Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile interior decoration, and in particular relates to an automobile armrest with openings on both sides. Background Art

[0002] The car armrest box is an auto part installed between the two front seats. It belongs to the car interior system. Its original design is to facilitate the driver to put his arms when driving fatigue, so as to relieve the sore arms. And there is a deep storage chamber inside the box.

[0003] The automobile armrest boxes on the market are generally opened on one side, and there are fewer armrests that open on the left and right sides. Such armrest boxes can only be opened from one side, which is inconvenient for people sitting in the two front seats to take items inside the armrest box; and the locking rod in the existing automobile armrest box has a large reset operation force, and the locking rod is easy to hit the opponent when closing the armrest box; therefore, the present invention proposes an automobile armrest that opens on both sides to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0004] The invention provides an armrest with openings on both sides of a car, aiming to solve the problems raised by the background technology.

[0005] The present invention is implemented as follows: an automobile armrest with openings on both sides comprises an armrest base and an armrest upper cover assembly;

[0006] The armrest base is arranged below the armrest upper cover assembly, and the armrest base is hingedly connected to the armrest upper cover assembly;

[0007] The armrest cover assembly includes a lower cover plate, wherein a connecting rod 1 and a connecting rod 2 are provided on the lower cover plate, and the connecting rod 1 and the connecting rod 2 are relatively distributed. Both ends of the connecting rod 1 are connected to tilting rods, one of the tilting rods is connected to locking rod 1, and the other of the tilting rods is connected to locking rod 2. One side of the locking rod 1 is connected to button assembly 1 through a linkage wheel 1, and the other side is connected to locking rod 3 through a linkage wheel 2. The locking rod 3 is connected to the connecting rod 2, and one side of the locking rod 2 is connected to button assembly 2 through another linkage wheel 1. Dampers are provided at both ends of the connecting rod 1 and the connecting rod 2, and an opening torsion spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the damper. The damper at one end of the connecting rod 1 close to the button assembly 2 is connected to a metal shaft, and the metal shaft is connected to the locking rod 2. The locking rod 2 is connected to another metal shaft through another linkage wheel 2, and the other metal shaft is connected to the damper on the connecting rod 2, and the locking rod 2 is connected to a transmission rod.

[0008] Preferably, a tension spring is connected to the locking rod, and one end of the tension spring is connected to the lower cover plate.

[0009] Preferably, the second locking rod is connected to another tension spring, and one end of the other tension spring is connected to the lower cover plate.

[0010] Preferably, a tilt bar torsion spring is provided on the tilt bar, and the tilt bar torsion spring is used to drive the tilt bar to reset after rotation.

[0011] Preferably, when the locking rod 1 moves, the transmission rod restricts the movement of the locking rod 2; when the locking rod 2 moves, the transmission rod restricts the movement of the locking rod 1.

[0012] Preferably, the damper is used to maintain a uniform speed during the opening process of the armrest upper cover assembly to prevent the armrest upper cover assembly from swinging back after opening.

[0013] Preferably, when the button assembly 1 needs to be unlocked, pressing the button assembly 1 drives the linkage wheel 1 to rotate, thereby driving the lock rod 1 to move rightward, and then driving the linkage wheel 2 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the linkage wheel 2 rotates to pull the lock rod 3 to move leftward to achieve unlocking. After releasing the button assembly 1, the tilting rod rotates to support the lock rod 1, and the opening torsion spring drives the armrest upper cover assembly to rotate and open;

[0014] When the button assembly 1 needs to be locked, after pressing the armrest upper cover assembly, the tilting rod contacts the armrest base and rotates, the tension spring drives the locking rod 1 to move to the left, and the linkage wheel 2 drives the locking rod 3 to move to the right to achieve locking. At this time, the armrest upper cover assembly and the armrest base are in a closed state.

[0015] Preferably, when the button assembly 2 needs to be unlocked, pressing the button assembly 2 drives the linkage wheel 1 to rotate, thereby driving the lock rod 2 to move rightward, and then driving the linkage wheel 2 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the linkage wheel 2 rotates to pull the metal shaft to move leftward to achieve unlocking. After releasing the button assembly 2, the tilting rod rotates to support the lock rod 2, and the opening torsion spring drives the armrest upper cover assembly to rotate and open;

[0016] When the button assembly 2 needs to be locked, after pressing the armrest upper cover assembly, the tilting rod contacts the armrest base and rotates, the tension spring drives the locking rod 2 to move to the left, and the linkage wheel 2 drives the metal shaft to move to the right to achieve locking. At this time, the armrest upper cover assembly and the armrest base are in a closed state.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The armrest box of the present invention can be opened on both sides by pressing button assembly one and button assembly two, and the opening of button assembly one and button assembly two does not affect each other, which is convenient for people on the two front seats to take out items inside the armrest box without having to use their hands to operate, thereby increasing the experience; the armrest box can be opened on the left or right side through a connecting rod structure, the locking rod of the armrest is designed at the position of the rotating axis, and the resetting operation force of the locking rod is small, so the locking rod is unlikely to hit the opponent when closing the armrest.

[0043] See also Figures 4 to 6 , realize the left opening function of the armrest box: press the button assembly 2 4 to move upward to drive the linkage wheel 10 to rotate, thereby driving the lock rod 2 12 to move to the right, wherein the moving stroke is 5mm, and then drives the linkage wheel 2 11 to rotate clockwise, at this time the linkage wheel 2 11 rotates to pull the metal shaft 13 to move to the left, wherein the moving stroke is also 5mm, thereby realizing unlocking; after releasing the button assembly 2 4, the tilting rod 7 rotates to hold the lock rod 2 12, at this time, in order to prevent the lock rod 2 12 from resetting prematurely, causing the lock rod 2 12 and the metal shaft 13 to affect the locking function of the armrest box; open the torsion spring 6 to drive the armrest cover assembly 2 to rotate and open, and during the opening process, the damper 18 keeps the armrest cover assembly 2 at a uniform speed during the opening process, to prevent the armrest cover assembly 2 from swinging back after opening to the limit angle (i.e. when it is opened to the maximum angle), thereby affecting the texture;

[0044] See also Figures 4 to 6 , realize the left closing function of the handrail box: press the handrail upper cover assembly 2 to rotate, at this time it rotates 87°, and then the tilting rod 7 contacts the handrail base 1 to rotate, at this time it rotates more than 10°, then the tension spring 9 drives the lock rod 12 to move to the left, the moving stroke is 5mm, and then the linkage wheel 11 drives the metal shaft 13 to move to the right, the moving stroke is also 5mm, so as to achieve locking, at this time the handrail upper cover assembly 2 and the handrail base 1 are in a closed state;

[0045] Right side error: see Figure 6 When the lock rod 12 moves to the right, the moving stroke is 5 mm, and the lock rod 12 drives the transmission rod 16 to move upward, thereby restricting the lock rod 18. At this time, the lock rod 18 cannot move, thereby achieving the purpose of avoiding misoperation on the right.
