Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and specifically to an automotive drainage connector. Background Technology

[0002] The sunroof drain pipe connector mainly serves to connect the sunroof drain pipe assembly to the sunroof drain channel outlet. The drain pipe itself is responsible for transporting liquid, while the lower drain rubber hose mainly serves to connect the sunroof drain pipe assembly to the lower drain hole of the body sheet metal. The lower drain rubber hose passes through the hole on the body sheet metal to discharge the transported liquid outside the vehicle.

[0003] Existing automotive drain connectors typically employ a one-piece structure. When these connectors age or become clogged, a significant amount of time and effort is required for disassembly and cleaning. This not only increases the difficulty of maintenance but may also lead to secondary damage to the drainage system due to improper maintenance, further affecting its performance and lifespan.

The third installation part has a drain hole through it in the middle. The drain hole communicates with the transition section. The connecting section is fixedly installed at the end of the transition section away from the installation section.

[0007] The second connector has a connecting part inside the end of the second connector that is close to the first connector. The connecting part is provided in correspondence with the connecting segment. The second connector has an assembly groove on the outer side of the end of the second connector that is away from the first connector. The assembly groove is used to assemble the drain pipe.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] The following describes the embodiments and appendices. Figures 1-4 The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] A car drain connector, comprising:

[0027] The first connector 1 includes an installation section 11, a transition section 12, and a connecting section 13. The installation section 11 includes a first installation part 111, a second installation part 112, and a third installation part 113. The first installation part 111 has a first drain trough 21 extending through its upper end and an installation groove 22 extending through its lower end. The second installation part 112 has a guide groove 31 extending through its middle part. The third installation part 113 has a drain hole 41 extending through its middle part. The drain hole 41 is connected to the transition section 12. The connecting section 13 is fixedly installed at the end of the transition section 12 away from the installation section 11.

[0028] The second connector 5 has a connecting part 51 inside the end of the second connector 5 that is close to the first connector 1. The connecting part 51 is correspondingly provided with the connecting segment 13. The second connector 5 has an assembly groove 52 on the outer side of the end of the second connector 5 that is away from the first connector 1. The assembly groove 52 is used to assemble the drain pipe.

[0029] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model adopts a split design, mainly consisting of a first connector 1 and a second connector 2. The first connector 1 is specifically used to fix at the drain outlet of the car sunroof, serving to collect and guide the water discharged from the sunroof. The second connector 2 is set in the car's drainage channel, and its function is to connect the drain pipe and smoothly guide the collected water to the outside of the car.

[0030] In actual use, the first connector 1 is exposed to the outside of the frame for a long time, and is affected by factors such as weather changes, ultraviolet radiation, and temperature differences, which leads to material aging and performance degradation. When this happens, the user only needs to release the locking connection between the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 and replace the aged first connector 1. There is no need to replace the entire drainage pipe system. This not only saves replacement costs, but also reduces the time and labor costs caused by replacing the entire drainage pipe system.

[0031] In practice, users can unlock the connection between the two connectors using simple tools or manual operation. This process usually does not require complicated disassembly steps or large-scale disassembly and reassembly of other parts of the car, thus avoiding additional damage or inconvenience to the vehicle. After replacing the new first connector 1, simply reinstall and lock it as it was to restore the normal function of the drainage system.

[0032] In addition, different car sunroofs and drainage channels may have differences in size or shape, but by adjusting the connection method or size of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2, the installation requirements of various car models can be adapted to meet the needs of different users.

[0033] In particular, the bending angle of the transition section 12 is usually close to a right angle. During long-term use, impurities are more likely to accumulate at the bend, causing blockage. The separate connector design makes it easy to clean the blockage. When cleaning, simply separate the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 to easily access the bend of the transition section 12. Use compressed air, a fine brush or a special cleaning tool to effectively remove the accumulated impurities and restore smooth drainage.

[0034] As a further preferred embodiment, the upper end of the second mounting part 112 is provided with a sealing groove 32, and a sealing element can be provided in the sealing groove 32.

[0035] Specifically, during installation, the seal is embedded in the sealing groove 32, which can effectively fill the gap between the second mounting part 112 and the adjacent parts, prevent water from leaking from the joint connection, and ensure the sealing and reliability of the drainage system.

[0036] As a further preferred embodiment, the connecting segment 13 is provided with an external thread, and the connecting part 51 is provided with an internal thread, with the external thread of the connecting segment 13 corresponding to the internal thread of the connecting part 51.

[0037] As a further preferred embodiment, the first drain trough 21 is provided with anti-foolproof slots 211 around its perimeter.

[0038] As a further preferred embodiment, the second connector 5 is provided with anti-slip texture 53 on the outer side near the connecting part 51.

[0039] Specifically, the threaded connection not only provides sufficient mechanical strength to ensure that the joint will not loosen or fall off during drainage, but also enhances the sealing of the connection to effectively prevent water leakage; in addition, the threaded connection is designed to be easy to install and disassemble, and users can easily separate the two joints for cleaning or replacement without complicated tools or operations.

[0040] As a further preferred embodiment, the guide groove 31 is inclined toward one side of the drain hole 41.

[0041] The preferred embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of this utility model without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of this utility model through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should be within the scope of protection defined by the claims.
