Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle parts technology, and in particular to a trim panel mounting structure. It also relates to a vehicle equipped with the trim panel mounting structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, vehicle body trim panels typically employ a combination of snap-fit ​​and screw-fit installation designs. Since panel removal relies on the snaps forcibly detaching through deformation, this process easily damages the snaps, causing them to fail during reinstallation and resulting in a loose, unsecured fit. Furthermore, both removal and installation require specialized tools, making the process cumbersome, time-consuming, and significantly increasing the difficulty of assembly and disassembly, causing considerable inconvenience to related operations. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a trim panel mounting structure to facilitate the installation and removal of trim panels on vehicle body components.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0005] A trim panel mounting structure includes an insertion portion and a hook portion disposed between the trim panel and a body component, wherein the insertion portion and the hook portion are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the trim panel in a first direction;

[0006] The insertion part can insert one end of the trim panel into the body component along the first direction, and the hooking part can hook the other end of the inserted trim panel into the body component.

[0007] Furthermore, the hook portion includes a connecting post disposed on the trim panel, and a hook disposed on the body component corresponding to the connecting post;

[0008] The hook is rotatable relative to the vehicle body component and has a clearance state away from the connecting post, as well as a connection state hooked onto the connecting post.

[0009] Furthermore, the connecting post is provided with an anti-detachment part, which is used to prevent the hook from detaching from the connecting post.

[0010] Furthermore, the body component is provided with a protruding portion that protrudes toward one side of the trim panel, and the protruding portion is provided with a limiting groove;

[0011] The connecting post is inserted into the limiting groove, and the connecting post abuts against the two side walls of the limiting groove, thereby restricting the displacement of the decorative panel in the second direction.

[0012] Furthermore, the hook includes a first rod and a second rod arranged at intervals in the second direction, and a hook body connecting the first rod and the second rod on both sides;

[0013] The first rod is inserted into the vehicle body component, and the second rod is inserted into the vehicle body component after elastic deformation. In the connected state, the first rod and the second rod abut against the protruding part, and the connecting post is hooked onto the hook body.

[0014] Furthermore, both the first rod and the second rod include a connecting section and an installation section that are bent and connected together;

[0015] The connecting section is connected to the hook body, and the mounting section is inserted into the vehicle body component.

[0016] Furthermore, the protruding portion is provided with a limiting rib, which abuts against the hook and restricts the displacement of the hook in the second direction.

[0017] Furthermore, the trim panel is provided with a protruding plate that extends towards one side of the body component.

[0018] The connecting post is disposed on the convex plate, and the convex plate abuts against the protruding portion, thereby restricting the displacement of the decorative panel along the first direction; and / or,

[0019] The trim panel is provided with a plurality of support protrusions protruding along a third direction. The third direction, the second direction, and the first direction are perpendicular to each other. The support protrusions abut against the body parts.

[0020] Furthermore, the insertion portion includes a slot provided on the trim panel and an insertion portion provided on the body component;

[0021] The insert portion is inserted into the slot, and the insert portion abuts against the bottom of the slot, thereby restricting the displacement of the trim panel along the first direction.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0023] The trim panel installation structure of this utility model features an insertion part and a hook-and-connection part positioned at opposite ends of the trim panel in a first direction. During installation, the insertion part allows one end of the trim panel to be inserted into the body component, providing a preliminary fixing base. Once one end of the trim panel is inserted, the hook-and-connection part secures the other end of the trim panel to the body component. These two parts work together to create a new, efficient, and convenient trim panel installation method that requires no tools, effectively avoiding the problems of snap-fit ​​failure and inconvenient disassembly associated with traditional snap-fit ​​and screw-fit structures.

[0024] In addition, the hook-and-loop assembly includes a connecting post and a hook, and the hook is designed to rotate in both a avoidance state and a connection state. This allows the hook to rotate relative to the body parts and move away from the connecting post, providing sufficient space for the installation or removal of the trim panel and avoiding interference. At the same time, the hook-and-loop assembly, through the cooperation of the connecting post and the rotatable hook, enables the quick installation and convenient removal of the trim panel, while also having high reliability and reusability.

[0025] By incorporating an anti-detachment feature on the connecting post to prevent the hook from detaching, the hook can be securely attached to the connecting post, further improving the reliability of the connection between the trim panel and the body components. Furthermore, by providing a limiting groove on the protruding portion of the body components, the position of the trim panel at that end can be quickly determined by simply aligning and inserting the connecting post into the limiting groove during installation. The abutment between the connecting post and the two side walls of the limiting groove restricts the displacement of the trim panel in a second direction, thus constraining the trim panel in both directions. This results in a more stable installation, reducing the likelihood of wobbling or shifting, and ensuring the stability of the trim panel during vehicle operation.

[0026] Secondly, the first rod of the hook is inserted into the body component first, providing initial positioning for hook installation. The second rod is then inserted after elastic deformation, and the first and second rods abut against the protruding part. This not only helps to further fix the position of the hook on the body component, but also improves the connection stability between the hook and the trim panel, thus further improving the installation stability of the trim panel. Both the first and second rods include a bent connecting section and an installation section. Therefore, by bending the installation section of the second rod to one side, the angle between its installation section and the connecting section can be changed, thereby achieving elastic deformation of the second rod. This structure facilitates the installation of the hook on the body component.

[0027] By setting limiting ribs on the protruding part, the displacement of the hook in the second direction can be restricted. Thus, after the trim panel is installed, the hook will not shift in the second direction due to external forces such as vibration and shaking during vehicle operation. This helps to ensure the stability of the connection between the hook and the connecting post, thereby maintaining the firmness of the trim panel installation.

[0028] Furthermore, by providing a protruding plate on the trim panel body that abuts against the protruding portion, the displacement of the trim panel in the first direction can be effectively limited. Thus, combined with the connection post and the limiting groove to limit the displacement of the trim panel in the second direction, the trim panel can be stably limited in both directions, thereby greatly enhancing the stability of the trim panel installation. By having the support protrusion extend along a third direction and abut against the body components, the trim panel can be effectively supported and constrained in all three directions, thereby greatly enhancing the stability of the trim panel on the body components and preventing the trim panel from shaking, shifting, or deforming due to external forces.

[0029] In addition, the insertion part includes a slot on the trim panel and an insertion part on the body component. This structure is simple, easy to manufacture and process, and convenient to operate, which can improve the efficiency of trim panel installation and removal. The contact between the insertion part and the bottom of the slot can effectively limit the displacement of the trim panel in the first direction, which helps to improve the installation stability of the trim panel on the body component.

[0030] In addition, another objective of this utility model is to provide a vehicle having the trim panel mounting structure described above.

[0031] The vehicle described in this utility model, by setting the trim panel installation structure as described above, not only enables the trim panel to have better installation stability, but also facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the trim panel, which helps to improve assembly efficiency and facilitates later maintenance and replacement.

[0054] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0055] Example 1

[0056] Given that existing rear bumper bottom trim panels typically employ a combination of snap-fit ​​and screw-fit installation designs, this design presents numerous drawbacks when installing towing systems on off-road vehicles, involving the removal and installation of the rear bumper bottom trim panel. It not only hinders the removal and installation of the trim panel but also easily damages the clips.

[0057] Therefore, this embodiment proposes a novel trim panel mounting structure, including an insertion part and a hooking part disposed between the trim panel 1 and the body component, wherein the insertion part and the hooking part are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the trim panel 1 in a first direction. The insertion part is capable of inserting one end of the trim panel 1 into the body component along the first direction, and the hooking part is capable of hooking the other end of the inserted trim panel 1 into the body component.

[0058] The trim panel mounting structure of this embodiment provides an insertion part and a hook-and-connection part between the trim panel 1 and the body component, with the two parts positioned at opposite ends of the trim panel 1 in a first direction. During installation, the insertion part inserts one end of the trim panel 1 into the body component, providing a preliminary fixing foundation. Once one end of the trim panel 1 is inserted through the insertion part, the hook-and-connection part securely fixes the other end of the trim panel 1 to the body component. These two parts complement each other, creating a new, efficient, and convenient trim panel 1 installation method that requires no tools. This effectively avoids problems such as snap-fit ​​failure and inconvenient disassembly / reassembly associated with traditional snap-fit ​​and screw-fit structures.

[0059] Based on the above design concept, an exemplary structural reference for the decorative panel mounting structure in this embodiment is provided. Figures 1 to 5As shown in the diagram, specifically the rear bumper 2 is used as a body component, and the trim panel 1 is specifically described using the lower bumper trim panel 1 as an example, which will still be referred to as "trimmed panel 1" below. Correspondingly, the first direction is the front-to-rear direction of the vehicle, the second direction is the left-to-right direction of the vehicle, and the third direction is the up-and-down direction of the vehicle. It can be understood that this trim panel mounting structure can also be used for mounting other trim panels 1 on other body components.

[0060] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the rear bumper 2 of this embodiment is generally L-shaped and has a longitudinal portion 202 extending along the vertical direction of the vehicle and a transverse portion 201 extending forward of the longitudinal portion 202 along the front-rear direction of the vehicle. The trim panel 1 is specifically disposed on the transverse portion 201 of the rear bumper 2. In addition, the transverse portion 201 is provided with an upwardly extending boss 2011, and a groove with a forward opening is provided on the boss 2011. The trim panel 1 is connected to the boss 2011 and seals the groove.

[0061] An exemplary structure of the decorative panel 1 is as follows: Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the trim panel 1 is rectangular in shape, conforming to the groove. After being installed on the rear bumper 2, it seals the groove and abuts against the side wall of the groove. Furthermore, to improve the structural strength of the trim panel 1, upward-protruding upper flanges 103 are provided on the left and right sides and the rear edge of the trim panel 1, while a downward-protruding lower flange is provided on the front side of the trim panel 1. Simultaneously, multiple reinforcing ribs are provided on the upper surface of the trim panel 1, interwoven horizontally and vertically.

[0062] In one preferred embodiment, the insertion portion includes a slot on the trim panel 1 and an insertion part on the body component. The insertion part is inserted into the slot and abuts against the bottom of the slot, thus restricting the displacement of the trim panel 1 along a first direction. This is combined with... Figure 1 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the slots are arranged in multiple spaces along the edge of the trim panel 1, and the insert portion inserted into the slot is formed by a portion of the boss 2011 of the rear bumper 2. At the same time, the insert portion abuts against the bottom of the slot, which can restrict the rearward displacement of the trim panel 1 in the first direction.

[0063] Specifically, the upper flange 103 of the trim panel 1 has multiple "7"-shaped inserts 102 spaced apart, forming a slot between the inserts 102 and the upper flange 103. Obviously, besides having multiple slots spaced apart, the slots can also be a single, continuously arranged slot. The fit between the slot and the insert in this embodiment is simple and intuitive. During installation, simply align the insert with the slot on the trim panel 1 and insert it to complete the initial connection. This convenient operation greatly shortens installation time and improves assembly efficiency. Furthermore, by abutting the bottom of the slot, the displacement of the trim panel 1 along the first direction is restricted, helping to maintain the trim panel 1 in an accurate position in that direction after installation.

[0064] In addition, as a preferred implementation method, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the hook part in this embodiment includes a connecting post 101 provided on the trim panel 1, and a hook 203 provided on the body component corresponding to the connecting post 101. Moreover, the hook 203 can rotate relative to the body component (i.e., the rear bumper 2 in this embodiment), and has a state of avoiding the connecting post 101, and a state of being hooked on the connecting post 101.

[0065] In this embodiment, by rotating the hook 203 relative to the rear bumper 2 and away from the connecting post 101, sufficient space is provided for the installation or removal of the trim panel 1, avoiding interference. Furthermore, after the initial fixing of the insertion part, the trim panel 1 can be installed simply by rotating the hook 203 to the connected state, making the operation simple and efficient. During disassembly, rotating the hook 203 to the avoidance state easily separates the trim panel 1 without the need for tools, effectively avoiding the problem of easy damage to traditional buckle structures.

[0066] In detail, combined Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, to improve the connection between the trim panel 1 and the rear bumper 2, both the left and right sides of the trim panel 1 are hooked together with the rear bumper 2, that is, the hooks 203 and the connecting posts 101 are arranged opposite each other on the left and right sides. Therefore, mounting blocks 2012 located on the left and right sides of the groove are provided on the boss 2011, and the hooks 203 are provided on the mounting blocks 2012. The mounting blocks 2012 protrude along the third direction, that is, the vertical direction of the whole vehicle, and the left and right sides of each mounting block 2012 are respectively provided with insertion holes for the hooks 203 to be inserted. In addition, to improve the setting of the hooks 203, at least one side of the left and right sides of the mounting blocks 2012 is provided with reinforcing ribs. In this embodiment, for example, Figure 7 As shown, reinforcing ribs are preferably provided on both the left and right sides of the mounting block 2012.

[0067] As a further embodiment, the vehicle body component, specifically the rear bumper 2, has a protruding portion 2013 extending towards the trim panel 1, and the protruding portion 2013 has a limiting groove 20131. A connecting post 101 is inserted into the limiting groove 20131, abutting against the side walls of the limiting groove 20131, thus restricting the displacement of the trim panel 1 in the second direction. Here, the protruding portion 2013 and its limiting groove 20131 provide precise positioning space for the connecting post 101. During installation, the connecting post 101 only needs to be aligned and inserted into the limiting groove 20131 to quickly determine the position of the trim panel 1 at that end. By abutting the connecting post 101 against the side walls of the limiting groove 20131, the displacement of the trim panel 1 in the second direction (i.e., the left-right direction of the vehicle) is effectively restricted. At the same time, combined with the plug at the other end of the trim panel 1, the trim panel 1 is constrained in both directions, making the installation of the trim panel 1 more stable and less prone to shaking or shifting, which can effectively ensure the stability of the trim panel 1 during vehicle operation.

[0068] Among them, combined Figure 7 As shown, the protruding portion 2013 is a plate-like structure protruding downwards and forwards from the boss 2011, meaning that the protruding portion 2013 and the boss 2011 are arranged at an obtuse angle, which facilitates the insertion of the connecting post 101 into the limiting groove 20131. The hook 203 is specifically located on the front side of the protruding portion 2013 and abuts against it, thus providing good installation stability. Furthermore, as a further embodiment, such as... Figure 7 As shown, the protruding portion 2013 is provided with a limiting rib 2014, which abuts against the hook 203 and restricts the displacement of the hook 203 in the second direction.

[0069] Among them, such as Figure 7 As shown, limiting ribs 2014 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the limiting groove 20131 and connected between the boss 2011 and the protruding part 2013, so as to further strengthen the structural strength of the lateral part 201 of the rear bumper 2. In this embodiment, by setting the limiting ribs 2014, the displacement of the hook 203 in the second direction can be precisely limited, ensuring that the hook 203 is always in the correct position designed. After the trim panel 1 is installed, the hook 203 will not be displaced in the second direction due to external forces such as vibration and shaking during vehicle operation, which helps to ensure the stability of the hook relationship between the hook 203 and the connecting post 101, thereby maintaining the firmness of the trim panel 1 installation.

[0070] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 7 and Figure 10As shown, the hook 203 of this embodiment includes a first rod 2031 and a second rod 2033 arranged at intervals in a second direction, and a hook 2032 connecting the first rod 2031 and the second rod 2033. The first rod 2031 is inserted into the vehicle body component (i.e., the rear bumper 2 of this embodiment), and the second rod 2033 is elastically deformed and inserted into the rear bumper 2. The first rod 2031 and the second rod 2033 abut against the protruding portion 2013, and the connecting post 101 is hooked onto the hook 2032.

[0071] This arrangement allows for more flexible installation by sequentially inserting the first rod 2031 and the second rod 2033, which are spaced apart in the second direction, into the rear bumper 2. The first rod 2031 is inserted first into the rear bumper 2 to provide initial positioning for the hook 203. The second rod 2033 is inserted after elastic deformation. This step-by-step operation reduces installation difficulty, allowing installers to easily install the hook 203 even in relatively small or complex installation spaces, thus improving installation efficiency. Furthermore, the first rod 2031 and the second rod 2033 abut against the rod 2031 of the protruding portion 2013, further securing the hook 203 to the rear bumper 2 and enhancing the overall resistance of the hook assembly to external forces.

[0072] As a further implementation method, such as Figure 10 As shown, when viewed in the second direction, that is, the left-right direction of the entire vehicle, the hook 203 is bent. This structure not only improves the structural strength of the hook 203, but also enhances the connection between it and the connecting post 101. It also allows the connecting post 101 to tilt upwards, so that the hook 203 can be hooked onto the connecting post 101.

[0073] Specifically, such as Figure 10 As shown in the diagram, both the first rod 2031 and the second rod 2033 in this embodiment include a connecting section 2a and an mounting section 2b that are bent and connected together. The connecting section 2a of each rod is connected to the hook 2032, and the mounting section 2b is inserted into the rear bumper 2. Therefore, by bending the mounting section 2b of the second rod 2033 to one side, the angle between the mounting section 2b and the connecting section 2a can be changed, thereby achieving elastic deformation of the second rod 2033. This structure facilitates the installation of the hook 2 on the rear bumper 2.

[0074] Based on the above structure, combined with Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown in the diagram, in a further embodiment, the trim panel 1 of this embodiment is provided with a protruding plate 104 protruding towards the rear bumper 2, that is, the protruding plate 104 protrudes upward. The connecting post 101 is specifically provided on the protruding plate 104, and the protruding plate 104 abuts against the protruding portion 2013, thereby restricting the displacement of the trim panel 1 along the first direction. In other words, the abutment between the protruding plate 104 and the protruding portion 2013 can restrict the forward displacement of the trim panel 1 along the first direction.

[0075] In this embodiment, the displacement of the trim panel 1 in the first direction is effectively limited by the abutment between the convex plate 104 and the protruding portion 2013 of the rear bumper 2. Combined with the previously mentioned connecting post 101 and limiting groove 20131, which restrict the displacement of the trim panel 1 in the second direction, the trim panel 1 achieves stable positioning in both directions. This bidirectional positioning structure greatly enhances the stability of the trim panel 1 installation, enabling it to better maintain its correct position when subjected to complex external forces during vehicle operation, reducing the possibility of swaying and displacement.

[0076] like Figure 9 As shown in the diagram, in a preferred embodiment, the protruding plate 104 is L-shaped and connected to the upper flange 103 of the trim panel 1 to improve the strength of the connecting post 101, thereby helping to improve the connection firmness between the trim panel 1 and the rear bumper 2. Additionally, as... Figure 9 As shown, the connecting post 101 is inclined upward in a direction away from the protrusion 104, which facilitates the hook 203 to be hooked onto the connecting post 101.

[0077] In this embodiment, as a further implementation, the connecting post 101 is provided with an anti-detachment part, which is used to prevent the hook 203 from detaching from the connecting post 101. Furthermore, as a specific implementation, the anti-detachment part in this embodiment includes an anti-detachment protrusion 1011 located at the bottom of the connecting post 101. The provision of this anti-detachment part effectively prevents the hook 203 from accidentally detaching from the connecting post 101 due to external forces such as vibration and bumps during vehicle operation, thereby improving the overall stability of the connection. Simultaneously, it also allows the hook 203 to pass over the anti-detachment part when subjected to sufficient external force, thus enabling the removal of the trim panel 1.

[0078] In addition, as another embodiment, the trim panel 1 is provided with a plurality of support protrusions 1031 protruding along a third direction, wherein the third direction, the second direction, and the first direction are mutually perpendicular, and the support protrusions 1031 abut against the body parts. In a specific embodiment, the support protrusions 1031 are specifically provided on the upper flange 103 and protrude upward, and there are multiple support protrusions 1031 spaced apart, so that there are multiple support points between them and the rear bumper 2.

[0079] By setting a support protrusion 1031 protruding along the third direction, the space in the third direction is fully utilized without affecting the connection between the trim panel 1 and the rear bumper 2 in the first and second directions. This design achieves stable support for the trim panel 1 in all directions within the limited interior space of the vehicle body, improves space utilization, and makes the entire installation structure more compact and reasonable.

[0080] Based on the above description, during installation of the trim panel 1 in this embodiment, the panel 1 is first inserted into the boss 2011 of the rear bumper 2 with a tilted posture (lower at the front and higher at the rear). Then, the hook 203 is rotated forward to avoid the connecting post 101, and the front end of the trim panel 1 is rotated upward with the rear end as the fulcrum so that the connecting post 101 is inserted into the limiting groove 20131. Finally, the hook 203 is rotated to hook onto the connecting post 101, and an external force is applied to one side of the rod 2031 of the hook 203 to deform it and insert it into the corresponding hole on the mounting block 2012, thus completing the installation of the trim panel 1. The process of removing the trim panel 1 is basically the reverse of the installation process.

[0081] Therefore, the decorative panel installation structure of this embodiment, by adopting the above structure, eliminates the need for tools when removing the decorative panel 1, and is highly efficient and convenient. It can effectively avoid the problems of buckle failure and inconvenience of disassembly and assembly caused by traditional snap-fit ​​and screw-fit structures.
