When the lid 9 is pressed against the opening surface of the frame 8, The locking claw 10 of the lid 9 is locked in the hole 11 of the frame 8,
The lid 9 is attached to the opening surface of the frame 8. 12
Is a fixing member disposed in the center console 2. As the fixing member 12, a member forming the vehicle body or a member firmly fixed to a member forming the vehicle body is used.
Reference numeral 13 denotes a screw screwed into the screw hole of the fixing member 12. In FIG. 5, reference numeral 1 denotes the on-vehicle audio device;
Reference numeral 4 denotes a mounting bracket attached to the side surface of the in-vehicle audio device 1 with a screw 15, and a protruding piece 16 of the mounting bracket 14 is fixed to the fixing member 12 with a screw 17.

In the above embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the mounting portion 7 for the video monitor is normally closed by the lid 9, and the center console 2 has only the on-vehicle audio device 1. Is installed. In such a state, installing a navigation device in the vehicle interior,
Alternatively, when a television receiver is installed, it is necessary to mount a video monitor such as a liquid crystal display device in the passenger compartment.
FIG. 6 shows a state in which the video monitor is mounted using the mounting portion 7 for the video monitor. Video monitor 18
In the case of mounting, as shown in FIG. 6, the lid 9 covering the opening of the frame 8 is removed, the screw 13 screwed into the screw hole of the fixing member 12 is removed, and the image is formed using the screw 13. The mounting bracket 19 of the monitor 18 is mounted on the fixing member 12. The lower end of the mounting bracket 19 has the screw 13
Are formed in the screw holes 20 into which the holes are inserted. Fixing member 1
Screw 13 removed from 2 is screwed into screw hole 20 of mounting bracket 19
After the screw is inserted into the fixing member 12, the screw 13 is screwed into the screw hole of the fixing member 12 so that the mounting bracket 1 of the video monitor 18 is
9 is screwed to the fixing member 12.

FIG. 8 shows a lid 21 for closing the opening of the frame 8 after the video monitor 18 is attached. The lid 21 is formed with a notch 22 through which the mounting bracket 19 of the liquid crystal monitor penetrates. By engaging a locking claw formed on the lid 21 with a hole of the frame 8,
The lid 21 can be attached to the opening of the frame 8. In this case, the mounting bracket 19 projects outside through the notch 22 of the lid 21.

FIG. 9 shows a lid for closing the opening of the frame 8. A perforation 24 is formed in the lid 23. When the video monitor is not mounted, the lid 23 in the state shown in FIG. 9 is used. When the video monitor is mounted with the mounting bracket, the lid 23 is shown in FIG. A part 23A of the lid 23 is separated by a perforation 24 of the lid 23 to form a cutout for penetrating the mounting bracket.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, a notch is formed in a part of the outer peripheral portion of the lid, but a through hole may be formed in the lid.

[0013]

According to the present invention, when the image monitor is not required to be mounted, since the opening is closed by the lid, the mounting portion of the image monitor is hidden by the lid. It is. On the other hand, when installing the video monitor, remove the lid from the opening and screw the mounting bracket for the video monitor to the fixing member arranged inside the opening to easily and securely mount the video monitor. it can.
