At the same time, it should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the utility model and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the utility model described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0028] On the one hand, an embodiment of the utility model provides a glove box, including a box 1, a locking tongue 2, an actuator 3, an electric drive assembly 4 and a manual drive assembly 5. The locking tongue 2 is installed on the box 1 and is configured to extend or retract the box 1 to lock or unlock the box 1. The actuator 3 is connected to the locking tongue 2. The electric drive assembly 4 and the manual drive assembly 5 are both connected to the actuator 3 and are used to drive the actuator 3 to move toward the locking tongue 2 to retract the locking tongue 2 extended out of the box 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the box 1 is a structure that provides storage space for the glove box. The locking and unlocking of the box 1 is the locking and unlocking of the glove box. A lock tongue 2 is installed on the box 1, and the lock tongue 2 can extend or retract into the box 1. When the lock tongue 2 extends out of the box 1, the lock tongue 2 can cooperate with the locking structure of the glove box, such as a lock hook or a lock buckle, to limit the box 1, thereby achieving the locking and closing of the box 1. When the lock tongue 2 retracts into the box 1, the limit of the box 1 disappears, and the box 1 is unlocked, so that the box 1 can be opened. On this basis, Figure 2 As shown, an actuator 3 is provided which is docked with the lock tongue 2, and an electric drive component 4 and a manual drive component 5 which are both driven and connected to the actuator 3 are provided, wherein the electric drive component 4 and the manual drive component 5 can both drive the actuator 3 to move toward the lock tongue 2, so that when the box 1 needs to be unlocked, when the electric drive component 4 is powered on, the electric drive component 4 can drive the actuator 3 to move to squeeze the lock tongue 2, and correspondingly, when the electric drive component 4 fails to be powered on, the manual drive component 5 can drive the actuator 3 to move to squeeze the lock tongue 2, and finally the lock tongue 2 can be retracted into the box 1, so that the box 1 is unlocked and opened, and the glove box can be used normally both when the electric drive component 4 is powered on and when it is not powered on.

[0030] In addition, in the present embodiment, both manual and electric modes are provided to unlock and open the glove box, which not only ensures the normal use of the glove box in the event of a power outage or circuit failure of the vehicle, but also, during the installation and commissioning of the glove box, the glove box can be unlocked by the manual drive assembly 5 without the need to connect to an external circuit, thereby improving the convenience of installation and commissioning of the glove box.

[0031] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, after the locking tongue 2 is squeezed and retracted into the box 1 by the actuator 3, the box 1 is opened, the locking tongue 2 is separated from the actuator 3, and the locking tongue 2 can be reset to extend out of the box 1 by the expansion of an elastic structure such as a spring or an elastic steel sheet. Correspondingly, after the actuator 3 moves and squeezes the locking tongue 2, the box 1 is opened, and the actuator 3 can be reset by the expansion of an elastic structure such as an elastic or elastic steel sheet, or directly driven by the electric drive component 4 or the manual drive component 5 to reset the actuator 3, so as to unlock the box 1 next time.

[0032] It should be noted that the locking tongue 2 of the box 1 can be set on one side or both sides of the box 1 along the extension and retraction direction of the locking tongue 2, and the actuator 3 is only set at the locking tongue 2 on one side of the box 1. Single-sided opening is achieved through an electric drive component 4 and a manual drive component 5, which can effectively reduce the number of parts of the entire glove box, thereby simplifying the structure of the glove box and reducing the failure rate caused by the complex structure.

[0033] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the box 1 is a bucket-shaped structure with an open top, usually formed by integral injection molding, and the lower end of the box 1 can rotate relative to the instrument panel in front of the co-pilot seat of the car, so that the box 1 can be moved into the instrument panel for locking or unlocked and moved out of the instrument panel by rotating the box 1. Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the box 1 may be provided with reinforcing ribs, and an anti-skid structure may be provided inside the box 1. The reinforcing ribs may enhance the bearing strength of the box 1, and the anti-skid structure may slow down or prevent the sliding of the items stored in the box 1. The anti-skid structure may be an anti-skid strip or an anti-skid protrusion. Figure 5 As shown, the outer side of the trunk 1 is covered with an outer panel 8, the shape of which matches the shape of the instrument panel. After the trunk 1 is rotated and moved into the instrument panel and locked, the outer panel 8 and the outer wall of the instrument panel have a smooth transition, thereby ensuring the overall aesthetics of the co-pilot instrument panel of the car.

[0034] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking tongue 2 on the box 1 is located on the side wall of the box 1 along the width direction of the car, and the locking tongue 2 is extended and retracted along the width direction of the car to achieve locking and unlocking of the box 1. In other embodiments of the utility model, the locking tongue 2 on the box 1 can be arranged along the height direction or the length direction of the car, and correspondingly, the locking tongue 2 is extended and retracted up and down along the height direction of the car or forward and backward along the length direction of the car to achieve locking and unlocking of the box 1.

[0035] It should be noted that in the prior art, there are separate electric drive type opening and closing glove boxes and separate manual drive type opening and closing glove boxes. In this embodiment, the electric drive type can be improved based on the separate manual opening and closing glove box in the prior art, and an electric drive component 4 can be added. The manual drive type can also be improved based on the separate electric opening and closing glove box in the prior art, and a manual drive component 5 can be added. In this way, the glove box of the utility model can share the mold with the glove box in the prior art, thereby reducing the design cost and manufacturing cost.

[0036] Optionally, the glove box also includes a guard plate 6, which is arranged on the co-pilot instrument panel of the car. The electric drive component 4 and the manual drive component 5 are both installed on the guard plate 6, the actuator 3 is slidably installed on the guard plate 6, the box 1 is rotatably connected to the guard plate 6, and the guard plate 6 is provided with a lock hole 61 located on the moving track of the actuator 3. The lock hole 61 is correspondingly inserted into the lock tongue 2 extended from the box 1 to lock and close the box 1.

[0037] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to ensure the opening and closing stability of the box 1, in this embodiment, a guard plate 6 can be provided at the co-pilot instrument panel of the automobile, so that the guard plate 6 and the co-pilot instrument panel form an integrated structure, wherein the electric drive component 4 and the manual drive component 5 are both installed on the guard plate 6 to ensure the structural stability of the electric drive component 4 and the manual drive component 5 when driving the actuator 3 to move. At the same time, the actuator 3 is slidably installed on the guard plate 6 to improve the stability of the actuator 3 when moving. On this basis, the box bucket 1 is rotatably connected to the guard plate 6, and the guard plate 6 is provided with a lock hole 61 located on the moving track of the actuator 3, so that the electric drive component 4 and the manual drive component 5 can both drive the actuator 3 to move into the lock hole 61. At the same time, the lock hole 61 can be used for the lock tongue 2 extended from the box bucket 1 to be correspondingly inserted, so as to achieve the locking of the box bucket 1. In this way, through the cooperation between the lock tongue 2 and the lock hole 61, the guard plate 6 limits the position of the box bucket 1 through the lock hole 61 on the lock tongue 2 to achieve the purpose of locking and closing the box bucket 1. When unlocking is required, the actuator 3 only needs to be moved into the lock hole 61, the lock tongue 2 is squeezed out of the lock tongue 2 and retracted into the box bucket 1, which effectively improves the opening and closing stability of the box bucket 1.

[0038] It should be noted that if Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the lower end of the box bucket 1 along the height direction of the car is rotatably connected to the guard plate 6, and its rotation axis is consistent with the width direction of the car. With this arrangement, after the box bucket 1 and the guard plate 6 are unlocked, under the action of gravity, the box bucket 1 can rotate relative to the guard plate 6 to realize the opening of the box bucket 1, which is convenient for taking and placing items in the box bucket 1.

[0039] Optionally, a guide frame 62 is provided on the guard plate 6, the actuator 3 is slidably installed in the guide frame 62, and is connected to the guide frame 62 through the first elastic member 31. When the actuator 3 moves into the lock hole 61 along the guide frame 62 and the lock tongue 2 is retracted into the box 1, the first elastic member 31 is in a stretched state.

[0040] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the elastic structure such as the first elastic member 31 is divided into a normal state, a compressed state and a stretched state according to whether it is subjected to external force and before and after being subjected to the external force. Among them, the elastic structure is in a normal state when it is not subjected to external force, in a compressed state when the elastic structure is subjected to an external force that shortens its length, and in a stretched state when the elastic structure is subjected to an external force that lengthens its length.

[0041] In order to ensure the stable sliding of the actuator 3 and the repeatability of the locking and unlocking of the box 1, in this embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, a guide frame 62 is provided on the guard plate 6, and the actuator 3 is slidably installed in the guide frame 62. The actuator 3 can be moved into the lock hole 61 along the guide frame 62. With this arrangement, the actuator 3 can be guided by the guide frame 62 to ensure the accuracy and stability of the actuator 3 when it moves into the lock hole 61. On this clamping, the actuator 3 is connected to the guide frame 62 through the first elastic member 31, and when the actuator 3 moves into the lock hole 61 to unlock the box 1, the first elastic member 31 is in a stretched state. In this way, after the electric drive component 4 or the manual drive component 5 drives the actuator 3 to move into the lock hole 61 along the guide frame 62, the first elastic member 31 is stretched and accumulates elastic potential energy. When the driving force output by the electric drive component 4 or the manual drive component 5 disappears, the elastic potential energy of the first elastic member 31 is released, and the first elastic member 31 changes from a stretched state to a normal state, thereby pulling the actuator 3 to move out of the lock hole 61 along the guide frame 62 and reset, leaving the lock hole 61 empty for the insertion of the lock tongue 2 when the box 1 is closed again. At the same time, the reset actuator 3 can be driven again by the electric drive component 4 or the manual drive component 5 to move into the lock hole 61 for unlocking.

[0042] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, the first elastic member 31 is a spring, which is extended along the moving direction of the actuator 3, and the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the actuator 3 and the guide frame 62. In other embodiments of the utility model, the first elastic member 31 can also be an elastic steel sheet, and after the elastic steel sheet is bent, the two folded edges are respectively connected to the actuator 3 and the guide frame 62.

[0043] Optionally, the electric drive assembly 4 includes an electric telescopic part 41 and a moving push rod 42. The actuator 3 is provided with a sliding groove 32 extending along its moving direction. The electric telescopic part 41 is installed on the guard plate 6. One end of the moving push rod 42 is drive-connected to the electric telescopic part 41. The other end of the moving push rod 42 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 32. The electric telescopic part 41 is used to drive the moving push rod 42 to approach or move away from the lock hole 61.

[0044] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, an electric telescopic component 41 and a moving push rod 42 are provided to form an electric drive assembly 4, wherein the electric telescopic component 41 is installed on the guard plate 6 to ensure working stability, and one end of the moving push rod 42 is drivingly connected to the electric telescopic component 41, so that the moving push rod 42 is driven to reciprocate by the telescopic force output by the electric telescopic component 41, so that the moving push rod 42 is close to or away from the lock hole 61. On this basis, a sliding groove 32 extending along its moving direction is provided on the actuator 3, and the other end of the moving push rod 42 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 32. In this way, when the electric telescopic component 41 drives the moving push rod 42 to approach the locking hole 61, the moving push rod 42 can move along the sliding groove 32 and resist the groove wall of the sliding groove 32. At this time, the driving force of the electric telescopic component 41 can be transmitted to the actuator 3 through the moving push rod 42 and the groove wall of the sliding groove 32, thereby driving the actuator 3 to move toward the locking hole 61, so as to move into the locking hole 61 to realize the unlocking and opening of the box bucket 1. At the same time, after completing the unlocking and opening of the box bucket 1, the electric telescopic component 41 can drive the moving push rod 42 away from the locking hole 61 for reset, and the actuator 3 is in a free state at this time, and can be squeezed and reset by the lock tongue 2 when the lock tongue 2 is inserted into the lock hole 61 again, or reset under the drive of the first elastic component 31. At the same time, when the manual drive component 5 drives the actuator 3 to move into the lock hole 61, since the moving push rod 42 is stationary, the actuator 3 moves relative to the moving push rod 42, so that the end of the moving push rod 42 is separated from the groove wall of the sliding groove 32 between the moving push rod 42 and the lock hole 61 and slides along the sliding groove 32 away from the lock hole 61, thereby avoiding the moving push rod 42 from interfering with the movement of the actuator 3 and ensuring the working stability of the manual drive component 5.

[0045] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, in order to reduce the moving distance of the moving push rod 42 , when the moving push rod 42 is located at the initial position, the moving push rod 42 is in contact with the groove wall of the sliding groove 32 between the moving push rod 42 and the locking hole 61 .

[0046] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the electric telescopic member 41 is an electric push rod. In other embodiments of the utility model, a telescopic electric cylinder or a linear motor can be provided as the electric telescopic member 41.

[0047] It should be noted that, in the present invention, in order to ensure the installation stability of the electric telescopic member 41, Figure 3 As shown, a fixing frame 64 is provided on the guard plate 6, and the electric telescopic member 41 is respectively connected to the guard plate 6 and the fixing frame 64. In this clamping, the fixing frame 64 can also be connected to the structure inside the co-pilot instrument panel or the inner side of the wall panel of the co-pilot instrument panel, thereby improving the installation stability of the guard plate 6, and then improving the opening and closing stability of the glove box.

[0048] Optionally, the guard plate 6 includes a box accommodating groove, and the box 1 rotates relative to the guard plate 6 to enter the box accommodating groove or move out of the box accommodating groove; the locking hole 61 is located on the groove wall at one end of the box accommodating groove along the rotation axis of the box 1, and the electric telescopic part 41 is located between the groove walls at both ends of the box accommodating groove along the rotation axis of the box 1; the electric drive assembly 4 also includes a bending rod 43, and the driving end of the electric telescopic part 41 is located on the side of the electric telescopic part 41 away from the locking hole 61, one end of the bending rod 43 is connected to the driving end of the electric telescopic part 41, and the other end is bent and extended toward the shortening direction of the driving end of the electric telescopic part 41, and one end of the movable push rod 42 is connected to the other end of the bending rod 43.

[0049] In this embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the guard plate 6 includes a trunk accommodating groove, specifically, the guard plate 6 includes an upper guard plate and a lower guard plate, the trunk accommodating groove is composed of an upper guard plate and a lower guard plate, the upper guard plate and the lower guard plate are spaced apart from each other, and are bent structures corresponding to each other, the edge of the upper guard plate is bent and extended toward the lower guard plate, the edge of the lower guard plate is bent and extended toward the upper guard plate, and is connected to the edge of the upper guard plate, thereby forming a hollow structure with an opening toward the co-pilot seat of the automobile, which is the trunk accommodating groove, and the trunk 1 rotates relative to the guard plate 6 to enter the trunk accommodating groove or move out of the trunk accommodating groove to realize the locking, closing and unlocking of the trunk 1.

[0050] On this basis, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the electric telescopic member 41 is located between the two side walls of the box container accommodating groove along the rotation axis of the box container 1, so that the maximum dimension of the entire glove box along the rotation axis of the box container 1 is the maximum extension dimension of the electric telescopic member 41, avoiding the setting of the electric telescopic member 41 to increase the size of the glove box, which is conducive to the electric modification of the conventional manually opened and closed glove box. Correspondingly, in order to improve the driving stability of the electric telescopic member 41 on the moving push rod 42, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, the lock hole 61 is located on the groove wall at one end of the box bucket accommodating groove along the rotation axis of the box bucket 1, and the driving end of the electric telescopic member 41 is located on the side of the electric telescopic member 41 away from the lock hole 61. The electric drive assembly 4 is also provided with a bending rod 43, wherein one end of the bending rod 43 is connected to the driving end of the electric telescopic member 41, and the other end is bent and extends in the shortening direction of the driving end of the electric telescopic member 41, and one end of the moving push rod 42 is connected to the other end of the bending rod 43. In this way, when the driving end of the electric telescopic member 41 is extended, the bending rod 43 can drive the moving push rod 42 to approach the lock hole 61, so as to drive the actuator 3 into the lock hole 61. When the driving end of the electric telescopic member 41 is shortened, the bending rod 43 can drive the moving push rod 42 away from the lock hole 61. The space on the glove box for the driving end of the electric telescopic member 41 to extend is the space on the side of the electric telescopic member 41 away from the lock hole 61. The space volume is relatively large, which is conducive to the control of the movement of the moving push rod 42.

[0051] It should be noted that, in the present invention, according to the different extension directions of the locking tongue 2 on the box 1, the locking hole 61 can be arranged on any end groove wall of the box accommodating groove along the width direction, height direction or length direction of the automobile. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the extension and retraction direction of the lock tongue 2 is the width direction of the car. Correspondingly, the lock hole 61 is arranged on the groove wall at one end of the box accommodating groove along the width direction of the car. The actuator 3 is slidably installed on the guard plate 6 along the width direction of the car. The driving ends of the electric drive component 4 and the manual drive component 5 installed on the guard plate 6 are both located on one side of the guard plate 6 along the width direction to be driven and connected with the actuator 3.

[0052] It should be noted that in the present utility model, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the lower end of the box 1 is connected to the bottom wall of the box receiving groove by rotation around the width direction of the car, and the box 1 can be moved into and out of the box receiving groove by rotating around the rotation axis to achieve the locking and unlocking of the glove box. Figure 5 As shown, the outer side of the box 1 is covered with an outer panel 8 matching the shape of the co-pilot instrument panel, and the box 1 is rotatably connected to the guard plate 6 by the rotatable connection between the lower end of the outer panel 8 and the lower guard plate.

[0053] It should be noted that in the present invention, Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, a limit block 11 is provided on the side wall of the box bucket 1 along the axial direction in which the box bucket 1 is rotatably connected to the guard plate 6, and a limit slide groove 63 is provided on the side wall of the guard plate 6 along the axial direction in which the box bucket 1 is rotatably connected, and the limit block 11 is located in the limit slide groove 63, and when the box bucket 1 rotates relative to the guard plate 6, the limit block 11 moves along the limit slide groove 63. In this way, after the box bucket 1 is unlocked, the box bucket 1 rotates relative to the guard plate 6 to open the glove box, and the limit block 11 moves along the limit slide groove 63 and abuts against the groove wall of the limit slide groove 63, thereby limiting the opening angle of the box bucket 1 and improving the opening and closing stability of the box bucket 1.

[0054] Optionally, the extending direction of the movable push rod 42 is parallel to the plane where the locking hole 61 is located. When the movable push rod 42 drives the actuator 3 to move into the locking hole 61 and the locking tongue 2 retracts into the box 1, the movable push rod 42 abuts against the edge of the locking hole 61.

[0055] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the moving push rod 42 is extended along the plane where the lock hole 61 is located, that is, the extension direction of the moving push rod 42 is parallel to the plane where the lock hole 61 is located. When the moving push rod 42 drives the actuator 3 to move into the lock hole 61 through the sliding groove 32, the lock tongue 2 is squeezed back into the box 1 by the actuator 3, and the moving push rod 42 and the edge of the lock hole 61 are abutted. In this way, when the electric telescopic member 41 drives the moving push rod 42 to move toward the lock hole 61, the moving push rod 42 drives the actuator 3 to move into the lock hole 61 so that the lock tongue 2 retracts into the box 1. After the box 1 is unlocked, since the moving push rod 42 and the edge of the lock hole 61 are abutted, even if the electric telescopic member 41 continues to output driving force, the moving push rod 42 will not continue to move, thereby ensuring the stability of the electric drive assembly 4 when electrically unlocking the box 1.

[0056] Optionally, the manual drive assembly 5 includes a moving block 51 and a button 52, the button 52 is mounted on the moving block 51, the moving block 51 is fitted with the actuator 3, and when the button 52 is pressed to drive the moving block 51 to move, the moving block 51 drives the actuator 3 to move toward the lock tongue 2.

[0057] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, a moving block 51 and a button 52 are provided to form a manual drive assembly 5, wherein the button 52 is mounted on the moving block 51, and the moving block 51 is arranged in close contact with the actuator 3. When the glove box needs to be opened and closed manually, the driver and the passenger only need to press the button 52 to apply pressure to the moving block 51, so that the button 52 moves toward the moving block 51, and the moving block 51 can drive the actuator 3 to move toward the lock tongue 2, thereby realizing manual unlocking of the box 1. On this basis, since the moving block 51 and the actuator 3 are arranged in close contact, when the electric drive assembly 4 drives the actuator 3 to move toward the lock tongue 2, the moving block 51 is separated from the actuator 3, so as to avoid the moving block 51 interfering with the movement of the actuator 3 when the manual drive assembly 5 is not in use, and effectively improve the stability of the glove box.

[0058] It should be noted that in the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, an outer panel 8 matching the outer wall of the co-pilot instrument panel is provided on the outer side of the box 1, and a notch is provided on the outer panel 8 for the button 52 to be placed and moved, so that the driver and passengers can apply pressure to the button 52 to realize manual opening and closing of the glove box.

[0059] It should be noted that in the present invention, when a guide frame 62 is installed on the guard plate 6 of the glove box, two connected guide slides are provided on the guide frame 62, the actuator 3 is slidably installed in one of the guide slides, and the moving block 51 is slidably installed in the other guide slide, and the movement of the actuator 3 and the moving block 51 is guided by the two guide slides respectively.

[0060] It should be noted that, in the present invention, when the actuator 3 is connected to the guide frame 62 through the first elastic member 31, the first elastic member 31 can drive the actuator 3 to reset, or when the locking tongue 2 extends out of the box bucket 1 again to lock the box bucket 1, the locking tongue 2 can push the actuator 3 to reset, and when the actuator 3 moves in the opposite direction and resets, it can push the moving block 51 to reset, thereby ensuring the repeatability of manually opening and closing the glove box.

[0061] Optionally, the moving direction of the moving block 51 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the actuator 3, and a first plane 511 for fitting with the actuator 3 is provided at one end of the moving block 51 facing the actuator 3, and the first plane 511 is inclined relative to the moving direction of the actuator 3, and / or a second plane 33 for fitting with the moving block 51 is provided at one end of the actuator 3 facing the moving block 51, and the second plane 33 is inclined relative to the moving direction of the actuator 3.

[0062] It should be noted that if Figure 7 As shown, the first plane 511 is an end surface of the moving block 51 facing the actuator 3 , and the second plane 33 is an end surface of the actuator 3 facing the moving block 51 .

[0063] In this embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, the moving direction of the moving block 51 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the actuator 3, and the end of the moving block 51 facing the actuator 3 is provided with a first plane 511 that is in contact with the actuator 3, and the first plane 511 is inclined relative to the moving direction of the actuator 3. In this way, when the moving block 51 moves toward the actuator 3, the moving force can be transmitted to the actuator 3 through the first plane 511, so that the actuator 3 moves along the first plane 511. Since the first plane 511 is inclined relative to the moving direction of the actuator 3, the movement of the actuator 3 along the first plane 511 can be divided into movement toward the lock tongue 2 and movement toward the button 52, and the movement of the actuator 3 toward the lock tongue 2 can drive the lock tongue 2 to retract the compartment 1, thereby finally realizing the manual unlocking of the glove box.

[0064] In this embodiment or other embodiments of the utility model, the actuator 3 is provided with a second plane 33 that is arranged in contact with the moving block 51. When the moving block 51 moves toward the actuator 3, the moving block 51 moves along the second plane 33. At the same time, the moving block 51 also transmits the moving force to the actuator 3 through the second plane 33. Since the second plane 33 is inclined relative to the moving direction of the actuator 3, the moving force transmitted from the moving block 51 to the actuator 3 can be divided into a moving force toward the lock tongue 2 and a moving force away from the button 52. Driven by the moving force toward the lock tongue 2, the actuator 3 can squeeze the lock tongue 2 to retract it into the box 1, and finally realize the manual unlocking of the glove box. Of course, when the moving block 51 is provided with a first plane 511 and the actuator 3 is provided with a second plane 33, the first plane 511 and the second plane 33 are parallel and in contact with each other.

[0065] Optionally, the glove box further comprises a second elastic member 7, which is mounted on the box 1 and connected to the locking tongue 2. When the actuator 3 drives the locking tongue 2 to retract the box 1, the second elastic member 7 is in a compressed state.

[0066] In this embodiment, if Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a second elastic member 7 is provided on the bucket 1 and connected to the locking tongue 2. When the actuator 3 squeezes the locking tongue 2 to retract the bucket 1, the second elastic member 7 is in a compressed state. With this arrangement, after the bucket 1 is unlocked and opened, the squeezing force of the actuator 3 on the locking tongue 2 disappears, and the second elastic member 7 relaxes and outputs an elastic driving force, thereby driving the locking tongue 2 to extend out of the bucket 1 and reset, so that the locking tongue 2 can complete the locking of the bucket 1 after the bucket 1 is closed.

[0067] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the second elastic member 7 is a spring, which is extended along the extension direction of the lock tongue 2, and the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the lock tongue 2 and the box bucket 1. In other embodiments of the utility model, the second elastic member 7 can also be an elastic steel sheet, and after the elastic steel sheet is bent, the two folded edges are respectively connected to the lock tongue 2 and the box bucket 1. Specifically, a moving rod is also provided in the box bucket 1 along the moving direction of the lock tongue 2, and the moving rod is slidably installed in the box bucket 1. One end of the moving rod is connected to the box bucket 1 through the second elastic member 7, and the other end as the lock tongue 2 can extend or retract into the box bucket 1 through the locking opening on the box bucket 1. Furthermore, in the utility model, the number of locking tongues 2 can be set to two, and the two locking tongues 2 are located on opposite sides of the box bucket 1. One end of one of the locking tongues 2 is squeezed and compressed back into the box bucket 1 by the actuator 3, and the other end is connected to the other locking tongue 2 through a rotating plate or a gear, so that when one locking tongue 2 is squeezed and compressed back into the box bucket 1 by the actuator 3, the other locking tongue 2 can be retracted into the box bucket 1 synchronously, effectively improving the stability of the box bucket 1 after locking and the convenience of unlocking.

[0068] On the other hand, an embodiment of the present invention provides a car, comprising the above-mentioned glove box.

[0069] The technical effect of the automobile in this embodiment is similar to the technical effect of the above-mentioned glove box, which will not be repeated here.

[0070] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
