[0040] As Figure 1-7 shown, the present invention provides an integrated lower instrument panel, including a lower instrument panel 1 and a mounting base assembly 2;

[0041] At the front end of the bottom of the lower instrument panel, a front fixing claw 11 is provided, and at the rear end of the bottom, a rear fixing wire 12 is provided;

[0042] The mounting base assembly 2 includes a base 22 having a slide rail 21 and a frame 23 slidably connected to the slide rail 21;

[0043] From the left end to the right end of the frame 23, a claw connection device 24 that cooperates with the front fixing claw 11 for connection, a quick-release lock motor 24 for unlocking and locking a quick-release lock 26, a slide motor 25 for driving the frame 23 to slide along the slide rail 21, and a quick-release lock 26 for unlocking and locking the rear fixing wire 12 are sequentially provided.

[0044] In the present invention, at a position close to the front end of the quick-release lock 26, a sensor trigger piece 271 connected to a sensor 27 is provided, and the sensor 27 is connected to an alarm buzzer 28.

[0045] In the present invention, the front fixing claw 11 is provided with a first card slot 111 and a second card slot 112. The claw connection device 231 includes a first wire 2311 and a second wire 2312. The first wire 2311 and the second wire 2312 are inclined. The first card slot 111 and the second card slot 112 are respectively clamped with the first wire 2311 and the second wire 2312.

[0046] In the present invention, the quick-release lock 26 is a ground hook lock, and the quick-release lock motor 24 is a ground hook lock motor.

[0047] In the present invention, the ground hook lock motor drives the ground hook lock to unlock and lock through an unlocking Cable 241. One end of the unlocking Cable 241 is connected to the output end of the quick-release lock motor 24, and the other end is connected to the low hook lock end of the quick-release lock 26.

[0048] In the present invention, a slide rail stabilizer 211 is provided on the base 22 to ensure the stability of sliding.

[0049] In the present invention, the quick-release lock motor 24, the sliding motor 25 and the sensor 27 are connected to the vehicle body wiring harness terminal 29 through a wiring harness.

[0050] In the present invention, the front-end fixed claw 11 is made of a metal-plastic composite.

[0051] In the present invention, a hard rubber pad adapted to the bottom rear end of the passenger-side instrument panel 1 is provided at the rear end of the frame 23, and the service life of the passenger-side instrument panel 1 is ensured by setting the hard rubber pad.

[0052] In the above structure provided by the present invention, as Figure 5 shown, the front-end fixed claw 11 has a first card slot 111 and a second card slot 112. The claw connecting device 231 is fixed to the left end of the frame 23 by a conventional connection method such as bolts or welding. First steel wire 2311 and second steel wire 2312 are provided on its bracket. The first steel wire 2311 and the second steel wire 2312 are in an inclined state so that the first card slot 111 and the second card slot 112 are respectively engaged with the first steel wire 2311 and the second steel wire 2312; the claw connecting device 231 is a bracket for accommodating the front-end fixed claw 11. The first steel wire 2311 and the second steel wire 2312 are respectively horizontally arranged at the upper end and the lower end of the bracket, and the second steel wire 2312 is located at the right end of the first steel wire 2311, making the two in an inclined state to be adapted to the first card slot 111 and the second card slot 112.

[0053] As Figure 3 and 6 shown, the rear-end fixed steel wire 12 provided at the bottom rear end of the passenger-side instrument panel 1 cooperates with the quick-release lock 26 to achieve locking and unlocking;

[0054] The locking process is as follows: The quick-release lock motor 24 drives the unlocking Cable 241 to open the quick-release lock 26. After the rear-end fixed steel wire 12 is engaged with the quick-release lock 26, the quick-release lock motor 24 drives the unlocking Cable 241 to restore the quick-release lock 26 to its original state for locking;

[0055] By driving the unlocking Cable 241 with the quick-release lock motor 24, the quick-release lock 26 is opened and the rear-end fixed steel wire 12 is disengaged from the quick-release lock 26 to complete the unlocking process.

[0056] Among them, the number of the front-end fixed claws 11 and the rear-end fixed steel wires 12 is preferably two each, and they are oppositely arranged at both ends of the frame 23.

[0057] During the above unlocking process of the present invention, since the quick-release lock motor 24 of the quick-release lock drives the unlocking Cable 241, the cam of the quick-release lock 26 will approach the sensor trigger piece 271, thereby triggering the alarm buzzer 28 to achieve the reminder function. This reminder function can be through an indicator light reminder or through voice reminder; among them, the alarm buzzer 28 is preferably arranged on the outer side wall of the sub-instrument panel 1, and the connection method is preferably bolt connection. Other connection methods are also possible, such as snap connection, etc.

[0058] In the above structure of the present invention, the sliding motor 25 drives the frame 23 to slide on the slide rail 21, realizing the sliding function.

[0059] In the above structure of the present invention, the quick-release lock motor 24, the sliding motor 25, the sensor 27, etc. can all be fixedly connected to the frame 23 by bolts, or other conventional fixed connection methods can be adopted. Examples are not given one by one here.

[0060] Among them, both ends of the unlocking Cable 241 are respectively connected to the quick-release lock motor 24 and the quick-release lock 26 by bolts.

[0061] In the above structure of the present invention, control buttons are arranged on the sub-instrument panel 1 to control the quick-release lock motor 24 and the sliding motor 25, and the one-key unlocking, sliding and quick-release functions are realized through the control buttons.

[0062] The working principle of the above structure provided by the present invention is as follows:

[0063] When the integrated sub-instrument panel is quickly disassembled, press the control button 3 on the sub-instrument panel 1. The quick-release lock motor 24 and the sliding motor 25 are powered on. The quick-release lock motor 24 drives the unlocking Cable 241 to pull to the left, making the cam of the quick-release lock 26 approach the sensor trigger piece 271. At this time, the quick-release lock 26 completes the unlocking process; the sliding motor 25 drives the frame 23 to slide on the slide rail 21, thereby realizing the sliding and unlocking functions.

[0064] It should be noted that the execution order of the above sliding and unlocking is not in sequence, and it is also possible to slide first and then unlock.

[0065] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention; however, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its improved concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
