[0023] The embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0024] EMBODIMENT

[0025] As shown in the specific embodiment of the present application, Figures 1 to 5 The auxiliary pull rod of the automobile lower opening type tail door comprises a first guide pipe 5, a second guide pipe 6, a first fixed head 3, a second fixed head 4 and a spring 7. First, the first guide pipe 5 is sleeved outside the second guide pipe 6, and the first guide pipe 5 and the second guide pipe 6 can reciprocally move axially. Specifically, the first guide pipe 5 forms a first open end 8 at an end away from the first fixed head 3, the second guide pipe 6 forms a second open end 9 at an end away from the second fixed head 4, and the first guide pipe 5 and the second guide pipe 6 are mutually butted through the first open end 8 and the second open end 9.

[0026] The end of the first guide pipe 5 away from the first open end 8 is connected with the first fixed head 3, and the end of the second guide pipe 6 away from the second open end 9 is connected with the second fixed head 4, and then the spring 7 is sleeved outside the first guide pipe 5 and the second guide pipe 6. One end of the spring 7 is connected with the first fixed head 3, and the other end is connected with the second fixed head 4, wherein the spring 7 is a tensile spring. Under the action of no external force, the auxiliary pull rod of the automobile lower opening type tail door keeps the contraction state under the tension of the spring 7.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first fixed head 3 is provided with a first spring connecting structure on one side close to the first opening end 8, and the second fixed head 4 is provided with a second spring connecting structure on one side close to the second opening end 9. The first spring connecting structure and the second spring connecting structure are respectively connected with the two ends of the spring 7. The first spring connecting structure and the second spring connecting structure can be external threads provided on the fixed head, and are threadedly connected with the end of the spring 7. Alternatively, the first spring connecting structure and the second spring connecting structure can be hooks provided on the fixed head and are hookingly connected with the end of the spring 7. The specific connection mode is not limited.

[0028] The auxiliary pull rod of the lower-opening automobile tail gate further comprises a guide block 10. The first guide pipe 5 is provided with a guide groove in the middle thereof, and the guide groove is arranged along the moving direction of the first guide pipe 5. The guide block 10 is arranged on one end of the second guide pipe 6 facing the first guide pipe 5, and the guide block 10 is arranged in the guide groove in a reciprocating sliding manner. In the process of the extension and retraction of the first guide pipe 5 and the second guide pipe 6, the guide block 10 reciprocates along the guide groove of the first guide pipe 5, so that the relative movement of the first guide pipe 5 and the second guide pipe 6 is more stable. In order to prevent the guide block 10 from falling off during movement, a stop block 11 is arranged at the opening end of the guide groove facing the second guide pipe 6. The stop block 11 is arranged at the first opening end 8 of the guide groove of the first guide pipe 5 and is fixedly connected with the first opening end 8 of the first guide pipe 5. The stop block 11 is provided with a guide hole penetrating through the two ends in the middle thereof. The second guide pipe 6 penetrates through the guide block 10 and is connected with the guide block 10. The second guide pipe 6 penetrates through the guide hole of the stop block 11 and is slidingly connected with the stop block 11. Therefore, in the process of movement, the second guide pipe 6 can be guided along the guide groove. When the guide block 10 at the end of the second guide pipe 6 contacts the stop block 11, the guide block 10 abuts against the stop block 11, thereby limiting the continuous movement of the guide block 10, so as to achieve the purpose of limiting and resisting pulling.

[0029] The auxiliary pull rod of the lower-opening automobile tail gate further comprises a first protective pipe 1 and a second protective pipe 2. One end of the first protective pipe 1 is connected with the first guide pipe 5 through the first fixed head 3, and one end of the second protective pipe 2 is connected with the second guide pipe 6 through the second fixed head 4. The first protective pipe 1 is sleeved on the periphery of the second protective pipe 2 and can reciprocate along the axial direction. The first protective pipe 1 and the second protective pipe 2 are located outside the first guide pipe 5, the second guide pipe 6 and the spring 7, and protect the first guide pipe 5, the second guide pipe 6 and the spring 7.

[0030] The lower-opening door 14 is rotationally connected with the vehicle body 13 at the lower edge thereof. The auxiliary pull rod is rotationally connected with the vehicle body 13 through the first fixed head 3 and the movable piece 12, and is rotationally connected with the lower-opening door 14 through the second fixed head 4 and the movable piece 12. The movable piece 12 can be a bolt, which penetrates through the fixed head and is connected with the vehicle body 13 or the door 14. The first fixed head 3 is rotationally connected with the bolt, and the second fixed head 4 is rotationally connected with the bolt.

[0031] When the tail gate is closed, the first fixed head 3 and the second fixed head 4 are driven to approach each other with the closing of the tail gate, at this time, the spring 7 connecting the first fixed head 3 and the second fixed head 4 also produces shrinkage deformation, and the pulling force of the spring 7 becomes smaller and smaller with the shrinkage.

[0032] When the tail gate is opened, the first fixed head 3 and the second fixed head 4 are driven to move away from each other with the opening of the tail gate, at this time, the spring 7 connecting the first fixed head 3 and the second fixed head 4 also produces tensile deformation, and the pulling force of the spring 7 becomes larger and larger with the tensile deformation.

[0033] The utility model has been described above in combination with the best embodiment, but the utility model is not limited to the above disclosed embodiments, and should cover various modifications, equivalent combinations according to the essence of the utility model.
