DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. Reference numeral 1 denotes a side wall for interior such as quarter trim formed of resin or the like, and 7 denotes a floor material forming a floor surface. The side wall 1 and the floor member 7 constitute a luggage compartment of the vehicle, and the side wall 1 is integrally formed with a storage recess 2. The storage recess 2 has an open front surface and an inner wall 5 around it.
The bottom 5a is formed lower than the floor material 7, and the ceiling 5b is formed so as to be inclined so that the depth gradually increases from the front surface. Near the front surface of the ceiling 5b, there is formed a ventilation part 6 for communicating the inside and the outside of the vehicle, and the ventilation part 6 has a plurality of slits 6a and fins 6b.
Are formed alternately. Slit 6a and fin 6b
Are formed horizontally on the inclined ceiling 5b, and the fins 6b
Is formed in a hook shape so as to cover the back surface of the slit 6a. A fitting hole 2a for inserting the leg 9 of the lid 3 is formed in the front surface of the bottom 5a. The lid 3 attached to the storage recess 2 is formed in a flat plate shape covering the opening of the storage recess 2, and has a lock member 4 at an upper portion, a leg portion 9 at a lower portion, and a ventilation portion 8 at a center. I have. The locking member 4 includes a locking claw 4a provided on the back surface of the lid 3 and a knob 4b provided on the front surface. The locking claw 4a swings in conjunction with the operation of the knob 4b. At the shaft 4c. The locking claw 4a is urged by a spring (not shown) in a direction to engage with the storage recess 2. The leg 9 is a lid 3
And is inserted into the fitting hole 2a of the storage recess 2 to support the lid 3 at the time of mounting. Vent section 8
Are a plurality of alternately formed slits 8a and fins 8b
The fin 8b is formed in an inclined shape so as to cover the back surface of the slit 8a.

When the cover 3 is mounted in the storage recess 2, the leg 9 of the cover 3 is inserted into the fitting hole 2 a of the storage recess 2 so that the cover 3 covers the opening of the storage recess 2. close. At this time, the locking claw 4a of the lock member 4 is pushed open according to the inclination of the ceiling 5b of the storage recess 2, and is inserted and engaged with the slit 6a of the ventilation section 6 at the mounting position. The locking claw 4a engaged with the slit 6a is urged by a spring to maintain the locked state. When removing the lid 3,
