Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric vehicle front toolbox technology, specifically to a toolbox flip cover handle structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most electric vehicles on the market have a front toolbox on the front shell for storing personal items (such as chargers, mobile phones, water bottles, small tools, etc.). To facilitate users' access to these items, existing front toolboxes generally adopt a direct-access design. Specifically, these toolboxes typically have only one open-type receiving cavity on the front shell of the electric vehicle for placing items.

[0003] This direct access structure has obvious drawbacks in actual use: on the one hand, due to the lack of an effective closing device, when the electric vehicle is driving on bumpy roads, the items in the toolbox are very likely to fall out of the opening due to vibration, resulting in loss or damage; on the other hand, the open structure cannot effectively prevent dust, rainwater and other impurities from entering the toolbox. After long-term use, the items inside the box are easily contaminated, damp and corroded, which will seriously affect electronic products such as mobile phones and chargers.

[0004] Meanwhile, as users' demands for the convenience and safety of electric vehicles continue to increase, the shortcomings of existing direct-access front toolboxes in terms of structural stability, protective performance, and reliability have become increasingly apparent, making it difficult to meet market demands and users' actual usage scenarios. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an electric vehicle front toolbox structure that can solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a toolbox flip-top handle structure to solve the above-mentioned technical problems in the prior art; the preferred technical solution among the many technical solutions provided by this utility model can produce many technical effects, as detailed below.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: This utility model provides a toolbox flip-top handle structure, which is installed on a toolbox on the front shell of an electric vehicle. It includes a flip-top assembly and a handle assembly, wherein: the flip-top assembly is flip-mounted on the front shell of the electric vehicle for opening and closing the toolbox opening; the handle assembly is installed on the flip-top assembly and has a locking member. The front shell of the electric vehicle has a locking part corresponding to the locking member, and the locking member can lock with the locking part to lock the flip-top assembly in the closed state.

[0007] Preferably, the locking member is rotatably disposed on the flip cover assembly, and the locking member is provided with a locking part adapted to the locking part; the handle assembly includes a handle body, the mounting part of the locking member is fixedly connected to the handle body, and the handle body and the locking member rotate synchronously.

[0008] Preferably, the handle assembly includes an elastic element, which is disposed on the flip cover assembly and connected to the locking element; when the handle body drives the locking element to rotate and the locking part is separated from the locking part, the elastic element deforms.

[0009] Preferably, the elastic element is a torsion spring, the flip cover assembly is provided with a mounting shaft, the torsion spring is sleeved on the mounting shaft, and the first abutting part and the second abutting part of the torsion spring abut against the locking element and the flip cover assembly respectively.

[0010] Preferably, the flip-top assembly is provided with limiting ribs on both sides of the torsion spring.

[0011] Preferably, the flip cover assembly includes a flip cover body and a flip cover liner, wherein: the flip cover body and the flip cover liner are connected and form a receiving cavity; the mounting part of the locking member is disposed in the receiving cavity.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom side of the flip cover assembly is provided with a flip rotation shaft, which is rotatably mounted on the front housing of the electric vehicle.

[0013] Preferably, the electric vehicle front housing includes a front housing body for mounting the toolbox, and a rotating shaft limiting cover is provided inside the toolbox at the position of the box opening. The rotating shaft limiting cover is connected to the front housing body and forms a mounting groove for mounting the flipping rotating shaft.

[0014] Preferably, the toolbox flip-top handle structure further includes at least one adsorption component, which is disposed on the front housing of the electric vehicle; when the flip-top component is in the closed state, the flip-top component is adsorbed and connected to the front housing of the electric vehicle through the adsorption component.

[0015] Preferably, the adsorption component is configured as a magnetic adsorption component, which includes a first magnetic adsorption element and a second magnetic adsorption element, wherein: the first magnetic adsorption element is disposed on the front housing of the electric vehicle; the second magnetic adsorption element is disposed on the flip-top component and corresponds to the first magnetic adsorption element; when the flip-top component is in the closed state, the first magnetic adsorption element and the second magnetic adsorption element are adsorbed and connected.

[0016] The toolbox flip-top handle structure provided by this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: I. Enhanced Safety and Stability of Item Storage: Through the cooperation of the flip-top assembly and the handle assembly, the locking element in the handle assembly can reliably lock with the locking part on the front shell of the electric vehicle, stably locking the flip-top assembly in the closed state. Compared with the existing direct access structure, this effectively avoids the problem of items falling out of the box when the electric vehicle is moving, ensuring the safety and stability of items stored in the toolbox and reducing the risk of loss or damage. II. Enhanced Dust and Water Resistance: When closed, the flip-top assembly completely covers the toolbox opening. Combined with the locking mechanism and its sealing effect, this effectively prevents external dust, rain, and other impurities from entering the toolbox. Compared to existing open-top panel structures, this significantly improves the toolbox's dust and water resistance, protecting the contents from contamination and moisture. III. Improved ease of use and structural reliability: The flip-top assembly can be flipped onto the front housing of the electric vehicle. When opening the toolbox, the user only needs to move the handle assembly and flip the cover, making the operation simple and convenient. At the same time, the connection structure between the handle assembly and the flip-top assembly, as well as the locking part and the locking mechanism, is designed to be stable and is not prone to damage or failure during long-term use, ensuring the overall reliability of the toolbox structure and improving the user experience.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0021] Example 1: This utility model provides a toolbox flip-top latch structure, see reference. Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the toolbox flip-top handle structure is installed on the toolbox 41 of the front housing 4 of the electric vehicle, and the top side of the toolbox 41 is open. The toolbox flip-top handle structure includes a flip-top assembly 1 and a handle assembly 2. The flip-top assembly 1 is flip-mounted on the front housing 4 of the electric vehicle and is used to open and close the toolbox 41. The handle assembly 2 is mounted on the flip-top assembly 1 and moves synchronously with the flip-top assembly 1. The handle assembly 2 is provided with a locking member 21. A locking part 421 is provided on the front housing 4 of the electric vehicle at a position corresponding to the locking member 21. The locking member 21 can lock with the locking part 421 to lock the flip-top assembly 1 in the closed state.

[0022] When not in use, the flip cover assembly 1 closes the opening of the toolbox 41, and the locking part 21 of the handle assembly 2 locks into the locking part 421, locking the flip cover assembly 1 into the closed state.

[0023] When placing items, move the handle assembly 2 to disengage the locking part 21 from the locking part 421. At this time, the locking state is released, and the flip cover assembly 1 can be pulled to open the opening of the toolbox 41. After that, items can be placed into the toolbox 41.

[0024] This utility model, by setting a flip-top assembly 1 and a handle assembly 2 at the opening of the toolbox 41, can effectively prevent items inside the box from falling out when the electric vehicle is bumpy, ensuring the safety and stability of the items stored in the toolbox. On the other hand, when the flip-top assembly 1 is closed, it can completely cover the opening of the box, thereby enhancing the dustproof and waterproof performance of the toolbox 41. At the same time, the toolbox 41 can be opened simply by moving the handle assembly 2 and flipping the flip-top assembly 1, making it convenient and quick to use.

[0025] Example 2: Example 2 is based on Example 1: like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the locking member 21 is rotatably mounted on the flip cover assembly 1. The locking member 21 is provided with a locking part 211 that is adapted to the locking part 421. Specifically, the locking part 211 is configured as a buckle, and the locking part 421 is configured as a slot. The buckle and the slot are adapted to each other.

[0026] The handle assembly 2 includes a handle body 22 and a mounting part 212 of the locking member 21 fixedly connected to the handle body 22. Specifically, the mounting part 212 is set as a mounting plate with mounting holes. Threaded fasteners pass through the mounting holes and are connected to the handle body 22. The handle body 22 and the locking member 21 rotate synchronously.

[0027] When the box opening is opened, the user pulls the handle body 22, which moves the locking member 21 and disengages it from the locking part 421. Then, by continuing to pull the handle body 22, the flip cover assembly 1 can be opened.

[0028] The handle body 22 and the locking component 21 are linked, allowing the flip cover assembly 1 to be opened simply by operating the handle body 22, greatly simplifying the opening and closing process of the toolbox 41 and improving ease of operation. Moreover, the connection between the locking component 21 and the handle body 22 is stable, avoiding locking failure caused by relative displacement between the two and ensuring the stability of the locked state.

[0029] As an optional implementation method, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the handle assembly 2 includes an elastic element 23, which is disposed on the flip cover assembly 1 and connected to the locking element 21.

[0030] During the process of opening the toolbox 41, the handle body 22 is driven by external force to rotate the locking part 21, and the locking part 421 separates from the locking part 211. At this time, the elastic part 23 deforms.

[0031] When the external force is removed, the elastic element 23, which is in a deformed state, releases its elastic force, causing the handle body 22 and the locking element 21 to return to their initial positions.

[0032] The elastic element 23 enables the automatic return of the handle body 22 and the locking element 21, further simplifying the operation. On the other hand, the elastic force of the elastic element 23 can always apply a pre-tightening force to the locking element 21. In the locked state, it can ensure that the locking part 211 and the locking part 421 are tightly fitted. Even if the electric vehicle is traveling on a bumpy road, it can effectively prevent the two from separating due to vibration, improve the vibration resistance of the locking structure, and ensure the sealing of the toolbox 41 in dynamic scenarios.

[0033] As an optional implementation, the elastic element 23 is configured as a torsion spring, and the flip cover assembly 1 is provided with a mounting shaft 24. The torsion spring is sleeved on the mounting shaft 24, and the first abutting part and the second abutting part of the torsion spring abut against the locking element 21 and the flip cover assembly 1, respectively.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, the locking member 21 is provided with a strip-shaped groove. The torsion spring includes a straight section located in the middle, a spiral section provided on both sides of the straight section, and a vertical section provided at the end of the spiral section. The straight section is provided in the strip-shaped groove, and the two vertical sections abut against the flip cover assembly 1. The straight section forms the first abutting part, and the vertical section forms the second abutting part.

[0035] This design, while ensuring its effectiveness, makes the structure more compact and makes full use of the limited installation space inside the flip-top assembly 1.

[0036] As an optional implementation method, such as Figure 9 As shown, the flip cover assembly 1 has limiting ribs 121 on the inner side of its flip cover body 11 located on both sides of the torsion spring.

[0037] The two limiting ribs 121 cooperate with each other to effectively limit the lateral displacement of the torsion spring, preventing the spring force direction from changing and the reset failure caused by the torsion spring deflection during use.

[0038] As an optional implementation, the flip cover assembly 1 includes a flip cover body 11 and a flip cover liner 12, the flip cover body 11 and the flip cover liner 12 are connected and form a receiving cavity; the mounting part 212 of the locking member 21 is disposed in the receiving cavity.

[0039] The locking component 21 of the handle assembly 2 adopts a concealed installation structure, which makes the structure look flatter and simpler while ensuring the locking effect.

[0040] As an optional implementation, a flip-top swivel shaft 122 is integrally provided on the bottom side of the flip-top liner 12, and the flip-top swivel shaft 122 is rotatably mounted on the front housing 4 of the electric vehicle.

[0041] During use, the flip cover assembly 1 flips down around the rotating axis 122 located on the bottom side to open. Compared with the side-flip or upward-flip structure, the downward-flipping opening and closing method is more in line with the user's operating habits of taking and putting away items. That is, after opening, the flip cover will not block the space above the opening of the toolbox 41, and the user can directly reach out and put away items from above, avoiding interference of the flip cover with the operation.

[0042] As an optional implementation, the electric vehicle front housing 4 includes a front housing body 42 for mounting a toolbox 41. A rotating shaft limiting cover 43 is provided inside the toolbox 41 at the position of the opening of the toolbox. The rotating shaft limiting cover 43 is connected to the front housing body 42 and forms a mounting groove 431 for mounting the flipping rotating shaft 122.

[0043] Specifically, the front shell body 42 is provided with a first mounting groove, and the rotating shaft limiting cover 43 is provided with a second mounting groove at the position corresponding to the first mounting groove. Both the first mounting groove and the second mounting groove are matched with the dimensions of the flipping rotating shaft 122, and the two together form a mounting groove 431.

[0044] The rotating shaft limiting cover 43 can effectively limit the position of the flipping rotating shaft 122, ensuring that it always rotates along a fixed trajectory, preventing the flipping rotating shaft 122 from shifting or falling off due to vibration, and ensuring the stability of the opening and closing of the flip cover assembly 1. On the other hand, the rotating shaft limiting cover 43 can block the flipping rotating shaft 122, reduce the entry of dust and other foreign objects, and extend the service life of the rotating structure.

[0045] The number of the rotating shaft 122 and the corresponding rotating shaft limiting cover 43 is at least one, preferably two, and they are symmetrically distributed.

[0046] As an optional implementation, the toolbox flip-top handle structure also includes at least one adsorption component 3, which is disposed on the front housing 4 of the electric vehicle.

[0047] When the flip cover assembly 1 is in the closed state, the flip cover assembly 1 is adsorbed and connected to the front shell 4 of the electric vehicle through the adsorption assembly 3.

[0048] The adsorption component 3 and the handle component 2 work together to form a double fixation, further improving the stability of the flip-top component 1 in the closed state.

[0049] As an optional implementation method, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the adsorption component 3 is configured as a magnetic adsorption component, which includes a first magnetic adsorption element 31 and a second magnetic adsorption element 32.

[0050] The front housing 4 of the electric vehicle is provided with a first fixing groove that matches the first magnetic member 31, and the first magnetic member 31 is installed in the first fixing groove. The flip cover assembly 1 is provided with a second fixing groove that is adapted to the second magnetic member 32, and the second magnetic member 32 is installed in the second fixing groove.

[0051] When the flip-top assembly 1 is in the closed state, the first magnetic component 31 and the second magnetic component 32 are magnetically connected.

[0052] Optionally, the first magnetic attractor 31 and the second magnetic attractor 32 are configured as magnets with opposite magnetic poles.

[0053] Alternatively, the first magnetic member 31 and the second magnetic member 32 may be configured as a magnet and a metal part.
