DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0030] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention clearer and easier to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , a canopy (also referred to as a sunshade) running channel 10 includes a hollow tube 11 and an end member 12. The hollow tube 11 includes an outer tube 111 and an inner tube 112, and the end member 12 includes a first end member 121 and a second end member 122. One end of the outer tube 111 and one end of the inner tube 112 are connected to the first end member 121, and the other end of the inner tube 112 is connected to the second end member 122. The end member 12 is configured to be attached to a sunroof glass 21, and includes an upper member 123 remote from the sunroof glass 21 and a lower member 124 close to the sunroof glass 21. One surface of the upper member 123 remote from the sunroof glass 21 is an upper surface 1230. The upper member 123 is provided with a fitting hole 125 communicating with the hollow tube 11. The lower member 124 has an extension 126 for attachment to the sunroof glass 21 .

[0032] The inner tube 112 of the hollow tube 11 is for moving the cable 25 to open and close the sunshade. The outer tube 111 of the hollow tube 11 is for retracting the cable 25. The end piece 12 can be used for positioning in a mold. The hollow tube 11 is installed in a fitting hole 125 of an upper member 123, and an extension portion 126 of a lower member 124 is attached to the sunroof glass 21. There is a height difference between the upper member 123 and the lower member 124. This prevents the hollow tube 11 from directly contacting the sunroof glass 21, preventing deformation and damage of the hollow tube 11.

[0033] 1 to 4, the extension portion 126 includes a buffer portion 1261 for connection to the sunroof glass 21. The main role of the buffer portion 1261 of the lower member 124 is to provide a buffer for the hollow tube 11 when pressed down by the upper mold, and to prevent the hollow tube 11 from being deformed or damaged by preventing the hollow tube 11 from coming into direct contact with the sunroof glass 21.

[0034] Preferably, as shown in FIG. 4, the interference amount between the buffer portion 1261 and the sunroof glass 21 is A, and is in the range of 1 mm≦A≦2 mm.

[0035] 4, the buffer portion 1261 has not yet been deformed. After the buffer portion 1261 is deformed, the buffer portion 1261 does not penetrate into the sunroof glass 21.

[0036] Furthermore, the material of the buffer portion 1261 is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) material. TPE has various excellent properties such as high elasticity, aging resistance, and oil resistance, and is also characterized by being easy to process and being able to be processed in various forms. This material makes the buffer portion 1261 of the lower member 124 less susceptible to plastic deformation and breakage when subjected to force.

[0037] In one embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, an upper surface 1230 of the upper member 123 is provided with a first positioning portion 1231 for positioning in a mold.

[0038] The mold is provided with a first fitting portion that fits into the first positioning portion 1231. When the end piece 12 contacts the surface of the mold, the first positioning portion 1231 fits into the first fitting portion, allowing the hollow tube 11 to be accurately positioned in the mold.

[0039] Preferably, the first positioning portion 1231 is a recess or a protrusion. If the first positioning portion 1231 is a recess, the first fitting portion is a protrusion that fits into the recess. If the first positioning portion 1231 is a protrusion, the first fitting portion is a recess that fits into the protrusion.

[0040] In one embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2-3, the extension portion 126 further includes a second positioning portion 1262 for positioning in the mold.

[0041] The mold is provided with a second fitting that fits into the second positioning portion 1262. When the end piece 12 contacts the surface of the mold, the second positioning portion 1262 fits into the second fitting, allowing the hollow tube 11 to be accurately positioned in the mold.

[0042] Preferably, the second positioning portion 1262 is a positioning hole. In this case, a positioning pin that fits into the positioning hole is provided in the mold. By fitting the positioning hole and the positioning pin, the end piece 12 can be accurately positioned in the mold. Note that the number of positioning holes can be one or more, and can be provided according to actual positioning needs.

[0043] In one embodiment, the upper surface 1230 of the upper member 123 has a mounting hole 1232 within which a nut 1233 is disposed.

[0044] The mounting holes 1232 can be fitted with positioning pins in the mold to improve the accuracy of positioning the hollow tube 11 in the mold. The nuts 1233 cooperate with the bolts to lock the motor to the motor mounting portion 22.

[0045] Preferably, the end piece 12, the hollow tube 11 and the nut 1233 are integrally injection molded, which can further simplify the manufacturing and assembly processes.

One of the two canopy travel channels 10 is provided at one end of the motor mounting portion 22, and the other of the two canopy travel channels 10 is provided at the other end of the motor mounting portion 22. One end of one of the two guide rails 23 is aligned with one of the two second end pieces 122, and one end of the other of the two guide rails 23 is aligned with the other of the two second end pieces 122. The two guide rails 23 are arranged parallel to one another. Cooperation between the guide rails 23 and the canopy running channel 10 forms a tube for the movement of the cable 25.

[0047] The structural design of the hollow tube 11 and end pieces 12 in the canopy operating channel 10 allows the hollow tube 11 to be more accurately positioned in the encapsulation 24 during the injection molding process, and the hollow tube 11 is concentrated within the glass encapsulation 24. This solves the problems of the hollow tube 11 shaking, noise, and falling off, and effectively fixes the hollow tube 11, while eliminating the plastic cross members used in the prior art, simplifying the assembly process of parts, increasing headroom inside the vehicle, optimizing costs, and improving market competitiveness.

[0048] In this embodiment, the material of the sunroof glass 21 is not limited and is usually inorganic glass, organic glass, or a composite material.

[0050] When the encapsulation 24 is injection molded, the process clamp portion 26 is clamped by a clamping claw (not shown) and can adjust the direction of the hollow tube 11 in cooperation with the clamping claw. After the injection molding of the encapsulation 24 is completed, the clamping claw (not shown) can be removed from the hollow tube 11, so that the process clamp portion 26 is not enclosed within the encapsulation 24 but is exposed.

[0051] Furthermore, the hollow tube 11 includes a first straight pipe segment 113 connected to the motor mounting portion 22, a second straight pipe segment 114 provided along the guide direction of the guide rail 23, and a curved pipe segment 115 for connecting the first straight pipe segment 113 and the second straight pipe segment 114. At least one process clamp portion 26 is provided on the first straight pipe segment 113, and at least one process clamp portion 26 is provided on the curved pipe segment 115.

[0052] At least one step clamp 26 is provided on the first straight pipe segment 113, thereby ensuring the stability of the first straight pipe segment 113 and improving the axial positioning accuracy of the fitting holes 125 of the two first end pieces 121 communicating with the outer pipe 111 and the axial positioning accuracy of the fitting holes 125 of the two first end pieces 121 communicating with the inner pipe 112. At least one step clamp 26 is provided on the bending pipe segment 115, thereby enabling the hollow pipe 11 to form a stable bending arc.

[0053] The process clamp 26 may be provided on the second straight pipe segment 114. The process clamp 26 provided on the second straight pipe segment 114 can be used to ensure the stability of the second straight pipe segment 114 and to improve the axial positioning accuracy of each of the two second end pieces 122 and the guide rail 23 adjacent to the second end piece 122.

[0054] Preferably, the length of each of the plurality of step clamping portions 26 is B, and 10 mm≦B≦20 mm, for example, B is 10 mm, 12 mm, 14 mm, 16 mm, 18 mm, or 20 mm.

[0055] In one embodiment, two first end pieces 121 communicate with the outer tube 111. a first end piece 121 Fitting hole 125 and a fitting hole 125 of the other of the two first end pieces 121 that communicates with the inner pipe 112. The concentricity error is ±0.3 mm. be This can prevent noise from being generated when the cable 25 slides at the transition position between the two first end pieces 121.

[0056] In one embodiment, the concentricity error between the fitting holes 125 of each of the two second end pieces 122 and the guide rail 23 adjacent to that second end piece 122 is ±0.3 mm, which can prevent noise from being generated when the cable 25 slides at the transition position between each of the second end pieces 122 and the guide rail 23 adjacent to that second end piece 122.

[0057] 6 and 7, the hollow tube 11 is enclosed in an encapsulation 24, and the lower member 124 is enclosed in the encapsulation 24. The hollow tube 11 and the lower member 124 of the end piece 12 are connected to the sunroof glass 21 via the encapsulation 24. This eliminates the need for a large plastic cross member as in the prior art, simplifies the assembly process of the parts, increases headroom inside the vehicle, and optimizes costs.

[0058] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5, the other end of the outer tube 111 is not enclosed within the encapsulation 24 but is exposed.

[0059] In some further embodiments of the present application, a vehicle is provided, which includes a motor (not shown) and the sunroof assembly 20 described above. The motor (not shown) is attached to a motor mounting portion 22.

[0060] The structural design of the hollow tube 11 and end piece 12 in the vehicle allows for more accurate positioning of the hollow tube 11 in the encapsulation 24 during the injection molding process, ensuring the concentricity requirements between the two first end pieces 121 and between the second end piece 122 and the guide rail 23 adjacent to the second end piece 122, thereby preventing noise from being generated in the running channel during the movement of the cable 25. In addition, the hollow tube 11 is concentrated within the glass encapsulation 24, thereby solving problems such as the hollow tube 11 shaking, noise, and falling off and effectively fixing the hollow tube 11, while eliminating the need for plastic cross members in the prior art, simplifying the assembly process, increasing headroom within the vehicle, optimizing costs, and improving market competitiveness.

[0061] In one embodiment, the motor (not shown) is locked to the motor mount 22 by cooperation of a bolt (not shown) and a nut 1233 on the end piece 12 .

[0062] It should be noted that the encapsulation 24 may be provided with a nut located between the nuts 1233 of the two end pieces 12. This nut, in combination with the nuts 1233 of the two end pieces 12, is used to lock the motor (not shown) to the motor mounting portion 22 in cooperation with a bolt (not shown).
