, Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of cup holders and more particularly the present disclosure relates to a leaf-type cup holder for vehicle interior which is adapted to come out of a body of the vehicle for accommodating objects including bottles, cup, glass, cans, and the likes when required, and securely goes within the body of the vehicle when not in use.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Nowadays, most of the vehicles are provided with cup holders for facilitating users or passengers of the vehicles to securely position and hold one or more objects including bottles, cups, glass, cans, and other beverage containers, within the vehicle. This assists the users or passengers to keep their objects handy with them while traveling or driving. Vehicles can be provided with several cup holders proximate to front seats, and back seats depending upon the type and class of the vehicle. Also, the cup holders can be of different sizes based on various sizes of objects required to be positioned and held within the vehicles.
[0004] Generally, vehicles are provided with a cavity in the interior body of the vehicles, which can be shaped to accommodate the objects therewithin. Further, some vehicles are provided with a cup holder positioned rigidly on an upper surface of the interior body of the vehicle to accommodate the objects. These cup holders provide the users with an option to hold and position the objects within the vehicle while traveling. However, these cup holders remain open and accessible all the time irrespective of if they are currently in use or not. As a result, this makes the interior of the vehicle aesthetically unpleasing and remains exposed to dust all the time. Dust can get collected at bottom of the cup holders that are difficult to remove and can be very unpleasing and annoying for the users of the vehicle.
[0005] Various movable type of cup holders is also available in the art which remains closed when not in use, and opens to allow the users to position the objects within these cup holders. These movable type cup holders are provided with a movable section which usually stays in line with the interior body of the vehicle when the cup holder is not in use and moves within the interior body of the vehicle so that a cavity is created in the body to allow accommodation of the objects such as a cup, bottle or can within it.
[0006] However, these movable type of cup holders has a major drawback which exposes the inner components of the cup holder as well as the inner components of the vehicle to outside environment and dust, through the cavity created in these cup holders, when the movable section is moved within the interior body of the vehicle but no object is positioned within the created cavity. This increases the chances of degradation and failure of the cup holder as well as the inner components of the vehicle. In the worst case, any spillage of liquid in the cavity created in these movable type cup holders become really difficult to clean, and can seriously damage the components of the vehicle as well the inner components of the vehicles. In addition, these cup holders are very complex and occupy a larger area of the interior body of the vehicle to configure them within the vehicle.
[0007] There is, therefore, a need to overcome the above drawback and provide a simple and improved cup holder system for a vehicle which comes out of an interior body of the vehicle for accommodating objects when required, and remains within the interior body when not in use, thereby restricting access to, and exposure of dust, liquid and outside environment, on inner components of the cup holder as well as the inner components of the vehicle through the cup holder.

OBJECTS OF THE PRESENT DISCLOSURE
[0008] Some of the objects of the present disclosure, which at least one embodiment herein satisfies are as listed herein below.

[0041] In an embodiment, the one or more biasing member can be a compression spring with a first end of the one or more biasing member being coupled to the console and a second end of the one or more biasing member being coupled to the platform. A compression force of the one or more biasing member can facilitate movement of the platform from the second position to the first position when the one or more arm is disengaged from the holder.
[0042] As illustrated in FIG. 1A and 2B, in an aspect, the proposed cup holder 100 (also referred to as cup holder 100 or leaf-type cup holder, herein) can include a console 102 (also referred to as housing 102, herein) defining a body having a cavity therewithin. The console 102 can be an interior trim part configured in or projecting on an interior body of the vehicle. The console102 can be arranged in between the front row seats or rear row seats or on a door panel or on a dashboard, but not limited to the likes. The cup holder 100 can include a platform 104 operatively configured within the cavity of the console 102, and operable to move between a first position and a second position within the console 102. The first position can be at a first pre-defined level below the second position. The cup holder 100 can include a holder 106 adapted to receive and accommodate a cup. The holder 106 can be configured on the platform 104 by one or more biasing members 114 (also referred to as biasing member 114, herein) such that movement of the platform 104 between the first position and the second position facilitates the movement of the holder 106. As illustrated in FIGs. 1A and 1B, when platform 104 is at the first position, the biasing members 114 remain in tension and the holder 106 stays within the console 102. Further, as illustrated in FIGs 2A and 2B, when platform 104 is at the second position, the biasing members 114 remain compressed and the holder 106 moves at least partially outside the console 102 to receive and accommodate the cup. The holder 106 can be configured with the platform 104 using but without limiting to one or more fixing elements.
[0043] It is to be appreciated by a person skilled in the art that various embodiments of the present invention have been elaborated in the context of a cup, however, the proposed cup holder 100 can accommodate and hold other objects without limiting to a bottle, glass, can, or like beverage containing vessel, and all such embodiments and implementations are well within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0044] In an embodiment, the cup holder 100 can include a push lock mechanism 108 operatively configured with the console 102, and any or combination of the platform 104 and the holder 106. The push lock mechanism 108 can be configured to restrict the movement of the platform 104 between the first position and the second position. Further, actuation of the push lock mechanism 108 by a user, allows the biasing members 114 to push the platform 104 to the second position so that the holder 106 moves at least partially outside the console 102 to receive and accommodate the cup or to move the platform 104 from the second position to the first position so that the holder 106 moves within the console 102.
[0045] As illustrated in FIG. 3, the push lock mechanism 108 can include a knob 302 having one or more arms 112 (also referred to as hooks 112, herein). The one or more arms 112 can be configured to engage and disengage with the holder 106. Pressing or actuation of the knob 302 can enable bending of the one or more arms 112 causing disengagement of the one or more arms 112 from the holder 106, and can facilitate the movement of the platform 104 between the first position to the second position. In an implementation, when the holder 106 is at the first position, pressing of the knob 302 can enable bending of the one or more arms 112 causing disengagement of the one or more arms 112 from the holder 106, and the biasing members 114 can further enable movement of the platform 104 the second position. The pressing can be done but without limiting to at the centre, and side of the knob 302. In an exemplary embodiment, the push lock mechanism 108 can be configured on top of console 102 such that the knob 302 remains accessible to users for actuation.
[0046] In an embodiment, the holder 106 can include multiple slots 116 at predefined positions on the holder 106, which can be adapted to be engaged with the one or more arms 112 to lock the holder 106 at a position between the first position and the second position. In an exemplary embodiment, slots 116 can be positioned at the bottom and top level of the holder 106, so that the holder 106 can be locked when at the first position as well as when at the second position.
[0047] In an embodiment, the holder 106 can be configured with rubber pad 110 to facilitate accommodation of the cup of various/predefined sizes.
[0048] In a first embodiment, the biasing member 114 can be a tensile spring with a first end of the tensile spring 114 being coupled to the console 102 and a second end of the tensile spring 114 being coupled with the platform 104. A tensile force of the tensile spring 114 can facilitate the movement of the platform 104 from the first position to the second position when the one or more arms 112 are disengaged from the holder 106, upon pressing of the knob 302.
[0049] In an implementation, when holder 106 is within console 102, the actuation or pressing of the knob 302 of the push lock mechanism 108 disengages the bendable one or more arms 112 from the slots 116 present at bottom level of the holder 106, and the tensile force of the tensile spring 114 (biasing member) can facilitate the platform 104 to move to the second position so that the holder 106 moves beyond the top surface of console 102 or at last partially outside the console 102. This can facilitate the holder 106 in achieving a minimum required height to accommodate the cup. Once platform 104 reaches the second position, the one or more arms 112 of the knob 302 again engages with one of the slots 116 at top level of the holder 106 as illustrated in FIG. 2B, thereby locking the holder 106 at the desired level outside the console 102 and allowing the user to accommodate and position the cup within the holder 106.
[0050] In another implementation, the bendable arms 112 of the push lock mechanism 108 can facilitate the holder 106 to be pressed vertically downward within the console 102, against the tensile force of the tensile spring 114, when the holder 106 is not in use. When the holder 106 is outside the console 102, pressing of the holder 106 in the vertically downward position can facilitate the bendable one or more arms 112 to disengage from slots at the top level of the holder 106, allowing movement of the platform 104 to the first position, where the one or more arms 112 again re-engages with at least one of the slots 116 at the bottom level of the holder 106 to lock the holder 106 within the console 102 as illustrated in FIG. 1B. The locking of the holder 106 within the console 102 facilitates in restricting access to, and exposure of dust, liquid and outside environment on inner components of the cup holder as well as the inner components of the vehicle through the cup holder 100.
[0051] In a second embodiment, the biasing member 114 can be a compression spring with a first end of the compression spring 114 coupled to the console 102 and a second end of the compression spring 114 coupled to the platform 104. When the platform 104 is at the first position, the compression spring 114 can remain compressed and the holder 106 stays within the console 102. In an implementation, the holder 106 can be pulled to the second position against the compressive force of the compression spring 114, using projections 120 or extensions 120 present on a rim (top) of the holder 106, where the one or more arms 112 of the knob 306 engages with at least one of the slots 116 present at top level of the holder 106, thereby locking the holder 106 in the second position. When the platform 104 is pulled to the second position against the compressing force of the compression spring 114, a compressive force is built in the compression spring 114, which facilitates the movement of the holder 106 back to the first position. In another implementation, when the holder 106 is at the second position, pressing or actuation of the knob 302 of the push lock mechanism 108 can enable disengagement of the bendable one or more arm 112 from the slot 116 present at top level of the holder 106. Further, the compressive force being built in the compression spring 114 can facilitate the holder 106 to move from the second position to the first position, where the one or more arms 112 of the knob 306 engages with at least one of the slots 116 present at bottom level of the holder 106, thereby locking the holder 106 in the first position.
[0052] As illustrated in FIGs. 4A and 4B, the console can be adapted to be efficiently configured with a body 408 of the vehicle. The console 102 can include a top surface that can include one or more first cut-out 402 (also referred to as first cut-out 402, herein) corresponding to a shape and a size of the holder 102 so that there is no gap between the first cut-out 402 and a surface of the holder 106, but the holder is free to move through the first cut-out 402 and come out through the first cut-out 402, when the platform 104 moves from the first position to the second position. When the holder 106 is within the console 102, the first cut-out 402 gets completely closed by the holder 106 thereby restricting exposure of dust, liquid and outside environment on inner components of the cup holder as well as the inner components of the vehicle through the first cut out 402 of the cup holder 100.
[0053] The console 102 can further include a second cut-out 404 corresponding to shape and size of the knob 302 of the push lock mechanism 108, being positioned concentrically inside the first cut-out 402 of the console 102 to configure the knob 302 on the top surface of the console 102. The console 102 can further include the fixing elements 406 to securely configure the push lock mechanism 108 with the console 102. An upper surface of the console 102 adjacent to the fixing elements 406 can allow the extensions 120 present on rim of the holder 106, to rest on top of it, and restrict further downward movement of the holder 106 within the console 102.
[0054] The present disclosure proposes a cup holder that can be configured in an interior body of a vehicle. The proposed cup holder can be an on-demand cup holder, which securely stays within the interior body of the vehicle when not in use, and can be accessed when required to accommodate a cup or other objects. This allows a limited exposure of the cup holder to the dust, liquid, and outside environment. In this way, the proposed cup holder can improve the aesthetics of the car interior and the cup holder and inner components of the vehicle can be saved from unnecessary contamination and degradation from the dust and the outside environment.
[0055] Moreover, in interpreting the specification, all terms should be interpreted in the broadest possible manner consistent with the context. In particular, the terms “comprises” and “comprising” should be interpreted as referring to elements, components, or steps in a non-exclusive manner, indicating that the referenced elements, components, or steps may be present, or utilized, or combined with other elements, components, or steps that are not expressly referenced. Where the specification claims refer to at least one of something selected from the group consisting of A, B, C ….and N, the text should be interpreted as requiring only one element from the group, not A plus N, or B plus N, etc.
