[0002] A Chinese utility model patent with application number CN202021605216.8, entitled "A Rear Armrest Partition Panel," discloses a rear armrest partition panel, including a main panel; a sloping plate connected to one short side of the main panel; the sloping plate has a wave-like structure; a slot is formed in the middle of the sloping plate; a fixing hole is formed on the short side of the main panel away from the sloping plate; a groove is formed by a downward indentation in the middle of the main panel; side plates are symmetrically arranged on the long side of the main panel; a mounting arm is connected to the side plate away from the sloping plate; and a rotating hole is formed on the mounting arm. The wave-like structure of the sloping plate improves the comfort of passengers placing their arms, the groove can be used to place items to prevent them from falling during the journey, the slot facilitates the closing and locking of the armrest partition panel, making it convenient for people to place items or their arms, and the mounting arm can quickly open the partition panel to place items inside the armrest. This utility model has a simple structure, reasonable design, and high comfort, effectively improving the passenger's riding experience. However, this invention cannot solve the problem of ink smudging during the production of IMR process products, so the structure of this invention needs further improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a simple structure for the rear armrest cover of a car that can solve the ink flushing problem during the production of IMR process products, in light of the above-mentioned existing technology.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: the rear armrest cover structure of this automobile includes a plate that can be connected to the rear armrest of the automobile, characterized in that: the plate is a decorative plate with a pattern made on the surface of the plate by IMR injection molding process, and the end of the plate is provided with an excess protrusion that can be milled off before installation. The length of the excess protrusion is 2-5mm, and the excess protrusion is integrally injection molded with the plate.

[0005] As an improvement, the plate can preferably be frame-shaped, and the plate has a through hole in the middle that can fit the storage cavity.

[0006] Further improvements include the option that the four apex corners of the through holes in the plate are all rounded corners. This facilitates processing and reduces processing difficulty.

[0007] As an improvement, the bottom surface of the plate can preferably have plate protrusions spaced apart to interlock with the grooves of the rear armrest of a car. This makes interlocking convenient and installation simpler.

[0008] Further improvements include the provision of reinforcing ribs on the protruding outer wall of the plate to increase structural strength.

[0009] As an improvement, the middle of the side of the plate can preferably be provided with a notch that can be adapted to the buttons of the rear armrest of a car.

[0010] As an improvement, the outer edge of the plate can preferably be a downwardly convex flange. This results in a better fit.

[0011] Further improvements include a preferred rounded angle between the plate body and the plate body flange. The sidewalls are smooth, making it safer to use.

[0012] As an improvement, the bottom surface of the plate may preferably be provided with reinforcing ribs to increase structural strength.

[0013] As a further improvement, the reinforcing ribs can preferably be arranged in an alternating pattern, further enhancing the structural strength.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the plate is a decorative plate with patterns made on its surface by IMR injection molding process, and the surface has ink patterns and a beautiful appearance; the ends of the plate are provided with excess protrusions that can be milled off before installation. The length of the excess protrusions is 2-5mm. The excess protrusions are integrally injection molded with the plate. In the initial injection position of the IMR process, the ink is easily uneven due to high temperature and high pressure, which cannot effectively cover the surface of the initial position of the product. However, after setting the excess protrusions, it is only necessary to remove the excess protrusions at the initial position after processing to ensure that the remaining part is evenly covered with ink and achieve a good surface pattern effect. The surface processing efficiency of this structure is high and the effect is good. Attached Figure Description
