[Prior art]
Generally, a glove box for storing vehicle inspections and accessories is provided in a vehicle such as an automobile. However, since this glove box is usually installed under the dashboard on the passenger side, it is far from the driver's side when trying to store items that are always carried, such as lighters, cigarettes, wallets, and mobile phones. For this reason, it is inconvenient that it is difficult to take out or store the vehicle while getting on or off. For this reason, a storage tray placed on the dashboard is provided in order to allow the above-mentioned small items to be placed in a place where they can be easily reached even from the driver's seat. This storage tray can be moved without fixing the tray in addition to being fixed with adhesive tape on both sides so that it does not move on the dashboard due to centrifugal force applied during vibration, braking and turning during traveling. For example, a member that prevents slippage may be provided on the contact surface with the mounting surface.
[0002]
However, although these trays are prevented from moving, the placed articles may move in the tray and sometimes jump out of the tray, damaging the articles. In addition, if the tape material is peeled off when the position is changed, the adhesive remains on the dashboard and becomes a trace, or the conventional anti-slip member attached to the bottom surface does not slip. There was also a problem that the stopping effect gradually decreased.

As a result, the selection range of the shape of the storage tray 10 is widened, and the weight of the storage tray 10 is reduced to make it less susceptible to the centrifugal force when the vehicle body is turned or braked. be able to.
[0011]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The storage tray according to the present invention is a storage tray in which an article placement portion for placing an article on the upper surface side is formed, and a core material having shape retention and upper and lower surfaces of the core material Each includes a sheet member on which an article movement preventing member and a tray movement preventing member are arranged, and prevents both movement of the tray itself and movement of the article placed on the article placement portion.
[0012]
The storage tray needs to be formed with an opening on at least the upper surface side in order to provide the article placement portion, but the other shape is not particularly limited, and various shapes such as a circle and a quadrangle are possible. Can be formed.
[0013]
The article placement section is formed by molding a sheet member. For example, it is conceivable that the edge portion of the sheet member is bent upward over the entire circumference to form a wall surface, and the inner portion of the wall surface is used as the article placement portion.
[0014]
The sheet member includes a core, an article movement preventing member disposed on the upper surface of the core member, and a tray movement preventing member disposed on the lower surface. The core material is not particularly limited as long as it has a strength sufficient to maintain the shape as a tray, but it is particularly preferable that the core material is made from a synthetic resin foam that is lightweight and excellent in moldability. . Examples of the material of the synthetic resin foam used here include polyethylene foam, vinyl chloride foam, and polypropylene foam.
[0015]
The article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member are disposed for the purpose of preventing the objects or the tray from contacting and sliding. Accordingly, the article movement prevention member and the tray movement prevention member can be formed in the same manner. The article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member are not particularly limited as long as the above object can be achieved, but it is particularly preferable to use a member obtained by attaching a synthetic resin foam to a mesh fabric. . Examples of the mesh fabric include those obtained by weaving resin fibers and those obtained by forming a thin resin sheet on a mesh. As a synthetic resin foam, what is generally known as what has a slip prevention function like vinyl chloride, an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), etc. can be used, for example. These synthetic resin foams are excellent in that even if the anti-slip effect is lowered, the anti-slip effect can be maintained semipermanently by washing with water.
[0016]
In order to dispose the article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member on the core material, it is preferable to perform pressure bonding with a hot press. This is because the core material and both movement preventing members can be more closely attached. Further, by performing the heating press using a mold material for molding the sheet member, it is possible to perform the pressure bonding and molding of the core material and the both movement preventing members in one step.
[0017]
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
(Example 1)
FIG. 1 shows a storage tray 10 according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view thereof. The storage tray 10 is formed of a sheet member 20 cut into a quadrangle, and an edge portion 12 is bent upward, and an upper surface thereof serves as an article placement portion 11 on which an article is placed.
[0018]
The sheet member 20 has a three-layer structure including a core member 21, an article movement preventing member 22 that covers the upper surface of the core member 21, and a tray movement preventing member 23 that covers the lower surface. The core material 21 is made of a polyethylene foam formed by heating and foaming polyethylene.
[0019]
The article movement preventing member 22 and the tray movement preventing member 23 are configured in the same manner (hereinafter, simply referred to as “movement preventing member” in the first embodiment refers to both the article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member for the sake of convenience. And). These movement preventing members are prepared in advance before being disposed on the core. FIG. 3 shows a cross section of the movement preventing member, and FIG. 4 shows an enlarged view of the surface thereof. The movement preventing member is made of a mesh fabric 24 having a vinyl chloride foam 25 fixed on the surface thereof. The vinyl chloride foam 25 is foamed by applying liquid vinyl chloride on the mesh fabric 24 and then heating the mesh fabric 24. The movement preventing member produced in this manner exhibits an excellent anti-slip effect, and can easily recover the effect by washing with water even when the anti-slip effect has been reduced.
[0020]
Then, the article movement preventing member 22 and the tray movement preventing member 23 produced as described above are disposed on the upper surface and the lower surface of the core material 21, respectively, and are bonded to the core material 21 by hot pressing. In this way, the sheet member 20 having a three-layer structure is produced. Then, the sheet member 20 is molded using a mold material.
[0021]
The storage tray 10 thus formed not only prevents the movement of the storage tray 10 itself, but also prevents the article placed on the article placement unit 11 from moving, so that the article is caused by vibration or the like. It is possible to protect from jumping out and falling.
[0022]
The article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member are prepared in advance before being arranged on the core material as described above. In addition, a mesh fabric is first arranged on the core material, and then vinyl chloride or the like is used. The synthetic resin solution can be applied to a mesh fabric and heated and foamed.
[0023]
(Reference Example 1)
FIG. 5 shows a storage tray 10 according to Reference Example 1. The storage tray 10 according to the reference example 1 has the same overall shape as that of the first embodiment, but differs in that the core material 21 is directly subjected to article movement prevention processing and tray movement prevention processing.
[0024]
The core material 21 is made of a polyethylene foam as in the first embodiment. The vinyl chloride foam 25 is directly attached to both surfaces of the core material 21. This is processed by foaming by preliminarily attaching vinyl chloride to both surfaces before the core material 21 is hot-pressed and molded using a mold material, and then hot-pressing.
[0025]
In this way, by directly preventing the movement of the core material 21, the molding and the number of members can be reduced, so that the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
[0026]
【The invention's effect】
According to the storage tray of the first aspect, since the core member having the shape retaining property is provided in the sheet member, it can be stably placed on, for example, a dashboard of an automobile. In addition, an article movement prevention member is provided on the upper surface side of the core material, and a tray movement prevention member is provided on the lower surface side, thereby preventing the placed article from moving or jumping out in the article placement portion. In addition, since the tray itself is also prevented from moving, it is possible to protect the article or the tray itself from being damaged by being dropped due to centrifugal force or the like applied during braking or turning.
[0027]
Further, when the article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member are formed by adhering the synthetic resin foam on the mesh fabric, and the anti-slip effect is reduced, the article movement preventing member and the tray movement preventing member can be recovered again by washing with water. Therefore, the original anti-slip effect can be maintained. Furthermore, since flexibility can be provided as compared with a material such as rubber, the adhesion to the core material can be improved. Moreover, since the synthetic resin foam formed on the mesh fabric can be provided with large irregularities by applying a synthetic resin solution to the mesh fabric and heating and foaming, the anti-slip effect is further enhanced. be able to.
