Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile parts, especially to a seat slide rail end cover mounting structure and automobile. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of automobile manufacturing, seat slide rails are usually installed on the vehicle body floor, and the vehicle body carpet is laid on the exposed area of the vehicle body floor to improve the comfort and aesthetics of the vehicle interior. However, in the traditional seat slide rail mounting structure, the edge of the vehicle body carpet often only contacts the seat slide rail through simple covering or edge insertion, lacking effective fixing measures. This installation method causes the edge of the vehicle body carpet to easily lift and shift during long-term use. On the one hand, the lifted carpet edge not only destroys the overall aesthetics of the vehicle interior, affecting the visual experience of the passengers; on the other hand, the lifted carpet edge can also become a stumbling object for passengers walking, increasing the risk of passengers tripping and posing a potential threat to driving safety. SUMMARY

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model aims to provide a seat slide rail end cover mounting structure and automobile, which not only avoids the risk of injury caused by passengers kicking the slide rail, but also solves the problem of the edge of the vehicle body carpet lifting and shifting.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides a seat slide rail end cover mounting structure, which comprises a vehicle body carpet, an outer slide rail, and end covers mounted on both ends of the outer slide rail. The edge of the vehicle body carpet is laid under the seat. The end cover is a plastic part. The end cover is clamped on the outer slide rail and wraps the outer side, bottom surface, and end surface of the outer slide rail. The bottom surface of the end cover extends downward to form a pressure table structure to press the edge of the vehicle body carpet onto the vehicle body floor.

[0005] In the above-mentioned scheme, the end cover is clamped on the outer slide rail through three buckle structures. One buckle structure is clamped on the bottom of the outer slide rail, and the other two buckle structures are clamped on the two side walls of the outer slide rail, respectively. The bottom buckle structure and the two side wall buckle structures cooperate with each other to form a stable triangular support structure, effectively preventing the end cover from loosening and falling off during use, and ensuring the long-term stable operation of the seat slide rail end cover mounting structure.

[0006] In the above-mentioned scheme, a plurality of convex ribs are provided on the bottom surface of the end cover, and the convex ribs cooperate to form a pressure table structure. When the end cover is installed on the outer slide rail through the buckle structure, the convex ribs will be embedded in the vehicle body carpet, using friction to firmly fix the carpet on the vehicle body floor.

[0007] The convex edges include arc-shaped convex edges arranged around the bottom surface edge of the end cover and strip-shaped convex edges arranged along the length direction of the outer slide rail.

[0008] The convex projections extend along the length direction of the outer slide rail and are fixed to the end cover, and the cross section of the convex projections is triangular.

[0009] The limiting block is arranged at the bending portion between the bottom surface and the side surface of the end cover and is in contact with the inner wall of the outer slide rail, so that the outer slide rail is radially limited between the inner wall of the end cover and the limiting block.

[0010] The utility model also provides a car which comprises the seat slide rail end cover mounting structure.

[0011] The utility model has the advantages of:

[0012] 1. The pressing table structure formed by extending the bottom surface of the end cover downward can accurately press and fix the edge of the car body carpet on the car body floor, effectively avoids the problem that the edge of the car body carpet is easy to be lifted and displaced in the traditional installation mode, greatly improves the fixing stability of the car body carpet and improves the safety in the car. 2. The end cover is not only clamped on the outer slide rail but also effectively wraps the outer side, the bottom surface and the end surface of the outer slide rail to form integrated protection. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0013] Figure 1 is a structural schematic view of the utility model.

[0014] Figure 2 is a structural schematic view of the pressing table structure.

[0015] Figure 3 is Figure 2 a bottom view of

[0016] Figure 4 is Figure 2Rear view. Detailed Implementation

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 4, a seat slide rail end cover mounting structure mainly consists of a car body carpet, an outer slide rail 1, and end covers 2 installed at both ends of the outer slide rail 1.

[0018] The edge of the vehicle carpet is laid under the seat. The end cap 2 is made of plastic and is snapped onto the outer slide rail 1, covering the outer side, bottom surface and end surface of the outer slide rail 1. The bottom surface of the end cap 2 extends downward to form a pressing platform structure to press the edge of the vehicle carpet tightly onto the vehicle floor.

[0019] Ideally, the end cap 2 is secured to the outer slide rail 1 via three snap-fit ​​structures. One snap-fit ​​structure is secured to the bottom of the outer slide rail 1, and the other two snap-fit ​​structures are secured to the side walls of the outer slide rail 1 respectively. The bottom snap-fit ​​structure and the side wall snap-fit ​​structures work together to form a stable triangular support structure, effectively preventing the end cap from loosening or falling off during use, and ensuring the long-term stable operation of the seat slide rail end cap installation structure.

[0020] Ideally, the end cap 2 has multiple protruding ribs 3 facing downwards, and these ribs 3 cooperate to form a pressing platform structure. When the end cap 2 is installed on the outer slide rail 1 via a snap-fit ​​structure, these protruding ribs 3 will embed into the vehicle carpet, using friction to firmly fix the carpet to the vehicle floor.

[0021] Preferably, the protruding rib 3 includes an arc-shaped protruding rib 31 arranged around the bottom edge of the end cover 2 and a strip-shaped protruding rib 32 arranged along the length of the outer slide rail 1. The combined design of the arc-shaped protruding rib 31 and the strip-shaped protruding rib 32 facilitates embedding into the vehicle carpet and effectively maintains the carpet in place.

[0022] Ideally, the inner wall of the end cap 2 and the outer wall of the outer slide rail 1 are spaced apart by several protrusions 4. The protrusions 4 extend along the length of the outer slide rail 1 and are fixed to the end cap 2, with a triangular cross-section. This design can provide a certain degree of cushioning and support, and by avoiding full-surface contact between the end cap 2 and the outer slide rail 1, it effectively reduces abnormal noises caused by friction and collisions between the two, thus improving the quietness and comfort during use.

[0023] Preferably, the end cover 2 is provided with a limiting block 5 on the side close to the end face of the outer slide rail 1, a plug joint gap for inserting the outer slide rail 1 is formed between the limiting block 5 and the end cover 2, the limiting block 5 is arranged at the bending part between the bottom face and the side face of the end cover 2, and is in contact with the inner wall of the outer slide rail 1, so that the outer slide rail 1 is radially limited between the inner wall of the end cover 2 and the limiting block 5. This radial limiting design can ensure that the end cover 2 always maintains a stable position after installation, and the design is ingenious, and by arranging the limiting block 5 at the bending part between the bottom face and the side face of the end cover 2, a certain limiting effect can be achieved in the left-right direction and the up-down direction.

[0024] It is worth noting that the seat slide rail end cover mounting structure is commonly used on automobiles.
