Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle component technology, and in particular to a seat belt mounting structure, side panel assembly, and vehicle... Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the installation structure of the seat belt fixing point needs to be set inside the side panel during the side panel molding process. This setting method increases the difficulty of side panel development and design. At the same time, since there are certain differences in the installation and setting of the fixing point between different models, the side panel of each model needs to be developed specifically for the difference in the installation structure of the seat belt fixing point, which increases the development and manufacturing cost of the side panel and reduces the degree of commonality of the side panel between similar models. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main objective of this invention is to propose a seat belt installation structure, a side panel assembly, and a vehicle, which aims to separate the installation structures of the side panel and the seat belt into individual parts, thereby improving the standardization of the installation structures of the side panel and the seat belt and reducing costs.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a seat belt mounting structure installed on the side panel, the side panel comprising an inner panel and an outer panel, the seat belt mounting structure comprising:

[0005] Mounting plate, the mounting plate includes a first side and a second side disposed opposite to each other, the first side being used to connect the side of the inner plate away from the outer plate;

[0006] A reinforcing plate, the reinforcing plate being connected to the first side or the second side; and

[0007] The mounting part is located on the first side and connected to the mounting plate at the position corresponding to the reinforcing plate. The mounting part is used to install the guide ring of the seat belt located on the second side.

[0008] In one embodiment, the first side is recessed to form a groove, and the mounting plate is provided with a connecting flange along the periphery of the groove, the connecting flange being used to connect the inner plate.

[0009] In one embodiment, the reinforcing plate is adapted to be connected to the first side surface, and the reinforcing plate is disposed in accordance with the groove.

[0010] In one embodiment, the connecting flange has a recessed receiving groove on the first side, the receiving groove is through and communicates with the groove, and the periphery of the reinforcing plate is adapted to be installed in the receiving groove.

[0011] In one embodiment, the outer periphery of the connecting flange is provided with a plurality of clearance grooves, and the plurality of clearance grooves are distributed at intervals.

[0012] In one embodiment, the mounting plate is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs, which are recessed from the groove wall of the groove and are spaced apart along the length of the mounting plate.

[0013] In one embodiment, the mounting structure of the seat belt further includes a nut plate on which a nut is fixed, the nut plate being connected to the first side, and the mounting portion being configured as the nut.

[0014] In one embodiment, the reinforcing plate is connected to the first side, and the nut plate is connected to the side of the reinforcing plate opposite to the mounting plate. The mounting plate, the reinforcing plate, and the nut plate are provided with mounting holes, and the plurality of mounting holes and the screw holes of the nut are coaxially connected.

[0015] In one embodiment, the nut plate and the reinforcing plate are connected by welding.

[0016] In one embodiment, the nut and the nut plate are connected by welding.

[0017] In one embodiment, the reinforcing plate and the mounting plate are connected by welding.

[0018] In one embodiment, the mounting plate is used to be connected to the inner plate by welding.

[0019] This utility model also proposes a side panel assembly, which includes a side panel and a seat belt mounting structure as described above. The side panel is provided with a window frame, and the mounting plate is connected to the periphery of the window frame and located on the window frame near the rear pillar in the vehicle length direction.

[0020] This utility model also proposes a vehicle that includes the side panel assembly as described above.

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model connects the first side of the mounting plate to the inner panel of the sidewall, away from the outer panel, and connects the reinforcing plate and the mounting part to the mounting plate. In other words, the seatbelt mounting structure is connected to the outside of the sidewall. This allows the seatbelt mounting structure and the sidewall to be independently formed before being connected and fixed. This achieves the installation of the seatbelt guide ring without changing the overall structure of the sidewall, meeting the seatbelt layout requirements of different vehicle models and reducing modifications when the sidewall is used in different models. This improves the universality of the sidewall and seatbelt mounting structures, reducing development costs and mold investment. Secondly, the independently formed mounting structure facilitates manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance, improving the efficiency of vehicle production. Furthermore, the reinforcing plate is connected to the mounting plate, and the mounting part is connected to the first side of the mounting plate, corresponding to the position where the mounting plate connects to the reinforcing plate. The reinforcing plate enhances the structural strength and rigidity of the area where the mounting part is located on the mounting plate. The mounting part is for mounting the guide ring located on the second side of the mounting plate, so that both the mounting plate and the reinforcing plate participate in the force path of the guide ring and the mounting part, thereby effectively enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the seat belt mounting structure. This ensures that the seat belt can function stably in the event of a vehicle collision, without constraint failure due to local structural deformation, thus improving the passive safety of the entire vehicle. In this way, this technical solution not only solves the problems of poor versatility, long development cycle, and high cost caused by integrated design in the prior art, but also takes into account the structural strength and assembly flexibility of the fixing point on the seat belt.

[0036] In existing technologies, such as Figure 6 As shown, the upper fixing point 600 of the seat belt is located between the inner panel 510 and the outer panel 520 of the side panel 500. Screw holes and fixing holes are provided on the inner panel 510 for the installation of the guide ring of the upper fixing point 600, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the side panel 500 at the connection point 600 and ensuring the stress stability between the seat belt and the side panel 500. However, the installation structure of the upper fixing point 600 needs to be set inside the side panel 500 during the side panel 500 molding process, increasing the difficulty of the side panel 500's development and design. Furthermore, because the installation and setting of the upper fixing point 600 differ between different vehicle models, each model's side panel 500 requires specific development, increasing the development and manufacturing costs of the side panel 500 and reducing its universality among similar vehicle models.

[0037] This utility model proposes an installation structure for a seat belt.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, the installation structure of the safety belt is installed on the side panel 500, the side panel 500 includes an inner plate 510 and an outer plate 520, and the installation structure of the safety belt includes:

[0039] Mounting plate 100, the mounting plate 100 includes a first side 101 and a second side 102 disposed opposite to each other, the first side 101 being used to connect the side of the inner plate 510 opposite to the outer plate 520; and

[0040] Reinforcing plate 200, the reinforcing plate 200 is connected to the first side 101 or the second side 102; and

[0041] The mounting part is located on the first side 101 and is connected to the mounting plate 100 at the position corresponding to the reinforcing plate 200. The mounting part is used to install the guide ring of the safety belt located on the second side 102.

[0042] The technical solution of this utility model connects the first side 101 of the mounting plate 100 to the side of the inner plate 510 of the side wall 500 away from the outer plate 520 of the side wall 500. The reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting part are connected to the mounting plate 100, that is, the seat belt mounting structure is connected to the outside of the side wall 500. This allows the seat belt mounting structure and the side wall 500 to be independently formed and then connected and fixed. This achieves the installation of the seat belt guide ring without changing the overall structure of the side wall 500, meeting the needs of different vehicle models for seat belt arrangement and reducing the need for modifications when the side wall 500 is applied to different vehicle models. This improves the universality of the side wall 500 and the seat belt mounting structure, and reduces development costs and mold investment. Secondly, the independently formed mounting structure facilitates manufacturing, assembly and maintenance, improving the efficiency of vehicle production. Furthermore, the reinforcing plate 200 is connected to the mounting plate 100, and the mounting part is connected to the first side 101 of the mounting plate 100, correspondingly positioned at the connection point between the mounting plate 100 and the reinforcing plate 200. The reinforcing plate 200 enhances the structural strength and rigidity of the area where the mounting part is located on the mounting plate 100. The mounting part is for mounting the guide ring located on the second side 102 of the mounting plate 100, ensuring that both the mounting plate 100 and the reinforcing plate 200 participate in the force path of the mounting part and the guide ring. This effectively enhances the load-bearing capacity of the seat belt mounting structure, ensuring that the seat belt can function stably during a vehicle collision and will not fail due to local structural deformation, thus improving the passive safety of the entire vehicle. Therefore, this technical solution not only solves the problems of poor versatility, long development cycle, and high cost caused by integrated design in existing technologies, but also considers the structural strength and assembly flexibility of the fixing points on the seat belt.

[0043] It should be noted that the mounting plate 100 is configured with a plate structure with concave and convex shapes. The reinforcing plate 200 has a similar structural form to the mounting plate 100. Taking the inside and outside of the side panel 500 as references, the seat belt mounting structure is located outside the side panel 500. Furthermore, the first side 101 of the mounting plate 100 is connected to the inner plate 510 of the side panel 500, and the second side 102 of the mounting plate 100 is the side of the mounting plate 100 facing away from the inner plate 510. The reinforcing plate 200 can be connected to the first side 101, the second side 102, or both the first side 101 and the second side 102. For example, the reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting plate 100 can be separately formed and then connected, or the reinforcing plate 200 can be embedded in the mounting plate 100, and the reinforcing plate 200 is connected to the area of ​​the mounting plate 100 connecting to the guide ring, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the seat belt mounting structure and the guide ring. The mounting section is a component for mounting the guide ring of the seat belt in the mounting structure. The mounting section is located on the first side 101. When the reinforcing plate 200 is also located on the first side 101, the mounting section is connected to the side of the reinforcing plate 200 facing away from the mounting plate 100, thus the mounting section is indirectly connected to the first side 101 of the mounting plate 100 through the reinforcing plate 200. When the reinforcing plate 200 is located on the second side 102, the mounting section and the reinforcing plate 200 are respectively located on opposite sides of the mounting plate 100, and the mounting section is directly connected to the mounting plate 100 at the location where the reinforcing plate 200 is set. It can be understood that the structure of the mounting plate 100 connected to the inner plate 510 can also be reinforced, such as by adding a reinforcing member at the connection between the mounting plate 100 and the inner plate 510, or by extending a portion of the reinforcing plate 200 to the connection between the mounting plate 100 and the inner plate 510. Meanwhile, the guide ring is used for the seat belt to pass through. It is located at the upper fixing point of the seat belt on the side 500, so that the seat belt can be turned under the guidance of the guide ring, thereby applying a stable protective force to the shoulders of the driver and passengers on the seat, and ensuring the safety of the driver and passengers.

[0044] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The first side panel 101 has a recessed groove 110. A connecting flange 120 is provided along the periphery of the groove 110 on the mounting plate 100, which connects to the inner panel 510. The groove 110, formed by the recess on the first side panel 101 away from the side wall 500, provides installation space for the seatbelt guide ring or related components and enhances the structural strength of the mounting plate 100, thereby ensuring the installation structure and connection stability of the seatbelt. The connecting flange 120, surrounding the groove 110, connects to the inner panel 510, ensuring the connection stability between the mounting plate 100 and the inner panel 510. Since the opening of the groove 110 is located on the first side panel 101, the second side panel 102 of the mounting plate 100 exposed inside the vehicle can maintain a relatively complete shape, reducing the impact on the interior decoration. The groove 110 occupies most of the area of ​​the mounting plate 100, and the connecting flange 120 is not only provided along the periphery of the groove 110 but also distributed along the periphery of the mounting plate 100. The mounting portion is disposed on the reinforcing plate 200. Of course, in other embodiments, the groove 110 may also be recessed into the second side 102 facing the side 500; or, the mounting plate 100 has a plate-like structure with a plurality of reinforcing ribs formed on the surface of the plate.

[0045] Regarding the connection method between the mounting plate 100 and the inner plate 510, in one embodiment, please follow... Figure 1 and Figure 3 The mounting plate 100 is connected to the inner plate 510 by welding. Fixing the mounting plate 100 to the inner plate 510 by welding not only ensures high connection strength and structural stability but also adapts to complex vehicle body manufacturing processes, improving assembly efficiency. Compared to the structure where the seatbelt fixing point is integrally stamped with the side panel 500, this embodiment assembles the mounting plate 100 as an independent component by welding, reducing the manufacturing difficulty and mold complexity of the side panel 500, improving the versatility of the side panel 500 structure across different vehicle models, and thus reducing development and production costs. Simultaneously, the welded connection offers good adjustability, facilitating flexible adjustment of the installation position during vehicle model modifications or platform expansions, enhancing the product's flexible production capabilities. Referring to the above description of the connection between the connecting flange 120 and the inner plate 510, the portion of the mounting plate 100 welded to the inner plate 510 is the connecting flange 120. Here, the connecting flange 120 can be connected to the inner plate 510 using intermittent welding to ensure the stability of the connection between the mounting plate 100 and the inner plate 510. Of course, in other embodiments, the mounting plate 100 can also be connected to the inner plate 510 using screws.

[0046] Similarly, regarding the connection method between the reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting plate 100, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2The reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting plate 100 are connected by welding. Fixing the reinforcing plate 200 to the mounting plate 100 by welding not only ensures high connection strength and rigidity but also adapts to automated production processes, improving assembly efficiency and consistency. Furthermore, the welding connection offers good adjustability, allowing for flexible adjustment of the position and shape of the reinforcing plate 200 to meet different safety performance requirements during product modifications or platform expansions. In the event of a vehicle collision, the welded reinforcing plate 200 can more effectively work with the mounting plate 100 to bear the impact force on the seatbelt, preventing localized structural failure and thus improving the overall passive safety of the vehicle. Of course, in other embodiments, the reinforcing plate 200 can also be connected to the mounting plate 100 by screwing.

[0047] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The reinforcing plate 200 is adapted to connect to the first side 101 and is fitted to the groove 110. It can be understood that the reinforcing plate 200 is designed to conform to the contour of the groove 110, allowing it to closely fit the structural form of the mounting plate 100 corresponding to the groove 110. This not only improves space utilization but also enhances the contact area and connection stability between the reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting plate 100. Simultaneously, when the seat belt is subjected to impact loads, the reinforcing plate 200 can effectively disperse stress, enhance local rigidity, and prevent a decrease in safety performance due to structural deformation or tearing. The reinforcing plate 200 can be completely connected to the groove wall of the groove 110, or it can be partially connected to the connecting flange 120 in addition to being connected to the groove 110. This allows the force on the reinforcing plate 200 to be distributed not only to the mounting plate 100 and then transferred to the inner plate 510, but also directly transferred to the inner plate 510. Of course, in other embodiments, the reinforcing plate 200 may also cover or partially cover the groove of the recess 110 to improve the structural strength of the seat belt mounting structure.

[0048] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The connecting flange 120 has a recessed receiving groove 121 on the first side 101, which extends through the communicating groove 110. The periphery of the reinforcing plate 200 is fitted into the receiving groove 121. It can be understood that the periphery of the reinforcing plate 200 extends to the connecting flange 120. By providing the receiving groove 121 on the connecting flange 120 that communicates with the groove 110, not only is installation space provided for the periphery of the reinforcing plate 200, making the area of ​​the first side 101 corresponding to the connecting flange 120 relatively flat, this reduces the impact of the reinforcing plate 200 on the connection between the connecting flange 120 and the inner plate 510. Furthermore, it allows the reinforcing plate 200 to directly abut against the inner plate 510, so that the force on the reinforcing plate 200 can be either distributed to the mounting plate 100 and then transmitted to the inner plate 510, or directly transmitted to the inner plate 510, thus improving the stress stability of the seat belt installation structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the periphery of the reinforcing plate 200 may also be directly connected to the side of the connecting flange 120 corresponding to the first side 101, so that the part of the connecting flange 120 covers the periphery of the reinforcing plate 200, or the reinforcing plate 200 may be only connected to the groove wall of the groove 110.

[0049] Regarding the structural form in which the connecting flange 120 is connected to the inner plate 510, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 The outer periphery of the connecting flange 120 is recessed with multiple clearance grooves 122, which are spaced apart. It can be understood that the clearance grooves 122 are recessed from the outer periphery of the connecting flange 120 away from the groove 110. On the one hand, the clearance grooves 122 can avoid the protruding structures on the inner plate 510, facilitating the forming of the connecting flange 120 and its connection to the inner plate 510. On the other hand, referring to the above description of the welding between the connecting flange 120 and the inner plate 510, it reduces the concentration of the heat-affected zone during welding, reducing the risk of deformation caused by continuous welding, thereby improving the assembly accuracy and structural stability of the mounting plate 100. Simultaneously, while ensuring connection strength, the clearance grooves 122 create intermittent welding between the connecting plate and the inner plate 510, reducing welding workload and material consumption, improving production efficiency, and lowering manufacturing costs. Of course, in other embodiments, the outer periphery of the connecting flange 120 may also form a continuous and flush periphery, and the connecting flange 120 is provided with a clearance hole for the protruding part of the inner plate 510.

[0050] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The mounting plate 100 is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs 130, which are recessed into the groove wall of the groove 110 and spaced apart along the length of the mounting plate 100. It can be understood that the reinforcing ribs 130 are located in the groove 110 area of ​​the mounting plate 100, which is also a critical stress area where the mounting plate 100 is subjected to the tension of the seat belt. By setting the reinforcing ribs 130 in this critical stress area, the overall rigidity and load-bearing capacity of the mounting plate 100 are effectively improved. The reinforcing ribs 130, spaced apart along the length, extend along the width direction of the mounting plate 100. Their relatively short length allows for reasonable stress distribution, thus providing effective structural support to the groove 110 and preventing deformation or failure due to excessive local stress. Furthermore, by directly recessing the reinforcing ribs 130 into the groove wall of the groove 110, not only is a lightweight structural design achieved, but additional welding or assembly processes are also avoided, simplifying the manufacturing process and improving production efficiency. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the mounting plate 100 is arranged in the shape of a long plate, with the length direction being the vehicle height direction and the width direction being the vehicle's front-to-back direction.

[0051] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The seat belt mounting structure also includes a nut plate 300, on which a nut 400 is fixed. The nut plate 300 is connected to the first side panel 101, and the mounting part is configured as the nut 400. It can be understood that the mounting part, i.e., the nut 400, is located on the nut plate 300, and the nut plate 300 is located on the first side panel 101. This allows the seat belt guide ring to be detachably connected via bolts and the nut 400. Furthermore, the load between the nut 400 and the bolt on the nut plate 300 can be transferred to the side panel 500 via the mounting plate 100 and the reinforcing plate 200. In the event of a vehicle collision, the impact load borne by the seat belt can be more efficiently transferred to the inner panel 510 via the reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting plate 100. This not only improves the ease of assembly and maintenance / replacement of the guide ring but also enhances the stability and reliability of the seat belt mounting structure under stress, thereby improving the passive safety performance of the entire vehicle. In conjunction with the above description of the reinforcing plate 200 connecting to the first side 101 and the groove 110, the nut plate 300 and the nut 400 are also located on the first side 101 of the mounting plate 100, and within the space between the groove 110 and the inner plate 510. This provides a receiving space for the nut plate 300 and the nut 400, preventing them from being exposed in the vehicle interior. On the one hand, this allows the force on the nut 400 to be transmitted to the inner plate 510 via the nut plate 300, the reinforcing plate 200, and the mounting plate 100, enabling the seat belt mounting structure to effectively resist the impact from the seat belt. On the other hand, it also reduces protruding components inside the vehicle, lowering the probability of injury to the driver and passengers. Of course, in other embodiments, the nut 400 can also be directly connected to the reinforcing plate 200.

[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The reinforcing plate 200 is connected to the first side 101, and the nut plate 300 is connected to the side of the reinforcing plate 200 facing away from the mounting plate 100. The mounting plate 100, reinforcing plate 200, and nut plate 300 are provided with mounting holes, and multiple mounting holes are coaxially connected to the screw holes of the nut 400. It can be understood that by setting the nut plate 300 on the side of the reinforcing plate 200 facing away from the mounting plate 100, the force path between the nut 400 and the guide ring sequentially consists of the nut plate 300, the reinforcing plate 200, the mounting plate 100, and the inner plate 510, presenting a layer-by-layer transmission and reinforcement path, ensuring the stability of the mounting structure connected to the guide ring. Meanwhile, the coaxial connection design of the mounting holes and screw holes ensures that bolts or screws can smoothly pass through the mounting plate 100, reinforcing plate 200, and nut plate 300 and reliably engage with the nut 400. This improves the assembly accuracy of the seat belt mounting structure and the connection reliability of the guide ring to the mounting structure. It also effectively avoids assembly stress concentration or loosening caused by hole position deviations in each plate layer, thereby enhancing the stability and durability of the mounting structure under dynamic impact loads. The mounting plate 100, reinforcing plate 200, and nut plate 300 form a complete load-bearing system. In the event of a vehicle collision, the load borne by the seat belt can be transferred sequentially through the nut plate 300 and reinforcing plate 200 to the mounting plate 100 and the inner plate 510 of the side panel 500 via bolts or screws, achieving effective force transmission and dispersion, further ensuring the safety restraint performance of the occupants. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the reinforcing plate 200 can be connected to the second side 102, and the nut plate 300 can be connected to the first side 101.

[0053] Regarding the connection method between the nut plate 300 and the reinforcing plate 200, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The nut plate 300 and the reinforcing plate 200 are connected by welding; regarding the connection method of the nut 400 and the nut plate 300, in one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2The nut 400 and the nut plate 300 are connected by welding. By welding the nut plate 300 to the reinforcing plate 200 and further welding the nut 400 to the nut plate 300, the connection strength and stability between the various components of the seat belt mounting structure are ensured. At the same time, this welded assembly structure can form a stable and continuous load transmission path, so that the impact force borne by the seat belt can be efficiently transmitted to the mounting plate 100 and the inner plate 510 of the side wall 500 through the nut 400, nut plate 300, and reinforcing plate 200, thereby enhancing the passive safety of the entire vehicle. In the welding operation of each layer of the seat belt installation structure, the nut 400 is first welded and fixed to the nut plate 300. Then, the nut plate 300 and the reinforcing plate 200 are positioned on the mounting plate 100 using a welding fixture. Finally, the nut plate 300 and the reinforcing plate 200, and the reinforcing plate 200 and the mounting plate 100 are welded together in a single welding operation using welding equipment. This makes the seat belt installation structure a whole, simplifying the assembly process, facilitating automated welding production, and improving manufacturing efficiency. Of course, in other embodiments, the nut plate 300 and the reinforcing plate 200 can also be connected by screw fastening.

[0054] This utility model also proposes a side panel assembly, which includes a side panel 500 and a seat belt mounting structure. The specific structure of the seat belt mounting structure is as described in the above embodiments. Since this side panel assembly adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0055] In this embodiment, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 The side panel 500 is provided with a window frame 530, and a mounting plate 100 is connected to the periphery of the window frame 530, located near the rear pillar along the length of the vehicle. It can be understood that placing the mounting plate 100 near the rear pillar and around the periphery of the window frame 530 ensures that the installation position of the seatbelt anchor point complies with relevant regulations. Simultaneously, it utilizes a high-load-bearing area within the side panel 500 as a basis for seatbelt load transfer. This allows the impact force borne by the seatbelt to be more effectively transferred to the inner panel 510 of the side panel 500 and the vehicle frame via the reinforcing plate 200 and mounting plate 100 during a collision, improving the stability and reliability of the occupant restraint system. The area around the window frame 530 is typically a high-strength area in the vehicle body structure; connecting the seatbelt mounting structure here helps provide effective support for the seatbelt's load-bearing capacity and avoids increasing weight and manufacturing complexity by adding an additional reinforcing structure to the side panel 500.

[0056] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the window frame 530 can be a front window frame 530 of the vehicle, in which case the corresponding pillar is the B-pillar; the window frame 530 can also be a rear window frame 530 of the vehicle, in which case the corresponding pillar is the C-pillar. Similarly, the mounting plate 100 is connected to the window frame 530 near the rear pillar, reducing the space occupied by the window frame 530. A shielding glass or shielding part is provided on the outside of the window frame 530 relative to the mounting plate 100, reducing the impact of the mounting plate 100 on the use of the upper window glass of the window frame 530, and also reducing the impact of the seat belt installation structure on the vehicle's appearance. Furthermore, regarding the above description of the connecting flange 120, in this embodiment, the connecting flange 120 can be partially connected to the periphery of the window frame 530, while the portion of the connecting flange 120 relative to the window frame 530 is not connected to the side panel 500, or is connected to a component of the upper side panel mounting plate 100 of the window frame 530.

[0057] This utility model also proposes a vehicle including a side panel assembly. The specific structure of the side panel assembly is as described in the above embodiments. Since this vehicle adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here. In this embodiment, the vehicle can be configured as a freight version of a light passenger vehicle, a passenger version of a light passenger vehicle, or a regular commercial sedan, etc.

[0058] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
