Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile interior decoration, in particular to a glove box and an automobile. Background Art

[0002] Cars have become an indispensable means of daily transportation for modern people. The glove box in cars has a long history and practical functions. It has been continued and developed, and has always brought convenience to the majority of users. The earliest glove box was used as a special space for placing driver gloves. However, nowadays people almost never wear gloves when driving, so the glove box has expanded to a general storage box. People usually put manuals, umbrellas, tools and other items in the glove box. Some glove boxes also have a lock function, which has a high degree of privacy, so they are deeply loved by users.

[0003] With the development of automobiles for more than a hundred years, glove boxes have also been developed and updated. There are two main types of glove boxes on the market now: tipping type and clamshell type. The two types of glove boxes have their own advantages and disadvantages, and their market shares are also comparable. Due to space and shape limitations, clamshell glove boxes are mostly used on cars, but there is a problem with the clamshell glove boxes on the market. That is, when there are more things stored in the glove box and the things are relatively small and round, when the glove box is opened, the things stored in it are easy to fall out from the side, causing inconvenience to the user and may even affect the driver's safe driving and cause danger. The general measure is to use the thickness of the glove box cover to make a little rib on the edges on both sides, and concave in the middle to form a basin-shaped pit structure. Due to the limited thickness of the cover, the pit formed is very shallow, which plays a small role in improving the falling of items. Utility Model Content

The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.

[0031] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art in the technical field of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6 , shown is a glove box in the first embodiment of the utility model, comprising a glove box shell 2 arranged in the automobile instrument panel and a glove box cover 1 rotatably arranged in the glove box shell 2, the glove box cover 1 is provided with a lower pressure strip 5 on a side close to the glove box shell 2, the glove box shell 2 is provided with an upper pressure strip 3 arranged in cooperation with the lower pressure strip 5, a blocking member 4 is provided between the lower pressure strip 5 and the upper pressure strip 3, and the blocking member 4 is made of flexible material. When the glove box cover 1 is opened, the lower pressure strip 5 is located at an end of the upper pressure strip 3 away from the inside of the glove box shell 2, so that the blocking member 4 is unfolded, and when the glove box cover 1 is closed, the lower pressure strip 5 is located at an end of the upper pressure strip 3 close to the inside of the glove box shell 2, so that the blocking member 4 is curled and retracted.

[0033] It should be noted that there are two of the upper pressure strip 3, the lower pressure strip 5 and the blocking member 4. A lower pressure strip 5 is provided on both sides of the glove box cover 1, and an upper pressure strip 3 is provided on both sides of the glove box shell 2. The blocking member 4 is provided between adjacent upper pressure strips 3 and lower pressure strips 5. For the convenience of explanation, the utility model only describes the structure of one side of the glove box.

[0034] It can be understood that the utility model provides an upper bead 3 in the glove box cover 1, provides an upper bead 3 in the glove box housing 2 that cooperates with the lower bead 5, and provides a blocking member 4 between the lower bead 5 and the upper bead 3. Since the blocking member 4 is made of a flexible material, when the glove box cover 1 is opened, the blocking member 4 will be unfolded. Since the lower bead 5 is located at the end of the upper bead 3 away from the inside of the glove box housing 2 when unfolded, the blocking member 4 will be unfolded between the lower bead 5 and the upper bead 3, blocking the glove box cover. The gap between the plate 1 and the side of the glove box housing 2 is formed, thereby preventing the items in the glove box housing 2 from falling from both sides; when the glove box cover 1 is retracted into the glove box housing 2, the blocking member 4 will be retracted, and because the lower pressing strip 5 is located at the end of the upper pressing strip 3 close to the inside of the glove box housing 2 when retracted, the blocking member 4 will be reversely unfolded in the glove box housing 2 to prevent the lower pressing strip 5 and the upper pressing strip 3 from being too close, causing the blocking member 4 to accumulate in the glove box housing 2, thereby affecting the normal retraction of the glove box cover 1;

[0035] The glove box in the utility model has a simple structure, low cost, low weight of the blocking member 4, good fuel economy, and the blocking member 4 is made of flexible material, easy to arrange, and good reusability.

[0036] Preferably, in this embodiment, the blocking member 4 is made of a mesh structure, and the blocking member 4 is fan-shaped when unfolded.

[0037] It is understandable that since the glove box is generally located at the co-pilot seat, the main driver's seat is a certain distance away from the co-pilot seat, and the driver needs to concentrate during driving, so the driver needs to take the required items from the glove box more conveniently. The blocking member 4 is made of a mesh structure, which can facilitate the driver to observe the items in the glove box through the gaps in the mesh structure, thereby facilitating the driver's operation. The mesh structure has good elasticity, which is not only convenient for unfolding and storing, but also, if the glove box is accidentally pulled beyond the limit distance, the mesh structure can also recover due to its own characteristics afterwards, which is conducive to long-term use.

[0038] Specifically, the glove box cover 1 includes a cover body 11 and a baffle assembly 12 located on one side of the cover body 11 close to the glove box shell 2, the baffle assembly 12 includes two side plates 121 relatively arranged on the left and right sides of the cover body 11 and a top plate 122 and a bottom plate 123 relatively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the cover body 11 respectively; a mounting groove 21 for accommodating the upper pressure strip 3 is provided in the side wall of the glove box shell 2, and a sliding space 9 is provided between the upper pressure strip 3 and the lower pressure strip 5 for the blocking member 4 to pass through; the lower pressure strip 5 is installed on the side plate 121 close to the side of the upper pressure strip 3, and the lower pressure strip 5 is located on the inner side of the side plate 121.

[0039] It can be understood that the space enclosed between the barrier assembly 12 and the glove box housing 2 is used to accommodate articles, and the articles are easy to fall from the angled gap between the barrier assembly 12 and the glove box housing 2, so a blocking member 4 is arranged at the gap, and the blocking member 4 is arranged in a fan shape, and the curvature of the blocking member 4 is adapted to the curvature of the gap, so that the upper and lower ends of the blocking member 4 can be tightened after being unfolded, and one side will not be tightened and the other half will be loose due to the size design, thereby affecting the blocking effect;

[0040] At the same time, by setting a mounting groove 21 in the side wall of the glove box shell 2 and setting the upper pressure strip 3 therein, during the opening of the glove box cover 1, the glove box cover 1 can be effectively avoided in the driving trajectory. Similarly, the lower pressure strip 5 is installed on the side panel 121 close to the side of the upper pressure strip 3, and the lower pressure strip 5 is located on the inner side of the side panel 121, so as to avoid it when the glove box moves. Therefore, the technical solution of the utility model does not need to additionally design the size of the glove box cover 1, and can be directly processed on the existing glove box cover 1 and the glove box shell 2, thereby improving the utilization rate of this product.

[0041] Furthermore, a first connecting portion 51 is provided on a side of the lower pressure strip 5 close to the interior of the glove box shell 2, and a second connecting portion 31 is provided on a side of the upper pressure strip 3 away from the interior of the glove box shell 2, and both sides of the blocking member 4 are detachably connected to the first connecting portion 51 and the second connecting portion 31 respectively through connecting components (not shown in the figure).

[0042] It can be understood that through this design structure, when the glove box cover 1 is opened and the blocking member 4 is unfolded, the blocking member 4 is completely located in the same plane, which is conducive to the complete tightening of the blocking member 4, and when the glove box cover 1 is closed and the blocking member 4 is retracted, the blocking member 4 will be bent once at the first connecting portion 51, and then bend again at the second connecting portion 31 to form an "S" shape, so that the middle part of the blocking member 4 can be fully unfolded in the sliding space 9, which can well hide the blocking member 4 and avoid the blocking member 4 from accumulating into a ball in the sliding space 9, thereby affecting the normal opening and closing of the blocking member 4. In addition, since a connecting assembly is provided, the blocking member can be easily disassembled, replaced and cleaned.

[0043] Specifically, the connecting assembly includes a dovetail groove (not shown in the figure) provided on the first connecting part 51 and the second connecting part 31 and an insert block (not shown in the figure) provided on both sides of the blocking member. The insert block is arranged in cooperation with the dovetail groove. When the blocking member needs to be installed, the installation can be completed by inserting the insert blocks on both sides of the blocking member into the dovetail grooves in the first connecting part and the second connecting part respectively. When disassembling, the operation is reversed to pull the insert block out of the dovetail groove. The structural form of the dovetail groove and the insert block is well known to those skilled in the art and is therefore not shown in the figure.

[0044] It should be noted that the two ends of the blocking member 4 can be connected to the first connecting portion 51 and the second connecting portion 31 by means of pressing, connecting pieces, etc. This is common knowledge in the connection field and is not limited here.

[0045] This embodiment also provides an installation method between a glove box shell and a glove box cover plate, wherein a rotating shaft is provided below the glove box shell, the glove box cover plate is sleeved on the rotating shaft, and is rotatably connected to the glove box shell through the rotating shaft.

[0046] In summary, the glove box in the above embodiments of the utility model has a simple structure, low cost, low weight of the blocking member, good fuel economy, and the blocking member is made of flexible material, easy to arrange, and has good reusability.

[0047] A second embodiment of the present utility model provides an automobile, comprising the glove box mentioned in the first embodiment.

[0048] In the description of this specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the utility model. In this specification, the schematic representation of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0049] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, and these all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
