It is a diagram. FIG. 6 is a schematic cross-sectional view schematically showing a cross section along line AA in FIG. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing the open position (O) of the pen tool stand S of this embodiment, and FIG. 8 is a side view of the same. 9 is a schematic cross-sectional view schematically showing a cross section along line BB in FIG. 7, and FIG. 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view schematically showing a cross section along line CC in FIG. be. In this specification, the front side shown in FIG. 2, i.e., the lid portion 2 side, is referred to as "front", and the front, rear, left, right, top and bottom are described based on this, but this is for convenience of explanation. .

Next, the mode of use of this pen tool stand S will be described.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the pen tool stand S can be used by standing on a mounting surface M such as a top plate surface with the lid portion 2 in the open posture (O). can. That is, in this embodiment, the wire fastener 6 is opened, the lid portion 2 is rotated forward, and the second lid element 2B is rotated so as to be bent with respect to the first lid element 2A. By doing so, the opening 1a of the container body 1 can be fully opened. In this open posture (O), as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, the anti-slip 30 provided on the outer surface 13b of the bottom wall 13 of the container body 1 contacts the mounting surface M, and the lid A non-slip 67 provided on the rotating end 2b side of the portion 2, that is, the non-slip 67 provided on the handle 57 abuts on the mounting surface M, and the open posture (O) is maintained. In this open posture (O), the region 2c of the lid portion 2 on the side of the pivot end 2b, that is, the inner surface of the second lid element 2B, in other words, the inner surface 31b of the lower portion of the front wall 31 is turned outward. Therefore, an article SP such as a smart phone can be leaned against the inner surface of the second lid element 2B in an upright posture. At that time, since the anti-slip portion 59 is provided on the inner surface of the top wall 33 of the lid portion 2, it is possible to suppress the tipping of the propped article SP. Further, since the storage portion 61 provided on the inner surface of the second lid element 2B, that is, the inner surface 31b of the lower portion of the front wall 31 is exposed to the front, a seal or other items (not shown) can be stored in the storage portion 61. Small items can be put in and taken out freely. Further, in the open position (O), the storage space S1 for writing instruments and the storage space S2 for small articles of the container body 1 are opened upward and forward. Therefore, it is possible to freely lean the stick-shaped article P such as the writing instrument against the storage space S1 for the writing instrument and take it out. In addition, a storage object G such as a calculator can be stored in and taken out from the storage space S2 for small items.

When the lid portion 2 is returned from the open posture (O) described above to the closed posture (C) and the wire fastener 6 is closed, the pen tool stand S is transformed into a small bag as shown in FIGS. will do. Therefore, the writing instruments and other articles P and G stored in the storage space S1 for writing instruments and the storage space S2 for small articles can be carried while being stored inside. In this closed posture (C), as shown in FIG. 6, the housing portion 61 provided in the lid portion 2 is close to the inner surface of the container body 1, that is, the inner surface 11a of the back wall 11, which faces. As long as the articles G stored in the storage space S2 for small articles are made short, the interference between the articles G and the storage section 61 can be prevented, and the internal space can be effectively used. can be used for

With such a configuration, the posture stabilizing means 3 allows the lid portion 2 to abut on the mounting surface M and to move against the mounting surface M while the lid portion 2 is in the open posture (O). Since it can be stabilized in an inclined position and made to stand on its own, an article SP such as a smart phone can be leaned against the inner surface side of the lid portion 2 . In particular, if the article SP has a display part on one surface, such as a smartphone, the display part can be easily seen in a state in which the article SP is leaned against the inner surface of the lid part 2 . That is, the lid portion 2 can be used in a wider range of applications than containers with conventional configurations.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the upper edge of the container body 1 is not provided with an upper wall, and the upper open portion 1a1 of the opening 1a of the container body 1 reaches the back wall 11 of the container body 1. Therefore, the depth dimension of the upper open portion 1a1 can be maximized, and the articles P and G can be easily taken in and out of the storage spaces S1 and S2.

The lid portion 2 is rotatably connected to a first lid element 2A rotatably connected to the container body 1 via the connecting portion 7, and rotatably connected to the first lid element 2A. Since it is composed of the second lid element 2B, the opening width of the opening portion 1a of the container body 1 can be set large when the lid body 2 is in the open posture (O).

Since the posture stabilizing means 3 comprises the non-slip 30 provided on the bottom of the container body 1 and the non-slip 67 provided on the lid 2, the above-described open posture ( O) can be stably maintained.

Furthermore, with such posture stabilizing means 3, the opening angle between the first lid element 2A and the second lid element 2B can be set to be changeable, so that the inner surface of the lid portion 2 can be adjusted according to the user's preference. That is, the inclination angle of the inner surface 31b of the front wall 31 can be adjusted.

In addition, since the inner surface 33b of the top wall 33 of the lid portion 2 is provided with a non-slip portion 59, it is possible to prevent the article SP leaning against the inner surface of the lid portion 2 from slipping down. 2, that is, the inner surface 33b of the top wall 33 can be held stably.

A storage space 61 is provided on the inner surface of the upper portion of the lid 2 so as to protrude toward the inner surface of the container body 1 facing the closed position (C). As long as the articles stored in S2 are kept short, interference between the articles and the storage section 61 can be prevented, and the internal space can be effectively used, and the carrying is made easier. The movement of the articles stored in the storage space S2 can be blocked.

In addition, in this embodiment, both ends of the wire fastener 6 are slightly wrapped around the bottom surface of the container body 1, so that the opening 1a can be made larger in the open posture (O). However, both ends of the wire fastener 6 are set near the lower ends of the side wall 15 of the container body 1 and the side wall 35 of the lid portion 2, and the wire fastener 6 does not reach the bottom side of the container body 1. I don't mind.

<Second embodiment>
Next, a second embodiment of the invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 11-13. The pen tool stand SB, which is a container in the second embodiment, has a configuration conforming to the pen tool stand S of the first embodiment, and the parts that are the same as or corresponding to those of the first embodiment are , and description thereof is omitted.

This pen tool stand SB differs from the pen tool stand S in the first embodiment described above in the following points. First, the posture stabilizing means B3 of the pen tool stand SB in this embodiment comprises a hook 81 as a restraining tool for restraining the opening angle between the first lid element 2A and the second lid element 2B. The hook 81 comprises a male member 83 provided on the first lid element 2A side and a female member 85 provided on the second lid element 2B side. , the pen tool stand SB can be maintained in the open posture (O), and the lid portion 2 can be held in contact with the mounting surface M and stabilized in a tilted posture with respect to the mounting surface M. In this embodiment, at least the core material in the first lid element 2A is omitted so that the inner surface of the lid portion 2 can maintain the inclined state even when the hook 81 is hooked. .

With such a configuration, although the function of adjusting the tilt angle as in the first embodiment is lost, the simple configuration provides the effect of stably holding the open posture (O). be done. In other words, the angle of the first lid element 2A with respect to the mounting surface M can be more reliably kept constant in the open position (O) with the hook 81 hooked.

11 is a perspective view showing the closed position (C) of the pen tool stand SB of this embodiment, and FIG. 12 is a perspective view showing the same open position (O). 13 is a schematic cross-sectional view schematically showing a cross section taken along line DD in FIG. 12.

In this specification, the front side shown in FIG. 2, i.e., the lid portion 2 side, is referred to as "front", and the front, rear, left, right, top and bottom are described based on this, but this is for convenience of explanation. .

Next, the mode of use of this pen tool stand S will be described.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the pen tool stand S can be used by standing on a mounting surface M such as a top plate surface with the lid portion 2 in the open posture (O). can. That is, in this embodiment, the wire fastener 6 is opened, the lid portion 2 is rotated forward, and the second lid element 2B is rotated so as to be bent with respect to the first lid element 2A. By doing so, the opening 1a of the container body 1 can be fully opened. In this open posture (O), as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, the anti-slip 30 provided on the outer surface 13b of the bottom wall 13 of the container body 1 contacts the mounting surface M, and the lid A non-slip 67 provided on the rotating end 2b side of the portion 2, that is, the non-slip 67 provided on the handle 57 abuts on the mounting surface M, and the open posture (O) is maintained. In this open posture (O), the region 2c of the lid portion 2 on the side of the pivot end 2b, that is, the inner surface of the second lid element 2B, in other words, the inner surface 31b of the lower portion of the front wall 31 is turned outward. Therefore, an article SP such as a smart phone can be leaned against the inner surface of the second lid element 2B in an upright posture. At that time, since the anti-slip portion 59 is provided on the inner surface of the top wall 33 of the lid portion 2, it is possible to suppress the tipping of the propped article SP. Further, since the storage portion 61 provided on the inner surface of the second lid element 2B, that is, the inner surface 31b of the lower portion of the front wall 31 is exposed to the front, a seal or other items (not shown) can be stored in the storage portion 61. Small items can be put in and taken out freely. Further, in the open position (O), the storage space S1 for writing instruments and the storage space S2 for small articles of the container body 1 are opened upward and forward. Therefore, it is possible to freely lean the stick-shaped article P such as the writing instrument against the storage space S1 for the writing instrument and take it out. In addition, a storage object G such as a calculator can be stored in and taken out from the storage space S2 for small items.

When the lid portion 2 is returned from the open posture (O) described above to the closed posture (C) and the wire fastener 6 is closed, the pen tool stand S is transformed into a small bag as shown in FIGS. will do. Therefore, the writing instruments and other articles P and G stored in the storage space S1 for writing instruments and the storage space S2 for small articles can be carried while being stored inside. In this closed posture (C), as shown in FIG. 6, the housing portion 61 provided in the lid portion 2 is close to the inner surface of the container body 1, that is, the inner surface 11a of the back wall 11, which faces. As long as the articles G stored in the storage space S2 for small articles are made short, the interference between the articles G and the storage section 61 can be prevented, and the internal space can be effectively used. can be used for

With such a configuration, the posture stabilizing means 3 allows the lid portion 2 to abut on the mounting surface M and to move against the mounting surface M while the lid portion 2 is in the open posture (O). Since it can be stabilized in an inclined position and made to stand on its own, an article SP such as a smart phone can be leaned against the inner surface side of the lid portion 2 . In particular, if the article SP has a display part on one surface, such as a smartphone, the display part can be easily seen in a state in which the article SP is leaned against the inner surface of the lid part 2 . That is, the lid portion 2 can be used in a wider range of applications than containers with conventional configurations.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the upper edge of the container body 1 is not provided with an upper wall, and the upper open portion 1a1 of the opening 1a of the container body 1 reaches the back wall 11 of the container body 1. Therefore, the depth dimension of the upper open portion 1a1 can be maximized, and the articles P and G can be easily taken in and out of the storage spaces S1 and S2.

The lid portion 2 is rotatably connected to a first lid element 2A rotatably connected to the container body 1 via the connecting portion 7, and rotatably connected to the first lid element 2A. Since it is composed of the second lid element 2B, the opening width of the opening portion 1a of the container body 1 can be set large when the lid body 2 is in the open posture (O).

Since the posture stabilizing means 3 comprises the non-slip 30 provided on the bottom of the container body 1 and the non-slip 67 provided on the lid 2, the above-described open posture ( O) can be stably maintained.

Furthermore, with such posture stabilizing means 3, the opening angle between the first lid element 2A and the second lid element 2B can be set to be changeable, so that the inner surface of the lid portion 2 can be adjusted according to the user's preference. That is, the inclination angle of the inner surface 31b of the front wall 31 can be adjusted.

In addition, since the inner surface 33b of the top wall 33 of the lid portion 2 is provided with a non-slip portion 59, it is possible to prevent the article SP leaning against the inner surface of the lid portion 2 from slipping down. 2, that is, the inner surface 33b of the top wall 33 can be held stably.

A storage space 61 is provided on the inner surface of the upper portion of the lid 2 so as to protrude toward the inner surface of the container body 1 facing the closed position (C). As long as the articles stored in S2 are kept short, interference between the articles and the storage section 61 can be prevented, and the internal space can be effectively used, and the carrying is made easier. The movement of the articles stored in the storage space S2 can be blocked.

In addition, in this embodiment, both ends of the wire fastener 6 are slightly wrapped around the bottom surface of the container body 1, so that the opening 1a can be made larger in the open posture (O). However, both ends of the wire fastener 6 are set near the lower ends of the side wall 15 of the container body 1 and the side wall 35 of the lid portion 2, and the wire fastener 6 does not reach the bottom side of the container body 1. I don't mind.
