Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to vehicle body structures, in particular to a vehicle body structure in a front panel area and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] In the current market, the layout of the car's front panel generally adopts the idea of ​​offset air conditioning assembly or split air conditioning, among which:

[0003] When developing right-hand drive vehicles with offset air conditioning, the driver's foot and knee room are limited. This requires symmetrical design of the offset air conditioning, which requires the design of new components such as the air conditioning housing, dash panel, instrument panel frame, and air ducts. This increases component costs, development expenses, and development cycle time. Furthermore, offset air conditioning also causes the main body of the air conditioner to tilt toward the passenger side, thereby compressing the passenger's knee room.

[0004] The split air conditioner is partly outside the cockpit and partly inside the cockpit, which takes up the layout space outside the cockpit. While increasing the number of components, it also reduces the spatial flexibility of the entire vehicle. Moreover, since it occupies the space outside the cockpit, in order to ensure sufficient space in the front cabin, the front panel will move backward, squeezing the overall space of the driver and co-driver, making the comfort in the cabin worse. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a body structure and car with a dash panel area that is convenient for the development of right-hand drive models and has good cabin comfort, in order to address the problems of the current layout of the car dash panel position, which limits the development of right-hand drive models and has poor cabin comfort.

[0008] In one embodiment, the air duct assembly includes a face-blowing air duct, a face-blowing air outlet is provided on the top of the air-conditioning assembly, the air inlet of the face-blowing air duct is correspondingly connected to the face-blowing air outlet, and the face-blowing air duct is symmetrically arranged with the XOZ plane at the zero point position of the Y-axis as the center to form four air outlets.

[0009] In one embodiment, the blower and the evaporator in the air conditioning assembly are arranged up and down along the Z-axis.

[0010] In one embodiment, the body structure in the front panel area also includes a front defrost upper body, and a defrost air outlet is also provided on the top of the air-conditioning assembly. The defrost air outlet is located in front of the blowing air outlet along the X-axis direction, and the air inlet of the front defrost upper body is correspondingly connected to the defrost air outlet.

[0011] In one embodiment, the face air outlet and the defrost air outlet are both located at the Y-axis zero position.

[0012] In one embodiment, the front defrost upper body is symmetrically arranged with the XOZ plane at the Y-axis zero point position as the center.

[0013] In one embodiment, the air duct assembly includes a foot-blowing air duct, which includes two front foot-blowing air ducts and two rear foot-blowing air ducts. The air-conditioning assembly is symmetrically provided with two front foot-blowing air outlets on two sides along the Y-axis direction, and the air-conditioning assembly is symmetrically provided with two rear foot-blowing air outlets on the bottom surface.

[0017] A second aspect of the present application provides an automobile, comprising the above-mentioned dash panel area body structure.

[0018] The above-mentioned body structure in the front panel area opens the air inlet at the Y-axis zero point position of the front panel assembly, so that the air-conditioning assembly can be set at the Y-axis zero point position, thereby avoiding the air-conditioning assembly from occupying the space on both sides of the Y-axis, improving the space utilization in the cockpit, and improving driving comfort.

[0032] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3As shown, the present application first provides a vehicle body structure in the front panel area, including a front panel assembly 10, an air-conditioning assembly 20 and an air duct assembly 30. The air-conditioning assembly 20 is arranged on the rear side of the front panel assembly 10 along the X-axis direction and is located at the Y-axis zero point position; the Y-axis zero point of the front panel assembly 10 is also provided with an air inlet hole 11, and the air inlet 21 of the air-conditioning assembly 20 is directly opposite to the air inlet hole 11. The air outlets of the air-conditioning assembly 20 are symmetrically arranged with the XOZ plane at the Y-axis zero point position as the center, and the air ducts of the air duct assembly 30 correspond to and are connected to the air outlets one by one.

[0033] In the present application, the air inlet 11 is opened at the Y-axis zero point position of the front panel assembly 10, so that the air-conditioning assembly 20 can be set at the Y-axis zero point position, so as to avoid the air-conditioning assembly 20 occupying the space on both sides of the Y-axis, thereby improving the space utilization in the cockpit and improving driving comfort. At the same time, the air outlets of the air-conditioning assembly 20 are symmetrically arranged, so that the air ducts of the air duct assembly 30 can be designed to be symmetrical on the left and right, so as to improve the commonality of left and right drive models.

[0034] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the air duct assembly 30 includes a face-blowing air duct 31, and a face-blowing air outlet 22 is provided on the top of the air-conditioning assembly 20. The air inlet of the face-blowing air duct 31 is correspondingly connected to the face-blowing air outlet 22, and the face-blowing air duct 31 is symmetrically arranged with the XOZ plane at the zero point position of the Y-axis as the center to form four air outlets.

[0035] Specifically, the face-blowing air duct 31 extends from the face-blowing air outlet 22 to both sides of the Y-axis and is designed symmetrically, so as to take into account the glove box space of the left and right rudders.

[0036] In some embodiments, the blower and evaporator in the air-conditioning assembly 20 are arranged up and down along the Z-axis direction; compared with the traditional left-right arrangement, arranging the blower and evaporator up and down can save space in the X- and Y-directions, thereby further increasing the space in the cockpit and improving driving comfort.

[0037] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the body structure in the front panel area also includes a front defrost upper body 40, and a defrost air outlet 23 is also provided on the top of the air-conditioning assembly 20. The defrost air outlet 23 is located in front of the blowing air outlet 22 along the X-axis direction, and the air inlet of the front defrost upper body 40 is correspondingly connected to the defrost air outlet 23.

[0038] Specifically, in some embodiments, the face air outlet 22 and the defrost air outlet 23 are both located at the zero point of the Y axis.

[0039] More specifically, the front defrost upper body 40 is symmetrically arranged with the XOZ plane at the Y-axis zero point as the center. Since the air-conditioning assembly 20 and the defrost outlet 23 are both located at the Y-axis zero point, the front defrost upper body 40 can be designed to be left-right symmetrical, taking into account the left and right rudders at the same time to improve the universality.

[0040] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the air duct assembly 30 includes a foot-blowing air duct 32, which includes two front foot-blowing air ducts 321 and two rear foot-blowing air ducts 322. The air conditioning assembly 20 has two front foot-blowing air outlets 24 symmetrically provided on two sides along the Y-axis direction, and two rear foot-blowing air outlets 25 symmetrically provided on the bottom surface of the air conditioning assembly 20.

[0041] The two front foot-blowing air ducts 321 are correspondingly connected to the two front foot-blowing air outlets 24, the two rear foot-blowing air ducts 322 are correspondingly connected to the two rear foot-blowing air outlets 25, and the two rear foot-blowing air ducts 322 are symmetrically arranged with the XOZ plane at the zero point of the Y axis as the center.

[0042] By designing the two rear foot-blowing air ducts 322 to be symmetrical on the left and right, while taking into account the boundaries between the left and right rudders, a universal design is implemented for both left and right rudder models, which improves the commonality of parts while shortening the development cycle, reducing the cost per unit and the overall cost investment.

[0043] Please combine Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the two front foot air ducts 321 are asymmetrically designed; due to the layout of the left and right rudder armrest boxes and steering columns, the front foot air ducts 321 on the left and right sides are designed differently, but they can be designed for left and right rudder models to shorten the design cycle.

[0044] Please combine Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the front panel assembly 10 is also provided with a pipeline through-hole 12, which is located near the Y-axis zero point along the Y-axis direction, and the pipeline of the air-conditioning assembly 20 passes through the pipeline through-hole 12 to the front side of the front panel assembly 10.

[0045] By opening the pipeline through hole 12 near the Y-axis zero point, the air conditioning assembly 20 and its pipelines can be prevented from occupying the space on both sides of the Y-axis direction, providing a basis for the left-right symmetrical design of other parts.

[0046] A second aspect of the present application provides an automobile, comprising the above-mentioned dash panel area body structure.

[0047] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0048] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementations of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model patent shall be determined by the appended claims.
