[0002] The spare tire compartment is a space used to store a spare tire. It is usually located at the bottom or rear of the vehicle and is waterproof and dustproof, which can ensure the safety and integrity of the spare tire.

[0003] Currently, vehicle spare tire covers are secured with bolts and then fastened using a simple snap-fit ​​method. This method is not very safe, inconvenient, and reduces practicality. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a vehicle spare tire cover to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vehicle spare tire cover, including an outer cover shell, the back side of which is installed on the vehicle by fixing bolts, and a cover is provided on the side of the outer cover shell away from the vehicle by a hinge, the cover being positioned by a limiting component when closed on the outer cover shell.

[0006] Preferably, the limiting component includes a limiting seat and a positioning seat respectively disposed on the lower surface of the outer shell and the box cover, and a buckle plate is disposed vertically below the limiting seat and the positioning seat, and an enclosing portion is integrally formed around the outer side of the buckle plate.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning seat has a snap-fit ​​notch on the side facing the limiting seat.

[0008] Preferably, a through hole is provided in the center of the surface of the buckle plate, and a rotating shaft is inserted into the through hole. A limiting plate is provided at one end of the upper surface of the buckle plate, and the limiting plate is adapted to the buckle notch.

[0009] Preferably, the rotating shaft extends through a through hole to one end of the lower surface of the buckle plate and is provided with a cover.

[0010] Preferably, the lower surface of the limiting seat extends outward to have an insertion portion, and the buckle plate is provided with a slot on the side facing the insertion portion.

[0011] Preferably, the surface of the box lid is provided with an observation cover.

[0012] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: The vehicle spare tire cover is installed on the vehicle body by fixing bolts, and the vehicle spare tire is installed in the cover. By rotating the hinge, the cover is closed on the cover. At this time, pushing the buckle plate upward moves it along the length of the rotation axis toward one side of the cover, allowing the insertion part to be inserted into the slot, thus fixing the tail of the buckle plate. Opening the cover and rotating the rotation axis drives the limit plate to rotate, so that the limit plate rotates to the snap notch, thereby fixing the limit seat and then fixing the closed cover. The overall structure is simple, making it easy to open and close the cover and improving its practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0022] To facilitate securing the closed lid 3, refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the device includes an outer housing 1, which is mounted to the vehicle via bolts on its back side. A cover 3 is mounted on the side of the outer housing 1 away from the vehicle via a hinge 2. The cover 3 is positioned by a limiting component when closed on the outer housing 1. The outer housing 1 is mounted to the vehicle body via bolts, and the spare tire is installed inside the outer housing 1. Rotation of the hinge 2 closes the cover 3 onto the outer housing 1. At this point, the latching plate 6 is pushed upwards, moving along the length of the rotating shaft 9 towards one side of the outer housing 1, allowing the insertion part 12 to be inserted into the slot 13, thus securing the tail of the latching plate 6. The cover 11 is then opened, and the rotating shaft 9 is rotated, causing the limiting plate 10 to rotate to the engaging notch 8, thereby securing the limiting seat 4 and subsequently fixing the closed cover 3. The overall structure is simple and facilitates the opening and closing of the cover 3.

[0023] For easier installation of the spare tire, please refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the limiting assembly includes a limiting seat 4 and a positioning seat 5 respectively disposed on the lower surfaces of the outer casing 1 and the lid 3. A snap-fit ​​plate 6 is vertically positioned below the limiting seat 4 and the positioning seat 5. A surrounding portion 7 is integrally formed around the outer side of the snap-fit ​​plate 6, allowing the user to press or grasp the snap-fit ​​plate 6 to install it, thereby fixing the lid 3. The positioning seat 5 has a snap-fit ​​notch 8 facing inwards from the limiting seat 4. A through hole is centrally located on the snap-fit ​​surface, allowing the rotating shaft 9 to rotate. The rotating shaft 9 is inserted into the through hole. A limiting plate 10 is disposed at one end of the upper surface of the snap-fit ​​plate 6, and the limiting plate 10 is adapted to the snap-fit ​​notch 8. As the rotating shaft 9 rotates, it drives the limiting plate 10 to rotate. When the limiting plate 10 moves to the snap-fit ​​notch 8, the limiting seat 4 is fixed, and subsequently, the closed lid 3 is fixed. When the box cover 3 needs to be opened, rotate the rotating shaft 9 to disengage the limiting plate 10 from the snap-fit ​​notch 8. Then, pull the buckle plate 6 downwards in the vertical direction to pull the insertion part 12 out of the slot 13, thereby opening the box cover 3. The rotating shaft 9 extends through the through hole to one end of the lower surface of the buckle plate 6, where a cover 11 is provided. The cover 11 protects the lower surface of the rotating shaft 9, preventing accidental contact with the rotating shaft 9 and thus opening the box cover 3, thereby improving safety. The lower surface of the limiting seat 4 extends outwards with an insertion part 12, and the buckle plate 6 has a slot 13 on the side facing the insertion part 12. The surface of the box cover 3 is provided with an observation cover 14, which allows observation of the spare tire inside the outer shell 1. A square groove 15 is provided on the back side of the outer shell 1, and a fastener for installing the spare tire is provided on the vehicle body. This fastener extends through the square groove 15 into the outer shell 1, and the spare tire is installed into the outer shell 1 through the fastener.

[0024] In use, the outer shell 1 is first installed on the vehicle body with fixing bolts, and the spare tire is installed in the outer shell 1. By rotating the hinge 2, the cover 3 is closed on the outer shell 1. At this time, push the buckle plate 6 upward so that the buckle plate 6 moves towards one side of the outer shell 1 along the length of the rotating shaft 9, so that the insertion part 12 is inserted into the slot 13, thus completing the fixing of the tail of the buckle plate 6. Open the cover 11, rotate the rotating shaft 9, and drive the limit plate 10 to rotate, so that the limit plate 10 rotates to the snap notch 8, thereby completing the fixing of the limit seat 4, and then fixing the closed cover 3.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
