Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive cup holder technology, specifically relating to a novel cleanable automotive cup holder. Background Technology

[0002] In daily car use, car cup holders are frequently used to hold water cups, beverage bottles, and perfumes. Due to frequent contact with these substances, they are prone to accumulating stains and harboring bacteria. Because of their small size and often complex grooved structure, traditional manual cleaning methods, such as using cloths, often fail to reach these confined spaces and intricate structures, resulting in incomplete cleaning. Furthermore, over time, the bottom crossbeam of the cup holder's clamping mechanism may come into contact with corrosive substances like perfumes. If the crossbeam is insufficiently strong or thick, it is easily corroded and damaged, potentially even melting, affecting the proper functioning of the clamping mechanism and the overall stability of the cup holder.

[0003] In existing technologies, car cup holders are significantly lacking in terms of cleaning convenience and structural durability, making it difficult to meet users' needs for thorough cleaning and long-term stable use. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a car cup holder that can achieve automatic cleaning and has a more durable structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a novel cleanable car cup holder. By incorporating cleaning components, it solves the problem that existing car cup holders are prone to bacterial and smudge growth due to frequent contact with beverages, water stains, perfumes, etc., and that manual cleaning with tools such as cloths is difficult due to the limited space and complex groove structure, resulting in incomplete cleaning.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a novel cleanable car cup holder, comprising a main body assembly, a cup holder base fixed below the main body assembly, a clamping assembly provided on the outer wall of the main body assembly, and a cleaning assembly connected below the cup holder base. The cleaning assembly includes a cleaning component, which is located inside the main body assembly and has one end inserted into the cup holder base.

[0006] Furthermore, the cleaning assembly also includes a timing pulley, a timing belt, a drive pulley, a drive motor, and a rotating shaft. One end of the rotating shaft is movably inserted into the middle of the cup base, and the other end of the rotating shaft is located below the cup base and fixedly inserted into the timing pulley. The drive pulley is connected to the output end of the drive motor. The outer sides of the drive pulley and the timing pulley are connected by the timing belt, and their outer surfaces are engaged with the timing belt.

[0007] Furthermore, the cup base, synchronizing wheel, cleaning component, and rotating shaft are all configured in pairs.

[0008] Furthermore, the main body component includes cup holder A, cup holder B, bolts and connecting brackets. Cup holder A and cup holder B are respectively located on the bottom of the two cup holders and are connected by several bolts at the overlapping middle of the outer sides of cup holder A and cup holder B. Several connecting brackets are provided on the outer side walls of cup holder A and cup holder B and have the same number of clamping holes as the connecting brackets. The clamping holes are located in the middle of the connecting brackets.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a clamping frame, a shaft, a clamping member, and a torsion spring. The number of clamping assemblies is the same as the number of connecting frames. The clamping frame has an opening in the middle. The shaft moves through the bottom of the clamping frame. The torsion spring is sleeved on the shaft. The bottom of the connecting frame has a notch that matches both ends of the shaft. The clamping frame is fixed to the connecting frame by the shaft and is located outside the clamping opening. The clamping member is fixed to one end of the torsion spring and passes through the opening and the clamping opening. The other end of the torsion spring is connected to the bottom of the connecting frame.

[0010] Furthermore, a thickened crossbeam is provided at the bottom of the clamping frame.

[0011] Furthermore, a cleaning component is connected to one end of the rotating shaft, or a sealing cap is connected to one end of the rotating shaft, with the upper surface of the sealing cap flush with the upper surface of the cup holder base.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This utility model realizes the automatic cleaning function of car cup holders. Through the cooperation of the drive motor, drive wheel, synchronous wheel, synchronous belt, rotating shaft and cleaning components in the cleaning component, it can reach into the narrow space and complex groove structure of the cup holder, solving the problem of incomplete cleaning caused by the limitation of tools in traditional manual cleaning, reducing bacterial growth and helping to maintain the hygiene of the car interior.

[0014] 2.

[0021] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides the following technical solution: A novel cleanable car cup holder, including a main body component 1, in which water cups, beverages, perfumes and other items can be placed. A cup holder base 3 is fixed below the main body component 1, and two cup holder bases 3 are provided. A clamping component 4 is provided on the outer wall of the main body component 1. The clamping component 4 is used to clamp the water cup or beverage to prevent the water cup or beverage from tipping over. A cleaning component 2 is connected below the cup holder base 3. The cleaning component 2 includes a cleaning element 25, and two cleaning elements 25 are also provided. The cleaning element 25 is located inside the main body component 1 and one end is inserted into the cup holder base 3. The cleaning element 25 rotates under the drive of the cleaning component 2, which can clean the dirt and bacteria in the narrow space and complex structure inside the main body component 1.

[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the cleaning assembly 2 also includes a synchronous pulley 21, a synchronous belt 22, a drive pulley 23, a drive motor 24, and a rotating shaft 26. Two synchronous pulleys 21 and two rotating shafts 26 are provided. One end of each rotating shaft 26 is movably inserted into the middle of the two cup bases 3, and the other end of each rotating shaft 26 is located below the cup base 3 and is fixedly inserted into the two synchronous pulleys 21. The synchronous pulleys 21 drive the rotating shafts 26 to rotate synchronously. The drive pulley 23 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 24, which drives the drive pulley 23 to rotate. The drive motor 24 is located in the middle of the two cup bases 3. The outer sides of the drive pulley 23 and the two synchronous pulleys 21 are connected by the synchronous belt 22, and the outer surfaces of the drive pulley 23 and the two synchronous pulleys 21 mesh with the synchronous belt 22. The drive pulley 23 drives the two synchronous pulleys 21 to rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt 22.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, the main body component 1 includes a cup holder A11, a cup holder B12, bolts 13, and connecting brackets 14. Cup holders A11 and B12 hold items such as water cups, beverages, and perfumes. Cup holders A11 and B12 are located on the bases 3 of the two cup holders, and are connected by several bolts 13 at the overlapping points on the outer sides of cup holders A11 and B12. In this embodiment, three bolts 13 are used to fix cup holders A11 and B12 together. Several connecting brackets 14 are provided on the outer walls of cup holders A11 and B12, and the same number of clamping openings 15 as the connecting brackets 14 are provided. The connecting brackets 14 are used to fix clamping components 4. The clamping openings 15 are located in the middle of the connecting brackets 14. The clamping openings 15 are provided to allow the clamping components 4 to extend into cup holders A11 and B12 to clamp water cups or beverages. In this embodiment, six connecting brackets 14 are used, with three connecting brackets 14 provided on each of cup holders A11 and B12.

[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the clamping assembly 4 includes a clamping frame 41, a shaft 42, a clamping member 43, and a torsion spring 44. The number of clamping assemblies 4 is the same as the number of connecting frames 14; in this embodiment, six are provided. Three are provided for each of the cup holders A11 and B12. An opening 411 is provided in the middle of the clamping frame 41. The shaft 42 movably passes through the bottom of the clamping frame 41, and is located below the opening 411. The torsion spring 44 is sleeved on the shaft 42 and is located within the opening 411. A notch 141 is provided at the bottom of the connecting frame 14 to fit both ends of the shaft 42. The two ends of 2 are snapped into the notch 141. The clamping frame 41 is fixed to the connecting frame 14 by the shaft 42 and is located outside the clamping port 15. The clamping member 43 is fixed to one end of the torsion spring 44 and passes through the opening 411 and the clamping port 15. The other end of the torsion spring 44 is connected to the bottom of the connecting frame 14. When the cup holder A11 and the cup holder B12 are empty, the clamping member 43 extends into the cup holder A11 and the cup holder B12 under the action of the torsion spring 44. When there is a water cup or beverage in the cup holder A11 and the cup holder B12, the clamping member 43 clamps the water cup or beverage under the action of the torsion spring.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the clamping frame 41 is provided with a thickened crossbeam 412. After the thickening treatment, the structural strength can be enhanced, and it can be prevented from being damaged by long-term contact with perfume and other substances with certain corrosiveness, thus ensuring the stable operation of the clamping assembly 4.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 2-3As described in section 6, one end of the rotating shaft 26 is connected to a cleaning component 25 or the other end of the rotating shaft 26 is connected to a sealing cover 5. When placing items, the end of the rotating shaft 26 that extends into the cup holder base 3 is connected to the sealing cover 5. The upper surface of the sealing cover 5 is flush with the upper surface of the cup holder base 3, so it will not affect the placement of items. When cleaning is required, the sealing cover 5 is removed and the cleaning component 25 is connected, so the inside of the cup holder A11 and the cup holder B12 can be automatically cleaned.

[0028] Specifically, the outer surfaces of cup holder A11, cup holder B12 and cup holder base 3 are provided with several mounting brackets for fixing to the car, thus stably fixing cup holder A11, cup holder B12 and cup holder base 3 to the car.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In the non-cleaning state, the sealing cover 5 covers the upper end of the rotating shaft 6, which can keep the surface of the cup holder bottom 3 flat and not affect the placement of items; when the cup holder needs to be cleaned, first remove the sealing cover 5 covering the upper end of the rotating shaft 6; then fix the cleaning component 25 to the upper end of the rotating shaft 6, and start the drive motor 24 in the cleaning component 2, whose output end drives the drive wheel 23 to rotate. Since the drive wheel 23 and the synchronous wheel 21 are connected by the synchronous belt 22 and both the drive wheel 23 and the synchronous wheel 21 are engaged with the synchronous belt 22, the rotational power of the drive wheel 23 will be transmitted to the two sets of synchronous wheels 21 through the synchronous belt 22, causing the synchronous wheels 21 to rotate accordingly. The synchronous wheels 21 are connected to the rotating shaft 6, and the rotating shaft 6 then rotates together with the synchronous wheels 21, ultimately driving the cleaning component 25 at the upper end of the rotating shaft 6 to rotate. During rotation, the cleaning component 25 can penetrate into the narrow spaces and complex grooves inside the cup holders A11 and B12 to thoroughly clean residual stains and water stains, achieving an automatic cleaning effect. After cleaning, the cleaning component 25 is removed and the sealing cover 5 is installed.

[0030] When an item is placed in the cup holder, it exerts an outward pushing force on the clamping member 43, causing the clamping member 43 to rotate around the axis 42 and deform the torsion spring 44. The torsion spring 44, with its elastic restoring properties, generates a reverse force, which is transmitted to the item through the clamping member 43. This causes the clamping member 43 to pass through the clamping opening 15 and firmly hold the item, thus achieving stable clamping of items of different sizes. Simultaneously, the thickened crossbeam 412 at the bottom of the clamping frame 41 is reinforced to enhance its structural strength and prevent damage from prolonged contact with corrosive substances such as perfume, ensuring the stable operation of the clamping assembly 4.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. 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.
