[0039] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0040] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 10 An armrest assembly 10 for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present application is described. The armrest assembly 10 includes a rotating shaft 11 and an armrest body 12. The rotating shaft 11 is arranged at the auxiliary dashboard of the vehicle and extends in the width direction. The outer peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 11 is sleeved with a first locking member 15. The armrest body 12 is rotatably arranged on the rotating shaft 11. The outer surface of the armrest body 12 is formed with a first supporting surface 121 and a second supporting surface 122 located in different planes. A second limiting member 14 is provided inside the armrest body 12, and the armrest body 12 can be selectively rotated along the rotating shaft 11 to switch between a first state and a second state; wherein in the first state, the first limiting member 13 abuts against one side of the second limiting member 14, and the first supporting surface 121 is suitable for supporting objects; in the second state, the first limiting member 13 abuts against the other side of the second limiting member 14, and the second supporting surface 122 is suitable for supporting objects.

[0041] At present, the car center armrest is an important part of the sub-instrument panel. The armrest can provide space for the left and right passengers to place their arms during long-term driving of the vehicle, meeting the passengers' needs for rest and relaxation. Due to the single function of the central armrest and the limited rotation angle, it is impossible to achieve a larger angle rotation of the central armrest.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, specifically, the armrest assembly 10 may include a rotating shaft 11 and an armrest body 12. The rotating shaft 11 may be disposed at the auxiliary instrument panel of the vehicle, and the rotating shaft 11 may be extended in the width direction. It should be noted that the width direction referred to in this application may be the width direction of the vehicle, i.e., the Y direction of the vehicle, the length direction referred to in this application may be the length direction of the vehicle, i.e., the X direction of the vehicle, and the height direction referred to in this application may be the height direction of the vehicle, i.e., the Z direction of the vehicle. The rotating shaft 11 may be fixedly connected to the auxiliary instrument panel, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 11 in the axial direction may be fixed to the auxiliary instrument panel by means of hole-shaft matching.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the armrest body 12 can be set on the rotating shaft 11, and the armrest body 12 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 11. The outer surface of the armrest body 12 can be formed with a first supporting surface 121 and a second supporting surface 122 located in different planes. It can be immediately noted that the first supporting surface 121 and the second supporting surface 122 can be two surfaces of the armrest body 12 in the thickness direction respectively. The outer peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 11 can be sleeved with a first limiting member 13, and the interior of the armrest body 12 can be provided with a second limiting member 14. The first limiting member 13 and the second limiting member 14 can be selectively matched to limit the rotation range of the armrest body 12.

[0044] like Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, further, the armrest body 12 has a first state and a second state, and the armrest body 12 can rotate along the rotating shaft 11 to switch between the first state and the second state. Specifically, in the first state, the first stopper 13 can abut against one end of the second stopper 14. At this time, the first support surface 121 can be used to support items. By abutting the first stopper 13 against one end of the second stopper 14, the armrest body 12 can be provided with a force in the height direction, that is, a force in the +Z direction, so that the first support surface 121 can be used to carry items or the arms of the driver and passenger. In this state, the armrest body 12 can be located near the front passenger, and the driver and passenger can place their arms or items on the first support surface 121 to relieve the fatigue caused by driving or sitting in the car for a long time, or provide additional placement space for personal belongings to facilitate the use of the space in the car.

[0045] In the second state, the first stopper 13 can abut against the other end of the second stopper 14. At this time, the second support surface 122 can be used to support items. By abutting the first stopper 13 against the other end of the second stopper 14, a support force in the height direction can be provided for the armrest body 12, so that the second support surface 122 can be used to carry items. In this state, the armrest body 12 can be located near the rear passengers, and the rear passengers can place items on the second support surface 122. For example, the rear passengers can place computers, books and other materials on the second support surface 122 to facilitate the rear passengers to work or study, providing convenience for the rear passengers.

[0046] In short, the armrest assembly 10 of the present application has an armrest body 12 and a rotating shaft 11, a first limit piece 13 can be provided on the rotating shaft 11, the armrest body 12 can be rotatably provided on the rotating shaft 11, and a second limit piece 14 is provided on the armrest body 12, the armrest body 12 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 11 and provide bearing capacity in different states through the cooperation between the first limit piece 13 and the second limit piece 14, so that the armrest assembly 10 can meet the needs of the front passengers while also being used for the rear passengers to place items, so as to facilitate the rear passengers to study or work, and meet the needs of the driver and passengers.

[0047] like Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a first limiting end 131 may be formed on the first limiting member 13, the first limiting end 131 may extend in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 11, and the first limiting end 131 may be respectively formed with a first limiting surface 1311 and a second limiting surface 1312 on both sides of the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft 11, and the second limiting member 14 may be arranged at one end of the armrest body 12 facing the rotating shaft 11, and the second limiting member 14 can extend in the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft 11, wherein the second limiting member 14 may be formed with a third limiting surface 141 and a fourth limiting surface 142 on both sides of the circumferential direction.

[0048] Furthermore, in the first state, the first limiting surface 1311 can abut against the third limiting surface 141. By abutting the first limiting surface 1311 with the third limiting surface 141, a force in the height direction can be provided to the armrest body 12, so that the first supporting surface 121 can be used to support items. In the second state, the second limiting surface 1312 can abut against the fourth limiting surface 142. By abutting the second limiting surface 1312 with the fourth limiting surface 142, a force in the height direction can be provided to the armrest body 12 after it is flipped over, so that the second supporting surface 122 can be used to support items, thereby ensuring that the armrest body 12 can provide bearing capacity in two states and meet the needs of drivers and passengers.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present application, the angle between the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the first state and the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the second state can be α, and α can satisfy the following conditions: 90°<α≤180°. It can be understood that the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the first state can be roughly parallel to the length direction of the vehicle, ensuring that the armrest body 12 can be used for the driver and passengers to place their arms or objects. When the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the second state, that is, the extension direction of the armrest body 12 after flipping, is greater than 90° from the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the first state, the armrest body 12 is already at the rear passenger position at this time. For example, α can be 100°, 150°, 180° or other degrees.

[0050] Preferably, the angle between the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the first state and the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the second state is 180°. At this time, the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the second state can be horizontal to the length direction of the vehicle, and the rear passengers can use the armrest body 12 to place office or study tools and other related items. In other embodiments, the angle α between the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the first state and the extension direction of the armrest body 12 in the second state can be greater than 180°, and the armrest body 12 can be set at an inclination angle according to the needs of the rear passengers, which is not limited here.

[0051] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the rotating shaft 11 may include a connecting section 111, a fixing section 112 and an installation section 113. The connecting section 111 may be connected to the auxiliary instrument panel of the vehicle. Optionally, the connecting section 111 and the auxiliary instrument panel may be fixed by hole-shaft matching, or the connecting section 111 and the auxiliary instrument panel may be detachably connected by screws or bolts. In other embodiments, the connecting section 111 may also be connected to the rear seat of the vehicle so that the armrest body 12 may be installed at the rear seat.

[0052] One end of the fixed section 112 can be connected to the connecting section 111, and a fastener 114 can be provided on the fixed section 112, and the fastener 114 can abut against the first limiting member 13. The mounting section 113 can be connected to the other end of the fixed section 112. A first mounting end can be formed on the mounting section 113, and the first mounting end can be used to install the first limiting member 13. When the first limiting member 13 is installed at the first mounting end, the fastener 114 abuts against the first limiting member 13 to fix the first limiting member 13 at the first mounting end. In some embodiments, the first mounting end can be constructed as two, the first limiting member 13 can be constructed as two and respectively installed at the two first mounting ends, and the fixed section 112 can be constructed as two and respectively located at the two ends of the mounting section 113 in the axial direction. Among them, the connecting section 111, the fixed section 112 and the mounting section 113 can be constructed as an integrally formed part.

[0053] like Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a first locking member 15 may also be provided on the rotating shaft 11, and the first locking member 15 may play a role in locking the armrest body 12. Specifically, a second mounting end may be formed on the mounting section 113, and the second mounting end may be used to install the first locking member 15. Optionally, the first limiting member 13 and the first locking member 15 may be arranged adjacent to each other, or the first limiting member 13 and the first locking member 15 may be constructed as an integral structure.

[0054] The armrest assembly 10 may include a second locking member 16, which may be disposed on the armrest body 12, and the second locking member 16 may be movable in the extension direction of the armrest body 12, thereby locking or unlocking the armrest body 12. In the second state, the first locking member 15 may abut against the second locking member 16, thereby locking the armrest body 12. When the first locking member 15 abuts against the second locking member 16, the first locking member 15 may provide a height-direction force on the second locking member 16, specifically -Z The directional force makes it impossible for the user to lift the armrest body 12, thereby preventing the passenger from accidentally touching the armrest body 12 and causing the armrest body 12 to rotate and causing the items on the second supporting surface 122 to fall off, meeting the user's usage needs and ensuring the stability of the armrest body 12 in the second state. The armrest body 12 can be unlocked by moving the second locking member 16 to separate it from the first locking member 15. After the armrest body 12 is unlocked, the passenger can move the armrest body 12 to a suitable position to avoid the armrest body 12 occupying the space of the rear passengers when not in use.

[0055] like Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the second locking member 16 may include a second limiting end 161, a fixing plate 162 and a pull wire 163, the second limiting end 161 may be movably arranged on the armrest body 12, and the second limiting end 161 can be selectively abutted against the first locking member 15, optionally, a supporting protrusion may be formed on the armrest body 12, the supporting protrusion may extend toward the second locking member 16, and the free end of the supporting protrusion can abut against the second limiting end 161, when the second limiting end 161 abuts against the first locking member 15, the armrest body 12 can be locked, and when the second limiting end 161 is separated from the first locking member 15, the armrest body 12 can be unlocked, the fixing plate 162 can be connected to the armrest body 12, and a fixing cavity 1621 can be formed inside the fixing plate 162, and at least a portion of the second limiting end 161 can be accommodated in the fixing cavity 1621.

[0056] Optionally, the fixing plate 162 and the armrest body 12 can be detachably connected by screws or bolts, or can be detachably connected by snapping or plugging, or can be directly welded and fixed to the armrest body 12 via contact surfaces.

[0057] The fixing plate 162 can be constructed of plastic material to reduce the wear between the fixing plate 162 and the second limiting end 161 and other structures inside the fixing cavity 1621. A reinforcing plate 164 can also be provided on the outside of the fixing plate 162. The reinforcing plate 164 can cover the outer surface of the fixing plate 162 and be connected to the armrest body 12 through bolts. The reinforcing plate 164 can be constructed of metal material, and the reinforcing plate 164 can improve the structural strength of the fixing plate 162.

[0058] The pull wire 163 can be arranged in the fixed cavity 1621, and a pull block 1631 can be formed at one end of the pull wire 163 toward the second limit end 161. The pull block 1631 can cooperate with the end of the second limit end 161 away from the first locking member 15. When the pull wire 163 pulls the pull block 1631, the pull block 1631 can move in the direction away from the first locking member 15, thereby driving the second limit end 161 to move synchronously, so that the second limit end 161 is separated from the first locking member 15, and then the armrest body 12 is unlocked.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, the second limit end 161 can be constructed as a locking pin, the size of the locking pin can be 4.5mm*6mm, and the cross-section of the locking pin can be constructed as a rectangle, so as to prevent incorrect assembly. At the same time, it can also prevent the locking pin from rotating itself, thereby increasing the overlap area with the armrest body 12 and reducing the local force pressure. Lubricating oil can also be applied between the second limit end 161 and the armrest body 12 to reduce the risk of abnormal friction and noise and increase the lubrication of the product operation.

[0060] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the second locking member 16 may further include a reset member 165, which may be disposed in the fixed cavity 1621, one end of the reset member 165 being able to abut against the second limiting end 161, and the other end of the reset member 165 being able to abut against the inner wall of the fixed cavity 1621, the reset member 165 being able to play a resetting role and provide elastic force to the second limiting end 161, when the armrest body 12 switches from the first state to the second state, the reset member 165 being able to provide an elastic force toward the rotating shaft 11 to the second limiting end 161, the second limiting end 161 being able to slide on a portion of the outer surface of the first locking member 15 until the second limiting end 161 rotates to the maximum position with the armrest body 12, the reset member 165 being able to drive the second limiting end 161 to move so that the second limiting end 161 abuts against the first locking member 15, so that the passenger does not need to manually lock, thereby providing convenience for the passenger, and in a specific embodiment, the reset member 165 may be constructed as a spring.

[0061] like Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, a limiting protrusion 123 extending toward the fixed plate 162 is formed on the inner surface of the armrest body 12 toward the second locking member 16. The limiting protrusion 123 can be constructed in plurality, and the plurality of limiting protrusions 123 can be arranged at intervals in the extension direction of the armrest body 12. The free ends of the plurality of limiting protrusions 123 can all abut against the fixed plate 162, thereby providing support force for the fixed plate 162. By adopting a plurality of limiting protrusion 123 structures, the friction and wear between the fixed plate 162 and the armrest body 12 can be reduced, thereby reducing abnormal noise, and avoiding the reduction of large-area contact matching accuracy. In a specific embodiment, the thickness of the limiting protrusion 123 can be set between 1.5 mm and 2 mm.

[0062] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the armrest body 12 may be provided with a handle 124, a moving block 125 and a hand box 126, part of the handle 124 may be arranged inside the hand box 126, one end of the handle 124 may be provided with a pressing surface 1241, and the other end of the handle 124 can cooperate with the moving block 125. A fixed shaft 127 may be provided on the armrest body 12, and the handle 124 may be arranged on the fixed shaft 127. When the passenger presses the pressing surface 1241, the handle 124 can be rotated along the fixed shaft 127, and the other end of the handle 124 can drive the moving block 125 to move, and the moving block 125 can be connected to the end of the pull wire 163 away from the second limit end 161.

[0063] Since the handle 124 can drive the movable block 125 to move in the direction away from the rotating shaft 11 when rotating around the fixed axis 127, the pull wire 163 can also move in the direction away from the rotating shaft 11, and the pull wire 163 can pull the pull block 1631, and the pull block 1631 drives the second limit end 161 to separate from the first locking member 15, thereby unlocking the armrest body 12. It can be understood that the passenger can unlock the armrest body 12 by pressing the pressing surface 1241. After the armrest body 12 is unlocked, the passenger can move the armrest body 12 to a suitable position to avoid the armrest body 12 occupying the space of the rear passengers when not in use. In actual use, the handle 124 can rotate 10° around the fixed axis 127, and the handle 124 can drive the movable block 125 to move 8mm.

[0064] The following is a brief description of a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0065] According to the embodiment of the present application, the vehicle is provided with the armrest assembly 10 of the above-mentioned embodiment. Since the vehicle of the embodiment of the present application is provided with the armrest assembly 10 of the above-mentioned embodiment, the armrest assembly 10 of the vehicle has an armrest body 12 and a rotating shaft 11.
