Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automobile interiors, and particularly to an automobile sun visor. Background Art
[0002] An automobile sun visor is a board installed above the driver to prevent sunlight from dazzling. It can be flipped down when in use and flipped up when not in use. With the improvement of people's requirements for automobile sun visors, the functions of automobile sun visors are constantly enriched, and installing lenses in automobile sun visors has become a standard configuration.
[0003] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, after the lens of the existing sun visor is installed in the lens frame, there is a gap between the lens and the lens frame, so there is movable space for the lens in the lens frame, and the lens frame and the lens are assembled into one body through a fixed buckle. The assembled structure may not be closely matched with the sun visor body. Therefore, both the lens and the lens frame may shake in the sun visor, resulting in abnormal noise.
[0004] Referring to a sun visor with the application publication number CN 204687800 U, which has a concave cavity and a lens. The side wall of the concave cavity has at least two flanges, and the lens is accommodated between the flanges and the bottom wall of the concave cavity. Among them, an elastic element is also provided on the side wall of the concave cavity, and the lens is elastically pressed against the elastic element to fix the lens on the sun visor. The lens of the above sun visor needs to completely match the space formed by the concave cavity and the flanges to achieve stable fixation of the lens. If the thickness of the lens is too small, the lens is likely to shake between the flanges and the concave cavity.
[0005] The existing sun visor requires that the structure of the lens and the lens installation part be completely matched. Otherwise, the lens is likely to shake. If there is a lens frame, there is likely to be a gap between the lens and the lens frame, resulting in unstable lens installation, easy shaking, and noise generation. Utility Model Content
[0006] In view of the above problems, the present application provides an automobile sun visor to solve the technical problem that a gap appears between the lens and the lens installation part structure, resulting in easy shaking of the lens and noise generation.
[0007] To achieve the above object, in the first aspect, the present application provides an automobile sun visor, including an upper housing, a lower housing, a lens, and an elastic member. An upward-opening receiving cavity is provided on the upper housing. The lower housing is adapted to the upper housing. The lens is installed in the receiving cavity. The elastic member is located in the receiving cavity. The elastic member includes a fixed end and an elastic end. The fixed end is arranged in the receiving cavity, and the elastic end closely adheres to one side of the lens facing the lower housing.
[0008] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, the accommodating cavity is in a cuboid shape, and there are more than two elastic members provided in the accommodating cavity.
[0009] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, there are five elastic members provided in the accommodating cavity. Four of the elastic members are dispersed at four corners inside the accommodating cavity, and one elastic member is arranged at the central position inside the accommodating cavity.
[0010] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, the vehicle sun visor further includes a limit post, which is arranged on the lower housing and located between the lower housing and the elastic end of the elastic member.
[0011] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, the limit post is in a cylindrical shape.
[0012] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, a lens frame is provided in the accommodating cavity, the lens is installed in the lens frame, and the fixed end of the elastic member is arranged on the lens frame.
[0013] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, one end of the lens frame is provided with a lens fixing buckle, the other end of the lens frame is provided with a lens elastic buckle, the lens fixing buckle is provided with a first opening, the lens elastic buckle is provided with a second opening, and the lens is clamped between the first opening and the second opening.
[0014] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, the cross-section of the first opening is in a V shape.
[0015] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, the second opening includes an upper part and a lower part. The upper part is elastically movably arranged above the second opening, and the lower part is fixedly arranged below the second opening.
[0016] As an implementation manner of the present utility model, a lens cover is provided on the accommodating cavity. The lens cover covers the surface of the lens, and the lens cover is movably connected to the accommodating cavity.
[0017] Different from the prior art, in the technical solution of the present application, an accommodating cavity is provided on the upper housing. A lens and elastic members are installed in the accommodating cavity. The elastic members include a fixed end and an elastic end. The fixed end is connected to the accommodating cavity, and the elastic end closely adheres to one side of the lens facing the lower housing. After the lens is installed, the elastic member is deformed by the force generated when the lens is installed, and then the force is reversely applied to the lens. The lens then applies the force to the accommodating cavity, avoiding the gap between the lens frame and the accommodating cavity resulting in the shaking of the lens. At the same time, the limit post prevents the elastic member from being excessively deformed to stabilize the relative position of the lens and the lens frame on the upper housing, so as to prevent noise generated during the installation of the lens.

[0045] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figures 3 to 7, this embodiment relates to an automotive sun visor, which includes an upper housing 1, a lower housing 2, a lens 3, and an elastic member 4. The upper housing 1 is provided with a receiving cavity 11 opening upward. The lower housing 2 is adapted to the upper housing 1. The lens 3 is installed in the receiving cavity 11. The elastic member 4 is located in the receiving cavity 11. The elastic member 4 includes a fixed end 41 and an elastic end 42. The fixed end 41 is disposed in the receiving cavity 11, and the elastic end 42 closely adheres to one side of the lens 3 facing the lower housing 2.
[0046] The above sun visor can be provided with a snap-fit structure for connecting and fixing the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2. Among them, the upper housing 1 can be provided with a fixing member, and the lower housing 2 can be provided with a positioning member. The fixing members and the positioning members correspond one by one. After the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 are assembled, a cavity structure is automatically formed inside. Among them, the above receiving cavity 11 extends from a partial area on the surface of the upper housing 1 into the cavity structure to form a certain accommodation space inside the cavity structure. The receiving cavity 11 has only one opening. When in use, the lens 3 is placed into the receiving cavity 11 through the opening for installation. As Figure 7 shown, the upward opening direction does not refer to the usage scenario when the sun visor is hung in the vehicle. It means that when the upper housing 1 and the lower housing 2 are vertically placed on a horizontal plane, the opening is provided on the upper surface of the upper housing 1. The fixed end 41 of the above elastic member 4 can be disposed at the bottom of the receiving cavity 11, and a suitable elastic amplitude is selected to make it adapt to the lens installation position. When the lens 3 is installed into the receiving cavity 11, the elastic end 42 of the elastic member 4 abuts against one side of the lens 3 facing the inside of the receiving cavity 11. The lens 3 is subjected to the force of the receiving cavity 11, and at the same time, the elastic member 4 deforms under the force of the installation of the lens 3 to form a supporting force, and the supporting force is reversely applied to the lens 3, and the lens 3 then applies force to the receiving cavity 11, avoiding the gap between the lens installation part and the receiving cavity 11, resulting in the shaking of the lens 3.
[0047] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the receiving cavity 11 is in a cuboid shape, and two or more elastic members 4 are provided in the receiving cavity 11.
[0048] In this way, it is convenient to place the lens 3 in the receiving cavity 11. At the same time, the lens 3 is in contact with two or more elastic members 4. Compared with a single elastic member 4, the elastic supporting force received by the lens 3 is greater. Therefore, the lens 3 is less likely to shake in the receiving cavity 11 and is more firmly installed.
[0049] An installation part for the lens 3 can be provided inside the above receiving cavity 11. The shape of the lens 3 can be a regular shape, such as a rectangle, a square, a rhombus, and a circle, etc. The shape and specifications of the lens 3 need to be adapted to the installation part of the receiving cavity 11.
[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, five elastic members 4 are provided in the receiving cavity 11. Four elastic members 4 are dispersed at the four corners inside the receiving cavity 11, and one elastic member 4 is disposed at the center position inside the receiving cavity 11.
[0051] In this way, when the lens 3 is installed in the accommodation cavity 11, the lens 3 contacts five elastic members 4 dispersed in the accommodation cavity 11. The five elastic members 4 are deformed by the force of the installation of the lens 3, forming a greater supporting force. At the same time, the elastic members 4 are evenly distributed, and the lens 3 is more evenly stressed. The lens 3 then applies force to the accommodation cavity 11, making the installation of the lens 3 more stable.
[0052] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the automotive sun visor further includes a limit post 5, which is arranged on the lower housing 2 and located between the lower housing 2 and the elastic end 42 of the elastic member 4.
[0053] In this way, after the lens 3 is installed in the accommodation cavity 11 and deforms the elastic member 4, the limit post 5 abuts against the elastic end 42 of the elastic member 4, preventing the elastic member 4 from being overly deformed, so as to stabilize the relative position of the lens 3 and the lens frame 6 on the sun visor.
[0054] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the limit post 5 is cylindrical.
[0055] In this way, when the lens 3 is installed in the accommodation cavity 11, the circular cross-section of the limit post 5 abuts against the elastic end 42 of the elastic member 4. The circular cross-section has excellent stress performance, a smaller structural bending moment, and a more significant supporting effect on the elastic end 42.
[0056] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, a lens frame 6 is provided in the accommodation cavity 11. The lens 3 is installed in the lens frame 6, and the fixed end 41 of the elastic member 4 is arranged on the lens frame 6.
[0057] In this way, it is convenient to install the lens 3 in the lens frame 6. The shape and specifications of the lens 3 are adapted to the lens frame 6.
[0058] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, one end of the lens frame 6 is provided with a lens fixing buckle 61, and the other end of the lens frame 6 is provided with a lens elastic buckle 62. The lens fixing buckle 61 is provided with a first opening 611, and the lens elastic buckle 62 is provided with a second opening 621. The lens 3 is clamped between the first opening 611 and the second opening 621.
[0059] In this way, during installation, one side of the lens 3 is placed in the first opening 611 of the lens fixing buckle 61, and the other side of the lens 3 opens the second opening 621 of the lens elastic buckle 62, so that the lens 3 is successfully installed in the lens frame 6. After installation, the lens elastic buckle 62 tightens the lens frame 6, making the lens 3 immovable in the buckle. The lens elastic buckle 62 can move within a certain range, enabling the size of the lens 3 to vary within a certain range, avoiding cost increase caused by overly high precision requirements for the size of the lens 3, and after installing the lens 3, the lens 3 will not shake in the lens frame 6.
[0060] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the cross-section of the first opening 611 is V-shaped.
[0061] In this way, the V-shaped first opening 611 enables the lens 3 to be supported from above and below when the thickness changes, so that the lens 3 can be stably assembled into the frame 6 without play.
[0062] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the second opening 621 includes an upper member 6211 and a lower member 6212. The upper member 6211 is elastically movably arranged above the second opening 621, and the lower member 6212 is fixedly arranged below the second opening 621.
[0063] In this way, when in use, first fix the bottom of the end of the lens 3 through the lower member 6212 of the second opening 621, and then adjust the position of the upper member 6211 according to the specification of the lens 3. The upper member 6211 and the lower member 6212 cooperate together to enable the lens 3 to be stably loaded into the frame 6 without play, preventing the lens 3 from shaking. The lower member 6212 is movably arranged and can be telescoped within a certain range to adapt to the change of the lens size within a certain range, avoiding the cost increase caused by too high lens size accuracy, and after installing the lens 3, the lens 3 will not shake within the frame 6.
[0064] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, a lens cover 7 is provided on the receiving cavity 11. The lens cover 7 covers the surface of the lens 3, and the lens cover 7 is movably connected to the receiving cavity 11.
[0065] In this way, the lens cover 7 is used to block the lens 3, which can be blocked when the lens 3 is not in use to avoid distracting the attention of the vehicle occupants. At the same time, the lens cover 7 can protect the lens 3 and prevent the lens 3 from being broken by external impact; the user can adjust the lens cover 7 at any time to block or expose the lens 3, and the operation is simple and convenient.
[0066] Different from the prior art, a receiving cavity 11 is provided on the upper shell 1 of the technical solution of the present application. The receiving cavity 11 is filled with a lens 3 and an elastic member 4. The elastic member 4 includes a fixed end 41 and an elastic end 42. The fixed end 41 is connected to the receiving cavity 11, and the elastic end 42 is closely attached to one side of the lens 3 facing the lower shell 2. After the lens 3 is installed, after the elastic member 4 is deformed by the force of the installation of the lens 3, the force is reversely applied to the lens 3, and the lens 3 then applies the force to the receiving cavity 11, avoiding the gap between the mirror frame 6 and the receiving cavity 11 resulting in the shaking of the lens 3. At the same time, the limiting post 5 prevents the elastic member 4 from being excessively deformed to stabilize the relative position of the lens 3 and the frame 6 on the upper shell 1. So as to prevent noise from being generated when the lens is installed.
[0067] Those skilled in the art will understand that, although some embodiments herein include certain features included in other embodiments rather than other features, the combination of features of different embodiments means that it is within the scope of this application and forms different embodiments. For example, in the claims, any one of the claimed embodiments can be used in any combination.
[0068] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, rather than to limit them; although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims and the description of this application.
