Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive interior parts technology, specifically a central storage box for automobiles. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive interior design broadly refers to all modifications and functional products applied to the interior space of a car, encompassing diverse components such as steering wheel covers, seat cushions, floor mats, and storage boxes, collectively shaping the driving and riding environment. As an indispensable subsystem of the car body, the interior system directly relates to the user's tactile and visual experience and ease of operation. Its design complexity and investment far exceed that of the car's exterior design, making it a core element determining the car's perceived quality and user satisfaction. Among numerous interior accessories, the center console plays a crucial role. It is not only the main storage area for miscellaneous items in the car but also provides comfortable support for the driver's arms, directly impacting convenience and comfort during driving. It is one of the key components for enhancing the practicality and human-centered design of the interior.
[0003] The interior space of a car's center console storage compartment is typically used to store common items such as beverage bottles, water cups, mobile phones, and keychains. However, this storage space is often designed to be quite spacious to meet diverse storage needs. This ample space, however, brings a significant problem during vehicle operation: the inertial forces and vibrations generated by vehicle acceleration, deceleration, turning, or driving on bumpy roads can cause items inside the storage compartment to frequently shake, slide, or even roll over. When the vehicle encounters an emergency requiring rapid braking, the items, under the immense inertia, can violently impact the inner walls, lid, or other items in the storage compartment, easily causing damage to the items themselves or the inner surface of the storage compartment, producing abnormal noises, affecting driving safety and passenger experience, and potentially contaminating the interior environment.

A third tension spring 24 is provided between one end of the stop frame 23 and the inside of the partition 22. Several first stop grooves 25 are provided inside the storage box 12 at positions corresponding to the stop frame 23. One end of the stop frame 23 is inserted into the first stop groove 25. A limiting mechanism for separating and fixing items is provided on one side of the partition 22. The fixing mechanism facilitates the fixing of the armrest box 13 and also facilitates the fixing of the box lid 14 when the armrest box 13 rotates. The limiting mechanism facilitates the fixing of items around the perimeter.
[0028] The fixing mechanism includes a limiting frame 20. The mounting box 15 has symmetrically arranged first mounting slots inside, and each of the first mounting slots has a limiting frame 20 slidably mounted therein. A first guide rod is slidably mounted on each limiting frame 20, and the first guide rod is fixedly mounted in the first mounting slot. A second tension spring 21 is provided between one side of each limiting frame 20 and one side of each first mounting slot. A slot is provided at the upper end of the box frame 11 corresponding to one end of the limiting frame 20, and one edge of the upper end of the slot is rounded. A pressing groove is provided on one side of the mounting box 15 corresponding to the other end of the limiting frame 20.

The other side is in close contact with the inside of the first mounting groove. Then, rotate the armrest box 13 so that one end of the limiting frame 20 disengages into the slot. Then, the limiting frame 20 can be released. Under the action of the second tension spring 21, the limiting frame 20 returns to its initial position. When it is necessary to re-fix the armrest box 13, close the armrest box 13. When one end of the limiting frame 20 is in close contact with the edge of the slot, press the armrest box 13 firmly so that the limiting frame 20 slides. When the bottom end of the armrest box 13 is in close contact with the top end of the box frame 11, under the action of the second tension spring 21, one end of the limiting frame 20 moves into the slot. Through the cooperation of the second tension spring 21 and the slot, the armrest box 13 is fixed. The mounting box 15 is provided with a locking component for fixing the box cover 14.
[0029] The locking assembly includes a connecting block 16. A connecting block 16 is fixedly provided at one end of each of the box covers 14. A fixing pin 17 is slidably provided in the insertion hole in the middle of each connecting block 16. A fixing block is fixedly provided at one end of each fixing pin 17. A second guide rod is slidably provided in the middle of each fixing block. The second guide rod is fixedly provided in the second mounting groove inside the mounting box 15.

With the rounded design, when the armrest box 13 needs to rotate, as the armrest box 13 begins to rotate, one end of the top plate 19 is tightly attached to the rounded part on the guide groove. As the armrest box 13 rotates, under the action of the first tension spring 18, the fixing block drives the fixing pin 17 to slide. One end of the fixing pin 17 is gradually inserted into the insertion hole in the middle of the connecting block 16. When one end of the top plate 19 is completely removed from the guide groove, the fixing pin 17 is fully inserted into the insertion hole, thus fixing the box cover 14. When the bottom end of the armrest box 13 is tightly attached to the upper end of the box frame 11 again, the fixing pin 17 is removed from the insertion hole, allowing the box cover 14 to be used normally.
[0030] The limiting mechanism includes a rotating tube 26. Adjusting grooves 31 are symmetrically arranged on one side of the partition 22.

The fixed tube is fixed to the upper end of a rotating tube 26. A rectangular through hole is provided at the upper end of the rotating tube 26 corresponding to the position of the fixed tube. The bottom end of the stop block 28 and the upper end of the extension rod 27 are both provided with anti-slip layers. In use, when it is necessary to fix the object around its perimeter, both partitions 22 are made to be in close contact with the object. Then, the rotating tube 26 is rotated, and the sliding rod 30 is placed inside the adjusting groove 31, so that both rotating tubes 26 are in close contact with the object. One end of the extension rod 27 is inserted into the second stop groove 33. Then, the screw 29 is rotated to fix the extension rod 27, thereby fixing the two rotating tubes 26, thus fixing the object around its perimeter and reducing the shaking of the object.
[0032] The adjustment groove 31 has a third mounting groove on one side, and a magnet strip 32 is fixedly installed in the third mounting groove. The rotating tube 26 is made of ferromagnetic material. When in use, when the rotating tube 26 is not in use, one side of the rotating tube 26 is in close contact with the magnet strip 32, so that the magnet strip 32 adsorbs and fixes the rotating tube 26.
[0033] Each partition 22 is fixedly provided with a sealing strip 34 at its bottom end. The sealing strip 34 is made of rubber and is used to increase the sealing effect of the partition 22, preventing the leakage of liquid inside the storage box 12 from further affecting other items.

The first magnet and the second magnet attract each other. When in use, the magnetic poles of the contact surfaces of the first magnet and the second magnet are opposite, which makes it easy to fix the storage box 12.
[0035] The above embodiment discloses a car center storage box. When it is necessary to secure items around the storage box, both partitions 22 are pressed tightly against the items. Then, the rotating tube 26 is rotated, and the sliding rod 30 is placed inside the adjusting groove 31, so that both rotating tubes 26 are pressed tightly against the items. One end of the extension rod 27 is inserted into the second stop groove 33. Then, the screw 29 is rotated to fix the extension rod 27, thereby fixing the two rotating tubes 26, thus securing the items around the storage box and reducing the shaking of the items. When the rotating tube 26 is not in use, one side of the rotating tube 26 is pressed tightly against the magnetic strip 32, so that the magnetic strip 32 attracts and fixes the rotating tube 26. When it is necessary to rotate the armrest box 13 to take out items from the storage box 12, the user presses the two limiting brackets 20 at the same time, so that the other side of the two limiting brackets 20 is pressed tightly against the inside of the first mounting groove. Then, the armrest box 13 is rotated, so that one end of the limiting bracket 20 disengages into the slot, and then the limiting bracket can be released. 20. Under the action of the second tension spring 21, the limiting frame 20 returns to its initial position. At the same time, one end of the top plate 19 is tightly attached to the rounded part on the guide groove. As the armrest box 13 rotates, under the action of the first tension spring 18, the fixing block drives the fixing pin 17 to slide. One end of the fixing pin 17 gradually inserts into the insertion hole in the middle of the connecting block 16. When one end of the top plate 19 is completely disengaged from the guide groove, the fixing pin 17 is fully inserted into the insertion hole, thus fixing the box cover 14. When it is necessary to adjust... When the armrest box 13 is re-secured, close the armrest box 13. When one end of the limiting bracket 20 is in close contact with the edge of the slot, press the armrest box 13 firmly to make the limiting bracket 20 slide. When the bottom end of the armrest box 13 is in close contact with the top end of the box frame 11, under the action of the second tension spring 21, one end of the limiting bracket 20 moves into the slot. Through the cooperation of the second tension spring 21 and the slot, the armrest box 13 is secured. At the same time, the fixing pin 17 is disengaged from the insertion hole, so that the box cover 14 can be used normally.
