The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, but in addition to these detailed descriptions, the present invention may also have other implementations.

[0038] Embodiment 1

[0039] The first embodiment of the utility model provides a central console to solve the problem that when a vehicle driver interconnects a mobile terminal with a vehicle-side interface during driving, the vehicle owner needs to lower his head and manually operate the data cable to align it with the charging port of the mobile terminal, which causes safety risks during driving.

[0040] The technical solution provided by the first embodiment of the present utility model is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, a center console 10 is provided, and a magnetic suction interface 20 is provided on the center console 10, and the magnetic suction interface 20 includes:

[0041] Housing 21;

[0042] A vehicle-end interface 22, which is located on the end surface of the housing 21;

[0043] The magnetic portion 23 is located on the end surface of the housing 21 and is distributed around the vehicle-end interface 22 .

[0044] Among them, for the specific structure of the magnetic suction interface 20, the shell 21 is the external structure of the magnetic suction interface 20, which is used to protect the internal components and provide installation and fixation. The vehicle-end interface 22 is located on the end face of the shell 21, and is used to transmit power or data to the mobile terminal connected thereto through a wiring harness. The magnetic part 23 is located around the vehicle-end interface 22. The magnetic part 23 contains magnetic material and is used to adsorb and fix the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal can be connected to the magnetic connector. The magnetic part 23 is connected to the magnetic connector through magnetic force, so that the mobile terminal is connected to the magnetic suction interface 20.

[0045] As an example of the magnetic interface 20, Figure 3 As shown, the magnetic interface 20 includes a housing 21 , a vehicle-end interface 22 and a magnetic portion 23 .

[0046] Furthermore, as an implementation mode, the material of the magnetic part 23 is aluminum alloy and neodymium magnet.

[0047] Among them, aluminum alloy and neodymium magnet materials are both high-strength and durable, and can withstand certain external impacts and pressures, ensuring the stability and long-term reliability of the magnetic interface 20. Aluminum alloy is a lightweight material with a low density, which can reduce weight. Neodymium magnets are one of the most widely used permanent magnetic materials in commercial applications. They have high magnetic properties and can provide strong adsorption and a stable magnetic field, ensuring a firm connection between the magnetic interface 20 and the mobile terminal.

[0048] Furthermore, as a connection method between the magnetic interface 20 and the center console 10 , the magnetic interface 20 is fixed on the center console 10 .

[0049] When the magnetic interface 20 is fixed on the center console 10, it is usually more stable and not easy to move or shake, thus providing a more reliable connection, and the user can easily find the vehicle terminal interface 22, and the operation is more convenient and quick. In addition, the fixed magnetic interface 20 can be better integrated with the vehicle interior, making the overall appearance more beautiful.

[0050] The technical effect of the technical solution provided in the first embodiment is that: the utility model sets a magnetic suction interface on the center console. When the user interconnects the mobile terminal with the vehicle-mounted end, the mobile terminal can be quickly and safely connected to the vehicle-mounted end without manually plugging and unplugging the data cable, providing a more convenient connection method, especially the mobile terminal is automatically adsorbed when approaching the vehicle-mounted end interface, and the user does not need to laboriously find or align the vehicle-mounted end interface, saving the time of plugging and unplugging the data cable, improving the connection efficiency, and at the same time improving driving safety.

[0051] Embodiment 2

[0052] A second embodiment of the present invention provides a center console, which provides another connection method between the magnetic suction interface and the center console.

[0053] The technical solution provided in the second embodiment of the present invention is based on the technical solution provided in the first embodiment, and the magnetic interface 20 is movably connected to the central console 10. As an example, Figure 4 As shown, the magnetic interface 20 is movably connected to the center console 10 via a connecting line 31. The connecting line 31 connected to the center console 10 is made of a flexible braided material, which can support the magnetic interface 20 to swing slightly up, down, left, and right. When the magnetic connector of the mobile terminal approaches the magnetic interface 20, the magnetic interface 20 quickly and accurately docks with the magnetic connector by moving slightly.

[0054] The technical effect of this implementation is that the magnetic interface can be movably connected to the center console through a connecting line, and the position can be slightly adjusted according to the position of the mobile terminal, which is convenient for users to connect the mobile terminal and provides users with greater flexibility and convenience.

[0055] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown, a winding member 40 is provided in the center console 10 , and the connecting line 31 is telescopically arranged in the winding member 40 .

[0056] The winding member 40 includes an outer shell 41 and a rotating wheel 42. An output port is provided at one end of the outer shell 41. The rotating wheel 42 is elastically rotatably connected to the inner side of the outer shell 41. The connecting wire 31 is wound around the rotating wheel 42 and can be extended from the output port. When the connecting wire 31 is used, when the pulling force applied to the connecting wire 31 is greater than the elastic force of the rotating wheel 42, the connecting wire 31 can be wound out to a longer length. When the pulling force applied to the connecting wire 31 is less than the elastic force of the rotating wheel 42, the connecting wire 31 is wound back onto the rotating wheel 42 under the action of the elastic restoring force.

[0057] As an example, when the mobile terminal is close to the magnetic interface 20, the magnetic force between the magnetic connector of the mobile terminal and the magnetic interface 20 is greater than the elastic force of the rotating wheel 42, and the connecting line 31 will extend out and connect with the mobile terminal. When the magnetic interface 20 is connected to the magnetic connector of the mobile terminal, the elastic force of the rotating wheel 42 will pull the mobile terminal toward the center console until the magnetic interface 20 returns to its original state.

[0058] The technical effect of the technical solution provided in the second embodiment is: by setting a winding member and winding the connecting wire around the rotating wheel of the winding member, automatic extension and retraction of the connecting wire is achieved according to the relationship between the elastic force and the pulling force of the rotating wheel. This design can effectively provide convenience when connecting to the mobile terminal, and automatically restore to its original state after the connection is completed, thereby improving the user experience and operating convenience.

[0059] Embodiment 3

[0060] A third embodiment of the present invention provides a center console, which facilitates users to connect to a mobile terminal by arranging a magnetic interface at a suitable position on the center console.

[0061] The technical solution provided in the third embodiment of the present utility model is based on the technical solutions provided in the first and second embodiments, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the magnetic interface 20 is located in an inner groove 30 at the bottom of the center console 10 .

[0062] As an implementation manner, the magnetic interface 20 is fixed in an inner groove 30 at the bottom of the center console 10 .

[0063] The magnetic interface 20 is embedded in the inner groove 30, which can be better hidden inside the vehicle, making the overall appearance more beautiful and neat. In addition, the magnetic interface 20 fixed in the inner groove 30 can provide a more secure fixation, reduce the shaking and swaying of the mobile terminal connected thereto during driving, and maintain the stability of the mobile terminal.

[0064] like Figure 7 As shown, as another embodiment, the magnetic interface 20 is movably connected to the center console 10 in the inner groove 30 via a connecting line 31 .

[0065] Among them, the connecting line 31 connected to the center console 10 is made of flexible woven material, which can support the magnetic interface 20 to swing slightly up, down, left and right, and can be retracted, that is, through the wiring harness connection, the magnetic interface 20 can be flexibly moved and adjusted when needed.

[0066] The technical effect of the technical solution provided in the third embodiment is that by placing the magnetic interface in the inner groove at the bottom of the center console, the mobile terminal can be effectively prevented from accidentally moving or shaking during driving, providing a more stable and safe connection environment. The magnetic interface located in the inner groove at the bottom can be better hidden inside the vehicle, keeping the interior space clean and beautiful, and improving the overall design and visual effect of the interior. When the user needs to connect the mobile terminal, he can directly align the mobile terminal with the inner groove at the bottom of the center console. The magnetic adsorption effect of the magnetic interface can quickly and accurately fix the mobile terminal in place, simplifying the connection operation process and improving the convenience of use.

[0067] Embodiment 4

[0068] A fourth embodiment of the present utility model provides a vehicle interior, which enables a user to conveniently connect to a mobile terminal through the cooperation of a center console and an armrest box.

[0069] The fourth embodiment of the utility model provides a vehicle interior, such as Figure 8 As shown, it includes the center console 10 and the center control armrest 50 provided in embodiments one to three. The lower end of the center console 10 is connected to the center control armrest 50 , and the magnetic suction interface 20 is located above the center control armrest 50 .

[0070] Among them, the center console 10 is usually located at the front of the vehicle and is used to accommodate various control buttons, display screens and magnetic suction interfaces, while the center control armrest 50 is connected to the center console 10 and is located below the center console 10. The upper surface of the center control armrest 50 can be used to place a mobile terminal 60. When the mobile terminal 60 is connected to the magnetic suction interface 20, it is located on the upper surface of the center control armrest 50.

[0071] As an example, Figures 9 to 11 As shown, when the user connects the mobile terminal 60, the user places the mobile terminal 60 on the central control armrest 50 and directly pushes the mobile terminal 60 into the inner groove 30 of the central console 10 to connect the mobile terminal 60 to the magnetic interface 20 in the central console 10.

[0072] Furthermore, as an embodiment, a groove is provided on the upper surface of the central control armrest 50, and the magnetic suction interface 20 is located in the groove.

[0073] Among them, a groove is provided on the surface of the central control armrest 50, and the magnetic interface 20 is correspondingly placed in the groove. The groove can be used to place the mobile terminal 60 so that the mobile terminal 60 can be quickly aligned and connected with the magnetic interface 20. By setting the groove on the central control armrest 50 and setting the magnetic interface 20 in the groove, the user can place the mobile terminal 60 in the groove without manually aligning it with the vehicle-end interface, thereby achieving a fast and convenient connection experience. The presence of the groove makes the mobile terminal 60 more stable when interconnected with the vehicle-end interface, avoiding the problem of unstable connection due to movement or bumps, and ensuring the stability and safety of the connection process.

[0074] The technical effect of the fourth embodiment of the present invention is that by setting the central control armrest in coordination with the center console, the user only needs to simply place the mobile terminal on the central control armrest and then push it into the inner groove of the center console to easily connect the mobile terminal to the magnetic interface, eliminating tedious alignment operations and improving the convenience and efficiency of the connection.
