[0035] FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle that is assembled to a vehicle body according to the disclosure; FIG. 2 is a schematic exploded diagram of an embodiment of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle and the vehicle body according to the disclosure.

Fixing means include, but are not limited to, resistance spot welding (RSW), self-piercing riveting (SPR), etc. In one or more embodiments, a left drip channel 211 fixed above and covering the left D pillar 10 is further provided at the upper portion of the left sheet metal 210 so as to further increase the connection reliability between the left D pillar 10 and the vehicle body 2.
[0037] As shown in FIG. 2, in one or more embodiments, the left D pillar 10 has a substantially plate-like left D pillar body 11. The left D pillar body 11 is a metal casting machined by means of a high-pressure die-casting process, allowing it to have a good rigidity and strength. Preferably, the left D pillar body 11 is an aluminum alloy casting, allowing it to have a light weight, good mechanical strength and low material cost. Alternatively, the left D pillar body 11 may also be machined from other suitable metal materials, such as a magnesium alloy. In one or more embodiments, a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 12 are provided on the left D pillar body 11 to enhance the rigidity and strength of the left D pillar 10. As compared to stamped parts, various styles of first reinforcing ribs 12 may be easily machined by manufacturing the left D pillar 10 by the high-pressure die-casting process. Preferably, the positions of the first reinforcing ribs 12 may be optimized by means of topological design to make the ribs more rational.
[0038] With continued reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the right D pillar 20 is configured to be fixable to a right sheet metal 220 of the vehicle body 2. Specifically, the right D pillar 20 is fixed to an upper portion of the right sheet metal 220 substantially in the X-direction of the vehicle.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2, in one or more embodiments, the right D pillar 20 has a substantially plate-like right D pillar body 21. Preferably, the right D pillar body 21 has a structure that is bilaterally symmetrical with the left D pillar body 11 with respect to the central axis of the vehicle body 2, so that the structure can be simplified, machining can be facilitated, and it is ensured that the two bodies are subject to a balanced external force. The right D pillar body 21 is a metal casting machined by the high-pressure die-casting process, allowing it to have a good rigidity and strength. Preferably, the right D pillar body 21 is an aluminum alloy casting, allowing it to have a light weight, good mechanical strength and low material cost. Alternatively, the right D pillar body 21 may also be machined from other suitable metal materials, such as an magnesium alloy. In one or more embodiments, a plurality of second reinforcing ribs 22 are provided on the right D pillar body 21 to enhance the rigidity and strength of the right D pillar 20. As compared to stamped parts, various styles of second reinforcing ribs 22 may be easily machined by manufacturing the right D pillar 20 by the high-pressure die-casting process. Preferably, the positions of the second reinforcing ribs 22 may be optimized by means of topological design to make the ribs more rational.
[0040] FIG. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the lower cross beam of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle according to the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, in one or more embodiments, the lower cross beam 30 has a substantially plate-like lower cross beam body 31. Preferably, the lower cross beam body 31 is configured to be bilaterally symmetrical with respect to the central axis to facilitate machining. The lower cross beam body 31 is a metal casting machined by the high-pressure die-casting process, allowing it to have a good rigidity and strength. Preferably, the lower cross beam body 31 is an aluminum alloy casting, allowing it to have a light weight, good mechanical strength and low material cost. Alternatively, the lower cross beam body 31 may also be machined from other suitable metal materials, such as an magnesium alloy. In one or more embodiments, the lower cross beam body 31 has a thickness in a range of 2.5 mm-3.5 mm, which facilitates cast molding and allows the lower cross beam body to have good mechanical properties. On the basis of the orientation shown in FIG. 5, in one or more embodiments, a plurality of transverse reinforcing ribs 32 extending in a left-right direction and a plurality of longitudinal reinforcing ribs 33 extending in an up-down direction are provided on the lower cross beam body 31, and the transverse reinforcing ribs 32 and the longitudinal reinforcing ribs 33 are arranged alternately with each other. With the above-described configuration, the rigidity and strength of the lower cross beam body 31 can be enhanced, allowing the lower cross beam body to have good mechanical properties. By machining the lower cross beam body 31 by the high-pressure die-casting process, it is easy and quick for the reinforcing ribs to be manufactured. It should be noted that the numbers and heights of the transverse reinforcing ribs 32 and the longitudinal reinforcing ribs 33 can be optimized according to the topological design, so as to allow the ribs to have optimal mechanical properties in a limited space. In one or more embodiments, a cylindrical protrusion 34 extending perpendicularly outwardly from the lower cross beam body 31 is provided at each of junctions between the transverse reinforcing ribs 32 and the longitudinal reinforcing ribs 33, so as to further enhance the strength at the junctions between the reinforcing ribs and to prevent the reinforcing ribs from deforming due to an excessive length.
[0041] FIG. 7 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a pre-positioning structure of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle according to the disclosure; FIG. 8 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a pre-positioning post of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle according to the disclosure; FIG. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a pre-positioning groove of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle according to the disclosure.
[0042] The pre-positioning structure 60 in the rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1 for a vehicle according to the disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 7-9.
[0043] As shown in FIG. 7, the pre-positioning structure 60 comprises the pre-positioning posts 61 and the pre-positioning holes 62 matched with each other. The pre-positioning posts 61 include a left pre-positioning post 14 formed on the left D pillar 10 and a right pre-positioning post 24 formed on the right D pillar 20. The pre-positioning holes 62 includes a left pre-positioning hole 351 formed in the left side of the lower cross beam 30 and a right pre-positioning hole 361 formed in the right side of the lower cross beam. The left pre-positioning post 14 is matched with the left pre-positioning hole 351 and the right pre-positioning post 24 is matched with the right pre-positioning hole 361 such that the lower cross beam 30 can be in lap joint between the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20. By means of the matching between the pre-positioning posts 61 and the pre-positioning holes 62, the lower cross beam 30 can be easily pre-positioned and be in lap joint between the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20 when actually assembled. Further, after the lower cross beam 30, the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20 are in lap joint together, since the pre-positioning posts 61 are limited between corresponding pre-positioning holes 62, the lower cross beam 30 will not be released from the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20 when the above-described components are translated from a positioning station to a fixing station (namely, the lower cross beam 30 will not shake off from the left D pillar 10 and/or the right D pillar 20 during the movement), and accordingly the assembly efficiency is significantly increased. In one or more embodiments, a fixed connection is formed at the lap joints between the lower cross beam 30 and the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20 by means of combining welding with a structural adhesive, so as to form firm a fixed connection at the lap joints. Alternatively, the lap joints between the lower cross beam 30 and the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20 may also be fixed by combining self-piercing riveting with a structural adhesive or by other suitable means.
[0044] With continued reference to FIG. 2 and on the basis of the orientation shown in FIG. 2, a left lap joint region 13 is formed on the right side of the left D pillar body 11 and extends substantially in the up-down direction (i.e., the X-direction of the vehicle in an assembled state). A left pre-positioning post 14 is formed in the left lap joint region 13. As shown in FIG. 8, the left pre-positioning post 14 is a columnar protrusion 611 extending from the left lap joint region 13 along a center line (i.e., a direction indicated by L1 in FIG. 8) offset from the Z direction of the vehicle (i.e., a direction indicated by L2 in FIG. 8) by the predetermined acute angle α. The left pre-positioning post 14 extends obliquely toward the upper left based on the direction shown in FIG. 3. The obliquely arranged columnar protrusions 611 are also easy to demold during casting machining. The predetermined acute angle is within a range of 5°-25° such that the columnar protrusions 611 have a moderate angle of inclination, preventing a too small angle from increasing the difficulty of demoulding, and preventing a too large angle from causing failure to match with corresponding pre-positioning holes 62. Preferably, the left pre-positioning post 14 is configured to be connected to the first reinforcing rib 12 so as to further enhance the rigidity and strength of the left pre-positioning post 14.
[0045] Accordingly, with continued reference to FIG. 2 and on the basis of the orientation shown in FIG. 2, a right lap joint region 23 a right lap joint region 23 is formed on the right side of the right D pillar body 21 and extends substantially in the up-down direction (i.e., the X-direction of the vehicle in the assembled state). The right pre-positioning post 24 is formed in the right lap joint region 23, and the right pre-positioning post 24 is a columnar protrusion 611 extending from the right lap joint region 23 along the center line offset from the Z-direction of the vehicle by the predetermined acute angle α, i.e., extending obliquely toward the upper right. Preferably, the right pre-positioning post 24 is configured to be connected to the second reinforcing rib 22 so as to further enhance the rigidity and strength of the right pre-positioning post 24.
[0046] With continued reference to FIG. 3 and on the basis of the orientation shown in FIG. 3, a left lap joint edge 35 extending in the up-down direction (i.e., the X-direction of the vehicle in the assembled state) is provided on the left side of the lower cross beam 30. In one or more embodiments, in the assembled state, the left lap joint edge 35 intersects with the left pre-positioning post 14, and the left lap joint edge 35 is oblique upwardly (based on the orientation shown in FIG. 10) relative to the lower cross beam body 32, rather than perpendicular to the Z-direction of the vehicle (i.e., the up-down direction of the vehicle), and such a configuration allows the lower cross beam 30 to fall down onto the left D pillar 10 along the center line of the left pre-positioning post 14. A left pre-positioning hole 351 is formed in the middle of the left lap joint edge 35. As shown in FIG. 9, the left pre-positioning hole 351 is a U-shaped groove 621 with an opening facing away from the lower cross beam body 31 (i.e., toward the left side). In one or more embodiments, a rounded guide edge 6211 is formed at each of the edges of the U-shaped grooves 621 close to the lower cross beam body 31 such that the left pre-positioning post 14 can be easily inserted into the left pre-positioning hole 351. With continued reference to FIG. 7, in one or more embodiments, when the left pre-positioning post 14 is inserted into the left pre-positioning hole 351, a predetermined gap is reserved between the left pre-positioning post 14 and the left pre-positioning hole 351 such that the left pre-positioning post 14 is more easily inserted into the left pre-positioning hole 351. In one or more embodiments, a boss 37 extending perpendicularly upwardly from the left lap joint edge 35 is formed around the left pre-positioning hole 351, so that the lower cross beam 30 can be prevented from being released from the left D pillar 10 and the right D pillar 20 during translation, the rigidity and strength of the region of the left pre-positioning hole 351 can also be enhanced to prevent the region from deforming to shorten its service life.
[0047] Accordingly, with continued reference to FIG. 3 and on the basis of the orientation shown in FIG. 3, a left lap joint edge 36 extending in the up-down direction (i.e., the X-direction of the vehicle in the assembled state) is provided on the right side of the lower cross beam 30. In one or more embodiments, in the assembled state, the right lap joint edge 36 also intersects with the right pre-positioning post 24 and the right lap joint edge 36 is oblique upwardly relative to the lower cross beam body 32, rather than perpendicular to the Z-direction of the vehicle (i.e., the up-down direction of the vehicle), and such a configuration allows the lower cross beam 30 to fall down onto the right D pillar 20 along the center line of the right pre-positioning post 24. A right pre-positioning hole 361 is formed in the middle of the right lap joint edge 36. It should be noted that the right pre-positioning hole 361 may be arranged symmetrically with the left pre-positioning hole 351 along the central axis of the lower cross beam 30, which will not be described in detail herein.
[0048] With continued reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, in one or more embodiments, the rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1 for a vehicle of the disclosure further comprises an upper cross beam 40 located above the lower cross beam 30 and fixedly connected to each of the left D pillar 10, the lower cross beam 30, and the right D pillar 20. FIG. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the upper cross beam of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle according to the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4, in one or more embodiments, the upper cross beam 40 has a substantially plate-like upper cross beam body 41. The upper cross beam body 41 is a metal stamped part machined by means of mechanical stamping so as to reduce the machining cost. Preferably, the upper cross beam body 41 is an aluminum alloy stamped part, allowing it to have a light weight, good mechanical strength and low material cost. Alternatively, the upper cross beam body 41 may also be machined from other suitable metal materials, such as a magnesium alloy.
[0049] FIG. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the rear roof cross beam mounting structure for a vehicle according to the disclosure, with the upper cross beam assembled to the lower cross beam; FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A shown in FIG. 5; FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view taken along line B-B shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIGS. 1, 5, 6, and 10, the upper cross beam 40 is arranged over fixedly connected to each of the left D pillar 10, the lower cross beam 30, and the right D pillar 20. Fixating means include, but are not limited to, resistance spot welding, self-piercing riveting, etc. The upper cross beam 40, the left D pillar 10, the lower cross beam 30 and the right D pillar 20 jointly enclose a reinforcement cavity 50 to further enhance the rigidity and strength of the entire rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1.
[0050] In the rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1 for a vehicle according to the disclosure, the left D pillar 10, the lower cross beam 30 and the right D pillar 20 are provided as metal castings, such that the rigidity and strength of components can be enhanced with arranged reinforcing ribs in a limited space, stress conduction can be enhanced, torsion caused by insufficient mechanical strength can be prevented, and NVH (i.e., Noise, vibration, harshness) properties can be optimized accordingly. The arrangement of the upper cross beam 40 makes it possible to form the reinforcement cavity 50 in the rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1 so as to further enhance the rigidity and strength. In addition, the upper cross beam 40 is provided as a metal stamped part, so that the machining cost can be reduced on the basis of achieving mechanical strength and NVH properties.
[0051] The disclosure further provides a vehicle (not shown in the figures). The vehicle comprises the rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1 for a vehicle described in any one of the above embodiments. In one or more embodiments, the vehicle is a pure electric vehicle. Alternatively, the vehicle may be a hybrid vehicle, a fuel vehicle, or another proper vehicle. The vehicle may be a car, an SUV, an MPV or other suitable vehicles. The vehicle further comprises components such as a vehicle body 2 (see FIG. 1), wheels, seats, a steering wheel. The vehicle body 2 comprises a left sheet metal 210 and a right sheet metal 220 that are symmetrical bilaterally. The rear roof cross beam mounting structure 1 is fixed between the left sheet metal 210 and the right sheet metal 220 so as to increase the rigidity and strength of the entire vehicle.
