[0027] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a storage slot integrated in the rear end of the central armrest box includes a housing 1, a base 2 fixedly mounted inside the housing 1, and a cover plate 3 rotatably mounted relative to the base 2. In this embodiment, the housing 1 is fixedly mounted at the rear end of the central armrest box, and a clamping portion 1b extending inward is formed inside the housing 1. A clamping slot 2b is formed on the base 2. By inserting the clamping portion 1b into the clamping slot 2b, the base 2 can be fixedly mounted inside the housing 1. A rotating support component 4 is rotatably mounted on the base 2, wherein one end of the rotating support component 4 penetrates the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the cover plate 3. A recessed structure 1a is formed at the front end of the housing 1 corresponding to the position where the cover plate 3 is located. When the cover plate 3 is turned outward, the cover plate 3 can form a storage slot between the recessed structure 1a under the rotation guidance of the rotating support component 4. An elastic element 5 is also installed between the rotating support component 4 and the base 2, and the elastic element 5 exerts a reset force to make the cover plate 3 fit on the recessed structure 1a.
[0029] In this design, the storage slot that can be opened and closed is set at the rear end of the central armrest box, which makes reasonable use of the space in the car and makes it convenient for the middle passenger in the rear row to place and grab items such as mobile phones. Among them, the recessed structure 1a ensures a storage space for the storage slot, and the elastic element 5 ensures that the cover plate 3 can be automatically closed, reducing the overall space occupied by the storage slot.
[0030] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, the base 2 is provided with an assembly notch at a position corresponding to the rotation support component 4, and a support shaft 2a is installed at the lower end of the assembly notch, and the rotation support component 4 is rotatably installed on the support shaft 2a and is located in the assembly notch. The support shaft 2a can ensure that the rotation support component 4 can be stably installed, and the assembly notch ensures that the rotation support component 4 is assembled more compactly.
[0031] In this embodiment, the elastic element 5 is a torsion spring and is mounted on the support shaft 2a. The two ends of the torsion spring are respectively against the shell 1 and the rotating support component 4, so that the shell 1 and the rotating support component 4 can be directly assembled more compactly, thereby making the assembly between the shell 1 and the cover plate 3 more compact.
[0032] Combination Figures 6 to 8, a limiting portion 4a extends upward at the rear end of the rotating support component 4. When the cover 3 is opened to a certain extent, the limiting portion 4a can abut against the base 2 to limit the cover 3 from continuing to open. This can effectively avoid the opening distance being too large and affecting the service life of the elastic element 5. In this embodiment, the limiting portion 4a is constructed as a sheet structure, which can increase the contact area with the base 2 and ensure the limiting function. A buffer pad 6 that can abut against the limiting portion 4a is provided on the base 2. The buffer pad 6 can remove the force applied by the limiting portion 4a to the base 2 to ensure the service life of the limiting portion 4a. In this embodiment, the buffer pad 6 is preferably a rubber pad or a sponge pad, and is fixedly installed on the base 2 by gluing. This can also ensure that no abnormal sound occurs when the cover 3 is opened.
[0033] In this embodiment, the cover plate 3 is designed as an arc-shaped plate with a middle portion protruding outward, and the recessed structure 1a is an arc-shaped groove with a middle portion protruding inward. In the initial state, the elastic element 5 makes the two ends of the arc-shaped plate abut against the two ends of the arc-shaped groove, so that an open state is formed between the cover plate 3 and the recessed structure 1a. The arc-shaped cover plate 3 increases the storage space of the storage groove on the one hand, and on the other hand, it cooperates with the recessed structure 1a to form an open state, which is convenient for the middle passenger in the back row to directly place the mobile phone in the storage groove, eliminating the additional step of opening the cover plate 3. Similarly, buffer pads 6 are provided at the two ends of the arc-shaped groove corresponding to the abutment positions of the arc-shaped plates. The buffer pads 6 can not only unload the pressure exerted by the cover plate 3 on the housing 1, but also ensure that there will be no abnormal sound when the cover plate 3 is closed.
[0034] In order to ensure that the cover 3 is more stable when opened and closed, and at the same time ensure that the overall structure is more solid, two rotating support components 4 are rotatably installed on the base 2. The two rotating support components 4 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the base 2, and the left and right sides of the cover 3 are also fixedly connected to each rotating support component 4.
[0035] Specifically, Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Fig. 9 As shown, the front end of the rotating support part 4 is formed with a mounting groove 4b, and the cover plate 3 is formed with an extension block 3a assembled in the mounting groove 4b. By fitting the extension block 3a in the mounting groove 4b, the cover plate 3 and the base 2 can be fixedly connected. In addition, in order to further ensure the assembly strength, the rear end of the rotating support part 4 is also provided with a screw 7, which can pass through the mounting groove 4b and be connected with the extension block 3a, and a threaded hole 3b that cooperates with the screw 7 is formed at the end position of the extension block 3a.
[0036] In this embodiment, a vent 1c is provided on the shell 1. When the shell 1 is assembled at the rear end of the central armrest box, the vent 1c is aligned with the air outlet of the rear air conditioner to ensure the normal operation of the rear air conditioner.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Under the guidance of the present invention, ordinary technicians in this field can make a variety of similar expressions without violating the purpose and claims of the present invention, and such changes fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
