[0034] This specification may use the phrases "in one embodiment", "in another embodiment", "in yet another embodiment" or "in other embodiments", all of which may refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to the present invention.

[0035] The first embodiment of the present invention provides a cup holder structure, which is arranged on a secondary dashboard of a vehicle, and whose size can be adjusted to accommodate cups of different sizes, such as Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, it includes a main body 1, the shape of which is determined based on the location of the auxiliary instrument panel, and at least one recess 2 is provided on the main body 1, the recess 2 is used to accommodate cups of different sizes, and the depth of the recess 2 can be determined according to the height of most cups. The recess 2 has a bottom 1a.

[0036] In order to adapt to the shape of the cup, the cross section of the recess 2 is preferably circular, so that the recess 2 has a circular bottom 1a. Of course, the cross section of the recess 2 can also adopt other centrally symmetrical shapes, such as square, etc., which is not limited here.

[0037] Further, in this embodiment, a plurality of recesses 2 may be provided on the main body 1 to facilitate placement of a plurality of cups, and the plurality of recesses 2 may be interconnected to improve space utilization. For example, in this embodiment, two interconnected recesses 2 are provided on the main body 1 to accommodate two cups at the same time.

[0038] Furthermore, a plurality of slide grooves 3 are provided at the bottom 1a of the recess 2. The slide grooves 3 penetrate the bottom 1a and extend radially from the edge of the bottom 1a toward the center of the bottom 1a, that is, the slide grooves 3 are radially provided based on the center of the bottom 1a.

[0039] Preferably, since the plurality of chutes 3 are radially arranged based on the center of the bottom 1a, the plurality of chutes 3 are arranged at equal angles to each other. In this embodiment, five chutes 3 are arranged on the bottom 1a, and the five chutes 3 are radially arranged and the angle between adjacent chutes 3 is 72°.

[0040] Furthermore, a rotating shaft 4 is arranged on the outer side of the bottom 1a, and a gear 5 is arranged on the rotating shaft 4. The gear 5 is movably connected with a plurality of clamping assemblies. The clamping assemblies are arranged corresponding to the slide slots 3 and can pass through the slide slots 3, so as to clamp the cups accommodated in the recessed portion 2. Here, the driver and the passenger can adjust the position of the clamping assembly by rotating the gear 5, so as to facilitate clamping and fixing cups of different sizes.

[0041] Furthermore, the gear 5 is provided with an arc groove 51 corresponding to the clamping assembly, wherein the arc groove 51 is provided along the radial direction of the gear 5, and its shape matches the moving direction of the clamping assembly, and its number corresponds to the number of the clamping assemblies. Thus, through the rotation of the gear 5, one end of the clamping assembly is driven to move in the arc groove 51, and the other end thereof passes through the slide groove 3 and moves in the slide groove 3, so as to achieve the clamping effect on cups of different sizes placed in the recess 2.

[0042] Further, the clamping assembly includes a main body 11, where the main body 11 is, for example, a sheet-shaped or rod-shaped structure, and a first pin portion 12 is provided at one end of the main body 11, and the first pin portion 12 can be accommodated and moved in the arc groove 51, that is, when the gear 5 rotates, the first pin portion 12 moves in the arc groove 51; a second pin portion 13 is provided at the other end of the main body 11, and the second pin portion 13 can be accommodated and moved in the slide groove 3, and the second pin portion 13 and the first pin portion 12 are arranged in different directions toward the main body 11, for example, the first pin portion 12 is arranged in a direction away from the main body 11, and the second pin portion 13 is arranged in a direction facing the main body 11.

[0043] Here, the first pin portion 12 and the second pin portion 13 may preferably be cylindrical structures so as to facilitate movement in the corresponding arc groove 51 and the sliding groove 3 .

[0044] Furthermore, a clamping portion 14 is provided on the second pin portion 13 , and the clamping portion 14 is used to clamp the cup placed in the recess 2 , and may be a plate-like structure, and may preferably have a certain curvature so as to fit with the outer surface of the cup.

[0045] In this way, as the first pin portion 12 moves, the second pin portion 13 is driven to move in the slide groove 3, thereby driving the clamping portion 14 to move toward or away from the center direction of the bottom 1a, so that the clamping position can be adjusted according to the sizes of different cups, thereby facilitating the fixing of cups of different sizes.

[0046] Furthermore, for example, when the cross-section of the recess 2 is circular, a groove 7 is provided on the inner wall of the recess 2, and the shape of the groove 7 matches the shape of the clamping portion 14. The groove 7 can serve as a reserved position for the clamping portion 14, and the clamping portion 14 can be accommodated in the groove 7 when it is located at an initial position or moved to a position farthest from the center of the bottom 1a. In this way, the clamping portion 14 is fitted with the inner wall of the recess 2, so that the inner wall surface of the recess 2 is smoother.

[0047] Furthermore, in order to enable the clamping assembly to stably move on the bottom 1a of the main body 1 and prevent the clamping assembly from falling during movement, a track 6 is provided on the outer side of the bottom 1a along the direction of the slide slot 3, and the main body 11 can be embedded in the track 6 to ensure that the first pin portion 12 stably moves in the arc groove 51 and the second pin portion 13 stably moves in the slide slot 3. Preferably, the length of the track 6 can be less than the length of the main body 11 in the clamping assembly, so that the installation of the clamping assembly is more convenient.

[0048] When the cup holder structure in the above embodiment is used, in the initial state, the clamping portion 14 of the clamping assembly is moved into the groove 7 on the inner wall of the recess 2, so that a cup of the largest size can be accommodated. By rotating the gear 5, the clamping portion 14 of each clamping assembly is moved toward the center of the bottom 1a, so that a cup of a smaller size can be clamped and fixed.

[0049] Specifically, when the gear 5 is operated to rotate, the gear 5 rotates around the rotating shaft 4 on the bottom 1a, for example, counterclockwise, and the first pin portion 12 moves in the arc groove and drives the body 11 to move in the track 6, and then the second pin portion 13 moves in the slide groove 3 and drives the clamping portion 14 to move toward the center direction of the bottom 1a. When the clamping portion 14 touches the outer wall of the cup, the gear 5 is operated to stop rotating, so that the multiple clamping portions 14 clamp and fix the cups of different sizes in the recess 2 from multiple directions to prevent the cups from shaking during driving.

[0050] A second embodiment of the utility model provides a vehicle, comprising a sub-instrument panel, on which the cup holder structure described in any one of the above technical solutions is arranged.

[0051] In the embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of slide grooves are arranged at the bottom of the recessed portion of the main body, a rotating shaft is arranged at the outer side of the bottom, and a gear is arranged on the rotating shaft, which is movably connected with a plurality of clamping assemblies through the gears. The clamping assemblies pass through the corresponding slide grooves to clamp the cups, so that cups of different sizes can be accommodated and fixed, thereby preventing the cups from getting stuck when being taken or shaking when the vehicle is driving.
