As shown in fig. 1-6, the present application provides a vehicle (not shown). The vehicle includes a body and a storage case 100. The vehicle body includes a cabin and an instrument panel 200 provided to the cabin. The instrument panel 200 includes a groove 210 recessed from one side of the cabin. The storage bin 100 is received in the recess 210. When a passenger sits in the cabin, the instrument panel 200 is located directly in front of the driver and the co-driver. Meanwhile, vehicle functional components such as sound equipment, an air conditioning port and the like are arranged on the instrument panel 200. The storage space of the vehicle can be increased through the arrangement of the storage box 100, passengers can conveniently place the scattered articles in the storage box 100, and the cleanliness in a cabin is improved.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the storage bin 100 includes a bin body 1. The case 1 includes a back plate 11, a face plate 12, a housing chamber 13, and an opening 14 communicating with the housing chamber 13. The back plate 11 and the front plate 12 are oppositely disposed in the first direction X. The receiving chamber 13 is provided between the face plate 12 and the back plate 11, and the opening 14 is provided to the face plate 12. The back panel 11 is understood to be the side of the case 1 that is not visible to the occupant during normal use of the vehicle, while the front panel 12 is the side of the case that is visible to the occupant. The passenger can store articles into the receiving chamber 13 or take articles out of the receiving chamber 13 through the opening 14.

In various embodiments of the present application, the storage bin 100 further includes a telescoping member 2. The telescopic member 2 comprises a fixed end 21 connected to the vehicle body and a pivoting end 22 pivotally connected to the back plate 11. The telescopic member 2 is telescopic in a first direction X to bring the case 1 to reciprocate in the first direction X. As shown in fig. 1, the telescopic member 2 is retracted in the first direction X at this time, and thus the case 1 is completely accommodated in the recess 210. As shown in fig. 2, the extension member 2 extends in the first direction X at this time, so that the case 1 can be exposed in the recess 210.

As can be seen, the storage case 100 of the present application is capable of changing the relative position between the case 1 and the instrument panel 200. The telescopic member 2 can be extended when a passenger needs to access an article from the receiving chamber 13, thereby facilitating the access of the passenger. In addition, since the case 1 can be protruded from the recess 210, even if the co-driver needs to access the article from the receiving chamber 13 during the running of the vehicle, the co-driver does not need to lean forward to a great extent. In this way, the access operation of the secondary driver can be reduced to shield the rearview mirror, and the driving safety rate of the vehicle can be improved to a certain extent. And passengers do not need to consider whether the access action can cause driving influence any more, which is beneficial to improving riding experience.

When the telescopic member 2 is fully retracted in the first direction X, the case 1 may be protruded from the groove 210, fully received in the groove 210, or the panel 12 may be flush with the surface of the instrument panel 200 to match the exterior effect of the instrument panel 200, which is not limited in this application.

The fixed end 21 is fixedly connected with the vehicle body in a plurality of ways. For example, the fixed end 21 of the telescopic member 2 may be connected to the bottom wall of the recess 210 of the instrument panel 200. In this way, the storage box 100 may be integrally assembled in the groove 210, and then the instrument panel 200 is assembled in the cabin, thereby realizing the assembly of the storage box 100, and facilitating the simplification of the assembly process. Alternatively, the fixed end 21 of the telescopic member 2 may be connected to a sheet metal member of the vehicle body. Since the instrument panel 200 is generally formed of an injection-molded piece or a combination of soft skin materials, the strength is low. Through fixing end 21 and sheet metal component fixed connection, the connecting stability of extensible member 2 and automobile body can be improved, consequently extensible member 2 also can be improved to the supporting effect of box 1.

It should be noted that the first direction X referred to in this application may be regarded as the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, i.e. the connecting direction of the head and the tail. The width direction Y is the connection direction between the driver's seat and the passenger seat. The height direction Z is the connection direction of the roof and the chassis of the vehicle. It is easy to understand that the first direction X, the width direction Y, and the height direction Z are perpendicular to each other. This is not repeated here.

In some embodiments, the number of telescoping members 2 comprises a plurality. The arrangement of the plurality of telescopic members 2 is such that the housing 1 is rotatable about at least one rotation axis.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, two telescopic members 2 are arranged in the height direction Z of the vehicle. In the state shown in fig. 2, the extension lengths of the two telescopic members 2 are the same, and thus the storage bin 100 is in a "vertical" state. At this time, the telescopic member 2 only drives the box body 1 to translate in the first direction X, so that the relative displacement between the articles in the accommodating cavity 13 and the box body 1 is small or even absent. In the state shown in fig. 3, the extension length of the extension member 2 located at the upper side of fig. 3 is longer than the extension length of the extension member 2 located at the lower side of fig. 3, and thus the opening 14 of the storage case 100 is inclined downward. In another state, the vehicle may also be such that the extension length of the extension member 2 located at the upper side of fig. 3 is shorter than the extension length of the extension member 2 located at the lower side of fig. 3, and thus the opening 14 of the storage case 100 is inclined upward. In other words, in this embodiment, the rotation axis of the casing 1 is parallel to the width direction Y.

By such an arrangement, the storage case 100 can adjust the posture of the storage case 100 in case of different demands of passengers. When the passenger needs to pour out the articles in the storage cavity 13, the storage box 100 is inclined downwards by adjusting the extending length of the telescopic piece 2, so that the opening 14 of the storage box 100 is inclined downwards, and the passenger is assisted to take out the articles from the storage cavity 13. When a passenger needs to take and put an article in the storage compartment 13, the storage compartment 100 is tilted upward by adjusting the telescopic length of the telescopic member 2 such that the opening 14 of the storage compartment 100 is tilted upward. In this way, the passenger can take and put articles from the storage chamber 13 through the opening 14 without bending down to lean. The upward opening 14 can reduce the blind angle of view of the storage chamber 13, and can prevent passengers from leaving the objects in the storage chamber 13.

In another alternative embodiment, the plurality of telescopic members 2 are arranged in the width direction Y of the vehicle. As shown in fig. 4, the telescopic length of the telescopic member 2 located at the left side of fig. 4 is smaller than that of the telescopic member 2 located at the right side, and thus the opening 14 is inclined toward the left side of fig. 4. In the embodiment where the vehicle is a left-rudder vehicle, the driver's seat is located to the left of the co-driver's seat, and thus this tilting facilitates the driver's access to the items from the receiving chamber 13 through the opening 14. Indeed, the telescopic member 2 of fig. 4 may also be such that the telescopic length of the telescopic member 2 on the left side is greater than the telescopic length of the telescopic member 2 on the right side, so that the opening 14 is inclined towards the right side of fig. 4. Alternatively, the telescoping lengths of the two telescoping rods are the same such that the opening 14 is forward to the copilot, which is not limiting in this application. In other words, in this embodiment, the rotation axis of the casing 1 is parallel to the height direction Z.

By this arrangement, the opening 14 of the storage case 100 can be oriented toward the driver. In this way, when the driver wishes to access the article from the receiving chamber 13 at the driving position, the driver no longer needs to lean to reach the body to the co-driving position, which is advantageous for improving the comfort of the body. Meanwhile, as the opening 14 faces the driver, the blind area of the sight line and the blind area of the touch of the storage cavity 13 can be reduced for the driver, which is beneficial to the convenience of the driver to find the objects.

To further increase the flexibility of movement of the case 1, in some embodiments the number of telescopic members 2 comprises at least three, and the wires of the three telescopic members 2 are not parallel in pairs. For example, the number of the telescopic members 2 includes three, and the connecting lines of the three telescopic members 2 are triangular. Alternatively, the number of the expansion pieces 2 includes four, and the connection line of the four expansion pieces 2 is quadrangular. By this arrangement, the case 1 can be rotated about at least two rotation axes. Thus, the orientation of the opening 14 can be flexibly adjusted to facilitate access to the article by the passenger.

In an alternative embodiment, the number of telescopic members 2 includes four, and the connecting lines of the four telescopic members 2 are regular quadrilaterals, i.e. rectangles or squares. When the case 1 is desired to be tilted as shown in fig. 3, the two telescopic members 2 located above are ejected, and the two telescopic members 2 located below are relatively retracted. When the case 1 is desired to be tilted as shown in fig. 4, the two telescopic members 2 on the right side are ejected, and the two telescopic members 2 on the left side are relatively retracted. In this way, the plurality of telescopic members 2 can form a stable support for the case 1. When the passenger accesses the articles, the retraction, angle change and even damage of the box body 1 are not caused even if the passenger is excessively forced.

In the above-described embodiments, the telescopic member 2 may be provided as a hydraulic telescopic member 2. The hydraulic telescopic member 2 can be used for fine adjustment of the extending distance, so that passengers can conveniently perform fine adjustment of the angle of the opening 14, and accordingly the storage box 100 can be correspondingly adjusted for passengers with different shapes and using habits. In addition, the hydraulic telescopic piece 2 is stable in transmission in the telescopic process, and vibration displacement and liquid leakage to objects in the storage cavity 13 can be avoided. At the same time, the noise of the hydraulic telescoping is small, and thus the noise of the reciprocating movement of the telescoping member 2 in the first direction X is small, thereby reducing the interference to the passengers.

To further facilitate the access of the items in the receiving cavity 13 by the passengers, in some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, 2, 3 and 5, the case 1 includes a storage plate 15 provided in the receiving cavity 13, and a bottom plate 16 connecting the back plate 11 and the face plate 12. The storage bin 100 further includes an overhead member 3. One end of the jack-up member 3 is fixedly connected with the bottom plate 16, and the other end is pivotally connected with the object placing plate 15. The length of the jack-up member 3 can be varied to vary the distance between the storage plate 15 and the bottom plate 16. As shown in fig. 1, the jack-up member 3 in the storage case 100 is in a retracted state. As shown in fig. 5, the jack 3 located at the left side of fig. 5 jacks up, and thus the angle of the storage plate 15 changes. The change in position of the storage plate 15 in the height direction Z can change the depth of the storage chamber 13 to some extent. When the jack-up member 3 jacks up, the passenger can more clearly see or more easily touch the articles at the bottom of the accommodating cavity, so that the cooperation of the article placing plate 15 and the jack-up member 3 can improve the convenience of the passenger for accessing the articles.

In fact, the jack-up element 3 is similar to the telescopic element 2, with the difference that the telescopic element 2 is used to change the position of the box 1 in the first direction X and to change the angle of the box 1, while the jack-up element 3 is used to change the position of the storage plate 15 in the height direction Z and to change the angle of the storage plate 15. Thus, the embodiments described above for the telescopic element 2 are equally applicable to the jacking element 3.

For example, the jack-up element 3 can also be provided as a hydraulic jack-up element 3. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 4, in some embodiments, the jack-up member 3 includes a plurality of. One part of the plurality of jack-up members 3 is distributed in the first direction X, and the other part is distributed in the second direction. The second direction shown in fig. 4 is actually the width direction Y. However, in other embodiments, the second direction may be any direction different from the width direction Y and the first direction X, for example, 30 °, 45 °, 60 ° or the like, which is not limited in this application.

Similar to the telescopic member 2, this arrangement makes the inclination angle of the storage plate 15 variable, so that the passenger can adjust the angle of the storage plate 15 according to his desired touch position or placement position. In other embodiments, the plurality of lifters 3 may also be distributed in only one direction, i.e. in only the first direction X or in only the second direction. In this embodiment, the axis of rotation of the storage plate 15 is then perpendicular to the connection direction of the plurality of lifting elements 3.

It should be noted that the number, arrangement, etc. of the plurality of jack-up members 3 are the same as those of the telescopic members 2, and for brevity of description, this application will not be repeated.

In embodiments in which the number of lifters 3 includes a plurality, the storage bin 100 may further include a position detector 4 and a controller 5, in conjunction with fig. 6. The position detector 4 is used to detect the position of a human hand. The controller 5 is electrically connected to the jack-up member 3 and the position detector 4. Wherein the controller 5 controls the jack-up member 3 according to the hand position so that the portion of the object placing plate 15 near the hand position moves toward the hand. Taking the embodiment shown in fig. 4 as an example, when the passenger's hand moves back and forth in the receiving cavity 13 to fumbly for an article, assuming that the position detector 4 detects that the position of the human hand is at the upper right corner of the receiving cavity 13 in fig. 4, the controller 5 controls the jacking member 3 at the upper right corner to be higher in jacking height so that the upper right corner of the storage plate 15 moves toward the human hand. In this way, the movement of the storage plate 15 can be matched with the movement of the hands of the passengers, so that the objects in the storage cavity 13 are actively delivered towards the hands of the passengers, and the function of assisting the passengers in finding the objects is achieved.

The position detector 4 may be a camera, a thermal imager, a radar, or the like, which is not limited in this application.

In some embodiments, the case 1 further comprises a flexible sealing layer (not shown). The flexible sealing layer is arranged on the wall surfaces of the storage plate 15 and the storage cavity 13 and is respectively connected with the wall surfaces of the storage plate 15 and the storage cavity 13. The storage panels 15 are usually provided as rigid panels, since the storage panels 15 need to have a certain load-bearing capacity. When the jack 3 jacks up the storage plate 15, a gap exists between the storage plate 15 and the wall surface of the storage cavity 13, so that fine objects can easily enter between the storage plate 15 and the bottom wall through the gap. The provision of the flexible sealing layer can block fine articles from entering the gap so as not to be mistaken by passengers for the articles in the accommodating cavity 13 to be lost.

More and more vehicles are currently equipped with a display device 220. The display device 220 can be used to display interfaces for vehicle music, map navigation, cell phone address book, vehicle settings, etc. In this embodiment, the storage bin 100 may further include a scanning imaging structure 9 for scanning and imaging the items in the receiving cavity 13. The scanning imaging structure 9 is electrically connected to the display device 220 such that the display device 220 is capable of displaying images scanned by the scanning imaging structure 9. In other words, the scanning imaging structure 9 is able to present the placement of the items in the receiving cavity 13 on the display device 220, assisting the passenger in determining whether the item he wishes to find is in the receiving cavity 13, at which position in the receiving cavity 13. Thus, the passenger can judge the articles through the display device 220, and then go to the storage cavity 13 to take the articles after confirming that the articles are positioned in the storage cavity 13, without looking for the articles by looking for, blindly touching or even taking the articles out of the storage cavity 13, thereby improving the efficiency of article storage.

It should be noted that in some embodiments, the scanning imaging structure 9 may be other electronic devices such as a mobile phone, a computer, etc. that send the imaging result to the passenger, so as to meet the use requirements of the passenger of the vehicle without the display device 220. Meanwhile, the scanning imaging structure 9 may be a camera structure, thereby forming actual imaging. Alternatively, the scanning imaging structure 9 may be a radar structure and generate a simplified image, as this application is not limited in this regard.

In an alternative embodiment, the storage bin 100 further comprises an illumination structure 6. The illumination structure 6 includes an illumination switch 61 and an illumination lamp 62. The illumination lamp 62 is disposed in the receiving chamber 13. The illumination switch 61 is electrically connected to the illumination lamp 62 to control the switching of the illumination lamp 62. Since the storage bin 100 is inserted into the recess 210, the storage bin 100 can communicate with only the opening 14 of the receiving cavity 13. Therefore, the light condition of the housing chamber 13 is insufficient in many cases. The illumination lamp 62 is provided to assist the passenger in better viewing of the contents of the receiving chamber 13 at night when the light condition is insufficient. Meanwhile, the illumination switch 61 can turn on the illumination lamp 62 again when the passenger needs light supplement, which is beneficial to reducing the electricity consumption of the illumination lamp 62 to the vehicle power supply 230.

Generally, the case 1 further includes a cover 17 for exposing or closing the opening 14. The arrangement of the cover 17 not only prevents articles such as dust from entering the storage chamber 13, but also prevents articles in the storage chamber 13 from leaving the storage chamber 13 through the opening 14 during sudden braking of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the lighting structure 6 may also include a switch sensor 63 disposed between the panel 12 and the cover 17. The switch sensor 63 detects opening and closing of the cover 17, and is electrically connected to the illumination switch 61. When the switch sensor 63 detects that the cover 17 is opened, the illumination switch 61 controls the illumination lamp 62 to be turned on, thereby enabling the illumination structure 6 to automatically provide the passenger with light supplement. When the switch sensor 63 detects that the cover 17 is closed, the illumination switch 61 controls the illumination lamp 62 to be turned off, so that the passenger does not need to manually turn off the illumination lamp 62 any more, the use feeling of the passenger is improved, and the electric power consumption of the power supply 230 is reduced.

Indeed, the lighting structure 6 may also be configured to control the turning on of the illumination lamp 62 only when the opening/closing sensor 63 detects that the cover 17 is turned on, or to control the turning off of the illumination lamp 62 only when the opening/closing sensor 63 detects that the cover 17 is turned off, which is not limited in this application.

In some embodiments, the storage case 100 further includes a sterilization structure 7 disposed in the storage cavity 13 for sterilizing the storage cavity 13. For example, the sterilizing structure 7 may be an ultraviolet lamp or a spraying device for spraying sterilizing alcohol at regular time. By providing the sterilization structure 7, the storage case 100 can perform a function of sterilizing the articles in the storage chamber 13. In this way, the passenger does not need to worry about mildew of the articles placed in the closed receiving chamber 13. Or, the passengers can put articles such as gloves, masks and the like in the accommodating cavity 13 for sterilization and disinfection after getting on the vehicle, so that the requirements of the passengers on sanitation are met.

Currently, commercially available vehicles include an Air-conditioning (HVAC) system. The air conditioning system 240 includes a cooling duct and a heating duct that are communicated to the cabin so that cool or warm air can be delivered to the cabin to regulate the temperature in the cabin. As shown in fig. 5, in some embodiments, the storage bin 100 further includes an air duct 8 that communicates with the receiving cavity 13. The air duct 8 is used for connecting with a refrigerating pipeline and a heating pipeline of the vehicle. In this way, the air conditioning system 240 is able to deliver cool air into the receiving cavity 13 through the duct 8 to reduce the temperature of the receiving cavity 13. Alternatively, the air conditioning system 240 can deliver hot air into the receiving cavity 13 through the duct 8 to raise the temperature of the receiving cavity 13. By this arrangement, the passenger can temporarily store the food in the storage chamber 13 and cool or heat the food as needed to improve the freshness keeping function of the vehicle for the food. For example, a passenger may place a cold drink in the receiving cavity 13 and deliver cold air into the receiving cavity 13 through the air conditioning system 240, thereby prolonging the cold aging of the cold drink. Alternatively, the passenger may place the packed lunch box in the storage chamber 13 and transport warm air into the storage chamber 13 through the air conditioning system 240, thereby achieving heat preservation of the lunch box.

In the embodiment provided with the sterilizing structure 7, the sterilizing structure 7 can also sterilize the receiving cavity 13 to avoid bad smell and mildew of the receiving cavity 13 due to the liquid and the like remaining in the receiving cavity 13.

It should be noted that in embodiments where the air ducts 8 are used to connect with the cooling and heating conduits of the vehicle, the number of air ducts 8 may include two, with one air duct 8 connected with the cooling conduit and another air duct 8 connected with the heating conduit. Alternatively, the air duct 8 may include only one air duct 8, and the cooling pipe and the heating pipe are connected to the air duct 8 at the same time.

In other implementations, for example, the air conditioning system 240 has only a cooling duct or a heating duct, and the air duct 8 may be connected only to the cooling duct or only to the heating duct. Alternatively, the air conditioning system 240 is provided with both a cooling pipeline and a heating pipeline, but the air duct 8 is connected to only one of the heating pipeline and the cooling pipeline, so that the air conditioning system 240 can only realize cold or heat insulation to the storage cavity 13, which is not limited in this application.
