[0094] 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.
[0095] According to the first aspect of this application, referring to Figures 1 to 2 This application provides a mounting plate 100 for mounting a hinge 30. The mounting plate 100 includes a first support portion 110 and a second support portion 120.
[0096] The first support portion 110 is used to connect to the vehicle body on the first side S1 of the mounting plate 100; the second support portion 120 is used to connect to the vehicle body on the second side S2 of the mounting plate 100; wherein, one of the second support portion 120 and the first support portion 110 has a first mounting structure for connecting the hinge 30.
[0097] The first side S1 and the second side S2 are arranged opposite to each other, and at least a portion of the first support portion 110 is inclined relative to at least a portion of the second support portion 120. That is, the connection point of the first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120, the connection point of the first support portion 110 and the vehicle body, and the connection point of the second support portion 120 and the vehicle body form a triangular structure.
[0098] It can be understood that the relative arrangement of the first side S1 and the second side S2 means that the projection of the mounting plate 100 on a preset straight direction D1 is located between the projection outline of the first side S1 and the projection outline of the second side S2.
[0099] It should be noted that the hinge 30 of this application can be applied to the installation of the tailgate 20, side doors, engine hood, etc., on the vehicle body.
[0100] Through the above technical solution, the mounting plate 100 includes a first support portion 110 and a second support portion 120 that are inclined to each other, and the first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120 are respectively connected to the vehicle body on opposite sides of the mounting plate 100. The first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120 can support each other to effectively disperse external forces, so that the mounting plate 100 has high stability. Setting the first mounting structure for connecting the hinge 30 in the first support portion or the second support portion 120 is beneficial to improving the rigidity of the mounting point of the hinge 30 and enhancing the constraint force on the hinge 30, thereby improving the stability of the hinge 30 installation.
[0101] As an optional solution, the first support part 110 and the second support part 120 can be directly connected; or refer to Figure 1The first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120 are connected by a transition structure. For example, the transition structure may be a transition portion 180 connected between the first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120, which reduces stress concentration and improves the strength of the mounting plate 100.
[0102] In some vehicle designs, to achieve a streamlined A-class curved surface, the tailgate 20 has a more pronounced sloping rear. Therefore, a gooseneck hinge 30 is used to connect the tailgate 20 to the vehicle body. Unlike traditional hinges 30, the gooseneck hinge 30 has a longer cantilever and cannot provide sufficient restraint for the tailgate 20. When the vehicle 1 travels on bumpy roads, due to vibrations and torsion of the vehicle body, the tailgate 20 twists, sways, and sags, which can easily cause abnormal noises inside the vehicle. The sheet metal of the vehicle body where the hinge 30 is installed is also prone to permanent deformation or cracking.
[0103] In a specific embodiment of this application, the mounting plate 100 can be installed on the D-pillar or roof beam of the vehicle 1 for mounting the hinge 30 of the tailgate 20. This design significantly enhances the rigidity of the gooseneck hinge 30, improves its restraining effect on the tailgate 20, and thus improves the performance of the tailgate 20.
[0104] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The included angle α between at least a portion of the first support portion 110 and at least a portion of the second support portion 120 ranges from 40° to 125°.
[0105] For example, the first support portion 110 has a first inclined surface 111, the second support portion 120 has a second inclined surface 121, and the hinge 30 is mounted on the first inclined surface 111 or the second inclined surface 121; the included angle α between the first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120 is the included angle formed by the first inclined surface 111 and the second inclined surface 121.
[0106] It should be noted that the included angle α can be adjusted according to the arrangement of the vehicle body structure corresponding to the mounting plate 100.
[0107] By adopting this angled design, the rigidity of the mounting plate 100 is enhanced while ensuring that the mounting plate 100 has a suitable size, thus optimizing the space occupied by the mounting plate 100.
[0108] As a preferred embodiment, the included angle α between at least a portion of the first support portion 110 and at least a portion of the second support portion 120 ranges from 60° to 90°.
[0109] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The mounting plate 100 also includes a third support portion 130. At least a portion of the third support portion 130 is connected between the first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120.
[0110] By adopting this scheme, the force transmission path between the first support 110 and the second support 120 is optimized through the setting of the third support 130, thereby further improving the structural strength of the mounting plate 100.
[0111] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The third support 130 is also configured to connect the first support 110 and / or the second support 120 to the vehicle body on the third side S3 of the mounting plate 100.
[0112] It is understood that the third support portion 130 can connect the edge of the first support portion 110 to the vehicle body on the third side S3 of the mounting plate 100, or the third support portion 130 can connect the edge of the second support portion 120 to the vehicle body on the third side S3 of the mounting plate 100, or the edges of both the first support portion 110 and the second support portion 120 can be connected to the vehicle body through the third support portion 130.
[0113] This design enables the mounting plate 100 of this application to form a triangular box-shaped structure, ensuring the rigidity of the mounting plate 100 while facilitating its integral processing and forming.
[0114] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The mounting plate 100 includes a flanged portion 140. The flanged portion 140 extends from the first support portion 110 to the second support portion 120. Specifically, the flanged portion 140 is arranged opposite to the third support portion 130. The flanged portion 140 further enhances the rigidity of the mounting plate 100, making the mounting plate 100 more stable.
[0115] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting plate 100 also includes a first connecting part 150 and a second connecting part 160.
[0116] The first connecting portion 150 is disposed on the side of the first support portion 110 away from the second support portion 120, and is used to fix the first support portion 110 to the vehicle body. The second connecting portion 160 is disposed on the side of the second support portion 120 away from the first support portion 110, and is used to fix the second support portion 120 to the vehicle body.
[0117] Specifically, the first connecting part 150 is bent relative to the first supporting part 110, and the second connecting part 160 is bent relative to the second supporting part 120. The first connecting part 150 and the second connecting part 160 are welded and fixed to the vehicle body.
[0118] By adopting this solution, the first connecting part 150 and the second connecting part 160 can achieve flexible adaptation and connection with the vehicle body without affecting the triangular structure formed by the first supporting part 110 and the second supporting part 120.
[0119] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The mounting plate 100 further includes a third connecting portion 170. The third connecting portion 170 is disposed on the side of the third support portion 130 away from the first support portion 110 and / or the second support portion 120, and is used to securely connect the third support portion 130 to the vehicle body. The third connecting portion 170 enables a flexible and adaptable connection with the vehicle body.
[0120] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The third connecting part 170 is connected between the first connecting part 150 and the second connecting part 160, so that the first connecting part 150, the second connecting part 160 and the third connecting part 170 form a whole.
[0121] With this design, the first connecting part 150, the second connecting part 160 and the third connecting part 170 form a whole, which improves the connection strength of the mounting plate 100 and facilitates the processing of the mounting plate 100.
[0122] In other embodiments, the first connecting portion 150, the second connecting portion 160, and the third connecting portion 170 are independent of each other, that is, there is no direct connection between the first connecting portion 150, the second connecting portion 160, and the third connecting portion 170. In this way, the bending angle of the first connecting portion 150, the second connecting portion 160, and the third connecting portion 170 can be adjusted individually to better adapt to the vehicle body structure.
[0123] According to the second aspect of this application, referring to Figure 3 An installation assembly 10a is provided, which includes the aforementioned installation plate 100 and installation support plate 200.
[0124] The mounting support plate 200 is coupled to the mounting plate 100, which is configured to be connected to a first body component of the vehicle 1, and the mounting support plate 200 is configured to connect the mounting plate 100 to a second body component of the vehicle 1.
[0125] It is understandable that the first body component and the second body component are different parts of the vehicle body, such as different sheet metal parts.
[0126] The mounting support plate 200 is attached to the mounting plate 100, which can be understood as the mounting support plate 200 and the mounting plate 100 being fixed by welding, bolt connection or other means.
[0127] By connecting the mounting plate 100 and the mounting support plate 200 to different body parts, the mounting assembly 10a can transmit force to the first and second body parts it is connected to, which is beneficial to the dispersion of force. This significantly improves the connection strength of the mounting plate 100, enhances the constraint force on the tailgate 20, and thus improves the performance of the tailgate 20.
[0128] In a specific embodiment of this application, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The first body component can be the upper part of the D-pillar inner panel 410, and the second body component can be the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420; wherein, the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420 is used to connect the upper part of the D-pillar inner panel 410 to the rear crossbeam 430 of the roof.
[0129] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 3 to 6 The mounting support plate 200 includes: a main body 210 and a fourth connecting part 220.
[0130] At least a portion of the main body 210 covers the first support 110, and the main body 210 is in contact with the first inclined surface 111 of the first support 110; at least two fourth connecting portions 220 are provided, and the fourth connecting portions 220 are configured to connect with the second body component; wherein, the main body 210 is located between the two fourth connecting portions 220.
[0131] For example, the mounting support plate 200 includes two fourth connecting parts 220, which are welded to the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420; the mounting support plate 200 is located between the mounting plate 100 and the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420, that is, the mounting support plate 200 is connected to the mounting plate 100 and the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420 by a three-layer welding method.
[0132] With this design, the mounting plate 200 is connected to the first support portion 110 via the main body portion 210, and the fourth connecting portions 220 on both sides are connected to the second body component, so that part of the force on the mounting plate 100 can be effectively transmitted to the second body component through the mounting plate 200.
[0133] In some embodiments, the mounting support plate 200 has a second mounting structure. The second mounting structure is configured to cooperate with the first mounting structure to connect the hinge 30. That is, the hinge 30 is connected to both the mounting plate 100 and the mounting support plate 200, thereby increasing the restraint on the hinge 30.
[0134] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6The first mounting structure is configured to include a first mounting hole 112, which is disposed through the first support portion 110. The second mounting structure is configured to include a second mounting hole 211, which is disposed through the main body portion 210 of the mounting support plate 200. The first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 are correspondingly provided, and the mounting bolts of the hinge 30 pass through the first mounting hole 112 and the second mounting hole 211 to fix the hinge 30.
[0135] For example, refer to Figures 3 to 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 The hinge 30 is located on the side of the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420 facing away from the mounting plate 100. The rear crossbeam connecting plate 420 is also provided with a third mounting hole 421 corresponding to the first mounting hole 112. The mounting bolts of the hinge 30 are sequentially mounted in the third mounting hole 421, the second mounting hole 211 and the first mounting hole 112, thereby fixing the hinge 30 to the surface of the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420.
[0136] According to the third aspect of this application, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 A vehicle body assembly 10 is provided, which includes the aforementioned mounting plate 100 or the aforementioned mounting component 10a.
[0137] The vehicle body assembly 10 has all the beneficial effects of the aforementioned mounting plate 100 or mounting component 10a, which will not be repeated here.
[0138] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 8 to 10 Mounting plate 100 is configured to be connected to a first body component of vehicle 1, and body assembly 10 includes a plurality of reinforcing braces; the reinforcing braces are configured to connect the first body component to surrounding components; wherein at least a portion of mounting plate 100 is located within the area enclosed by the plurality of reinforcing braces.
[0139] By adopting this scheme, the first body component is connected to the surrounding components through multiple reinforcing plates, increasing local rigidity. The external load on the reinforcing plates can be effectively transferred to the surrounding components through the first body component, improving the overall torsional resistance of the first body component and providing better constraint on the movement of the hinge 30.
[0140] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 7 to 10 The first body component includes the upper part 410 of the D-pillar inner panel, and a hinge 30 for connecting the tailgate 20. Multiple reinforcing plates include: a first type of reinforcing plate 310, a second type of reinforcing plate 320, and a third type of reinforcing plate 330.
[0141] Specifically, the first type of reinforcing plate 310 is configured to connect the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner panel to at least one of the following: the rear crossbeam 430 of the roof, the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420, and the upper plate 440 of the rear crossbeam. The second type of reinforcing plate 320 is configured to connect the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner panel to the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450. The third type of reinforcing plate 330 is configured to connect the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner panel to at least one of the following: the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450, the rear section 460 of the roof frame reinforcing plate, and the C-pillar inner panel 470.
[0142] For example, refer to Figures 8 to 12 The first type of reinforcing support plate 310 includes a first welding edge 311 and a second welding edge 312. The first welding edge 311 is connected to the upper part of the inner plate of the D-pillar 410 and the rear crossbeam of the roof 430 by a three-layer welding method. The second welding edge 312 is connected to the rear crossbeam connecting plate 420 and the upper plate of the rear crossbeam 440 by a three-layer welding method.
[0143] In this application, three-layer welding refers to being stacked and welded together (the same below). For example, the first welding edge 311 is stacked and welded together with at least a portion of the upper section 410 of the inner plate of the D column and at least a portion of the rear crossbeam 430 of the top cover.
[0144] Reference Figures 8 to 10 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 The D-pillar reinforcing plate 450 is installed on the upper section 410 of the inner panel of the D-pillar, and the second type of reinforcing support plate 320 is located between the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450 and the upper section 410 of the inner panel of the D-pillar. The second type of reinforcing support plate 320 includes a third welding edge 321 and a fourth welding edge 322. The third welding edge 321 is connected to the upper section 410 of the inner panel of the D-pillar by a two-layer welding method, and the fourth welding edge 322 is connected to the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450 by a two-layer welding method.
[0145] Reference Figures 8 to 10 , Figures 15 to 17 The D-pillar reinforcing plate 450 and the rear section 460 of the top frame reinforcing plate are respectively covered on the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner plate, and part of the rear section 460 of the top frame reinforcing plate overlaps with the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450. Part of the C-pillar inner plate 470 overlaps with the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner plate. The third type of reinforcing support plate 330 includes a fifth welding edge 331, a sixth welding edge 332, and a seventh welding edge 333. The fifth welding edge 331 is connected to the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450 and the rear section 460 of the top frame reinforcing plate by a three-layer welding method; the sixth welding edge 332 is connected to the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner plate and the C-pillar inner plate 470 by a three-layer welding method; the sixth welding edge 332 is welded to the upper section 410 of the D-pillar inner plate by a two-layer MIG welding method.
[0146] By setting up the first type of reinforcing support plate 310, the second type of reinforcing support plate 320, and the third type of reinforcing support plate 330, the three support plates form a connected spatial triangular structure around the mounting plate 100, connecting the sheet metal parts around the D-pillar, making the overall structure of the D-pillar more integrated, and allowing the various sheet metal parts around the mounting plate 100 to assist each other, ensuring the continuity of force transmission. Compared with the existing structure, the body and hinge 30 exert stronger restraint on the tailgate 20, improving the rigidity and strength performance of the tailgate 20, thus giving the tailgate 20 higher resistance under various working conditions.
[0147] Furthermore, the three reinforcing plates disperse the large cavity of the D-pillar into multiple continuous small cavities. The first type of reinforcing plate 310 connects the upper section 410 of the inner plate of the D-pillar, the upper plate 440 of the rear crossbeam, the connecting plate 420 of the rear crossbeam, and the rear crossbeam of the roof cover 430 to form the first cavity; the second type of reinforcing plate 320 connects the upper section 410 of the inner plate of the D-pillar and the rear section 460 of the top frame reinforcing plate to form the second cavity; the third type of reinforcing plate 330 connects the upper section 410 of the inner plate of the D-pillar and the D-pillar reinforcing plate 450 to form the third cavity; a small cavity is formed between the three reinforcing plates. By increasing local rigidity, the load can be effectively distributed to various structures, improving the overall torsional resistance of the D-pillar structure. Moreover, the design of the continuous cavity structure significantly improves the noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) and torsional stiffness of the entire vehicle.
[0148] According to the fourth aspect of this application, referring to Figure 18 The present application provides a vehicle 1, which includes the aforementioned mounting plate 100, or the aforementioned mounting component 10a, or the aforementioned body assembly 10. The vehicle 1 has all the beneficial effects of the aforementioned mounting plate 100, mounting component 10a, or body assembly 10, which will not be elaborated further here.
[0149] The vehicle 1 can be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, or a new energy vehicle, etc., and this application does not make any specific restrictions on it.
[0150] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 19 The vehicle 1 also includes a tailgate 20. The tailgate 20 is configured to be connected to the body assembly 10 via a hinge 30; wherein the tailgate 20 includes a hinge reinforcement plate 21 and an upper section 22 of the tailgate outer panel; the cavity between the hinge reinforcement plate 21 and the upper section 22 of the tailgate outer panel is provided with a structural filling material 23.
[0151] By adopting this solution, structural filling material 23 is provided in the cavity between the hinge reinforcement plate 21 and the upper part 22 of the back door outer panel, which can effectively replace the sheet metal reinforcement structure, ensure the rigidity performance, and at the same time play a role in weight reduction and simplification of process difficulty.
[0152] As a specific solution, the structural filling material 23 adopts CBS (composite body solutions) technology to bond the composite material skeleton and thermal expansion adhesive to the cavity between the hinge reinforcement plate 21 and the upper section 22 of the tailgate outer panel. After thermal activation and curing, the thermal expansion adhesive fills the gaps between the composite material skeletons, thereby filling the cavity and increasing the connection strength between the hinge reinforcement plate 21 and the upper section 22 of the tailgate outer panel. The structural filling material 23 is provided in the cavity between the hinge reinforcement plate 21 and the upper section 22 of the tailgate outer panel to improve the reinforcing effect of the hinge reinforcement plate 21, thereby improving the overall performance of the tailgate 20.
