[0002] With the popularization of automobiles, people have higher and higher requirements for the practicality and comfort of automobile functional parts. Car seats were developed by our ancestors and serve as one of the most important means of transportation for people. However, traditional car front seats have no practical effect on rear passengers during use.
[0003] With the popularity of in-vehicle PADs, it has become mainstream for new car models on the market to be equipped with in-vehicle PADs to realize functions such as entertainment, navigation, car information display and fault auxiliary diagnosis. It can be used by front or rear passengers, and how to fix the PAD is a problem that each car company needs to solve.
[0004] Conventional PADs require the purchase of corresponding brackets to support and fix the PAD, but there are problems such as randomness, loose fixing methods, and inconvenience in use, which will affect the overall appearance of the vehicle and reduce the user experience.
[0005] Moreover, the PAD fixing bracket is not suitable for rear passengers, so existing car companies have introduced a magnetic fixing method. However, this method depends on the car company to set up the internal structure of the vehicle itself so that it can be magnetically fixed by the PAD. It also requires repurchasing the corresponding configuration to use with the PAD, which increases the cost. In addition, the magnetic fixing method is not very strong and is easy to fall off during driving. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0034] As shown in the figure, the present invention discloses a base structure that can automatically flip open and clamp a PAD. It is used to secure a PAD 3 in a vehicle, allowing it to be fixed vertically or positioned at an angle. It comprises a base 1, a flip cover 2 that cooperates with the base to lock or unlock the PAD 3, and a drive assembly for driving the flip cover.
[0035] The base 1 can be detachably arranged inside the vehicle body, wherein the inside of the vehicle body refers to the seat back, the center console in the cockpit or the co-pilot platform, etc. Its detachable arrangement can be achieved by using a corresponding groove in the vehicle body, and the connection between the base and the vehicle body is achieved by the two being locked or attracted to each other. The separate arrangement can meet the needs of fixation in different positions by setting multiple grooves, such as moving from the co-pilot platform to the seat back, etc., to facilitate passengers in different positions to use the vehicle-mounted PAD.
[0036] The base 1 includes an upper cover 12 and a bottom cover 13. The upper cover 12 and the bottom cover 13 cooperate to form a chamber 14, and the upper surface of the upper cover is recessed downward to form a receiving groove 11 for placing the PAD flat. The depth of the receiving groove is generally slightly greater than or equal to the thickness of the PAD, so that the PAD can be placed just right in the receiving groove 11. A perfect fit makes it more convenient to take out, and an opening is provided on one side of the receiving groove 11. The setting of the opening makes the receiving groove an incomplete setting, and then the PAD is fixed by cooperating with the flip cover when it is rotated, so that its fixing and unlocking depend entirely on the rotation of the flip cover, and it is more convenient and quick to take and put.
[0037] The flip cover 2 is rotatably arranged at one end of the base, and is provided with a pivot portion 22 and a locking portion 21. The pivot portion is placed in the chamber 14, and the locking portion 21 has the function of rotating to the opening, wherein two sides of the pivot portion 22 are provided with rotating shafts 221, and the rotating shafts 221 are supported and fixed by the upper cover and the bottom cover, and can rotate relatively. When rotating, the locking portion can change its position relative to the bottom surface of the accommodating groove from a state flush with the bottom surface of the accommodating groove to a state with an angle, that is, the locking portion 21 can cooperate with the accommodating groove 11 to form a locked state that fixes the PAD3 in the accommodating groove 11 and an unlocked state that releases the PAD lock by relative rotation; in the locked state, the locking portion 21 cooperates with the accommodating groove 11 to fix the PAD3 completely placed therein, and when in the unlocked state, since an opening appears on one side of the accommodating groove 11, the PAD can be easily taken out from it and used handheld.
[0038] The driving assembly is disposed in the chamber 14 and is used to drive the flip cover to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise to achieve switching between the locked state and the unlocked state.
[0039] The drive assembly includes:
[0040] Motor 4, used to generate power, preferably a speed reducer is provided between the motor and the gear set to play a protective role;
[0041] The gear portion 23 is arranged in linkage with the pivot portion and coaxially with the rotating shaft of the pivot portion, and is meshed with the gear set so that the flip cover can rotate relatively;
[0042] The gear set 5 is used to link the motor and the moving gear part. In this embodiment, the motor drives the worm gear meshing with the motor shaft through the worm linked to the motor shaft, and then drives the moving gear part through the gear coaxially arranged with the worm gear. In other embodiments, the gear part can be directly or indirectly driven by the gear linked to the motor shaft of the motor. It can be freely selected according to the setting position of the motor, and the number can be selected according to the size of the transmission force or the stroke requirement to realize the transmission of the power of the motor to the rotation of the flip cover, so that the flip cover rotates automatically and realizes the switching between unlocking and locking. Its control method can directly set a button or realize electronic control connection with the central control.
[0043] The gear portion 23 is integrally formed with the pivot portion, and a half gear is directly integrally formed on the pivot portion of the flip cover. The maximum rotation distance of the gear can enable the PAD to be converted from a horizontal fixation to an oblique fixation.
[0044] The locking portion includes:
[0045] The mating groove 211 cooperates with the accommodating groove 11 to form a mounting groove 6 adapted to the PAD. The mating groove 211 is U-shaped, and the opening direction is arranged opposite to the opening of the accommodating groove 11. The two are combined to form a complete mounting groove, and the size of the mounting groove is adapted to the PAD, thereby achieving the fixation of the PAD;
[0046] A plurality of first limiting blocks 212 are arranged at intervals along the inner wall of the matching groove, and are used to form a limiting or interference fit with the PAD placed in the installation groove when the locking portion is in a locked state.
[0047] The first limiting block 212 is in the shape of an elongated strip and is directly integrally formed on the inner wall of the matching groove, thereby reducing the difficulty of the process.
[0048] A plurality of second limiting blocks 111 are provided on the bottom side of the receiving groove. The second limiting blocks 112 are arranged opposite to the first limiting blocks 212 , and the two cooperate to lock the PAD.
[0049] The first limit block 212 is set on the upper edge or middle of the inner wall of the matching groove. If it is set on the upper edge, the first limit block 212 can be used to form a limit fit with PAD3 to prevent the PAD from falling off the installation groove. It can be cooperated with both the upper and lower sides to further improve the fixing reliability of the PAD.
[0050] If it is set in the middle position, the PAD can be clamped by interference fit, or by using some grooves on the side of the PAD for limited fit. The fixing method can be selected according to the characteristics of the PAD. Only the two need to cooperate to fix the upper and lower sides of the PAD, so that the PAD can be firmly fixed in the installation slot.
[0051] Furthermore, a placement slot 24 for inserting the PAD 3 is provided on the flip cover 2. The PAD is inserted into the placement slot and supported by the placement slot, so that the PAD 3 can be fixed in different placement modes.
[0052] Among them, the opening direction of the placement groove is perpendicular to the accommodating groove when the locking part is in the locked state. At this time, the installation groove is usually used to fix PAD3, which can be applied to the back of the seat, so that PAD3 is placed vertically, which is convenient for watching movies, etc.
[0053] When the locking portion is unlocked, the opening of the placement slot forms an obtuse angle with the plane of the receiving slot. This arrangement is typically used when the base structure is placed flat. By rotating the flip cover to the unlocked position, the opening of the placement slot is tilted, allowing the PAD 3 to be inserted diagonally to secure the PAD. This arrangement is suitable for securing a PAD on a sub-mount or for supporting and securing a PAD outside a vehicle.
[0054] The embodiments should not be regarded as limiting the present invention, but any improvements based on the spirit of the present invention should be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
