AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing torque components provide the same rotational torque when rotating counterclockwise and clockwise, but the large difference in gravity affects the user experience.

Method used

The design employs a synergistic combination of a one-way bearing and a damping spring. When rotated clockwise, the one-way bearing releases the rotational degree of freedom, while when rotated counterclockwise, the damping spring provides a constant damping force to ensure consistent torque.

Benefits of technology

It achieves smooth and fluid opening clockwise and stable closing counterclockwise, avoiding the risk of pinching fingers, and can be hovered at any angle, improving the user experience.

Abstract

The utility model relates to the technical field of automotive interior, and disclose a handrail box one -way damping system, including support plate, axle, a plurality of damping spring, rivet, sleeve, clasp and one -way bearing, the rivet one end penetrates a plurality of damping spring and support plate in proper order, the damping spring is sleeved at the outside of sleeve, the sleeve is sleeved at the outside of one -way bearing, the sleeve is sleeved at the outside of axle, the axle one end passes through support plate and one -way bearing in proper order to be equipped with clasp, this handrail box one -way damping system, when clockwise opening, system releases the rotation degree of freedom with one -way bearing, makes it only suffer gravity, guarantees the smooth and smooth of opening operation, when being in the stationary state or vehicle driving jolt, one -way bearing automatic locking, prevent accidental overturning closure or sway. And in the anticlockwise closing process, one -way bearing fixed pivot, provide constant damping force by damping spring, ensure the torsional force value when closing and opening are consistent.
