Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle body technology, and more particularly to a vehicle body and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle body impact strength is a core indicator of vehicle safety design. In related technologies, the vehicle body includes shock absorber tower components, support components, front panel assemblies, and drainage structures. Due to the assembly process requirements of the support components, the drainage structure can create an obstruction between the front panel assembly and the support components. This structure results in insufficient vehicle body impact strength. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a vehicle body and a vehicle that can improve the impact strength of the vehicle body.

[0004] In a first aspect, this application provides a vehicle body, the vehicle body including a shock absorber tower assembly, a support member, a front wall panel assembly and a drainage assembly, the two ends of the support member being connected to the shock absorber tower assembly respectively along a first direction; the front wall panel assembly and the support member are spaced apart along a second direction, the second direction having an angle with the first direction; the drainage assembly includes a drainage structure and a reinforcing structure, the drainage structure being disposed between the support member and the front wall panel assembly and being connected to the support member and the front wall panel assembly respectively, the drainage structure having a drainage groove extending along the first direction, the reinforcing structure being disposed in the drainage groove to form a first force transmission cavity with the drainage groove.

[0005] In the technical solution provided in this application, the vehicle body includes a shock absorber tower assembly, a support member, a front panel assembly, and a drainage assembly. The drainage assembly includes a drainage structure and a reinforcing structure. During vehicle assembly, the support member is connected to the shock absorber tower assembly at both ends along a first direction. The shock absorber tower assembly is used to fix the shock absorbers or struts of the suspension system to transmit the suspension force to the support member. The front panel assembly and the support member are spaced apart along a second direction. The drainage structure is disposed between the support member and the front panel assembly and is connected to both, allowing the force on the support member to be transmitted to the front panel assembly via the drainage structure. The reinforcing structure is disposed in the drainage channel of the drainage structure, forming a first force transmission cavity with the drainage channel. Thus, the drainage structure can transmit and disperse dynamic loads through the first force transmission cavity, improving the structural strength of the drainage structure and reducing the probability of deformation due to excessive force. Compared to technical solutions where the support member and the front panel assembly are separately disposed, in this embodiment, the support member and the front panel assembly are connected through a drainage structure. In this way, when the vehicle body is impacted, the impact force is transmitted from the shock absorber tower assembly to the support member, and then further transmitted to the front panel assembly through the drainage structure. This multi-stage transmission and dispersion of the impact force avoids localized stress concentration and improves the vehicle body's impact performance. Furthermore, since the support member and the front panel assembly are connected via the drainage structure, there is no need for the drainage structure to create a clearance space between the front panel assembly and the support member. This allows the drainage structure to be made using lower-cost sheet metal parts, thereby reducing the vehicle body's manufacturing cost.

[0006] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the reinforcing structure includes a reinforcing member, and the drainage channel has a first sidewall and a second sidewall disposed opposite to each other along a second direction. The first end of the reinforcing member is connected to the first sidewall, and the second end of the reinforcing member is connected to the second sidewall, so as to form a first force transmission cavity together with the drainage channel.

[0007] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the reinforcing member has a support portion, and the reinforcing member is connected to the bottom of the drainage channel through the support portion.

[0008] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the dimension of the support portion gradually decreases along the second direction along the depth direction of the drainage channel, and the depth direction of the drainage channel has an angle with the first direction and the second direction respectively.

[0009] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the drainage structure is connected to the front wall panel assembly via the second sidewall, and the reinforcing structure further includes a fastener, the second end of which is connected to the second sidewall via the fastener.

[0010] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the front wall panel assembly includes a front wall panel and a reinforcing beam. The front wall panel assembly is connected to the drainage structure through the front wall panel, and the reinforcing beam is disposed on the side of the front wall panel facing away from the drainage structure.

[0011] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the vehicle body also includes a connector, the drainage structure has a flange, the flange is disposed at the opening of the drainage channel, and the support is connected to the flange through the connector.

[0012] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the connector has a first flange and a second flange spaced apart along a third direction. The first flange is connected to the support member, and the second flange is connected to the flange edge. The third direction has an angle with the first direction and the second direction, respectively.

[0013] In one possible implementation provided in this application, the connector has a third flange and a fourth flange spaced apart along a first direction, and at least one of the first flange and the second flange together with the third flange and the fourth flange to form a second force transmission cavity.

[0014] Secondly, this application provides a vehicle body including wheels and the body body provided in any of the first aspects, wherein the wheels are mounted on the vehicle body.

[0015] Since the vehicle incorporates the body provided by any of the first aspects, it has the same technical effect: that is, it can improve the impact strength of the body. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the specific technical solutions of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this application. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this application, but are not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0027] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "first," "second," "third," and "fourth" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more.

[0028] Furthermore, in the embodiments of this application, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are defined relative to the positions in which the components are schematically placed in the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these directional terms are relative concepts, used for relative description and clarification, and can change accordingly depending on the position of the components in the accompanying drawings.

[0029] In the embodiments of this application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the term "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium.

[0030] In embodiments of this application, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element.

[0031] In the embodiments of this application, the terms "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate that something is an example, illustration, or description. Any embodiment or design that is described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of this application should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or design. Specifically, the use of the terms "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a specific manner.

[0032] In this embodiment of the application, for the sake of convenience in describing direction, Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 The vehicle body is marked with directions, where the first direction is the width direction, the second direction is the length direction, and the third direction is the height direction. It should be noted that these direction markings are used only to describe this application and are not intended to limit its scope.

[0033] This application provides a vehicle. It should be noted that the vehicle mentioned in this application can refer to large cars, small cars, special vehicles, etc. For example, according to the vehicle type, the vehicle in this application can refer to a sedan, an off-road vehicle, a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), or other types of vehicles.

[0034] In this embodiment, the vehicle includes a body and wheels, with the wheels mounted on the body. The body includes a shock absorber tower assembly, a support member, a front panel assembly, and a drainage structure. The support member is connected to the shock absorber tower assembly at both ends along a first direction, the front panel assembly and the support member are spaced apart along a second direction, and the drainage structure is disposed between the support member and the front panel assembly along the second direction. However, after conducting impact tests on the vehicle body, it was found that the body body has insufficient impact strength.

[0035] Analysis of the above problems revealed that the drainage structure, made of sheet metal, is subject to assembly process requirements of the support components. This drainage structure obstructs the connection between the front panel assembly and the support components, disrupting the connection between them. Consequently, when the vehicle is impacted, the impact force, transmitted from the shock absorber tower assembly to the support components, cannot diffuse further, failing to effectively buffer the impact and making the support components prone to damage due to localized stress concentration. To connect the support components to the front panel assembly, the drainage structure needs to create clearance between them. However, this necessitates the use of more expensive plastics, inevitably increasing the vehicle's manufacturing cost.

[0036] To solve the above problems, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 This application provides a vehicle body, which includes a shock absorber tower assembly 1, a support member 2, a front wall panel assembly 3, and a drainage assembly 4. The support member 2 is connected to the shock absorber tower assembly 1 at both ends along a first direction. The front wall panel assembly 3 and the support member 2 are spaced apart along a second direction, and the second direction has an angle with the first direction. The drainage assembly 4 includes a drainage structure 41 and a reinforcing structure 42. The drainage structure 41 is disposed between the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3, and is connected to the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3 respectively. The drainage structure 41 has a drainage groove 411 extending along the first direction. The reinforcing structure 42 is disposed in the drainage groove 411 to form a first force transmission cavity 43 with the drainage groove 411.

[0037] In this embodiment, the shock absorber tower assembly 1 is a key load-bearing component in the vehicle body structure. Here, the shock absorber tower assembly 1 can be located on both sides of the engine compartment to fix the shock absorbers or struts of the suspension system and to transmit the suspension forces to the vehicle body frame.

[0038] In this embodiment, the structural form of the support member 2 can be varied. For example, the support member 2 can be a tubular structure, a plate structure, or a frame structure. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the installation position of the support member 2 can be determined according to functional requirements. For example, the support member 2 can be installed in the engine compartment of the vehicle body to form an engine compartment crossbeam. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.

[0039] In this embodiment, the front panel assembly 3 is a key partition component located between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment on the vehicle body, used to prevent heat, noise, vibration and exhaust gas from being directly transmitted into the passenger compartment.

[0040] In this embodiment, the structural design of the front wall panel assembly 3 can be varied. For example, the front wall panel assembly 3 may include a front wall panel 31 and a reinforcing beam 32 disposed on the front wall panel 31. In addition, the front wall panel assembly 3 may also include a sound insulation and heat insulation layer covering the front wall panel 31. This embodiment does not limit the scope of the application.

[0041] In this embodiment, the drainage structure 41 is a structure on the vehicle body used to guide and drain liquids such as rainwater and car wash water. Its main function is to prevent water from seeping into the vehicle interior or accumulating in the body cavities, thus avoiding rust, electrical short circuits, or mold growth on the interior. Furthermore, the installation location of the drainage structure 41 can be determined as needed; for example, the drainage structure 41 can be positioned near the windshield to form a windshield drainage channel.

[0042] In this embodiment, the drainage structure 41 can have various structural forms. For example, the drainage structure 41 can be an integral structure or a split structure. This embodiment does not limit the form. Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the drainage channel 411 on the drainage structure 41 can also have various forms. For example, the cross-sectional shape of the drainage channel 411 can be a regular shape such as a U-shape or a V-shape, or it can be an irregular shape. This embodiment also does not limit the cross-sectional shape.

[0043] In this embodiment, the reinforcing structure 42 serves to form a first force-transmitting cavity 43 together with the drainage trough 411. The reinforcing structure 42 can have various structural forms; for example, it can be a plate-like structure, a block-like structure, or a frame structure. This embodiment does not limit the specific form of the reinforcing structure 42. Similarly, the first force-transmitting cavity 43 can have various structural forms; for example, it can be a closed cavity, an open cavity, or a multi-cavity composite structure. This embodiment also does not limit the specific form of the first force-transmitting cavity 43.

[0044] In this embodiment of the application, the angle between the first direction and the second direction can be various. For example, the angle between the first direction and the second direction can be an acute angle, such as 60 degrees; or, the angle between the first direction and the second direction can be a right angle; or, the angle between the first direction and the second direction can be an obtuse angle, such as 120 degrees. This embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0045] In the technical solution provided in this application embodiment, the vehicle body includes a shock absorber tower assembly 1, a support member 2, a front wall panel assembly 3, and a drainage assembly 4. The drainage assembly 4 includes a drainage structure 41 and a reinforcing structure 42. The support member 2 is connected to the shock absorber tower assembly 1 at both ends along a first direction. The shock absorber tower assembly 1 is used to fix the shock absorbers or struts of the suspension system to transmit the suspension force to the support member 2. The front wall panel assembly 3 and the support member 2 are spaced apart along a second direction. The drainage structure 41 is disposed between the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3, and is connected to both the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3, so that the force on the support member 2 can be transmitted to the front wall panel assembly 3 via the drainage structure 41. The reinforcing structure 42 is disposed in the drainage channel 411 of the drainage structure 41, forming a first force transmission cavity 43 with the drainage channel 411. Thus, the drainage structure 41 can transmit and disperse dynamic loads through the first force transmission cavity 43, improving the structural strength of the drainage structure 41 and reducing the probability of deformation due to excessive force.

[0046] Compared to the technical solution where the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3 are separate components, in this embodiment, the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3 are connected by a drainage structure 41. Thus, when the vehicle body is impacted, referring to... Figure 6 , Figure 6 The arrows in the diagram indicate the direction of impact force transmission. After being transmitted from the shock absorber tower assembly 1 to the support member 2, the impact force can continue to be transmitted to the front wall panel assembly 3 through the drainage structure 41. In this way, the impact force is dispersed through multiple stages, avoiding localized stress concentration and improving the vehicle's impact performance. Furthermore, since the support member 2 and the front wall panel assembly 3 are connected by the drainage structure 41, there is no need for the drainage structure 41 to create a clearance space between the front wall panel assembly 3 and the support member 2. Therefore, the drainage structure 41 can be made using lower-cost sheet metal parts, thereby reducing the vehicle's manufacturing cost.

[0047] In this embodiment, the reinforcing structure 42 can have various structural forms, for example, referring to... Figure 7 The drainage trough 411 has a first sidewall 4111 and a second sidewall 4112 arranged opposite to each other along a second direction. The reinforcing structure 42 may include a first reinforcing plate 423 and a second reinforcing plate 424. One end of the first reinforcing plate 423 can be connected to the first sidewall 4111, and the other end can be connected to the bottom wall of the drainage trough 411. One end of the second reinforcing plate 424 can be connected to the second sidewall 4112, and the other end can be connected to the bottom wall of the drainage trough 411. Thus, the first reinforcing plate 423 and the second reinforcing plate 424 together with the drainage trough 411 form a first force transmission cavity 43.

[0048] Reference Figure 1In one possible embodiment of this application, the reinforcing structure 42 includes a reinforcing member 421, and the drainage channel 411 has a first sidewall 4111 and a second sidewall 4112 disposed opposite to each other along a second direction. A first end of the reinforcing member 421 is connected to the first sidewall 4111, and a second end of the reinforcing member 421 is connected to the second sidewall 4112, so that they together with the drainage channel 411 form a first force-transmitting cavity 43. Here, the reinforcing structure 42 includes the reinforcing member 421, and the first force-transmitting cavity 43 is formed by the reinforcing member 421 and the drainage channel 411, which simplifies the structural form of the reinforcing structure 42 and reduces production costs. When the impact force is transmitted to the drainage structure 41, the reinforcing member 421 provides support for the sidewalls (such as the first sidewall 4111 and the second sidewall 4112) of the drainage channel 411, allowing the impact force to be dispersed along the path of the sidewall-reinforcing member 421, thereby improving the bending and torsional resistance of the drainage channel 411.

[0049] In this embodiment, the structural form of the reinforcing member 421 can be various. For example, the reinforcing member 421 can be a sheet metal structure, a rod-shaped structure, or a frame structure. This embodiment does not limit the specific form of the reinforcing member 421.

[0050] In this embodiment, the connection between the reinforcing member 421 and the side wall of the drainage channel 411 can be varied. For example, the reinforcing member 421 and the side wall of the drainage channel 411 can be connected by fasteners, such as hexagonal flange bolts or blind rivets. The specifications and quantity of the fasteners can be determined according to actual needs. Alternatively, the reinforcing member 421 and the side wall of the drainage channel 411 can also be connected by bonding, welding, or other methods. This embodiment does not limit the connection in this regard.

[0051] To further enhance the structural strength of drainage structure 41, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the reinforcing member 421 has a support portion 4211, which connects to the bottom of the drainage channel 411. Thus, the reinforcing member 421, in addition to connecting to the two side walls of the drainage channel 411, is also connected to the bottom of the drainage channel 411 via the extended support portion 4211, forming a triangular stable structure of "side wall-reinforcing member 421-bottom," significantly improving the structural strength of the drainage structure 41.

[0052] In this embodiment, the connection between the support part 4211 and the bottom of the drainage channel 411 can be varied. For example, the support part 4211 and the bottom of the drainage channel 411 can be connected by fasteners, such as hexagonal flange bolts or blind rivets. The specifications and quantity of the fasteners can be determined according to actual needs. Alternatively, the support part 4211 and the bottom of the drainage channel 411 can also be connected by bonding, welding, or other methods. This embodiment does not limit the connection in this respect.

[0053] It should be noted that while the support part 4211 is connected to the bottom of the drainage channel 411, it should avoid blocking the drainage channel 411, thereby affecting the drainage function of the drainage channel 411. For example, while the support part 4211 is connected to the bottom of the drainage channel 411, a clearance hole for water supply can be formed between the support part 4211 and the drainage channel 411; or, a drainage hole for water supply can be provided on the support part 4211. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0054] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one possible embodiment of this application, the dimension of the support portion 4211 gradually decreases along the depth direction of the drainage channel 411 in the second direction, and the depth direction of the drainage channel 411 forms an angle with both the first and second directions. Research has shown that when the drainage structure 41 transmits impact force, the load on the drainage structure 41 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening of the drainage channel 411 towards the bottom. Here, the gradual decrease in the dimension of the support portion 4211 along the depth direction of the drainage channel 411 in the second direction serves two purposes: firstly, it allows for a gradual matching with the load on the drainage structure 41, avoiding material redundancy in the support portion 4211; secondly, it reduces the volume occupied by the support portion 4211 within the drainage channel 411, thereby minimizing its impact on the drainage performance of the drainage channel 411.

[0055] In this embodiment of the application, the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the first and second directions can be various. For example, the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the first direction can be equal to the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the second direction; or, the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the first direction can be greater than the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the second direction; or, the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the first direction can be less than the angle between the depth direction of the drainage trough 411 and the second direction. This embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0056] In this embodiment, the reinforcing structure 42 and the sidewall of the drainage structure 41 can be directly connected or indirectly connected. This embodiment does not limit this connection.

[0057] Reference Figure 6 In one possible embodiment of this application, the drainage structure 41 is connected to the front wall panel assembly 3 via a second sidewall 4112. The reinforcing structure 42 further includes a fastener 422, and the second end of the reinforcing member 421 is connected to the second sidewall 4112 via the fastener 422. Here, the drainage structure 41 is connected to the front wall panel assembly 3 via the second sidewall 4112 to form a continuous structure. The second end of the reinforcing member 421 is connected to the second sidewall 4112 via the fastener 422, which can provide local stiffness compensation at the connection point, further improving the connection strength between the reinforcing member 421 and the drainage structure 41.

[0058] In this embodiment of the application, there are multiple possibilities for the connection between the front wall panel assembly 3 and the drainage structure 41. For example, the front wall panel assembly 3 and the drainage structure 41 can be directly connected or indirectly connected. This embodiment of the application does not limit this connection.

[0059] Reference Figure 6 In one possible embodiment of this application, the front wall panel assembly 3 includes a front wall panel 31 and a reinforcing beam 32. The front wall panel assembly 3 is connected to the drainage structure 41 via the front wall panel 31, and the reinforcing beam 32 is disposed on the side of the front wall panel 31 facing away from the drainage structure 41. Here, the connection between the front wall panel assembly 3 and the drainage structure 41 via the front wall panel 31 can increase the contact area between the front wall panel assembly 3 and the drainage structure 41, thereby improving the impact force transmission effect. The placement of the reinforcing beam 32 on the side of the front wall panel 31 facing away from the drainage structure 41 can form a "sandwich" structure of drainage structure 41-front wall panel 31-reinforcing beam 32, enhancing the structural strength of the front wall panel assembly 3.

[0060] In this embodiment, the support member 2 and the drainage structure 41 can be directly connected or indirectly connected; this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this. (Refer to...) Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one possible embodiment of this application, the vehicle body further includes a connector 5, and the drainage structure 41 has a flange 412, which is disposed at the opening of the drainage channel 411. The support member 2 is connected to the flange 412 via the connector 5. Here, the flange 412 is provided at the opening of the drainage channel 411, which can improve the structural strength of the drainage structure 41 on the one hand; on the other hand, the flange 412 also has a process positioning function, thereby helping to realize the rapid assembly of the support member 2 and the drainage structure 41.

[0061] In this embodiment, the structure of the connector 5 can be varied. For example, the connector 5 can be a plate-like structure, a rod-like structure, or a frame structure. This embodiment does not limit the specific form of the connector.

[0062] In this embodiment, the connection between the connector 5 and the flange 412 of the drainage structure 41 can be varied. For example, the connector 5 and the flange 412 of the drainage structure 41 can be connected by fasteners, such as hexagonal flange bolts or blind rivets. The specifications and quantity of the fasteners can be determined according to actual needs. Alternatively, the connector 5 and the flange 412 of the drainage structure 41 can also be connected by bonding, welding, or other methods. This embodiment does not limit the connection in this respect.

[0063] In this embodiment of the application, the number of connectors 5 along the second direction can be varied. For example, one connector 5 can be provided, two can be provided at intervals, or more than two can be provided at intervals. This embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0064] Reference Figure 5 In one possible embodiment of this application, the connector 5 has a first flange 51 and a second flange (not shown in the figure) spaced apart along a third direction. The first flange 51 is connected to the support member 2, and the second flange is connected to the flange 412. The third direction forms an angle with the first direction and the second direction, respectively. Here, the connector 5 is connected to the support member 2 and the flange 412 through the flanges. On the one hand, this can increase the contact area between the connector 5 and the support member 2 and the flange 412, thereby improving the impact force transmission effect. On the other hand, during the assembly of the vehicle body, the connector 5 can be positioned by abutting against the support member 2 and the flange 412 through the flanges, which helps to improve the assembly efficiency of the vehicle body.

[0065] In this embodiment of the application, the angle between the third direction and the first direction and the second direction can be various. For example, the angle between the third direction and the first direction can be equal to the angle between the third direction and the second direction; or, the angle between the third direction and the first direction can be greater than the angle between the third direction and the second direction; or, the angle between the third direction and the first direction can be less than the angle between the third direction and the second direction. This embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0066] To reduce the weight of connector 5, refer to Figure 5 In this embodiment, the connector 5 may also be provided with a weight-reducing hole 53. The shape of the weight-reducing hole 53 can be varied; for example, it can be circular, square, or trapezoidal. This embodiment does not limit this. Furthermore, the number of weight-reducing holes 53 can be varied; for example, it can be one, two, or more than two. This embodiment also does not limit this.

[0067] Reference Figure 5In one possible embodiment of this application, the connector 5 has a third flange 52 and a fourth flange (not shown in the figure) spaced apart along a first direction. At least one of the first flange 51 and the second flange, together with the third flange 52 and the fourth flange, forms a second force transmission cavity (not shown in the figure). In this way, the connector 5 can transmit and distribute dynamic loads through the second force transmission cavity, thereby improving the structural strength of the connector 5 and reducing the probability of the connector 5 deforming due to excessive force.

[0068] In this application embodiment, the structure of the second force transmission cavity can be various. For example, the second force transmission cavity can be a closed cavity, an open cavity, or a multi-cavity composite structure.
