[0028] The descriptions of the following embodiments refer to the accompanying drawings to exemplify specific embodiments in which the present invention can be implemented.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a screen retraction mechanism, including a lifting mechanism 1, a connecting plate 2, a force-bearing plate 3, and a thrust device 4. The entire screen retraction mechanism is located inside an instrument panel housing 5. The connecting plate 2 includes a connecting plate body 21, and a first connecting portion 22 and a second connecting portion 23 respectively arranged on opposite sides of the connecting plate body 21. The first connecting portion 22 is connected to the lifting mechanism 1, and the second connecting portion 23 is used to connect to the central control display screen 6. The lifting mechanism 1 drives the connecting plate 2 to lift and expose or lower and retract the central control display screen 6, as Figure 3 shown. The force-bearing plate 3 is arranged on the central control display screen 6. The force-bearing plate 3 can be an integrated structure with the housing of the central control display screen 6. Preferably, the force-bearing plate 3 is an independent structural member detachably connected to the central control display screen 6 to reduce the processing difficulty of the central control display screen 6. Optionally, the force-bearing plate 3 is located at the lower edge of the central control display screen 6 and protrudes forward, or can also protrude backward, which is not limited in the present invention. The thrust device 4 is arranged opposite to the force-bearing plate 3. When a collision accident occurs to the vehicle, as Figure 4 shown, the thrust device 4 applies a downward impact force to the force-bearing plate 3, and this impact force is greater than the impact force limit that the second connecting portion 23 can bear, causing the second connecting portion 23 to be damaged. The central control display screen 6 is retracted downward into the interior of the instrument panel housing 5. At this time, the airbag 7 pops out and is located between the windshield 8 and the instrument panel housing 5.

[0030] The screen retraction mechanism according to the embodiment of the present invention can not only normally lift and retract the central control display screen, but also, when a collision accident occurs to the vehicle, the thrust device applies an impact force to the force-bearing plate to damage the second connecting portion of the connecting plate, so that the central control display screen is retracted into the interior of the instrument panel housing, effectively avoiding the harm caused by the broken and flying central control display screen to the vehicle occupants, and at the same time enabling the airbag to be deployed smoothly.

[0031] The structure and principle of a thrust device 4 are as Figure 5As shown in the figure, it includes a gas generator 41 and a push rod 42. The push rod 42 is connected to the gas generator 41 through a piston 43. A gas generating tablet 44 is accommodated in the sealed space above the piston 43. When the central control display screen 6 is in the lifted normal use state, the end of the push rod 42 abuts against the force receiving plate 3. When a vehicle collision accident occurs, the gas generating tablet 44 in the gas generator 41 is detonated through a lead wire 45, and the push rod 42 moves downward to transmit the impact force to the force receiving plate 3. The central control display screen 6 moves downward and is retracted into the instrument panel housing 5, avoiding the impact on the central control display screen 6 when the airbag 7 is deployed.

[0032] The lifting mechanism 1 can be driven by a threaded structure. For details, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which includes a motor 11 and a screw rod 12 connected to the motor 11. The first connecting portion 22 of the connecting plate 2 includes a protruding portion 221 protruding from one side of the connecting plate body, and a threaded hole 222 provided on the protruding portion 221 and cooperating with the screw rod 12. The second connecting portion 23 of the connecting plate 2 includes a through hole 231 provided on the side of the connecting plate body 21 opposite to the protruding portion 221, and a connecting pin 232 provided in the through hole 231. The central control display screen 6 is fixed to the connecting plate 2 through the connecting pin 232. Preferably, two through holes 231 and two corresponding connecting pins 232 can be provided to increase the connection stability. Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, there are two sets of the lifting mechanism 1 and the connecting plate 2, which are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the central control display screen 6.

[0033] Optionally, the connecting pin 232 is made of a plastic material. Preferably, in order to increase the reliability of the connecting pin 232 being damaged during a vehicle collision accident, a necking portion B can be provided on the connecting pin 232. For details, refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the position of the necking portion B is preferably: after the connecting pin 232 connects the connecting plate 2 and the central control display screen 6, the necking portion B is located between the connecting plate 2 and the central control display screen 6, facilitating the fracture of the connecting pin 232 at the necking portion B during a collision accident.

[0034] Corresponding to the screen recycling mechanism provided in the first embodiment of the present invention, the second embodiment of the present invention also provides an automobile, including the screen recycling mechanism as described above. For its working principle and process, refer to the description of the first embodiment of the present invention above, and details will not be repeated here.

[0035] It can be seen from the above description that compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The screen recycling mechanism of the present invention can not only normally lift and retract the central control display screen, but also, during a vehicle collision accident, the thrust device applies an impact force to the force receiving plate to damage the second connecting portion of the connecting plate, so that the central control display screen is retracted into the interior of the instrument panel housing, effectively avoiding the harm caused by the broken and splashing central control display screen to the vehicle occupants, and at the same time enabling the airbag to be deployed smoothly.

[0036] The above-disclosed are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. Of course, the scope of the rights of the present invention cannot be limited thereby.
