[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides an upper decorative panel speaker cover assembly structure.

[0024] The upper trim panel speaker grille assembly structure includes an upper trim panel 100, a speaker grille 200, and a covering 300.

[0025] The upper trim panel 100 has a mounting groove 110 in the middle. The mounting groove 110 is approximately quadrilateral, and the four corners of the mounting groove 110 are rounded. The edge of the mounting groove 110 is divided into two long side segments 111, four corner segments 112, and two short side segments 113. The two long side segments 111 are arranged opposite each other, and the two short side segments 113 are arranged opposite each other. A corner segment 112 is provided between the long side segments 111 and the short side segments 113. The long side segments 111 and the short side segments 113 are approximately straight lines, and the corner segment 112 is an arc.

[0026] The bottom wall of the assembly groove 110 is provided with eight snap holes 120 and two positioning holes 130. The eight snap holes 120 and two positioning holes 130 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the assembly groove 110. Each snap hole 120 is vertically connected and each positioning hole 130 is vertically connected.

[0027] Two positioning holes 130 are respectively provided on the sides of the two short side segments 113, and two buckle holes 120 are provided on the side of each long side segment 111. The two buckle holes 120 are distributed at intervals along the extension direction of the long side segment 111, and one buckle hole 120 is provided on the side of each corner segment 112.

[0028] In this embodiment, each buckle hole 120 is a rectangular hole, and a planar first support surface 121 is provided around the periphery of each buckle hole 120. Each positioning hole 130 is a circular hole, and a planar second support surface 131 is provided around the periphery of each positioning hole 130.

[0029] The top surface of the upper trim panel 100 is provided with an upward protrusion 140, which surrounds the circumference of the mounting groove 110. The side wall of the protrusion 140 facing away from the mounting groove 110 and the top surface of the upper trim panel 100 are provided with a rounded corner transition.

[0030] The covering 300 significantly enhances the appearance of the upper trim panel 100 by carefully covering the top surface of the upper trim panel 100 with leather or fabric of different textures and colors.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the covering 300 has a clearance hole 310 at the position corresponding to the mounting groove 110. The shape of the clearance hole 310 matches the shape of the mounting groove 110. The covering 300 covers the top surface of the upper trim panel 100 and covers the protrusion 140. The covering 300 has a flange 320 extending towards the mounting groove 110 at the edge of the clearance hole 310. The flange 320 folds down from the protrusion 140 and covers the inner side wall of the mounting groove 110. The flange 320 has multiple notches. The multiple notches are distributed circumferentially along the mounting groove 110. Each corner segment 112 has a notch to prevent the flange near the corner segment 112 from tearing due to downward folding.

[0032] Reference Figure 5 As shown, the shape of the speaker grille 200 matches the shape of the mounting groove 110. The outer edge of the speaker grille 200 is divided into two long side walls, four corner side walls and two short side walls. The two long side walls are arranged opposite each other, the two short side walls are arranged opposite each other, and corner side walls are provided between the long side walls and the short side walls.

[0033] The bottom of the speaker grille 200 is provided with eight clips 210 and two positioning posts 220. The eight clips 210 and two positioning posts 220 are distributed circumferentially around the speaker grille 200. The two positioning posts 220 are respectively located on the sides of the two short side walls. Two clips 210 are located on the side of each long side wall, and the two clips 210 are distributed circumferentially along the extension direction of the long side wall. One clip 210 is located on the side of each corner side wall. Therefore, the positions of the eight clips 210 on the bottom of the speaker grille 200 correspond one-to-one with the positions of the eight buckle holes 120 on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, and the positions of the two positioning posts 220 on the bottom of the speaker grille 200 correspond one-to-one with the positions of the two positioning holes 130 on the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110.

[0034] The speaker grille 200, eight clips 210 and two positioning posts 220 are integrally injection molded.

[0035] The shape of the buckle 210 matches the shape of the buckle hole 120. Each buckle 210 is connected to the support block 211 and the elastic fastener. The bottom surface of the support block 211 is flat. The bottom surface of the support block 211 is connected to the elastic fastener. The support block 211 protrudes outward from the outside of the elastic fastener. The bottom surface of the support block 211 forms a step around the elastic fastener. The elastic fastener includes an insert and a spring. The insert is connected to the bottom of the support block 211. The bottom of the insert has two oppositely arranged springs. The ends of the springs extend upward to the outside of the insert. There is an outwardly protruding part between the top and bottom of the spring. External force squeezes the outwardly protruding part so that the spring can be offset towards the insert. The elasticity of the spring makes it tend to return to its original position.

[0036] The shape of the positioning post 220 matches the shape of the positioning hole 130. The outer wall of the positioning post 220 is provided with an outwardly protruding step 221, and the bottom surface of the step 221 is flat.

[0037] The bottom of the speaker grille 200 is provided with multiple crisscrossing reinforcing ribs 230. The reinforcing ribs 230 help to improve the structural strength of the speaker grille 200 and reduce the deformation and warping of the speaker grille 200 caused by stress release.

[0038] Align the speaker grille 200 with the mounting groove 110 of the trim panel 100, fasten the eight clips 210 to the eight buckles 120 one by one, and insert the two positioning pins 220 into the two positioning holes 130 respectively.

[0039] When the buckle 210 is inserted into the buckle hole 120, the inner wall of the buckle hole 120 presses the outward protrusions of the two spring pieces, causing the two spring pieces to shift towards the insertion block, thereby allowing the buckle 210 to be inserted into the buckle hole 120. Then the buckle moves downward along the buckle hole 120. After the outward protrusion passes through the buckle hole 120 and falls below the upper trim panel 100, the elasticity of the spring pieces causes it to return to its original position. The outward protrusion shifts outward and returns to its original position, so that the top of the outward protrusion abuts against the bottom surface of the upper trim panel 100. The bottom surface of the support block 211 abuts against the first support surface 121 around the buckle hole 120. Thus, the degree of freedom of the buckle 210 in the vertical direction is restricted. The outer wall of the insertion block and the outer wall of the spring pieces abut against the outer wall of the buckle hole 120, keeping the position of the buckle 210 fixed, thereby restricting the degree of freedom of the buckle 210 in the horizontal direction.

[0040] When the positioning pin 220 is inserted into the positioning hole 130, the outer side wall of the positioning pin 220 abuts against the inner side wall of the positioning hole 130, and the bottom surface of the step 221 on the outer side wall of the positioning pin 220 abuts against the second support surface 131 around the positioning hole 130.

[0041] After the speaker cover 200 is assembled into the mounting groove 110 of the upper trim panel 100, there is a space between the bottom wall of the speaker cover 200 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, and a gap 10 is left between the outer side wall of the speaker cover 200 and the inner side wall of the mounting groove 110. The flange 320 of the covering 300 is located in the gap 10, and the outer side wall of the speaker cover 200 and the inner side wall of the mounting groove 110 press the flange 320 of the covering 300.

[0042] The gap 10 is divided into a long side gap 11, a corner gap 12 and a short side gap 13 along the edge of the assembly groove 110. The width of the corner gap 12 is smaller than the width of the short side gap 13, and the width of the short side gap 13 is smaller than the width of the long side gap 11.

[0043] The buckle 210 abuts against the first support surface 121 around the buckle hole 120 through the bottom surface of the support block 211, which helps to keep the vertical height of each buckle 210 connection position of the speaker cover 200 fixed, and avoids the corner position and long side position of the speaker cover 200 from deforming and lifting during long-term use after assembly, which would cause the gap to increase.

[0044] There is space between the bottom surface of the speaker cover 200 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 to reduce the contact area between the speaker cover 200 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110, and to prevent the speaker cover 200 from warping due to manufacturing errors of the speaker cover 200 or the mounting groove 110.

[0045] The speaker cover 200 has a positioning post 220 on its short side that engages with the positioning hole 130 on the short side section 113 of the mounting groove 110. This helps to provide continuous tension in the length direction of the speaker cover 200. The tension helps to reduce the shrinkage of the speaker cover 200 in the length direction due to stress release.

[0046] The positioning post 220 is provided with a step 221 that abuts against the second support surface 131 of the positioning hole 130, ensuring that the height of the two short sides of the speaker cover 200 will not shrink or sink due to stress release.

[0047] The outer wall of the speaker grille 200 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 110 are used to press the flange 320 of the cover 300 to prevent the flange 320 of the cover 300 from being exposed due to the pulling of the cover 300.

[0048] Because the corner of the speaker grille 200 deforms and warps the most due to stress release, the corner gap 12 is the narrowest. Even if the corner of the speaker grille 200 deforms and warps, the gap at the corner is visually not much different from the other gaps. Since both sides of the short side gap 13 are corner gaps 12, the width of the short side gap 13 is between the corner gap 12 and the long side gap 11.

[0049] Each long side segment 111 of the mounting groove 110 is relatively long. The two clips 210 at the long side position of the speaker mask 200 are engaged in the two clip holes 120 of the long side segment 111. The clips at the four corner positions of the speaker mask 200 are engaged in the clip holes 120 of the four corner segments 112. This securely attaches the corner parts and long side parts of the speaker mask 200, which are prone to deformation and warping, to the bottom wall of the mounting groove 110 of the trim panel 100, thereby solving the problem of excessive assembly gap caused by the deformation of the speaker mask 200 due to stress release.

[0050] This utility model also provides a center console top plate, including the upper trim panel speaker cover assembly structure described in the above embodiments.

[0051] Since the top panel of the center console adopts all the technical solutions of the upper trim panel speaker cover assembly structure of 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.

[0052] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
