Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to an easy-to-install automotive dashboard. Background Technology

[0002] The car dashboard, as one of the core components of a vehicle, not only displays important information about the vehicle's operating status, such as speed, RPM, fuel level, and coolant temperature, but also integrates various control buttons and indicator lights, serving as the primary interface for driver interaction. With the rapid development of the automotive industry and consumers' ever-increasing demands for driving experience, the design of car dashboards is increasingly trending towards intelligence, integration, and user-friendliness. Modern car dashboards not only require accurate and clear display of vehicle information but also need excellent human-machine interaction performance to enhance driving safety and comfort.

[0003] However, a long-standing problem in the design and manufacturing of automotive dashboards is the inconvenience of disassembly and assembly. Traditional automotive dashboards often have complex structures with various connection methods between components, including bolt fastening, snap-fit ​​connections, and adhesive bonding. This results in a significant amount of time and effort being required for disassembly and assembly when repairing, replacing, or upgrading the dashboard. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an easy-to-install car dashboard, which improves the convenience of disassembly and assembly.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An easy-to-install automotive dashboard includes a matching mounting plate and a dashboard body. The dashboard body has at least two disassembly cavities, each including a conical movable cavity and a cylindrical threaded cavity. A threaded rod is threaded into the threaded cavity, and one end of the threaded rod is fixedly connected to a pressing block adapted to the movable cavity. The mounting plate has a snap-fit ​​groove corresponding to the disassembly cavity. The movable cavity has a through snap-fit ​​hole on the side facing the snap-fit ​​groove, and a snap-fit ​​rod is connected to the snap-fit ​​hole through a return spring.

[0007] Preferably, a disassembly knob is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod away from the extrusion block.

[0008] Preferably, the snap-fit ​​through hole includes a fitting through hole and a spring through hole, the reset spring is located inside the spring through hole, and the inner wall of the fitting through hole is slidably fitted to the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​rod.

[0009] Preferably, the disassembly cavity further includes an annular receiving cavity located at its opening, the inner wall of the receiving cavity being provided with a permanent magnet ring, the permanent magnet ring being magnetically connected to a magnetic metal plate for closing the disassembly cavity.

[0010] Preferably, the number of disassembly cavities is four, and they are located in the four directions of the dashboard body: top, bottom, left, and right.

[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] Simplified assembly and disassembly procedures enhance ease of use: This automotive dashboard features a unique structural design that simplifies the assembly and disassembly process. During installation, simply align the disassembly / removal cavity on the dashboard body with the snap-fit ​​slot on the mounting plate. Rotating the threaded rod causes the pressing block to push the snap-fit ​​rod against the return spring force into the snap-fit ​​slot, completing the installation. For disassembly, reverse the rotation of the threaded rod; the pressing block no longer presses against the snap-fit ​​rod, and the snap-fit ​​rod returns to its original position under the action of the return spring, thus releasing the connection between the dashboard body and the mounting plate. This method of assembly and disassembly via rotating the threaded rod eliminates the traditionally complex and cumbersome steps, allowing operators to quickly and easily complete the assembly and disassembly of the dashboard, significantly improving efficiency.

[0013] Equipped with a disassembly / removal knob, the ease of disassembly and assembly is further enhanced: a disassembly / removal knob is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod away from the extrusion block. This design provides operators with a more convenient operating method. During disassembly and assembly, operators do not need to directly rotate the threaded rod by hand; instead, they can rotate the threaded rod by turning the disassembly / removal knob. The disassembly / removal knob increases the point of force during operation, allowing operators to control the rotation of the threaded rod more easily and effortlessly, further simplifying the disassembly and assembly operation and improving its convenience.

[0014] The optimized snap-fit ​​hole structure ensures smooth assembly and disassembly: The snap-fit ​​hole includes a fitting through-hole and a spring through-hole, with the return spring located within the spring through-hole. The inner wall of the fitting through-hole slides against the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​rod. This structural optimization allows for smoother movement of the snap-fit ​​rod within the snap-fit ​​hole. During assembly and disassembly, the snap-fit ​​rod can slide stably within the fitting through-hole under the action of the return spring, avoiding difficulties caused by obstructed movement of the snap-fit ​​rod. The fitting through-hole's restriction on the sliding contact of the snap-fit ​​rod also ensures directional stability during movement, guaranteeing accurate entry and exit from the snap-fit ​​slot, thus ensuring smooth assembly and disassembly operations and improving convenience.

[0015] A magnetic metal plate is used to enclose the disassembly / reassembly cavity, facilitating disassembly and protecting the internal structure. The cavity includes an annular receiving chamber at its opening, with a permanent magnet ring on its inner wall. This ring is magnetically connected to the magnetic metal plate used to seal the cavity. During daily use, the magnetic metal plate effectively seals the cavity, preventing dust and debris from entering and protecting components such as threaded rods and extrusion blocks. When disassembly / reassembly is required, the operator can easily remove the magnetic metal plate from the receiving chamber, exposing the cavity for operation. This design ensures the cleanliness and safety of the internal structure without creating additional obstacles to the disassembly / reassembly process, improving convenience while protecting the internal structure.

[0016] The number and location of the disassembly / reassembly chambers are rationally designed to ensure balanced stress distribution and ease of operation: Four disassembly / reassembly chambers are located at the top, bottom, left, and right of the instrument panel body. This layout allows for even stress distribution during installation, ensuring stability. Simultaneously, the four-directional placement of the chambers provides operators with multiple operating points, making disassembly and reassembly convenient from any direction. Operators can choose the appropriate operating position based on the actual situation, avoiding difficulties caused by limited operating space and further improving the ease of disassembly and reassembly.

[0022] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] First embodiment

[0024] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, an easy-to-install automotive dashboard includes a matching mounting plate 1 and a dashboard body 2. The dashboard body 2 has at least two disassembly cavities, each including a conical movable cavity 301 and a cylindrical threaded cavity 302. A threaded rod 401 is threadedly connected to the threaded cavity 302. One end of the threaded rod 401 is fixedly connected to a pressing block 402 that is compatible with the movable cavity 301. The mounting plate 1 has a snap-fit ​​groove 101 corresponding to the disassembly cavity. The movable cavity 301 has a through snap-fit ​​hole on the side facing the snap-fit ​​groove 101. A snap-fit ​​rod 502 is connected to the snap-fit ​​hole through a return spring 501.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, during instrument panel installation, the disassembly / removal cavities on the instrument panel body 2 are first aligned with the snap-fit ​​slots 101 on the mounting plate 1. Then, the operator rotates the threaded rod 401 (threaded to the threaded cavity 302), causing the threaded rod 401 to gradually move towards the snap-fit ​​slots 101 within the threaded cavity 302. Since one end of the threaded rod 401 is fixedly connected to a pressing block 402 that matches the movable cavity 301, the pressing block 402 moves along with the threaded rod 401 and gradually enters the movable cavity 301. When the pressing block 402 reaches the position where it contacts the snap-fit ​​rod 502, continuing to rotate the threaded rod 401 applies a pressing force to the snap-fit ​​rod 502 towards the snap-fit ​​slots 101. When the locking rod 502 is compressed, it overcomes the elastic force of the return spring 501 and slides towards the locking groove 101 within the locking through hole until it enters the locking groove 101 on the mounting plate 1. At this time, the locking rod 502 acts as a limit within the locking groove 101, fixing the instrument panel body 2 to the mounting plate 1, thus completing the installation of the instrument panel. When it is necessary to disassemble the instrument panel, the operator rotates the threaded rod 401 in the opposite direction. The threaded rod 401 moves away from the locking groove 101 within the threaded cavity 302, causing the pressing block 402 to move along with it. As the pressing block 402 moves away, its pressing force on the locking rod 502 gradually decreases until it disappears. At this time, under the elastic force of the return spring 501, the locking rod 502 slides back along the locking through hole towards the locking groove 101. Once the latching rod 502 has fully disengaged from the latching slot 101, the limiting effect between the instrument panel body 2 and the mounting plate 1 is released, allowing the operator to easily remove the instrument panel body 2 from the mounting plate 1 and complete the disassembly of the instrument panel. Through the above-described installation and disassembly process, this automotive instrument panel achieves convenient installation and disassembly without the need for complex tools and procedures, thus improving the efficiency of installation and disassembly.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, a disassembly / removal knob 403 is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod 401 away from the pressing block 402. Its working principle is to optimize the operating experience and improve the convenience of disassembly / removal. When disassembling or assembling the dashboard, the operator needs to rotate the threaded rod 401 to connect or separate the dashboard body 2 from the mounting plate 1. Since the threaded rod 401 is usually small in diameter, directly rotating it by hand may result in insufficient force and inconvenience. The disassembly / removal knob 403 increases the contact area and force point during operation. The operator only needs to hold the disassembly / removal knob 403 and apply rotational force to easily rotate the threaded rod 401 within the threaded cavity 302, thereby moving the pressing block 402 to achieve the insertion and exit of the locking rod 502 into and out of the locking groove 101, greatly simplifying the operation difficulty during disassembly / removal and improving efficiency.

[0027] like Figure 1As shown, the snap-fit ​​through-hole includes a fitting through-hole and a spring through-hole. The return spring 501 is located inside the spring through-hole, and the inner wall of the fitting through-hole slides against the outer wall of the snap-fit ​​rod 502. This sliding contact provides precise guidance for the movement of the snap-fit ​​rod 502. When the pressing block 402 applies pressure to the snap-fit ​​rod 502 or the return spring 501 applies elastic force to the snap-fit ​​rod 502, the snap-fit ​​rod 502 can only slide linearly along the axial direction of the fitting through-hole. This prevents the snap-fit ​​rod 502 from shifting or wobbling during movement, ensuring that the snap-fit ​​rod 502 can accurately enter or exit the snap-fit ​​groove 101, thereby guaranteeing the reliability of the instrument panel installation and removal. Placing the return spring 501 inside the spring through-hole also serves to house and protect it. The spring through hole provides a relatively independent space for the return spring 501, preventing the return spring 501 from being interfered with by external factors during the movement of the locking rod 502, such as dust, debris, etc., which could cause the spring to jam or be damaged. This ensures that the return spring 501 can extend and retract normally, providing stable elastic force to the locking rod 502 and ensuring that the locking rod 502 can be smoothly reset during disassembly and assembly.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, there are four disassembly cavities, located at the top, bottom, left, and right of the instrument panel body 2. These four cavities are evenly distributed across the four directions of the instrument panel body 2. During installation, when the locking rod 502 enters the locking groove 101, the fixing force on the instrument panel body 2 is evenly distributed in four directions, avoiding problems such as installation instability or deformation of the instrument panel body 2 caused by uneven force, thus improving the firmness and stability of the instrument panel installation. The four cavities provide operators with multiple operating points, making disassembly and assembly convenient from any direction. Operators can choose a suitable operating position according to the actual situation, without needing a specific angle or direction, improving the flexibility and convenience of disassembly and assembly. Simultaneously, during disassembly, the four cavities can be operated simultaneously or sequentially to quickly complete the disassembly of the instrument panel.

[0029] Second embodiment

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, the disassembly / assembly cavity also includes an annular receiving cavity 303 located at its opening. A permanent magnet ring 601 is provided on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 303, and the permanent magnet ring 601 is magnetically connected to a magnetic metal plate 602 for sealing the disassembly / assembly cavity. During daily use of the automotive dashboard, when the disassembly / assembly cavity is open, external dust, debris, and moisture can easily enter the cavity. These foreign objects may adhere to components such as the threaded rod 401, the compression block 402, and the snap-fit ​​rod 502, affecting the normal movement and function of the components, and even causing problems such as rusting and jamming, thus affecting the ease of disassembly / assembly and the service life of the dashboard. The permanent magnet ring 601 on the inner wall of the receiving cavity 303 is magnetically connected to the magnetic metal plate 602. The magnetic attraction force holds the magnetic metal plate 602 at the opening of the disassembly / assembly cavity, forming a closed structure that effectively prevents external dust, debris, and moisture from entering the cavity, protecting the components inside and ensuring they are in a clean, dry environment, maintaining good working condition. When the dashboard needs to be disassembled or assembled, the magnetic metal plate 602 and the permanent magnet ring 601 are connected magnetically. This connection is not rigid; the operator only needs to apply appropriate external force to overcome the magnetic attraction to easily remove the magnetic metal plate 602 from the receiving cavity 303, exposing the disassembly / assembly cavity for subsequent operations. After the disassembly / assembly is completed, the magnetic metal plate 602 is placed back into the receiving cavity 303. The magnetic metal plate 602 will automatically adhere and fix itself under the magnetic force of the permanent magnet ring 601, resealing the disassembly / assembly cavity. This design ensures the sealing of the disassembly / assembly cavity in the non-disassembly / assembly state without creating additional obstacles to the disassembly / assembly operation, protecting the internal structure while improving the convenience of disassembly / assembly.

[0031] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the technical features of this utility model are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent substitutions, or modifications made based on this utility model to solve essentially the same technical problems and achieve essentially the same technical effects are all covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
