Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive sunroof technology, and in particular to a guide rail device for an automotive sunroof. Background Technology
[0002] A car sunroof is installed on the roof of the vehicle, which can effectively circulate air inside the car and increase the intake of fresh air. At the same time, the car sunroof can also expand the field of vision and meet the needs of mobile photography and videography. The sunroof opens or closes by sliding on the sunroof rails.
[0003] A patent entitled "A Guide Rail Device for an Automobile Sunroof" (patent application number: 202320217030.2) discloses a guide rail device for an automobile sunroof, including a guide rail body. A sliding groove is provided within the guide rail body, and a fixing groove is provided on the side wall of the sliding groove. A rubber strip is provided within the fixing groove, and an installation groove is provided along the length of the rubber strip. The opening of the installation groove is located at the top of the rubber strip, and the installation groove penetrates the rubber strip. The through-groove on the rubber strip of the guide rail allows for easy compression of the rubber strip's width, thus facilitating assembly and disassembly.
[0004] In the above case, although the rubber strip of the guide rail has a through mounting groove, the width of the rubber strip can be easily compressed, which facilitates disassembly and assembly. However, due to the limited elasticity of the rubber strip itself, it is easy to loosen. In particular, after the rubber strip comes into contact with the car sunroof component, when the car sunroof component slides, the second flange of the rubber strip is easy to move to one side of the mounting groove. This not only makes it easy to loosen, but also results in poor contact with the car sunroof component, causing poor sealing.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a guide rail device for automobile sunroofs to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a guide rail device for a car sunroof, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the rubber strip is prone to loosening due to its limited elasticity. In particular, after the rubber strip comes into contact with the car sunroof component, when the car sunroof component slides, the second flange of the rubber strip is prone to move to one side of the mounting groove, which not only makes it easy to loosen, but also results in poor contact with the car sunroof component and poor sealing effect.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a guide rail device for an automobile sunroof, comprising a guide rail body, wherein a sliding groove is provided inside the guide rail body, and a placement groove is provided inside the guide rail body.
[0008] The placement groove is equipped with a sealing assembly, which includes a rubber strip, a spring, and a positioning post.
[0009] The rubber strip has an internal mounting groove, the inner wall of which is fixedly connected to both ends of the spring, and the outer side of the rubber strip is fixedly connected to the outer side of the positioning post.
[0010] Preferably, the inside of the placement groove is inserted into the outside of the rubber strip.
[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the placement groove is provided with a positioning groove, and the inside of the positioning groove is inserted into the outside of the positioning post.
[0012] Preferably, the positioning post is located on the side of the end of the spring.
[0013] Preferably, there are two placement slots, and the two placement slots are located on one side and the other side of the slide, respectively.
[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the chute is provided with a drainage hole.
[0015] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. By setting up a sealing component, when the rubber strip needs to be disassembled and replaced, the edge of the rubber strip can be pinched into the mounting groove, causing the spring to deform under force. At the same time, the positioning post separates from the positioning groove opened in the inner wall of the mounting groove, and the rubber strip can be quickly pulled upward to separate from the mounting groove of the guide rail body, making it easy to disassemble the rubber strip. Furthermore, the elasticity of the rubber strip itself and the elasticity of the spring can be used to fix the rubber strip, and the insertion of the positioning post and the positioning groove provides lateral support for the rubber strip, avoiding the problem of the sliding of the car sunroof components affecting the rubber strip, thereby further improving the stability of the rubber strip installation.
[0017] 2. By incorporating springs, the spring force provides auxiliary support to the two edges of the rubber strip, preventing the two edges of the rubber strip from extending and retracting into the mounting groove when the sunroof components slide, thus avoiding poor sealing due to loose contact with the sunroof components. This improves the sealing effect of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-5 The illustrated guide rail device for a car sunroof includes a guide rail body 1. The guide rail body 1 has an internal groove 3 and an internal placement groove 2. The placement groove 2 contains a sealing assembly, which includes a rubber strip 4, a spring 6, and a positioning post 7. The rubber strip 4 has an internal mounting groove 5, the inner wall of which is fixedly connected to both ends of the spring 6. The outer side of the rubber strip 4 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the positioning post 7. The placement groove 2 is inserted into the outer side of the rubber strip 4. The inner wall of the placement groove 2 has a positioning groove 8, the inner side of which is inserted into the outer side of the positioning post 7. The positioning post 7 is located on the side of the end of the spring 6. When the rubber strip 4 needs to be disassembled and replaced, the edge of the rubber strip 4 can be pinched into the mounting groove 5, causing the spring 6 to deform under force. At the same time, the positioning post 7 separates from the positioning groove 8 opened in the inner wall of the placement groove 2, and the rubber strip 4 can be quickly pulled upward to separate from the placement groove 2 of the guide rail body 1, making it easy to disassemble the rubber strip 4. The elasticity of the rubber strip 4 itself and the elasticity of the spring 6 can be used to fix the rubber strip 4. The insertion of the positioning post 7 and the positioning groove 8 provides lateral support for the rubber strip 4, avoiding the problem of the sliding of the car sunroof components affecting the rubber strip 4, thereby further improving the installation stability of the rubber strip 4.
[0026] In addition, there are two placement slots 2, located on one side and the other side of the slide 3 respectively. A drainage hole 9 is provided at the bottom of the slide 3. The elastic force of the spring 6 provides auxiliary support to the two edges of the rubber strip 4, preventing the two edges of the rubber strip 4 from extending and retracting into the mounting groove 5 when the sunroof component slides, thus avoiding poor sealing due to insufficient contact with the sunroof component. This improves the sealing effect of the device.
[0027] Working principle: When the rubber strip 4 needs to be disassembled and replaced, the edge of the rubber strip 4 can be pinched into the mounting groove 5, causing the spring 6 to deform under force. At the same time, the positioning post 7 separates from the positioning groove 8 opened in the inner wall of the placement groove 2, allowing the rubber strip 4 to be quickly pulled upwards to separate from the placement groove 2 of the guide rail body 1, facilitating the disassembly of the rubber strip 4. Furthermore, the elasticity of the rubber strip 4 itself and the elasticity of the spring 6 can be used to fix the rubber strip 4. The insertion of the positioning post 7 and the positioning groove 8 provides lateral support for the rubber strip 4, preventing the sliding of the car sunroof component from affecting the rubber strip 4, thereby further improving the installation stability of the rubber strip 4. Finally, the elasticity of the spring 6 will provide auxiliary support for the two edges of the rubber strip 4, preventing the two edges of the rubber strip 4 from moving into the mounting groove 5 when the car sunroof component slides, resulting in poor contact with the car sunroof component and causing poor sealing effect, thus improving the sealing effect of the device.
