Description

The The invention relates to a receptacle for a motor vehicle, as it arranged for example in a motor vehicle door lining is to, for example, city maps, To record music cassettes and the like.

A receiving compartment for a motor vehicle is essentially cuboid and accessible from above via an insertion opening in order to be able to insert objects into a receiving volume of the receiving compartment. The receiving volume is limited by a front wall, a rear wall, a first side wall, a second side wall and a bottom. For example WO 95/27634 It is also known to pivot out the receiving compartment from the motor vehicle door lining, for example, to insert an umbrella in the receiving volume of the receiving compartment and then to pivot the receiving compartment in the vehicle door interior trim back.

adversely in such a receptacle is that bulky objects, the not completely fit into the receptacle, the receptacle in the unfolded state hold. This is especially the case with beverage bottles, which only edgewise can be plugged into the receptacle, otherwise the danger is that the beverage bottle can expire. In the unfolded state, however, hinders the receptacle The legroom of the driver, which reduces ride comfort is. Furthermore, the driver can, for example, when coupling with the Bump your leg against the unfolded storage compartment and out of pain or surprise perform knee-jerk violent steering movements, which can lead to traffic accidents.

It The object of the invention to provide a receptacle, in the risk of a traffic accident is low and increased comfort the stowage of a bulky object allows.

The solution The object is achieved according to the invention by the features of the claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

The Storage compartment according to the invention for a Motor vehicle is in particular for a motor vehicle door interior trim suitable and has a receiving volume that of a front wall, a Rear wall, a first side wall, a floor and a second Sidewall is limited. Here, the front wall with the rear wall over the first side wall, the bottom and the second side wall connected, the front wall, the first side wall, the rear wall and the second side wall an insertion limit to over the insertion opening objects to insert into the recording volume. According to the invention the front wall at least one slot starting at the insertion opening on.

If a bulky object in the receiving volume of the receiving compartment is to be inserted, it is possible due to the slot adjoining the slot parts of the front wall in the vehicle interior to bend in or with the help of the object in the interior of the vehicle to press causing the insertion and the recording volume increases. Especially preferred two substantially parallel slits are provided and / or a further substantially perpendicular to the slot subsequent Slit, whereby a part of the front wall bent out or folded out can be. In particular, a broken beverage bottle be plugged into the receptacle without a pivoting movement of the To provide storage compartments because the beverage bottle predominantly vertically, d. H. upright between the front wall and the vehicle door interior trim can be trapped in the receiving volume. It is not required a complicated and expensive swivel mechanism or to provide the same to place objects in the receptacle to be able to the above the edge of the insertion opening stand out clearly. This simple measure is a hindrance of the driver, if that present, reduced to a minimum, allowing for increased comfort the risk of a traffic accident is kept low.

Preferably, the slot extends from the insertion opening to the bottom, which increases the extent to which the receiving volume can increase. In particular, the front wall is divided by the slot into a first front wall part and a second front wall part. In this case, for example, the first front wall part may be essentially immovable, so that it is possible to set by the division of the front wall, which region of the front wall can be moved into the interior of the passenger compartment to what extent. So that the deflectable part of the front wall can not be accidentally broken off, a movable, in particular articulated connection can be particularly preferably provided at the particularly stressed points. In particular, the front wall and the floor and / or the front wall and the first side wall and / or the front wall and the second side wall are movably connected to each other. In a preferred embodiment, the front wall and the bottom and / or the front wall and the first side wall and / or the front wall and the second side wall are connected to each other via a material thinning, so that in Area of material thinning in particular results in a film hinge. Instead of increasing the mobility of at least part of the front wall by means of an expensive joint, the same effect is achieved by the material thinning, which even leads to lower material costs due to the material saved.

Preferably is the at least one slot through a flexible material, for example a plastic film sealed, which prevents that small objects can fall out through the slot.

Especially Preferably, the front wall or in particular the movable part the front wall an end stop on to the maximum deflection to limit the front wall. For example, the end stop with the moving part of Connected to the front wall and to the immovable part of the front wall strike or vice versa. Preferably, the end stop strikes the rear wall at. This facilitates the stable assembly and leads to essential Parts of the end stop hidden behind the motor vehicle door interior panel are. Particularly preferably, the end stop is spring-loaded, so that normally, if no bulky items in the receiving volume of the storage compartment to be inserted, the moving part the front wall is retracted to its original position and not a flat one disturbing outstanding front wall guaranteed is.

The Invention further relates to an interior trim for a motor vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle door lining, which has a receptacle which is designed as described above and can be further educated. In particular, the receiving compartment one piece integrated into the interior trim.

following the invention will be with reference to the accompanying drawings based on a preferred embodiment explained in more detail. It demonstrate:

1 a schematic perspective view of a motor vehicle door interior trim according to the invention,

2 a schematic sectional view of a receiving compartment according to the invention of the motor vehicle door lining 1 in a first position and

3 a schematic sectional view of a receiving compartment according to the invention of the motor vehicle door lining 1 in a second position.

The motor vehicle door interior trim according to the invention 10 ( 1 ) has a receiving compartment 12 on, this is a front wall 14 , a back wall 16 , a first sidewall 18 , a second side wall 20 and a floor 22 which has a receiving volume 24 limit. The recording volume 24 is over an insertion opening 26 accessible, the edge of which through the front wall 14 , the first side wall 18 , the back wall 16 and the second side wall 20 is formed.

The front wall 14 has one of the insertion 26 to the ground 22 running slot 28 on, the front wall 14 in a immovable first front wall part 30 and one in the direction of an arrow 32 movable second front wall part 34 Splits. If a bulky item, such as a broken bottle in the receiving volume 24 the receiving bag 12 can be plugged, the front wall 14 in the region of the second front wall part 34 give into the passenger compartment, so that the water bottle upright in the vehicle door interior panel 10 can be trapped.

The front wall 14 is in the range of the movable second front wall part 34 via a connecting element 36 with an end stop 38 connected, due to a compression spring 40 is spring-loaded ( 2 ). The compression spring 40 is in the illustrated embodiment between the end stop 38 and the back wall 16 arranged so that the front wall 14 automatically from an open position ( 3 ) into a starting position ( 2 ) is pulled when no bulky items in the receiving compartment 12 are inserted.

So that the movable front wall part 34 can not break off unintentionally, is between the front wall 14 , in particular in the area of the movable front wall part 34 a material thinning 42 provided to form a film hinge. Furthermore, in the illustrated embodiment, the movable front wall part 34 a stop 44 on, in the starting position on the immovable front wall part 30 is applied, so that the compression spring 40 the movable front wall part 34 not too far on the back wall 16 can draw.
