[0009]

When the storage container is used, when the band of the cushion body is pulled, the latch body is pulled and the engagement with the striker is released. Then pull the band further to raise the cushion body. Thus, the cushion body is pivoted about the hinge and is raised forward. When the cushion main body is raised, the upper surface of the storage container is opened, so that shopping or other luggage can be stored in the storage container. The storage container can be removed from the fastening portion and pulled up, so that the storage container can be removed from the upper end frame portion of the side frame and carried around. When the cushion body is set, the storage container is fixed by the elastic body provided on the lower surface of the cushion main body, so that the storage container can be securely fixed.

[0010]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 to 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a seat applied to a passenger seat of an automobile. This sheet 1
Is composed of a seat cushion 2 and a seat back 3 provided at a rear end of the seat cushion 2 via a reclining mechanism (not shown). The seat cushion 2 is composed of a cushion frame 4 and a cushion body 5, and the cushion body 5 is
Are provided so as to be rotatable forward around a front end portion via a hinge mechanism 6 provided between the front end and the front end.

As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the cushion frame 4 is arranged in the front-rear direction of a vehicle having a quadrangular shape.
And a pair of side frames 7, 7 extending these between the front ends top mutual side frames 7,7 and spanned between the rear end upper cross, is composed of a front pipe 8 and the rear pipe 9 constitutes an upper surface frame ing. A buckle 10 for a seat belt is mounted on one side frame 7 of the cushion frame 4.

A bracket 11 is welded to a lower portion of the cushion frame 4, and the bracket 11 is attached to a slide rail 12. This slide rail 1
2 is a bolt 13 and a nut 14
And an upper rail 15 fixed via the upper rail 15 slidably supporting the upper rail 15 and the floor 1
Front and rear brackets 1 on brackets 17 provided on
8 and a lower rail 19 fixed through the lower rail 8. The bracket 18 is integrally formed with a bracket 18a provided at the front of the lower rail 19, a bracket 18b provided at the rear of the lower rail 19, and a bracket 18b at the rear indoor side of the lower rail 19, and at the center of the floor 16 It is composed of a bracket 18c fixed to a tunnel (not shown). The upper rail 15 and the lower rail 19 of the slide rail 12 are configured such that rail portions 15 a and 19 a having a U-shaped cross section are opposed to each other, and the upper flange portion 15 b of the upper rail 15 is formed by the upper flange portion 15 b of the lower rail 19. The lower rail 19 is formed in a U-shape in cross section so as to be located on the lower side, and the lower flange portion 15c of the lower rail 19 is positioned in an inverted U-shape so as to be located above the lower flange portion 15c of the upper rail 15.
It is formed in a character shape.

A cover 20 is provided on the outer surface of the cushion frame 4, and a lever 21 of a reclining device is provided outside the cover 20. At the rear end of the cushion main body 5, a band 22 for raising the cushion main body 5 is provided. This band 22 is for releasing a latch mechanism 23 provided on the cushion main body 5. As shown in FIG. 7, in the latch mechanism 23, a latch body 25 is urged by a spring (not shown) built in a latch case 24, and a striker 26 engaging with the latch body 25 is 4 attached to the rear pipe 9. The latch mechanism 23 operates the latch body 25 against the spring by pulling the band 22 to release the engagement between the latch body 25 and the striker 26.

Reference numeral 27 denotes a storage container made of synthetic resin which is detachably provided in the lower space of the cushion main body 5. The storage container 27 is constructed as shown in FIGS. I have. The storage container 27 is formed with outwardly curved flanges 28 on both sides of the upper end and on the front and rear portions. Of the flanges 28, the flanges 28 b on both sides are connected to the side frames 7 , 7, and the front flange portion 28a of the flange portion 28 is engaged with the front pipe 8 and attached. Both ends of a wire-made handle 29 are rotatably mounted on the upper ends of both sides of the storage container 27.
7 is locked by a fastening portion 30 provided integrally with the upper surface of the front end portion. This retaining portion 30 forms a slit 31 for retaining the handle 29 at the turning position of the handle 29,
A part of the storage container 27 is cut and raised in a double door.

As shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, a cushion rubber 34 as an elastic body is provided on the cushion main body 5 via a screw 35 on the lower surface on both sides of a cushion panel 33 provided on the lower surface of the cushion 32, as shown in FIGS. When the cushion main body 5 is set, the upper surface of the flange portion 28b of the storage container 27 is sandwiched between the upper end frame portion 7a by the cushion rubber 34, and the storage container 27 is fixed.

According to the vehicle seat structure having the above structure, when the storage container 27 is used, the cushion body 5 is used.
When the band 22 is pulled, the latch body 25 is pulled and the engagement with the striker 26 is released. And band 22
To further raise the cushion body 5. Thus, the cushion main body 5 is pivoted around the rotation center of the hinge mechanism 6 and is raised forward.

When the cushion body 5 is raised, the upper surface of the storage container 27 is opened, so that the shopping baggage can be stored in the storage container 27. The storage container 27 can be removed from the fastening portion 30 and pulled up, so that the storage container 27 can be removed from the upper end frame portion 7a of the side frames 7, and can be carried around.

The storage container 27 is attached to the upper frame portion 7a of the side frames 7, 7 via a flange portion 28b.
When the cushion body 5 is tilted backward, the latch body 25 is engaged with the striker 26 and the cushion body 5 is locked. At this time, the flange 28 b of the storage container 27 is attached to the cushion rubber 3 attached to the lower surface on both sides of the cushion body 5.
4, the upper frame portion 7a of the side frames 7, 7
And is held down between them, so that there is no danger of rattling during traveling.

The effects of the above embodiment are as follows. The cushion body 5 of the seat cushion 2 is attached to the cushion frame 4 so as to be rotatable forward around the front end,
Since the storage container 27 is detachably attached to the lower side space of the cushion main body 5, the cushion main body 5 can be raised to store luggage and the like in the storage container 27. Since the storage container 27 can be carried away from the cushion frame 4, it can be used instead of a shopping basket or a container. Further, when the present invention is applied to the passenger seat, the band 22 can be pulled from the driver's seat or the rear seat to cause the cushion main body 5, so that the luggage can be easily taken out. Also, the flange portion 2 of the storage container 27
Since the elastic body 34 that presses against the flange portion 28b when the cushion body 5 is set is mounted on the lower surface of the cushion body 5 corresponding to 8b, the storage container 27 can be fixed at an appropriate position. In addition, since rattling during traveling can be prevented, generation of noise can be prevented. Further, since the storage container 27 is formed of a synthetic resin, noise when opening and closing the cushion body 5 can be prevented. The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. For example, the vehicle seat structure is not limited to an automobile but may be a vehicle such as a motor boat, and may be applied not only to a passenger seat but also to a driver seat. . Further, the present invention can also be applied to a rear seat such as a one-box car.
