Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive parts, and in particular to a miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box. Background Technology

[0002] The car seat storage box features a sliding or guide rail design, cleverly integrated into the seat. It can be easily pulled out for convenient and smooth access to items. Its concealed structure greatly saves interior space and solves the clutter problem of traditional storage methods, making it an ideal accessory for enhancing the practicality and aesthetics of car interiors.

[0003] Currently, car seat storage compartments are locked and unlocked using a latch mechanism. This mechanism consists of a latch body and a locking component. The latch body is rotatably mounted on the storage compartment, while the locking component is rotatably mounted inside the compartment. The latch body and the locking component are connected by a connector. To unlock, the latch body is rotated, causing the locking component to rotate via the connector. Once the locking component moves out of its locking slot, the storage compartment is unlocked.

[0004] The handle body drives the locking part to rotate and unlock via the connecting part. Since the locking part needs to rotate to unlock, it occupies a large space in the rotation path, thus affecting the storage space of the storage box. Utility Model Content

[0005] To reduce the space occupied by the handle structure, this application provides a miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box.

[0006] The miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box includes a fixed base, a handle body, a piston, a slider, and a sliding rod. The fixed base is fixedly mounted on a drawer panel, which is mounted on the drawer body. The slider is slidably mounted within the fixed base. One end of the piston is connected to the slider. A sleeve is provided on the handle body and fits onto the piston. A drive groove is obliquely formed on the side wall of the sleeve. A limit pin is provided on the piston, which is slidably mounted within the sleeve. An elastic element for pushing the piston outward is provided within the sleeve. The limit pin is slidably mounted within the drive groove. The sliding rod is connected to the end of the slider away from the piston and is slidably mounted on the drawer panel. The end of the sliding rod away from the slider passes through the drawer body and inserts into a locking groove.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic element pushes the piston to move, and the piston pushes the slide rod to move via the slider. The end of the slide rod inserts into the locking groove to lock the drawer body. Rotating the handle body causes the sleeve to rotate on the piston. During the rotation of the sleeve, the piston slides into the sleeve via the drive groove and the limiting pin. The piston moves and compresses the elastic element, which in turn drives the slide rod to move via the slider. The end of the slide rod slides out of the locking groove to unlock the drawer body. In this way, the rotational motion of the handle body is converted into the linear motion of the slide rod through the sleeve, drive groove, limiting pin, and piston, thereby reducing the space occupied by the handle structure.

[0009] Preferably, there are two of each of the sleeve, piston, limiting pin, drive groove, slider, and slide rod symmetrically arranged along the sliding direction of the slide rod.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the ends of the two sliding rods that are far apart from each other are inserted into the two locking slots respectively, which improves the stability of the locking mechanism. At the same time, rotating the handle body can simultaneously drive the two sliding rods out of the locking slots.

[0011] Preferably, there is a gap between the two sleeves, and a limiting plate is provided on the fixed seat, with the limiting plate located within the gap.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the handle body drives the two sleeves to rotate, the limiting plate is located within the gap and limits the two sleeves, so that the handle body will not shake when it rotates.

[0013] Preferably, a limiting block is provided on the end wall of the inner cavity of the sleeve, and the end of the elastic element away from the piston is sleeved on the limiting block.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic element is limited by the limiting block, making the elastic element more stable when it contracts and deforms.

[0015] Preferably, the piston has a receiving groove at the end near the elastic member, and the end of the elastic member is located in the receiving groove.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic element is limited by the receiving groove, making the elastic element more stable when it contracts and deforms.

[0017] Preferably, a plurality of limiting posts are fixedly provided on the fixing base, and the plurality of limiting posts are inserted into the drawer panel.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the installation of the fixing seat is limited by the limiting post, making the fixing seat more stable on the drawer panel.

[0019] Preferably, the end of the slide bar away from the slider has a chamfer.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the drawer body slides closed, the slide rod can automatically slide inward under the action of the chamfer, thereby automatically locking the drawer body without rotating the handle body.

[0021] Preferably, the end of the slide bar is detachably inserted into the slider.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the slide bar and the slider can be detachably connected, which facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the handle structure.

[0023] Preferably, it also includes a limiting buckle provided on the drawer panel, through which the slide rod slides.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the limit buckle guides the movement of the slide bar, making the movement of the slide bar more stable.

[0025] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0026] 1. The drawer body is locked by using an elastic element to push the piston to move. The piston pushes the slide rod to move through the slider. The end of the slide rod is inserted into the lock groove. Rotating the handle body causes the sleeve to rotate on the piston. During the rotation of the sleeve, the piston slides into the sleeve through the drive groove and the limit pin. The piston moves and squeezes the elastic element, which in turn drives the slide rod to move through the slider. The end of the slide rod slides out of the lock groove to unlock the drawer body. The rotational motion of the handle body is converted into the linear motion of the slide rod through the sleeve, drive groove, limit pin and piston, thereby reducing the space occupied by the handle structure.

[0027] 2. With the help of the limiting plate, when the handle body drives the two sleeves to rotate, the limiting plate is located within the gap and limits the two sleeves, so that the handle body will not shake when it rotates.

[0028] 3. The two ends of the elastic element are limited by the limiting block and the receiving groove, so that the elastic element is more stable when it contracts and deforms. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0037] This application discloses a miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box includes a fixed base 3, a handle body 4, two pistons 5, a slider 6, a sliding rod 7, and a limiting buckle 18. The drawer body 1 is slidably mounted inside the seat via guide rails, and the drawer panel 2 is detachably mounted on the drawer body 1. The fixed base 3 is fixedly mounted on the drawer panel 2 with bolts, and two limiting posts 16 are integrally formed on the side wall of the fixed base 3. The two limiting posts 16 are inserted into the drawer panel 2, making the installation of the fixed base 3 more stable.

[0039] Two sliders 6 are slidably mounted at both ends of the fixed base 3 along its length. Two pistons 5 are integrally formed at the ends of the two sliders 6 that are close to each other, and the cross-section of the pistons 5 is circular. Two sleeves 8 are fixedly mounted on the handle body 4, with a gap 12 between the two sleeves 8. A limiting plate 13 is fixedly mounted on the fixed base 3. The limiting plate 13 is located within the gap 12 and limits the rotation of the handle body 4.

[0040] Two sleeves 8 are respectively fitted onto two pistons 5. Each sleeve 8 has a drive groove 9, and the ends of the two drive grooves 9 that are close to each other are inclined upwards. A limit pin 10 is inserted into the side wall of each piston 5, and the two limit pins 10 are slidably installed in the two drive grooves 9.

[0041] Both sleeves 8 have elastic elements 11 installed at the bottom of their inner cavities. Two pistons 5 are slidably installed within the sleeves 8, with the ends of the elastic elements 11 that are far apart abutting the ends of the pistons 5 that are close together. Two limiting blocks 14 are fixedly installed at intervals on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the sleeves 8. A receiving groove 15 is provided at the end of the piston 5 furthest from the slider 6. In this application, the elastic element 11 can be a spring. One end of the elastic element 11 is sleeved on the two limiting blocks 14, and the other end is located within the receiving groove 15, thereby limiting the elastic element 11 and making it more stable when it contracts and deforms.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 Two limiting buckles 18 are detachably and fixedly installed on the drawer panel 2 and located on both sides of the fixing base 3. Two sliding rods 7 slide through the two limiting buckles 18 respectively. The ends of the two sliding rods 7 that are close to each other are detachably inserted into the two sliders 6 by buckles. The ends of the two sliding rods 7 that are far apart from each other pass through the drawer body 1 and form a chamfer 17. The ends of the two sliding rods 7 that are far apart from each other are inserted into the two locking grooves respectively.

[0043] The implementation principle of the miniaturized handle structure for a car seat storage box in this embodiment is as follows: When the handle body 4 rotates upward, it drives two sleeves 8 to rotate on two pistons 5. The two sleeves 8 drive two limiting pins 10 to move towards each other via the drive groove 9. The two limiting pins 10 then drive the two pistons 5 to slide within the sleeves 8. The pistons 5 slide and compress the elastic element 11, causing it to contract and deform. The two sliders 6 simultaneously drive the two sliding rods 7 to move towards each other, so that the ends of the two sliding rods 7 are pushed out of the locking groove, thereby contacting the locking of the drawer body 1. When the handle body 4 is released, the two elastic elements 11 push the two pistons 5 to slide away from each other. The pistons 5 push the sliding rods 7 to move back to their original position via the sliders 6. When the drawer body 1 is slid closed, under the action of the chamfer 17, the two sliding rods 7 can automatically slide towards each other, thereby automatically locking the drawer body 1 without rotating the handle body 4.

[0044] The above are merely optional embodiments of this disclosure and are not intended to limit this disclosure. Various modifications and variations can be made to this disclosure by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
