Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive dashboards, specifically a combined automotive dashboard. Background Technology

[0002] The car dashboard is a device that reflects the operating status of various vehicle systems. Common indicators include fuel gauges, washer fluid gauges, electronic throttle indicator, front and rear fog light indicators, and warning lights. While the specific gauges vary between cars, common gauges in most vehicles include speedometers, tachometers, oil pressure gauges, coolant temperature gauges, fuel gauges, and charging gauges. Modern car dashboards incorporate various indicator lights and warning lights under the dashboard panel. Car gauges require voltage regulators to stabilize the power supply voltage and suppress fluctuations, ensuring the accuracy of the instruments. Furthermore, most instrument displays rely on sensors; these sensors change their resistance based on changes in the state of the monitored object, which is then displayed on the instrument panel.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221366579U describes a combined automotive instrument panel. A cover prevents dust from settling on the dashboard. Fine adjustments are made via an electric push rod at the top or bottom, which rotates a connecting block on one side of the dashboard to adjust the angle of the dashboard, making it easier for the driver to observe.

[0004] While the aforementioned patent can cover the dashboard to prevent dust from settling on it, the driver needs to lift the cover while driving. Since the cover is located below the dashboard, it will rest against the steering wheel support column after being lifted, which will hinder the driver's operation (such as turning on the windshield wipers, turn signals, etc.).

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 In this embodiment of the present invention, a combined automotive instrument panel includes an instrument panel body 1, which is installed and fixed on the center console of the vehicle. A protective mechanism 2 is disposed on the outside of the instrument panel body 1 for protecting the instrument panel body 1. The protective mechanism 2 includes a cover plate 21 that is inserted into the instrument panel body 1. A pressing component 22 is disposed between the two ends of the cover plate 21. A connecting block 211 is fixedly connected to both ends of the cover plate 21. The pressing component 22 includes two symmetrical compression members that are fixed to the connecting blocks 211 at corresponding positions. A moving member is rotatably connected between the two compression members.

[0032] Specifically, firstly, the instrument panel body 1 is installed and fixed on the center console of the car. When the driver is driving, the instrument panel body 1 is in working condition. The driver needs to check the vehicle's status through the information displayed on the instrument panel body 1. At this time, the cover plate 21 can be pulled towards the driver, and then the cover plate 21 moves the clamping assembly 22 upward (to facilitate the driver's viewing of the instrument panel body 1, it is usually installed vertically on the center console of the vehicle). After the cover plate 21 moves to the top of the instrument panel body 1, it is rotated towards the back of the instrument panel body 1, so that the cover plate 21 is rotated to the back of the instrument panel body 1. At this time, the instrument panel body 1 is in working condition. There are no obstructions on the front of the instrument panel body 1, so it will not affect the driver's normal driving. When the driver stops the engine and gets out of the car, the operation can be reversed. First, move the cover 21 to the highest position, and then rotate it in the opposite direction so that the cover 21 is rotated to the front of the instrument panel body 1. Then, align the cover 21 with the instrument panel body 1 and slowly bring the cover 21 closer to the instrument panel body 1 so that the instrument panel body 1 enters the interior of the cover 21. This can prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the instrument panel body 1 if the driver forgets to close the window, which could cause internal wiring failure. It can also prevent dust from entering the instrument panel body 1 during long periods of parking.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the compression component includes a cylindrical tube 221, a sleeve rod 222, which is slidably sleeved inside the cylindrical tube 221 at the corresponding position and fixed to the connecting block 211 at the corresponding position, and a spring, which is fixedly connected between the cylindrical tube 221 at the corresponding position and the sleeve rod 222 at the corresponding position.

[0035] In this embodiment, the sleeve 222 slides inside the cylindrical tube 221 at the corresponding position, which allows the cover plate 21 to detach from the instrument panel body 1. The cover plate 21 can cover the instrument panel body 1 by the action of the spring.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a fixing ring 223 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cylindrical tube 221, and a fixing sleeve 224 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing ring 223. The moving part includes a sliding plate 225, which slides on the back of the instrument panel body 1. Two symmetrical connecting rods 226 are fixedly connected to both ends of the sliding plate 225 and are rotatably connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve 224 at the corresponding positions. A connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to both ends of the back of the instrument panel body 1. A sliding hole 12 for the sliding plate 225 to slide through is opened on one side of the connecting plate 11. Two symmetrical limiting blocks 227 that are in contact with the connecting plate 11 are fixedly connected to both ends of the outer side of the sliding plate 225.

[0038] In this embodiment, by sliding the slide plate 225 up and down within the two sliding holes 12, the cover plate 21 can be flipped to the back of the instrument panel body 1, which can prevent the cover plate 21 from affecting the driver's operation while driving. The limiting block 227 can prevent the slide plate 225 from sliding laterally between the two sliding holes 12.

[0039] Example 3

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, mounting legs 13 that are fixed to the car center console are fixedly connected to the four corners of the back of the instrument panel body 1. A through hole 212 is opened through the front of the cover plate 21. A miniature fan 213 is installed in the through hole 212. Two symmetrical rectangular frames 214 are fixedly connected to the front of the cover plate 21. A sealing plate 215 that contacts the cover plate 21 is slidably connected between the two rectangular frames 214.

[0041] In this embodiment, the mounting leg 13 facilitates the installation of the instrument panel body 1 by the operator. The miniature fan 213 dissipates heat from the instrument panel body 1 during operation (the miniature fan 213 can be powered by an external power source, such as a power bank, or by directly connecting the wires of the miniature fan 213 to the wiring inside the vehicle). The sealing plate 215 can block the through hole 212 to prevent dust from entering the instrument panel body 1 through the through hole 212 while the vehicle is parked. When the instrument panel body 1 is working, the sealing plate 215 can be moved to one side of the cover plate 21, allowing the through hole 212 to be exposed, facilitating the cooling of the instrument panel body 1 by the miniature fan 213.

[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0043] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
