Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) This invention relates to a portable cold storage container used for fishing or other leisure purposes.

(Prior Art and Problems) Conventionally, portable cold storage containers used for fishing and other leisure activities have a lid connected to the container by a hinge so that it can be opened and closed. By the way, in the case of cold containers for fishing, since the fish etc. that have been caught are directly stored,
The inside of the container is heavily soiled, so cleaning such as washing with water is always recommended after use. However, since the lid is integrally connected to the container via a hinge, it is difficult to clean the cold storage container and the cleaning work becomes complicated.

Therefore, recently, a detachable hinge is used to connect the container and the lid so that they can be opened and closed, and when cleaning the container, the hinge shaft of the hinge is pulled out and the hinge members are separated from each other, thereby separating the container and the lid. There is something like this.

However, in the case of a container with a separable hinge fixed to it as described above, the hinge shaft is completely separated from the hinge member, so not only is there a risk of losing the butterfly shaft, but also the two hinge members are mutually connected. There is a risk of damage if the butterfly shaft inserted across the shaft accidentally falls out.

(Technical problem to be solved by the invention) The technical problem to be solved by the invention is that even if the hinge that connects the container and the lid so that they can be opened and closed is separated, the container and the lid cannot be separated. To provide a container that does not cause the shaft to be lost or fall out.

(Technical means for solving the technical problem) The technical means taken by the present invention to solve the above problem is to install a hinge member having a joint on the side edge of the container and the lid so that the joints are aligned with each other. The hinge member is fitted and fixed as shown in FIG. A stopper is provided on the side of the hinge member to prevent the screw shaft from coming off after sliding to a position where both hinge members can be separated.

(Function) The container and the hinge member fixed to the lid are connected by a butterfly shaft, so that the lid opens and closes around the butterfly shaft, and the lid is separated by pulling the butterfly shaft outward by the finger hook. When the finger hook collides with a stopper provided on the container or the lid, the butterfly shaft is stopped from coming off, the hinge member is disconnected, and the lid can be separated. The butterfly shaft is engaged and held between a hinge member fixed to the container or the lid and a stopper.

(Embodiment) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. A portable cold storage container A includes a container 1, a lid 2, a hinge 3 that connects the lid 2 to the container 1 in an openable and closable manner, and Container 1 and lid 2 on the opposite side of hinge 3
It consists of a hook (not shown) that engages and disengages the edge of the handle.

The container 1 and the lid 2 are formed with a heat insulating structure in which a heat insulating material is filled between the inner and outer frames in order to maintain the cold insulation function, and hinges 3 are installed at intervals on the side edges of the container 1 and the lid 2. Two items have been secured.

The hinge 3 is composed of a first hinge member 4 attached to the container 1 side, a second hinge member 5 attached to the lid 2 side, and a hinge shaft 6 connecting both hinge members 4 and 5. 4 and the second hinge member 5 are formed of synthetic resin or metal material into a flat plate shape, and a butterfly shaft 6 is inserted into both sides of one side edge of the first hinge member 4 and the center of one side edge of the second hinge member 5. A connecting portion 8 having a through hole 8a formed therein and a connecting portion 9 having a through hole 9a formed therein are integrally formed.

Therefore, the connecting portion 9 of the second hinge member 5 is fitted between the left and right connecting portions 8 of the first hinge member 4 so that they are aligned in a straight line, and the butterfly By inserting the shaft 6, both hinge members 4 and 5 are rotatably connected.

The butterfly shaft 6 is connected to the connecting portions 8 and 9 of both hinge members 4 and 5.
The shaft rod has a diameter to be inserted into the through holes 8a, 9a drilled in The finger rest part 10 is extended and integrally bent, and a guide rod 13 is connected to the open end of the finger rest part 10.
is inserted into a guide hole 11 formed in the first hinge member 4 and protruding parallel to the rod portion inserted into the joint portions 8 and 9.

Furthermore, a stopper 12 is protrudingly provided on the outer surface of the container to which the first hinge member 4 is fixed, and is located on the side of the first hinge member 4, so that the finger hook part 10 of the butterfly shaft 6 that is pulled out will impact. It's starting to match.

The mounting position of the stopper 12 is such that the tip of the butterfly shaft 6 is closer to the through hole 9a of the joint 9 so that the second hinge member 5 fixed to the lid 5 can be separated from the first hinge member 4 on the container 1 side. When moved to a separate position, the finger rests 10 collide to prevent further movement, and the hinge shaft 6 is connected to the first hinge member 4 and the stopper 1.
2 to be engaged and held.

In the embodiment described above, the stopper 12 is provided on the container 1 side, but the stopper 12 may of course be provided on the lid 2 side. In that case, the hinge members 4, 5
The first one has a bifurcated connecting part 8 with the installation reversed.
The hinge member 4 shall be attached to the lid body 2 side.

(Effect of the invention) Since the portable cold storage container of the present invention is constructed as detailed above, it can be pulled out outward by hooking the finger on the finger hook formed at the side end of the butterfly shaft, and then attached to the container or lid. When brought into contact with the stopper, the tip of the butterfly shaft moves to a position where the hinge member fixed to the lid can be separated, and the lid can be separated from the container. This makes it possible to easily clean the inside of the container.

In addition, since the butterfly shaft engaged with the hinge member on the container or lid side is prevented from moving outward by the stopper, it is possible to reliably prevent the butterfly shaft from falling off and being lost, and the lid can be reliably assembled and connected. obtain. Furthermore, even if the butterfly shaft moves due to vibration while the lid is attached, the movement of the butterfly shaft is restricted by the stopper, so that it can be completely prevented from falling off.
