[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention in any way.
[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4A mounting bracket for a car's sub-instrument panel includes a first mounting bracket 1, a second mounting bracket 20 on one side of the first mounting bracket 1, and a third mounting bracket 3 on one side of the first mounting bracket 1. Each of the first mounting bracket 1, the second mounting bracket 20, and the third mounting bracket 3 has an arc-shaped sliding groove 13 inside, and a limiting groove 14 inside each of the first mounting bracket 1, the second mounting bracket 20, and the third mounting bracket 3. An arc-shaped slider 15 is slidably mounted inside each limiting groove 14, and a sliding rod 16 is fixedly mounted on one side of each arc-shaped slider 15. The sliding rod 16 slides within the arc-shaped sliding groove 13, causing the arc-shaped slider 15 to rotate and move.
[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first mounting bracket 1 has a reserved hole 11 for the central control screen inside, and a reserved hole 12 for the function buttons inside.
[0028] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, each of the first mounting bracket 1, the second mounting bracket 20 and the third mounting bracket 3 has a connector 17 fixedly installed on both sides, and each connector 17 has a connection hole 18 for connecting to the main body of the vehicle.
[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the second mounting bracket 20 has a cup holder reserved hole 21 inside. Two connecting rods 22 are fixedly installed on one side of the cup holder reserved hole 21. Each connecting rod 22 has an elastic fastener 23 fixedly installed on both sides. The elastic fastener 23 is made of elastic plastic and will separate to both sides when pressed.
[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the third mounting bracket 3 has a gear shifting structure reserved opening 31 inside. Two round rods 32 are fixedly installed inside the gear shifting structure reserved opening 31. The elastic fastener 23 fastens the round rods 32 to connect the second mounting bracket 20 and the third mounting bracket 3.
[0031] The working process of this car's secondary dashboard mounting bracket is as follows:
[0032] First, the user connects the third mounting bracket 3 to the vehicle body via the connector 17 on one side. Then, aligning one side of the second mounting bracket 20 with one side of the third mounting bracket 3, the user presses down on the second mounting bracket 20, causing the elastic fastener 23 to open and engage the round rod 32 inside the third mounting bracket 3, thus creating a snap-fit connection between the third mounting bracket 3 and the second mounting bracket 20. The second mounting bracket 20 is then secured to the vehicle body via the connector 17 on one side. Finally, the user connects the rear end of the first mounting bracket 1 to the second mounting bracket 20 and the third mounting bracket 3. Align the front ends, then move the sliding rods 16 on both sides of the first mounting bracket 1 to rotate the arc-shaped slider 15 inside the sliding rod 16. This will cause the arc-shaped slider 15 inside the second mounting bracket 20 and the third mounting bracket 3 to rotate synchronously, so that the arc-shaped slider 15 passes through the interior of the first mounting bracket 1 and the second mounting bracket 20 and the first mounting bracket 1 and the third mounting bracket 3, thus connecting the first mounting bracket 1 with the second mounting bracket 20 and the third mounting bracket 3. Finally, use the connectors 17 on both sides of the first mounting bracket 1 to fix the first mounting bracket 1, thus completing the installation of the mounting bracket.
