Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of hidden charging panels, specifically a hidden wireless charging panel for a seat armrest. Background Technology

[0002] As electrical equipment increasingly demands higher requirements for power quality, safety, reliability, convenience, immediacy, special occasions, and special geographical environments, contact-based power transmission methods are becoming less and less able to meet practical needs. Wireless chargers are devices that use the principle of electromagnetic induction for charging. Their principle is similar to that of a transformer. By placing a coil at both the transmitting and receiving ends, the transmitting coil emits electromagnetic signals to the outside world under the action of electricity, and the receiving coil receives the electromagnetic signals and converts them into current, thereby achieving the purpose of wireless charging.

[0003] Existing charging panels installed on seat armrests are mostly independent, with some being directly installed on the upper surface of the armrest. Once installed, they cannot be removed, and they cannot be hidden away when not in use. When in use, they are exposed, affecting aesthetics and making them susceptible to damage from collisions, which has certain drawbacks. Therefore, those skilled in the art have proposed a hidden wireless charging panel for seat armrests to solve the problems mentioned in the background. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a hidden wireless charging panel for a seat armrest to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

A first movable groove is provided on the inner bottom surface of the main slot. One end of a first elastic element is installed on the inner wall of one end of the first movable groove. A first slider is connected to the bottom end of the movable plate and is slidably connected within the first movable groove. The other end of the first elastic element is connected to the first slider. A cylindrical hole is provided along the length of the movable plate, and both ends of the cylindrical hole are... The opening has a cylindrical hole with a press trigger rod inside. The top of the press trigger rod is connected to a second slider. The inner top surface of the cylindrical hole has a second movable groove. One end of the inner wall of the second movable groove is fitted with one end of a second elastic element. The second slider is slidably connected in the second movable groove. The other end of the second elastic element is connected to the second slider. The bottom rear end of the movable plate is connected to a docking plate. The inner top surface of the rear end of the main slot is fitted with a fixing component. The fixing component fixes the docking plate. When the rear end of the press trigger rod presses against the side of the fixing component, the fixing component releases the fixing of the docking plate.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixing component includes a sleeve installed on the inner top surface of the main slot, a third elastic member with one end installed on the inner top surface of the sleeve, and a locking block inserted into the lower part of the sleeve. The top end of the locking block is connected to the bottom end of the third elastic member, and the top end of the docking plate is provided with a locking groove that mates with the bottom of the locking block.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bottom end of the card block is symmetrically connected to two card plates, the width of the pressing trigger rod is less than the distance between the two card plates, the front part of the bottom end of the card block is connected to an arc-shaped block, the top end of the pressing trigger rod is located below the top end of the arc-shaped block, the height of the card plate is the same as the height of the pressing trigger rod, and the rear end top of the docking plate is provided with an arc-shaped surface.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the first elastic element and the second elastic element are selected as slow-returning springs.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a controller is installed at the bottom of the handrail, a receiving groove is provided at the rear of the handrail, the charging panel is connected to the controller circuit via a wire, part of the wire is placed in the receiving groove, and the wire is interlocked with the handrail.

[0011] This utility model has the following advantages: The charging panel is set on the movable plate, which is housed in the main slot. By pressing the front end of the trigger rod, the rear end of the trigger rod presses the side of the fixing component, thus releasing the fixing component from the docking plate. At this time, the first elastic element can pop the movable plate out of the main slot, thereby exposing the charging panel. When it is necessary to hide the charging panel, the movable plate is pushed into the main slot, and the fixing component and the docking plate automatically fix the movable plate in the main slot. The front end of the movable plate, the front end of the trigger rod, and the front end of the handrail are integrally formed, ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the handrail and improving the usability.

[0020] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1A concealed wireless charging panel 8 for a seat armrest 1 includes an armrest 1. The front end of the armrest 1 has a main slot 2, and a movable plate 3 is installed within the main slot 2. The top of the movable plate 3 has a mounting groove 7, and the charging panel 8 is installed within the mounting groove 7. The inner bottom surface of the main slot 2 has a first movable groove 4. One end of a first elastic element 6 is installed on the inner wall of one end of the first movable groove 4. The bottom end of the movable plate 3 is connected to a first slider 5, which is slidably connected within the first movable groove 4. The other end of the first elastic element 6 is connected to the first slider 5. A cylindrical hole 9 is provided on the movable plate 3 along its length direction, with both ends of the cylindrical hole 9 being open. A pressing trigger rod 10 is provided inside the hole 9. The top end of the pressing trigger rod 10 is connected to a second slider 12. A second movable groove 11 is provided on the inner top surface of the cylindrical hole 9. One end of a second elastic element 13 is installed on the inner wall of one end of the second movable groove 11. The second slider 12 is slidably connected in the second movable groove 11. The other end of the second elastic element 13 is connected to the second slider 12. A docking plate 14 is connected to the bottom of the rear end of the movable plate 3. A fixing component 15 is installed on the inner top surface of the rear end of the main slot 2. The fixing component 15 fixes the docking plate 14. When the rear end of the pressing trigger rod 10 presses the side of the fixing component 15, the fixing component 15 releases the fixing of the docking plate 14.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The fixing component 15 includes a sleeve 19 installed on the inner top surface of the main slot 2, a third elastic element 21 installed on the inner top surface of the sleeve 19 at one end, and a locking block 20 inserted into the lower part of the sleeve 19. The top end of the locking block 20 is connected to the bottom end of the third elastic element 21. The top end of the docking plate 14 is provided with a locking groove 24 that mates with the bottom of the locking block 20. The bottom end of the locking block 20 is symmetrically connected with two locking plates 23. The width of the pressing trigger rod 10 is less than the distance between the two locking plates 23. The front part of the bottom end of the locking block 20 is connected with an arc-shaped block 22. The top end of the pressing trigger rod 10 is located below the top end of the arc-shaped block 22. The height of the locking plate 23 is the same as the height of the pressing trigger rod 10. The top of the rear end of the docking plate 14 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 25. When the locking block 20 is in its natural state, that is, when the third elastic element 21 is only subjected to the gravity of the locking block 20, the bottom end of the locking plate 23 is not lower than the bottom end of the arc-shaped surface 25.

[0022] Example 2: See Figure 1 Based on Embodiment 1, the first elastic element 6 and the second elastic element 13 are selected as soft-return springs so that the movable plate 3 will not pop out violently.

[0023] Please see Figure 1The bottom of the handrail 1 is equipped with a controller 16, and the rear of the handrail 1 is provided with a receiving groove 18. The charging panel 8 is connected to the controller 16 via a wire 17. Part of the wire 17 is placed in the receiving groove 18. The wire 17 is interlocked with the handrail 1. The movement of the movable plate 3 will pull the wire 17. The receiving groove 18 provides space for the wire 17 to move and coil.

[0024] Working principle: During use, push the movable plate 3 into the main slot 2, and the docking plate 14 moves. The arc surface 25 presses against the front bottom of the clamping plate 23, thereby causing the clamping plate 23 to move upward until the bottom of the clamping plate 23 aligns with the top of the docking plate 14. Then, the docking plate 14 continues to move backward. After the clamping plate 23 moves above the slot 24, the elastic element causes the clamping block 20 and the clamping plate 23 to move downward, and the bottom of the clamping plate 23 is inserted into the slot 24, thus fixing the docking plate 14. Charging is required. When the panel 8 is in use, press the front end of the trigger lever 10 with your finger. Press the trigger lever 10 and move it backward. Press the rear end of the trigger lever 10 to press the arc-shaped block 22, which in turn moves the locking block 20 upward until the bottom end of the locking plate 23 is disengaged from the locking groove 24. At this time, the first elastic element 6 resets and moves the movable plate 3, which in turn pushes the movable plate 3 out of the main slot 2. The trigger lever 10 is reset under the reset action of the second elastic element 13. At this time, the charging panel 8 is exposed outside the armrest 1 and can be used.
