  There is a demand for accommodating and transporting a sphere such as a soccer ball or volleyball in such a housing recess. However, since these spheres have poor stability when housed, the spheres roll and move in the housing recesses under the inertial force of the vehicle running. For this reason, there is a problem that the sphere collides with other stored luggage or collides with the wall surface of the accommodating recess to generate noise.

  The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a cargo floor box structure that can prevent a sphere from rolling and stably store the sphere.

In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a cargo floor box structure (7) having an upper opening, which is disposed in a storage recess (41) of an upper opening formed in a floor panel of a luggage room (2) at the rear of a vehicle body. a is, of the cargo floor box upper opening and openably cover the opening of the housing recess, has a plate-shaped floor lid constituting the floor of the flat luggage compartment (8), of the cargo floor box structure The upper surface (71a) of the bottom (71) is provided with a concave seat (75) on which the ball (9) is placed and holds the ball in a seated state.

In addition, the ball may be a soccer ball, particularly a No. 5 ball.

According to the present invention, the sphere is held by the seat provided on the bottom surface in the cargo floor box, and is stationaryly accommodated in the cargo floor box. Further, since the upward movement of the sphere by the floor lid is limited, sphere hardly detached from the seat, ing as more stably held.

FIG. FIG. 5 shows a state in which a sphere is stored in the cargo floor box structure. In the following description of the cargo floor box 7, the state in which the cargo floor box 7 is attached to the luggage room is used as a reference, and the vertical upper direction at that time is described as the upper side of the cargo floor box 7.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a luggage room 2 is formed behind the vehicle body 1. The floor portion of the luggage room 2 includes two rear frames 3 extending in the vehicle front-rear direction and a rear floor panel 4 supported by both rear frames 3 as main components. Yes. The luggage room 2 is surrounded by a rear seat 5, a rear inner panel 6, and a tailgate (not shown).

  The rear floor panel 4 that forms the floor surface of the luggage room 2 is formed with a storage recess 41 that opens upward in the center in the vehicle width direction. The storage recess 41 is provided with a cargo floor box 7 formed so as to match the shape of the storage recess 41. A floor lid 8 is provided above the storage recess 41 and the cargo floor box 7. The floor lid 8 is in contact with and fixed to the stepped portions 42 formed on both sides in the vehicle width direction of the storage recess 41 of the rear floor panel 4. The floor lid 8 is a foldable plate-like member, covers the storage recess 41 and the cargo floor box 7 in the unfolded state, closes, and exposes the storage recess 41 and the cargo floor box 7 in the folded state. To do.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the cargo floor box 7 is a box body opened upward having a bottom portion 71 and a side wall 72 rising upward from the peripheral edge of the bottom portion. As shown in FIG. 3, spacers 73 are provided on the lower surface of the bottom portion 71 in a grid pattern so as to fill the gap between the cargo floor box 7 and the rear floor panel 4 and improve the installation stability of the cargo floor box 7. It has been. A partition wall 74 may be provided inside the cargo floor box 7 in order to divide the internal space and improve the storage performance. The cargo floor box 7 is formed of, for example, a resin material or a foamable resin material.

  The bottom 71 is provided with a concave seat 75 for holding a sphere 9 such as a soccer ball or a volleyball in a seated state. The concave seat 75 may pass through the bottom 71. The outer edge 75a of the seat 75 has a substantially circular shape in plan view so as to coincide with the shape of the sphere. As shown in FIG. 4, the seat 75 is recessed in a spherical surface shape so as to follow the curved surface of the sphere 9.

  As shown in FIG. 5, when the cargo floor box 7 is closed by the floor lid 8, the depth of the seat 75 is such that the sphere 9 is gripped by the seat 75 and the floor lid 8. The distance between the bottom upper surface 75 b of the seat 75 and the lower surface 8 a of the floor lid 8 is formed to match the diameter of the sphere 9. For example, when the sphere 9 is a soccer ball No. 5 (diameter 22 cm), the distance between the bottom upper surface 75b of the seat 75 and the lower surface 8a of the floor lid 8 is set to 22 cm, and the height of the side wall 72 is 19 cm. In this case, the depth of the seat 75 is set to 3 cm. Note that the distance between the bottom upper surface 75 b of the seat 75 and the lower surface 8 a of the floor lid 8 may be set slightly smaller than the diameter of the sphere 9. In this case, the sphere 9 is pressed by the seat 75 and the floor lid 8 and is strongly gripped.

  By configuring the cargo floor box structure as described above, the sphere can be stably stored in the cargo floor box 7. By fitting the sphere 9 into the seat 75, the sphere 9 can be prevented from rolling, and the sphere 9 can be stopped in the cargo floor box 7 even when an inertial force is applied to the sphere 9 such as starting and stopping of the vehicle. become able to. Since the outer edge of the seat portion 75 has a substantially circular shape and the seat portion 75 is formed in a spherical shape, the coincidence with the surface of the sphere 9 is enhanced, and the positional stability of the sphere is improved. Further, since the sphere 9 is gripped by the seat 75 and the floor lid 8, it is difficult to detach from the seat 75 and the positional stability is high. Further, by forming the seat 75, a circular protrusion is formed on the lower surface of the bottom 71. However, since the cargo floor box 7 is installed on the rear floor panel 4 via the spacer 74, the installation stability is Not damaged.

  As an example in which a part of the embodiment is modified, a pad 10 made of an elastic member may be partially provided on the outer edge of the seat 75 as shown in FIG. The shape of the pad 10 may be a hemispherical or conical protrusion or a rectangular parallelepiped block, and the elastic member may be a rubber-like material or a sponge-like member. By doing so, even when the sphere 11 is slightly smaller than the sphere 9 designed for the purpose, the pad 10 closes the gap between the seat 75 and the sphere 11 and the coincidence between the sphere 11 and the seat 75 is achieved. And the sphere 11 can be stably held.

Although the description of the specific embodiment is finished as described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be widely modified. For example, in the embodiment, the sphere to be held is described as a sphere having a size similar to that of a soccer ball. However, by adjusting the sizes of the side wall 72, the spacer 73, and the seat 75 of the cargo floor box 7, for example, Other ball games balls such as soft balls and other spheres can be stored. In addition, the shape of the cargo floor box, the number of seats, and the arrangement position are exemplary, and can be appropriately changed without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
