[0038] The following is for reference. Figures 1-8 The vehicle door outer panel assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model is described. The vehicle door outer panel assembly 100 realizes the concealment of the outer water cutter 2 of the vehicle door, thereby improving the aesthetics, quality and premium feel of the vehicle, enhancing the user experience, and achieving lightweighting and cost reduction.
[0039] like Figures 1-8 As shown, a door outer panel assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a door outer panel 1 and a door outer water cutter 2.
[0040] The outer door panel 1 is a major part of the outer door panel assembly 100. It serves as the external panel of the door and effectively resists external impacts to protect the vehicle's internal structure. For example, Figure 1 As shown, an installation structure 3 is provided on the upper inner side of the outer door panel 1. The outer door water cutter 2 is installed on the installation structure 3. The outer door water cutter 2 is used to prevent rainwater, dust and other impurities from entering the door through the door gap. It also removes surface water, fog, frost and dust when the window glass 5 is raised and lowered, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and dryness of the window and the interior of the car. The installation structure 3 is set to install and fix the outer door water cutter 2 to ensure the installation stability and reliability of the outer door water cutter 2, and to ensure that it fits tightly against the edge of the window to achieve its function.
[0041] Furthermore, the outer water cutter 2 of the car door is located on the inner side of the outer door panel 1, so that, Figure 3 As shown, the exterior door water cutter 2 is not visible from the outside of the vehicle, thus concealing it beneath the exterior door panel 1. This prevents the exterior door water cutter 2 from being exposed to varying temperatures and humidity for extended periods, thereby extending its appearance and lifespan. It also prevents dust accumulation, maintaining the cleanliness of the exterior door water cutter 2. Furthermore, it enhances the flexibility and freedom of the window glass 5's vertical movement, thereby improving the vehicle's aesthetics, quality, and premium feel, enhancing the user experience, and achieving weight reduction and cost reduction.
[0042] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the door outer panel assembly 100 is equipped with an installation structure 3 on the door outer panel 1 to install and fix the door outer water cutter 2, so that the door outer water cutter 2 is located on the inner side of the door outer panel 1, thereby realizing the concealment of the door outer water cutter 2. This allows for freedom and diversity in door styling design, enhances the vehicle's aesthetics, quality, and premium feel. At the same time, it prevents the door outer water cutter 2 from being exposed to environments with changes in temperature and humidity for a long time, maintaining the cleanliness of the door outer water cutter 2, thereby improving the appearance quality of the door outer water cutter 2 and extending its service life. It also ensures the flexibility and freedom of the window glass 5 in raising and lowering, improves the user experience, and achieves lightweighting and cost reduction.
[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper part of the car door outer panel 1 has a mounting part 11. The mounting part 11 is used to install and fix the mounting structure 3. The outer side of the mounting part 11, that is, the side facing the outside of the vehicle, is constructed as a plane. This not only facilitates manufacturing and reduces costs, but also keeps the overall outer side of the car door outer panel 1 flat and smooth, which helps to improve the appearance of the vehicle.
[0044] The mounting structure 3 is connected to the inner side of the mounting part 11, that is, the mounting part 11 facing the inside of the vehicle is connected to the mounting structure 3. Thus, the mounting structure 3 and the mounting part 11 can be connected by welding, bolt connection, snap connection, adhesive or other connection methods to achieve a firm connection between the mounting structure 3 and the mounting part 11. The mounting part 11 also facilitates the installation of the door exterior water cutter 2 on the mounting structure 3 to ensure the installation stability of the door exterior water cutter 2. At the same time, the mounting structure 3 is also hidden under the door outer panel 1, which further enhances the external aesthetics of the door.
[0045] Furthermore, by setting the mounting structure 3 to connect to the inner side of the mounting part 11, the overall structural strength and stability of the door outer panel assembly 100 are also enhanced to a certain extent, which helps the door outer panel assembly 100 to better resist external impact forces and better protect the structural components inside the door.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting part 11 is configured to be inclined inward from bottom to top.
[0047] This provides space for lowering the installation position of the exterior water cutter 2, which facilitates the installation of the exterior water cutter 2 on the inner side of the exterior door panel 1, thus achieving the concealment of the exterior water cutter 2. At the same time, it adapts to the upper shape of the exterior water cutter 2 and the mounting structure 3, which facilitates the close connection between the mounting structure 3 and the mounting part 11, thereby reducing the existence of gaps, enhancing the sealing performance of the door, and effectively preventing rainwater, dust and other external impurities from entering the interior of the door through the gap between the mounting structure 3 and the mounting part 11.
[0048] In other embodiments, the mounting portion 11 is vertically arranged, meaning that there are no bends, steps, protrusions, etc., from bottom to top. This facilitates the installation of the exterior door weatherstripping 2, allowing it to be installed on the inside of the exterior door panel 1, thus achieving concealment of the exterior door weatherstripping 2 and simplifying manufacturing. In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the mounting structure 3 includes a mounting liner 31, which is used to support and fix the outer water cutter 2 of the door. The mounting liner 31 is fitted to the inner side of the outer door panel 1, that is, the shape of the mounting liner 31 is adapted to the outer door panel 1 so that the outer side of the mounting liner 31 can be tightly fitted to the inner side of the outer door panel 1, reducing the gap between the mounting liner 31 and the outer door panel 1. This can enhance the sealing performance of the door and effectively prevent rainwater, dust and other external impurities from entering the interior of the door through the gap between the mounting liner 31 and the outer door panel 1, thus affecting the normal use of other structural components.
[0049] In actual design, the mounting plate 31 can be connected to the inner side of the car door outer panel 1 by welding, bolting, gluing or other connection methods to ensure the stability and reliability of the connection between the mounting plate 31 and the car door outer panel 1.
[0050] Furthermore, the exterior water cutter 2 of the vehicle door is detachably connected to the mounting liner 31.
[0051] In other words, the exterior door water cutter 2 can be connected to the mounting plate 31 through detachable connection methods such as threaded connection, hook and hole, buckle and slot. This facilitates the installation and removal of the exterior door water cutter 2. When the exterior door water cutter 2 is damaged or aged and needs to be replaced, it can be easily removed from the mounting plate 31 for repair or replacement. This flexibility and convenience improves the ease of assembly.
[0052] In some embodiments, one of the door exterior water cutter 2 and the mounting liner 31 is provided with a snap-fit protrusion 61 and the other is provided with a snap-fit hole 62, and the snap-fit protrusion 61 and the snap-fit hole 62 are engaged in a snap-fit engagement.
[0053] In other words, a snap-fit protrusion 61 can be provided on the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door, and a snap-fit hole 62 can be provided on the mounting plate 31. Alternatively, a snap-fit hole 62 can be provided on the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door, and a snap-fit protrusion 61 can be provided on the mounting plate 31. The shape and size of the snap-fit protrusion 61 and the snap-fit hole 62 are adapted to each other. Thus, the snap-fit protrusion 61 can be tightly snapped into the snap-fit hole 62, realizing the snap-fit engagement between the snap-fit protrusion 61 and the snap-fit hole 62. This allows for a secure and detachable connection between the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door and the mounting plate 31. When installing the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door, simply snap the snap-fit protrusion 61 into the snap-fit hole 62 to complete the installation of the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door. When disassembling the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door, simply pull the snap-fit protrusion 61 out of the snap-fit hole 62 to disassemble the exterior water cutter 2 of the car door.
[0054] For example, in practice, such as Figure 2 As shown, a snap-fit protrusion 61 can be provided on the surface of the exterior water cutter 2 facing the mounting plate 31. A snap-fit hole 62 adapted to the snap-fit protrusion 61 is provided on the inner side of the mounting plate 31 opposite to the exterior water cutter 2. The snap-fit protrusion 61 snaps into the snap-fit hole 62 for snap-fit engagement, thereby realizing a stable connection between the exterior water cutter 2 and the mounting plate 31.
[0055] In some embodiments, the upper and lower parts of the mounting plate 31 are connected to the outer door panel 1, respectively, and the mounting plate 31 is spaced apart from the outer door panel 1 in the middle region in the vertical direction.
[0056] Specifically, such as Figure 1As shown, the mounting plate 31 has a bent overall structure. The mounting plate 31 protrudes in the middle area of the vertical direction away from the outer door panel 1, so that the middle area is separated from the outer door panel 1 by a certain distance. In this way, the connection between the mounting plate 31 and the outer door water cutter 2 can be inclined towards the outer door water cutter 2 to adapt to the structural shape of the outer door water cutter 2 and fit tightly with the outer door water cutter 2.
[0057] The upper and lower parts of the mounting plate 31 are close to and connected to the outer door panel 1 to ensure the installation stability and reliability of the mounting plate 31 and enhance the structural strength of the outer door panel assembly 100.
[0058] In some embodiments, the upper part of the mounting plate 31 is bonded to the outer door panel 1.
[0059] By adhesively bonding the upper part of the mounting plate 31 to the outer door panel 1, a secure connection between the mounting plate 31 and the outer door panel 1 is achieved. This also seals the connection gap between the mounting plate 31 and the outer door panel 1, as well as the connection gap between the mounting plate 31 and the outer door waterstop 2. This prevents moisture from the external environment from entering the inner side of the door through the contact point between the window glass 5 and the outer door waterstop 2, improving the sealing, waterproofing, and corrosion resistance of the outer door panel assembly 100. In practice, edge-folding adhesive can be used to connect the upper part of the mounting plate 31 to the outer door panel 1. This adhesive has high bonding strength and can avoid dents caused by heat deformation and stress concentration during welding, thereby improving the appearance quality of the vehicle body.
[0060] In other embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the lower part of the mounting plate 31 protrudes away from the outer door panel 1 to form a first adhesive groove 212. The first adhesive groove 212 is used to accommodate the expanding adhesive that is bonded to the outer door panel 1. The expanding adhesive can generate a certain volume expansion during the curing process, so that after filling the first adhesive groove 212, it can contact the outer door panel 1 and fit tightly with the outer door panel 1 to form a strong adhesive layer.
[0061] Therefore, by setting the first adhesive groove 212 and filling the first adhesive groove 212 with expanding adhesive to achieve a firm connection between the lower part of the mounting liner 31 and the outer door panel 1, the reliability and stability of the connection between the lower part of the mounting liner 31 and the outer door panel 1 can be improved, thereby further improving the overall structural strength and waterproof performance of the outer door panel assembly 100.
[0062] Furthermore, by firmly connecting the upper part of the mounting liner 31 to the outer door panel 1, the overall connection strength of the mounting liner 31 is greatly improved, preventing the mounting liner 31 from separating from the outer door panel 1 or from undergoing severe deformation when the outer door panel assembly 100 is subjected to impact. In addition, the mounting liner 31 and the outer door panel 1 support each other, which also greatly improves the overall structural strength and waterproof performance of the outer door panel assembly 100.
[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the mounting structure 3 also includes a reinforcing plate 32, which is used to increase the structural strength of the mounting structure 3 so that the mounting structure 3 can better support and fix the outer water cutter 2 of the car door, and prevent the mounting structure 3 from deforming when it is impacted, which would result in the inability to stably support and fix the outer water cutter 2 of the car door.
[0064] The upper part of the reinforcing plate 32 is bonded and / or welded to the inner side of the mounting liner 31, specifically, as shown in the example below. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper part of the reinforcing plate 32 is attached to the inner part of the mounting liner 31 located below the outer water cutter 2 of the door.
[0065] In other words, the upper part of the reinforcing plate 32 and the inner side of the mounting liner 31 can be connected by welding, by adhesive bonding, or by both adhesive bonding and welding.
[0066] Adhesive bonding not only securely connects the mounting liner 31 and the reinforcing plate 32, but also seals the gap between them, further preventing moisture from entering the interior of the door. In practice, structural adhesive can be used for this connection.
[0067] Welding can improve the connection strength and rigidity between the mounting liner 31 and the reinforcing plate 32, thereby improving the connection stability and reliability between the mounting liner 31 and the reinforcing plate 32, preventing the mounting liner 31 and the reinforcing plate 32 from separating when subjected to impact, and thus further improving the overall structural strength and rigidity of the door outer panel assembly 100.
[0068] In actual design, the upper part of the mounting liner 31 can be glued to the outer door panel 1 first, and then welded, or welded first and then glued, to increase the reliability and stability of the connection between the mounting liner 31 and the reinforcing plate 32, and improve the overall strength and rigidity of the outer door panel assembly 100.
[0069] In other embodiments, a second adhesive groove 321 is formed at the lower part of the reinforcing plate 32. The second adhesive groove 321 is used to accommodate the expanding adhesive that is bonded to the outer door panel 1. The expanding adhesive can generate a certain volume expansion during the curing process, so that after filling the second adhesive groove 321, it can contact the outer door panel 1 and fit tightly and connect with the outer door panel 1 to form a strong adhesive layer, thereby achieving a tight and strong connection between the reinforcing plate 32 and the outer door panel 1.
[0070] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the reinforcing plate 32 has a bent overall structure, with its central region protruding towards the outer door panel 1 in the vertical direction. The reinforcing plate 32 is located inside the mounting liner 31, and the opposite parts of the reinforcing plate 32 and the mounting liner 31 have roughly the same shape to facilitate support for the mounting liner 31. The lower part of the reinforcing plate 32, near the outer door panel 1, protrudes towards the inner door panel to form a second adhesive groove 321. The second adhesive groove 321 can be filled with expanding adhesive, so that after expansion, it contacts and tightly adheres to the outer door panel 1, forming a strong adhesive layer, thereby achieving a tight and secure connection between the reinforcing plate 32 and the outer door panel 1.
[0071] Therefore, by setting a second adhesive groove 321 and filling the second adhesive groove 321 with expanding adhesive, a firm connection between the lower part of the reinforcing plate 32 and the outer door panel 1 can be achieved, ensuring the sealing between the lower part of the reinforcing plate 32 and the outer door panel 1, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the connection between the lower part of the reinforcing plate 32 and the outer door panel 1, and further improving the overall structural strength of the outer door panel assembly 100.
[0072] In some embodiments, the upper part of the mounting liner 31 and the upper part of the door outer panel 1 are adapted to be connected by a pressing process.
[0073] In other words, the upper part of the mounting plate 31 and the mounting part 11 on the upper part of the outer door panel 1 can be connected by a pressing process. This allows the upper part of the mounting plate 31 to fit tightly against the upper part of the outer door panel 1, resulting in a high connection strength that can withstand various impacts during the use of the door. At the same time, it ensures that the mounting point of the outer door water cutter 2 has sufficient strength and rigidity. Furthermore, the pressing connection improves the sealing between the upper part of the mounting plate 31 and the upper part of the outer door panel 1, effectively preventing moisture, dust, and other external impurities from entering the interior of the door, thus improving waterproof performance. In addition, the pressing connection can also form a neat and beautiful connection edge, which can enhance the overall aesthetics of the door.
[0074] Therefore, by connecting the upper part of the mounting plate 31 to the upper part of the door outer panel 1 through the pressing process, the structural strength and sealing performance of the door outer panel assembly 100 are effectively improved, the strength and rigidity of the mounting point of the door outer water cutter 2 are improved, and the cleanliness and aesthetics of the door appearance are maintained.
[0075] In the actual design, the pressing position and method between the upper part of the mounting liner 31 and the upper part of the outer door panel 1 can be the same as the traditional process to ensure the possibility of co-production lines and facilitate manufacturing. Furthermore, before performing the pressing process, pressing adhesive can be applied first to achieve the bonding connection between the upper part of the mounting liner 31 and the upper part of the outer door panel 1, and then the pressing connection can be performed, thereby greatly improving the waterproof performance.
[0076] This utility model also proposes a vehicle.
[0077] The vehicle according to the present invention includes the door outer panel assembly 100 of any of the above embodiments.
[0078] By installing the aforementioned door outer panel assembly 100 in the vehicle, the vehicle's aesthetics, quality, and premium feel are effectively enhanced by concealing the door outer water cutter 2, thus improving the user experience. It also achieves weight reduction and lower costs. Furthermore, the installation of the mounting liner 31 and reinforcing plate 32 effectively improves the structural strength of the door, enhances the vehicle's ability to withstand external impacts, and also effectively improves the door's sealing and waterproofing performance, thereby extending the vehicle's service life.
[0079] In some embodiments, the vehicle further includes: a door inner panel assembly 200, which is located inside the door outer panel assembly 100, and at least one side edge of the door inner panel assembly 200 is connected to the door inner panel assembly 200 by a pressing process, that is, one side edge, two side edges, or multiple side edges of the door inner panel assembly 200 can be connected to the door inner panel assembly 200 by a pressing process.
[0080] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the inner door panel assembly 200 is located inside the outer door panel assembly 100. An inner door waterstop 4 is provided on the inner door panel assembly 200, and the window glass 5 is installed between the inner door waterstop 4 and the outer door waterstop 2. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown in the left-right direction, the left, right, upper, and lower edges of the outer door panel assembly 100 can be connected to the inner door panel assembly 200 through a pressing process, thereby achieving the connection between the inner door panel assembly 200 and the outer door panel assembly 100, making the two connected to form an integral door structure.
[0081] In actual design, the mounting liner 31 can be connected to the reinforcing plate 32 first. After connection, it can be combined with the inner door panel to form the inner door panel assembly 200. Then, the upper part of the mounting liner 31 can be connected to the upper part of the outer door panel 1 through the pressing process. Finally, the assembled inner door panel assembly 200 can be connected to the outer door panel assembly 100 through the pressing process to complete the assembly of the overall door structure.
[0082] Alternatively, the mounting plate 31 and the outer door panel 1 can be connected by pressing the edges to form the outer door panel assembly 100. After the reinforcing plate 32 and the inner door panel are assembled into the inner door panel assembly 200, the inner door panel assembly 200 and the outer door panel assembly 100 can be connected by pressing the edges to complete the assembly of the overall door structure. This method is flexible and convenient and can be assembled according to the actual situation.
