[0036] With rapid economic development and continuous technological advancements, vehicles such as electric cars are becoming increasingly common.

[0037] Currently, the rigidity near the charging port of a vehicle is poor, which increases the risk of deformation and damage near the charging port during the plugging and unplugging of the charging gun.

[0038] This application provides a vehicle, please refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of a vehicle according to one or more embodiments of this application.

[0039] Vehicle 1 includes a charging port assembly 2. Vehicle 1 can be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a natural gas-powered vehicle, or a new energy vehicle. New energy vehicles can be pure electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, or range-extended electric vehicles, etc. Vehicle 1 can be a front-wheel drive vehicle, a four-wheel drive vehicle, etc. Vehicle 1 is equipped with a charging port assembly 2, which can form a charging port and provide fixation and support for the charging port. The charging port assembly 2 can be used to charge vehicle 1.

[0040] Combination Figures 2-5 As shown, Figure 2 This is a first-view schematic diagram of a charging port assembly according to one or more embodiments of this application;Figure 3 This is an exploded view of a charging port assembly according to one or more embodiments of this application; Figure 4 This is a second-view schematic diagram of a charging port assembly according to one or more embodiments of this application; Figure 5 It is based on Figure 4 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the charging port assembly along the AA direction.

[0041] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a charging port assembly 2, which includes a wheel cover outer plate 10, a main support 20, and a wheel cover support plate 30. The wheel cover outer plate 10 has openings 11 extending through both opposite sides of the outer plate 10. The main support 20 is connected to the wheel cover outer plate 10 and has a charging port 21, which is exposed through the openings 11 on the side of the wheel cover outer plate 10 away from the main support 20. The wheel cover support plate 30 is connected to the side of the wheel cover outer plate 10 away from the main support 20. At least a portion of the orthographic projection of the main support 20 on the wheel cover outer plate 10 coincides with the orthographic projection of the wheel cover support plate 30 on the wheel cover outer plate 10. The charging port assembly 2 also includes a plurality of first welding portions 40, which penetrate the wheel cover support plate 30, the wheel cover outer plate 10, and the main support 20 to connect the wheel cover outer plate 10 with the wheel cover support plate 30 and the main support 20.

[0042] The main support 20 provides support and protection for the charging port 21. The charging port 21 on the main support 20 communicates with the opening 11 on the wheel arch outer plate 10, allowing operators to easily connect charging equipment, such as a charging gun, to the vehicle 1 via the opening 11 and the charging port 21, thereby charging the vehicle 1. For example, a charging base can be arranged at the charging port 21. The charging base can be connected to the main support 20 and can be at least partially arranged between the charging port 21 and the opening 11. The charging base can be electrically connected to the vehicle 1's electrical system via the charging port 21, allowing operators to easily charge the vehicle 1 by connecting the charging equipment to the charging base. The wheel arch support plate 30 can be directly connected to the wheel arch outer plate 10, thereby providing support and protection for the wheel arch outer plate 10. The first welded part 40 can be formed by means including but not limited to spot welding. The first welded part 40 can be a molten nugget formed by metal melting, etc. The first welded part 40 penetrates the wheel cover support plate 30, the wheel cover outer plate 10 and the main body support 20, thereby fixing the wheel cover support plate 30, the wheel cover outer plate 10 and the main body support 20 together. Thus, the wheel cover support plate 30 provides support for the main body support 20, which is beneficial to improving the rigidity and stability of the main body support 20.

[0043] Through the above implementation method, the main support 20 forms a charging port 21, and multiple first welding parts 40 penetrate the wheel cover support plate 30, the main support 20 and the wheel cover outer plate 10, so that the wheel cover support plate 30, the main support 20 and the wheel cover outer plate 10 are welded to each other, thereby improving the rigidity and stability of the main support 20 and mitigating the risk of deformation damage near the charging port 21.

[0044] In some embodiments, the wheel arch outer plate 10 has a first welding surface 12, the main support 20 has a second welding surface 22, and the wheel arch support plate 30 has a third welding surface 31. The first welding surface 12 contacts the second welding surface 22 and the third welding surface 31, respectively, and at least a portion of the plurality of first welding portions 40 penetrates the first welding surface 12, the second welding surface 22, and the third welding surface 31. It is understood that one side of the first welding surface 12 may contact the second welding surface 22, and the other side may contact the third welding surface 31. By providing the first welding surface 12, the second welding surface 22, and the third welding surface 31, the first welding portions 40 are better formed so that the first welding portions 40 fix the wheel arch outer plate 10, the main support 20, and the wheel arch support plate 30 by penetrating the first welding surface 12, the second welding surface 22, and the third welding surface 31, thereby improving the connection stability between the wheel arch outer plate 10, the main support 20, and the wheel arch support plate 30.

[0045] In some embodiments, there are multiple first welding surfaces 12, second welding surfaces 22, and third welding surfaces 31. The multiple first welding surfaces 12 are spaced apart from each other, and one first welding surface 12 corresponds to one second welding surface 22 and one third welding surface 31. It is understood that since the multiple first welding surfaces 12 are spaced apart from each other, correspondingly, the multiple second welding surfaces 22 are also spaced apart from each other, and the multiple third welding surfaces 31 are also spaced apart from each other. Each first welding surface 12 corresponds to one second welding surface 22 and one third welding surface 31. A first welding surface 12, a second welding surface 22, and a third welding surface 31 can be interconnected through portions of multiple first welding parts 40. Exemplarily, the number of first welding surfaces 12 can be two, three, or more. Specifically, the number of first welding surfaces 12 can be three, the number of second welding surfaces 22 and third welding surfaces 31 can also be three, and the number of first welding parts 40 can be six. Two first welding parts 40 can be arranged and connected on one first welding surface 12, one second welding surface 22, and one third welding surface 31. Therefore, by setting multiple first welding surfaces 12, second welding surfaces 22 and third welding surfaces 31, the connection stability between the wheel cover outer plate 10, the wheel cover support plate 30 and the main body bracket 20 is further improved. At the same time, it is easier for multiple first welding parts 40 to be more evenly distributed at the contact connection points of the wheel cover outer plate 10, the wheel cover support plate 30 and the main body bracket 20.

[0046] In some embodiments, the main support 20 has a first reinforcing rib 23, and the wheel cover support plate 30 has a second reinforcing rib 32. The first reinforcing rib 23 is disposed between two adjacent second welding surfaces 22, and the second reinforcing rib 32 is disposed between two adjacent third welding surfaces 31. One first reinforcing rib 23 and one second reinforcing rib 32 are correspondingly disposed. Exemplarily, the number of second welding surfaces 22 can be three, the number of third welding surfaces 31 can also be three, and the number of first reinforcing ribs 23 can be two, with one first reinforcing rib 23 located between two adjacent second welding surfaces 22. Similarly, the number of second reinforcing ribs 32 can also be two. It is understandable that by setting the first reinforcing rib 23 between adjacent second welding surfaces 22, the rigidity of the main support 20 can be further improved, and by setting the second reinforcing rib 32 between adjacent third welding surfaces 31, the rigidity of the wheel cover support plate 30 can be improved. The first reinforcing rib 23 and the second reinforcing rib 32 are set in correspondence, which facilitates the cooperation between the first reinforcing rib 23 and the second reinforcing rib 32. This allows the corresponding positions of the main support 20 and the wheel cover support plate 30 to be further strengthened, thereby cooperating with the first welding part 40 to improve the rigidity and connection stability of the main support 20, the wheel cover outer plate 10 and the wheel cover support plate 30, and effectively alleviate the risk of deformation damage near the charging port 21.

[0047] In some embodiments, the first reinforcing rib 23 protrudes from the side opposite to the wheel arch outer plate 10 relative to the second welding surface 22, and the second reinforcing rib 32 protrudes from the side opposite to the wheel arch outer plate 10 relative to the third welding surface 31. It is understood that by having the first reinforcing rib 23 and the second reinforcing rib 32 protrude to opposite sides respectively, the first reinforcing rib 23 and the second reinforcing rib 32 can cooperate to form a reinforcing cavity, thereby further improving the rigidity of the main support 20. In some application scenarios, the protrusion depth of the first reinforcing rib 23 can be greater than or equal to 3mm and less than or equal to 10mm. For example, the protrusion depth of the first reinforcing rib 23 can be greater than or equal to 3mm and less than or equal to 6mm, or greater than or equal to 4mm and less than 7mm, or greater than or equal to 6mm and less than or equal to 10mm, etc. Specifically, the protrusion depth of the first reinforcing rib 23 can be, but is not limited to, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.5mm, 4.8mm, 5mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, etc. In some application scenarios, the protrusion depth of the second reinforcing rib 32 can be greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm. For example, the protrusion depth of the second reinforcing rib 32 can be greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm, or greater than or equal to 4 mm and less than 5 mm, etc. Specifically, the protrusion depth of the second reinforcing rib 32 can be, but is not limited to, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.2 mm, 4.5 mm, 4.8 mm, 5 mm, etc. Optionally, the protrusion depth of the first reinforcing rib 23 can be greater than the protrusion depth of the second reinforcing rib 32, thereby further improving the rigidity of the main support 20.

[0048] Combination Figures 6-10 , Figure 6 This is a third-view schematic diagram of a charging port assembly according to one or more embodiments of this application; Figure 7 It is based on Figure 6 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the charging port assembly along the BB direction; Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the main support structure of a charging port assembly according to one or more embodiments of this application; Figure 9 It is based on Figure 8 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the main support structure along the CC direction; Figure 10 It is based on Figure 8 The diagram shows a cross-sectional view of the main support structure along the DD direction.

[0049] In some embodiments, the main support 20 includes a first end 24 and a second end 25 disposed opposite to each other. A wheel arch support plate 30 is disposed on one side of the opening 11. The first end 24 and the wheel arch support plate 30 are disposed on the same side of the opening 11, and the second end 25 is disposed on the side of the opening 11 away from the wheel arch support plate 30. The charging port assembly 2 also includes a second welding portion 50, which penetrates the second end 25 and the wheel arch outer plate 10 to connect the second end 25 to the wheel arch outer plate 10. It is understood that the second welding portion 50 can be formed by methods including but not limited to spot welding, and the second welding portion 50 can be a weld nugget formed by molten metal, etc. The first welding part 40 connects the first end 24 of the main body bracket 20 to the outer plate of the wheel cover 10, and the second welding part 50 connects the second end 25 of the main body bracket 20 to the outer plate of the wheel cover 10. The second welding part 50 cooperates with the first welding part 40 to improve the connection stability between the main body bracket 20 and the outer plate of the wheel cover 10, which makes it easier to fix the relative positions of the charging port 21 and the opening 11, and alleviates the risk of deformation or displacement of the charging port 21 under force.

[0050] In some embodiments, the second end 25 has a plurality of spaced fourth welding surfaces 251, and the second welding portion 50 penetrates the fourth welding surfaces 251 and the wheel arch outer plate 10. The second end 25 also has a third reinforcing rib 252, which is disposed between two adjacent fourth welding surfaces 251 and protrudes from the side opposite to the wheel arch outer plate 10 relative to the fourth welding surfaces 251. It is understood that the second welding portion 50 can weld the second end 25 to the wheel arch outer plate 10 through the fourth welding surfaces 251. By providing the third reinforcing rib 252 between adjacent fourth welding surfaces 251, the rigidity of the main support 20 can be improved, and the third reinforcing rib 252 protrudes relative to the wheel arch outer plate 10, and can cooperate with the wheel arch outer plate 10 to form a reinforcing cavity, thereby further improving the rigidity of the main support 20 and mitigating the risk of deformation of the main support 20. In some application scenarios, the protrusion depth of the third reinforcing rib 252 can be greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm. For example, the protrusion depth of the third reinforcing rib 252 can be greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 6 mm, or greater than or equal to 4 mm and less than 7 mm, or greater than or equal to 6 mm and less than or equal to 10 mm, etc. Specifically, the protrusion depth of the third reinforcing rib 252 can be including but not limited to 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.2 mm, 4.5 mm, 4.8 mm, 5 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, etc.

[0051] In some embodiments, the main support 20 further has a third end 26 and a fourth end 27 disposed opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the distance between the first end 24 and the second end 25, and the third end 26 and the fourth end 27 are formed with flanges 271. By forming flanges 271 at the third end 26 and the fourth end 27, the rigidity of the main support 20 can be further improved, and the risk of deformation of the main support 20 can be mitigated. The width of the flange 271 can be greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm. For example, the width of the flange 271 can be greater than or equal to 3 mm and less than or equal to 4 mm, or greater than or equal to 4 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm, etc. Specifically, the width of the flange 271 can be, but is not limited to, 3 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.2 mm, 4.5 mm, or 5 mm, etc. The depth of the flange 271 can be greater than or equal to 3mm and less than or equal to 10mm. For example, the depth of the flange 271 can be greater than or equal to 3mm and less than or equal to 6mm, or greater than or equal to 4mm and less than 7mm, or greater than or equal to 6mm and less than or equal to 10mm, etc. Specifically, the depth of the flange 271 can be including but not limited to 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.5mm, 4.8mm, 5mm, 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, etc.

[0052] In some embodiments, the main support 20 includes a plurality of mounting portions 28 and a plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs 29. The mounting portions 28 are arranged around the charging port 21, and the plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs 29 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the charging port 21, with the fourth reinforcing ribs 29 being further away from the charging port 21 than the mounting portions 28. The mounting portions 28 can be used to mount components such as charging sockets, and can include, but are not limited to, mounting holes. For example, the charging socket can be mounted on the charging port 21 through the mounting portions 28, thereby fixing the charging socket relative to the main support 20. It should be noted that the main support 20 is at a higher risk of deformation at the mounting portions 28 than at other locations. By providing a plurality of fourth reinforcing ribs 29 on the outer periphery of the mounting portions 28 away from the charging port 21, the rigidity of the main support 20 at the mounting portions 28 can be significantly improved, thereby effectively mitigating the risk of deformation or damage to the main support 20 under stress. The fourth reinforcing rib 29 can protrude towards the side closest to the outer plate 10 of the wheel cover. The protrusion depth of the fourth reinforcing rib 29 can be greater than or equal to 2 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm. Specifically, the protrusion depth of the fourth reinforcing rib 29 can be, but is not limited to, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, 4.2 mm, 4.5 mm, 5 mm, etc. The width of the fourth reinforcing rib 29 can be greater than or equal to 10 mm and less than or equal to 15 mm. For example, the width of the fourth reinforcing rib 29 can be greater than or equal to 10 mm and less than or equal to 12 mm, or greater than or equal to 12 mm and less than or equal to 15 mm, etc. Specifically, the width of the fourth reinforcing rib 29 can be, but is not limited to, 10 mm, 12 mm, 12.5 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, or 15 mm, etc. In some application scenarios, by implementing the solution of this application, the stiffness at the mounting part 28 can be increased from 200 N / mm to 240 N / mm, thereby effectively mitigating the risk of deformation of the main support 20.

[0053] In summary, the charging port assembly 2 provided in this application includes a wheel cover outer plate 10, a main support 20, and a wheel cover support plate 30. The wheel cover outer plate 10 has openings 11 that penetrate both opposite sides of the wheel cover outer plate 10. The main support 20 is connected to the wheel cover outer plate 10 and has a charging port 21. The charging port 21 is exposed through the openings 11 on the side of the wheel cover outer plate 10 away from the main support 20.
