[0018] The present utility model will be further described below through embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , a car cup holder, comprising an outer shell 1, a mounting cover 2, and a sealing cover 3. The outer shell 1 has an opening facing upward, and a mounting part 101 is provided around the inner wall of the opening of the outer shell 1. A mounting hole 201 penetrates through the mounting cover 2 at a position corresponding to the mounting part 101, and the mounting hole 201 and the mounting part 101 are fixedly connected by bolts, so that the mounting cover 2 is detachably connected to the outer shell 1 to cover the opening of the outer shell 1.

[0020] A water retaining ring 202 is provided on the top surface of the mounting cover 2. The inner wall of the water retaining ring 202 penetrates through the mounting cover 2, and a cup holder body 4 with an upward opening is coaxially and spacedly arranged on the inner wall of the water retaining ring 202. The height position of the opening of the cup holder body 4 is lower than the height position of the opening of the water retaining ring 202. A plurality of connecting blocks 203 distributed in a circumferential array are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cup holder body 4, and each connecting block 203 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water retaining ring 202. A liquid discharge port 204 is formed in the gap between two adjacent connecting blocks 203, and each liquid discharge port 204 is communicated with the inner cavity of the outer shell 1.

[0021] When in use, the cup holder positions the water cup 9 on the mounting cover 2 by placing the water cup 9 into the cup holder body 4, with the inner wall of the cup holder body 4 adapted to the water cup 9. The water retaining ring 202 is coaxial with and spaced from the cup holder body 4, creating a gap for the user's hand to reach between the water cup 9 placed in the cup holder body 4 and the water retaining ring 202, facilitating the user to place and remove the water cup 9 on the cup holder body 4. The liquid spilled from the water cup 9 on the cup holder body due to shaking flows along the inner wall of the water retaining ring 202 to each liquid discharge port 204 and falls into the inner cavity of the housing 1, collecting the liquid spilled from the water cup 9, effectively reducing the cleaning difficulty of the cup holder and improving the user experience. Preferably, a first guiding surface 402 inclined towards the water retaining ring 202 is formed at the top of the cup holder body 4, and a second guiding surface 205 inclined towards the cup holder body 4 is formed at the top of the connecting block 203. The first guiding surface 402 and the second guiding surface 205 cooperate to guide the liquid towards the liquid discharge port 204.

[0022] A cup holder plate 5 is movably connected to the inner wall of the cup holder body 4. The cup holder plate 5 translates along the height direction of the cup holder body 4. The outer wall of the cup holder plate 5 is in abutting or clearance fit with the inner wall of the cup holder body 4. An elastic member 6 is provided between the bottom surface of the cup holder plate 5 and the inner bottom wall of the cup holder body 4. The elastic member 6 is a spring structure, causing the cup holder to have a tendency to move upward along the height direction of the cup holder body 4. When the water cup 9 is inserted into the opening of the cup holder body 4, the cup holder plate 5 supports the water cup 9 and buffers the impact when the water cup 9 is placed down. Preferably, two symmetrically arranged guiding members 501 are fixedly connected to the cup holder plate 5. A guiding groove 401 for the guiding members 501 to slide is formed through the inner wall of the cup holder body 4. The guiding groove 401 extends along the height direction of the cup holder body 4. The guiding members 501 are slidably connected to the guiding groove 401 to guide the moving direction of the cup holder body 4.

[0023] The bottom inner wall of the housing 1 is provided with a mounting sleeve 102 for the cup holder body 4 to be inserted, so as to guide the cup holder body 4 to be installed in the inner cavity of the housing 1. The outer wall of the cup holder body 4 is sleeved with a sealing ring 7 and slidably connected thereto. The sealing ring 7 corresponds to the position of each drain port 204. The end of the guide member 501 passing through the guide groove 401 is integrally formed with a support bar 502. The inner wall of the mounting sleeve 102 is provided with a slide groove 103 for the support bar 502 to be slidably connected thereto. The end of the support bar 502 is fixedly connected to the sealing ring 7. When there is no water cup 9 in the cup holder body 4, under the action of the elastic member 6, the cup holder plate 5 moves up to the guide member 501 and abuts against the top inner wall of the guide groove 401. The sealing ring 7 moves up with the cup holder plate 5 and abuts against each connection block 203. , at this time, the sealing ring 7 and each liquid discharge port 204 are interference fit, and each liquid discharge port 204 is closed; when the user puts a water cup 9 in the cup holder body 4, the cup holder plate 5 bears the gravity of the water cup 9 and moves downward, the elastic member 6 is compressed and contracts, and the sealing ring 7 moves downward with the cup holder plate 5. The outer diameter of the sealing ring 7 is larger than the inner diameter of the mounting sleeve 102, so that the top of the mounting strip contacts the sealing ring 7 to limit the downward movement of the sealing ring 7. At this time, the sealing ring 7 is separated from each liquid discharge port 204, and each liquid discharge port 204 is opened, so that each liquid discharge port 204 is opened when the water cup 9 carrying liquid is placed in the cup holder body 4.

[0024] The sealing cover 3 is sleeved on the water retaining ring 202 to cover its opening, the inner wall of the sealing cover 3 is threadedly matched with the outer wall of the water retaining ring 202, a connecting portion 302 is provided in the middle of the outer wall of the sealing cover 3, the outer wall of the water retaining ring 202 is sleeved with a connecting ring 8, the connecting ring 8 is provided with a connecting belt 801, the end of the connecting belt 801 is rotatably connected to the connecting portion 302, the inner wall of the sealing cover 3 is provided with an elastic pad 301, the elastic pad 301 is provided on the inner wall of the water retaining ring 202 and is interference fit, so as to seal and protect the water cup 9 placed in the cup body.

[0025] Of course, the above are only typical examples of the present invention. In addition, the present invention may have many other specific implementations. Any technical solutions formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
