[0041] As consumers' demands for vehicle appearance gradually increase, the exterior design of car bodies is constantly being iterated upon. In some models, decorative covers are installed on the rear of the fenders near the doors to enhance their aesthetics. During body assembly, the fenders are installed first, and the decorative covers are then installed after the fenders are adjusted into place.

[0042] However, according to the applicant's observations and research, in the traditional installation structure of fenders and trim covers, due to welding tolerances, body manufacturing tolerances, and manufacturing tolerances of components such as fenders, a large gap may appear between the edge of the fender and the edge of the trim cover after the trim cover is installed on the body. The appearance of this gap is also directly related to the installation position of the fender. Within the tolerance, it is difficult for workers to grasp the installation position of the fender. Therefore, relying solely on the worker's operation cannot effectively eliminate this gap.

[0043] In view of the above, this utility model proposes a decorative cover assembly structure to solve the above problems.

[0044] Please see Figures 1 to 4In one embodiment of this utility model, the decorative cover assembly structure 1000 includes a side panel 1, a bracket 2, a fender 3, and a decorative cover 4. The side panel 1 includes an outer side 11 and an inner side 12 facing each other. The bracket 2 includes a connected mounting plate 21 and a connecting plate 22. The mounting plate 21 is fitted to the outer side 11, and the connecting plate 22 extends in a direction away from the outer side 11. The connecting plate 22 has at least two spaced-apart locking holes 221. The fender 3 is connected to the connecting plate 22 and includes a plate body 31, which is located on the side of the connecting plate 22 away from the outer side 11. The decorative cover 4 includes a cover body 41, an adhesive block 42, and at least two buckles 43. The cover body 41 faces the connecting plate 22. The buckles 43 are installed on the cover body 41, and each buckle 43 corresponds to a locking hole 221. The buckles 43 can slide in the locking holes 221 in a direction away from the outer side 11. The adhesive block 42 is used to bond the plate body 31 to the connecting plate 22.

[0045] Specifically, the side panel 1 is the vehicle body side panel. The mounting plate 21 is welded to the side panel 1. The welding points are adjusted according to the needs of those skilled in the art to ensure the connection strength between the bracket 2 and the side panel 1 and to prevent the bracket 2 from shifting. Using the bracket 2 as a reference, the fender 3 and the decorative cover 4 are installed. The fender 3 is first connected to the connecting plate 22 by a worker to prevent relative displacement between the fender 3 and the connecting plate 22. Then, the buckle 43 in the decorative cover 4 is fastened to the locking hole 221 of the connecting plate 22. In this embodiment, there are two locking holes 221, and the two locking holes 221 are along the height direction Y (…). Figure 3 The spacing is set in the direction indicated by the middle arrow Y. The dimension of the card hole 221 along the height direction Y is larger than that along the width direction X. Figure 3 The dimensions (in the direction indicated by the middle arrow X) allow the buckle 43 to move in the width direction X, thereby moving the decorative cover 4 as a whole to adjust the relative position between the decorative cover 4 and the fender 3. The buckle 43 is fitted against the inner wall of the locking hole 221 in the height direction Y, meaning that the buckle 43 cannot move relative to the locking hole 221 in the height direction Y, to avoid the decorative cover 4 having multiple degrees of freedom that would make it difficult to position. It should be noted that the adhesive block 42 includes one of double-sided adhesive and hot melt adhesive. In this embodiment, to reduce assembly time, the adhesive block 42 uses double-sided adhesive. When the position of the decorative cover 4 is adjusted to the point where there is no gap between it and the fender 3, the worker peels off the protective film of the double-sided adhesive near the connecting plate 22 and presses the decorative cover 4 to prevent relative movement between the decorative cover 4 and the connecting plate 22.

[0046] In this embodiment, when the worker installs the fender 3 and the decorative cover 4 onto the side panel 1, the fender 3 is first connected to the connecting plate 22, and then the decorative cover 4 is installed between the fender 3 and the side panel 1. Since the clip 43 can slide in the clip hole 221, the worker can flexibly adjust the relative position between the cover 41 and the fender 3, thereby eliminating the gap between them. Then, the adhesive block 42 is used to bond the connecting plate 22 and the cover 41, preventing the cover 41 from moving relative to the connecting plate 22. Thus, during the vehicle assembly process, the worker can precisely eliminate the gaps between the fender 3 and the decorative cover 4 caused by accumulated tolerances.

[0047] Further, please refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the fender 3 further includes an overlapping rolled edge 32 connected to the panel 31, the overlapping rolled edge 32 extending towards the outer side 11; the decorative cover 4 further includes an overlapping lip 44 connected to the cover body 41, the overlapping lip 44 being disposed on the side of the cover body 41 away from the outer side 11, and the overlapping lip 44 overlapping with at least a portion of the overlapping rolled edge 32. After the decorative cover 4 is installed, at least a portion of the overlapping lip 44 overlaps with the overlapping rolled edge 32, thereby eliminating the gap between the two. Thus, even if the side panel 1 or the bracket 2 undergoes certain deformation, no gap will appear between the decorative panel 411 and the fender 3, thereby providing a certain design margin for their fit. The overlapping rolled edge 32 is integrally formed with the panel 31 and installed simultaneously to reduce assembly steps.

[0048] Furthermore, in one embodiment of this utility model, the cover 41 includes a decorative panel 411 and a base plate 412. The buckle 43 and adhesive block 42 are both installed on the side of the base plate 412 facing the connecting plate 22, while the decorative panel 411 is installed on the side of the base plate 412 away from the connecting plate 22. An overlapping lip 44 connects to the decorative panel 411. The decorative panel 411 is located on the outer side of the base plate 412, allowing for independent design of its decorative surface without the interference of the buckle 43 and adhesive block 42, thus ensuring the aesthetic appeal of the vehicle body. This arrangement facilitates customizing the decorative panel 411 according to customer requirements, meeting their customization needs. Moreover, when maintenance is required, only the base plate 412 and the connecting plate 22 need to be separated, without affecting the structure of the decorative panel 411, thereby avoiding problems such as deformation of the decorative panel 411. In order to meet the overlap of the overlapping lip 44 and the overlapping rolled edge 32, the overlapping lip 44 is integrally formed with the decorative panel 411, thereby avoiding mutual interference between the overlapping lip 44 and the overlapping rolled edge 32, so as to facilitate the overall installation of the decorative panel 411.

[0049] Specifically, in one embodiment of this utility model, please refer to Figure 6A positioning groove 4121 is provided on the side of the substrate 412 away from the connecting plate 22, and a positioning protrusion 4111 is provided on the side of the decorative plate 411 facing the substrate 412. The positioning groove 4121 and the positioning protrusion 4111 are fitted together. The geometric matching of the positioning protrusion 4111 and the positioning groove 4121 (such as a quadrangular prism or a four-winged pyramid) enables quick assembly. During operation, simply inserting the positioning protrusion 4111 into the positioning groove 4121 will automatically correct the position without the need for additional auxiliary tools. After positioning, the substrate 412 and the decorative plate 411 can be connected by adhesive or screws to prevent them from separating.

[0050] In one embodiment of this utility model, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The cover 41 also includes an overlapping claw 413, and the fender 3 includes an overlapping plate 33. The overlapping plate 33 is mounted on the top of the plate 31. The overlapping claw 413 is mounted on the side of the base plate 412 facing the connecting plate 22, and overlaps the top surface of the overlapping plate 33. The overlapping claw 413 contacts the top surface of the overlapping plate 33 to form a vertical limiting, effectively suppressing the downward displacement of the cover 41 along the height direction Y under vibration or impact. In addition, this arrangement can also disperse the force along the height direction Y between the buckle 43 and the buckle hole 221, thereby preventing the buckle 43 from breaking.

[0051] In one embodiment of this utility model, the base plate 412, the buckle 43, and the overlapping claw 413 are integrally molded parts. The clamping plate, the buckle 43, and the overlapping claw 413 are integrally molded using injection molding technology, eliminating the step of assembling the buckle 43 and the overlapping claw 413 with the base plate 412, thus improving assembly efficiency. At the same time, it reduces the types of parts, thereby saving warehouse management costs.

[0052] In one embodiment of this utility model, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The connecting plate 22 also has a first through hole 222. The fender 3 also includes bolts 34 and an assembly plate 35 connected to the plate body 31. The assembly plate 35 has a second through hole 351. At least part of the assembly plate 35 is in contact with the connecting plate 22. The bolts 34 pass through the first through hole 222 and the second through hole 351. In this way, the connecting plate 22 and the assembly plate 35 can be locked together by the bolts 34, so that there will be no relative displacement between the fender 3 and the bracket 2. At the same time, when the fender 3 needs to be maintained, the bolts 34 can be removed to separate the fender 3 from the bracket 2, thus facilitating disassembly.

[0053] Furthermore, in one embodiment of this utility model, the first through hole 222 is a circular hole, and the bolt 34 includes a threaded rod, which is clearance-fitted with the first through hole 222. This arrangement allows the threaded rod to move the assembly plate 35 relative to the connecting plate 22, thereby facilitating workers to flexibly adjust the position of the fender 3 as needed. Once the position of the fender 3 is adjusted, tightening the threaded rod will lock the connecting plate 22 and the assembly plate 35. This arrangement facilitates installation by workers and allows the fender 3 to be adjusted in the height direction Y and width direction X during assembly, automatically absorbing accumulated errors such as welding tolerances of the bracket 2 and injection shrinkage deformation of the fender 3.

[0054] In one embodiment of this utility model, the locking hole 221 is an oblong hole. The oblong hole allows the buckle 43 to move in the hole along the width direction X. It has the advantages of being easy to process and having stable forming. Moreover, the oblong hole can be processed by various processing tables, which helps to reduce the production cost of the bracket 2.

[0055] This utility model also proposes a vehicle, which includes a decorative cover assembly structure 1000. The specific structure of the decorative cover assembly structure 1000 is as described in the above embodiments. Since this vehicle adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
