[0040] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] First Specific Embodiment

[0042] Please see Figure 1 The first specific embodiment of this application provides a vehicle handle box that can be installed on the inside of a car door. The vehicle handle box includes a protective panel 1, a main body 2, an outer side wall 3, and a gasket 4. Specifically: the protective panel 1 is fixedly installed on the inside of the car door; the main body 2 includes a bottom plate area 24 and a lower side wall 23, the lower side wall 23 and the protective panel 1 are located on opposite sides of the bottom plate area 24, forming an upward-opening box structure, and the first included angle α formed at the connection between the lower side wall 23 and the bottom plate area 24 is an acute angle; the gasket 4 can be a rubber gasket, used to lay on the bottom plate area 24, and the first side edge of the gasket 4 (… Figure 1 The right side of the middle gasket 4 extends into the first included angle α and abuts against the lower part of the side wall 23. It should be noted that the first included angle α mentioned in this application refers to the following: one side surface of the lower part of the side wall 23 serves as part of the side wall area of ​​the internal cavity of the handle box, and the top surface of the bottom plate area 24 serves as the bottom surface of the internal cavity of the handle box. The angle structure formed by the connection of the two at the bottom side of the internal cavity of the handle box is the first included angle α. This first included angle α is also the inner included angle of the bottom of the handle box near the lower part of the side wall 23.

[0043] In the vehicle handle box provided in the first specific embodiment of this application, since the first included angle α formed at the connection between the lower part of the side wall 23 and the bottom plate area 24 is an acute angle, the first side of the gasket 4 extends into the first included angle, thereby making the matching seam between the first side of the gasket 4 and the main body 2 almost invisible, that is, invisible under normal visual conditions. This reduces the problem of the matching seam between the side of the gasket 4 and the bottom side wall of the box being exposed, which helps to avoid the problem of the side of the gasket 4 lifting up, causing it to not fit properly or be uneven with the bottom plate area 24. It also avoids the gasket 4 being manually peeled off or torn, thus giving the gasket 4 a longer service life. Moreover, the above structural arrangement can also make the internal space of the handle box larger, thereby improving the vehicle's comfort, reliability, and aesthetics, and improving the riding experience.

[0044] In some embodiments, the second included angle b formed at the connection between the protective plate 1 and the bottom plate area 24 is also an acute angle, and the second side of the gasket 4 extends into this second included angle b, abutting against the protective plate 1. It should be noted that the second included angle b mentioned in this application refers to the angle formed by the connection of one side surface of the protective plate 1 as part of the sidewall area of ​​the handle box's internal cavity, and the top surface of the bottom plate area 24 as the bottom surface of the handle box's internal cavity. This second included angle b is also the inner included angle of the bottom of the handle box near the protective plate 1. The acute angle b makes the matching seam between the left side of the gasket 4 and the protective plate 1 less likely to touch, or even invisible, thus helping to avoid the problem of the gasket 4's side edge lifting, causing it to be uneven and not fitting snugly against the bottom plate area 24. It also avoids manually peeling or tearing the gasket 4, thus giving the gasket 4 a longer service life. Moreover, the above structural arrangement also allows for a larger internal space in the handle box. This improves vehicle comfort, reliability, and aesthetics, enhancing the passenger experience.

[0045] In summary, by using the first included angle a and the second included angle b, the bottom cross section of the internal cavity of the handle box is made into a trumpet shape. Under normal visual conditions, this can minimize problems such as the exposed and damaged matching seam between the side of the gasket 4 and the bottom side wall of the box.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the main body 2 further includes an upper sidewall 22 and a top surface area 21. The upper sidewall 22 is located above the lower sidewall 23, forming a curved surface structure that bends towards the lower sidewall 23 and then extends further away from the guard plate 1, thus creating a comfortable, hand-shaped convex curved surface. The side of the upper sidewall 22 away from the bottom plate area 24 and the guard plate 1 connects to the top surface area 21, which extends further away from the guard plate 1 relative to the upper sidewall 22. Furthermore, the top edge of the outer sidewall 3 is joined to the side of the top surface area 21 away from the guard plate 1. This ensures that the seam between the main body 2 and the outer sidewall 3 is located at the top of the handle box, eliminating seams in the finger-touching area and reducing the number of seams in the handle area, making it easier to clean and maintain, improving the user experience, and enhancing the aesthetics of the vehicle interior.

[0047] In some embodiments, the design can be optimized by increasing the depth of the vehicle handle box and the thickness of the hand-held operating area. For example, in the vehicle height direction Z, the internal cavity depth h of the vehicle handle box can be any value within the range of 60mm to 65mm; and / or, in the vehicle left-right direction Y, the maximum thickness d of the hand-held operating area formed by the lower side wall 23, the upper side wall 22, the top surface area 21, and the outer side wall 3 can be any value within the range of 45mm to 50mm. This results in a larger contact area between the hand-held operating area and the palm, and its hand-shaped convex surface is more in line with ergonomic requirements, providing not only greater comfort but also higher operational reliability.

[0048] Furthermore, in some embodiments, at least a portion of the upper sidewall 22 near the guard plate 1 is provided with an anti-slip surface; and / or, at least a portion of the lower sidewall 23 near the guard plate 1 is provided with an anti-slip surface. In specific implementations, the anti-slip surface can have various structural designs, for example: the anti-slip surface is provided with multiple strip-shaped protrusions 202 arranged sequentially in the vehicle height direction Z (e.g., ...). Figure 1 The diagram shows a cross-section of a strip-shaped protrusion; and / or, the anti-slip surface is provided with multiple dot-shaped protrusions distributed in a cluster; and / or, the anti-slip surface is provided with multiple strip-shaped grooves arranged sequentially in the Z-direction of vehicle height; and / or, the anti-slip surface is provided with multiple dot-shaped grooves distributed in a cluster. Through the above-mentioned anti-slip structure, slippage can be prevented when using the handle box.

[0049] In some embodiments, the main body 2 is a one-piece molded structural component, and the main body 2 and the outer side wall 3 are snap-fitted together. For details of the snap-fitting method, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The circular dashed area K is shown in the diagram. The main body 2 has a first engaging portion 201 near the outer wall 3, and the outer wall 3 has a second engaging portion 301 near the main body 2. The first engaging portion 201 includes multiple through holes or grooves arranged sequentially in the vehicle height direction Z, and the second engaging portion 301 includes cantilever arms or stiffeners that can engage with the through holes or grooves. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the second engaging portion 301 includes through holes or grooves arranged sequentially in the vehicle height direction Z, and the first engaging portion 201 includes cantilever arms or stiffeners that can engage with the through holes or grooves. This engaging structure ensures high reliability of the handle box in the vehicle height direction Z, making it less prone to breakage and misalignment.

[0050] Second specific embodiment

[0051] Please see Figure 2The second embodiment of this application provides a vehicle handle box, which differs from the first embodiment described above only in that: the main body 2 further includes an inner sidewall 25, which is located on the side of the bottom plate area 24 near the guard plate 1, connected to the bottom plate area 24, and connected to the guard plate 1, and the third included angle c formed at the connection between the inner sidewall 25 and the bottom plate area 24 is an acute angle. It should be noted that the third included angle c mentioned in this application refers to: one side surface of the inner sidewall 25 serves as part of the sidewall area of ​​the internal cavity of the handle box, and the top surface of the bottom plate area 24 serves as the bottom surface of the internal cavity of the handle box. The angle formed by the connection of the two at the bottom side of the internal cavity of the handle box is the third included angle c, which is also the inner included angle of the bottom of the handle box near the guard plate 1. The acute-angled third included angle c makes the matching seam between the left side and the inner sidewall 25 of the gasket 4 less likely to be touched, or even invisible. This helps prevent the side of the gasket 4 from warping, which could cause it to misalign or become uneven with the base plate area 24. It also prevents the gasket 4 from being manually peeled off or torn, thus extending its service life. Furthermore, this structural design allows for a larger internal space in the handle box. This improves vehicle comfort, reliability, and aesthetics, enhancing the passenger experience.

[0052] like Figure 2 As shown, the first included angle a and the third included angle c make the bottom cross section of the internal cavity of the handle box flare out into a trumpet shape. Under normal visual conditions, this can minimize problems such as the exposed and damaged matching seam between the side of the gasket 4 and the bottom side wall of the box.

[0053] In summary, this application also provides a vehicle in which the vehicle door is provided with a door handle box as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0054] Finally, it should be noted that in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed.

[0055] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, with each embodiment focusing on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other.

[0056] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use this application.
