Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automobile storage boxes, in particular to an armrest box for an automobile and the automobile. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of the automobile industry, users have higher and higher requirements for the design of storage space inside the vehicle. In the car, the armrest box, as a part of the storage space, greatly affects the user experience. The existing armrest box is usually set in the middle of the car, between the driver and the co-driver, and is fixedly connected to the floor. The armrest box includes an armrest box body and a storage box. The storage box is fixedly connected to the front of the armrest box body and extends in a first direction toward the central control instrument panel.

[0003] However, this design also has some problems: the distance between the storage box fixed to the main body of the armrest box and the central control instrument panel is too small, which will result in a space partition between the driver and the front passenger, causing inconvenience to users in some scenarios. For example, when parking too close to an obstacle, the driver cannot leave the car from the front door, and needs to climb over the armrest box to leave from the front door. However, the protruding storage box makes it difficult for users to pass through.

[0004] It can be seen that the armrest box provided in the prior art will cause the space between the driver and the co-driver to be separated, which will cause inconvenience in some scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides an armrest box for a car and a car, which solves the problem that the structure of the armrest box provided in the prior art will cause the space between the driver and the co-driver to be partitioned, which will cause inconvenience in certain scenes.

[0006] The utility model provides an armrest box for a car, comprising an armrest box body, a storage box, a transmission mechanism and a limit plate. The armrest box body is surrounded by a receiving space, and the armrest box body is provided with a sliding track extending along a first direction, wherein a part of the sliding track along its extending direction is located inside the armrest box body, and another part is located outside the armrest box body. The storage box can slide relative to the armrest box body in the first direction, so that the storage box can switch between a retracted state and an extended state relative to the armrest box body, and when the storage box slides to a position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body, the storage box can be raised and lowered relative to the armrest box body in the second direction, wherein the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0007] The transmission mechanism includes a front link and a rear link arranged at intervals in a first direction, and an upper slider and a lower slider arranged at intervals in a second direction, both ends of each link of the front link and the rear link are rotatably connected to the upper slider and the lower slider respectively, the upper slider is arranged on the storage box and fixed relative to the storage box, and the lower slider is slidably connected to the sliding track along the first direction, so that the storage box can slide in the first direction relative to the armrest box body and rise and fall in the second direction. The limit plate is spaced apart from the armrest box body in the first direction and extends along the second direction.

[0008] When the storage box is in the retracted state, part or the entire storage box is accommodated in the accommodation space of the armrest box body.

[0009] When the storage box is in an extended state and slides to a position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body, one end of the storage box away from the armrest box body slides along the second direction to be connected to the limit plate, and the lower sliding block is spaced apart from the limit plate in the first direction, so that when the lower sliding block continues to slide along the first direction toward the limit plate, the storage box can be driven by the front connecting rod and the rear connecting rod to rise in the second direction away from the sliding track relative to the armrest box body and the limit plate.

[0010] By setting such a structure, the storage box can be switched between the retracted state and the extended state at will. When retracted, the space inside the car can appear larger and it is convenient for people to pass through. When extended, it is convenient to take and put items. The practicality of the storage space structure inside the car is increased, and a new solution is provided to meet more personalized needs of users.

[0011] At the same time, by providing a transmission mechanism and a limit plate, when the storage box is in the extended state and slides to a position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body, the end of the storage box away from the armrest box body slides along the second direction. The limit plate makes it possible to raise and lower the storage box by rotating the front and rear connecting rods without adding other redundant structures, so that the user can adjust the height of the storage box at will, which is more convenient for the user to use.

[0012] Therefore, the armrest box for a car provided by the utility model can be moved forward and backward and can be raised and lowered at the same time, which improves the comfort of use. By adding a transmission mechanism and a limit plate, the practicality of the storage space structure in the car is increased, and a new solution is provided to meet more personalized needs of users.

[0013] In some embodiments, the sliding track includes a left sliding track and a right sliding track spaced apart in a third direction. The third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction. The upper slider includes a left upper slider and a right upper slider that are relatively arranged in the third direction, and the lower slider includes a left lower slider and a right lower slider that are relatively arranged in the third direction. The front link includes a left front link and a right front link that are relatively arranged in the third direction, and the rear link includes a left rear link and a right rear link that are relatively arranged in the third direction. One end of the left front link is rotatably connected to the front of the left upper slider, and the other end is rotatably connected to the front of the left lower slider. One end of the right front link is rotatably connected to the front of the right upper slider, and the other end is rotatably connected to the front of the right lower slider. One end of the left rear link is rotatably connected to the rear of the left upper slider, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rear of the left lower slider. One end of the right rear link is rotatably connected to the rear of the right upper slider, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rear of the right lower slider. One end of the right rear link is rotatably connected to the rear of the right upper slider, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rear of the right lower slider.

[0014] The symmetrically arranged left and right sliding rails, left and right upper sliders, left and right lower sliders, and left and right front and rear connecting rods make the storage box more stable when moving forward and backward or up and down, further optimizing the user experience.

[0015] In some embodiments, one end of the sliding track located outside the armrest box body is connected to the limit plate. The upper slider is located at the bottom of the storage box, wherein the upper slider and the storage box are an integrated structure, or the upper slider and the storage box are a split structure fixedly connected to each other. Thus, the storage box is more firmly fixed to the upper slider, providing a stable platform when the user takes items in the storage box.

[0016] In some embodiments, the armrest box further includes a water removal device, which is disposed in the storage box. The water removal device includes a multifunctional storage box, which includes a water collecting box and an upper cover. The water collecting box has a storage space inside and an opening in the second direction. The upper cover is disposed on the top of the water collecting box and covers the opening. By providing a multifunctional storage box, the space of the storage box is further divided, and various modules can be matched later to achieve different effects. It can better meet the user's increasingly personalized storage space needs.

[0017] In some embodiments, the multifunctional storage box further includes a storage box and a drainage structure. The storage box is used to place objects to be dewatered and is arranged in the storage space of the water collecting box, and a water collecting space is formed between the storage box and the water collecting box. The storage box has a plurality of through holes so that the water inside the storage box can flow into the water collecting space; the bottom surface of the water collecting box is inclined relative to a plane perpendicular to the second direction, and the bottom surface of the water collecting box gradually tilts downward from its center to the outer edge. Thus, the multifunctional storage box has the function of placing objects to be dewatered (such as umbrellas) and ensuring that the storage box is relatively dry. The inclined bottom surface also further improves the water collection efficiency and effect.

[0018] The drainage structure includes a water guide groove and a drainage pipe; the water guide groove is arranged at the lower edge of the side wall of the multifunctional storage box, and has an opening connected with the water collection space toward the side wall of the multifunctional storage box, so that the water in the water collection space can flow into the water guide groove through the opening of the water guide groove; one end of the drainage pipe is connected to the water guide groove, and the other end is connected to the vehicle body bottom plate, so that the water in the water guide groove can be discharged from the vehicle body bottom plate through the drainage pipe, thereby treating the waste water in the water collection space.

[0019] In some embodiments, the dewatering device also includes a dewatering mechanism, and two side walls of the storage box that are relatively arranged in the first direction are provided with two relative mounting holes, and the axes of the two mounting holes overlap, and the dewatering mechanism is arranged in one of the mounting holes of the two mounting holes. The dewatering mechanism includes a driving component and a mounting component. The driving component is connected with the mounting component to drive the mounting component to rotate. The mounting component is provided with a fixing hole, and the fixing hole is used to clamp one end of the object to be dewatered placed in the storage box, and the other mounting hole in the two mounting holes is used to clamp the other end of the object to be dewatered. Then when placing the object to be dewatered, one end of the object to be dewatered (such as the umbrella handle part of an umbrella) can be placed in the fixing hole of the mounting component, and the driving component is used to drive the mounting component to drive the object to be dewatered to rotate, and it is dehydrated by centrifugal force, so that the object to be dewatered can be dewatered faster. And another mounting hole opposite to the fixing hole is provided on the other side wall of the storage box, so that the other end of the object to be dewatered can be inserted into the mounting hole and clamped. This avoids the situation where the object to be dewatered is subjected to force at one end while the other end is unsupported during rotation, thereby forming a cantilever beam-like structure and being subjected to excessive torque, causing damage to the object to be dewatered.

[0020] In some embodiments, the mounting component is configured as a groove-shaped structure, and the edge of the opening of the groove-shaped structure has a flange structure extending inward. The flange structure is arranged relative to the bottom of the groove-shaped structure; the mounting component is made of rubber. A rubber sleeve is arranged in the other of the two mounting holes, and the other end of the object to be dewatered is clamped by the rubber sleeve. The mounting component is configured as a rubber material, and a rubber sleeve is arranged in the mounting hole, which can increase the compatibility with objects to be dewatered of different sizes and increase the overall practicality of the dewatering device. In addition, the object to be dewatered can be clamped in the mounting component and the mounting hole more firmly.

[0021] In some embodiments, the armrest box also includes a temperature regulating device. The temperature regulating device includes a heat dissipation component, a temperature regulating component and a fan. The temperature regulating component is connected to the heat dissipation component and is used to adjust the temperature of the heat dissipation component. One end of the fan is fixed to the heat dissipation component, and the interior of the fan is connected to the interior of the heat dissipation component. A avoidance hole is opened on the armrest box body, and the other end of the fan passes through the avoidance hole and is fixedly connected to the armrest box body. The interior of the fan is connected to the accommodating space of the armrest box body; wherein, the temperature regulating component can perform heat exchange with the storage box in the armrest box body through the heat dissipation component and the fan.

[0022] By providing a temperature regulating device, firstly, the multifunctional storage box can be used as a refrigerator and a warming box, expanding the function of the armrest box and greatly increasing the practicality of the storage box. Secondly, the temperature regulating device can also be used in conjunction with the aforementioned dehydration mechanism to further dry the object to be dehydrated after drying, maximizing the drying effect of the object to be dehydrated.

[0023] The utility model also provides a car, comprising the armrest box provided by any of the above embodiments, so as to make the storage space in the car more diverse and better meet the personalized needs of users.

[0024] In some embodiments, the car further comprises a central control panel, and the central control panel constitutes a limit plate. Reusing the central control panel as a limit plate is conducive to saving space inside the car. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0055] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clear, the implementation mode of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] It should be noted that, for the convenience of explanation, the length direction of the car is the first direction x, the height direction of the car is the second direction z, and the width direction of the car is the third direction y. In addition, the directions such as up and down, front and back, left and right described in the text are based on the general perspective of the occupants sitting in the cockpit.

[0057] The armrest box provided by the utility model can be applied to automobiles, and the automobiles may include but are not limited to SUVs, sedans, sports cars, etc. The specific structure and function of the armrest box will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0058] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the armrest box of an embodiment of the utility model.

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, the armrest box 1 includes an armrest box body 11. The armrest box body 11 is surrounded by a receiving space 112, and the armrest box body 11 is provided with a sliding track 12 extending along a first direction x, wherein a portion of the sliding track 12 along its extending direction is located inside the armrest box body 11, and another portion is located outside the armrest box body 11, or it can be understood that the receiving space 112 only accommodates a portion of the sliding track 12, and another portion of the sliding track 12 is located outside the receiving space 112.

[0060] It should be noted that the specific shape of the armrest box body 11 is not limited. Figure 1 As shown, in one example, the armrest box body 11 is a hollow rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the inner space of the rectangular parallelepiped structure is the aforementioned accommodation space 112. The rectangular parallelepiped structure is disposed along a first direction x toward one side of the front of the vehicle (corresponding to Figure 1 There is an opening (on the left side in the figure), through which the sliding track 12 passes.

[0061] The armrest box 1 also includes a storage box 2, which can move relative to the armrest box body 11 in a first direction x, so that the storage box 2 can switch between a retracted state and an extended state relative to the armrest box body 11, and when the storage box 2 slides to a position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body 11, the storage box 2 can be raised and lowered relative to the armrest box body 11 in a second direction z. The second direction z is perpendicular to the first direction x.

[0062] To better illustrate the movement path of the storage box 2, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 3 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the storage box in the retracted state according to the embodiment of the utility model; Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the storage box in the extended state according to the embodiment of the utility model.

[0063] like Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, combined with Figure 1 It is understood that the armrest box 1 also includes a transmission mechanism 4. The transmission mechanism 4 includes a front connecting rod 43 and a rear connecting rod 44 arranged at intervals in the first direction x, and an upper slider 41 and a lower slider 42 arranged in the second direction z. The two ends of each of the front connecting rod 43 and the rear connecting rod 44 are rotatably connected to the upper slider 41 and the lower slider 42 respectively. The upper slider 41 is arranged on the storage box 2 and is fixed relative to the storage box 2. The lower slider 42 is slidably connected to the sliding track 12 along the first direction x, so that the storage box 2 can slide in the first direction x relative to the armrest box body 11, and rise and fall in the second direction z. It can be understood here that the transmission mechanism 4 includes two front and rear connecting rods and two upper and lower sliders. The storage box 2 is arranged on the upper slider 41 and is fixed relative to the upper slider 41. The lower slider 42 can slide on the sliding track 12 and drive the front and rear connecting rods to slide.

[0064] However, only the transmission mechanism 4 is not enough to enable the storage box 2 in the armrest box to achieve the lifting function, so the armrest box is also provided with a limit plate 5. The limit plate 5 is spaced apart from the armrest box body 11 in the first direction x and extends along the second direction z.

[0065] like Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, combined with Figure 1 It is understood that when the storage box 2 is in the aforementioned contracted state, part or all of the storage box 2 is accommodated in the accommodation space 112 of the armrest box body 11. When the storage box 2 is in the aforementioned extended state and slides to a position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body 11, the end of the storage box 2 away from the armrest box body 11 is movably connected to the limit plate 5 along the second direction z. The lower slider 42 is spaced apart from the limit plate 5 in the first direction x, so that when the lower slider 42 continues to slide in the direction of the limit plate 5 along the first direction x, the storage box 2 can be driven to rise in the second direction z away from the sliding track 12 relative to the armrest box body 11 and the limit plate 5 through the front connecting rod 43 and the rear connecting rod 44.

[0066] Here, it can be understood that the aforementioned storage box 2 has two states: retracted and extended. In the retracted state, the storage box 2 is partially or completely located inside the armrest box body 11. When switched to the extended state, the storage box 2 slides outward until it slides to a position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body 11, and the storage box 2 is slidably connected with the limit plate 5 in the second direction z. At this time, the lower slider 42 continues to move forward, pushing the front connecting rod 43 and the rear connecting rod 44 to rotate, thereby raising the storage box 2 and completing the height adjustment of the storage box 2.

[0067] By setting such a structure, the storage box 2 can be switched between the retracted state and the extended state at will. When retracted, the space inside the vehicle can appear larger and it is convenient for people to pass through. When extended, it is convenient to take and put items. The practicality of the storage space structure inside the vehicle is increased, and a new solution is provided to meet more personalized needs of users.

[0068] At the same time, by further providing the transmission mechanism 4 and the limit plate 5, when the storage box 2 is in the extended state and slides to the position where it is fully extended from the armrest box body 11, the end of the storage box 2 away from the armrest box body 11 slides in the second direction z along the limit plate 5. The limit plate 5 makes it possible to realize the lifting and lowering of the storage box 2 by rotating the front and rear connecting rods without adding other redundant structures, so that the user can adjust the height of the storage box 2 at will, which is more convenient for the user to use and optimizes the user's riding experience.

[0069] Therefore, the storage box 2 for a car provided by the utility model can be moved forward and backward and can also be raised and lowered by adding a transmission mechanism 4 and a limit plate 5, thereby improving the comfort of use. This increases the practicality of the storage space structure in the car and provides a new solution to meet more personalized needs of users.

[0070] The above is an introduction to the structure of the utility model to realize the basic functions. The following will describe the detailed structure and function of each component in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. First, the transmission mechanism for realizing the movement of the storage box 2 is described.

[0071] See also Figure 4a-4b , Figure 4a This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the transmission structure when the storage box in the armrest box of the embodiment of the utility model is in a retracted state; Figure 4b It is a structural schematic diagram of the transmission structure when the storage box in the armrest box of the embodiment of the utility model is in an extended state.

[0072] like Figure 4a-4b As shown, combined with Figure 1-Figure 3 It is understood that, in one embodiment, the aforementioned sliding track 12 includes a left sliding track 121 and a right sliding track 122 spaced apart in the third direction y. The upper slider 41 includes an upper left slider 411 and an upper right slider 412 disposed opposite to each other in the third direction y, and the lower slider 42 includes a lower left slider 421 and a lower right slider 422 disposed opposite to each other in the third direction y. At this time, the lower left slider 421 is slidably connected to the left sliding track 121. The lower right slider 422 is slidably connected to the right sliding track 122.

[0073] The front link 43 includes a left front link 431 and a right front link 432 which are relatively arranged in the third direction y, and the rear link 44 includes a left rear link 441 and a right rear link 442 which are relatively arranged in the third direction y; one end of the left front link 431 is rotatably connected to the front part of the upper left slider 411, and the other end is rotatably connected to the front part of the lower left slider 421; one end of the right front link 432 is rotatably connected to the front part of the upper right slider 412, and the other end is rotatably connected to the front part of the lower right slider 422; one end of the left rear link 441 is rotatably connected to the rear part of the upper left slider 411, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rear part of the lower left slider 421; one end of the right rear link 442 is rotatably connected to the rear part of the upper right slider 412, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rear part of the lower right slider 422.

[0074] Here, it can be understood that: the upper left slider 411, the upper right slider 412 and the storage box 2 relative to each other form the top surface of the quadrangular prism; the left front connecting rod 431, the right front connecting rod 432, the left rear connecting rod 441 and the right rear connecting rod 442 relatively arranged in the middle part form the four edges of the quadrangular prism; the lower left slider 421 and the lower right slider 422 relatively arranged on the bottom surface form the bottom surface of the quadrangular prism. As a result, the aforementioned transmission mechanism is set as a quadrangular prism structure, which can slide forward and backward on the sliding track 12. Such a structure makes the storage box 2 more stable when moving forward and backward or up and down. It further optimizes the user experience.

[0075] The above is a further description of the transmission mechanism. It should be noted that the specific structure of the aforementioned limit plate is also not limited.

[0076] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the limit plate 5 can be a central control instrument panel of the car. Reusing the central control instrument panel of the car as the limit plate 5 avoids setting up a separate structure as the limit plate, which is conducive to saving space inside the car.

[0077] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the positional relationship between the limiting plate and other components is also not limited.

[0078] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, one end of the sliding track 12 located outside the armrest box body 11 is connected to the limiting plate 5 .

[0079] It should be noted that the connection method between the limit plate and the sliding track is also not limited.

[0080] In one embodiment, the limit plate and the sliding track are an integrated structure, so that the limit plate and the sliding track are closely combined and the guiding effect is better.

[0081] In another alternative embodiment, the limiting plate and the sliding track may also be split structures fixedly connected to each other, which is not limited in the present application.

[0082] The above is a description of the implementation methods that can be realized by the limit plate. The specific structure and function of the storage box will be described in detail below.

[0083] See also Figure 5a-Figure 5b , Figure 5a This is a schematic diagram of the cooperation between the transmission mechanism and the storage box in the armrest box of the embodiment of the utility model; Figure 5b It is a schematic diagram of the coordination between the storage box and the upper slide block in the armrest box according to an embodiment of the utility model.

[0084] like Figure 5a-Figure 5b As shown, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 4a It is understood that the storage box 2 is fixedly connected to the aforementioned upper sliders 41 (specifically, the left upper slider 411 and the right upper slider 412 ), and the upper sliders 41 are located at the bottom of the storage box 2 .

[0085] It should be noted that there is no limitation on the matching mode between the storage box and the upper sliding block.

[0086] like Figure 5b As shown, in one embodiment, the upper slider 41 and the storage box 2 are an integrally formed one-piece structure, which is conducive to providing a more stable platform for users to take and place items in the storage box.

[0087] In another alternative embodiment, the upper slider and the storage box may also be a split structure that is fixedly connected to each other. Such a structure is conducive to later replacement and reduces maintenance costs.

[0088] Furthermore, the structure of the storage box is not limited. For example, partitions and modules with different functions may be further provided in the storage box.

[0089] See also Figure 6a-Figure 6b , Figure 6a This is a schematic diagram of the coordination of the storage box, the drainage structure, the water removal mechanism and the water collection box in the armrest box of the embodiment of the utility model; Figure 6b It is a schematic diagram of the cooperation between the storage box and the water removal mechanism in the armrest box of the embodiment of the utility model.

[0090] like Figure 6a-Figure 6b As shown, combined with Figure 5a-Figure 5bIt is understood that, in one embodiment, the armrest box 1 further includes a water removal device 3. The water removal device 3 is arranged in the storage box 2, and includes a multifunctional storage box 31. The multifunctional storage box 31 includes a water collecting box 311 and an upper cover 312. The water collecting box 311 has a storage space 313 inside, and has an opening in the second direction z. The upper cover 312 is arranged on the top of the water collecting box 311 and covers the aforementioned opening. It may be understood here that the water collecting box 311 and the upper cover 312 constitute a complete box body that can be opened from the opening, and the interior of the box body is hollow and can be used to store items.

[0091] It should be noted that the specific structure of the upper cover 312 is not limited.

[0092] In one embodiment, the upper cover 312 can be configured as a double-door structure, including a rotating shaft disposed on the upper edges of both sides of the water collection box and two side covers connected thereto. When opening, the two side covers rotate around the rotating shaft until they are fully opened, and the covers fit on both sides of the water collection box.

[0093] In another alternative embodiment, the upper cover may also be configured as a drawer door structure, which is not limited in the present application.

[0094] By further dividing the space of the storage box, various modules can be matched to achieve different effects, which can better meet the increasingly personalized storage space needs of users.

[0095] For example, Figure 6a-Figure 6b As shown, the multifunctional storage box 31 may also include a storage box 32. The storage box 32 is used to place objects to be dewatered and is arranged in the storage space 313 of the water collecting box 311. A water collecting space 314 is formed between the storage box 32 and the water collecting box 311. The storage box 32 is provided with a plurality of through holes 321 so that the water inside the storage box 32 can flow into the water collecting space 314. The bottom surface of the water collecting box 311 is inclined relative to a plane perpendicular to the second direction z, and the bottom surface of the water collecting box 311 gradually tilts downward from its center to the outer edge. It may be understood here that: another storage box 32 is arranged inside the water collecting box 311, and a water collecting space 314 is formed between the storage box 32 and the water collecting box 311. A through hole 321 is provided on the storage box 32 so that water can flow out to the water collecting space 314. Thus, the multifunctional storage box 31 can also be used to place wet objects to be dewatered (e.g., umbrellas), and the storage box 32 can be kept dry when the objects to be dewatered are placed. The water collection box 311 is tilted so that the wastewater in the water collection space 314 can be gathered at a low point due to gravity, which is convenient for subsequent treatment.

[0096] For example, further, Figure 6aAs shown, in one embodiment, the multifunctional storage box 31 may also be provided with a drainage structure 33 to process wastewater. The drainage structure 33 includes a water guide groove 331 and a drain pipe 332. The water guide groove 331 is arranged at the lower edge of the side wall of the multifunctional storage box 31, and has an opening connected to the water collection space 314 toward the side wall of the multifunctional storage box 31, so that the water in the water collection space 314 can flow into the water guide groove 331 through the opening of the water guide groove 331; one end of the drain pipe 332 is connected to the water guide groove 331, and the other end (not shown in the figure) is connected to the bottom plate of the vehicle body, so that the water in the water guide groove 331 can be discharged from the bottom plate of the vehicle body through the drain pipe 332. The wastewater in the water collection space 314 is processed, eliminating the manual operation of the user, and enhancing the practicality and ease of use of the structure.

[0097] The above structure realizes the preliminary storage of the objects to be dewatered and ensures that the automatically dripping waste water can be collected when the objects to be dewatered are stored without the need for manual processing by the user. The function of the multifunctional storage box can be further expanded. The following will introduce possible expansion plans and their specific structures by example.

[0098] See also Figure 7a-Figure 7b , Figure 7a This is a structural schematic diagram of a water removal mechanism in an armrest box according to an embodiment of the utility model; Figure 7b It is a schematic diagram of the explosion structure of the water removal mechanism in the armrest box of the embodiment of the utility model.

[0099] Furthermore, Figure 7a-Figure 7b As shown, combined with Figure 6a-Figure 6b It is understood that the water removal device 3 can also include a water removal mechanism 34. At this time, two opposite mounting holes 322 are provided on the two side walls of the storage box 32 that are relatively arranged in the first direction x, and the axes of the two mounting holes 322 coincide. The water removal mechanism 34 is arranged in one of the two mounting holes 322. The water removal mechanism 34 includes a driving component 341 and a mounting component 342. The driving component 341 is connected to the mounting component 342 and can drive the mounting component 342 to rotate. The mounting component 342 is provided with a fixing hole 3421, and the fixing hole 3421 is used to clamp one end of the component to be dewatered placed in the storage box 32, and the other mounting hole 322 in the aforementioned mounting hole 322 is used to clamp the other end of the component to be dewatered.

[0100] Here, it may be understood that: the side wall of the storage box 32 is provided with two opposite mounting holes 322, and a dewatering mechanism 34 is provided in one mounting hole 322. When in use, one end of the part to be dewatered (for example, the handle of an umbrella) is clamped in the fixing hole 3421 of the mounting part 342, and the other end (for example, the umbrella cover and the rib part of the umbrella) is clamped in another mounting hole 322 of the aforementioned mounting hole 322. The driving part 341 drives the mounting part 342 to rotate, thereby driving the part to be dewatered to rotate, using centrifugal force to achieve dehumidification, and discharge through the aforementioned drainage structure 33. By providing another mounting hole 322 at the rear of the storage box 32 where the axis of the mounting part 342 coincides, the other end of the object to be dewatered can be inserted into the mounting hole 322 and fixed. This avoids the object to be dewatered from being unsupported at the rear due to the force on the head when rotating, thereby forming a cantilever beam structure, which is subjected to excessive torque and causes damage to the object to be dewatered.

[0101] It should be noted that the specific structure of the driving component 341 is not limited.

[0102] In one embodiment, the driving component 341 can be a small motor, which has a simple structure and is easy to use and replace.

[0103] In another alternative embodiment, the driving component 341 may also be a manually driven rotating wheel structure, which is not limited in the present application.

[0104] The above is a description of the structure related to the water removal mechanism. However, this structure still has the problem of insufficient versatility, and can only be adapted to objects to be dewatered of one size, and the use scenario is relatively narrow.

[0105] So Figure 6a-Figure 7b As shown, in one embodiment, the mounting component 342 is configured as a groove structure, and the edge of the opening of the groove structure has a flange structure 3422 extending inward. The flange structure 3422 is arranged relative to the bottom of the groove structure. And the material of the mounting component 342 is rubber. A rubber sleeve 3221 is provided in the other mounting hole 322 of the two mounting holes 322, and the other end of the object to be dewatered is clamped by the rubber sleeve 3221. The mounting component 342 is configured as a rubber structure, which can increase the compatibility with objects to be dewatered of different sizes and increase the practicality of the dewatering device as a whole. And the object to be dewatered can be fixed more firmly.

[0106] The above is a detailed description of the water removal device. In order to expand the functions of the armrest box and meet the personalized needs of users, a temperature adjustment device can also be added to the armrest box. The structure and function of the temperature adjustment device will be described below.

[0107] See also Figure 8 , Figure 8It is a schematic structural diagram of the temperature regulating device in the armrest box of an embodiment of the utility model.

[0108] like Figure 8 As shown, combined with Figure 1 It is understood that, in one embodiment, the armrest box 1 also includes a temperature regulating device 6. The temperature regulating device 6 includes a heat dissipation component 62, a temperature regulating component 61 and a fan 63. The temperature regulating component 61 is connected to the heat dissipation component 62, and is used to adjust the temperature of the heat dissipation component 62. One end of the fan 63 is fixed to the heat dissipation component 62, and the interior of the fan 63 is connected to the interior of the heat dissipation component 62. A avoidance hole 111 is opened on the armrest box body 11, and the other end of the fan 63 passes through the avoidance hole 111 and is fixedly connected to the armrest box body 11. The interior of the fan 63 is connected to the accommodating space 112 of the armrest box body 11; wherein, the temperature regulating component 61 can perform heat exchange with the storage box 2 in the armrest box body 11 through the heat dissipation component 62 and the fan 63.

[0109] It is understood by those skilled in the art that the specific structure of the temperature regulating component described herein is not limited. In one embodiment, the temperature regulating component 61 may be a Peltier chip. Semiconductor temperature regulating components such as Peltier chips are not only simple in structure and occupy less space, but also can provide a temperature range from -10 degrees to 50 degrees, with a larger temperature control range. The functionality of the storage box 2 is further expanded, so that it can be used as a refrigerator or a warm box, which greatly increases the practicality of the storage box 2.

[0110] In another alternative embodiment, a temperature control component such as a compressor may also be used to adjust the temperature, which is not limited in the present application.

[0111] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that there is no limitation on the connection method between the temperature regulating device and other components in the vehicle.

[0112] For example, Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the temperature regulating device 6 is further provided with a plug connector 64. One end of the plug connector 64 is connected to the heat dissipation component 62, and the other end (not shown) is connected to the in-vehicle circuit, so as to supply energy to the temperature regulating device 6.

[0113] In other alternative embodiments, other methods may be used to power the temperature adjustment device, such as providing a battery, etc. This application does not limit this.

[0114] The temperature adjustment device 6 can also be used in conjunction with the aforementioned dehumidification mechanism 34. For example, the object to be dehydrated can be first dried by the dehumidification mechanism 34 and then dried by the temperature adjustment device 6 to achieve the best dehumidification effect and optimize the user experience.

[0115] The utility model also proposes a car, which includes the armrest box 1 mentioned above, so that the storage space in the car can be more diverse and can better meet the personalized needs of users.

[0116] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to certain preferred embodiments of the present invention, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the above contents are further detailed descriptions of the present invention in combination with specific embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. Those skilled in the art may make various changes in form and details, including making several simple deductions or substitutions, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
