[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described below are merely illustrative of this utility model. Key terms that need attention in these descriptions, including "locking tongue," "toggle button," "handle," and "positioning protrusion," are only for the convenience of describing and simplifying the utility model, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the utility model.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] See Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a car glove box with a retractable hook, including a box body 1, a box door 2 and a hook kit 4. The box door 2 has a placement groove 2a in the middle of its inner side, and a positioning hole 2b is provided at the edge of the groove 2a outside the groove opening. The placement groove 2a also has a positioning protrusion 2c. The box door 2 is hinged to the box body 1 to facilitate its opening and closing. The box door and box body 1 are equipped with a box lock, which includes a toggle button 5, a latch 3, and a latch opening. The latch 3 has a step and an inclined surface at its outer end to facilitate closing the box door 2. The latch 3 is movably installed in the interlayer of the box door 2. The interlayer has a step, and the latch 3 is positioned by the step and elastically extended and retracted by a spring. The latch opening corresponding to the latch 3 is set on the box body 1. The latch 3 can be locked or unlocked by elastically extending and retracting corresponding to the latch opening to close or open the box door 2. The toggle button 5 is connected to the latch 3. Manually moving the toggle button 5 can elastically retract the latch 3 to open the box door 2. The hook kit 4 is installed in the placement slot 2a of the box door 2. It includes a hook 4a and a folding arm 4b. The folding arm 4b corresponds to the positioning hole 2b on the box door 2 and is provided with a positioning pin 4b1, forming a hole and pin concave-convex positioning structure. The hook 4a is provided with a handle 4a1 and is hinged to one end of the folding arm 4b. The other end of the folding arm 4b is hinged to the box door 2.
[0026] When using this utility model, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 9 Open the glove box door 2, move the handle 4a1 of hook 4a, rotate to open the hook assembly, which is hinged and folded in the slot of the glove box door 2, so that hook 4a and folding arm 4b are located on the outside of the glove box door 2 for maximum opening. The handle 4a1 of hook 4a rests against the outside of the glove box door 2, and the positioning pin 4b1 of folding arm 4b is positioned in the positioning hole 2b on the glove box door 2; see also Figure 6 and Figure 10When the door 2 is closed, the latch 3 and latch opening lock the door 2 to the body 1. At this time, the hook 4a of the open hook kit can be used to hang plastic bags, canvas bags, handbags, etc., for hanging storage. The handle 4a1 of the hook 4a abuts against the outside of the door 2, and the positioning pin 4b1 of the folding arm 4b is positioned in the positioning hole 2b on the door 2, which provides good stable support and positioning. When the hanging storage is finished, see Figure 4 and Figure 8 The glove box door 2 can be opened, and the hook 4a and folding arm 4b can be folded back by rotating the handle 4a1 and placed in the placement slot 2a of the door 2. The positioning protrusion 2c in the placement slot 2a of the door 2 then presses against the hook 4a to fix the hook assembly 4 in place. See also Figure 3 and Figure 7 When the box door 2 is closed, the entire set of hooks 4, which is fixedly positioned in the slot 2b inside the box door 2, is concealed inside the glove box and does not interfere with other items stored in the glove box.
[0027] To cope with bumps during vehicle travel, the hook kit of this utility model has a reliable and stable positioning structure for both the hook 4a and the folding arm 4b. The hook 4a includes two positioning structures: its hinge part and the handle 4a1. The folding arm 4b includes two positioning structures: its hinge part and the positioning pin 4b1. The positioning hole 2b on the door 2 and the hole and pin 4b1 have a concave-convex positioning structure, which is relatively concealed and does not affect the aesthetics.
[0028] The hook 4a of this utility model also adopts a dual-material injection molding design. The main body of the hook 4a is made of hard plastic, while its handle 4a1 is made of soft rubber, and both are integrally injection molded. When opening the hook kit, it is more comfortable to operate the handle 4a1. During use, the handle 4a1 rests against the glove box door 2. Compared to hard plastic, the soft rubber handle 4a1 can effectively reduce scratches on the glove box door 2 caused by the hook during long-term use. During driving, when the car bumps, the soft rubber of the handle 4a1 can greatly reduce the abnormal noise caused by the hook 4a shaking compared to hard plastic.
[0029] Example 2
[0030] This embodiment is basically similar to Embodiment 1, such as... Figure 11 As shown, the difference lies in that, in this embodiment, the hook 4a is equipped with an anti-detachment spring 4a1, which is located at the hook opening of the hook 4a. The anti-detachment spring 4a1 is integrally injection molded with the hook 4a, eliminating the need for assembly. The anti-detachment spring 4a1 is a thin sheet, slightly thicker at the base and thinner at the end, utilizing the elastic deformation properties of plastic to function as a spring. Alternatively, a two-material injection molding design can be used, in which the anti-detachment spring 4a1 is made of soft rubber material, facilitating the placement and removal of items. Since vehicle movement easily generates bumps, the anti-detachment spring 4a1 can prevent items from detaching when used for suspended storage.
[0031] The above description is only a general embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there are various other embodiments with modifications and variations, which will not be elaborated here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model are included within the protection scope claimed by this utility model.
