DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] With the popularity of vehicles, users have put forward higher requirements for the functions of vehicle accessories. Vehicle accessories must not only meet people's basic daily use needs, but also meet the needs of convenient operation and space saving. Cup holders are important supporting accessories on vehicles. They can be used to place water cups or other beverage containers, which greatly solves the problem of placing users' drinking containers.

[0035] Currently, most vehicles have two cup placement devices on the auxiliary instrument panel. The depth of the cup holder is fixed and cannot accommodate cups of different heights. If the depth is too shallow, some taller cups will be unstable and the gear shifting operation will be affected. If the depth is too deep, some shorter cups will be difficult to take out, which is inconvenient for users.

[0036] Based on this, the present application proposes a cup holder, which controls the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 20 in the cup holder body 10 by setting a lifting mechanism 30 and a lifting plate 20 to adjust the depth of the cup holder body 10 so that the cup holder can be suitable for cups of different heights and is convenient for users to use.

[0037] The following describes in detail the technical solutions of one or more embodiments of the present application through specific embodiments. A cup holder, such as Figure 1 As shown, including:

[0038] The cup holder body 10 is located inside the vehicle body 50;

[0039] A lifting plate 20 is located inside the cup holder body 10;

[0040] The lifting mechanism 30 includes a driving module 31, a transmission module 32 and a lifting module 33 connected in sequence, wherein the lifting module 33 is connected to the lifting plate 20, and there is a transmission connection working condition and a non-transmission connection working condition between the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32;

[0041] When the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a transmission connection state, the driving module 31 can drive the transmission module 32 to drive the lifting module 33 to rise, so that the lifting plate 20 rises;

[0042] When the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a non-transmission connection state, the lifting module 33 descends under the action of its own gravity, so that the lifting plate 20 descends.

[0043] Specifically, the lifting mechanism 30 is used to connect with the lifting plate 20 to control the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 20. The lifting plate 20 is located in the cup holder body 10 and is parallel to the bottom of the cup holder body 10. The position of the lifting plate 20 in the cup holder body 10 affects the depth of the cup holder body 10, thereby affecting the depth that the cup holder body 10 can accommodate when a user places a cup or other objects in the cup holder body 10.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the working condition between the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 in the lifting mechanism 30 is the transmission connection working condition, the user can control the lifting plate 20 to rise by controlling the driving module 31; the user switches the working condition between the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 in the lifting mechanism 30 to the non-transmission connection working condition to realize the lowering of the lifting plate 20; when controlling the lifting plate 20 to rise, the user can control the driving module 31 to raise the lifting plate 20 to a suitable position according to actual needs, so that the depth of the cup holder is at a suitable depth of use; when controlling the lifting plate 20 to fall, the user switches the working condition between the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 from the transmission connection working condition to the non-transmission connection working condition, so that the lifting module 33 drives the lifting plate 20 to fall under the action of its own gravity, until the lifting plate 20 falls to a suitable position, the user switches the working condition between the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 from the non-transmission connection working condition to the transmission connection working condition, and the lifting plate 20 stops falling. The present application controls the rise of the lifting plate 20 by driving the driving module 31, and controls the descent of the lifting plate 20 by switching the working conditions between the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32. This can not only flexibly control the depth of the cup holder, but also avoid complicated operations for the user, thereby improving the convenience of the cup holder.

[0045] In some embodiments, Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the driving module 31 includes a fixedly connected power input member 311 and an end gear 312, and the power input member 311 can move up and down relative to the vehicle body 50 under the action of an external force, and the transmission module 32 includes a transmission gear set 321;

[0046] When the power input member 311 moves in the first direction relative to the vehicle body 50, the face gear 312 is disengaged from the transmission gear set 321, so that the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a non-transmission connection state;

[0047] When the power input member 311 moves in the second direction relative to the vehicle body 50, the face gear 312 meshes with the transmission gear set 321, so that the driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a transmission connection state;

[0048] The first direction is opposite to the second direction.

[0049] Specifically, through the meshing connection between the end face gear 312 and the transmission gear set 321, the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a transmission connection state, and by controlling the power input member 311 to move in the first direction to drive the end face gear 312 to move in the first direction, the end face gear 312 is disengaged from the transmission gear set 321, thereby realizing that the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a non-transmission connection state. The power input member 311 can move in the second direction opposite to the first direction under the action of the restoring force, so that the end face gear 312 and the transmission gear set 321 are re-engaged to switch to the transmission connection state.

[0050] In this embodiment, it is defined that the transmission connection condition and the non-transmission connection condition of the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are realized by meshing and disengaging the end face gear 312 and the transmission gear set 321, so that the user can control the power input member 311 to move in the first direction to be in the non-transmission connection condition. In the non-transmission connection condition, the lifting plate 20 will drop under the action of gravity and its position will be unstable. The user releases the control of the power input member 311, and the power input member 311 can move in the second direction opposite to the first direction under the action of the restoring force to be in the transmission connection condition, so that the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in the transmission connection condition in a free state. In the transmission connection condition, the position of the lifting plate 20 is stable, which is convenient for the user to switch the working conditions of the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32, and also improves the stability of the cup holder.

[0051] In some embodiments, the face gear 312 is sleeved on the periphery of the power input member 311, the transmission gear set 321 is located above the face gear 312 and is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 50, and the transmission gear set 321 includes a meshing surface meshing with the face gear 312;

[0052] When the power input member 311 moves downward relative to the vehicle body 50, the face gear 312 is disengaged from the meshing surface;

[0053] When the power input member 311 moves upward relative to the vehicle body 50 , the end face gear 312 meshes with the meshing surface.

[0054] Specifically, the end face gear 312 and the power input member 311 are sleeve-fixedly connected, the transmission gear set 321 is rotationally connected to the vehicle body 50, and is meshed with the end face gear 312 through the meshing surface, the transmission gear set 321 is located above the end face gear 312, that is, the meshing surface is located above the end face gear 312, the top surface of the end face gear 312 is meshed with the meshing surface, the transmission gear set 321 is fixed relative to the vehicle body 50, the end face gear 312 can move downward under the drive of the power input member 311 to move away from the meshing surface, thereby releasing the meshing, and the end face gear 312 can move upward with the power input member 311 under the action of the restoring force to approach the meshing surface and re-engage.

[0055] In this embodiment, it is defined that the end face gear 312 moves downward to disengage from the meshing surface, that is, the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a non-transmission connection state; the end face gear 312 moves upward to re-engage with the meshing surface, that is, the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a transmission connection module. When the user needs the lifting plate 20 to descend, it can be achieved by simply pressing the power input member 311 to move it downward, which simplifies the user operation. When the user releases the pressure, the power input member 311 moves upward, so that the end face gear 312 re-engages with the meshing surface, the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in the transmission connection module, and the position of the lifting plate 20 is stable, which is convenient for the user to use the cup holder.

[0056] In some embodiments, the transmission gear set 321 includes a driving gear 3211 and a driven gear 3212. The driving gear 3211 is sleeved on the periphery of the power input member 311 and is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 50. The meshing surface is located on the driving gear 3211, and the driven gear 3212 is meshedly connected to the driving gear 3211.

[0057] In this embodiment, the driving gear 3211 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 50, and the meshing surface is provided on the driving gear 3211, through which the meshing surface is meshed and connected with the end face gear 312, and the driving gear 3211 is also provided with a gear meshed with the driven gear 3212 to mesh with the driven gear 3212, thereby driving the driven gear 3212 to rotate, thereby realizing transmission.

[0058] Specifically, the driving gear 3211 can be a gear with a meshing surface on the bottom surface and meshing teeth on the outer periphery, or it can be an end wheel 32111 and a driving wheel 32112 that are fixedly connected. The end gear and the driving wheel 32112 are both mounted on the periphery of the power input member 311, and the driving wheel 32112 is located above the end wheel 32111. The top of the end wheel 32111 and the bottom of the driving wheel 32112 are fixedly connected. The top of the driving wheel 32112 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 50, and the bottom of the end wheel 32111 is a meshing surface that is meshed with the top surface of the end gear 312. The driving wheel 32112 is meshed and connected to the driven gear 3212 to drive the driven gear 3212 to rotate. The end wheel 32111 is meshedly connected with the end gear 312 and can rotate with the end gear 312. Correspondingly, the driving wheel 32112 is fixedly connected with the end wheel 32111 and also rotates therewith. The driven gear 3212 is meshedly connected with the driving wheel 32112 and can rotate with the driving wheel 32112, thereby realizing transmission.

[0059] In some embodiments, the transmission module 32 further includes a transmission screw 322 , which passes through the driven gear 3212 and is rotationally connected to the vehicle body 50 . The transmission screw 322 is threadedly connected to the lifting module 33 .

[0060] In this embodiment, the driven gear 3212 is sleeved on the periphery of the transmission screw 322 and is fixedly connected to the transmission screw 322. When the driven gear 3212 rotates with the driving gear 3211, the transmission screw 322 also rotates driven by the driven gear 3212. Correspondingly, the lifting module 33 threadedly connected to the transmission screw 322 will also rise on the transmission screw 322 as the transmission screw 322 rotates, thereby driving the lifting plate 20 to rise in the cup holder body 10. When the face gear 312 is disengaged from the driving gear 3211, the lifting module 33 will descend on the transmission screw 322 under the action of its own gravity, and accordingly, the lifting plate 20 will also descend. During the process, the transmission screw 322 will rotate in the opposite direction as the lifting module 33 descends, and then the driven gear 3212 and the driving gear 3211 also rotate in the opposite direction. The driving module 31 and the transmission module 32 are in a non-transmission connection state, and the driving module 31 will not rotate accordingly. This embodiment specifically defines the transmission module 32 and the lifting module 33 to realize the rising and falling of the lifting plate 20, which is convenient for user operation and also allows the user to flexibly adjust the depth of the cup holder for user use.

[0061] Specifically, the lifting module 33 can be a slider, the transmission screw 322 passes through the slider and is threadedly connected to the slider, the slider portion passes through the lifting channel 11 and is connected to the lifting plate 20, and the lifting module 33 can drive the lifting plate 20 to rise or fall to a range related to the position of the lifting channel 11. The highest point to which the lifting plate 20 can rise is the top wall position of the lifting channel 11, and the lowest point to which the lifting plate 20 can fall is the bottom wall position of the lifting channel 11.

[0062] Specifically, the transmission screw 322 is a screw with a large lift angle. When driving the power input member 311, a small torque is input to enable the transmission screw 322 to drive the lifting module 33 to rise to a greater height, making it easier for users to operate.

[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, a mounting groove 40 for mounting the lifting mechanism 30 is provided in the vehicle body 50, a power input end of the power input member 311 is protruded relative to the vehicle body 50, the mounting groove 40 is located at one side of the cup holder body 10, a lifting channel 11 is provided on the side wall of the cup holder body 10, and the lifting module 33 is connected to the lifting plate 20 through the lifting channel 11.

[0064] In this embodiment, the mounting groove 40 is provided in the vehicle body 50 to install the lifting mechanism 30, and the mounting groove 40 is located on one side of the cup holder body 10. A lifting channel 11 is provided on the side wall of the cup holder body 10 near the mounting groove 40, so that the lifting module 33 in the lifting mechanism 30 is connected to the lifting plate 20 located in the cup holder body 10 through the lifting channel 11 to drive the lifting plate 20 to rise or fall. Providing the mounting groove 40 in the vehicle body 50 can not only enable the lifting mechanism 30 to be stored in the vehicle body 50, but also facilitate the installation of the lifting mechanism 30, so that the lifting module 33 is more convenient to connect with the lifting plate 20 located in the cup holder body 10.

[0065] The power input end of the power input member 311 is protruded relative to the vehicle body 50 , so that the user can input power to the power input member 311 through the power input end to control the lifting mechanism 30 , thereby controlling the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 20 in the cup holder body 10 , thereby controlling the depth of the cup holder.

[0066] In some embodiments, the mounting groove 40 includes a first mounting plate 41 connected to the inner wall of the panel of the vehicle body 50, and a second mounting plate 42 parallel to the panel of the vehicle body 50 and connected to the free end of the first mounting plate 41, the power input member 311 is arranged through the panel of the vehicle body 50 and the second mounting plate 42, the driving gear 3211 and the end face gear 312 are located between the panel of the vehicle body 50 and the second mounting plate 42, and the driving gear 3211 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the panel of the vehicle body 50.

[0067] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the mounting groove 40 is defined, and the specific positions of the power input member 311, the end face gear 312 and the driving gear 3211 in the mounting groove 40 are defined. The power input member 311 can move downward on the panel of the vehicle body 50 and the second mounting plate 42 to disengage the end face gear 312 and the driving gear 3211, thereby realizing the switching of the connection working condition of the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32.

[0068] In some embodiments, the driving module 31 further includes an elastic member 313 sleeved on the periphery of the power input member 311 , one end of the elastic member 313 abuts against the top wall of the second mounting plate 42 , and the other end abuts against a side of the end gear 312 away from the driving gear 3211 .

[0069] Specifically, the elastic member 313 is located between the second mounting plate 42 and the end face gear 312. When the end face gear 312 is meshed with the driving gear 3211, the elastic member 313 provides support for the end face gear 312, so that the end face gear 312 can remain meshed with the driving gear 3211 and can also rotate with the power input member 311. When an external force causes the end face gear 312 to be disengaged from the driving gear 3211, the elastic member 313 moves downward with the end face gear 312. When the external force is released, the end face gear 312 re-engages with the driving gear 3211 under the action of the rebound force of the elastic member 313.

[0070] In addition, since the end face gear 312 rotates relative to the elastic member 313 and the elastic member 313 is compressed by the gravity of the end face gear 312, the elastic member 313 will be displaced relative to the end face gear 312 during the rotation of the end face gear 312, thereby causing wear to the end face gear 312. A bearing or a gasket is provided between the elastic member 313 and the end face gear 312 to avoid wear and extend the service life of the end face gear 312, thereby extending the service life of the cup holder.

[0071] In this embodiment, it is limited that the end face gear 312 can move upward in a return manner and re-engage with the driving gear 3211 under the action of the rebound force of the elastic member 313, and the supporting force of the elastic member 313 on the end face gear 312 is limited so that the end face gear 312 and the power input member 311 can rotate relative to the vehicle body 50. The elastic member 313 is an important component of the drive module 31 and the transmission module 32 in a transmission connection condition or a non-transmission connection condition, so that the end face gear 312 remains engaged with the driving gear 3211 in a free state, which is convenient for users to use.

[0072] In some embodiments, Figure 4 As shown, the driving module 31 also includes a ratchet 314 and a ratchet tooth 315 that are meshed together. A ratchet 314 groove is provided on the second mounting plate 42. The ratchet 314 and the ratchet tooth 315 are located in the ratchet 314 groove. The ratchet tooth 315 is connected to the second mounting plate 42. The power input member 311 passes through the ratchet 314 and is engaged with the ratchet 314 so that the power input member 311 can move up and down relative to the ratchet 314 and drive the ratchet 314 to rotate.

[0073] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the ratchet 314 and the ratchet teeth 315 enables the power input member 311 to drive the ratchet 314 to rotate in one direction, that is, in the direction in which the lifting plate 20 rises. When the power input member 311 rotates in the opposite direction, the ratchet teeth 315 restrict the ratchet 314 from rotating. Due to the clamping action between the power input member 311 and the ratchet 314, the power input member 311 also cannot rotate. Therefore, the power input member 311 is limited to rotate only in the direction in which the lifting plate 20 is driven to rise, thereby avoiding user misoperation and facilitating user use.

[0074] In some embodiments, the ratchet 315 is connected to the second mounting plate 42 through a connecting rod 316 and a tension spring 317. The tension spring 317 is sleeved on the periphery of the connecting rod 316. The connecting rod 316 passes through the second mounting plate 42 to the ratchet 314 groove and is connected to the ratchet 315. The tension spring 317 is located on the outside of the second mounting plate 42. The setting of the tension spring 317 can apply a certain buffering force to the ratchet 315 to avoid the ratchet 315 being subjected to the rotational force of the ratchet 314 during the engagement process with the ratchet 314, thereby affecting the service life of the ratchet 315.

[0075] In some embodiments, the power input member 311 is a rotating rod, the outer periphery of the rotating rod is a prismatic structure, the through hole on the ratchet 314 is adapted to the prismatic structure, and the rotating rod and the through hole of the ratchet 314 are snap-connected through the prismatic structure, so that the rotating rod can move up and down relative to the ratchet 314 and can drive the ratchet 314 to rotate accordingly.

[0076] In some embodiments, the power input end of the power input member 311 is provided with a screwing head 318, and the user can use the screwing head 318 to rotate or move downward the power input member 311 to control the rise or fall of the lifting plate 20. The setting of the screwing head 318 facilitates user operation and improves user operation comfort.

[0077] In some specific embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the lifting plate 20 is at the lowest point, and the end face gear 312 is meshed with the driving gear 3211. The user needs to operate the screwing head 318 to make the lifting plate 20 rise to a suitable position so that the user can place a water cup. At this time, the user can turn the screwing head 318 to make the lifting plate 20 rise until the lifting plate 20 rises to a suitable position; when the user needs to place a higher cup, the screwing head 318 needs to be operated to lower the lifting plate 20. At this time, the user can press the screwing head 318 until the lifting plate 20 drops to the lowest point or to a suitable position. The user releases the pressure on the screwing head 318, and the end face gear 312 is meshed with the driving gear 3211 again. The power input member 311 will not rotate in the opposite direction under the action of the ratchet 314 to drive the lifting plate 20 to drop, and the lifting plate 20 remains stable.
