Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of side covers, in particular to a high-strength side cover. Background Art
[0002] The side covers of motor vehicles are located on the left and right sides of the motor vehicle, covering the engine, battery and other parts of the motor vehicle. When the motor vehicle overturns or collides from the side, the side covers can protect the engine, battery and other parts, and can also play a decorative role. Therefore, some chrome-plated decorative strips are used on the side covers to decorate the side covers to increase their aesthetics. Most of the existing decorative parts are installed on the side covers by snap-fit connection. When there is a certain assembly gap between the buckles and the slots, the bumps and vibrations of the vehicle will cause the buckles to loosen and fall off, and abnormal noises to be generated. Therefore, designing a side cover with a firm and tight connection that is not easily loosened, fallen off, or makes abnormal noises due to the bumps and vibrations of the vehicle is one of the problems that need to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a high-strength side cover in response to the above-mentioned defects. The side cover has a firm and tight connection with the decorative part and is not easily loosened, fallen off or makes abnormal noises due to the bumps and vibrations of the vehicle. The side cover has high structural strength and better protective performance.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is as follows: a high-strength side cover includes a side cover main body, the bottom end of the side cover front surface is provided with a decorative part installation area for installing a decorative part, the rear end surface of the decorative part installation area is symmetrically provided with an installation protrusion, the installation protrusion is provided with a mounting hole that passes through the side cover, the front end surface of the decorative part installation area is provided with a positioning groove connected to the mounting hole, the rear end surface of the installation protrusion is symmetrically provided with a first connecting arm with an arc-shaped cross-section at the upper and lower ends of the mounting hole, the corresponding ends of the two first connecting arms are provided with a vertically arranged second connecting arm, the corresponding ends of the two second connecting arms are provided with an arc-shaped groove matching the mounting hole, a plurality of connecting blocks are annularly provided inside the arc-shaped groove, the rear end surface of the decorative part is provided with a positioning column matching the positioning groove, the rear end surface of the positioning column is provided with a connecting column matching the mounting hole, and the connecting column is annularly provided with a card groove matching the connecting block.
[0005] Furthermore, the positioning column passes through the side cover and the mounting protrusion and extends to the rear of the second connecting arm. After the connecting block is engaged with the slot, the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove applies a pressing force to the outer surface of the connecting column.
[0006] Furthermore, edge reinforcement ribs are provided on the outer periphery of the front end surface of the side cover body.
[0007] Furthermore, a reinforcement protrusion is provided above the decorative component installation area, and a heat dissipation port is provided on the reinforcement protrusion.
[0008] Furthermore, a bottom reinforcing rib is provided at the bottom end of the reinforcing protrusion, and both ends of the bottom reinforcing rib are respectively connected to the edge reinforcing ribs.
[0009] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the slot.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0011] The utility model cooperates with the positioning groove, the first connecting arm, the second connecting arm, the arc-shaped groove, the connecting block, the positioning column, the connecting column and the card slot. When the decorative part is connected to the side cover, the connecting column enters the installation hole and enters the positioning groove through the positioning column to guide and limit the moving direction of the connecting column. The outer surface of the connecting column first conflicts with the connecting block, and as the connecting column continues to move, the connecting block is squeezed, so that the arc-shaped groove parts of the second connecting arms at both ends are tilted toward the end away from the first connecting arm and undergo elastic deformation until the card slot on the connecting column corresponds to the connecting block, the squeezing force on the connecting block disappears, the second connecting arm rebounds, the connecting block is engaged with the card slot, and at the same time the arc-shaped groove firmly conflicts with the outer surface of the connecting column, so that the connection between the decorative part and the side cover is firm and tight, and is not easy to loosen, fall off or make abnormal noises due to the bumps and vibrations of the vehicle.

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] Reference Figure 1-5 As shown, the high-strength side cover includes a side cover body 1, a decoration piece installation area 3 for installing a decoration piece 2 is provided at the bottom end of the front end face of the side cover body 1, a mounting protrusion 4 is symmetrically provided on the rear end face of the decoration piece installation area 3, a mounting hole 5 which passes through the side cover is opened on the mounting protrusion 4, a positioning groove 6 which is connected to the mounting hole 5 is provided on the front end face of the decoration piece installation area 3, and a first connecting arm 7 with an arc-shaped cross-section is symmetrically provided at the upper and lower ends of the mounting hole 5 on the rear end face of the mounting protrusion 4, a second connecting arm 8 which is arranged vertically is provided at the corresponding end of the two first connecting arms 7, an arc-shaped groove 9 which matches the mounting hole 5 is opened at the corresponding end of the two second connecting arms 8, a plurality of connecting blocks 10 are annularly arranged inside the arc-shaped groove 9, a positioning column 201 which matches the positioning groove 6 is provided on the rear end face of the positioning column 201, a connecting column 202 which matches the mounting hole 5 is opened on the connecting column 202 At the same time, the arc groove 9 firmly contacts the outer surface of the connecting post 202, so that the connection between the decorative piece 2 and the side cover is firm and tight, and it is not easy to loosen, fall off, or make abnormal noise due to the bumps and vibrations of the vehicle.
[0021] Preferably, the positioning column 201 passes through the side cover body 1 and the mounting protrusion 4 and extends to the rear of the second connecting arm 8. After the connecting block 10 is engaged with the slot 203, the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 9 applies a clamping force to the outer surface of the connecting column 202. The arc-shaped groove 9 between the two connecting arms 8 fits tightly with the outer surface of the connecting column 202, reducing the assembly gap and making the connection between the connecting column 202 and the mounting hole 5 stable and firm.
[0022] Preferably, edge reinforcement ribs 11 are provided on the outer periphery of the front end surface of the side cover body 1. The edge reinforcement ribs 11 increase the wall thickness at the edge of the side cover body, thereby increasing its structural strength and rigidity.
[0023] Preferably, a reinforcing protrusion 12 is provided above the decorative component installation area 3 , and a heat dissipation vent 13 is provided on the reinforcing protrusion 12 .
