Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field, specifically to a novel automotive paddle shifter. Background Technology
[0002] Paddle shifters are gear-shifting devices installed on semi-automatic clutches in cars. Their function is to allow gear shifting without pressing the clutch pedal, by directly pulling up the paddle shifters.
[0003] For example, announcement number CN113953221B (titled "A Simple Car Gear Shift Paddle") includes: a front paddle, on which a locking block is fixedly connected and a rear paddle is detachably connected, and on which a toggle block is fixedly connected; a motor disposed on and fixedly connected to the front paddle, the output end of which is fixedly connected to a first rotating shaft, a half-stroke gear fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft; a sliding groove is formed on the front paddle, and multiple sets of sliding shafts are slidably connected in the sliding groove, with a moving ring fixedly connected to each set of sliding shafts. The moving ring connects to a power assembly positioned between the front and rear paddles. A wiping assembly, located on the rear paddle and connected to the power assembly, solves the problem of difficult-to-clean dirt on the back of the paddles after prolonged use. By regularly wiping the back of the paddles, the dirt accumulated after use is removed. The overall cleaning process is quick, effective, and easy to operate, significantly improving the overall usability of the paddles.
[0004] The aforementioned paddle shifters are cleaned using a wiping component. However, most paddle shifters are made of aluminum alloy, which has a high manufacturing cost and poor aesthetics, thus affecting their performance. Therefore, we provide a new type of automotive paddle shifter. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of automotive paddle shifter to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that existing paddle shifters are cleaned by a wiping component, but most paddle shifters are made of aluminum alloy, which has a high manufacturing cost and poor aesthetics, thus affecting the performance of the paddle shifters.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel automotive paddle shifter, comprising a paddle plate, with a front paddle and a rear paddle respectively disposed at both ends of the paddle plate, the front paddle and the rear paddle being integrally formed with the paddle plate;
[0007] Also includes:
[0008] The snap-fit block is fixed in the middle of the lever plate by nail-free adhesive, and an inner carrier is provided on the front end face of the snap-fit block. The inner carrier and the snap-fit block are an integral structure.
[0009] Preferably, a locking groove is provided at the connection position between the locking block and the paddle plate, and the locking groove and the paddle plate are an integral structure.
[0010] Preferably, the front end surface of the inner carrier is provided with anti-slip strips, the anti-slip strips and the inner carrier are an integral structure, and three anti-slip strips are provided.
[0011] Preferably, there are two paddle shifters, which are symmetrically distributed about the car steering wheel.
[0012] Preferably, both the paddle plate and the snap-fit block are transparent.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] This utility model features a transparent structure made of acrylic sheet, which saves costs and offers better rigidity compared to aluminum alloy. The paddle shifters are filled with glitter that can flow inside, making them more aesthetically pleasing. This design overcomes the problem that existing paddle shifters rely on a wiping component for cleaning, but most are made of aluminum alloy, which has high manufacturing costs and poor aesthetics, thus affecting the performance of the paddle shifters.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-4The present invention provides an embodiment of a novel automotive paddle shifter, comprising a paddle plate 1, with a front paddle 2 and a rear paddle 3 respectively disposed at both ends of the paddle plate 1, the front paddle 2 and the rear paddle 3 being integrally formed with the paddle plate 1.
[0022] Also includes:
[0023] The snap-fit block 4 is fixedly installed in the middle of the paddle plate 1 with nail-free adhesive, and the front end face of the snap-fit block 4 is provided with an inner carrier 5, which is an integral structure with the snap-fit block 4.
[0024] Please see Figure 3 A locking groove 7 is provided at the connection position between the locking block 4 and the paddle plate 1. The locking groove 7 and the paddle plate 1 are an integral structure. The locking groove 7 at the connection position between the locking block 4 and the paddle plate 1 facilitates the assembly and connection of the locking block 4 and the paddle plate 1. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The inner seat 5 has an anti-slip strip 6 on its front surface. The anti-slip strip 6 is an integral part of the inner seat 5, and three anti-slip strips 6 are provided. The anti-slip strip 6 on the front surface of the inner seat 5 serves to prevent slippage when the shift paddles are moved. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 There are two paddle shifters 1, which are symmetrically distributed about the car steering wheel. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 Both the paddle plate 1 and the snap-fit block 4 are transparent.
