[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcement bracket 100 is applied to a trunk lid assembly, and the reinforcement bracket 100 includes:
[0066] A first support portion 110 , configured to connect to a taillight bracket 300 of the trunk lid assembly; and
[0067] The first flange portion 120 is connected to the first support portion 110 and is used to connect to the upper outer panel 200 of the trunk lid assembly.
[0068] The reinforcing bracket 100 in the technical solution of the present invention includes a first supporting portion 110 and a first flange portion 120. The first supporting portion 110 is connected to the taillight bracket 300. The first flange portion 120 arranged on the first supporting portion 110 is connected to the upper outer panel 200, so that the reinforcing bracket 100 is connected to the upper outer panel 200 and the taillight bracket 300. When the upper outer panel 200 is subjected to external force, the force can be transmitted to the first flange portion 120 and then transmitted to the taillight bracket 300 through the first supporting portion 110, so that the reinforcing bracket 100 and the taillight bracket 300 provide support for the upper outer panel 200, thereby improving the stiffness and breathing mode of the upper outer panel 200, reducing the influence of the cavity between the inner panel 400 and the outer panel on the stiffness of the upper outer panel 200, and thereby reducing the possibility of problems such as dents and abnormal sounds when pressed on the upper outer panel 200, thereby extending the service life of the trunk lid assembly.
[0069] The first supporting portion 110 and the first flange portion 120 refer to Figure 6 and Figure 13 The dotted lines are used only for illustration and are not intended to limit the shape of the divided areas. The other parts of the reinforcement bracket 100 described below are also referred to in the following. Figure 6 and Figure 13 .
[0070] In the embodiment of the present invention, one first flange portion 120 may be provided on each first support portion 110 , or two or more first flange portions 120 may be provided.
[0071] In one embodiment, the first flange portion 120 connects the middle portion of the upper outer panel 200 along the vehicle width direction.
[0072] Reference Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the present invention, the first flange portion 120 is connected to the middle portion of the upper outer panel 200. Since the ends of the upper outer panel 200 along the vehicle width direction are connected to the inner panel 400 through the side panels, the middle portion of the upper outer panel 200 is affected by the cavity and has the worst stiffness. Therefore, the reinforcement bracket 100 is arranged in the middle portion of the upper outer panel 200 to provide better support for the upper outer panel 200 and also helps to ensure the uniformity of the stiffness of the upper outer panel 200 along the vehicle width direction. The middle portion of the upper outer panel 200 refers to the center or middle portion of the upper outer panel 200 that is equidistant from the ends along the vehicle width direction, that is, the middle section of the upper outer panel 200 along the vehicle width direction, and does not specifically refer to the center of the upper outer panel 200 along the vehicle width direction. Specifically, in this embodiment, the center of the first flange portion 120 along the vehicle width direction coincides with the center of the upper outer panel 200 along the vehicle width direction.
[0073] In one embodiment, the reinforcement bracket 100 further includes:
[0074] The second support portion 130 is provided on one side of the first support portion 110; and

[0076] Reference Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcing bracket 100 also includes a second supporting portion 130 and a second flange portion 140. The second supporting portion 130 is arranged on one side of the first supporting portion 110, and the second flange portion 140 is arranged on the second supporting portion 130 and connected to the upper outer panel 200, which increases the connection points between the reinforcing bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200, increases the connection strength between the reinforcing bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200, and further improves the stiffness and breathing mode of the upper outer panel 200, thereby further reducing the possibility of problems such as dents and abnormal sounds when pressed on the upper outer panel 200, and extending the service life of the trunk lid assembly.
[0077] In one embodiment, a second supporting portion 130 is respectively provided on two opposite sides of the first supporting portion 110 , and each second supporting portion 130 is correspondingly provided with at least one second flange portion 140 .
[0078] Reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 13 In the embodiment of the present invention, second support portions 130 are provided on both sides of the first support portion 110. Each second support portion 130 is provided with at least one second flange portion 140. This increases the connection strength between the reinforcing bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200, further improving the rigidity and breathing mode of the upper outer panel 200, thereby further reducing the possibility of problems such as dents and abnormal noise when pressed on the upper outer panel 200, and extending the service life of the trunk lid assembly. Each second support portion 130 can be provided with one second flange portion 140, or two or more second flange portions 140 can be provided.
[0079] In one embodiment, the first flange portion 120 extends in a direction away from the first support portion 110 to fit the upper outer panel 200; and / or,
[0080] The second flange portion 140 extends in a direction away from the second support portion 130 to be attached to the upper outer panel 200 .
[0081] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5In an embodiment of the present invention, the first flange portion 120 extends obliquely in a direction away from the first support portion 110. This oblique extension design allows the first flange portion 120 to better fit the upper outer panel 200 of the trunk lid assembly, resulting in a tight connection between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200. This increases the connection area between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200, thereby improving the connection strength between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 and ensuring the support effect of the reinforcement bracket 100 on the upper outer panel 200. The first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 can be connected by various means such as bonding or welding.
[0082] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 In the embodiment of the present invention, the second flange portion 140 extends obliquely in a direction away from the second support portion 130. This oblique extension design allows the second flange portion 140 to better fit the upper outer panel 200 of the trunk lid assembly, resulting in a tight connection between the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200. This increases the connection area between the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200, thereby improving the connection strength between the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200 and ensuring the support effect of the reinforcement bracket 100 on the upper outer panel 200. The second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200 can be connected by various means such as bonding or welding.
[0083] In one embodiment, the first flange portion 120 is provided with a first adhesive groove 121, which is provided on a side of the first flange portion 120 facing the upper outer panel 200 and is used to receive an adhesive to bond and fix the first flange portion 120 to the upper outer panel 200; and / or,
[0084] The second flange portion 140 is provided with a second adhesive groove 141 . The second adhesive groove 141 is provided on a side of the second flange portion 140 facing the upper outer panel 200 , and is used to receive adhesive to bond and fix the second flange portion 140 to the upper outer panel 200 .
[0085] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5In an embodiment of the present invention, the first flange portion 120 is bonded and fixed to the upper outer panel 200, making the connection between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 more secure and reducing the risk of separation due to vibration or impact. The first flange portion 120 is provided with a first glue groove 121 for accommodating adhesive. When assembling the reinforcement bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200, the adhesive is first added to the first glue groove 121, and then the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 are affixed, making the assembly operation convenient. The first glue groove 121 can accommodate a large amount of adhesive, making the bonding between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 more secure. Moreover, after the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 are affixed, the adhesive is not easily squeezed out, thereby ensuring the aesthetics of the assembly between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200. The first flange portion 120 is provided with at least two first adhesive grooves 121. Adjacent first adhesive grooves 121 are spaced apart, further enhancing the bonding strength between the first flange portion 120 and the upper outer panel 200 and reducing the possibility of separation between the reinforcement bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first flange portion 120 is provided with two first adhesive grooves 121, each extending along the width of the vehicle. This allows the first adhesive grooves 121 to cover a larger area, providing a better adhesive fixation effect, and also improves the stability of the trunk lid assembly in the vehicle width direction.
[0086] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of the present invention, the second flange portion 140 is bonded and fixed to the upper outer panel 200, making the connection between the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200 more secure and reducing the risk of separation due to vibration or impact. The second flange portion 140 is provided with a second adhesive groove 141 for accommodating adhesive. When assembling the reinforcement bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200, the adhesive is first added to the first adhesive groove 121 and the second adhesive groove 141, and then the first flange portion 120 and the second flange portion 140 are affixed to the upper outer panel 200, making the assembly operation convenient. The second adhesive groove 141 can accommodate a large amount of adhesive, making the bonding between the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200 more secure. Moreover, after the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200 are affixed, the adhesive is not easily squeezed out, ensuring the aesthetics of the assembly between the second flange portion 140 and the upper outer panel 200.
[0087] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5In an embodiment of the present invention, the extension direction of the first glue groove 121 and the extension direction of the second glue groove 141 intersect with each other. When the first flange portion 120 and the second flange portion 140 are both bonded to the upper outer panel 200, the bonding structure between the upper outer panel 200 and the reinforcing bracket 100 extends along multiple different directions, making it easier to resist vibrations or impacts from different directions, further enhancing the connection firmness between the reinforcing bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200, and reducing the possibility of the reinforcing bracket 100 and the upper outer panel 200 separating and falling off.
[0088] In one embodiment, the reinforcement bracket 100 further includes a first connecting portion 150 . The first connecting portion 150 is disposed at an end of the second supporting portion 130 away from the first supporting portion 110 and is used to connect to the inner panel 400 of the trunk lid assembly.
