Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of handrail technology, and in particular to a handrail assembly and a vehicle having the same. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, in vehicles with high chassis, grab bars are installed on the interior panels to facilitate passenger access. These grab bars are typically fixed to the interior panels with screws. To prevent the screws from being exposed, caps are usually used to cover them. However, existing technologies usually use plugs or snap-fit ​​caps to cover them. The covering process is complicated, and plugs are often assembled using an interference fit, which makes them easy to fall off. Snap-fit ​​caps are too complex in structure and have poor assembly efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one objective of the present invention is to provide a handrail assembly in which a rotatable cover is provided. The cover can selectively support the handrail to simplify the structure, facilitate assembly, and reliably provide a blocking function.

[0004] Another objective of this invention is to provide a vehicle in which an armrest assembly as shown above is provided.

[0005] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a handrail assembly includes: a mounting base, a cover, a handrail, a pivot, and a rotating component. Two mounting bases are fixedly connected to the vehicle body at intervals, and each mounting base has a mounting groove. The cover is rotatably disposed within the mounting groove. The handrail is C-shaped, with mounting portions at both ends, and two mounting bases are correspondingly disposed on the mounting portions, which can cover the outside of the mounting base. The mounting base has a first pivot hole, and the handrail has a second pivot hole. The first and second pivot holes are coaxially arranged, and the handrail pivot passes through both the first and second pivot holes. The rotating component is disposed outside the pivot, with one end connected to the mounting base and the other end connected to the handrail. The rotating component is configured to selectively restrict the handrail to the outside of the mounting base.

[0006] According to the handrail assembly of this utility model embodiment, by connecting a plug to the mounting base and providing a corresponding mounting part on the handrail, the handrail can drive the plug to reset and be installed on the mounting base. This makes the limiting process of the plug on the mounting base simpler and the limiting effect more reliable, so that the plug can better protect the screws inside, thereby improving the reliability of the screw connection.

[0007] In some embodiments, the rotating component is a torsion spring or a damper. One end of the rotating component is provided with a first connecting portion, and the other end of the rotating component is provided with a second connecting portion. The mounting base is provided with a first connecting hole, and the armrest is provided with a second connecting hole. The first connecting portion is connected to the first connecting hole, and the second connecting portion is connected to the second connecting hole.

[0008] In some embodiments, a first connecting hole is provided on the mounting base, and a second connecting hole is provided on the handrail. The first connecting hole is adapted to provide a mounting position for the first connecting portion of the rotating component, and the second connecting hole provides a position for the second connecting portion of the rotating component. This arrangement of the first and second connecting holes allows the rotating component to be connected to the handrail and mounting base more easily, simplifying the assembly process, improving assembly efficiency, and ensuring that the resetting rotation action of the rotating component is reliably transmitted to the handrail. This allows the handrail assembly to automatically cover the outside of the mounting base after use, making the covering of the handrail assembly more reliable. In some embodiments, the bottom of the plug is provided with a first limiting part, and the bottom of the mounting base is provided with a second limiting part, and the first limiting part and the second limiting part are mutually limiting.

[0009] In some embodiments, by providing a first limiting portion at the bottom of the plug and a second limiting portion at the bottom of the mounting base, when the plug is rotated into the mounting groove, it is suitable to limit the plug by the first and second limiting portions to restrict the plug within the mounting groove, prevent unnecessary opening of the plug, and make the use of the handrail assembly reliable.

[0010] In some embodiments, the inner side of the mounting groove is provided with a slot, and the plug is selectively engaged in the slot.

[0011] In some embodiments, during the installation of the plug or during the maintenance process of flipping the handrail open, it is suitable to rotate the plug open from the mounting groove, and then the plug is suitable to be snapped into the slot so that the plug supports the handrail, so as to facilitate maintenance and other operations and improve the ease of use of the handrail assembly.

[0012] In some embodiments, the top of the mounting groove is provided with a third limiting portion, and the top of the plug is provided with a fourth limiting portion, wherein the third limiting portion is selectively restricted within the fourth limiting portion.

[0013] In some embodiments, during use, a third limiting part is provided at the top of the mounting groove, and a fourth limiting part is provided at the top of the plug. After the plug is supported and limited in the slot, it is suitable to limit the screw or assemble the mounting base. After assembly, it is suitable to allow the third limiting part to slide out from the fourth limiting part to release the support restriction of the plug on the handrail, so that the rotating member drives the handrail to rotate, thereby allowing the third limiting part to be limited in the fourth limiting part, so that the plug can be limited in the slot and then limited. After the limitation is completed, the limiting part can slide out from the limiting groove to release the limitation of the plug on the rotation of the handrail.

[0014] In some embodiments, the maximum extension length of the third limiting portion is A, the maximum extension depth of the fourth limiting portion is B, and the length A and the depth B satisfy the relationship: AB≥0.2mm.

[0015] In some embodiments, by making the length of the third limiting part greater than the length of the fourth limiting part, the plug can be engaged with the slot after being moved into the mounting part, making the support of the plug for the handrail more reliable. The length of the third limiting part is slightly greater than the length of the fourth limiting part, so that when the support of the plug for the handrail is released, the third limiting part can slide out of the fourth limiting part more easily, simplifying the operation process and improving the ease of use of the handrail assembly.

[0016] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the mounting portion is inclined to the bearing surface of the mounting base, and the inclination angle is greater than 45°.

[0017] In some embodiments, during the use of the handrail assembly, after the handrail is reset, it is suitable to press the plug into the mounting groove, and the tilt angle is set to be greater than 45° so that the plug can be pressed into the mounting groove under its own weight, thereby improving the protective effect of the plug on the screw.

[0018] In some embodiments, the maximum angle between the extending direction of the outer surface of the mounting base and the extending direction of the plug is A, and the angle A satisfies the relationship: A≤115°.

[0019] In some embodiments, the maximum angle between the end cap and the mounting base when the end cap is supported on the armrest during assembly can be considered as such. This maximum angle should not be too large; if it is, the end cap will not be properly supported within the armrest. Conversely, if the maximum angle is too small, the fit between the end cap and the armrest will be too difficult, affecting the usability of the armrest assembly. Therefore, it is suitable to set the maximum angle within 115° to allow the end cap to be supported relatively easily within the armrest, and the fitting process is relatively simple.

[0020] In some embodiments, the mounting base is provided with a plug hole, and the plug shaft is rotatably connected to the plug hole.

[0021] In some embodiments, the plug hole is adapted to provide an installation position for the connection of the plug shaft, so that the plug shaft is adapted to be rotatably connected in the plug hole, simplifying the assembly process, improving assembly efficiency, and the rotatable connection facilitates the rotation of the plug, making the use of the handrail assembly simpler and more convenient.

[0022] The vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: the armrest assembly as described above.

[0023] According to the vehicle of the present utility model embodiment, since the vehicle is provided with the armrest assembly as shown above, by connecting the plug to the mounting base and providing a corresponding mounting part on the armrest, the armrest can drive the plug to reset and be installed on the mounting base, thereby making the limiting process of the plug on the mounting base simpler and the limiting effect more reliable, so that the plug can better protect the screws inside, thereby improving the reliability of the screw connection.

[0024] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

Plug 200, plug pivot 210, first limiting part 220, fourth limiting part 230. Handrail 300, mounting part 310. Armrest pivot 400, Rotating component 500. Detailed Implementation

[0026] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, and the embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary.

[0027] The following is for reference. Figures 1-8 The handrail assembly 10 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a mounting base 100, a plug 200, a handrail 300, a handrail pivot 400, and a rotating component 500.

[0028] Specifically, there are two mounting bases 100 fixedly connected to the vehicle body at intervals, and each mounting base 100 has a mounting groove 110. The cover 200 is rotatably disposed in the mounting groove 110. The armrest 300 is C-shaped, and each end of the armrest 300 has a mounting part 310, and the two mounting bases 100 are correspondingly disposed on the mounting parts 310. The mounting parts 310 can cover the outside of the mounting base 100. The mounting base 100 has a first pivot hole, and the armrest 300 has a second pivot hole. The first pivot hole and the second pivot hole are coaxially arranged, and the armrest pivot 400 passes through the first pivot hole and the second pivot hole. The rotating member 500 is disposed on the outside of the pivot, and one end of the rotating member 500 is connected to the mounting base 100, and the other end of the rotating member 500 is connected to the armrest 300. The rotating member 500 is configured to selectively restrict the armrest 300 to the outside of the mounting base 100.

[0029] It should be noted that in vehicles with a high chassis, a boarding armrest 300 is installed on the interior panel for the convenience of passengers. The boarding armrest 300 is suitable for being fixed to the interior panel with screws. In order to avoid the screws being exposed, a plug 200 is usually used to cover them. However, in the existing technology, the plug or snap-fit ​​plug 200 is usually used to cover them. The covering process is complicated, and the plug is often assembled by interference fit, which is easy to fall off. The snap-fit ​​plug 200 method is too complicated in structure and has poor assembly efficiency.

[0030] Understandably, the armrest assembly 10 is suitable to include: a mounting base 100, a plug 200, an armrest 300, an armrest pivot 400, and a rotating component 500. The mounting base 100 provides a mounting position so that the armrest assembly 10 can be positioned appropriately on the vehicle body as designed, thereby allowing the armrest assembly 10 to be used while concealed outside the screws as designed. Meanwhile, a mounting groove 110 is provided on the mounting base 100. The mounting groove 110 is adapted to be positioned opposite to the plug 200. Since the plug 200 is adapted to be rotatably connected to the mounting base 100 during use, the assembly process is simplified and the assembly efficiency is improved. During the assembly process, the plug 200 is adapted to support the handrail 300. After the assembly is completed, the handrail 300 is adapted to rotate and cover the outside of the screw. Specifically, since the plug 200 releases the supporting role between itself and the handrail 300, the handrail 300 is adapted to be reset and rotate, and drive the plug 200 to rotate together, so that the plug 200 can be placed in the mounting groove 110, thereby enabling the plug 200 to cover the screw.

[0031] Furthermore, since the cap 200 is suitable for rotatably connecting to the mounting base 100, this rotatable connection simplifies the movement process, improves reset efficiency, and allows the cap 200 to be positioned within the mounting groove 110 as designed to shield the screws, making the armrest assembly 10 more reliable. Moreover, mounting portions 310 are constructed at both ends of the armrest 300. By arranging the two mounting portions 310 opposite to the mounting base 100, the armrest 300 can connect to the mounting bases 100 on both sides, while also allowing the armrest 300 to effectively drive the caps 200 on both sides to reset and shield the screws, thus protecting the screw connection on the interior panel and making the screw connection more reliable.

[0032] In addition, a first pivot hole is provided on the mounting base 100, and a second pivot hole is provided on the armrest 300. The first pivot hole and the second pivot hole are coaxially arranged so that the armrest pivot 400 can be assembled by being set in the first pivot hole and the second pivot hole. A rotating member 500 is also provided on the outside of the armrest pivot 400. One end of the rotating member 500 is set on the mounting base 100, and the other end of the rotating member 500 is adapted to be connected to the armrest 300 so that the rotating member 500 drives the armrest 300 and the mounting base 100 to move relative to each other. Since the mounting base 100 is adapted to be fixedly connected to the vehicle body, the rotating member 500 is adapted to drive the armrest 300 to rotate relative to each other and reset. After the reset is completed, the armrest 300 is adapted to drive the plug 200 to cover the outside of the mounting groove 110 to cover the screws.

[0033] According to the handrail assembly 10 of this utility model embodiment, by connecting a plug 200 to the mounting base 100 and providing a corresponding mounting part 310 on the handrail 300, the handrail 300 can drive the plug 200 to reset and be installed on the mounting base 100. This makes the limiting process of the plug 200 on the mounting base 100 simpler and the limiting effect more reliable, so that the plug 200 can better protect the screws inside it, thereby improving the reliability of the screw connection.

[0034] In some embodiments, the rotating component 500 is a torsion spring or a damper. One end of the rotating component 500 is provided with a first connecting portion, and the other end of the rotating component 500 is provided with a second connecting portion. The mounting base 100 is provided with a first connecting hole, and the handrail 300 is provided with a second connecting hole. The first connecting portion is connected to the first connecting hole, and the second connecting portion is connected to the second connecting hole. It is understood that during the use of the rotating component 500, it is only necessary to provide a rotational driving effect as needed. Therefore, the rotating component 500 can be selectively set as either a torsion spring or a damper. Specifically, it can be selected according to the specific reset setting requirements of the subsequent handrail assembly 10, which will not be elaborated here. Specifically, a first connecting hole is provided on the mounting base 100, and a second connecting hole is provided on the handrail 300. The first connecting hole is suitable for providing an installation position for the first connecting part of the rotating component 500, and the second connecting hole can provide a position for the second connecting part of the rotating component 500. The rotating component 500 can be connected through the arrangement of the first and second connecting holes, so as to complete the assembly connection with the handrail 300 and the mounting base 100 in a simpler way, simplifying the assembly process, improving assembly efficiency, and allowing the reset rotation action of the rotating component 500 to be reliably transmitted to the handrail 300. As a result, after the handrail assembly 10 is used, the cover 200 is automatically placed on the outside of the mounting base 100, making the covering of the handrail assembly 10 more reliable.

[0035] In some embodiments, the bottom of the cover 200 is provided with a first limiting portion 220, and the bottom of the mounting base 100 is provided with a second limiting portion 120. The first limiting portion 220 and the second limiting portion 120 are mutually limiting. In this way, by providing the first limiting portion 220 at the bottom of the cover 200 and the second limiting portion 120 at the bottom of the mounting base 100, when the cover 200 rotates into the mounting groove 110, it is suitable to limit the cover 200 by the first limiting portion 220 and the second limiting portion 120, so as to restrict the cover 200 within the mounting groove 110, prevent the cover 200 from opening unnecessarily, and make the use of the handrail assembly 10 reliable.

[0036] In some embodiments, the inner side of the mounting groove 110 is provided with a slot 103, and the cover 200 is selectively engaged in the slot 103. It is understood that during the installation of the cover 200, or during the maintenance process of the handrail 300 being flipped open, it is suitable to rotate the cover 200 out of the mounting groove 110, and then the cover 200 is suitable to be engaged in the slot 103 so that the cover 200 supports the handrail 300, so as to facilitate maintenance and other operations and improve the ease of use of the handrail assembly 10.

[0037] In some embodiments, the top of the mounting groove 110 is provided with a third limiting portion 104, and the top of the plug 200 is provided with a fourth limiting portion 230, wherein the third limiting portion 104 is selectively restricted within the fourth limiting portion 230. In other words, during use, a third limiting part 104 is provided at the top of the mounting groove 110, and a fourth limiting part 230 is provided at the top of the plug 200. After the plug 200 is supported and restricted in the slot 103, it is suitable for limiting the screw or assembling the mounting base 100. After assembly, it is suitable for the third limiting part 104 to slide out from the fourth limiting part 230 to release the support restriction of the plug 200 on the handrail 300, so that the rotating part 500 drives the handrail 300 to rotate, thereby allowing the third limiting part 104 to be restricted in the fourth limiting part 230, so that the plug 200 can be restricted in the slot 103, and then it is suitable for restricting it. After the restriction is completed, the third limiting part 104 can slide out from the fourth limiting part 230 to release the restriction of the plug 200 on the rotation of the handrail 300.

[0038] In some embodiments, the maximum extension length of the third limiting part 104 is A, and the maximum extension depth of the fourth limiting part 230 is B. The length A and the depth B satisfy the relationship: AB ≥ 0.2 mm. It can be understood that by making the length of the third limiting part 104 greater than the length of the fourth limiting part 230, the cover 200 can engage with the slot 103 after moving into the mounting part 310, making the support of the cover 200 for the handrail 300 more reliable. On the other hand, by making the length of the third limiting part 104 slightly greater than the fourth limiting part 230, the third limiting part 104 can slide out of the fourth limiting part 230 more easily when the support of the cover 200 for the handrail 300 is released, simplifying the operation process and improving the ease of use of the handrail assembly 10.

[0039] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the mounting portion 310 is inclined to the bearing surface of the mounting base 100, with an inclination angle greater than 45°. In this way, during use of the handrail assembly 10, after the handrail 300 is reset, the cap 200 is pressed into the mounting groove 110. Setting the inclination angle to greater than 45° allows the cap 200 to be pressed into the mounting groove 110 under its own weight, thereby enhancing the protection of the cap 200 for the screws.

[0040] In some embodiments, the maximum angle between the extending direction of the outer surface of the mounting base 100 and the extending direction of the cover 200 is A, and the angle A satisfies the relationship: A≤115°. That is, during the assembly process, the angle between the cover 200 and the mounting base 100 when the cover 200 is supported on the armrest 300 can be considered as the maximum angle. The maximum angle should not be too large. If the maximum angle is too large, the cover 200 will not be able to be properly supported within the armrest 300. If the maximum angle is too small, the fit between the cover 200 and the armrest 300 will be too difficult, thus affecting the use of the armrest assembly 10. Therefore, it is suitable to set the maximum angle within 115° so that the cover 200 can be easily supported within the armrest 300, and the fitting process is relatively simple.

[0041] In some embodiments, the mounting base 100 is provided with a plug hole 130, and the plug shaft 210 is rotatably connected within the plug hole 130. It is understood that the plug hole 130 is adapted to provide an installation position for the connection of the plug shaft 210, allowing the plug shaft 210 to be rotatably connected within the plug hole 130, simplifying the assembly process, improving assembly efficiency, and facilitating the rotation of the plug 200, thus making the use of the handrail assembly 10 simpler and more convenient.

[0042] The vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: the armrest assembly 10 as described above. Thus, since the vehicle is equipped with the armrest assembly 10 as shown above, and a plug 200 is connected to the mounting base 100, and a corresponding mounting portion is provided on the armrest 300, the armrest 300 can drive the plug 200 to reset and be installed on the mounting base 100. This simplifies the process of restricting the plug 200 on the mounting base 100, improves the restrictive effect, and allows the plug 200 to better protect the screws located therein, thereby improving the reliability of screw connection.

[0043] Other components and operations of the vehicle according to embodiments of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0044] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiment," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment or example, which are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example.
