[0026] The specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the storage box 100 provided in this embodiment in practical application.

[0028] The storage box 100 provided in this embodiment is applied to the armrest box of a vehicle. Specifically, it includes a housing assembly 110 and a cover assembly 120. The housing assembly 110 is disposed in the armrest box, and the cover assembly 120 is disposed inside the housing assembly 110 for closing or opening the housing assembly 110.

[0029] Specifically, the housing assembly 110 has a receiving cavity, a top opening 111, and a storage compartment 112. The top opening 111 and the storage compartment 112 are located on the upper and lower sides of the receiving cavity, respectively. The storage compartment 112 is recessed relative to the lower cavity wall of the receiving cavity, forming a storage space with an upper opening.

[0030] The cover assembly 120 is movably disposed within the accommodating cavity and is used to move between the closed and open states under force. In the closed state, the cover assembly 120 closes the top opening 111 and the storage compartment 112; in the open state, the cover assembly 120 opens the top opening 111 and the storage compartment 112.

[0031] In this embodiment, the cover assembly 120 slides into the inner wall of the housing assembly 110 to form a sliding structure. When the cover assembly 120 is in the closed state, it can slide under force to penetrate deep into the interior of the housing assembly 110, thus switching to the open state, that is, opening the top opening 111 and the storage compartment 112.

[0032] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 , Figure 2 The diagram shown is an exploded view of the storage box 100.

[0033] The housing assembly 110 includes an upper housing 117 and a lower housing 118. The upper housing 117 covers the lower housing 118 and is connected to the lower housing 118 to form a receiving cavity. A top opening 111 is provided in the upper housing 117, and a storage compartment 112 is provided in the lower housing 118.

[0034] The cover assembly 120 includes an outer cover plate 121 and an inner cover plate 122. The outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 are connected. In the closed state, the outer cover plate 121 closes the top opening 111 and the inner cover plate 122 closes the storage compartment 112. In the open state, the outer cover plate 121 opens the top opening 111 and the inner cover plate 122 opens the storage compartment 112.

[0035] It is understood that the connection between the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 can be either a direct connection between the two bodies or an indirect connection through other intermediate connecting parts. Preferably, in this embodiment, the cover assembly 120 further includes a connecting rod 123, through which the outer cover plate 121 is connected to the inner cover plate 122.

[0036] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the storage box 100 when the lid assembly 120 is in the closed state. Figure 4 The diagram shows the structure of the storage box 100 when the lid assembly 120 is in the open state.

[0037] In this embodiment, the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 are distributed vertically and slide in cooperation with the inner sidewall of the upper housing 117 respectively. When the cover assembly 120 is in the closed or open state, one of the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 slides in the accommodating cavity when subjected to external force, and drives the other one of them to slide synchronously through the connecting rod 123, so as to realize the switching of the state of the cover assembly 120.

[0038] It is understood that the sliding paths of the outer cover 121 and the inner cover 122 within the accommodating cavity are located between the upper housing 117 and the lower housing 118, and also between the top opening 111 and the storage compartment 112. When the cover assembly 120 is in the open state, the user can store items in the storage compartment 112 through the top opening 111. When the storage compartment 112 contains few items, the height of the items will not exceed the opening of the storage compartment 112, and will not interfere with the sliding path of the inner cover 122. In this case, the inner cover 122 can smoothly close the storage compartment 112, that is, the cover assembly 120 can smoothly switch from the open state to the closed state.

[0039] When the storage compartment 112 is overfilled, the height of the items exceeds the opening of the storage compartment 112, interfering with the sliding path of the inner cover 122. Figure 1 As shown in the diagram. In this situation, the inner cover 122 is blocked by the items and cannot smoothly close the storage compartment 112, which also prevents the outer cover 121 from smoothly closing the top opening 111, meaning the cover assembly 120 cannot smoothly switch to the closed state. At this time, the user can reopen the cover assembly 120 and adjust the items in the storage compartment 112 until the height of the items no longer interferes with the sliding path of the inner cover 122. After that, the inner cover 122 can smoothly close the storage compartment 112, meaning the cover assembly 120 can smoothly switch to the closed state.

[0040] It is evident that when there are too many items in the storage compartment 112, the lid assembly 120 cannot switch from the open to the closed state, prompting the user to clear the items from the storage compartment 112. Conversely, when the lid assembly 120 successfully switches from the open to the closed state, it indicates that the quantity or height of the items in the storage compartment 112 is reasonable, and the lid assembly 120 can smoothly switch from the closed to the open state, without items obstructing the outer cover 121 and preventing the storage box 100 from opening.

[0041] Therefore, the storage box 100 provided in this embodiment can prevent the cover assembly 120 from closing when too many items are stored in the storage compartment 112, so as to ensure that the cover assembly 120 can be opened smoothly when closed.

[0042] In this embodiment, the accommodating cavity has a front-to-back receiving section 113 and a release section 114, and the accommodating cavity is inclined upward from the receiving section 113 to the release section 114. The top opening 111 and the storage compartment 112 are located on the upper and lower sides of the release section 114. In the open state, the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 are located inside the receiving section 113.

[0043] It should be noted that in this embodiment, "front" refers to the direction in which the front of the vehicle is facing, "rear" refers to the direction in which the vehicle is parked, and "the front and rear distribution of the receiving section 113 and the releasing section 114 of the accommodating cavity" means that the receiving section 113 is closer to the front of the vehicle than the releasing section 114.

[0044] The cover assembly 120 can move between the storage section 113 and the release section 114 under force. When the cover assembly 120 moves to the release section 114, the outer cover plate 121 closes the top opening 111, and the inner cover plate 122 closes the storage compartment 112. When the cover assembly 120 moves to the storage section 113, the storage section 113 realizes the storage of the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122, the outer cover plate 121 opens the top opening 111, and the inner cover plate 122 opens the storage compartment 112.

[0045] In this embodiment, in the front-to-back direction, the front end of the top opening 111 is further away from the storage section 113 than the storage compartment 112. In other words, in the closed state, the front end of the outer cover 121 is further away from the storage section 113 than the inner cover 122.

[0046] During the movement of the cover assembly 120 from the closed state to the open state, the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 move synchronously. After at least part of the storage compartment 112 is opened by the inner cover plate 122, the front end of the outer cover plate 121 reaches above the storage compartment 112. When there are many items stored in the storage compartment 112, the movement of the inner cover plate 122 can also push and press down on the items near the opening of the storage compartment 112, preventing items in the storage compartment 112 from protruding from the storage compartment 112 and obstructing the movement of the outer cover plate 121 when it reaches the vicinity of the opening of the storage compartment 112.

[0047] In this embodiment, a first slide groove 115 and a second slide groove 116 are respectively provided on the inner sidewall of the housing assembly 110. Preferably, the first slide groove 115 and the second slide groove 116 are both provided on the inner sidewall of the upper housing 117 and are located between the storage compartment 112 and the top opening 111. The first slide groove 115 is located below the second slide groove 116, and both the first slide groove 115 and the second slide groove 116 extend from the storage section 113 to the release section 114.

[0048] Please refer to the following: Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the outer cover plate 121. Figure 6 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the inner cover plate 122.

[0049] Preferably, in this embodiment, the inner cover plate 122 is slidably engaged with the first slide groove 115. In fact, a first front guide rod 1221 protrudes from the front side wall of the inner cover plate 122, and a first rear guide rod 1222 protrudes from the rear side wall. Both the first front guide rod 1221 and the first rear guide rod 1222 extend into the first slide groove 115 and are slidably engaged with the first slide groove 115, so that the plane of the inner cover plate 122 is parallel to the first slide groove 115.

[0050] The front end of the outer cover plate 121 is slidably engaged with the second slide groove 116, and the rear end is slidably engaged with the first slide groove 115. In fact, a second front guide rod 1211 protrudes from the side wall of the front end of the outer cover plate 121, and the second front guide rod 1211 extends into the second slide groove 116 and is slidably engaged with the second slide groove 116; a second rear guide rod 1212 protrudes from the side wall of the rear end of the outer cover plate 121, and the second rear guide rod 1212 extends into the first slide groove 115 and is slidably engaged with the first slide groove 115.

[0051] It should be noted that the plane where the top opening 111 is located is roughly horizontal, while the plane where the opening of the storage compartment 112 is located is at an angle to the horizontal plane. Furthermore, the opening of the storage compartment 112 slopes upward from the end near the storage section 113 to the end away from the storage section 113. Correspondingly, the extension direction of the first slide 115 is roughly parallel to the plane where the opening of the storage compartment 112 is located.

[0052] The portion of the second slide 116 located in the receiving section 113 is approximately parallel to the first slide 115, forming a small angle with the horizontal plane. The portion of the second slide 116 located in the release section 114 forms an angle with the portion located in the receiving section 113 and transitions smoothly, while the portion located in the release section 114 forms a larger angle with the horizontal plane.

[0053] Please refer to the following: Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the cover assembly 120 in the closed state. Figure 8 The diagram shows the structure of the cover assembly 120 in the open state.

[0054] It is understandable that during the process of the cover assembly 120 moving from the closed state to the open state, the second rear guide rod 1212 of the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 always slide along the first slide groove 115, while the second front guide rod 1211 of the outer cover plate 121 slides successively along the second slide groove 116 in the release section 114 and in the storage section 113. During this process, the outer cover plate 121 deflects in the vertical plane under the guidance of the second slide groove 116, reducing the angle between it and the inner cover plate 122 until it is stored together with the inner cover plate 122 in the storage section 113.

[0055] During the process of the cover assembly 120 moving from the open state to the closed state, the second rear guide rod 1212 of the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 always slide along the first slide groove 115, while the second front guide rod 1211 of the outer cover plate 121 slides successively along the portion of the second slide groove 116 in the storage section 113 and the portion in the release section 114. During this process, the outer cover plate 121 deflects in the vertical plane under the guidance of the second slide groove 116, which increases the angle between it and the inner cover plate 122, while the angle between it and the horizontal plane gradually decreases until the top opening 111 is closed in an approximately horizontal state.

[0056] In other words, the angle between the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 in the closed state is greater than the angle between the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 in the open state. This allows the cover assembly 120 to be stored in the storage section 113 of the accommodating cavity with a smaller volume when it moves to the open state, thereby reducing the volume occupied by the storage box 100 on the armrest box.

[0057] Please refer to the following: Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 , Figure 9 As shown Figure 7 Cross-sectional view of HH in the middle. Figure 10 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of link 123. Figure 11 The diagram shows the connection structure between the connecting rod 123 and the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122.

[0058] Since the outer cover plate 121 wobbles relative to the inner cover plate 122 in the vertical plane during the sliding process, in order to accommodate the wobbling of the outer cover plate 121, in this embodiment, one end of the connecting rod 123 is hinged to the outer cover plate 121 and the other end is hinged to the inner cover plate 122. The connecting rod 123 is used to rotate in the vertical plane under force.

[0059] Specifically, the front end of the connecting rod 123 is provided with a front hook 1232, and the front end of the inner cover plate 122 is provided with a first holding part 1223, and the front hook 1232 is rotatably held on the first holding part 1223; the rear end of the connecting rod 123 is provided with a rear hook 1231, and the front end of the outer cover plate 121 is provided with a second holding part 1213, and the rear hook 1231 is rotatably held on the second holding part 1213.

[0060] During the movement of the cover assembly 120 between the closed and open states, when the outer cover plate 121 sways in the vertical plane, it drives the connecting rod 123 to sway in the vertical plane, ensuring that the outer cover plate 121 can rotate smoothly to different angles relative to the inner cover plate 122 and avoid jamming.

[0061] In fact, in this embodiment, the process of the cover assembly 120 moving from the closed state to the open state is manually completed by the user. Specifically, as shown below... Figure 5 As shown, a pusher 1214 is provided on the rear end surface of the outer cover plate 121. When the outer cover plate 121 is closed at the top opening 111, the pusher 1214 protrudes from the top opening 111 and is used for the user to apply a forward pushing force, thereby driving the outer cover plate 121 and the inner cover plate 122 to slide in the accommodating cavity until the cover assembly 120 completes the switch to the open state.

[0062] The storage box 100 provided in this embodiment also includes a locking mechanism (not shown in the figure) disposed between the housing assembly 110 and the cover assembly 120. The locking mechanism is used to lock the cover assembly 120 when the cover assembly 120 moves to the open state.

[0063] Understandably, when the user pushes the cover assembly 120 from the closed state to the open state, the locking mechanism locks the cover assembly 120 so that the outer cover 121 and the inner cover 122 are stably held in the storage section 113 of the accommodating cavity, so that the storage box 100 can maintain the open state without external force and prevent the storage box 100 from being accidentally closed during driving.

[0064] Furthermore, the storage box 100 provided in this embodiment also includes an unlocking mechanism (not shown in the figure) that cooperates with the locking mechanism. When the locking mechanism locks the cover assembly 120, the unlocking mechanism can unlock the locking mechanism, so that the locking mechanism releases the cover assembly 120. After the cover assembly 120 is released by the locking mechanism, it can switch from the open state to the locked state.

[0065] The specific structure of the locking mechanism and the unlocking mechanism can be set according to the actual application conditions. In some embodiments, the locking mechanism can adopt a labyrinth lock structure. When the locking mechanism locks the outer cover plate 121, the user can unlock the locking mechanism by further pushing the outer cover plate 121.

[0066] The storage box 100 provided in this embodiment also includes an elastic reset member 130 disposed between the housing assembly 110 and the cover assembly 120. Under the elastic action of the elastic reset member 130, the cover assembly 120 tends to move from the open state to the closed state.

[0067] As the user pushes the outer cover plate 121 to move the cover assembly 120 from the closed state to the open state, the elastic reset member 130 deforms more deeply and accumulates elastic potential energy. When the cover assembly 120 reaches the open state and is locked by the locking mechanism, the elastic potential energy of the elastic reset member 130 reaches its maximum.

[0068] In this case, when the unlocking mechanism unlocks the locking mechanism, the elastic reset member 130 releases elastic potential energy, driving the cover assembly 120 to move from the open state to the closed state, so that the outer cover 121 re-closes the top opening 111 and the inner cover 122 re-closes the storage compartment 112.

[0069] In order to limit the movement speed of the cover assembly 120 and prevent the cover from moving too fast when switching between closed and open states, which would cause it to collide with the housing assembly 110, in this embodiment, the housing assembly 110 also includes a rack plate 140. The rack plate 140 is provided with a rack and is disposed on the lower housing 118 and located in the receiving section 113 of the accommodating cavity. The inner cover plate 122 is provided with a mounting part 1224 and a damping gear 124 that meshes with the rack is provided on the mounting part 1224.

[0070] It is understandable that the rack extends in a direction parallel to the first slide groove 115. When the cover assembly 120 switches between the closed and open states, the damping gear 124 on the inner cover plate 122 rolls along the rack on the rack plate 140 at a constant speed, so that the inner cover plate 122 slides along the first slide groove 115 at an ideal constant speed, thereby ensuring that the cover assembly 120 can smoothly complete the state switching.

[0071] In fact, the elastic reset member 130 in this embodiment is also provided on the rack plate 140. Preferably, the elastic reset member 130 is a coil spring, one end of which is fixed and wound around the rack plate 140, and the other end is connected to the connecting part 1225 provided at the front end of the inner cover plate 122.

[0072] It should be noted that, in another embodiment, the driving method of the cover assembly 120 can be adjusted according to the actual application conditions. For example, a driving component such as a motor can be used to replace the elastic reset component 130 and the damping gear 124 to achieve constant speed driving of the cover assembly 120 during its movement.

[0073] In this embodiment, the inner cover plate 122 is a plate-shaped integral structure. In other embodiments, the structure of the inner cover plate 122 can be adjusted according to actual application conditions to adapt to different application requirements.

[0074] For example, please see Figure 12 , Figure 12 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the inner cover plate 122 in another embodiment.

[0075] exist Figure 12In the illustrated embodiment, the inner cover 122 is a roller shutter structure, which can adjust its curvature according to application conditions to adapt to different sliding path requirements. In this embodiment, the opening of the storage compartment 112 is no longer limited to a planar structure, and the first sliding groove 115 can also be curved or extend at an angle. During the movement of the cover assembly 120 between the closed and open states, the inner cover 122 of the roller shutter structure can be adaptively bent under the guidance of the first sliding groove 115 to smoothly close the storage compartment 112.

[0076] Please see Figure 13 , Figure 13 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the inner cover plate 122 in another embodiment.

[0077] exist Figure 13 In the embodiment shown, the inner cover plate 122 is a split structure, which includes a plate body 1226, a connecting plate 1227 and a trolley 1228. The plate body 1226 serves as a structure for closing or releasing the storage compartment 112, and is connected to the trolley 1228 through the connecting plate 1227. The connecting plate 1227 is hinged to the plate body 1226 and the trolley 1228 respectively.

[0078] In practical applications, the plate 1226 and the trolley 1228 can slide and engage with the first slide groove 115 respectively. Similarly, in this embodiment, the first slide groove 115 can also be curved or extend at an angle. During the sliding process of the plate 1226 and the trolley 1228 along the first slide groove 115, the connecting plate 1227 can be rotated to adapt to the change in the extension direction of the first slide groove 115 and smoothly close the storage compartment 112.

[0079] In summary, in the case of the storage box 100 provided in this embodiment, if too many items are stored in the storage compartment 112 during the movement of the cover assembly 120 from the open state to the closed state, the inner cover 122 will be blocked by the items and will not be able to close completely, which will also prevent the outer cover 121 from closing smoothly. This prompts the user to clean the items in the storage compartment 112 and then close the housing assembly again to avoid the situation where the outer cover 121 cannot be opened after it has been closed smoothly due to the obstruction of items.

[0080] Therefore, the storage box 100 provided by this utility model can prevent the lid assembly 120 from closing when too many items are stored in the storage compartment 112, so as to ensure that the lid assembly 120 can be opened smoothly when closed.

[0081] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
