Based on the embodiments of 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.

[0033] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly on the other component or there can be a central component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there can be a central component at the same time.

[0034] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this utility model have the same meaning as those commonly understood by technicians in the technical field of this utility model. The terms used in the specification of this utility model are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this utility model. The term "and / or" used in this utility model includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.

[0035] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the utility model provides a lifting cup holder 100, including a shell 10, a lifting tray, a first lifting mechanism and a second lifting mechanism.

[0037] The shell 10 encloses a receiving cavity, and the lifting tray is partially received in the receiving cavity and extends out of the shell 10. The first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism are both arranged on the outer periphery of the shell 10 and are located on opposite sides of the shell 10, and are respectively connected to the shell 10 and the lifting tray. The first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism are suitable for driving the lifting tray to perform lifting movement relative to the shell 10, and the combined force of the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism on the lifting tray passes through the center of mass of the lifting tray.

[0038] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 , the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism are symmetrically arranged relative to the center line of the receiving chamber, and in a cross section perpendicular to the center line of the receiving chamber, the line connecting the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism intersects with the center line of the receiving chamber. In other words, in a cross section perpendicular to the center line of the receiving chamber, the angle between the line connecting the first lifting mechanism and the center line and the line connecting the second lifting mechanism and the center line is 180°, forming a straight line, and the center line passes through the center of mass of the lifting tray, so the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism can provide a combined force that coincides with the center of mass of the lifting tray. In this way, the lifting tray is subjected to forces on both sides symmetrically relative to the center line of the receiving chamber, and the lifting movement of the lifting tray is more stable.

[0039] The housing 10 is used as a mounting and supporting base for other components. The housing 10 can be installed in a vehicle body to achieve the arrangement of the lifting cup holder 100 on the vehicle.

[0040] Optionally, the shell 10 includes a base 11 and a cup shell 12, the base 11 is provided with a first through hole 111, the cup shell 12 is connected to the base 11, the cup shell 12 encloses a central cavity, the first through hole 111 is connected to the central cavity and together constitute a receiving cavity, the inner wall surface of the first through hole 111 is flush with the inner wall surface of the central cavity, so that the receiving cavity forms a complete and unified inner wall, which facilitates the smooth movement of the lifting tray in the receiving cavity.

[0041] Optionally, the cup shell 12 includes a first shell 121 and a second shell 123, which are detachably connected, and the shapes and structures of the two shells may be the same or different, and the first shell 121 and the second shell 123 jointly enclose a central cavity. Exemplarily, the cross-sections of the first shell 121 and the second shell 123 are semicircular arcs, and both are thin shell-like structures, so that the cross-sectional shape of the inner wall surface of the accommodating cavity is circular, and the center line of the accommodating cavity is the axis of the housing 10, which is described below with this embodiment.

[0042] Optionally, the base 11 is further provided with a second through hole 112, which is spaced apart from the first through hole 111. The lifting cup holder 100 further includes a fixed tray 30, which is received in the second through hole 112 and connected and fixed to the base 11. The fixed tray 30 received in the second through hole 112 can also function as a cup holder.

[0043] Optionally, the housing 10 further includes a base 13 , which is connected to an end of the cup shell 12 away from the base 11 and closes the opening of the central cavity.

[0044] The lifting tray is suitable for moving in the receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity extends in a straight line. After the lifting cup holder 100 is installed on the vehicle, the receiving cavity is set to extend in a vertical direction, so that the lifting tray moves in the vertical direction, so that the lifting tray can drive the carried cups, bottles, etc. to move in the vertical direction to realize the lifting function.

[0045] Optionally, the shape of the lifting tray is adapted to the shape of the receiving cavity, that is, the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the lifting cup holder 100 is adapted to the shape of the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity. For example, in the cross section of the lifting cup holder 100, the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity form a circle, and the outer peripheral surface of the lifting cup holder 100 also forms a circle, and the centers of the two circles are concentric. In this way, the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity can limit the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting tray, and prevent the lifting tray from moving relative to the radial direction. Furthermore, the outer peripheral surface of the lifting tray can contact the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity and be suitable for relative sliding, so that the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting tray is more stable and reliable.

[0046] Optionally, the lifting tray includes a base 21 and a carrier 22, both of which are arranged in the receiving cavity, and the base 21 is arranged closer to the base 13 than the carrier 22. The carrier 22 can be detachably connected to the base 21, or the carrier 22 can be placed on the base 21, without limitation. The outer peripheral shapes of the base 21 and the carrier 22 can be adapted to the shapes of the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity, and further, both can slide relative to the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity. The base 21 is used to be connected to the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism to drive the carrier 22 to move, and the carrier 22 is used to carry water cups, bottles, etc.

[0047] Optionally, the housing 10 further includes a decorative shell 14, which is disposed on the end surface of the base 11 facing away from the cup shell 12, and is suitable for covering the base 11 and exposing the first through hole 111 and the second through hole 112, so that the lifting cup holder 100 has a complete, unified and aesthetic appearance.

[0048] The embodiments of the utility model do not limit the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism, and both are used to drive the lifting tray to perform lifting motion. The first lifting mechanism connects the shell 10 and the lifting tray, and the second lifting mechanism also connects the shell 10 and the lifting tray. Specifically, the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism are both connected to the base 11 and are both connected to the bottom bracket 21. When the cross-section of the receiving cavity is circular, the center line of the receiving cavity is the axis of the receiving cavity. When the cross-section of the receiving cavity is other shapes, the center line is the line connecting the geometric centers of the cross-sections at different positions, and the shape of the outer peripheral surface of the lifting tray is adapted to the shape of the surrounding side walls of the receiving cavity, that is, the center line of the receiving cavity is also the center line of the lifting tray, and the center line passes through the center of mass of the lifting tray.

[0049] Currently, the conventional lifting cup holder 100 has only one lifting mechanism, which causes the lifting tray to be subjected to force on one side during the lifting process, resulting in insufficient stability. The lifting tray may flip or deflect and rub against the shell 10 to produce abnormal noise and wear, and even the lifting tray may interfere with the shell 10 and cannot be lifted.

[0050] The lifting cup holder 100 provided by the embodiment of the utility model is provided with a first lifting mechanism and a second lifting mechanism. The first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism drive the lifting tray to perform lifting movement relative to the shell 10, and the first lifting mechanism and the second lifting mechanism are symmetrical relative to the center line of the accommodating cavity, so that the lifting tray is subjected to force on two symmetrical sides, and the resultant force passes through the center of mass of the lifting tray. The lifting tray is subjected to force more evenly, which improves the stability of the lifting tray, avoids the lifting tray from flipping or deflecting due to uneven force, and avoids the friction with the shell 10 to produce abnormal noise and wear, and also avoids the problem that the lifting tray interferes with the shell 10 and cannot be lifted.

[0051] In one embodiment, reference Figure 2 The first lifting mechanism includes a first coil spring 41. One end of the first coil spring 41 is connected and fixed to the housing 10, and the other end is connected and fixed to the lifting tray.

[0052] Specifically, one end of the first coil spring 41 is connected and fixed to the base 11, and the other end is connected and fixed to the bottom bracket 21. The first coil spring 41 can drive the bottom bracket 21 to rise and fall, thereby driving the carrier 22 to rise and fall synchronously. Compared with the traditional compression spring, the tension provided by the coil spring has a smaller variation range, and can even achieve a constant tension, which is conducive to the stability of the force applied to the lifting tray. However, the elastic force of the compression spring is not easy to control, which is not conducive to being used as a driving force source for the lifting tray.

[0053] In one embodiment, reference Figure 2 The first lifting mechanism also includes a first damper 42, which is fixedly connected to the lifting tray and movably connected to the shell 10.

[0054] Specifically, the first damper 42 is movably connected to the first shell 121. When the lifting tray performs lifting motion, the first damper 42 provides damping to make the lifting motion of the lifting tray substantially uniform.

[0055] The first coil spring 41 and the first damper 42 may be any feasible structures, and this embodiment does not limit them.

[0056] Optionally, the shell 10 is provided with a first slide groove 122, which connects the accommodating cavity and the external space of the shell 10, and the extension direction of the first slide groove 122 is the same as the extension direction of the center line of the accommodating cavity. The lifting tray extends out of the shell 10 from the first slide groove 122, and the other end of the first coil spring 41 is connected and fixed to the part of the lifting tray extending out of the first slide groove 122.

[0057] Specifically, the first shell 121 is provided with a first slide groove 122 that penetrates along its thickness direction, and the first slide groove 122 may or may not penetrate at least one end of the first shell 121 in the extension direction of the center line of the accommodating cavity. Optionally, the first slide groove 122 penetrates one end of the first shell 121 that is away from the base 11.

[0058] Specifically, the base 21 includes a lifting portion 211 and an extension portion 212. The lifting portion 211 is connected to the support 22. The outer peripheral surface of the lifting portion 211 is adapted to the surrounding side walls of the accommodating cavity. The extension portion 212 is connected to the outer peripheral surface of the lifting portion 211 and extends from the first slide groove 122 to the outside of the first shell 121. The extension portion 212 is connected to the first coil spring 41.

[0059] Optionally, the first damper 42 is connected to the base 21. Specifically, the first damper 42 can be directly connected to the base 21, or can be connected to the base 21 through an intermediate member.

[0060] By setting the first slide groove 122, the lifting tray can be extended from the first slide groove 122 and connected to the first coil spring 41, and can drive the lifting tray to move up and down along the first slide groove 122. The structure is simple, and the side wall of the first slide groove 122 can also play a guiding and limiting role.

[0061] Optionally, the first coil spring 41 includes a rotating shaft 411 and an elastic band 412. The rotating shaft 411 is connected to the housing 10, and the elastic band 412 is wound around the rotating shaft 411. One end of the elastic band 412 extends from the rotating shaft 411 and is connected and fixed to the portion of the lifting tray extending from the first slide slot 122, and the extension direction of the portion of the elastic band 412 outside the rotating shaft 411 is the same as the extension direction of the first slide slot 122.

[0062] Specifically, the rotating shaft 411 is connected to the base 11, and specifically, the rotating shaft 411 and the base 11 are rotatably connected or fixedly connected. The elastic band 412 is a metal band, such as a stainless steel band. One end of the elastic band 412 is connected and fixed to the rotating shaft 411, and the elastic band 412 can be completely wound around the rotating shaft 411 in the initial state. When the other end of the elastic band 412 is connected to the lifting tray, the elastic band 412 has already produced a certain elastic deformation. When the lifting tray is raised to the highest position, the other end of the elastic band 412 is closest to the rotating shaft 411, and the elastic deformation of the elastic band 412 is the smallest. When the lifting tray is lowered to the lowest position, the other end of the elastic band 412 is farthest from the rotating shaft 411, and the elastic deformation of the elastic band 412 is the largest. When the lifting tray is in any position, the elastic band 412 has a movement tendency to pull the lifting tray up.

[0063] The direction in which the elastic band 412 extends from the rotating shaft 411 is the same as the extension direction of the first slide groove 122, so that the direction of the pulling force applied by the elastic band 412 to the lifting tray is the same as the extension direction of the first slide groove 122, that is, the same as the extension direction of the center line of the accommodating cavity. In this way, the pulling force of the first coil spring 41 applied to the lifting tray is the same as the direction of the lifting movement of the lifting tray, so as to prevent the lifting tray from being offset due to the force in other directions and colliding with the shell 10 to generate noise and wear.

[0064] Optionally, the first damper 42 is connected in cooperation with the first slide slot 122. That is, the first damper 42 is connected in cooperation with the side wall of the first slide slot 122 to realize the function of the first damper 42 providing a damping force to the lifting tray.

[0065] Optionally, the first slide groove 122 is provided with a first matching portion 1221 on one of the side walls in the circumferential direction of the shell 10, and the first damper 42 includes a main body portion 421 and a second matching portion 422, the main body portion 421 is connected and fixed to the lifting tray, and the second matching portion 422 is matched and connected with the first matching portion 1221.

[0066] Specifically, the main body 421 is connected and fixed to the lifting tray, which can be any feasible way such as snap connection, screw connection, etc., without limitation. The second matching part 422 can rotate relative to the main body 421. The first matching part 1221 can be a rack, and the second matching part 422 can be a gear. The rack of the first matching part 1221 is fixed to one of the side walls of the first slide groove 122, and the gear and the rack are meshed. During the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting tray, on the one hand, the main body 421 follows the lifting and lowering of the lifting tray, and on the other hand, the gear of the second matching part 422 rotates on the rack of the first matching part 1221, which can ensure that the first damper 42 moves stably along the first slide groove 122. A damping mechanism (not shown) may also be provided inside the first damper 42. The damping mechanism includes but is not limited to a friction plate, a hydraulic damping device, etc. During the rotation of the second mating portion 422 relative to the main body 421, the damping mechanism provides damping for the relative rotation of the second mating portion 422 and the main body 421 to reduce the speed of relative rotation of the second mating portion 422 and the main body 421, thereby controlling the lifting and lowering speed of the first damper 42 and the lifting tray to achieve uniform lifting and lowering of the lifting tray as much as possible.

[0067] Optionally, during the lifting movement of the lifting tray, the direction of the resistance exerted by the first damper 42 on the lifting tray and the direction of the elastic force exerted by the first coil spring 41 on the lifting tray are both the extension direction of the first sliding groove 122 .

[0068] Specifically, when the lifting tray is at any position, the first damper 42 is located on the side of the first coil spring 41 facing the base 13. The direction of the resistance provided by the first damper 42 is always opposite to the movement direction of the lifting tray, that is, when the lifting tray is raised, the resistance of the first damper 42 is downward, and when the lifting tray is lowered, the resistance of the first damper 42 is upward.

[0069] The direction of the elastic force applied by the first coil spring 41 to the lifting tray is the pulling force of the elastic band 412 mentioned above, which will not be described in detail here.

[0070] The direction of the resistance applied by the first damper 42 to the lifting tray and the direction of the elastic force applied by the first coil spring 41 to the lifting tray are both the extension direction of the first slide groove 122, so that the external force applied to the lifting tray is in the extension direction of the first slide groove 122, that is, the direction of the center line of the accommodating cavity, and the lifting tray is subjected to uniform force. In this way, the lifting tray is prevented from being offset due to forces in other directions and colliding with the shell 10 to generate noise and wear.

[0071] Optionally, in the orthographic projection on the axial direction of the shell 10 (ie, the extension direction of the center line of the accommodating cavity), the positions where the first coil spring 41 and the first damper 42 are connected to the lifting tray are located on the same radial direction of the shell 10 .

[0072] Specifically, the end of the elastic band 412 of the first coil spring 41 away from the rotating shaft 411 and the end of the extension part 212 extending out of the first slide slot 122 are connected and fixed, and the first damper 42 is connected and fixed to the lifting part 211, and the connection position of the elastic band 412 and the extension part 212 and the connection position of the first damper 42 and the lifting part 211 can be spaced apart in the same radial direction, or can be spaced apart in the axial direction, and the two connection positions are located in the same plane passing through the center line of the accommodating cavity. In this way, the extension direction of the elastic force of the first coil spring 41 and the resistance of the first damper 42 are both axial to the shell 10, which is conducive to further improving the force uniformity of the lifting tray.

[0073] In one embodiment, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The lifting cup holder 100 further includes a first stopper 51 and a second stopper 52. The first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52 are both disposed on the outer periphery of the housing 10 and are spaced relative to each other in the circumferential direction of the housing 10. A second slide groove 53 is formed between the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52. The second slide groove 53 is connected to the first slide groove 122 and the second slide groove 53 extends in the same direction as the first slide groove 122. The portion of the lifting tray extending out of the housing 10 is received in the second slide groove 53, and the lifting tray is slidably connected to at least one of the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52.

[0074] Specifically, the extension portion 212 is slidably connected to at least one of the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52, and the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52 play a guiding and limiting role, so that the lifting tray has only the freedom to move along the extension direction of the second slide groove 53, and cannot move in other directions. During the lifting process of the lifting tray, the first stopper 51 and the second stopper 52 limit the extension portion 212 to ensure that it moves along the second slide groove 53.

[0075] Optionally, at least one of the first stop block 51 and the second stop block 52 is provided with a matching groove 521, the opening of the matching groove 521 faces the second slide groove 53, the matching groove 521 and the second slide groove 53 extend in the same direction, and the part of the lifting tray accommodated in the second slide groove 53 extends into the matching groove 521.

[0076] Specifically, the extension portion 212 extends into the matching groove 521 and can slide along the matching groove 521.

After descending to the lowest point, the lifting tray is locked with the locking mechanism and fixed at the lowest point. When the lifting tray is at the lowest point, the first coil spring 41 and the second coil spring 43 are in a state of storing full elastic potential energy.

[0084] 2. Lifting tray rising process: operate the unlocking mechanism to unlock the locking mechanism, the locking mechanism releases the lifting tray, the elastic band 412 of the first coil spring 41 and the second coil spring 43 contracts and provides an upward pulling force, the lifting tray starts to rise after overcoming the water cup and its own gravity and the downward resistance provided by the first damper 42 and the second damper 44, and can be locked by the locking mechanism after reaching the highest point, or can be limited by the housing 10, so that the lifting tray is fixed at the highest point. When the lifting tray is at the highest point, the elastic potential energy of the first coil spring 41 and the second coil spring 43 is released to the minimum state.

[0085] During the above-mentioned rising and falling process of the lifting tray, it is also possible to overcome the friction between the lifting tray and the shell 10, the friction between the first damper 42 and the side wall of the first slide groove 122, the friction between the lifting tray and the first stop block 51 and the second stop block 52, the friction between the second damper 44 and the side wall of the third slide groove, the friction between the lifting tray and the third stop block 54 and the fourth stop block 55, etc., which will not be elaborated.
