[0046] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 6 A lock assembly, a vehicle refrigerator 1 and a vehicle according to an embodiment of the utility model are described.

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, according to the lock assembly of the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model, the lock assembly includes: an unlocking drive member, a first locking member 132 and a second locking member 133 .

[0048] Among them, the first locking member 132 is movably arranged on the main body 11 along the first direction, the second locking member 133 is arranged on the storage box 12, the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133 can be selectively locked together, and the unlocking drive member is suitable for driving the first locking member 132 to move in the second direction to release the locking cooperation between the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133, and the first direction is different from the second direction; the main body 11 is used to accommodate the storage box 12.

[0049] Specifically, the storage box 12 is accommodated in the body 11, and the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133 are respectively provided on the body 11 and the storage box 12, and the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133 can be selectively locked and matched, and in the process of locking the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133, the first locking member 132 can move toward the first direction to achieve locking of the body 11 and the storage box 12. The unlocking drive member can drive the first locking member 132 to move in the second direction to release the locking cooperation between the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133, so that the body 11 and the storage box 12 can be unlocked, so that the user can take and put the refrigerated items.

[0050] It should be noted that the first direction and the second direction can be directions of linear motion, such as up and down directions, left and right directions, etc., such as linear motion in the front and back directions, so as to move toward or away from the second locking member 133 to achieve unlocking or locking. The first direction and the second direction can also be rotation directions, such as Figure 3 As shown, if the front-to-back direction is defined as the X-axis, the left-to-right direction is defined as the Y-axis, and the second direction movement is defined as movement around the X-axis, then the first direction movement can be movement around the Y-axis. For example, the unlocking drive member rotates around the X-axis and drives the first locking member 132 to rotate around the Y-axis to achieve unlocking or locking. When rotating, the rotation direction of the first locking member 132 can be limited to clockwise or counterclockwise, and unidirectional rotation to reduce the difficulty of unlocking. For example, when the unlocking drive member rotates clockwise around the X-axis, it can drive the first locking member 132 to rotate clockwise around the Y-axis to achieve unlocking.

[0051] The first direction is different from the second direction. The advantage of such a setting is that the locking of the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133 is realized in the first direction, while the driving to unlock the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133 is carried out in the second direction. Vibration in the first direction or the second direction alone is unlikely to cause vibration unlocking, thereby improving the locking stability.

[0052] According to the lock assembly of the embodiment of the utility model, the main body 11 and the storage box 12 can be locked by the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133, and unlocking is achieved by driving the first locking member 132 in the second direction to move in the first direction by the unlocking driving member, thereby improving the locking stability of the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133, and improving the locking reliability between the main body 11 and the storage box 12. Compared with the related art, the locking structure between the drawer and the box body of the vehicle refrigerator 1 is unstable, and the drawer is easy to automatically slide out of the box body and open when the vehicle encounters bumpy road conditions or the vehicle changes speed. When the storage box 12 and the main body 11 are in a locked state in the utility model, it has good anti-vibration performance, which can prevent the storage box 12 from opening due to vibration, resulting in cold air leakage and falling of items, thereby ensuring the refrigeration effect of items and improving human and driving safety.

[0053] like Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the first locking member 132 includes: a rotating shaft 1323 , a locking block 1321 and an unlocking plate 1322 .

[0054] Among them, the rotating shaft 1323 is rotatably arranged on the main body 11 along the first direction, the locking block 1321 is located on one side of the rotating shaft 1323 and is suitable for locking and cooperating with the second locking member 133, and the unlocking plate 1322 is located on the same side of the locking block 1321 and is dynamically connected to the unlocking drive member.

[0055] Specifically, the rotating shaft 1323 can rotate in a first direction relative to the main body 11 and is arranged on the main body 11, the locking block 1321 and the unlocking plate 1322 are both located on one side of the rotating shaft 1323 and are rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 1323, the locking block 1321 and the unlocking plate 1322 can be connected, wherein the locking block 1321 is suitable for locking cooperation with the second locking member 133. When it is necessary to lock the storage box 12 and the main body 11, the locking block 1321 and the unlocking plate 1322 can be rotated in the first direction around the rotating shaft 1323, so that the locking block 1321 is rotated to a position where it is locked and matched with the second locking piece 133, thereby achieving quick locking; and the unlocking plate 1322 is power-connected to the unlocking driving member. Therefore, when it is necessary to unlock the storage box 12 and the main body 11 to take and place refrigerated items, the unlocking driving member can drive the unlocking plate 1322 to rotate in the first direction around the rotating shaft 1323, and the rotation of the unlocking plate 1322 can drive the locking block 1321 to rotate synchronously, so that the locking block 1321 can be rotated in the first direction to a position where it is unlocked with the second locking piece 133, thereby achieving unlocking the main body 11 and the storage box 12.

[0056] It can be understood that unlocking between the locking block 1321 and the second locking member 133 requires the locking block 1321 to rotate in the first direction, and for unlocking, the rotation of the locking block 1321 must be achieved by the unlocking drive member driving the unlocking plate 1322 to rotate in the second direction. Therefore, unlocking between the storage box 12 and the main body 11 must be achieved by the lock assembly moving in both the second direction and the first direction. In this way, the lock assembly can effectively improve the locking reliability and stability between the storage box 12 and the main body 11, and can optimize the working performance and safety performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1.

[0057] It should be pointed out that the power connection between the above-mentioned unlocking plate 1322 and the unlocking drive member is not limited to the connection in the conventional sense. The power connection broadly includes: the two are directly connected and power transmission is realized, or the power transmission is indirectly carried out between the two, which all belong to the category of power connection. For example, the power connection can be realized by the push-butt contact cooperation between the two, or it can be realized by meshing cooperation, direct connection cooperation and other forms.

[0058] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, an unlocking groove 132a is defined between the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321, and the power output end of the unlocking driving member is located in the unlocking groove 132a.

[0059] Specifically, the unlocking plate 1322 can be connected to the locking block 1321 in the extension direction of the rotating shaft 1323, and an unlocking groove 132a is defined between the two. The power output end of the unlocking drive member can be accommodated in the unlocking groove 132a. In this way, on the one hand, it can be ensured that the power output end of the unlocking drive member can be connected to the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 to ensure that the unlocking drive member can drive the unlocking work normally; on the other hand, by arranging the power output end of the unlocking drive member to be located in the unlocking groove 132a, the structural integration of the unlocking drive member and the unlocking plate 1322, the locking block 1321 and the rotating shaft 1323 can also be improved, and the layout flexibility of the unlocking drive member and the unlocking plate 1322 can be improved, thereby facilitating the installation and layout convenience of the lock assembly, and can save the space occupied by the lock assembly layout and improve the utilization rate.

[0060] It should be pointed out that the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 mentioned above can be constructed as an integrally formed part to save production processes; the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 can also be formed separately, and the two are independent components, which are relatively fixed through assembly. For example, the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 can both have a sleeve for cooperating with the rotating shaft 1323, and the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 are arranged adjacent to or at intervals along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 1323, and the gap between the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 is formed as an unlocking groove 132a.

[0061] like Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, at least one mating protrusion 13221 is provided on the unlocking plate 1322, and the mating protrusion 13221 is suitable for contacting and mating with the unlocking driving member.

[0062] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the matching protrusion 13221 can be configured as at least one and is located on the unlocking plate 1322, and one side of the matching protrusion 13221 in the thickness direction can contact at least part of the unlocking driving member, so that the unlocking driving member can drive the unlocking plate 1322 to move toward the first direction in the second direction through the matching protrusion 13221. Therefore, by providing the matching protrusion 13221, the matching protrusion 13221 can play a positioning and connecting role in the matching between the unlocking driving member and the unlocking plate 1322, which can improve the accuracy of the unlocking driving member driving the unlocking plate 1322 to move, which is conducive to improving the working reliability and efficiency of the lock assembly.

[0063] In addition, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, a limiting portion 13222 is formed on the unlocking plate 1322 , and the limiting portion 13222 is suitable for abutting against at least part of the unlocking drive member, which can improve the contact and matching accuracy and stability between the unlocking drive member and the unlocking plate 1322 .

[0064] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the unlocking drive member includes a driver 1311 and a transmission rod 1312 .

[0065] The transmission rod 1312 has a power input end and a power output end, the power input end is power-connected to the driver 1311 , and the power output end is power-connected to the first locking member 132 .

[0066] Specifically, the driver 1311 can provide a power source, the power input end of the transmission rod 1312 can be connected to the power of the driver 1311, and the power output end of the transmission rod 1312 can be connected to the power of the first locking member 132. The transmission rod 1312 can transmit power and change the direction of power transmission. The power source of the driver 1311 can be transmitted to the first locking member 132 through the transmission rod 1312, so that by controlling the operation of the driver 1311, the first locking member 132 can be selectively driven to move, which can improve the control accuracy and efficiency of the unlocking operation of the lock assembly, and help to ensure the stability of the first locking member 132 and the second locking member 133 when locked.

[0067] In addition, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, the driver 1311 is constructed as an actuator or a servo motor. Since the actuator and the servo motor have the advantages of high precision, good stability and timeliness, therefore, by constructing the driver 1311 as an actuator or a servo motor, it is beneficial to optimize the working performance and efficiency of the driver 1311.

[0068] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the power input end is constructed as a first swing arm 1313 or a coupling 1315, and the driver 1311 pushes the first swing arm 1313 or drives the coupling 1315 to drive the transmission rod 1312 to rotate toward the second direction.

[0069] Specifically, the power input end can be constructed as follows Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first swing arm 1313 shown in the figure, one end of the first swing arm 1313 can be connected to or push-contact with the driver 1311, and the other end can be connected to one end of the transmission rod 1312. The driver 1311 can push the first swing arm 1313 to swing, and the swing of the first swing arm 1313 can drive the transmission rod 1312 to rotate toward the second direction. The rotation of the transmission rod 1312 can drive the first locking member 132 to move; the power input end can also be constructed as follows Figure 4 The coupling 1315 shown can be connected to the driver 1311 to transmit torque and rotational force between the driver 1311 and the transmission rod 1312, so as to drive the transmission rod 1312 to rotate and drive the first locking member 132 to move. The driver 1311 can drive the transmission rod 1312 to transmit by adopting the first swing arm 1313 transmission or the coupling 1315 transmission, and it can be ensured that the second direction is different from the first direction, so as to improve the locking stability of the body 11 and the storage box 12, and at the same time, it is also helpful to improve the accuracy of the unlocking drive of the lock assembly.

[0070] In addition, if Figure 4 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, the driver 1311 is constructed as a servo motor, and the power input end is constructed as a coupling 1315, the coupling 1315 is connected to the servo motor shaft, and the servo motor can directly drive the transmission rod 1312 to rotate through the coupling 1315 to unlock.

[0071] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present utility model, the power output end is constructed as a second swing arm 1314, the second swing arm 1314 is in contact with and cooperates with the first locking member 132, and is suitable for pushing the first locking member 132 to rotate.

[0072] Specifically, the second swing arm 1314 can be connected to the other end of the transmission rod 1312. When the driver 1311 drives the transmission rod 1312 to rotate in the second direction, the transmission rod 1312 can drive the second swing arm 1314 to swing. Since the second swing arm 1314 is in contact with the first locking member 132, the swing of the second swing arm 1314 can push the first locking member 132 to rotate in the first direction. Similarly, by adopting the transmission method of the second swing arm 1314, the transmission direction from the driver 1311 to the first locking member 132 can be adjusted to ensure that the second direction is different from the first direction, thereby improving the locking stability of the body 11 and the storage box 12. Figure 1 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the transmission rod 1312 extends along the length direction of the body 11 , and the driver 1311 and at least a portion of the end of the storage box 12 are opposite to each other in the length direction of the body 11 .

[0073] Specifically, the lock assembly as a whole can be arranged at one end of the main body 11 in the length direction, wherein the transmission rod 1312 extends along the length direction of the main body 11, at least part of the transmission rod 1312 can be accommodated in the accommodating space 11a, so that the transmission rod 1312 cooperates with the first locking member 132, and at least part of the transmission rod 1312 can be opposite to the storage box 12 in the height direction of the main body 11, and the driver 1311 can extend along the width direction of the main body 11, and at least part of the end of the driver 1311 and the storage box 12 are opposite in the length direction of the main body 11, that is, the projection of the driver 1311 and the storage box 12 in the length direction of the main body 11 at least partially overlaps, in this way, the transmission rod 1312, the driver 1311 and the storage box 12 can be compactly arranged on the main body 11, which can improve integration, improve space utilization, help increase the capacity of the storage box 12, and help save the layout space occupied by the vehicle refrigerator 1 on the vehicle.

[0074] In addition, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, a through hole is formed on the main body 11, the driver 1311 is arranged on the side of the main body 11 away from the storage box 12 in the thickness direction, the first locking member 132 is located on the side of the main body 11 facing the storage box 12 in the thickness direction, and the transmission rod 1312 is suitable for passing through the through hole to contact and cooperate with the first locking member 132. In this way, the integration among the driver 1311, the transmission rod 1312, the first locking member 132 and the storage box 12 can be further improved.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, according to the vehicle refrigerator 1 of the second embodiment of the utility model, the vehicle refrigerator 1 includes: a body 11, a storage box 12 and a lock assembly.

[0076] The body 11 is disposed on the vehicle body and defines a receiving space 11 a ; the storage box 12 is removably disposed in the receiving space 11 a ; and the lock assembly is constructed as the lock assembly described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0077] Specifically, the body 11 can provide an installation position for other parts of the vehicle refrigerator 1 (such as the storage box 12), and can support, fix and protect other parts of the vehicle refrigerator 1. The body 11 can be set on the vehicle body and define a storage space 11a; the storage box 12 is suitable for storing items and can be set in the storage space 11a to achieve refrigeration and retrieval of items. Since the vehicle refrigerator 1 according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the utility model has the lock assembly described in any one of the above embodiments, when the storage box 12 and the body 11 in the vehicle refrigerator 1 are in a locked state, they have good vibration resistance, which can ensure the refrigeration effect of the vehicle refrigerator 1 on the items and improve the safety of the vehicle refrigerator 1.

[0078] like Figure 1 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present invention, the second locking member 133 is disposed at one end of the storage box 12 that preferentially extends into the accommodating space 11 a.

[0079] Specifically, by arranging the second locking member 133 at one end of the storage box 12 that preferentially extends into the accommodating space 11a, when the storage box 12 is pushed into the accommodating space 11a (i.e., the storage box 12 is pushed from the outside to the inside), the second locking member 133 can preferentially contact and cooperate with the first locking member 132. In this way, the second locking member 133 can contact the first locking member 132 to ensure that the storage box 12 is moved into place. At the same time, it can ensure that the storage box 12 is locked with the body 11 in time, which can further improve the safety of the vehicle refrigerator 1.

[0080] In addition, if Figure 6 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, the second locking member 133 is formed with a groove 133a that is recessed toward and away from the first locking member 132, and the groove 133a is suitable for accommodating at least part of the locking block 1321 after the second locking member 133 pushes the locking block 1321 to rotate, so as to lock the storage box 12 and the main body 11.

[0081] In some other specific embodiments of the present invention, a reset member is disposed between the locking block 1321 and the body 11 to drive the locking block 1321 to reset.

[0082] According to the vehicle refrigerator 1 of the utility model, when the storage box 12 is pushed into the accommodating space 11a, the end of the second locking member 133 away from the storage box 12 in the length direction of the body 11 preferentially contacts the first locking member 132 and pushes the unlocking plate 1322 to rotate positively toward the first direction. The unlocking plate 1322 drives the locking block 1321 to rotate to a position that does not block the storage box 12 from being pushed further in, and compresses the reset member. As the storage box 12 is further pushed in, the groove 133a provides an accommodating space for the reset member to drive the locking block 1321 to reset. The locking block 1321 can be rotated in the opposite direction of the first direction (corresponding to the second swing arm 1314 and the transmission rod 1312 in the opposite direction of the second direction) under the action of the reset member to return to the initial position before being pushed by the second locking member 133, and enter the groove 133a. Due to the limiting effect of the abutment between the inner walls 133a, the storage box 12 cannot move out of the accommodating space 11a; when unlocking is required, the user controls the driver 1311 to start, and the driver 1311 drives the transmission rod 1312 to rotate in the second direction in the opposite direction, and the transmission rod 1312 drives the second swing arm 1314 to swing, and the second swing arm 1314 pushes the unlocking plate 1322 to rotate in the first direction, and the unlocking plate 1322 drives the locking block 1321 to rotate to a position out of the groove 133a. At this time, the storage box 12 is no longer restricted by the second locking member 133 and the first locking member 132, so that it can move out of the accommodating space 11a. Compared with the prior art, vibration in the first direction or the second direction alone is unlikely to cause vibration unlocking, and unlocking must be achieved through both movement in the second direction and movement in the first direction, which is safer.

[0083] The unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 rotate in the opposite direction toward the first direction, and the corresponding second swing arm 1314 and the transmission rod 1312 rotate in the opposite direction toward the second direction; the second swing arm 1314 and the transmission rod 1312 rotate forward toward the second direction, and the corresponding unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 rotate forward toward the first direction.

[0084] During the locking process, the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 first rotate forward in the first direction under the action of the second locking member 133, and then rotate reversely in the first direction under the action of the reset member to complete the locking. During the locking process, the unlocking drive member does not drive the first locking member 132 to move.

[0085] For unlocking, the driver 1311 drives the transmission rod 1312 and the second swing arm 1314 to rotate positively toward the second direction, and the second swing arm 1314 pushes the unlocking plate 1322 and the locking block 1321 to rotate positively toward the first direction to achieve unlocking.

[0086] like Figure 2As shown, in some other specific embodiments of the present utility model, the vehicle refrigerator 1 further includes a slider 14 and an elastic member. One end of the elastic member is connected to the body 11, and the other end is connected to the slider 14; the slider 14 is movably arranged on the body 11, and a track suitable for limiting the moving track of the slider 14 is formed on the body 11, and the track extends along the length direction of the body 11; wherein a clamping groove is formed on the slider 14, and a clamping column 121 suitable for clamping with the clamping groove is arranged at the bottom of the storage box 12. In the process of pushing the storage box 12 into the accommodating space 11a, the clamping column 121 is limitedly matched with the clamping groove to push the slider 14 to move, and the movement of the slider 14 can pull the other end of the elastic member to move elastically. When the storage box 12 and the body 11 are unlocked from the locked state, under the restoring force of the elastic member, the storage box 12 can automatically pop out from the accommodating space 11a, thereby improving the convenience of use of the vehicle refrigerator 1.
