[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a liftable wireless charging device for automobiles to solve the technical problem mentioned in the background art, which is that the wireless charging module is fixed in the passage between the driver and passenger seats, which occupies a lot of space, thereby reducing storage space and providing a poor user experience for car users.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: This utility model provides a liftable wireless charging device for automobiles, including a housing, a lifting assembly, and a wireless charging module, wherein: The box is located between the driver's seat and the passenger seat of the car, and the box has an internal cavity and an opening on the top surface. The lifting assembly includes a drive component and a lifting mechanism mounted on the housing. The lifting mechanism is connected to the drive component and the wireless charging module, and is used to drive the wireless charging module to move up and down along the inner wall of the receiving cavity under the drive of the drive component. The wireless charging module has three position states: In its initial state, the top surface of the wireless charging module is flush with the top surface of the housing and closes the opening; During charging, the top surface of the wireless charging module is a first distance below the top surface of the housing; In the storage state, the top surface of the wireless charging module is lower than the top surface of the box by a second distance, and the second distance is greater than the first distance.

[0006] Based on the above technical solutions, preferably, it also includes a sensing unit, which is installed on the top surface of the wireless charging module and is used to detect whether the object placed on the wireless charging module is a mobile phone. When a mobile phone is detected, the wireless charging module switches from the initial state to the charging state; when it is not a mobile phone, the wireless charging module switches from the initial state to the storage state.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a drive shaft, two first connecting rods, and two second connecting rods. The drive shaft is rotatably mounted on the housing and arranged in a direction parallel to the width direction of the housing. The driving member is drivenly connected to the drive shaft to drive the drive shaft to rotate. The two first connecting rods are respectively fixedly connected to the drive shaft and located at both ends of the driving member. The end of the first connecting rod away from the drive shaft is slidably connected to the wireless charging module in a first direction, which is parallel to the length direction of the housing. The middle part of the second connecting rod is hinged to the middle part of the first connecting rod. One end of the second connecting rod is slidably connected to the side of the housing in the first direction, and the other end is hinged to the wireless charging module.

[0008] Based on the above technical solutions, preferably, the bottom surface of the wireless charging module is provided with a first sliding groove along the first direction, and the end of the first connecting rod away from the transmission shaft is connected to a first sliding shaft, which is slidably installed in the first sliding groove.

[0010] Based on the above technical solutions, preferably, the central axis of the second slide along its length is collinear with the axis of the transmission shaft.

[0011] Based on the above technical solutions, preferably, the wireless charging module includes a charging unit and a charging plate, wherein the charging unit is located below the charging plate and is used to charge a mobile phone placed on the charging plate.

[0012] Based on the above technical solutions, preferably, the first distance is set to 10cm and the second distance is set to 60cm.

[0013] Based on the above technical solutions, preferably, the system also includes a controller connected to the driving component and the sensing unit. The controller is used to control the driving component to drive the lifting mechanism to move when the sensing unit detects a mobile phone, so that the wireless charging module switches from the initial state to the charging state; and is also used to control the driving component to drive the lifting mechanism to move when the sensing unit detects a mobile phone, so that the wireless charging module switches from the initial state to the storage state.

[0014] The car liftable wireless charging device of this utility model has the following advantages over the prior art: (1) The lifting mechanism drives the wireless charging module to move up and down along the inner wall of the receiving cavity under the drive of the driving component. In the initial state, the top surface of the wireless charging module is flush with the top surface of the box and the opening is closed. In the charging state, the top surface of the wireless charging module is lower than the top surface of the box by a first distance. In the storage state, the top surface of the wireless charging module is lower than the top surface of the box by a second distance, and the second distance is greater than the first distance. This structure can realize the switching between wireless charging and storage functions, which is multi-functional, increases storage space, and improves the user experience of car users. (2) The sensing unit detects whether the object placed on the wireless charging module is a mobile phone. When a mobile phone is detected, the wireless charging module switches from the initial state to the charging state; when it is not a mobile phone, the wireless charging module switches from the initial state to the storage state. This allows for automatic switching based on the type of object placed on the module, improving the level of intelligence and enhancing the user experience. (3) The drive shaft is driven to rotate by the drive component, and the first connecting rod rotates around the axis of the drive shaft. At the same time, the end of the first connecting rod away from the drive shaft slides along the first direction, thereby making the wireless charging module rise and fall. Since the middle part of the second connecting rod is hinged to the middle part of the first connecting rod, the end of the second connecting rod connected to the side of the box slides synchronously along the first direction, thereby making the rise and fall of the wireless charging module more stable. (4) Since the central axis of the second slide groove along the length direction is collinear with the axis of the transmission shaft, when the driving member drives the first link to rotate, the torque on the second link is smaller when the second link slides along the first direction, thereby improving the smoothness of the sliding at the end of the second link and the reliability of the lifting of the wireless charging module. (5) By setting the first distance to 10cm, it can be adapted to the thickness of most mobile phones and can better restrict the mobile phone from sliding out of the wireless charging module, thus improving reliability. The second distance is set to 60cm to meet the requirements of good storage space. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0019] Reference Figures 1-7As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a liftable wireless charging device for automobiles, including a housing 1, a lifting assembly 2, and a wireless charging module 3, wherein: The box 1 is located between the driver's seat and the passenger seat of the car. The box 1 has an internal cavity 11 and an opening 12 on the top surface. The lifting assembly 2 includes a drive component 21 and a lifting mechanism 22 installed on the housing 1. The lifting mechanism 22 is connected to the drive component 21 and the wireless charging module 3, and is used to drive the wireless charging module 3 to move up and down along the inner wall of the receiving cavity 11 under the drive of the drive component 21. The wireless charging module 3 has three position states: In the initial state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is flush with the top surface of the housing 1 and closes the opening 12; In the charging state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is lower than the top surface of the housing 1 by a first distance; In the storage state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is lower than the top surface of the housing 1 by a second distance, and the second distance is greater than the first distance.

[0020] In the initial state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is flush with the top surface of the housing 1, making the interior flat and beautiful. When a mobile phone is placed, the system switches from the initial state to the charging state. After the mobile phone is removed, the system returns to the initial state. When miscellaneous items are placed, the system detects that no mobile phone is placed, and then switches from the initial state to the storage state.

[0021] The car-mounted wireless charging device proposed in this embodiment uses a lifting mechanism 22 driven by a drive component 21 to move the wireless charging module 3 up and down along the inner wall of the receiving cavity 11. In the initial state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is flush with the top surface of the housing 1 and the opening 12 is closed. In the charging state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is lower than the top surface of the housing 1 by a first distance. In the storage state, the top surface of the wireless charging module 3 is lower than the top surface of the housing 1 by a second distance, which is greater than the first distance. This structure can switch between wireless charging and storage functions, providing multiple uses in one space, increasing storage space, and improving the user experience for car owners.

[0022] In some embodiments, the car-mounted wireless charging device further includes a sensing unit 4, which is installed on the top surface of the wireless charging module 3. The sensing unit 4 detects whether an object placed on the wireless charging module 3 is a mobile phone. When a mobile phone is detected, the wireless charging module 3 switches from its initial state to a charging state; when it detects that it is not a mobile phone, the wireless charging module 3 switches from its initial state to a storage state. The sensing unit 4 can sense the charging sensor. When a mobile phone is detected and charging begins, the wireless charging module 3 switches from its initial state to a charging state; when it detects that it is not a mobile phone and is not charging, the wireless charging module 3 switches from its initial state to a storage state. Based on this structure, the device can automatically switch between charging and storage states depending on the type of object placed on it, improving the level of intelligence and thus enhancing the user experience.

[0023] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 22 includes a drive shaft 221, two first connecting rods 222, and two second connecting rods 223. The drive shaft 221 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1 and arranged in a direction parallel to the width direction of the housing 1. The driving member 21 is drivenly connected to the drive shaft 221 to drive the drive shaft 221 to rotate. The two first connecting rods 222 are respectively fixedly connected to the drive shaft 221 and located at both ends of the driving member 21. The end of the first connecting rod 222 away from the drive shaft 221 is slidably connected to the wireless charging module 3 in a first direction, which is parallel to the length direction of the housing 1. The middle part of the second connecting rod 223 is hinged to the middle part of the first connecting rod 222 by a pin 226. One end of the second connecting rod 223 is slidably connected to the side of the housing 1 in the first direction, and the other end is hinged to the wireless charging module 3. The lifting mechanism 22 also includes a driving gear 224 and a driven gear 225. The driving gear 224 is mounted on the output shaft of the drive member 21, and the driven gear 225 is mounted on the transmission shaft 221 and meshes with the driving gear 224, realizing the driving connection between the drive member 21 and the transmission shaft 221. The drive member 21 drives the transmission shaft 221 to rotate, causing the first connecting rod 222 to rotate around the axis of the transmission shaft 221. Simultaneously, the end of the first connecting rod 222 away from the transmission shaft 221 slides along a first direction, thereby causing the wireless charging module 3 to rise and fall. Since the middle part of the second connecting rod 223 is hinged to the middle part of the first connecting rod 222, the end of the second connecting rod 223 connected to the side of the housing 1 slides synchronously along the first direction, making the rising and falling of the wireless charging module 3 more stable.

[0024] In some embodiments, the bottom surface of the wireless charging module 3 is provided with a first sliding groove 311 along the first direction, and the end of the first connecting rod 222 away from the drive shaft 221 is connected to a first sliding shaft 2221, which is slidably installed in the first sliding groove 311. By sliding the first sliding shaft 2221 along the first sliding groove 311, the first connecting rod 222 rotates around the axis of the drive shaft 221 while the first connecting rod 222 does not translate at one end of the drive shaft 221, but moves at the end away from the drive shaft 221, thus achieving lifting and lowering without the need for a charging module.

[0025] In some embodiments, the side of the housing 1 is provided with a second sliding groove 13, the length direction of the second sliding groove 13 being parallel to the first direction. The end of the second connecting rod 223 away from the wireless charging module 3 is connected to a second sliding shaft 2231, which is slidably installed in the second sliding groove 13. The end of the second connecting rod 223 near the wireless charging module 3 is connected to a connecting shaft 2232. The bottom of the wireless charging module 3 is provided with a mounting hole 312, and the connecting shaft 2232 is rotatably installed in the mounting hole 312, realizing the hinge connection between the second connecting rod 223 and the wireless charging module 3. This allows the first connecting rod 222 to rotate around the axis of the transmission shaft 221 while simultaneously driving the second sliding shaft 2231 to slide synchronously along the second sliding groove 13, making the lifting and lowering of the wireless charging module 3 more stable.

[0026] In some embodiments, the central axis of the second slide 13 along its length is collinear with the axis of the transmission shaft 221. This arrangement ensures that when the drive member 21 drives the first connecting rod 222 to rotate, the torque on the second connecting rod 223 is smaller when it slides along the first direction, improving the smoothness of the sliding at the end of the second connecting rod 223 and the reliability of the lifting and lowering of the wireless charging module 3.

[0027] In some embodiments, the wireless charging module 3 includes a charging unit 32 and a charging plate 31. The charging unit 32 is located below the charging plate 31 and is used to charge a mobile phone placed on the charging plate 31. The sensing unit 4 is disposed on the charging plate 31. When a mobile phone is detected, the charging unit 32 is powered on and charges the mobile phone through the charging plate 31.

[0028] In some embodiments, the first distance is set to 10cm and the second distance is set to 60cm. Setting the first distance to 10cm accommodates the thickness of most mobile phones and effectively prevents the phone from sliding off the wireless charging module 3, improving reliability. Setting the second distance to 60cm provides adequate storage space.

[0029] In some embodiments, the car liftable wireless charging device further includes a controller connected to the drive unit 21 and the sensing unit 4. The controller is used to control the drive unit 21 to drive the lifting mechanism 22 to move when the sensing unit 4 detects a mobile phone, so that the wireless charging module 3 switches from the initial state to the charging state; and is also used to control the drive unit 21 to drive the lifting mechanism 22 to move when the sensing unit 4 detects a mobile phone, so that the wireless charging module 3 switches from the initial state to the storage state.

[0030] The working principle of the car liftable wireless charging device in this embodiment is as follows: the sensing unit 4 can sense the charging sensor. When a mobile phone is detected and charging begins, the controller controls the driving component 21 to drive the lifting mechanism 22, causing the wireless charging module 3 to switch from the initial state to the charging state. When it detects that it is not a mobile phone and is not charging, the controller controls the driving component 21 to drive the lifting mechanism 22, causing the wireless charging module 3 to switch from the initial state to the storage state. Based on the above structure, it can automatically switch between charging and storage states according to the type of object placed, improving the level of intelligence and thus enhancing the user experience. This device realizes the switching between wireless charging and storage functions, serving multiple purposes in one unit, increasing storage space, and improving the user experience for car users.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
