Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bicycle interior parts technology, and in particular to a glove box opening structure for automobiles. Background Technology

[0002] The car glove box is located on the passenger side and is used to store small items. On some models, the cabin air filter is installed within a pre-drilled hole in the glove box. Once the glove box is installed, it covers the cabin air filter, making it easy to replace during future maintenance. The existing car glove box opening mechanism includes components for normal opening and closing, as well as components for removing the glove box.

[0003] In existing glove box opening mechanisms, the parts for glove box disassembly are generally located on one side of the glove box, inside the center console, away from the outside of the center console. In order to avoid accidental activation of the disassembly point and to prevent the disassembly point from obstructing the access of items, the disassembly point is usually set in a relatively concealed manner. At the same time, the internal space of the glove box is relatively small, which increases the difficulty of disassembling the glove box and has a significant impact on the efficiency of replacing the air conditioning filter. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose an opening structure for a vehicle glove box to solve the problem of the relatively high difficulty in disassembling the glove box.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a glove box opening structure for automobiles, including a first opening part disposed inside the glove box on the side near the outside of the car's center console, which is used to control the opening or closing of the glove box.

[0006] Two second openings are located opposite each other on the outside of the glove box on the side away from the outside of the car's center console, and are used to restrict the glove box to the center console;

[0007] The connector is located between the two second opening parts and passes directly below the first opening part. When the glove box is disassembled or installed, it is temporarily connected to the first opening part through the connector. The opening action of the first opening part is used to link the two second opening parts to operate synchronously and release the limiting effect on the glove box.

[0008] Preferably, the first opening part includes a limiting sleeve fixed inside the glove box on the side near the outside of the car's center console. A guide groove connects the inside of the limiting sleeve and the outside of the glove box. A limiting block is vertically slidably provided inside the limiting sleeve. A guide block is fixedly provided on the limiting block. The guide block is slidably sleeved inside the guide groove. Two insert rods are vertically provided at the bottom of the limiting block. The bottom end of the insert rods is inserted and connected to a through hole provided at the bottom of the limiting sleeve. A compression spring is sleeved on the outside of the insert rods. One end of the compression spring is fixedly provided on the limiting block.

[0009] Preferably, the second opening part includes a limiting cylinder that is laterally fixed to the outside of the glove box on the side away from the first opening part. One end of the limiting cylinder passes through the other end of the limiting cylinder and extends to the outside of the limiting cylinder. A limiting rod is coaxially slidably sleeved inside the limiting cylinder. A limiting block is fixedly sleeved outside the limiting rod. The top of the limiting block is slidably sleeved with a through groove provided on the top of the limiting cylinder. A return spring is provided inside the limiting cylinder near the end of the limiting block. The two ends of the return spring abut against the opposite end faces of the limiting rod and the limiting cylinder, respectively.

[0010] Preferably, the ends of the two limiting rods that protrude from the inside of the limiting cylinder face opposite directions, and the length of the limiting rods extending from the inside of the limiting cylinder is less than that of the return spring.

[0011] Preferably, the connector includes two limiting rings fixedly positioned inside the glove box on the side closest to the outside of the car's center console. A pull rope is connected in series between the inside of the two limiting rings. The two ends of the pull rope are horizontally inserted and connected to two through holes connecting the inside and outside of the glove box, respectively. A fixed pulley is rotatably provided at the end of the through groove away from the limiting rod. One end of the pull rope passes horizontally to the top of the fixed pulley and exits horizontally from the bottom of the fixed pulley. One end of the pull rope is fixedly mounted on a limiting block. An abutment block is fixedly connected to the outside of the pull rope, and the abutment block corresponds to the bottom of the insertion rod.

[0012] Preferably, the pull cord is horizontally arranged in a U-shape inside the glove box, and the outside of the pull cord is close to the inner wall and the outside of the glove box.

[0013] Preferably, the two fixed pulleys and the two return springs are located between the opposite ends of the two limiting rods, and the two fixed pulleys are located between the opposite ends of the two return springs.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This invention removes the glove box by flipping the bottom of the abutment block in the second opening part to face the bottom of the insertion rod in the first opening part, then pushing down the guide block and moving the abutment block synchronously with the synchronously moving insertion rod, and pulling the two second opening parts synchronously with the pull rope. This removes the restriction of the second opening parts on the glove box, thus reducing the difficulty of glove box disassembly and assembly. The abutment block is hidden below the limiting sleeve. At the same time, the pull rope is close to the vertical inner wall of the glove box, improving the concealment of both. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a glove box opening structure for a vehicle includes a first opening part 1 located inside the glove box on one side near the outside of the vehicle's center console, which is used to control the opening or closing of the glove box.

[0024] Two second opening sections 2 are located opposite each other on the outside of the glove box, away from the outside of the car's center console, and are used to restrict the glove box to the center console.

[0025] The connector 3 is located between the two second opening parts 2 and passes directly below the first opening part 1. When the glove box is disassembled or installed, it is temporarily connected to the first opening part 1 through the connector 3. The opening action of the first opening part 1 is used to drive the two second opening parts 2 to operate synchronously and release the limiting effect on the glove box. In this way, the glove box can be disassembled and installed, simplifying the disassembly and installation steps, reducing the difficulty of disassembly and installation, improving its disassembly and installation efficiency, and improving the replacement efficiency of the air conditioning filter hidden behind it (only for the case where the air conditioning filter is designed inside the car's center console).

[0026] The shaft connector 4 is located at the bottom of the glove box. It includes a connecting rib 41 fixedly located at the bottom of the glove box and a retaining sleeve 42 fixedly located at the bottom of the connecting rib 41. The radial cross-sectional shape of the retaining sleeve 42 is a three-quarter circular ring. The retaining sleeve 42 is rotatably engaged with the outside of the horizontal shaft inside the car's center console, so as to open and close the glove box by deflection, thereby improving space utilization. The shaft connector 4 is one of the common types of connectors on the glove box.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first opening part 1 includes a limiting sleeve 11 fixed inside the glove box on the side near the outside of the car's center console. A guide groove 12 connects the inside of the limiting sleeve 11 and the outside of the glove box. A limiting block 13 is vertically slidably provided inside the limiting sleeve 11. A guide block 14 is fixedly provided on the limiting block 13. A groove is provided on the side of the guide block 14 away from the limiting block 13. The internal space of the groove can accommodate two to three adult fingers, making it convenient to operate and open the glove box. The guide block 14 is slidably sleeved inside the guide groove 12. Two insert rods 15 are vertically provided at the bottom of the limiting block 13. The bottom end of the insert rod 15 is inserted and connected to the through hole 16 provided at the bottom of the limiting sleeve 11. A compression spring 17 is sleeved on the outside of the insert rod 15. One end of the compression spring 17 is fixedly provided on the limiting block 13.

[0028] The specific operation of the first opening part 1 is as follows: The user inserts two fingers into the groove on the guide block 14 and presses them against the bottom of the inner wall of the groove. Then, the fingers exert downward force to push the guide block 14 down, causing the guide block 14 to move the limiting block 13 and the insert rod 15 down synchronously until the top of the limiting block 13 is flush with or slightly lower than the highest boundary of the glove box. During this process, the limiting block 13 compresses the compression spring 17. At the same time, the bottom end of the insert rod 15 passes downward from the inside of the through hole 16. This releases the limitation of the limiting block 13 on the glove box flipping outward from the car's center console, allowing the glove to be opened to retrieve items or to prepare for disassembling the glove box. The operation is simple and quick. Furthermore, the guide block 14 is completely located inside the guide groove 12, maintaining the flatness of the outside of the glove box. This also prevents the passenger in the front seat from accidentally touching the guide block 14 when carrying other items, thus improving the stability of the glove box.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second opening part 2 includes a limiting cylinder 21 that is laterally fixed to the outside of the glove box on the side away from the first opening part 1. One end of the limiting cylinder 21 passes through the other end of the limiting cylinder 21 and extends to the outside of the limiting cylinder 21. A limiting rod 22 is coaxially slidably sleeved inside the limiting cylinder 21. A limiting block 23 is fixedly sleeved outside the limiting rod 22. The top of the limiting block 23 is slidably sleeved with a through groove 24 provided on the top of the limiting cylinder 21. A return spring 25 is provided inside the limiting cylinder 21 near the end of the limiting block 23. The two ends of the return spring 25 abut against the opposite end faces of the limiting rod 22 and the limiting cylinder 21, respectively. The ends of the two limiting rods 22 that protrude from the inside of the limiting cylinder 21 face opposite directions, and the length of the limiting rods 22 extending from the inside of the limiting cylinder 21 is less than that of the return spring 25.

[0030] The connector 3 includes two limiting rings 31 fixedly positioned inside the glove box on the side near the outside of the car's center console. A pull rope 32 is connected in series between the two limiting rings 31. The pull rope 32 is horizontally arranged in a U-shape inside the glove box, and the outside of the pull rope 32 is close to the inner wall and the outside of the glove box. The two ends of the pull rope 32 are horizontally inserted and connected to two through holes 33 that connect the inside and outside of the glove box. A fixed pulley 34 is rotatably provided at the end of the groove 24 away from the limiting rod 22. One end of the pull rope 32 is horizontally inserted to the top of the fixed pulley 34 and horizontally exits from the bottom of the fixed pulley 34. The two fixed pulleys 34 and the two return springs 25 are all located between the opposite ends of the two limiting rods 22, and the two fixed pulleys 34 are located between the opposite ends of the two return springs 25. One end of the pull rope 32 is fixedly mounted on the limiting block 23. An abutment block 35 is fixedly connected to the outside of the pull rope 32, and the abutment block 35 corresponds to the bottom of the insertion rod 15.

[0031] When it is necessary to replace the air conditioning filter located behind the glove box, flip the contact block 35 upwards until the bottom of the contact block 35 is aligned with the bottom end of the insertion rod 15. Then, insert two fingers into the groove on the guide block 14 and apply downward pressure. This will cause the guide block 14 to move the limiting block 13 and the insertion rod 15 downwards simultaneously. After the bottom end of the insertion rod 15 contacts the contact block 35, the insertion rod 15 will simultaneously push the contact block 35 downwards and pull the pull rope 32 downwards. This will cause the two ends of the pull rope 32 to move closer to each other simultaneously, thus simultaneously driving the two limiting rods 22 to move towards each other. Bring the glove box closer, causing the end of the limiting rod 22 located outside the limiting cylinder 21 to retract into the limiting cylinder 21 until the limiting rod 22 is completely retracted into the limiting cylinder 21. This releases the limiting effect of the two limiting rods 22 in the glove box deflection direction. Then, continue to deflect the glove box outward until the limiting rod 22 is located outside the car center console. Next, pull the glove box diagonally upward outside the car center console so that the retaining sleeve 42 at the bottom of the glove box disengages from the outside of the horizontal axis inside the car center console. This allows the glove box to be removed for subsequent air conditioning filter replacement.

[0032] After replacing the air conditioning filter, align the retainer at the bottom of the glove box with the outside of the horizontal shaft and apply pressure radially to the horizontal shaft so that the retainer 42 engages and wraps around the outside of the horizontal shaft. This facilitates the glove box being deflected using the horizontal shaft as the deflection axis. Then, press down on the guide block 14 and repeat the above steps of retracting the limiting rod 22. After the limiting rod 22 is fully retracted into the limiting cylinder 21, deflect the glove box toward the inside of the car's center console until the limiting cylinder 21 is located inside the car's center console. At this point, the glove box is installed in place and can be opened and closed normally. The entire disassembly or installation process of the glove box is simple and efficient. Furthermore, the components in the second opening part 2 will not experience increased wear due to repeated disassembly and installation. The structures of the first opening part 1, the second opening part 2, and the connecting piece 3 are relatively simple, and the probability of component damage is extremely small and negligible. In the event of accidental damage, the difficulty of replacement and repair is low, and the repair and replacement costs are low.

[0033] As is known from common technical knowledge, this utility model can be implemented through other embodiments that do not depart from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the disclosed embodiments described above are merely illustrative in all respects and are not the only ones. All modifications within the scope of this utility model or its equivalents are included in this utility model.
