[0025] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments.
[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the automobile instrument panel skeleton of the present invention is made into the following embodiments.
[0027] A co-pilot area 100 is set on the right side of the car dashboard frame. The co-pilot area 100 is provided with a co-pilot platform 110 and a co-pilot vertical surface 120. The co-pilot platform 110 is arranged in the front-to-back direction, and the co-pilot vertical surface 120 is arranged in the up-down direction. The rear side of the co-pilot platform 110 is connected to the upper side of the co-pilot vertical surface 120. The co-pilot vertical surface 120 is provided with a glove box mounting hole 121 that passes through from front to back. The glove box mounting hole 121 is used to install the glove box.
[0028] The first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122 , the second co-pilot weight reduction hole 123 and the third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 are respectively provided on the left side, right side and upper side of the glove box mounting hole 121 , and the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122 , the second co-pilot weight reduction hole 123 and the third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 all pass through the co-pilot facade 120 .
[0029] The co-pilot area 100 on the right side of the car dashboard frame is generally used to install the glove box and the co-pilot airbag, so the strength requirement of the co-pilot area 100 is lower than that of the other areas of the car dashboard frame; therefore, a first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122 is set on the left side of the glove box mounting hole 121, a second co-pilot weight reduction hole 123 is set on the right side of the glove box mounting hole 121, and a third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 is set on the upper side of the glove box mounting hole 121. The provision of the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122, the second co-pilot weight reduction hole 123 and the third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 in the co-pilot area 100 helps to reduce the weight of the car dashboard frame to meet the requirements of the vehicle lightweight design.
[0030] Since the glove box exerts less pressure near the glove box mounting hole 121, the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122, the second co-pilot weight reduction hole 123 and the third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 are arranged outside the glove box mounting hole 121, which has little impact on the assembly and subsequent stability of the glove box; and, the number of electronic components and related equipment that need to be installed in the co-pilot area 100 is relatively small. Even if the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122, the second co-pilot weight reduction hole 123 and the third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 reduce the structural strength of the co-pilot area 100, the degree of reduction in the structural strength is not enough to affect the installation stability of the related components of the co-pilot area 100.
[0031] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a central control area 200 is set in the middle of the car dashboard frame. The central control area 200 is located on the left side of the co-pilot area 100. The central control area 200 is provided with a central control table 210 and a central control vertical surface 220. The central control table 210 is set along the front and rear direction, and the central control vertical surface 220 is set along the up and down direction. The rear side of the central control table 210 is connected to the upper side of the central control vertical surface 220, and a central control weight reduction hole 230 is opened between the central control table 210 and the central control vertical surface 220.
[0032] The center console 210 of some cars will be installed with some sensors or have grooves for placing items, and the center console vertical surface 220 is generally used to install the car's central control system, so a center console weight reduction hole 230 is set between the center console 210 and the center console vertical surface 220 to avoid affecting the installation structure of the center console 210 or the center console vertical surface 220.
[0033] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are two central control weight reduction holes 230 , and the two central control weight reduction holes 230 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides.
[0034] Since air-conditioning ducts or a central control display screen may need to be installed in the middle position between the central control table surface 210 and the central control vertical surface 220, the central control weight reduction holes 230 are set on the left and right sides to avoid the above-mentioned air-conditioning ducts or the installation of the central control display screen to avoid affecting the installation structure of the above-mentioned devices.
[0035] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122 is provided between the central control facade 220 and the co-pilot facade 120 .
[0036] In order to increase the volume of the glove box, the length of the glove box mounting hole 121 in the left and right directions of the co-pilot facade 120 is increased, so that the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122 is moved to the left, so that the first co-pilot weight reduction hole 122 is set in the area between the co-pilot facade 120 and the center console facade 220.
[0037] In some embodiments, a main driving area 300 is set on the left side of the car dashboard frame, and the main driving area 300 is set on the left side of the central control area 200. The main driving area 300 is provided with a main driving platform 310 and a main driving facade 320. The main driving platform 310 is set along the front and rear direction, and the main driving facade 320 is set along the up and down direction. The rear side of the main driving platform 310 is connected to the upper side of the main driving facade 320, and the main driving platform 310 is provided with a main driving weight reduction hole 311 that passes through from top to bottom.
[0038] The main driving facade 320 generally needs to be installed with a steering wheel, an instrument panel and related control panels, while the main driving platform 310 generally does not have an airbag, and the airbag is set on the steering wheel. Therefore, the main driving platform 310 opens a main driving weight reduction hole 311 to help reduce the weight of the main driving area 300.
[0039] In some embodiments, the main driving facade 320 is provided with a steering wheel mounting hole 321 that passes through from front to back, and the main driving weight reduction hole 311 is provided in front of the steering wheel mounting hole 321 .
[0040] Since air conditioning vents and defrost vents need to be set on the left side and front side of the main driving platform 310 respectively, the main driving weight reduction hole 311 is limited in front of the steering wheel mounting hole 321 to avoid affecting the installation of the air conditioning duct.
[0041] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple main driver weight reduction holes 311 are arranged in sequence along the left and right directions.
[0042] The main driving platform 310 is provided with a plurality of main driving weight reducing holes 311, and a partition rib is formed between every two adjacent main driving weight reducing holes 311. The plurality of partition ribs help to maintain the structural strength of the main driving platform 310 and prevent the structural strength of the main driving platform 310 from being significantly reduced by the opening of a single large-area hole.
[0043] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple first co-pilot weight reduction holes 122 are separated from each other, multiple second co-pilot weight reduction holes 123 are separated from each other, and multiple third co-pilot weight reduction holes 124 are spaced apart from each other.
[0044] Preventing a single large-area hole from being opened on the passenger side facade 120 prevents the structural strength of the passenger side facade 120 from being significantly reduced.
[0045] In some embodiments, the passenger platform 110 is provided with an airbag slot 111 which passes through from top to bottom. The airbag slot is used to install the passenger airbag, and the third passenger weight reduction hole 124 is located between the glove box installation hole 121 and the airbag slot 111 .
[0046] The middle area between the co-pilot facade 120 and the co-pilot platform 110 is generally used to install a decorative cover, and the left and right sides of the area between the co-pilot facade 120 and the co-pilot platform 110 are generally used to install air-conditioning vents. Therefore, the third co-pilot weight reduction hole 124 needs to be set in the middle part between the glove box mounting hole 121 and the airbag slot 111 to avoid affecting the installation structure of the air-conditioning duct.
[0047] The automobile instrument panel assembly of the present invention is described in the following embodiments.
[0048] An automobile instrument panel assembly includes the automobile instrument panel frame as described in the above embodiment.
[0049] Since the automobile instrument panel assembly adopts all the technical solutions of the automobile instrument panel frame of the above embodiment, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0050] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
