[0042] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 6 A cup holder assembly 100 and a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present application are described.

[0043] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, according to the cup holder assembly 100 of the first embodiment of the present application, the cup holder assembly 100 includes: a housing 1, a cup holder 2, a driving assembly and a cup dropping assembly 4.

[0044] The shell 1 has a receiving chamber 1a and an avoidance hole; the cup holder 2 is arranged in the receiving chamber 1a and can selectively extend out of the avoidance hole; the driving component is arranged in the receiving chamber 1a, and the driving component has a power output end 32 and a power input end 31 for power connection, and the power output end 32 is suitable for driving the cup holder 2 to extend out of the avoidance hole; the cup dropping component 4 is arranged in the receiving chamber 1a, and is suitable for releasing the power connection between the power output end 32 and the power input end 31, so that the cup holder 2 is reset to the receiving chamber 1a under the action of gravity.

[0045] Specifically, a accommodating cavity 1a is formed in the shell 1, which can be used to install components such as the cup holder 2, the driving assembly and the cup drop assembly 4. The shell 1 can provide good support, fixation and protection for these components. The shell 1 is also provided with an avoidance hole, which allows the cup holder 2 to be exposed outside the shell 1 in an extended state so as to place items such as a water cup. The shape and size of the cup holder 2 can be designed according to actual needs to adapt to water cups of different sizes, and the cup holder 2 can be extended out of the avoidance hole or retracted from the avoidance hole, which can be controlled by the driving assembly and the cup drop assembly 4. Specifically, the driving assembly has a power input end 31 and a power output end 32. The power input end 31 can be driven by manual operation (such as rotation, push-pull operation, etc.), input power, and transmit power to the power output end 32. The power output end 32 is connected to the cup holder 2, so that the power output end 32 can drive the cup holder 2 to extend out of the avoidance hole along a preset trajectory. The cup drop assembly 4 can release the power connection between the power output end 32 and the power input end 31 of the driving assembly. When the power connection is released, the cup holder 2 will automatically return to the accommodating cavity 1a along a preset trajectory under the action of gravity, thereby realizing the one-key dropping function of the cup holder 2. This process is fast and smooth, and can prevent the water cup from spilling due to shaking during the descent.

[0046] It should be pointed out that the driving assembly and the cup drop assembly 4 of the present application are both constructed as mechanical mechanisms, and the lifting and lowering of the cup holder 2 is controlled by mechanical transmission, without the need for electric drive or electric mechanism.

[0047] According to the cup holder assembly 100 of the present application, the mechanical manual lifting of the cup holder 2 combined with the one-button dropping function can be realized through the driving component and the cup dropping component 4, without the need to set up an electric mechanism, thereby reducing noise, saving layout space, saving production and maintenance costs, and also improving the convenience of using the cup holder 2 and optimizing the user experience.

[0048] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the power output end 32 of the driving assembly is configured as a toothed plate, the power input end 31 is configured as a driving gear, the toothed plate is meshed with the driving gear, and the toothed plate is connected to the cup holder 2, and the cup drop assembly 4 is used to release the meshing of the toothed plate and the driving gear.

[0049] Specifically, the power input end 31 and the power output end 32 of the driving assembly are respectively constructed as a driving gear and a toothed plate. The toothed plate is meshed with the driving gear. The toothed plate can be constructed to extend in the height direction. The rotation of the driving gear can drive the toothed plate to move in the height direction. The toothed plate is connected to the cup holder 2, thereby driving the cup holder 2 to move in the height direction.

[0050] In addition, the cup drop assembly 4 can release the meshing state between the toothed plate and the driving gear to block the power transmission to the cup holder 2. When the cup holder 2 needs to drop with one click, the cup drop assembly 4 can intervene quickly and accurately to disconnect the power connection between the driving gear and the cup holder 2, thereby realizing the control of the position of the cup holder 2.

[0051] In addition, in some specific embodiments of the present application, the unidirectional moving stroke of the toothed plate in the height direction is constructed to be 50 mm, so as to control the lifting stroke of the cup holder 2 to be 50 mm. This is conducive to meeting the lifting requirement of the cup holder 2 while avoiding collision or instability of the water cup caused by the cup holder 2 rising too high, thereby ensuring that the cup holder 2 has good stability.

[0052] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the driving assembly also includes: a driving knob 33, which is rotatably disposed on the shell 1 and at least partially protrudes from the side surface of the shell 1, and a transmission shaft 34 is disposed on one side of the driving knob 33, and the transmission shaft 34 is connected to the driving gear to drive the toothed plate to move.

[0053] Specifically, the driving knob 33 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1, and at least a portion thereof protrudes from the side surface of the housing 1, so that the user can directly rotate the driving knob 33 by hand operation. A transmission shaft 34 is provided on the side of the driving knob 33 away from the operating end, and the transmission shaft 34 is connected to the driving gear, so that an effective power transmission path is formed between the driving knob 33 and the driving gear. When the user rotates the driving knob 33, the transmission shaft 34 will rotate accordingly, thereby driving the driving gear connected thereto to rotate. Since the driving gear and the toothed plate are in meshing state, the rotation of the driving gear will further drive the toothed plate to move, thereby realizing the extension or retraction function of the cup holder 2. Therefore, by directly rotating the driving knob 33, the user can easily control the position of the cup holder 2 without relying on a complex electric mechanism or other auxiliary equipment, further improving the practicality and operational convenience of the driving component, and providing the user with a better quality use experience.

[0054] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the cup holder assembly 100 further includes: a locking assembly 5, which is disposed in the accommodating cavity 1a and is suitable for allowing the cup holder 2 to hover at any position.

[0055] Specifically, the locking assembly 5 can be disposed in the accommodating cavity 1a, and the locking assembly 5 is used to enable the cup holder 2 to hover at any position. When the user wishes to adjust the position of the cup holder 2, the driving knob 33 can be operated to drive the driving gear and the toothed plate, thereby driving the cup holder 2 to move. When the cup holder 2 reaches the position where the user wishes to hover, the locking assembly 5 can intervene to lock the cup holder 2, so that the cup holder 2 remains in this position until the user operates again to release the locking state. By providing the locking assembly 5, the flexibility and practicality of the cup holder assembly 100 can be improved, allowing the user to freely adjust the position of the cup holder 2 as needed, and can also achieve stable hovering at any position, further improving the user experience.

[0056] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the locking assembly 5 includes a pawl plate 51 and a ratchet 52, the ratchet 52 is arranged on the transmission shaft 34, the pawl plate 51 is arranged on one side of the driving knob 33, and the ratchet 52 and the pawl plate 51 are self-lockingly matched.

[0057] Specifically, the ratchet 52 can be arranged on the transmission shaft 34. When the driving knob 33 rotates, the transmission shaft 34 can drive the ratchet 52 to rotate together to drive the entire driving assembly to work. The ratchet plate 51 can be arranged on one side of the driving knob 33, adjacent to the ratchet 52. The ratchet 52 can be provided with a ratchet 53, and the ratchet 53 can cooperate with the tooth groove on the ratchet plate 51 to form a self-locking mechanism. Specifically, when the ratchet 52 rotates in a first direction (the direction of driving the cup holder 2 to extend), the ratchet 53 is driven by the ratchet 52 to rotate. At this time, no resistance is generated between the ratchet plate 51 and the ratchet 52, allowing power to be transmitted smoothly. However, when the ratchet 52 attempts to rotate in a direction opposite to the first direction (i.e., the direction of retracting the cup holder 2), the ratchet 53 will be stuck in the tooth groove of the ratchet plate 51, preventing it from continuing to rotate, thereby achieving a self-locking effect. Therefore, by utilizing the self-locking cooperation of the pawl plate 51 and the ratchet 52, the cup holder 2 can be stably suspended at any position. Even if there is a slight vibration or impact force from the outside, the cup holder 2 will remain in place due to the self-locking characteristics of the ratchet 52 mechanism, effectively ensuring the reliability and stability of the cup holder 2 suspension.

[0058] In addition, if Figure 5As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present application, a compression spring 54 is provided on the ratchet 52 to lift the pawl 53 and keep it in the locked position so as not to fall. Due to the provision of the ratchet 52, the pawl plate 51, the pawl 53, the compression spring 54 and other mechanisms, during the process of rotating the driving knob 33 to lift the cup holder 2, the compression spring 54 always lifts the pawl 53, and a clear stepping prompt sound can be produced during the process of the pawl 53 rubbing against the pawl plate 51, prompting the user to hover the cup holder 2 at any position and lock it firmly. The stepping prompt sound gives the user a comfortable sound experience, which is similar to the feeling of real-time feedback of the sound of each gear turning in a machine.

[0059] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the shell 1 includes an upper panel 11 and a side panel 12, an avoidance hole is formed in the upper panel 11, an operating hole is formed in the side panel 12, and a cup dropping button 41 of the cup dropping assembly 4 can be movably arranged in the operating hole.

[0060] Specifically, the upper panel 11 can extend in the horizontal direction, and the side panel 12 can extend in the height direction. An avoidance hole is formed on the upper panel 11, and an operation hole is formed on the side panel 12. Both the avoidance hole and the operation hole are connected to the accommodating chamber 1a. The avoidance hole is used to enable the cup holder 2 to smoothly expose the upper surface of the shell 1 in the extended state, so that the user can take and put items such as water cups; the cup drop button 41 of the cup drop assembly 4 is installed at the operation hole, and the cup drop button 41 protrudes from the side panel 12 to ensure that the user can easily touch the cup drop button 41. When the user presses the cup drop button 41, the cup drop assembly 4 can be triggered to release the power connection between the power output end 32 and the power input end 31, so that the cup holder 2 can be automatically reset to the accommodating chamber 1a under the action of gravity. By movably setting the cup drop button 41 in the operation hole of the side panel 12, the convenience of use of the cup holder assembly 100 can be improved, and the overall appearance of the cup holder assembly 100 can be made more concise and beautiful, which can improve the sense of quality.

[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the cup dropping assembly 4 includes: a cup dropping button 41 and a linkage rod 42, the cup dropping button 41 is linked with the linkage rod 42, the free end of the linkage rod 42 abuts against the power input end 31 or the power output end 32, and is suitable for pulling the power input end 31 or the power output end 32 to disconnect the two from the power connection.

[0062] Specifically, the cup drop assembly 4 has a cup drop button 41 and a linkage rod 42, one end of the linkage rod 42 is linked with the cup drop button 41, and the other end is a free end, and is suitable for abutting against the power input end 31 or the power output end 32 of the drive assembly. When the cup drop button 41 is pressed, the linkage rod 42 can move accordingly, and pull the power input end 31 or the power output end 32 through its free end to release the power connection between the two, and once the power connection is released, the cup holder 2 is no longer driven by the drive assembly. At this time, under the action of gravity, the cup holder 2 can automatically reset to the accommodating cavity 1a along a preset trajectory. The entire reset process is smooth and rapid, and does not require additional operations by the user, which can greatly improve the convenience and efficiency of use and improve the automation of the cup holder assembly 100.

[0063] like Figure 5 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the transmission shaft 34 is configured as a telescopic shaft, and the linkage rod 42 is suitable for driving the driving gear to move away from the toothed plate.

[0064] Specifically, the transmission shaft 34 can be constructed as a telescopic shaft, and the linkage rod 42 can be connected to the transmission shaft 34 through its free end. When the cup drop button 41 is pressed, the linkage rod 42 can cause the transmission shaft 34 to telescope. Since the transmission shaft 34 is connected to the driving gear, the telescopic movement of the transmission shaft 34 can drive the driving gear to move together, so that the driving gear moves away from the toothed plate. It can be understood that the toothed plate and the driving gear are originally in a meshing state. When the driving gear is pulled away from the toothed plate by a certain distance, the meshing relationship between the two can be released. At this time, the cup holder 2 is no longer driven by the driving component, so that the automatic reset function can be smoothly realized.

[0065] It should be pointed out that the key stroke of the cup drop button 41 is greater than the meshing width between the toothed plate and the driving gear. Preferably, in some specific embodiments of the present application, the key stroke of the cup drop button 41 is 8 mm, and the meshing width between the toothed plate and the driving gear is 6 mm. When the cup drop button 41 is pressed, the driving gear can be pushed to move 8 mm along the axial direction, and the meshing width between the toothed plate and the driving gear is 6 mm, so that the driving gear can move to the meshing range of the toothed plate and the driving gear and disengage the meshing state, thereby enabling the cup holder 2 to fall to the initial position under the action of gravity.

[0066] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, according to some embodiments of the present application, the cup holder assembly 100 further includes: a reset member 6, the reset member 6 includes: a guide rod 61 and an elastic member 62 sleeved on the guide rod 61, one end of the elastic member 62 is connected to the driving knob 33, and the other end of the elastic member 62 is connected to the driving gear, the transmission shaft 34 is formed as the guide rod 61, or the guide rod 61 is connected to the driving knob 33.

[0067] Specifically, the reset member 6 is composed of a guide rod 61 and an elastic member 62 sleeved on the guide rod 61. The two ends of the elastic member 62 are respectively connected to the drive knob 33 and the drive gear. When the cup drop button 41 is pressed and the linkage rod 42 is driven to compress the transmission shaft 34 to pull the drive gear away from the toothed plate, the elastic member 62 is elastically deformed and compressed. When the cup holder 2 drops to the initial position with one click and the cup drop button 41 is released, under the action of the restoring force of the elastic member 62, the elastic member 62 can drive the drive gear, the transmission shaft 34, the cup drop button 41 and other components to reset, so as to prepare for the next one-click drop of the cup holder 2. Among them, the guide rod 61 can play a good guiding and supporting role in the compression and restoring movement of the elastic member 62, and can provide a stable path and direction for the elastic member 62, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the reset process of the cup holder assembly 100.

[0068] It should be pointed out that there are two ways to implement the guide rod 61. One is that the transmission shaft 34 is directly formed as the guide rod 61. In this way, the transmission shaft 34 is used as the guide rod 61 of the reset member 6 while pulling the drive gear, which can reduce the number of components, improve the compactness of the structure, and improve work efficiency; the other is that the guide rod 61 is connected to the drive knob 33. In this way, the transmission shaft 34 and the guide rod 61 are designed separately, and the two work together to complete the reset work. Regardless of which of the above methods is adopted, one end of the elastic member 62 is connected to the drive knob 33, and the other end is connected to the drive gear. In this way, after the cup drop button 41 is released, the elastic member 62 will quickly restore its initial length, push the drive gear and other movements, until it returns to the initial position. In addition, since the elastic member 62 has a certain damping effect, the reset process will also be relatively smooth, which can reduce impact and noise, and can further optimize the user experience.

[0069] Preferably, the reset member 6 is constructed as a spring member. Since a spring has the advantages of high elasticity, good durability and low cost, constructing the reset member 6 as a spring member is beneficial to improving the working performance of the reset member 6 and saving costs.
