Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of automobile technology, and in particular to an armrest box and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the popularization of intelligence in the automotive industry and the rapid development of intelligent assisted driving functions, more and more car models are equipped with intelligent assisted driving functions. However, the current technology is far from meeting the requirements of autonomous driving. The driver is still the first person responsible for the vehicle. The driver always needs to pay attention to road conditions and be ready to take over at any time. Therefore, the driver's foot must always be on the brake to ensure that he can take over the vehicle in time.

[0003] In the related art, patent CN216300943U discloses a central channel armrest box of a car, including a box body and an armrest assembly connected to the outer wall of the box body, the armrest assembly includes a shell, the shell is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the box body, and the inner wall of the bottom surface of the shell is symmetrically and movably connected with a first threaded rod and a second threaded rod, the first threaded rod is connected to the second threaded rod by a belt, the bottom end of the outer wall of the first threaded rod is sleeved with a transmission gear, the outer wall of the transmission gear close to the second threaded rod is meshed and connected with a driving gear, the top surface of the driving gear is fixedly connected with a motor, and the upper ends of the outer walls of the first threaded rod and the second threaded rod are respectively threadedly connected with sleeves, and the top surface of the sleeves is movably connected with a support plate. The current vehicle human-machine interaction design mainly considers the human driving state. When in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended and cannot lean on the central armrest box. This posture is very uncomfortable. Maintaining this posture for a long time will make the driver's legs sore or even numb, and there is a certain safety risk.

[0004] Therefore, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air, causing discomfort to the driver, which is a problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present application provides an armrest box and a vehicle, which are used to solve the problem that when the vehicle is in an intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air, causing discomfort to the driver.

[0006] In the first aspect of the present application, in order to solve the above-mentioned problem, an armrest box is provided, including: a box body, a support member and a driving member, the box body is provided with a slide groove, and the slide groove is arranged toward the driver's seat; the support member is slidably arranged in the slide groove; the driving member is transmission-connected with the support member so that the support member slides along the slide groove; the support member has at least a first position during the sliding process, and when the support member is in the first position, at least part of the support member extends out of the slide groove to support the driver's legs.

[0007] In this way, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air. At this time, the driving part can drive the support part to slide outward. When the support part slides to a suitable position, the driving part can also fix the support part in this position. The driver can lean his right knee on the support part to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort. It avoids the situation where the driver's right knee is suspended in the air and cannot lean on the central armrest box. Maintaining this posture for a long time will make the driver's legs sore or even numb, and there is a certain safety risk.

[0008] In some embodiments of the present application, the armrest box also includes: a pressure detection module and a control module, the pressure detection module is arranged on the side of the support member away from the bottom wall of the slide groove, and is used to detect the pressure exerted on the support member; the control module is electrically connected to the pressure detection module and the driving member, and is used to determine the start and stop and driving direction of the driving member according to the pressure value detected by the pressure detection module.

[0009] In this way, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air. At this time, the driver can apply pressure to the pressure detection module. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor to start. The motor drives the support member to extend from the slide groove to the box body, so that the support member contacts the driver's right knee. The driver's right knee applies pressure to the pressure detection module again. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor to stop, so that the support member is fixed in this position. The driver can lean his right knee on the support member to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort.

[0010] In some embodiments of the present application, the driving member includes a motor; the armrest box also includes a screw, an external thread is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the screw, the screw is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the screw is arranged along the extension direction of the slide groove, and at least part of it is located in the slide groove; a threaded hole is opened on the side wall surface of the support member facing the bottom wall surface of the slide groove; the screw is connected to the threaded hole.

[0011] In this way, the support member is set in the slide groove. When the motor is started, the motor drives the screw to rotate, and the screw rotates in the threaded hole, thereby moving the support member along the extension direction of the slide groove. When the support member moves to a suitable position, the motor stops, and the screw can fix the support member so that the driver can lean his right knee on the support member to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort. Compared with the use of the pulley and the slide rail, the combination of the threaded hole and the screw is more stable when the support member needs to be fixed, which prevents the support member from sliding.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the slide groove cooperates with the support member, and the cross-section of the support member along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove is a polygon.

[0013] In this way, the cross-section of the support member perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove is set to a polygon, and the slide groove cooperates with the support member. When the motor drives the screw to rotate in the threaded hole, the support member can be prevented from rotating in the slide groove, causing the motor to be unable to drive the support member to slide or causing the support member to be unable to extend from the slide groove or the extended length does not match the instruction.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, the motor is disposed at the bottom of the slide groove.

[0015] In this way, the motor can drive the screw to rotate, and the screw rotates in the threaded hole, thereby moving the support member along the extension direction of the slide groove. Compared with setting the motor at other positions of the armrest box and then connecting it to the support member through other transmission components, this setting can reduce the loss of motor kinetic energy.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, a mounting groove is provided on the bottom wall surface of the slide groove, the motor is at least partially disposed in the mounting groove, and the output shaft of the motor is disposed toward the slide groove.

[0017] In this way, setting the motor at least partially in the installation groove can prevent the motor from shaking or shifting in position when the motor drives the screw to rotate, and the screw rotates in the threaded hole, thereby causing the support member to move along the extension direction of the slide groove, resulting in the motor being unable to drive the support member to slide or causing the support member to be unable to extend from the slide groove or the extended length does not match the instruction. Setting the output shaft of the motor toward the slide groove can reduce the loss of kinetic energy of the motor compared to setting the motor at other positions of the armrest box and then connecting it to the support member through other transmission components.

[0018] In a second aspect of the present application, a vehicle is provided, comprising: an armrest box according to any one of the above items.

[0019] Since the vehicle provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the armrest box as described in the first aspect above, the two can solve the same problem and achieve the same effect, and the present application will not elaborate on them one by one here.

[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, the armrest box also includes: a pressure detection module and a control module, the pressure detection module is arranged on the side of the support member away from the bottom wall of the slide groove, and is used to detect the pressure exerted on the support member; the control module is electrically connected to the pressure detection module and the driving member, and is used to determine the start and stop and driving direction of the driving member according to the pressure value detected by the pressure detection module; the vehicle also includes: a vehicle-machine system, the vehicle-machine system is electrically connected to the control module, and the vehicle-machine system is used to send control instructions to the control module to control the sliding of the support member.

[0021] In this way, the driver can input instructions through the vehicle system, and then the vehicle system transmits the instructions to the control module, so that the control module controls the start and stop of the motor, and further controls the extension and retraction of the support, so that the driver can control the extension and retraction of the support through the vehicle system, and can make the support extend to an appropriate length. Compared with controlling the extension and retraction of the support through the pressure detection device, controlling the extension and retraction of the support through the vehicle system is more accurate and sensitive.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present application, the vehicle system includes: a display for displaying the status of the support member.

[0023] In this way, the driver can understand the status of the support component through the display, avoiding repeated operations or damage to the support component due to unclear status of the support component.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present application, the vehicle system is used to control the sliding distance and sliding direction of the support member in the slide groove.

[0025] In this way, the driver can understand the length of the support member extending out of the slide slot through the display of the vehicle system, so as to facilitate the driver to extend the support member to a comfortable position. The user can input the length that the support member needs to be extended or retracted through the vehicle system to move the support member to a position comfortable for the driver. This is more convenient and quicker than moving the support member to a position comfortable for the driver by controlling the start and stop of the motor.

[0026] Therefore, the above technical features of the present application have the following beneficial effects:

[0027] (1) In this way, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air. At this time, the driving part can drive the support part to slide outward. When the support part slides to a suitable position, the driving part can also fix the support part in this position. The driver can lean his right knee on the support part to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort. It avoids the driver's right knee being suspended in the air and unable to lean on the central armrest box. Maintaining this posture for a long time will make the driver's legs sore or even numb, which poses a certain safety risk.

[0028] (2) In this way, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air. At this time, the driver can apply pressure to the pressure detection module. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor to start. The motor drives the support member to extend from the slide groove to the box body, so that the support member contacts the driver's right knee. The driver's right knee applies pressure to the pressure detection module again. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor to stop, so that the support member is fixed in this position. The driver can lean his right knee on the support member to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort.

[0029] (3) In this way, the support member is set in the slide groove. When the motor is started, the motor drives the screw to rotate, and the screw rotates in the threaded hole, thereby moving the support member along the extension direction of the slide groove. When the support member moves to a suitable position, the motor stops, and the screw can fix the support member so that the driver can lean his right knee on the support member to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort. Compared with the use of the pulley and the slide rail, the combination of the threaded hole and the screw is more stable when the support member needs to be fixed, thereby preventing the support member from sliding.

[0030] (4) In this way, by at least partially setting the motor in the installation groove, it is possible to prevent the motor from shaking or shifting in position when the motor drives the screw to rotate and the screw rotates in the threaded hole, thereby causing the support member to move along the extension direction of the slide groove, resulting in the motor being unable to drive the support member to slide or causing the support member to be unable to extend from the slide groove or the extended length not meeting the instruction. The output shaft of the motor is set toward the slide groove. Compared with setting the motor at other positions of the armrest box and then connecting it to the support member through other transmission components, this setting can reduce the loss of kinetic energy of the motor.

[0031] (5) In this way, the driver can input instructions through the vehicle computer system, and then the vehicle computer system transmits the instructions to the control module, so that the control module controls the start and stop of the motor, and further controls the extension and retraction of the support member, so that the driver can control the extension and retraction of the support member through the vehicle computer system, and can make the support member extend to an appropriate length. Compared with controlling the extension and retraction of the support member through the pressure detection device, controlling the extension and retraction of the support member through the vehicle computer system is more accurate and sensitive.

[0041] In order to enable ordinary persons in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. On the contrary, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the attached claims.

[0043] With the popularization of intelligence in the automotive industry and the rapid development of intelligent assisted driving functions, more and more models are equipped with intelligent assisted driving functions, but the current technology is far from meeting the requirements of autonomous driving. The driver is still the first person responsible for the vehicle. The driver always needs to pay attention to the road conditions and be ready to take over at any time, so the driver's foot must always be on the brake to ensure that the vehicle can be taken over in time. The current vehicle human-computer interaction design mainly considers the human-driving state. When in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended and cannot lean on the central armrest box. This posture is very uncomfortable. Maintaining this posture for a long time will make the driver's legs sore or even numb, and there are certain safety risks.

[0044] In the first aspect of the present application, in order to solve the above problems, an armrest box 100 is provided. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes: a box body 10, a support member 20 and a driving member 30. The box body 10 is provided with a slide groove 11, and the slide groove 11 is arranged toward the driving position; the support member 20 is slidably arranged at the slide groove 11; the driving member 30 is transmission-connected with the support member 20 so that the support member 20 slides along the slide groove 11; the support member 20 has at least a first position during the sliding process, and when the support member 20 is in the first position, at least a part of the support member 20 extends out of the slide groove 11 to support the driver's legs.

[0045] It should be noted that the shape of the slide groove 11 can be square, circular or pentagonal, and the shape of the slide groove 11 can be regular or irregular, which is not limited in the present application.

[0046] The driving member 30 may be a stepping motor, a servo motor, etc., which is not limited in the present application.

[0047] In this way, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air. At this time, the driving member 30 can drive the support member 20 to slide outward. When the support member 20 slides to a suitable position, the driving member 30 can also fix the support member 20 in this position. The driver can lean his right knee on the support member 20 to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort, so as to avoid the driver's right knee being suspended in the air and unable to lean on the central armrest box 100. Maintaining this posture for a long time will make the driver's legs sore or even numb, and there is a certain safety risk.

[0048] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the armrest box 100 also includes: a pressure detection module 40 and a control module. The pressure detection module 40 is arranged on the side of the support member 20 away from the bottom wall of the slide groove 11, and is used to detect the pressure exerted on the support member 20; the control module is electrically connected to the pressure detection module 40 and the driving member 30, and is used to determine the start and stop and driving direction of the driving member 30 according to the pressure value detected by the pressure detection module 40.

[0049] The control module may be disposed on the box body 10 , or on the support member 20 , or at other locations in the vehicle, which is not limited in the present application.

[0050] In this way, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, when the vehicle is in the intelligent assisted driving state, the driver's right knee is suspended in the air. At this time, the driver can apply a pressure to the pressure detection module 40. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. After receiving the signal, the control module controls the motor 31 to start. The motor 31 drives the support member 20 to extend from the slide groove 11 to the box body 10, so that the support member 20 contacts the driver's right knee, and the process ends; when the pressure is less than the set threshold, the process ends to prevent the driver from accidentally touching the pressure detection module 40 to start the motor 31.

[0051] The driver's right knee applies pressure to the pressure detection module 40 again. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor 31 to stop, so that the support member 20 is fixed in this position. The driver can lean his right knee on the support member 20 to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort.

[0052] When the support member 20 needs to be retracted, the driver can apply pressure to the pressure detection module 40. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. After receiving the signal, the control module controls the motor 31 to start, and the motor 31 drives the support member 20 to retract into the slide groove 11, and the process ends; when the pressure is less than the set threshold, the process ends to prevent the driver from accidentally touching the pressure detection module 40 to start the motor 31.

[0053] In a possible structural design, the support member 20 also has a second position during the sliding process. When the support member 20 is in the second position, that is, the support member 20 can no longer face the inside of the slide groove 11, one end of the support member 20 contacts the bottom of the slide groove 11, and the other end of the support member 20 extends out of the slide groove 11. The pressure detection module 40 is arranged on the side of the support member 20 away from the bottom wall of the slide groove 11.

[0054] In this way, when the driver needs the support member 20, he only needs to use his right knee to apply pressure to the pressure detection module 40. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor 31 to start, and the motor 31 drives the support member 20 to extend from the slide groove 11 to the box body 10. With this arrangement, the driver can determine the position of the pressure detection module 40 without the assistance of his hands or eyes, and the operation is more convenient.

[0055] In another possible structural design, the support member 20 also has a second position during the sliding process. When the support member 20 is in the second position, that is, the support member 20 can no longer face the inside of the slide groove 11, one end of the support member 20 contacts the bottom of the slide groove 11, and the other end of the support member 20 extends out of the slide groove 11. The pressure detection module 40 is arranged on the side wall surface of the support member 20. When the support member 20 is in the second position, the pressure detection module 40 is located on the outside of the slide groove 11.

[0056] In this way, when the driver needs the support member 20, he only needs to use his hands or legs to apply pressure to the pressure detection module 40. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. The control module sends a start signal to the motor 31 to control the motor 31 to start. The motor 31 drives the support member 20 to extend from the slide groove 11 to the box body 10. This arrangement can prevent the driver from accidentally touching the pressure detection module 40 during driving. The motor 31 drives the support member 20 to extend from the slide groove 11 to the box body 10, thereby affecting the driver's driving and posing certain safety hazards.

[0057] In another possible structural design, the support member 20 also has a second position during the sliding process. When the support member 20 is in the second position, that is, the support member 20 can no longer face the inside of the slide groove 11, one end of the support member 20 contacts the bottom of the slide groove 11, and the other end of the support member 20 is located in the slide groove 11. The pressure detection module 40 is arranged on the side of the support member 20 away from the bottom wall of the slide groove 11.

[0058] In this way, when the driver needs the support member 20, he only needs to apply pressure to the pressure detection module 40 with his hands. When the pressure is greater than the set threshold, the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor 31 to start, and the motor 31 drives the support member 20 to extend from the slide groove 11 to the box body 10. This arrangement can prevent the driver from accidentally touching the pressure detection module 40 during driving, so that the pressure detection module 40 converts the received pressure into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control module. When the control module receives the signal, it controls the motor 31 to start, and the motor 31 drives the support member 20 to extend from the slide groove 11 to the box body 10, thereby affecting the driver's driving and posing certain safety hazards.

[0059] Among them, when the support member 20 is in the second position, the other end of the support member 20 can be retracted in the slide groove 11, the other end of the support member 20 can also extend out of the slide groove 11, and the other end of the support member 20 can also be flush with the wall surface at the opening of the slide groove 11, and this application does not limit this.

[0060] The pressure detection module 40 may be located on the end surface of the support member 20 or on the side surface of the support member 20 , which is not limited in the present application.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the driving member 30 includes a motor 31; the armrest box 100 also includes a screw 50, an external thread is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the screw 50, the screw 50 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the motor 31, and the screw 50 is arranged along the extension direction of the slide groove 11, and at least part of it is located in the slide groove 11; a threaded hole 21 is opened on the side wall surface of the support member 20 facing the bottom wall surface of the slide groove 11; the screw 50 is connected to the threaded hole 21.

[0062] In this way, the support member 20 is set in the slide groove 11. When the motor 31 is started, the motor 31 drives the screw 50 to rotate, and the screw 50 rotates in the threaded hole 21, thereby moving the support member 20 along the extension direction of the slide groove 11. When the support member 20 moves to a suitable position, the motor 31 stops, and the screw 50 can fix the support member 20 so that the driver can lean his right knee on the support member 20 to relieve fatigue and improve driving comfort. Compared with the use of the pulley and the slide rail, the combination of the threaded hole 21 and the screw 50 is more stable when the support member 20 needs to be fixed, thereby preventing the support member 20 from sliding.

[0063] In a possible structural design, the motor 31 is a servo motor.

[0064] Among them, the servo motor can use a digital servo motor, which is controlled by digital signals to achieve higher control accuracy and performance; it can also use an analog servo motor, which is controlled by analog signals and is relatively cheaper. This application does not limit this.

[0065] In this way, the motor 31 is designed as a servo motor. The servo motor can ensure that the support member 20 can be moved to the position required by the driver at an appropriate speed with its advantages of high precision, smooth low-speed operation, fast dynamic response, low heat and noise, and high reliability. The servo motor also has the advantages of low heat and low noise, which can improve the driver's comfort in the car.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the slide groove 11 cooperates with the support member 20 , and the cross section of the support member 20 along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove 11 is a polygon.

[0067] In this way, the cross-section of the support member 20 along the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide groove 11 is set to a polygon, and the slide groove 11 cooperates with the support member 20. When the motor 31 drives the screw 50 to rotate in the threaded hole 21, the support member 20 can be prevented from rotating in the slide groove 11, causing the motor 31 to be unable to drive the support member 20 to slide or causing the support member 20 to be unable to extend from the slide groove 11 or the extended length does not match the instruction.

[0068] In a possible structural design, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support member 20 and the slide groove 11 are both in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and the length direction of the support member 20 is consistent with the length direction of the slide groove 11. The support member 20 can move in the slide groove 11 along the length direction of the slide groove 11, and the central axis of the threaded hole 21, the central axis of the support member 20, the central axis of the slide groove 11 and the central axis of the screw rod 50 are coaxially arranged.

[0069] In this way, the shapes of the support member 20 and the slide groove 11 are both set to be a rectangular parallelepiped. When the motor 31 drives the screw rod 50 to rotate in the threaded hole 21, the support member 20 can be prevented from rotating in the slide groove 11, resulting in the support member 20 being unable to extend from the slide groove 11 or the extended length not being consistent with the instruction. The center axis of the threaded hole 21, the center axis of the support member 20, the center axis of the slide groove 11 and the center axis of the screw rod 50 are coaxially arranged, so that the support member 20 can be more stable when moving in the slide groove 11, and the support member 20 can be prevented from being offset or stuck due to uneven force, which affects the driver's experience.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the motor 31 is disposed at the bottom of the slide 11 .

[0071] In this way, the motor 31 can drive the screw 50 to rotate, and the screw 50 rotates in the threaded hole 21, thereby moving the support member 20 along the extension direction of the slide groove 11. Compared with setting the motor 31 at other positions of the armrest box 100 and then connecting it to the support member 20 through other transmission components, this setting can reduce the loss of kinetic energy of the motor 31.

[0072] In other embodiments of the present application, the motor 31 is disposed below the slide slot 11 .

[0073] In this way, the motor 31 can drive the screw 50 to rotate, and the screw 50 rotates in the threaded hole 21, so that the support member 20 moves along the extension direction of the slide groove 11. Compared with setting the motor 31 at the bottom of the slide groove 11, the slide groove 11 can have a deeper groove depth, and the support member 20 can move a larger range along the extension direction of the slide groove 11 to adapt to the different needs of the driver, thereby improving the applicability of the armrest box 100.

[0074] The motor 31 may also be disposed above or on the side of the slide slot 11 , which is not limited in the present application.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a mounting groove is provided on the bottom wall surface of the slide groove 11 , and the motor 31 is at least partially disposed in the mounting groove, and the output shaft of the motor 31 is disposed toward the slide groove 11 .

[0076] In this way, the motor 31 is at least partially set in the installation groove, which can prevent the motor 31 from shaking or shifting its position when the motor 31 drives the screw 50 to rotate and the screw 50 rotates in the threaded hole 21, thereby causing the support member 20 to move along the extension direction of the slide groove 11, resulting in the motor 31 being unable to drive the support member 20 to slide or causing the support member 20 to be unable to extend from the slide groove 11 or the extended length does not match the instruction. The output shaft of the motor 31 is set toward the slide groove 11. Compared with setting the motor 31 at other positions of the armrest box 100 and then connecting it to the support member 20 through other transmission components, this setting can reduce the loss of kinetic energy of the motor 31.

[0077] In a second aspect of the present application, a vehicle is provided, comprising: an armrest box 100 according to any one of the above items.

[0078] Since the vehicle provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the armrest box 100 as described in the first aspect above, the two can solve the same problem and achieve the same effect, and the present application will not elaborate on them one by one here.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown, the armrest box 100 also includes: a pressure detection module 40 and a control module. The pressure detection module 40 is arranged on the side of the support member 20 away from the bottom wall of the slide groove 11, and is used to detect the pressure exerted on the support member 20; the control module is electrically connected to the pressure detection module 40 and the driving member 30, and is used to determine the start and stop and driving direction of the driving member 30 according to the pressure value detected by the pressure detection module 40; the vehicle also includes: a vehicle system, which is electrically connected to the control module, and is used to send control instructions to the control module to control the sliding of the support member 20.

[0080] The vehicle system may receive signals from the control module and the pressure detection module 40 , and may also transmit signals to the control module and the pressure detection module 40 .

[0081] In this way, the driver can input instructions through the vehicle system, and then the vehicle system transmits the instructions to the control module, so that the control module controls the start and stop of the motor 31, and further controls the extension and retraction of the support member 20, so that the driver can control the extension and retraction of the support member 20 through the vehicle system, and can make the support member 20 extend to an appropriate length. Compared with controlling the extension and retraction of the support member 20 through the pressure detection device, controlling the extension and retraction of the support member 20 through the vehicle system is more accurate and sensitive.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present application, the vehicle system includes: a display.

[0083] The display is used to display the state of the support member 20. The display may also have input functions such as touch. The user may understand the state of the support member 20 through the display, and may also issue required instructions through the display screen.

[0084] In this way, the display is used to display the status of the support member 20 , and the driver can understand the status of the support member 20 through the display, thereby avoiding repeated operations or damage to the support member 20 due to unclear status of the support member 20 .

[0085] In some embodiments of the present application, the vehicle system is used to control the sliding distance and sliding direction of the support member 20 in the sliding groove 11.

[0086] In this way, the driver can understand the length of the support member 20 extending out of the slide slot 11 through the display of the vehicle system, so as to facilitate the driver to extend the support member 20 to a comfortable position. The user can input the length of the support member 20 that needs to be extended or retracted through the vehicle system to move the support member 20 to a comfortable position for the driver. Compared with moving the support member 20 to a comfortable position for the driver by controlling the start and stop of the motor 31, this is more convenient and quicker.

[0087] Among them, the vehicle system can be set with multiple gears, different gears correspond to different moving positions of the support member 20, and the driver can select the gear as needed, so that the driver can adjust the support member 20 more quickly; the vehicle system can also display the length of the support member 20 extending out of the slide groove 11, and the driver can directly adjust it as needed, so that the driver can adjust the support member 20 more accurately; this application does not limit this.

[0088] In this way, the user can input the required extension or retraction length of the support member 20 through the vehicle system to move the support member 20 to a comfortable position for the driver. This is more convenient and quicker than moving the support member 20 to a comfortable position for the driver by controlling the start and stop of the motor 31.

[0089] The above are only specific implementations of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
