Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to a central control panel for an automotive dashboard. Background Technology
[0002] The car dashboard is an important component displaying vehicle status, typically including a speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, and coolant temperature gauge. Modern dashboards also integrate a trip computer, which can display information such as fuel consumption, mileage, and fault codes. Warning lights use different colors (red, yellow, and green) to indicate vehicle conditions, such as seatbelt not being fastened or abnormal oil pressure, serving as the driver's "driving information center."
[0003] In existing technologies, dust on the center console of a car dashboard tends to accumulate in the gaps between panels and the recesses of buttons. Traditional cleaning requires manual use of tools such as cloths and air blowers, which results in low cleaning efficiency and the easy omission of hidden areas. Although some models are equipped with simple dustproof structures, they cannot actively remove the dust that has already adhered to them. Long-term use can easily lead to blurred panel display and sluggish button operation. Furthermore, frequent manual cleaning can damage the panel coating, increasing user maintenance costs and operational complexity.
[0004] To address the above issues, a new type of automotive dashboard center console panel is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. In this utility model, pulling the lever causes the piston to slide inside the thin shell. The air pressure difference allows external air to enter the filter box through the suction head and suction tube. After the filter screen intercepts dust and impurities, the filtered air then enters the thin shell. When the lever is released, spring one pushes the piston back to its original position, increasing the air pressure inside the thin shell. The gas is then sprayed out from the nozzle through the air outlet pipe, blowing off the dust on the control panel and achieving the cleaning and dust removal function. In addition, pulling the handle causes the baffle to overcome the elasticity of spring two, allowing the plug block to be pulled out for easy removal of the drawer to clean dust and impurities. After cleaning, spring two pushes the baffle back to its original position to fix the drawer, realizing automatic cleaning and convenient maintenance of the control panel.
[0024] 2. In this utility model, the worm gear is driven to rotate by a motor, and the transmission characteristics of the worm gear mechanism are used to drive the worm wheel and rotating rod to rotate, thereby realizing the angle adjustment of the main body of the central control panel.

[0039] Specifically, the cover 2 is used to cover the protective frame 1, protecting the main body of the central control panel 3 from dust and foreign objects; magnet 29 and magnet 30 are used to securely fix the cover 2 to the top of the protective frame 1 through magnetic attraction, ensuring its stability in the covered state; spring 19 is used to provide elasticity to push the baffle 20 to reset, allowing the plug block 21 to be inserted into the drawer 9, thus fixing the drawer 9; the baffle 20 is used to move the plug block 21, controlling the fixing and disassembly of the drawer 9; the handle 22 is used for easy pulling. The movable baffle 20 facilitates operation; the plug block 21 is used to insert into the drawer 9 and fix the drawer 9 in the filter box 8; the air outlet pipe 13 is used to export the gas in the thin shell 4 to the nozzle 15 to clean the main body 3 of the central control panel; the suction pipe 16 is used to introduce the blown dust and impurities into the filter box 8 as air to provide an air source for the cleaning components; the pull rod 5 is used to connect the piston 6 to the inner wall of the thin shell 4, and by pulling, the piston 6 is driven to slide in the thin shell 4 to change the air pressure in the thin shell 4, so as to realize the intake and exhaust of gas.
[0040] Working principle: When the angle of the central control panel body 3 needs to be adjusted, the motor 26 starts, and the worm 27 at its output end rotates accordingly. Since the worm 27 is meshed with the worm wheel 25, the worm wheel 25 rotates under the drive of the worm 27, which in turn drives the rotating rod 23, which is fixedly connected to the worm wheel 25, to rotate, and finally realizes the angle adjustment of the central control panel body 3.
[0041] Pulling lever 5 causes piston 6 to slide inside thin shell 4, reducing air pressure inside thin shell 4. Under the pressure difference, external air enters filter box 8 through suction head 17 and suction tube 16. Dust and other impurities in the air are intercepted by filter screen 10 and fall into drawer 9. Filtered air enters thin shell 4 through connecting pipe 11. Releasing lever 5 causes spring 1 7 to push piston 6 back to its original position, increasing air pressure inside thin shell 4. Gas is sprayed out from nozzle 15 through air outlet pipe 13 to clean and remove dust from the surface of central control panel body 3. When it is necessary to clean dust and impurities in filter box 8, pull handle 22 to drive baffle 20 to slide in slide groove 18 against the elastic force of spring 2 19, causing plug block 21 to be pulled out from drawer 9. Drawer 9 can then be taken out for cleaning. After cleaning, release handle 22, spring 2 19 pushes baffle 20 back to its original position, and plug block 21 is reinserted into drawer 9 to fix it.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
