Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a handrail box device and a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the armrest box is equipped with a retractable mechanism and a table. The table is mounted on the armrest box via the retractable mechanism. Because the retractable mechanism is movable, the table can be switched between a stored position inside the armrest box and a displayed position outside the armrest box. Thus, when a passenger needs to use the table, they can open the armrest box cover to move the table out of the armrest box and expose it in front of them (i.e., table function), allowing them to use the table for work, dining, or games. When the passenger does not need to use the table, they can move the table back into the armrest box and close the armrest box cover at the opening to hide the table. Simultaneously, the closed armrest cover also provides a place for the passenger's arm and elbow to rest (i.e., armrest function).

[0003] However, when using the table, the retractable parts continuously occupy the opening of the armrest box, preventing the armrest cover from closing properly and keeping it open. This prevents the armrest cover from functioning as a support for the passenger's arm. In other words, the armrest box technology in this case cannot simultaneously support both the table and armrest functions. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to propose an armrest box device and a vehicle, which aims to enable the armrest box device to support both table and armrest functions simultaneously.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the armrest box device proposed in this utility model includes:

[0006] An armrest box includes a box body and an armrest cover. The box body has a receiving cavity, and the armrest cover is movably covered on the opening of the receiving cavity.

[0007] A tabletop module includes a stowage component and a tabletop mounted on the stowage component. The stowage component is movably disposed within the armrest box, allowing the tabletop module to switch between a stowed position and a visible position. The armrest cover has a notch corresponding to the stowage component.

[0008] Decorative component, which is movably sealed to the notch of the cover plate;

[0009] In the exposed position, the unfolding component passes through the notch in the cover plate, the tabletop is exposed outside the armrest box, and the decorative component is detached from the notch in the cover plate; in the stored position, the tabletop and the unfolding component are housed in the receiving cavity, and the decorative component covers the notch in the cover plate.

[0010] In one embodiment, the decorative element is movably connected to the armrest box so as to be able to switch between a clearance position and a closed position; the armrest box device also includes a linkage structure, when the table module switches between a storage position and a display position, the decorative element is able to switch between a clearance position and a closed position by the action of the linkage structure, the clearance position corresponding to the display position, and the closed position corresponding to the storage position.

[0011] In one embodiment, the linkage structure includes a reset elastic element that connects the decorative element and the armrest box. During the process of the decorative element switching from the cover position to the avoidance position, the elastic potential energy of the reset elastic element increases.

[0012] In one embodiment, the linkage structure further includes a pushing part and a pushing part that cooperate with each other. The pushing part is disposed on the unfolding and retracting member, and the pushing part is disposed on the decorative member. During the process of the table module switching from the storage position to the exposure position, the pushing part pushes against the pushing part and causes the elastic potential energy of the reset elastic member to increase.

[0013] In one embodiment, the unfolding component is rotatably connected to the armrest box about a first axis, and the decorative component is rotatably connected to the armrest box about a second axis, wherein the first axis and the second axis are arranged in parallel.

[0014] In one embodiment, the first axis is located at one end of the receiving cavity in the length direction, and the cover plate notch is provided at the end edge of the armrest cover plate corresponding to the first axis.

[0015] In one embodiment, the second axis is located on the side of the first axis away from the receiving cavity and is disposed near the armrest cover, and the pushing part is disposed in the middle of the unfolding member;

[0016] In one embodiment, the armrest box further includes a base disposed in the receiving cavity, and the unfolding member is rotatably disposed on the upper end of the base.

[0017] In one embodiment, at the exposed position, the rotation angle of the decorative element is smaller than the rotation angle of the unfolding element.

[0018] In one embodiment, there are two handrail covers, which are distributed along the direction of the first axis and have notches on their facing sides. The notches are connected, and the handrail covers are rotatably mounted on the housing away from the side edge of the other handrail cover.

[0019] In one embodiment, one of the pushing part and the pushed part is configured as a groove structure, and the other is configured as a protrusion structure adapted to the groove structure, and is respectively disposed on the side facing the unfolding member and the decorative member, the protrusion structure being insertable into the groove structure.

[0020] In one embodiment, the decorative element includes the push-receiving portion, the decorative portion, and the swing arm portion connecting the decorative portion and the push-receiving portion. The decorative portion is used to cover the notch in the cover plate. The swing arm portion is rotatably disposed in the armrest box. The reset elastic element is configured as a torsion spring, and the straight arm of the torsion spring abuts against the side of the swing arm portion away from the receiving cavity.

[0021] In one embodiment, the torsion spring is configured as a double torsion spring, with the two spring bodies of the double torsion spring disposed on both sides of the axial direction of the decorative piece. The swing arm portion includes two intersecting swing arm segments, and the straight arm of the torsion spring is disposed in a positioning recess formed at the intersection of the two swing arm segments.

[0022] In one embodiment, one end of the box body is provided with a box body notch corresponding to the decorative part, the box body notch is connected to the receiving cavity and the cover plate notch, and the decorative part is at least partially exposed in the box body notch when the cover is in the closed position.

[0023] This utility model also proposes a vehicle that includes the aforementioned armrest box device.

[0024] In this invention, when an occupant needs to use the table, the armrest cover is opened to expose the entire opening of the receiving cavity. Then, the retractable component and table are operated so that the table module can be moved out through the opening of the receiving cavity, exposing the table outside the cavity for use. At this point, the armrest cover can be closed again at the opening of the receiving cavity, the notch in the cover providing clearance for the retractable component, allowing it to remain in the exposed position. Thus, the table is exposed to the outside to function as a table, while the armrest cover is closed again at the opening of the receiving cavity to function as an armrest, providing support for the occupant's arms and elbows. In other words, the armrest box device can simultaneously support both table and armrest functions. Attached Figure Description

[0049] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0050] It should be noted that if the embodiments of this utility model involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0051] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this utility model involve descriptions such as "first" or "second," these descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the use of "and / or" or "and / or" throughout the text includes three parallel solutions. For example, "A and / or B" includes solution A, solution B, or a solution where both A and B are satisfied simultaneously. Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0052] This utility model proposes an armrest box device that enables the armrest box device to simultaneously support both table and armrest functions. Application scenarios for the armrest box device provided in this utility model embodiment include, but are not limited to, vehicles, aircraft, and electric massage chairs. For ease of explanation, a vehicle will be used as an example below.

[0053] Please see Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment of this utility model, the armrest box device includes an armrest box 200 and a table module. The armrest box 200 includes a box body 210 and an armrest cover 220. The box body 210 is provided with a receiving cavity 201, and the armrest cover 220 is movably covered on the opening of the receiving cavity 201. The table module includes a folding component 300 and a table 100 installed on the folding component 300. The folding component 300 is movably disposed in the armrest box 200 so that the table module can switch between a storage position and a display position. The armrest cover 220 is provided with a cover notch 221 corresponding to the folding component 300.

[0054] Please refer to the following: Figures 8 to 10 Optionally, the armrest box device also includes a decorative element 400, which is movably sealed to the cover notch 221; in the exposed position, the unfolding element 300 passes through the cover notch 221, the table 100 is exposed outside the armrest box 200, and the decorative element 400 is detached from the cover notch 221; in the stored position, the table 100 and the unfolding element 300 are housed in the receiving cavity 201, and the decorative element 400 covers the cover notch 221.

[0055] Specifically, when an occupant needs to use the table 100, the armrest cover 220 is opened to fully expose the opening of the receiving cavity 201. Then, the retractable component 300 and the table 100 are operated so that the table module can be moved out through the opening of the receiving cavity 201, exposing the table 100 outside the receiving cavity 201 for use. At this time, the armrest cover 220 can be closed back onto the opening of the receiving cavity 201. The notch 221 in the cover provides clearance for the retractable component 300, allowing it to remain in the exposed position. In this way, the table 100 is exposed to the outside to perform its function, while the armrest cover 220 is closed back onto the opening of the receiving cavity 201 to perform its armrest function, providing support for the occupant's arms and elbows. That is, the armrest box device can simultaneously support both the table 100 function and the armrest function.

[0056] When the occupant does not need to use the table 100, the armrest cover 220 is reopened to fully expose the opening of the receiving cavity 201. Then, the retractable component 300 and the table 100 are operated so that the table module can be re-retracted into the receiving cavity 201 through the opening of the receiving cavity 201. Then, the armrest cover 220 is closed again to conceal the table 100, and the armrest cover 220 provides a place for the occupant's arms and elbows to rest.

[0057] It should be noted that the decorative component 400 is movably sealed to the cover plate notch 221. This can mean that the decorative component 400 is assembled in a way that allows it to be completely detached from the cover plate notch 221, or that the decorative component 400 is movably connected to the cover plate notch 221, such as through a rotating or sliding connection. In the former case, the decorative component 400 is completely removed before the tabletop 100 is exposed (the decorative component 400 can be temporarily placed inside the armrest box 200) so that the cover plate notch 221 can be used for the unfolding component 300 to pass through. After the tabletop 100 is stored, the decorative component 400 is reinstalled, which can seal the cover plate notch 221, so that the top surface of the armrest box 200 is intact and without gaps, and the receiving cavity 201 is in a closed state. This prevents items from accidentally falling into the receiving cavity 201 through the cover plate notch 221, and also prevents the internal structure of the armrest box 200 from being exposed and affecting its aesthetics.

[0058] Optionally, the decorative element 400 is movably connected to the armrest box 200, allowing it to switch between a clearance position and a closed position. The armrest box device also includes a linkage structure. When the table panel module switches between a storage position and a display position, the decorative element 400, acting on the linkage structure, can switch between a clearance position and a closed position, with the clearance position corresponding to the display position and the closed position corresponding to the storage position. Thus, the linkage structure allows the user to simultaneously switch the position of the decorative element 400 by only performing the position switching operation of the table panel 100, thereby simplifying the operation steps of the armrest box device and improving the ease of use of the table panel 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the linkage structure may not be provided, and the position switching operations of the table panel 100 and the decorative element 400 may be performed separately.

[0059] Please see Figures 8 to 10 Optionally, the linkage structure includes a reset elastic element 500, which connects the decorative element 400 and the armrest box 200. During the process of the decorative element 400 switching from the closed position to the avoidance position, the elastic potential energy of the reset elastic element 500 increases. It can be understood that if the external force constraining the decorative element 400 to the avoidance position is removed, the elastic force of the reset elastic element 500 can drive the decorative element 400 to automatically reset to the closed position, thereby saving the user the operation of switching the decorative element 400 from the avoidance position to the closed position, thus improving the ease of use of the device. Furthermore, this solution has a simple structure and is easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the reset elastic element 500 may not be provided. For example, the linkage structure may be configured as a crank-connecting rod mechanism connected between the unfolding / retracting element 300 and the decorative element 400; or, the linkage structure may be configured as a push-pull rod, with its two ends connected to the unfolding / retracting element 300 and the decorative element 400, respectively.

[0060] Please refer to the following: Figure 11 and Figure 12 Optionally, the linkage structure also includes a cooperating pushing part 301 and a pushing part 410. The pushing part 301 is located on the unfolding / retracting component 300, and the pushing part 410 is located on the decorative component 400. During the process of the table module switching from the storage position to the exposure position, the pushing part 301 pushes against the pushing part 410, thereby increasing the elastic potential energy of the reset elastic component 500. In this way, the structure is simple and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the pushing part 301 and the pushing part 410 may not be provided, and the decorative component 400 and the unfolding / retracting component 300 may be directly fixed as one piece.

[0061] It should be noted that the pushing part 301 pushing against the pushed part 410 does not specifically mean that the pushing is continuous throughout the entire stroke. It could also mean that there is no contact in the first part of the stroke, and contact and pushing only begin in the latter part. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 12In this embodiment, during the process of the table module switching from the storage position to the exposure position, the pushing part 301 initially does not contact the pushed part 410, and then contacts the pushed part 410 at a certain position, continuously pushing the pushed part 410 to switch the decorative part 400 to the avoidance position. That is, in the exposure position, the rotation angle of the decorative part 400 is smaller than the rotation angle of the unfolding part 300. In this way, when the unfolding part 300 rotates 90°, the decorative part 400 only rotates a smaller angle, such as 50°, 60°, or 70°, thereby reducing the degree of encroachment of the decorative part 400 on the interior space when in the avoidance position. For example, in the embodiment where the decorative part 400 is flipped towards the rear seat, the decorative part 400 with a smaller rotation angle can reduce its intrusion on the rear space, which is beneficial to ensuring the comfort of the rear space.

[0062] Please see Figure 12 Optionally, the unfolding / retracting component 300 is rotatably connected to the armrest box 200 about a first axis, and the decorative component 400 is rotatably connected to the armrest box 200 about a second axis, with the first and second axes arranged in parallel. Specifically, during the process of the table module flipping from the storage position upwards to the exposed position, the flipping force applied by the user to the table module can be transmitted to the decorative component 400, allowing the decorative component 400 to overcome the elastic force of the reset elastic component 500 and flip to the avoidance position, so that the unfolding / retracting component 300 can be exposed in the cavity opening area of ​​the receiving cavity 201 corresponding to the cover notch 221. During the process of the table module flipping from the exposed position downwards to the storage position, the reset elastic component 500 causes the decorative component 400 to automatically rotate downwards to re-close in the cover notch 221, thereby maintaining the integrity of the upper surface of the armrest box 200. In this way, the position switching of the unfolding / retracting component 300 and the decorative component 400 is achieved by rotation, which is simple in structure and easy to operate. Of course, in other embodiments, the unfolding and retracting component 300 and the decorative component 400 may slide in the same direction, or the unfolding and retracting component 300 may switch positions by sliding and the decorative component 400 may switch positions by flipping.

[0063] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Optionally, the first axis is located at one end of the receiving cavity 201 along its length, and the cover notch 221 is located at the end edge of the armrest cover 220 corresponding to the first axis. This allows for full utilization of the length of the receiving cavity 201 to house the table module, and the location of the cover notch 221 at the end edge of the armrest cover 220 facilitates its manufacturing. Of course, in other embodiments, the first axis may be located at the middle of the receiving cavity 201 along its length.

[0064] Please see Figure 12Optionally, the second axis is located on the side of the first axis away from the receiving cavity 201 and is positioned near the armrest cover 220, with the pushing part 301 located in the middle of the unfolding member 300. This reduces the rotation radius of the decorative member 400, thereby reducing its structural dimensions. Furthermore, since the pushing part 301 is located in the middle of the unfolding member 300, the resistance torque exerted by the decorative member 400 on the unfolding member 300 during the tabletop 100's upward movement is smaller, thus saving the operating force required to flip the tabletop 100 and improving the ease of use of the device.

[0065] Please see Figure 8 Optionally, the armrest box 200 also includes a base 230 disposed in the receiving cavity 201, and the unfolding / folding component 300 is rotatably disposed on the upper end of the base 230. This reduces the rotation radius of the unfolding / folding component 300, thereby reducing its structural and storage dimensions. Secondly, the additional base 230 improves the installation reliability of the unfolding / folding component 300 and simplifies the structure of the box body 210, thus reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the box body 210. Of course, in other embodiments, the base 230 may be omitted, and the unfolding / folding component 300 may be directly rotatably disposed on the box body 210.

[0066] Please see Figure 3 Optionally, two armrest covers 220 are provided, distributed along the direction of the first axis, and each has a cover notch 221 on its facing sides. The two cover notches 221 are connected, and the side edge of the armrest cover 220 away from the other armrest cover 220 is rotatably mounted on the housing 210. In this case, the axis of rotation of the armrest cover 220 extends in the front-rear direction. This facilitates the opening and closing of the armrest cover 220, especially when the unfolding member 300 is already erected in the receiving cavity 201 area corresponding to the cover notch 221. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be only one armrest cover 220, or the axis of rotation of the armrest cover 220 may extend in the left-right direction and be located at the end of the housing 210 away from the decorative member 400.

[0067] Please see Figures 10 to 12Optionally, one of the pushing part 301 and the pushing part 410 is configured as a groove structure, and the other is configured as a protrusion structure adapted to the groove structure, and they are respectively disposed on the side facing the unfolding member 300 and the decorative member 400. The protrusion structure can be inserted into the groove structure. Specifically, in this embodiment, the pushing part 301 is a groove structure, and the pushing part 410 is a protrusion structure. In this way, by using the groove structure and the protrusion structure in combination, the positioning and engagement of the pushing part 301 and the pushing part 410 can be achieved, avoiding the unfolding member 300 and the decorative member 400 from swaying in the left and right direction. Of course, in other embodiments, both the pushing part 301 and the pushing part 410 may be protrusion structures, or one of the pushing part 301 and the pushing part 410 may be a protrusion structure, and the other may be a planar structure.

[0068] Please see Figures 10 to 12 Optionally, the decorative element 400 includes a push-receiving portion 410, a decorative portion 420, and a swing arm portion 430 connecting the decorative portion 420 and the push-receiving portion 410. The decorative portion 420 is used to cover the cover plate notch 221. The swing arm portion 430 is rotatably mounted on the armrest box 200. The reset elastic element 500 is configured as a torsion spring, with the straight arm 502 of the torsion spring abutting against the side of the swing arm portion 430 away from the receiving cavity 201. In this way, the torsion spring enables the decorative element 400 to automatically flip and reset to the covered position, which is simple in structure and easy to implement. Of course, in other embodiments, the reset elastic element 500 can also be a tension spring or a compression spring, for example, in an embodiment where the decorative element 400 is slidably mounted on the armrest box 200.

[0069] Please see Figure 9 Optionally, the torsion spring is configured as a double torsion spring, with two spring bodies 501 respectively disposed on both axial sides of the decorative member 400. The swing arm portion 430 includes two intersecting swing arm segments 431, and the straight arm 502 of the torsion spring is disposed within the positioning recess 432 formed at the intersection of the two swing arm segments 431. Thus, by using the positioning recess 432 to constrain the straight arm 502 of the torsion spring, the positional stability and connection reliability of the straight arm 502 of the torsion spring on the decorative member 400 can be improved. Furthermore, using a double torsion spring can increase its elastic force and improve its structural stability. Of course, in other embodiments, the torsion spring can also be configured as a single torsion spring.

[0070] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 Optionally, one end of the housing 210 has a housing notch 211 corresponding to the decorative element 400. The housing notch 211 communicates with both the receiving cavity 201 and the cover notch 221, and the decorative part 420 is at least partially exposed in the housing notch 211 when in the closed position. In this way, by providing the housing notch 211, the rotation radius of the decorative element 400 can be reduced, and the smoothness of the rotation of the decorative element 400 can be improved. Of course, in other embodiments, the housing notch 211 may not be provided.

[0071] Optionally, the base 230 is located in the area corresponding to the notch 211 in the receiving cavity 201, and the lower end of the swing arm 430 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the base 230. This results in a simple structure and easy installation. Furthermore, the additional base 230 improves the installation reliability of the decorative piece 400 and simplifies the structure of the housing 210, thus reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the housing 210. Of course, in other embodiments, the swing arm 430 can also be directly rotatably mounted on the housing 210.

[0072] Optionally, the armrest box device is configured as a secondary instrument panel device, and the armrest cover 220 is used for the driver's elbow to rest. In this embodiment, the table module can unfold to the right for use by the passenger in the front passenger seat. Figure 6 and Figure 7 The table module shown is exposed and in the unfolded state, at which time the armrest cover 220 is closed on the box 210; Figure 4 The table module shown is housed in the receiving cavity 201, and the armrest cover 220 is closed on the box 210; Figure 5 for Figure 4 The diagram shown is a schematic of the structure after the armrest cover 220 is concealed.

[0073] Of course, in other embodiments, the armrest box device can also be applied to other products, such as to the rear seats, where it is located on the left or right side of the rear seats and serves as an armrest for the rear seats. Alternatively, it can be installed on door panel devices; this application does not specifically limit the application.

[0074] Optionally, the armrest box device also includes a support member 600, the upper end of the unfolding member 300 is rotatably connected to the support member 600, one of the tabletops 100 is slidably disposed on the support member 600, the unfolding member 300 has a folded state (corresponding to the storage position) and an upright state (corresponding to the exposed position), and the support member 600 has an upright state and a flat state.

[0075] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 11 In the figure, the unfolding component 300 is in a flat position, the support component 600 is in an upright position, and the table 100 is in a stacked position. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 8 The display unit 300 is in an upright position, the support unit 600 is in a vertical position, and the table 100 is in a stacked position. Figure 13 The display and collection component 300 is in an upright position, the support component 600 is in a flat position, and the table 100 is in a stacked position and in the recycling position.

Figure 13 The table 100 shown is located at the left limit position of the sliding stroke, corresponding to the retraction position; Figure 14 The table 100 shown is located at the right limit of its sliding stroke, corresponding to the usage position.

[0079] Specifically, when the passenger in the front passenger seat wants to use the tray table 100, assuming that the tray table 100 is currently retracted and concealed within the armrest storage box 200, such as... Figure 4 As shown; under this premise, first flip and open the armrest cover 220 to expose the receiving cavity 201 and the table 100 inside. At this time, the table 100, the support member 600 and the unfolding member 300 are in the following positions. Figure 5 and Figure 11 As shown; then rotate the unfolding / retracting component 300 to an upright position, at which point the tabletop 100, support component 600, and unfolding / retracting component 300 are in the following postures. Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown; next, rotate the support 600 to a flat position, at which point the tabletop 100 and the support 600 are in the following postures. Figure 14 As shown, the tabletop 100 is in the retracted position and stacked; then the tabletop 100 is moved to the right to the usage position, at which point the tabletop 100 and the support 600 are in the following postures. Figure 15As shown; finally, flip the upper tabletop 100 to the right to unfold it. At this time, the tabletop 100, support 600, and unfolding / retracting component 300 are in the following positions. Figure 15 As shown. This completes the full unfolding of the tabletop 100. It can be understood that the retraction of the tabletop 100 is the reverse of the unfolding operation, so it will not be described again here.
