Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to vehicle door systems, specifically to an integrated door interior panel module, a door interior panel assembly, a door assembly, and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In modern automotive design, the integration and modularization of door interior panels are crucial for improving manufacturing efficiency and enhancing user experience. Traditional door designs typically assemble the inner sheet metal and the interior trim panel as two independent modules, resulting in a double-layered structure. The inner sheet metal requires separate integration of components such as window regulator rails, waterproof covers, and speakers. The lower frame of the interior trim panel needs to accommodate the side impact energy-absorbing block integration area, upper decorative panel, inlays, armrests, map pocket covers, and other coverings. This leads to a large number of parts, complex assembly processes, significant cumulative tolerances, and a heavy and costly door assembly, which is detrimental to energy conservation and emission reduction. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated door interior panel module, a door interior panel assembly, a door assembly, and a vehicle, which can reduce the number of parts that need to be assembled, thereby reducing the total weight of the door interior panel assembly, which is beneficial to the lightweighting of the whole vehicle, and can simplify the assembly process and prevent cumulative tolerances of various parts.

[0004] An integrated door interior panel module of this utility model includes a composite material interior panel body. The side of the composite material interior panel body facing outwards integrates a hip side impact energy absorption block integration area, a window regulator guide rail assembly, and an audio installation part.

[0005] Furthermore, the hip-side impact-absorbing block integration area and the speaker mounting portion are located on different sides of the glass lifter guide rail assembly in the first direction.

[0006] Furthermore, the glass lifter guide rail assembly includes a first guide rail and a second guide rail spaced apart along a first direction, and both the first guide rail and the second guide rail are embedded with metal reinforcing inserts.

[0007] Furthermore, the composite material interior panel body has a waterproof outer edge at its four edges.

[0008] Furthermore, the composite material interior panel body integrates a detachable component installation interface.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, an integrated door interior panel module in this embodiment includes a composite material interior panel body 1. The side of the composite material interior panel body 1 facing outwards from the vehicle integrates a hip side impact energy absorption block integration area 2, a window regulator guide rail assembly 3, and an audio installation part 4.

[0021] The main body 1 of the composite interior panel is injection molded from engineering plastics such as PP or ABS composite materials. It integrates the hip side impact energy absorption block integration area 2, the window regulator guide rail assembly 3, and the audio installation part 4. This can reduce the number of parts that need to be assembled, thereby reducing the total weight of the door interior panel assembly, which is conducive to the lightweighting of the whole vehicle. It can also simplify the assembly process and prevent cumulative tolerances of various parts.

[0022] The hip-side impact energy-absorbing block integrated area 2 is equipped with a buffer energy-absorbing structure to improve collision safety during a collision. The integrated window regulator guide rail assembly 3 can be used to install the glass slider of the window regulator. Compared with the traditional structure where the guide rail is connected to the sheet metal with bolts, this application eliminates the process of assembling the guide rail. The audio installation section 4 has a structure reserved for connecting to the audio system.

[0023] In this embodiment, the hip-side impact-absorbing block integration area 2 and the speaker mounting part 4 are located on different sides of the window regulator guide rail assembly 3 in a first direction. The first direction can be the front-rear direction of the vehicle when the door is closed.

[0024] In this embodiment, the window regulator guide rail assembly 3 includes a first guide rail 301 and a second guide rail 302 spaced apart along a first direction, and both the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 are embedded with metal reinforcing inserts. In this embodiment, the periphery of the composite material interior panel body 1 is provided with a waterproof outer edge 5.

[0025] The metal reinforcing inserts embedded at the positions of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 serve two purposes. First, they ensure the stability of the glass slider, preventing deformation and failure of the first and second guide rails 301 and 302 due to slider movement. Second, they increase the overall strength of the composite interior panel body 1, reducing its support strength requirements for the door inner panel sheet metal assembly. Specifically, to further reduce the overall weight of the door inner panel assembly and facilitate vehicle lightweighting, the door inner panel sheet metal assembly in this embodiment has a through-mounting space 11. The integrated door interior panel module seals this space 11. The integrated door interior panel module is connected to the door inner panel sheet metal assembly via the connecting waterproof outer edge 5 at its four edges. Since there is no sheet metal support in the middle, the overall strength of the composite interior panel body 1 can be increased through the metal reinforcing inserts.

[0026] The waterproof outer edge 5 is tightly fitted to the inner panel sheet metal assembly of the door, which can have good sealing performance and realize the function of the waterproof cover plate on the traditional inner panel assembly. It can prevent external rainwater from entering the car from the connection between the inner panel sheet metal assembly of the door and the integrated door interior panel module.

[0027] In this embodiment, the composite material interior panel body 1 integrates a detachable component installation interface 6. The detachable component installation interface 6 has pre-installed standardized clips or quick-release structures for assembling decorative panels, inlay panels, armrests, map pocket covers, and other covering components. Manufacturers can provide various covering components that can connect to the standardized clips or quick-release structures of the detachable component installation interface 6. The types of covering components can include decorative panels, inlay panels, armrests, map pocket covers, etc. The colors and shapes of the covering components can also be designed with various options, allowing users to manually disassemble and replace them for personalized DIY customization.

[0028] In this embodiment, the side of the composite interior panel body 1 facing outwards is integrated with reinforcing ribs 7 and / or reinforcing grooves 8. The reinforcing ribs 7 and / or reinforcing grooves 8 increase the strength of the composite interior panel body 1.

[0029] The side of the composite interior panel body 1 facing the interior of the vehicle is the decorative exterior surface, primarily providing aesthetic performance. Therefore, the hip side impact energy absorption block integration area 2, the window regulator guide rail assembly 3, the audio mounting part 4, the reinforcing rib 7, and the reinforcing groove 8 are all integrated on the side of the composite interior panel body 1 facing the exterior of the vehicle. The side of the detachable part mounting interface 6 facing the interior of the vehicle can also be covered by decorative panels, inlays, armrests, map pocket covers, etc., so it is not limited to whether it is integrated on the interior side or the exterior side.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a door inner panel assembly in this embodiment includes a door inner panel sheet metal assembly and an integrated door interior panel module as described above. The door inner panel sheet metal assembly is provided with a through mounting space 11, and the four edges of the composite material interior panel body 1 are connected to the four edges of the mounting space 11.

[0031] The through direction of the installation space 11 is along the second direction, which is the left and right direction of the vehicle when the door is closed, and also the inside and outside direction of the vehicle.

[0032] The inner door panel sheet metal assembly has a through installation space 11. The integrated door interior panel module seals the installation space 11. The integrated door interior panel module is connected to the inner door panel sheet metal assembly through the connecting waterproof outer edge 5 set at the four edges. There is no sheet metal support in the middle, so the weight of the inner door panel sheet metal assembly can be greatly reduced, thereby reducing the total weight of the inner door panel assembly and contributing to the lightweighting of the whole vehicle.

[0033] In this embodiment, the inner door panel sheet metal assembly includes a window frame sheet metal part 10 and a U-shaped lower door frame sheet metal part 9. The U-shaped lower door frame sheet metal part 9 includes a first longitudinal sheet metal part 901, a transverse sheet metal part 902, and a second longitudinal sheet metal part 903. The transverse sheet metal part 902 is connected to the lower parts of the first longitudinal sheet metal part 901 and the second longitudinal sheet metal part 903 on different sides in a first direction, respectively. The lower part of the window frame sheet metal part 10 is connected to the upper parts of the first longitudinal sheet metal part 901 and the second longitudinal sheet metal part 903.

[0034] The window frame sheet metal part 10 and the U-shaped lower door frame sheet metal part 9 are manufactured separately and then welded together. The separate manufacturing of the two sheet metal parts can reduce the manufacturing difficulty of sheet metal stamping.

[0035] The integrated door interior panel module is detachably connected to the lower part of the window frame sheet metal part 10 via a connecting waterproof outer edge 5 located at its upper edge. The integrated door interior panel module is also detachably connected to three sheet metal parts of the U-shaped lower door frame sheet metal part 9 via connecting waterproof outer edges 5 located at its left, right, and lower edges. Detachable connection means that the connection can be made using threaded fasteners.

[0036] One type of door assembly in this embodiment includes the door inner panel assembly as described above.

[0037] One embodiment of the vehicle includes the door assembly described above.

[0038] The vehicles can be, but are not limited to, pure electric vehicles (PEV / BEV), hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), range-extended electric vehicles (REEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), new energy vehicles, and gasoline vehicles.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
