Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive cup holder technology, and more specifically to a cup holder support plate. Background Technology

[0002] During vehicle operation, drivers and passengers often need to consume various beverages, making car cup holders an indispensable convenience feature inside the car. Traditional car cup holders mostly use fixed-size cavities to accommodate cup-shaped containers. If the cup holder is designed too small, it can only accommodate smaller cups. While a larger cup holder can accommodate various sizes, smaller cups may tilt or even tip over, causing inconvenience. Therefore, existing technology has designed a claw-type car cup holder. This design incorporates movable claws within the cup holder, driven by elastic elements. These claws automatically extend and retract according to the size of the cup, achieving automatic locking. When a cup is placed in the holder, the claws adjust their position to fit the container, and the elastic elements firmly hold the cup in place, preventing it from shifting due to bumps during vehicle operation.

[0003] For example, utility model patent CN201753037U discloses a car cup holder, including a body and a cavity for accommodating a cup-shaped container. The cup holder also includes a telescopic locking mechanism disposed radially outside the cavity. The telescopic locking mechanism includes: a telescopic claw that can extend into and retract from the cavity; an elastic element that drives the telescopic claw to rotate and enter the cavity to lock the cup-shaped container; and a fixed bracket for mounting the telescopic claw and the elastic element. The elastic element is a torsion spring, and the telescopic claw has a mounting end and a free-rotating end. The mounting end of the telescopic claw and the torsion spring are sleeved on the same pivot. In this technical solution, the telescopic claw has a mounting end and a free-rotating end, the elastic element is a torsion spring, and the mounting end and the torsion spring are sleeved on the same pivot. Through the elastic force of the torsion spring, the telescopic claw rotates around the pivot towards the centerline of the cavity, and the free-rotating end extends into the cavity, thus always locking the cup-shaped container. However, the mounting end of the telescopic claw and the torsion spring are mounted on the same pivot. During installation, multiple components need to be precisely aligned, which increases the complexity and difficulty of installation. The free-rotating end of the claw passes through the opening of the partition and enters the cavity under the action of the torsion spring. During this process, the contact stress between the claw and the partition is relatively large, which can easily lead to damage to the claw or the partition. Secondly, the installation and removal of the claw requires fixing through hooks and hanging holes. This fixing method not only has the problem of loosening after repeated use, affecting the stability and reliability of the claw, but also makes disassembly and assembly cumbersome and laborious. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to provide a cup holder support piece, which is provided by setting a connecting shaft with a clearance notch on the support piece and setting a connecting groove with an opening on the cup holder body. The clearance notch is aligned with the opening so that the connecting shaft can pass through the opening and enter the connecting groove. The clearance notch is misaligned with the opening so that the connecting shaft can be confined in the connecting groove, thereby completing the assembly of the support piece. The connection structure is reliable and the assembly is simple and labor-saving.

[0005] This application provides a cup holder support piece, including a cup holder body and a support piece. One end of the support piece is provided with a connecting shaft. The cup holder body is provided with a connecting groove adapted to the connecting shaft. The cup holder body is provided with an installation opening adapted to the support piece. The support piece is connected to the connecting groove via the connecting shaft so that it can rotate and extend within the installation opening. The connecting shaft is provided with a clearance notch. The connecting groove is provided with an opening for the clearance notch to pass through. The connecting shaft can be rotated to align the clearance notch with the opening so that it passes through the opening and enters the connecting groove. The connecting shaft can also be rotated to misalign the clearance notch with the opening so that it is confined within the connecting groove.

[0006] In this technical solution, the cup holder body, as the main structural part of the cup holder, is used to accommodate and support cup-shaped containers. A support plate is installed on the cup holder body and is used to adjust the size of the cup-shaped container held by the cup holder body. A connecting groove is provided on the cup holder body, and a connecting shaft is provided on the support plate. The support plate, connected to the connecting groove via the connecting shaft, can rotate and extend within the mounting opening, allowing the support plate to be flexibly adjusted according to the size of the cup-shaped container. When a larger diameter cup-shaped container needs to be held, the support plate can extend outwards by rotation; when a smaller diameter cup-shaped container needs to be held, the support plate can retract inwards, meeting the user's needs for holding cup-shaped containers of different sizes in different scenarios. A clearance notch is provided on the connecting shaft, and an opening is provided in the connecting groove for the clearance notch to pass through. The clearance notch and the opening are adapted to each other, allowing the connecting shaft to enter or exit the connecting groove through the clearance notch. When the support plate needs to be installed, the connecting shaft is first aligned with... The opening of the connecting groove is aligned by rotating the connecting shaft, allowing the notch to align with the opening and the shaft to smoothly enter the groove. When the shaft needs to be fixed in the groove, it is rotated again to misalign the notch with the opening, thus limiting its movement and preventing it from detaching. This ensures the support piece won't easily fall off during use, improving structural stability and reliability. To remove the support piece from the groove, the connecting shaft is rotated to align the notch with the opening, allowing the shaft to pass through and disengage. This design, achieved by rotating the shaft, ensures both alignment and misalignment of the notch and opening. It not only guarantees reliable connection but also prevents structural damage due to improper installation. Furthermore, the design of the connecting shaft and groove makes the installation of the support piece simple and quick, eliminating complex mechanical structures, reducing the number of parts, lowering production costs, and requiring no complex tools for easy and labor-saving assembly.

[0007] As an improvement, the opening is provided with a stop end, which connects the opening to the connecting groove. The diameter of the stop end is smaller than the diameter of the connecting shaft. In this technical solution, the opening and the connecting groove are connected by a stop end, which acts as a limit. The diameter of the stop end is smaller than the diameter of the connecting shaft, preventing the connecting shaft from directly passing through the stop end into the connecting groove. When the connecting shaft enters the connecting groove, it must be rotated to align the clearance notch with the stop end. The connecting shaft can then pass through the clearance notch into the connecting groove. After the connecting shaft enters the connecting groove, it is rotated again to misalign the clearance notch with the stop end, thus confining the connecting shaft within the connecting groove. This prevents the connecting shaft from falling off due to external force or vibration during use, ensuring the stability and reliability of the connecting shaft within the connecting groove. Workers must follow the correct steps during installation to ensure the connecting shaft enters the connecting groove correctly, thereby improving the installation quality.

[0008] As an improvement, the opening is provided with a through end, which is located outside the stop end, and the diameter of the through end is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft. In this technical solution, the through end is provided outside the stop end, and the through end acts as a guide. The diameter of the through end is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft, so that the connecting shaft can smoothly pass through the through end and enter the stop end without complicated alignment operations, simplifying the installation process and improving the convenience and efficiency of installation.

[0009] As an improvement, the opening is located at the bottom of the connecting groove. When the angle between the support piece and the cup holder body is a right angle, the connecting shaft passes through the opening and enters the connecting groove via the clearance notch. In this technical solution, the opening is located at the bottom of the connecting groove, and the entry of the connecting shaft is associated with a specific position of the support piece. This ensures that the connecting shaft must be in a specific position and angle when entering the connecting groove, improving the accuracy and reliability of the support piece's assembly and disassembly. The clearance notch is precisely aligned with the opening when the angle between the support piece and the cup holder body is a right angle. This not only makes the installation of the support piece simpler and more standardized, but also, considering that the support piece cannot rotate to an angle perpendicular to the cup holder body under normal use, it prevents the connecting shaft from detaching from the connecting groove during use, ensuring the stability and reliability of the connecting shaft within the connecting groove.

[0010] As an improvement, an elastic element is fitted onto the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body, and the support piece is located between the elastic element and the cup holder body. The elastic element abuts against the support piece to provide elastic force to the support piece. In this technical solution, the main function of the elastic element is to provide elastic force to the support piece, allowing the support piece to freely extend and retract within the cup holder body while maintaining a clamping force on the cup-shaped container. This allows the support piece to be flexibly adjusted according to the size of the cup-shaped container, adapting to different sizes of cup-shaped containers. This achieves automatic adjustment and stable clamping functions for the support piece. When the cup-shaped container is placed in the cup holder, the support piece automatically adjusts its position under the action of the elastic force, tightly fitting the outer wall of the cup-shaped container. The elastic force provided by the elastic element not only ensures that the support piece can tightly fit the outer wall of the cup-shaped container, providing a stable clamping force, but also has a buffering effect, reducing damage caused by vibration and impact.

[0011] As an improvement, the side wall of the support piece is provided with a limiting protrusion. The support piece abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body through the limiting protrusion, and the limiting protrusion cooperates with the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body to limit the rotation of the support piece. In this technical solution, the support piece abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body through the limiting protrusion to prevent the support piece from excessively contracting into the mounting opening under the action of the elastic element, ensuring that the support piece maintains a stable position on the cup holder body for normal use, and ensuring the stability and safety of the cup-shaped container during use.

[0012] As an improvement, the support piece is provided with a mounting groove adapted to the elastic element, and the elastic element is embedded in the mounting groove to abut against the support piece. In this technical solution, the mounting groove on the support piece for embedding the elastic element ensures the stability and reliability of the connection between the support piece and the elastic element, prevents the elastic element from shifting or falling off during use, and through the mounting groove, the elastic element can effectively transmit the elastic force to the support piece, so that the support piece can always maintain an appropriate clamping force, ensuring that the cup-shaped container is more stable in the cup holder.

[0013] As an improvement, the cup holder body is provided with at least two cup slots for accommodating cup-shaped containers. A concave joint is provided between adjacent cup slots, and a limiting post adapted to an elastic element is provided on the outer wall of the concave joint. The elastic element abuts against the outer wall of the concave joint via the limiting post. In this technical solution, multiple cup slots are provided within the cup holder body, allowing the cup holder to simultaneously accommodate multiple cup-shaped containers, improving the cup holder's efficiency and multifunctionality. The concave joint between adjacent cup slots not only makes the shape of the cup slots more suitable for cup-shaped containers but also helps to reduce the volume of the cup holder body. The limiting post adapted to the elastic element is provided on the outer wall of the concave joint to fix the elastic element, ensuring that the elastic element remains engaged with the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body at all positions, avoiding gaps between the elastic element and the outer wall of the concave joint, thereby ensuring that the elastic element can fully abut against the support piece.

[0014] As an improvement, the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body is provided with a positioning groove adapted to the elastic element. The elastic element is connected to the positioning groove to be positioned and installed on the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body. In this technical solution, the main function of the positioning groove is to enable the elastic element to be positioned and installed on the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body, preventing the elastic element from shifting or falling off during use. The positioning groove provides a precise installation position, ensuring that the elastic element can be accurately installed on the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body. This not only reduces installation errors and improves installation efficiency, but also improves the stability and reliability of the entire cup holder structure.

[0015] As an improvement, multiple support plates are provided, and multiple mounting ports are provided corresponding to the support plates. All of the support plates abut against the elastic element. In this technical solution, multiple support plates are provided for clamping cup-shaped containers, resulting in higher clamping efficiency. Each of the multiple support plates receives elastic force through a single elastic element, enabling the support plates to clamp the cup-shaped containers more stably. The design of multiple mounting ports allows each support plate to be independently adjusted in position to accommodate cup-shaped containers of different sizes and shapes. This allows the cup holder to clamp the cup-shaped container simultaneously from multiple directions, providing multi-point support and ensuring the cup-shaped container is more stable within the cup holder.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this application discloses a cup holder support piece, including a cup holder body 1 and a support piece 2. One end of the support piece 2 is provided with a connecting shaft 21. The cup holder body 1 is provided with a connecting groove 11 adapted to the connecting shaft 21, and the cup holder body 1 is provided with a mounting opening 12 adapted to the support piece 2. The support piece 2 is connected to the connecting groove 11 via the connecting shaft 21 so that it can rotate and extend within the mounting opening 12. The cup holder body 1, as the main structural part of the cup holder, is used to accommodate and support cup-shaped containers. The support piece 2 is installed on the cup holder body 1 and is used to adjust the size of the cup-shaped container held by the cup holder body 1. The frame body 1 is provided with a connecting groove 11 and a connecting shaft 21 is provided on the support plate 2. The support plate 2 is connected to the connecting groove 11 through the connecting shaft 21, and can realize rotatable and telescopic movement within the mounting opening 12. This allows the support plate 2 to be flexibly adjusted according to the size of the cup-shaped container. When it is necessary to clamp a cup-shaped container with a larger diameter, the support plate 2 can be rotated to extend outward from the mounting opening 12. When it is necessary to clamp a cup-shaped container with a smaller diameter, the support plate 2 can be retracted inward from the mounting opening 12, thus meeting the user's needs for the cup holder to clamp cup-shaped containers of different sizes in different scenarios.

[0028] like Figure 2 , Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the connecting shaft 21 is provided with a clearance notch 211, and the connecting groove 11 is provided with an opening 111 for the clearance notch 211 to pass through. The connecting shaft 21 is rotated so that the clearance notch 211 and the opening 111 are aligned so that the shaft passes through the opening 111 and enters the connecting groove 11. The connecting shaft 21 is rotated so that the clearance notch 211 and the opening 111 are misaligned so that the shaft is confined within the connecting groove 11. The connecting shaft 21 can pass through the clearance notch 211 and the opening 111 to enter or leave the connecting groove 11.

[0029] like Figure 4and Figure 5 As shown, when the support plate 2 needs to be installed, first align the connecting shaft 21 with the opening 111 of the connecting groove 11. By rotating the connecting shaft 21, the clearance notch 211 is aligned with the opening 111, and the connecting shaft 21 smoothly enters the connecting groove 11; Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, when it is necessary to fix the connecting shaft 21 in the connecting groove 11, the connecting shaft 21 is rotated again to make the clearance notch 211 misaligned with the opening 111, thereby limiting the connecting shaft 21 in the connecting groove 11 and preventing the connecting shaft 21 from coming out of the connecting groove 11. This ensures that the support piece 2 will not easily fall off during use, improving the stability and reliability of the structure. When it is necessary to remove the support piece 2 from the connecting groove 11, the connecting shaft 21 is rotated to make the clearance notch 211 aligned with the opening 111, and the connecting shaft 21 passes through the opening 111 and comes out of the connecting groove 11.

[0030] The alignment and misalignment of the notch 211 and the opening 111 are achieved by rotating the connecting shaft 21. This design not only ensures the reliability of the connection, but also avoids structural damage caused by improper installation. On the other hand, the structural design of the connecting shaft 21 and the connecting groove 11 makes the installation process of the support plate 2 simple and quick. There is no complicated mechanical structure, which reduces the number of parts and lowers the production cost. The installation operation can be completed without the use of complicated tools, making the assembly simple and labor-saving.

[0031] More specifically, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the opening 111 is provided with a stop end 1111, which communicates with the connecting groove 11 through the stop end 1111. The diameter of the stop end 1111 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting shaft 21. The stop end 1111 serves as a limit, preventing the connecting shaft 21 from directly passing through the stop end 1111 into the connecting groove 11. When the connecting shaft 21 enters the connecting groove 11, it must be rotated to make the clearance notch 211 align with the stop end 1111. 111 Alignment: The connecting shaft 21 can pass through the notch 211 and enter the connecting groove 11 through the stop end 1111. After the connecting shaft 21 enters the connecting groove 11, rotate the connecting shaft 21 again to misalign the notch 211 with the stop end 1111. The connecting shaft 21 is then confined within the connecting groove 11, preventing it from falling off due to external force or vibration during use. This ensures the stability and reliability of the connecting shaft 21 within the connecting groove 11. Workers must follow the correct steps during installation to ensure that the connecting shaft 21 enters the connecting groove 11 correctly, thereby improving the installation quality.

[0032] More specifically, such as Figures 4 to 6As shown, the opening 111 is provided with a through end 1112, which is located outside the stop end 1111. The diameter of the through end 1112 is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft 21. The through end 1112 is provided outside the stop end 1111, and it serves as a guide. The diameter of the through end 1112 is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft 21, so that the connecting shaft 21 can pass smoothly through the through end 1112 and enter the stop end 1111 without complicated alignment operations, which simplifies the installation process and improves the convenience and efficiency of installation.

[0033] More specifically, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the opening 111 is located at the bottom of the connecting groove 11. When the angle between the support piece 2 and the cup holder body 1 is a right angle, the connecting shaft 21 passes through the opening 111 and enters the connecting groove 11 through the clearance notch 211. This associates the entry action of the connecting shaft 21 with the specific position of the support piece 2, ensuring that the connecting shaft 21 must be in a specific position and angle when entering the connecting groove 11. This improves the accuracy and reliability of the assembly and disassembly of the support piece 2. When the angle between the support piece 2 and the cup holder body 1 is a right angle, the clearance notch 211 is exactly aligned with the opening 111. This not only makes the installation of the support piece 2 simpler and more standardized, but also, considering that the support piece 2 cannot be rotated to an angle perpendicular to the cup holder body 1 under normal use, it can prevent the connecting shaft 21 from detaching from the connecting groove 11 under use, ensuring the stability and reliability of the connecting shaft 21 within the connecting groove 11.

[0034] More specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an elastic element 3 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the cup holder body 1. A support piece 2 is located between the elastic element 3 and the cup holder body 1. The elastic element 3 abuts against the support piece 2 to provide elastic force to the support piece 2. The main function of the elastic element 3 is to provide elastic force to the support piece 2, allowing the support piece 2 to freely extend and retract within the cup holder body 1 while maintaining the clamping force on the cup-shaped container. This allows the support piece 2 to be flexibly adjusted according to the size of the cup-shaped container, adapting to different sizes of cup-shaped containers. This achieves the automatic adjustment and stable clamping function of the support piece 2. When the cup-shaped container is placed in the cup holder, the support piece 2 automatically adjusts its position under the action of the elastic force, tightly fitting the outer wall of the cup-shaped container. The elastic force provided by the elastic element 3 not only ensures that the support piece 2 can tightly fit the outer wall of the cup-shaped container and provide a stable clamping force, but also has a buffering effect, reducing damage caused by vibration and impact.

[0035] More specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the side wall of the support piece 2 is provided with a limiting protrusion 22. The support piece 2 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1 through the limiting protrusion 22. The limiting protrusion 22 cooperates with the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1 to limit the rotation of the support piece 2. The support piece 2 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1 through the limiting protrusion 22 to prevent the support piece 2 from excessively shrinking into the mounting opening 12 under the action of the elastic member 3. This ensures that the support piece 2 maintains a stable position on the cup holder body 1 so that it can be used normally, and ensures the stability and safety of the cup-shaped container during use.

[0036] More specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support piece 2 is provided with a mounting groove 23 that is adapted to the elastic element 3. The elastic element 3 is embedded in the mounting groove 23 to abut against the support piece 2. The mounting groove 23 on the support piece 2 is used to embed the elastic element 3, which ensures the stability and reliability of the connection between the support piece 2 and the elastic element 3, prevents the elastic element 3 from shifting or falling off during use, and through the mounting groove 23, the elastic element 3 can effectively transmit the elastic force to the support piece 2, so that the support piece 2 can always maintain an appropriate clamping force, ensuring that the cup-shaped container is more stable in the cup holder.

[0037] More specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the cup holder body 1 is provided with at least two cup slots 13 for accommodating cup-shaped containers. A concave joint portion 14 is provided between adjacent cup slots 13. The outer wall of the concave joint portion 14 is provided with a limiting post 141 adapted to the elastic member 3. The elastic member 3 abuts against the outer wall of the concave joint portion 14 through the limiting post 141. The cup holder body 1 is provided with multiple cup slots 13, so that the cup holder can accommodate multiple cup-shaped containers at the same time, which improves the efficiency and versatility of the cup holder. The concave joint portion 14 between adjacent cup slots 13 not only makes the shape of the cup slot 13 more suitable for cup-shaped containers, but also helps to reduce the volume of the cup holder body 1. The limiting post 141 adapted to the elastic member 3 is provided on the outer wall of the concave joint portion 14. These limiting posts 141 are used to fix the elastic member 3 to ensure that the elastic member 3 is engaged with the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1 at all positions, avoiding gaps between the elastic member 3 and the outer wall of the concave joint portion 14, thereby ensuring that the elastic member 3 can fully abut against the support piece 2.

[0038] More specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1 is provided with a positioning groove 15 that is adapted to the elastic element 3. The elastic element 3 is connected to the positioning groove 15 to be positioned and installed on the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1. The main function of the positioning groove 15 is to enable the elastic element 3 to be positioned and installed on the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1, preventing the elastic element 3 from shifting or falling off during use. The positioning groove 15 provides a precise installation position, ensuring that the elastic element 3 can be accurately installed on the outer peripheral wall of the cup holder body 1. This not only reduces installation errors and improves installation efficiency, but also improves the stability and reliability of the entire cup holder structure.

[0039] More specifically, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, multiple support plates 2 are provided, and multiple mounting ports 12 are provided corresponding to multiple support plates 2. All multiple support plates 2 abut against the elastic element 3. The multiple support plates 2 are provided to clamp cup-shaped containers, which improves clamping efficiency. All multiple support plates 2 are provided with elastic force through an elastic element 3, which enables the support plates 2 to clamp cup-shaped containers more stably. The design of multiple mounting ports 12 allows each support plate 2 to be independently adjusted to adapt to cup-shaped containers of different sizes and shapes. This allows the cup holder to clamp cup-shaped containers from multiple directions at the same time, providing multi-point support and ensuring that the cup-shaped containers are more stable in the cup holder.
