Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Field of Application> The present invention relates to an armrest provided on the inside surface of an automobile door.

<Prior art> In order to hold a youth can, a cup containing a drink, etc. so that it does not fall over in the interior of a car, as shown in Fig. 4, the glass 2 of the door 1 is latched between the raised and lowered parts. A special holder is used in which a saucer 4 such as a cup 6 and a ring holder 5 are fixed to the hook 3.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> In order to hold a cup, etc. with the above-mentioned conventional holder, it is necessary to purchase the holder, and if the holder is left in place, it will not look good when not in use. It also gets in the way. To get it out of the way,
It is necessary to store it in a storage compartment provided in the instrument panel, but it is troublesome to put it in and take it out.

The present invention utilizes an armrest provided on the inner side of the door to make it possible to hold a cup or the like with a single touch, thereby solving the above-mentioned conventional problems.

<Means for solving the problem> The present invention has an L-shaped cutout space that opens across the top surface and a surface perpendicular to the top surface of a part of the armrest body fixed to the inside surface of the door. is provided in this notch space, in a closed state, the opening is closed and the surface is flush with the outer surface of the armrest body, and in an open state, one side is flush with the bottom surface of the notch space, and the other side is A shaped lid facing the rear elevational surface of the cutout space is pivotally mounted to open and close freely, and side plates are provided on both sides of the lid that face parallel to the front and rear elevations of the cutout space. It is.

<Function> In the present invention, when the lid is opened, the bottom of the lid and the bottom of the space become flush, and a cup or the like is held by the lid and the space.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 3. Reference numeral 10 denotes an armrest main body fixed to the inside surface of the door. This armrest body 1
0 is provided with an L-shaped cutout space 11 that opens across the top surface and a surface perpendicular to the top surface,
In this notch space 11, when the opening is closed, the opening becomes flush with the outer surface of the armrest main body 10, and when it is open, one side 12a is flush with the bottom surface 11a of the notch space 11, and the other A lid body 12 having one side 12b facing the back elevational surface 11b of the notch space 11 is pivotally attached to the lid body 12 so as to be openable and closable. It is provided with opposing side plates 12c.

Since the present invention has the structure as described above, the lid body 1
2 is in the closed state, as shown in FIG.
1 is closed to maintain the appearance of the armrest body. When the lid body 12 is rotated 90 degrees and opened as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, one side 12b, which was flush with the top surface of the armrest body 10 in the closed state, becomes an upright wall, and the armrest One side 12a that was opposite to the rear vertical surface 11b of the main body 10
The inner surface of the notch space 11 becomes a bottom that is flush with the bottom surface 11a of the notch space 11, and the side plate 12c becomes a front and rear wall surface that is continuous with the front and rear vertical surfaces 11c of the notch space 11. A rectangular bottomed receptacle with surrounds on all sides is formed. A cup 14 (or other youth cans may be used) is inserted and held in this receiving portion as shown in the figure. still,
The space 11 can also be used for storing small items.

<Effects of the invention> As described above, according to the invention, an L-shaped cutout space is formed in a part of the armrest body fixed to the inner surface of the door, and the L-shaped notch space is opened across the upper surface and a surface perpendicular to the upper surface. and in this notch space, when the opening is closed, the opening is flush with the outer surface of the armrest main body, and when the opening is open, one side is flush with the bottom surface of the notch space, and the other side is is pivoted to open and close the lid body in a shape that faces the rear vertical plane of the notch space, and side plates are provided on both sides of the lid body parallel to and facing the front and rear vertical planes of the notch space. Therefore, when the lid is opened, the cutout space and the lid form a bottomed receiving part with surrounding walls on all sides, and a cup or the like can be stably held.
Moreover, since the cup and the like are held in the armrest on the inside of the vehicle, the cup and the like can be taken out and held at a position closest to the seated person, and can be easily handled without twisting the passenger's body.

In addition, since only one component, the lid, is attached to the armrest, it is easy to put into practical use and can be provided at low cost.
