the main diverter plate 100, and three reinforcing rods 510 are provided on the side diverter plate 200, and the reinforcing rods 510 on the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 are arranged parallel to each other; in other embodiments, the shape and number of the reinforcing rods 510 can be adjusted as needed.

[0044] By adopting the above technical solution, the structure is simple and easy to manufacture by setting the reinforcing rod 510. In addition, the setting of the reinforcing rod 510 enables the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing rod 510 to form a whole, which indirectly improves the strength of the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, thereby further reducing the probability of damage to the support plate 300 when it is hit.

[0045] Combine Figures 1 to 3 The reinforcing rod 510 is located in the connecting space 600 , and the reinforcing rod 510 is arranged on the second leeward surface 420 . One end of the reinforcing rod 510 is connected to the support plate 300 , and the other end is extended in a direction away from the support plate 300 .

[0046] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the reinforcing rod 510 is set to a rectangle; in other embodiments, the cross-section of the reinforcing rod 510 can be set to other shapes such as a triangle or an isosceles trapezoid; in this embodiment, the lengths of the multiple reinforcing rods 510 on the main diverter plate 100 are the same, and the lengths of the multiple reinforcing rods 510 on the side diverter plate 200 are the same; in other embodiments, the lengths of the multiple reinforcing rods 510 can be set to different.

[0047] By adopting the above technical solution, by arranging the reinforcing rod 510 in the connecting space 600, the reinforcing rod 510 is located away from the first windward surface 310 and the second windward surface 410, thereby preventing the reinforcing rod 510 from affecting the air diversion effect of the active air dam, and hiding the reinforcing rod 510 in the connecting space 600, thereby preventing the reinforcing rod 510 from occupying the space of the active air dam, and facilitating the connection of the active air dam to the vehicle body; by connecting one end of the reinforcing rod 510 to the support plate 300 and the other end extending on the connecting plate 400 in a direction away from the support plate 300, the reinforcing rod 510 further improves the strength of the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, thereby further improving the strength of the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200, thereby further reducing the probability of damage to the support plate 300 when it is hit.

[0048] Combine Figures 1 to 3 The thickness of the reinforcing rod 510 gradually decreases from the side where the supporting plate 300 is located toward the side where the connecting plate 400 is located.

[0049] In this embodiment, the thickness of the reinforcing rod 510 is the distance between the surface of the reinforcing rod 510 facing away from the second leeward surface 420 and the second leeward surface 420; in other embodiments, the width of the reinforcing rod 510, that is, the distance between the two surfaces of the reinforcing rod 510 adjacent to the second leeward surface 420, can also be gradually reduced in the direction away from the support plate 300; in this embodiment, the thickness of the end of the reinforcing rod 510 close to the support plate 300 is set to 2mm-4mm, and the thickness of the end of the reinforcing rod 510 away from the support plate 300 is set to 0.1mm-0.5mm; in this embodiment, the thickness of the end of the reinforcing rod 510 close to the support plate 300 is set to 3mm, and the thickness of the end of the reinforcing rod 510 away from the support plate 300 is set to 0.3mm.

[0050] By adopting the above technical solution, by gradually reducing the thickness of the reinforcing rod 510, the reinforcing rod 510 is arranged in a triangular shape, so that the triangular reinforcing rod 510 can further improve the supporting effect on the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, thereby further improving the strength of the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, thereby further reducing the probability of damage to the support plate 300 when it is hit.

[0051] Combine Figures 1 to 3 , the thickness of the connecting plate 400 gradually decreases in a direction away from the supporting plate 300 .

[0052] In this embodiment, the thickness of the connecting plate 400 is the distance between the second leeward surface 420 and the second windward surface 410, the second windward surface 410 is parallel to the first leeward surface 320 and the first windward surface 310, one side of the second leeward surface 420 is connected to the support plate 300, and the other side extends obliquely toward the second windward surface 410; in other embodiments, the second windward surface 410 and the second leeward surface 420 can also be obliquely extended in a direction close to each other; in this embodiment, the thickness of the edge of the connecting plate 400 close to the support plate 300 is less than the thickness of the support plate 300, the thickness of the edge of the connecting plate 400 close to the support plate 300 is set to 2mm-4mm, and the thickness of the edge of the connecting plate 400 away from the support plate 300 is set to 1mm-3mm. In this embodiment, the thickness of the edge of the connecting plate 400 close to the support plate 300 is set to 3mm, and the thickness of the edge of the connecting plate 400 away from the support plate 300 is set to 2mm.

[0053] By adopting the above technical solution, the thickness of the connecting plate 400 is gradually reduced, thereby reducing the cost of producing the connecting plate 400, and preventing the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 from interfering with each other due to the thicker thickness of the edge of the connecting plate 400 when rotating, thereby preventing friction damage between the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200.

[0054] Combine Figures 1 to 3 The support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing structure 500 are all elastically arranged, and the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing structure 500 are arranged as one body.

[0055] In this embodiment, the support plate 300 , the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing rod 510 are all made of rubber.

[0056] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing rod 510 to be elastic, the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 can be further prevented from being damaged when being hit, and when the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 are rotating, even if the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 interfere with each other, it will not cause friction damage to the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200, and the elastic support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 have a better air guiding effect; by setting the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing rod 510 as a whole, the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 and the reinforcing rod 510 become a whole, thereby further improving the strength of the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200, thereby further preventing the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 from being damaged when being hit.

[0057] Combine Figures 1 to 3 The support plate 300 is arranged in a rectangular shape, and the connecting plate 400 is arranged on three adjacent sides of the rectangular support plate 300.

[0058] In this embodiment, the support plate 300 is arranged in a rectangular shape, and the connecting plate 400 is arranged on one of the long sides and two short sides of the rectangular support plate 300; in other embodiments, in order to improve the strength of the support plate 300, the shape of the support plate 300 can also be adaptively adjusted, for example, the support plate 300 can be adjusted to an isosceles trapezoid, etc.; in this embodiment, the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 on the main diverter plate 100 are arranged in a rectangular shape as a whole, and the connecting plate 400 on the side diverter plate 200 can be adaptively adjusted according to the needs of aerodynamics.

[0059] By adopting the above technical solution, by arranging the connecting plate 400 on the three adjacent side edges of the support plate 300, the connecting plate 400 can cover the three side edges of the support plate 300, thereby improving the strength of the support plate 300; and the connecting plates 400 of the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 can be arranged relative to each other, further preventing the edges of the connecting plates 400 with smaller thickness from interfering with each other.

[0060] An automobile comprises a vehicle body and an active air dam according to any one of the above embodiments arranged on the vehicle body.

[0061] The specific structure of the active air dam has been described in detail in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0062] By setting the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 to be elastic, the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 are prevented from being damaged when the vehicle is hit. By setting the reinforcing rod 510 on the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, the reinforcing rod 510 enhances the strength of the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400, thereby further preventing the support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 from being damaged when the vehicle is hit. When the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 are rotating, the elastic support plate 300 and the connecting plate 400 can prevent the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200 from interfering with each other and causing damage, thereby indirectly improving the quality of the air guidance of the main diverter plate 100 and the side diverter plate 200.
