Detailed ways

The making and using of the embodiments are discussed in detail below. It should be understood, however, that the specific embodiments discussed are merely illustrative of specific ways to make and use the disclosure, and do not limit the scope of the disclosure. The expression of the structural position of each component such as up, down, top, bottom, etc. in the description is not absolute, but relative. These directional expressions are appropriate when the various components are arranged as shown in the drawings, but when the positions of the various components in the drawings are changed, these directional expressions are also changed accordingly.

Herein, the expression "comprises" or its synonymous similar expressions "comprising", "containing" and "having" etc. are open-ended and do not exclude additional unlisted elements, steps or components.

Herein, the terms "first", "second", "third" and similar expressions are not used to limit the sequence and the number of components, unless otherwise specified.

In this article, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined, terms such as "installation", "connection", and "attachment" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral body; it can be It can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediary, and it can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meanings of the above terms herein according to specific situations.

It should be understood that the term "vehicle" mentioned herein includes fuel vehicles, hybrid vehicles, electric vehicles, hydrogen-powered vehicles, etc., and can be various types of vehicles, and is not limited by illustrations.

In the following, it is described that the vehicle-mounted receiving device (hereinafter simply referred to as the receiving device) is applied to the sub-dashboard, but it does not exclude that the receiving device can be applied to other suitable interior components. In addition, the accommodating device is described as being used for carrying contents such as cups, but it does not mean that it can only be used for carrying cup-shaped objects.

2A to 2D show two receiving devices CP applied to the console console, as an example, the two receiving devices are arranged in the lateral or width direction of the vehicle. Alternatively, two receiving devices may be arranged in the longitudinal or longitudinal direction of the vehicle. In addition, the number of accommodating devices is not limited, and one or more than two accommodating devices distributed along the transverse direction or the longitudinal direction may be arranged.

Figure 2A shows the initial state of the vehicle-mounted storage device CP. When the storage function is turned on, as shown in Figure 2B, the cup-shaped object is placed on the surface of the storage device in the direction of the arrow and pressed down until the cup-shaped object shown in Figure 2C The object reaches the bottom and the cover assembly locks in the bottom position. After releasing the downward force, the cup can be held stably in the receptacle as shown in Figure 2D.

When the storage function needs to be closed, as shown in Figure 3A, after the cup is removed, the switch provided on the storage device can be pressed, so that the cover assembly is unlocked and raised as shown in Figure 3B, until the surface of the cover assembly and the auxiliary The surface of the dashboard is flush, as shown in Figure 3C.

It has been realized that the lifting mechanism used to raise and lower the cover assembly has many parts and complex structure, not only the installation is cumbersome and the reliability is poor, but also the lifting mechanism takes up a lot of storage space, resulting in a larger overall volume of the storage device , It is not conducive to the rational layout and application of the interior space of the vehicle. In addition, on the premise of ensuring functionality, consumers are more inclined to aesthetically pleasing interior components, which makes the instrument panel and/or sub-dashboard more diverse in shape, so that the styling surface will have more curves. For example, for the liftable storage device on the sub-dashboard, in order to adapt to the diversified shapes of the sub-dashboard, the outer surface of the storage device needs to be adapted to the molding surface, and because the outer surface that is adapted to the molding surface is directly used as a bearing For the support surface, the greater the curvature of the modeling surface and the greater the inclination angle, the more unstable the contents will be after being placed in the container. For example, when placing a cup, the risk of cup tilting and liquid spilling may easily occur. Therefore, in some cases, the current liftable receiving device with a planar support surface cannot well meet the shape requirements and avoid risks such as liquid spilling.

According to the concept of the present disclosure, a container device with fewer components and a compact structure is provided, so as to stably and reliably implement the movement of the cover assembly and hold the container firmly. In some optional forms, the present disclosure also provides an accommodating device capable of adapting to the curvature or inclination of the appearance surface, by arranging the cover assembly of the accommodating device to include a bottom plate and a pivotable outer cover. When the accommodating function is put into the content, the outer cover of the cover body assembly used as a supporting surface is adjusted to be roughly horizontal, and the outer cover automatically returns to be flush with the slope of the modeling surface when the accommodating function is closed. For example, in the initial state of the vehicle-mounted storage device CP shown in FIG. 2A , the surface of the cover assembly of the storage device is flush with the molding surface of the sub-dashboard, that is, there is a certain slope relative to the horizontal plane, so as to cover the storage device. The interior of the device plays an aesthetic role. When the storage function is turned on, as the content is pressed down, the outer cover of the cover assembly pivots to a horizontal position during the downward movement to ensure that the content is stabilized in the state shown in Figure 2D securely without the risk of spilling liquids. Conversely, when the accommodating function is closed, the outer cover of the cover assembly pivots simultaneously during the ascent process. When reaching the top position as shown in FIG. Adaptive exterior styling surfaces.

The container device CP-1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to FIG. 4A to FIG. 14C , so as to better understand the movement process of the lifting mechanism and the cover assembly of the present disclosure.

Referring first to FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B , the containment device CP-1 includes a casing to define a containment space, and in some embodiments, the casing is an integral part including a bottom. In some embodiments, as shown in the figures, the housing may be assembled from an outer shell 20 and a base 60, wherein the outer shell 20 is adapted to be mounted to an interior component of the vehicle, such as an instrument panel, by fasteners (such as screws), and the base 60 is connected to the base 60. The housings 20 are connected to define an accommodation space. Alternatively, the base 60 and the housing 20 can be attached to each other by clamping. For example, as shown in FIG. The accommodating device further includes a cover assembly 10 adapted to the accommodating space, and the cover assembly 10 is configured to reciprocate relative to the casing along a first direction between a first position covering the accommodating space and a second position exposing the accommodating space. In the illustrated embodiment, the first direction is a vertical direction, shown as D1 in FIG. 4B . It should be understood that the casing 20 in the receiving device shown in the example is a cylindrical structure with a substantially square cross section, so that the cover assembly 10 also has an overall structure with a substantially square cross section. However, depending on the application environment, other suitable Cross-sectional shapes are possible, such as circles or other polygons.

5 to 6B show the composition of the cover assembly 10 in one embodiment. In this embodiment, the cover assembly 10 includes a driving member, and the driving member includes a driving shaft and an energy storage member arranged on the driving shaft, so that the cover assembly 10 reciprocates between the first position and the second position. Depending on different needs, the driving member can be configured to include a drive shaft and a torsion spring, or a motor, or a worm gear, or a drive gear, and other suitable components.

Specifically, in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 to 6B , the driving member includes a driving shaft 16 arranged perpendicular to the first direction D1 and configured to respond to an external force applied to the cover assembly 10 and rotate to drive the cover assembly 10 to move from the first position to the second position. As an option, the driving member also includes a spur gear 14 arranged on the drive shaft 16. As shown in FIG. Moving up and down. Each guide groove 201 corresponds to each spur gear 14 , and a rack 202 is provided to engage with the spur gear 14 , so that the driving member moves linearly along the first direction and moves more smoothly. For smooth movement during lifting, two spur gears 14 connected by a drive shaft 16 may be included. Optionally, the spur gear 14 is interference-fitted with the drive shaft 16 through a spline to achieve a rigid connection. As can be seen from FIG. 5 , the cover assembly 10 may include an outer cover 11 and a bottom plate 19, an inner cover 13 is provided between the outer cover 11 and the bottom plate 19 to accommodate the drive assembly, and two spur gears 14 connected by the driving shaft 16 pass through The hole 134 provided on the inner cover 13 is limited.

Advantageously, the energy storage member is configured to drive the drive shaft 16 in rotation so as to drive the cover assembly 10 from the second position to the first position. As shown in Figure 5, the energy storage member is, for example, a torsion spring 15 sleeved on the drive shaft 16, one end of which is a fixed end for fixing through the corresponding hole 132 (Figure 6B) on the inner cover 13, and the other end can be Through the corresponding hole (not shown) on the drive shaft 16 , it can rotate synchronously with the drive shaft 16 to store or release energy. That is, when the cover assembly 10 is moved from the first position to the second position by the driving member, the torsion spring 15 stores energy along with the rotation of the driving shaft 16, and correspondingly drives the driving member to reversely rotate in the energy-releasing state. , and then drive the cover assembly 10 to move from the second position to the first position. Compared with the existing design, the way in which the energy storage part is arranged on the drive shaft greatly reduces the functional components required by the drive assembly, and the structure is simple, easy to manufacture and assemble, and has high transmission efficiency, reliable function and space saving. In addition, the shaft diameter of the drive shaft can be flexibly adjusted according to the working conditions, which not only meets the performance requirements of the drive components in different occasions, but also reduces the cost.

In some embodiments, the cover assembly further includes a driven shaft configured to rotate in response to rotation of the drive shaft. In the illustrated preferred embodiment, the cover assembly includes a driven shaft 18 arranged perpendicularly to the first direction and may be angularly staggered with the driving shaft 16 , such as substantially at right angles as shown in FIG. 6B . In this way, spur gears 14 are advantageously provided at both ends of the driven shaft 18 to rotate synchronously with the spur gears 14 on the drive shaft 16, so as to ensure the synchronization of the lifting of the cover assembly 10, and to make the force applied during the lifting process Move more evenly and smoothly. Moreover, the driving shaft 16 and the driven shaft 18 can be respectively assembled on the supporting ribs 133 provided on the inner cover 13 . Advantageously, the cover assembly 10 also includes a damping member, and the driven member also includes a spur gear 181 arranged on the driven shaft 18. The damping member 17 is snapped into the opening 135 on the inner cover 13, and is configured in the form of a gear to Engaging with the spur gear 181 on the driven shaft 18, it is used to hinder the rotation of the driven shaft 18 during the lifting process, so as to slow down the movement of the cover assembly from the second position to the first position, thereby reducing the number of components during the lifting process. Generated vibrations improve comfort. In this way, the damping member 17 can adopt a conventional damping structure without a specific configuration, which also provides an advantage of cost reduction to a certain extent.

As noted above, in some alternative forms, the receiving device of the present disclosure can adapt to the curvature or slope of the exterior surface, which can be achieved by configuring the outer cover of the cover assembly to pivot relative to the base plate. That is, as shown in FIG. 5 , when the cover assembly 10 reciprocates along the first direction, the outer cover 11 can pivot relative to the bottom plate 19 .

In some embodiments, the outer cover 11 is configured such that the cover assembly 10 pivots relative to the bottom plate 19 around a pivot extending along a second direction during the reciprocating movement of the cover assembly 10 along the first direction D1, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction D1. One direction D1. In FIG. 4B, the second direction is the horizontal direction and is shown as D2. Advantageously, in the first position, the outer cover 11 is pivoted to be flush with the molding surface of the interior part, and in the second position, the bottom plate 70 is locked to the base 60, and the outer cover 11 is pivoted to be substantially horizontal as a bearing. The supporting surface supports the content stably. It should be understood that, when the receiving device is applied to other vehicle interior components, the first direction in which the cover assembly reciprocates can also be the horizontal direction, and the second direction in which the pivot of the outer cover 11 extends is perpendicular to the first direction. any direction in the vertical plane.

It should be understood that, for the cover assembly, the pivoting of the outer cover relative to the bottom plate can be realized in various ways. For example, in some embodiments, the driver is configured to drive the outer cover to pivot in response to the reciprocating movement of the cover assembly, that is, the outer cover is pivoted as the driver drives the cover assembly to reciprocate. In some embodiments, the pivoting of the outer cover is independent of the process of driving the cover assembly to reciprocate. In other words, the driving member can still be used to drive the cover assembly to move back and forth, but the pivoting of the outer cover is not necessarily realized by the driving member. For example, when the contents are put in and the outer cover is under pressure, the outer cover can be urged to pivot to a substantially horizontal position to initially position and support the contents. Conversely, when the cover assembly tends to move to the first position, the outer cover can pivot relative to the base plate to a state flush with the molding surface of the interior component without being driven by the driving member.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 to 6B , the cover assembly 10 is exemplarily configured such that when the cover assembly 10 moves from the first position to the second position, the external force used to urge the driver to drive the cover assembly to move can make the outer cover 11 Pivot relative to base plate 19 . Conversely, when the cover assembly moves from the second position to the first position, the outer cover 11 can pivot relative to the bottom plate 19 independently of the driving member.

In some embodiments, the outer cover 11 and the bottom plate 19 can be pivotally connected. For example, in the manner shown in FIG. to match the pivot hole 111. Optionally, the pivot 131 and the pivot hole 111 are configured in an arc shape, so as to be suitable for the outer cover 11 to pivot around the pivot 131 . The inner cover 13 is further fixedly connected with the bottom plate 19 . For example, the side wall of the inner cover 13 may be provided with a plurality of engaging slots 136 , and the outer wall of the bottom plate 19 is correspondingly provided with a plurality of triangular ribs 191 for engaging the engaging slots 136 . Optionally, the outer wall of the bottom plate 19 can also be provided with a plurality of limiting blocks 192, and the limiting blocks 192 can abut against the bottom wall of the inner cover 13, as shown in FIG. 6A. Thereby, the outer cover 11, the inner cover 13, and the bottom plate 19 can be firmly connected to each other.

It can be seen from FIG. 5 and FIG. 6A that the cover assembly 10 further includes a reset member arranged between the outer cover 11 and the bottom plate 19, such as a compression spring 12, one end of which is sleeved on the rib 112 provided in the outer cover 11, The other end abuts against the spring groove 137 provided on the inner cover 13, so that when the outer cover 11 is pressed and pivots downward, the compression spring 12 stores energy, and when the cover assembly is unlocked, the compression spring 12 releases energy immediately The outer cover 11 can be pivoted upward along the pivot 131 to reset. During the rising process, the compression spring 12 can also reduce the vibration between the outer cover 11 and the inner cover 13 to a certain extent.

Further referring to FIG. 4B in combination with FIGS. 7 to 9B , the receiving device further includes a switch assembly 50 . The switch assembly 50 is configured to switch between a locked state and an unlocked state, wherein when the cover assembly 10 moves to the second position, the switch assembly 50 is in the locked state and remains locked with the cover assembly 10, and when the switch assembly 50 is switched to In the unlocked state, the cover assembly 10 and the switch assembly 50 are unlocked and disengaged.

In the illustrated embodiment, the switch assembly 50 includes a lock bar 54 arranged along the length direction of the housing 20 , one end of the lock bar 54 is provided with a latch 52 matched with the base 60 , and the other end is provided with a switch 53 such as a button. Wherein, the cover assembly 10 is provided with a locking member for cooperating with the switch assembly 50 to keep locked in the second position. Optionally, the locking member can be arranged on the bottom plate 19, or as shown in this embodiment, for example, the locking member 113 in the form of a hook is arranged on the outer cover 11 and can pass through the inner cover 13. The through hole 138 extends through the bottom plate 19 . To this end, the bottom plate 19 is provided with a slot 193 extending from the side wall to the bottom wall for the pivotal movement of the locking member 113 . Thus, in the locked state, the locking member 113 can engage with the locking hole 521 provided on the locking buckle 52 , so as to realize locking of the cover assembly 10 .

The switch assembly is advantageously configured such that the switch 53 and the lock catch 52 pivot in opposite directions, so that the pressing operation applied to the switch 53 causes the locking member 113 to disengage from the locking hole 521 to be in an unlocked state. As an option, the switch 53 is fixedly clamped on the lock bar 54, and the lock bar 54 is connected to the housing 20 through the pivot 541. slot 601, and can slide along the guide slot 601. In some embodiments, the switch assembly 50 further includes an elastic reset member, such as a spring 51 , so that the switch assembly 50 can switch between a locked state and an unlocked state. The spring 51 can be installed on the installation rib 602 of the base 60 and abuts against the latch 52 .

When the cover assembly 10 is pressed down to a certain height, the locking member 113 will fit the edge of the locking hole 521 of the lock 52, and push the lock 52 to slide along the guide groove 601, and compress the spring 51 at the same time, when the lock When the stopper 113 passes through the locking hole 521, the spring 51 releases the elastic potential energy, and drives the lock catch 52 to move in the opposite direction and is blocked by the lock catch 113. At this time, the lock member 113 is locked with the lock catch 52, and the switch assembly 50 is in a locked state to enable the storage function of the storage device. When the accommodating function needs to be closed and the switch 53 of the switch assembly 50 is pressed, the switch 53 and the lock bar 54 rotate along the pivot 541, and the lower end of the lock bar 54 pushes the lock catch 52 to slide along the guide groove 601, so that the locking member 113 and the lock The hole 521 is disengaged, and the spring 51 is pressed to store energy at the same time. When the switch 53 is released, the spring 51 releases the elastic potential energy, pushes the lock catch 52 to slide in the reverse direction along the guide groove 601, and the lock catch 52 pushes the lock bar 54 to reversely rotate along the pivot 541, and the limit edge 522 on the lock catch 52 and the base The limit block 603 on the 60 interferes to limit the position of the latch 52, and at this time the switch assembly 50 returns to the initial position. Moreover, during this process, due to the energy release of the compression spring 12, the outer cover 11 is driven to rotate around the pivot, and as the cover assembly 10 rises to the first position, the inclination between the surface of the outer cover 11 and the molding surface of the interior parts Return to flush.

Further referring to FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B in conjunction with FIG. 10A to FIG. 11 , the receiving device further includes a plurality of clamping assemblies 40 arranged at intervals along the periphery of the housing 20 , three of which are exemplarily shown in the figure. The housing 20 is provided with clamping holes corresponding to each clamping component. In the illustrated embodiment, the clamping assembly 40 includes a bracket 42 arranged along the length direction of the housing 20 , one end of the bracket 42 is provided with a support 43 matching with the base 60 , and the other end is provided with a claw 41 . Advantageously, the clamping assembly 40 is configured such that the pressing operation applied by the content in the accommodating space to the support member 43 to rotate to the outside of the housing 20 causes the claw 41 to extend into the clamping hole to clamp the content. In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 40 further includes an elastic member 44, so that the clamping assembly can switch between a clamping state for clamping the content and a release state for releasing the content.

Specifically, the claw 41 and the bracket 42 are connected to each other by passing the first shaft 421 of the bracket 42 through the first hole 411 of the claw 41 , and the bracket 42 is connected to the base 60 through the second shaft 422 . The supporting member 43 is connected with the casing 20 through the third rotating shaft 431 and can rotate relative to the casing 20 . The elastic member 44 is sleeved on the second rotating shaft 422 through a collar 441 , and one end 442 is engaged in the accommodating groove 412 at the upper end of the claw 41 , and the other end 443 is engaged in the accommodating groove 432 at the lower end of the supporting member 43 .

When the accommodating function of the accommodating device is closed, the clamping assembly is in a released state or a free state, the claw 41 is partly located outside the housing, and the support member 43 is partly located inside the housing. When the content presses the cover assembly 10 and moves down, the content moves to contact and push the part of the support member 43 located inside the housing, so that the elastic member 44 rotates along the second rotating shaft 422, thereby driving the claw 41 to rotate along the second rotating shaft 422 and stretch out.

Specifically, the drive shaft 160 includes a pair of spur gears 140 configured to rotate around it, and the two spur gears 140 are limited by holes 1304 provided on the inner cover 130 . The energy storage member is a torsion spring 150 sheathed on the drive shaft 160 , one end of which is a fixed end for fixing through the corresponding hole 1302 on the inner cover 130 , and the other end can pass through the corresponding hole on the drive shaft 160 . The cover assembly also includes a driven shaft 180 and a spur gear 1801 arranged on the driven shaft 180. The driven shaft 180 can be arranged approximately at right angles to the driving shaft 160, and respectively assembled on the support ribs 1303 provided on the inner cover 130 . The damping element 170 is snapped into the opening 1305 of the inner cover 130 and configured as a gear to mesh with the spur gear 1801 on the driven shaft 180 . Two ends of the driven shaft 180 are provided with spur gears 140 to rotate synchronously with the spur gears 140 on the driving shaft 160 .

In this embodiment, the cover assembly 100 is configured such that the outer cover 110 is fixed rather than pivoted relative to the bottom plate 190 , which is especially suitable for applications with a more compact overall size that do not need to meet the shape of the interior components. And it can help to change the shape of the outer supporting surface of the cover body assembly according to actual needs. Optionally, the outer cover 110 and the inner cover 130 can be fixed by an easily detachable structure such as snap hooks, so that when the outer cover needs to be replaced according to different projects, only the outer cover 110 needs to be disassembled and replaced. There is no need to change other parts such as the inner cover, thereby expanding the use range of the containing device and prolonging the service life. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 18 , buckles 1301 may be provided on the inner cover 130 , which cooperate with corresponding locking protrusions 1101 provided on the outer cover 110 , as shown in FIG. 19 . Further, the inner cover 130 is fixedly connected with the bottom plate 190 .

Optionally, the bottom edge of the bottom plate 190 facing the inner cover 130 is configured as a limiting portion 192 , and the limiting portion 192 can abut against the bottom wall of the inner cover 130 . Thereby, the outer cover 110, the inner cover 130, and the bottom plate 190 may be firmly connected to each other.

As mentioned above, in this embodiment, substantially the same switch assembly and clip assembly as those in the above embodiment can be used to simplify the structural design of the receiving device. Fig. 20A and Fig. 20B respectively show schematic diagrams of cooperation of the switch assembly 50 shown in Fig. 7 and the base 600 in Fig. 17B from different angles. FIG. 21 shows a schematic diagram of assembling the clamping assembly 40 of FIGS. 10A to 10B on the receiving device of FIG. 17A . Although the shell 200 is slightly different from the base 600, the switch 53 can still be fixedly engaged with the lock bar 54, the lock bar 54 is connected to the shell 200 through the pivot 541, the lower end of the lock bar 54 abuts against the lock catch 52, and the lock catch 52 can be Assembled in the guide groove 6001 on the base 600, and can slide along the guide groove 6001. The spring 51 can be installed on the installation rib 6002 of the base 600 and abut against the latch 52 . The locking member 1103 of the cover assembly 100 is disposed on the outer cover 110 and can pass through the slot 1308 on the inner cover 130 and extend through the opening 1903 on the bottom plate 190 . In an optional embodiment, the locking member may be disposed on the bottom plate 190 to simplify the structure.

When the cover assembly 100 is pressed down and makes the locking member 1103 fit the edge of the locking hole 521 of the lock 52, the further downward movement of the cover assembly 100 will push the lock 52 to slide along the guide groove 6001, and at the same time compress Spring 51, until the locking member 1103 passes through the locking hole 521, the spring 51 releases the elastic potential energy, thereby driving the locking catch 52 to move in the opposite direction, so that the locking member 1103 and the locking catch 52 are locked, and the switch assembly 50 is in a locked state. When unlocking, press the switch 53 of the switch assembly 50, the switch 53 and the lock lever 54 rotate along the pivot 541, and the lower end of the lock lever 54 pushes the lock catch 52 to slide along the guide groove 6001, so that the locking member 1103 is disengaged from the locking hole 521 , while the spring 51 is pressed to store energy. When the switch 53 is released, the spring 51 releases the elastic potential energy, and pushes the lock catch 52 to slide in the reverse direction along the guide groove 6001. The lock catch 52 pushes the lock bar 54 to reversely rotate along the pivot 541. The limit block 6003 on the 600 interferes to limit the position of the latch 52, so that the switch assembly 50 returns to the initial position. During this period, the torsion spring 150 on the driving shaft 160 in the cover assembly releases the elastic potential energy, pushing the cover assembly to move upward along the rack to the first position.

Similarly, FIG. 22 shows a guide groove 2001 and a rack 2002 provided on the housing for guiding the movement of the spur gear 140 . The plurality of shielding elements 300 shown in FIG. 17A and FIG. 17B are adapted to the position of each guide groove 2001 respectively, and can be connected with the housing through a snap-fit structure, as shown in FIG. 23 , to shield light and protect the rack and pinion.
