DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangements of components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0036] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the present invention, its application, or uses.

[0037] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0038] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0039] According to a vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed in the present invention, Figures 1 to 8 As shown, it includes: a cup holder 100, a support column 104, a clamping plate 105, a biasing member 106, an arc plate 107 and a driving mechanism;

[0040] The cup holder 100 includes a cup holder bottom wall 101 and a cup holder side wall 102 extending upward along the outer periphery of the cup holder bottom wall 101 , and the cup holder side wall 102 is provided with an adjustment window 103 ;

[0041] The support column 104 is fixed to the outer periphery of the cup holder side wall 102;

[0042] The clamping plate 105 is hinged to the support column 104 , and the clamping plate 105 can enter the cup holder 100 through the adjustment window 103 ;

[0043] The biasing member 106 provides a biasing force to bias the clamping plate 105 into the cup holder 100 , and one free end of the biasing member 106 is fixed, and the other free end is connected to the clamping plate 105 ;

[0044] The arc plate 107 is slidably connected to the cup holder side wall 102 and is located at the inner periphery of the clamping plate 105 , and the arc plate 107 is provided with a rack 108 ;

[0045] The driving mechanism is disposed outside the cup holder 100 and comprises a motor 109 and a driving gear 110 coaxially connected to the rotating shaft of the motor 109. The driving gear 110 is engaged with the rack 108 to drive the arc plate 107, so that the arc plate 107 repeatedly moves between two states of shielding the adjustment window 103 and revealing the adjustment window 103, thereby controlling the clamping plate 105 to switch between two states of being located outside the cup holder 100 and being located inside the cup holder 100.

[0046] The driving gear 110 is driven to rotate by the motor 109, and the driving gear 110 engages with the rack 108 to drive the arc plate 107, so that the arc plate 107 is transformed into two states of shielding the adjustment window 103 and revealing the adjustment window 103. When the arc plate 107 shields the adjustment window 103, the arc plate 107 presses the clamping plate 105 outside the cup holder 100; when the arc plate 107 reveals the adjustment window 103, the arc plate 107 places the clamping plate 105 inside the cup holder 100 under the action of the biasing force provided by the biasing member 106; the biasing member 106 can be a torsion spring, which is compressed and in an energy storage state when the arc plate 107 shields the adjustment window 103, and is in a state of recovering to a natural state when the arc plate 107 reveals the adjustment window 103, so as to bias the clamping plate 105 into the cup holder 100 through the adjustment window 103. A support column 104 is provided on the periphery of the side wall 102 of the cup holder, and a clamping plate 105 is hinged to the support column 104. At this time, the clamping plate 105 can rotate around the axis of the support column 104. A torsion spring serving as a biasing member 106 has one free end fixed on the support shaft and the other free end fixed on the clamping plate 105. Therefore, when the curved plate 107 squeezes the clamping plate 105 to the outside of the cup holder 100, the torsion spring will be compressed and in an energy storage state; when the curved plate 107 exposes the adjustment window 103, the curved plate 107 does not cover the clamping plate 105, and the clamping plate 105 can enter the cup holder 100 under the action of the biasing force provided by the torsion spring.

[0047] The vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed in the present invention has the function of changing its use according to different needs of passengers within the limited space in the vehicle to achieve different effects. When the curved plate 107 blocks the adjustment window 103, the cup holder can be used as a storage box to facilitate passengers to store or take out items. When the curved plate 107 exposes the adjustment window 103, a clamping space is formed between the clamping plate 105 and the side wall 102 of the cup holder to facilitate the placement of cups of various diameters, thereby increasing the adaptability between the cup holder and the cups.

[0048] The vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed herein uses a motor 109 to drive a curved plate 107 to repeatedly move between two states of blocking an adjustment window 103 and revealing the adjustment window 103. Passengers can press a button that controls the rotation of the motor 109 to switch the curved plate 107 between the two states of blocking the adjustment window 103 and revealing the adjustment window 103, thereby facilitating use by passengers and improving comfort.

[0049] Figures 1 to 3 It is a structural schematic diagram of the vehicle-mounted cup holder in a state where the arc plate 107 reveals the adjustment window 103;

[0050] Figure 6 and Figure 7It is a structural schematic diagram of the vehicle-mounted cup holder in a state where the arc plate 107 covers the adjustment window 103 .

[0051] According to an embodiment of a vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed herein, Figure 3 As shown, the driving mechanism further includes at least one reduction gear 111 , one end of the reduction gear 111 is meshed with the driving gear 110 , and the other end of the reduction gear 111 is meshed with the rack 108 .

[0052] By providing the reduction gear 111, the high-speed rotation of the shaft of the motor 109 can be reduced in speed, so that the arc plate 107 can smoothly transition between the two states of shielding the adjustment window 103 and revealing the adjustment window 103, thereby reducing noise.

[0053] Specifically, a reduction gear 111 is sleeved on the support column 104, and the reduction gear 111 rotates around the axis of the support column 104. The reduction gear 111 is installed on the support column 104, which simplifies the installation process of the reduction gear 111 and allows the reduction gear 111 to rotate more smoothly.

[0054] According to an embodiment of a vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed herein, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, at least one end of the arc plate 107 along the depth direction of the cup holder 100 and the cup holder side wall 102 are provided with a slide rail 112 , and the other end is provided with a docking slide groove 113 matching the slide rail 112 .

[0055] By matching the slide rail 112 with the docking slide groove 113 , the arc plate 107 can be smoothly switched along a predetermined track between the two states of shielding the adjustment window 103 and revealing the adjustment window 103 .

[0056] In a specific implementation, the rack 108 can be arranged in the slide groove 113 as a slide rail 112 .

[0057] According to an embodiment of a vehicle cup holder disclosed herein, the relationship between the chord length L corresponding to the arc formed by the adjustment window 103 along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102 and the radius R of the circle where the arc is located is 1.5R≤L≤2R.

[0058] The straight length of the clamping plate 105 that can enter the cup holder 100 is slightly less than the chord length L. Within the range of the chord length 1.5R≤L≤2R, the clamping plate 105 enters the cup holder 100 through the adjustment window 103 and can move within a certain range in the cup holder 100, thereby completing the clamping of water cups of different diameters by the clamping plate 105.

[0059] Specifically, the clamping plate 105 is arranged in an arc shape along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102, and / or the clamping plate 105 is constructed as an elastic body, so that when the clamping plate 105 is located in the cup holder 100, it can clamp cups of different diameters.

[0060] According to an embodiment of a vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed herein, Figure 5 As shown, the clamping plate 105 includes a cylindrical body 114 sleeved on the outer circumference of the support column 104, and a clamping body 115 connected to the cylindrical body 114; the clamping body 115 is arc-shaped along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102, and the arc shape of the clamping body 115 is concentric with the arc shape of the arc plate 107.

[0061] The clamping plate 105 is arranged in an arc shape along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102, so that when the clamping plate 105 is located in the cup holder 100, it can clamp water cups with different diameters; in specific implementation, the clamping plate 105 is constructed as an elastic body, which also plays the role of clamping water cups with different diameters.

[0062] Specifically, one end of the biasing member 106 is connected to the outer periphery of the side wall of the cup holder 100, and the other end of the biasing member 106 is connected to the clamping body 115. The biasing member 106 may be a torsion spring, one end of which is fixed relative to the outer periphery of the side wall of the cup holder 100. In practical applications, a fixing rod 116 protrudes radially from the outer periphery of the side wall of the cup holder 100, one end of the torsion spring is fixed to the fixing rod 116, and the other end is fixed to the clamping body 115. The biasing force provided by the torsion spring in a compressed state can make the clamping body 115 enter the cup holder 100, and the torsion spring has a simple and common structure and low cost, which reduces the cost of producing the vehicle-mounted cup holder in this application.

[0063] Specifically, the ratio of the arc length of the arc plate 107 to the arc length of the clamping body 115 is 0.5-1.

[0064] According to an embodiment of a vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed herein, the arc plate 107 is arc-shaped along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102, and the arc shape of the arc plate 107 is concentrically arranged with the arc shape of the cup holder side wall 102. The arc plate 107 is arc-shaped along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102, and the inner space of the cup holder 100 can be used as a storage space to the maximum extent when the arc plate 107 blocks the exposed opening; the arc shape of the arc plate 107 is concentrically arranged with the arc shape of the cup holder side wall 102, and the arc plate 107 can slide along the circumferential direction of the cup holder side wall 102, so that the structure between the cup holder side wall 102 and the arc plate 107 is regular.

[0065] According to an embodiment of a vehicle-mounted cup holder disclosed herein, the biasing member 106 is a torsion spring. The torsion spring has a simple and common structure and low cost, which reduces the cost of producing the vehicle-mounted cup holder in the present application.
