Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive sunroof technology, and in particular to an integrated flow guiding structure for automotive sunroof trim strips and drainage channels. Background Technology
[0002] The concept of an integrated sunroof trim and drainage channel structure likely refers to a design that combines the functions of sunroof trim and drainage channels. This aims to improve drainage and airflow by optimizing the sunroof and roof structure. Sunroof trim typically decorates and protects the edges around the sunroof, while drainage channels guide water from the roof or rainwater outwards, preventing water from seeping into the vehicle. The integrated drainage structure combines these two elements, potentially achieving more efficient water flow guidance through a unified design, while also improving the cleanliness of the appearance and the overall structural stability.
[0003] In the existing technology, sunroof drainage channels often become clogged due to the accumulation of dust, foreign objects, and liquids inside the channels after prolonged use. This causes water inside the channels to overflow from the roof into the car, resulting in unnecessary losses for the user. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an integrated flow guiding structure for automotive sunroof trim strips and drainage channels.
[0005] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution: an integrated airflow guiding structure for automotive sunroof trim and drainage channel, including a sunroof airflow guide frame, an avoidance groove at the top of the sunroof airflow guide frame, a limiting screw fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sunroof airflow guide frame, a sunroof moving slider slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting screw, a U-shaped airflow guiding channel at the bottom of the avoidance groove, a connecting block fixedly connected to the bottom of the sunroof moving slider, an anti-blocking push rod fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting block, an airflow guiding channel on the left side of the U-shaped airflow guiding channel, and a drainage hole on the right side of the airflow guiding channel.
[0006] As a further improvement to the above solution, two clearance slots are provided, and the two clearance slots are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame. Two sunroof moving sliders are provided, and the two sunroof moving sliders are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above solution, two U-shaped guide channels are provided, and the two U-shaped guide channels are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame. Two connecting blocks are provided, and the two connecting blocks are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame. The drainage hole penetrates the inner wall of the sunroof guide frame and is opened on the surface of the sunroof guide frame.
[0008] Through the above technical solution, the sunroof will drive the sunroof sliding slider, which will slide along the sunroof sliding slider opened on the sunroof guide frame. At the same time, the sunroof sliding slider will drive the connecting block and the anti-blocking push rod to slide, thereby clearing the liquid and foreign objects accumulated inside the U-shaped guide channel through the anti-blocking push rod.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above solution, a limiting groove is provided on the left side of the sunroof moving slider, and a connecting shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove. A driven gear is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting shaft away from the sunroof moving slider.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above solution, the inner wall of the driven gear is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the limiting screw, the outer wall of the driven gear is meshed with a drive rack, and the bottom of the sunroof moving slider is fixedly connected to a connecting block two.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, a waterproof bidirectional motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding block away from the skylight of the second connecting block, and an anti-clogging stirring push rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the waterproof bidirectional motor.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, a drive gear is fixedly connected to the end of the anti-clogging stirring push rod away from the drain hole, and the outer wall of the drive gear is meshed with the surface of the drive rack.
[0013] Through the above technical solution, by operating a waterproof bidirectional motor, the waterproof bidirectional motor rotates the anti-clogging stirring push rod, which cleans the foreign objects blocking the guide channel and drainage hole. At the same time, the anti-clogging stirring push rod rotates the drive gear, which meshes with the drive rack to rotate. The drive rack meshes with the driven gear, which drives the connecting shaft to rotate inside the limiting groove opened by the sunroof moving slider.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] This invention utilizes a sunroof mechanism. When the sunroof is opened and closed, it moves a sliding block along the sunroof guide rail. Simultaneously, the sliding block moves a connecting block and an anti-blocking push rod, thereby clearing any liquid or foreign matter accumulated inside the U-shaped guide channel. To prevent excessive liquid accumulation in the U-shaped guide channel from affecting the lifespan of the sunroof sliding block and the limiting screw, the liquid flows towards the drain hole through the guide channel. This prevents liquid from accumulating inside the U-shaped guide channel and affecting the lifespan of the limiting screw due to excessive water level. Furthermore, the anti-blocking push rod clears any liquid or foreign matter blocking the U-shaped guide channel during each opening and closing of the sunroof, preventing liquid from entering the vehicle through the roof and causing unnecessary damage.
[0016] This invention utilizes a waterproof bidirectional motor to activate the sunroof. When the sunroof needs to be moved by the sliding block, the anti-clogging stirring push rod clears blockages in the drainage channel and drain hole. Simultaneously, the anti-clogging stirring push rod rotates the drive gear, which meshes with the drive rack to rotate. The drive rack meshes with the driven gear, which in turn drives the connecting shaft to rotate within the limiting groove of the sunroof sliding block. The driven gear also moves left and right along the surface of the limiting screw, thus moving the sunroof sliding block. The sunroof sliding block then drives the connecting block, which in turn drives the waterproof bidirectional motor to move left and right. This ensures that each time the sunroof is opened and closed, the anti-clogging stirring push rod and the anti-clogging push rod effectively clear blockages of liquid and foreign matter in the U-shaped drainage channel and its interior, preventing leaks caused by prolonged lack of cleaning.

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0026] Example:
[0027] Please combine Figure 1-6 This embodiment of an integrated airflow guiding structure for a car sunroof trim strip and drainage channel includes a sunroof guide frame 1, an avoidance groove 2 at the top of the sunroof guide frame 1, a limiting screw 3 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sunroof guide frame 1, a sunroof moving slider 4 slidably connected to the outer wall of the limiting screw 3, a U-shaped airflow channel 5 at the bottom of the avoidance groove 2, a connecting block 6 fixedly connected to the bottom of the sunroof moving slider 4, an anti-blocking push rod 7 fixedly connected to the right side of the connecting block 6, an airflow channel 8 on the left side of the U-shaped airflow channel 5, and a drainage hole 9 on the right side of the airflow channel 8.
[0028] There are two clearance slots 2, which are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame 1. There are two sunroof moving sliders 4, which are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame 1.
[0029] Two U-shaped guide channels 5 are provided, and the two U-shaped guide channels 5 are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame 1. Two connecting blocks 6 are provided, and the two connecting blocks 6 are symmetrically arranged around the center of the sunroof guide frame 1. Drainage holes 9 penetrate the inner wall of the sunroof guide frame 1 and are opened on the surface of the sunroof guide frame 1.
[0030] A limiting groove 10 is provided on the left side of the sunroof moving slider 4. A connecting shaft 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 10. A driven gear 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting shaft 11 away from the sunroof moving slider 4.
[0031] The driven gear 12 is threaded to the inner wall of the limiting screw 3. The driven gear 12 is meshed with the drive rack 13. The bottom of the sunroof moving slider 4 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 2 14.
[0032] A waterproof bidirectional motor 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding block 4 away from the skylight in connecting block 2 14, and an anti-clogging stirring push rod 17 is fixedly connected to the output end of the waterproof bidirectional motor 15.
[0033] The end of the anti-clogging stirring push rod 17 away from the drain hole 9 is fixedly connected to a drive gear 16, and the outer wall of the drive gear 16 is meshed with the surface of the drive rack 13.
[0034] The implementation principle of the integrated flow guiding structure of the sunroof trim and drainage channel in this embodiment is as follows: To prevent excessive liquid accumulation inside the U-shaped flow guiding channel 5 from affecting the service life of the sunroof moving slider 4 and the limiting screw 3, the liquid inside the U-shaped flow guiding channel 5 will flow towards the drainage hole 9 through the flow guiding channel 8, thereby preventing liquid accumulation inside the U-shaped flow guiding channel 5 and affecting the service life of the limiting screw 3 due to excessive water level. Furthermore, during each opening and closing of the sunroof, the anti-blocking push rod 7 can clear the liquid and foreign objects blocking the U-shaped flow guiding channel 5, preventing liquid from entering the vehicle through the roof and causing unnecessary damage. When the sunroof moving slider 4 needs to move the sunroof, the waterproof bidirectional motor 15 is operated, which rotates the anti-blocking stirring push rod 17 to agitate the anti-blocking stirring mechanism. Push rod 17 clears foreign objects blocking the inside of the guide channel 8 and drain hole 9. At the same time, the anti-blocking stirring push rod 17 rotates the drive gear 16, which meshes with the drive rack 13 to rotate. The drive rack 13 meshes with the driven gear 12, which drives the connecting shaft 11 to rotate inside the limiting groove 10 opened in the sunroof moving slider 4. At the same time, the driven gear 12 moves left and right along the surface of the limiting screw 3, thereby driving the sunroof moving slider 4. The sunroof moving slider 4 drives the connecting block 14, which drives the waterproof bidirectional motor 15 to move left and right. Thus, every time the sunroof is opened and closed, the anti-blocking stirring push rod 17 and the anti-blocking push rod 7 clear the liquid and foreign objects inside the U-shaped guide channel 5 and guide channel 8, preventing the sunroof from leaking due to long-term lack of cleaning.
[0035] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
