[0024] In order to more clearly understand the above - mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present utility model, the solution of the present utility model will be further described below. It should be noted that, without conflict, the implementation manners and the features in the implementation manners of the present utility model can be combined with each other.

[0025] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present utility model, but the present utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the implementation manners in the specification are only a part of the implementation manners of the present utility model, rather than all of the implementation manners.

[0026] Combined with Figures 1 to 5 As shown in

[0027] Among them, a limiting groove 11 is provided at the lower end of the cup inlet, and after the cup holder 4 rises, the limiting edge 41 fits with the limiting groove 11.

[0028] Thus, by placing cup holders 4 of various sizes on the cup holder placement and replacement component, the user rotates the knob 6 to rotate the required cup holder 4 to align with the cup inlet, and activates the electric push rod 5 to firmly fix the cup holder 4 at the cup inlet, realizing the adjustment of the size of the cup holder 4, and solving the problem that when the size of the cup holder and the cup differ greatly, the cup cannot be effectively fixed, and the cup is likely to fall off when the vehicle is driving.

[0029] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, the cup holder placement and replacement component includes a rotating rod 2, the lower end of which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the lower end of the armrest body 1, the upper end of the rotating rod 2 passes through the upper surface of the armrest body 1 and is fixedly connected with a knob 6, a connecting rod 3, the number of connecting rods 3 is the same as the number of cup holders 4, and they are evenly installed on the rotating rod 2, one end of the connecting rod 3 is fixedly connected with the rotating rod 2, and the other end of the connecting rod 3 is fixedly connected with a cup holder support limiting ring 31, and the cup holder 4 can be placed on the cup holder support limiting ring 31 in a liftable manner. When the cup holder 4 descends, the limiting edge 41 fits with the cup holder support limiting ring 31.

[0030] Among them, the inner wall of the cup holder support limiting ring 31 is a smooth curved surface, and a bearing is provided between the lower end of the rotating rod 2 and the inner wall of the lower end of the armrest body 1.

[0031] Thus, when the user wants to put the cup into the cup holder 4, the user rotates the knob 6 to drive the connecting rod 3 on the rotating rod 2 to rotate, and then drives the cup holder 4 on the cup holder support limiting ring 31 to rotate.

[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a groove 12 is provided at the upper end of the armrest body 1, the knob 6 is located in the groove 12, and the knob 6 is provided with slots 61 having the same number as the cup holders 4, which are evenly opened on the side wall of the knob 6. A elastic limiting mechanism 7 is installed on the side wall of the groove 12, and the output end of the elastic limiting mechanism 7 is clamped with the slot 61. The elastic limiting mechanism 7 includes a through groove 72, which is horizontally opened on the side wall of the groove 12, a spring 71, one end of which is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the through groove 72, and the other end of the spring 71 is fixedly connected with an arc-shaped convex block 73, and the arc-shaped convex block 73 elastically fits with the aligned slot 61.

[0033] Among them, the surface of the knob 6 is wrapped with the same material as the surface of the armrest body 1, the part where the output end of the electric push rod 5 contacts the cup holder 4 is made of rubber material, and a switch 8 is installed on the outer wall of the armrest body 1, and the switch 8 is electrically connected with the electric push rod 5.

[0034] Thus, the connecting rod 3 on the rotating rod 2 rotates, thereby driving the cup holder 4 on the cup holder support limiting ring 31 to rotate. When the arc-shaped convex block 73 enters the slot 61 on the knob 6 through the spring 71, it proves that one of the cup holders 4 is aligned with the cup inlet.

[0035] The following combines the attached Figures 1 - 5 Describe a specific embodiment of the present invention:

[0036] As Figures 1 - 5 Shown in the figure, it includes an armrest body 1 provided with a cup inlet, a cup holder 4, the number of cup holders 4 is three, the sizes of the cup holders 4 are all different, a cup holder placement and replacement assembly, which is installed inside the armrest body 1, the cup holder 4 can be lifted and placed on the placement end of the cup holder placement and replacement assembly, a limiting edge 41 is installed at the upper end of the cup holder 4, and when the cup holder 4 descends, the limiting edge 41 fits with the placement end. The cup holder placement and replacement assembly rotates to drive the cup holder 4 so that one of the cup holders 4 is aligned with the cup inlet, an electric push rod 5, which is installed inside the armrest body 1 and aligned with the cup inlet, and the electric push rod 5 longitudinally drives the cup holder 4, and after the cup holder 4 rises, it fits with the cup inlet.

[0037] During actual use, when the user wants to put the cup into the cup holder 4, the user rotates the knob 6 to drive the connecting rod 3 on the rotating rod 2 to rotate, thereby driving the cup holder 4 on the cup holder support limiting ring 31 to rotate. When the arc-shaped convex block 73 enters the slot 61 on the knob 6 through the spring 71, it proves that one of the cup holders 4 is aligned with the cup inlet. When the user rotates to the required cup holder 4 to be aligned with the cup inlet, the switch 8 is turned on to start the electric push rod 5 to make the cup holder 4 rise. Since it is inside the cup holder support limiting ring 31, it will not shift. When the electric push rod 5 reaches the maximum stroke, the limiting edge 41 fits with the limiting groove 11, and the cup holder 4 fits with the cup inlet, and the user can put the water cup into the cup holder.

[0038] It should be noted that in this article, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "comprising one..." does not exclude the existence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising the element.

[0039] The above are only specific embodiments of the present utility model, enabling those skilled in the art to understand or implement the present utility model. Various modifications to these embodiments will be obvious to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model will not be limited to these embodiments described herein, but rather will be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features of the utility model described herein.
