[0002] The top armrest is an important functional component inside the car. It is used to provide a support point for the hands of the occupants when the vehicle is in emergency braking or turning. Its main structural principle is that the armrest is connected to the body through bolts. When necessary, the occupants can hold the armrest to maintain body balance. With the improvement of the overall quality of the car interior, the appearance of the armrest is becoming more and more important while retaining its functionality, and higher requirements are placed on its appearance. For example, the gap and decoration need to be considered to meet more demanding goals, so a better appearance effect needs to be achieved in structure.

[0003] The return spring of the existing armrest is exposed and can be seen from directly below the armrest. Since the return spring is a metal part, the surface treatment is inconsistent with the appearance of the armrest plastic or fabric, which reduces the quality of the entire vehicle interior.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the present invention provides a vehicle interior top armrest, comprising an armrest body 100, a base 200 and a spring assembly 300. The armrest body 100 is provided with a first connection portion 110 at its end; the base 200 is provided with a second connection portion 210; the spring assembly 300 comprises a sheath body 310, a return spring 320 and a sheath end cover 330, one end of the sheath body 310 is provided with a connection hole 311, the other end of the sheath body 310 is provided with a mounting hole 312, the return spring 320 is provided in the sheath body 310, the first connection portion 110 passes through the connection hole 311 and is connected to one end of the return spring 320, the sheath end cover 330 is provided on one end of the sheath body 310 with the mounting hole 312, one end of the sheath end cover 330 is connected to one end of the return spring 320 away from the first connection portion 110, and the other end of the sheath end cover 330 is connected to the second connection portion 210.

[0028] The vehicle interior top armrest provided by the present invention is provided with a sheath body 310 and a sheath end cover 330, a return spring 320 is provided in the sheath body 310, and then the sheath end cover 330 is covered on the end of the sheath body 310, so that the return spring 320 is blocked by the sheath body 310, and the return spring 320 cannot be seen from directly below the armrest body 100, thereby improving the quality of the entire vehicle interior. The base 200 is installed on the vehicle interior top, the first connecting portion 110 of the armrest body 100 is connected to one end of the return spring 320 through the connecting hole 311 of the sheath body 310, and the end of the sheath end cover 330 is connected to the second connecting portion 210, so that the first connecting portion 110 is rotatably connected to the second connecting portion 210 through the spring assembly 300.

[0029] When in use, the person in the vehicle holds the armrest body 100, and the armrest body 100 drives the first connection part 110 to rotate relative to the base 200 to overcome the elastic force of the return spring 320; when use is over, the person in the vehicle releases the armrest body 100, and the return spring 320 drives the first connection part 110 to rotate and return to the base 200 under the action of the elastic force, and the first connection part 110 drives the armrest body 100 to return to the original position.

[0030] The base 200 is provided with a connecting member 220, and the base 200 is connected to the roof inside the vehicle through the connecting member 220. The connecting member 220 can be, but is not limited to, a bolt.

[0031] There are two first connection parts 110, two bases 200, and each first connection part 110 corresponds to one base 200. There can be two second connection parts 210 on each base 200, and the spring assembly 300 is located between the two second connection parts 210, one of the second connection parts 210 is connected to the end of the sheath end cover 330, and the other second connection part 210 is not connected to the end of the sheath end cover 330, and the second connection part 210 not connected to the end of the sheath end cover 330 is provided with a through hole, which is communicated with the connection hole 311.

[0032] In some embodiments, the first connection portion 110 is provided with a rotating shaft, which passes through the connection hole 311 and is rotatably connected to the connection hole 311, and the first connection portion 110 is connected to one end of the return spring 320 through the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft can be fixedly connected to the end of the return spring 320, or can be clamped to the end of the return spring 320.

[0033] The end of the sheath end cover 330 close to the sheath body 310 is provided with a connecting column 331, and the connecting column 331 is provided with a slot 332, and the end of the return spring 320 away from the first connection part 110 is engaged with the slot 332. By providing the connecting column 331 with the slot 332, the end of the return spring 320 is connected to the sheath end cover 330, which is convenient for connecting the sheath end cover 330 with the return spring 320, and prevents the end of the return spring 320 away from the first connection part 110 from deflecting relative to the sheath end cover 330. When the sheath end cover 330 is installed at the end of the sheath body 310, the connecting column 331 passes through the mounting hole 312 and extends into the sheath body 310.

[0034] The second connection portion 210 is provided with a groove, and the end of the sheath end cover 330 away from the sheath body 310 is provided with a protrusion 333, and the protrusion 333 cooperates with the groove. When installing, the protrusion 333 is inserted into the groove, and the groove limits the circumferential movement of the protrusion 333. The height of the protrusion 333 is greater than the depth of the groove, so that after the protrusion 333 is inserted into the groove, the groove can limit the axial direction of the protrusion 333, thereby preventing the sheath end cover 330 from axial deviation.

[0035] An annular groove 313 is provided on the side wall of one end of the sheath body 310 near the mounting hole 312, and a clamping block 334 is provided on the inner wall of the sheath end cover 330, and the clamping block 334 cooperates with the annular groove 313. By providing the annular groove 313 and the clamping block 334, the clamping block 334 can be clamped into the annular groove 313. When the sheath end cover 330 is installed at the end of the sheath body 310, the clamping block 334 is clamped into the annular groove 313, so that the sheath end cover 330 can be stabilized at the end of the sheath body 310, and the sheath end cover 330 is prevented from being separated from the sheath body 310.

[0036] In this embodiment, the armrest body 100, the base 200, the sheath body 310 and the sheath end cap 330 are all made of plastic. The armrest body 100, the base 200, the sheath body 310 and the sheath end cap 330 have the same color, or the base 200, the sheath body 310 and the sheath end cap 330 have the same color, or the armrest body 100, the sheath body 310 and the sheath end cap 330 have the same color.
