[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments to facilitate a clear understanding of the present invention, but they do not constitute a limitation to the present invention.
[0030] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the present invention includes an armrest cover and an armrest box panel 11, and a split armrest opening mechanism provided between the armrest cover and the armrest box panel 11. The armrest cover includes two on the left and right sides. The left armrest cover and the right armrest cover are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the armrest box panel 11 through the front rotating shaft 4 and the rear rotating shaft 9. The split armrest opening mechanism includes an opening button 1, a button guide slide 2, a front hook 3, a button conduction plate 7 and a rear hook 10. The front ends of the two opening buttons 1 on the left and right sides are located on the front side of the armrest cover. Externally, the rear ends of the two opening buttons 1 on the left and right sides are respectively connected to the roots of the front hooks 3, the hook part of the front hook 3 is connected to the front section of the armrest cover, the root of the front hook 3 is also fixed to one end of the button conduction plate 7, the other end of the button conduction plate 7 is fixed to the root of the rear hook 10, the hook part of the rear hook 10 is connected to the rear section of the armrest cover, the button guide slide plate 2 is fixed on the armrest cover, and an opening button force spring 5 is provided between the left and right armrest covers and the left and right sides of the armrest box panel 11, and a reset spring 8 is provided between the armrest cover and the button conduction plate 7.
[0031] The armrest cover plate includes an armrest upper cover plate 12 and an armrest lower cover plate 6 , and the armrest upper cover plate 12 is fixedly connected to the armrest lower cover plate 6 .
[0032] The two opening buttons 1 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the front end of the component composed of the armrest upper cover plate 12 and the armrest lower cover plate 6.
[0033] The button guide slide plate 2 is fixed on the armrest lower cover plate 6 and is used for limiting and guiding the opening button 1 and the button conductive plate 7.
[0034] like Figure 8 As shown, the opening button force spring 5 is sleeved on the front rotating shaft 4 , one end of the opening button force spring 5 is connected to the armrest lower cover 6 , and the other end is connected to the armrest box panel 11 .
[0035] like Figure 9 、 Figure 14 As shown, the return spring 8 is sleeved on the guide rod 7 - 1 on the button conductive plate 7 , and the end of the return spring 8 presses against the upper limit platform structure of the armrest lower cover 6 .
