Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a mounting mechanism for a glove box that is incorporated into the passenger seat side of the front instrument panel of an automobile.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 6, a glove box 3 is formed on the front passenger seat side of a front instrument panel 2 of an automobile 1, and a lid 4 is screwed into an opening 3A of the glove box 3.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

In the conventional structure described above, when attempting to increase the storage capacity by increasing the depth of the glove box, it was difficult to reach the depth of the glove box with the hand, and it was also difficult to visually see the depth of the glove box, which was inconvenient.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention provides a glove box 11 in the storage recess 12 as a means for solving the above conventional problems.
The glove box 11 has upper and lower fitting pins 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11A, 11B, 11C, and
1D, and the storage recess 12 is bottomless, with guide grooves 15, 16, 17, 18 on the upper and lower sides of both side plates 13, 14 into which the fitting pins 11A, 11B, 11C, 11D of the glove box 11 are fitted. are provided, and the upper guide grooves 15, 17 are connected to the arcuate portions 15A, 17 on the back side.
A, outer straight portions 15B, 17B, and outermost key hand portions 15C, 17C, and lower guide grooves 16, 18 are made from straight portions 16A, 18A and outermost key hand portions 16B, 18B. The straight portions 15B, 17B of the upper guide grooves 15, 17 and the straight portions 16A, 18A of the lower guide grooves 16, 18.
and have substantially the same length, and the upper guide groove 1
The arcuate portions 15A, 17A of the lower guide grooves 16, 18 and the straight portions 16A, 18A of the lower guide grooves 16, 18 provide glove box attachment mechanisms in corresponding positions.

[Effect]

In the stored state in which the glove box is completely stored in the storage recess, when the glove box is rotated downward about the lower fitting pin of the glove box as the center of rotation, the glove box is opened in the stored state. At this time, the upper fitting pin of the glove box slides on the circular arc portion of the upper guide groove of both side plates of the storage recess. When the glove box is pulled out from the open state in which it is stored in the upper part, the glove box is brought into the open state in the pulled out state. At this time, the upper and lower fitting pins of the glove box slide on the straight portions of the upper and lower guide grooves on both sides of the storage recess and are locked by the hand portion of the key. The glove box can be removed from the storage recess by lifting the glove box up by the height of the key hand and pulling it toward you.

[Effect of idea]

Therefore, in the present invention, when putting things in or out from the front side of the glove box, the glove box is opened in the stored state as described above, and if the glove box is opened in the pulled out state, it is possible to put things in the back side of the glove box. It is easy to put in and take out the glove box, and it is also easy to visually see the inside of the glove box. In this way, even if the depth of the glove box is increased in order to increase the storage capacity of the glove box, it is possible to take things in and out without any problem.

〔Example〕

The present invention will be explained with reference to an embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 5. Car instrument panel 1
A storage recess 12 for a glove box 11 is provided on the passenger seat side of the vehicle. The storage recess 12 is bottomless, and side plates 13 and 14 are arranged on both sides, and guide grooves 15 and 1 are formed in the side plates 13 and 14 on the upper and lower sides.
6, 17, and 18 are formed. Above guide groove 1
Arc portions 15A, 17A are formed on the inner side of the arc portions 5, 17, and straight portions 15B, 17B are connected outwardly from the arc portions 15A, 17A.
Further, key hand portions 15C, 17C are provided at the outermost portions of the linear portions 15B, 17B. The lower guide grooves 16, 18 are composed of straight portions 16A, 18A and key hand portions 16B, 18B provided at the outermost sides of the straight portions 16A, 18A.
6A, 18A are provided directly below corresponding to the arcuate portions 15A, 17A of the upper guide grooves 15, 17, and the straight portions 16A, 18A are longer than the straight portions 15B, 17B of the upper guide grooves 15, 17. are being equalized. On the other hand, on the back side of both sides of the glove box 11, upper and lower fitting pins 11A, 11B are provided.
11C, 11D are provided, and the fitting pins 11A,
11B, 11C, 11D are the upper and lower guide grooves 15, 16, 17, 1 of the side plates 13, 14 of the storage recess 12.
8, the glove box 11 is attached to the storage recess 12.

In the above configuration, when the fitting pins 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11D of the glove box 11 are positioned at the innermost parts of the guide grooves 15, 16, 17, and 18, the glove box 1 is positioned as shown in FIG.
1 is completely stored in the storage recess 12 and is fixed in the closed state by the lock 19.
When the lock 19 is released from this state and the glove box 11 is rotated downward about the lower fitting pins 11B, 11D, the upper fitting pins 11A, 11C are rotated in the circles of the upper guide grooves 15, 17. By sliding the arc portions 15A and 17A, the glove box 11 is placed in the open state while being stored in the storage recess 12, as shown in FIG. Next, when the glove box 11 is pulled toward you from this state, the fitting pins 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11D move into the straight portions 15B and 1 of the upper and lower guide grooves 15, 16, 17, and 18.
6A, 17B, and 18A, the glove box 11 is pulled out and opened as shown in FIG. At this time, the fitting pins 11A, 11B,
11C, 11D are key hand parts 15C, 16B, 1
It is locked at 7C and 18B to prevent it from falling off. At this time, since the glove box 11 has a large opening, it is easy to take things in and out, and it is also easy to check the contents. Furthermore, glove box 11
If you lift the key hand portions 15C, 16B, 17C, and 18B upwards and pull them toward you, the fitting pins 11A, 11B, 11C, and 11D will be in the guide groove 1.
5, 16, 17 and 18, the glove box 11 can be removed as shown in FIG.
