Description

Ashtray which is opened and closed in conjunction with cigarette lighter jack

The present invention relates to a vehicle ashtray, more specifically, the cigarette lighter jack is installed on the front panel of the vehicle when the driver and passengers are separated from the cigarette lighter socket, and the ashtray which puts cigarette butts is automatically The present invention relates to a ashtray which is opened and closed in conjunction with a cigarette lighter jack which allows the ashtray to be quickly opened by protruding from the ash.

In general, a car audio, ashtray and cigarette lighter jack are installed on the front panel of the vehicle. 1 is a perspective view schematically showing a typical vehicle ashtray. Referring to FIG. 1, the cigarette lighter jack 10 is usually inserted into a cigarette lighter socket (not shown), and when a user such as a driver or a passenger smokes using the cigarette lighter jack 10. The cigarette lighter jack 10 is separated from the cigarette lighter socket for use. After lighting the cigarette using the cigarette lighter jack 10, the user opens the ashtray 12 provided on the front panel of the vehicle interior by hand to put cigarette ashes and cigarette butts. At this time, when the driver is driving, holding the steering wheel with one hand and the ashtray 12 should be opened with the other hand is not only inconvenient but there is a risk of an accident. In addition, after the ashtray 12 is used, the user directly inserts the ashtray 12 into the inner part of the case provided on the front panel to store the ashtray. The ashtray 12 smoothly covers the case provided on the front panel. Since it is not inserted, a force of a certain intensity must be applied to the ashtray so that the ashtray is inserted into the case. Therefore, the driver can not drive safely there is a problem that there is a risk of accidents.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, the object of the present invention is to remove the cigarette lighter jack from the cigarette lighter socket in order to smoke in the interior of the vehicle ashtray installed on the front panel of the vehicle By automatically protruding from the front panel, the ashtray is opened to provide a ashtray that is opened and closed in conjunction with a cigarette lighter jack that allows the ashtray to be used quickly by the smoker.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is provided with a ashtray case in which ashtrays are inserted in a front panel provided at one side of the vehicle compartment, a gear part is provided in a lower end portion of the ashtray inserted in the case, and the gear part is a microcomputer. It is controlled by the movement means for moving the ashtray back and forth to provide a ashtray that is opened and closed in conjunction with the cigarette lighter jack.

According to the present invention, when a user such as a driver or a passenger detaches the cigarette lighter jack provided in the interior of the vehicle from the cigarette lighter socket to smoke in the interior of the vehicle, the ashtray is automatically opened from the ashtray. Therefore, when the user smokes using the cigarette lighter jack, the ashtray is automatically opened, so it is convenient to smoke without taking a separate action.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

2 is a schematic view showing a vehicle ashtray according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the ashtray opened and linked to the cigarette lighter jack will be described. First, a cigarette lighter jack 30 is connected to the cigarette lighter socket 40 to which power is supplied from the battery, and the cigarette lighter jack 30 is detached by the user. The cigarette lighter jack 30 is connected to the cigarette lighter socket 40, and the jack sensor 50 is connected to the cigarette lighter socket 40, and the jack sensor 50 is connected to the cigarette lighter socket 40. Will be detected. The microcomputer 60 is connected to the jack detecting sensor 50 and the off switch 62, and the microcomputer 60 is connected to the motor 70 according to a signal applied from the jack detecting sensor 50 or the off switch 62. Will rotate forward or reverse. The rotor 80 is connected to the motor 70, the operation of which is controlled by the microcomputer 60, and the pinion gear 82 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the rotor 80 so that the rotor 80 is a motor ( 70 and smoothly forward or reverse rotation. And the ashing body 90 is connected to the rotating body 80, the pinion gear 82 of the rotating body 80 to the lower end of the ashing body 90 Rack gear 94 is provided to be connected to).

When the present invention made in this way described in detail through an embodiment are as follows. First, when the driver or passenger detaches the cigarette lighter jack 30 from the cigarette lighter socket 40 in order to use the cigarette lighter jack 30, the jack detection sensor provided at one side of the cigarette lighter socket 40 50 detects this and applies the detected signal to the microcomputer 60. The microcomputer 60 applies the operation signal to the motor 70 immediately after the cigarette lighter jack 30 is separated from the cigarette lighter socket 40 by the jack detecting sensor 50 to fix the motor 70. Rotated. When the motor 70 rotates forward, the rotating body 80 connected to the motor 70 performs forward rotation in conjunction with the motor 70. When the rotating body 80 is rotated forward, the ashtray 90 connected to the rotating body 80 protrudes toward the front. That is, the pinion gear 82 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the rotating body 80, and the rack gear 94 of the ash tray 90 is fastened to each other on the pinion gear 82 so that the rotating body 80 performs forward rotation. When the ashtray 90 is automatically moved to the front to protrude out of the front panel is opened. Therefore, when the driver or passenger smokes using the cigarette lighter 70, the ashtray 90 may be automatically opened, and thus the ashtray 90 may be used without taking a separate operation. On the contrary, when the passenger or the driver closes the ashtray 90 after using the ashtray 90 while the ashtray 90 is open, the passenger or driver presses the off switch 62. When the off switch 62 is pressed, the microcomputer 60 immediately rotates the motor 70. When the motor 70 rotates in reverse, the rotating body 80 integrally connected to the motor 70 also rotates in reverse, and when the rotating body 80 reverses, the ashtray 90 is automatically rotated. Is inserted into the front panel and closed. That is, the rack gear 94 of the ashtray 90 connected to the rotor 80 by the function of the pinion gear provided on the outer circumferential surface of the rotor 80 moves in accordance with the rotation of the pinion gear 82. Therefore, the ashtray 90 is closed by moving to the inside of the front panel. At this time, when pressing the off switch 62, one end is installed on the rear part of the ashtray 90 and the other end is quickly closed by the compression force of the compression spring 92 installed on the ashtray case. .

As can be seen from the above description, the present invention is to re-attach the ashtray case automatically when the user, such as a driver or a passenger to remove the cigarette lighter jack provided in the interior of the vehicle from the cigarette lighter socket for smoking in the interior of the vehicle Open from Therefore, when the user smokes using the cigarette lighter jack, the ashtray is automatically opened, so it is convenient to smoke without taking a separate action.
