[0027] Embodiment 1:

[0028] The utility model provides a hidden water cup rack.

[0029] In one embodiment of the utility model, a hidden water cup holder includes a base 1, a cover plate 2, a limit assembly and a clamping assembly, the cover plate 2 is hinged on the base 1, the base 1, the limit assembly and the clamping assembly form a placement space for placing water cups, the clamping assembly includes two clamping claws 3, the two clamping claws 3 are movably disposed on the inner walls on both sides of the base 1, and the two clamping claws 3 are used to clamp the bottom of the water cup; the limit assembly is movably disposed on the cover plate 2 and is used to abut against the top of the water cup.

[0030] Specifically, Figures 1 to 3As shown, in a hidden cup holder of the utility model, since the cover plate 2 is hinged on the base 1, and the base 1, the limiting assembly and the clamping assembly form a placement space for placing the cup, when the cup needs to be placed, the driver and the passenger can open the placement space by flipping the cover plate 2, and directly place the cup into the placement space, which is simple to use and convenient to operate. Furthermore, since the two clamping claws 3 in the limiting assembly are respectively installed on the inner walls of the two opposite sides of the base 1 in a limiting and movable manner, the two clamping claws 3 can be connected by springs, that is, the two clamping claws 3 are driven to approach each other by the springs. When the cup is placed, the two springs are in a compressed state, and the two clamping claws 3 are pressed against the outer wall of the cup under the rebound action of the springs to achieve the bottom limit of the cup. Not only is the structural design simple and reasonable, but also the utility model can meet the needs of placing cups of different diameters, with strong applicability, flexible and convenient use.

[0031] It can be understood that, since the limiting assembly is movably arranged on the cover plate 2, the limiting assembly can be adopted as a limiting column that can be moved and adjusted relative to the cover plate 2, and the way in which the limiting column moves up and down relative to the cover plate 2 can be adopted as sliding contact cooperation, that is, by opening a slide groove on the cover plate 2, the extension direction of the slide groove is the width direction of the cover plate 2, and the limiting column and the slide groove are in sliding contact cooperation, when the driver and the passenger open the cover plate 2 and put the water cup in, the cover plate 2 is vertical relative to the base 1, at this time, the limiting column can move in the up and down direction relative to the cover plate 2, and then the up and down position of the limiting column can be adaptively adjusted according to the height of the water cup, so as to abut the top of the water cup, and cooperate with the two clamps 3 to realize multi-point limiting of the water cup, improve the placement stability of the water cup, and avoid the top of the water cup from tipping over due to accidental collision of the driver and the passenger, and the use is reliable. In addition, when the limiting column is adjusted to the right position, it can be fixed and limited by means of clamping or threaded connection, so as to ensure that the limiting column is always in a position that can abut against the top of the water cup, and the structural design is simple and reasonable.

[0032] In one embodiment, a slide rail 4 is provided on the cover plate 2 along its width direction, and the slide rail 4 is located at the center of the cover plate 2. The limit assembly includes a slider 5 and a limit snap ring 6, and the limit snap ring 6 is detachably mounted on the slider 5. The slider 5 is limitably mounted on the slide rail 4 and is in sliding contact with the slide rail 4. It can be understood that Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the cover plate 2 is buckled onto the base 1, since the slide rail 4 is located at the center of the cover plate 2, the slider 5 and the limit snap ring 6 can extend between the two clamping claws 3, thereby preventing the limit snap ring 6 and the slider 5 from interfering with the two clamping claws 3, and the structural layout is reasonable. Furthermore, through the sliding contact cooperation between the slider 5 and the slide rail 4, the limit snap ring 6 on the slider 5 can move up and down relative to the cover plate 2, so that the limit snap ring 6 can be adaptively adjusted according to the height of different water cups, and it is reliable to use. In addition, the slider 5 and the slide rail 4 can be limited by a clamping or threaded connection, so as to ensure that the limit snap ring 6 is always in a position where it can firmly contact the water cup after being adjusted into place.

[0033] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a connecting tube 7 is formed on the side of the slider 5 facing the placement space, and a limiting snap ring 6 is slidably installed in the connecting tube 7 along the extension direction of the connecting tube 7, and an elastic member is provided between the connecting tube 7 and the limiting snap ring 6. Specifically, the elastic member can be selected as a spring in the prior art, which has the characteristics of compact structure, easy material acquisition, and large elastic deformation force. The elastic member can not only firmly abut the limiting snap ring 6 against the outer wall of the water cup, but also enable the limiting snap ring 6 to adapt to water cups of different shapes. If the top of the water cup has some special design elements, when the water cup is placed in the placement space, the elastic member can provide a certain amount of clearance space for the limiting snap ring 6, so that the limiting snap ring 6 can better adapt to the shape of the outer wall of the water cup and is reliable to use.

[0034] In one embodiment, the limiting clamp ring 6 includes a connecting portion 8 and an abutting portion 9, wherein the connecting portion 8 is used to extend into the connecting tube 7 and be fixedly connected to the elastic member, and the abutting portion 9 is C-shaped and used to abut against the outer wall of the water cup, and any side wall edge of the abutting portion 9 is chamfered. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, since the connecting portion 8 is used to extend into the connecting tube 7 and is fixedly connected to the elastic member, the limiting snap ring 6 can only move relative to the cover plate 2 along the extension direction of the connection under the action of the elastic member, ensuring that the limiting snap ring 6 can stably abut against the water cup, and the structural design is simple and reasonable. Furthermore, since the abutting portion 9 is arranged in a C shape, the contact area between the abutting portion 9 and the outer wall of the water cup can be increased, so that the abutting portion 9 can stably abut against the water cup, thereby improving the limiting effect on the water cup.

[0035] In one embodiment, the base 1 is provided with a groove 10 for the bottom of the water cup to extend into. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, when the water cup is placed in the placement space, the bottom of the water cup extends into the groove 10, so that the bottom of the water cup can be limited, thereby improving the stability of the placement of the water cup.

[0036] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the notch of the groove 10 is gradually reduced from top to bottom, which not only facilitates the bottom of the water cup to extend into the groove 10, but also prevents the notch edge of the groove 10 from scratching the outer wall paint surface of some water cups.

[0037] In one embodiment, one end of the cover plate 2 is hinged to the base 1, and a buckle 11 is formed at the other end of the cover plate 2. The base 1 is provided with a connecting hole 12 for the buckle 11 to be engaged. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, by the snap fit of the buckle 11 and the connection hole 12, the cover plate 2 can be firmly snapped onto the base 1, thereby shielding the placement space and effectively preventing external dust, impurities, etc. from entering the placement space and affecting use.

[0038] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
