[0047] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 6 The armrest assembly 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention has a simple structure and low installation cost, and can ensure the synchronization of the two clamping rotating shafts 32, improve the use sensitivity of the armrest assembly 100, and ensure the user experience.

[0048] like Figure 1-Figure 6As shown, an armrest assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: an armrest cover 1, an armrest base 2, a clamping assembly 3 and a driving assembly 4.

[0049] The snap-in assembly 3 is installed on the armrest cover 1, and the snap-in assembly 3 includes a movable part 31 and two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32. The two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 are snap-fitted with the armrest base 2 respectively. When the snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 are snap-fitted with the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 rotates with the armrest base 2 through the snap-in rotating shaft parts 32. The driving assembly 4 is used to drive the movable part 31 to move, so that the movable part 31 drives the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 to synchronously snap-fit ​​with or snap-disconnect from the armrest base 2.

[0050] Among them, the armrest assembly 100 is a relatively important component on the vehicle's co-instrument panel. The armrest assembly 100 can be arranged between the driver's seat and the co-driver's seat, and can be used for the driver or the co-driver to place their arms to ensure the riding comfort of the passengers. At the same time, a storage space can be provided inside the armrest assembly 100 to store scattered items inside the vehicle, improve the cleanliness of the vehicle interior, and ensure the riding experience of the passengers.

[0051] Specifically, the armrest assembly 100 is provided with an armrest cover 1 and an armrest base 2. The armrest base 2 is installed above the floor of the vehicle, and the armrest cover 1 is installed on the armrest base 2. The armrest cover 1 is movable relative to the armrest base 2, so that the armrest cover 1 can open or close the armrest base 2. When the armrest cover 1 is opened relative to the armrest base 2, the occupant can place items into the accommodating space through the open mouth of the armrest base 2, and when the items are placed, the armrest cover 1 can be closed, so that the occupant can use the armrest assembly 100 to support the arms, etc., thereby improving the flexibility of use. In actual use, the upper part of the armrest cover 1 can be set to a leather soft bag, etc., to improve the comfort of the occupant.

[0052] Furthermore, the armrest cover 1 is provided with an armrest inner plate 11 and an armrest upper cover 12. The armrest upper cover 12 is installed above the armrest inner plate 11, and together with the armrest inner plate 11, defines an installation space 13. The armrest assembly 100 is also provided with a snap-in component 3. The snap-in component 3 can be installed in the installation space 13 of the armrest cover 1. The snap-in component 3 is provided with a movable part 31 and a snap-in rotating shaft part 32. The snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 are provided in two numbers, and the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 can be snap-fitted with the armrest base 2 respectively, so that the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2 are relatively fixed, so as to avoid the armrest cover 1 being separated from the armrest base 2 due to inertia when the vehicle is driving, and the provision of two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 can improve the installation reliability.

[0053] In addition, the armrest assembly 100 is provided with a driving component 4, and the driving component 4 can be movably installed on the armrest cover 1. The occupant can apply a force to the driving component 4, so that the driving component 4 can drive the movable part 31 to move. The movable part 31 is connected to the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32. When the driving component 4 drives the movable part 31 to move, the movable part 31 can drive the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 to move at the same time, so that the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 can be snap-fitted or snap-disconnected with the armrest base 2 at the same time, so as to ensure the synchronization of the movement of the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32, and the driving force is transmitted to the snap-in rotating shaft part 32 through the movable part 31, so as to avoid the lag of the driving force transmission, so as to improve the sensitivity of the cooperation between the snap-in rotating shaft part 32 and the armrest base 2, and improve the user experience.

[0054] In this way, when the two snap-fit ​​rotating shaft members 32 are snap-fitted with the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 can close the armrest base 2 and be fixed relative to the armrest base 2 to ensure installation reliability. When the occupant applies force to the driving component 4, the driving component 4 can apply driving force to the movable member 31, so that the movable member 31 can drive the two snap-fit ​​rotating shaft members 32 to move, so that the snap-fit ​​rotating shaft member 32 is snap-fitted and separated from the armrest base 2, and then the armrest cover 1 can open the armrest base 2, so that the occupant can place items into the accommodating space, and when the snap-fit ​​rotating shaft member 32 is snap-fitted with the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 can rotate with the armrest base 2 through the snap-fit ​​rotating shaft member 32, so that the snap-fit ​​rotating shaft member 32 can also serve as the rotating shaft between the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2, reducing the setting structure and thus reducing the setting cost.

[0055] In addition, if Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the armrest inner plate 11 is provided with a snap-fit ​​hole 112, the armrest base 2 is provided with a snap-fit ​​hole 21, and when the snap-fit ​​shaft member 32 is snap-fitted with the armrest base 2, the snap-fit ​​shaft member 32 can be sequentially inserted into the snap-fit ​​hole 112 and the snap-fit ​​hole 21, so that the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2 are relatively fixed, and the armrest inner plate 11 is provided with a limiting groove 111, the snap-fit ​​shaft member 32 is provided as a columnar structure, and the snap-fit ​​shaft member 32 can be placed in the limiting groove 111. 11, and moves along the limiting groove 111, the limiting groove 111 is extended along the clamping direction of the clamping shaft member 32, thereby limiting the displacement of the clamping shaft member 32 in directions other than the clamping direction, that is, the degree of freedom of the clamping shaft member 32 is one, thereby ensuring the stability of the clamping shaft member 32 during clamping and separation, and preventing the clamping shaft member 32 from shaking and making abnormal noises in the armrest cover 1 when the vehicle is driving, thereby improving the user experience.

[0056] According to the armrest assembly 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, by using a movable part 31 to drive the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 to synchronously snap-fit ​​with or snap-fit ​​off the armrest base 2, the synchronization of the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 can be improved, the use sensitivity of the armrest assembly 100 can be ensured, and the user experience can be improved. In addition, the snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 and the movable part 31 have simple structures, low setting costs, better use effects, and a wider range of applications.

[0057] In some embodiments, the movable member 31 and the snap-on rotating shaft member 32 are respectively slidably mounted on the armrest cover 1 , and the sliding direction of the movable member 31 intersects with the sliding direction of the snap-on rotating shaft member 32 .

[0058] Specifically, the clamping assembly 3 is provided with a movable member 31 and two clamping rotating shaft members 32. When the movable member 31 slides, it can drive the two clamping rotating shaft members 32 to move together. Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the armrest inner plate 11 is provided with a guide groove 113, and the movable part 31 can be placed in the guide groove 113 and cooperate with the guide groove 113, that is, when the driving component 4 drives the movable part 31, the movable part 31 can slide along the guide groove 113, thereby ensuring the reliability of the sliding trajectory of the movable part 31, and making the degree of freedom of the movable part 31 one, thereby ensuring the stability of the movable part 31 when sliding, and preventing the movable part 31 from shaking and making abnormal noises in the armrest cover 1 when the vehicle is driving, thereby improving the user experience.

[0059] Furthermore, when the movable part 31 slides, it can drive the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 to move, so that the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 can be snap-fitted with or separated from the armrest base 2, that is, the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 need to move toward the armrest base 2 or move away from the armrest base 2, and the sliding direction of the movable part 31 intersects with the sliding direction of the snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32, so that when the movable part 31 slides toward the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32, the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 can slide toward the armrest base 2 to be snap-fitted with the armrest base 2, and when the movable part 31 slides away from the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32, the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 can slide away from the armrest base 2 to be snap-fitted with and separated from the armrest base 2. The structure is simple and can ensure the synchronization of the movement of the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32.

[0060] In addition, the sliding direction of the movable part 31 and the sliding direction of the locking shaft part 32 can be set to be perpendicular, so that the force conduction path can be minimized to improve the sensitivity of mutual coordination between various structures, and can reduce the amount of force applied by the occupants to the drive assembly 4, thereby improving the user experience.

[0061] In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 3 further includes two connecting rods 33 , and the two clamping rotating shafts 32 are respectively connected to the movable member 31 via a connecting rod 33 , and the two ends of the connecting rod 33 are respectively rotatably connected to the movable member 31 and the corresponding clamping rotating shaft 32 .

[0062] Specifically, the armrest cover 1 can be engaged with the armrest base 2 through the engaging assembly 3, and as shown in FIG. Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the clamping assembly 3 is also provided with a connecting rod 33, and two connecting rods 33 are provided. One end of the two connecting rods 33 is rotatably connected to the movable part 31, that is, one end of the two connecting rods 33 can be hinged to the movable part 31, and the other ends of the two connecting rods 33 are respectively rotatably connected to the two clamping rotating shaft parts 32, that is, the other ends of the two connecting rods 33 are respectively hinged to the two clamping rotating shaft parts 32, so that the two connecting rods 33 are rotatably connected between the movable part 31 and the corresponding clamping rotating shaft parts 32.

[0063] Furthermore, the connecting rod 33 can be hingedly connected to the movable part 31 and the snap-in rotating shaft part 32, so that a connecting rod mechanism can be formed between the movable part 31, the connecting rod 33 and the snap-in rotating shaft part 32, that is, the movable part 31, the connecting rod 33 and the snap-in rotating shaft part 32 are connected to form a planar mechanism through a low pair, and the moving pair is surface contact, with low pressure and large bearing capacity, which can ensure the operating reliability of the snap-in assembly 3, and when the movable part 31 slides relative to the armrest inner plate 11, the corresponding snap-in rotating shaft parts 32 can be driven to slide through the two connecting rods 33 respectively. The structure is simple and the setting cost is low, which can ensure the operating stability of the two snap-in rotating shaft parts 32, and the working efficiency is high, which can improve the operating sensitivity of the snap-in assembly 3.

[0064] In some embodiments, the two clamping rotating shaft members 32 are symmetrically distributed relative to the sliding direction of the movable member 31 .

[0065] Specifically, the movable member 31 can respectively drive the two clamping rotating shaft members 32 to slide through the two connecting rods 33, and as Figure 2 As shown, the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 are symmetrically distributed relative to the sliding direction of the movable component 31, that is, the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 are distributed on both sides of the movable component 31 along the sliding direction. When the driving component 4 drives the movable component 31 to slide, the sliding component can slide in the direction away from the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 to drive the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 to slide in the direction close to each other, so that the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 can be snap-connected and separated from the armrest base 2 respectively, and when the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 slide in the direction away from each other, the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 can be snap-connected and matched with the armrest base 2 respectively.

[0066] In this way, the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 are symmetrically distributed relative to the sliding direction of the movable component 31, so that the distances between the sliding component and the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 are equal, and thus the sliding distances of the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 when snapping together or snapping apart with the armrest base 2 are equal, and the driving forces transmitted from the movable component 31 to the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 are also equal, and thus the synchronization of the movement of the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 can be ensured, so as to ensure that the two snap-in rotating shaft components 32 can be snap-fitted or snap-disconnected with the armrest base 2 at the same time, thereby ensuring the user experience and the operational reliability of the snap-in assembly 3.

[0067] In some embodiments, the driving assembly 4 includes a pressing member 41, a driving link 42 and a driving block 43. The driving block 43 is rotatably mounted on the armrest cover 1, and the driving link 42 is slidably mounted on the armrest cover 1. The driving link 42 and the movable member 31 are respectively located on both sides of the driving block 43. The pressing member 41 is used to push the driving link 42 to drive the driving block 43 to rotate, and the driving block 43 pushes the movable member 31 to move when rotating.

[0068] Specifically, the driving assembly 4 is installed on the armrest cover 1 and can be used to drive the movable member 31 to slide, and as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the driving assembly 4 is provided with a pressing piece 41, a driving connecting rod 42 and a driving block 43. The armrest cover 1 is provided with a pressing hole. One end of the mounting piece can extend to the pressing hole, and the other end extends toward the inside of the armrest cover 1, so that the occupant can apply a force to the pressing piece 41 from the outside of the armrest cover 1. The other end of the pressing piece 41 can act on the driving connecting rod 42. The armrest inner plate 11 is provided with a groove structure corresponding to the driving connecting rod 42. The pressing piece 41 can push the driving connecting rod 42 to slide along the groove structure to ensure the reliability of the running trajectory of the driving connecting rod 42, and the driving block 43 can be rotatably installed on the armrest inner plate 11, and the driving connecting rod 42 can push the driving block 43 to rotate.

[0069] Furthermore, the driving block 43 can be set to a fan-shaped structure, and the driving connecting rod 42 and the movable part 31 are respectively located on both sides of the driving block 43 along the circumferential direction, so that when the driving connecting rod 42 pushes the driving block 43 to rotate, the driving block 43 can push the movable block to slide, thereby driving the two card-connected rotating shaft parts 32 to slide, which can ensure operational reliability, and the structural arrangement is compact, which can reduce the force conduction path and improve space utilization, so as to reduce the volume of the armrest assembly 100 and improve the lightweight of the vehicle.

[0070] In some embodiments, the pressing direction of the pressing member 41 intersects with the sliding direction of the driving link 42 .

[0071] Specifically, the occupant can apply a force to the pressing member 41 so that the pressing member 41 pushes the driving link 42 to slide, and the driving link 42 can push the driving block 43 to rotate, thereby driving the movable member 31 to slide, and the pressing direction of the pressing member 41 intersects with the sliding direction of the driving link 42, so that the extension directions of the pressing member 41 and the driving link 42 can be set to be different, and the direction of the force can be changed when it is transmitted from the pressing member 41 to the driving link 42, so as to shorten the space occupied by the driving component 4 in the same direction, thereby improving the compactness of the driving component 4.

[0072] Furthermore, the pressing direction of the pressing member 41 and the sliding direction of the driving connecting rod 42 can be set to be perpendicular, so that the force conduction path can be minimized to improve the sensitivity of the mutual coordination between the various structures, and can reduce the amount of force applied by the occupants to the driving component 4, thereby improving the user experience.

[0073] In some embodiments, the driving link 42 is provided with a guiding bevel 421, and the pressing direction of the pressing member 41 and the sliding direction of the driving link 42 both form an angle relative to the guiding bevel 421, wherein the pressing member 41 is pressed against the guiding bevel 421 and is suitable for pushing the driving link 42 to slide through the guiding bevel 421.

[0074] Specifically, the pressing member 41 can push the driving link 42 to slide, so that the driving link 42 pushes the driving block 43 to rotate. Figure 2 As shown, the driving link 42 is provided with a guiding bevel 421, and the guiding bevel 421 is arranged toward the pressing member 41, and the pressing direction of the pressing member 41 forms an angle with respect to the guiding bevel 421. At the same time, the sliding direction of the driving link 42 also forms an angle with respect to the guiding bevel 421. A pressing plane is provided at one end of the pressing member 41 away from the driving link 42. The area of ​​the pressing plane is set to be larger, which is convenient for the occupant to press the pressing member 41. The end of the pressing member 41 close to the driving link 42 can be pressed against the guiding bevel 421.

[0075] In this way, when the occupant applies pressing force to the pressing plane, the pressing force can be transmitted to the other end of the pressing member 41 through the pressing plane, so that the pressing force can act on the guide slope 421, thereby causing the driving link 42 to slide. The structure is simple, and the force transmission path can be changed through the guiding slope 421 so that the movement trajectories of the pressing member 41 and the driving link 42 intersect, thereby saving the space required for the setting of the pressing member 41 and the driving link 42, thereby reducing the space occupied by the armrest assembly 100.

[0076] In some embodiments, the armrest assembly 100 further includes an elastic reset member 6 , which is connected to the driving link 42 and is used to push the driving link 42 to reset in a direction away from the driving block 43 .

[0077] Specifically, the armrest assembly 100 is also provided with an elastic return member 6, which may be provided with a spring and a limit plate 7, etc. The elastic return member 6 is connected to the driving connecting rod 42, that is, the spring is connected to the limit plate 7, and the end of the limit plate 7 close to the driving connecting rod 42 is connected to the driving connecting rod 42. The spring can apply elastic force to the limit plate 7, so that the limit plate 7 is movable relative to the armrest inner plate 11.

[0078] In this way, when the occupant applies pressing force to the pressing piece 41, causing the driving link 42 to slide toward the driving block 43, the limit plate 7 can rotate under the action of the spring, so that the end of the limit plate 7 away from the driving link 42 can extend from the armrest inner plate 11, and the other end can be tilted to support the driving link 42, thereby preventing the driving link 42 from sliding in the direction away from the driving block 43, thereby preventing the movable part 31 and the card-connected rotating shaft part 32 from deviating from the expected sliding direction, thereby ensuring operational reliability.

[0079] In addition, when the armrest cover 1 is closed, the armrest base 2 can be pressed against the end of the limit plate 7 extending out of the armrest inner plate 11, thereby resetting the limit plate 7 to drive the drive connecting rod 42, the drive block 43, the movable part 31 and the card-connecting rotating shaft part 32 to reset. In actual setting, a spring can be arranged in the guide groove 113, and the movable part 31 can be reset under the elastic force of the spring to drive the card-connecting rotating shaft part 32, the drive block 43, the drive connecting rod 42 and the pressing part 41 to reset. At this time, the limit plate 7 is only used to limit and stop the drive connecting rod 42, and the spring corresponding to the limit plate 7 is only used to reset the limit plate 7.

[0080] In some embodiments, the armrest assembly 100 further includes: a rotating component 5 , which is connected to the armrest base 2 , and is used to push the armrest cover 1 to rotate relative to the armrest base 2 around the snap-on rotating shaft 32 .

[0081] Specifically, the armrest assembly 100 is also provided with a rotating assembly 5, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the rotating component 5 is connected to the armrest base 2, that is, the rotating component 5 is arranged outside the armrest cover 1, and a clamping component 3 is arranged inside the armrest cover 1. The clamping shaft member 32 of the clamping component 3 can be clamped or separated with the armrest base 2. When the clamping shaft member 32 is clamped with the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2 are relatively fixed. When the clamping shaft member 32 is clamped and separated from the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 can be separated from the armrest base 2. At this time, the rotating component 5 can push the armrest cover 1 to rotate around the clamping shaft member 32 relative to the armrest base 2, so that the armrest cover 1 can open the armrest base 2, so that the occupant can place or take items, thereby improving the convenience of use.

[0082] In some embodiments, the rotating assembly 5 includes a rotating member 51 and a first elastic member 52. The rotating member 51 is rotatably installed on the armrest base 2. The first elastic member 52 is elastically pressed between the rotating member 51 and the armrest base 2. The clamping shaft member 32 is axially clamped with the rotating member 51 and circumferentially limited. The first elastic member 52 is used to push the rotating member 51 to drive the clamping shaft member 32 and the armrest cover 1 to rotate.

[0083] Specifically, the rotating assembly 5 is installed on the armrest base 2, and as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the rotating component 5 is provided with a rotating member 51 and a first elastic member 52, the first elastic member 52 can be set as a torsion spring, the rotating member 51 is set as an axial structure, and the first elastic member 52 can be sleeved outside the rotating member 51, the rotating member 51 can rotate relative to the armrest base 2, and the end of the first elastic member 52 close to the armrest cover 1 is relatively fixed to the rotating member 51, and the end of the first elastic member 52 away from the armrest cover 1 is relatively fixed to the armrest base 2, so that the first elastic member 52 can be elastically pressed between the rotating member 51 and the armrest base 2, and then when the rotating member 51 rotates relative to the armrest base 2, the first elastic member 52 can be deformed to generate elastic force.

[0084] Furthermore, when the snap-in rotating shaft component 32 extends outside the armrest cover 1 to snap-fit ​​with the armrest base 2, the snap-in rotating shaft component 32 can extend into the rotating member 51 to snap-fit ​​with the rotating member 51 axially, and the outer peripheral wall of the snap-in rotating shaft component 32 is provided with a stop surface 321. When the snap-in rotating shaft component 32 extends into the rotating member 51, the snap-in rotating shaft component 32 can be circumferentially limited with the rotating member 51 by the stop surface 321, thereby fixing the rotating member 51 relative to the armrest base 2. At this time, the first elastic component 52 is deformed along the circumferential direction, and when the snap-in rotating shaft component 32 is snap-fitted and separated from the armrest base 2, the first elastic component 52 is deformed to restore the deformation, and can push the rotating member 51 to drive the other snap-in rotating shaft component 32 and the armrest cover 1 to rotate, so that the armrest cover 1 is opened relative to the armrest base 2. The structure is simple and easy to use.

[0085] In some embodiments, the armrest base 2 is provided with a limit member 53 and a second elastic member 54. The limit member 53 is movably installed on the armrest base 2 along the axial direction and cooperates with the armrest base 2 along the circumferential limit. The second elastic member 54 is used to push the limit member 53 to move to cooperate with the circumferential limit of the rotating member 51, and the clamping shaft member 32 is suitable for pushing the limit member 53 to move to be separated from the circumferential limit of the rotating member 51.

[0086] Specifically, the armrest base 2 is also provided with a limiting member 53 and a second elastic member 54. The limiting member 53 is arranged at one end of the rotating member 51 away from the armrest cover 1, and the limiting member 53 can be partially placed in the rotating member 51, so that the limiting member 53 can be limited in the circumferential direction with the rotating member 51, and the second elastic member 54 is arranged as a torsion spring, one end of the second elastic member 54 is pressed against the armrest base 2, and the other end of the second elastic member 54 is pressed against the limiting member 53, and the second elastic member 54 can apply an elastic force to the limiting member 53 to move toward the rotating member 51, and the armrest base 2 is provided with a matching hole, and part of the limiting member 53 can be placed in the matching hole, so that the limiting member 53 can be matched with the armrest base 2 in the circumferential direction.

[0087] Furthermore, when the limit member 53 is only limited in the circumferential direction with the armrest base 2, the rotating member 51 can be limited in the circumferential direction with the clamping shaft member 32, so that the rotating member 51 can drive the armrest cover 1 to rotate around the clamping shaft member 32 under the action of the first elastic member 52 to open the armrest cover 1. When the limit member 53 is limited in the circumferential direction with the armrest base 2 and the rotating member 51 at the same time, the rotating member 51 is relatively fixed to the armrest base 2. At this time, the clamping shaft member 32 can be pulled out from the rotating member 51 to be clamped and separated from the armrest base 2, and then the armrest cover 1 can be opened. At this time, the limit member 53 can limit the position of the rotating member 51, so that the first elastic member 52 maintains a squeezed state to ensure the clamping of the clamping shaft member 32 next time, thereby ensuring operational reliability.

[0088] In some embodiments, the rotating member 51 is provided with a limit hole extending axially therethrough, the limit member 53 and the clamping rotating shaft member 32 are suitable for respectively cooperating with the limit hole in a circumferential limit manner, the outer peripheral wall of the limit member 53 is provided with a first limit portion, and the inner peripheral wall of the limit hole is provided with a second limit portion, and the first limit portion cooperates with the second limit portion in a circumferential limit manner.

[0089] Specifically, the limit member 53 is located at one end of the rotating member 51 away from the armrest cover 1, and the rotating member 51 is provided with a limit hole which passes through in the axial direction, and the limit member 53 and at least part of the clamping rotating shaft member 32 can extend into the limit hole, and the limit member 53 and the clamping rotating shaft member 32 can both cooperate with the circumferential limit of the limit hole, so that when the limit member 53 or at least part of the clamping rotating shaft member 32 extends into the limit hole, the limit member 53 or the clamping rotating shaft member 32 can be fixed to the rotating member 51 in the circumferential direction.

[0090] Furthermore, a first limiting portion is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the limiting member 53, and the first limiting portion can be set as a limiting surface. A second limiting portion is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the limiting hole, and the second limiting portion can be set as a limiting matching surface. The first limiting portion and the second limiting portion are matched in a circumferential limiting direction, so that when the limiting member 53 extends into the limiting hole, the limiting member 53 can be fixed to the rotating member 51 in the circumferential direction through the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion.

[0091] The outer wall of the limiting member 53 is also provided with a third limiting portion 531, and the third limiting portion 531 can be set as a limiting block protruding radially outward. The armrest base 2 is provided with a fourth limiting portion 22, and the fourth limiting portion 22 can be set as a limiting groove. The third limiting portion 531 cooperates with the fourth limiting portion 22 in the circumferential direction, so that the limiting member 53 can be fixed to the armrest base 2 in the circumferential direction through the third limiting portion 531 and the fourth limiting portion 22.

[0092] In this way, when the engaging shaft component 32 is engaged with the armrest base 2, the engaging shaft component 32 can extend into the rotating component 51, and the end of the engaging shaft component 32 can be pressed against the limiting component 53, so that the limiting component 53 moves in the direction away from the rotating component 51, so that the limiting component 53 can move to be separated from the circumferential limit of the rotating component 51, so that the rotating component 51 can only be engaged with the engaging shaft component 32 in the circumferential direction, so that the first elastic component 52 can push the rotating component 51 to drive the engaging shaft component 32 and the armrest cover 1 to rotate.

[0093] When the engaging rotating shaft member 32 is engaged and separated from the armrest base 2, the engaging rotating shaft member 32 can be pulled out from the rotating member 51. At this time, the limiting member 53 can move toward the rotating member 51 under the action of the elastic force of the second elastic member 54 until the limiting member 53 is placed in the armrest base 2 and the rotating member 51 at the same time, so that the limiting member 53 can limit the relative rotation of the armrest base 2 and the rotating member 51 to ensure the engaging cooperation between the engaging rotating shaft member 32 and the rotating member 51 next time, thereby ensuring the operational reliability.

[0094] In some embodiments, there are two groups of snap-in assemblies 3, which are respectively arranged at the two side edges close to the armrest cover 1, and the snap-in rotating shafts 32 of the two groups of snap-in assemblies 3 are snap-fitted or snap-disconnected relative to the armrest base 2.

[0095] Specifically, the armrest cover 1 can be fixedly connected to the armrest base 2 by the clamping assembly 3, and as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the clip-on components 3 are provided in two groups, and the two groups of clip-on components 3 can be respectively provided at the two side edges close to the armrest cover 1, that is, the two side edges of the armrest cover 1 can be distributed along the front and rear direction of the vehicle, so that the two groups of clip-on components 3 can be respectively provided at the front and rear side edges of the armrest cover 1, and the two side edges of the armrest cover 1 can also be distributed along the transverse direction of the vehicle, so that the two groups of clip-on components 3 can be respectively provided at the left and right side edges of the armrest cover 1. In the present embodiment, the two groups of clip-on components 3 are respectively provided at the left and right side edges of the armrest cover 1.

[0096] Furthermore, the snap-fitting rotating shaft components 32 of the two groups of snap-fitting components 3 can be snap-fitted or snap-disconnected with the armrest base 2 respectively, that is, when the occupant needs to open the left side of the armrest cover 1, the snap-fitting component 3 on the left side can be snap-fitted and disconnected from the armrest base 2. At this time, the snap-fitting rotating shaft component 32 on the right side of the snap-fitting component 3 can be used as a rotation axis, that is, the armrest cover 1 can be rotated relative to the armrest base 2 with the snap-fitting rotating shaft component 32 on the right side as the rotation axis under the action of the rotating component 5 to open the armrest cover 1 from the left side.

[0097] When the passenger needs to open the right side of the armrest cover 1, the right clamping assembly 3 can be clamped and separated from the armrest base 2. At this time, the clamping shaft member 32 of the left clamping assembly 3 can be used as a rotation axis, that is, the armrest cover 1 can be rotated relative to the armrest base 2 with the left clamping shaft member 32 as the rotation axis under the action of the rotating assembly 5 to open the armrest cover 1 from the right side. In this way, both the left and right sides of the armrest cover 1 can be opened, which is convenient for the passengers on the left and right sides of the armrest assembly 100 to operate.

[0098] In actual settings, the two groups of snap-in components 3 can also be respectively arranged at the front and rear edges of the armrest cover 1. The opening method is the same as when the two groups of snap-in components 3 are respectively arranged at the left and right edges of the armrest cover 1, which is convenient for the occupants on the front and rear sides of the armrest assembly 100 to operate, and can meet different usage requirements.

[0099] In some embodiments, when the clamping shaft members 32 of the two sets of clamping assemblies 3 are both clamped and matched with the armrest base 2 , the armrest cover 1 is configured to be fixed relative to the armrest base 2 .

[0100] Specifically, the clamping shaft member 32 of the clamping assembly 3 can extend outside the armrest cover 1 to be clamped and matched with the armrest base 2, so that the armrest cover 1 can be connected to the armrest base 2, and the armrest cover 1 is provided with two groups of clamping assemblies 3, and the two groups of clamping assemblies 3 are respectively arranged at the two side edges close to the armrest cover 1. When the two groups of clamping assemblies 3 are clamped and matched with the armrest base 2, both sides of the armrest cover 1 can be fixedly connected to the armrest base 2, and the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2 can be relatively fixed to ensure the installation reliability of the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2, avoid the armrest cover 1 and the armrest base 2 from being separated when the vehicle is driving, and ensure the user experience of the occupants.

[0101] When the clamping rotating shaft members 32 of the two sets of clamping assemblies 3 are both clamped and separated from the armrest base 2 , the armrest cover 1 is configured to be detachable relative to the armrest base 2 .

[0102] Specifically, the clamping shaft 32 of the clamping assembly 3 can extend into the armrest cover 1 to be clamped and separated from the armrest base 2, so that the armrest cover 1 can be opened relative to the armrest base 2, and the armrest cover 1 is provided with two groups of clamping assemblies 3, and the two groups of clamping assemblies 3 are respectively arranged at the two side edges close to the armrest cover 1. When the two groups of clamping assemblies 3 are clamped and separated from the armrest base 2, both sides of the armrest cover 1 can be relatively separated from the armrest base 2, so that the armrest cover 1 can be removed from the top of the armrest base 2, which is convenient for placing larger items in the armrest base 2, and the armrest cover 1 can also be removed for maintenance, which is convenient for maintenance and saves maintenance time.

[0103] Furthermore, when the snap-in rotating shaft 32 of one group of snap-in assemblies 3 is snap-fitted with the armrest base 2 and the snap-in rotating shaft 32 of another group of snap-in assemblies 3 is snap-connected and separated from the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 is configured to be rotatable relative to the armrest base 2 around the snap-in rotating shaft 32 of one group of snap-in assemblies 3.

[0104] Specifically, the snap-in components 3 are arranged into two groups, and the snap-in rotating shaft components 32 of the two groups of snap-in components 3 can be snap-fitted with or snap-disconnected from the armrest base 2, respectively, and the two groups of snap-in components 3 are respectively arranged at the two side edges close to the armrest cover 1, so that when the snap-in rotating shaft components 32 of one group of snap-in components 3 are snap-fitted with the armrest base 2 and the snap-in rotating shaft components 32 of the other group of snap-in components 3 are snap-disconnected from the armrest base 2, the armrest cover 1 can rotate relative to the armrest base 2 around the snap-in rotating shaft components 32 of one group of snap-in components 3.

[0105] In this way, one of the two groups of snap-in components 3 arranged on both sides of the armrest cover 1 can be used for snap-fitting or snap-separating with the armrest base 2, and the other group of the two groups of snap-in components 3 arranged on both sides of the armrest cover 1 can be used as a rotating shaft, so that the armrest cover 1 can be opened from one side. When the two groups of snap-in components 3 are arranged on the left and right sides of the armrest cover 1, the armrest cover 1 can be opened from the left or right side. When the two groups of snap-in components 3 are arranged on the front and rear sides of the armrest cover 1, the armrest cover 1 can be opened from the front or rear side, which is convenient for the occupants to operate and meets different setting requirements.

[0106] In some embodiments, the armrest cover 1 is also provided with a stop member 8, and the movable parts 31 of the two groups of clamping assemblies 3 are respectively located on both sides of the stop member 8. The movable parts 31 press against the stop member 8 when the driving clamping shaft part 32 moves to the maximum position during the clamping and separation process relative to the armrest base 2.

[0107] Specifically, the armrest cover 1 is also provided with a stop member 8, the stop member 8 can be set as a block structure, the armrest inner plate 11 is provided with a guide groove 113, the stop member 8 can also be set in the guide groove 113, and the stop member 8 can be set to slide along the guide groove 113, and can also be set to be fixed in the middle of the guide groove 113, and the two groups of clamping components 3 are both provided with movable parts 31, the two movable parts 31 are both placed in the guide groove 113, and are respectively located on both sides of the stop member 8, that is, the stop member 8 is arranged between the two movable parts 31.

[0108] Furthermore, when the stop member 8 is set to be fixed in the middle of the guide groove 113, the two movable parts 31 can be pressed against the stop member 8 when the two movable parts 31 are driven to move to the maximum position during the process of engaging and separating the engaging and separating rotating shaft 32 relative to the armrest base 2, thereby limiting the moving path of the engaging and separating rotating shaft 32 to ensure operational reliability. At this time, both sides of the armrest cover 1 can be opened, and when the stop member 8 is set to slide along the guide groove 113, one movable part 31 can push the stop member 8 to press against the other movable part 31 when sliding, thereby allowing the armrest cover 1 to open only one side, thereby improving the setting flexibility and meeting different usage requirements.

[0109] In actual use, Figure 2 As shown, the specific process of opening the armrest cover 1 from the left side is as follows:

[0110] The occupant presses the pressing piece 41 on the left side, and the pressing piece 41 on the left side contacts the guiding inclined surface 421 of the driving link 42 on the left side, pushing the driving link 42 on the left side to slide backward, so as to push the driving block 43 on the left side to rotate counterclockwise, thereby pushing the movable piece 31 on the left side to slide to the right. During the sliding process of the movable piece 31 on the left side, the two connecting rods 33 can respectively drive the two card-connecting rotating shaft pieces 32 on the left side to slide into the armrest cover 1, so as to be card-connected and separated from the armrest base 2. The first elastic piece 52 on the right side can drive the rotating piece 51 on the right side to rotate, and the rotating piece 51 on the right side can drive the card-connecting rotating shaft piece 32 on the right side to rotate, thereby driving the entire armrest cover 1 to flip to the right.

[0111] When the armrest cover 1 is opened from the left side, the specific process of energy storage of the left rotating assembly 5 is as follows:

[0112] When the left-side snap-in rotating shaft component 32 is snap-connected and separated from the armrest base 2, the second elastic component 54 on the left side can push the left-side limiting component 53 to move toward the rotating component 51, so that the left-side limiting component 53 can simultaneously stop at the armrest base 2 and the rotating component 51 along the circumferential direction to limit the rotation of the rotating component 51 on the left side; when the left-side snap-in rotating shaft component 32 extends into the left-side rotating component 51, the left-side snap-in rotating shaft component 32 can be pressed against the limiting component 53, and the limiting component 53 can be pushed away from the rotating component 51 on the left side, so that the limiting component 53 is separated from the rotating component 51, ensuring that the armrest cover 1 can be opened from the right side next time.

[0113] When the armrest cover 1 is opened from the left side, the specific process of preventing the left-side clamping rotating shaft member 32 from accidentally popping out is as follows:

[0114] When the armrest cover 1 is opened from the left side, the limit plate 7 on the left side rotates under the action of the spring, so that the end of the limit plate 7 on the left side away from the left driving link 42 can extend from the armrest inner plate 11, and the other end is tilted to resist the left driving link 42, thereby preventing the left driving link 42 from sliding in the direction away from the left driving block 43; when the armrest cover 1 is closed, the armrest base 2 can press against the end of the limit plate 7 on the left side extending out of the armrest inner plate 11, thereby resetting the limit plate 7 on the left side, thereby driving the left driving link 42, the left driving block 43, the left movable part 31 and the left clamping shaft part 32 to reset.

[0115] When the armrest cover 1 is opened from the left side, the specific process of preventing the pressing member 41 on the right side from being pressed is as follows:

[0116] When the armrest cover 1 is opened from the left side, the movable member 31 on the left side slides to the right to push the stop member 8 to slide to the right. The stop member 8 can abut the movable member 31 on the right side, thereby preventing the movable member 31 on the right side from sliding to the left side, thereby preventing the pressing member 41 on the right side from being pressed.

[0117] When the occupant opens the armrest cover 1 from the right side, the operation process of the internal structure of the armrest assembly 100 is the same as above.

[0118] In some embodiments, an installation space 13 is provided in the armrest cover 1 , the snap-in assembly 3 and the drive assembly 4 are both installed in the installation space 13 , and at least a portion of the drive assembly 4 extends out of the installation space 13 .

[0119] Specifically, the armrest cover 1 is provided with an armrest inner plate 11 and an armrest upper cover 12. The armrest upper cover 12 is installed above the armrest inner plate 11, and together with the armrest inner plate 11, defines an installation space 13, that is, the armrest cover 1 is provided with an installation space 13, and the snap-in assembly 3 can be installed in the installation space 13. The armrest inner plate 11 is provided with a guide groove 113 for guiding and cooperating with the movable part 31 of the snap-in assembly 3, and is also provided with a limit groove 111 for limiting and cooperating with the snap-in rotating shaft part 32 of the snap-in assembly 3, which can ensure the operating stability of the snap-in assembly 3, avoid abnormal noise during use, and improve the use experience.

[0120] Furthermore, the drive assembly 4 can also be installed in the installation space 13, and the armrest upper cover 12 is provided with a hole-like structure, so that part of the pressing piece 41 can extend out of the armrest cover 1, so that the occupant can operate the drive assembly 4 from outside the armrest cover 1, thereby improving the convenience of operation. The drive block 43 can be rotatably installed on the armrest inner panel 11 through a rotating shaft, and the armrest inner panel 11 can also be provided with a groove-like structure that cooperates with the pressing piece 41 and the driving connecting rod 42 to ensure the operational reliability of the drive assembly 4, and can avoid abnormal noise during use, thereby improving the user experience.

[0121] The present invention also provides a vehicle.

[0122] The vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention comprises any one of the armrest assemblies 100 described above, wherein the vehicle of the present embodiment may be an off-road vehicle, a sedan, a pickup truck, an SUV, and the like.

[0123] According to the vehicle of the embodiment of the present invention, an armrest assembly 100 is provided, and the armrest assembly 100 uses a movable part 31 to drive two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 to synchronously snap-fit ​​or snap-fit ​​with the armrest base 2, thereby improving the synchronization of the two snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32, ensuring the use sensitivity of the armrest assembly 100, and further improving the user experience, and the snap-fitting rotating shaft parts 32 and the movable parts 31 have simple structures, low setting costs, better use effects, and a wider range of applications.
