[0074] This application provides a door handle box and a vehicle.
[0075] 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, and 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.
[0076] like Figures 1-25 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a door panel handle box. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The door handle box includes a lower trim panel assembly 1, a handle box assembly 2, and a handrail assembly 3 connected in sequence; further, the door handle box also includes a light-emitting assembly 4 located between the lower trim panel assembly 1 and the handle box assembly 2. (See also...) Figure 6 The handle box assembly 2 has a handle box body 21 near the lower trim panel assembly 1, on the side of which a plurality of first connecting parts 211 are formed sequentially along the length of the door (the attached drawings include a case where multiple guide lines converge and are only labeled with one number, but it should be noted that each guide line in this guiding method points to a corresponding labeled component; for example, Figure 6 There are 8 first connecting parts 211). Please refer to... Figures 8-9The light-emitting assembly 4 includes a housing 41 and a light-emitting element 42. The housing 41 includes a receiving portion 411 capable of accommodating the light-emitting element 42 and a plurality of second connecting portions 412 connected to the receiving portion 411. The plurality of second connecting portions 412 can be adapted and connected one-to-one with a plurality of first connecting portions 211.
[0077] It should be noted that when the door is closed, the lower trim panel assembly 1, the lighting assembly 4, the handle box assembly 2, and the armrest assembly 3 are arranged sequentially from the outside to the inside of the vehicle. The door has a thickness; when the door is closed, the direction of the door thickness is parallel to the direction from the outside to the inside of the vehicle, that is, parallel to the Y-axis. Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow. The door has a door height, and the door height direction is parallel to the Z-axis. The door height direction is... Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow. The car door has a length, and the length direction is parallel to both the door thickness direction and the door height direction; when the door is closed, the door length direction is parallel to the X-axis, and the door length direction is... Figure 1 The direction indicated by the middle arrow.
[0078] The armrest assembly 3 forms a clearance cavity 36 to avoid the handle box. The handle box assembly 2, in conjunction with the clearance cavity 36, forms the handle box, which has a storage space for items. The handle box assembly 2 is made of a light-transmitting material, allowing light to be transmitted into the handle box. The light-emitting element 42 of the light-emitting assembly 4 can function as a lighting lamp for illumination or as an ambient light to create ambiance.
[0079] Further explanation is needed; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 , Figures 17-20 The lower trim assembly 1 includes a lower trim frame 11, a lower trim foam 12, and a lower trim skin 13, connected sequentially from the outside to the inside. (See also...) Figure 1 , Figures 17-20 The handle box assembly 2 includes a handle box body 21 and a handle box skin 22, with the handle box skin 22 forming a handle box in conjunction with an avoidance cavity 36. The armrest assembly 3 includes an armrest frame 31, an armrest foam 34, and an armrest skin 35.
[0080] This configuration offers several advantages. First, the light-emitting assembly 4, with its light-emitting component 42 serving as an ambient light, provides users with a unique visual experience and ambiance. Second, the light-emitting assembly 4 is fixedly connected to the handle box assembly 2 and attached to the lower trim assembly 1, facilitating its placement and installation between the two. This rational arrangement not only makes it easy to disassemble and maintain the light-emitting assembly 4 on the lower trim assembly 1 but also avoids interfering with the use of the handle. Third, the handle box assembly 2 has a first connecting part 211, and the cover 41 of the light-emitting assembly 4 includes a second connecting part 412 corresponding to the first connecting part 211. Thus, through the cooperation of the first connecting part 211 and the second connecting part 412, the connection of the light-emitting assembly 4 to the handle box assembly 2 is achieved quickly and easily, facilitating disassembly and maintenance.
[0081] It should be noted that the first connecting part 211 and the second connecting part 412 can be one of the following: snap-fit, welding fit, screw fit, etc.
[0082] Preferably, the first connecting part 211 and the second connecting part 412 are screwed together; please refer to Figure 21 , Figures 23-24 Multiple second connecting parts 412 are fixedly connected to multiple first connecting parts 211 one-to-one by multiple first fasteners 5. In this way, the second connecting parts 412 and the first connecting parts 211 can be detachably connected by the first fasteners 5, thereby realizing the detachable connection of the light-emitting assembly 4 on the handle box assembly 2, which is convenient for disassembly, assembly and maintenance.
[0083] In some embodiments of this application, the first connecting portion 211 is located below the handle box body 21. The second connecting portion 412 is a mounting plate extending downward along the height direction of the door relative to the accommodating portion 411; multiple mounting plates are arranged at intervals. As described above, the downwardly extending mounting plates provide mounting points for the cover 41 to be installed below the handle box body 21. Its structure is simple, facilitating the assembly and installation of the cover 41, and making the operation convenient and quick.
[0084] In some embodiments of this application, the handle box assembly 2 and the armrest assembly 3 form a handle box with an accommodating space; the cover 41 is located outside the accommodating space of the handle box and is located on the side of the handle box near the lower trim assembly 1.
[0085] It should be noted that the armrest assembly 3 has a relief cavity 36, which together with the handle box body 21 forms the outer perimeter frame of the handle box. The handle box skin 22 covers the outer perimeter frame of the handle box, thus forming the outer surface of the handle box. As shown above, the handle box assembly 2 and the armrest assembly 3 form a handle box with accommodating space.
[0086] As described above, by limiting the position of the cover 41, the position of the light-emitting element 42 disposed inside the cover 41 is also limited to the outside of the handle box and the side of the handle box closer to the lower trim assembly 1. This enables the light source to illuminate the handle box from the outside of the vehicle to the inside, allowing the light source to directly enter the eyes of the occupants. Unlike the solution where "the light-emitting element is disposed on the side away from the lower trim assembly and the light source illuminates from the inside of the vehicle to the outside," it is not necessary to set a reflective light-emitting structure in the illumination path of the light source to ensure uniform reflection of the light source into the eyes of the occupants.
[0087] In some embodiments, the receiving portion 411 has a U-shaped structure, and the opening of the receiving portion 411 faces the handle box body 21.
[0088] The light strip 421 of the light-emitting component 42 is easily installed or removed through the slot of the receiving part 411, making assembly more convenient and faster; and the slot of the receiving part 411 faces the handle box body 21, so the light source of the light strip 421 is not blocked by the wall of the receiving part 411, and directly shines on the handle box through the handle box body 21, ensuring the illumination effect of the light source.
[0089] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 25 The handle box body 21 has a first limiting part 212. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 9 , Figure 25 The light-emitting element 42 includes a light-emitting strip 421 and a light-emitting end 422 disposed at the end of the light-emitting strip 421. The light-emitting strip 421 is located inside the receiving portion 411, and the light-emitting end 422 is located outside the receiving portion 411. The light-emitting end 422 has a second limiting portion 423. One of the first limiting portion 212 and the second limiting portion 423 is a snap-fit groove, and the other is a snap-fit rail that can be slidably connected to the snap-fit groove.
[0090] It should be noted that the light-emitting end 422 is equipped with an electronic control component for controlling the light-emitting strip 421.
[0091] Optionally, the second limiting part 423 is disposed on the side where the light-emitting end 422 connects to the light-emitting strip 421; the first limiting part 212 is disposed on the side surface of the handle box body 21 near the lower trim assembly 1, and two first limiting parts 212 are disposed opposite each other along the length direction of the door. Optionally, the second limiting part 423 is a snap-fit groove; the first limiting part 212 is a snap-fit rail. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 25Optionally, the snap-fit groove includes two L-shaped or L-shaped snap-fit groove portions 4231. Each snap-fit groove portion 4231 includes a first plate and a second plate. The two first plates of the two snap-fit groove portions 4231 are arranged in parallel and are perpendicularly connected to the side of the light-emitting end 422. The two second plates extend in a direction closer to each other. Optionally, the snap-fit rail includes two L-shaped or L-shaped snap-fit rail portions 2121. Each snap-fit rail portion 2121 includes a third plate and a fourth plate. The two third plates of the two snap-fit rail portions 2121 are arranged in parallel and are perpendicularly connected to the side of the handle box body 21. The two fourth plates extend in a direction further away from each other. The snap-fit groove slidably snaps into the snap-fit rail. Optionally, the snap-fit groove portion 4231 is a snap-fit rib; the snap-fit rail portion 2121 is a snap-fit rib.
[0092] As described above, the sliding engagement of the first limiting part 212 and the second limiting part 423 enables the detachable connection of the light-emitting end 422 to the handle box body 21, which is simple, convenient and quick to operate; furthermore, the structure of the engagement groove and engagement rail is simple, which facilitates production, processing and assembly and saves manufacturing costs.
[0093] Please see Figure 25 In some embodiments of this application, the handle box body 21 has a third limiting portion 2111, and the light-emitting end 422 has a fourth limiting portion 424. One of the third limiting portion 2111 and the fourth limiting portion 424 is a limiting opening, and the other is a limiting block. The plane where the limiting opening is located is parallel to the sliding direction of the second limiting portion 423 relative to the first limiting portion 212. The limiting opening and the limiting block can be relatively close to each other to complete the limiting engagement, and can be relatively far apart to release the limiting engagement. Optionally, the handle box body 21 is provided with a plate-like structure, and the third limiting portion 2111 is a limiting opening formed in the plate-like structure; the third limiting portion 2111 is located between two snap-fit rail portions 2121. The fourth limiting portion 424 is a limiting block provided on the side of the light-emitting end 422; the fourth limiting portion 424 is located between two snap-fit groove portions 4231. Furthermore, when the second limiting part 423 slides relative to the first limiting part 212, the third limiting part 2111 can elastically deform, moving the third limiting part 2111 away from the fourth limiting part 424 (i.e., the limiting opening away from the limiting block) to avoid obstructing the movement of the fourth limiting part 424 (i.e., the limiting block). When the sliding connection between the second limiting part 423 and the first limiting part 212 is completed, the third limiting part 2111 (i.e., the limiting opening) returns to its original shape, completing the limiting engagement between the third limiting part 2111 and the fourth limiting part 424 (i.e., the insertion limiting engagement between the limiting opening and the limiting block). The shape of the limiting opening and the limiting block is not limited. The limiting block can be any regular shape such as a cuboid or cylinder, or any irregular shape, as long as the limiting block can be inserted into the limiting opening for limiting engagement.
[0094] As described above, through the limiting cooperation of the first limiting part 212 and the second limiting part 423, as well as the limiting cooperation of the third limiting part 2111 and the fourth limiting part 424, the light-emitting end 422 can be detachably connected to the handle box body 21, and the light-emitting end 422 can be limited and locked in three directions to ensure the reliable fixing effect of the light-emitting end 422 and prevent misalignment and shaking during use.
[0095] In some embodiments, the first connecting part 211 is a first connecting post, and the first connecting post has a first mounting hole; the second connecting part 412 is a mounting plate with a downward extending length relative to the cover 41, and the mounting plate has a second mounting hole.
[0096] It should be noted that the first connecting pillar can be a boss pillar; 5-10 boss pillars are spaced apart along the length of the door; correspondingly, 5-10 mounting plates are spaced apart along the length of the door. Optionally, 8 boss pillars are spaced apart; 8 mounting plates are spaced apart, and each mounting plate has a second mounting hole. The first fastener 5 is a bolt or screw with external threads.
[0097] As shown above, the structural forms of the first connecting part 211 and the second connecting part 412 are defined, and the structure is simple and easy to manufacture and assemble.
[0098] Please see Figure 6 , Figures 21-23 In some embodiments, the handle box body 21 has a first positioning portion 213. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 8 , Figures 21-23 The receiving part 411 is connected to the second positioning part 413, which can be positioned and connected to the first positioning part 213 along the thickness direction of the door.
[0099] As described above, the positioning cooperation between the first positioning part 213 and the second positioning part 413 can ensure the accurate positioning of the cover 41 on the handle box body 21, thus ensuring the smooth completion of the assembly.
[0100] It should be noted that the first positioning part 213 is a first positioning pin; the second positioning part 413 is a mounting plate with a downward extension length relative to the cover 41, and the mounting plate has a first positioning hole. Furthermore, the mounting plate forming the second positioning part 413 can be a different mounting plate from the mounting plate forming the second connecting part 412, or it can be the same mounting plate; when the second positioning part 413 and the second connecting part 412 belong to the same mounting plate, the mounting plate has both the first positioning hole and the second mounting hole.
[0101] Furthermore, the second positioning part 413 has two parts, namely a main positioning hole and a secondary positioning hole for the housing; correspondingly, the first positioning part 213 has two parts, namely a main positioning pin and a secondary positioning pin for the housing. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 22 The main locating pin of the cover engages with the main locating hole of the cover to restrict displacement in the height and length directions of the door. The locating clearance in both directions is 0.08mm-0.12mm; preferably, the locating clearance is 0.1mm. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 23 The cover sub-positioning pin and the cover sub-positioning hole cooperate to restrict the displacement in the height direction of the door. The positioning gap in the height direction of the door is 0.08mm-0.12mm; preferably, the positioning gap is 0.1mm; the door is opened in the length direction, and the gap in the length direction of the door is 1.2mm-1.6mm, optionally, the gap is 1.4mm.
[0102] As shown above, the main positioning and secondary positioning of the housing cooperate. The gap in the secondary positioning of the housing can compensate for manufacturing and assembly errors, reduce the dependence on the absolute accuracy of the positioning holes, and reduce the positioning difficulty.
[0103] Please see Figure 1 , Figures 4-5 In some embodiments of this application, the armrest assembly 3 forms a clearance cavity 36 to avoid the handle box. The armrest assembly 3 includes an armrest frame 31 and a first bracket 32 and a second bracket 33 located on both sides of the clearance cavity 36 along the length of the door. The first bracket 32 and the second bracket 33 are both fixedly connected between the armrest frame 31 and the handle box body 21.
[0104] The handrail bracket of this application is no longer set as an integral structure, but is set as a separate first bracket 32 and second bracket 33, which can make the processing mold smaller, which helps to reduce mold cost and improve production yield. The first bracket 32 and the second bracket 33 are assembled independently, which not only facilitates operation, but also allows for individual replacement of damaged parts, avoiding overall material waste.
