Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive seat technology, and in particular to a thermoformed panel for a new energy vehicle seat. Background Technology

[0002] Vacuum-formed panels for new energy vehicle seats typically include a back panel, a bottom panel, and side panels. During manufacturing, the side panels are primarily connected to surrounding components using a one-piece snap-fit ​​structure. This structure is usually formed by simultaneously molding the snap-fit ​​and the main body of the side panel into a single unit during injection molding or vacuum forming. This one-piece structure is characterized by its simplicity and ease of assembly, and has been widely used in the automotive seat manufacturing industry.

[0003] In practical use, when it is necessary to remove the side panel, it is usually forcibly pulled open. This can easily damage the clips. When the clips are damaged, since the clips and the side panel are integrally molded, the entire side panel component must be replaced, resulting in high maintenance costs and serious waste of resources. Especially during long-term use, the clips are prone to breakage or deformation due to frequent stress, making partial replacement impossible.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a thermoformed enclosure for new energy vehicle seats to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above situation and to overcome the defects of the existing technology, this utility model provides a new energy vehicle seat thermoformed panel with low maintenance cost and high resource utilization.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A vacuum-formed panel for a new energy vehicle seat includes: a side panel, on which multiple detachable buckle structures are installed for fixing the side panel, and multiple mounting holes are provided on the side panel, with the buckle structures partially penetrating the mounting holes.

[0008] Preferably, the buckle structure includes a retaining ring, and at least one bendable fold plate is provided on one side of the retaining ring. A buckle cap is provided at the end of the fold plate away from the retaining ring. When the buckle cap is fastened to the fixing component on the base plate, the buckle structure exerts a pulling force on the side plate.

[0009] Preferably, the retaining ring, the folding plate, and the buckle are integrally formed and made of plastic. Using plastic material makes the folding plate easy to bend elastically.

[0010] Preferably, the retaining ring and the folding plate have the same through hole, and the folding plate has an inclined groove and an arc groove. The through hole, the inclined groove and the arc groove are continuous. The buckle structure also includes a support ball. The support ball can pass through the through hole and match the arc groove. A connecting rod is fixed to one side of the support ball, and a plug matching the through hole is fixed to the end of the connecting rod away from the support ball.

[0011] Preferably, an annular groove is formed inside the through hole, and a retaining ring is integrally formed on the outer wall of the plug. When the plug is completely inside the through hole, the retaining ring is locked in the annular groove.

[0012] Preferably, a groove is provided on one side of the plug, and a hook ring is fixed inside the groove.

[0013] Preferably, a limiting groove is formed on one side of the mounting hole, and the retaining ring matches the limiting groove.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] (1) Compared with the traditional one-piece molded side panel, the maintenance cost of this utility model is low, and there will be no situation where the entire side panel needs to be replaced if one buckle is damaged, thus improving the utilization rate of resources;

[0016] (2) In this utility model, the cooperation between the support ball and the arc groove can achieve quick locking and unlocking, and the hook and ring design makes the disassembly of the buckle structure simple and convenient;

[0017] (3) In this utility model, the retaining ring is stuck in the annular groove, which plays a certain role in fixing the plug, thereby increasing the stability of the support ball inside the arc groove. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention include, but are not limited to, the following embodiments.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the new energy vehicle seat vacuum forming panel provided by this utility model includes: a side panel 1, on which multiple detachable buckle structures 2 are installed. The detachable buckle structures 2 are easier to replace and have lower maintenance costs compared to traditional one-piece molded side panels. They also prevent the need to replace the entire side panel if one buckle is damaged, thus improving resource utilization. The multiple buckle structures 2 are used to fix the side panel 1. The side panel 1 has multiple mounting holes 3. The buckle structures 2 partially penetrate the mounting holes 3 and are installed on the buckle structures 2 through the mounting holes 3 and fixed to the fixing components (fixing components are, but are not limited to, fixing holes) on the base plate.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the buckle structure 2 includes a retaining ring 5. At least two flexible folding plates 6 are provided on one side of the retaining ring 5. A buckle cap 7 is provided at the end of the folding plate 6 away from the retaining ring 5. When the buckle cap 7 is fastened to the fixing component on the base plate, the buckle structure 2 exerts a pulling force on the side plate 1, thereby fixing the side plate 1.

[0031] Furthermore, the retaining ring 5, the folding plate 6, and the buckle 7 are integrally formed and made of plastic. The use of plastic material makes the buckle cheaper, and the folding plate 6 is easier to bend flexibly.

[0032] Furthermore, the retaining ring 5 and the folding plate 6 are provided with the same through hole 8. The folding plate 6 is provided with an inclined groove 9 and an arc-shaped groove 10. The through hole 8, the inclined groove 9, and the arc-shaped groove 10 are continuous. The snap-fit ​​structure 2 also includes a support ball 11. The support ball 11 can pass through the through hole 8 and matches the arc-shaped groove 10. A connecting rod 12 is fixed to one side of the support ball 11. A plug 13 matching the through hole 8 is fixed to the end of the connecting rod 12 away from the support ball 11. In use, the support ball 1 is inserted into the through hole 8 and moves through the inclined groove 9 to the arc-shaped groove 10. The two arc-shaped grooves 10 are snapped with the support ball 11. The two folding plates 6 are bent away from each other under the support of the support ball 11 (e.g., Figure 6 As shown), at this time, the two buckles 7 are far apart from each other and can be locked onto the fixing parts on the base plate.

[0033] Furthermore, an annular groove 15 is provided inside the through hole 8, and a retaining ring 14 is integrally formed on the outer wall of the plug 13. When the plug 13 is completely inside the through hole 8, the retaining ring 14 is locked in the annular groove 15, which plays a certain role in fixing the plug 13, thereby increasing the stability of the support ball 11 inside the arc groove 10.

[0034] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, a groove 16 is provided on one side of the plug 13, and a hook 17 is fixed inside the groove 16. When the side plate needs to be removed, the buckle structure 2 must be removed first. To remove the buckle structure 2, the support ball 11 must be removed first. During removal, use a hook to hook the hook 17 first, and then pull the hook forcefully to pull the support ball 11 out of the arc groove 10, thereby resetting the folding plate 6. After the folding plate 6 is reset, the buckle structure 2 can be easily removed, thus enabling the replacement of the side plate 1. The groove 16 is designed to increase the aesthetics of the side plate 1 and prevent the hook 17 from protruding from the surface of the side plate 1, which would affect the aesthetics.

[0035] Example 3

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, a limiting groove 4 is provided on one side of the mounting hole 3. The retaining ring 5 matches the limiting groove 4. When the buckle structure 2 passes through the mounting hole 3 and is fastened to the fixing component on the base plate, the retaining ring 5 is completely located inside the limiting groove 4. This prevents the retaining ring 5 from protruding, thereby avoiding affecting the aesthetics of the side plate 1.
