Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicle body side panels. Specifically, the utility model relates to a side panel support connection structure and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the development of commercial vehicles, there are increasing requirements for aesthetics and quality perception. The side panels of commercial vehicles have always been key sealing and appearance structures on automobiles. The support structure between the inner and outer panels of traditional commercial vehicle side panels is weak, the support leg structure of the side panel inner panel is simple, and it is easy to spring back during stamping, resulting in poor dent resistance of the side panel outer panel, easy deformation, and a single structure design of the adhesive surface. When the expansion adhesive is over-coated, it will overflow and flow away, affecting the sealing and appearance of the side panel.

[0003] The utility model patent with the publication number CN212074214U discloses a side panel outer panel support bracket on December 4, 2020. It includes a sheet metal part in a "U" - shaped structure. The two ends of the sheet metal part are symmetrically provided with a first welding part and a second welding part welded to the side panel inner panel cross beam. On the side surfaces above the first welding part and the second welding part, there are oval first weight - reducing holes and second weight - reducing holes. On the upper end surface of the sheet metal part, there are two positioning holes for convenient processing, and the positioning holes are arranged diagonally on the top end surface of the sheet metal part. On the top end surface of the sheet metal part, there is a concave - groove reinforcing rib, and the concave - groove reinforcing rib is arranged on the center line of the top end surface of the sheet metal part. The included angle between the side surface and the top end surface of the sheet metal part is 105 degrees. This side panel outer panel support bracket cannot improve the dent resistance of the side panel outer panel, nor can it prevent the expansion adhesive from overflowing and flowing away. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a side panel support connection structure and a vehicle that can improve the dent resistance of the side panel outer panel and prevent the expansion adhesive from overflowing and flowing away in view of the deficiencies of the prior art.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0006] The side panel support connection structure includes a side panel inner panel and a side panel outer panel. The side panel outer panel is located on one side of the side panel inner panel. The end of the side panel inner panel is provided with a side panel support leg, and the side panel support leg is provided with an adhesive - bearing surface.

[0007] The adhesive - bearing surface is provided with a glue - applying groove, and the cross - section of the glue - applying groove is an arc structure.

[0008] One end of the glue - applying groove is provided with an anti - overflow glue step, and the gap between the anti - overflow glue step and the side panel outer panel gradually decreases from the glue - applying groove to the end of the side panel support leg.

[0009] An anti - spring - back rib is provided between the side panel support leg and the side panel inner panel.

[0010] The adhesive grooves are evenly distributed on the side support legs.

[0011] The side support legs are formed by bending the inner side panel.

[0012] The side support legs are located on both sides and the top of the inner side panel.

[0013] The vehicle includes a side panel, which includes the aforementioned side panel support connection structure.

[0014] The technical advantages of this invention are as follows: The side panel support connection structure of this invention improves the dent resistance of the outer side panel and the material utilization rate of the inner side panel, while solving problems such as inadequate support between the inner and outer side panels and overflow of the expanding adhesive coating. The inner side panel is bent to form side panel support legs, increasing the support area and improving the dent resistance and product quality of the outer side panel. An adhesive application groove is also provided to increase the load-bearing capacity of the expanding adhesive. Furthermore, an anti-overflow step is added to the adhesive-bearing surface to prevent overflow and loss of the expanding adhesive during over-application, thus improving bonding quality. Attached Figure Description

[0015] This manual includes the following figures, which illustrate the following:

[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the side support connection structure of this utility model;

[0017] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the BB section.

[0018] The markings in the diagram are: 1. Inner side panel; 2. Outer side panel; 3. Side support leg; 4. Adhesive-supporting surface; 5. Adhesive application groove; 6. Anti-overflow adhesive step; 7. Anti-rebound rib. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in order to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of this invention, and to facilitate its implementation.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the side panel support connection structure includes an inner side panel 1 and an outer side panel 2. The outer side panel 2 is located on one side of the inner side panel 1. The inner side panel 1 has a side panel support leg 3 at its end, and the side panel support leg 3 has a rubber-receiving surface 4. The rubber-receiving surface 4 is located on the corresponding surface of the side panel support leg 3 and the outer side panel 2. The rubber-receiving surface 4 is used to apply expanding rubber to fix the side panel support leg 3 and the outer side panel 2. Compared with the traditional side panel support leg, the length of the side panel support leg 3 is extended, increasing the support area for the outer side panel 2 and ensuring proper support between the inner and outer side panels. This structure prevents problems such as poor dent resistance of the outer panel and poor quality perception caused by the rebound of the side panel support leg 3 or insufficient support leg strength during vehicle production, thus improving product quality and competitiveness.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the adhesive-bearing surface 4 is provided with an adhesive-coating groove 5, which has an arc-shaped cross-section. The arc-shaped adhesive-coating groove 5 increases the load-bearing capacity of the expanding adhesive, ensuring that the expanding adhesive in the gap between the side support leg 3 and the outer side panel 2 can be evenly diffused after they come into contact, thus improving the uniformity of the expanding adhesive distribution and the sealing of the connection between the inner and outer side panels.

[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, one end of the glue application groove 5 is provided with an anti-overflow step 6. The gap between the anti-overflow step 6 and the outer side panel 2 gradually decreases from the glue application groove 5 to the end of the side support leg 3. After setting the arc-shaped glue application groove 5, the load-bearing capacity of the expanding glue is increased. At the same time, in order to prevent the expanding glue from overflowing, a leak-proof structure is added to the glue application surface to prevent the expanding glue from overflowing and losing, thus ensuring a long-term reliable support connection effect. The anti-overflow step 6 makes the gap between it and the outer side panel 2 gradually decrease, making it more difficult for the expanding glue to overflow, thus ensuring the aesthetics of the inner and outer side panels.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, anti-rebound ribs 7 are provided between the side support leg 3 and the inner side panel 1. Multiple anti-rebound ribs 7 are provided and correspond to the glue application grooves 5. The anti-rebound ribs 7 form an anti-rebound structure at the connection between the side support leg 3 and the inner side panel 1, and strengthen the structural strength at this point. This ensures the stability and reliable strength of the support gap between the inner and outer side panels, preventing the side support leg 3 from rebounding. The support leg strength is reliable, thereby improving the dent resistance and quality of the outer side panel 2.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the adhesive application grooves 5 are evenly distributed on the side support legs 3. The multiple adhesive application grooves 5 provide a uniform bonding effect for the side support legs 3.

[0025] like Figure 2As shown, the side support leg 3 is formed by bending the inner side panel 1. By bending to form the side support leg 3, the material of the inner side panel 1 is fully utilized. As part of the sheet metal of the inner side panel 1, the side support leg 3 ensures the overall performance of the inner side panel 1.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the side support legs 3 are located on both sides and the top of the inner side panel 1. This structure increases the bonding area, providing multi-point and uniform support for the outer side panel 2.

[0027] The vehicle includes a side panel, which includes the aforementioned side panel support connection structure.

[0028] This side panel support connection structure, while improving the dent resistance of the outer side panel 2 and the material utilization rate of the inner side panel 1, solves problems such as inadequate support between the inner and outer side panels and overflow of the expanding adhesive coating. The inner side panel 1 is bent to form the side panel support leg 3, increasing the support area and improving the dent resistance and product quality of the outer side panel 2. An adhesive application groove 5 is also provided to increase the load-bearing capacity of the expanding adhesive. Simultaneously, an anti-overflow step 6 is added at the adhesive-bearing surface 4 to ensure that the expanding adhesive does not overflow or leak during over-application, thus improving bonding quality.

[0029] The present invention has been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvements made using the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention; or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution to other situations without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
