[0036] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, example embodiments can be implemented in a variety of forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention will be comprehensive and complete and fully convey the concepts of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the figures represent the same or similar structures, and thus their repeated description will be omitted.

[0037] Figure 1 The structure of the vehicle storage box in the closed state is shown. Figure 2 The structure of the vehicle storage box is shown in the open state. Figure 3 The front structure of the box is shown. Figure 4 The back structure of the box is shown. Figure 5 The back structure of the vehicle storage box is shown. Figure 6 The right back structure of the flip screen is shown. Figure 7 The left back structure of the flip screen is shown. Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the vehicle storage box of the present invention includes:

[0038] The box body 1 has a receiving cavity 10 surrounded by a bottom wall 11, a rear wall 12 and two side walls. The front end of the bottom wall 11 is provided with a guide plate 15 extending to the rear wall 12. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The direction indicated by the arrow a is the left-view direction of the vehicle storage box, and the direction indicated by the arrow b is the right-view direction of the vehicle storage box. The two side walls of the box body 1 include a left side wall 13 and a right side wall 14. In the following text, the left-view direction a and the right-view direction b are used to distinguish the two sides of the vehicle storage box and its various components, but the left and right directions are not a limitation of the present invention. As long as the left side wall 13 and the right side wall 14 are located on both sides of the box body 1, the structures of the left side wall 13 and the right side wall 14, as well as the structures and mutual cooperation relationships of the left and right sides of each component to be described below, can be interchangeable. In addition, the front end of the bottom wall 11 refers to the end relative to the rear wall 12, that is, the end extending outward from the accommodating cavity 10.

[0039] The flip screen 2 includes a flip cover 21 and a capacitive touch screen 22. The design of the capacitive touch screen 22 being integrated into the flip cover 21 is conducive to setting function adjustment keys on the capacitive touch screen 22, combining storage with function adjustment, facilitating the driver's operation, and improving the aesthetics of the vehicle interior. A rotating arm is provided on each side of the flip cover 21, including a left rotating arm 211 and a right rotating arm 212. The left rotating arm is pivotally connected to the left side wall 13 of the box body 1 through a transmission mechanism 4, and the right rotating arm 212 is pivotally connected to the right side wall 14 of the box body 1 through a transmission mechanism (not shown in the figure, the transmission mechanism structures on both sides are consistent). The transmission mechanism 4 can drive the left rotating arm 211 and the right rotating arm 212 to move the flip screen 2 along the guide plate 15 as shown in the figure. Figure 1 The closed state of the cover receiving chamber shown in FIG. Figure 2 The rotating arm is pivotally connected to the side wall of the box body 1 and driven by the transmission mechanism 4 to realize the flip screen 2 covering the accommodating cavity and opening the accommodating cavity 10 along the guide plate 15, which is convenient for use.

[0040] The wireless charging module 3 is installed below the bottom wall 11 of the box body 1, and is used to wirelessly charge a mobile device (such as a mobile phone 5) placed in the accommodating cavity 10. By integrating the wireless charging module 3 below the box body 1, the mobile device 5 can be wirelessly charged when it is placed in the box body 1, which increases the convenience of use and saves the layout space in the car.

[0041] Further, in some embodiments, reference may be made to Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The rotating arm of the rotating screen 2 (taking the left rotating arm 211 as an example, the right rotating arm 212 is the same) is provided with a through hole 2111, and a radially inwardly contracted step 2112 is provided in the through hole 2111. The transmission mechanism 4 (taking the left transmission mechanism 4 as an example, the right transmission mechanism is the same) includes: a first rotating shaft 41, which is fixed to the left side wall 13 of the box body 1 and has an extended end extending out of the left side wall 13. The second rotating shaft 42, the first end of which is embedded in the through hole 2111 of the left rotating arm 211 and the second end is fixed to the extended end of the first rotating shaft 41, the first end of the second rotating shaft 42 is provided with a radially outwardly protruding boss 421, and the step 2112 of the left rotating arm 211 is rotatably limited to the radial part H between the extended end of the first rotating shaft 41 and the boss 421 of the second rotating shaft 42. The torsion spring 43 is sleeved on the extended end of the first rotating shaft 41, and has a first pin 431 hooked against the left rotating arm 211, and a second pin 432 hooked against the left side wall 13 of the box body 1. The left rotating arm 211 can be provided with a groove for the first pin 431 to be embedded and hooked.

[0042] The transmission mechanism 4 adopts the first rotating shaft 41 and the second rotating shaft 42 to facilitate assembly between parts. The first rotating shaft 41 can be made integrally on the side wall 13 of the box body 1, and the second rotating shaft 42 is formed as a separate part. When assembling the second rotating shaft 42, refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the second end of the second shaft 42 extends from the through hole 2111 of the left rotating arm 211 and then extends out of the through hole 2111, and the boss 421 of the second shaft 42 is limited by the step 2112 provided in the through hole 2111. Figure 3 As shown, the second end of the second rotating shaft 42 extending out of the through hole 2111 is fixed to the protruding end of the first rotating shaft 41, and a radial portion H is reserved, so that the step 2112 of the left rotating arm 211 can be rotatably limited to the radial portion H between the protruding end of the first rotating shaft 41 and the boss 421 of the second rotating shaft 42.

[0043] Combination Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, Figure 8 From the left side, the left rotating arm 211 is shown in the state when the flip screen 2 is closed and opened. Figure 8 The dotted arc arrow in the left half of the figure is the motion trajectory of the left rotating arm 211 moving from the closed state to the open state, and the dotted arc arrow in the right half of the figure is the motion trajectory of the left rotating arm 211 moving from the open state to the closed state. Fig. 9 From the right side, the state of the right rotating arm 212 when the flip screen 2 is closed and opened is shown. Fig. 9 The dotted arc arrow in the left half of the figure is the motion trajectory of the right rotating arm 212 moving from the closed state to the open state, and the dotted arc arrow in the right half of the figure is the motion trajectory of the right rotating arm 212 moving from the open state to the closed state. In the closed state, when it is necessary to open the storage cavity of the vehicle storage box, the flip screen 2 can be actuated to press the flip screen 2 inward (i.e., toward the storage cavity). The torsion spring 43 generates torque after being stressed, driving the left rotating arm 211 and the right rotating arm 212 to rotate around the radial portion H between the first rotating shaft 41 and the second rotating shaft 42, respectively, so that the flip screen 2 moves along the guide plate 15 from the front end of the bottom wall 11 of the box body 1 to the rear wall 12, opening the storage cavity 10 of the box body 1 and presenting Figure 2 The mobile phone 5 can be placed in the storage cavity 10 of the vehicle storage box, and the wireless charging module 3 can wirelessly charge the mobile phone 5. Other items that need to be stored can also be placed in the storage cavity 10. When the storage cavity 10 needs to be closed, the flip screen 2 is pressed down to move the flip screen 2 along the guide plate 15 from the rear wall 12 of the box body 1 to the front end of the bottom wall 11, closing the storage cavity of the box body 1 and presenting Figure 1 When the flip screen 2 is opened or closed, the wireless charging module 3 can wirelessly charge the mobile phone 5 placed on the bottom wall 11 of the box body 1.

[0044] In the closed state, various function keys on the capacitive touch screen 22 integrated in the flip screen 2 can also be operated to adjust various functions in the vehicle. Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the capacitive touch screen 22 of the flip screen 2 is integrated with function keys such as air conditioning adjustment keys 221 and seat adjustment keys 222. By operating the air conditioning adjustment keys 221, various functions of the air conditioning in the car can be adjusted. By operating the seat adjustment keys 222, seat posture adjustment, seat heating and other function adjustments can be achieved. The capacitive touch screen 22 can be electrically connected to the instrument panel and other control modules of the vehicle through the wiring harness 223. The air conditioning adjustment keys 221, seat adjustment keys 222 and other function keys on the capacitive touch screen 22 are all routed through the wiring harness 223. Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, Figure 7 The structure of the wiring harness 223 is indicated by a dotted box. Figure 8The dashed box in the figure indicates the active state of the wire harness 223 when the flip screen 2 is closed and opened. The wire harness 223 includes a male end 2231, a female end 2232 and an active section 2233. The male end 2231 is fixed in the accommodation space set inside the left rotating arm 211 and is connected to the capacitive touch screen 22. During the closing and opening process of the flip screen 2, the male end 2231 always remains fixed with the left rotating arm 211 and does not undergo relative displacement. During the closing and opening process of the flip screen 2, the left rotating arm 211 serves as a hinge arm that rotates with the screen. This section of the area has particularly high requirements for the fatigue durability of the wire harness 223. Therefore, this section of the wire harness 223 (collectively referred to as the male end 2231) is fixed in the accommodation space of the left rotating arm 211. During the hinge process of the left rotating arm 211 rotating with the screen, the male end 2231 does not undergo relative displacement with the left rotating arm 211, thereby increasing the service life of the wire harness 223. In addition, the left rotating arm 211 can be provided with a detachable side plate 2110 to facilitate the installation of the male end 2231. The male end 2231 can be fixed to the internal space of the left rotating arm 211 through some buckles 2234, and the male end 2231 will not be exposed after the side plate 2110 is closed. The female end 2232 is fixed to the back of the guide plate 15, and is connected to the vehicle dashboard and other structures (not shown in the figure) through the wiring terminal 2236 when the vehicle storage box is assembled on the vehicle. The female end 2232 can be fixed to the back of the guide plate 15 and the rear wall 12 of the box body 1 through the assembly parts 2235 such as the switch card / switch seat. Further, the back of the guide plate 15 is provided with a guide track 150, and the movable section 2233 of the wire harness 223 passes through the guide track 150 of the guide plate 15 from the male end 2231 to the female end 2232. As the flip screen 2 is closed and opened, the movable section 2233 is limited to move in the guide track 150. During the closing and opening process of the flip screen 2, the active section 2233 is the main bending part of the harness 223. By passing the active section 2233 through and limiting it in the guide track 150 of the guide plate 15, it is ensured that the harness 223 moves within the preset track, conforms to the flipping of the flip screen 2, and will not be bent too much to cause damage. When designing the routing length of the active section 2233, it is necessary to consider that with the flipping of the flip screen 2, the routing length of the active section 2233 can meet the flipping displacement of the flip screen 2, and can bend and compensate for the displacement in the preset guide track 150. The routing length can be deduced by multiplying the flipping displacement of the flip screen 2 with the safety factor. In the closed state, the length of the harness 223 is about 150mm, and in the open state, the harness 223 is bent, and the length is about 160mm. Considering the harness tolerance range of ±5mm and giving a certain margin, the length of the harness 223 of the capacitive touch screen 22 is designed to be 170mm. The shape and bending state of the harness 223 when the flip screen 2 is closed and opened can refer to Figure 8 As shown in the two dotted boxes.

[0045] Further, in order to facilitate the installation and fixation of the second end of the second rotating shaft 42 and the extended end of the first rotating shaft 41, in a preferred embodiment, the second end of the second rotating shaft 42 and the extended end of the first rotating shaft 41 are fixed by means of engagement of convex teeth. Figure 3 As shown, the extended end of the first rotating shaft 41 is provided with a first protruding tooth 411 extending in the axial direction and a protruding rib 412 protruding outward in the radial direction, and the second end of the second rotating shaft 42 is provided with a second protruding tooth 422 extending in the axial direction. During installation, the second protruding tooth 422 of the second rotating shaft 42 is directly inserted into the gap of the first protruding tooth 411 of the first rotating shaft 41, so that the first protruding tooth 411 bites the second protruding tooth 422. The protruding rib 412 of the first rotating shaft 41 is used to limit the step 2112 of the left rotating arm 211 together with the boss 421 of the second rotating shaft 42. The structure and principle of the transmission mechanism pivotally matched with the right rotating arm 212 are the same, so it is not repeated.

[0046] Furthermore, in order to control the opening and closing speed of the flip screen 2, at least one side of the transmission mechanism 4 is provided with a damping mechanism. Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the damping mechanism 6 comprises a fixing seat 61 fixed to the side wall 14 of the box body 1 and a damping tooth 62 rotatably mounted on the fixing seat 61. A gear 2121 is provided at the free end of the right rotating arm 212, and the gear 2121 is meshed with the damping tooth 62 for transmission. During the opening and closing process of the flip screen 2, the damping mechanism 6 controls the flipping speed of the flip screen 2 through the meshing transmission of the damping tooth 62 and the gear 2121 of the right rotating arm 212, so that the flipping speed of the flip screen 2 is uniformly flipped.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the wireless charging module 3 is embedded below the bottom wall 11 of the box body 1 and is electrically connected to the vehicle's engine control module (ECM, not shown in the figure). Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the wireless charging module 3 is configured to: when a mobile phone 5 is placed, the mobile phone 5 is wirelessly charged. The wireless charging module 3 can wirelessly charge the mobile phone 5 by electromagnetic induction. Specifically, the wireless charging module 3 is provided with an electromagnetic coil for transmitting signals, and the mobile phone 5 is provided with an electromagnetic coil for receiving signals. When the mobile phone 5 is placed in the accommodating cavity 10 of the box body 1, it is located in the effective charging area of ​​the wireless charging module 3. The transmitting coil of the wireless charging module 3 generates a certain current in the receiving coil of the mobile phone 5 through electromagnetic induction based on the alternating current of a certain frequency, thereby transferring the point energy from the transmitting end (wireless charging module 3) to the receiving end (mobile phone 5), so that the wireless charging module 3 supplies power to the mobile phone 5. Further, when the engine control module sends a shutdown signal, the wireless charging module 3 detects whether there is a mobile device left in the accommodating cavity 10 of the box body 1 (such as detecting whether the mobile phone 5 is left in the accommodating cavity 10 by the above-mentioned electromagnetic induction method). If so, a prompt message is displayed on the capacitive touch screen 22. For example, a prompt "Please do not leave your phone behind" can be displayed in the prompt area 223 of the capacitive touch screen 22, thereby prompting the driver and passengers to take away their phones when turning off the engine and leaving the vehicle to avoid leaving them behind. Among them, when the engine control module sends out the shutdown signal depends on the configuration of the engine control module of the vehicle, and the present invention does not limit this. The present invention electrically connects the engine control module with the wireless charging module 3 and the capacitive touch screen 22 by adding a circuit, so as to detect whether the mobile phone is left in the vehicle storage box when the vehicle is turned off. If a mobile phone is left behind, a prompt is provided through the capacitive touch screen 22, so as to facilitate timely removal of the mobile phone. The capacitive touch screen 22 can be connected to the vehicle dashboard and further connected to the engine control module through the above-mentioned wiring harness 223, and the wireless charging module 3 can also be connected to the vehicle dashboard and further connected to the engine control module through the wiring harness, which will not be repeated here.

[0048] In some embodiments, the wireless charging module 3 and the bottom wall 11 of the box body 1 are installed and matched in the following manner: Figure 4 As shown, the lower surface of the bottom wall 11 is provided with a groove, and a pair of first flange ears 111 are provided on both sides; the wireless charging module 3 is embedded in the groove, and a pair of second flange ears 31 are provided on both sides, and the second flange ears 31 are screwed to the first flange ears 111 by bolts 32. By embedding the wireless charging module 3 in the groove below the bottom wall 11, the wireless charging module 3 is stably assembled, which is also conducive to the wireless charging module 3 being close to the bottom wall 11 to effectively charge the mobile devices in the accommodating cavity 10. In addition, the flange connection method makes the wireless charging module 3 optional, and a reserved installation structure is provided to facilitate differentiated needs. Further, you can refer to Figure 3 As shown, the side walls 13 and 14 of the box body 1 are provided with an escape space for installing the rotating arms 211 and 212, and the accommodating cavity 10 is formed into a convex-shaped accommodating cavity. Figure 2As shown, the mobile phone 5 can be placed in the lower space of the convex-shaped accommodating cavity 10 , and the effective charging area of ​​the wireless charging module 3 corresponds to the lower space of the convex-shaped accommodating cavity 10 , thereby achieving effective charging of the mobile phone 5 .

[0049] The guide plate 15 further includes: an open front wall 151 extending obliquely upward from the front end of the bottom wall 11; and an arc panel 152 connecting the front wall 151 and the rear wall 12. Avoidance holes 131 and 141 for the rotating arms 211 and 212 to pass through are provided at the connection between the arc panel 152 and the front wall 151. The positions of the avoidance holes 131 and 141 correspond to the avoidance space, which facilitates the passage and installation of the rotating arms 211 and 212.

[0050] Furthermore, in order to prevent the articles placed in the accommodating cavity 10 from sliding off during the driving of the vehicle, the bottom wall 11 of the box body 1 is arranged to be tilted upward horizontally, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, the inclination angle α satisfies: 30°<α<45°, which makes it convenient to put in and take out the items in the accommodating cavity 10 and prevents the items from slipping. In addition, the rear wall 12 of the box body 1 is provided with a USB interface 121 and a 12V power interface 122. Moreover, the various components of the vehicle storage box of the present invention, including the components of the box body 1 (such as the USB interface 121, the 12V power interface 122, etc.), the flip screen 2 and the wireless charging module 3, etc., can be optional. Users can choose the required components according to their needs when purchasing, which also increases the diversified choices in the after-sales market.

[0051] In summary, the vehicle storage box described in the above embodiments of the present invention integrates functions such as air conditioning and seat adjustment into the capacitive touch screen.
