Description

Steering wheel heating cover Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive accessories, and in particular to a steering wheel heating cover. Background Technology

[0002] The car steering wheel is a crucial component for drivers, and their correct use directly impacts driving safety. In winter, low temperatures can make the steering wheel feel cold, affecting driving. Steering wheel covers on the market typically come in two types: one is primarily made of plush material with a thick layer of fleece on the outer surface; the other lacks a thick fleece layer but has heating wires in the inner layer, which heat the cover and improve its cold-weather protection. Heated steering wheel covers are usually charged via a power cord connected to the car's cigarette lighter socket. However, this power cord is often quite long for convenient steering, which can affect driving and aesthetics and needs improvement.

[0038] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to Figures 1-6.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] Embodiment 1 of this application discloses a steering wheel heating cover. Referring to Figure 1, the steering wheel heating cover includes a heating cover body 1, a switch 2 mounted on the heating cover body 1, a heating wire 15 mounted inside the heating cover body 1, and a lithium battery 3 (not shown in the figure) mounted on the heating cover body 1. The lithium battery 3 is detachably connected to the outer wall of the heating cover body 1. The heating cover body 1 is used to cover the steering wheel.

[0041] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the lithium battery 3 powers the heating wire 15, and the switch 2 controls the on / off state of the circuit. Connectors for the circuit are mounted on the lithium battery 3. The switch 2 has a built-in timer; when the switch 2 is activated to power the lithium battery 3 for one hour, the timer activates to turn the switch 2 off. The switch 2 has a charging port 4 for charging the lithium battery 3.

[0042] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, two lithium batteries 3 are installed, both mounted on the outer wall of the heating sleeve 1, and connected in parallel. When the steering wheel is aligned, the two lithium batteries 3 are located on both sides of the heating sleeve 1 away from the human body (i.e., on both sides of the top of the steering wheel). An installation package 16 is integrally fixed to the heating sleeve 1, and a zipper 17 is installed on the installation package 16 for opening or closing. An anti-slip pad 7 is fixed to the outer wall of the heating sleeve 1 to increase friction and prevent slippage.

[0043] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a power display area 8 is installed on the switch 2. The power display area 8 is used to display the power level of the lithium battery 3. The power display area 8 contains four power display blocks 9. When all four power display blocks 9 are lit, the lithium battery 3 is fully charged. Whenever one power display block 9 goes dark, the power level of the lithium battery 3 decreases by 25%.

[0044] The implementation principle of a steering wheel heating cover according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: a lithium battery 3 is set to power the heating wire 15. The lithium battery 3 provides power when driving. When driving stops, the installation package 16 can be opened to remove the lithium battery 3 and take it away for charging. It is not necessary to remove the entire heating cover body 1, which saves the trouble of disassembly. The steering wheel heating cover is convenient to charge. The lithium battery 3, which serves as the power source, can be removed and taken away for charging. After that, it can be installed back on the heating cover body 1, which is more convenient. Moreover, there is no need to set a long power cord, which is convenient for driving and also makes the interior of the car look neat.

[0045] Example 2

[0046] Referring to Figures 3 and 4, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the installation method of the lithium battery 3. A first Velcro 5 is installed on the lithium battery 3, and a second Velcro 6 is fixed on the outer wall of the heating sleeve 1. The first Velcro 5 and the second Velcro 6 are attached together to fix the lithium battery 3 to the heating sleeve 1.

[0047] The implementation principle of Example 2 is as follows: the lithium battery 3 is fixed by the cooperation of the first Velcro 5 and the second Velcro 6, so that the lithium battery 3 is firmly fixed and easy to remove.

[0048] Example 3

[0049] Referring to Figures 5 and 6, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the installation method of the lithium battery 3. A mounting chamber 10 is fixed to the outer wall of the heating sleeve 1. The mounting chamber 10 has a mounting cavity 11 for accommodating the lithium battery 3 (not shown in the figure, see Figure 1). The mounting chamber 10 is electrically connected to the heating wire 15. The lithium battery 3 supplies power to the mounting chamber 10. After the lithium battery 3 is installed in the mounting chamber 10, it can supply power to the heating wire 15. A sealing cover 12 is installed on the mounting chamber 10, which confines the lithium battery 3 within the mounting chamber 10. A connecting protrusion 13 is fixed to the sealing cover 12. A connecting groove 14 is provided on the mounting chamber 10 for accommodating the connecting protrusion 13. The connecting protrusion 13 is accommodated within the connecting groove 14 so that the sealing cover 12 covers the mounting chamber 10.

[0050] The implementation principle of Example 3 is as follows: the lithium battery 3 is installed and fixed by the installation compartment 10, so that the lithium battery 3 is more firmly fixed and will not fall off the steering wheel heating cover.

[0051] 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.
