Detailed Implementation

[0031] The core of this utility model lies in disclosing a front trunk to improve the stability and ease of use of the storage space in the front compartment of a vehicle.

[0032] Another objective of this invention is to provide a vehicle that includes the aforementioned front trunk.

[0033] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Furthermore, the embodiments shown below do not limit the scope of the invention as described in the claims. Additionally, the complete contents of the configurations shown in the following embodiments are not limited to those necessary for the solution of the invention as described in the claims.

[0034] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the front trunk provided in this embodiment of the utility model mainly includes a trunk body 10 and a cover plate 20. The trunk body 10 is used to provide storage space for items, and has an opening on one side for taking items in and out. The cover plate 20 is located at the opening of the trunk body 10 so that the opening of the trunk body 10 can be opened and closed to meet the needs of placing and taking out items.

[0035] In order to reduce the number of parts while meeting the vibration resistance requirements of the front trunk, the box body 10 and the cover plate 20 in this embodiment of the present invention are integrally molded from foamed material and assembled during use. Due to the strength limitation of foamed material, it is difficult to fix it directly to the vehicle body. Therefore, this embodiment of the present invention also provides a first fixing bracket 110 and a second fixing bracket 120 in the box body 10. The first fixing bracket 110 and the second fixing bracket 120 are both rigid brackets. Preferably, for the foamed material box body 10, the first fixing bracket 110 and the second fixing bracket 120 are both embedded in the box body 10. Specifically, the first fixing bracket 110 is disposed at the bottom of the box 10 so that the bottom of the box 10 has a fixing point and can be stably disposed on the vehicle body; while the second fixing bracket 120 extends from at least one side wall of the box 10. It should be noted that the first fixing bracket 110 is actually located entirely at the bottom of the box 10 and is not visible. Therefore, the protruding structure of the second fixing bracket 120 provides more fixing points for the box 10 on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also provide a positioning base. When the assembly personnel install the front trunk, they can connect with the vehicle body through the fixing points on the second fixing bracket 120 to determine the position of the box 10.

[0036] It should be noted that both the first fixing bracket 110 and the second fixing bracket 120 are provided with fixing holes for bolts to pass through and fix the box 10. When installing the box 10, the bolts need to be fitted with commonly used standard parts such as bushings, which will not be elaborated here. At the same time, the bottom of the box 10 is also provided with a drain hole 130 so that if water accidentally enters the box 10, the water inside the box 10 can be drained in time through the drain hole 130 to avoid damage to the items.

[0037] Regarding the structure of the cover plate 20, it is detachably assembled to the opening of the box 10. This allows it to close the box 10 during assembly, protecting the contents, and can be completely disassembled during use, allowing the opening of the box 10 to be fully opened for placing larger items. To ensure stability when closing the box 10, the cover plate 20 uses a snap-fit ​​structure, such as a buckle or slot, to securely hold the opening. It should also be noted that a lock mechanism is provided at the connection between the cover plate 20 and the box 10, enabling locking and unlocking of the box 10 and the cover plate 20. This lock mechanism uses standard locks commonly found in front-loading storage compartments and similar equipment, and will not be described in detail here.

[0038] In the above embodiments, the foaming material of the box body 10 and the cover plate 20 is preferably polypropylene plastic (EPP) foaming material, which has the advantages of light molding weight and high strength, and can realize vibration reduction in the front trunk, thereby giving the front compartment a certain noise reduction and heat preservation performance; at the same time, the EPP foaming material can also make the box body 10 and the cover plate 20 have a better sealing effect through its own interference fit, so as to achieve the waterproof and dustproof function of the front trunk without the need to set other components.

[0039] To further optimize the above technical solution, in some embodiments of this utility model, the cover plate 20 mainly includes a first cover 210 and a second cover 220. The connection area of ​​the first cover 210 and the second cover 220 is located within the opening area of ​​the box body 10, and the first cover 210 and the second cover 220 are hinged in the connection area to allow relative rotation. The first cover 210 and the second cover 220 can cover the opening of the box body 10 when unfolded. Based on this, the second cover 220 is assembled on the box body 10. While the cover plate 20 completely closes the opening of the box body 10, the first cover 210 can rotate relative to the second cover 220, so that only the first cover 210 opens the area covered by the opening of the box body 10. At this time, items can be put in and taken out of the space inside the box body 10 through the smaller opening area. For smaller items, opening only the first cover 210 is simple and does not require disassembling the entire cover plate 20, resulting in a more convenient operation.

[0040] It should be noted that, based on the above structure, the first lid 210 and the second lid 220 can respectively engage and limit the opening edge of the box body 10. For the segmented first lid 210 and second lid 220, when a single lid is attached to the opening position of the box body 10, they can both engage and limit the opening. It should also be noted that, considering actual usage needs, it is preferable that the area of ​​the first lid 210 is not less than the area of ​​the second lid 220, so as to avoid the opening being too small when the first lid 210 is opened alone, making it difficult to meet various placement needs in application scenarios. At the same time, the cover plate 20 can also be removed from the box body 10, so that both the first lid 210 and the second lid 220 can be separated from the box body 10, thus giving the box body 10 a fully open space for taking out and putting in items.

[0041] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, in order to reduce the weight and production cost of the cover plate 20, the first box cover 210 and the second box cover 220 do not use other components, such as a pivot, but achieve a rotatable connection. Specifically, both the first box cover 210 and the second box cover 220 are made of foamed material. At the connection position of the first box cover 210 and the second box cover 220, the first box cover 210 is integrally formed with a limiting protrusion 2110. The limiting protrusion 2110 preferably has a spherical protruding outer wall structure, and preferably the limiting protrusion 2110 protrudes from both sides along the protrusion direction. Correspondingly, the second box cover 220 is also integrally formed with a recessed groove 2210 in the connection area. The limiting protrusion 2110 and the recessed groove 2210 are set one-to-one. With the help of the molding process of the foamed material and a certain compression adjustment capability, the limiting protrusion 2110 in the first box cover 210 is inserted into the recessed groove 2210 to realize the hinge of the first box cover 210 and the second box cover 220. The above-mentioned assembly hinge structure does not require the installation of other structural components, reducing production costs and weight. Furthermore, the interference fit between the limiting protrusion 2110 and the recessed groove 2210 can improve the sealing effect at the hinge position of the first cover 210 and the second cover 220, thereby improving the waterproof and dustproof effect of the front trunk.

[0042] To improve the assembly effect between the second lid 220 and the box body 10, in some embodiments of this utility model, the opening edge of the box body 10 is provided with a hook and loop fastener male face 140, and the second lid 220 is correspondingly provided with a hook and loop fastener female face 2220 to be bonded and fixed to the hook and loop fastener male face 140. The bonded box body 10 and the second lid 220 can provide a good support foundation when the first lid 210 rotates relative to the second lid 220, through the bonding structure between the second lid 220 and the box body 10. At the same time, when it is necessary to remove the second lid 220 and the first lid 210 as a whole relative to the box body 10, the hook and loop fastener structure can also realize a convenient disassembly and assembly process.

[0043] Based on the above embodiments, the locking structure for limiting and locking the cover 20 and the box 10 can be a slot-hole limiting structure. Specifically, a limiting pin 150 is provided at the top edge of the opening of the box 10, and preferably, limiting pins 150 are provided on both opposite edges of the opening of the box 10. Correspondingly, both the first box cover 210 and the second box cover 220 are provided with limiting grooves 230. The limiting groove 230 on the second box cover 220 maintains a normal locking and limiting effect with a portion of the limiting pins 150 on the box 10, thereby improving the stability of the second box cover 220 on the box 10. When the first box cover 210 is fastened to the opening of the box 10, it can also be locked in place by engaging with the limiting pins 150 through the limiting groove 230.

[0044] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, a hollow groove 160 is provided on the edge of the opening on one side of the box body 10, so that one side of the box body 10 forms a handle-like structure. This not only makes the box body 10 easy to hold and assemble, but also, correspondingly, the side of the second box cover 220 away from the first box cover 210 is interference-fitted into the hollow groove 160 to achieve a stable connection with the box body 10. The snap-fit ​​assembly structure between the second box cover 220 and the box body 10 does not require the setting of other structural components, and the second box cover 220 can be disassembled and assembled, which improves the compactness and sealing of the structure.

[0045] It should also be noted that, in order to improve the sealing performance of the box 10, a protrusion 2230 is provided on one side of the second cover 220 in the normal direction of the opening surface of the box 10. The corresponding wall surface of the box 10 is a bent plane with a height difference, so as to cooperate with the protrusion 2230 to present a staggered connection contact fit structure. The staggered connection structure can provide more sealing points and improve the sealing effect between the box 10 and the second cover 220.

[0046] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom of the box 10 is an inclined or arc-shaped structure to form a flow guiding structure, and the drain hole 130 is located at the lowest point of the bottom of the box 10. At the same time, the drain hole 130 is provided with a sealing plug, and the operator can remove the sealing plug as needed to meet the drainage requirements of the box 10.

[0047] Furthermore, in the front trunk provided in this embodiment of the utility model, the rotation range of the first trunk cover 210 relative to the second trunk cover 220 is 0-70°, so that the first trunk cover 210 has sufficient opening space to meet the needs of taking and putting in items, while also enabling the first trunk cover 210 to maintain an inclined opening structure, which can be adapted to the inclined opening structure of the hood of the vehicle's front compartment, avoiding the space occupation caused by the vertical opening of the first trunk cover 210.

[0048] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, two first fixing brackets 110 are arranged at intervals and in parallel, and each first fixing bracket 110 is provided with two connecting holes at intervals for bolts to pass through and install; while two second fixing brackets 120 are arranged at intervals and in parallel, and each second fixing bracket 120 is provided with at least one connecting hole for bolts to pass through and install on the side of the second fixing bracket 120 extending from the box body 10, so as to fix the connection on the side of the second fixing bracket 120 extending from the box body 10.

[0049] Furthermore, this utility model embodiment also provides a vehicle, which has a front trunk provided in any of the above embodiments in the front cabin position, and the front trunk is fixedly connected to the vehicle body by screws passing through the first fixed bracket 110 and the second fixed bracket 120. It should be noted that since the front trunk has the technical effects provided in any of the above embodiments, the vehicle also has the above technical effects, which will not be repeated here.
