Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts manufacturing technology, specifically a streamlined door sill panel structure. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, car door sill panels on the market typically feature a straight-line shape with multiple straight ridges or grooves on the surface to achieve both anti-slip and aesthetic effects. This design gives the panel a simple and elegant appearance, and the assembly process is relatively simple. However, as market demands for automotive aesthetics continue to rise, consumers expect door sills to have a more attractive shape. Market demand is shifting towards designing the ends of the sill panels with large rounded arcs, giving the sill a streamlined aesthetic, and also requiring several corresponding rounded grooves on the surface of both ends.
[0003] However, existing pedal panel parts are generally composed of an aluminum extrusion skeleton and aluminum die-cast ends, which cannot meet the design requirements of large arc surfaces at both ends of the panel and arc grooves on the surface. The transition between the straight grooves and the arc ends is not coordinated, affecting the overall aesthetics. In addition, the positioning accuracy of the decorative strip is low, and it is easy to deform or misalign.
[0004] To solve this problem, a streamlined door sill panel structure is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and solve at least one of the technical problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model proposes a streamlined door pedal panel structure.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a streamlined car door pedal panel structure, comprising an aluminum frame, two ends, two end decorative parts, a stainless steel decorative component, two contoured 3M adhesives and 3M adhesive, wherein the aluminum frame is formed by aluminum extrusion process, the two ends are formed by aluminum die casting process, and the stainless steel decorative component is composed of stainless steel decorative strip A, stainless steel decorative strip B, stainless steel decorative strip C and stainless steel decorative strip D.
[0007] Preferably, the aluminum frame end face is provided with a groove, the 3M adhesive is pasted inside the groove, and a hidden groove is provided on one side of the groove. The stainless steel decorative component is made of stainless steel decorative strips A, B, C, and D, which are sequentially installed into the hidden groove. Stainless steel decorative strips A, B, C, and D are bonded to the 3M adhesive. The 3M adhesive simultaneously bonds the aluminum frame and the stainless steel decorative component. The hidden groove provides precise positioning for the stainless steel decorative strips, which can effectively prevent the decorative strips from deforming or misaligning. This not only improves installation efficiency but also ensures the aesthetics and stability of the overall structure.
[0008] Preferably, the two ends of the aluminum frame are connected to two end caps, and the two contoured 3M adhesives are bonded to the surfaces of the two end caps. The contoured 3M adhesives can firmly bond the stainless steel decorative strips and the end caps, further enhancing the stability of the structure and helping to achieve the design requirements of the large arc surface and surface arc groove at both ends of the pedal.
[0009] Preferably, the two end decorative pieces are provided with positioning ribs and bolt posts. The connection between the aluminum frame and the end pieces has a pre-reserved slot. The positioning rib at the front end of the end decorative piece is inclined and placed into the slot to prevent the groove on the panel surface from being misaligned or raised after the end decorative piece is installed, which would affect the overall appearance. The bolt posts ensure the tightness of the connection. During installation, the screw is driven in from the bottom of the end piece. This design avoids the user from seeing the screw from the front of the product, and effectively improves the integrity of the product while ensuring structural stability.
[0010] Preferably, the two end decorative pieces are installed on one side of the two ends and connected together, which facilitates matching installation and improves aesthetics.
[0011] Preferably, the two ends of the aluminum frame are assembled with bolts, and the two end decorative pieces are assembled with screws to ensure the strength of the overall structure.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0023] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-5 A streamlined car door pedal panel structure includes an aluminum frame 1, two end caps 2, two end cap decorative pieces 3, a stainless steel decorative component, two contoured 3M adhesive pieces 8 and 9. The aluminum frame 1 is formed by aluminum extrusion, and the two end caps 2 are formed by aluminum die casting. The stainless steel decorative component is composed of stainless steel decorative strips A4, B5, C6, and D7. The two ends of the aluminum frame 1 are connected to the two end caps 2. The two contoured 3M adhesive pieces 8 are bonded to the surface of the two end caps 2. The contoured 3M adhesive pieces 8 can firmly bond the stainless steel decorative component and the end caps 2, further enhancing the stability of the structure and helping to achieve the design requirements of large arc curved surfaces and surface arc grooves at both ends of the pedal. The two end cap decorative pieces 3 are installed on one side of the two end caps 2 and connected, which is conducive to matching installation and improving aesthetics.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 The aluminum frame 1 is assembled with bolts at both ends and the two end pieces 2, and the two end decorative pieces 3 are assembled with screws to ensure the strength of the overall structure.
[0026] Please see Figure 4A streamlined door sill panel structure is described, featuring two end decorative pieces 3 equipped with positioning ribs and bolt posts. A groove is pre-drilled at the connection between the aluminum frame 1 and the end piece 2. The positioning rib at the front end of the end decorative piece 3 is inclined and inserted into the groove to prevent misalignment or warping of the grooves on the panel surface after installation, thus affecting the overall appearance. The bolt posts ensure a secure connection. During installation, the shape of the end decorative piece 3 presses firmly against the stainless steel decorative components, preventing the decorative strips from warping. Furthermore, the shape of the end decorative piece 3 matches the arc shape of the four stainless steel decorative strips, making the surface arc more pronounced and improving the overall aesthetics. During installation, screws are driven in from the bottom of the end piece 2. This design prevents users from seeing the screws from the front of the product, ensuring structural stability. This design effectively improves the product's integrity. The stainless steel decorative strip component design addresses the issue of its long and narrow assembly area with the aluminum frame 1. During installation, the decorative strip tends to slide back and forth along the product's length, making positioning difficult. To address this, notches are designed at both ends of the decorative strip. These notches restrict its sliding within the aluminum frame 1. A groove is provided on the end face of the aluminum frame 1, and 3M adhesive 9 is applied inside the groove. A hidden groove is located on one side of the groove. Stainless steel decorative strips A4, B5, C6, and D7 are sequentially installed into this hidden groove, and are bonded to the aluminum frame 1 and the stainless steel decorative component using 3M adhesive. The hidden groove provides precise positioning for the stainless steel decorative component, effectively preventing deformation and misalignment. This not only improves installation efficiency but also ensures the overall aesthetics and stability of the structure.
[0027] Working principle: In use, firstly, an aluminum frame 1 is made using an aluminum extrusion process, and the two end caps 2 are made using an aluminum die-casting process. During the forming process of the end face of the aluminum frame 1, grooves and hidden slots are formed by self-forming, and 3M adhesive 9 is pasted in the grooves. The aluminum frame 1 is fixed to the two end caps 2 by bolts. The stainless steel decorative component is tilted and placed into the hidden slot of the aluminum frame 1, so that the stainless steel decorative component and the 3M adhesive 9 are fully bonded, completing the connection between the stainless steel decorative component and the aluminum frame 1. Contouring 3M adhesive 8 is pasted on the surface of the end cap 2, and then the stainless steel decorative component is bonded and fixed to the end cap 2 by conforming 3M adhesive 8. The end decorative part 3 is aligned with the slot between the aluminum frame 1 and the end cap 2, tilted and placed in, and installed by aligning the positioning ribs and bolt posts with the corresponding positions of the end cap 2. The end decorative part 3 is fixed to the end cap 2 by driving screws from the bottom of the end cap 2, completing the overall assembly of the door pedal panel.
