Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicles, and more specifically to a table assembly and a vehicle comprising the table assembly. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of automotive intelligence, interior components are becoming increasingly intelligent, providing convenience for drivers and passengers. For example, folding table functions can be highly integrated with the car's interior, satisfying users' needs for work and entertainment without compromising aesthetics, while also enhancing the overall luxury of the vehicle's interior. This has thus become a competitive area among major automakers.

[0003] Currently, a common type of folding table is installed inside the armrest box. When in use, the table automatically opens outwards, and when finished, it automatically retracts into the armrest box. This is not only intelligent and convenient, but the table's concealed location within the armrest box also avoids occupying other interior space, improving space utilization and optimizing the vehicle's structural layout. For example, the automatic table disclosed in existing patent number CN201821371029.0 requires the user to open the armrest box lid and trigger the table opening button. The table then rises outwards from the armrest box and folds over to provide us with usable space. This automatic table includes a telescopic component for raising, lowering, and folding the table. It involves numerous components and a complex structure, requiring a large armrest box to accommodate it. This may not be suitable for vehicles with limited interior space, thus limiting its versatility.

[0004] In addition, in order to extend the length of the tabletop, the tabletop panel of the above-mentioned automatic tabletop includes a double-layer panel structure with folding. Users need to manually unfold the upper panel for use or manually fold it for storage, which cannot achieve intelligent control, increases the user's workload, and is not conducive to improving the user experience.

[0005] Therefore, existing automatic folding tables need improvement in both their structural composition and ease of use. Utility Model Content

[0006] This application provides a table assembly and vehicle, aiming to solve the technical problems of existing automatic folding tables having complex structures and low levels of intelligence, resulting in inconvenience in use.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:

[0008] A tabletop assembly includes a tabletop, the tabletop comprising a tabletop body and a tabletop support plate, the tabletop body being slidably connected to the outside of the tabletop support plate, the tabletop support plate having two rows of spaced first sliding grooves on the side facing the tabletop body; a flipping mechanism including a flipping plate and a folding arm, one end of the flipping plate being pivotally connected to the tabletop support plate, one end of the folding arm being pivotally connected to the flipping plate, the other end of the folding arm extending between the tabletop body and the tabletop support plate and having a first sliding shaft, both ends of the first sliding shaft slidingly engaging with the first sliding grooves, a transmission structure being provided between the first sliding shaft and the tabletop body; and a driving mechanism driving the folding arm to flip and fold the tabletop, and the first sliding shaft sliding along the first sliding grooves, the tabletop body sliding relative to the tabletop support plate under the action of the transmission structure.

[0009] In this technical solution, while simplifying the structure of the tabletop assembly to achieve automatic flipping and folding, the tabletop can slide relative to its support plate while folding. This allows the tabletop body to slide outward relative to the support plate, extending the overall length of the tabletop. This frees the user's hands and increases the usable area of ​​the tabletop, allowing the end of the tabletop body to slide further, thus providing a more comfortable user space. Understandably, based on the sliding function of the tabletop body, during use, the tabletop body slides outward relative to the support plate, and after use, the tabletop body slides in the opposite direction to maximize overlap with the support plate, reducing storage space. This satisfies the need for a large tabletop while minimizing storage space. Furthermore, the tabletop assembly has fewer components, which helps reduce the volume of the armrest box storing the tabletop assembly, avoiding occupying a large amount of interior space, increasing the types of vehicles the tabletop assembly can be compatible with, and improving its versatility.

[0010] In addition, the tabletop body slides while the folding arm flips, and only one drive mechanism is needed to achieve the two actions of flipping and sliding the tabletop body. The configuration is simple and the structure is compact, which can improve the overall performance of the tabletop assembly.

[0011] Optionally, the transmission structure includes a transmission gear disposed on the first sliding shaft and a first rack disposed on the main body of the tabletop, the tabletop support plate is provided with a second rack, and the two sides of the transmission gear respectively mesh with the first rack and the second rack.

[0012] In this technical solution, when the first sliding shaft slides along the first sliding groove, the transmission gear meshes with the second rack to rotate the transmission gear. At the same time, the transmission gear meshes with the first rack, thereby driving the tabletop body to slide. By having the transmission gear mesh with the first rack and the second rack on both sides respectively, the transmission is not only reliable and conducive to the smooth sliding of the tabletop body, avoiding accidental impact to the user due to excessive sliding speed, but also improves the compactness of the structural layout, which helps to reduce the overall thickness of the tabletop composed of the tabletop body and the tabletop support plate, further reducing the storage space.

[0013] Optionally, the table support plate is provided with a clearance hole for the other end of the folding arm to pass through, the second rack is provided with two rows and is located on both sides of the clearance hole, and the transmission gear is provided with two gears respectively corresponding to the two rows of second racks.

[0014] In this technical solution, the setting of the clearance hole provides conditions for the installation of the folding arm. By setting two transmission gears for power transmission, the contact area with the table body can be increased, the sliding stability of the table body can be improved, the sliding can be smooth, and the situation where the table body tilts during the sliding process can be prevented, or even the sliding can get stuck, affecting the normal opening or storage of the table body. This improves the reliability of the sliding function of the table body.

[0015] Optionally, the first rack has two rows and is respectively arranged corresponding to two transmission gears, or the first rack has one row and the width of the first rack is greater than the width between the two transmission gears.

[0016] In this technical solution, based on the setting of two transmission gears, the first rack can be set with two rows of narrower width or one row of wider width. When two rows are set, it is convenient to assemble with the two transmission gears one by one. When one row is set, the coverage area is larger, and it can be well adapted even when the transmission gears of different sizes are replaced, so it has good versatility.

[0017] Optionally, the folding arm is provided with a first connecting seat, and the first sliding shaft passes through and is fixed to the first connecting seat. When the first connecting seat abuts against the end face of the clearance hole, the table body folds and slides to the use position.

[0018] In this technical solution, the first connecting seat not only provides the installation of the first sliding shaft, but also acts as a limiting structure, so that the first connecting seat abuts against the end face of the clearance hole to restrict the sliding of the table body, which can ensure the stability of the table and prevent the table body from continuing to slide outward, causing instability and affecting the use effect.

[0019] Optionally, the flipping mechanism further includes a support arm, a slider, and a base plate. The flipping plate is provided with a slide rail. The slider includes a slider, a second connecting seat, and a second sliding shaft connecting the slider and the second connecting seat. The slider is slidably engaged with the slide rail. The two ends of the support arm are pivotally connected to the second connecting seat and the folding arm, respectively. The base plate is provided with a second sliding groove, and the second sliding shaft is slidably engaged with the second sliding groove. The driving mechanism drives the flipping plate to rotate the tabletop and drives the second sliding shaft to slide along the second sliding groove, so that the slider slides along the slide rail. The slider drives the folding arm to flip through the support arm.

[0020] In this technical solution, the flip panel can rotate the tabletop at a certain angle to raise it so that the armrest box can be extended, and then the tabletop can be folded. In other words, the user can extend the tabletop from the armrest box and fold it for use or retract it into the armrest box for storage with a single operation, which is convenient to use.

[0021] Optionally, the second chute includes a first chute section and a second chute section, wherein the distance from the end of the first chute section to the rotation center of the flip plate is greater than the distance from the end of the second chute section to the rotation center of the flip plate.

[0022] In this technical solution, by optimizing the shape of the second slide rail, when the second slide shaft slides along the first slide rail section, the flip plate drives the table to rotate and rise. Then, when the second slide shaft slides along the second slide rail section, the slider slides along the slide rail and drives the folding arm to flip, thereby realizing the folding and sliding of the table body. A series of actions of the table are realized under the premise of simplifying the structure.

[0023] Optionally, the driving mechanism includes a motor and a driving gear, the other end of the flip plate is provided with a shaft hole, the driving gear is fixed to the flip plate and is concentrically arranged with the shaft hole, and the base plate is provided with a shaft that is axially connected to the shaft hole.

[0024] In this technical solution, the rotation of the flip plate relative to the base plate can be achieved by the motor driving the drive gear to rotate. The structure is simple, and the gear drive can ensure the stability and reliability of the flip plate rotation.

[0025] Optionally, the tabletop body is provided with a receiving groove along its length, the tabletop support plate is received in the receiving groove and the bottom of the tabletop support plate is flush with the bottom of the receiving groove.

[0026] In this technical solution, when the tabletop support plate is housed in the receiving groove, the bottom of the tabletop support plate and the bottom of the receiving groove are flush, which can reduce the overall thickness of the tabletop, which is conducive to further reducing the storage space and achieving a compact structure.

[0027] Another object of this application is to provide a vehicle that includes the table assembly described above.

[0028] The vehicle described in this application has the same beneficial effects as the aforementioned table assembly, which will not be repeated here. Attached Figure Description

[0053] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, this application provides a tabletop assembly, including a tabletop, which includes a tabletop body 10 and a tabletop support plate 11. The tabletop body 10 is slidably connected to the outside of the tabletop support plate 11. The tabletop support plate 11 has two rows of spaced first sliding grooves 12 on the side facing the tabletop body 10. A flipping mechanism includes a flipping plate 13 and a folding arm 14. One end of the flipping plate 13 is pivotally connected to the tabletop support plate 11, and one end of the folding arm 14 is pivotally connected to the flipping plate 13. The other end of the folding arm 14 extends between the tabletop body 10 and the tabletop support plate 11 and is provided with a first sliding shaft 15. Both ends of the first sliding shaft 15 are slidably engaged with the first sliding grooves 12. A transmission structure is provided between the first sliding shaft 15 and the tabletop body 10. A driving mechanism drives the folding arm 14 to flip and fold the tabletop, and the first sliding shaft 15 slides along the first sliding grooves 12. Under the action of the transmission structure, the tabletop body 10 slides relative to the tabletop support plate 11.

[0054] This application simplifies the tabletop assembly structure to achieve automatic flipping and folding functionality. While folding, the tabletop body 10 slides relative to the tabletop support plate 11, allowing it to slide outwards relative to the support plate 11, thus extending the overall length of the tabletop. This frees the user's hands and expands the usable area of ​​the tabletop, allowing the end of the tabletop body 10 to slide further, providing a more comfortable user space. Understandably, based on the sliding function of the tabletop body 10, during use, the tabletop body 10 slides outwards relative to the support plate 11, and after use, the tabletop body 10 slides in the opposite direction to maximize overlap with the support plate 11, reducing storage space. This satisfies the need for a large tabletop while minimizing storage space. Furthermore, the tabletop assembly has fewer components, which helps reduce the volume of the armrest box storing the tabletop assembly, avoiding occupying a large amount of interior space, increasing the types of vehicles the tabletop assembly can be adapted to, and improving its versatility. In addition, while the folding arm 14 is flipped, the table body 10 is slid by the transmission structure. Only one drive mechanism is needed to realize the two actions of flipping and sliding the table body 10. The configuration is simple and the structure is compact, which can improve the overall performance of the table assembly.

[0055] The tabletop assembly of this application not only enables the entire tabletop to be flipped and folded, such as... Figure 3 or Figure 6 As shown, the table is positioned in front of the user for activities such as dining, working, or entertainment. At the same time, the table body 10 on the upper layer can slide outward along the lower table support plate 11. At this time, the total length of the table increases compared to when it is folded up, providing the user with more usable space. Moreover, when the table is folded up, the table body 10 can overlap with the table support plate 11 to the maximum extent, which avoids the need for a large armrest box due to the overall length of the table, thus affecting the utilization of interior space. This balances the usability of the table with the convenience of storage.

[0056] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 9 to 11 As shown, the flip plate 13 has a first shaft hole 133, and the tabletop support plate 11 has a second shaft hole 111. The first shaft hole 133 and the second shaft hole 111 are fitted together and pivotally connected by a pivot. The flip plate 13 has a shaft portion 134, and one end of the folding arm 14 has a third shaft hole 142. The third shaft hole 142 is installed in the shaft portion 134 to achieve a pivotal connection. Figure 9As shown, the upper side of the tabletop support plate 11 has two rows of spaced first sliding grooves 12 along its length or front-back direction. The two ends of the first sliding shaft 15 can slide along the two rows of first sliding grooves 12 respectively. Simultaneously, the transmission structure between the first sliding shaft 15 and the tabletop body 10 acts to drive the tabletop body 10 to slide. In an exemplary embodiment, in the tabletop's usage position, the flip plate 13 is vertical, and the tabletop and flip plate 13 are perpendicular to each other to form a horizontal state. The tabletop body 10 slides outward a certain distance relative to the tabletop support plate 11. At this time, the user can use the upper surface of the tabletop body 10 and the exposed upper surface of the tabletop support plate 11. The entire opening process of the tabletop does not require user intervention (except for operating the open button), thus freeing the user's hands and improving the user experience. Figure 3 As shown, the upper surface of the table support plate 11 near the flip plate 13 is provided with a recessed placement groove 113, which can be used to place cups and other items. When the table is in the use position, the placement groove 113 can be exposed for the user to use, which can improve the stability of placing cups and other items and create a more comfortable use environment for the user.

[0057] As a preferred embodiment of this application, the transmission structure includes a transmission gear 16 disposed on the first sliding shaft 15 and a first rack 17 disposed on the table body 10, and a second rack 18 disposed on the table support plate 11. The two sides of the transmission gear 16 are respectively engaged with the first rack 17 and the second rack 18.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the first sliding shaft 15 slides along the first sliding groove 12, the transmission gear 16 meshes with the second rack 18 to rotate the transmission gear 16. At the same time, the transmission gear 16 meshes with the first rack 17 to drive the table body 10 to slide. By having the transmission gear 16 mesh with the first rack 17 and the second rack 18 on both sides respectively, the transmission is not only reliable and conducive to the smooth sliding of the table body 10, avoiding accidental hitting of the user due to excessive sliding speed, but also improves the compactness of the structural layout, which helps to reduce the overall thickness of the table formed by the table body 10 and the table support plate 11, and further reduces the storage space.

[0059] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the top of the tabletop support plate 11 has a recessed receiving cavity 112. A first sliding groove 12 is provided on the opposite side wall of the receiving cavity 112. A second rack 18 is provided on the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 112. A first sliding shaft 15 is arranged along the width direction or left-right direction of the receiving cavity 112, and a transmission gear 16 meshes with the upper part of the second rack 18. A first rack 17 is provided on the side of the tabletop body 10 facing the receiving cavity 112, and the transmission gear 16 can also mesh with the first rack 17.

[0060] In one embodiment, the table support plate 11 is provided with a clearance hole 19 for the other end of the folding arm 14 to pass through, the second rack 18 is provided in two rows and is located on both sides of the clearance hole 19, and the transmission gear 16 is provided with two gears respectively corresponding to the two rows of second racks 18.

[0061] In this embodiment, the setting of the clearance hole 19 provides conditions for the installation of the folding arm 14. By setting two transmission gears 16 for power transmission, the area of ​​cooperation with the table body 10 can be increased, the sliding stability of the table body 10 can be improved, ensuring smooth sliding and preventing the table body 10 from tilting during sliding, or even sliding jamming, which would affect the normal opening or storage of the table, thus improving the reliability of the sliding function of the table body 10.

[0062] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the clearance hole 19 is provided on the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 112, and each second rack 18 is positioned between the first slide groove 12 and the clearance hole 19. This allows the other end of the folding arm 14 to extend into the receiving cavity 112 through the clearance hole 19, while also ensuring that the two transmission gears 16 engage with the two rows of second racks 18, thus improving space utilization. Using two transmission gears 16 at both ends of the first sliding shaft 15 for transmission, compared to using only one transmission gear 16 in the middle, ensures that the tabletop body 10 maintains a stable posture during sliding, improving the sliding effect of the tabletop body 10.

[0063] Furthermore, the top of the tabletop support plate 11 is also provided with a recessed placement groove 113, which is located near the pivot end of the tabletop support plate 11, providing space for users to place items such as cups. Based on the structure of the receiving cavity 112, placement groove 113, and clearance hole 19 in the tabletop support plate 11, in order to ensure the structural strength of the tabletop support plate 11, a grid-like reinforcing rib is provided around the clearance hole 19 at the bottom of the tabletop support plate 11. Preferably, the reinforcing rib covers the area of ​​the placement groove 113 and the second rack 18, so as to ensure that the bottom reinforcing rib can provide firm support when the placement groove 113 and the second rack 18 are under force, thus extending the service life of the structure.

[0064] Furthermore, based on the arrangement of two transmission gears 16, the first rack 17 can be arranged in one or two rows, as in one example, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the first rack 17 is provided in a row. The width of the first rack 17 is greater than the width between the two transmission gears 16. The coverage area of ​​the first rack 17 is large. When the transmission gear 16 with a larger tooth structure length is replaced as needed, the first rack 17 can also be adapted to the transmission gear 16. This can avoid replacing the table body 10 with a new one, thus saving costs.

[0065] Understandably, in other examples, the first rack 17 can also be set in two rows and corresponding to the two transmission gears 16 respectively. In this case, each first rack 17 only needs to be set with a smaller width, which is convenient for processing.

[0066] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the folding arm 14 is provided with a first connecting seat 141, and the first sliding shaft 15 is fixed to the first connecting seat 141. When the first connecting seat 141 abuts against the end face of the clearance hole 19, the table body 10 is folded and slid to the use position.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first connecting seat 141 not only provides the installation of the first sliding shaft 15, but also acts as a limiting structure, so that the first connecting seat 141 abuts against the end face of the clearance hole 19 to restrict the sliding of the table body 10, which can ensure the stability of the table and prevent the table body 10 from continuing to slide outward, causing instability and affecting the use effect.

[0068] like Figure 11 As shown, the first connecting seat 141 protrudes outward from one side of the surface opposite the folding arm 14, and the first connecting seat 141 is provided with a fourth shaft hole 1411 to allow the first sliding shaft 15 to be inserted and fixed. Figure 8 As shown, when the first sliding shaft 15 moves along the first sliding groove 12 to the point where the first connecting seat 141 and the end of the clearance hole 19 are stopped, the tabletop reaches the usage position, the drive mechanism stops working, and the tabletop body 10 completes sliding. This embodiment does not require an additional sliding limit structure, which can further simplify the composition of the tabletop assembly. The fourth shaft hole 1411 is located at the upper end of the first connecting seat 141, which allows the installed first sliding shaft 15 to be higher than the bottom of the receiving cavity 112, so that the transmission gears 16 at both ends of the first sliding shaft 15 can have a suitable height to mesh with the second rack 18.

[0069] In the aforementioned gear and rack transmission method, the tooth number relationship between the transmission gear 16 and the first rack 17 can be optimized so that the sliding stroke of the table body 10 is twice the stroke of the first sliding shaft 15, thereby improving the transmission efficiency and enabling the table body 10 to slide out faster and farther, thus increasing the table opening speed and saving user time.

[0070] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the flipping mechanism further includes a support arm 20, a slider 21, and a base plate 22. The flipping plate 13 is provided with a slide rail 131. The slider 21 includes a slider 211, a second connecting seat 212, and a second sliding shaft 213 connecting the slider 211 and the second connecting seat 212. The slider 211 is slidably engaged with the slide rail 131. The two ends of the support arm 20 are pivotally connected to the second connecting seat 212 and the folding arm 14, respectively. The base plate 22 is provided with a second sliding groove 221, and the second sliding shaft 213 is slidably engaged with the second sliding groove 221. The driving mechanism drives the flipping plate 13 to rotate the table and drives the second sliding shaft 213 to slide along the second sliding groove 221, so that the slider 211 slides along the slide rail 131. The slider 211 drives the folding arm 14 to flip through the support arm 20.

[0071] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figures 10 to 13 As shown, the slide rail 131 extends along the length of the flip plate 13 and is located on one side of the shaft portion 134. The folding arm 14 has a third connecting seat 143 on the side opposite to the first connecting seat 141. The third connecting seat 143 has a fifth shaft hole 1431, and the second connecting seat 212 has a sixth shaft hole 2121. Both ends of the support arm 20 have a seventh shaft hole 201. The two ends of the support arm 20 are respectively hinged to the third connecting seat 143 and the second connecting seat 212 to achieve pivotal connection. In this embodiment, the flip plate 13 can drive the table to rotate a certain angle and rise to extend the armrest box, and then fold the table. That is, the user can extend the table from the armrest box and fold it for use or retract it into the armrest box for storage with one click, which is convenient to use.

[0072] Understandably, initially the entire tabletop assembly was located inside the armrest box, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the tabletop assembly is currently upright. When the user needs to use the tabletop, the user can operate the open button. The drive mechanism drives the flip plate 13 to rotate the tabletop relative to the base plate 22, causing the tabletop to gradually stand up and extend out of the armrest box. Subsequently, the tabletop folds while the tabletop body 10 slides outward, finally reaching its final position. Figure 6 The tabletop is positioned so that when the user is finished using it, they can press the close button to retract the tabletop back into the armrest box for storage. When not in use, the tabletop is hidden inside the armrest box, without taking up other space in the vehicle, which helps to simplify the interior decoration.

[0073] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, when the tabletop reaches the usage position, the tabletop and the flip plate 13 are perpendicular to each other. One end of the folding arm 14 is on the tabletop and the other end is on the flip plate 13. Under the support of the folding arm 14 and the support arm 20, the tabletop can withstand a certain amount of pressure, which can meet the needs of users for dining, working or placing items, and improve the reliability of use.

[0074] In one embodiment, the second slide 221 includes a first slide segment 2211 and a second slide segment 2212, wherein the distance from the end of the first slide segment 2211 to the rotation center of the flip plate 13 is greater than the distance from the end of the second slide segment 2212 to the rotation center of the flip plate 13.

[0075] In this embodiment, by optimizing the shape of the second slide groove 221, when the second slide shaft 213 slides along the first slide groove section 2211, the flip plate 13 drives the table to rotate and rise. Then, when the second slide shaft 213 slides along the second slide groove section 2212, the slider 211 slides along the slide rail 131 and drives the folding arm 14 to flip, thereby realizing the folding and sliding of the table body 10. A series of actions of the table are realized under the premise of simplifying the structure.

[0076] like Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the first slide section 2211 extends in an arc shape, for example, and the second slide section 2212 extends horizontally, for example. The distance from the end of the first slide section 2211 to the rotation center of the flip plate 13 is R1, and the distance from the end of the second slide section 2212 to the rotation center of the flip plate 13 is R2. R1 is set to be greater than R2. In the initial position, the second slide shaft 213 is located at the end of the first slide section 2211, and the slider 211 is also located at the end of the first slide section 2211. As the flip plate 13 rotates upward, the second slide shaft 213 moves along the first slide section 2211, while the position of the slider 211 in the slide rail 131 remains unchanged. When the second slide shaft 213 enters the second slide section 2212, as... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, slider 211 moves downward along slide rail 131, slider 21 pulls folding arm 14, first slide shaft 15 of folding arm 14 moves to the right along first slide groove 12, causing table to flip and fold. At the same time, table body 10 slides outward under the action of transmission structure. When second slide shaft 213 moves to the end of second slide groove section 2212, table reaches final use position.

[0077] It should be noted that the rotation and folding actions of the tabletop can be performed in different ways. For example, in one configuration of the second slide 221, the tabletop is rotated to an upright position by the flip plate 13 before it begins to fold. In another configuration of the second slide 221, the tabletop is rotated a small angle by the flip plate 13 before reaching an upright position, and then it begins to fold, allowing the tabletop to rotate and fold simultaneously until it reaches its final usable position. In other words, the configuration of the second slide 221 can be flexibly designed according to actual needs to achieve different movement methods for the tabletop.

[0078] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the drive mechanism includes a motor and a drive gear 23. The other end of the flip plate 13 is provided with a shaft hole 132. The drive gear 23 is fixed to the flip plate 13 and is concentrically arranged with the shaft hole 132. The base plate 22 is provided with a shaft 222 that is axially connected to the shaft hole 132.

[0079] In this embodiment, the rotation of the flip plate 13 relative to the base plate 22 can be achieved by the motor driving the drive gear 23 to rotate. The structure is simple, and the stability and reliability of the rotation of the flip plate 13 can be guaranteed by the gear drive.

[0080] In a preferred embodiment of this application, the tabletop body 10 is provided with a receiving groove 101 along its length direction, and the tabletop support plate 11 is received in the receiving groove 101 with the bottom of the tabletop support plate 11 and the bottom of the receiving groove 101 being flush.

[0081] In this embodiment, when the table support plate 11 is housed in the receiving groove 101, the bottom of the table support plate 11 and the bottom of the receiving groove 101 are flush, which can reduce the overall thickness of the table, which is beneficial to further reduce the storage space and achieve a compact structure.

[0082] Preferred, such as Figure 5 As shown, in the initial position, the tabletop support plate 11 is completely retracted into the receiving groove 101, which minimizes the overall length of the tabletop. When the tabletop reaches... Figure 6When in the usage position, the tabletop support plate 11 is partially housed in the receiving groove 101. Specifically, the receiving cavity 112 of the tabletop support plate 11 is housed in the receiving groove 101, which avoids the internal components of the receiving cavity 112 from being exposed, thus preventing them from affecting the aesthetics. It also provides dust protection, preventing contamination of the transmission structure and ensuring its transmission efficiency. Meanwhile, the portion of the tabletop support plate 11 with the placement groove 113 is exposed, providing expanded space and facilitating the placement of cups and other items, meeting the user's need for ample space and improving user comfort. Whether in the initial or usage position, the bottom of the tabletop support plate 11, the bottom of the receiving groove 101, and the lower surface of the tabletop body 10 are all flush, minimizing the overall thickness of the tabletop and reducing storage space. The two sides of the tabletop support plate 11 along the width direction can slide along the corresponding side walls of the receiving groove 101, providing conditions for the sliding of the tabletop body 10.

[0083] The table assembly of this application can be installed in the armrest box of the front and / or rear seats of the vehicle, without occupying other space in the vehicle. When in use, the table can be quickly extended from the armrest box to a convenient position for the user. After use, the table can be retracted into the armrest box, which not only provides storage and protection for the table assembly, but also helps prevent dust and extends its service life. At the same time, it can improve the simplicity of the vehicle's interior layout and enhance the user's riding experience. Operating buttons or keys are provided on the outside or inside of the armrest box, allowing the user to open and close the table with a single touch, greatly reducing the amount of operation required and improving the user experience.
