Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile cup holders, and in particular relates to a pull-rope type lifting cup holder. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of residents' living standards and the development of the automobile industry, family cars are becoming more and more popular, which has also led to the rapid development of upstream and downstream enterprises in the automobile industry, such as auto parts. Among auto parts, the cup holder inside the car is one of the standard configurations. The cup holder is used to place cups or other small objects. It is generally set between the main driver's seat and the co-driver's seat for easy access.

[0003] In the prior art, the cup holder structure in the car is generally a fixed structure, with a cup placement cavity of fixed depth and fixed diameter, for placing cups or beverage bottles. Once debris or small objects fall into the cup placement cavity of this type of fixed cup holder structure, it is difficult to take them out, and the bottom of the cup placement cavity is also difficult to wipe and clean, and dirt is inevitably accumulated over time. In addition, the cup holder structure with a cavity does not have a flat surface, which makes it inconvenient to place some objects, resulting in low space utilization in the car.

[0004] Based on the above status quo, there are some car cup holders with lifting functions, but these cup holders are basically partial lifting functions, and the bottom of the cup holder cannot be completely raised to the surface, which still has some shortcomings. Therefore, based on the above problems, the present invention further studies and designs the cup holder structure in the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a pull-rope type lifting cup holder, which can well realize the lifting and positioning of the cup holder through a pull rope and a positioning mechanism, is easy to use, and has a flat surface after lifting.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention is solved by the following technical solutions.

[0007] A pull-cord type lifting cup holder comprises an upper edge, a frame body and a base, wherein the upper edge, the frame body and the base constitute a cup placement cavity; further comprising: a lifting platform, which is placed in the cup placement cavity and can be lifted up and down; a pull-cord assembly, comprising a coil spring device fixed on the lifting platform, a pull-cord is led out of the coil spring device, one end of the pull-cord is connected to the coil spring device, and the other end is fixed to a pull-cord fixing position; a locking assembly, comprising a protruding piece arranged on the lifting platform and a retractable movable piece arranged on the base, wherein a protrusion which can clamp the protruding piece is arranged on the movable piece; the movable piece is abutted against an elastic piece; an unlocking assembly, comprising a linkage rod acting on the movable piece and an operating piece controlling the linkage rod, wherein the operating piece controls the linkage rod to act on the movable piece to unlock the movable piece.

[0008] The lifting cup holder in the present application adopts a tensile structure. When not in use, the lifting platform is at the top under the action of the coil spring device and the pull rope, which is almost at the upper edge. The surface is flat and objects can be placed. When you need to place a cup, put the cup on the lifting platform, then press it down, and the cup moves down together with the lifting platform. During the downward movement of the lifting platform, the pull rope is pulled out of the coil spring device and is in a stretched state, and is subject to the restoring force of the coil spring device. When the lifting platform is pressed to the lowest end, the locking assembly takes effect, and the movable part clamps the protruding part to fix the lifting platform. After use, you can press the operating part so that the linkage rod acts on the movable part to unlock the movable part. At this time, the lifting platform will automatically rise under the action of the pull rope until it is almost flush with the upper edge.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the coil spring device is fixed to the bottom of the lifting platform, and the pull rope is fixed to the pull rope fixing position after passing through the perforation. In this structure, the pull rope fixing position is set at the upper part, such as on the upper edge, so that the pull rope acts on the lifting platform to make the lifting platform have a tendency to rise.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the operating member and the linkage rod are matched with each other on an inclined surface, and when the operating member is pressed, the linkage rod is pressed down and the movable member is driven to unlock; the operating member is abutted against the second elastic member. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient, and unlocking can be achieved by pressing the operating member.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a rotatable gear is provided on the side of the lifting platform, and the gear is meshed with a rack provided in the cup placement cavity. In this structure, the lifting platform is damped when rising and falling by means of tooth meshing, so that the lifting platform will not rise or fall too fast.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the frame is provided with a clamp, which is held in a tendency to face the cup placement cavity by the elastic force of the third elastic member, and the frame is provided with a side hole for the clamp to partially penetrate. In this structure, the clamp is used to clamp the cup placed in the cup holder so that the cup is placed stably; and the clamp can be squeezed within a certain range, so it can adapt to cups of different diameters.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the clamp is movably mounted on a mounting seat on the outer wall of the frame through a rotating shaft thereon; one end of the third elastic member is fixed on the base. The structure is simple and the assembly is convenient.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the frame is provided with guide grooves arranged up and down, and the lifting platform is provided with guide blocks placed in the guide grooves. This structure enables the lifting platform to have good guiding performance during the lifting process and will not go off track.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, a limiting member, such as a limiting ring, is provided at the opening of the upper edge to prevent the lifting platform from falling out.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, a cushion block is provided on the upper surface of the lifting platform to achieve shock absorption, buffering and noise reduction effects.
