Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a footwear storage device provided at the front of the base of an automobile seat.

[Prior Art] In order to alleviate foot fatigue caused by riding for long periods of time, people take off their shoes when riding and lie barefoot to rest their feet, or they use shoes instead of shoes. You may want to change to footwear that does not put pressure on you.

Conventionally, a mat with a shoe removable shoe has been proposed that eliminates the need for a container for storing footwear when lying on the feet (in 1983).
−18032). The front part of this mat consists of a leg part, the front part of the hand is a slip-off part, a raised or looped carpet is removably inserted into the front part, and several drainage protrusions are provided on the front part of the hand. It is being

However, the mat with the shoe removable mat has a problem in that the position of the seated person's feet is restricted because when the foot is pulled slightly forward, the foot hits the shoe placed in front of the foot. Furthermore, since there is no special fixing means, there is a drawback that the shoes tend to move from the front part of the hand when braking suddenly.

In order to improve this point, the present applicant has installed a floor panel that forms the cab floor of a truck with a step between the lower side of the floor panel and the lower side of both ends of this floor panel so that passengers can board inside the cab. proposed a truck body structure in which a box body for storing things was provided in the cab space formed between the upper side of the step plate and the upper side of the step plate (Utility Model Publication No. 59-53145). This conventional car body structure makes effective use of the cab space that is usually vacant, so even if the number of passengers increases, shoes can be stored, and shoes do not fly out even when braking suddenly. It has the great advantage of keeping the inside of your car clean.

However, because the box provided in conventional car body structures is located far from the seats, it is not possible to change footwear and put them in the box while seated, or to take shoes out of the box while seated. However, there was a problem in that the new footwear could not be stored or taken out quickly.

Conventionally, as an improvement on this point, a sorting box that utilizes the space under the seats of automobiles, etc., has been disclosed (Utility Model Publication No. 58-170242). This sorting box has a small light bulb attached to the front plate to illuminate the inside of the box, wheels are arranged on the bottom plate, and an elastic material is interposed between the rear plate and the seat frame. When the organizer is pulled out in front of the seat, a small light bulb is automatically turned on, and when the organizer is automatically returned to its original position due to the elastic force of the elastic material, the light bulb is turned off.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, when shoes with mud or water attached to them are stored in the sorting box, there is a problem that the sorting box is difficult to clean and the inside of the box gets dirty and easily corrodes. Ta.

Further, there is a problem in that the above-mentioned organizing box cannot be used in a driver's seat in which a device for adjusting the driving position forward and backward or up and down is installed under the seat.

The purpose of this invention is that it can be installed even if there is no space under the seat, and that footwear can be quickly stored or taken out by changing shoes while seated, and the frequency of touching the feet of the seated person is reduced. To provide a footwear storage device capable of keeping the inside of a car clean without restricting the position of foot placement.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The configuration of the present invention for achieving the above object will be explained using FIGS. 1 and 2, which correspond to embodiments.

The footwear storage device of the present invention includes a base 12 that is placed on the floor surface 14 of an automobile and fixes the seat 10, and a heel portion of the footwear S that is attached to the front part of the base 12 so as to protrude horizontally in the vehicle width direction. A horizontal rod 1 having a height h such that the tip of the footwear S reaches the floor surface 14 when
3, a first protrusion 16 which is provided in the vehicle width direction on the floor surface 14 below the front of the horizontal rod 13 and comes into contact with the tip of the footwear S whose heel part is hung on the horizontal rod 13, and the base 1.
On the floor surface 14 between the protruding strips 16 and 2, there are provided spaces t that extend from the protruding stripes 16 to the base ends of the base 12, surround the front part of the base 12, and allow at least one pair of footwear S to be arranged side by side. The second and third protrusions 17 and 18 are provided.

[Operation] When putting down the footwear S, the user takes off the footwear S while remaining seated on the seat 10, hangs the heel part on the horizontal rod 13, and brings the tip of the footwear S into contact with the first protrusion 16. As a result, the footwear S is placed at an angle and is fixed by the horizontal rods 13 and the first protrusions 16 of the footwear S during running, so that the feet of the seated person are less likely to touch the footwear S.
Furthermore, even if mud or water adheres to the footwear S, the protrusions 16,
17 and 18 can prevent leakage into the vehicle.

[Example] Next, an example of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a driver's seat 10 of an automobile is fixed via a rail 11 to a seat leg 12, which is a base placed on a floor surface 14. As shown in FIGS. A horizontal rod 13 is attached to the front part of the seat leg 12 so as to protrude horizontally in the vehicle width direction. horizontal rod 13
has a height h such that the tip of the footwear S reaches the floor surface 14 when the heel portion of the footwear S is hung. In this example, the horizontal rods 13 are U-shaped pipes, and are installed at both ends of the front portion of the seat legs 12.

A floor mat 15 is installed on the floor surface 14 below the front of the horizontal rod 13. A first protrusion 16 is formed on the floor mat 15 in the vehicle width direction. This ridge 16 is formed by bending the floor mat 15 and performing high frequency welding. This ridge 16
As shown in FIG. 1, is provided at a position where the tip of the footwear S, the heel of which is hung on the horizontal rod 13, comes into contact.

In addition, the floor surface 1 between the seat leg 12 and the protrusion 16
Second and third protrusions 17 and 18, which are perpendicular to the first protrusion 16, are provided on the floor mat 15 on the floor mat 4 by high-frequency welding in the same way as the first protrusion 16. Second and third protrusions 17, 18
extend from the first protrusions 16 to the base end of the base 12, surround the front part of the base 12, and are provided at intervals t such that at least one pair of footwear S can be arranged side by side.

In the footwear storage device having such a configuration, the first protrusion 16 is located behind the driver's heel in the driver's normal driving posture as shown in FIG. It occurs infrequently and does not pose any particular problem in terms of driving operation.

By placing footwear (not shown) that does not put pressure on the foot in this footwear storage device, for example, sandal-like footwear equipped with a band that hooks onto the heel of the foot, the driver can use the footwear while sitting in the driver's seat 10. After taking out the sandal-like footwear onto the floor mat 15, the user can take off the shoes S that he has been wearing and replace them with the sandal-like footwear. Hang the heel part of the shoe S you took off on the horizontal rod 13, and attach the tip to the first protrusion 1
6, the shoes S are placed at an angle and the space in the front and back direction can be reduced. While running, the shoes S are fixed by the horizontal rods 13 and the first protrusions 16, and their positions do not shift even during sudden braking. Also, even if mud or water adheres to the shoes S, the protrusions 16, 17, 1
8 acts as a bank, preventing mud and water from flowing into the car. When the driver finishes driving and exits the vehicle, the driver takes out the shoes S from the footwear storage device in the reverse order as described above, takes off the sandal-like footwear, and replaces the shoes.

The footwear storage device of the present invention is installed in a small space in front of the base 12 at the bottom of the driver's seat 10, so it is within reach if the driver extends his hand.
The above operations can be performed while remaining seated.

In addition, in the above example, the floor mat 1 on the floor surface 14
5 is partially bent and the protrusions 16, 17, 18 are provided by high frequency welding, but the protrusions 16, 17, 18 may be provided directly on the floor surface 14.

Further, the horizontal rod 13 is not limited to a pipe, but may be a rod-shaped body.

Furthermore, if the rain shoes are placed in the footwear storage device in advance, it will be convenient even when the user gets off the car during unexpected rain.

Furthermore, the seat is not limited to the driver's seat, but may also be an assistant seat provided with seat legs or a rear seat provided with a base to which this type of horizontal rod can be attached.

[Effects of the invention] As described above, the footwear storage device of the invention is installed using the idle space in front of the seat base, a horizontal rod is attached to the seat base, and the footwear storage device of the present invention is installed on the floor surface below the horizontal rod. By providing a protruding strip that surrounds the front of the seat base, regardless of the number of passengers on board, it is possible to change footwear while seated, store or take out footwear easily and quickly, and at the same time, the interior of the vehicle can be Can be kept clean.

In particular, in order to store footwear in an inclined position, unlike conventional organizing boxes, it can be installed even if there is no space under the seat, and unlike conventional mats with removable shoes, it can be moved even during sudden braking. This has the advantage that the feet of the seated person are less likely to touch each other, and the position of the feet of the seated person is not restricted.
