DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] See also Figure 2-Figure 9 , a multi-directionally openable armrest, comprising a storage box 1, a flip cover 2 is rotatably connected to the rear of the upper part of the storage box 1, a fixed frame 12 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the storage box 1, and both left and right ends of the fixed frame 12 are rotatably connected to a rotating frame 11, and the flip cover 2 is fixedly connected between the upper parts of the rotating frame 11. Because the rotating frame 11 can rotate with the fixed frame 12, the flip cover 2 rotates with the storage box 1, and is turned upward with the rear part of the storage box 1 as the rotation point;
[0027] A concave cavity 7 is provided at the front side of the lower end of the flip cover 2, a lock seat 13 is fixed inside the concave cavity 7, a horizontal button 3 is elastically connected to the front of the lock seat 13, a first guide column 15 is fixed in the middle of the rear end of the horizontal button 3, a first return spring 16 is sleeved on the outside of the first guide column 15, the front of the first return spring 16 is in close contact with the rear of the horizontal button 3, and the rear of the first return spring 16 is fixed to the lock seat 13, by pressing the horizontal button 3 backward, the horizontal button 3 drives the first guide column 15 to move backward, and can also squeeze the first return spring 16, and the first return spring 16 is conducive to the horizontal button 3 to return forward;
[0028] A push rod 17 is symmetrically fixed on the left and right sides of the rear end of the horizontal button 3, and a movable arm 18 is symmetrically elastically connected on the left and right sides of the lock seat 13. A second guide column 20 is fixed to the end of the movable arm 18 close to each other, and a second return spring 21 is sleeved on the outside of the second guide column 20. The outer end of the second return spring 21 is tightly attached to the movable arm 18, and the inner end of the second return spring 21 is fixed to the lock seat 13. An inclined block 19 is fixed to the upper end of the movable arm 18. The inclined block 19 is located behind the push rod 17 and is attached to the push rod 17. The side of the push rod 17 close to the inclined block 19 and the side of the inclined block 19 close to the push rod 17 are both inclined surfaces, and their inclined surfaces are attached to each other. A second lock body 22 is fixed to the end of the movable arm 18 away from each other, and guide holes 23 are opened at both ends of the lock seat 13. A lock cavity 28 plugged into the lock seat 13 is provided at the front of the storage box 1. The second lock body 22 passes through the guide hole 23 and is plugged into the inner wall of the lock cavity 28. The inner wall of the lock cavity 28 is provided with lock grooves on the left and right sides. The second lock body 22 is plugged into the lock groove. One side of the lower end of the second lock body 22 is an inclined surface. After pressing the horizontal button 3 backward, the horizontal button 3 will drive the top rod 17 to move backward. At this time, as the inclined surface of the rear of the top rod 17 cooperates with the inclined surface of the inclined block 19 on the movable arm 18, the inclined block 19 is pushed to move inward. At this time, the inclined block 19 drives the movable arm 18 to move inward, and the movable arm 18 drives the second lock body 22 and the second guide column 20 to move synchronously. At this time, the movable arm 18 will squeeze the second reset spring 21. The setting of the second reset spring 21 is conducive to the reset of the movable arm 18. After the second lock body 22 moves inward into the guide hole 23, it can be moved out of the lock groove in the lock cavity 28. At this time, the flip cover 2 and the storage box 1 are in an unlocked state, and then the flip cover 2 can be flipped up, such as Fig. 9 As shown, when the flip cover 2 is closed, the lock body 22 is inserted into the lock cavity 28 through the lock seat 13. During this process, the inclined surface of the second lock body 22 abuts against the lock cavity 28 and moves into the guide hole 23. Then, when the flip cover 2 is closed until the second lock body 22 corresponds to the lock slot, the second return spring 21 is used to insert the second lock body 22 into the lock slot to lock the flip cover 2.
[0029] The left and right sides of the upper part of the flip cover 2 are symmetrically connected to the split cover 4 for rotation, and the left and right sides of the inner wall of the flip cover 2 are both rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 6, one end of the rotating shaft 6 is fixedly connected to the split cover 4, and the other end of the rotating shaft 6 is installed on the outside of the first torsion spring 10, one end of the first torsion spring 10 is fixed to the flip cover 2, and the other end of the first torsion spring 10 is fixed to the surface of the rotating shaft 6, and the two split covers 4 can be opened upward, and the split cover 4 and the flip cover 2 are rotated by the rotating shaft 6. When the two split covers 4 are closed, the rotation of the rotating shaft 6 will drive the first torsion spring 10 to twist, so that the first torsion spring 10 will give the split cover 4 a force to rotate to vertical;
[0030] A vertical button 5 is movably connected to the middle of the upper rear end of the flip cover 2, and a moving seat 14 is fixed at the lower end of the vertical button 5. The moving seat 14 is movably connected to the flip cover 2. A pair of first lock bodies 9 rotatably connected to the flip cover 2 are provided in front of the vertical button 5. A movable shaft 25 is movably provided at the lower part of the first lock body 9. Both ends of the movable shaft 25 are fixed to the flip cover 2. A second torsion spring 26 is provided outside the movable shaft 25. Both ends of the second torsion spring 26 are fixed to the flip cover 2 and the first lock body 9 respectively. The lower part of the moving seat 14 is against the lower part of the first lock body 9. Top blocks 24 are fixed on both sides of the lower part of the moving seat 14. A convex strip 27 is vertically fixed to the rear end of the lower part of the first lock body 9. The lower end of the top block 24 is against the upper end of the convex strip 27. A storage hole 8 is provided in front of the first lock body 9, which is opened on the inner wall of the flip cover 2. The first lock body 9 is plugged into the storage hole 8. By pressing the vertical button downward The first lock body 9 is locked by the second torsion spring 26. Figure 8 As shown, the driver and the front passenger can take and put items through the storage box 1, and when the rear passengers need to put or take items, they can press the horizontal button 3 to open the flap 2, thereby ensuring that the rear passengers can conveniently take and put items through the storage box 1. In this way, two different locking mechanisms are used to control the opening and closing of the flap 2 and the double-door cover 4 respectively, thereby meeting the needs of the driver, the front passenger, and the rear passengers to put and take items from the storage box 1, thereby improving practicality.
