[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a vehicle-mounted foldable spare tire cover and makes the following embodiments:

[0031] In some embodiments, a vehicle-mounted folding spare tire cover includes a table top 100 and a folding support 200. The table top 100 is provided with a groove 110 and a handle groove 120 for easy lifting by the user. The folding support 200 can be opened to support the table top 100 when the table top 100 is in use, and can be folded to the back of the table top 100 when stored for easy storage.

[0032] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A groove 110 is provided on the front edge of the table top 100 , and the groove 110 is concave toward the rear side of the table top 100 . A handle groove 120 is provided at the bottom of the table top 100 , and the handle groove 120 and the groove 110 are spaced apart from each other in front and back.

[0033] When extracting the table top 100, the groove 110 and the handle groove 120 allow the user to conveniently carry or pull up the cover, providing a comfortable gripping point.

[0034] The bottom and top of groove 110 adopt an arc-shaped transition. This detail not only enhances the aesthetics, but more importantly, it ensures a good fit with the user's hand when holding it. Similarly, the top of handle groove 120 also adopts an arc-shaped transition design, making the contact surface of the grip a comfortable curved surface. This curved surface design, whether for groove 110 or handle groove 120, greatly improves the comfort of grip. During transportation or operation, the user's hand can naturally fit on the curved surface, reducing friction and discomfort with hard edges, thereby ensuring a smoother and easier operation experience. More importantly, this humanized detail treatment is not just for aesthetics or comfort, it also effectively reduces the burden on the user during transportation. By optimizing the contact area and angle between the hand and the groove and handle groove, we have reduced the pressure on the hand's force point, making the transportation process more labor-saving and less fatigue-prone.

[0035] In summary, the curved transition between groove 110 and handle slot 120 not only demonstrates our meticulous attention to detail, but also provides users with unprecedented convenience and enjoyment by enhancing grip comfort and reducing the burden of carrying. This people-oriented design philosophy is a vivid reflection of our continuous pursuit of excellence and commitment to improving user experience.

[0036] The table top 100 is an integrated design, and the handle groove 120 is molded on the back outer surface of the table top 100. The groove 110 design cleverly eliminates the traditional external handle, achieving a more compact and beautiful appearance. This can bring a series of significant benefits:

[0037] 1. Improved structural strength: The molded handle groove 120 is integrally formed with the material, which is more solid and durable than additional handles.

[0038] 2. Beautiful design: The molded handle groove 120 can smoothly transition with the product surface, achieving seamless integration, providing a cleaner and smoother appearance design that conforms to modern aesthetics.

[0039] 3. Ease of use: The handle groove 120 formed directly on the material provides the user with a more ergonomic grip point. After replacing the handle, the user is more convenient and comfortable when lifting or moving the table top 100.

[0040] 4. Cleaning and maintenance: The molded handle groove 120 has no additional protruding parts, so it is easier to clean and has lower maintenance costs. It is especially suitable for environments with high hygiene requirements.

[0041] 5. Cost-effectiveness: Although the initial mold cost of compression molding may be higher, its high production efficiency and material utilization can reduce production costs in the long run.

[0042] 6. Material consistency: Since the handle groove 120 is part of the material, there will be no material inconsistency problem that may exist in the handle, ensuring the integrity and strength of the product.

[0043] 7. Reduce failure points: The use of molded handle groove 120 eliminates additional failure points that may be caused by the handle, such as the handle falling off or being damaged, thereby improving product reliability.

[0044] In summary, the design of using the molded handle groove 120 instead of the handle not only improves the aesthetics and practicality of the product, but also helps to improve the overall quality and service life of the product.

[0045] Furthermore, the introduction of the groove 110 and handle groove 120 not only optimizes the user's grip, but also enhances operational convenience and safety. The groove 110 provides an additional grip point, making it easier to lift or move the tabletop 100. The handle groove 120 replaces the traditional drawstring design, reducing operational difficulties caused by improper drawstring adjustment and enhancing the overall stability and reliability of the structure.

[0046] The folding support member 200 includes four supporting vertical rods 210 and four rotating seats 220 respectively arranged corresponding to the supporting vertical rods 210. The two ends of the supporting vertical rods 210 are respectively connected ends and supporting ends. The connecting ends are rotatably connected to the rotating seats 220. The rotating seats 220 are fixed to the back of the table top 100 by screws.

[0047] Reference Figure 3 The rotating seat 220 is provided with a limiting groove 221, and the two side walls of the limiting groove 221 are provided with a connecting shaft 222. The connecting end is rotatably arranged on the connecting shaft 222. The limiting groove 221 is provided with an avoidance opening 224 and a limiting plate 223 arranged at intervals. When the support vertical rod 210 is in a folded state, the connecting end extends into the limiting groove 221 from the avoidance opening 224. When the support vertical rod 210 is in an expanded state, the side of the support vertical rod 210 abuts against the limiting plate 223 to maintain stability.

[0048] Furthermore, four extension rods 230 are clamped at the bottom of the table top 100, the supporting end is provided with an internal thread, one end of the extension rod 230 is provided with an external thread, the other end of the extension rod 230 is provided with a foot cover to play an anti-slip role, the supporting end is provided with an internal thread, and the extension rod 230 is threadedly connected to the supporting end. In other embodiments, the supporting end is provided with an external thread, one end of the extension rod 230 is provided with a connecting groove, and the connecting groove is provided with an internal thread. Threaded connection is easy to install and disassemble. In some other implementations, bolt connection can also be used, and the connection is achieved by the cooperation of bolts and nuts, which usually require gaskets to increase sealing and stability. When it is necessary to raise the bottom of the table top 100, the extension rod 230 can be set at the bottom of the supporting end to play the role of raising the table mat, which is more convenient to use.

[0049] Four first clamping seats 130 are provided at the bottom of the table top 100, and the first clamping seats 130 are provided with first clamping grooves. The four first clamping seats 130 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the bottom of the table top 100, and the extension rod 230 is clamped in the first clamping groove. When the extension rod 230 is not in use, the extension rod 230 is clamped at the bottom of the table top 100, which is convenient for storing the extension rod 230 and avoiding the loss of the extension rod 230.

[0050] In order to make the support assembly more solid, a support frame 240 extending left and right is connected between two adjacent support vertical rods 210. There are two support frames 240, and the two support frames 240 are arranged at intervals up and down. The outer surface of the support frame 240 is movably connected to the middle support rod 260, and the other end of the middle support rod 260 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the table top 100. When the support frame 240 is expanded outward, the middle support rod 260 is expanded accordingly.

[0051] A crossbar support rod 250 is clamped to the bottom of the table top 100 , and clamping parts 251 that are clamped to the support frame 240 are provided at both ends of the crossbar support rod 250 to further strengthen the support structure.

[0052] Among them, reference Figure 4 The clamp 251 is provided with an active slot 252 extending perpendicular to the cross bar support rod 250. The inner side wall of the active slot 252 is an arc-shaped surface. When supporting, the support frame 240 is sleeved in the active slot 252, and the support rod is extended forward and backward.

[0053] A second clip-on seat 140 is provided at the bottom of the table top 100. The second clip-on seat 140 is provided with a second clip-on groove. The crossbar support rod 250 is clipped into the second clip-on groove and can be easily stored at the bottom of the table top when not needed, thus avoiding taking up extra space and preventing the crossbar support rod 250 from being lost. When not in use, the crossbar support rod 250 can be securely clipped into the slot, which is both safe and concealed. Users no longer have to worry about losing the support rod. The second clip-on seat 140 is fixed to the bottom of the table top 100 by screws. The design of the second clip-on seat 140 and its second clip-on groove at the bottom of the table top 100 not only improves the practicality and convenience of the table, but also effectively prevents the loss of the crossbar support rod 250 through the clip-on method, bringing a more comfortable and secure user experience to users.

[0054] In some other embodiments, a connecting reinforcement rod is provided at the bottom of two adjacent supporting vertical rods 210, which can also serve as other reinforcement support.

[0055] Working principle: When in use, the user takes out the table top 100 from the trunk through the groove 110, rotates the vertical rod so that the supporting vertical rod 210 drives the support frame 240 to move outward, and when it is rotated to a certain angle, rotates the middle support rod 260 so that the middle support rod 260 is supported on the inner surface of the support frame 240, takes out the cross bar support rod 250, and supports the cross bar support rod 250 between the two groups of support frames 240. When it is necessary to raise the table top 100, take out the extension rod 230, and rotate the connecting piece at one end of the extension rod 230 to the bottom of the middle support rod 260 to achieve the increase of the table top 100.

[0056] The above specifically describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the invention is not limited to the embodiments.
