[0039] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a car seat armrest structure, including:

[0041] Mounting mechanism 1, as the basic fixed component of the entire handrail structure, is rotatably mounted on the storage box;

[0042] The sealing cover 2, as the closed structure of the storage box, is slidably installed on the mounting mechanism 1, and at least two support brackets 3 are installed on the sealing cover 2;

[0043] The support frame 3 is arranged in a grid pattern with two support shafts 4 and two support arms 5, and one support shaft 4 is rotatably mounted to the sealing cover 2;

[0044] The support cover 6 is rotatably mounted on the sealing cover 2 via the support frame 3. It is the actual contact surface used for arm support, and the support cover 6 is snapped into the inner groove of the sealing cover 2 when stored.

[0045] Locking mechanism 7 is installed on support cover 6. Locking mechanism 7 is used to lock the connection angle between support shaft 4 and support cover 6.

[0046] In this embodiment, the sealing cover 2 is slidably installed on the mounting mechanism 1 and serves as the sealing structure of the storage box. It not only provides sealing protection for the storage box but also provides an installation base for the support frame 3. The position of the support cover 6 can be adjusted according to usage needs. At least two support frames 3 installed on it are arranged in a grid pattern by two support shafts 4 and two support arms 5. One of the support shafts 4 is rotatably installed with the sealing cover 2, allowing the support cover 6 to rotate and adjust around the support shaft 4. The grid pattern enhances the stability of the support frame 3 and ensures the reliability of the support cover 6 when bearing weight. The support cover 6 is rotatably installed on the sealing cover 2 through the support frame 3. It serves as the contact surface for arm support. When stored, it is engaged with the inner groove of the sealing cover 2, which not only meets the arm support requirements but can also be stored inside the sealing cover 2 when not in use, saving interior space. The locking mechanism 7 is installed on the support cover 6 and can lock the connection angle between the support shaft 4 and the support cover 6, ensuring that the support cover 6 maintains a fixed angle during use and avoiding user experience due to shaking. This improves the practicality, comfort, and space utilization efficiency of the car seat armrest.

[0047] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the locking mechanism 7 includes:

[0048] The movable frame 71 is slidably installed in the inner groove of the support cover 6, and the movable frame 71 is provided with a positioning pin 72;

[0049] The ratchet 73 is coaxially mounted on the support shaft 4, which is rotatably connected to the support cover 6, and the positioning pin 72 is plugged into the inner groove of the ratchet 73.

[0050] The first spring 74 has its two ends attached to the inner groove walls of the movable frame 71 and the support cover 6, respectively.

[0051] The movable frame 71 is provided with an extension 75, and the extension 75 is provided with a groove;

[0052] In this embodiment, the movable frame 71 is slidably installed in the inner groove of the support cover 6. The positioning pin 72 on it is plugged and pulled into the inner groove of the ratchet 73 coaxially installed on the support shaft 4, which can lock the support cover 6 at different angle positions, thereby adjusting the support height of the support cover 6 and preventing it from shaking due to vibration or external force during use, ensuring the stability of the arm support. The two ends of the first spring 74 are respectively connected to the movable frame 71 and the inner groove wall of the support cover 6, providing a continuous insertion force for the positioning pin 72, ensuring the reliability of the locked state and preventing accidental unlocking. The extension 75 on the movable frame 71 is provided with a groove, which makes it easy for the operator to press or move the extension 75 to drive the movable frame 71 to compress the first spring 74, so that the positioning pin 72 disengages from the inner groove of the ratchet 73, easily realizing unlocking and angle adjustment, improving the comfort and reliability of the car seat armrest.

[0053] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 2 to 4As shown, the installation mechanism 1 includes:

[0054] Mounting base 11 has guide grooves symmetrically arranged at both ends;

[0055] Two sliders 12 are symmetrically installed in the inner cavity of the sealing cover 2, and the two sliders 12 are slidably installed in the guide grooves at both ends of the mounting base 11.

[0056] The resistance mechanism 13 is mounted on the mounting base 11 and is used to increase the sliding friction between the sealing cover 2 and the mounting base 11.

[0057] In this embodiment, the guide grooves symmetrically arranged at both ends of the mounting base 11 cooperate with the sliders 12 symmetrically installed in the inner cavity of the sealing cover 2 to provide precise guidance for the sliding of the sealing cover 2, ensuring that it will not deviate or get stuck during the sliding process, making the position adjustment of the support cover 6 more stable and smooth. The resistance mechanism 13 is installed on the mounting base 11, which can effectively increase the sliding friction between the sealing cover 2 and the mounting base 11, so that the sealing cover 2 remains fixed after being adjusted to the required position, avoiding the sealing cover 2 from sliding on its own due to external forces such as vehicle bumps, which would affect the use of the handrail.

[0058] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the resistance mechanism 13 includes:

[0059] Mounting component 13a is installed in the fixing groove of mounting base 11, and connecting component 13b is slidably installed in the groove cavity of mounting component 13a. A second spring 13c is installed on connecting component 13b.

[0060] Adjustment mechanism 13d is mounted on mounting part 13a, and adjustment mechanism 13d is connected to the other end of second spring 13c;

[0061] Ratchet 13e is installed on sealing cover 2, and connector 13b is slidably connected to ratchet 13e.

[0062] In this embodiment, the mounting component 13a is installed in the fixing groove of the mounting base 11, providing a mounting base for the internal components. The connecting component 13b, which is slidably installed in the groove, cooperates with the second spring 13c, so that the connecting component 13b is tightly fitted with the ratchet 13e under the elastic force of the second spring 13c, effectively increasing the resistance when the sealing cover 2 slides and preventing it from sliding on its own. The adjusting mechanism 13d is connected to the other end of the second spring 13c. The elastic force can be changed by adjusting the compression degree of the second spring 13c, thereby precisely adjusting the friction between the connecting component 13b and the ratchet 13e to meet the needs of different users for the sliding resistance of the sealing cover 2. When the sealing cover 2 slides, the connecting component 13b slides along the tooth shape of the ratchet 13e. Each tooth position forms a resistance point, ensuring that the sealing cover 2 can stably stay at any desired position during the sliding process. This resistance mechanism 13, through the combination of spring elasticity and ratchet structure, not only realizes the convenient adjustment of the sliding resistance of the sealing cover 2, but also ensures its positional stability during use.

[0063] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 4 to 5 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 13d includes:

[0064] The threaded post 13e1 is connected to the threaded through hole of the mounting part 13a;

[0065] The connecting block 13e2 is coaxially mounted on one end of the threaded post 13e1, and the connecting block 13e2 is connected to the second spring 13c;

[0066] An adjusting cap 13e3 is installed at the other end of the threaded post 13e1;

[0067] In this embodiment, the threaded post 13e1 engages with the threaded through hole of the mounting part 13a. Utilizing the high-precision characteristics of threaded transmission, rotating the threaded post 13e1 can drive the connecting block 13e2 to move axially, thereby precisely adjusting the compression degree of the second spring 13c. The connecting block 13e2 is coaxially mounted on one end of the threaded post 13e1 and connected to the second spring 13c, which can stably transmit the adjustment displacement of the threaded post 13e1 and ensure that the elastic force change of the second spring 13c is accurate and controllable. The adjusting cap 13e3 at the other end of the threaded post 13e1 provides a convenient force application point for the operator. The threaded post 13e1 can be easily driven to rotate by manually rotating the adjusting cap 13e3 without the need for complicated tools, greatly improving the convenience of the adjustment operation.

[0068] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the sealing cap 2 and the support cap 6 are respectively wrapped with protective layers;

[0069] In this embodiment, the protective layer of the sealing cover 2 can effectively resist external scratches, wear and corrosion, and extend the service life of the sealing cover 2. The protective layer of the support cover 6 directly acts on the arm contact area. On the one hand, its soft material can improve the comfort when the arm is supported and relieve the pressure of long-term contact. On the other hand, the protective layer can prevent scratches, dents and other damage from appearing on the surface of the support cover 6 during frequent use, keep its appearance clean and its structure intact, so that the car seat armrest can always maintain good performance and aesthetics during long-term use, and comprehensively improve the user experience.

[0070] The automotive seat armrest structure of this utility model can be used in various types of storage boxes;

[0071] Compared with existing new car seat armrest structures, the new car seat armrest structure of this utility model optimizes the user experience in many aspects, such as storage protection, ease of operation, and component durability, and greatly improves the applicability, reliability and user comfort of car seat armrests in different usage scenarios.

[0072] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
