Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a sub-instrument frame, sub-instrument panel mechanism and vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] As cars become increasingly intelligent, most vehicles have numerous controllers located below the center console, such as ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System), airbag controllers, positioning boxes, and ECUs (electronic control units). To facilitate drinking water for passengers, the center console typically includes two to four cup holders.

[0003] In related technologies, cup holders typically employ a fully sealed structure. This type of cup holder prevents liquid from spilling onto the dashboard when the cup is poured, thus avoiding wetting the controller. However, this type of sealed cup holder is not only aesthetically unappealing but also cannot stably hold cups of different outer diameters, making it difficult to meet user needs.

[0004] To address these issues, some vehicle models employ movable claw-type cup holders. These cup holders have claws that can extend and retract relative to the main body, allowing them to hold cups of varying diameters, such as tea cups and water cups, reducing the risk of spills during driving. However, when a large amount of liquid is poured into the movable claw-type cup holder, it can easily leak through the gap between the claws and the main body into the sealed space between the cup holder and the dashboard. This leads to difficult-to-clean liquid accumulation, and the flow of liquid within this sealed space can produce unusual noises. Furthermore, the liquid can leak further below the dashboard, potentially damaging the control system or even creating a fire hazard, affecting the safety of occupants and the vehicle.

[0040] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.

[0041] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0042] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0043] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0044] For ease of description and understanding, in the embodiments of this utility model, along the length direction of the vehicle, the direction from the front to the rear of the vehicle is the front-to-back direction; along the width direction of the vehicle, the direction from the driver's seat to the passenger seat is the left-to-right direction; and the height direction of the vehicle is the vertical direction.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a secondary instrument panel frame, a secondary instrument panel mechanism, and a vehicle, the vehicle including a secondary instrument panel mechanism disposed in the vehicle cabin.

[0046] The secondary instrument panel mechanism includes a secondary instrument panel body 1, a cup holder assembly 2, and a secondary instrument frame. The secondary instrument frame includes a secondary instrument panel 3, and the secondary instrument panel body 1 includes a storage compartment 11. The secondary instrument panel 3 is fixed above the storage compartment 11, and the cup holder assembly 2 is fixed above the secondary instrument panel 3. The secondary instrument panel 3 is used to receive liquid leaked from the cup holder assembly 2. In other words, liquid leaked from the cup holder assembly 2 can fall onto the secondary instrument panel 3. The secondary instrument panel 3 includes a drainage structure 31 and at least one water-blocking structure. The drainage structure 31 can drain liquid on the secondary instrument panel 3 into the storage compartment 11, and at least one water-blocking structure is provided on one side of the secondary instrument panel 3.

[0047] Specifically, the area below the main body 1 of the secondary instrument panel is used to house electrical components such as ADAS, airbag controller, positioning box, and ECU.

[0048] In this embodiment, liquid leaking from the cup holder assembly 2 can fall onto the sub-instrument panel 3 and then be discharged into the storage compartment 11 by the drainage structure 31. This improves the drainage performance of the sub-instrument panel and makes it easier for users to clean the liquid in the storage compartment 11 in a timely manner. At the same time, the water-blocking structure on the sub-instrument panel 3 can prevent liquid from flowing out from one side edge of the sub-instrument panel 3 into the sub-instrument panel body 1, thereby preventing further leakage of liquid to the lower part of the sub-instrument panel body 1. This protects the electrical components located under the sub-instrument panel body 1 and helps to improve the safety and reliability of these electrical components, thereby achieving the goal of improving driving safety and user experience.

[0049] It should be noted that, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the storage compartment 11 provides space for users to store items. Users can easily retrieve and put items into the storage compartment 11, and similarly, users can easily clean up any liquids that flow into the storage compartment 11. No electrical components are installed inside the storage compartment 11, so liquids flowing into the storage compartment 11 will not cause any safety issues.

[0050] In some embodiments, the storage compartment 11 includes a retrieval opening, which can be set as an open opening, that is, the retrieval opening is not equipped with a compartment cover. Of course, the retrieval opening can also be equipped with a compartment cover that can be opened and closed to improve the aesthetics and the sealing performance of the storage compartment 11. The compartment cover plays a role in preventing dust and other functions for the items placed in the storage compartment 11.

[0051] In some embodiments, the bottom of the storage compartment 11 is provided with a waterproof structure. This waterproof structure can prevent liquid falling into the storage compartment 11 from leaking or seeping below the sub-instrument panel body 1, thereby protecting the electrical components located below the sub-instrument panel body 1 and improving the safety and reliability of these components. For example, the bottom of the storage compartment 11 is provided with a waterproof material or a waterproof coating. Of course, the solid structure forming the storage compartment 11 can also be integrally molded using processes such as injection molding, which can also prevent liquid falling into the storage compartment 11 from leaking or seeping below the sub-instrument panel body 1.

[0052] In some embodiments, at least one water-blocking structure includes a first water-blocking structure 32, and the sub-instrument panel 3 is provided on at least one side along the length of the vehicle. Specifically, the sub-instrument panel 3 is provided on both sides along the length of the vehicle, thereby preventing liquid from flowing out from both sides of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle into the sub-instrument panel body 1. This is especially effective when the vehicle is traveling on a level road and accelerating or decelerating, or when the vehicle is going uphill or downhill, thus preventing further leakage of liquid to the underside of the sub-instrument panel body 1 and improving the protection of electrical components located under the sub-instrument panel body 1. Of course, the first water-blocking structure 32 can also be provided only on one side of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle, and the other side of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle can be flush with or extend to the outer side of the outer surface of the sub-instrument panel body 1, so that liquid flowing out from the other side of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle can flow directly to the outer surface of the sub-instrument panel body 1 or the floor of the vehicle compartment, which also protects the electrical components located under the sub-instrument panel body 1.

[0053] In some embodiments, the first water-blocking structure 32 includes a first protrusion disposed on the surface of the sub-instrument panel 3 facing the cup holder assembly 2; along the vehicle width direction, the two ends of the first protrusion are respectively flush with the two ends of the sub-instrument panel 3, thereby improving the water-blocking effect. Compared with adding a baffle or other structure to the sub-instrument panel 3 as the first water-blocking structure 32, the provision of the first protrusion simplifies the structure of the sub-instrument panel 3, which not only facilitates assembly but also helps to reduce costs.

[0054] In some embodiments, at least one water-retaining structure includes a second water-retaining structure 33, and the second water-retaining structure 33 is provided on at least one side of the sub-dashboard 3 along the vehicle width direction. Specifically, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the secondary instrument panel 3 is provided with second water-blocking structures 33 on both sides along the vehicle width direction. These structures prevent liquid from flowing out from both sides of the secondary instrument panel 3 along the vehicle width direction to the outside of the secondary instrument panel body 1, thus avoiding water droplets and watermarks on both sides of the secondary instrument panel body 1 along the vehicle width direction and improving the aesthetics of the secondary instrument panel structure. Alternatively, the second water-blocking structure 33 can also be provided on one side of the secondary instrument panel 3 along the vehicle width direction.

[0055] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the second water-blocking structure 33 can be provided only on one side of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the vehicle width direction, or the second water-blocking structure 33 can be not provided on either side of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the vehicle width direction. Liquid leaking from the cup holder assembly 2 onto the sub-instrument panel 3 can flow out from one side of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the vehicle width direction to the outer surface of the sub-instrument panel body 1. The user can then wipe the sides of the sub-instrument panel body 1 along the vehicle width direction to remove water droplets, watermarks, etc. It should be further noted that the sides of the sub-instrument panel body 1 along the vehicle width direction correspond to the floor of the vehicle cabin. When a large amount of liquid flows out from the sides of the sub-instrument panel body 1 along the vehicle width direction, the liquid will flow along the surface of the sub-instrument panel body 1 along the vehicle width direction to the floor of the vehicle cabin. The floor usually does not have electrical components and is waterproof, so it will not interfere with driving safety and also makes it easy for the user to clean up the liquid on the floor in a timely manner.

[0056] Of course, in other embodiments, the liquid on the sub-dashboard 3 can also be drained to the floor of the vehicle compartment or other water accumulation components (such as a separately installed water collection tank) through the drainage structure 31.

[0057] In some embodiments, the second water-blocking structure 33 includes a second protrusion, which is disposed on the surface of the sub-instrument panel 3 facing the cup holder assembly 2. Along the length of the vehicle, one end of the second protrusion is connected to the first water-blocking structure 32, thereby improving the water-blocking effect. At the same time, compared with adding a baffle or other structure to the sub-instrument panel 3 as the second water-blocking structure 33, the setting of the second protrusion simplifies the sub-instrument panel mechanism, which not only facilitates assembly but also helps to reduce costs.

[0058] Specifically, there are two of each of the first and second protrusions. The two first protrusions are located on both sides of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle, and the two second protrusions are located on both sides of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the width of the vehicle. Along the length of the vehicle, the two ends of the second protrusions are connected to the two first protrusions. In other words, the two first protrusions and the two second protrusions are connected to form a ring structure, which has a better water-blocking effect.

[0059] Specifically, the sub-instrument panel mechanism also includes an upper cover 4, which is fixed above the sub-instrument panel 3. The sub-instrument panel 3 has connecting flanges on both sides along the vehicle width direction. These connecting flanges connect to the upper cover 4, creating a closed space between the upper cover 4 and the sub-instrument panel 3. This not only improves aesthetics but also provides dust protection, safeguarding the structure located between the upper cover 4 and the sub-instrument panel 3. Furthermore, these connecting flanges serve as a second water-blocking structure 33. In other words, by achieving sealing and water blocking through the connecting flanges, the structure of the sub-instrument panel 3 can be further simplified, assembly convenience improved, and costs reduced.

[0060] In some embodiments, the sub-instrument panel 3 is provided with a groove 34, and a drainage structure 31 is provided in the groove 34, which facilitates the flow of liquid falling on the sub-instrument panel 3 into the groove 34. This not only improves the efficiency of liquid discharge from the drainage structure 31, but also reduces the risk of liquid leakage from the edge of the sub-instrument panel 3.

[0061] In some embodiments, the surface of the sub-instrument panel 3 facing the cup holder assembly 2 is provided with reinforcing protrusions 35, which can improve the structural strength of the sub-instrument panel 3, and improve the reliability and service life of the sub-instrument panel 3.

[0062] Furthermore, the reinforced protrusion 35 includes a protrusion support 351 extending along the width direction of the vehicle. The protrusion support 351 is provided with a through hole 3511 extending along the length direction of the vehicle, which facilitates the flow of liquid to the drainage structure 31 when the vehicle accelerates, decelerates, goes uphill or downhill, and helps to drain the liquid on the sub-instrument panel 3 as quickly as possible.

[0063] In some embodiments, the sub-instrument panel 3 is provided with drainage structures 31 at both ends along the length of the vehicle. When the vehicle accelerates, decelerates, goes uphill, or goes downhill, the liquid on the sub-instrument panel 3 flows along the length of the vehicle. By providing drainage structures 31 at both ends of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle, the liquid flowing to both ends of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length of the vehicle can be discharged through the drainage structures 31, which not only improves drainage efficiency but also reduces the risk of liquid leakage from the edges of the sub-instrument panel 3.

[0064] In some embodiments, the drainage structure 31 includes at least one drain hole 311. Draining liquid from the sub-instrument panel 3 through the drain hole 311 simplifies the structure of the sub-instrument panel 3, making it easier to process and assemble, and thus reducing costs, while ensuring that liquid drainage efficiency meets requirements.

[0065] In some embodiments, the sub-dashboard mechanism also includes electrical components such as charging components located above the sub-dashboard 3, thereby facilitating users to charge devices such as mobile phones and tablets using the charging components, improving the convenience and comfort of users when traveling.

[0066] For ease of description, electrical components located above the sub-instrument panel 3, such as charging components, will be referred to as the first electrical component.

[0067] In some embodiments, the drainage structure 31 includes a plurality of drainage holes 311. The arrangement density of the drainage holes 311 near the first electrical component is greater than that of the drainage holes 311 far from the first electrical component. This allows the drainage holes 311 near the first electrical component to meet drainage requirements and also to dissipate heat from the charging components, thereby simplifying the structure of the sub-instrument panel 3.

[0068] In some embodiments, when the drainage structure 31 includes a plurality of drainage holes 311, the plurality of drainage holes 311 are divided into at least three rows. The at least three rows of drainage holes 311 include a middle drainage hole group and end drainage hole groups located on both sides of the middle drainage hole group along the length direction of the vehicle. The arrangement density of the drainage holes 311 in the end drainage hole groups is greater than that in the middle drainage hole group. It should be noted that when liquid is spilled into the cup holder assembly 2, and the vehicle accelerates, decelerates, goes uphill, or goes downhill, the liquid falling onto the sub-instrument panel 3 will flow towards the front or rear end of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length direction of the vehicle under the action of inertia or gravity. By making the arrangement density of the drainage holes 311 in the end drainage hole group greater than that in the middle drainage hole group, the liquid can be quickly discharged from the sub-instrument panel 3, thereby reducing the risk of liquid on the sub-instrument panel 3 leaking from both ends of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the length direction of the vehicle under the action of inertia, so as to improve the safety of the electrical components located below the sub-instrument panel body 1.

[0069] Specifically, for ease of description, the drainage structure 31 located at the rear end of the sub-instrument panel 3 along the vehicle length direction is referred to as the rear drainage structure 31a, and the drainage structure 31 located at the front end of the sub-instrument panel 3 is referred to as the front drainage structure 31b. Further, the rear drainage structure 31a is located directly below the cup holder assembly 2. Further, the multiple drainage holes 311 of the rear drainage structure 31a are divided into a middle drainage hole group and end drainage hole groups located on both sides of the middle drainage hole group along the vehicle length direction. This allows liquid leaking from the cup holder assembly 2 onto the sub-instrument panel 3 to be discharged more quickly through the rear drainage structure 31a, improving drainage efficiency and reducing the risk of water accumulation. Further, the multiple drainage holes 311 of the front drainage structure 31b are divided into two end drainage hole groups, which are spaced apart along the vehicle length direction. Of course, the multiple drainage holes 311 of the front drainage structure 31b can also be divided into a middle drainage hole group and end drainage hole groups located on both sides of the middle drainage hole group along the vehicle length direction.

[0070] Furthermore, the rear drainage structure 31a is located in the groove 34, which can collect the liquid leaked from the cup holder assembly 2 onto the sub-dashboard 3. This not only further improves the efficiency of liquid discharge from the rear drainage structure 31a, but also reduces the risk of water accumulation.

[0071] In some embodiments, the surface of the sub-instrument panel 3 facing the cup holder assembly 2 is provided with a boss 36 for mounting electrical components. When it is necessary to install electrical components on the sub-instrument panel 3, the electrical components can be mounted on the boss 36, thereby avoiding contact between the electrical components and liquids on the surface of the sub-instrument panel 3, and improving the reliability and safety of the electrical components mounted on the sub-instrument panel 3. It should be noted that first electrical components such as charging components can be mounted on the boss 36, and other electrical components can also be mounted on the boss 36.

[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the cup holder assembly 2 includes a cup holder body 21, a claw 22, and an elastic element (not shown in the figure). Specifically, the cup holder body 21 is embedded in the upper cover 4. The cup holder body 21 includes a receiving cavity 211 for placing a cup, and the side wall of the receiving cavity 211 is provided with a mounting through hole. The claw 22 is movably disposed at the mounting through hole. The elastic element is configured to ensure that the claw 22 always has a tendency to press against the cup. Specifically, the elastic element is installed in the cup holder body 21, and one end of the elastic element is connected to the claw 22. When a cup is placed in the receiving cavity 211 of the cup holder body 21, the cup squeezes the claw 22, thereby causing the elastic element to undergo elastic deformation under the action of the squeezing force. For example, the elastic element is compressed, and the claw 22 presses against the cup under the elastic force of the elastic element, thereby clamping the cup and improving the stability of the cup placement. When the cup is removed, the elastic element returns to its freely extended state and drives the claw 22 to reset.

[0073] Specifically, two cup holder components 2 are provided, and the two cup holder components 2 are spaced apart along the width direction of the vehicle. Of course, in other embodiments, one, three, four, or even more cup holder components 2 may be provided, and this is not limited here.

[0074] In some embodiments, the claw 22 and the elastic element form a claw unit, and the cup holder assembly 2 includes at least two claw units, thereby improving the uniformity of force distribution on the cup and enhancing the convenience of taking and placing the cup. Exemplarily, the cup holder assembly 2 includes four claw units, which are equally spaced along the circumference of the cup, further improving the uniformity of force distribution and making it more convenient to take and place the cup. Of course, the cup holder assembly 2 may also include two, three, five, or even more claw units, and this is not limited thereto.

[0075] In some embodiments, the flow area of ​​the drainage structure 31 is a; the flow area of ​​the gap between the claw 22 and the inner wall of the mounting through hole is b; a ≥ 75% b, thereby enabling the liquid falling on the sub-instrument panel 3 to be quickly discharged from the sub-instrument panel 3 through the drainage structure 31, so as to avoid the liquid staying on the sub-instrument panel 3 for too long, thereby reducing the risk of liquid leakage from the edge of the sub-instrument panel 3, and thus improving the safety of the electrical components located below the sub-instrument panel body 1.

[0076] It should be noted that in this embodiment, b is the flow area of ​​the gap between the claw 22 and the inner wall of the mounting through hole when the elastic member is in a freely extended state. Of course, in other embodiments, b can also be the flow area of ​​the gap between the claw 22 and the inner wall of the mounting through hole when the elastic member undergoes elastic deformation.

[0077] Furthermore, when multiple drainage structures 31 are provided, and each drainage structure 31 includes multiple drainage holes 311, 'a' is the sum of the flow areas of all drainage holes 311. When multiple cup holder assemblies 2 are provided, and each cup holder assemblies 2 includes multiple claws 22, 'b' is the sum of the flow areas of the gaps between all the claws 22 of all cup holder assemblies 2 and the inner walls of their corresponding mounting through holes.

[0078] For example, a can be 75%b, 80%b, 85%b, 90%b, 95%b, or 100%b, etc.

[0079] It should be noted that when a large amount of liquid is spilled into the cup holder assembly 2, the vehicle will brake immediately. Depending on the vehicle's braking performance, it usually takes 3 seconds for the vehicle to stop. During this process, by ensuring that a ≥ 75% b, it can be guaranteed that the liquid falling onto the sub-dashboard 3 can be quickly discharged into the storage compartment 11 through the drainage structure 31, thereby preventing the liquid from leaking from the edge of the sub-dashboard 3 to the electrical components below the sub-dashboard body 1.

[0080] Furthermore, the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Many other equivalent embodiments may be included without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
