[0002] To improve the in-car environment, negative ion generators are commonly used in mid-to-high-end models. However, a drawback is that when negative ions accumulate on the air vents, they may cause static electricity and electric shocks. To solve this problem, the electroplated trim strip of the air vents is usually connected to the ground wire.

[0003] In the relevant technology, the electroplated trim strip of the air outlet is first connected to the first connector at one end of the wire, then the second connector at the other end of the wire is passed through the wiring harness hole on the dashboard, then the second connector is connected to the ground wire, and finally the central air outlet is assembled to the dashboard.

[0004] However, due to the small size of the wiring harness hole on the dashboard, the second connector has a low first-pass rate. In addition, after the second connector passes through the wiring harness hole on the dashboard, the assembly personnel need to pull the wire out from the back of the dashboard and connect it to the ground wire, which is difficult for personnel to operate and takes a long time.

[0028] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.

[0029] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0031] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment of the utility model provides a grounding structure, including a first conductive element 40 and a second conductive element 50. The first conductive element 40 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​structure 41, and the second conductive element 50 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​structure 51. The second snap-fit ​​structure 51 can snap into the first snap-fit ​​structure 41. One of the first conductive element 40 and the second conductive element 50 is connected to a ground wire. In application, the first conductive element 40 can be connected to the instrument panel 10, and the second conductive element 50 can be connected to the air outlet 20. During the process of installing the air outlet 20 into the mounting hole 11 of the instrument panel 10, the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 snaps into the first snap-fit ​​structure 41, thus creating a circuit between the first conductive element 40 and the second conductive element 50. This connects the air outlet 20 to the ground wire, guiding static electricity on the air outlet 20 to the ground and preventing static electricity on the hands. By adopting this grounding structure, the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 can be snapped together during the installation of the air outlet component 20 into the mounting hole 11 of the instrument panel 10, which reduces the assembly difficulty, shortens the assembly time, and improves the assembly efficiency.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 is a snap-fit ​​protrusion, and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 is a snap-fit ​​hole, with the snap-fit ​​protrusion capable of engaging with the snap-fit ​​hole. In other embodiments, the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 may be a snap-fit ​​hole, and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 may be a snap-fit ​​protrusion. In other embodiments, the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 may also be magnetic elements with opposite polarities to form a magnetic snap-fit.

[0034] At least one of the first conductive element 40 and the second conductive element 50 is a metal spring. The metal spring is elastic, allowing it to deform elastically during the insertion of the air outlet 20 into the mounting hole 11 of the instrument panel 10, thereby facilitating the engagement of the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51. In this embodiment, the first conductive element 40 is a metal spring. In other embodiments, the second conductive element 50 may also be a metal spring.

[0035] In this embodiment, the first conductive member 40 has a bent portion that protrudes toward the second conductive member 50. The first snap-fit ​​structure 41 is disposed on the bent portion, thereby facilitating the snap-fit ​​of the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 during the process of inserting the air outlet member 20 into the mounting hole 11 of the instrument panel 10.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment of the invention also provides an assembly component, including a first assembly part, a second assembly part, and a grounding structure as described above. A first conductive element 40 is disposed on the first assembly part, and a second conductive element 50 is disposed on the second assembly part. By adopting the above-described grounding structure, the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 can be snapped together during the assembly process of the first assembly part and the second assembly part, thereby achieving grounding of the first assembly part and / or the second assembly part. This simplifies assembly, shortens assembly time, and increases assembly efficiency.

[0037] In this embodiment, the first assembly is a dashboard 10, and the second assembly is an air outlet 20. The dashboard 10 has a mounting hole 11, and the air outlet 20 is installed in the mounting hole 11. When the air outlet 20 is inserted into the mounting hole 11 of the dashboard 10, the second conductive element 50 is inserted into the mounting hole 11 along with the air outlet 20. During insertion, the first conductive element 40 and / or the second conductive element 50 deform until the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 and the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 form a snap-fit. At this point, the first conductive element 40 and the second conductive element 50 form a conductive circuit, thereby connecting the air outlet 20 to the ground wire to guide static electricity on the air outlet 20 to the ground. In other embodiments, the first and second assemblies can also be other electrical decorative parts capable of generating static electricity.

[0038] The air outlet component 20 includes an air outlet and a decorative strip 21 distributed around the air outlet. The decorative strip 21 is an electroplated strip, and negative ions will accumulate on the electroplated strip, generating static electricity. Therefore, in this embodiment, the second conductive component 50 is connected to the decorative strip 21. When the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 of the first conductive component 40 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 of the second conductive component 50 are snapped together, the static electricity of the decorative strip 21 can be guided to the ground, preventing static electricity from accumulating on the decorative strip 21.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first conductive element 40 is disposed within the mounting hole 11 and is connected to the ground wire. The first conductive element 40 can be connected to the ground wire via a wire 60 or directly to the ground wire. With this arrangement, the wiring process can be avoided when assembling the air outlet 20 into the mounting hole 11 of the instrument panel 10, further reducing the assembly difficulty.

[0040] In this embodiment, a conductive element mounting structure 30 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11, and the first conductive element 40 is connected to the conductive element mounting structure 30. The conductive element mounting structure 30 includes a mounting base 31 and a welding post 32 disposed on the mounting base 31. The first conductive element 40 is provided with a positioning part, which is a positioning hole or a positioning groove. The welding post 32 is positioned in the positioning part, and the first conductive element 40 is welded to the welding post 32. Alternatively, the conductive element mounting structure 30 may also include a mounting base 31 and a fastening hole disposed on the mounting base 31. The first conductive element 40 is provided with a connecting hole, and a fastener passes through the connecting hole and is fastened to the fastening hole to connect the first conductive element 40 to the mounting base 31. Alternatively, the conductive element mounting structure 30 may also include a mounting base 31 and a snap-fit ​​structure disposed on the mounting base 31, and the first conductive element 40 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​structure.

[0041] Furthermore, the assembly assembly provided in this embodiment also includes a guide structure, which guides the engagement of the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51. Optionally, a guide structure is provided on one of the snap-fit ​​holes in the first conductive member 40 and the second conductive member 50, allowing the snap-fit ​​protrusion to move along the guide structure and engage with the snap-fit ​​hole. In this embodiment, a guide structure is provided on the second conductive member 50, allowing the snap-fit ​​protrusion to move along the guide track and engage with the snap-fit ​​hole. Optionally, the guide structure can be a guide rail or a guide groove. Alternatively, a guide structure is provided between the inner wall of the mounting hole 11 and the outer wall of the air outlet member 20 to correct the position of the air outlet member 20 when it is installed into the mounting hole 11, thereby enabling the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 to engage.

[0042] Furthermore, the assembly assembly provided in this embodiment also includes an anti-loosening structure, which is used to prevent the first snap-fit ​​structure 41 and the second snap-fit ​​structure 51 from loosening after they are snapped together. In this embodiment, the anti-loosening structure includes a barb, which is disposed on the snap protrusion. When the snap protrusion is engaged in the snap hole, the barb can abut against the second conductive element 50, thereby preventing the snap protrusion from coming out of the snap hole.

[0043] This utility model embodiment also provides a vehicle including the above-described assembly components.

[0044] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
