[0002] Patent Background Technology
[0003] With the increasing demand for personalized automobiles, the rapid change and precise matching of vehicle body colors has become a pressing issue for the industry. Color swatches represent colors found in nature on certain materials (such as paper, fabric, and plastic), used for color selection, comparison, and communication. They serve as a tool for achieving a unified standard for color within a certain range. Often, designers must accurately grasp market demands, select colors, and then use color swatches to reproduce the colors required by the market.
[0004] Chinese Patent No. CN202011019440.3 discloses a color matching card for clothing, skin color, and hair color, in which several color matching cards are connected together by one corner through a through shaft. When it is necessary to view the color matching cards, the color matching cards are separated one by one for easy use by the user.
[0005] The applicant discovered the following technical problems when implementing the above-mentioned technical solution:
[0006] When using this color chart, if you want to observe the colors recorded on each color chart or show all the color charts to customers, you need to adjust the position of each color chart to be staggered from the other color charts. Moreover, the overall appearance of the color chart is not very aesthetically pleasing. The most troublesome thing is that if you accidentally touch a color chart, multiple color charts may overlap, and you will have to rearrange the color charts again, which is very cumbersome to use.
[0007] Therefore, providing a car color chart that allows each color card to be staggered at an equal angle is a problem that this utility model urgently needs to solve. Utility Model Content
[0008] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to overcome the limitations of existing color charts. In the first place, to observe the colors recorded on each chart or to display all the charts to a customer, the user needs to adjust the position of each chart to offset it from the others. Furthermore, the overall appearance of the charts is not aesthetically pleasing. Most importantly, if a chart is accidentally bumped, multiple charts may overlap, requiring the charts to be rearranged again, making the process extremely cumbersome. Therefore, this utility model provides a car color chart that allows for easy and equal-angle offsetting of each chart.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an automotive color matching card, which includes a rotating shaft and a color matching card sleeve. The rotating shaft is coaxially provided with a limiting groove whose angle gradually increases along its length direction. A bushing adapted to the rotating shaft is provided at one corner of the color matching card sleeve. A limiting block that can engage with the limiting groove is provided inside the bushing.
[0010] Preferably, the car color matching card further includes a color matching card box, and the rotating shaft is vertically arranged at one corner of the color matching card sleeve.
[0011] Preferably, one end of the rotating shaft is a splined shaft and the other end is a threaded post, and one corner of the colorimeter sleeve is provided with a spline groove that is compatible with the splined shaft.
[0012] Preferably, the inner side of the colorimetric card box is provided with a first elastic card that can be locked onto the outer surface of any of the outermost colorimetric card sleeves.
[0013] Preferably, a push-button groove is provided on one side of the colorimetric card sleeve.
[0014] Preferably, a first observation window is provided on one side of the colorimetric card box.
[0015] Preferably, the colorimetric card sleeve has a second elastic card on each of its opposite sides that can be locked onto the surface of the colorimetric card.
[0016] Preferably, a second observation window is provided on one side of the colorimetric card sleeve.
[0017] According to the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows: The color matching card sleeve of this application is rotatably set in the limiting groove by the limiting block on the bushing, and then the color matching card is inserted into the color matching card sleeve; this kind of car color matching card only needs to rotate the limiting block on each color matching card sleeve to the side wall of the limiting groove to realize the car color matching card unfolding at the same angle, so that the user can observe the color recorded on each color card, or show all the color cards to the customer. When it is necessary to retract the color matching card sleeve, it is only necessary to align all the color matching cards with the color matching card sleeve set in the limiting groove with the smallest unfolding angle to realize the overlapping and storage of all the color matching cards, which is very simple to use.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-4 A car color matching card, comprising: a rotating shaft 1 and a color matching card sleeve 2, wherein the rotating shaft 1 is coaxially provided with a limiting groove 101 with gradually increasing angle along its length direction, and a bushing 201 adapted to the rotating shaft 1 is provided at one corner of the color matching card sleeve 2, and a limiting block 202 capable of engaging with the limiting groove 101 is provided inside the bushing 201.
[0032] The color matching card sleeve 2 of this application is rotatably set in the limiting groove 101 by the limiting block 202 on the bushing 201, and then the color matching card is inserted into the color matching card sleeve 2. This kind of car color matching card can be unfolded at the same angle by simply rotating the limiting block 202 on each color matching card sleeve 2 to the side wall of the limiting groove 101, so that the user can observe the color recorded on each color card, or show all the color cards to the customer. When it is necessary to put away the color matching card sleeve 2, all the color matching cards can be stacked and stored by simply aligning all the color matching cards with the color matching card sleeve 2 set in the limiting groove 101 with the smallest unfolding angle. It is very simple to use.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 The car color matching card also includes a color matching card box 3, and the rotating shaft 1 is vertically set at one corner of the color matching card sleeve 2.
[0034] This application provides a colorimetric card sleeve 2 so that all colorimetric card sleeves 2 can be stored inside the colorimetric card box 3, thereby preventing the colorimetric cards from changing due to long-term exposure and extending the service life of the colorimetric cards.
[0035] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 The rotating shaft 1 has a splined shaft 102 at one end and a threaded post 103 at the other end. The colorimeter sleeve 2 has a spline groove 301 at one corner that is adapted to the splined shaft 102.
[0036] The rotating shaft 1 of this application is vertically inserted into one corner of the colorimetric card box 3 through the cooperation of the spline shaft 102 and the spline groove 301. Then, the threaded post 103 on the side of the rotating shaft 1 that extends out of the colorimetric card box 3 is locked by the nut and washer to prevent the rotating shaft 1 from rotating during use. At the same time, the rotating shaft 1 can be detached and installed.
[0037] Reference Figure 6 The inner side of the colorimetric card box 3 is provided with a first elastic card 302 that can be locked with the outer surface of any of the outermost colorimetric card sleeves 2.
[0038] The first elastic card 302 of this application can secure all the color matching card sleeves 2 inside the color matching card box 3. If the user wants to rotate the color matching card sleeve 2, he / she needs to overcome the force applied to the color matching card sleeve 2 by the first elastic card. This ensures that all the color matching card sleeves 2 will not shake after being unfolded, thus affecting the user or customer's viewing of the color card.
[0039] Reference Figure 5 The colorimetric card sleeve 2 has a push groove 303 on one side.
[0040] When all colorimetric card sleeves 2 are stored in the colorimetric card box 3, the user can push the colorimetric card sleeves 2 out of the colorimetric card box 3 through the push-button 303, so as to prevent the user from having to spend a lot of effort to pry out the colorimetric card sleeves 2.
[0041] Reference Figure 5 The colorimetric card box 3 has a first observation window 304 on one side.
[0042] This application allows for direct observation of the information and colors recorded on the colorimetric card inside the outermost colorimetric card sleeve 2 through the first observation window 304.
[0043] Reference Figure 6 The colorimetric card sleeve 2 has two opposite sides inside, each with a second elastic card 203 that can be locked onto the surface of the colorimetric card.
[0044] This application uses a second flexible card 203 to secure the colorimetric card inside the colorimetric card sleeve 2 to prevent the colorimetric card from falling out during use.
[0045] Reference Figure 4 The colorimetric card sleeve 2 has a second observation window 204 on one side.
[0046] This application allows for direct observation of the information and colors recorded on each colorimetric card within the colorimetric card set 2 through the second observation window 204.
[0047] When using the device provided by this utility model, the color matching card sleeve 2 is rotatably set in the limiting groove 101 by the limiting block 202 on the bushing 201, and then the color matching card is inserted into the color matching card sleeve 2. This kind of car color matching card only needs to rotate the limiting block 202 on each color matching card sleeve 2 to the side wall of the limiting groove 101 to unfold the car color matching card at the same angle, so that the user can observe the color recorded on each color card, or show all the color cards to the customer. When it is necessary to retract the color matching card sleeve 2, it is only necessary to align all the color matching cards with the color matching card sleeve 2 set in the limiting groove 101 with the smallest unfolding angle to achieve overlapping storage of all the color matching cards, which is very simple to use.
