AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In rear-end collisions, door controllers are easily damaged or malfunction due to impact and compression, causing the doors to fail to unlock automatically, affecting rescue efficiency and personal safety.

Method used

A guide mechanism is installed on the vehicle floor between the rear storage box and the controller mounting position, forming a sloping guide surface. The guide mechanism includes guide ribs and reinforcing ribs to guide the movement path of the vehicle's electrical components, causing them to tilt upwards during a collision to avoid direct impact on the controller.

Benefits of technology

It effectively protects the door controller from direct impacts from electrical components, ensuring that the door can unlock normally in an accident, thus improving the reliability of rescue access and personnel safety.

Abstract

This application relates to a protective structure and a vehicle. The vehicle includes a floor and a rear storage compartment. The floor has a controller mounting position for installing a door controller. The protective structure includes at least one guide mechanism fixedly disposed on the upper side of the floor and located between the rear storage compartment and the controller mounting position. The upper side of the guide mechanism forms a slope with increasing height from one end near the rear storage compartment to the end away from the rear storage compartment. In the event of a rear-end collision, when vehicle electrical components such as the power management module in the rear storage compartment move towards the controller mounting position, the guide mechanism can utilize its upper slope to guide the power management module and other vehicle electrical components in the rear storage compartment to tilt upwards. This prevents the power management module and other vehicle electrical components from pressing against the door controller, thus protecting the door controller and ensuring its effectiveness, thereby improving the safety of the occupants.
