Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a console box door for a motor vehicle that closes the top opening of the console box and opens upward as an end fulcrum.

(Prior Art) Passenger cars are well known in which a front seat is provided with an audio device, and a control switch provided at the rear of the front console box or the seat back is operated from the rear seat. It is also well known to insert and operate a tape recorder, telephone, etc. in the armrest of the rear seat.

[Issue 1i to be solved by the invention] However, in the former, although it is possible to control from the rear seat, it is not possible to change tapes, CDs, etc., and in the latter, it is difficult to install unless the vehicle is a large vehicle.

In view of these points, it is an object of the present invention to provide a console box door for a motor vehicle that stores a device that requires manual operation so that it can be used in both the front seat and the rear seat.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve this object, the present invention arranges the side intermediate position of the door body along the side of the top opening so that both the front and back sides of the door body are positioned on the front side in the closed position by inversion. A device that requires manual operation from the back of the door body, with the base of the arm hinged to a fulcrum position on the side so that the door body can be rotated from a closed position to a vertical open position. It is characterized by being configured as a storage section.

(Function) When the door body is in the closed position, it is reversed so that the device that requires manual operation, which is fixedly or selectively stored in the storage section on the back side, appears on the front side. This allows you to operate and view the devices on the back from the front seat.

The door body is positioned from the closed position to the vertical open position by rotation of the arm. Furthermore, in this state, the device stored in the storage section on the back side is also turned over so that it faces rearward, allowing the device to be viewed and operated from the rear seat.

Embodiment FIGS. 1 to 6 show a console pock store according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, lO is a console box store main body (hereinafter referred to as
The front surface 11 of the door (simply referred to as the door body) is formed as a pad for an elbow rest, and a television receiver 9 is built into the storage section on the back surface 12. An intermediate position between both sides of the door frame 13 of the door body 10 is reversibly hinged to the tip of an arm 16 by a bin 15, and its base is hinged to the upper side of the console box 1 by a bin 17. . The TV receiver 9 is attached by engaging a spring-biased ball attached to its side into a recessed portion of the door frame 13, or by snapping it into place.

Also, by reversing, the front surface 11 or the back surface 12 of the door body 10
As shown in FIG. 4, a retaining hole 21 is formed in the middle part of both arms 16 so that both arms 16 are positioned on the front side along the arm 16, and a retaining hole 21 is formed from the upper and lower ends of the door body 10. At approximately the h position there is a slidable bin 20 which is biased outwardly by a spring 24. When the bin 20 is engaged with the engagement hole 21, it is locked, and by engaging and disengaging from the engagement hole 21 along the roundness of the tip against the spring car, the other bin 20 can be moved to the inverted position. locked.

Lock pawls 3.3a are attached to the front and rear surfaces of the door body 10 to engage with the striker 2 provided at the front of the upper part of the console box 1, and are locked in the closed position shown in FIG. 3. This locking pawl, as shown in Figure 5,
It is attached to the front surface of the door body 10 so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction, is biased forward by a spring 5.5a, and is moved forward against the spring force by a knob 22 hinged on the front surface. It is designed to be detachable from the striker 2. A similar structure is symmetrically attached to the lock claw 3a.

The length of the arm 16 is set to be slightly longer than the sum of the half length of the door body IO plus the length of the lock claw 3.3a, and its rotation brings the door body 10 and opens it to the vertical position. As shown in FIG. 6, a cam 26 having a groove 25 is attached to the bottle 17.
7 locks the arm 16 in the vertical position. Then, the opposite end of the rotary mold 27 is connected to the lever 31 via the wire 30, and the knob portion 32 of the rotary mold 27 is rotated around the bin 33 by protruding laterally from the notch on the side surface of the console box l. It is designed to let you take it off.

The operation of the console box door configured in this way is as follows.

In the normal state shown in FIG. 3, surface 11 functions as an elbow rest. Then, pull the knob 22 backward to release the lock,
Push the lock claws 3.3a and attach the bins 20 on both sides to the engagement holes 21.
When the TV receiver 9 is exposed and can be viewed from the front seat, the TV receiver 9 can be viewed from the front seat.Furthermore, if you want to watch from the rear seat, you can rotate the arm 16 vertically and turn the rotating wind 27.
to lock it. In this state, TV reception from the rear seat IIt
9 can be viewed upright and operated.

It is also possible to incorporate electronic devices such as a telephone, CD set, radio cassette player, etc. into the back surface 12 of the door body 10, and the storage section does not have a fixed installation of a specific device, but can be an option or a user's choice. It is also possible to have a storage structure in which devices can be selectively attached. In addition, door body 1
0 in the closed position and the vertical open position may be a simple structure that utilizes frictional engagement between the arm and the console box or between the arm and the door.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the above-mentioned 1 console box door of the present invention, by making it reversible, the back side can also be used in the closed position, and it is also reversible even when opened to the vertical position, thereby improving visibility and operability from the rear seat. The equipment will also be stored in a way that improves performance. In other words, a storage section for electronic devices and the like can be realized that utilizes a small space so that it can be shared by both the front and rear seats.
