Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of vehicle cup holders, specifically a vehicle-mounted liftable cup holder. Background Technology

[0002] The center armrest cup holder is a design feature in vehicles. As the name suggests, it's placed on the center armrest and its main function is to hold cups. It's a basic feature in many car models. Although it's a simple design, the center armrest cup holder brings great convenience to our lives. It eliminates the need to hold a cup in the left hand and shift gears with the right, making driving or riding smoother. The main function of a car cup holder is to secure and support beverage containers, preventing them from shaking or tipping over while the vehicle is in motion, thus maintaining a clean and safe interior environment. Car cup holders are widely used in various types of vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, MPVs, and RVs. They not only provide convenience for the driver but also increase the flexibility and efficiency of in-vehicle storage space.

[0003] Traditional car cup holders, when used to hold water cups, can cause water to spill onto the center armrest due to inertia when the vehicle accelerates or stops, potentially wetting the vehicle or even seeping into the interior and affecting the internal electrical system. Furthermore, during vehicle operation, bumps can cause the cup holder to vibrate, leading to water spillage and making the cup holder unstable.

[0004] Therefore, based on the above problems, we invented a car-mounted lifting cup holder. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a vehicle-mounted liftable cup holder to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a vehicle-mounted lifting cup holder, comprising,

[0007] A placement hole is provided at the central armrest, a cup holder is provided in the placement hole, a sliding cylinder is slidably connected to the cup holder, and a coaster is placed in the sliding cylinder;

[0008] A tilting mechanism for tilting a water cup includes two fixed blocks that slide through the cup cylinder. A fixed sleeve is slidably fitted around each fixed block and fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cup cylinder. The bottom of the fixed sleeve is fixedly connected to the fixed block by a spring. Two through holes are provided through the cup cylinder, and a first rotating shaft and a second rotating shaft are actively connected to the two through holes. The first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft located in the two through holes are connected by a first transmission mechanism. The fixed blocks have slots. The upper ends of the two first rotating shafts rotatably pass through the cup cylinder and extend into the slots. A gear is coaxially fixedly connected to the upper end of the first rotating shaft. The slots have tooth grooves that mesh with the gears. The sliding cylinder has a sliding hole. A limit ring is slidably connected in the sliding hole. A push cylinder is slidably connected in the limit ring. The push cylinder and the second rotating shaft are connected by a second transmission mechanism.

[0009] A lifting mechanism is used to lift the slide cylinder. The lifting mechanism includes a bidirectional threaded rod that is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cup cylinder. Two threaded blocks are threaded on the outer side of the bidirectional threaded rod. Both threaded blocks are slidably connected to the bottom of the cup cylinder. A deflector plate is rotatably connected to the upper end of each of the two threaded blocks. The upper end of each of the two deflector plates is rotatably connected to the bottom of the slide cylinder. A motor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cup cylinder. The drive shaft of the motor is coaxially fixedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod.

[0010] A stabilizing mechanism is used to maintain the stability of the cup. The stabilizing mechanism includes a base plate on which the cup is mounted. An inner ring and an outer ring are sequentially fitted around the base plate. The front and rear sides of the inner wall of the inner ring are rotatably connected to the base plate via a first connecting shaft. The left and right sides of the outer wall of the inner ring are rotatably connected to the outer ring via a second connecting shaft. Two mounting plates are installed on the inner side of the central armrest. The outer ring is fixedly installed to the mounting plates.

[0011] Furthermore, the first transmission mechanism includes a first pulley and a second pulley. The first pulley is coaxially and fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft, and the second rotating shaft is coaxially and fixedly connected to the second pulley. The first pulley and the second pulley are connected by a synchronous belt drive.

[0012] Furthermore, the second transmission mechanism includes a frame disposed in a through hole, the frame being fixedly connected to a limiting ring, the second rotating shaft passing through the frame, a threaded push rod disposed inside the frame, the threaded push rod being connected to the second rotating shaft via a bevel gear set, and one end of the threaded push rod rotating through the frame and threadedly connected to the push cylinder.

[0013] Furthermore, the bevel gear set includes a first bevel gear and a second bevel gear that mesh with each other, a sliding sleeve is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the second rotating shaft, the first bevel gear is coaxially and fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve, and the second bevel gear is coaxially and fixedly connected to the threaded push rod.

[0014] Furthermore, both threaded blocks are provided with threaded holes that match the bidirectional threaded rod, and the threads in the two threaded holes have opposite directions.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner bottom of the slide cylinder is a concave arc surface, and the bottom of the coaster is a convex arc surface, with the slide cylinder matching the coaster.

[0016] Furthermore, the coaster is embedded with a heating element, and a point-position water immersion sensor is installed at the bottom of the coaster. The point-position water immersion sensor is electrically connected to the heating element.

[0017] Furthermore, the placement hole and the cup are connected by a corrugated soft pad.

[0018] Furthermore, the fixing block is located in an arc shape at one end inside the cup, and the fixing block is made of soft rubber material.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a vehicle-mounted liftable cup holder, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. This vehicle-mounted lifting cup holder is equipped with a tilting mechanism. When the vehicle accelerates or decelerates, the cup will press against the fixed block due to its own inertia. The fixed block moves, and during the movement, it drives the gear to rotate. The gear drives the first rotating shaft to rotate, and the first rotating shaft drives the second rotating shaft to rotate. The second rotating shaft drives the threaded push rod to rotate through the sliding sleeve. The threaded push rod drives the push cylinder to move, and the push cylinder pushes the cup pad to shift at the bottom of the sliding cylinder. The cup pad causes the lower side of the cup to shift, so that the downward shift of the lower side of the cup is in the same direction as the inertia of the water. This can raise the cup opening side and prevent water from spilling out of the cup. It can effectively prevent water from spilling out of the cup when the vehicle accelerates or decelerates.

[0021] 2. This vehicle-mounted lifting cup holder is equipped with a lifting mechanism and a stabilizing mechanism. When the vehicle starts, the motor drives the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate, which in turn drives two threaded blocks to move relative to each other. The two threaded blocks drive the slide cylinder to descend through two deflection plates, and the slide cylinder drives the cup to descend, thus placing the cup completely inside the cup holder. This prevents water from spilling onto the center armrest due to severe vehicle bumps, ensuring that water only spills into the slide cylinder and avoids disturbing the vehicle. A point-type water immersion sensor detects the spillage, and a heating plate dries the spilled water. Furthermore, when the vehicle is bumpy, the rotation of the inner ring and the second connecting shaft slows down the lateral swaying of the cup holder. Similarly, when the vehicle is bumpy forward and backward, the rotation of the base plate and the first connecting shaft slows down the forward and backward swaying of the cup holder, thus stabilizing the cup inside.

[0022] When placing a water cup, this invention can effectively prevent water from spilling out during vehicle acceleration and deceleration. Moreover, it keeps the water cup stable when the vehicle is bumpy and can dry any spilled water, thus avoiding interference with the vehicle. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] As described in the background section, there are shortcomings in the existing technology. In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application proposes a vehicle-mounted lifting cup holder.

[0035] like Figure 1-9 As shown, a car-mounted liftable cup holder includes,

[0036] A placement hole is provided at the center armrest, and a cup holder 1 is placed inside the placement hole. A sliding cylinder 2 is slidably connected inside the cup holder 1. It should be noted that the bottom of the sliding cylinder 2 is a concave arc surface, and the bottom of the coaster 3 is a convex arc surface. The sliding cylinder 2 and the coaster 3 are matched, and the coaster 3 is placed inside the sliding cylinder 2. It should be noted that an electric heating element 38 is embedded in the coaster 3, and a point-position water immersion sensor is installed at the bottom of the coaster 3. The point-position water immersion sensor is electrically connected to the electric heating element 38. It should be noted that the placement hole and the cup holder 1 are connected by a corrugated soft pad 39.

[0037] With the above-mentioned technical features, when water from the cup is poured into the slide cylinder 2, the point-type water immersion sensor detects the presence of water. At this time, the slide cylinder 2 can be dried by heating with the heating element 38.

[0038] To prevent water from spilling from the cup during vehicle acceleration and deceleration, a tilting mechanism 4 is installed to tilt the cup. The tilting mechanism 4 includes two sliding fixing blocks 5 that penetrate the cup cylinder 1. It should be noted that the fixing block 5 is arc-shaped at one end inside the cup cylinder 1. The fixing block 5 is made of soft rubber. A fixing sleeve 6 is slidably fitted around the fixing block 5 and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cup cylinder 1. The bottom of the fixing sleeve 6 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 5 by a spring 7. Two through holes 8 are provided through the cup cylinder 1. The two through holes 8 are actively... A first rotating shaft 9 and a second rotating shaft 10 are connected. The first rotating shaft 9 and the second rotating shaft 10, which are located in two through holes 8, are connected by a first transmission mechanism 11. Specifically, the first transmission mechanism 11 includes a first pulley 30 and a second pulley 31. The first pulley 30 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 9, and the second rotating shaft 10 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the second pulley 31. The first pulley 30 and the second pulley 31 are connected by a synchronous belt. The fixing block 5 is provided with a slot 12. The upper ends of the two first rotating shafts 9 rotate through the cup cylinder 1 and extend into the slot 12.

[0039] In this invention, a gear 13 is coaxially fixedly connected to the upper end of the first rotating shaft 9. A toothed groove is provided in the slot 12 to mesh with the gear 13. A sliding hole 14 is provided on the sliding cylinder 2, and a limiting ring 15 is slidably connected within the sliding hole 14. A push cylinder 16 is slidably connected within the limiting ring 15. The push cylinder 16 and the second rotating shaft 10 are connected via a second transmission mechanism 17. Notably, the second transmission mechanism 17 includes a frame 32 disposed within a through hole 8. The frame 32 is fixedly connected to the limiting ring 15, and the second rotating shaft 10 passes through the frame 32. 2. The frame 32 is provided with a threaded push rod 33. The threaded push rod 33 is connected to the second rotating shaft 10 through a bevel gear set 34. One end of the threaded push rod 33 rotates through the frame 32 and is threadedly connected to the push cylinder 16. It should be noted that the bevel gear set 34 includes a first bevel gear 35 and a second bevel gear 36 that mesh with each other. A sliding sleeve 37 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the second rotating shaft 10. The first bevel gear 35 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 37, and the second bevel gear 36 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the threaded push rod 33.

[0040] Through the above technical features, when the vehicle accelerates or decelerates, the cup will press against the fixed block 5 due to its own inertia. The fixed block 5 moves, and during the movement, the fixed block 5 drives the gear 13 to rotate. The gear 13 drives the first rotating shaft 9 to rotate, and the first rotating shaft 9 drives the second rotating shaft 10 to rotate. The second rotating shaft 10 drives the threaded push rod 33 to rotate through the sliding sleeve 37. The threaded push rod 33 drives the push cylinder 16 to move, and the push cylinder 16 pushes the cup pad 3 to shift at the bottom of the sliding cylinder 2. The cup pad 3 causes the lower side of the cup to shift, so that the downward shift direction of the lower side of the cup is the same as the inertial direction of the water. This can raise the cup opening side and prevent water from spilling out of the cup.

[0041] To prevent water from spilling onto the center armrest after the vehicle starts, a lifting mechanism 18 is installed to raise and lower the slide cylinder 2. The lifting mechanism 18 includes a bidirectional threaded rod 19 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cup cylinder 1. Two threaded blocks 20 are threaded on the outer thread of the bidirectional threaded rod 19. Furthermore, each of the two threaded blocks 20 has a threaded hole that matches the bidirectional threaded rod 19. The threads in the two threaded holes rotate in opposite directions. Both threaded blocks 20 are slidably connected to the bottom of the cup cylinder 1. A deflector plate 21 is rotatably connected to the upper end of each of the two threaded blocks 20. The upper end of each of the two deflector plates 21 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the slide cylinder 2. A motor 22 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cup cylinder 1. The drive shaft of the motor 22 is coaxially fixedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 19.

[0042] With the above technical features, when the vehicle starts, the motor 22 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 19 to rotate, the bidirectional threaded rod 19 drives the two threaded blocks 20 to move relative to each other, the two threaded blocks 20 drive the slide cylinder 2 to descend through the two deflection plates 21, the slide cylinder 2 drives the water cup to descend, so that the water cup can be completely placed inside the cup cylinder 1, avoiding the water in the cup from splashing onto the central armrest due to the violent bumps of the vehicle.

[0043] When the vehicle bumps, the water cup will also bounce. In order to keep the water cup stable during the vehicle's movement, a stabilizing mechanism 23 is set up to keep the cup 1 stable. The stabilizing mechanism 23 includes a base plate 24, on which the cup 1 is installed. An inner ring 25 and an outer ring 26 are sequentially fitted around the base plate 24. The front and rear sides of the inner wall of the inner ring 25 are rotatably connected to the base plate 24 through a first connecting shaft 27. The left and right sides of the outer wall of the inner ring 25 are rotatably connected to the outer ring 26 through a second connecting shaft 28. Two mounting plates 29 are installed on the inner side of the central armrest, and the outer ring 26 is fixedly installed to the mounting plates 29.

[0044] Through the above technical features, when the vehicle moves left and right, the cup holder 1 slows down the left and right swaying amplitude under the rotation of the inner ring 25 and the second connecting shaft 28. Similarly, when the vehicle moves back and forth, the cup holder 1 slows down the back and forth swaying amplitude under the rotation of the base plate 24 and the first connecting shaft 27, thus stabilizing the water cup inside the cup holder.

[0045] Working principle:

[0046] 1) When the vehicle starts, the motor 22 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 19 to rotate. The bidirectional threaded rod 19 drives the two threaded blocks 20 to move relative to each other. The two threaded blocks 20 drive the slide cylinder 2 to descend through the two deflection plates 21. The slide cylinder 2 drives the water cup to descend, so that the water cup can be completely placed inside the cup cylinder 1, avoiding the water in the cup from splashing onto the central armrest due to the violent bumps of the vehicle.

[0047] 2) When the vehicle is bumpy, the cup holder 1 slows down the left and right swaying amplitude under the rotation of the inner ring 25 and the second connecting shaft 28. Similarly, when the vehicle is bumpy in front and behind, the cup holder 1 slows down the back and forth swaying amplitude under the rotation of the base plate 24 and the first connecting shaft 27, so that the water cup inside the cup holder can be placed stably.

[0048] 3) When the vehicle accelerates and decelerates, the cup will press against the fixed block 5 due to its own inertia. The fixed block 5 moves, and during the movement, the fixed block 5 drives the gear 13 to rotate. The gear 13 drives the first rotating shaft 9 to rotate, and the first rotating shaft 9 drives the second rotating shaft 10 to rotate. The second rotating shaft 10 drives the threaded push rod 33 to rotate through the sliding sleeve 37. The threaded push rod 33 drives the push cylinder 16 to move. The push cylinder 16 pushes the coaster 3 to shift at the bottom of the sliding cylinder 2. The coaster 3 causes the lower side of the cup to shift, so that the downward shift direction of the lower side of the cup is the same as the inertial direction of the water. This can raise the cup opening side and prevent water from spilling out of the cup.

[0049] 4) When water from the cup is spilled into the slide cylinder 2, the point-type water immersion sensor detects the presence of water. At this time, the slide cylinder 2 is dried by heating through the heating element 38.

[0050] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
