[0032] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.

[0033] Please also read Figures 1 to 4 The central control panel charging pad structure, the auxiliary instrument panel wireless charging assembly and the vehicle provided by the embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below.

[0034] See also Figure 1 An embodiment of the utility model provides a central control panel charging pad structure 1, comprising: a central control panel 11, comprising a panel body 111 and an extension body 112 connected to each other, the panel body 111 is provided with a receiving opening 1111, and the extension body 112 extends toward the center of the receiving opening 1111; and a charging pad 12, covering at least a portion of the panel body 111, and covering the extension body 112 and the receiving opening 1111.

[0035] Specifically, the extension body 112 is connected to the edge of the panel body 111 to form the receiving opening 1111. The extension body 112 can be connected to the panel body 111 by an integrated molding method, a bonding method, a clamping method, a threaded connection method, etc. The shape of the receiving opening 1111 can be a regular shape or an irregular shape such as a rectangle, an ellipse, a polygon with chamfers, etc. According to the size design of the charging area, the extension body 112 can be prepared according to a preset extension distance.

[0036] The charging pad 12 can be formed in an integrated manner, bonded, snap-fitted, threadedly connected, etc., and can be mounted on at least part of the panel body 111, on the extension body 112, and on the accommodating opening 1111, as long as the charging pad 12 can be relatively stably located on the upper surface of the central control panel 11.

[0037] For example, the surface of the extension body 112 facing the charging pad 12 and the surface of the panel body 111 facing the charging pad 12 and adjacent to the accommodating opening 1111 can be flush. At this time, the extension body 112 and the charging pad 12 can be connected by an integral molding method, a threaded connection method, etc.

[0038] For another example, the surface of the extension body 112 facing the charging pad 12 and the surface of the panel body 111 facing the charging pad 12 and adjacent to the accommodating opening 1111 may be uneven. In this case, the extension body 112 and the charging pad 12 may be connected by integral molding, bonding, snap-on connection, etc.

[0039] By additionally providing the extension body 112 , the contact area between the charging pad 12 and the central control panel 11 can be increased, the warping, denting and other undesirable conditions of the charging pad 12 can be reduced, and the supporting capacity of the central control panel 11 for the charging pad 12 can be improved.

[0040] The central control panel charging pad structure 1 provided in the embodiment of the utility model has at least the following technical effects: compared with the prior art, the central control panel charging pad structure 1 is additionally provided with an extension body 112 on the basis of the panel main body 111, so that the charging pad 12 can be in greater contact with the central control panel 11, thereby increasing the supported area of ​​the charging pad 12, strengthening the effective support for the charging pad 12, reducing the warping, depression and other adverse conditions caused by the long-term use of the charging pad 12, thereby increasing the service life of the charging pad 12 and improving the uniformity of wireless charging.

[0041] The specific structures of the central control panel 11 and the charging pad 12 are described below by way of example.

[0042] In some embodiments, the entire edge of the panel body 111 forming the receiving opening 1111 is connected to the extension body 112. In this embodiment, the entire edge of the panel body 111 forming the receiving opening 1111 is connected to the extension body 112, which can form an effective support for the charging pad 12 and reduce the warping, denting, etc. caused by long-term use of the charging pad 12. The entire edge of the receiving opening 1111 can be a regular shape or an irregular shape such as a rectangle, an ellipse, a polygon with chamfered corners, etc.

[0043] In other embodiments, the extension body 112 may be connected to a portion of the edge of the panel body 111 forming the receiving opening 1111 . For example, a plurality of extension bodies 112 may be arranged at the edge of the receiving opening 1111 at equal or unequal intervals.

[0044] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the thickness of the extension body 112 is less than the thickness of the panel body 111, so as to form a positioning angle 1121 at the connection between the extension body 112 and the panel body 111, and the positioning angle 1121 is configured to adapt to the wireless charging structure 21. Among them, the positioning angle 1121 can be a right angle, an obtuse angle, or a rounded angle, and there is no limitation on this. By adapting the positioning angle 1121 to the wireless charging structure 21, a limiting effect on the wireless charging structure 21 can be formed, which is conducive to the rapid positioning of the wireless charging structure 21 during installation. At the same time, it can also reduce the vibration separation of the wireless charging structure 21 and the center control panel 11 during driving, and further ensure the reliability of the mechanical structure. In addition, the thickness of the extension body 112 can also be reduced, and then the weight of the center control panel 11 can be reduced to a certain extent, and the investment cost of setting up the additional extension body 112 can be reduced.

[0045] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the charging pad 12 covers the receiving opening 1111 and is provided with a plurality of main heat dissipation holes 121. Specifically, the plurality of main heat dissipation holes 121 may be distributed in an array, in a circle, or in other regular or irregular manners. The shape of each main heat dissipation hole 121 may be the same or different, and there is no limitation on this. For example, the shape of the main heat dissipation hole 121 may be a regular shape or an irregular shape such as a rhombus, a rectangle, a circle, a triangle, a pentagon or a polygon above.

[0046] In this embodiment, the main heat dissipation holes 121 can disperse the heat generated by the electrical device during the charging process, reduce the concentrated distribution of heat in the electrical device during the charging process, improve the heat dissipation capacity and heat dissipation speed of the charging pad 12, and improve the safety of the charging process.

[0047] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, a plurality of support blocks 122 are provided on the surface of the charging pad 12 facing the receiving opening 1111, and the support blocks 122 are configured to be compatible with the wireless charging structure 21. Specifically, the support blocks 122 can be regular or irregular shapes such as square blocks, rectangular blocks, truncated cone blocks, and conical blocks. The support blocks 122 are overlapped on the top of the wireless charging structure 21, which can support the main body of the charging pad 12, ensure the horizontality of the charging pad 12, prevent the charging pad 12 from having concave or convex defects, reduce the unevenness of the electrical equipment during the charging process, and reduce the local overheating of the electrical equipment during the charging process. At the same time, it can also increase the service life of the charging pad 12 and reduce the replacement and maintenance costs and time.

[0048] When the charging pad 12 is provided with a plurality of main heat dissipation holes 121, a support block 122 may be provided in the non-hole area between adjacent main heat dissipation holes 121, and the number and distribution position of the support blocks 122 may be designed in detail according to mechanical structure calculations. For example, a support block 122 may be provided in each non-hole area where a main heat dissipation hole 121 is not provided, or in an alternate non-hole area. At the same time, a corresponding single non-hole area may be provided with one support block 122, or multiple support blocks 122 may be provided, and the arrangement may be performed through detailed mechanical structure calculations.

[0049] When the charging pad 12 is not provided with the main heat dissipation holes 121 , the number and distribution positions of the support blocks 122 can be arranged according to mechanical structure calculations without considering the influence of the main heat dissipation holes 121 on the spacing.

[0050] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the charging pad 12 has a plurality of auxiliary heat dissipation holes 123 in the area covering the extension body 112. In this embodiment, the charging pad 12 may or may not have the main heat dissipation holes 121, and there is no limitation on this.

[0051] Specifically, the plurality of auxiliary heat dissipation holes 123 may be distributed in an array, in a single row or column, or staggered with each other, without limitation. The shape of each auxiliary heat dissipation hole 123 may be the same or different, and may be the same as the shape of the main heat dissipation hole 121 or different from the shape of the main heat dissipation hole 121, without limitation. For example, the shape of the auxiliary heat dissipation hole 123 may be a regular shape or an irregular shape such as a rhombus, a rectangle, a circle, a triangle, a pentagon or a polygon above.

[0052] In this embodiment, the auxiliary heat dissipation holes 123 can improve the heat dissipation capacity of the charging pad 12, speed up the heat dissipation speed of the electrical device during the charging process, reduce the overheating of the electrical device during the charging process, and improve the safety of the charging process.

[0053] On the basis of providing the auxiliary heat dissipation holes 123, in some embodiments, the charging pad 12 and the central control panel 11 are connected together by injection molding, and the auxiliary heat dissipation holes 123 are configured to play a positioning role during the injection molding process. It can be understood that the charging pad 12 and the central control panel 11 can be an integrated injection molding structure.

[0054] Specifically, the central control panel 11 is prepared first, and then the charging pad 12 is combined with the central control panel 11 by secondary injection molding. Since the central control panel 11 has an extension body 112, in order to achieve a better injection molding effect, a positioning structure can be added during the secondary injection molding of the charging pad 12. The positioning structure ultimately forms the secondary heat dissipation holes 123 on the charging pad 12. In other words, the secondary heat dissipation holes 123 can actually play a positioning role during the injection molding process. In order to meet the requirements of secondary injection molding, for example, the central control panel 11 can be made of hard plastic material, and the charging pad 12 can be made of soft plastic material.

[0055] With such a configuration, the secondary heat dissipation holes 123 can prevent the charging pad 12 and the central control panel 11 from generating relative deflection in the injection molding cavity, thereby obtaining an integrated injection molding structure with better injection molding quality, thereby preventing the surrounding area of ​​the charging pad 12 from warping, and avoiding problems such as model mismatch, difficult installation, and loose fit caused by disassembly, thereby better meeting the wireless charging protocol requirements of various brands.

[0056] In addition, a plurality of protrusions may be provided on the surface of the charging pad 12 that is away from the central control panel 11. The plurality of protrusions are regularly distributed with the main heat dissipation holes 121. The plurality of protrusions may reduce the contact area between the electrical device and the charging pad 12, reduce overheating during charging, and also play an anti-slip role. A charging logo may also be provided on the surface of the charging pad 12 that is away from the central control panel 11.

[0057] Based on the same inventive concept, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The embodiment of the utility model also provides a sub-instrument panel wireless charging assembly 2, including a central control panel charging pad structure 1 as described in any of the above implementation methods, and a wireless charging structure 21; wherein the wireless charging structure 21 has a supporting table 211, an extension body 112 overlaps the supporting table 211, and the charging pad 12 covers the area of ​​the supporting table 211 in the accommodating opening 1111.

[0058] Specifically, the wireless charging structure 21 may include a wireless charger and a charging shell that wraps the wireless charger, the charging shell forms a supporting surface 211 on the surface facing the charging pad 12 , and the charging pad 12 covers the supporting surface 211 in the area of ​​the accommodating opening 1111 .

[0059] In the charging area formed by the accommodating opening 1111, a plurality of support blocks 122 are provided on the surface of the charging pad 12 facing the supporting table 211. The support blocks 122 may be regular or irregular shapes such as square blocks, rectangular blocks, truncated cone blocks, or conical blocks. The support blocks 122 are overlapped on the surface of the supporting table 211 to support the main body of the charging pad 12, thereby ensuring the horizontality of the charging pad 12, preventing the charging pad 12 from having concave or convex defects, reducing the unevenness of the electrical equipment during the charging process, reducing the local overheating of the electrical equipment during the charging process, and at the same time, also improving the service life of the charging pad 12 and reducing the replacement and maintenance costs and time.

[0060] When the extension body 112 and the panel body 111 form a positioning angle 1121, a limiting angle adapted to the positioning angle 1121 can be formed at the outer peripheral edge of the supporting table 211. On the one hand, the thickness of the extension body 112 can be reduced, and then the weight of the center control panel 11 can be reduced to a certain extent, reducing the investment cost of additionally setting up the extension body 112; on the other hand, the positioning angle 1121 and the limiting angle are adapted to each other to form a limiting structure, which is conducive to the rapid positioning of the wireless charging structure 21 during installation. At the same time, it can also reduce the vibration separation of the wireless charging structure 21 and the center control panel 11 during driving, thereby further ensuring the reliability of the mechanical structure.

[0061] It should be noted that the auxiliary instrument panel wireless charging assembly 2 can provide wireless charging services for electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and headphones.

[0062] Since the auxiliary instrument panel wireless charging assembly 2 adopts the central control panel charging pad structure 1 as described above, it has the same technical effect as the central control panel charging pad structure 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0063] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the utility model also provides a vehicle, including the above-mentioned auxiliary dashboard wireless charging assembly 2. Of course, the vehicle can also include conventional mechanical, electronic, communication and other structures such as a body, a control unit, a power unit, etc., to form a vehicle with complete functions and achieve normal use of the vehicle.

[0064] Since the vehicle adopts the sub-instrument panel wireless charging assembly 2 as described above, it has the same technical effect as the sub-instrument panel wireless charging assembly 2, that is, it has the same technical effect as the center control panel charging pad structure 1, which will not be repeated here. It also reduces the maintenance and replacement cost and time of the center control panel charging pad structure 1, can meet the wireless charging protocol requirements of more brands, and enhances the competitiveness of its own products.

[0065] It can be understood that the various parts in the above-mentioned embodiments can be freely combined or deleted to form different combination embodiments. The specific contents of each combination embodiment will not be repeated here. After this description, it can be considered that the utility model specification has recorded various combination embodiments and can support different combination embodiments.

[0066] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
