Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive cup holder technology, specifically an adjustable cup holder for automobiles. Background Technology

[0002] As a crucial functional component within a vehicle, car cup holders primarily provide drivers and passengers with a convenient and safe solution for storing beverage containers. During vehicle movement, beverage containers are prone to spillage due to bumps or turns. Traditional fixed cup holders cannot accommodate cups or bottles of varying sizes and heights, leading to container movement and even tipping over. This not only contaminates the vehicle's interior but also distracts the driver, creating safety hazards. Furthermore, with the diversification of beverage container types in vehicles (such as insulated cups, narrow-necked beverage bottles, and large-capacity sports water bottles), users demand greater versatility and space utilization from cup holders. The market urgently needs a basic structure that can accommodate multiple container sizes and provide stable support while driving to meet users' fundamental needs for driving comfort and practicality.

[0003] However, existing car cup holders generally adopt a single height design, which cannot dynamically adjust the accommodating space according to different cup heights, resulting in poor adaptability and easy waste of space; in addition, existing cup holders mostly rely on a fixed integrated connection structure, lacking a modular installation design that uses vertical support plates in conjunction with diagonal support plates and positioning pins, making it difficult to install on non-standard vehicle support devices. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable cup holder for automobiles to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: An adjustable cup holder for automobiles has threaded grooves symmetrically formed on its radially outer side. Threaded rods are threadedly installed in each of the threaded grooves, and limiting rods are fixedly installed at their outward ends. The limiting rods are slidably installed in the limiting grooves. The limiting grooves are symmetrically formed on the radially outer side of the cup holder. Two slots communicating with the limiting grooves are spaced apart on the radially outer side of the cup holder adjacent to the limiting grooves, and the openings of the slots are inclined downwards.

[0006] Preferably, four adjustment strips are embedded in the top of the adjustment bracket, the adjustment strips are arranged around the center point of the top of the adjustment bracket, and the adjustment strips protrude slightly from the top of the adjustment bracket.

[0007] Preferably, a support plate is mounted on the bottom end of the adjusting bracket via a pin, and a spring is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the support plate. The bottom end of the spring is fixedly mounted on the inner bottom surface of the bracket.

[0008] Preferably, three positioning pins are installed at intervals at the center of the bottom end of the support tube, and the positioning pins are respectively inserted into the positioning grooves, which are opened at the top of the fixed long plate.

[0009] Preferably, after the positioning pin is inserted into the positioning groove, the fixed long plate and the support are fixed by bolts, and connecting blocks are fixedly installed at both ends of the fixed long plate.

[0010] Preferably, vertical support plates are bolted to the outer side of the connecting block, and horizontal diagonal support plates are fixedly installed at the top of the vertical support plates. Two fixing holes are opened on each of the diagonal support plates.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This adjustable cup holder for automobiles works by pressing down on the adjustment bracket, which causes a limiting rod to move down along the limiting groove and compress the spring to expand the capacity; turning the adjustment bracket causes the limiting rod to slide into the inclined slot to lock the height; when pressed down again, the limiting rod slides back along the inclined slot and is pushed up by the spring to reset, thus achieving cup height adjustment, anti-shaking support, and automatic space closure for aesthetic purposes.

[0012] This adjustable cup holder for automobiles uses a positioning pin at the bottom of the cup holder to fix the positioning groove of the long plate, and bolts to fasten the cup holder to the long plate. Then, a vertical support plate is installed through connecting block bolts, and external devices are connected by a horizontal diagonal support plate at the top of the vertical support plate and its fixing hole. This allows for modular and rapid installation on a non-integrated vehicle support structure. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: An adjustable cup holder for automobiles has threaded grooves 102 symmetrically formed on the radially outer side of the adjustable cup holder 101. Threaded rods 103 are threadedly installed in the threaded grooves 102. Limiting rods 104 are fixedly installed at the outward ends of the threaded rods 103. The limiting rods 104 are slidably installed in limiting grooves 105. The limiting grooves 105 are symmetrically formed on the radially outer side of the cup holder 106. Two slots 107 communicating with the limiting grooves 105 are formed at intervals on the radially outer side of the cup holder 106 adjacent to the limiting grooves 105. The openings of the slots 107 are inclined downwards.

[0017] The above scheme allows for the installation and fixing of the threaded rod by symmetrically opening threaded grooves on the radially outer side of the adjusting bracket; the sliding connection of the adjusting bracket is achieved by the threaded rod installed by threads within the threaded grooves; the sliding restriction is achieved by a limiting rod fixedly installed at the outward end of the threaded rod; the guiding lifting is achieved by the limiting rods slidingly installed in the limiting grooves; the limiting grooves symmetrically opened on the radially outer side of the bracket constrain the sliding path; the position locking is achieved by the slots spaced apart on the radially outer side of the bracket adjacent to the limiting grooves; and the smooth sliding and locking of the limiting rods is achieved by the connection between the slots and the limiting grooves and the downward tilting design of the slot openings.

[0018] In this embodiment, preferably, four adjusting strips 108 are embedded and installed at the top of the adjusting support 101. The adjusting strips 108 are arranged around the center point of the top of the adjusting support 101, and the adjusting strips 108 protrude slightly from the top of the adjusting support 101.

[0019] The above scheme allows for auxiliary rotation by embedding four adjusting strips at the top of the adjusting bracket; the adjusting strips are evenly distributed by circling the center point of the top of the adjusting bracket; and the slightly protruding adjusting strips at the top of the adjusting bracket enhance friction.

[0020] In this embodiment, preferably, the bottom end of the adjusting support 101 is mounted with a support plate 109 via a pin, and the bottom end of the support plate 109 is fixedly mounted with a spring 110, the bottom end of the spring 110 being fixedly mounted on the inner bottom surface of the support cylinder 106.

[0021] The above scheme allows for movable support by adjusting the support plate mounted on the bottom of the support via a pin; elastic reset is achieved by a spring fixedly mounted on the bottom of the support plate; and compression buffering is achieved by fixing the bottom of the spring to the inner bottom surface of the support cylinder.

[0022] In this embodiment, preferably, three positioning pins 111 are installed at intervals at the center of the bottom end of the support cylinder 106. The positioning pins 111 are respectively inserted into the positioning grooves 112, which are located at the top of the fixed long plate 113.

[0023] The above scheme achieves initial positioning by using three locating pins spaced apart at the center of the bottom of the support tube; position alignment is achieved by inserting the locating pins into the locating slots; foundation fixing is achieved by opening the locating slots at the top of the fixed long plate; and overall load-bearing is achieved by setting up the fixed long plate.

[0024] In this embodiment, preferably, after the positioning pin 111 is inserted into the positioning groove 112, the fixing plate 113 and the support cylinder 106 are fixed by bolts, and the two ends of the fixing plate 113 are respectively extended and fixedly installed with connecting blocks 114.

[0025] The above solutions enable rigid connection between the long plate and the support cylinder by bolting after the positioning pins and positioning slots are inserted and installed; extended installation is achieved by fixing the connecting blocks that extend and are fixed at both ends of the long plate; and rapid assembly is achieved by bolting the connecting blocks to the outside.

[0026] In this embodiment, preferably, vertical support plates 115 are bolted to the outer side of the connecting block 114, and horizontal diagonal support plates 116 are fixedly installed at the top of the vertical support plates 115. Two fixing holes 117 are respectively opened on the diagonal support plates 116.

[0027] The above scheme achieves vertical support by bolting the vertical support plate on the outside of the connecting block; horizontal extension is achieved by fixing the horizontal diagonal support plates at the top of the vertical support plates; and the external device can be fixedly connected by the two fixing holes opened on the diagonal support plates.

[0028] In this embodiment, when a user places a cup into the adjustable cup holder for automobiles, the operation begins with pressing down on the adjusting cup holder 101. At this time, the adjusting cup holder 101 descends under gravity or manual force, causing the threaded rod 103 installed in the radially outer threaded groove 102 to move downwards. The limiting rod 104 at one end of the threaded rod 103 slides in the limiting groove 105 of the cup holder 106. This limiting sliding ensures that the adjusting cup holder 101 is stably guided during descent and will not deviate. At the same time, the support plate 109 connected to the bottom of the adjusting cup holder 101 by a pin moves downwards, compressing the spring 110 installed between the bottom of the support plate 109 and the inner bottom surface of the cup holder 106. This reduces the height of the adjusting cup holder 101, expands the internal space of the cup holder 106, and makes room for cups of different heights, solving the space adaptation problem caused by different cup sizes. To address height differences in the cups, users can rotate the adjusting tray 101 by turning it. The slightly protruding adjusting strip 108 at the top of the tray 101 facilitates operation. As the tray is turned, the threaded rod 103 aligns with the slot 107 on the radially outer side of the tray 106. The downward-sloping opening of the slot 107 allows the limiting rod 104 to slide smoothly into the slot 107 and be securely locked in place by the spring 110's return force, thus locking the height of the adjusting tray 101. Simultaneously, the spring 110's return force provides continuous upward support. Adjusting tray 101 ensures that the cup is placed stably and does not wobble. When the cup is removed, the user presses down on adjusting tray 101 again. The downward-sloping design of the slot 107 makes it easy for the limiting rod 104 to slide away from the slot 107 and return to the limiting groove 105 after force is applied. Under the elastic force of spring 110, the limiting rod 104 slides up along the limiting groove 105 and pushes adjusting tray 101 back to its original position. The support plate 109 moves up accordingly, and adjusting tray 101 rises completely and closes the internal space of tray 106, keeping the cup holder clean and beautiful. In the overall structure, the bottom end of the cup holder 106 is inserted into the positioning groove 112 of the fixed long plate 113 through the positioning pin 111, and then the cup holder 106 and the fixed long plate 113 are fixed with bolts. The connecting block 114 of the fixed long plate 113 extends and is connected to the vertical support plate 115 by bolts. The horizontal diagonal support plate 116 at the top of the vertical support plate 115 is provided with a fixing hole 117 for fixing to the external support device of the car, so as to realize the flexible installation of the cup holder on the non-integrated structure and improve the applicability and modification convenience of the cup holder.
