Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a UTV center console, and more particularly to a UTV center console with storage function. Background Technology
[0002] UTVs offer an excellent off-road driving experience due to their unique structural design. However, the interior design of UTVs is relatively simple, and the space is quite compact. When the vehicle is fully occupied, there is not much extra space for personal belongings, which limits the owner's storage options. If using a built-in storage box, its location is relatively fixed for safety reasons, such as hanging it behind the seat. However, if there are passengers in the back seat or in single or two-person vehicles, the built-in storage box is not useful and is not suitable for UTVs. On the other hand, it is inconvenient to retrieve personal belongings from the UTV storage compartment, which can only store items not needed while driving, making it extremely inconvenient to use while on the road.
[0003] Currently, the UTV's center console has an instrument panel on the left and a light panel on the right, with no other design. Therefore, in order to meet the owner's storage needs, while also taking into account safety and the design of the interior, a UTV center console with storage function needs to be designed to improve the overall performance of the car's interior and the user experience.

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the center console of this utility model is formed by a platform 1 and a lower baffle 2 fixedly connected together. The lower baffle 2 faces the vehicle seat. The left side of the platform 1 contains the instrument panel and other equipment of the UTV vehicle, and the right side has a first storage compartment 3 symmetrically arranged. A second storage compartment 4 is also opened in the middle of the lower baffle 2. A push-lock structure 5 is symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the first storage compartment 3, and a push-lock structure 5 is also installed in the same position in the second storage compartment 4. A storage box 6 of matching size is placed in the first storage compartment 3, and a locking tongue 7 that cooperates with the push-lock structure 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the storage box 6 by screws. A storage basket 8 is placed in the second storage compartment 4, and a locking tongue 7 that cooperates with the push-lock structure 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the storage basket 8. The positions of the storage basket 8 and the storage box 6 can be interchanged as needed, such as... Figure 10 As shown.
[0025] like Figure 7 and 8 As shown, the storage box 6 includes a hollow box body 9, a lid 10, and a handle 11. A bushing 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the box body 9, and a rotating shaft 13 passes through the bushing 12. Both ends of the rotating shaft 13 are fixedly connected to the lid 10. The lid 10 can be opened and closed by rotating through the bushing 12 and the rotating shaft 13. Two symmetrical buckles 14 are provided on the lid 10 on the side opposite to the rotating shaft 13. The box body 9 has a slot 15 that cooperates with the buckles 14. The lid 10 and the box body 9 are locked by cooperating with the buckles 14 and the slot 15. Two rotating shaft sleeves 16 are also provided on the two sides of the lid 10. A second rotating shaft 17 is fixedly installed on both ends of the handle 11. The second rotating shaft 17 passes through the rotating shaft sleeves 16 on the lid 10. The handle 11 can be rotated upward to lift the storage box 6, thereby detaching it from the first storage slot 3. The lid 10 and the handle 11 are at the same height and are flush with the center console surface 1.
[0026] like Figure 9As shown, the storage basket 8 has multiple hook holes 18 on the side facing the seat. Hooks can be hung on the storage basket 8, allowing users to hang decorations or items that are inconvenient to stack inside the vehicle. A divider 19 is placed inside the storage basket 8 to divide the space inside the storage basket 8 into several small compartments, which can hold items such as water cups and small personal items. Furthermore, the storage basket 8 has no lid, which can be used to place some taller items such as bottled water or water cups. When used to place taller items, the positions of the storage basket 8 and the storage box 6 can be interchanged.
[0027] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the push-lock structure 5 includes a claw 20, a return spring, and a mounting shell 21. One end of the return spring is fixedly installed inside the mounting shell 21 (not shown in the figure), and the other end is fixedly connected to the claw 20. The claw 20 is slidably installed inside the mounting shell 21. The front end of the latch 7 is a T-shaped locking connector 22 that is narrow at the bottom and wide at the top. In its natural state, the claw 20 is slightly closed. When the latch 7 is pushed down, the T-shaped locking connector 22 at the front end of the latch 7 opens the claw 20, and the claw 20 slides down. The claw 20 is squeezed and closed by the inner wall of the mounting shell 21. At this time, the claw 20 wraps around both sides of the T-shaped locking connector 22 to achieve locking, and the return spring remains compressed. When the latch 7 is lifted up, the claw 20 slides up and is released from the squeezing of the inner wall of the mounting shell 21. As it continues to lift up, the T-shaped locking connector 22 breaks free from the constraint of the claw 20, and the claw 20 is released from the T-shaped locking connector 22. At this time, the return spring resets and supports the claw 20 to remain outside the mounting shell 21. The mounting shell 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage basket 8 and the storage box 6 by bolts. In order to increase the friction between the T-shaped connector 22 and the claw 19 to prevent the press lock structure 5 from loosening, rubber or other materials can be added to the surface of the T-shaped connector 22 and the claw 20 or a threaded structure can be added to its surface; the material of the claw 20 has a certain elasticity and can be squeezed by the inner wall of the mounting shell 21 to clamp it.
