[0042] 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.

[0043] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a storage box assembly for a vehicle is preferably but not limited to being used in a car seat. The storage box assembly mainly includes: a main body 1, a storage box 2, a limiting member 3 and an elastic member 4.

[0044] The main body 1 mainly includes a shell 11 and a bottom plate 12, and the bottom plate 12 is detachably fixedly connected to the shell 11 by screws. The storage box 2 is movably arranged on the main body 1, and a front decorative plate fixedly connected to the storage box 2 is provided on the front side of the storage box 2, and a handle is provided on the decorative plate, and the storage box 2 has an open position (such as Figure 1 ) and a closed position (as shown) Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the storage box 2 can move between the open position and the closed position. The storage box 2 is provided with a first limiting protrusion 21 and a second limiting protrusion 22 along its sliding direction, and a third limiting protrusion 110 is provided on the main body 1. When the storage box 2 is in the closed position, the first limiting protrusion 21 abuts against the third limiting protrusion 110, and the third limiting protrusion 110 limits the storage box 2 from continuing to slide inward. When the storage box 2 moves to the open position, the second limiting protrusion 22 abuts against the third limiting protrusion 110, and the third limiting protrusion 110 limits the storage box 2 from continuing to slide outward. By setting the first limiting protrusion 21, the second limiting protrusion 22 and the third limiting protrusion 110, the inner and outer limit positions of the storage box 2 are limited to ensure that the storage box 2 will not detach from the main body 1. And a slide rail is provided on the main body 1 to facilitate the storage box 2 to slide inward and outward.

[0045] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a limiting groove 10 is provided on the main body 1, and a limiting member 3 is provided on the storage box 2, which is integrally or separately provided with the main body 1, and the limiting member 3 is preferably a limiting steel wire. The limiting member 3 is movably provided in the limiting groove 10, and specifically, one end of the limiting member 3 away from the storage box 2 is bent to form a hook, and the hook is movably provided in the limiting groove 10. During use, when the storage box 2 is in the closed position, the limiting member 3 limits the storage box 2 from moving outward toward the open position. At this time, the hook of the limiting member 3 is in the second slot section 102, and the storage box 2 is pushed inward, and the relative position of the limiting member 3 in the limiting groove 10 changes, and the hook on the limiting member 3 moves to the third slot section 103, and the limiting member 3 releases the limit of the storage box 2, and the storage box 2 can move outward toward the open position. In the process of the storage box 2 moving outward, the hook of the limiting member 3 slides along the third slot section 103.

[0046] Preferably, an elastic member 4 is provided between the storage box 2 and the main body 1. The elastic member 4 is a coil spring. Two coil springs are provided and are symmetrically arranged at the two sides of the bottom of the storage box 2 to ensure that the storage box 2 is subjected to balanced force. When the storage box 2 is in the closed position, the elastic force of the elastic member 4 causes the storage box 2 to have a tendency to move outward toward the open position. When the storage box 2 is pushed inward to release the limit member 3 from limiting the storage box 2, the elastic force of the elastic member 4 drives the storage box 2 to move outward toward the open position.

[0047] In this embodiment, the limiting member 3 is arranged on the bottom surface of the storage box 2, and the elastic member 4 is located below the storage box 2. When the storage box 2 is in the open position, the closed position, and any position between the open position and the closed position, the limiting member 3 and the elastic member 4 are both shielded by the storage box 2. There is no exposed locking mechanism, which ensures that the storage box assembly is aesthetically pleasing.

[0048] In actual use, the present embodiment is provided with a limit groove 10 on the main body 1, and a limit member 3 is provided on the storage box 2. The limit member 3 is movably arranged in the limit groove 10. When the storage box 2 is in the closed position, the limit member 3 can limit the storage box 2, restricting the storage box 2 from moving outward toward the open position, and preventing the storage box 2 from being opened by mistake due to factors such as vibration. The structure is very simple. When the storage box 2 needs to be opened, the storage box 2 is pushed inward, so that the limit member 3 can release the limiting effect on the storage box 2. Under the action of the elastic member 4 (coil spring), the storage box 2 is automatically opened, and the operation is simple.

[0049] like Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the limiting groove 10 includes a first groove section 101, a second groove section 102, a third groove section 103 and a fourth groove section 104 which are connected in sequence, and the fourth groove section 104 is connected to the first groove section 101. One end (i.e., the hook portion) of the limiting member 3 away from the storage box 2 can slide from the first groove section 101 into the second groove section 102, can slide from the second groove section 102 into the third groove section 103, can slide from the third groove section into the fourth groove section 104, and can slide from the fourth groove section 104 into the first groove section 101. The hook portion of the limiting member 3 can only move in one direction in the first groove section 101, the second groove section 102, the third groove section 103 and the fourth groove section 104, and cannot move in the opposite direction.

[0050] Specifically, since a step surface 105 is provided between the first groove section 101 and the second groove section 102, between the second groove section 102 and the third groove section 103, between the third groove section 103 and the fourth groove section 104, and between the fourth groove section 104 and the first groove section 101, the step surface 105 limits the end of the limiting member 3 away from the storage box 2 (i.e., the hook portion) to only slide along a preset direction between the first groove section 101, the second groove section 102, the third groove section 103 and the fourth groove section 104, and cannot slide in the opposite direction, thereby ensuring reliable movement.

[0051] The first slot section 101, the second slot section 102, the third slot section 103 and the fourth slot section 104 are connected end to end in sequence, and a limiting boss 100 is formed on the main body 1. The first slot section 101, the second slot section 102, the third slot section 103 and the fourth slot section 104 are arranged around the circumference of the limiting boss 100; the first slot section 101 and the second slot section 102 form a V-shaped groove. The limiting member 3 has a limiting hook 30 at one end away from the storage box 2, and the limiting hook 30 is movably arranged in the limiting slot 10. When the storage box 2 is in the closed position, the limiting hook 30 is in the second slot section 102, and the limiting hook 30 is hooked on the limiting boss 100, limiting the storage box 2 from moving outward toward the open position.

[0052] Optionally, a rack portion 120 is provided on the main body 1 along the sliding direction of the storage box 2, and a damping member 20 is provided on the storage box 2. The damping member 20 has a gear, and the gear is meshed with the rack portion 120. When the storage box 2 switches between the open position and the closed position, the gear rolls along the rack portion 120. In actual use, when the storage box 2 is opened, the gear on the damping member 20 is meshed with the rack portion 120 and rolls along the rack portion 120 to guide the movement, and the damping member 20 provides damping when the storage box 2 is opened, preventing the storage box 2 from opening too fast, eliminating the movement gap, and providing a good user experience.

[0053] During use, when the storage box 2 is in the closed position, the hook of the limiting member 3 is in the second slot section 102 of the limiting groove 10, and the hook is hooked on the limiting boss 100 to prevent the storage box 2 from moving outward (i.e., moving to the open position). At this time, the limiting member 3 limits the storage box 2 from opening outward. When the storage box 2 needs to be opened, the storage box 2 is pushed inward, and the hook of the limiting member 3 moves from the second slot section 102 of the limiting groove 10 to the third slot section 103 and cannot move to the first slot section 101. At this time, the storage box 2 is no longer restricted by the limiting member 3 to move outward to the open position. Under the action of the coil spring, the storage box 2 automatically opens outward, and at this time, the gear on the damping member 20 rolls along the rack portion 120, and the hook of the limiting member 3 moves from the third slot section 103 to the fourth slot section 104, and slides along the fourth slot section 104. Until the storage box 2 moves to the open position and stops.

[0054] When the storage box 2 is closed, the hook of the limiting member 3 can only slide from the fourth slot section 104 to the first slot section 101 because of the step surface 105. When the hook of the limiting member 3 slides to the second slot section 102, the hook is hooked on the limiting boss 100, and the storage box 2 returns to the closed position.

[0055] In this solution, the storage box assembly of this embodiment has a simple structure and provides a good operating feel for the user.
