Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive seat technology, and in particular to an automotive seat map pocket mounting structure. Background Technology
[0002] In automotive interior design, car seat map pockets, as a practical feature, provide convenient storage space for passengers, storing small items such as maps, magazines, and tickets. This significantly improves interior space utilization and the driving experience. Traditional car seat map pocket installation relies on the elasticity of leather to achieve a snug fit against the backrest. Specifically, map pockets are typically made of leather, which, through its elastic deformation, holds the pocket tightly against the back of the backrest. This installation method meets basic needs in the short term, allowing the map pocket to adhere closely to the backrest and maintain the overall aesthetics and tidiness of the interior. However, this traditional installation structure has significant drawbacks. Over time, the leather inevitably suffers from various factors, causing its elasticity to gradually diminish. During daily use, the map pocket is frequently unfolded and folded, subjecting the leather to stretching, folding, and other external forces, as well as environmental factors such as interior temperature and humidity. These factors combined gradually damage the leather's elastic fibers, leading to a continuous decline in its elasticity. Once the leather loses its elasticity, the map pocket can no longer be properly secured to the back of the seatback panel as it originally was. The map pocket may become loose or droopy, which not only affects the aesthetics of the car's interior but also makes it less stable when storing items, causing items to easily shift or even fall out of the pocket, resulting in inconvenience for drivers and passengers. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model aims to provide a car seat map pocket installation structure that can maintain the map pocket stably attached to the backrest panel for a long time, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the map pocket.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a car seat map pocket mounting structure, including a backrest panel and a map pocket. The map pocket includes a map pocket body and a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is fixed to the back of the backrest panel. The bottom edge and two side edges of the map pocket body are respectively fixed to the mounting bracket with leather, and the map pocket body is attached inward to the backrest panel. It also includes two diagonally intersecting telescopic strips. One end of the two telescopic strips is fixed to the two ends of the front of the backrest panel, and the other end of the two telescopic strips extends backward out of the backrest panel and is fixed to the two ends of the front of the map pocket body. When the map pocket body is opened outward, the telescopic strips have an elastic force to drive the map pocket body to return to its original position.
[0005] In the above solution: the backrest panel is provided with a "7"-shaped hook, and the corresponding end of the telescopic strip is fixed to the corresponding hook through the hanging hole, thereby fixing it to the backrest panel. The structure is simple and easy to install.
[0006] In the above scheme: of the two telescopic strips, the first end of one telescopic strip is fixed to the right end of the front of the backrest panel, and the end of the telescopic strip passes through the left end of the backrest panel and the left end of the mounting bracket before being fixed to the map bag body. The first end of the other telescopic strip is fixed to the left end of the front of the backrest panel, and the end of the telescopic strip passes through the right end of the backrest panel and the right end of the mounting bracket before being fixed to the map bag body. The two telescopic strips are arranged in a crisscross pattern, each fixed from one side of the backrest panel and passing through the other side to connect to the map bag body, making the tension on the map bag body on the back of the backrest panel more even.
[0007] In the above solution: the telescopic strip extends rearward through a pre-drilled hole on the backrest panel. A guide groove is provided on the front of the backrest panel along the extension direction of the telescopic strip, and the telescopic strip slides within the guide groove. The guide groove provides precise path guidance for the movement of the telescopic strip. During the opening or closing of the map pocket body, the telescopic strip can slide smoothly along the guide groove, avoiding problems such as jamming and shaking caused by deviations in the direction of movement, thus ensuring the accuracy and stability of the telescopic strip's movement.
[0008] In the above scheme: the guide groove is positioned close to the through hole, and several spherical protrusions are also provided on the front surface of the backrest panel near the through hole. These spherical protrusions are located at the ends of the guide groove, and the corresponding parts of the telescopic strip are spaced apart from the surface of the backrest panel by these spherical protrusions. The spherical protrusions separate the corresponding parts of the telescopic strip from the surface of the backrest panel, greatly reducing the direct contact area between the telescopic strip and the backrest panel. During the movement of the telescopic strip, the reduced contact area means reduced friction, thereby reducing energy loss caused by friction, making the movement of the telescopic strip smoother, and also helping to increase the service life of the telescopic strip.
[0009] In the above scheme: there are four spherical protrusions arranged in a matrix, which provide multiple support points for the telescopic strip. This distributed support method makes the pressure on each spherical protrusion relatively small, thereby reducing the friction at each contact point and making the telescopic strip slide more smoothly.
[0010] In the above solution: the guide groove is provided with crisscrossing ribs, and the telescopic strip is supported on each rib. The crisscrossing ribs form a grid-like support structure in the guide groove. Compared with direct contact with the guide groove over a large area, the contact area of the telescopic strip is significantly reduced, effectively reducing the friction experienced by the telescopic strip during movement, making the telescopic strip slide more smoothly, and reducing the effort required when operating the map bag body.
[0011] In the above solution: both the backrest panel and the map pocket are made of plastic, and the back of both are covered with leather. The leather covering adds a sense of luxury and refinement to the backrest panel and the map pocket.
[0012] In the above solution: the mounting bracket is U-shaped, and the leather on the back of the map bag body extends towards the bottom and both sides, wrapping around the map bag body and fixing it to the mounting bracket. This allows the bottom edge of the map bag body to be fixed to the bottom end of the mounting bracket via leather, and the two sides of the map bag body to the two ends of the mounting bracket via leather. The extended leather integrates seamlessly with the map bag body and the mounting bracket, making the entire map bag mounting structure appear more coherent and unified.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. Traditional map pockets rely on the elasticity of leather to fit snugly against the backrest panel. Over time, the leather's elasticity diminishes, causing the map pocket to lose its tightness. This design, however, incorporates diagonally crisscrossing elastic strips. One end of each strip is fixed to both ends of the front of the backrest panel, while the other end extends backward and is fixed to both ends of the front of the map pocket itself. This creates a continuous tension mechanism, allowing the map pocket to maintain a stable and long-term fit against the backrest panel thanks to the tension of the elastic strips. This prevents loosening and sagging caused by the loss of leather elasticity, effectively improving the map pocket's fit stability. 2. As the map pocket unfolds to store items, its shape changes. The elastic strips automatically adjust the tension as the map pocket changes shape, applying a compressive force to the items, ensuring they are securely stored inside and won't easily slip out.

[0020] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the installation of the telescopic strip on the map bag body. Detailed Implementation
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 6, a car seat map pocket installation structure mainly consists of a backrest panel 1, a map pocket, and two diagonally intersecting telescopic strips 4.
[0022] The map bag includes a map bag body 2 and a mounting bracket 3. The mounting bracket 3 is fixed to the back of the backrest panel 1. The bottom edge and two sides of the map bag body 2 are fixed to the mounting bracket 3 by leather, and the map bag body 2 is attached inward to the backrest panel 1.
[0023] One end of each of the two telescopic strips 4 is fixed to both ends of the front of the backrest panel 1, and the other end of each telescopic strip 4 extends backward through the backrest panel 1 and is fixed to both ends of the front of the map pocket body 2. When the map pocket body 2 is opened outward, the telescopic strips 4 have an elastic force that drives the map pocket body 1 to return to its original position.
[0024] Ideally, the backrest panel 1 is equipped with a "7"-shaped hook 11, and the corresponding end of the telescopic strip 4 is fixed to the corresponding hook 11 through the hanging hole, thereby fixing it to the backrest panel 1. The structure is simple and easy to install.
[0025] Ideally, of the two telescopic strips 4, the first end of one telescopic strip 4 is fixed to the right front end of the backrest panel 1, and the end of this telescopic strip 4 passes through the left end of the backrest panel 1 and the left end of the mounting bracket 3 before being fixed to the map bag body 2. The first end of the other telescopic strip 4 is fixed to the left front end of the backrest panel 1, and the end of this telescopic strip 4 passes through the right end of the backrest panel 1 and the right end of the mounting bracket 3 before being fixed to the map bag body 2. The two telescopic strips 4 are arranged in a crisscross pattern, each fixed from one side of the backrest panel 1 and passing through the other side to connect to the map bag body 2. This arrangement makes the tension on the map bag body 2 on the back of the backrest panel 1 more even.
[0026] Ideally, the telescopic bar 4 extends rearward through a pre-drilled hole 13 on the backrest panel 1. A guide groove 12 is provided on the front of the backrest panel 1 along the extension direction of the telescopic bar 4, and the telescopic bar 4 slides within the guide groove 12. The guide groove 12 provides precise path guidance for the movement of the telescopic bar 4. During the opening or closing of the map pocket body 2, the telescopic bar 4 can slide smoothly along the guide groove 12, avoiding problems such as jamming and shaking caused by deviations in the direction of movement, thus ensuring the accuracy and stability of the telescopic bar 4's movement.
[0027] Ideally, the guide groove 12 is positioned close to the through hole 13, and several spherical protrusions 14 are also provided on the front side of the backrest panel 1 near the through hole 13. The spherical protrusions 14 are located at the ends of the guide groove 12, and the corresponding parts of the telescopic strip 4 are spaced from the surface of the backrest panel 1 by the spherical protrusions 14. The spherical protrusions 14 separate the corresponding parts of the telescopic strip 4 from the surface of the backrest panel 1, greatly reducing the direct contact area between the telescopic strip 4 and the backrest panel 1. During the movement of the telescopic strip 4, the reduced contact area means a reduction in friction, thereby reducing energy loss caused by friction, making the movement of the telescopic strip 4 smoother, and also helping to increase the service life of the telescopic strip 4.
[0028] Ideally, the spherical protrusions 14 are arranged in a matrix of four, providing multiple support points for the telescopic strip 4. This distributed support method makes the pressure on each spherical protrusion 14 relatively small, thereby reducing the friction at each contact point and making the telescopic strip 4 slide more smoothly.
[0029] Ideally, the guide groove 12 is provided with crisscrossing ribs, and the telescopic strip 4 is supported on each rib. The crisscrossing ribs form a grid-like support structure in the guide groove 12. Compared with direct large-area contact with the guide groove 12, the contact area of the telescopic strip 4 is significantly reduced, which effectively reduces the friction force on the telescopic strip 4 during movement, making the telescopic strip 4 slide more smoothly and requiring less effort when operating the map bag body 2.
[0030] Ideally, both the backrest panel 1 and the map pocket body 2 should be made of plastic, with leather covering the back of both. The leather covering adds a sense of luxury and sophistication to the backrest panel 1 and the map pocket body 2.
[0031] Ideally, the mounting bracket 3 is U-shaped, with the leather on the back of the map bag body 2 extending towards the bottom and sides, wrapping around the map bag body 2 and securing it to the mounting bracket 3. This allows the bottom edge of the map bag body 2 to be secured to the bottom of the mounting bracket 3 via leather, and the two sides of the map bag body 2 to the two ends of the mounting bracket 3 via leather. The extended leather integrates seamlessly with the map bag body 2 and the mounting bracket 3, making the entire map bag mounting structure appear more coherent and unified.
