If the mating surfaces of the rear bumper and the rear outer panel fit well, there will be interference between them. Especially on twisting roads, the rear bumper and the rear outer panel are prone to scratches, increasing the risk of paint scratches and rust. Utility Model Content

[0035] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 6 This describes the shock-absorbing structure and carrier of the back door according to an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0036] According to an embodiment of this utility model, in one aspect, a shock-absorbing structure for a tailgate is provided. The tailgate 3 is located on the rear outer panel 5 of the vehicle, and a rear bumper 4 is provided on the outer side of the rear outer panel 5. Specifically, as... Figure 1 As shown, the shock absorption structure of the tailgate includes a first buffer block 1 and a second buffer block 2. Figure 2 As shown, the first buffer block 1 is disposed on the inner panel 301 of the rear door 3, as... Figure 3 As shown, the first buffer block 1 abuts against the first side 401 of the rear bumper 4. Figure 1 As shown, the second buffer block 2 is disposed on the rear outer panel 5, as... Figure 3 As shown, the second buffer block 2 abuts against the second side 402 of the rear bumper 4.
[0037] This configuration adds a second buffer block 2, which contacts the rear bumper 4. By utilizing the elastic deformation of the second buffer block 2, the matching precision between the rear bumper 4 and the rear outer panel 5 can be reduced, avoiding abnormal noise caused by loose fit and interference caused by overly tight fit. It also prevents the rear bumper 4 and the rear outer panel 5 from directly contacting each other and rubbing against each other, reducing the risk of paint scratches and rust, and improving the reliability of installation. At the same time, by utilizing the deformation energy absorption characteristics of the second buffer block 2, the shock absorption effect of the tailgate 3 can be further improved, the ear-pressing noise can be reduced, and the opening and closing quality of the tailgate 3 can be improved.
[0038] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, a buffer block bracket 6 is provided on the side of the rear outer panel 5 facing the rear bumper 4. Optionally, the buffer block bracket 6 is welded to the rear outer panel 5 to ensure the stability of the connection. The second buffer block 2 is disposed on the buffer block bracket 6, and the second buffer block 2 abuts against the second side 402 of the rear bumper 4. In this way, by providing the buffer block bracket 6, the installation of the second buffer block 2 is facilitated, and the processing and forming process of the rear outer panel 5 is simplified, thus achieving the dual advantages of convenient installation and efficient processing.
[0039] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second buffer block 2 has a snap-fit part 201 at one end facing the buffer block support 6, such as... Figure 4As shown, the buffer block bracket 6 is provided with a first mounting hole 601 that matches the snap-fit part 201, and the snap-fit part 201 snaps into the first mounting hole 601. With this configuration, the snap-fit structure does not require bolts, screws or other fasteners, and can be fixed by mechanical snap-fit, which greatly shortens the assembly time, reduces the labor cost of the production line, improves the assembly efficiency and maintenance convenience, and the snap-fit structure occupies little space, which is conducive to the compact layout of the second buffer block 2 and the buffer block bracket 6, and is suitable for narrow installation environments.
[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the outer wall of the snap-fit part 201 is provided with an annular snap-fit groove 202, such as Figure 3 As shown, the snap-fit part 201 snaps into the first mounting hole 601, and the buffer block bracket 6 is embedded in the annular slot 202. This arrangement, with the annular slot 202 and the buffer block bracket 6 engaging, forms a dual constraint in both the axial and radial directions, effectively resisting displacement or dislodgement of the second buffer block 2 due to vibration, ensuring the second buffer block 2 is securely mounted on the buffer block bracket 6, and improving installation reliability. Optionally, the snap-fit part 201 adopts an arc-shaped design, which facilitates smooth insertion of the snap-fit part 201 into the first mounting hole 601.
[0041] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the second buffer block 2 has a protrusion 203 at one end facing the rear bumper 4, and the protrusion 203 abuts against the second side 402 of the rear bumper 4. This design, by including the protrusion 203, allows for a certain amount of deformation allowance for the rear bumper 4, effectively avoiding installation and matching problems caused by deformation of the rear bumper 4 due to temperature changes, thus ensuring that it is less prone to abnormal noise. It should be noted that the protrusion height of the protrusion 203 can be specifically designed according to the amount of deformation interference of the rear bumper 4. Optionally, the protrusion 203 is an arc-shaped protrusion, located at the center of the second buffer block 2, to ensure a smooth transition when it contacts the rear bumper 4.
[0042] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second buffer block 2 has a blind hole 204 at one end facing the rear bumper 4. This design, with the blind hole 204, facilitates the compression deformation of the second buffer block 2 under stress, thereby meeting the matching installation requirements of the second buffer block 2 and the rear bumper 4, ensuring they are matched with each other according to a certain interference amount. Optionally, the blind hole 204 is located at the center of the second buffer block 2, which helps to ensure balanced circumferential stress and consistent deformation of the second buffer block 2, effectively improving its stability and adaptability.
[0043] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the outer wall of the second buffer block 2 is provided with multiple annular flanges 205, which are spaced apart along the axial direction of the second buffer block 2. It should be noted that the number of annular flanges 205 can be specifically designed according to actual design requirements. Furthermore, as... Figure 3 As shown, the thickness of the multiple annular flanges 205 gradually increases along the direction away from the rear bumper 4. Specifically, the multiple annular flanges 205 can be designed to gradually increase in thickness proportionally or unequally along the direction away from the rear bumper 4.
[0044] With this design, the multiple annular flanges 205 adopt unequal thicknesses to achieve a non-uniform deformation effect. On the side of the second buffer block 2 facing the rear bumper 4, its thickness is relatively small, making it easier to deform. This not only improves the buffering and shock absorption effect but also better adapts to the deformation interference of the rear bumper 4. On the side of the second buffer block 2 away from the rear bumper 4, its thickness is relatively large, making it less prone to deformation. This ensures the structural stability of the second buffer block 2 and achieves a stable and reliable connection between the second buffer block 2 and the buffer block bracket 6.
[0045] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the distance between two adjacent annular flanges 205 gradually increases along the direction away from the rear bumper 4. It can be understood that the distance between two adjacent annular flanges 205 can be designed to gradually increase proportionally or unequally. It should be noted that the variation in the distance between the annular flanges 205 can be specifically designed according to different actual vehicle matching effects.
[0046] With this design, the multiple annular flanges 205 are spaced at unequal intervals to achieve a non-uniform deformation effect. On the side of the second buffer block 2 facing the rear bumper 4, the spacing is relatively small, which is conducive to the annular flanges 205 pressing against each other layer by layer to generate deformation when under force. This can not only improve the buffering and shock absorption performance, but also better adapt to the deformation interference of the rear bumper 4. On the side of the second buffer block 2 away from the rear bumper 4, the spacing is relatively large, which makes it less prone to deformation. This ensures the structural performance of the second buffer block 2 and ensures that the connection between the second buffer block 2 and the buffer block bracket 6 is more stable and reliable.
[0047] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, the stiffness of the second buffer block 2 is less than that of the first buffer block 1. With this configuration, the first buffer block 1 has relatively high stiffness, providing a greater reaction force under road conditions such as bumpy surfaces, effectively suppressing the outward movement of the tailgate 3. The second buffer block 2, with relatively low stiffness, is more prone to deformation, which helps to achieve buffering and energy absorption when the tailgate 3 has a tendency to move inward, thus improving the closing quality of the tailgate 3. It should be noted that the outward movement tendency refers to the tendency to move in the direction of opening the tailgate 3, while the inward movement tendency refers to the tendency to move in the direction of closing the tailgate 3.
[0048] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the outer diameter d of the second buffer block 2 is smaller than the outer diameter D of the first buffer block 1. With this configuration, the second buffer block 2 is more prone to deformation than the first buffer block 1, meeting the usage requirements in different scenarios, and also reducing the design size of the buffer block bracket 6, saving installation space.
[0049] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the rear bumper 4 has a recess 403 that matches the first buffer block 1, and the first buffer block 1 abuts against the recess 403. This limits the first buffer block 1, ensuring that it is always stably in the preset working position, which helps improve the closing quality of the tailgate 3, and enables rapid positioning, thus improving assembly efficiency.
[0050] Optionally, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first buffer block 1 is provided with a spiral groove 101, such as Figure 4 As shown, the inner panel 301 of the tailgate 3 is provided with a second mounting hole 3011 that matches the first buffer block 1. The first buffer block 1 passes through the second mounting hole 3011 and is engaged with the inner panel 301 by a spiral groove 101. It should be noted that, as... Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the contact surface on the inner panel 301 that abuts against the spiral groove 101 is a spiral surface 3012. This spiral surface 3012 can be designed according to the specific structure of the spiral groove 101 so that when the first buffer block 1 is fixed on the inner panel 301, the end face of the first buffer block 1 remains flush with the surface of the rear bumper 4, ensuring that the two fit tightly together. With this setting, by rotating the first buffer block 1, the height of the first buffer block 1 extending out of the inner panel 301 can be adjusted, thereby achieving different ballast loads on the second buffer block 2. In this way, the opening and closing quality of the tailgate 3 can be adjusted to the optimal state according to different actual vehicle matching effects.
[0051] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect provides a vehicle including a shock-absorbing structure for the tailgate as described in the various embodiments above. Optionally, the vehicle is a vehicle, a low-altitude aircraft, etc. The derivation process of this beneficial effect is roughly similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effect of the shock-absorbing structure for the tailgate described above, and therefore will not be repeated here.
[0052] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
