[0034] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used herein is only to describe an association relationship of associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which can represent the three cases of A alone, A and B together, and B alone. In addition, the character " / " herein generally represents that the front and rear associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0035] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The embodiment of the application provides a roof assembly, which comprises a sunroof framework 1 and a roof lining assembly. The sunroof framework 1 is provided with a mounting hole 11. The roof lining assembly comprises a roof lining body 2 and a mounting bracket 3 fixed to the roof lining body 2. The mounting bracket 3 comprises a clamping structure 31, which is clamped in the mounting hole 11, so that the roof lining body 2 is connected to the sunroof framework 1 through the mounting bracket 3.

[0036] The sunroof framework 1 can be made of plastic, cast aluminum or steel. The use of plastic or cast aluminum and the like is conducive to the lightweight of the sunroof framework 1. For the sunroof framework 1 made of plastic, it can be processed by injection molding. For the sunroof framework 1 made of cast aluminum or steel, it can be processed by casting or machining. The mounting bracket 3 can be adhesively connected to the roof lining body 2, or the mounting bracket 3 can be embedded in the roof lining body 2. The material of the clamping structure 31 on the mounting bracket 3 can be plastic or metal with good elastic deformation capability, so as to facilitate the cooperation of the clamping structure 31 and the mounting hole 11.

[0037] Compared with the scheme of directly arranging the clamping structure on the sunroof framework or the roof lining body, the clamping structure 31 is arranged on the mounting bracket 3 in the embodiment of the application, and the mounting bracket 3 is fixedly connected to the roof lining body 2, which is conducive to improving the stability of the arrangement of the clamping structure 31, so as to ensure the stable and reliable cooperation of the clamping structure 31 and the mounting hole 11 of the sunroof framework 1. At the same time, the clamping reliability between the clamping structure 31 and the mounting hole 11 is high, which is almost not affected by external factors such as high temperature or low temperature, so that the roof lining body 2 is fixed more firmly, that is, the stability and reliability of the connection between the roof lining body 2 and the sunroof framework 1 are improved, and the possibility of the roof lining body 2 being separated from the sunroof framework 1 is reduced.

[0038] As shown in Figures 2 to 4 In a possible implementation, the sunroof framework 1 comprises a mounting portion 12, the mounting hole 11 is arranged in the mounting portion 12, the clamping structure 31 comprises a clamping portion 311, the clamping portion 311 comprises a clamping segment 3111 and a limiting segment 3112 connected to the clamping segment 3111, the clamping segment 3111 is clamped in the mounting hole 11, the limiting segment 3112 is located outside the mounting hole 11, and the limiting segment 3112 is used for abutting against the mounting portion 12 to limit the position of the clamping portion 311.

[0039] The mounting hole 11 can be a square hole. The engaging section 3111 of the engaging portion 311 is located within the mounting hole 11 and cooperates with the mounting hole 11 to achieve the connection between the top lining body 2 and the sunroof skeleton 1. After the engaging section 3111 cooperates with the mounting hole 11, the limiting section 3112 can play a limiting role, reducing the possibility of the engaging section 3111 disengaging from the mounting hole 11, that is, reducing the possibility of the engaging failure between the engaging portion 311 and the mounting hole 11, thereby reducing the possibility of the top lining body 2 falling off from the sunroof skeleton 1.

[0040] As Figure 4 shown, in some embodiments, the limiting section 3112 can have a bent structure. Specifically, the shape of the limiting section 3112 is approximately in the shape of a "mouth" character to improve the limiting effect of the limiting section 3112.

[0041] As Figure 5 shown, in a possible implementation manner, the engaging portion 311 includes a cavity 3113, and the cavity 3113 is located between the engaging section 3111 and the limiting section 3112.

[0042] By providing the cavity 3113, space can be provided for the elastic deformation of the engaging portion 311, which is beneficial to enabling the engaging portion 311 to extend into the mounting hole 11 and cooperate stably and reliably with the mounting hole 11, so that the top lining body 2 is firmly fixed on the sunroof skeleton 1. At the same time, it can also reduce the weight of the mounting bracket 3, that is, achieve the lightweight design of the mounting bracket 3.

[0043] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, in a possible implementation manner, the mounting bracket 3 further includes a bracket body 32. The bracket body 32 is fixedly connected to the top lining body 2. The engaging structure 31 includes a connecting portion 312. One end of the connecting portion 312 is connected to the engaging portion 311, and the other end of the connecting portion 312 is connected to the bracket body 32.

[0044] The connecting portion 312 can be integrally formed with the engaging portion 311. The connecting portion 312 and the bracket body 32 can be fixedly connected by means of threaded connection, welding, snap connection, etc. By providing the connecting portion 312, the connection between the engaging portion 311 and the bracket body 32 is achieved, and the stability and reliability of the connection between the engaging portion 311 and the bracket body 32 can be improved, that is, the stability and reliability of the engaging structure 31 provided on the bracket body 32 can be improved.

[0045] As Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown in a possible implementation, the connecting portion 312 includes a first connecting segment 3121 and a second connecting segment 3122 connected with the first connecting segment 3121, and the first connecting segment 3121 and the second connecting segment 3122 have a clamping space 3123 therebetween, and the connecting portion 312 is clamped with the bracket body 32 through the clamping space 3123.

[0046] The first connecting segment 3121 and the second connecting segment 3122 can be arranged along the height direction of the clamping structure 31, and the first connecting segment 3121 and the second connecting segment 3122 have the clamping space 3123 therebetween, that is, the first connecting segment 3121 and the second connecting segment 3122 can form a clamping structure, so that the connecting portion 312 is clamped on the bracket body 32, that is, the connecting portion 312 is clamped on the bracket body 32 by the clamping force between the first connecting segment 3121 and the second connecting segment 3122.

[0047] The above design improves the stability and reliability of the connection between the clamping structure 31 and the bracket body 32, reduces the possibility of the clamping structure 31 falling off the bracket body 32, and thus improves the stability and reliability of the cooperation between the clamping structure 31 and the mounting hole 11, so as to ensure that the top cover body 2 is firmly fixed on the sunroof framework 1.

[0048] As Figures 3 to 5 shown, in a possible implementation, the connecting portion 312 is arranged at both ends of the clamping portion 311 respectively, and the bracket body 32 is provided with a clamping hole 321, and the side walls at both ends of the clamping hole 321 are clamped with the corresponding connecting portion 312 respectively.

[0049] The connecting portion 312 at both ends of the clamping portion 311 is clamped on the side wall of the clamping hole 321 through the respective clamping space 3123. By arranging the connecting portion 312 at both ends of the clamping portion 311, the stability of the clamping structure 31 arranged on the bracket body 32 is further improved, and the possibility of the clamping structure 31 falling off the bracket body 32 is reduced.

[0050] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, in a possible implementation, the mounting bracket 3 further includes a bracket body 32, the bracket body 32 is fixedly connected with the top cover body 2, and the clamping portion 311 is integrally formed with the bracket body 32.

[0051] The clamping portion 311 can be formed by stamping process and profiling process of the bracket body 32. The design of the clamping portion 311 being integrated with the bracket body 32 improves the stability of the structure of the mounting bracket 3, so as to facilitate the stable and reliable cooperation between the clamping portion 311 and the mounting hole 11, and at the same time, the structure of the mounting bracket 3 is improved, the lightweight design of the mounting bracket 3 is realized, and the production cost of the mounting bracket 3 is reduced.

[0052] AsFigure 3 As shown, in one possible embodiment, the bracket body 32 includes a protrusion 322, and a locking structure 31 is disposed on the protrusion 322. The protrusion 322 helps increase the structural strength of the bracket body 32, and the locking structure 31 is disposed on the protrusion 322 to improve its reliability. It also facilitates a stable and reliable fit between the locking structure 31 and the mounting hole 11.

[0053] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, in one possible implementation, the mounting bracket 3 includes multiple engaging structures 31 arranged circumferentially along the mounting bracket 3, and the sunroof frame 1 has multiple mounting holes 11, with each mounting hole 11 corresponding to one of the engaging structures 31.

[0054] Multiple engaging structures 31 can be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the mounting bracket 3, with the positions of the mounting holes 11 corresponding one-to-one with the positions of the engaging structures 31, ensuring that each engaging structure 31 can engage with its corresponding mounting hole 11. By arranging multiple engaging structures 31 along the circumference of the mounting bracket 3, the stability and reliability of the connection between the roof liner body 2 and the skylight frame 1 are further improved, reducing the possibility of the roof liner body 2 becoming loose or falling directly off the skylight frame.

[0055] This application provides a vehicle, which includes the roof assembly described in any of the above claims.

[0056] Since the roof assembly can achieve the above-mentioned technical effects, vehicles with this roof assembly can also achieve the above-mentioned technical effects, which will not be elaborated here.

[0057] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
