Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and more particularly to a standard bracket for connecting glass sunroofs and sunshade frames. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of new energy vehicles, the configuration requirements for car sunroofs are increasing. To improve passenger comfort, most car manufacturers choose to equip them with sunshade systems. The integration of the sunshade system with the glass sunroof requires fixing via connecting brackets. Most existing connecting brackets are made by sheet metal stamping or injection molding. Due to the different styling characteristics of each car manufacturer, the curvature of the glass sunroof varies. The connecting brackets need to be designed to match the curvature of the glass sunroof, which results in poor adaptability. Each model requires a new set of connecting brackets, increasing development costs. Therefore, this application provides a standard bracket to adapt to glass sunroofs with different curvatures for connection and fixing. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to enable the connecting brackets used to connect glass canopies and sunshade frames to adapt to different glass curvatures and reduce the development cost of bracket molds, this application provides a standard bracket for connecting glass canopies and sunshade frames.
[0004] The standard bracket for connecting glass canopies and sunshade curtain frames provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A standard bracket for connecting a glass canopy and a sunshade frame includes an adhesive base and a connecting mounting column. The adhesive base has an installation opening on its surface for connecting the mounting column. The inner wall of the installation opening has an arc-shaped adjustment surface. The bottom wall of the connecting mounting column located inside the installation opening has an arc-shaped mating surface. The connecting mounting column and the adhesive base form a rotational fit through the arc-shaped adjustment surface and the arc-shaped mating surface.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the bonding base and the connecting mounting column can rotate relative to each other through the arc-shaped adjustment surface and the arc-shaped fitting surface, thereby enabling the standard bracket of this application to adapt to different glass curvatures. Based on the actual curvature of the glass canopy, the angle between the bonding base and the connecting mounting column can be adjusted to achieve adaptive adjustment. This can effectively reduce the development cost of bracket molds, as well as the development of subsequent single-item inspection tools and material input, effectively saving production costs.
[0007] Preferably, the connecting mounting post includes a metal screw post and a plastic part formed on the outside of the metal screw post, and the arc-shaped mating surface is formed on the surface of the plastic part.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, molding plastic parts onto the outside of metal screw posts can achieve the goal of lightweighting standard brackets, reducing weight and simplifying installation.
[0009] Preferably, the plastic part has several limiting angles on its peripheral wall, and the adhesive base has several limiting grooves on its surface for setting the limiting angles, and the limiting grooves are connected to the mounting port.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, setting a limiting angle can prevent the connecting mounting column from rotating along with the nut when the nut is tightening the metal screw column, thus preventing the locking torque from being reached. This further simplifies the installation process of the standard bracket of this application and improves the ease of assembly.
[0011] Preferably, the contact surface between the limiting angle and the limiting groove is an inclined surface.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, setting the contact surface between the limiting angle and the limiting groove as an inclined surface can effectively reduce the interference between the limiting angle and the limiting groove when adjusting the angle between the adhesive base and the connecting mounting column, thereby improving the ease of use of the standard bracket of this application.
[0013] Preferably, the number of limiting angles is set to 4, and the four limiting angles are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the plastic part.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution and uniformly setting the number of limiting angles to four, the adhesive base and the connecting mounting column can be adapted to rotation in four directions (front, back, left, and right), thereby further improving the applicability of the standard bracket of this application.
[0015] Preferably, the adhesive base and the connecting mounting column are adapted to be bonded to curved surfaces within 9° in the front, back, left, and right directions.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, it is possible to facilitate the subsequent assembly between the sunshade frame and the glass canopy, and at the same time, the standard bracket of this application can be adapted to most glass curvatures.
[0017] Preferably, the bottom wall of the plastic part is formed with a flat frame fitting surface.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, setting the frame fitting surface can improve the flatness of the installation between the sunshade frame and the standard bracket, so as to prevent the two from loosening and improve the overall stability and safety.
[0019] Preferably, the top of the plastic part is slotted, and a reinforcing rib structure is formed between the inner wall of the slot and the metal screw post.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the reinforcing rib structure set in the top groove of the plastic part can effectively improve the structural strength of the connecting mounting column, so as to prevent the plastic part from deforming, thereby ensuring the structural integrity of the standard bracket of this application and extending its service life.
[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0022] 1. The adhesive base and the connecting mounting column can rotate relative to each other through the arc-shaped adjustment surface and the arc-shaped fitting surface, so that the standard bracket of this application can be adapted to different glass curvatures. Based on the actual curvature of the glass canopy, the angle between the adhesive base and the connecting mounting column can be adjusted to achieve adaptive adjustment. This can effectively reduce the development cost of bracket molds, as well as the development of subsequent single-item inspection tools and material input, thus effectively saving production costs.
[0023] 2. Molding plastic parts onto the outside of metal screw posts can achieve the goal of lightweighting standard brackets, reducing weight and simplifying installation;
[0024] 3. Setting a limiting angle can prevent the connecting mounting column from rotating along with the nut when the nut is tightening the metal screw post, thus preventing the locking torque from being reached. This further simplifies the installation process of the standard bracket of this application and improves the ease of assembly. Setting the number of limiting angles evenly to 4 allows the adhesive base and the connecting mounting column to be adapted to rotation in four directions (front, back, left, and right), thereby further improving the applicability of the standard bracket of this application.

[0030] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0031] This application discloses a standard bracket for connecting a glass canopy and a sunshade frame. (Refer to...) Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 It includes an adhesive base 1 and a connecting mounting post 2. The connecting mounting post 2 includes a metal screw post 21 located in the center and a plastic part 22 wrapped around the metal screw post 21. The top of the plastic part 22 is slotted, and a reinforcing rib structure 224 is formed between the inner wall of the top groove of the plastic part 22 and the metal screw post 21 to reduce the probability of the plastic part 22 deforming due to extrusion.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The surface of the adhesive base 1 has a through-hole for the mounting post 2. The bottom wall inside the mounting hole 11 has an arc-shaped adjustment surface 12. The bottom wall of the plastic part 22 has an arc-shaped mating surface 221 corresponding to the arc-shaped adjustment surface 12. Thus, the angle between the adhesive base 1 and the mounting post 2 can be adjusted through the arc-shaped adjustment surface 12 and the arc-shaped mating surface to adapt to different glass curvatures.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The plastic part 22 has four limiting angles 222 integrally formed around its perimeter. These four limiting angles 222 are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the plastic part 22. The surface of the adhesive base 1 is provided with a limiting groove 13 for the limiting angles 222 to be set. The limiting groove 13 is connected to the mounting port 11. The contact surfaces between the limiting angles 222 and the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13 are both arc-shaped to prevent interference when the adhesive base 1 and the connecting mounting post 2 are adjusted at an angle. Under the action of the limiting angles 222, the metal screw post 21 can be prevented from rotating relative to the adhesive base 1 when it is fixed with a nut, thus improving the stability and convenience of the connection. Under the action of the limiting angles 222, the adhesive base 1 and the connecting mounting post 2 can adapt to rotation within 9° in four directions (front, back, left, and right), thereby adapting to most glass curvatures.
[0034] Reference Figure 3 The bottom of the plastic part 22 is formed with a frame fitting surface 223. The bottom wall of the frame fitting surface 223 is flat so that it can fit with the sunshade frame, reducing the probability of the sunshade frame loosening relative to the plastic part 22 and improving the installation stability with the sunshade frame.
[0035] The implementation principle of a standard bracket for connecting a glass canopy and a sunshade frame in this application embodiment is as follows: The required standard bracket is placed in the positioning fixture. Based on the curvature of the glass, the angle of the bonding base 1 and the connecting mounting column 2 is adjusted. Positioning is achieved by the metal screw column 21 in the positive Z direction. Adhesive is applied to the surface of the bonding base 1. At the same time, adhesive is injected into the gap between the connecting mounting column 2 and the bonding base 1. The glass is pressed onto the standard bracket through the positioning fixture. After curing, the glass canopy assembly with the standard bracket bonded is removed for subsequent assembly with the sunshade frame.
[0036] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
