Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automotive window lifting equipment, and in particular to an automotive window guide channel. Background Technology

[0002] Glass guide channels play a crucial role in guiding the smooth and stable sliding of the glass within the sheet metal guide rails of car doors. Car door structures are categorized into four types: upper-section doors, composite doors, one-piece doors, and frameless doors. Based on these different door structures, glass guide channels also fall into four categories. Upper-section doors, for example, have relatively small glass guide channel cross-sections, often resulting in abnormal noises during lifting and lowering, and vibrations when opening and closing the door. These issues are typically addressed by increasing the clamping force at the glass guide channel lip; however, increasing the clamping force can lead to side effects such as shaking during lifting, difficulty in lifting, and inability to lift at low temperatures.

[0003] For example, CN205381128U, published on July 13, 2016, discloses an automotive glass guide channel. The guide channel has a U-shaped cross-section, and its outer wall is provided with several elastic support plates for cooperating with sheet metal guide rails. Each of the two lower edges of the guide channel has an outwardly extending outer edge and an inwardly extending inner edge; the two inner edges are respectively a first inner edge and a second inner edge. A buffer lip is provided on the inner sidewall of the guide channel corresponding to the first inner edge. Each elastic support plate, the two outer edges, and the two inner edges all extend along the extension direction of the guide channel. Several staggered protrusions are provided on the surface of the second inner edge that contacts the first inner edge. The aforementioned disclosed glass guide channel lacks a positioning structure, resulting in low assembly precision and potential problems such as uneven gaps between the bright strips of the front and rear door glass guide channels and inconsistent relationships with the side panels, affecting the overall vehicle quality. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automotive glass guide channel with higher assembly precision. This invention improves the accuracy of the relative position between the glass guide channel and the door sheet metal by cooperating with a positioning post on the base and a slot on the door sheet metal. This further enhances the installation reliability between the glass guide channel and the door sheet metal, effectively improving the appearance quality of the door and the assembly efficiency of the glass guide channel.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an automotive glass guide channel, including a base that engages with the car door sheet metal, a positioning post on the base, and a slot on the car door sheet metal that engages with the positioning post.

[0006] The end of the positioning post is provided with a protrusion.

[0007] The slot is an oblong hole.

[0008] The base is provided with a guide block, and the guide block is provided with a guide groove that connects to the sheet metal of the vehicle door.

[0009] The door sheet metal is covered with a rubber coating, and the base is disposed between the rubber coating and the door sheet metal.

[0010] The rubber coating is snapped into the door sheet metal.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] The base is snapped into the door sheet metal. At this time, the positioning post on the base and the slot on the door sheet metal snap into each other, thereby improving the accuracy of the glass guide channel positioning. The gap between the glass guide channel and the door sheet metal is more consistent, ensuring that the end face of the front and rear door guide channels is beautiful. The structure is simple and compact, thereby improving the overall refinement of the vehicle. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0019] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-4As shown, the automotive glass guide channel includes a base 1 that engages with the door sheet metal 5. The base 1 is provided with a positioning post 2, and the door sheet metal 5 is provided with a slot 6 that engages with the positioning post 2. Specifically, the base 1 is an injection molded part, and the connection between the positioning post 2 and the base 1 is provided with rounded corners to prevent stress concentration and make the connection between the positioning post 2 and the base 1 more robust. The cooperation between the positioning post 2 and the slot 6 limits the base 1 in the X direction of the vehicle body.

[0021] When in use, the base 1 engages with the door sheet metal 5. At this time, the positioning post 2 on the base 1 engages with the slot 6 on the door sheet metal 5, thereby improving the accuracy of the glass guide channel positioning, and the gap between the glass guide channel and the door sheet metal is more consistent, ensuring that the end faces of the front and rear door guide channels are beautiful, and the structure is simple and compact, thereby improving the overall refinement of the vehicle.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 The end of the positioning post 2 is provided with a protrusion 201, which prevents the positioning post 201 from separating from the body sheet metal 5. Specifically, the door sheet metal 5 is provided with a side plate, and the slot 6 is provided on the side plate.

[0023] Specifically, the slot 6 is an oblong hole, which facilitates the movement of the positioning post 2 into the slot 6, thereby enabling the quick installation of the positioning post 2.

[0024] The base 1 is provided with a guide block 3, and the guide block 3 is provided with a guide groove 301 that connects to the door sheet metal 5. The connection between the base 1 and the door sheet metal 5 is achieved through the connection between the guide groove 301 on the guide block 3 and the door sheet metal 5. Specifically, the base 1 is limited in the Y direction of the vehicle body by connecting the guide block 3 and the door sheet metal 5.

[0025] The door sheet metal 5 is covered with a rubber coating 4, and the base 1 is located between the rubber coating 4 and the door sheet metal 5. The rubber coating 4 covers the part of the door sheet metal 5 and the base 1, thereby protecting the base 1 and the door sheet metal 5, and making the connection between the door sheet metal 5 and the glass guide channel more aesthetically pleasing.

[0026] Specifically, the rubber coating 4 is snapped into the door sheet metal 5, thereby enabling convenient assembly and disassembly of the rubber coating 4 and the door sheet metal 5.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
