DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will describe the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention, not for limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present invention. The illustrations only show components related to the present invention rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed arbitrarily, and the component layout may also be more complicated.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 A movable center island shown in the figure includes a slide rail assembly 2 suitable for installation on a vehicle floor and a sub-instrument panel assembly 1 connected to the slide rail assembly 2, the slide rail assembly 2 is used to guide the sub-instrument panel assembly 1 to slide along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the sub-instrument panel assembly 1 includes a vehicle-mounted refrigerator, and a refrigerator shell 1101 of the vehicle-mounted refrigerator constitutes at least a part of the skeleton of the sub-instrument panel assembly 1.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 can slide in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. When the movable center island is applied to the vehicle, it can form a vehicle cabin with variable space, which can meet the diverse use needs of users and help improve the user's car experience. By sliding the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 backward, the second and third row passengers can use the functional modules on the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 more conveniently, which can meet the convenient use needs of the second and third row passengers. For example, it can meet the needs of the second and third row passengers to conveniently use the vehicle refrigerator.

[0024] In the above technical solution, by setting the refrigerator housing 1101 as at least a part of the skeleton of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1, the restriction on the volume of the vehicle refrigerator can be reduced, thereby realizing a vehicle refrigerator with a larger volume.

[0025] As a preferred example, Fig.23 and Fig.24 As shown, when the movable center island is applied to a vehicle, the movable center island can be configured as follows: the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 can reciprocate between the front end point and the rear end point of the travel. When the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 is located at the front end point of the travel, at least a portion of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 is located between the two front seats 4 of the vehicle; when the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 is located at the rear end point of the travel, at least a portion of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 is located between the two second-row seats 5 of the vehicle. At this time, the passengers on the second-row seats 5 and the third-row seats 6 can more conveniently use the functional modules on the movable center island. By reasonably setting the moving range of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 and correspondingly setting the layout of the vehicle cabin, a vehicle cabin with variable space can be formed, thereby better meeting the diverse needs of users and helping to improve the user's vehicle experience.

[0026] In some embodiments, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the refrigerator housing 1101 is provided with a condenser 1114, a first fan 1115, a compressor 1116 and a second fan 1117 from top to bottom. The first fan 1115 is used to blow the air outside the condenser 1114 to the compressor 1116, and the second fan 1117 is used to discharge the air outside the compressor 1116 from the bottom of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1. By adopting the above technical solution and reasonably setting the heat dissipation solution of the vehicle refrigerator, on the one hand, the heat dissipation capacity of the compressor 1116 can be improved; on the other hand, the hot air formed at the condenser 1114 and the compressor 1116 is discharged from the bottom of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1, which can reduce the impact on the vehicle occupants, and also avoids setting a heat dissipation port on the appearance surface of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1, thereby ensuring the aesthetic appearance of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1.

[0027] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, a hollow storage cavity is provided at the front of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1. The hollow storage cavity can increase the storage space of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1. In a specific implementation, the storage cavity is opened on both sides, so that the front row passengers can use the storage cavity conveniently.

[0028] In some embodiments, Figure 6 and Fig.10As shown, an air inlet is provided at the upper portion of the rear side wall of the storage cavity for supplying air to the periphery of the condenser 1114. The air inlet is provided at the rear side wall of the storage cavity, and the passengers in the vehicle usually cannot see the air inlet, which helps to ensure the aesthetic appearance of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1. In a specific implementation, the air inlet can be composed of a plurality of air inlet holes 1112.

[0029] Further, such as Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, in order to reasonably utilize the space formed for shaping behind the storage cavity, the condenser 1114, the first fan 1115, the compressor 1116 and the second fan 1117 are arranged on the side of the refrigerator housing 1101 close to the storage cavity. The refrigerator housing 1101 is provided with an air guide cavity 1118 whose front end is connected to the air inlet, the condenser 1114 is installed in the air guide cavity 1118, the first fan 1115 is installed at the bottom of the air guide cavity 1118, the compressor 1116 is installed in the arrangement space below the air guide cavity 1118, and the second fan 1117 is installed at the bottom of the arrangement space. When the first fan 1115 is in operation, it blows air downward, and the air enters the air guide cavity 1118 from the air inlet. The air is guided to the condenser 1114 through the air guide cavity 1118 and takes away the heat in the condenser 1114. The hot air outside the condenser 1114 is blown downward to the compressor 1116 by the first fan 1115, which can cool down the compressor 1116. The second fan 1117 is installed in front of the fixed sheet metal bracket of the compressor 1116. The second fan 1117 blows the hot air outside the compressor 1116 downward out of the bottom of the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1. The hot air is then diffused by the tray 22 of the slide rail assembly 2, and finally the hot air is dissipated through the gap between the auxiliary instrument panel body subassembly 11 and the vehicle carpet.

[0030] The vehicle refrigerator utilizes the rear shaping area of ​​the storage cavity to arrange the condenser 1114, the first fan 1115, the compressor 1116 and the second fan 1117, and sets the air inlet at the upper part of the storage cavity, as far away from the main visible area as possible, and cleverly and reasonably designs the exhaust path, forming a more aesthetically pleasing heat dissipation solution with less impact on passengers.

[0055] In some embodiments, Fig.18 , Fig.19 and Fig. 22As shown, the slide rail assembly 2 includes a slide rail assembly 21 suitable for installation on the vehicle floor and a tray 22 slidably connected to the slide rail assembly 21, and the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 is fixedly connected to the tray 22. The tray 22 slides along the slide rail assembly 21 to realize the auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 moving longitudinally along the vehicle.

[0056] As a specific example, the slide rail assembly 21 and the vehicle floor are positioned by two first positioning pins 24 and then fastened by eight first bolts 25 .

[0057] As a specific example, the tray 22 is used as a carrier of the moving parts. Four rivet nuts 27 and a second positioning pin 26 are designed on both sides of the tray 22. The tray 22 matches the auxiliary instrument panel body subassembly 11. The auxiliary instrument panel body subassembly 11 is positioned by the second positioning pins 26 on both sides of the tray 22, and then fastened to the tray 22 by the second bolts matched with the rivet nuts 27. When the tray 22 moves, it drives the entire auxiliary instrument panel assembly 1 to move.

[0058] As a specific example, Fig. 20 As shown, a guide groove 212 is provided in the slide rail assembly 21, and the length of the guide groove 212 is extended in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A guide portion is provided on the tray 22, and the guide portion cooperates with the guide groove 212 to limit the sliding direction of the tray 22. A flexible roller 213 supported on the slide rail assembly 21 is installed on the tray 22, and the flexible roller 213 rolls when the tray 22 slides.

[0059] As a specific example, a screw transmission mechanism and a chain-type harness retractable mechanism are also provided in the rail assembly 21. The island drive motor 23 drives the nut in the screw transmission mechanism that cooperates with the lead screw to rotate, so that the tray 22 slides relative to the rail assembly 21. The screw transmission mechanism can ensure the stable movement of the tray 22. The chain-type harness retractable mechanism can store the harness when the tray 22 moves, ensuring the effective transmission of electrical signals.

[0060] In some embodiments, the tray 22 is equipped with a center island drive motor 23 and a center island controller 211. The center island drive motor 23 and the center island controller 211 are arranged on the tray 22, and the arrangement space of the tray 22 is reasonably utilized. Moreover, since the vehicle refrigerator adopts a lower side heat dissipation solution, when the center island drive motor 23 and the center island controller 211 are at risk of overheating, the heat dissipation system of the vehicle refrigerator can be used to enhance the heat dissipation of the center island drive motor 23 and the center island controller 211.

[0061] As a specific example, the island drive motor 23 is arranged vertically on the tray 22 and fastened by three bolts. The output end of the island drive motor 23 matches the screw transmission mechanism. When the island drive motor 23 rotates, it drives the entire tray 22 to move, thereby realizing the moving function of the movable island. A Hall sensor can be integrated in the island drive motor 23 to accurately control the number of rotations and position of the island drive motor 23, thereby realizing the infinite adjustment of the movable island and precise position positioning movement.

[0062] As a specific example, the center island controller 211 is fixed to the concave part of the tray 22 by two bolts. The center island controller 211 is used to realize functions such as signal acquisition, motor drive, vehicle information interaction, and anti-pinch control. It is the mobile control center of the entire movable center island.

[0063] In some embodiments, Fig.18 , Fig.19 and Fig.21 As shown, in order to prevent small foreign objects from falling into the gap between the slide rail assembly 21 and the tray 22, a strip opening 214 for avoiding the tray 22 is provided on the slide rail assembly 21, and a coil spring 215 for shielding the strip opening 214 is connected between the tray 22 and the slide rail assembly 21. In a specific implementation, the strip opening 214 is formed by setting the guide groove 212, and foreign objects falling into the guide groove 212 through the strip opening 214 may cause abnormal noise and jamming. The present application uses a retractable coil spring 215 to seal the strip opening 214 that changes with the movement of the tray 22, which can reduce the risk of abnormal noise and jamming of the slide rail assembly 2.

[0064] As a specific example, Fig.21 As shown, a clamping portion 216 is provided on the tray 22, a retractor of the coil spring 215 is installed in the slide rail assembly 21, and a clamping hole 217 is provided at the end of the spring band of the coil spring 215 to be clamped with the clamping portion 216. Further, coil springs 215 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the tray 22. In a specific implementation, the spring band of the coil spring 215 can be a metal band.

[0065] The present invention also provides a vehicle, comprising any of the movable center islands described above.
