DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more readily apparent, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following description sets forth numerous specific details to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar modifications without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figures 1-4, a skylight running channel 10 includes a hollow tube 11 and an end piece 12, wherein the hollow tube 11 includes an outer pipe 111 and an inner pipe 112; the end piece 12 includes a first end piece 121 and a second end piece 122; one end of the outer pipe 111 and the inner pipe 112 is connected to the first end piece 121, and the other end of the inner pipe 112 is connected to the second end piece 122; the end piece 12 is used to be installed on the skylight glass 21, and the end piece 12 includes an upper part 123 away from the skylight glass 21 and a lower part 124 close to the skylight glass 21, and the side of the upper part 123 away from the skylight glass 21 is an upper surface 1230; the upper part 123 is provided with a mating hole 125 connected to the hollow tube 11, and the lower part 124 is provided with an extension part 126 for installation on the skylight glass 21.

[0048] The inner pipe 112 of the hollow tube 11 is used for the movement of the cable 25 to drive the sunshade to open or close, and the outer pipe 111 of the hollow tube 11 is used for the recovery of the cable 25; the end piece 12 can play a positioning role in the mold; the hollow tube 11 is arranged in the matching hole 125 of the upper part 123, and the extension part 126 of the lower part 124 is installed on the skylight glass 21. There is a height difference between the upper part 123 and the lower part 124, which can prevent the hollow tube 11 from directly contacting the skylight glass 21 and causing deformation and damage to the hollow tube 11.

[0049] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 1-4, the extension portion 126 is provided with a buffer portion 1261 for connecting with the skylight glass 21. The buffer portion 1261 of the lower component 124 primarily serves to cushion the hollow tube 11 when the upper mold is pressed downward, preventing deformation or damage to the hollow tube 11 caused by direct contact between the hollow tube 11 and the skylight glass 21.

[0050] Preferably, as shown in FIG. 4 , the interference amount between the buffer portion 1261 and the sunroof glass 21 is A, and 1 mm ≤ A ≤ 2 mm.

[0051] It should be noted that the buffer portion 1261 in FIG. 4 has not yet been deformed. After the buffer portion 1261 is deformed, the buffer portion 1261 will not penetrate into the sunroof glass 21 .

[0052] Furthermore, the material of the buffer portion 1261 is a thermoplastic elastomer. Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) has excellent properties such as high elasticity, aging resistance, and oil resistance, while also being easy to process and versatile. This prevents the buffer portion 1261 of the lower component 124 from plastic deformation or fracture when subjected to stress.

[0053] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2-3 , the upper surface 1230 of the upper component 123 is provided with a first positioning portion 1231 for positioning in a mold.

[0054] A first matching portion that matches the first positioning portion 1231 is provided in the mold. When the end piece 12 is in contact with the mold surface, the first positioning portion 1231 matches the first matching portion to achieve precise positioning of the hollow tube 11 in the mold.

[0055] Preferably, the first positioning portion 1231 is a concave or convex. When the first positioning portion 1231 is a concave, the first matching portion is a convex adapted to the concave; when the first positioning portion 1231 is a convex, the first matching portion is a concave adapted to the convex.

[0056] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2-3 , the extension portion 126 is further provided with a second positioning portion 1262 for positioning in a mold.

[0057] A second matching portion that matches the second positioning portion 1262 is provided in the mold. When the end piece 12 is in contact with the mold surface, the second positioning portion 1262 matches the second matching portion to achieve precise positioning of the hollow tube 11 in the mold.

[0058] Preferably, the second positioning portion 1262 is a positioning hole. In this case, a positioning pin is provided in the mold to cooperate with the positioning hole. The end piece 12 can be precisely positioned in the mold by cooperating with the positioning hole and the positioning pin. It should be noted that the number of the positioning holes can be one or more, and can be set according to actual positioning requirements.

[0059] In one embodiment, a mounting hole 1232 is formed on the upper surface 1230 of the upper component 123 , and a nut 1233 is disposed in the mounting hole 1232 .

[0060] The mounting hole 1232 can be used to cooperate with the positioning pin in the mold to improve the positioning accuracy of the hollow tube 11 in the mold; the nut 1233 can be used to cooperate with the bolt to lock the motor to the motor mounting portion 22.

[0061] Preferably, the end piece 12, the hollow tube 11 and the nut 1233 are integrally injection-molded, thereby further simplifying the manufacturing process and the assembly process.

[0062] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figures 5-7, a sunroof assembly 20 is provided, including:

[0063] Skylight glass 21;

[0064] The motor mounting portion 22 is mounted on the skylight glass 21;

[0065] The two canopy operation channels 10 as described above are connected by injection molding through the edging 24 and fixed on the skylight glass 21; two canopy operation channels 10 are respectively provided at both ends of the motor mounting portion 22; and

[0066] Two guide rails 23 , one end of each of the two guide rails 23 is aligned with the two second end heads 122 , and the two guide rails 23 are arranged in parallel; the guide rails 23 and the canopy running channel 10 form a pipeline for transmission of the cable 25 .

[0067] The structural design of the hollow tube 11 and the end piece 12 in the canopy running channel 10 allows for more precise positioning of the hollow tube 11 during the injection molding process and during the edging 24. Furthermore, the integration of the hollow tube 11 into the glass edging 24 not only solves problems such as vibration, noise, and falling of the hollow tube 11, effectively securing the hollow tube 11, but also eliminates the plastic crossbeam used in the prior art, simplifying the assembly process, reducing the roof height, optimizing costs, and improving market competitiveness.

[0068] In this embodiment, the material of the sunroof glass 21 is not limited, and is typically inorganic glass, organic glass, or a composite material; the material of the guide rail 23 is not limited, and is typically plastic or metal; the material of the edging 24 is not limited, and is typically polyvinyl chloride (PVC), thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), or polyurethane (PU), etc.

[0069] In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 , a plurality of process clamping portions 26 are provided on the hollow tube 11 . The process clamping portions 26 are sequentially spaced along the arrangement path of the hollow tube 11 , and the process clamping portions 26 expose the edging 24 .

[0070] During the injection molding of the edging 24, the process clamping portion 26 can be clamped and cooperated with a clamping jaw (not shown) to adjust the direction of the hollow tube 11. Since the process clamping portion 26 exposes the edging 24, the clamping jaw (not shown) can be removed from the hollow tube 11 after the edging 24 is injection molded.

[0071] Furthermore, the hollow tube 11 includes a first straight pipe section 113 connected to the motor mounting portion 22, a second straight pipe section 114 arranged along the guide direction of the guide rail 23, and a curved section 115 for connecting the first straight pipe section 113 and the second straight pipe section 114, at least one process clamping portion 26 is arranged on the first straight pipe section 113, and at least one process clamping portion 26 is arranged on the curved section 115.

[0072] At least one of the process clamping parts 26 is arranged on the first straight pipe section 113 to ensure the stability of the first straight pipe section 113, improve the axial positioning accuracy between the matching holes 125 of the two first end heads 121 connected to the outer pipe 111, and improve the axial positioning accuracy between the matching holes 125 of the two first end heads 121 connected to the inner pipe 112; at least one of the process clamping parts 26 is arranged on the curved section 115, so that the hollow tube 11 can form a stable bending arc.

[0073] It should be noted that the process clamping portion 26 can also be set in the second straight pipe section 114. The process clamping portion 26 set in the second straight pipe section 114 can be used to ensure the stability of the second straight pipe section 114 and improve the axial positioning accuracy between the two second end heads 122 and the adjacent guide rails 23.

[0074] Preferably, the length of the process clamping portion 26 is B, and 10 mm ≤ B ≤ 20 mm, for example, 10 mm, 12 mm, 14 mm, 16 mm, 18 mm or 20 mm.

[0075] In one embodiment, the concentricity error between the matching holes 125 of the two first end heads 121 connected to the outer pipe 111 is ±0.3 mm; the concentricity error between the matching holes 125 of the two first end heads 121 connected to the inner pipe 112 is ±0.3 mm, so as to prevent abnormal noise when the cable 25 slides at the transition position of the two first end heads 121.

[0076] In one embodiment, the concentricity error between the matching holes 125 of the two second end heads 122 and the adjacent guide rails 23 is ±0.3 mm to prevent abnormal noise from occurring when the cable 25 slides at the transition position between the second end heads 122 and the adjacent guide rails 23.

[0077] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 6-7, the hollow tube 11 is enclosed in the edging 24, and the lower component 124 is enclosed in the edging 24. The hollow tube 11 and the lower component 124 of the end piece 12 are connected to the sunroof glass 21 via the edging 24, eliminating the large plastic crossbeam in the prior art, simplifying the assembly process of components, reducing the height of the roof, and optimizing costs.

[0078] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5 , the other end of the outer pipe 111 exposes the edging 24 .

[0079] In some other embodiments of the present application, a vehicle is provided, including a motor (not shown in the figure) and the sunroof assembly 20 as described above; the motor (not shown in the figure) is installed on the motor mounting portion 22.

[0080] The structural design of the hollow tube 11 and end piece 12 in the aforementioned vehicle allows for more precise positioning of the hollow tube 11 during the injection molding process and during the edging 24. This ensures the required concentricity between the two first end pieces 121 and between the second end piece 122 and the adjacent guide rail 23, thus preventing any noise within the operating channel caused by the movement of the cable 25. Furthermore, the integration of the hollow tube 11 into the glass edging 24 not only eliminates problems such as vibration, noise, and falling of the hollow tube 11, effectively securing it, but also eliminates the plastic crossbeam used in prior art, simplifying the component assembly process, reducing the roof height, optimizing costs, and improving market competitiveness.

[0081] In one embodiment, the motor (not shown) is locked to the motor mounting portion 22 by means of bolts (not shown) that cooperate with the nuts 1233 of the end piece 12 .

[0082] It should be noted that the edging 24 may also be provided with a nut located between the nuts 1233 of the two end pieces 12. The nut is combined with the nuts 1233 of the two end pieces 12 and is used together with the bolts (not shown in the figure) to lock the motor (not shown in the figure) to the motor mounting portion 22.

[0083] It should be noted that in the present invention, if the skylight glass 21 is inorganic glass, examples thereof include soda-lime glass (also known as soda-lime silicate glass), aluminosilicate glass, borate glass, borosilicate glass, lithium aluminosilicate glass, alkali-free glass, and quartz glass. Soda-lime glass is particularly preferred among these. To improve strength, the inorganic glass may also be tempered glass, which may be either chemically tempered glass or physically tempered glass.

[0084] If the skylight glass 21 is organic glass (resin), examples thereof include polycarbonate resins, polystyrene resins, aromatic polyester resins, acrylic resins, polyester resins, polyarylate resins, polycondensates of halogenated bisphenol A and ethylene glycol, acrylic urethane resins, and acrylic resins containing halogenated aromatic groups. Among these, polycarbonate resins such as aromatic polycarbonate resins and acrylic resins such as polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resins are preferred, polycarbonate resins are more preferred, and bisphenol A polycarbonate resins are particularly preferred. Furthermore, two or more of the above resins may be used in combination.
