  By the way, the attachment structure of the spectacles holder disclosed by patent document 1 is fixing by inserting a screw and a bolt in the through-hole drilled in the attachment member, and screwing in the interior surface of a vehicle body. For this reason, it is pointed out that the mounting work of the eyeglass holder is complicated and time-consuming. Further, since the tray biased by the spring is held in a closed state by the edge of the tray being pressed against the interior surface, the interior surface may be damaged by the edge of the tray. There is.

  That is, the present invention has been proposed in order to suitably solve these problems inherent in the glasses holder according to the prior art, and is a glasses holder that is easy to mount and does not damage the interior surface. The purpose is to provide.

In order to overcome the above problems and achieve the intended purpose, the eyeglass holder according to the present invention includes:
In the eyeglass holder comprising a tray that is rotatably disposed on the interior surface of the vehicle body via an attachment member and is always biased toward the interior surface by the biasing means and held in a closed state,
The mounting member;
A main body with an insertion hole in the center,
A locking portion that is integrally provided on the front surface of the main body, extends forward across the insertion hole, and is elastically deformed when inserted into the opening of the vehicle body; and
An insertion member that is inserted into the insertion hole from the rear side of the main body portion and holds the locking portion to prevent the opening portion from falling off,
The mounting member is located inside the tray when the tray is closed,
Ribs projecting from the peripheral edge toward the inner side of the tray at a position close to the mounting member at the peripheral edge of the tray ,
In the temporary fixing position where the insertion member is inserted halfway through the insertion hole, the rib and the insertion member are engaged to restrict the rotation of the tray.

  According to the eyeglass holder of the present invention, the locking portion of the main body portion of the mounting member disposed on the tray is inserted into the opening of the vehicle body, and the locking portion is held by the insertion member inserted into the main body portion. By attaching to the vehicle body using the attachment member configured as described above, it is possible to easily and easily attach the vehicle body to the vehicle body. Therefore, it is possible to suitably facilitate and rationalize the operation of attaching the eyeglass holder to the vehicle body. Further, the rotation of the tray is restricted by contact between the rib projecting from the peripheral edge and the mounting member, and the end edge of the tray does not contact the interior surface in the closed state of the tray. Avoiding damage to the interior surface. Further, when the eyeglass holder is transported before being assembled to the vehicle body, the insertion member of the mounting member held at the temporarily fixed position and the rib are engaged to restrict the rotation of the tray. It is possible to prevent the inner surface from coming into contact with the mounting member, to prevent the inner surface of the tray from being damaged, and to pack the inserted member in the inserted state, thereby facilitating management.

  Next, the spectacles holder according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings by way of preferred examples.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the eyeglass holder 20 of the embodiment is attached to a tray 50 formed in a required size capable of holding articles such as glasses and sunglasses, and an interior surface 10 a of the vehicle body 10. For example, in the interior surface 10a located on the ceiling surface of the passenger compartment, it is installed between sun visors respectively disposed in front of the driver seat and the passenger seat.

  The tray 50 is formed in a bucket shape having a substantially rectangular top view and an open top surface. The inner side of the tray 50 is made of a flexible material such as felt to improve the protection and decorativeness of the articles stored therein. The material 54 is affixed. In the tray 50 according to the embodiment, a projection 56 is formed at a substantially central portion, and when the glasses or the like are placed, the projections 56 can be sandwiched by nose pads such as glasses. It is designed to regulate rattling of stored glasses.

  In the eyeglass holder 20 of the embodiment, a pair of resin mounting members 25, 25 used to fix the tray 50 to the vehicle body 10 are attached to both ends of one long side of the tray 50 with respect to the tray 50. It is rotatably arranged (see FIG. 1). And the opening part 12 and 12 of a required dimension is pierced in the site | part to which the spectacles holder 20 of the vehicle body 10 is attached at the time of manufacture of the vehicle body 10, and attachment members 25 and 25 are corresponding to this opening part 12 and 12. It is structured to be pushed into and locked.

  Each mounting member 25 is pivotally supported by a support hole 35, 35 formed in a pair of mounting pieces 34, which will be described later, with an oil damper 58 provided on the tray 50 at one end, and the oil damper 58 at the other end. Is pivotally mounted to the tray 50 by inserting and fixing a pivot shaft 62 that is pivotally supported by a bearing portion 60 that is disposed opposite to and extends along the long side direction of the tray 50 (see FIG. 5). Further, biasing means 64 such as a coil spring is inserted between the pivot shaft 62 and the mounting member 25, and the biasing means 64 always directs the tray 50 in a direction close to the mounting members 25 and 25. Thus, when the glasses holder 20 is installed on the vehicle body 10, the tray 50 functions to hold the posture of the tray 50 at a position where the peripheral edge of the tray 50 faces the interior surface 10a (closed position) ( (See FIG. 3 (a)). Here, in the closed state of the tray 50, the attachment members 25, 25 are positioned inside the tray 50. Further, when the tray 50 is rotated in a direction away from the attachment members 25, 25, the tray 50 is opened with the long side provided with the attachment members 25, 25 as a rotation fulcrum and facing the passenger compartment side. The state is displaced (see FIG. 3B). Note that the tray 50 is rotated in the direction of closing slowly toward the interior surface 10a under the action of the oil damper 58 that supports the pivot shaft 62.

  As shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 5, ribs 52 project from the periphery of the tray 50 and at positions close to the mounting members 25. Since the mounting members 25 and 25 of the embodiment are arranged at both ends of the long side of the tray 50, each rib 52 is directed inward from the corresponding peripheral portion of the short side of the tray 50. Each is protruding. Each rib 52 abuts on a support plate portion 30 (described later) of the corresponding mounting member 25 in the closed state of the tray 50 (see FIG. 1), and is engaged with the insertion member 28 at a temporary fixing position (described later) of the mounting member 25. (See FIG. 4). Each rib 52 also functions as a presser for the edge of the decorative material 54.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7, the structure of the mounting members 25 and 25, which are fixtures that hold the tray 50 at a required position on the interior surface 10 a in the vehicle 10 while rotatably supporting the tray 50. I will explain. For convenience of explanation, the direction indicated by the arrow F in FIG. 6 is the front side of the mounting member 25, the direction opposite to the direction indicated by the arrow F is the rear side of the mounting member 25, and the direction indicated by the arrow U is the upper side of the mounting member 25. And the direction opposite to the direction indicated by the arrow U is the lower side of the mounting member 25. Since the left and right mounting members 25, 25 have the same configuration, only one will be described. The attachment member 25 is integrally provided on the front surface of the main body portion 26 with the insertion hole 31 formed in the central portion, extends forward through the insertion hole 31, and is inserted into the opening portion 12 of the vehicle body 10.

It is basically composed of the member 28.

  The main body portion 26 mainly includes a support plate portion 30 having a substantially rectangular plate shape integrally formed from a synthetic resin such as polyacetal, and an insertion hole 31 is formed at a substantially center of the support plate portion 30. The insertion hole 31 established in the main body portion 26 is formed in a vertical cross-sectional shape into which the insertion pin 45 in the insertion member 28 can be inserted, and has a substantially T-shape as a whole. On the rear surface side of the support plate portion 30, a frame body portion 32 having a substantially vertical cross-sectional shape is integrally formed with the support plate portion 30, and a head portion 46 of the insertion member 28 is defined by the frame body portion 32. It can be accommodated in the defined space (see FIG. 3 or FIG. 5). Further, on the front side of the support plate 30, abutting portions 33, 33 projecting forward and abutting against the outer surface of the vehicle body 10 are provided in a horizontally long manner on the upper and lower portions sandwiching the locking portion 27. Further, attachment pieces 34 and 34 for connecting the main body portion 26 to the tray 50 are integrally formed at the lower corners of the support plate portion 30 and the frame body portion 32 at a required interval. In the pieces 34, 34, support holes 35, 35 for the pivot shaft 62, which are installed on both the attachment pieces 34, 34, are formed.

  The locking portion 27 is formed of a first locking claw 37, a second locking claw 38, and a third locking claw 39 that are integrally formed with the support plate portion 30 and extend forward from the support plate portion 30. The left edge, the right edge and the lower edge of the insertion hole 31 are surrounded. Among these, the 1st latching claw 37 and the 2nd latching claw 38 are always extended in parallel through the insertion hole 31, and the base part connected with the support plate part 30 becomes thin, and the support plate part 30 is joined in a vertically long shape, and the base portion is formed as locking recesses 40 and 40. Accordingly, both the locking claws 37 and 38 are restricted from elastic deformation in the vertical (vertical) direction, but are allowed to elastically deform in the horizontal (left and right) direction around the base side. The elastic deformation to the forward converged state in which the distal end portions are brought close to each other with the peripheral edge portion of the insertion hole 31 as the swing center is possible. On the other hand, the third locking claw 39 located below the first locking claw 37 and the second locking claw 38 has a thin base portion that is continuous with the support plate 30 and is horizontally long from the support plate 30. The base portion is a locking recess 41. In the embodiment, the locking portion 27 is composed of the first to third locking claws 37, 38, 39, but is not limited to this, and the locking portion 27 faces the insertion hole 31. What is necessary is just to provide a pair of latching claws 37 and 38 at least.

  The insertion member 28 is accommodated in the frame body 32 and the insertion pin 45 that is allowed to be inserted between the first to third locking claws 37, 38, 39 through the insertion hole 31. It is composed of a head 46 having a shape, and has a generally plane T shape as a whole. When the insertion pin 45 is inserted from the rear side of the support plate portion 30 through the insertion hole 31, the insertion pin 45 is in sliding contact with the inner wall surfaces of the first locking claw 37, the second locking claw 38 and the third locking claw 39. Move while. Further, when the insertion pin 45 is inserted to the maximum (final fixing position), it comes into close contact with each of the locking claws 37, 38, 39, and holds each of the locking claws 37, 38, 39. Convergent elastic deformation is regulated (see FIG. 3). When the insertion member 28 is inserted into the insertion hole 31, the side portion facing the short side of the tray 50 in the head 46 of the insertion member 28 is engaged with the rib 52 at a temporary fixing position described later. A protrusion 46a is provided. Then, when the insertion member 28 is completely inserted into the main body 26, a recess 32 a that aligns with the protrusion 46 a is provided in the frame body 32.

  Further, on the rear surface of the support plate portion 30 in the main body portion 26, first and second action pieces 48, 48 are provided. The first and second action pieces 48, 48 are formed integrally with the support plate 30 at the left and right side edges with the insertion hole 31 therebetween, and the first and second locking claws 37, 38 It forms in the state extended correspondingly so that it might align, and it can be elastically deformed in the peripheral part of the insertion hole 31. FIG. In addition, rear projecting pieces 48 a directed inward of the insertion holes 31 are integrally protruded from the rear ends of both action pieces 48. When the insertion pin 45 of the insertion member 28 is inserted from the rear side of the support plate 30 to the middle of the insertion hole 31, the contact surfaces 45a and 45a of the insertion member 28 are slidably contacted with the rear protrusions 48a and 48a. The pieces 48, 48 are elastically deformed in the rearwardly expanded state. When the rear projecting pieces 48a and 48a are engaged with corresponding engaging grooves 47 and 47 formed in the insertion member 28, the first and second action pieces 48 and 48 are respectively original. The elastic member returns to the state, and the insertion member 28 is prevented from being detached from the main body portion 26.

  At the temporarily fixed position where the insertion pin 45 of the insertion member 28 is inserted halfway into the insertion hole 31 from the rear side of the support plate 30, each contact surface 45 a of the insertion pin 45 comes into contact with each rear protrusion 48 a. The first and second working pieces 48, 48 are elastically deformed in the rearwardly expanded state. In addition, each rear protrusion 48a is fitted in a groove 45b provided in each contact surface 45a. In addition, since the return elastic force of each action piece 48 elastically deformed in the rearward expanded state acts on the insertion pin 45, and the rear protrusion 48a is fitted in each groove 45b, the insertion member 28 inserted halfway is the main body part. 26 is preferably held under pressure, and is preferably prevented from dropping from the main body 26 during conveyance or during work. The attachment member 25 into which the insertion member 28 has been inserted halfway in advance positions the locking portion 27 in the opening 12 while holding the main body portion 26 with a fingertip, for example. Next, when the main body portion 26 is pushed toward the vehicle body 10, the locking portion 27 is inserted into the opening portion 12 while being elastically deformed, and the contact portions 33, 33 come into contact with the vehicle body 10 (see FIG. 2). ).

  As shown in FIG. 2, the biasing means 64 is always provided at the temporary fixing position where the insertion pin 45 of the insertion member 28 is sandwiched between the first and second action pieces 48 and 48 and the insertion member 28 protrudes from the main body 26. The protrusions 46a of the insertion members 28 corresponding to the ribs 52 projecting from the peripheral edge of the short side of the tray 50 biased so as to rotate in the direction approaching the mounting members 25, 25. By engaging with each other, the rotation of the tray 50 is restricted against the stress of the biasing means 64 (see FIG. 2 or FIG. 4). That is, the insertion member 28 that is inserted halfway and protrudes does not come into contact with the decorating material 54 affixed to the inside of the tray 50, so that the decorating material 54 is not damaged by the inserting member 28. Therefore, the glasses holder 20 can be packed with the insertion member 28 of the mounting member 25 inserted into the main body 26, and it is not necessary to manage the insertion member 28 separately from the main body 26. 20 management can be facilitated. At the temporarily fixed position, the tray 50 is held in a state of being separated from the mounting members 25, 25. Therefore, when the locking portion 27 of the main body portion 26 is inserted into the opening 12 of the vehicle body 10, the main body portion 26 is externally attached. Therefore, the main body 26 can be easily positioned with respect to the opening 12. Further, with respect to the operation of inserting the insertion member 28 into the main body portion 26, the ribs 52, 52 and the insertion members 28, 28 are engaged with the tray 50 opened, so that the insertion operation of the insertion member 28 is easy. It can be done.

  Next, the locking portion 27 is completely inserted into the opening 12, and the opening 12 is inserted into the locking recesses 40, 40, 41 of the first locking claw 37, the second locking claw 38, and the third locking claw 39. The first locking claw 37, the second locking claw 38, and the third locking claw 39 are formed by pressing the head 46 of the insertion member 28 with a fingertip and pushing the insertion member 28 with The state locked to the side edge of the opening 12 is maintained. As described above, in the main fixing position where the insertion member 28 is inserted at the maximum with respect to the main body 26, the insertion pin 45 of the insertion member 28 has the first locking claw 37, the second locking claw 38, and the third locking claw. Since the claw 39 is in close contact with the inner wall surface, each of the locking claws 37, 38, 39 is always restricted from elastic deformation to the forward converged state. Accordingly, even when an external force is applied to the mounting members 25 and 25 by the articles stored in the tray 50, the appropriate locking state of the locking portions 27 with respect to the vehicle body 10 is always ensured. The inconvenience of falling off is preferably prevented.

  As described above, the attachment member 25 can be securely attached to the vehicle body 10 simply by inserting the engaging portion 27 of the main body portion 26 into the opening 12 of the vehicle body 10 and completely inserting the insertion member 28 into the insertion hole 31. The mounting operation can be easily performed without using a tool, the labor for the mounting operation can be reduced, and the working efficiency can be improved. Therefore, it is possible to preferably facilitate and rationalize the operation of attaching the eyeglass holder 20 to the vehicle body 10. Further, at the fixed position where the insertion member 28 is completely inserted into the main body 26, the ribs 52, 52 projecting from the peripheral edge on the short side of the tray 50 are the support plate portions of the corresponding mounting members 25, 25. It is configured to regulate the rotation of the tray 50 by abutting on 30 and 30 (see FIG. 3A). The rotation restricting position of the tray 50 is set so as to restrict the rotation before the end edge of the tray 50 contacts the interior surface 10a, and the tray 50 comes into contact with the interior surface 10a and the interior surface 10a is moved. Damage is prevented.

  In the embodiment, the action pieces 48 are provided on the main body portion 26 of the attachment member 25, but this is not an essential requirement. By holding the insertion member 28 in the insertion hole 31, the insertion member 28 is suspended in the main body portion 26. You may comprise so that the temporarily fixed position inserted may be maintained.
