Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a holder for holding or placing a container or the like provided on a center panel portion or a center console portion of an automobile.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Various holders have been conventionally used to hold or place containers such as beverage cups and cans when eating and drinking in a limited space such as the interior of an automobile. As these holders, in order to effectively utilize the limited space, many holders that are formed into a shape that can be stored on the interior surface and that can be pulled out or expanded when used are often used.

As such a holder, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-110112 discloses a holder in which a plate-shaped drawer portion is provided with a holding portion for holding a can, a cup, or the like. However, in a holder as disclosed here,
The holding part has a fixed size. Therefore, when this holding portion is formed to have a size suitable for holding a normal-sized cup or the like, it is put in a large-sized cup such as L or XL sold at a coffee shop or a hamburger shop. It is difficult to stably hold or place the beverage. For this reason, in recent years, holders that can stably hold containers of various sizes have been developed.

For example, in the holder disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2000-272401, as shown in FIG. 1, each member 101 which constitutes a storage portion 100 for storing a container is a main body 10.
It is stored inside 2. Then, at the time of use, as shown in FIG. 2, each of these members 101 is expanded to the outside of the main body 102 to form a three-dimensional storage unit 100. According to such a holder, since the storage part 100 is formed by being developed outside the main body 102, the storage part 100 larger than the size of the main body 102 can be formed. Also,
Since the container 100 can hold the container three-dimensionally, it can properly hold containers of various sizes.

However, in such a holder, when the storage section 100 is stored in the main body 102, that is, when the closing operation is performed, the operation of closing the storage section 100 and the operation of storing the storage section 100 in the main body 102 are performed. Two or more operations are required, which makes the closing operation complicated. In addition, when the closing operation is not performed reliably, as shown in FIG. 3, the respective members 101 forming the storage unit 100 may not be stored in the correct position in the main body 102. In such a case, when the opening operation is performed again next time, the respective members 101 may interfere with the opening operation on the inner wall 103 of the main body 102, or may be deployed outside the main body 102 while being pressed against the inner wall of the main body 102, There were cases where the main body 102 and each member 101 were flawed.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and a holder portion capable of holding a large-sized container can be accommodated in a small space, and the opening / closing operation of the holder portion can be performed easily and satisfactorily. It is an object of the present invention to provide a holder that can be used for.

[0007]

A holder of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems comprises a box-shaped main body having an opening, a lid body pivotably supported by the main body to open and close the opening, and the lid.

And a holder that is respectively held by a use position that constitutes a holder part, and is swingable in conjunction with the movement of the auxiliary member on the main body, and the auxiliary member moves from the use position to the storage position. It is characterized in that it is provided with a restricting member that swings when moving to contact with the auxiliary member to prevent interference between the main body and the auxiliary member.

By providing the main body with the restricting member, even if the holder is not closed reliably, the restricting member is brought into contact with the auxiliary member so that the auxiliary member is properly held in the storage position. Interference between the main body and the auxiliary member is prevented. Therefore, when the opening operation is performed again next time, the auxiliary member prevents the opening operation of the holder and prevents the auxiliary member from being scratched due to the opening operation being performed while being pressed against the inner wall of the main body. It is possible to perform a good opening and closing operation.

Further, it is preferable that a locking mechanism for locking the auxiliary member and the lid body at least in the storage position is further provided, and the regulating member operates the locking mechanism by pressing the auxiliary member.

The regulating member is a substantially L-shaped arm member, and the lid or the auxiliary member presses one end of the arm member when the auxiliary member moves from the use position to the storage position.

[0011]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The holder of the present invention can be installed and used not only in the passenger compartment of an automobile but also in various places such as an airplane, a movie theater, and a baseball field.

The holder of the present invention comprises a box-shaped main body having an opening, a lid body pivotably supported by the main body to open and close the opening,
It comprises an auxiliary member pivotally supported on the lid body.

When the main body is installed in, for example, a passenger compartment, an interior member such as a center console box may be used, or the main body may be formed into a box shape and then embedded in these interior members. It can also be provided. In either case, it is preferable that the opening is arranged so as to face upward.

The shape of the lid body is not particularly limited as long as one side thereof serves as a lid for closing the opening of the main body, and the shape can be pivotally supported on the main body, but when the opening of the main body is closed. It is preferable that one side is formed so as to be exposed on the outer surface of the main body and the other side is housed inside the box of the main body. In addition, in the case where the lid body is installed in a vehicle compartment, it is more preferable to provide a locking means for locking the lid body and the body to the lid body and the body in order to prevent the opening operation of the lid body due to vibration.

The auxiliary member may have any shape as long as it can be pivotally supported by the lid body to form a holder portion which serves as a holder of the container and can be stored in the main body through the opening. Good.

The lid and the auxiliary member are both housed inside the box-shaped main body except when the holder is used, and protrude outside the main body through the opening of the main body when the holder is used. The lid body and the auxiliary member that are exposed to the outside of the main body form a holder portion when the auxiliary member is further opened with respect to the lid body. The auxiliary member is closed with respect to the lid body except when the holder is used, and the lid body and the auxiliary member are housed in the body through the opening of the body. Here, the operation of each member until the lid body and the auxiliary member come out of the main body to form the holder portion is referred to as an opening operation, and the operation until the holder portion is closed and housed inside the main body is referred to as a closing operation. To do.

It is desirable that the opening operation and the closing operation are each performed in two steps. In the opening operation, the opening operation of the lid and the auxiliary member from the opening of the main body is the first opening operation, and the opening operation of the auxiliary member with respect to the lid member is the second opening operation. In the closing operation, the operation of closing the auxiliary member with respect to the lid body is the first closing operation step, and the operation of housing the lid member and the auxiliary member inside the main body through the opening is the second closing operation step.

In the holder of the present invention, the lid is pivotally supported by the main body, and the auxiliary member is pivotally supported by the lid. For this reason, it is preferable that the lid member and the auxiliary member, and the auxiliary member and the lid member each include pivotal support means. As the pivot means used here, a general one can be used. For example, one member may be provided with a hole portion, the other member may be provided with a shaft portion, and each member may be swung by the pivotal support of the hole portion and the shaft portion. It is also possible to provide the groove portion and provide the other member with the shaft portion so that the shaft portion is pivotally supported so as to slide while swinging along the arc of the groove portion.

Since the auxiliary member is pivotally supported by the lid, it moves in conjunction with the swing of the lid with respect to the main body and also swings with respect to the lid.

In the opening operation, in the first step of the opening operation, the auxiliary member moves in conjunction with the swing of the lid. Then, in the second stage of the opening operation, it swings with respect to the lid body to open the lid body. At this time, the auxiliary member is held in an open state with respect to the lid, and the lid and the auxiliary member form a holder portion.
The use position of the auxiliary member refers to a position forming the holder portion.

In the closing operation, in the first stage of the closing operation, the auxiliary member swings with respect to the lid body to close the lid body. Then, in the second stage of the closing operation, the lid body moves in conjunction with the swing of the lid body and is housed inside the main body. The storage position of the auxiliary member refers to the position stored inside the main body.

Here, since the auxiliary member can be swung with respect to the lid, it can be swung even at the storage position. Therefore, if the user does not surely perform the first closing operation during the closing operation, the auxiliary member may not be held at a position where it does not interfere with the main body even if it is arranged at the storage position. In such a case, interference between the auxiliary member and the main body may interfere with the next opening operation, or scratches may occur due to the opening operation being performed while the auxiliary member is pressed against the inner wall of the main body.

In the holder of the present invention, since the main body is provided with the swingable regulating member, it is possible to prevent interference between the main body and the auxiliary member at the storage position. The regulating member swings in synchronism with the movement of the auxiliary member from the use position to the storage position in the second stage of the closing operation, and comes into contact with the auxiliary member to prevent the auxiliary member from swinging, so that the main body and the auxiliary member Prevent interference. As long as the restriction member can be rocked by the auxiliary member without hindering the opening operation and the closing operation of the holder, and can prevent the auxiliary member from rocking by coming into contact with the auxiliary member, its shape and The position provided is not particularly limited, and an arbitrary number can be provided depending on conditions such as the size of the holder.

The swinging of the regulating member can be performed by a known means. Similar to the swinging of the main body and the lid body or the lid body and the auxiliary member as described above, it is possible to provide the main body and the regulating member with pivotal support means and pivot the pivotal support means as a center. Alternatively, other means can be used. For example, the restricting member may be fixed to the main body by a spring, and the spring may swing. In this case, the swinging direction can be biased by a spring, so that it is more preferably used. When the swinging direction is biased by the spring, even if the regulating member swings and moves in conjunction with the movement of the auxiliary member due to the second stage of the closing operation, the regulating member is moved at the time when the next opening operation is performed. Is released, and it becomes possible to swing and move to the original position by the bias of the spring. This makes it possible to perform the opening operation and the closing operation more preferably.

The holder of the present invention may be provided with a lock mechanism for locking the auxiliary member and the lid at least at the storage position. The lock mechanism may lock the auxiliary member and the lid body only in the storage position, or may lock the auxiliary member and the lid body in the use position and keep the lock in the storage position. Further, the auxiliary member and the lid may be locked during the movement from the use position to the storage position, and the locking may be continued at the storage position. In any case, since the lock mechanism is operated by pressing the regulation member at the storage position, the auxiliary member and the lid are securely locked at the storage position even if the lock mechanism is not locked until the storage position. Therefore, the interference between the main body and the auxiliary member is prevented.

The pressing by the restricting member may be any as long as it operates the lock mechanism, but is simultaneously performed when the restricting member contacts the auxiliary member to prevent interference between the main body and the auxiliary member. It is preferable. As the lock mechanism, a known method such as a push lock method can be used.

The restricting member of the holder of the present invention may be a substantially L-shaped arm member. This substantially L-shaped arm member has the other end of the arm member when the cover member or the auxiliary member presses one end of the arm member when the auxiliary member moves from the use position to the storage position in the second stage of the closing operation. Swings to abut the auxiliary member. Here, since the other end of the arm member swings when one end of the arm member is pressed, the swinging means of the arm member in this case may be provided at other than the one end that is pressed and the other end that swings. It is suitable.

Further, in the holder of the present invention, an adjusting member for adjusting the opening degree of the auxiliary member with respect to the lid in order to adjust the size of the holder may be arranged between the lid and the main body. In this case, the opening degree can be increased when holding a large-sized container and the opening degree can be decreased when holding a small-sized container, so that various sizes of containers can be held more preferably.
The adjusting stage of the adjusting member may be a finite stage or an infinite stage.

Further, in the holder of the present invention, the lid is fixed to the main body when the auxiliary member is opened with respect to the lid, and when the auxiliary member is closed to the lid, the fixing of the lid to the main body is released. You may arrange a 2nd control member. In this case, when the auxiliary member is opened with respect to the lid body to form the holder portion, the lid body is fixed to the main body, and the lid body can be prevented from swinging during use. It is possible to reliably hold the container.

The structure, size and location of the adjusting member and the second regulating member can be selected from various ones depending on the structure and size of the holder in which they are placed. Further, the adjusting member and the second restricting member may be integrally arranged as an opening / closing structure together with the lock mechanism between the lid and the main body or the lock mechanism between the lid and the auxiliary member.

The lid 38 and the lid 38 are locked. Therefore, even if the first closing operation is not reliably performed, the auxiliary member 39 is prevented from swinging, and the auxiliary member 39 does not interfere with the lid 38 during the next opening operation.

Further, since the swing of the arm member 40 is urged by the arm spring 43 in the direction opposite to the direction in which the arm member 40 contacts the auxiliary member 39, the arm member 40 is opened in the next opening operation 1.
When the step is performed, it is released from the arm member holding hole provided in the auxiliary member 39 and returns to the original position.

According to the holders of the first and second embodiments, even if the closing operation is performed without surely performing the first closing operation, the auxiliary member comes into contact with the arm member so that the main body and the auxiliary member are contacted with each other. Since the interference of the holder is prevented, the opening / closing operation of the holder is favorably performed.

Further, since the operation of the arm member is performed in conjunction with the movement of the auxiliary member in the second stage of the closing operation, the closing operation can be performed easily without requiring a complicated operation.

Since the holder portion is formed in three dimensions, it is possible to satisfactorily hold both a large-sized container and a small-sized container.

Further, when the holder is used, the lid and the auxiliary member form a holder portion outside the main body, and the lid and the auxiliary member are housed inside the main body except when the holder is used. Despite being able to secure storage
It can be stored very compactly when not in use. Therefore, the appearance and design are improved, and the relatively simple structure enables low-cost production.
And productivity can be improved.
