Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle technology, specifically to a table structure and a vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing adoption of smart cockpits, the multi-functionality and multi-scenario applicability of in-vehicle space have received growing attention. In the automotive parts sector, the design of the unfolding structure of the center console tray, a crucial component for enhancing the convenience of using in-vehicle space, is of paramount importance.
[0003] Currently, there are some related tabletop structure designs in the existing technology. For example, there is a central control box and automobile with a liftable tabletop proposed in the existing technology. The tabletop support structure is movably connected to the tabletop and the internal mounting bracket, and the tabletop mainly relies on its own weight to unfold. In some cases (e.g., when the vehicle is on a bumpy road), this design may not meet the user's need for tabletop unfolding stability. Utility Model Content
[0004] One of the objectives of this invention is to provide a table structure and a vehicle to solve the problem of instability of the table in the existing technology when it is unfolded and folded.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] According to a first aspect of this application, this application provides a table structure for a vehicle. The table structure includes a table body and a locking mechanism connected to the table body. The table body can switch between a folded state and an unfolded state. The locking mechanism is used to lock and position the table body when it is in the folded state or the unfolded state.
[0007] Based on the aforementioned technical means, by setting a locking mechanism, the table body can be locked and positioned in two states (folded or unfolded), ensuring that the table will not make abnormal noises due to bumps or other factors during vehicle operation, thus guaranteeing the safety and stability of use.
[0008] In one possible implementation, the tabletop body includes a support portion and at least one folding portion, the at least one folding portion being rotatably connected to the support portion, and a locking mechanism being connected between the support portion and the folding portion.
[0009] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the rotatable connection between the support and the folding part allows the folding part to be folded up near the support when not in use, effectively saving interior space.
[0010] In one possible implementation, the locking mechanism includes a support rod, a support frame, and a locking member. The support frame is located at the folding portion and has a sliding groove. The two opposite ends of the sliding groove are a first end and a second end, respectively, with the second end located on the side of the first end away from the support portion. One end of the support rod is hinged to the support portion, and the other end of the support rod is slidably connected to the sliding groove. The other end of the support rod can slide relative to the support frame between the first end and the second end. When the support rod is at the first end, the tabletop body is in an unfolded state. When the support rod is at the second end, the tabletop body is in a folded state. The locking member is used to lock the support rod when it is at either the first end or the second end.
[0011] Based on the above technical means, a reliable mechanical linkage system can be formed through the cooperation of support rods, support frames and locking parts, and accurately realize the switching between the unfolded and folded states of the table body. It provides stable support for the table body in the unfolded state to ensure the load-bearing capacity of the table. At the same time, it can effectively limit the table body in the folded state and improve the stability of the table body in the folded state.
[0012] In one possible implementation, the locking member is rotatably connected to the support frame and can swing relative to the support frame between a first position and a second position. The end of the locking member facing the support is the front end. When the locking member is in the first position, the front end is located in the slide groove and between the first end and the second end. A first limiting space is formed between the front end and the inner wall surface of the first end facing away from the second end. The first limiting space is used to restrict the other end of the support rod, thereby locking the table body in an unfolded state. The locking member is provided with a limiting rib. The limiting rib is located on the side of the front end away from the support. The limiting rib is located in the slide groove and between the first end and the second end. The limiting rib and the inner wall surface of the second end facing away from the first end form a second limiting space. The second limiting space is used to restrict the other end of the support rod, thereby locking the table body in a folded state. When the locking member is in the second position, the locking member does not interfere with the slide groove.
[0013] According to the above-mentioned technical means, the locking component swings between the first position and the second position, and forms the first limiting space and the second limiting space with the front end and the limiting rib respectively, so as to achieve bidirectional locking in the unfolded state and the folded state, ensuring that the table can be stably positioned in both states and preventing accidental movement.
[0014] In one possible implementation, the locking mechanism further includes a first elastic element connected between the locking member and the support frame. The first elastic element generates a first elastic force to hold the locking member in a first position.
[0015] According to the above-mentioned technical means, the first elastic force generated by the first elastic element enables the locking element to automatically remain in the first position, that is, the locked state, without the need for additional operation by the user to maintain the lock, reducing operation steps and improving ease of use.
[0016] In one possible implementation, the locking mechanism further includes a handle disposed on the locking member, the handle being used to drive the locking member to rotate from a first position to a second position.
[0017] Based on the above technical means, the handle design provides users with an operating force point, making it easier for users to manually drive the locking parts to rotate, making the operation more labor-saving and convenient.
[0018] In one possible implementation, the support frame is provided with a clearance opening that communicates with a slide groove, and a locking element is provided inside the clearance opening.
[0019] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the arrangement of the opening provides sufficient space for the swing of the locking component, allowing it to be rationally installed within the support frame and optimizing the spatial layout of the entire locking mechanism. It also facilitates the interaction between the locking component and the support rod to lock and position the tabletop body in both folded and unfolded states.
[0020] In one possible implementation, the tabletop body further includes a second elastic member connected between the support portion and the folding portion. The second elastic member is used to apply a second elastic force to the folding portion, and the second elastic force is used to keep the folding portion in a folded state.
[0021] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the second elastic force applied to the folding part by the second elastic element enables the folding part to automatically return to the folded state after unlocking, further simplifying the operation process and improving ease of use. It also ensures that the folding part always remains in the folded state, preventing accidental unfolding due to vehicle vibrations or other factors, thus guaranteeing the cleanliness and safety of the vehicle interior.
[0022] In one possible implementation, a damping structure is also included, which is connected between the folding portion and the support portion.
[0023] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the damping structure can control the speed at which the folding part unfolds and folds, preventing the table from popping out or folding violently due to its own weight and other factors, making the movement process smoother and improving the user's operating comfort and safety.
[0024] According to a second aspect of this application, this application provides a vehicle that includes the aforementioned table structure.
[0025] Based on the aforementioned technical means, the table structure is applied to vehicles, adding the function of a foldable table to the vehicle, meeting the diverse needs of passengers for working and dining in the vehicle, and improving the practicality and comfort of the vehicle.
[0026] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0027] (1) By setting a locking mechanism, this utility model can lock and position the table body in two states (folded or unfolded), ensuring that the table will not be accidentally unfolded or folded due to bumps or other situations during vehicle operation, thus ensuring the safety and stability of use.
[0028] (2) By setting a second elastic element, this utility model can automatically reset the folding part to the folded state after unlocking, without the user having to manually fold it. At the same time, it also ensures that the folding part is always kept in the folded state, avoiding the accidental unfolding of the folding part due to factors such as vehicle vibration, further ensuring the stability of the table body in the folded state, and effectively preventing the table body from producing abnormal noise in some situations (e.g., vehicle vibration).
[0029] (3) By setting a damping structure, this utility model can effectively control the speed of unfolding and folding of the folding part, and avoid the table board from popping out or folding violently due to its own weight and other factors, so that the movement process is more stable.

Detailed Implementation
[0037] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating this utility model and not for limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0038] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.
[0039] In the description of the embodiments in this application, the term "and / or" is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, and B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this document generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.
[0040] In the description of the embodiments of this application, the term "multiple" refers to two or more (including two).
[0041] In some embodiments, this application provides a vehicle. The specific type of vehicle is not specifically limited in this application; for example, the vehicle provided in this application can be an electric vehicle, a hybrid electric vehicle, or a solar-powered vehicle. Furthermore, the vehicle provided in this application can also be of different forms. For example, the vehicle provided in this application can be a sedan, a sport utility vehicle (SUV), or a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV).
[0042] Next, see Figures 1-6The tabletop structure provided in some embodiments of this application will be described below.
[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application proposes a table structure for a vehicle. The table structure 100 includes a table body 10 and a locking mechanism 20 connected to the table body 10. The table body 10 can switch between a folded state and an unfolded state. The locking mechanism 20 is used to lock and position the table body 10 when it is in the folded or unfolded state. It should be noted that the table body 10 described in this embodiment is the main structure for carrying items and has the function of switching between a "folded state" (stored in a corresponding position in the vehicle (e.g., in the center console or in a movable center console, etc.), without occupying interior space) and an "unfolded state" (forming a flat surface for use).
[0044] For example, the table body can be fixed to the lifting mechanism in the vehicle's center console using threaded fasteners (screws, bolts, or bolts), and its height can be adjusted along with the lifting mechanism. It is understood that users can adjust the height of the table body 10 via the lifting mechanism to accommodate the needs of passengers of different heights or usage scenarios (such as office work or dining).
[0045] Optionally, the lifting mechanism described in this embodiment may be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric telescopic rod, or an electric lifting screw, etc. The type of lifting mechanism can be selected according to the actual situation and is not limited here.
[0046] Based on this, when the table is needed, the user can control the lifting mechanism to raise the folded table body and remove it from the control box. At this time, the user can operate the locking mechanism 20 to release the locking of the table body 10 and change the table body 10 from the folded state to the unfolded state. When the table body 10 is unfolded, the locking mechanism 20 can automatically lock and position the unfolded table body 10 to prevent shaking during vehicle operation. When the table needs to be stored, the user can operate the locking mechanism 20 again to release the locking of the table body 10 in the unfolded state, and the table body 10 will change from the unfolded state to the folded state. When the table body 10 is folded, the locking mechanism 20 automatically locks the folded table body 10 to ensure the stability of the table body 10 in the folded state and prevent shaking during vehicle operation. At this time, the user can control the lifting mechanism to lower the table body 10 to its original position.
[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 1The tabletop body 10 includes a support portion 11 and at least one folding portion 12. The at least one folding portion 12 is rotatably connected to the support portion 11, and a locking mechanism 20 is connected between the support portion 11 and the folding portion 12. It should be noted that the folding portion 12 described in this embodiment can be one or more. For example, multiple folding portions 12 can be two, three, four, five, six, seven, or eight folding portions 12, etc. The specific number used can be selected according to the actual situation (such as two folding portions 12, etc.), and is not limited here.
[0048] It should be noted that the support portion 11 described in this embodiment can be a mounting base for a tabletop. This mounting base can be a square structure, fixed to the lifting mechanism, and its material can be metal or high-strength engineering plastic, possessing sufficient structural strength to support the folding portion 12 and the load. The folding portion 12 can be made of the same material as the support portion 11. Support panels 40 are respectively attached to the support portion 11 and the folding portion 12 for placing in-vehicle items (e.g., water cups, laptops, etc.). For example, the support panels 40 can be connected to the slots on the support portion 11 or the folding portion 12 via V-shaped buckles.
[0049] Additionally, it should be noted that the angle between the folding part 12 and the support part 11 after folding can be any value between 80 degrees and 90 degrees. For example, the angle between the folding part 12 and the support part 11 after folding can be 86.942 degrees.
[0050] For example, if a folding part 12 is used, the folding part 12 can be rotatably connected to one side of the support part 11 via a first rotation axis. It is understood that by setting a folding part 12, the structure is relatively simple, the number of parts is small, and it is suitable for carrying small vehicle items (such as mobile phones, water cups).
[0051] For example, if two folding sections 12 are used, the two folding sections 12 can be rotatably connected to the opposite sides or adjacent sides of the support section 11 via the first rotation axis. It can be understood that by setting two folding sections 12, a relatively large desktop can be formed after unfolding to support office needs such as laptops and document placement.
[0052] Based on this, when the tabletop is needed, the user can operate the locking mechanism 20 to release the folding part 12 locked to the support part 11 and change the folding part 12 from the folded state to the unfolded state. When the folding part 12 is unfolded, the locking mechanism 20 can automatically lock and position the unfolded folding part 12, so that the folding part 12 and the support part 11 are on the same plane, for carrying items in the vehicle. When the tabletop needs to be stored, the user can operate the locking mechanism 20 again to release the folding part 12 locked in the unfolded state and change the folding part 12 from the unfolded state to the folded state. When the folding part 12 is folded, the locking mechanism 20 automatically locks the folded folding part 12, ensuring the stability of the folding part 12 in the folded state and preventing shaking during vehicle operation.
[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The locking mechanism 20 includes a support rod 21, a support frame 22, and a locking element 23. The support frame 22 is located on the folding portion 12 and has a groove 2201. The groove 2201 has a first end and a second end at opposite ends, with the second end located on the side of the first end away from the support portion 11. One end of the support rod 21 is hinged to the support portion 11, and the other end of the support rod 21 is slidably connected to the groove 2201, allowing the other end of the support rod 21 to slide relative to the support frame 22 between the first and second ends. It should be noted that the groove 2201 described in this embodiment can be an elongated hole with opposite first and second ends.
[0054] It should be noted that the support frame 22 and the folding part 12 described in this embodiment are detachably connected. For example, the support frame 22 can be connected to the folding part 12 by means of snap-fit (such as snap-fit and slot connection), threaded fastener connection, etc., so as to facilitate the replacement and disassembly of the support frame 22.
[0055] For example, the support rod 21 described in this embodiment can be a metal support rod, and its structure can be a U-shaped structure. The two ends of the U-shaped support rod 21 are respectively hinged to the support part 11, and the bottom end of the U-shaped support rod 21 is slidably connected to the groove 2201.
[0056] Next, when the support rod 21 is at the first end, the tabletop body 10 is in the unfolded state. When the support rod 21 is at the second end, the tabletop body 10 is in the folded state. The locking member 23 is used to lock the support rod 21 when it is at either the first or second end.
[0057] For example, the locking member 23 described in this embodiment can be a permanent magnet, that is, a permanent magnet with a different magnet embedded at the end of the support rod 21 and the end of the slide groove 2201, automatically adsorbing and locking when reaching the end, and applying a pulling force to overcome the magnetic force when unlocking.
[0058] For example, the locking element 23 described in this embodiment can be a pin or a bolt. That is, the position of the support rod 21 is locked by inserting a pin or bolt.
[0059] Based on this, when the folding part 12 is in the unfolded state, the other end of the support rod 21 is at the first end. At this time, the locking member 23 locks the support rod 21 to prevent it from sliding to the second end under the weight of the folding part 12. When the folding part 12 is in the folded state, the other end of the support rod 21 is at the second end. At this time, the locking member 23 locks the support rod 21 to prevent it from sliding to the first end, thereby avoiding shaking or even abnormal noise during vehicle operation.
[0060] In some embodiments, see Figures 1-4 The locking member 23 is rotatably connected to the support frame 22 and can swing relative to the support frame 22 between a first position and a second position. The end of the locking member 23 facing the support portion 11 is the front end. It should be noted that the first position described in this embodiment can be understood as the position located at the bottom of the first end of the slide groove 2201, that is, the position where the front end of the locking member 23 contacts the bottom of the slide groove 2201. The second position can be understood as the position facing away from the bottom of the first end of the slide groove 2201, that is, there is a gap between the second position and the bottom of the groove for the other end of the support rod 21 to slide.
[0061] It should be noted that the locking member 23 described in this embodiment can be a pressure plate, which can be rotatably connected to the support frame 22 via the second rotating shaft.
[0062] When the locking member 23 is in the first position, its front end is located within the slide groove 2201 and between the first and second ends. A first limiting space 201 is formed between the front end and the inner wall surface of the first end facing away from the second end. The first limiting space 201 is used to restrict the other end of the support rod 21, thereby locking the table body 10 in the unfolded state. The locking member 23 is provided with a limiting rib 2301, which is located on the side of the front end away from the support part 11. The limiting rib 2301 is located within the slide groove 2201 and between the first and second ends. The limiting rib 2301 and the inner wall surface of the second end facing away from the first end form a second limiting space 202. The second limiting space 202 is used to restrict the other end of the support rod 21, thereby locking the table body 10 in the folded state. When the locking member 23 is in the second position, the locking member 23 does not interfere with the slide groove 2201.
[0063] Based on this, when the folding part 12 rotates and unfolds around the support part 11, it drives the support frame 22 to rotate synchronously, and the other end of the support rod 21 slides from the second end to the first end in the slide groove 2201. When the other end of the support rod 21 reaches the first end, the folding part 12 unfolds, at which time the locking member 23 swings to the first position, and the front end forms a first limiting space 201 with the inner wall surface of the first end of the slide groove 2201, which locks the other end of the support rod 21 and prevents it from sliding to the second end, thereby achieving locking of the unfolded state.
[0064] When the folding part 12 rotates and folds towards the support part 11, the support rod 21 slides from the first end to the second end. When it reaches the second end, the folding part 12 completely fits the support part 11, and the limiting rib 2301 of the locking member 23 and the inner wall surface of the second end of the slide groove 2201 form a second limiting space 202, which locks the other end of the support rod 21 and prevents it from sliding towards the first end, thereby locking the folded state.
[0065] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The locking mechanism 20 further includes a first elastic element 24, which is connected between the locking member 23 and the support frame 22. The first elastic element 24 generates a first elastic force to hold the locking member 23 in a first position. It should be noted that the number of first elastic elements 24 described in this embodiment can be one or two.
[0066] For example, the first elastic element 24 described in this embodiment can be a first torsion spring. The first torsion spring is sleeved on the second rotating shaft of the locking element 23 (pressure plate), and one end of the first torsion spring is connected to the locking element 23, and the other end is connected to the C-shaped shaft hole on the support frame 22.
[0067] Based on this, the front end of the locking member 23 and the inner wall of the first end of the slide groove 2201 form a first limiting space 201, which locks the end of the support rod 21. The first elastic member provides pre-tightening force to eliminate gaps between parts and ensure stability when loading.
[0068] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The locking mechanism 20 also includes a handle 25, which is disposed on the locking member 23 and is used to drive the locking member 23 to rotate from the first position to the second position.
[0069] For example, the handle 25 described in this embodiment can be integrally formed and connected with the locking member 23.
[0070] Based on this, the user can press the handle to drive the locking member 23 to rotate from the first position (locked) to the second position (unlocked), thereby switching the state of the table body 10.
[0071] As a possible alternative, to prevent slippage when the user operates the handle 25 with wet hands, anti-slip textures or rubber wrapping can be added to the handle 25 to improve the grip.
[0072] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The support frame 22 is provided with an clearance opening 2202, which communicates with the slide groove 2201. The locking member 23 is located within the clearance opening 2202. It can be understood that the clearance opening 2202 provides physical space for the rotation of the locking member 23, ensuring that it rotates smoothly between the first position (locked) and the second position (unlocked).
[0073] Based on this, when the handle 25 is pressed, the locking member 23 rotates around its axis within the clearance opening 2202, and its front end disengages from the support rod 21, unlocking the unfolded state. At this time, the folding part 12 automatically rotates and folds under its own gravity, and the other end of the support rod 21 slides along the first end of the slide groove 2201 to the second end. When the other end of the support rod 21 reaches the second end, the folding part 12 completely fits the support part 11, and the second limiting space 202 formed by the limiting rib 2301 of the locking member 23 and the inner wall surface of the second end of the slide groove 2201 locks the other end of the support rod 21, preventing it from sliding to the first end, thus locking the folded state.
[0074] When the folding part 12 needs to be unfolded, the user presses the handle 25, causing the locking member 23 to rotate around the axis and disengage the limiting rib 2301 from the other end of the support rod 21. Simultaneously, the user flips the folding part 12, unfolding it to be flush with the support part 11. At this time, the other end of the support rod 21 slides along the second end of the groove towards the first end. When the other end of the support rod 21 reaches the first end, the front end of the locking member 23, under the force of the first elastic member 24, remains in contact with the other end of the support rod 21, thus locking the unfolded state.
[0075] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The tabletop body 10 also includes a second elastic member 13, which is connected between the support part 11 and the folding part 12. The second elastic member 13 is used to apply a second elastic force to the folding part 12, and the second elastic force is used to keep the folding part 12 in a folded state.
[0076] For example, the second elastic element 13 described in this embodiment can be a second torsion spring, which can be sleeved on the first rotating shaft, with one end of the second torsion spring connected to the support portion 11 and the other end connected to the folding portion 12.
[0077] Understandably, the second elastic element 13 can continuously apply elastic force (such as tension or pressure) to ensure that the folded part 12 remains stably fitted in the stored state, preventing accidental unfolding or abnormal noise when the vehicle is bumpy. At the same time, the second elastic element 13 can also apply a rotating folding force to the folded part 12 when it changes from the unfolded state to the folded state, so that the folded part 12 in the unfolded state can automatically rotate and fold after the locking element 23 is released, and make it easier for the other end of the support rod 21 to slide into the second limiting space 202 formed by the limiting rib 2301 and the inner wall surface of the second end opposite to the first end, and lock the folded part 12 in the folded state.
[0078] In addition, the elastic preload of the second elastic element 13 can compensate for the accumulation of part tolerances and eliminate the assembly gap between the support part 11 and the folding part 12. For example, when the second elastic element is a torsion spring, the torque it generates keeps the folding part 12 tending to fit against the support part 11, reducing collision noise caused by vehicle vibration.
[0079] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 It also includes a damping structure 30, which is connected between the folding part 12 and the support part 11.
[0080] For example, the damping structure 30 described in this embodiment can be a damper, which is sleeved on the first rotation axis of the fold 12.
[0081] Understandably, the damping structure 30 provides viscous resistance to control the unfolding or folding speed of the folding section 12 within a safe range, preventing fingers from being pinched or items from slipping due to rapid movement. At the same time, the damping force gives the tabletop a "damped feel" when it rotates, avoiding a light and uncontrollable feeling.
[0082] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments provided to fully illustrate the present utility model, and the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art based on the present utility model are all within the protection scope of the present utility model.
