[0052] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.
[0053] Please see Figures 1 to 13The application provides a flip structure 10, which comprises a connecting rod assembly 111 and a flip assembly 113. The connecting rod assembly 111 has a first position and a second position, and the flip assembly 113 is connected with the connecting rod assembly 111, and the connecting rod assembly 111 is linked with the flip assembly 113.
[0054] The application realizes the linkage of the connecting rod assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 through a mechanical structure, and does not need to control the opening and closing of the convertible top in a mode that the connecting rod assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 are separately driven, thereby reducing the dependence of the flip structure 10 on a motor and an electric control switch, and facilitating the production and assembly of the flip structure 10.
[0055] In the application, when the connecting rod assembly 111 is in the first position, the convertible top is in a storage state; and when the connecting rod assembly 111 is in the second position, the convertible top is in an unfolded state.
[0056] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of the application, the connecting rod assembly 111 is linked with the flip assembly 113 in the process of switching from the first position to the second position.
[0057] In some embodiments of the application, the flip structure 10 further comprises a fixing assembly 112, and the connecting rod assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 are rotationally connected with the fixing assembly 112, and the connecting rod assembly 111 is connected with the flip assembly 113 through the fixing assembly 112.
[0058] The application connects the connecting rod assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 through the fixing assembly 112 and drives the flip assembly 113 to rotate through the connecting rod assembly 111, that is, the application realizes the rotation of the connecting rod assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 through a mechanical structure, and does not need to control the opening and closing of the convertible top in a mode that the connecting rod assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 are separately driven, thereby reducing the dependence of the flip structure 10 on a motor and an electric control switch, improving the mechanism reliability of the flip structure 10, and thereby facilitating the production and assembly of the flip structure 10.
[0059] In addition, the flip assembly 113, the connecting rod assembly 111 and the fixing assembly 112 cooperate with each other, when the connecting rod assembly 111 rotates around the fixing assembly 112, the flip assembly 113 moves out of the original position under the driving of the connecting rod assembly 111, so as to avoid the structural interference between the flip assembly 113 and the connecting rod assembly 111, realize the spatial avoidance of the flip assembly 113 and the connecting rod assembly 111, and ensure that the convertible top can be smoothly opened.
[0060] In some embodiments of the present application, the linkage assembly 111 is directly fixedly connected with the flip assembly 113, i.e., the linkage assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113 can be directly connected without the fixed assembly 112 to realize linkage between the linkage assembly 111 and the flip assembly 113. In this way, the structure of the flip structure 10 can be simplified.
[0061] Correspondingly, in the process of switching the linkage assembly 111 from the second position to the first position, the linkage assembly 111 can manually drive the flip assembly 113 to switch from the fourth position to the third position, or the linkage assembly 111 can drive the flip assembly 113 to switch from the fourth position to the third position through the reset member 50.
[0062] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of the present application, in the process of switching the linkage assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the linkage assembly 111 abuts against and can slide on the flip assembly 113 to drive the flip assembly 113 to rotate.
[0063] Please continue to refer to Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments of the present application, the linkage assembly 111 includes a main linkage 1112, an auxiliary linkage 1113, and a driving member 1111, one end of the main linkage 1112 is rotationally connected with the fixed assembly 112, the auxiliary linkage 1113 is connected with the main linkage 1112, and the driving member 1111 is connected with the auxiliary linkage 1113; in the process of switching the linkage assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the driving member 1111 abuts against and can slide on the flip assembly 113. By adding the auxiliary linkage 1113 to the main linkage 1112 of the linkage assembly 111, and adding the driving member 1111 to the auxiliary linkage 1113, and making the driving member 1111 abut against the flip assembly 113. In this way, when the main linkage 1112 is rotated to switch the linkage assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the driving member 1111 contacts the flip assembly 113 and generates a pushing force, and the main linkage 1112 and the auxiliary linkage 1113 can drive the driving member 1111 to slide on the flip assembly 113 to drive the flip assembly 113 to rotate in the forward direction of the vehicle.
[0064] In the first position of the linkage assembly 111, the main linkage 1112 is folded, and the convertible top is in a storage state; in the second position of the linkage assembly 111, the main linkage 1112 is unfolded, and the convertible top is in an unfolded state.
[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, the driving member 1111 is rotationally connected with the auxiliary linkage 1113, and the driving member 1111 rolls on the flip assembly 113. In this way, the driving member 1111 can continuously drive the flip assembly to rotate, and the abrasion between the driving member 1111 and the flip assembly 113 can be reduced.
[0066] In some embodiments of the application, the flip cover assembly 113 comprises a connecting rod 1132 and a flip cover 1133, one end of the connecting rod 1132 is connected with the fixing assembly 112, and the flip cover 1133 is connected with the other end of the connecting rod 1132; during the switching of the connecting rod assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the driving part 1111 abuts against the connecting rod 1132 and can slide on the connecting rod 1132. The flip cover 1133 and the fixing assembly 112 are connected through the connecting rod 1132, so that the driving part 1111 can abut against the connecting rod 1132 and slide on the connecting rod 1132, to realize the spatial avoidance of the flip cover assembly 113 and the connecting rod assembly 111.
[0067] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments of the application, during the switching of the connecting rod assembly 111 from the second position to the first position, the reset part 15 (see below) drives the connecting rod 1132 to rotate reversely by the restoring force of the reset part 15, the driving part 1111 reversely slides on the connecting rod 1132, and the connecting rod 1132 drives the connecting rod assembly 111 to rotate reversely. In this way, it is beneficial to switch the convertible top from the unfolded state to the stowed state, and the connecting rod assembly 111 switches from the second position to the first position.
[0068] Please refer to Figures 4 to 7 In some embodiments of the application, the fixing assembly 112 extends along a first direction Z; during the switching of the connecting rod assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the orthographic projection of the driving part 1111 on a plane formed by a second direction X and a third direction Y perpendicular to the first direction Z at least partially falls on the connecting rod 1132. In this way, when the driving part 1111 abuts against the connecting rod 1132, the connecting rod 1132 can receive the pushing force given by the driving part 1111 in the first direction Z and the front direction of the vehicle, to drive the connecting rod 1132 to rotate.
[0069] In this embodiment, the first direction Z is the height direction of the vehicle, the second direction X is the length direction of the vehicle, and the third direction Y is the width direction of the vehicle.
[0070] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments of the application, the connecting rod 1132 has an abutting surface 11321, and during the switching of the connecting rod assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the abutting surface 11321 abuts against the driving part 1111; wherein at least part of the abutting surface 11321 is a curved surface; or when the connecting rod assembly 111 is in the first position, the abutting surface 11321 is inclined relative to the first direction Z. In this way, when the driving part 1111 abuts against the connecting rod 1132, the connecting rod 1132 can receive the pushing force given by the driving part 1111 in the first direction Z and the front direction of the vehicle, to better drive the connecting rod 1132 to rotate.
[0071] When at least part of the abutting surface 11321 is a curved surface, the abutting surface 11321 can be inclined or not inclined with respect to the first direction Z when the linkage assembly 111 is in the first position.
[0072] When the abutting surface 11321 can be inclined with respect to the first direction Z when the linkage assembly 111 is in the first position, the abutting surface 11321 can be a curved surface or a flat surface.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 7 In some embodiments of the present application, the fixing assembly 112 includes a first fixing member 1121, which is rotatably connected with the linkage assembly 111 and the flip cover assembly 113. The fixing member 1121 is used to integrate the linkage assembly 111 and the flip cover assembly 113 into one element, and the two are arranged adjacent to each other and rotatably connected with the first fixing member 1121, which is conducive to the rotation of the linkage assembly 111 and the flip cover assembly 113, and provides a prerequisite for the linkage assembly 111 to drive the flip cover assembly 113 to rotate.
[0074] Please refer to Figures 7 to 11 In some embodiments of the present application, the flip cover assembly 113 has a third position and a fourth position; when the linkage assembly 111 is in the first position, the flip cover assembly 113 is in the third position; when the linkage assembly 111 is in the second position, the flip cover assembly 113 is in the fourth position. During the process of switching the linkage assembly 111 from the first position to the second position, the linkage assembly 111 drives the flip cover assembly to switch from the third position to the fourth position. The fixing assembly 112 further includes a second fixing member 114, which is fixed on the first fixing member 1121, and the flip cover assembly 113 is fixedly connected with the second fixing member 114. The flip cover structure 10 further includes a reset member 115, one end of which is connected with the fixing assembly 112, and the other end is connected with the first fixing member 1121; the reset member 115 drives the flip cover assembly 113 to switch from the fourth position to the third position.
[0075] Since the pushing force between the linkage assembly 111 and the flip cover assembly 113 is exerted by the rotation of the linkage assembly 111, when the linkage assembly 111 rotates in the opposite direction, the linkage assembly 111 and the flip cover assembly 113 do not contact, and cannot provide force in the opposite direction, so a reset member 115 is arranged on the fixing assembly 112, one end of which is connected with the second fixing member 114, and the other end is connected with the first fixing member 1121, the reset member 115 provides a reset force to drive the flip cover assembly 113 to rotate in the opposite direction, i.e. the flip cover assembly 113 switches from the fourth position to the third position, and the flip cover assembly 113 drives the linkage assembly 111 to rotate in the opposite direction, the driving member 1111 slides on the connecting rod 1132 in the opposite direction, and the linkage assembly 111 drives the convertible top to change from the unfolded state to the stored state.
[0076] In some embodiments of the present application, the reset member 115 is a spring. The spring itself has elastic force. When the link assembly 111 is switched from the first position to the second position, the link assembly 111 rotates and drives the flip cover assembly 113 to rotate. Since the flip cover assembly 113 is fixedly connected with the second fixed member 114 and the reset member 115 is fixedly connected with the second fixed member 114, the flip cover assembly 113 drives the second fixed member 114 to rotate, the second fixed member 114 drives the reset member 115 to rotate, and the second reset member 115 continuously accumulates torsional force. When the convertible top needs to change from the unfolded state to the storage state, the flip cover assembly 113 returns to the third position from the fourth position under the action of the second reset member 115. During this period, the flip cover assembly 113 drives the link assembly 111 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the link assembly 111 drives the convertible top to change from the unfolded state to the storage state.
[0077] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figures 9 to 11 In some embodiments of the present application, the second fixed member 114 includes a rotating shaft 1140. One end of the rotating shaft 1140 is connected with the flip cover assembly 113, and the other end is connected with the reset member 115. The reset member 115 is wound on the rotating shaft 1140. In this way, the reset member 115 can be fixed with the flip cover assembly 113, and the structure is simple.
[0078] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 10 In some embodiments of the present application, one end of the rotating shaft 1140 has an anti-rotation part 1141. The end of the flip cover assembly 113 connected with the second fixed member 114 has a key groove 1131. The anti-rotation part 1141 cooperates with the key groove 1131 to connect the flip cover assembly 113 and the second fixed member 114 and prevent the flip cover assembly 113 and the second fixed member 114 from rotating.
[0079] In some embodiments of the present application, the end of the rotating shaft 1140 away from the anti-rotation part 1141 also has a clamping part 1142. One end of the reset member 115 cooperates with the clamping part 1142 to be connected with the second fixed member 114.
[0080] In some embodiments of the present application, the second fixed member 114 further includes a driven member 1143 fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft 1140. The flip cover structure 10 further includes a speed regulation structure 30 detachably fixed to the first fixed member 1121 and located on one side of the driven member 1143. The speed regulation structure 30 cooperates with the driven member 1143 to control the reset movement of the flip cover assembly 113.
[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, the speed regulating structure 30 comprises a damping member 117 engaged with the driven member 1143. By engaging the damping member 117 with the driven member 1143, the damping member 117 can be used to exert a damping force on the rotating shaft 1140 of the second fixing member 114, and further exert a damping force on the reset member 115, so as to adjust the reset movement of the flip cover assembly 113, slow down the reset speed of the flip cover assembly 113 under the reset force of the reset member 115, and prevent the structure from being damaged due to the fast movement of the flip cover assembly 113.
[0082] In some embodiments of the present application, the speed regulating structure 30 further comprises a third fixing member 116 detachably fixed on the first fixing member 1121 and located on one side of the driven member 1143; and the damping member 117 is arranged on the third fixing member 116 and can rotate around the third fixing member 116. By detachably fixing the third fixing member 116 on the first fixing member 1121 and arranging the damping member 117 on the third fixing member 116, the position of the third fixing member 116 on the first fixing member 1121 has a certain degree of freedom, the installation position of the third fixing member 116 (the damping member 117) can be fine-tuned, and further the damping force of the damping member 117 on the rotating shaft 1140 of the second fixing member 114 can be adjusted according to actual needs, so as to further adjust the reset movement of the reset member 115 on the flip cover assembly 113.
[0083] In some embodiments of the present application, the damping member 117 is a damping gear, the driven member 1143 is a gear, and the second fixing member 114 is a gear member with a rotating shaft.
[0084] In some embodiments of the present application, the flip cover assembly 113 rotates, drives the rotating shaft 1140 to rotate, and further drives the driven member 1143 to rotate, and the driven member 1143 drives the damping member 117 to rotate, and the damping member 117 exerts a certain damping force on the driven member 1143.
