[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0030] An unlocking transmission mechanism 5 for an electric glove box, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the device includes an actuator 4, a locking rod 51, and a bushing assembly 6. The bushing assembly 6 includes a limiting sleeve 61. The locking rod 51 and the bushing assembly are respectively mounted on the box body 11 and the box cover 2 of the glove box 1. The output end of the actuator 4 is connected to a push block 43, which is movably mounted on one side of the limiting sleeve 61. The locking tongue 511 at one end of the locking rod 51 is movably mounted on the other side of the limiting sleeve 61.

[0031] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 When the locking tongue 511 at one end of the locking rod 51 is installed in the bushing assembly 6, it locks the glove box cover 2 onto the box body 11; the actuator 4 pushes the push block and the locking tongue to move, causing the locking tongue to disengage from the limiting hole 62 of the limiting sleeve 61, thereby unlocking; the glove box can be unlocked by an electric actuator, improving the user experience.

[0032] The locking tongue and the push block are fitted with a clearance.

[0033] More specifically, the locking rod 51 is mounted on the lid 2, and the limiting sleeve 61 is mounted on one side of the box body 11. The lid 2 includes an outer plate 21 and an inner plate 22 connected to each other, with a cavity 23 provided between the outer plate 21 and the inner plate 22, and the locking rod 51 is installed in the cavity 23. Specifically, after the locking rod is installed in the cavity, the outer plate 21 and the inner plate 22 are welded together. In one specific embodiment, this can reduce the problem of abnormal noise when the locking rod is struck, and improve user satisfaction.

[0034] A tension spring 512 is provided on the inner side of the box cover 2, and one end of the tension spring 512 is connected to the locking rod 51. The tension spring 512 is used to pull the locking rod 51 and the locking tongue to move outward, so that the locking tongue returns to its original position and locks the box cover.

[0035] Specifically, the cover 2 is provided with a first mounting base 517, the locking rod 51 is provided with a second mounting base 518, and the two ends of the tension spring 512 are respectively mounted on the first mounting base 517 and the second mounting base 518. The cover 2 is provided with at least one guide member 513, and the locking rod 51 is movably mounted on the guide member 513.

[0036] One side of the latch 511 is provided with a chamfer 514. When the cover is closed, the chamfer 514 cooperates with the bushing assembly, allowing the latch to overcome the tension of the tension spring and enter the limiting sleeve. A guide groove 24 is provided on the side wall of the cover 2, and the latch 511 extends into the guide groove 24. The locking rod 51 is provided with a limiting member 515 that cooperates with the guide groove 24 on the side near the latch 511, limiting the displacement of the latch.

[0037] The locking rod 51 includes a first locking rod 52 and a second locking rod 53 spaced apart. A rotating shaft 55 is rotatably mounted between the first locking rod 52 and the second locking rod 53. Grooves 516 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the first locking rod 52 and the second locking rod 53. A transmission boss 551 that mates with the grooves 516 is provided on the outer side of the rotating shaft 55. More specifically, the rotating shaft 55 is mounted on the cover 2 via a pressure plate 552 and bolts.

[0038] When the actuator drives one locking lever to move, it drives the other locking lever to move via the rotating shaft and its transmission boss 551. The two locking levers move in opposite directions, resulting in the locking tongues of both locking levers disengaging from their respective limiting sleeves. Using two locking levers improves the locking effect of the box lid and enhances the user experience.

[0039] like Figure 2 The actuator 4 has a transmission rod 42 on its output push head 41, and the push block 43 is installed at one end of the transmission rod 42; the actuator 4 is installed on the outside of the housing 11. This reduces the number of components installed in the cavity 23, reduces weight and volume, facilitates power connection, improves the user experience, and allows for larger storage space in the glove box.

[0040] This utility model also provides a glove box equipped with the above-mentioned unlocking transmission mechanism.

[0041] Compared with the original product, the glove box of this utility model has expanded the storage space and reduced the knocking noise of the locking bar, effectively improving the user's comfort.

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
