[0027] See Figures 1 to 5 , a linkage bracket for a cup holder, comprising a cup holder housing 1. The front end of the cup holder housing 1 is an open structure. A plurality of mounting and mating parts are provided on the cup holder housing 1. The cup holder assembly 2 is arranged in the cup holder housing 1 through the mounting and mating parts. The cup holder assembly 2 in the cup holder housing 1 can be pulled out from the open structure, that is, the opening of the cup holder housing 1, through the operating part at the front end of the cup holder assembly 2, so that it can be extended under the action of the assembly, and it can play a role in supporting and limiting the cup. When it is stored in the cup holder housing 1, it can be folded and stored in a relatively small space, saving the storage space in the vehicle.

[0028] The cup holder assembly 2 includes a cup holder panel 21. A through hole 211 through which the cup can pass is provided on the cup holder panel. A rotating support structure 22 is arranged in cooperation with the cup holder panel 21 to cooperate with the unfolding and storage of the cup holder panel 21. Of course, the rotating support structure 22 is connected to the cup holder 23.

[0029] One end of the cup holder assembly away from the opening is provided with a linkage bracket that is linked with the cup holder assembly 2 and can keep the cup holder assembly 2 stable in the working state.

[0030] Specifically, the linkage bracket includes a support frame assembly 3 and a linkage plate 4.

[0031] Among them, the support frame assembly 3 includes a support plate 31, a linkage frame 32 and a torsion spring 33. The support plate 31 is rotatably connected to the linkage frame 32. The torsion spring 33 is sleeved on the support plate 31 and generates a tightening force between the support plate 31 and the linkage frame 32.

[0032] A support surface 311 is provided on the end face of one end of the support plate 31. Support arms extend on both sides of the other end of the support plate 31. The support arms are symmetrically arranged and include a first support arm 312 and a second support arm 313. Connecting positions are respectively provided on the first support arm 312 and the second support arm 313. Among them, a first rotation connection position 312a and a first mating connection position 312b are provided on the first support arm 312, and a second rotation connection position 313a and a second mating connection position 313b are provided on the second support arm 313.

[0033] The number of the torsion springs 33 is the same as the number of the support arms. That is, torsion springs 33 are respectively installed on the first mating connection position 312b and the second mating connection position 313b to generate a supporting force on the support plate 31.

[0034] The linkage 32 includes a connecting plate 321, a first linkage arm and a second linkage arm. The first linkage arm and the second linkage arm are integrally connected through the connecting plate 321.

[0035] Among them, the first linkage arm includes a first connecting rod 322a, a first support arm connecting seat 322b and a first limiting convex block 322c respectively arranged at both ends of the first connecting rod 322a. The first support arm connecting seat 322b protrudes from the upper working surface of the first connecting rod 322a, and the first limiting convex block 322c protrudes from the lower working surface of the second connecting rod 323a. A first rotation mounting position and a first fitting mounting position are arranged on the first support arm connecting seat 322b; the structure of the second linkage arm is symmetrical to that of the first linkage arm, including a second connecting rod 323a, a second support arm connecting seat 323b and a second limiting convex block 323c respectively arranged at both ends of the second connecting rod 323a. Second rotation mounting positions and second fitting mounting positions are respectively arranged on the second support arm connecting seat 323b. The second support arm connecting seat 323b protrudes from the upper working surface of the second connecting rod 323a, and the second limiting convex block 323c protrudes from the lower working surface of the second connecting rod 323a.

[0036] The linkage 32 is arranged on the outer bottom surface of the cup holder 23. The first support arm connecting seat 322b and the second support arm connecting seat 323b pass through the mounting holes reserved at the bottom of the cup holder 23 and protrude from the inner bottom surface of the cup holder 23, while the first limiting convex block 322c and the second limiting convex block 323c protrude from the sliding grooves 11 at the bottom of the cup holder housing 1. When the linkage 32 is in the working state, the first limiting convex block 322c and the second limiting convex block 323c are stuck at the notch end near the opening end.

[0037] The first rotation connection position 312a and the first fitting connection position 312b are respectively matched with the first rotation mounting position and the first fitting mounting position, and the second rotation connection position 313a and the second fitting connection position 313b are respectively matched with the second rotation mounting position and the second fitting mounting position to realize the rotation connection between the support plate 31 and the linkage 32. At the same time, the support plate 31 can have a vertical supporting force.

[0038] The linkage plate 4 includes a bearing surface 41 arranged along one end of the linkage plate and cooperating with the support surface. A first sliding guide portion and a second sliding guide portion 42 are respectively arranged on both sides of the same end of the bearing surface 41. First rotation connection portions 43 and second rotation connection portions 44 are respectively arranged on both sides of the other end of the linkage plate 4. A third rotation connection portion 45 is arranged at the end of the linkage plate between the first rotation connection portion 43 and the second rotation connection portion 44.

[0039] Among them, the first rotating connection part 43, the second rotating connection part 44, and the third rotating connection part 45 are used to connect with the cup holder panel 21. The rotating connection method is beneficial for storage. When in the unfolded state, since the support plate 31 can have a vertical supporting force, the supporting surface 41 on the linkage plate 4 leans against the supporting surface 311 of the support plate 31. In the unfolded state, the cup holder panel 21 is supported by both the rotating support structure 22 and the cup holder panel extension end, that is, the end far from the cup holder housing, can be supported by the linkage bracket composed of the support frame assembly 3 and the linkage plate 4. In this way, the symmetrical support method, that is, the support of four points of the cup holder panel 21, ensures its working stability in the unfolded state, the cup holder panel 21 is not easily deformed, the support is more stable, and the customer experience is improved.

[0040] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the drawings are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The object of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and described in the embodiments. Without departing from the said principles, the embodiments of the present invention can have any deformation or modification.
