STORAGE FOR ONE VEHICLE

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a storage compartment for a vehicle, which has at least one storage surface. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for producing a storage compartment for a vehicle.

[0002] It is known from the prior art that storage compartments in the center console of a vehicle are used to store smaller items and / or a mobile device while driving. Good accessibility and reachability of these items or the mobile device is often only possible if the items or the mobile device are openly accessible. However, if the mobile device is a mobile phone, the exposed view of it may distract the driver. If the mobile phone's visibility is obscured, e.g., by blinds or covers, or the like, this reduces its reach.

[0003] Storage devices are known from DE 10 2015 222 685 A1, DE 20 2011 105 255 U1, DE 10 2016 006 346 A1, and JP S63 119447 U. A storage device according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from DE 10 2010 056291 A1.

[0004] It is therefore an object of the present invention to at least partially remedy the disadvantages described above. In particular, the object of the present invention is to increase the accessibility and reachability of stored objects and / or a mobile device when stored, and preferably simultaneously to enable safer operation of the vehicle and / or to propose a more cost-effective solution for storing a mobile device.

[0005] The above object is achieved by a filing system having the features of claim 1 and by a method having the features of claim 12. Further features and details of the invention emerge from the respective subclaims, the description, and the drawings. Features and details described in connection with the filing system according to the invention naturally also apply in connection with the method according to the invention, and vice versa, so that with regard to the disclosure of the individual aspects of the invention, reference is always made to each other.

[0006] The object is achieved by a storage device for a vehicle for accommodating at least one mobile device, preferably a mobile phone, comprising: a storage element which forms at least one receiving space for receiving the mobile (i.e. portable) device, a cover element which at least partially covers the receiving space so that preferably a view of the mobile device in the receiving space can be at least restricted, a lid element which is formed on the cover element, preferably surrounds it, and at least partially surrounds the cover element so that the lid element forms a storage surface (made of a soft component).

[0007] According to the invention, the cover element is hingedly connected to the storage element and at least partially covers the receiving space. The cover element is designed to stabilize at least the cover element and / or the entire storage space. This has the advantage that a simple stabilizing means can be used to cost-effectively provide a versatile storage space. Covering the receiving space by the cover element and / or the cover element further has the advantage that the view of the mobile device can be restricted, thus reducing the risk of distraction for a driver.

[0008] Preferably, the lid element and the cover element can be formed as a single piece and / or can be firmly and / or rigidly connected to one another. Preferably, opening the lid element and / or (jointly therewith) the cover element causes the receiving space to be at least partially uncovered, and thus, in the opened state of the lid and / or cover element, accessibility to the receiving space is increased compared to the closed state of the lid and / or cover element. This has the advantage that the mobile device can be removed more easily by opening (also: deflecting) the cover and / or lid element. In the closed state, however, the view of the mobile device is restricted, preferably so that the view of a display of the device is prevented.

[0009] Furthermore, the receiving space is preferably spatially delimited by a base of the receiving element and / or a wall of the receiving element and / or (at least partially in the closed state) by the cover and / or lid element. The area not delimited by this preferably forms an opening for the receiving space and preferably serves for inserting and removing the mobile device.

[0010] According to the invention, the cover element is made of a hard component, while the storage element and the lid element are each made of a soft component. This has the advantage that objects and / or the mobile device can be reliably and non-slipally accommodated in the storage when they contact the soft component, while simultaneously providing sufficient stability through the hard component. All components of the storage element and / or the lid element can be made of the soft component.

[0011] Consequently, in the storage according to the invention, it is provided that the cover element is made from a first material, a hard component, and the storage element and the lid element are made from a second material, a soft component, wherein the first material differs from the second material. Preferably, the second material can have greater elasticity than the first material and thus preferably be rubber-like. In other words, the storage element and / or the lid element can also be understood as a rubber mat. The first material or the hard component has a greater hardness than the second material or the soft component. Preferably, the first and / or second material is each designed as a plastic. The hardness of the first and / or second material can preferably be understood as a Shore hardness. For example.The first material and / or the cover element are rigid and / or non-elastic to provide sufficient stability for the shelf. The hard component can comprise, for example, a thermoplastic and / or a thermoplastic terpolymer and / or an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS). The soft component, in particular the soft component of the shelf molded onto the hard component, can comprise, for example, a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).

[0012] The storage element and / or the lid element and / or the storage surface of the lid element and / or the base of the storage element and / or the soft component can further be designed as a storage for the device and / or other objects for buffering and / or for securing and / or damping and / or to improve slip resistance. The elastic properties of the soft component are particularly utilized for this purpose. The soft component can accordingly exhibit greater elasticity than the hard component. In contrast, the cover element and / or the hard component can serve for stabilization, preferably as the only non-elastic and / or rigid element of the storage.

[0013] Furthermore, the tray according to the invention optionally features a two-component injection-molded part, preferably in one piece and / or monolithic. This enables a compact design and particularly cost-effective production.

[0014] It can be advantageous if, within the scope of the invention, a film hinge is provided which connects the lid element and / or the cover element to the storage element in a hinged manner. The film hinge is advantageously arranged in a rear region - i.e. on a back side - of the storage compartment, wherein the rear region may be the region which, when the storage compartment is inserted in the center console, is oriented towards the vehicle floor and / or is oriented away from the vehicle interior and / or the driver. This enables the driver to conveniently and easily fold open the lid element in order to remove the mobile device. An opening in the receiving space is preferably formed on a front side (i.e. side facing the driver or vehicle interior) of the storage compartment and is delimited by a front edge of the lid element and a front edge of the storage element at a distance therefrom.Particularly preferably, the opening is designed so that the mobile device can be inserted into the receiving space when the lid element is closed (with a smaller opening) without the lid element having to be opened. The opening is enlarged, for example, when the lid element is opened. To enable reliable opening, the film hinge can be molded onto the lid element and / or the storage element, preferably on the back of the storage.

[0015] Furthermore, in a storage compartment, the invention can provide that the film hinge is formed between a wall element and the storage surface of the cover element. Depending on the arrangement of the storage compartment in a center console or between an instrument panel and the center console, the wall element can be the rear wall element or the side wall element. Preferably, the wall element near which the film hinge is formed is the wall element in a rear region of the storage compartment that, when the storage compartment is inserted, faces away from the vehicle interior and / or the driver. In the region of the transition between the wall element and the storage surface, the material thickness of the cover element is reduced and is advantageously suitable for forming the film hinge.

[0016] Furthermore, in the case of a shelf, the invention can provide that the film hinge has at least one return element to assist the cover element when moving from an open state to a closed state. During operation of the shelf, if the cover element is opened and closed several times, it may happen that the cover element does not completely return to the intended closed state on its own. This can happen, for example, if at least one of the elastic elements of the shelf is subjected to excessive stress and / or stretching. There is a risk that the automatic closing of the foldable shelf is no longer fully ensured after repeated actuation. In the worst case, the shelf is damaged and has to be replaced. The return element can advantageously ensure that the cover element safely reaches its intended, closed state.This means that the service life of the storage unit can be extended considerably.

[0017] Furthermore, the invention can provide for the at least one return element to be resilient and / or elastic in a storage compartment. Thus, the lid element can advantageously be resiliently acted upon from the opened state to the closed state. Thus, the lid element can spring back into the closed state.

[0018] Within the scope of the invention, it is conceivable for the at least one return element to be formed from a soft component. The soft component can preferably be the same as that of the cover element. In this way, the manufacture of the return element can be simplified and can preferably be carried out together with the formation of the cover element. However, it is also conceivable for the return element to be subsequently attached to the cover element, for example by means of a material-to-material connection, such as gluing or welding. In this case, the return element can be made of the same or a different material than the cover element.

[0019] Furthermore, in the case of a storage unit, the invention can provide that the at least one return element is designed in the form of an S-shaped web or a C-shaped web.

[0020] Thus, a resilient function within the return element can be realized solely through the shape of the return element. When the lid element is opened, the return element can be compressed into the coils of the S-shaped web or into the curve of the C-shaped web. When the lid element is released, the return element relaxes, and the lid element springs back into its intended, closed state. Furthermore, it is conceivable that at least one return element could be designed in the form of a damping element or a cam, against which the lid element can simply cushion.

[0021] Furthermore, the invention can provide for a shelf that the at least one return element is formed between a rear wall element and a side wall element of the lid element. The film hinge runs at this point, and the lid element has a tapered portion there. A relatively short adjustment path of the return element can be realized here, so that the return element can stably transfer the lid element into the intended, closed state.

[0022] According to the invention, the cover element has at least one wall element which projects (preferably orthogonally) from an edge of the storage surface and thus delimits the storage surface, such that the cover element forms a tray for receiving objects. The at least one wall element thus protects objects received in the tray from falling out. This can additionally be supported by the storage surface on which the objects rest being non-slip and / or made of a soft component and / or being elastic. Furthermore, it can be possible for the (in particular entire) storage surface to cover the cover element (preferably completely). This ensures that the received objects only contact the storage surface and not the cover element, and yet the objects can rest stably on the cover element.Preferably, the storage element has at least one wall which protrudes from an edge of a base of the storage element, so that the storage element forms a shell which provides the receiving space for receiving the mobile device.

[0023] It may also be possible for the lid element to completely surround the cover element, with the exception of at least one side surface of the cover element, preferably by flooding the cover element. Preferably, the side surface extends in a plane parallel to an outer surface of a wall element of the lid element and / or orthogonal to the storage area. Thus, only that area of ​​the cover element which does not come into contact with objects stored in the storage area can be excluded from the covering by the lid element. This allows for the saving of material that is not required for secure storage.

[0024] Furthermore, in a storage unit, the invention can provide that the cover element has at least one locking element on a side surface, which can be brought into a releasable positive and / or non-positive connection with at least one counter-locking element of the storage element in order to fix the cover element in a closed state. Thus, the cover element can be fixed in the closed state using simple means and in a cost-effective manner. By snapping the locking element into the counter-locking element, the closed state is marked, thus avoiding errors when aligning the cover element. In addition, by snapping the locking element into the counter-locking element, haptic feedback can be given to the user that the closed state has been safely reached.

[0025] It is also possible to optionally configure the storage compartment as a mobile phone storage compartment, and the cover element for fully or partially covering the device's display can be configured as a mobile phone. This can reduce distractions while driving.

[0026] According to the invention, the storage compartment is designed to be inserted into a receptacle in a center console of the vehicle, wherein in particular the device can be received with a narrow side in the receiving space of the storage element. Furthermore, according to an alternative, the invention provides that the storage compartment is designed to be inserted into a receptacle between an instrument panel and a center console of the vehicle, wherein in particular the device can be received with a broad side in the receiving space of the storage element. This allows flexible use of the storage compartment in the vehicle. and preferably a base of the storage element is designed to transmit an electromagnetic signal from an adjacent coupling antenna of the vehicle to the device. The coupling antenna is located e.g.on the center console directly adjacent to the floor of the storage element, and is preferably used to amplify a mobile phone signal of the device and / or to carry out wireless charging, i.e. cable-free charging of a battery of the device.

[0027] The device can be configured, for example, as a mobile radio device for mobile radio communication and / or as a smartphone and / or as a tablet and / or as an electronic terminal and / or as an entertainment electronics device and / or as a small appliance. The device can preferably have a mobile radio interface and / or a display and / or a battery.

[0028] It is also advantageous if the vehicle is designed as a motor vehicle, in particular a trackless land vehicle, for example as a hybrid vehicle comprising an internal combustion engine and an electric motor for traction, or as an electric vehicle, preferably with a high-voltage electrical system and / or an electric motor. In particular, the vehicle can be designed as a fuel cell vehicle and / or passenger car. In embodiments of electric vehicles, no internal combustion engine is preferably provided in the vehicle; it is then powered exclusively by electrical energy. The vehicle preferably has a center console in the vehicle interior between the driver's seat and the front passenger seat, in which the storage compartment according to the invention can be inserted.

[0029] The invention also relates to a method for producing a storage compartment according to the invention for a vehicle for accommodating at least one mobile device. The following steps are carried out, preferably in any order or in the specified order: Producing a storage element from a soft component, producing a cover element from a hard component, flooding the cover element with a soft component to form a cover element, connecting the cover element, which surrounds the cover element, preferably via an injection-molded film hinge, to the storage element.

[0030] The method according to the invention thus brings with it the same advantages as have been described in detail with reference to a storage device according to the invention.

[0031] It may also be possible for at least one of the steps, preferably the production of the storage element and / or the production of the cover element and / or the flooding and / or the joining, to be carried out using a two-component injection molding process. In particular, with a two-component injection molding process, the steps of a method according to the invention can be carried out in a single tool; alternatively, without using the two-component injection molding process, at least two tools can be used for these steps or for producing the storage element.

[0032] Further advantages, features, and details of the invention will become apparent from the following description, which describes embodiments of the invention in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0033] In the following figures, identical reference numerals are used for the same technical features, even in different embodiments.

[0034] In Figure 1 A storage compartment 10 according to the invention is shown schematically. The storage compartment 10 according to the invention can be suitable for use in a center console 3 of a vehicle 2 to accommodate at least one mobile device 1. The mobile device 1 is designed, for example, as a mobile phone or smartphone or the like.

[0035] In Figure 1It is also shown that the storage compartment 10 according to the invention can have a cover element 20, which is made, for example, from a hard component. Furthermore, a cover element 30 and a storage element 40 can be provided, each made from a soft component. The cover element 30 can form an upper shell of the storage compartment 10 according to the invention for receiving small objects. The storage element 40 can form a lower shell of the storage compartment 10 according to the invention for receiving the mobile device 1. The directions refer to the vehicle directions when the storage compartment 10 according to the invention is inserted into the vehicle or the center console.

[0036] The storage element 40 can form a receiving space 41 for receiving the device 1. The cover element 20 can at least partially cover the receiving space 41, for example, to prevent a view of a display 6 of the mobile device 1. The lid element 30 can be formed on the cover element 20 and at least partially surround it, so that the lid element 30 forms a storage surface 31. This storage surface 31 can thus provide a non-slip storage for small objects. Figure 1It can be seen that the cover element 30 completely surrounds the cover element 20, or completely surrounds the cover element 20, with the exception of at least one side surface 21 of the cover element 20. It can also be seen that the side surface 21 extends in a plane parallel to an outer surface of a wall element 32 of the cover element 30 and orthogonal to the storage surface 31. Thus, only that region of the cover element 20 which cannot come into contact with deposited objects of the storage 10 according to the invention is not covered by the cover element 30.

[0037] The storage area 31 is defined by at least one wall element 32, which protrudes from an edge 33 of the storage area 31 and thus defines the latter. The storage element 40 has a similar structure, similar to a tray, forming a base 42 with a wall 43 protruding from its edge. In this way, the receiving space 41 can be formed in such a way that an object located therein, or the mobile device 1, cannot fall out.

[0038] On the Figure 1 A film hinge 50 can also be formed on the rear side of the shelf 10 according to the invention, in order to connect the cover element 20 or the lid element 30 in a foldable manner to the shelf element 40. This makes it possible to move the shelf 10 according to the invention from a closed state (in Figure 3 shown) into an unfolded state (in Figure 4 shown).

[0039] In Figure 2A center console 3 of a vehicle 2 is schematically shown, which has a receptacle 4 for a storage compartment 10 according to the invention. A coupling antenna 5 can be integrated into the receptacle 4, which serves for the signal connection with a mobile device 1. Furthermore, various interfaces 7, e.g. USB interfaces, can be provided on the center console 3 for the data connection with the mobile device 1. In the Figure 2 A broad side B and a narrow side A of the device 1 are indicated by double arrows. In the embodiment of the Figure 2 The receptacle 4 is formed in the center console 3. The mobile device 1 is inserted with a narrow side A into the receiving space 41 of the storage element 40. Within the scope of the invention, in addition to the Figure 2shown receptacle 4 for the storage compartment 1 according to the invention, other receptacles 4 in the vehicle 2 are also conceivable. A further possible receptacle 4 for the storage compartment 10 according to the invention in the vehicle 2 is described below with the aid of the Figures 8 and 9 received.

[0040] In Figures 3 and 4 the storage compartment 10 according to the invention is shown in an inserted state in the center console 3. It can be seen that also in the Figure 3 In the closed state shown, a mobile device 1 can be easily inserted, in particular with the narrow side A, into the receiving space 41. To remove the mobile device 1, the tray 10 according to the invention can also be Figure 4 The necessary stability is provided by the cover element 20.

[0041] In Figure 5A mount 4 of a center console 3 is shown in further detail. It can be seen that a structural adaptation 8 of the mount 4 can be provided for a coupling antenna 5 to enable a connection between the device 1 and the coupling antenna 5. A corresponding adaptation can, if necessary, be provided on the base 42 of the storage element 40.

[0042] Figure 6 shows an exemplary embodiment of the storage 10 according to the invention, in which a mobile device 1 is inserted into the receiving space 41. It may be possible for the mobile device 1 to be pushed so far into the receiving space 41 that an upper side of the mobile device 1 is completely covered by the storage surface 31 and / or the cover element 20.

[0043] Figure 7shows a storage unit 10 according to the invention, in which the cover element 30 is in the opened state. The opening is made possible, for example, by a film hinge 50 on the back of the storage unit 10 according to the invention, which may extend partially along an edge 33 of the storage surface 31. Furthermore, Figure 7 It can be seen that the cover element 20 is surrounded by a soft component according to a method according to the invention in order to form the cover element 20.

[0044] The Figures 8 and 9 show a further possible receptacle 4 for the storage compartment 10 according to the invention in an interior of the vehicle 2. This receptacle 4 can be located, for example, between an instrument panel 9 and a center console 3 of the vehicle 2. It is conceivable that the device 1 can be accommodated with a broad side B in the receiving space 41 of the storage element 40. The storage compartment 10 can be essentially the same as the storage compartment 10 according to the Figure 1 or 2be formed, with the exception that the receiving space 41 is open from a broad side B of the device. Further features of the shelf 10, such as a film hinge 50 for opening the cover element 30, a return element 52, 53 for springing back the cover element 30, etc., can also be provided in the Figures 8 and 9 shown shelf 10.

[0045] The Figures 8 and 9 show that the cover element 30 can have soft, elastic grooves 23 on the underside to prevent damage to the mobile device 1. On the top side, for example on the support surface 31, the cover element 30 can have a structure 24 to prevent small objects from slipping.

[0046] As the Figure 10shows, the film hinge 50 can be formed between a wall element 32 and the storage surface 31 of the cover element 30. The film hinge 50 has a folding / rotation axis 51 for opening or closing the cover element 30. Depending on the arrangement of the storage 10 in the center console 3 according to the Figure 2 or between the instrument panel 9 and the center console 3 according to the Figure 8 The wall element 32 can be the rear wall element 32a or the side wall element 32b. Preferably, the wall element 32 near which the film hinge 50 is formed faces away from the vehicle interior and / or the driver.

[0047] As it further the Figures 11 and 12As shown, the film hinge 50 can have at least one return element 52, 53 to assist the cover element 30 in moving from the unfolded state to the folded state. Preferably, a return element 52, 53 can be provided at the left and right ends of the corresponding wall element 32. After compression, the return element 52 causes the cover element 30 to spring back from the unfolded state to the folded state.

[0048] Within the scope of the invention, it is conceivable that the at least one return element 52, 53 can be designed to be resilient and / or elastic. The at least one return element 52, 53 can, for example, be formed from the same soft component as the cover element 30 or from a different material.

[0049] In the Figures 11 and 12Two variants of the return element 52, 53 are shown, namely in the form of an S-shaped web 52 or a C-shaped web 53. By shaping the return element 52, 53 in this way, springback can be achieved after compression of the return element 52, 53. When the cover element 30 is opened, the return element 52, 53 is pressed together in the turns of the S-shaped web 52 or in the curve of the C-shaped web 53. When the cover element 30 is released, the return element 52, 53 is released and the cover element 30 springs back into the intended closed state. Further embodiments of the return element 52, 53 are also conceivable within the scope of the invention, for example in the form of damping elements or in the form of cams for cushioning a folding movement of the cover element 30 against a corresponding wall element 32.

[0050] As it also appears from the Figures 11 and 12As can be seen, the at least one return element 52, 53 can be formed between a rear wall element 32a and a side wall element 32b of the cover element 30. The film hinge 50 extends in this area. The cover element 30 has a taper at the film hinge 50. In this area, a relatively short adjustment path of the return element 52, 53 can be realized in order to be able to transfer the cover element 30 relatively stably into the intended, closed state.

[0051] In the Figure 13 It can be seen that the storage element 40 can have a shape in the form of an opening aid 45 in order to facilitate opening of the cover element 30. Furthermore, the Figures 13 and 14that the cover element 20 has at least one locking element 22 on a side surface 21 (two locking elements 22 are shown as an example). The locking element 22 can be brought into a releasable, positive and / or non-positive connection with at least one counter-locking element 44 of the storage element 40 in order to fix the cover element 30 in a closed state.

[0052] The above explanation of the embodiments describes the present invention exclusively by way of example. Of course, individual features of the embodiments can be freely combined with one another, provided that they are technically feasible, without departing from the scope of the present invention, which is defined by the following claims.
