Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of car cup holders, and more particularly to a pull-button structure on a cup holder decorative panel. Background Technology
[0002] New energy vehicles use batteries to drive motors, eliminating the need for internal combustion engines and transmissions. Therefore, the space previously occupied by a gear lever can be replaced with a knob for adjusting forward / reverse movement, parking, and starting / stopping. Control buttons previously located around the driver's cabin can also be moved to the gearshift console, freeing up space for larger cup holders and storage compartments. However, the smooth surface of this knob makes it slippery to grip and prone to excessive rotation; therefore, this design requires further improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a pull buckle structure on the decorative plate of a cup holder that has high surface friction, a firm grip, and is easy to twist, 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 pull-button structure on the cup holder decorative panel includes a plug-in seat, an installation groove is provided on the cup holder platform, the plug-in seat is inserted into the installation groove, the top of the plug-in seat extends out of the installation groove, a decorative panel is covered on the top of the cup holder platform, a decorative panel notch is provided on the decorative panel, and the plug-in seat is fitted into the decorative panel notch. The characteristic is that: the plug-in seat is provided with a knob that can adjust the car gear by rotation and control the car start and stop by pressing and pulling, the knob is connected to the car's control circuit board through a circuit, and a knob cover is fixed on the knob, the top view projection of the knob cover is a regular polygon.
[0005] As an improvement, the bottom of the knob can preferably be provided with a knob protrusion, and the knob cover is fitted onto the outer wall of the knob and fixed to the knob with glue, with the bottom of the knob cover abutting against the knob protrusion. The structure is more stable when pressed.
[0006] A further improvement is made by preferably providing an annular limiting groove on the top of the knob cover, with a limiting ring fitted and fixed onto the groove. The limiting ring is then secured to the knob cover with adhesive. This design prevents the knob from easily coming loose during pulling, resulting in a more robust structure.
[0007] A further improvement is made by preferably having protrusions spaced apart on the inner wall of the limiting ring, each protrusion corresponding to and interlocking with a knob limiting groove located on the top of the knob. This results in a more robust structure.
[0008] As a further improvement, the top of the knob cover can preferably be provided with a cover through hole, and a top cover plate is placed on the cover through hole. The top cover plate is connected to the knob by adhesive. This facilitates installation and makes the structure more robust.
[0009] As an improvement, the knob cover can preferably be a transparent cover made of acrylic material. This is more aesthetically pleasing, waterproof, corrosion-resistant, and extends service life.
[0010] Further improvements include ensuring that the sharp angles of the knob cover are rounded to avoid hurting the user's hands. This prevents injury and improves usability.
[0011] As an improvement, buttons can preferably be provided on the sockets on the left and right sides of the knob, respectively, making it more convenient to use.
[0012] Further improvements could include a manual control button for the air blowing mode, an automatic air blowing adjustment button, an air conditioning switch button, an internal circulation switch button, a windshield defroster button, and a driving mode switching button. This provides more diverse functions and greater ease of use.
[0013] As an improvement, the sidewall of the connector may preferably have connecting lugs spaced apart, and connecting through holes are provided on the connecting lugs. The connecting lugs are fixed to the cup holder by screws passing through the connecting through holes. This makes the connection more secure.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the top view projection of the knob cover is a regular polygon, and the surface friction is much greater than that of the knob's arc surface. Therefore, the user can firmly hold or pinch the knob cover to avoid slipping and make it easier to turn. The top view projection of the knob cover is a regular polygon, which makes it easier for the user to understand the range of rotation and avoids excessive rotation at one time, resulting in better performance.

[0021] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the pull-button structure on the cup holder decorative panel in this embodiment includes a connector 1. A mounting groove 21 is provided on the cup holder 2, and the connector 1 is inserted into the mounting groove 21. The top of the connector 1 extends out of the mounting groove 21. A decorative panel 3 covers the top of the cup holder 2, and a decorative panel notch is provided on the decorative panel 3. The connector 1 fits into the decorative panel notch. A knob 4 is provided on the connector 1, which can adjust the car gear position by rotation and control the car's start and stop by pressing and pulling. The knob 4 is connected to the car's control circuit board via wiring. A knob cover 5 is fixed to the knob 4. The top view of the knob cover 5 is a regular polygon. A knob protrusion is provided at the bottom of the knob 4. The knob cover 5 is fitted onto the outer wall of the knob and fixed to the knob 4 with glue. The bottom of the knob cover 5 abuts against the knob protrusion. A ring-shaped limiting groove 51 is provided on the top of the knob cover 5. A limiting ring 6 is fitted and fixed on the limiting groove 51 and is fixed to the knob cover 5 with glue. Protrusions are distributed at intervals on the inner wall of the limiting ring 6. The protrusions correspond one-to-one with the knob limiting groove 41 located on the top of the knob and are inserted together. A cover hole is provided on the top of the knob cover 5. A top cover plate 52 is placed on the cover hole and is connected to the knob 4 with glue.
[0023] The knob cover 5 is a transparent cover made of acrylic material. All sharp corners of the knob cover 5 are rounded to avoid hurting the user's hands.
