TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automotive interior, concretely relates to a flexible adjustable storage box. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the design and application field of the automobile interior storage equipment, creating efficient, safe and convenient storage experience for the driver is always the core point of industry attention. As for the common storage box with a partition design, the driver will encounter a series of tricky problems when using in the driving process.
[0003] When the driver needs to adjust the position of the partition in the storage box to adapt to the placement of different size articles, the operation process is quite cumbersome. On the one hand, if the partition is directly slid, the driver needs to overcome strong magnetic force to slide the partition to the target area. Although the strong magnetic attraction design can enhance the stability of the partition after being fixed, it also leads to a significant increase in sliding resistance, making the driver very laborious when operating. Such operation in the driving process not only increases the physical consumption of the driver, but also easily distracts the attention, seriously affecting the driving safety. On the other hand, if the driver wants to slide the partition more easily, the driver needs to remove the magnetic connection first, then slide the partition to the target area, and then limit and fix the position of the partition by operating the limiting structure. This process has many steps, not only wastes time, but also increases the complexity of operation. During the driving process of the vehicle, frequent operation of these operations will undoubtedly distract the driver's attention to the road conditions, and bury the safety hazard. SUMMARY
[0004] The problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a flexible adjustable storage box to solve the problem of affecting the driving safety of the driver caused by the cumbersome or laborious operation of the existing storage box with adjustable storage space.
[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the utility model to solve the above problem is as follows: a flexible adjustable storage box, comprising:
[0006] A box body is provided with a placement groove for accommodating articles, a sliding rod is fixedly arranged on the first side of the placement groove along the length direction, a plurality of limiting grooves are distributed in the lower part of the sliding rod along the axial direction, and a magnetic connecting block is fixedly arranged on the second side of the placement groove;
[0007] A flexible belt is slidably connected to the sliding rod through a hinge block, the bottom of the hinge block is provided with a limiting protrusion matched with the limiting groove, and the second end of the flexible belt is fixedly provided with an adsorption head matched with the magnetic connection of the magnetic connecting block;
[0008] The hinge block is configured as:
[0009] When rotated to the first angle, the limiting protrusion is embedded in the corresponding limiting groove to lock the axial position, while driving the adsorption head to rotate to the first working position to form magnetic fixation with the magnetic connecting block;
[0010] When rotated to the second angle, the limiting protrusion is separated from the limiting groove to release the axial locking, while driving the adsorption head to rotate to the second adjusting position to separate from the magnetic connecting block.
[0011] The synchronous unlocking and magnetic separation is realized by the hinged block rotation linkage mechanism. When the flexible belt is manually pulled to separate the adsorption head from the magnetic connecting block, the hinged block is automatically rotated to the second angle under the action of the pulling force, at which time the limiting protrusion is separated from the limiting groove of the sliding rod to release the axial locking. In the traditional design, the magnetic attraction needs to be separated first and then the limiting is manually unlocked. The structure synchronously completes the two operations through a single pulling action, reduces the operation steps, and through a flexible adjustable storage box, the driver only needs to rotate the hinged block with one hand to trigger the mechanical structure. This design greatly improves the operation efficiency, more importantly, avoids the driver's hands from being away from the steering wheel for a long time, fundamentally ensures the safety during driving. And it can also be arranged along the long edge direction of the placement groove to realize the elastic storage of long items such as umbrellas and maps.
[0012] Further, the contact surfaces of the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove are complementary tapered inclined surfaces with a taper angle of 15°-25°. This design enables the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove to achieve more accurate positioning when cooperating.
[0013] Further, the limiting protrusion is provided with a guide round corner at the bottom. The guide round corner at the bottom of the limiting protrusion plays a crucial guiding role. In the process of embedding the limiting protrusion into the limiting groove, the guide round corner can make the limiting protrusion more smoothly slide into the limiting groove, avoiding the problem of inaccurate embedding due to slight misalignment of the limiting protrusion and the limiting groove.
[0014] Further, the magnetic connecting block comprises:
[0015] an adsorption surface arranged towards the sliding rod and parallel to the sliding rod axis; a placement surface intersecting perpendicularly with the adsorption surface and extending along the length direction of the placement groove for bearing the adsorption head; a magnetic attraction block arranged behind the adsorption surface for generating a magnetic field on the adsorption surface.
[0016] The adsorption surface is arranged towards the sliding rod and parallel to the sliding rod axis, which enables the adsorption head to be in the best angle and position when rotating to the magnetic attraction fixation with the magnetic connecting block, thereby ensuring the maximum magnetic attraction contact area. The placement surface intersects perpendicularly with the adsorption surface and extends along the length direction of the placement groove, providing a stable bearing platform for the adsorption head. The magnetic attraction block is arranged behind the adsorption surface, which can generate a uniform and stable magnetic field on the adsorption surface.
[0017] Further, the adsorption head comprises: a connecting part, which is magnetically attracted to the placement surface of the magnetic connecting block; a protruding part, which is integrally formed around the outer edge of the connecting part and extends towards the second end of the flexible band; and a mounting groove, which is provided inside the protruding part and has a cross-sectional shape matching that of the flexible band. This close connection can effectively fix the flexible band, thereby better limiting the position of the items in the storage box and preventing the items from shaking and moving. The protruding part is integrally formed around the outer edge of the connecting part and extends towards the second end of the flexible band, thereby protecting the connecting part and enhancing the structural strength. On one hand, the protruding part can prevent the connecting part from being collided and scraped by external objects, thereby avoiding the influence of the damage of the connecting part on the magnetic attraction effect between the adsorption head and the magnetic connecting block. On the other hand, the presence of the protruding part increases the overall structural strength of the adsorption head, so that the adsorption head is not easily deformed when subjected to external force, thereby ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the adsorption head. The mounting groove is provided inside the protruding part and has a cross-sectional shape matching that of the flexible band, so that the flexible band can be closely mounted in the mounting groove.
[0018] Further, the inner wall of the mounting groove is provided with anti-disengagement barbs, which form an interference fit with the surface of the flexible band and generate a pulling resistance ≥8N. This provides a reliable guarantee for the connection between the flexible band and the adsorption head. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
