The present disclosure relates to the field of vehicle sunroof fixing, and more particularly to a roof sunroof assembly and a vehicle using the roof sunroof assembly.
Vehicles such as commercial SUVs and cars are equipped with sunroofs that not only can meet the needs of ventilation, but also can broaden the field of view.
On the one hand, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a roof sunroof assembly, which includes a roof, a connector, and a sunroof. The roof is provided with a window, the connector is integrally formed with the roof, and the sunroof is fixed at the window of the roof by the connector.
On the other hand, embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a vehicle, including a roof sunroof assembly. The roof sunroof assembly includes a roof, a connector, and a sunroof. The roof is provided with a window, the connector is integrally formed with the roof, and the sunroof is fixed at the window of the roof by the connector.
Embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawing are illustrative. It should be understood that the embodiments described are intended to explain the present disclosure, but not to limit the present disclosure.
A sunroof is mostly fixed on a roof of a vehicle through a mushroom buckle, and the assembling of the mushroom buckle is time-consuming, laborious, and costly.
In order to solve the above problem, embodiments of the present disclosure propose a roof sunroof assembly.
As shown in
The roof 1 is provided with a window. As shown in
The material of the connector 2 may be the same as that of the roof 1, and the connector 2 may be integrally formed with the roof 1 and arranged at the window of the roof 1. The sunroof may be connected and fixed to the roof 1 by the connector 2. For example, the connector 2 may be provided with a fastener, and the sunroof may be provided with a groove. The fastener may be fitted in the groove, thus facilitating the installation and fixation of the sunroof and roof 1.
In the roof sunroof assembly according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the connector 2 and the roof 1 are arranged in one piece, it avoids the need to install and fix the connector 2 with the roof 1 first, thus simplifying the installation process and the fixing manner of the sunroof, and improving the convenience of assembling. In addition, compared with a mushroom buckle, the cost of the connector 2 is low, thus also realizing the purpose of reducing the cost and increasing the efficiency.
In some embodiments, the connector 2 is provided with an insertion slot 21, the sunroof is provided with an insertion piece 31, and the insertion piece 31 is configured to be fitted in the insertion slot 21 to fix the sunroof at the window of the roof 1. As shown in
In some embodiments, the connector 2 has an annular shape, and is arranged at the window and extends and closes along an opening edge of the window. The connector 2 is provided with a plurality of insertion slots 21 arranged at intervals along a circumferential direction of the connector 2, the sunroof is provided with a plurality of insertion pieces 31, and the plurality of insertion pieces 31 are fitted in a one-to-one correspondence in the plurality of insertion slots 21 of the connector 2.
Specifically, the connector 2 may be an integral structure, and the shape of the connector 2 matches with the shape of the window. For example, when the window is rectangular, the connector 2 may have a shape of a square ring, and the connector 2 may be arranged in a circle along the opening edge of the window. At this time, the connector 2 may be provided with the plurality of insertion slots 21 arranged at equal intervals along the circumferential direction of the connector 2, and a slot opening of each insertion slot 21 is towards an inside of the window.
As shown in
In some embodiments, a plurality of connectors 2 are provided, the plurality of connectors 2 are arranged at the window and arranged at intervals along the opening edge of the window, the sunroof 3 is provided with the plurality of insertion pieces 31, and the plurality of insertion pieces 31 are fitted in a one-to-one correspondence in the insertion slots 21 of the plurality of connectors 2.
Specifically, the plurality of connectors 2 may be arranged at equal intervals along the opening edge of the window, and each connector 2 may be provided with only one insertion slot 21. The plurality of insertion pieces 31 may be arranged at an outer peripheral side of the sunroof, and may be arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the sunroof. When installing the sunroof, the plurality of insertion pieces 31 of the sunroof may be inserted in a one-to-one correspondence into the insertion slot 21 of each connector 2, thus also ensuring the stability and structural strength of the installation of the sunroof at various positions.
In some embodiments, the insertion slot 21 includes an engaging cavity 211, and the insertion piece 31 is provided with an engaging portion 311. The engaging portion 311 is fitted in the engaging cavity 211, and an outer peripheral surface of the engaging portion 311 is configured to be stopped by an inner wall of the engaging cavity 211 to constrain the displacement of the insertion piece 31 in an insertion direction.
As shown in
When the insertion piece 31 is inserted into the insertion slot 21, as shown in
In some embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, the connector 2 is provided with a first extending portion 23 that is configured to be connected with the roof 1. As shown in
In some embodiments, the connector 2 is provided with a second extending portion 24 and a third extending portion 25 arranged in intervals. A fitting groove 26 is defined between the second extending portion 24 and the third extending portion 25, the sunroof 3 is provided with a fitting portion 11, and the fitting portion 11 is configured to be embedded into the fitting groove 26 to enhance the assembling stability of the connector 2.
As shown in
The roof 1 is provided with soft materials, such as rubber, as shown in
In some embodiments, the connector 2 is provided with a flanging 27 arranged at the slot opening of the insertion slot 21 and configured to be closely fitted with the sunroof 3. As shown in
