Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of armrest box manufacturing technology, and in particular to a two-way armrest box cover. Background Technology

[0002] In the automotive interior design field, the development of the armrest reflects the industry's continuous pursuit of a superior driving and riding experience. As people's living standards improve, cars are no longer just a means of transportation, but also a comfortable mobile space. As an important interior component, the armrest greatly enhances the comfort of passengers, while its storage function meets the needs of storing items while driving. A well-designed armrest can enhance the overall aesthetics and practicality of the vehicle's interior, positively impacting its market acceptance.

[0003] In existing car armrest box designs, the armrest box is located between the driver and passenger seats and uses hinges to connect the lid to the box body. The lid is opened and closed by rotating the hinges. This method is simple in structure, easy to manufacture, and low in cost, and is widely used in many car models. Alternatively, a snap-on connection method is used, where the lid is opened and closed by pressing a snap-on mechanism. This method ensures the stability of the lid when closed and prevents it from accidentally opening while the vehicle is in motion.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the armrest box can only be opened in one direction and cannot be opened in both directions from the driver's side and the passenger side. For people sitting in different positions in the driver's and passenger's seats, they must turn or twist their bodies to adapt to the single opening direction, which is inconvenient to use and cannot flexibly choose the opening direction according to their own position, thus reducing the convenience of use. Utility Model Content

[0005] To improve the ease of use of the armrest box, this application provides a two-way armrest box cover.

[0006] This application provides a two-way armrest box cover, which adopts the following technical solution: A two-way armrest box cover includes a box body and an end cover. The box body is hollow, and the end cover is provided at the upper end of the box body. A connecting frame is provided at the upper end of the box body. The driver's side of the connecting frame is rotatably connected to the box body. The end cover is located at the upper end of the connecting frame, and the passenger's side of the end cover is rotatably connected to the connecting frame. Connectors are provided on both sides of the end cover. The connectors are used to connect the end cover to the box body. Buttons are provided on both sides of the end cover. The buttons are slidably connected to the end cover along the width direction of the end cover. When the button is pressed, the connector on the same side as the button is separated from the box body.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the hollow design of the two-way armrest cover allows for the storage of items. A connecting frame enables a rotatable connection between the driver's side and the cover, and between the passenger side and the end cover. Connectors on both sides of the end cover securely connect the end cover to the cover, ensuring its stable placement on top. Buttons are located on both sides of the end cover and can slide along its width. Pressing a button detaches the connecting piece on the same side as the button from the cover, giving the armrest cover a two-way opening function. Both the driver and passenger can easily open the corresponding end cover to access items inside, improving usability.

[0008] Optionally, a torsion spring is fixed between the two ends of the main frame side of the connecting frame and the housing, and a torsion spring is fixed between the two ends of the passenger side side of the connecting frame and the end cover.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the armrest box cover is opened, torsion spring one can provide elastic assistance for the rotation of the connecting frame relative to the box body, ensuring that the connecting frame rotates smoothly and easily, reducing the occurrence of jamming or stiffness during operation; torsion spring two can provide elastic support for the rotation of the end cover relative to the connecting frame, making the rotation of the end cover more stable and flexible, and can automatically maintain the corresponding state when opened or closed to a certain position with the help of the elastic action of the torsion spring, improving the convenience and reliability of the two-way armrest box cover during use.

[0010] Optionally, an elastic element is fixed between the button and the end cap, which is used to drive the button to move in the horizontal direction.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic element can automatically reset and move horizontally after the button is pressed, which is convenient for the user's next operation, reduces the impact of the button being in an abnormal position on the normal opening and closing of the two-way armrest box cover, and improves the stability of the two-way armrest box cover.

[0012] Optionally, several silicone pads are fixed to the upper part of the box, and the silicone pads are evenly distributed along the four edges of the box. The silicone pads are made of elastic material.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the silicone pad can play a buffering role when the end cover and the box are closed, reducing the collision and friction between the two, reducing noise generation, and extending the service life of the two-way armrest box cover.

[0014] Optionally, a waterproof layer is provided on the upper surface of the end cap to reduce the inflow of moisture into the end cap.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, a waterproof layer is set on the upper surface of the end cover, which can effectively block external moisture, such as rainwater and splashed liquids, greatly reducing the possibility of water flowing into the end cover. This can prevent the internal components of the end cover from being damaged or rusted due to contact with moisture, and extend the service life of the two-way armrest box cover.

[0016] Optionally, the connector includes a latch and two connecting rods. The latch is located inside the end cover. A push rod is fixed on the side of the button near the latch. When the end cover is connected to the housing, the push rod fits against the latch. The connecting rods are inserted into the latch. The two connecting rods are located at both ends of the latch. The driver's side of the connecting frame and the passenger's side of the housing are provided with through holes corresponding to the connecting rods. The end of the connecting rod away from the latch is inserted into the through hole and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the through hole.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the connecting rod is located inside the through hole, the end cover is closed. The push rod on the side of the button near the latch is in contact with the latch when the end cover is connected to the housing. When it is necessary to open the end cover, pressing the button will push the push rod to move the latch. The two connecting rods are respectively inserted at both ends of the latch. The movement of the latch causes the two connecting rods to move closer to each other, separating the connecting rods from the inner wall of the through hole, thereby opening the end cover.

[0018] Optionally, two protective plates are fixed inside the end cap, each corresponding to a lock tongue, and the protective plates are located at the upper end of the lock tongue.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective plate can protect the lock tongue, reduce damage to the lock tongue from collisions and squeezing by objects above, ensure the structural integrity and stability of the lock tongue, thereby ensuring the normal use of the connector and maintaining the reliability of the connection between the end cover and the housing.

[0020] Optionally, a connecting block is fixed at the lower end of the latch, a locking block is fixed on the side of the latch near the button, a limiting block is fixed inside the end cover, the limiting block abuts against the locking block, and several guide blocks corresponding to the connecting block are fixed on the side of the housing, the guide blocks being used to push the connecting block to move.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting block inside the end cover abuts against the locking block, which can effectively limit the position of the locking tongue and ensure the stability of the locking tongue in the normal state. When it is necessary to close the end cover, the end cover is pressed down, and the guide block plays a guiding role, guiding the connecting block to move. The movement of the connecting block drives the locking block to move, so that the limiting block and the locking block are separated. At the same time, the movement of the locking tongue drives the connecting rod to move away from each other, so that the connecting rod is inserted into the through hole, thereby realizing the closing of the end cover and improving the convenience of using the device.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. When the button is pressed, the connecting piece on the same side as the button can be separated from the box body, which makes the armrest box cover have a two-way opening function. Both the driver and the passenger can easily open the end cover on the corresponding side to access the items inside the box, thus improving the convenience of use. 2. The silicone pad can act as a buffer when the end cover and the box body are closed, reducing the collision and friction between the two, reducing noise generation, and extending the service life of the two-way armrest box cover; 3. The protective plate can protect the lock tongue, reduce damage to the lock tongue from collisions and squeezing by objects above, ensure the structural integrity and stability of the lock tongue, thereby ensuring the normal use of the connector and maintaining the reliability of the connection between the end cover and the housing.

[0031] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to all the accompanying drawings.

[0032] This application discloses a two-way armrest box cover. Example

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A two-way armrest box cover includes a box body 1 and an end cover 2. The box body 1 is hollow and can be used to store items. A connecting frame 12 is provided at the upper end of the box body 1. The driver's side of the connecting frame 12 is rotatably connected to the box body 1. An end cover 2 is provided at the upper end of the connecting frame 12. The passenger's side of the end cover 2 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 12. Buttons 4 are provided on both sides of the end cover 2. Buttons 4 are slidably connected to the end cover 2 along the width direction of the end cover 2. A connector corresponding to the button 4 is provided inside the end cover 2.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connector includes a latch 3 and two connecting rods 31. The latch 3 is located inside the end cover 2, and the connecting rods 31 are inserted into the latch 3, with the two connecting rods 31 located at opposite ends of the latch 3. Both the driver's side of the connecting frame 12 and the passenger side of the housing 1 have through holes 38 corresponding to the connecting rods 31. When the end cover 2 is connected to the housing 1, the end of the connecting rod 31 furthest from the latch 3 is inserted into the through hole 38 and rotatably connected to the inner wall of the through hole 38. A push rod 42 is fixed to the side of the button 4 near the latch 3, and the push rod 42 is in contact with the latch 3.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the button 4 on the driver's side is pressed, the push rod 42 pushes the corresponding locking tongue 3 to move. The movement of the locking tongue 3 causes the two connected connecting rods 31 to move in a direction closer to each other, so that the connecting rods 31 separate from the connecting frame 12, and the end cover 2 on the driver's side separates from the connecting frame 12, thus opening the end cover 2 on the driver's side. When the button 4 on the passenger's side is pressed, the push rod 42 pushes the locking tongue 3 on the passenger's side to move. The movement of the locking tongue 3 causes the two connected connecting rods 31 to move in a direction closer to each other, so that the connecting frame 12 on the passenger's side separates from the box 1, thus opening the end cover 2 on the passenger's side. This gives the armrest box cover a two-way opening function, so that both the driver and the passenger can easily open the end cover 2 on the corresponding side and then take out the items in the box 1, improving the convenience of use.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 Torsion spring 13 is fixed between the two ends of the main frame side of the connecting frame 12 and the housing 1. When the button 4 on the passenger side is pressed, the torsion spring 13 provides elastic assistance for the rotation of the connecting frame 12 relative to the housing 1, so that the end cover 2 opens under the action of the torsion spring. Torsion spring 21 is fixed between the two ends of the passenger side of the connecting frame 12 and the end cover 2. When the button 4 on the driver side is pressed, the torsion spring 21 provides elastic support for the rotation of the end cover 2 relative to the connecting frame 12, so that the end cover 2 automatically maintains the corresponding state with the help of the elastic action of the torsion spring, which improves the convenience and reliability of the device during use.

[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4A connecting block 35 is fixedly provided at the lower end of the latch 3. A locking block 32 is fixedly provided on the side of the latch 3 near the button 4. When the button 4 is pressed and the latch 3 moves, the locking block 32 moves. An elastic element 36 is fixedly provided between the two latches 3. The elastic element 36 can be a spring. At this time, the elastic element 36 is compressed. A limiting block 34 is fixedly provided inside the end cover 2. The limiting block 34 abuts against the locking block 32, thereby limiting the latch 3 and reducing the probability of the latch 3 moving accidentally. Several guide blocks 33 are fixedly provided on the side of the housing 1. The guide blocks 33 correspond one-to-one with the connecting blocks 35. When needed... When the end cover 2 is closed, the end cover 2 is pressed down, and the connecting block 35 contacts the guide block 33. The guide block 33 has a guide surface, which causes the connecting block 35 to move under the action of the guide surface. The displacement of the connecting block 35 causes the locking block 32 to move, so that the limiting block 34 is separated from the locking block 32, and the locking tongue 3 is no longer limited. The locking tongue 3 moves and resets under the action of the elastic element 36. The movement of the locking tongue 3 causes the two connecting rods 31 to move in a direction away from each other, so that the connecting rods 31 are inserted into the corresponding through holes 38, thereby closing the end cover 2 and improving the convenience of using the device.

[0038] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 An elastic element 41 is fixed between button 4 and end cover 2. The elastic element 41 can be a spring. After button 4 is pressed, it automatically resets and moves horizontally with the help of the elastic force of the elastic element 41, which facilitates the user's next operation, reduces the impact of button 4 being in an abnormal position on the normal opening and closing of the two-way armrest box cover, and improves the stability of the two-way armrest box cover.

[0039] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 Several silicone pads 11 are fixed at the upper end of the housing 1. The silicone pads 11 are evenly distributed along the four edges of the housing 1. The silicone pads 11 are made of elastic material. The silicone pads 11 can play a buffering role when the end cover 2 and the housing 1 are closed, reducing the collision and friction between the two, reducing noise generation, and extending the service life of the device.

[0040] Reference Figure 7 Two protective plates 37 are fixed inside the end cap 2. The protective plates 37 correspond one-to-one with the locking tongue 3. The protective plates 37 are located at the upper end of the locking tongue 3 and can protect the locking tongue 3, reduce the damage to the locking tongue 3 caused by collisions or squeezing of objects above, ensure the structural integrity and stability of the locking tongue 3, thereby ensuring the normal use of the connector and maintaining the reliability of the connection between the end cap 2 and the housing 1.

[0041] Reference Figure 1The upper surface of the end cover 2 is provided with a waterproof layer, which can effectively reduce the direct penetration of external moisture into the interior of the end cover 2, reduce the occurrence of moisture damage to the internal components of the end cover 2 due to moisture inflow, thereby extending the service life of the internal components of the end cover 2 and ensuring the normal use and stable performance of the entire two-way armrest box cover.

[0042] The implementation principle of a two-way armrest box cover in this application embodiment is as follows: When the button 4 on the driver's side is pressed, the push rod 42 pushes the corresponding locking tongue 3 to move. The movement of the locking tongue 3 causes the two connected connecting rods 31 to move in a direction that approaches each other, so that the connecting rods 31 are separated from the connecting frame 12, and the end cover 2 on the driver's side is separated from the connecting frame 12, thereby realizing the opening of the end cover 2 on the driver's side. When the button 4 on the passenger's side is pressed, the push rod 42 pushes the locking tongue 3 on the passenger's side to move. The movement of the locking tongue 3 causes the two connected connecting rods 31 to move in a direction that approaches each other, so that the connecting frame 12 on the passenger's side is separated from the box 1, thereby realizing the opening of the end cover 2 on the passenger's side. This makes the armrest box cover have a two-way opening function, so that both the driver and the passenger can easily open the end cover 2 on the corresponding side and then take out the items in the box 1, thus improving the convenience of use.

[0043] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
