Fig. 1, 2, and 4 to 6 relate to a cup holder assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention, and for convenience of description, a positive direction of X corresponds to a right direction of the cup holder assembly, a negative direction of X corresponds to a left direction of the cup holder assembly, a positive direction of Y corresponds to a front direction of the cup holder assembly, and a negative direction of Y corresponds to a rear direction of the cup holder assembly.

Referring to fig. 1-9, embodiments of the cup holder assembly of the present invention will now be described. The cup holder assembly 100, which is generally used for being mounted on a console (central armrest area) of an automobile, includes a housing 1, a flip cover 2, and a connecting member 3.

The upper end of the shell 1 is open, a storage cavity is arranged in the shell, and the storage cavity can be used for containing a water cup, a water bottle, a cigarette case and the like.

The connecting piece 3 is not limited in structure, and can be a plate body, a rod body or other special-shaped pieces, which is a rotating medium between the shell 1 and the flip cover 2, the connecting piece 3 is rotatably arranged on the shell 1, and the connecting piece 3 is also hinged with the flip cover 2, so that the connecting piece 3 can rotate relative to the shell 1, and the flip cover 2 can also rotate relative to the connecting piece 3.

When the flip 2 is in the process of turning, the flip 2 rotates around the hinge point (or hinge shaft) of the flip 2 and the connecting element 3, and meanwhile, the connecting element 3 also rotates around the rotation axis of the connecting element 3 and the housing 1, so that the flip 2 also performs 'revolution' around the rotation axis of the rotating connecting element 3 and the housing 1 while rotating around the hinge point 'rotation' of the flip 2 and the connecting element 3, and in fact, a biaxial rotation mechanism is formed between the flip 2 and the housing 1.

If a common hinge structure is adopted between the flip cover 2 and the housing 1 to prevent the flip cover 2 from protruding out of the control panel 11, the flip cover 2 sweeps through the storage cavity of the housing 1 in an arc-shaped track, or the flip cover 2 sweeps through the arc-shaped track outside the housing 1 (i.e., in a vehicle). When the flip cover 2 passes through the storage cavity of the shell 1 along the arc-shaped track, the flip cover 2 interferes with the storage space of the storage cavity or the storage articles, and the size requirement of the shell is increased; the flip cover 2 sweeps over the arc-shaped track outside the shell 1 (i.e., the space in the vehicle), and the flip cover 2 is easily interfered with the control panel 11 or other interior trim parts in the vehicle due to the shortage of the space in the vehicle.

In this embodiment, by using the dual-axis rotating mechanism, the flip cover 2 can be flipped from the opening of the housing 1 (the flip cover 2 is located at the limit position above the housing 1) to the outside of the housing 1, and then extended into the storage cavity (the flip cover 2 is located at the limit position in the housing 1), so that the flip cover 2 can be flipped between two limit positions, and the space where the flip cover 2 sweeps (in a vehicle) during flipping can be reduced as much as possible, and the space where the flip cover sweeps in the storage cavity during flipping can also be reduced, and at the same time, the space requirement of the cup holder assembly provided by the embodiment of the present invention is reduced, and the use space is avoided for other parts.
