Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, specifically a cup holder assembly. Background Technology

[0002] As an important structural element in automotive interior design, cup holders serve multiple functions, including enhancing the passenger experience and ensuring driving safety. Currently, horizontally retractable cup holders consist of an upper cup holder ring, a latch, and a housing. The upper cup holder ring slides along the housing, and the latch is mounted on the front end of the upper cup holder ring. The latch retracts by rotating when not extended and extends by rotating when needed. The current latch and upper cup holder ring are installed in the following ways:

[0003] 1. First, assemble the pin, and then assemble the jaws from the side. The knurling on the pin should not be on the bottom. If it is on the bottom, the pin cannot be inserted into the upper cup holder ring. Since there is no knurling on the bottom of the pin, there is no engagement force between the pin and the upper cup holder ring, which affects the rotation performance of the jaws.

[0004] 2. After the chuck is inserted from the side, the screw is installed. Excessive clamping force between the screw and the chuck causes significant friction on the upper contact surface due to the screw's tightening, greatly affecting the chuck's rotation. Furthermore, the screw is too close to the inner wall of the upper cup holder ring, causing interference between the torque gun head and the upper cup holder ring, preventing proper screw driving. Manual screw driving lacks torque control, posing a risk of stripping the threads or not tightening them properly. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0041] 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.

[0042] As shown in the figure, this utility model discloses a cup holder assembly, including an upper cup holder ring 1, a claw fixing component 2, a claw 3, and a housing 4. The upper cup holder ring 1 is slidably mounted on the housing 4. The upper cup holder ring 1 has claw fixing component mounting grooves 103 at both ends of its front side. The claw fixing component 2 has a claw mounting groove 201 at its front end and a claw torsion spring mounting groove 202. The claw holder ring 1 has a mounting post 101 and a mounting post 202. The claw fixing component 2 has a mounting groove 202 for mounting a torsion spring. The mounting post 1 and mounting post 2 have corresponding through holes 1 203 and 204. Mounting post 1 101 passes through through hole 1 203, and mounting post 2 102 passes through through hole 2 204. A fixing pin 5 is installed at mounting post 1 101, and a screw 6 is installed at mounting post 2 102. Both the fixing pin 5 and the screw 6 are located at the lower end of the top surface of the claw support ring 1. One end of the claw torsion spring 7 is located at the claw torsion spring mounting groove 202, and the other end of the claw torsion spring 7 is located at the claw mounting groove.

[0043] This utility model first installs one end of the claw 3 on the claw fixing member 2, then inserts the combination of the claw fixing member 2 and the claw 3 into the claw fixing member mounting groove 103 of the upper cup holder ring 1, then inserts the fixing member pin 5, and then drives in the screw 6.

[0044] This utility model avoids directly installing the claw 3 on the claw fixing part 2 by adding a claw fixing part 2, which facilitates assembly. At the same time, the claw 3 can be extended and retracted very easily without affecting the rotation performance of the claw 3.

[0045] In one embodiment of this utility model, a movable limiting groove 2011 is provided at the rear end of the claw mounting groove 201. The movable limiting groove 2011 has a limiting surface A and a limiting surface B. The end of the claw 3 is located at the movable limiting groove 2011.

A claw torsion spring 7 is installed at the connecting pin 8, and the other end of the claw torsion spring 7 is attached to the limiting surface B. The limiting surface A and the limiting surface B are used to limit the rotation of the claw 3. When retracted, the claw torsion spring 7 continuously applies pressure to the claw 3. When extension is required, the claw torsion spring 7 applies force to the claw 3, and the claw 3 completes the rotation, thus completing the extension action.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the claw 3 is provided with a claw torsion spring through groove 301, and the two ends of the claw torsion spring 7 pass through the claw torsion spring through groove 301 respectively.

A rack 9 is provided on one side of the guide groove 401, and a gear 10 is installed at the upper end of the upper cup holder ring 1. The gear 10 meshes with the rack 9. The guide groove and the gear 10 enable the upper cup holder ring 1 to move smoothly in a straight line.

[0048] In one embodiment of this utility model, coil springs 11 are installed on both sides of the rear end of the upper cup holder ring 1. One end of the coil spring 11 is connected to the housing 4, and two coil springs 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide groove 402. The coil springs 11 are power sources and will not be described in detail here. The application of coil springs in cup holders is a conventional design in this field.

[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, a locking block 111 is provided at the lower middle of the upper cup holder ring 1. The locking block 111 is located at the guide groove 402. A baffle 12 is installed at the front end of the locking block. The baffle 12 has a bent structure. The upper cup holder ring 1 has an inclined limiting surface 3C, which corresponds to the front end of the baffle 12. The locking block 111 moves at the guide groove 402, so that the top and bottom of the upper cup holder ring 1 move smoothly. When the baffle 12 contacts the limiting surface 3C, the upper cup holder ring 1 stops moving.

[0050] In one embodiment of this utility model, a limiting block 41 is provided on the lower front side of the shell 4, and a limiting groove 42 is provided at the front end of the limiting block 41.
