[0039] The armrest assembly 10 provided in this application embodiment can be applied to various types of door assemblies 100 to improve the riding comfort of passengers.
[0040] Based on this, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application embodiment also provides an armrest assembly 10, which is used to cooperate with the door body 20 of the vehicle door assembly 100 to provide a position for the occupant to rest their arm.
[0041] To better illustrate the handrail assembly 10 provided in the embodiments of this application, refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The handrail assembly 10 includes a handrail body 1 and a cover plate 2. For example... Figure 4 As shown, the length direction of the handrail body 1 (e.g.) Figure 2 The two ends of the armrest body 1 (shown in the first direction) are connected to the door body 20. At least a portion of the armrest body 1 is spaced apart from the door body 20 and defines a receiving space 11. The upper and lower ends of the receiving space 11 are open. When the passenger uses the armrest body 1, their fingers can be placed in the receiving space 11, so that the user can firmly grasp the armrest body 1, which helps the user maintain balance when the vehicle encounters bumps and increases the user's experience.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 The cover plate 2 is movably disposed at the lower end of the armrest body 1 and is used to open or close the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11. When the cover plate 2 opens the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the occupant's fingers can be placed inside the accommodating space 11 and can be stretched out inside the accommodating space 11, so that the user can firmly grasp the armrest body 1, which helps the user maintain balance when the vehicle encounters bumps and improves the user experience. When the cover plate 2 closes the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the cover plate 2, the armrest body 1 and the door 20 together define the closed accommodating space 11 at the lower end, which can be used for storage and makes it convenient for the user to store items.
[0043] The movement of the cover plate 2 is not limited, as long as it can open or close the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11. For example, the cover plate 2 can open or close the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11 by sliding, translating, or rotating.
[0044] According to the armrest assembly 10 of this application, by separating at least a portion of the armrest body 1 from the door body 20 and defining an accommodating space 11, the cover plate 2 is movably disposed at the lower end of the armrest body 1. When the cover plate 2 opens the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, when the occupant uses the armrest body 1, their fingers can be placed in the accommodating space 11 and can be stretched out in the accommodating space 11, so that the user can firmly grasp the armrest body 1, which is convenient for the user to maintain balance when the vehicle encounters bumps and improves the user experience. When the cover plate 2 closes the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the cover plate 2, the armrest body 1 and the door body 20 together define the lower closed accommodating space 11, which can be used for storage, making it convenient for the user to store items.
[0045] In addition, in this embodiment, the materials of the cover plate 2 and the handrail body 1 are not limited, as long as they can meet the installation connection strength requirements.
[0046] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The cover plate 2 is slidably disposed at the lower end of the handrail body 1, making the movement of the cover plate 2 relatively simple and convenient, and the movement process of the cover plate 2 is relatively simple.
[0047] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The handrail assembly 10 also includes a slide rail 3, which is located at the lower end of the handrail body 1, and extends along the length of the cover plate 2 (e.g., along the slide rail 3). Figure 2 The two ends of the cover plate 2 (shown in the first direction) are respectively movably disposed in two slide rails 3. The slide rails 3 can limit the sliding trajectory of the cover plate 2, so that the sliding path of the cover plate 2 is relatively stable and reliable.
[0048] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The lower end of the handrail body 1 is provided with a limiting member 12, and the lower surface of the cover plate 2 is provided with a first stop member 21. When the cover plate 2 closes the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the first stop member 21 and the end face away from the door body 20 of the limiting member 12 abut against each other. This can ensure that the position of the cover plate 2 is more reliable when the lower end of the accommodating space 11 is closed, avoid the cover plate 2 abutting against the door body 20, avoid the cover plate 2 abrading the door body 20, avoid causing appearance damage to the door body 20, and at the same time ensure the storage effect of the accommodating space 11 and prevent items from falling out from the lower end of the accommodating space 11.
[0049] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 3A second stop 22 is provided on the lower end surface of the cover plate 2. When the cover plate 2 opens the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the second stop 22 and the end face of the limiting member 12 away from the door body 20 stop each other. This can ensure that the position of the cover plate 2 is more reliable when the lower end of the accommodating space 11 is opened, and prevent the cover plate 2 from disengaging from the armrest body 1. At the same time, it prevents the cover plate 2 from moving towards the position of closing the lower end of the accommodating space 11, thus preventing the fingers of passengers from being pinched and avoiding a poor user experience for passengers.
[0050] In this embodiment, the vertical direction (e.g.) Figure 1 In the vertical direction shown, the end of the cover plate 2 closest to the door 20 is always located below the end furthest from the door 20, allowing the user to easily close the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11 with the aid of gravity.
[0051] In addition, there is a certain gap between the slide groove 31 of the slide rail 3 and the cover plate 2. When the cover plate 2 changes from opening the lower end of the accommodating space 11 to closing the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the cover plate 2 can rotate a certain amount about the contact point between the second stop member 22 and the limiting member 12 as the axis, so as to realize that the second stop member 22 and the limiting member 12 are disengaged from the stop engagement.
[0052] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 The armrest assembly 10 also includes a light-emitting element 4, which is located on the side of the armrest assembly 10 facing the door 20 and is used to project light onto the door 20. It can serve as an ambient light for the vehicle, creating a comfortable and personalized interior environment for passengers and enhancing the vehicle's technological and classy feel.
[0053] Furthermore, the light-emitting element 4 is located at the lower end of the side wall of the handrail body 1 facing the door body 20. The light axis of the light-emitting element 4 is tilted downward, which can form the effect of a light waterfall and enhance the aesthetics.
[0054] Meanwhile, the light-emitting element 4 can be placed inside the armrest body 1, and a hollow area can be set at the corresponding position to reduce the space occupied by the light-emitting element 4 in the vehicle and improve the space utilization of the vehicle. At the same time, different hollow shapes can be set to make the lighting effect more diversified.
[0055] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 1 When the cover plate 2 opens the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the end of the cover plate 2 away from the door body 20 does not extend beyond the end of the armrest body 1 away from the door body 20, so as to prevent the cover plate 2 from protruding towards the occupant when the door assembly 100 is closed, thus avoiding scratching the occupant and reducing safety risks.
[0056] According to the door assembly 100 of this application, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2It includes a door body 20 and a handrail assembly 10. The two ends of the handrail body 1 along its length are connected to the door body 20, providing a place for the occupant to hold onto their arms.
[0057] According to the door assembly 100 of this application, by separating at least a portion of the armrest body 1 from the door body 20 and defining an accommodating space 11, the cover 2 is movably disposed at the lower end of the armrest body 1. When the cover 2 opens the lower end of the accommodating space 11, when the occupant uses the armrest body 1, their fingers can be placed in the accommodating space 11 and can be stretched out in the accommodating space 11, so that the user can firmly grasp the armrest body 1, which is convenient for the user to maintain balance when the vehicle encounters bumps and improves the user experience. When the cover 2 closes the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the cover 2, the armrest body 1 and the door body 20 together define the lower closed accommodating space 11, which can be used for storage and is convenient for the user to store items.
[0058] The vehicle according to this application includes the aforementioned door assembly 100.
[0059] According to the vehicle of this application, by separating at least a portion of the armrest body 1 from the door body 20 and defining an accommodating space 11, the cover 2 is movably disposed at the lower end of the armrest body 1. When the cover 2 opens the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the occupant's fingers can be placed in the accommodating space 11 and can be stretched out within the accommodating space 11, allowing the user to grip the armrest body 1 more firmly, facilitating the user's balance when the vehicle encounters bumps, and enhancing the user's experience. When the cover 2 closes the opening at the lower end of the accommodating space 11, the cover 2, the armrest body 1, and the door body 20 together define the closed accommodating space 11 at the lower end, which can be used for storage, making it convenient for the user to store items.
