The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0043] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0044] See appendix Figures 1 to 10 This utility model proposes a rotating bracket for automobiles, including a dashboard mounting shell 1, a central control screen mounting shell 2, and a bracket body 3 connecting the dashboard mounting shell 1 and the central control screen mounting shell 2. The bracket body 3 includes a first mounting component 31, a second mounting component 32, and a connecting rod 33.

[0045] The instrument panel mounting housing 1 is used to install on the instrument panel 001, and the central control screen mounting housing 2 is used to install the central control screen 002. The end of the instrument panel mounting housing 1 away from the instrument panel 001 is its front end 101, that is, the end of the instrument panel mounting housing 1 closer to the central control screen mounting housing 2 is the front end 101.

[0046] The first mounting component 31 is mounted on the dashboard mounting housing 1, and the second mounting component 32 is mounted on the central control screen mounting housing 2. The connecting rod 33 has a first end 331 and a second end 332. The first end 331 passes through the front end 101 of the dashboard mounting housing 1 and protrudes above the first mounting component 31, and is rotatably connected to the first mounting component 31. The second end 332 is rotatably connected to the second mounting component 32. The second end 332, the second mounting component 32 mounted on the second end 332, and the central control screen mounting housing can swing around the first end 331 in the first direction X, and the central control screen mounting housing 2 and the second mounting component 32 can swing around the second end 332 in the second direction Y, realizing multi-directional adjustment of the central control screen 002. The first direction X and the second direction Y are illustrated in the attached diagram. Figure 7 As shown.

[0047] Specifically, see the appendix. Figure 9 and 10 The car's dashboard 001 has two mounting rods 0011 for fixing the central control screen 002, and a decorative shell covering the two mounting rods 0011. The back of the central control screen 002 has two mounting bosses 0021 that mate with the two mounting rods 0011. When installing the rotating bracket, the original decorative shell needs to be removed first to expose the mounting rods 0011. Then, the first mounting part 31 of the rotating bracket is fixed to at least one mounting rod 0011. Next, the dashboard mounting shell 1 is installed on the dashboard 001 to replace the original decorative shell. Then, the central control screen 002 is simultaneously fixed to the second mounting part 32 and the central control screen mounting shell 2. The central control screen mounting shell 2 covers the second mounting part 32, so that the dashboard 001 and the central control screen 002 maintain a clean appearance.

[0048] This utility model optimizes the connection structure between the connecting rod 33 and the first mounting member 31, thus allowing the first end 331 to be positioned above the first mounting member 31, enabling the connecting rod 33 to extend upwards or forwards. Compared to the prior art, this raises the second end 332 of the connecting rod 33 by at least a distance equal to the thickness of the first mounting member 31, approximately 2 to 4 centimeters. Furthermore, the connecting rod 33 extends from the front end 101 of the dashboard mounting housing 1, allowing it to extend horizontally. This prevents the second end 332 from being excessively high, thus avoiding excessive raising of the central control screen 002, and also reduces the obstruction of the dashboard mounting housing 1 to the vertical swing of the central control screen mounting housing 2. Therefore, referring to the attached... Figure 1This rotating bracket maintains the original height of the central control screen 002, preventing user discomfort. The original height of the central control screen 002 refers to its initial height after the car is manufactured.

[0049] Further, see appendix. Figure 4 The instrument panel mounting housing 1 includes a top wall 11 and a side wall 12 formed on the lower side of the top wall 11. The top wall 11 and the side wall 12 enclose a first mounting cavity 13. A reinforcing rib is connected between the top wall 11 and the side wall 12 to maintain the structural stability of the instrument panel mounting housing 1. When the instrument panel mounting housing 1 is fixed to the instrument panel 001, the mounting rod 0011 extends into the first mounting cavity 13. The first mounting member 31 and the mounting rod 0011 are both fixedly mounted to the instrument panel mounting housing 1. Specifically, the same fastener passes through the side wall 12 and the first mounting member 31 and is fixed to the mounting rod 0011. This fastener can be a bolt, which is threaded onto the mounting rod 0011.

[0050] Furthermore, the side of the sidewall 12 away from the dashboard 001 forms the front end 101. A first opening 14 is provided at the front end 101 of the sidewall 12. The first opening 14 extends towards and is close to the top wall 11. A first end 331 passes through the first opening 14 and is placed inside the first mounting cavity 13, connecting the first end 331 above the first mounting member 31 and allowing the first end 331 to be positioned close to the top wall 11. This first opening 14 does not connect to the top wall 11; its main purpose is to maintain the integrity of the top wall 11 and prevent dust or other debris from falling into the first mounting cavity 13. The area above the first mounting member 31 refers to the area of ​​the first mounting member 31 facing the top wall 11 and above; the area of ​​the first mounting member 31 facing the ground is the area below.

[0051] Further, see appendix. Figure 5 The central control screen mounting housing 2 has a second mounting cavity 21, and a second opening 22 is provided on the central control screen mounting housing 2. The second mounting member 32 and the mounting boss 0021 are both fixedly installed in the second mounting cavity 21, and the second end 332 passes through the opening and is connected to the second mounting member 32. Specifically, the same fastener passes through the central control screen mounting housing 2 and the mounting boss 0021 and is fixed to the first mounting member 31. This fastener can be a bolt, and the bolt is threadedly connected to the first mounting member 31.

[0052] Because the bracket body 3 needs to be installed on the mounting rod 0011, the existing rotating bracket body 3 adopts a double-axis double-link 33 structure due to the influence of the position and shape of the original mounting rod 0011, which restricts the structural design of the existing bracket body 3 and reduces the height of the central control screen 002. Therefore, in this embodiment, the rotating connection structure between the connecting rod 33 and the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 32 is specifically that the main body 3 of the rotating bracket also includes a first rotating shaft 34 and a second rotating shaft 35. The first end 331 and the first mounting member 31 are rotatably connected through the first rotating shaft 34, and the second end 332 and the second mounting member 32 are rotatably connected through the second rotating shaft 35. The first rotating shaft 34 and the second rotating shaft 35 are perpendicular to each other, that is, the connecting rod 33 connects the first rotating shaft 34 and the second rotating shaft 35, so that the main body 3 of the bracket forms a double-axis three-link 33 structure. The angle design of the first rotating shaft 34 and the second rotating shaft 35 is more relaxed, eliminating the adverse effects of the position and shape of the original mounting rod 0011 on the position design of the second mounting member 32. Of course, in other embodiments, the connecting rod 33 can be a combination of multiple rods. The multiple rods can be arranged collinearly or have an angle between them. Even two adjacent rods can be connected by a rotating structure, so that the support body 3 can form a three-axis three-link 33, a three-axis four-link 33, a four-axis four-link 33, a four-axis five-link 33, and other structures.

[0053] Furthermore, both the first rotating shaft 34 and the second rotating shaft 35 are perpendicular to the connecting rod 33, and both the first rotating shaft 34 and the second rotating shaft 35 are disposed through the connecting rod 33.

[0054] See appendix Figure 6 , 7 8. The first rotating shaft 34 includes a first shaft body 341, a first damping element 342, and a first fastener 343. The first shaft body 341 penetrates the first end 331 and the first mounting member 31. The first damping element 342 and the first fastener 343 are both sleeved on the first shaft body 341. The first fastener 343 is threadedly connected to the first shaft body 341. The first fastener 343 and the first rotating shaft 34 cooperate to ensure that the first end 331, the first mounting member 31, and the first damping element 342 fit tightly together. Specifically, the first shaft body 341 has a bolt-like structure design and is vertically arranged. It has threads and can penetrate from top to bottom through the first end 331 of the connecting rod 33 and the first mounting member 31. The first fastener 343 can be a nut and abuts against the bottom of the first mounting member 31 through the first damping element 342. The first shaft body 341 and the connecting rod 33 form an "L" shape.

[0055] The second mounting component 32 includes a rod portion 321, a connecting portion 322, and a shielding shell 323. The shielding shell 323 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the rod portion 321 and surrounds the rod portion 321 to form a cavity. The connecting portion 322 is located in the cavity and fixed to the rod portion 321. The second rotating shaft 35 includes a second shaft body 351, a second damping element 352, and a second fastener 353. The second shaft body 351 is located in the cavity and rotatably mounted on the connecting portion 322. The second end 332 extends into the cavity and is sleeved on the second shaft body 351. Both the second damping element 352 and the second fastener 353 are sleeved on the second shaft body 351. The second fastener 353 is also threaded onto the second shaft body 351. The second fastener 353 and the second shaft body 351 cooperate to ensure that the second end 332, the second damping element 352, and the connecting portion 322 fit tightly together. Specifically, the second shaft 351 is threaded and horizontally positioned. The second fastener 353 can also be a nut, and it abuts against the connecting part 322 via the second damping element 352. The second shaft 351 and the connecting rod 33 can form a "T" or "L" shaped structure, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 8 In the embodiment shown, a “T”-shaped structure can be formed between the second shaft 351 and the connecting rod 33, wherein there are two connecting parts 322, two damping elements 352 and two fasteners 353, and both connecting parts 322 are sheet-shaped designs, with the second end 332 sandwiched between the two connecting parts 322.

[0056] In addition, the connecting part 322 can be set independently of the rod part 321. The connecting part 322 can be fixed to the upper surface of the rod part 321 by bolts. The main purpose is to provide sufficient space for the rod part 321 to swing upward around the second axis 351.

[0057] Furthermore, the first mounting component 31 is designed in the shape of a rod and is distributed along the width direction of the instrument panel mounting shell 1, and the second mounting component 32 is designed in the shape of a rod and is distributed along the width direction of the central control screen mounting shell 2. This arrangement makes the connection structure between the first mounting component 31 and the instrument panel mounting shell 1, and the second mounting component 32 and the central control screen mounting shell 2 more stable and the force more balanced.

[0058] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this utility model, but do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. This utility model can be implemented in many different forms; rather, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this utility model.
