[0039] Reference below Figures 1-4 A hidden vehicle door handle 100 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention is described.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, a concealed vehicle door handle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a main body 10, a door handle 20, and a flip mechanism 30. The main body 10 is rotatably mounted and has a rotation axis L. The door handle 20 is mounted on the main body 10. The flip mechanism 30 is connected to the vehicle door to support the rotation of the main body 10. The flip mechanism 30 includes an elastic member 313, which is configured to apply a compressive force to the main body 10 along the rotation axis L.

[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the main body 10 has a rotatable feature and rotates around the rotation axis L. This design allows the main body 10 to be rotated out from the door surface when needed for user operation, and can be hidden inside the door when not needed to maintain the consistency of the door.

[0042] The door handle 20 is the part that the user directly operates and is provided on the main body 10. When the main body 10 is in a rotating operation, the door handle 20 also rotates. The door handle 20 has an internal state and an external state. Figure 1-Figure 2 , when the door handle 20 is switched from the hidden state to the external state, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the door handle 20 is exposed towards the user, and the user can easily open the car door by operating the door handle 20. This arrangement can improve the flexibility of the door handle 20 and ensure ease of use.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the flip mechanism 30 connects the vehicle door and the main body 10, supporting the rotation of the main body 10 and providing a certain mechanical force. The flip mechanism 30 includes an elastic member 313, which is arranged along the rotation axis L and provides a continuous pressing force to the main body 10.

[0044] The elastic member 313 can be a spring or other elastic element with a restoring force. The compressive force generated by the elastic member 313 ensures that the main member 10 remains stably in a specific position when not subjected to external forces, such as when concealed within a vehicle door. When the user wishes to operate the door handle, external force is applied to overcome the compressive force of the elastic member 313, causing the main member 10 to rotate from the concealed position to the operable position.

[0045] By combining the main body 10 , the door handle 20 and the flip mechanism 30 , the hidden door handle 100 of the embodiment of the present invention can be switched between an internally concealed state and an externally used state, and has a certain degree of flexibility.

[0046] When the vehicle is parked daily, the hidden door handle 100 is in a hidden state to avoid accumulation of dust or contamination (rain, ice and snow, etc.), ensuring that the door handle 20 is clean when the user uses it to open the door.

[0047] During daily driving of the vehicle, the door handle 20 is in a hidden state, which can maintain the consistency of the door appearance, reduce the wind resistance of the vehicle, and reduce the energy consumed by the vehicle to overcome the wind resistance, which helps to improve the energy utilization rate of the vehicle.

[0048] When the door handle 20 is needed, the door handle 20 is rotated to the external use state, which is both intuitive and convenient, and provides the user with a quick and convenient operating experience.

[0049] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the flip mechanism 30 includes a rotating portion 311, a door connecting portion 316, and a supporting portion 312. The rotating portion 311 is connected to the main body 10 and rotates synchronously with the main body 10, and the door connecting portion 316 is used to connect to the door.

[0050] The support portion 312 is provided between the rotating portion 311 and the vehicle door connecting portion 316 . The support portion 312 is located at an end of the rotating portion 311 away from the door handle 20 . The rotating portion 311 is rotatably connected to the support portion 312 .

[0051] Specifically, the rotating portion 311 and the supporting portion 312 are disposed along the rotation axis L.

[0052] The elastic member 313 has one end connected to the support portion 312 and the other end connected to the door connection portion 316 , and applies a pressing force to the support portion 312 toward the rotating portion 311 , thereby pressing the support portion 312 toward the rotating portion 311 .

[0053] For example, one end of the elastic member 313 abuts against the end surface of the support portion 312, while the other end abuts against the surface of the door connecting portion 316 facing the support portion 312. For example, the door connecting portion 316 is a connecting plate provided on the vehicle door, and the other end of the elastic member 313 abuts against the connecting plate, thereby enabling the vehicle door to support the rotating portion 311.

[0054] The rotating portion 311 and the supporting portion 312 are arranged along the rotation axis L, which can ensure that the main body 10 rotates steadily and smoothly, thereby enhancing the stability of the door handle 20.

[0055] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4As shown, the flip mechanism 30 further includes a guide member 314 connected to the door connection portion 316. The guide member 314 cooperates with the support portion 312, which is movably connected to the guide member 314 along the rotation axis of the main body 10. The guide member 314 limits the rotation of the support portion 312 and guides the support portion 312 to move along the rotation axis L. The guide member 314 is used to ensure the stability and accuracy of the support portion 312 during rotation. The guide member 314 forms a precise guiding fit with the support portion 312, which not only limits the rotation of the support portion 312 but also guides the support portion 312 to move along the predetermined rotation axis L.

[0056] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 As shown, a gear matching structure 315 is provided between the rotating portion 311 and the supporting portion 312 , and the gear matching structure 315 is arranged around the rotation axis L.

[0057] This structure enhances the precision and stability of the main member 10 during rotation. The tooth-engaging structure 315 allows the door handle to precisely rotate along a predetermined path when deployed or concealed, effectively preventing deviation or shaking caused by external forces. This design not only ensures high-precision positioning of the main member 10 during rotation, but also ensures stable rotation through the tight meshing of the teeth, preventing the main member 10 from becoming loose. Furthermore, the tooth-engaging structure 315 is capable of withstanding certain external impacts, significantly enhancing the durability and reliability of the concealed door handle 100.

[0058] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 As shown, the tooth matching structure 315 includes a first ratchet ring 3151 and a second ratchet ring 3152. The first ratchet ring 3151 is provided at the end of the rotating portion 311 facing the support portion 312, and the second ratchet ring 3152 is provided at the end of the support portion 312 facing the rotating portion 311. The second ratchet ring 3152 is engaged with the first ratchet ring 3151 to limit the rotating portion 311 to unidirectional rotation.

[0059] When the rotating portion 311 rotates in a certain direction, the teeth of the first ratchet ring 3151 smoothly engage with the teeth of the second ratchet ring 3152, achieving smooth rotation. However, when rotating in the opposite direction, due to the characteristics of the ratchet teeth, the teeth of the first ratchet ring 3151 are blocked by the teeth of the second ratchet ring 3152, thereby preventing the rotating portion 311 from rotating. This design ensures that the rotating portion 311 can only rotate in the predetermined direction, increasing the stability of the flip mechanism 30.

[0060] Furthermore, the meshing structure of the ratchet ring ensures a certain degree of precision and stability during rotation of the rotating portion 311. The tight fit between the teeth reduces friction and vibration during rotation, improving the overall performance of the flip mechanism 30. The use of the tooth-matching structure 315 enhances the stability and reliability of the concealed door handle 100.

[0061] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the guide member 314 includes a guide sleeve 3141. The support portion 312 is disposed within the guide sleeve 3141. A guide groove 3121 is defined on one of the guide sleeve 3141 and the support portion 312. A guide rib 3142 is defined on the other of the guide sleeve 3141 and the support portion 312 to engage with the guide groove 3121. The guide groove 3121 extends along the rotation axis L.

[0062] The guide sleeve 3141 is used to precisely guide and position the movement of the support portion 312. The support portion 312 is positioned within the guide sleeve 3141 to ensure stable sliding. To enhance the relative stability of the support portion 312 and the guide sleeve 3141, one of the guide sleeve 3141 and the support portion 312 is provided with a guide groove 3121, while the other is provided with a guide rib 3142 that cooperates with the guide groove 3121.

[0063] The guide groove 3121 extends along the rotation axis L of the support portion 312 , which means that the guide groove 3121 can provide continuous guidance and positioning for the support portion 312 .

[0064] In some embodiments, guide ribs 3142 are provided on the inner sidewall of the guide sleeve 3141, and guide grooves 3121 are provided on the outer sidewall of the support portion 312. This arrangement allows the support portion 312 to slide easily into the guide sleeve 3141. The guide ribs 3142 ensure that the support portion 312 remains stable within the guide sleeve 3141, preventing it from shifting or shaking during use. This structure is simple and easy to install and maintain, improving the reliability and maintainability of the concealed door handle 100.

[0065] In some optional embodiments, the size and shape of the outer periphery of the support portion 312 are adapted to the size and shape of the inner periphery of the guide sleeve 3141. This not only improves the stability of the support portion 312 within the guide sleeve 3141, but also effectively prevents the intrusion of foreign matter, keeps the gap between the two clean, and thus improves the performance of the concealed door handle 100.

[0066] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4As shown, the elastic member 313 is a spring and is located within the guide sleeve 3141. The two ends of the spring abut against the support portion 312 and the door connection portion 316, respectively. This design not only ensures the stability of the spring during operation but also continuously provides a constant compressive force to the support portion 312. This compressive force is effectively transmitted to the rotating portion 311 through the support portion 312, thereby enhancing the stability of the rotating portion 311 and preventing potential shaking during rotation. This helps improve the overall performance of the door handle.

[0067] In some optional embodiments, the guide sleeve 3141 is provided with a mounting opening adapted for the elastic member 313, with at least a portion of the elastic member 313 disposed within the mounting opening. Providing the mounting opening ensures that the elastic member 313, such as a spring, can be compressed or extended along a predetermined path (e.g., the rotation axis L) without deflection.

[0068] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the rotating portion 311 and the supporting portion 312 are coaxially arranged tubes. The coaxial arrangement ensures that the rotating portion 311 can remain stable during the rotation process, reducing shaking and instability caused by axis deviation or misalignment.

[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the flip mechanism 30 includes: a first flip assembly 31 and a second flip assembly 32 , the first flip assembly 31 and the second flip assembly 32 are spaced apart and coaxially arranged along the rotation axis L, and at least one of the first flip assembly 31 and the second flip assembly 32 includes an elastic member 313 .

[0070] The first flip assembly 31 and the second flip assembly 32 are respectively disposed at two ends of the main body 10 and are respectively connected to the door handle 20 for supporting the rotation of the door handle 20 .

[0071] To open the vehicle door, the user activates the flip mechanism 30, triggering the linkage between the first flip assembly 31 and the second flip assembly 32. As the main body 10 rotates, the door handle 20 gradually transitions from a recessed position to an external position. The first and second flip assemblies 31, 32 ensure smooth and stable rotation of the door handle 20, while also providing the necessary clamping force to ensure the handle remains in its intended position.

[0072] Optionally, one of the first flip assembly 31 or the second flip assembly 32 is provided with an elastic member 313 to achieve a stable flipping effect of the flip mechanism 30 .

[0073] In some optional embodiments, elastic members 313 are provided in both the first flip assembly 31 and the second flip assembly 32. The provision of two elastic members 313 improves the stability of the flip mechanism 30 at a predetermined angle and effectively reduces positional deviation caused by vibration or external force, thereby improving the stability of the flip mechanism 30.

[0074] In some Figure 1 、 Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the first flip assembly 31 has a first central hole 310 disposed along the rotation axis L for mounting the outer cable of the door handle 20. The second flip assembly 32 has a second central hole 320 disposed along the rotation axis L. The concealed door handle 100 further includes a drive assembly, the drive shaft of which engages in the second central hole 320.

[0075] The external cable connects the door handle 20 to the vehicle's internal locking mechanism. It transmits the operating force generated by the user's use of the door handle 20 to the locking mechanism, unlocking the door. The first center hole 310 in the first flip assembly 31 ensures that the external cable transmits the operating force during the door opening process.

[0076] Optionally, the first center hole 310 matches the outer cable, thereby ensuring that they can fit tightly together, reducing the possibility of loosening or misalignment, and further improving the reliability of the door opening operation.

[0077] like Figure 1 As shown, the second flip assembly 32 has a second central hole 320 disposed along the rotation axis L, which is intended to cooperate with the drive assembly of the concealed door handle 100. The drive assembly is used to control the flipping of the door handle, and the cooperation between its drive shaft and the second central hole 320 ensures the accuracy and stability of the action.

[0078] The drive assembly closely mates with the second center hole 320 via the drive shaft, ensuring accurate and stable operation. When the drive assembly is activated, the drive shaft rotates within the second center hole 320, driving the second flip assembly 32 and the door handle 20 to flip, achieving a switch between the concealed state and the external state.

[0079] In some embodiments, as Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the first flip assembly 31 includes an elastic member 313, and the second flip assembly 32 includes: a first sleeve 321 and a second sleeve 322, the first sleeve 321 is used to connect to the vehicle door, one end of the second sleeve 322 is connected to the main body 10, and the other end of the second sleeve 322 is sleeved on the inner side or outer side of the first sleeve 321.

[0080] The first sleeve 321 is connected to the vehicle door and serves as a fixed fulcrum, ensuring stable support for the door handle 20 during its rotation. One end of the second sleeve 322 is connected to the main body 10, while the other end fits inside or outside the first sleeve 321. This arrangement allows the second flip assembly 32 to rotate around the first sleeve 321, achieving the flipping motion of the door handle 20.

[0081] When the drive assembly is activated, it drives the second sleeve 322 to rotate relative to the first sleeve 321, thereby causing the door handle 20 connected to the second sleeve 322 to flip. Due to the fixed connection between the first sleeve 321 and the vehicle door and the connection between the second sleeve 322 and the main body 10, the entire flipping process can be maintained smoothly and accurately.

[0082] At the same time, due to the presence of the elastic member 313, the main body 10 is continuously subjected to axial compression force, thereby helping the door handle 20 to quickly stabilize at the current position.

[0083] According to the embodiment of the second aspect of the present utility model, the vehicle includes a vehicle door and a hidden door handle 100. A receiving groove is provided on the vehicle door, and the receiving groove forms an opening on the outer surface of the vehicle door. The hidden door handle 100 is the hidden door handle 100 of the embodiment of the first aspect of the present application. The main body 10 is connected to the vehicle door through a flip mechanism 30. The hidden door handle 100 has a switchable internal hidden state and external use state. In the internal hidden state, the main body 10 is fitted at the opening to block the receiving groove, and the door opening handle 20 is located in the receiving groove. In the external use state, the main body 10 is rotated into the receiving groove to expose the door opening handle 20.

[0084] In the above technical solution, the receiving groove forms an opening on the outer surface of the vehicle door. The size and shape of the opening match the main body 10 of the hidden door handle 100 to ensure that the main body 10 can be perfectly embedded therein when the door handle is not needed.

[0085] The hidden door handle 100 adopts the design of the first embodiment of the present application, and its main body 10 is connected to the door through a flip mechanism 30. This flip mechanism 30 allows the door handle to be switched from a hidden state to an external state when needed.

[0086] In the recessed state, the main body 10 fits within the opening of the receiving groove, completely blocking the groove and making the door surface appear uniform. At the same time, the door handle 20 is completely hidden within the receiving groove, preventing it from generating wind resistance during vehicle operation.

[0087] To open the vehicle door, the user simply presses or pulls a portion of the concealed door handle 100, such as a button or groove, to activate the drive assembly, driving the second flip assembly 32 and the door handle 20 to flip. As the main body 10 rotates, it gradually moves into the receiving groove, revealing the door handle 20. The user can then grasp and pull the door handle 20 to open the vehicle door.

[0088] Reference below Figure 1 - Figure 4 The hidden door handle 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail with reference to a specific embodiment. It is worth noting that the following description is merely an exemplary description and does not specifically limit the present invention.
