[0026] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0027] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 5 An armrest assembly 10 of a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present application is described. The armrest assembly 10 includes a shell 11, a fixed shaft 12 and a display element. A accommodating cavity is formed in the shell 11, and a first contact element 13 is provided on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity. The fixed shaft 12 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity, and a second contact element 14 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 12. The shell 11 can be selectively rotated relative to the fixed shaft 12 to contact or separate the first contact element 13 from the second contact element 14. The display element is provided on the shell 11, and the display element can be selectively switched between an open state and a closed state, wherein when the first contact element 13 is in contact with the second contact element 14, the display element is in an open state, and when the first contact element 13 is separated from the second contact element 14, the display element is in a closed state.

[0028] At present, with the rapid development of automobiles, people's demands for entertainment space inside cars are more diversified. Rear passengers have scenarios of entertainment or office use, such as charging mobile phones and other electronic screen devices. Existing rear screens of cars are usually set on the middle armrest in the rear row, but the opening and closing of the rear screen usually requires manual control, and cannot be associated with the opening or closing position of the armrest, resulting in the screen still being on after the armrest is closed, affecting the power consumption of the vehicle.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, specifically, the armrest assembly 10 can be applied to the front seat or the rear seat of the vehicle, and the armrest assembly 10 includes a shell 11, which can play a supporting role to facilitate the driving comfort of the user. A accommodating cavity can be formed in the shell 11, and the inner wall of the accommodating cavity can be provided with a first contact member 13, and the first contact member 13 can move synchronously with the shell 11. A fixed shaft 12 is also provided in the accommodating cavity, and both ends of the fixed shaft 12 can be fixedly connected to the seat, and the shell 11 can rotate in the circumferential direction with the fixed shaft 12 as the axis, wherein a second contact member 14 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 12, and the second contact member 14 can be fixedly connected to the fixed shaft 12, and optionally, the second contact member 14 and the fixed shaft 12 can be connected by bolts and threads. The first contact piece 13 and the second contact piece 14 are connected to each other, or the second contact piece 14 is connected to the fixed shaft 12 by snap-fitting or plug-in connection. When the armrest assembly 10 is in a closed state, the shell 11 can be in a first position. At this time, the first contact piece 13 and the second contact piece 14 are not in contact. When the armrest assembly 10 is in an open state, the shell 11 can be in a second position. At this time, the first contact piece 13 and the second contact piece 14 are in contact. By arranging the first contact piece 13 and the second contact piece 14 in the accommodating cavity, the internal space of the armrest assembly 10 can be fully utilized without occupying additional space.

[0030] The display element is arranged on the housing 11, and the display element can be adjusted to an appropriate angle according to user needs. In actual use, the display element can be constructed as a screen. The display element can be switched between an open state and a closed state according to the current state of the first contact element 13 and the second contact element 14. Further, when the first contact element 13 contacts the second contact element 14, the vehicle can receive a first signal and control the display element to be in an open state. When the first contact element 13 and the second contact element 14 are separated, the vehicle can receive a second signal and control the display element to be in a closed state. Therefore, when the armrest assembly 10 is closed, the first contact element 13 and the second contact element 14 are separated, and the display element is in a closed state. When the armrest assembly 10 is opened, the first contact element 13 and the second contact element 14 are in contact, and the display element is in an open state, thereby realizing that the display element is automatically opened or closed according to the state of the armrest assembly 10, without manual control, reducing the power consumption of the whole vehicle, and meeting the entertainment and office needs of the passengers.

[0031] In short, the armrest assembly 10 of the present application has a shell 11 and a fixed shaft 12, a first contact piece 13 is arranged in the shell 11, and a second contact piece 14 is arranged on the fixed shaft 12. When the armrest assembly 10 is opened, the first contact piece 13 can rotate with the shell 11 and contact with the second contact piece 14. At this time, the vehicle receives a signal and controls the display part to be in an open state. When the armrest assembly 10 is closed, the first contact piece 13 can rotate with the shell 11 and separate from the second contact piece 14. At this time, the vehicle receives a signal and controls the display part to be in a closed state. Therefore, the armrest assembly 10 adopts the first contact piece 13 and the second contact piece 14 to identify the current state, and the display part can be automatically opened or closed according to the current state, thereby reducing the power consumption of the whole vehicle and meeting the entertainment and office needs of the passengers.

When the first trigger member 1322 moves toward the switch body 1321, the display member can receive the signal and be in the open state. When the first trigger member 1322 moves away from the switch body 1321, the display member can receive the signal and be in the open state. When the body 1321 moves, the display element can receive a signal and be in a closed state. The second trigger element 1323 can be arranged at one end of the first trigger element 1322 along the axial direction, and at least part of the second trigger element 1323 can be rotatably connected with the switch body 1321, wherein a first contact surface 1324 is formed on the second trigger element 1323, and the second trigger element 1323 can selectively abut against the first trigger element 1322 and drive the first trigger element 1322 to move toward the switch body 1321, so that the display element can be automatically opened or closed according to the current state, meeting the entertainment and office needs of the occupants. In a specific embodiment, the switch element 132 can be constructed as a contact switch, which can form a circuit and send a position signal for identification after being pressed.
