[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0017] See also Figure 1-2The utility model provides the following technical solutions: a lifting cup holder shell claw rebound anti-noise structure, comprising a claw 1, a spring 2, a slider 3, a tension spring 4 and a cup holder shell 5, the claw 1 is movably fixed on the outer wall of the cup holder shell 5, the claw 1 is connected with a torsion spring, a claw hole adapted to the claw 1 is opened on the outer wall of the cup holder shell 5, the claw hole is used for the claw 1 to rotate into the cup holder shell 5, a slider hole 51 is opened at the bottom of the cup holder shell 5, the slider 3 is located in the slider hole 51, the slider 3 can move in and out of the slider hole 51, the spring 2 is bent in the middle and one end is fixed in the slider 3, and the other end is located under the bottom of the claw 1, the tension spring 4 is sleeved on the outer bottom of the cup holder shell 5 and the tension spring 4 is connected to the slider 3, a supporting rib 6 is arranged on the cup holder shell 5, the supporting rib 6 supports the bottom end of the claw 1, a buffer 7 is arranged between the supporting rib 6 and the claw 1, the buffer 7 is fixed on the supporting rib 6 or fixed to the bottom of the claw 1, when the cup holder is lowered, The cup holder pushes the slider 3 to move outward along the slider hole 51, and the slider 3 drives the spring 2 to translate outward. The movement of the slider 3 also drives the tension spring 4 to be stretched, and one end of the spring 2 located at the bottom of the claw 1 pushes the bottom of the claw 1 outward to move, and the claw 1 rotates, so that the upper part of the claw 1 rotates toward the inside of the cup holder shell 5, so that the claw 1 clamps the water cup; when the cup holder rises and the claw 1 rebounds, the tension spring 4 pulls the slider 3 to move inward along the slider hole 51 to return to its position, and the slider 3 drives the spring 2 to translate inward, and the bottom of the claw 1 loses the thrust of the spring 3, and the claw 1 rotates to the outside of the cup holder shell 1 through its own torsion spring. After the bottom of the claw 1 rotates toward the cup holder shell 5, the support rib 6 and the buffer 7 support the bottom end of the claw 1. The setting of the buffer 7 prevents the support rib 6 from colliding with the bottom end of the claw 1 and making an abnormal sound. The spring piece 4 is not compressed by the bottom of the claw 1, so that the claw 1 is prevented from trembling back and forth and making an abnormal sound due to the multiple compressions of the spring piece 1 by the bottom end of the claw 1 during the rebound.

[0018] Specifically, the support rib 6 can also be arranged at the bottom end of the claw 1, and a buffer 7 is arranged between the support rib 6 and the cup holder shell 5. The buffer 7 is arranged on the support rib 6 or on the cup holder shell 5. In this way, after the claw 1 rebounds, the support rib 6 at the bottom end of the claw 1 is supported on the outer side wall of the cup holder shell 5, and the buffer 7 is arranged between the two, so that no collision noise will be generated.

[0019] Specifically, after the claw 1 rebounds, there is a gap or zero contact between the spring piece 2 and the bottom end of the claw 1, and no compression occurs between the spring piece 2 and the bottom end of the claw 1. The height of the end of the spring piece 2 below the bottom of the claw 1 from the cup holder shell 5 is less than or equal to the height of the support rib 6.

[0020] Specifically, the portion of the slider 3 located inside the cup holder shell 5 is provided with an inclined surface 31. During the descending process of the cup holder, the cup holder pushes the inclined surface 31 to move downward, and then the slider 3 is pushed outward. The portion of the slider 3 located outside the cup holder shell 5 is a slide bar 32 extending to the bottom of the cup holder shell 5. The end of the slide bar 32 is connected to the tension spring 4. When the slider 3 returns to its original position, the slide bar 32 is blocked by the bottom of the cup holder shell 5, and the slide bar 32 is located outside the cup holder shell 5.

[0021] Specifically, the buffer member 7 is one of felt, rubber lagging and rubber buffer pad.

[0022] See also Figure 3-6 Only one end of the spring 2 is set at the bottom of the claw 1. The claw 1 is supported by the spring 2 to maintain the final position during the rebound process. When the claw 1 rebounds, the torsion spring of the claw 1 causes the claw 1 to rotate and rebound. Then, under the action of the torsion spring, the bottom of the claw 1 compresses the spring 2. After being compressed, the spring rebounds to the claw 1. The claw 1 is rebounded and compressed by the torsion spring and the spring 2 many times, and finally stays at a position where the torsion spring of the claw 1 and the elastic force of the spring 2 are offset. During this process, the spring 2 shakes many times, thereby generating abnormal shaking noise, affecting the customer experience.

[0023] The motion process of the utility model is as follows: when the cup holder descends, the cup holder pushes the inclined surface 31 to move downward, and then pushes the slider 3 to move outward along the slider hole 51, the slider 3 drives the spring 2 to translate outward, the slide bar 32 on the slider 3 also drives the tension spring 4 to be stretched, and one end of the spring 2 located at the bottom of the claw 1 pushes the bottom of the claw 1 outward to move, and the claw 1 rotates so that the upper part of the claw 1 rotates toward the inside of the cup holder shell 5, so that the claw 1 clamps the water cup; when the cup holder rises and the claw 1 rebounds, the tension spring 4 pulls the slider 3 to translate outward, and the slider 3 moves outward. The block hole 51 moves inwards until the slide bar 32 on the slide block 3 abuts against the outer side of the bottom of the cup holder shell 5, and the slide block 3 moves back to its original position. The slide block 3 drives the spring 2 to translate inwards, and the bottom of the claw 1 loses the thrust of the spring 3. The claw 1 rotates to the outside of the cup holder shell 1 through its own torsion spring. After the bottom of the claw 1 rotates toward the cup holder shell 5, the support rib 6 and the buffer 7 support the bottom end of the claw 1, and the spring 4 is not compressed by the bottom of the claw 1, which avoids the claw 1 from trembling back and forth and making abnormal noises due to the spring 1 being compressed multiple times by the bottom of the claw 1 during the rebound of the claw 1.

[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
