[0034] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, a hidden opening device for a central armrest box of a car includes a cover plate 1, a drive assembly 2 and an opening and closing assembly 3. The drive assembly 2 and the opening and closing assembly 3 are both arranged on the cover plate 1. The opening and closing assembly 3 can cover the cover plate 1 and the drive assembly 2. The opening and closing assembly 3 can cover a partial area of ​​the plate 1. When the opening and closing assembly 3 is closed, only a small part of the drive assembly 2 is exposed, and an opening 10 is provided on the cover plate 1.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a base plate 6 is provided on the cover plate 1, a cover shell 7 is provided on the base plate 6, the drive assembly 2 includes a pressing rod 21, a conversion block 22, a first elastic member 23 and a positioning rod 24, the conversion block 22 is rotatably provided on the base plate 6, the pressing rod 21 and the positioning rod 24 are rotatably connected on both sides of the conversion block 22, the conversion block 22 is sleeved on the first elastic member 23, the first elastic member 23 is provided in a manner to hinder the retraction of the positioning rod 24, and the first elastic member 23 is a spring.

[0037] The pressing rod 21 and the positioning rod 24 extend to the outer edge of the bottom plate 6. When the outer end of the pressing rod 21 is pressed by hand, the force applied is greater than the force of the first elastic member 23 that prevents the positioning rod 24 from retracting. The pressing rod 21 pushes the conversion block 22 to rotate, and the conversion block 22 drives the positioning rod 24 to retract. When the person releases the pressing rod 21, under the action of the first elastic member 23, the conversion block 22 drives the positioning rod 24 to return to its original position.

[0038] The opening and closing assembly 3 includes an opening and closing plate 31 and a second elastic member 32. The opening and closing plate 31 is rotatably arranged at the opening 10. The second elastic member 32 is arranged in a manner to hinder the closing and rotation of the opening and closing plate 31. A positioning groove 33 is provided on the opening and closing plate 31. The positioning rod 24 has two states of moving away from and entering the positioning groove 33. When the opening 10 needs to be closed, the opening and closing plate 31 is flipped over until the opening and closing plate 31 is flat on the upper surface of the opening 10, and the positioning rod 24 extends above the opening 10. At this time, the positioning rod 24 is clamped in the positioning groove 33. When the opening 10 needs to be opened, the outer end of the pressing rod 21 is pressed, the positioning rod 24 retracts, and the positioning rod 24 moves away from the positioning groove 33. Under the action of the second elastic member 32, the opening and closing plate 31 begins to flip back and reset.

[0039] A positioning block 34 is provided at the bottom of the opening and closing plate 31, and the positioning groove 33 is located on the positioning block 34. The cover shell 7 covers the bottom plate 6, so that the pressing rod 21, the conversion block 22, the first elastic member 23 and the positioning rod 24 are all covered by the cover shell 7. The driving assembly 2 is in the covering area of ​​the opening and closing plate 31, that is, when the opening and closing plate 31 is normally closed, the opening and closing plate 31 not only closes the opening 10, but also covers the cover shell 7, so that the outer end of the pressing rod 21 can be pressed.

[0040] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the bottom plate 6 has a recessed area 27 , and the conversion block 22 is rotatably disposed in the recessed area 27 , so that the pressing rod 21 , the conversion block 22 , the first elastic member 23 and the positioning rod 24 are all disposed in the recessed area 27 .

[0041] A positioning column 28 is provided in the recessed area 27 , and a hollow column 20 is provided on the conversion block 22 . The hollow column 20 has a through hole 9 , and the positioning column 28 is sleeved in the through hole 9 , so that the conversion block 22 rotates with the hollow column 20 as the center.

[0042] The first elastic member 23 is sleeved on the hollow column 20, and a limiting wall 29 is provided in the recessed area 27. The first elastic member 23 has a first limiting wire 231 and a second limiting wire 232 at both ends respectively. The first limiting wire 231 is clamped on the conversion block 22, and the second limiting wire 232 is arranged in contact with the limiting wall 29. The conversion block 22 drives the first elastic member 23 to rotate, and the first limiting wire 231 limits the rotation of the conversion block 22. The limiting wall 29 blocks the rotation of the second limiting wire 232. Under the reaction force of the first limiting wire 231 and the second limiting wire 232, the conversion block 22 drives the positioning rod 24 and the pressing rod 21 to reset, and the opening and closing plate 31 covers the opening 10. The positioning rod 24 is clamped in the positioning groove 33. When the positioning rod 24 is pressed, the positioning rod 24 is separated from the positioning groove 33, and the opening and closing plate 31 opens the opening 10.

[0043] A limiting groove 25 is provided on the bottom plate 6 , and the positioning rod 24 is slidably provided in the limiting groove 25 . The space of the limiting groove 25 is large enough, and the sliding path of the positioning rod 24 is not a straight line, but the limiting groove 25 will not hinder the movement of the positioning rod 24 .

[0044] The positioning rod 24 has a limiting piece 241, and the bottom periphery of the limiting groove 25 is located on the moving path of the limiting piece 241. In this way, when the limiting piece 241 is in the recessed area 27, the limiting piece 241 will be blocked by the wall of the recessed area 27, and the limiting piece 241 will not slide out of the limiting groove 25.

[0045] There are two drive assemblies 2, and a first guide groove 41 and a second guide groove 42 are provided in the recessed area 27. The two pressing rods 21 are slidably provided in the first guide groove 41 and the second guide groove 42 respectively. The two drive assemblies 2 are symmetrically arranged, and the distance between the two pressing rods 21 is smaller than the distance between the two positioning rods 24. The two pressing rods 21 are located between the two conversion blocks 22.

[0046] A guide cylinder 4 is provided between the first guide groove 41 and the second guide groove 42, and a pressing block 5 is provided at the outer end of the two pressing rods 21. The outer ends of the two pressing rods 21 are hinged to the pressing block 5, and the two pressing rods 21 are arranged side by side. The outer end of the pressing block 5 is flush with the outer wall surface of the bottom plate 6, and a guide rod 26 is provided on the pressing block 5. The guide rod 26 is located between the two pressing rods 21 and extends into the guide cylinder 4. When the opening and closing plate 31 covers the opening 10, the guide rod 26 is still located in the guide cylinder 4. When the pressing block 5 is pressed, the guide rod 26 continues to extend into the inside of the guide cylinder 4, so that the two pressing rods 21 will not be offset during movement.

[0047] The pressing block 5 is provided with a limit block 51 , and an elastic piece 52 is provided on the limit block 51 . The wall around the recessed area 27 blocks the elastic piece 52 , so that the pressing block 5 also has a buffering effect when it retracts.

[0048] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, two opening and closing components 3 are symmetrically arranged, so there are two driving components 2 symmetrically arranged.

[0049] A sinking platform 11 is provided on the cover plate 1, and the opening 10 is provided in the sinking platform 11. A first support 13 and a second support 14 are provided on the cover plate 1. A first rotating rod 311 and a second rotating rod 312 are provided on the opening and closing plate 31. A hollow rod 12 with a hollow core is provided on the first support 13. The first rotating rod 311 is rotatably provided in the hollow rod 12, and the second rotating rod 312 is rotatably provided on the second support 14. The second elastic member 32 is sleeved on the hollow rod 12. The second elastic member 32 is a spring. The second elastic member 32 prevents the opening and closing plate 31 from closing the opening 10. After the positioning rod 24 is away from the positioning groove 33, the second elastic member 32 drives the opening and closing plate 31 to flip, and the opening and closing plate 31 opens the opening 10.

[0050] A damper 8 is provided on the first rotating rod 311, and the damper 8 plays a buffering role. The damper 8 prevents the opening and closing plate 31 from rotating too quickly. The second elastic member 32 has a first obstruction wire 321 and a second obstruction wire 322 at both ends. The first obstruction wire 321 is fixed on the first support 13, and the second obstruction wire 322 is located on the rotation path of the opening and closing plate 31. When the opening and closing plate 31 rotates to close the opening 10, the first obstruction wire 321 and the second obstruction wire 322 both hinder the rotation of the opening and closing plate 31. When the opening and closing plate 31 is to open the opening 10, the first obstruction wire 321 and the second obstruction wire 322 help the opening and closing plate 31 to reverse and reset.

[0051] A protective cover 30 is also provided on the bottom surface of the opening and closing plate 31, which wraps the damper 8, the second elastic member 32, the first rotating rod 311, the second rotating rod 312 and the hollow rod 12. When the two opening and closing plates 31 close the opening 10 at the same time, they will not collide with each other. The contact parts of the two opening and closing plates 31 are elastic, so that the opening 10 is completely closed.

[0052] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable people familiar with this technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
