Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0037] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0038] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in the field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a vehicle sliding cover assembly can be applied to a vehicle center console, a vehicle armrest, a vehicle seat, etc. The vehicle sliding cover assembly mainly comprises: a mounting body 1, a sliding cover 2 and an elastic member 3.

[0040] The installation body 1 is provided with a plurality of electronic interfaces, and the installation body 1 is provided with a panel 10. The sliding cover 2 is movably provided on the installation body 1, and the sliding cover 2 has a shielding position and an opening position on the installation body 1. When the sliding cover 2 is in the shielding position, the sliding cover 2 shields the plurality of electronic interfaces, and at this time, the electronic interfaces can be ensured not to be exposed. When the sliding cover 2 slides to the opening position, at least part of the electronic interfaces are exposed, and at this time, the exposed electronic interfaces can be used by the user. The elastic member 3 is provided between the sliding cover 2 and the installation body 1. When the sliding cover 2 slides from the shielding position to the opening position, the elastic member 3 exerts a force on the sliding cover 2 toward the opening position, and the force can provide assistance during the opening process of the sliding cover 2, which can effectively enhance the user's sense of control.

[0041] During actual use, in this embodiment, an elastic member 3 is arranged between the sliding cover 2 and the mounting body 1, and when the sliding cover 2 slides away from the shielding position and moves toward the opening position, the elastic member 3 exerts a force on the sliding cover 2 toward the opening position, that is, the elastic member 3 provides assistance for the opening of the sliding cover 2. The sliding cover 2 is easy to open and has a good sense of operation, which can effectively improve the user experience.

[0042] As a preferred solution, in this embodiment, after the sliding cover 2 slides away from the shielding position, the force exerted by the elastic member 3 on the sliding cover 2 can drive the sliding cover 2 to move to the opening position, that is, as long as the user pushes the sliding cover 2 to make the sliding cover 2 leave the shielding position, the elastic force of the elastic member 3 can make the sliding cover 2 automatically slide to the opening position, that is, automatically open, and the user operation is simple.

[0043] Specifically, the open position of the sliding cover 2 in this embodiment includes a first open position (such as Figure 2 as shown) and a second open position (as shown) Figure 3 As shown), shielding position (as Figure 1 The sliding cover 2 is between the first open position and the second open position. The sliding cover 2 can slide between the first open position, the shielding position and the second open position. In addition, the electronic interfaces of the present embodiment include a first electronic interface 11 and a second electronic interface 12. When the sliding cover 2 slides to the first open position, the first electronic interface 11 is exposed and the second electronic interface 12 is shielded; when the sliding cover 2 slides to the second open position, the second electronic interface 12 is exposed and the first electronic interface 11 is shielded. The sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 from the shielding position to the first open position is opposite to the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 from the shielding position to the second open position. Preferably, when the sliding cover 2 slides away from the shielding position and moves toward the first open position, the elastic force of the elastic member 3 can drive the sliding cover 2 to slide to the first open position. When the sliding cover 2 slides away from the shielding position and moves toward the second open position, the elastic force of the elastic member 3 can drive the sliding cover 2 to slide to the second open position. That is, when the sliding cover 2 is opened to both sides, the user only needs to push the sliding cover 2 to slide away from the shielding position, and the elastic force of the elastic member 3 can drive the sliding cover 2 to move to the opening position and open automatically, thereby improving the user experience.

[0044] In actual use, this embodiment sets two electronic interfaces (i.e., the first electronic interface 11 and the second electronic interface 12) on the installation body 1, and the open position of the slide cover 2 includes the first open position and the second open position. When the slide cover 2 slides to the first open position, the first electronic interface 11 is exposed and the second electronic interface 12 is shielded; when the slide cover 2 slides to the second open position, the second electronic interface 12 is exposed and the first electronic interface 11 is shielded. The user can open whichever electronic interface he needs to use, and the structure is neat and beautiful, and the slide cover 2 requires a shorter sliding stroke, which can improve space utilization.

[0045] Specifically, Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, the elastic member 3 of this embodiment is a snake spring, and the elastic member 3 includes a plurality of U-shaped elastic units 30 connected in sequence, and the openings of two adjacent U-shaped elastic units 30 face opposite directions, that is, the overall shape of the elastic member 3 is roughly wavy, and the elastic member 3 can provide assistance when the sliding cover 2 is opened in both directions. Whether the sliding cover 2 is in the first open position, the shielding position or the second open position, the elastic member 3 is in a compressed state, and when the sliding cover 2 is in the shielding position, the compression amount of the elastic member 3 is the largest.

[0046] Among them, a floating limit 13 is provided on the installation body 1, and a spring is provided at the floating limit 13 to make it in a floating state. When the corresponding slot is aligned with the floating limit 13, the floating limit 13 can be automatically snapped in. The slide cover 2 is provided with a first slot 21 and a second slot 22 in sequence. When the slide cover 2 is in the shielding position, the floating limit 13 is snapped into the first slot 21 to prevent the slide cover 2 from sliding away from the shielding position. When the slide cover 2 slides to the first open position, the floating limit 13 is snapped into the second slot 22 to ensure that the slide cover 2 stays in the first open position. A limiting protrusion 14 is provided on the installation body 1. When the slide cover 2 slides to the second open position, the slide cover 2 rests on the limiting protrusion 14 to ensure that the slide cover 2 is in the second open position. Regardless of whether the slide cover 2 is in the first open position, the shielding position or the second open position, there is a corresponding limiting structure to ensure the structural stability of the slide cover 2 during use.

[0047] In actual use, in the initial state, the sliding cover 2 is in the shielding position (such as Figure 1 As shown), at this time, the elastic member 3 is in a compressed state, and the floating limit 13 is engaged in the first card slot 21, ensuring that the sliding cover 2 stays in the shielding position, and the first electronic interface 11 and the second electronic interface 12 are both shielded.

[0048] In the initial state, the first electronic interface 11 is shielded. When the first electronic interface 11 needs to be used, the operator slides the slide cover 2 toward the first open position, so that the first slot 21 on the slide cover 2 is disengaged from the floating limit 13. Under the elastic force of the elastic member 3, the slide cover 2 slides toward the first open position until the slide cover 2 abuts against the limit protrusion 14 on the installation body 1. The slide cover 2 reaches the first open position and stays at the first open position (such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown), the first electronic interface 11 is exposed, and the first electronic interface 11 can be used.

[0049] In the initial state, the second electronic interface 12 is shielded. When the second electronic interface 12 needs to be used, the operator slides the slide cover 2 toward the second open position, so that the first card slot 21 on the slide cover 2 is disengaged from the floating limit 13. Under the elastic force of the elastic member 3, the slide cover 2 slides toward the second open position until the second card slot 22 on the slide cover 2 is engaged with the floating limit 13, and the slide cover 2 reaches the second open position. The slide cover 2 stays in the second open position (such as Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown), the second electronic interface 12 is exposed, and the second electronic interface 12 can be used.

[0050] In this solution, during the opening process of the sliding cover 2, the elastic member 3 can provide assistance throughout the entire process, so that the sliding cover 2 has a good operating feel. In addition, the sliding cover 2 can slide in both directions, the sliding stroke of the sliding cover 2 is required to be short, and the overall structure of the sliding cover assembly is simple.
