Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more particularly to a door, dashboard, and vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] The most noticeable seams in the cabin come from the connection between the dashboard, the front pillar (A-pillar), and the front doors. When passengers are in the cabin and the front doors are closed, the size of the seams plays an important role in their visual experience. The size of the seams affects the interior effect of the cabin, and it is also an important indicator for measuring the manufacturing precision and perceived quality of the vehicle.
[0003] In related technologies, in order to control the size of the seams, the various structures are usually assembled with a tight fit. However, this method can only reduce the seams to a certain extent, and the seams will not be completely eliminated. The interior effect of the cabin is still limited by the seams. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a car door, a dashboard, and a vehicle, the combination of which can improve the interior effect of the vehicle.
[0005] The first aspect of this application provides a vehicle door, comprising:
[0006] The door body has an inner surface facing the interior of the cabin;
[0007] And a plurality of first decorative blades, the first decorative blades being disposed on the inner surface and protruding in a direction away from the inner surface, the plurality of first decorative blades being stacked from top to bottom and adapted to be staggered with a plurality of second decorative blades on the dashboard to cover the seam between the door and the dashboard.
[0008] According to the vehicle door described in the first aspect of this application, the first decorative leaf protrudes away from the inner surface, thus providing a certain degree of obstruction. Based on this obstruction, the seam between the door and the dashboard can be concealed in the downward line of sight, thereby eliminating or weakening the seam between the door and the dashboard. This creates the impression of a continuous, uninterrupted surface in the cabin, resulting in a seamless interior effect and a simpler, more sophisticated interior design. Furthermore, when multiple first decorative leaves and multiple second decorative leaves are interlaced and layered, the obstruction effect can be strengthened, enhancing the elimination or weakening effect of the seam. Alternatively, because multiple first decorative leaves and multiple second decorative leaves are interlaced and layered, the seam can be segmented and refined between each first decorative leaf and each second decorative leaf, also achieving the effect of eliminating or weakening the seam.
[0009] In one possible implementation, the first decorative leaf is movably disposed on the door body, the door body having an open state and a closed state, the first decorative leaf having a retracted position corresponding to the open state and an extended position corresponding to the closed state; the door is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the first decorative leaf to move between its retracted position and its extended position.
[0010] In one possible implementation, the first decorative blade includes a first end and a second end, the first end being rotatably connected to the door body, the first decorative blade having a first mating part, and the vehicle having a second mating part, the first mating part being used to form a track structure with the second mating part, the track structure having a first limit position and a second limit position, the track structure being in the first limit position when the first decorative blade is in the retracted position, and the track structure being in the second limit position when the first decorative blade is in the extended position.

[0015] In one possible implementation, when the first decorative leaf is in the retracted position, the angle between the first decorative leaf and the inner surface is a first angle, and when the first decorative leaf is in the extended position, the angle between the first decorative leaf and the inner surface is a second angle, the second angle being greater than the first angle.
[0016] In one possible implementation, the first decorative blade includes a first sub-blade, a second sub-blade, and an nth sub-blade arranged sequentially from top to bottom. When the first decorative blade is in the extended position, the second included angle between the first sub-blade, the second sub-blade, and the nth sub-blade and the inner surface decreases sequentially.
[0017] The n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 3.
[0018] In one possible implementation, a first fixing blade is also provided on the inner surface, the first fixing blade being adapted to dock with or cover a second fixing blade on the dashboard, the first fixing blade being disposed above and / or below the first decorative blade.

[0022] According to the dashboard described in the second aspect of this application, the staggered layering between the second decorative blade and the first decorative blade can eliminate or weaken the seam between the door and the dashboard, thereby creating the impression of a continuous, uninterrupted surface in the cabin, thus forming a seamless interior effect in the cabin, resulting in a simpler and more advanced interior effect.
[0023] In one possible implementation, the dashboard body is further provided with a second fixed blade, which is adapted to dock with or cover a first fixed blade on the door, and the second fixed blade is disposed on the upper and / or lower side of the second decorative blade.
[0024] In one possible implementation, the ends of the plurality of second decorative blades away from the dashboard body form an outer contour surface, which is an arc surface.

[0035] The accompanying drawings illustrate specific embodiments of this application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concept of this application to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation
[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0037] To facilitate vehicle production, transportation, and assembly, the various functional components of a vehicle are typically designed separately, and then assembled sequentially to form the complete vehicle. For the front half of the vehicle's structure, such as the cabin, the main components include the dashboard, front pillars, and front doors. The dashboard usually surrounds the bottom of the front pillars, forming a seam between them. When the front doors are closed, another, more noticeable seam forms between the dashboard and the front door, and between the front pillar and the front door. The combination of these two seams constitutes the most prominent seam feature in the cabin.
[0038] Therefore, it can be known that the most conspicuous seams in the cabin come from the connection between the dashboard, the front pillar (A-pillar), and the front door. When the passengers are in the cabin and the front door is closed, the size of the seam plays an important role in the passengers' visual perception. The size of the seam affects the interior effect of the cabin, and the size of the seam is also an important indicator for measuring the manufacturing precision and perceived quality of the vehicle.
[0039] In related technologies, in order to control the size of the seams, the various structures are usually assembled with a tight fit. For example, the dashboard is tightly surrounded by the outer perimeter of the front pillar. However, this method can only reduce the seams to a certain extent. The seams will not be completely eliminated, and the interior effect of the cabin is still limited by the seams.
[0040] Furthermore, the use of tight-fitting assembly methods leads to increased internal stress between various structures (primarily the dashboard, front pillars, and front doors). Over time, these tight fits loosen, causing gaps to widen. Because of the tight fit, the structures lack sufficient deformation or expansion space to mitigate collisions, hindering their ability to absorb impact forces and making them more susceptible to damage. This results in certain deficiencies in the vehicle's safety performance. Additionally, the need for tight fits increases the manufacturing precision and assembly difficulty of each structure.
[0041] In conclusion, the methods used in these technologies to reduce seams are ineffective; seams are not completely eliminated, and the interior design of the cabin remains limited by them. Furthermore, the trend of increasingly larger seams due to tight-fitting seams also affects vehicle safety, increases the manufacturing precision of various structures, and complicates assembly.
[0042] Based on the aforementioned situation and problems, this application provides a vehicle door with stacked decorative blades on its inner surface. These decorative blades can, in some cases, be linked to the movement of the door or have a drive mechanism directly installed on the door. This allows the decorative blades to move and cover the seam between the door and the dashboard or between the door and the front pillar after the door is closed, thereby creating a seamless interior effect in the cabin, resulting in a simpler and more sophisticated interior design. The use of these decorative blades also improves the manufacturing precision and quality of the vehicle.
[0043] To achieve linkage between the decorative blades and the car door, the decorative blades can be connected to the car door. The decorative blades are configured to move on a predetermined track, and the movement of the decorative blades can be caused by opening and closing the door.
[0044] Alternatively, in other embodiments, a drive mechanism can be installed on the door, and then the decorative blade can be connected to the output end of the drive mechanism, so that the decorative blade can be moved by the power output of the drive mechanism.
[0045] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not limit the specific structure of the decorative blades or the specific connection relationship between the decorative blades and the vehicle door. Furthermore, when a drive mechanism is provided on the vehicle door, the specific location and type of the drive mechanism are not subject to excessive restrictions.
[0046] To achieve a coordinated arrangement with the decorative blades on the vehicle door, this application embodiment also provides a dashboard with a structure adapted to the decorative blades. For example, decorative blades can also be provided on the dashboard, allowing them to intersect and overlap with the decorative blades on the vehicle door, thereby concealing the seam between the dashboard and the door. Furthermore, since the dashboard is fixedly installed in the cabin, the decorative blades on the dashboard can be either fixedly installed or movable. When a movable installation is used, a related drive mechanism can be provided on the dashboard to move the decorative blades.
[0047] Based on the aforementioned door and dashboard, this application embodiment also provides a vehicle that may include the aforementioned door and dashboard, and the interior effect of the vehicle can be improved through the cooperation between the door and the dashboard.
[0048] The various embodiments of the application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, for ease of distinction, the decorative blade provided on the vehicle door is the first decorative blade, and the decorative blade provided on the dashboard is the second decorative blade.
[0049] Figure 1A schematic diagram of a vehicle door 100 in an open state according to an embodiment of this application is shown; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a vehicle door 100 in a closed state, according to an embodiment of this application, is shown.
[0050] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The vehicle includes doors 100 and dashboard 200.
[0051] It should be noted that the embodiments of this application do not limit the specific structure of the door 100 and the dashboard 200. For example, in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the example shown, the door 100 can be constructed as a streamlined structure with a certain curvature, thereby improving the vehicle's appearance. The inner structure of the door 100 is a key feature of this embodiment. For example, in... Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the example shown, the dashboard 200 can be installed in the vehicle along the width direction, and the surface structure of the dashboard 200 facing the occupants is another key feature of the embodiments of this application.
[0052] It is understandable that a seam will be formed between the car door 100 and the dashboard 200. After the car door 100 is closed, this seam will affect the visual experience of the passengers. Therefore, in this embodiment, a plurality of first decorative blades 110 are provided on the car door 100 and a plurality of second decorative blades 210 are provided on the dashboard 200. The plurality of first decorative blades 110 and the plurality of second decorative blades 210 can be staggered and overlapped in space to cover the seam between the car door 1000 and the dashboard 200.
[0053] As can be seen from the following embodiments, both the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 can be designed as flat, blade-like structures. Multiple first decorative blades 110 are stacked from top to bottom, and multiple second decorative blades 210 are stacked from top to bottom. This staggered stacking indicates that the first decorative blades 110 can be sandwiched between the second decorative blades 210. It should be understood that the staggered stacking does not limit the number of blades. In some cases, the first decorative blades 110 and the second decorative blades 210 can appear alternately from top to bottom, in which case the number of first decorative blades 110 and the number of second decorative blades 210 can be the same. In other cases, from top to bottom, one or more decorative blades can appear after every two or more first decorative blades 110, in which case the number of first decorative blades 110 and the number of second decorative blades 210 can be different.
[0054] In this embodiment, since the first decorative blade 110 on the door 100 can be staggered with the second decorative blade 210 on the dashboard 200, the seam between the door 100 and the dashboard 200 can be eliminated or weakened by the staggered first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210, thereby creating the impression of a continuous and uninterrupted surface in the cabin, thus creating a seamless interior effect in the cabin, resulting in a simpler and more advanced interior effect.
[0055] Furthermore, since the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 are stacked, they can be fitted together with a gap. There is no need for a large internal stress between the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210, so that the seam that has been eliminated or weakened will not reappear after long-term use.
[0056] Furthermore, since the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 are stacked, they can be fitted with a gap, which provides more expansion or deformation space to absorb impact force and protect structures such as the dashboard 200 or the door 100, thereby improving vehicle safety.
[0057] Furthermore, since the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 are stacked, they can be fitted with a gap, providing sufficient assembly space. The manufacturing precision of the first decorative blade 110, the door 100, the dashboard 200, and the second decorative blade 210 can be reduced. In other words, the design of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 can be compatible with and absorb design precision, assembly precision, etc. without affecting the interior. At the same time, the assembly difficulty of each structure is also reduced.
[0058] To better understand the door 100 and dashboard 200 in the embodiments of this application, the following embodiments will describe the door 100 and dashboard 200 respectively. It should be understood that the following description mainly involves the two major design focuses mentioned above. Other structures of the door 100 and dashboard 200 can be understood by referring to relevant technologies.
[0059] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The door 100 includes a door body 120 and a plurality of first decorative blades 110.
[0060] The door body 120 is the main structure of the door 100. The door body 120 has certain requirements for structural strength. The materials and structure used in the door body 120 can refer to relevant technologies.
[0061] In this embodiment, the door body 120 has an inner surface 121 facing the interior of the cabin (see reference). Figure 3 Here, the cabin refers to the space where the front seats of the vehicle are located. In other words, the inner surface 121 of the door body 120 refers to the side of the door body 120 facing the front seats.
[0062] Multiple first decorative blades 110 are disposed on the inner surface 121 and protrude in a direction away from the inner surface 121. The multiple first decorative blades 110 are stacked from top to bottom and are adapted to be stacked alternately with multiple second decorative blades 210 on the dashboard 200 to cover the seam between the door 100 and the dashboard 200.
[0063] The first decorative blade 110 can be a flat plate or an arc-shaped structure with a certain curvature. The first decorative blade 110 protrudes away from the inner surface 121, indicating that the first decorative blade 110 and the inner surface 121 are not parallel. For example, in some embodiments, when the first decorative blade 110 is a flat plate, the first decorative blade 110 can be perpendicular to the inner surface 121, or the first decorative blade 110 and the inner surface 121 can form an angle, which can fluctuate around 90°.
[0064] Understandably, because the first decorative blade 110 protrudes away from the inner surface 121, it has a certain shielding effect. Based on this shielding effect, the seam between the door 100 and the dashboard 200 can be shielded in the downward line of sight, thereby eliminating or weakening the seam between the door 100 and the dashboard 200, thus creating the impression of a continuous, uninterrupted surface in the cabin. This results in a seamless interior effect in the cabin, leading to a simpler and more upscale interior design. When multiple first decorative blades 110 and multiple second decorative blades 210 are staggered and layered, the shielding effect can be strengthened, improving the elimination or weakening effect of the seam. Alternatively, because multiple first decorative blades 110 and multiple second decorative blades 210 are staggered and layered, the seam can be segmented and refined between each first decorative blade 110 and each second decorative blade 210, which can also eliminate or weaken the seam.
[0065] The core of this application embodiment lies in eliminating or weakening the seam between the door 100 and the dashboard 200 by the staggered layering of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210. Based on this, the specific shape and setting position of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 are not subject to too many restrictions.
[0066] It is understood that, in some embodiments, the interior design effect can be further enhanced by reasonably setting the specific structures of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210, and by reasonably configuring the placement positions of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210. For example, one can refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the following embodiments, the first decorative blade 110 adopts a flat plate structure, and after the car door 100 is closed, the multiple first decorative blades 110 present different postures. For example, the first decorative blade 110 located at the top can have a larger coverage area. To achieve the above objective, the embodiments of this application can set the first decorative blade 110 to an active state, so that the first decorative blade 110 can change its position as the car door 100 moves. The following embodiments will describe the active setting of the first decorative blade 110.
[0067] Figure 3 A diagram showing the kinematic relationship between a door body 120 and a first decorative blade 110 according to an embodiment of this application is provided.
[0068] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 A first decorative blade 110 is movably mounted on the door body 120, which has an open state and a closed state. The first decorative blade 110 has a retracted position corresponding to the open state and an extended position corresponding to the closed state. During the process of the door body 120 switching from the open state to the closed state, the first decorative blade 110 switches from the retracted position to the extended position and extends toward the second decorative blade. The aforementioned drive mechanism can be mounted on the door to drive the first decorative blade 110 to move between the retracted position and the extended position.
[0069] It should be noted that this can be used as a reference. Figure 3 The "S" marking in the figure indicates the retraction position, which refers to the position where the first decorative blade 110 needs to be away from the dashboard 200 when the door 100 is opened. (See reference...) Figure 3 The "W" marking indicates that the extended position refers to the position where the first decorative blade 110 needs to approach and extend between the second decorative blade 210 when the door 100 is closed. It can be understood that the retracted position is where the first decorative blade 110 is closer to the door body 120, and the extended position is where the first decorative blade 110 is further away from the door body 120.
[0070] The above embodiments enable the movement of the first decorative blade 110 to correspond to the opening and closing of the door 100, and the first decorative blade 110 can make full use of the space inside the vehicle when the door 100 is in different states. Specifically, when the door 100 is in the open state, at least part of the first decorative blade 110 can be exposed with the door 100. At this time, the inside of the door 100 has enough space to accommodate the first decorative blade 110. Therefore, the first decorative blade 110 is in the retracted position and can be closer to the door 100. When the door 100 is in the closed state, the first decorative blade 110 needs to be accommodated in the cabin, and the space to accommodate the first decorative blade 110 is compressed. At this time, by switching the first decorative blade 110 to the extended position and away from the door 100, the first decorative blade 110 can extend further into the cabin, thereby making full use of the compressed space in the cabin.
[0071] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The first decorative blade 110 and the door body 120 can also form a linkage structure. The first decorative blade 110 is connected to the door body 120. During the process of the door body 120 switching from the open state to the closed state, the door body 120 can act on the first decorative blade 110 and drive the first decorative blade 110 to switch from the retracted position to the extended position.
[0072] The above embodiment establishes a linkage structure between the door body 120 and the first decorative blade 110, and applies a force to the first decorative blade 110 by the door body 120, which can push or pull the first decorative blade 110 to switch between the retracted position and the extended position.
[0073] For example, please refer to Figure 3 A portion of the first decorative blade 110 is connected to the door body 120. When the door 100 is switching from the open state to the closed state, the door body 120 can push the first decorative blade 110 from the retracted position to the extended position. When the door 100 is switching from the closed state to the open state, the door body 120 can pull the first decorative blade 110 from the extended position to the retracted position.
[0074] The above embodiment simplifies the connection between the door body 120 and the first decorative blade 110 by forming a linkage structure between the door body 120 and the first decorative blade 110, and also eliminates the need to set a drive mechanism, thus saving manufacturing costs.
[0075] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3The first decorative blade 110 includes a first end 111 and a second end 112. The first end 111 is rotatably connected to the door body 120. The first decorative blade 110 is provided with a first mating part 113, which is used to form a track structure with the second mating part 300.
[0076] The track structure here corresponds to the predetermined track mentioned earlier. The door body 120 can act on the first end 111, and the force can be transmitted to the entire first decorative leaf 110. Then, based on the setting of the track structure, the first decorative leaf 110 can switch between the retracted position and the extended position.
[0077] The track structure can be separated from the first end 111. For example, the track structure can be located near the second end 112, thereby improving the stability of the first decorative blade 110 during movement.
[0078] In order to reasonably set the movement trajectory of the first decorative blade 110, the track structure has a first extreme position 1131a and a second extreme position 1131b. When the first decorative blade 110 is in the retracted position, the track structure is in the first extreme position 1131a, and when the first decorative blade 110 is in the extended position, the track structure is in the second extreme position 1131b.
[0079] The setting of the first limit position 1131a and the second limit position 1131b helps to simplify the operation. Specifically, during the process of closing the car door 100, the track structure moves from the first limit position 1131a to the second limit position 1131b, or during the process of opening the car door 100, the track structure moves from the second limit position 1131b to the first limit position 1131a, so that the action of opening and closing the car door 100 can receive feedback from the limit position, which can instruct the operator to make the correct opening and closing action.
[0080] In some specific embodiments, the vehicle may also be equipped with a signal warning mechanism, such as a proximity switch or an infrared sensor located at the first extreme position 1131a and the second extreme position 1131b. When the door 100 is in the open or closed state, the signal warning mechanism may generate sound, light or other signals to indicate the status information of the door 100.
[0081] In some specific embodiments, the first mating part 113 is located near the second end 112. In this case, the first end 111 can serve as the force-receiving end of the first decorative blade 110 for receiving the force from the door body 120, and the part of the first decorative blade 110 near the second end 112 can serve as the movable end of the first decorative blade 110. The force-receiving end and the movable end are separated from each other to ensure the force stability of the first decorative blade 110, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the first decorative blade 110.
[0082] It should be noted that the specific structure of the first mating part 113 and the second mating part 300 is not limited in the embodiments of this application, as long as the two can cooperate and form a predetermined track.
[0083] It should be noted that the second mating part 300 can be other structures on the vehicle, and the second mating part 300 can be located deep in the cabin, such as near the front of the vehicle.
[0084] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The first mating part 113 includes a sliding groove 1131, and the second mating part 300 includes a positioning post 310, or the first mating part 113 includes a positioning post 310 and the second mating part 300 includes a sliding groove 1131.
[0085] For simplicity, the following embodiment uses the first mating part 113 as the slide groove 1131 and the second mating part 300 as the positioning post 310 as an example. As described above, the first end 111 of the first decorative blade 110 can be movably connected to the door body 120. The slide groove 1131 on the first decorative blade 110 can engage with the positioning post 310. In other words, a force-bearing point can be formed between the first end 111 and the door body 120. The slide groove 1131 and the positioning post 310 can form a limiting point for the movement of the first decorative blade 110. Through the engagement of these two points, the first decorative blade 110 can switch between a retracted position and an extended position.
[0086] Specifically, please refer to Figure 3The end of the slide groove 1131 near the door body 120 is the second limit position 1131b, and the end of the slide groove 1131 away from the door body 120 is the first limit position 1131a. When the door 100 is in the open state, the first decorative leaf 110 is in the retracted state and is close to the door body 120, and the positioning post 310 is restricted at the first limit position 1131a. As the door 100 gradually closes, the door body 120 will apply a pushing force to the first end 111. This pushing force will spread to the entire first decorative leaf 110 and cause the positioning post 310 to gradually move to the second limit position 1131b. When the positioning post 310 is restricted at the second limit position 1131b, the door 100 is in the closed state. At this time, the first decorative leaf 110 switches to the extended state and moves away from the door body 120. On the other hand, when the door 100 is closed, the first decorative leaf 110 is extended and away from the door body 120, and the positioning post 310 is restricted to the second limit position 1131b. As the door 100 gradually opens, the door body 120 applies a pulling force to the first end 111, which spreads to the entire first decorative leaf 110 and causes the positioning post 310 to gradually move to the first limit position 1131a. When the positioning post 310 is restricted to the first limit position 1131a, the door 100 is open. At this time, the first decorative leaf 110 switches to a retracted state and approaches the door body 120.
[0087] In some specific embodiments, the slide 1131 is elongated, which simplifies the design of the slide 1131 and improves the smoothness of the movement of the positioning post 310 in the slide 1131, thereby ensuring the stability of the first decorative blade 110 in switching states.
[0088] It should be understood that in other embodiments, the groove 1131 may also adopt a wavy or arc-shaped structure.
[0089] The above embodiments illustrate the movement of the first decorative blade 110 by taking the linkage structure formed between the door body 120 and the first decorative blade 110 as an example. In other embodiments, the movement of the first decorative blade 110 can also be achieved by a drive mechanism.
[0090] For example, in some embodiments, a drive mechanism may be provided on the door 100 for driving the first decorative leaf 110 to switch between a retracted position and an extended position.
[0091] The drive mechanism may specifically include a power component and an execution component. The execution component may be, for example, a multi-link mechanism, a telescopic arm, or other structure capable of outputting linear motion and / or arc motion. The first decorative blade 110 may be connected to the output end of the execution component, and the first decorative blade 110 may be driven to move by the change in the movement of the execution component.
[0092] The power components can be hydraulic systems, motors, cylinders, etc., and this application does not impose any restrictions on them.
[0093] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 When the first decorative blade 110 is in the retracted position, the angle between the first decorative blade 110 and the inner surface 121 is the first angle. When the first decorative blade 110 is in the extended position, the angle between the first decorative blade 110 and the inner surface 121 is the second angle, and the second angle is greater than the first angle.
[0094] Based on the foregoing, the first angle and the second angle can be understood with the first end 111 as a reference. For example, the first decorative blade 110 extends from the first end 111 to the second end 112. The direction of extension here defines the first direction, and the inner surface 121 of the door body 120 defines the second direction. The angle between the first direction and the second direction forms the first angle or the second angle.
[0095] In conjunction with the foregoing, by setting the second included angle to be greater than the first included angle, it is beneficial to realize the switching of the first decorative blade 110 between the retracted position and the extended position. At the same time, it can reasonably match the spatial changes caused by the opening and closing of the door body 120, making it easy to accommodate the first decorative piece in the corresponding space.
[0096] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The first decorative blade 110 includes a first sub-blade 110a, a second sub-blade 110b, and an nth sub-blade 110c arranged sequentially from top to bottom. When the first decorative blade 110 is in the extended position, the second included angle between the first sub-blade 110a, the second sub-blade 110b, and the nth sub-blade 110c and the inner surface 121 decreases sequentially, where n is a positive integer greater than or equal to 3.
[0097] Understandably, to ensure visual uniformity, when the door 100 is open, each of the first decorative blades 110 can be positioned on the inner surface 121 at the same first included angle. This can be referenced in this case. Figure 1 This design allows the dashboard 200 and door 100 to form a continuous, integrated streamlined shape when the door 100 is open. When the door 100 is closed, setting the second angle to decrease sequentially helps create a tiered interior effect with a gradually decreasing coverage area from top to bottom. Specifically, see [reference needed]. Figure 2For the first sub-blade 110a at the top, because its second included angle is the largest, the first sub-blade 110a deviates from the door body 120 to the greatest extent. Then, as it moves downwards, the degree of deviation of each sub-blade from the door body 120 decreases, so that the multiple first decorative blades 110 cover each other in sequence, and the multiple first decorative blades 110 are arranged in a tiered manner.
[0098] In accordance with the foregoing, to ensure that each of the first decorative blades 110 has a different second included angle, the first decorative blades 110 can be designed in certain localized ways. For example, please refer to... Figure 3 The first decorative leaf 110, which is closer to the upper layer, can be designed to be shorter, so that the first end 111 can be closer to the side of the door body 120 near the front of the car. This allows the first decorative leaf 110, which is on the upper layer, to have a larger range of movement during the opening or closing of the door 100, resulting in a larger second included angle and thus forming the above-mentioned sequential coverage.
[0099] In addition, the above purpose can also be achieved by changing the angle or curvature of the slide 1131. For example, the slide 1131 in the upper first decorative leaf 110 can be set to be more inclined.
[0100] In addition, when a drive mechanism is provided on the door 100, the above purpose can be achieved by controlling the extension length of the drive mechanism.
[0101] In addition to the above, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A first fixed blade 130 is also provided on the inner surface 121. The first fixed blade 130 is adapted to dock with or cover the second fixed blade 230 on the instrument panel 200. The first fixed blade 130 is provided on the upper side and / or lower side of the first decorative blade 110.
[0102] The first fixed blade 130 is a non-movable blade structure, designed to compensate for the overlapping coverage areas of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210. For example, the first fixed blade 130 can be positioned on the upper side of the door body 120 to mate with or wrap around the second fixed blade 230 on the upper side of the dashboard 200, thereby creating a wider coverage area for the interior design. Alternatively, the first fixed blade 130 can also be positioned on the lower side of the door body 120 to mate with or wrap around the second fixed blade 230 on the lower side of the dashboard 200, thus creating a wider coverage area for the interior design.
[0103] It should be noted that the above docking refers to the fact that the ends of the first fixed blade 130 and the second fixed blade 230 can be aligned and spliced. The above includes means that the end of the first fixed blade 130 can be wrapped by the end of the second fixed blade 230. For example, the end of the second fixed blade 230 can form a receiving groove or other structure.
[0104] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The dashboard 200 includes a dashboard 200 body and a plurality of second decorative blades 210. The second decorative blades 210 are connected to the dashboard 200 body and protrude in a direction away from the dashboard 200 body. The plurality of second decorative blades 210 are adapted to be stacked in an alternating manner with a plurality of first decorative blades 110 on the door 100.
[0105] The protruding direction of the second decorative blade 210 can face the front seat. The staggered layering between the second decorative blade 210 and the first decorative blade 110 can eliminate or weaken the seam between the door 100 and the dashboard 200, thereby creating the impression of a continuous and uninterrupted surface in the cabin. This can create a seamless interior effect in the cabin, resulting in a simpler and more upscale interior effect.
[0106] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The dashboard 200 body is also provided with a second fixed blade 230, which is adapted to dock with or cover the first fixed blade 130 on the door 100. The second fixed blade 230 is provided on the upper side and / or lower side of the second decorative blade 210.
[0107] The assembly relationship between the second fixed blade 230 and the first fixed blade 130 has been described above and will not be repeated here.
[0108] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The outer contour surface 211 is formed at the end of the multiple second decorative blades 210 that is away from the main body of the instrument panel 200. The outer contour surface 211 is an arc surface.
[0109] Based on the previous description, setting the outer contour surface 211 as an arc surface can be combined with multiple first decorative blades 110 to form an interior effect where the connecting lines gradually move inward. At the same time, since the first decorative blades 110 can form a downward sequential covering pattern, the combination of the two can better weaken or eliminate the seam.
[0110] The parts not mentioned in the above embodiments of this application can be set in the following ways. It should be understood that the following methods are only illustrative examples.
[0111] For example, regarding the materials of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210, in order to improve product life, ensure appearance, and prevent injury to vehicle occupants, the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210 can be made of flexible or bend-resistant materials, such as foam laminates, leather, polymers, and bendable plastics.
[0112] For example, the purpose of eliminating or weakening the seam can be achieved by setting the surface features of the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210. For instance, the surface of the first decorative blade 110 can adopt a textured design, including curved stripes, etc., and the presence of the seam can be weakened by the cooperation between the stripes. Of course, in some cases, the textured design on the first decorative blade 110 can be the same as or different from the textured design on the second decorative blade 210.
[0113] In addition, to enhance the interior effect, a one-piece covering can be wrapped around the first decorative blade 110 and the second decorative blade 210. This covering can be made of a single piece of leather.
