特開2002−120630号公報JP 2002-120630 A

上記カップホルダにおける、導光体の出射部の表面に光拡散部を設けるようにした場合、飲料容器が導光体の出射部に擦れることによって、光拡散部が摩耗するおそれがある。そのため、比較的早い段階で光拡散部による照明光の均一化効果が失われてしまうことになる。   When the light diffusing part is provided on the surface of the light emitting part in the cup holder, the light diffusing part may be worn by rubbing the beverage container against the light emitting part. Therefore, the effect of making the illumination light uniform by the light diffusion portion is lost at a relatively early stage.

そこで、本発明は、上記した問題点を解決することを、主な目的としている。   Accordingly, the main object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems.

Hereinafter, the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
1 to 7 are for explaining this embodiment.

<構成>以下、この実施例の構成について説明する。   <Configuration> The configuration of this embodiment will be described below.

自動車などの車両には、車室内に、図1の斜視図、図2の縦断面図に示すような、カップホルダ1が設けられる。このカップホルダ1は、図3または図4の拡大図に示すように、底面2と側壁面3とを有して飲料容器4を収容保持可能な有底容器状のカップホルダ本体5を備えたものとされる。   A vehicle such as an automobile is provided with a cup holder 1 as shown in the perspective view of FIG. 1 and the longitudinal sectional view of FIG. As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 3 or FIG. 4, the cup holder 1 includes a bottomed container-shaped cup holder body 5 that has a bottom surface 2 and a side wall surface 3 and can accommodate and hold a beverage container 4. It is supposed to be.

ここで、「カップホルダ1」は、飲料容器4を2個並べて収容可能な2つの容器収容部を有する二連形状のものとされる。このカップホルダ1は、例えば、運転席と助手席との間に設置されるセンターコンソールなどに設けられる。「カップホルダ本体5」の側壁面3には、飲料容器4の側面を押圧保持可能な可動フラップ7が出入可能に設けられている。この可動フラップ7は、図示しない付勢手段によって突出方向に付勢されている。   Here, the “cup holder 1” has a double shape having two container accommodating portions that can accommodate two beverage containers 4 side by side. The cup holder 1 is provided, for example, in a center console installed between a driver seat and a passenger seat. A movable flap 7 capable of pressing and holding the side surface of the beverage container 4 is provided on the side wall surface 3 of the “cup holder body 5” so as to be able to enter and exit. The movable flap 7 is biased in the protruding direction by a biasing means (not shown).

そして、上記したような構成に対し、この実施例では、以下のような構成を備えるようにしている。   In contrast to the above-described configuration, this embodiment has the following configuration.

(1)上記カップホルダ本体5の底面2に、この底面2を覆う透明な導光体11を設置する。
この導光体11に対し、図5の部分拡大断面図に示すように、光源12からの光13を入光する入光部14と、この入光部14から入光された光13を底面2の外周側へ向けて反射させる第一の反射部15と、図6に示すように、第一の反射部15で反射された光13(光束)を上方へ向けて反射させる第二の反射部16と、この反射部15,16で反射された光13を底面2の外周縁部に沿って上方へ出射させる出射部17と、を設ける。
そして、この出射部17の表面に対し、出射される照明光13aを拡散させて均一化し得るようにする光拡散部18を設ける。
更に、上記導光体11の上部に、上記出射部17を除いて導光体11を覆う遮光部材19を設ける。
(1) A transparent light guide 11 covering the bottom surface 2 is installed on the bottom surface 2 of the cup holder body 5.
As shown in the partial enlarged cross-sectional view of FIG. 5, the light guide 11 receives the light 13 from the light source 12 and the light 13 received from the light 14 is the bottom surface. 2 and the second reflection that reflects the light 13 (light beam) reflected by the first reflecting portion 15 upward as shown in FIG. And a light emitting portion 17 that emits light 13 reflected by the reflecting portions 15 and 16 upward along the outer peripheral edge of the bottom surface 2.
A light diffusing portion 18 is provided on the surface of the emitting portion 17 so that the emitted illumination light 13a can be diffused and made uniform.
Further, a light shielding member 19 that covers the light guide 11 except for the light emitting portion 17 is provided on the light guide 11.

ここで、「導光体11」は、カップホルダ本体5の底面2と、ほぼ同じ平面形状および大きさを有するものとされる。この場合には、図7に示すように、容器収容部が二連形状となっていることに合わせて、平面視ほぼ円形状のものを一部を重複させて2個連接したような、ほぼ8の字板状のものとされている。導光体11は、アクリルやポリカーボネートなどの樹脂で構成される。   Here, the “light guide 11” has substantially the same planar shape and size as the bottom surface 2 of the cup holder body 5. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7, in accordance with the container housing portion having a double shape, a part of a substantially circular shape in plan view is overlapped and partially connected. It is an 8-shaped plate. The light guide 11 is made of a resin such as acrylic or polycarbonate.

「光源12」には、例えば、LEDなどが用いられる。この光源12は、導光体11の中心位置に設けられる。この場合には、導光体11が平面視ほぼ8の字板状をしているので、二つの(容器収容部の)中心位置に対してそれぞれ設けるようにする。なお、カップホルダ本体5の底面2には、光源12からの光13を下方から通すための開口部21(図3参照)が形成される。この場合、光源12は開口部21の下側などに設置される。   For example, an LED or the like is used for the “light source 12”. The light source 12 is provided at the center position of the light guide 11. In this case, since the light guide 11 has a plate shape of approximately 8 in plan view, it is provided for each of the two central positions (of the container housing portion). An opening 21 (see FIG. 3) for allowing light 13 from the light source 12 to pass from below is formed on the bottom surface 2 of the cup holder body 5. In this case, the light source 12 is installed below the opening 21.

「入光部14」は、導光体11の下面における、光源12のほぼ真上となる位置に設けられる。この場合、入光部14は、開口部21の下縁部に形成される。入光部14は、光13をより広く拡散させるために、球面状の凹部とされている。   The “light incident part 14” is provided on the lower surface of the light guide 11 at a position almost directly above the light source 12. In this case, the light incident portion 14 is formed at the lower edge portion of the opening 21. The light incident portion 14 is a spherical concave portion in order to diffuse the light 13 more widely.

第一の「反射部15」は、導光体11の上面における、入光部14の真上の位置に設けられる。この場合、反射部15は、開口部21の上縁部に形成される。反射部15は、光13を導光体11の面に沿って放射状に拡散させるように、中心に向かって下り勾配となる円錐状のテーパ面とされている。   The first “reflecting part 15” is provided on the upper surface of the light guide 11 at a position directly above the light incident part 14. In this case, the reflecting portion 15 is formed at the upper edge portion of the opening 21. The reflecting portion 15 is formed as a conical tapered surface having a downward gradient toward the center so that the light 13 is diffused radially along the surface of the light guide 11.

第二の「反射部16」は、導光体11の外周面の下縁部に設けられる。この場合、反射部16は、上方へ向けて光13を案内できるように、反射部15とほぼ平行なテーパ面とされている。   The second “reflecting portion 16” is provided at the lower edge portion of the outer peripheral surface of the light guide 11. In this case, the reflecting portion 16 has a tapered surface substantially parallel to the reflecting portion 15 so that the light 13 can be guided upward.

「出射部17」は、導光体11の外周面における反射部16の上側の位置(外周縁部)に、上方へ突出するように設けられている。「光拡散部18」は、シボ模様などのような細かい凹凸形状のものなどとされる。「遮光部材19」は、所要の厚みを有する暗色のエラストマーや樹脂などによって形成される。遮光部材19は、光拡散部18を保護するように設置される。   The “emission part 17” is provided at a position (outer peripheral edge part) above the reflection part 16 on the outer peripheral surface of the light guide 11 so as to protrude upward. The “light diffusing portion 18” has a fine uneven shape such as a texture pattern. The “light shielding member 19” is formed of a dark color elastomer or resin having a required thickness. The light shielding member 19 is installed so as to protect the light diffusion portion 18.

(2)図6に示すように、上記出射部17は、上記遮光部材19の表面と同じかそれよりも低い摩耗防止用高さ31を有するものとされる。   (2) As shown in FIG. 6, the light emitting portion 17 has a wear prevention height 31 that is the same as or lower than the surface of the light shielding member 19.

ここで、「摩耗防止用高さ31」は、遮光部材19の厚みとの関係で定められる。即ち、摩耗防止用高さ31は、遮光部材19の厚みと同じかそれよりも若干低い高さに設定される。好ましくは、摩耗防止用高さ31は、遮光部材19の表面よりも僅かに低いものとする。   Here, “the height 31 for preventing wear” is determined in relation to the thickness of the light shielding member 19. That is, the wear prevention height 31 is set to a height that is the same as or slightly lower than the thickness of the light shielding member 19. Preferably, the wear prevention height 31 is slightly lower than the surface of the light shielding member 19.

(3)上記出射部17は、出射された光13がカップホルダ本体5の側壁面3を下側から照らし上げるように見せる側壁照明用出射幅41とされる。   (3) The emission part 17 has an emission width 41 for side wall illumination that makes the emitted light 13 appear to illuminate the side wall surface 3 of the cup holder body 5 from below.

ここで、「側壁面3を下側から照らし上げる」とは、図2に示すように、側壁面3の下部を面状に照明すると共に、この下部の照明が下側から上側へ向かって徐々に薄くなって行くような輝度変化のある照明効果のことである(なお、図では、都合上、白黒逆転した状態に描いている)。「側壁照明用出射幅41」は、概ね、1mm程度の範囲のものとされる(例えば、0.5mm〜1.2mm)。これは、出射部17の幅がこれよりも広くなると、底面2の輪郭を強調する平面的な照明に変化してしまい、反対に、出射部17の幅がこれよりも狭くなると、側壁面3に沿って光13を十分に照らし上げるだけの光量が得られなくなることによる。なお、少なくとも、側壁面3の下部の照明が届く範囲に対して、蛍光塗料などを塗布しておくようにしても良い。   Here, “illuminate the side wall surface 3 from below” illuminates the lower part of the side wall surface 3 in a planar shape as shown in FIG. 2, and the illumination at the lower part gradually increases from the lower side toward the upper side. It is a lighting effect with a brightness change that becomes thinner (in the figure, for the sake of convenience, it is drawn in a state where black and white are reversed). The “side wall illumination emission width 41” is approximately in the range of about 1 mm (for example, 0.5 mm to 1.2 mm). This is because when the width of the emitting portion 17 is wider than this, the illumination changes to planar illumination that emphasizes the contour of the bottom surface 2, and conversely, when the width of the emitting portion 17 is smaller than this, the side wall surface 3. The amount of light sufficient to illuminate the light 13 along the line cannot be obtained. Note that a fluorescent paint or the like may be applied at least in a range where the illumination of the lower part of the side wall surface 3 reaches.

(4)上記導光体11と上記遮光部材19とは、二色成形によって一体に成形された二色成形体51で構成される。   (4) The light guide 11 and the light shielding member 19 are constituted by a two-color molded body 51 formed integrally by two-color molding.

なお、導光体11と上記遮光部材19とは、構造的には、貼り合わせによって一体化することも可能である。   Note that the light guide 11 and the light shielding member 19 can be structurally integrated by bonding.

<作用効果>この実施例によれば、以下のような作用効果を得ることができる。   <Effect> According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

(1)カップホルダ1は、底面2と側壁面3とを有する有底容器状のカップホルダ本体5に対し、上方から飲料容器4を挿入することによって、飲料容器4を収容保持することができる。   (1) The cup holder 1 can accommodate and hold the beverage container 4 by inserting the beverage container 4 from above into the bottomed container-shaped cup holder body 5 having the bottom surface 2 and the side wall surface 3. .

そして、カップホルダ本体5内に、その底面2を覆うように透明な導光体11を設置した。これにより、光源12を点灯すると、光源12からの光13は入光部14から導光体11内へ入光され、入光部14から入光された光13は第一の反射部15によって導光体11内をカップホルダ本体5の底面2の外周側へ向けて反射され、外周部で第二の反射部16によって上側へ反射されて、出射部17からカップホルダ本体5の底面2の外周縁部に沿って上方へ出射されることになる。これにより、カップホルダ1の内部を照明することが可能となり、側壁面3と底面2との境界部分の位置や側壁面3の形状が把握し易くなる。以って、カップホルダ本体5の位置を確認し易くして、カップホルダ本体5に対する飲料容器4の出し入れを容易化することができる。また、飲料容器4や飲料が透明である場合には、これらを光らせることができる。   And the transparent light guide 11 was installed in the cup holder main body 5 so that the bottom face 2 might be covered. Accordingly, when the light source 12 is turned on, the light 13 from the light source 12 enters the light guide 11 from the light incident portion 14, and the light 13 incident from the light incident portion 14 is transmitted by the first reflecting portion 15. The inside of the light guide 11 is reflected toward the outer peripheral side of the bottom surface 2 of the cup holder main body 5, and is reflected upward by the second reflecting portion 16 at the outer peripheral portion, and from the emitting portion 17 to the bottom surface 2 of the cup holder main body 5. The light is emitted upward along the outer peripheral edge. Thereby, it becomes possible to illuminate the inside of the cup holder 1, and it becomes easy to grasp the position of the boundary portion between the side wall surface 3 and the bottom surface 2 and the shape of the side wall surface 3. Therefore, the position of the cup holder main body 5 can be easily confirmed, and the beverage container 4 can be easily put in and out of the cup holder main body 5. Moreover, when the drink container 4 and a drink are transparent, these can be made to shine.

この際、出射部17の表面に光拡散部18を設けた。これにより、出射部17から出射される照明光13aを拡散させて、照明の均一化を図ることができる。その結果、照明の見栄えを向上することができる。   At this time, the light diffusion portion 18 was provided on the surface of the emission portion 17. Thereby, the illumination light 13a emitted from the emission part 17 can be diffused to make the illumination uniform. As a result, the appearance of lighting can be improved.

更に、導光体11の上部に、出射部17を除いて導光体11を覆う遮光部材19を設けた。これにより、底面2の全面ではなく、側壁面3と底面2との境界部分に沿った照明を行うことができる。その結果、照明効果を高めることができる。   Further, a light shielding member 19 that covers the light guide 11 except for the emission portion 17 is provided on the light guide 11. Thereby, it is possible to perform illumination along the boundary portion between the side wall surface 3 and the bottom surface 2 instead of the entire bottom surface 2. As a result, the lighting effect can be enhanced.

そして、飲料容器4は、通常、下狭まり形状となっているため、遮光部材19の上に置かれることになると共に、出射部17および光拡散部18は、飲料容器4の底面を避けるようにカップホルダ本体5の側壁面3と底面2との境界(コーナー部)に沿って設置されていることにより、飲料容器4の擦れによる光拡散部18の摩耗を低減しまたは防止し易くすることができる。   Since the beverage container 4 is usually narrowed downward, the beverage container 4 is placed on the light shielding member 19, and the emitting unit 17 and the light diffusion unit 18 avoid the bottom surface of the beverage container 4. By being installed along the boundary (corner portion) between the side wall surface 3 and the bottom surface 2 of the cup holder body 5, it is possible to easily reduce or prevent wear of the light diffusion portion 18 due to rubbing of the beverage container 4. it can.

(2)出射部17を、遮光部材19の表面と同じかそれよりも低い摩耗防止用高さ31を有するものとした。これにより、仮に飲料容器4の底面が出射部17の上に置かれてしまうようなことが起こっても、飲料容器4による擦れをなくしたりまたは抑えたりして、光拡散部18の摩耗を低減または防止することができる。その結果、照明光13aの均一化効果を長期間に亘って持続することができる。   (2) The emitting portion 17 has a wear prevention height 31 that is the same as or lower than the surface of the light shielding member 19. As a result, even if the bottom surface of the beverage container 4 is placed on the emitting portion 17, the wear of the light diffusing portion 18 is reduced by eliminating or suppressing rubbing by the beverage container 4. Or it can be prevented. As a result, the uniformizing effect of the illumination light 13a can be maintained over a long period of time.

(3)出射部17を、側壁照明用出射幅41にして、出射部17から出射された光13によって、カップホルダ本体5の側壁面3を下側から照らし上げるように照明させるようにした。これにより、側壁面3が面で照明されることになるので、外部から照明を見易くすると共に、立体感のある照明を行うことができる。しかも、上へ行くに従って徐々に薄くなって行くような光の膜が生じるので、あたかもオーロラのような神秘的で高級感のある照明効果を演出することが可能となる。なお、出射部17を側壁照明用出射幅41よりも広くした場合には、側壁面3に対する照明が弱くなってしまい、底面2の輪郭のみが強調された平面的な照明に変わってしまうため、側壁面3の広い範囲を積極的に面で照明するような効果が得られず、立体感や高級感のない照明となってしまう。なお、側壁照明用出射幅41となるのは、概ね1mm前後の範囲に限られる。   (3) The emission part 17 has an emission width 41 for side wall illumination, and the side wall surface 3 of the cup holder body 5 is illuminated from the lower side by the light 13 emitted from the emission part 17. Thereby, since the side wall surface 3 is illuminated by the surface, it is possible to make the illumination easy to see from the outside and perform illumination with a stereoscopic effect. In addition, since a light film is formed that gradually becomes thinner as it goes upward, it is possible to produce a mysterious and high-grade lighting effect like an aurora. In addition, when the emission part 17 is made wider than the emission width 41 for the side wall illumination, the illumination on the side wall surface 3 is weakened, and the planar illumination in which only the contour of the bottom surface 2 is emphasized is changed. The effect of actively illuminating a wide range of the side wall surface 3 with a surface cannot be obtained, and the illumination does not have a three-dimensional effect or a high-class feeling. Note that the side wall illumination emission width 41 is generally limited to a range of about 1 mm.

(4)導光体11と遮光部材19とを、二色成形によって一体に成形された二色成形体51とした。これにより、部品点数や組付工数を減らして部品コストや製造コストを削減することが可能となると共に、導光体11と遮光部材19との組み合わせ精度や、側壁照明用出射幅41の精度を上げて、より均等で高品質な照明にすることが可能となる。   (4) The light guide 11 and the light shielding member 19 are formed as a two-color molded body 51 integrally formed by two-color molding.
