Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to a clamp structure for combining a vehicle-mounted insulated box and a spare tire cover. Background Technology

[0002] In scenarios such as camping and outdoor travel, a proposed approach is to combine a vehicle-mounted insulated box with a spare tire cover to form a folding table for convenient use. The core of this approach lies in achieving a quick and stable fixation between the insulated box and the spare tire cover. Existing fixing structures between insulated boxes and spare tire covers often employ gears and other precision transmission components, which are not only complex and costly to manufacture, but also prone to failure due to environmental factors such as outdoor dust and vibration. Furthermore, these fixing structures are often pre-installed, requiring complex installation structures to be pre-designed on the top cover of the insulated box and the spare tire cover, sometimes even necessitating specific modifications to the spare tire cover. This makes it difficult to be compatible with different models of insulated boxes or covers, resulting in poor product versatility and market adaptability. Utility Model Content

[0003] Based on the above, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a clamp structure for combining a vehicle-mounted insulated box and a spare tire cover, which solves the problems of complex and poor adaptability of existing fixing structures, and realizes efficient and universal fixing between the vehicle-mounted insulated box and the spare tire cover.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A clamping structure for assembling a vehicle-mounted insulated box and a spare tire cover is disclosed. Several bases are mounted on two opposite sides of the top of the insulated box. A top cover is mounted on each base, forming an installation cavity between the top cover and the base. A guide groove is provided within the installation cavity, and a guide rod is positioned within the guide groove. A stop block is provided at one end of the guide rod, and a compression spring is fitted onto the guide rod. One end of the compression spring abuts against the stop block, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the guide groove. The other end of the guide rod extends out of the base and is fitted with a connecting block. A clamping claw is provided on the connecting block, and the clamping claws on both sides cooperate to clamp the spare tire cover, thus fixing the spare tire cover to the vehicle-mounted insulated box.

[0006] As an optional solution, the top surface of the vehicle-mounted insulated box is provided with mounting grooves corresponding to the mounting positions of each base. The base is interference-fitted into the mounting groove, or the base is fixed to the bottom of the mounting groove with screws.

[0007] As an alternative, the top cover provides support for the bottom of the spare tire cover, and the top cover is equipped with an anti-slip structure to increase friction with the spare tire cover.

[0008] As an alternative, the anti-slip structure can be an anti-slip pad installed on the surface of the cover, a silicone coating applied to the surface of the cover, or anti-slip textures on the surface of the cover.

[0009] As an alternative, the gripper and the connecting block are rotatably connected by a pin, and the rotation angle of the gripper relative to the connecting block is 0° to 120°.

[0010] As an alternative, a torsion spring is fitted onto the pin, which provides a restoring force for the gripper to rotate toward the connecting block.

[0011] As an alternative, the top cover is provided with a slot, and the grippers can be engaged in the slot when the spare tire cover is not being held.

[0012] As an alternative, the top cover and base can be snapped together or detachably connected by screws.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] The combination of the vehicle-mounted insulated box and spare tire cover uses a clamping structure that achieves clamping and releasing actions through the coordinated action of compression springs and grippers. This simplifies the connection method between the vehicle-mounted insulated box and spare tire cover, and the aftermarket design does not require large-scale modifications to the vehicle-mounted insulated box and spare tire cover, reducing production and modification costs. It is also compatible with various models of spare tire covers, significantly improving product adaptability and ease of use. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0023] In the description of this embodiment, terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0024] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are merely used to distinguish between different terms in description and do not have any special meaning.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a clamping structure for combining a vehicle-mounted insulated box and a spare tire cover. Several bases 1 are installed on the two opposite sides of the top of the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12. A top cover 2 is provided on each base 1, forming an installation cavity between the top cover 2 and the base 1. A guide groove 3 is provided in the installation cavity, and a guide rod 4 is provided in the guide groove 3. A stop block 5 is provided at one end of the guide rod 4, and a compression spring 6 is sleeved on the guide rod 4. One end of the compression spring 6 abuts against the stop block 5, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the guide groove 3. The other end of the guide rod 4 extends out of the base 1 and is provided with a connecting block 7. A clamping claw 8 is provided on the connecting block 7. The clamping claws 8 on both sides cooperate to clamp the spare tire cover 14, thereby fixing the spare tire cover 14 to the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12.

[0026] Thus, the clamping and releasing actions are achieved through the coordinated action of the compression spring 6 and the gripper 8, simplifying the connection between the vehicle insulation box 12 and the spare tire cover 14, eliminating gears and other delicate transmission components, and relying solely on the basic mechanical structure and the elasticity of the compression spring 6 to complete the action, reducing the risk of failure and ensuring long-term stable use; the aftermarket design does not require large-scale modification of the vehicle insulation box 12 and the spare tire cover 14, reducing production and modification costs, and is compatible with multiple models of spare tire covers 14, significantly improving product adaptability and ease of use.

[0027] In some embodiments, the top surface of the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 is provided with mounting grooves 13 corresponding to the mounting positions of each base 1, and the base 1 is interference-fitted into the mounting groove 13, or the base 1 is fixed to the bottom of the mounting groove 13 by screws.

[0028] The vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 here only needs to have a pre-reserved mounting groove 13 on the top. The base 1 is detachably fixed in the mounting groove 13. There is no need to perform complex pre-installation processing on the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12. Existing insulated boxes can be upgraded without redesigning the mold, which reduces production and user modification costs. The spare tire cover 14 does not need any modification, and it can be universally adapted to multiple models of spare tire cover 14, expanding the scope of application.

[0029] In some embodiments, the upper cover 2 provides support for the bottom of the spare tire cover 14, and the upper cover 2 is provided with an anti-slip structure to increase the friction with the spare tire cover 14, thereby improving the stability of the spare tire cover 14 in the clamping state of the gripper 8, reducing the clamping force requirement, and meeting the functional requirements of bearing and moving during use.

[0030] Furthermore, the anti-slip structure can be an anti-slip pad 9 installed on the surface of the top cover 2, or a silicone coating applied to the surface of the top cover 2, or an anti-slip texture set on the surface of the top cover 2, or other designs.

[0031] In some embodiments, the gripper 8 and the connecting block 7 are rotatably connected by a pin 10, and the rotation angle of the gripper 8 relative to the connecting block 7 is 0° to 120°.

[0032] The rotatable design of the gripper 8 facilitates the switching of the gripper 8 state. When it is necessary to grip the spare tire cover 14, the gripper 8 unfolds to grip the side edge of the spare tire cover 14; when it is not necessary to grip the spare tire cover 14, the gripper 8 retracts to avoid protruding from the vehicle insulation box 12, making it more flexible to use.

[0033] Furthermore, a torsion spring is fitted on the pin 10. The torsion spring is used to provide a restoring force for the gripper 8 to rotate toward the connecting block 7, thereby enabling the gripper 8 to fit tightly against the spare tire cover plate 14 and improving the clamping effect.

[0034] Furthermore, the upper cover 2 is provided with a slot 11, and the gripper 8 can be locked in the slot 11 when not holding the spare tire cover 14, thereby preventing the gripper 8 from rotating at will when not in use.

[0035] In some embodiments, the upper cover 2 and the base 1 are snap-fitted together or detachably connected by screws, thereby facilitating fault maintenance of the internal guide rod 4, compression spring 6, stop block 5, etc.

[0036] Installation method:

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the top of the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 has a pre-set mounting groove 13. The vehicle-mounted insulated box and the spare tire cover are combined and installed in the mounting groove 13 using a clamping structure. After installation, the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 does not require any other processing and is compatible with the production and modification of existing vehicle-mounted insulated boxes 12.

[0038] How to use:

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, when it is necessary to fix the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 and the spare tire cover 14, manually unfold the clamp 8 and pull the clamp 8 outward, and the compression spring 6 is further compressed; place the spare tire cover 14 on the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 at the preset position, release the clamp 8, the compression spring 6 returns to its original position, and drive the clamps 8 on both sides to cooperate in clamping the spare tire cover 14. At the same time, the anti-slip structure prevents the spare tire cover 14 from moving, ensuring that the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 and the spare tire cover 14 are firmly connected.

[0040] Storage status:

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, when not in use, the gripper 8 can retract into the mounting groove 13 under the action of the compression spring 6, and the gripper 8 can be locked in the slot 11 to avoid abnormal opening, reduce space occupation, and facilitate the storage and carrying of the vehicle insulated box 12.

[0042] Scene adaptation:

[0043] The clamp structure for combining the vehicle-mounted insulated box and the spare tire cover is specially designed for the combination of the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 and the spare tire cover 14. In camping scenarios, the spare tire cover 14 and the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12 can be quickly fixed together to meet the carrying needs of food, tableware and other items. At the same time, after the two are firmly combined, they can be towed together with the wheels of the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12, which improves the convenience of movement.

[0044] In summary, the clamp structure for combining the vehicle-mounted insulated box and spare tire cover has the following advantages:

[0045] ①Simplified and efficient structure: The complex structure is eliminated, and basic components such as compression spring 6, guide rod 4, and gripper 8 are used to reduce manufacturing costs, reduce the risk of failure, and improve durability in outdoor environments;

[0046] ② Convenient retrofit design: Only a mounting groove 13 needs to be reserved on the vehicle-mounted insulated box 12, without complicated pre-installation processing, which facilitates the modification and upgrading of existing vehicle-mounted insulated boxes 12 and reduces production and modification costs;

[0047] ③ Spare tire cover 14 universal compatibility: Spare tire cover 14 can be fixed with the vehicle insulated box and spare tire cover combination using a clamp structure without any modification. It is compatible with multiple models of spare tire cover 14, which significantly improves product compatibility and user convenience.

[0048] ④ Quick and flexible operation: The compression spring 6 drives the gripper 8 to automatically and quickly unfold or retract, meeting the needs of quick assembly, fixation and disassembly in outdoor scenarios and improving user experience.

[0049] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
