[0034] The embodiments of this application provide a floor mat and an automobile. Based on this, it is to alleviate the situation that sundries easily enter between the floor mat and the vehicle floor. See the following for details.
[0035] Next, exemplary embodiments according to this application will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings. It should be noted that these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited only to the embodiments set forth herein.
[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , an embodiment of the present application provides a foot mat for installation in a vehicle. A slide rail is provided at the bottom inside the vehicle, and a seat is provided on the slide rail. The seat is slidably mounted on the slide rail through a sliding bracket and can move along the slide rail. The foot mat includes: a main body 10, a dust-proof mat 20, and a zipper assembly. The following is a detailed description:
[0037] As Figure 1 shown, the main body 10 is used for laying on the floor inside the vehicle. A seat hole 15 is provided on the main body 10 for the seat inside the vehicle to pass through along the seat hole 15 to expose the seat. A slide rail hole 16 is also provided on the main body 10, and the slide rail hole 16 is correspondingly arranged with the slide rail. The main body 10 is used to provide basic protection for the floor inside the vehicle, reducing damage and dirt to the floor inside the vehicle.
[0038] Specifically, the shape of the slide rail hole 16 can be elongated, and the area of the elongated hole is larger than the area of the slide rail, so that the slide rail is completely exposed along the slide rail hole 16, avoiding interference with the movement of the seat on the slide rail.
[0039] The dust-proof mat 20, the periphery of the dust-proof mat 20 is connected to the periphery of the slide rail hole 16, and a gap extending along the length direction of the slide rail hole 16 is provided on the dust-proof mat 20. The dust-proof mat can be made of soft materials such as synthetic fiber, cloth, nylon and other materials.
[0040] The zipper assembly is installed on the gap of the dust-proof mat 20 for opening or closing the gap. Specifically, the zipper assembly can follow the position of the sliding bracket and slide, so as to enclose the area except where the sliding bracket passes through.
[0041] In this embodiment, the dust-proof mat 20 is used to cover the slide rail along the slide rail hole 16 to reduce the situation of sundries entering along the slide rail hole 16. The gap on the dust-proof mat 20 is used for the sliding bracket slidably mounted on the slide rail to pass through, so as to avoid the dust-proof mat 20 completely blocking the connection between the seat and the slide rail. The zipper assembly can be pulled along with the position of the sliding bracket on the slide rail, so that the zipper assembly can enclose the area except where the sliding bracket passes through, thereby reducing the exposed area of the slide rail and reducing the situation of sundries entering between the foot mat and the vehicle floor along the slide rail hole 16.
[0042] In an alternative embodiment, the main body 10 includes a first folding pad 11 and a second folding pad 12, and the first folding pad 11 and the second folding pad 12 are hinged.
[0043] The first folding pad 11 and the second folding pad 12 are hinged, enabling the footpad to be folded and retracted when not in use, reducing the volume of the footpad and making it easier to place in the vehicle or take out for cleaning and maintenance. Moreover, when installing the footpad, the position of the footpad can be flexibly adjusted according to the internal space of the vehicle to ensure a perfect fit. During installation, it is not necessary to overly bend the entire footpad, thereby reducing material damage caused by excessive bending.
[0044] Further, one end of the first folding pad 11 close to the second folding pad 12 is provided with a seat groove (not labeled in the figure), and the seat groove and the second folding pad 12 cooperate to form a seat hole 15. In some embodiments, one end of the second folding pad 12 close to the first folding pad 11 is also provided with a seat groove, and the seat groove on the first folding pad 11 and the seat groove on the second folding pad 12 cooperate to form the seat hole 15, so as to facilitate adapting to the seat sizes in different models of vehicles.
[0045] In an alternative embodiment, one end of the first folding pad 11 close to the second folding pad 12 is provided with a first slide rail groove 161, one end of the second folding pad 12 close to the first folding pad 11 is provided with a second slide rail groove 162, the first slide rail groove 161 and the second slide rail groove 162 are correspondingly arranged, and the first slide rail groove 161 and the second slide rail groove 162 cooperate to form the slide rail hole 16.
[0046] The first slide rail groove 161 and the second slide rail groove 162 cooperate to form a complete slide rail hole 16, enabling the footpad to more firmly cover around the slide rail, reducing sliding and movement. During the installation process, the positions of the first folding pad 11 and the second folding pad 12 can be adjusted according to the actual situation to ensure that the slide rail hole 16 is accurately aligned with the slide rail.
[0047] In an alternative embodiment, the body 10 further includes a pressing piece 18, and the pressing piece 18 is attached along the periphery of the slide rail hole 16, and the pressing piece 18 is used to press the dust-proof pad 20 onto the body 10.
[0048] The area of the dust-proof pad 20 can be larger than the slide rail hole 16, so that a part of the dust-proof pad 20 projects on the periphery of the slide rail hole 16. The pressing piece 18 presses the dust-proof pad 20 onto the body 10 along the periphery of the slide rail hole 16 to firmly fix the dust-proof pad 20 on the body 10, prevent the dust-proof pad 20 from shifting or falling off, and enhance stability.
[0049] The pressing piece 18 pressing the dust-proof pad 20 onto the body 10 can also effectively seal the periphery of the slide rail hole 16, prevent dust and dirt from entering the slide rail hole 16, and protect the slide rail and the seat movement mechanism.
[0050] Specifically, the pressing piece 18 can be made of metal, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel. Aluminum alloy is lightweight and has good oxidation resistance, being not easy to rust or corrode. Stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, can be used in various environments for a long time without rusting, and has high strength, which can effectively fix the dust-proof pad 20 and maintain stability.
[0051] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the zipper assembly includes two chain teeth 31 and a pull tab 32. The two chain teeth 31 are respectively fixed on both sides of the gap on the dust-proof pad 20. The pull tab 32 is slidably fixed on the chain teeth 31, and the pull tab 32 is used to pull along the chain teeth 31 to separate or engage the two chain teeth 31.
[0052] Exemplarily, when the seat slides from the first end to the second end of the gap along the first direction with the sliding bracket, the pull tab 32 can be pulled to slide from the first end to the second end and abut against the sliding bracket, so that the two chain teeth 31 from the first end to the second end of the gap are engaged with each other, and the area from the first end to the second end is closed. When the seat needs to be adjusted, the pull tab 32 can be pulled to slide along the second direction, which is opposite to the first direction, so that the chain teeth 31 on both sides of the gap are separated from each other, opening the gap, facilitating the seat to slide on the slide rail with the sliding bracket, and avoiding the interference of the zipper assembly with the movement of the sliding bracket.
[0053] Furthermore, the pull tab 32 is fixedly connected to the seat, so that the seat can drive the pull tab 32 to move. When the seat moves, the pull tab 32 moves with the seat, automatically separating or engaging the two chain teeth 31 without manual operation, improving the convenience of use. Moreover, the fixed connection between the pull tab 32 and the seat ensures that the zipper assembly is always in the correct position, preventing accidental detachment or misoperation.
[0054] In an alternative embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the pull tab includes a first pull tab 321 and a second pull tab 322. The sliding bracket is located between the first pull tab 321 and the second pull tab 322. When the sliding bracket slides to the middle area of the gap, the first pull tab 321 and the second pull tab 322 can respectively close the gaps on both sides of the sliding bracket to improve the covering effect of the dust-proof cloth, avoiding the situation that when there is only one pull tab and the sliding bracket is located in the middle area of the gap, one pull tab can only cover one side of the gap, resulting in the other side not being covered and being prone to entering sundries.
[0055] In some embodiments, both the first pull tab 321 and the second pull tab 322 can be connected to the sliding bracket.
[0056] In an alternative embodiment, there are two slide rail holes 16, and the two slide rail holes 16 are respectively located at opposite ends of the seat hole 15 and communicate with the seat hole 15. In most automobiles, the seat is slidably mounted on two slide rails through two sliding brackets, with one sliding bracket mounted on each slide rail, and the two sliding brackets jointly support the seat. Therefore, the two slide rail holes 16 can respectively correspond to the two slide rails, making this structure applicable to various vehicle models and seat layouts, and improving the versatility and adaptability of the foot mat design.
[0057] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , a plurality of grooves (not labeled in the figure) can be provided on the periphery of the body 10, and the structures, dimensions, and shapes between the plurality of grooves can be different to match the floor space inside the vehicle.
[0058] In an alternative embodiment, the body 10 of the foot mat can be a multi-layer structure.
[0059] Specifically, the body 10 can include a surface layer, an intermediate layer, and a bottom layer.
[0060] The surface layer is located at the uppermost layer of the body 10 and directly contacts the passenger's feet. The material of the surface layer can include materials such as leather, synthetic fiber, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), etc., with a neat appearance and relatively easy to clean.
[0061] The intermediate layer can be made of materials such as wood, aluminum, hard and soft plastics, etc., having appropriate hardness, not easily causing wrinkles on the foot mat, and not easily being bent and broken.
[0062] The bottom layer contacts the floor inside the vehicle. The bottom layer can be made of materials such as rubber, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), etc., so that the bottom layer has good anti-slip and wear-resistant effects, making the foot mat not easily slide on the vehicle floor and avoiding the foot mat from shifting.
[0063] In some embodiments, the body 10 can further include a waterproof layer to make the foot mat not easily get wet, thereby avoiding the foot mat from emitting peculiar smells or being corroded by water due to long-term moisture inside the vehicle. The waterproof layer can be made of materials such as polyethylene (PE), PVC waterproof film, etc.
[0064] It should be noted that the surface layer, the intermediate layer, the bottom layer, and the waterproof layer can also be multi-layer composite structures, that is, multi-layers of different materials are combined to form the surface layer, the intermediate layer, the bottom layer, the waterproof layer, etc.
[0065] This application also provides an automobile, which includes the foot mat described in any one of the above. The automobile can specifically be a gas-driven vehicle, an electric-driven vehicle, an oil-driven vehicle, and an electric-gas hybrid-driven vehicle.
[0066] Automobiles can include various types, such as sedans, taxis, commercial vehicles, etc. Such automobiles are suitable for using this type of floor mat to improve the interior hygiene and comfort.
[0067] It should be noted that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc. are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present application. The orientation terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contour of each component itself. For example, if the device in the drawing is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "on top of other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "beneath other devices or structures" afterwards. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both the orientations of "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the corresponding explanations are made for the relative spatial descriptions used here.
[0068] It also needs to be noted that the "one embodiment", "another embodiment", "embodiment", etc. mentioned in the present application refer to that the specific features, structures or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment are included in at least one embodiment described in the general description of the present application. The same expression appearing in multiple places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Further, when describing a specific feature, structure or characteristic in connection with any embodiment, it is intended that the implementation of such feature, structure or characteristic in combination with other embodiments also falls within the scope of the present application.
[0069] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own emphases. For the parts not detailed in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
[0070] It also needs to be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application, and do not limit the patent protection scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present application, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, shall be equally included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
