DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] Here, the technical solutions in the embodiments (or "implementations") of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0031] If there are terms related to directional indications or positional relationships in the embodiments of this application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, width, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement, etc. between the components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings); if the specific posture changes, the directional indication or positional relationship will also change accordingly. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" in the embodiments of this application are only used for the purpose of convenience of description and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the auxiliary instrument panel of the present application includes an auxiliary instrument panel main body 1 and a front rotating portion 2. The front rotating portion 2 is rotatably connected to the auxiliary instrument panel main body 1 so that the front rotating portion 2 protrudes out of the auxiliary instrument panel main body 1 or rotates into the auxiliary instrument panel main body 1. Specifically, the auxiliary instrument panel includes an expanded state and a retracted state. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the expanded state, part of the front rotating portion 2 protrudes forward from the auxiliary instrument panel main body 1 along the front-to-back direction of the auxiliary instrument panel. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the retracted state, the front rotating portion 2 rotates into the auxiliary instrument panel main body 1.

[0033] With this arrangement, the auxiliary instrument panel is rotatably connected to the auxiliary instrument panel body via the forward swivel portion, allowing the forward swivel portion to protrude forward from the auxiliary instrument panel body and then swivel into the auxiliary instrument panel body, improving the convenience of using the auxiliary instrument panel. Furthermore, when the forward swivel portion is swung into the auxiliary instrument panel body, the auxiliary instrument panel can be separated from the vehicle's main instrument panel, facilitating lateral movement of the driver or passenger to the other side of the vehicle, enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, when the forward swivel portion is swung into the auxiliary instrument panel body, the space between the auxiliary instrument panel and the vehicle's main instrument panel is increased, preventing bumps and dirt on the auxiliary instrument panel during movement.

[0034] The auxiliary instrument panel main body 1 and the front rotating part 2 can both be used for storage, arrangement of various buttons and charging modules and other equipment, and the front rotating part 2 is rotatably arranged on the auxiliary instrument panel main body 1, so that the operation is more convenient when the auxiliary instrument panel is converted to the expanded state or the retracted state, and more space is saved when the auxiliary instrument panel is converted to the retracted state.

[0035] Further integration Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments, the auxiliary instrument panel body 1 includes a first limiting portion 11, a second limiting portion 12, a second engaging portion 13, a first rotating portion 14, a first side wall 15, a second side wall 16, and an accommodating cavity 17. The first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 12 are provided on the inner wall of the auxiliary instrument panel body 1, and the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 12 are both used to limit the position of the front rotating portion 2. Specifically, when the auxiliary instrument panel is in the expanded state, the front rotating portion 2 contacts the first limiting portion 11. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the retracted state, the front rotating portion 2 contacts the second limiting portion 12.

[0036] Along the height direction of the auxiliary instrument panel, the first limiting portion 11 is located above the second limiting portion 12. The first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 12 are preferably located on the same side wall of the auxiliary instrument panel body 1, that is, the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 12 are located on the first side wall 15 or the second side wall 16. To ensure greater stability when the front rotating portion 2 is limited, multiple first limiting portions 11 and multiple second limiting portions 12 are provided, and each is located on the first side wall 15 and the second side wall 16, respectively. Multiple first limiting portions 11 are arranged opposite each other, and multiple second limiting portions 12 are arranged opposite each other.

[0037] The second engaging portion 13 is provided on the inner wall of the auxiliary instrument panel body 1. To reduce manufacturing costs, the second engaging portion 13 is only provided on the first side wall 15 or the second side wall 16. When the auxiliary instrument panel is retracted, the front rotating portion 2 engages with the second engaging portion 13. To ensure a more stable engagement of the front rotating portion 2 when the auxiliary instrument panel is retracted, at least two second engaging portions 13 are provided, one on the first side wall 15 and one on the second side wall 16.

[0038] A first rotating portion 14 is provided on a first side wall 15 and a second side wall 16. The front rotating portion 2 cooperates with the first rotating portion 14 to allow the front rotating portion 2 to rotate relative to the auxiliary instrument panel body 1. The first side wall 15 and the second side wall 16 are disposed opposite each other, and a receiving cavity 17 is located between the first side wall 15 and the second side wall 16. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the retracted state, the front rotating portion 2 is located within the receiving cavity 17.

[0039] Further integration Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the front rotating portion 2 includes a first engaging portion 21, a second rotating portion 22, and a wire-passing portion 23. The first engaging portion 21 and the second rotating portion 22 are spaced apart. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the retracted state, the first engaging portion 21 engages with the second engaging portion 13. The first engaging portion 21 is configured as a groove, and the second engaging portion 13 is configured as a claw. The first engaging portion 21 and the second engaging portion 13 engage with each other.

[0040] There are multiple first engaging portions 21, and the number of the first engaging portions 21 corresponds to the number of the second engaging portions 13. The multiple first engaging portions 21 are located on opposite sides of the front rotating portion 2 along the width direction of the auxiliary instrument panel.

[0041] In some other embodiments, the first engaging portion 21 is configured as a claw, and the second engaging portion 13 is configured as a groove.

[0042] The first engaging portion 21 and the second engaging portion 13 can be engaged or disengaged with each other by a single button press of a control button located on the front swivel portion 2 or the auxiliary instrument panel body 1. The front swivel portion 2 can be rotated relative to the auxiliary instrument panel body 1 manually or by a drive mechanism.

[0043] In some embodiments, the second rotating portion 22 cooperates with the first rotating portion 14 to allow the front rotating portion 2 to rotate relative to the auxiliary instrument panel body 1. The first rotating portion 14 and the second rotating portion 22 are arranged as through-holes, and the auxiliary instrument panel is provided with a rotating pin that penetrates the first rotating portion 14 and the second rotating portion 22 to enable the front rotating portion 2 to rotate. Furthermore, along the width of the auxiliary instrument panel, the second rotating portion 22 extends through the front rotating portion 2, and the first rotating portion 14 extends through the first side wall 15 and the second side wall 16.

[0044] In some other embodiments, the second rotating portion 22 is provided as a through hole, and the first rotating portion 14 is a rotating column protruding from the inner wall of the auxiliary instrument panel body 1 toward the front rotating portion 2, and the first rotating portion 14 is provided on the first side wall 15 and the second side wall 16. The first rotating portion 14 penetrates into the second rotating portion 22.

[0045] In some other embodiments, the second rotating portion 22 is a rotating column that protrudes from the side wall of the front rotating portion 2 toward the inner wall of the auxiliary instrument panel body 1. The first rotating portion 14 is configured as a through hole and passes through the first side wall 15 and the second side wall 16. The second rotating portion 22 penetrates into the first rotating portion 14.

[0046] The wire-through portion 23 passes through the inner side of the front rotating portion 2 , and is used to guide the wire harness so that the wire harness can pass into the front rotating portion 2 , thereby enabling the front rotating portion 2 to realize the electrical function.

[0047] The auxiliary instrument panel of this application utilizes a rotating hole or a rotating shaft to achieve rotation of the front rotating portion 2, which can significantly reduce the manufacturing cost of the auxiliary instrument panel. This also prevents the front rotating portion 2 from being stuck by the rear-mounted foot pad. When the front rotating portion 2 is folded into the auxiliary instrument panel body 1, it provides ample legroom, preventing bumps and soiling of the auxiliary instrument panel. Furthermore, when the front rotating portion 2 rotates relative to the auxiliary instrument panel body 1, since the auxiliary instrument panel body 1 remains stationary, it does not affect the ease of entry and exit for the second row of passengers.

[0048] In the auxiliary instrument panel of this application, the front and rear direction of the auxiliary instrument panel is represented by the X axis, and the direction from the rear to the front of the auxiliary instrument panel is represented by the +X axis. The height direction of the auxiliary instrument panel is represented by the Z axis, and the width direction of the auxiliary instrument panel is represented by the Y axis. For details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 .

[0049] like Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the present application also provides an instrument panel assembly, including a main instrument panel 3 and the auxiliary instrument panel described above. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the deployed state, the front rotating portion 2 is connected to the main instrument panel 3. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the retracted state, the front rotating portion 2 is separated from the main instrument panel 3, and the auxiliary instrument panel is spaced apart from the main instrument panel 3.

[0050] In some embodiments, the main instrument panel 3 includes a third engaging portion 31. When the auxiliary instrument panel is in the deployed state, the first engaging portion 21 engages with the third engaging portion 31. The third engaging portion 31 is preferably configured as a claw. The first engaging portion 21 can be engaged or disengaged with the second engaging portion 13, or engaged or disengaged with the third engaging portion 31, by a single button press. The control button can be located on the front swivel portion 2, the auxiliary instrument panel body 1, or the main instrument panel 3.

[0051] The present application also provides a vehicle including the above-described instrument panel assembly. By providing the above-described instrument panel assembly, when the main driver's door or the front passenger door of the vehicle is opened, the auxiliary instrument panel can be folded to create space between the auxiliary instrument panel and the main instrument panel for the driver to move from the driving position to the front passenger seat, or vice versa, thereby facilitating people's exit from the vehicle and improving the user experience of the vehicle.
