[0041] The vent cover is a crucial component of the vehicle body structure. Installed at the bottom of the dash panel and connected between the front windshield and the engine hood, it provides sealing, water diversion, ventilation, and decorative functions throughout the vehicle. However, in related art, the vent cover requires numerous air intake holes to meet air conditioning intake requirements. These holes can cause water to enter the vehicle interior, leading to water leakage and a reduced user experience.

[0042] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a ventilation cover assembly and a vehicle.

[0043] The ventilation cover assembly of the present application is described below.

[0044] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , Figure 1 A perspective view of a ventilation cover assembly provided for some embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 A partial perspective view of a ventilation cover assembly provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 A partial schematic diagram of a ventilation cover assembly provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 Exploded view of the ventilation cover assembly provided in some embodiments of the present application. The ventilation cover assembly 100 includes a cover body 1, a water distributor 2, a water outlet pipe 3 and an air conditioning inlet pipe 4.

[0045] The cover body 1 has a plurality of air inlet holes 11. Here, "plurality" means that the number of air inlet holes 11 on the cover body 1 is two or more. The plurality of air inlet holes 11 can meet the air intake requirements of the air conditioner.

[0046] The water separator 2 is connected to the cover body 1. For example, the water separator 2 and the cover body 1 can be connected by foam, thereby increasing the sealing between the water separator 2 and the cover body 1 and preventing water from flowing into the vehicle interior from the connection between the water separator 2 and the cover body 1.

[0047] The water divider 2 may have a drainage space that is connected to the air inlet 11. Specifically, the top of the drainage space may have an opening, and a ventilation cover may be provided at the opening. The orthographic projection of the air inlet 11 on the plane where the drainage space is located may be located within the drainage space, so that water flowing in from the air inlet 11 can flow directly into the drainage space.

[0048] The bottom wall of the drainage space may be provided with a drain port 22, so that water flowing into the drainage space can be discharged from the drainage space through the drain port 22. For example, the bottom wall of the drainage space may have an inclined angle so that water can flow toward the drain port 22 better.

[0049] One end of the water outlet pipe 3 is connected to the drain port 22, and the other end extends away from the water distributor 2. The water outlet pipe 3 can be used to drain the water from the drainage space, making the vehicle's structural layout more reasonable. The water outlet pipe 3 can also be used to define the installation position of the water distributor 2.

[0050] Exemplarily, the drain port 22 can be located at the edge of the drainage space. This arrangement allows the vehicle to be better laid out and is also beneficial to the arrangement and drainage of the water outlet pipe 3.

[0051] An air inlet 21 is provided on the sidewall of the drainage space. Specifically, air can flow into the drainage space through the air inlet 11 and then flow from the drainage space to the air inlet 21, thereby meeting the air intake requirements of the air conditioner. Furthermore, a gap is provided between the air inlet 21 and the bottom wall of the drainage space to prevent water from flowing from the drainage space to the air inlet 21.

[0052] The air conditioning intake pipe 4 is provided at the air inlet 21 and is detachably connected to the water distributor 2. This facilitates replacement and repair of the air conditioning intake pipe 4, thereby improving the maintainability of the vehicle and facilitating assembly of other components, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0053] According to the ventilated cover assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present application, by providing a water divider 2, the drainage space of the water divider 2 is connected to the air inlet 11, and a drain port 22 is provided on the bottom wall of the drainage space, as well as a water outlet pipe 3 connected to the drain port 22, so that water flowing in from the air inlet 11 can be discharged from the vehicle, thereby avoiding the problem of vehicle water leakage, thereby improving the user experience. It can also reduce the use of foam, thereby helping to reduce the manufacturing cost of the vehicle. In addition, by providing the air inlet on the side wall of the water divider 2, water can be prevented from flowing into the air inlet, thereby helping to improve the reliability of vehicle use.

[0054] See also Figure 4-Figure 6 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the connection between the water outlet pipe and the sheet metal provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 6 for Figure 5 Schematic cross-section at point A in the figure. In some embodiments, the vent cover assembly 100 may further include a sheet metal member 5. One end of the outlet pipe 3 is detachably connected to the sheet metal member 5, and the other end is fixedly connected to the water distributor 2. Specifically, one end of the outlet pipe 3 can be detachably connected to the sheet metal member 5 by means of a snap connection, fastener connection, etc., while the other end can be fixedly connected to the water distributor 2 by means of welding, gluing, etc.

[0055] Therefore, when assembling the ventilation cover assembly 100, the water outlet pipe 3 can be connected to the sheet metal 5 first, and then the water distributor 2 can be connected. The water outlet pipe 3 can limit the installation position of the water distributor 2, and it is also convenient for the operator to assemble, which is beneficial to improve the assembly efficiency of the ventilation cover assembly 100.

[0056] Please continue reading Figure 4-Figure 6In some embodiments, a first clamping member 51 may be provided on the sheet metal part 5. A first connecting member 31 and a second clamping member 32 are provided on opposite sides of the water outlet pipe 3. The first connecting member 31 and the sheet metal part 5 can be connected by a first fastener, and the second clamping member 32 and the first clamping member 51 can be clamped and matched. The first fastener can be a bolt. Therefore, when assembling the water outlet pipe 3, the water outlet pipe 3 can be pre-fixed by the cooperation between the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 32, and then the water outlet pipe 3 can be connected to the sheet metal part 5 by the first connecting member 31, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of assembly, and further conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the vehicle, and the structure is simple, which is conducive to reducing the manufacturing cost of the vehicle. At the same time, the stability of the connection between the water outlet pipe 3 and the sheet metal part 5 can also be guaranteed.

[0057] For example, the first connecting member 31 can be a flange that bends upwardly on the outlet pipe 3, the second clamping member 32 can be a latching tongue, and the first clamping member 51 can be a slot that cooperates with the latching tongue. The drain pipe can be formed by injection molding, which helps improve the assembly efficiency of the vent cover assembly 100.

[0058] Please continue reading Figure 4-Figure 6 In some embodiments, the outlet pipe 3 can be connected to the water distributor 2 by bonding. Thus, the outlet pipe 3 can be fixed first, and then an adhesive can be applied to the surface of the outlet pipe 3. The water distributor 2 can then be directly connected to the adhesive. This can reduce the difficulty of assembling the water distributor 2 and improve the assembly efficiency of the vent cover assembly 100.

[0059] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the connection between the air-conditioning intake pipe and the sheet metal part provided in some embodiments of the present application. Figure 8 for Figure 7 Cross-sectional view at point B in the figure. In some embodiments, second connectors 41 may be provided on opposite sides of the air conditioning intake duct 4. The second connectors 41 and the sheet metal member 5 may be connected via second fasteners. Thus, the air conditioning intake duct 4 and the sheet metal member 5 can be connected via the second fasteners, simplifying the structure and reducing assembly difficulty.

[0060] Please continue reading Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, a felt is provided at the connection between the air conditioning intake duct 4 and the sheet metal member 5. Thus, the felt can absorb incoming water, thereby preventing water from flowing into the vehicle interior. The interference fit between the felt and the sheet metal member 5 can prevent sealing problems, thereby improving vehicle safety.

The plurality of third connecting members 23 may be spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the water divider 2. The third connecting member 23 is connected to the sheet metal member 5 via a third fastener. Specifically, the water divider 2 can be connected to the sheet metal member 5 via bolts and welded nuts. This simple connection method is conducive to reducing the difficulty of connecting the water divider 2 to the sheet metal member 5, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the vehicle and facilitating the maintenance of the water divider 2.

[0062] Please continue reading Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the air inlet 21 may be provided with multiple screw posts 24. The air conditioning intake pipe 4 is connected to the manifold 2 via these screw posts 24. Specifically, the screw posts 24 may be spaced apart circumferentially around the air inlet 21. This arrangement facilitates the connection between the air conditioning intake pipe 4 and the manifold 2, reduces the difficulty of assembling the vent cover assembly 100, and thereby improves vehicle assembly efficiency.
