Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an in-vehicle table, and more particularly to an in-vehicle table that can be easily attached to and detached from passenger cars, vans, camping cars, buses, and various other vehicles.

[0002]

[Prior art and its problems]

 In recent years, there has been an increasing number of opportunities to travel by passenger cars, vans, camper vans, buses, etc. in leisure time, and the opportunity to eat and drink in these cars has also increased. There is. These conventional vehicles may have a small and simple table in the driver's seat or the like, but in many cases, there is no table around the seat other than the driver's seat, and the vehicle may be running or Was very inconvenient when eating or eating in the car when stopped.

Of course, for large buses and the like, a table may be provided to the side of the seat or on the back of the front seat so that the table can be pulled out, but in the case of small passenger vehicles other than large buses, these The inconvenience mentioned above has not been solved because there is no room to fix the table. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and even a small passenger vehicle can be easily used as a meal or a table for eating and drinking in the vehicle as needed, and it is not possible. It is to provide an in-car table that can be easily removed if necessary and stored in the trunk.

[0004]

[Means for solving problems]

 The above object is achieved by the present invention described below. That is, the present invention is an in-vehicle table characterized by having a telescopic support column, at least one vertically movable table pedestal provided on the column, and a table hinged to the pedestal. .

[0005]

[Action]

 As shown in FIG. 1, the length of the pillar of the in-vehicle table of the present invention can be freely changed depending on the space between the floor and the ceiling in the vehicle. By extending the stanchion to a suitable length and contacting both ends of the stanchion with the ceiling and floor, the stanchion can be securely fixed to any car model and any place in the car. Further, the table provided on the supporting column can be freely rotated in the horizontal direction around the supporting column as required as shown by an arrow a in FIG. 1, and can be moved up and down as shown by an arrow b in FIG. Is. Therefore, the position of the table can be changed arbitrarily with the columns fixed, and it can be used freely by both children and adults. When it is no longer necessary to use it in the vehicle, it can be easily stored even in a narrow space such as the trunk of a vehicle by shortening and removing the column and folding the table as shown by the arrow c in Fig. 2a. .

【Example】

 The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings. An in-vehicle table of one embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 and an enlarged cross-sectional view of a part thereof is basically an extendable column A and at least one column A provided on the column A. It is characterized by having a table base B that can be vertically moved and horizontally rotated as required, and a table C that is hinged to the base B.

In the present embodiment, the column A includes a pipe 1 and a pipe 2 slidably fitted in the pipe 1, and the pipes 1 and 2 are not bent by some force. A plastic pipe, a metal pipe, or the like may be used, and the length of the pipe 1 may be about 600 to 100 mm, while the pipe 2 may have the same length. The pipes 1 and 2 fix and hold the column A in a stretched state by a fastener 3 having a thread groove (not shown) corresponding to the thread groove (not shown) provided at the upper end of the pipe 1 inside. You can

That is, the in-vehicle table is brought into the room, the lower end of the pipe 1 is placed on the floor, the fastener 3 is loosened, the pipe 2 is pulled out upward, and the tip of the pipe 3 is strongly pressed against the ceiling of the vehicle to fasten the fastener 3 By tightening the screw, the column A consisting of the pipe 1 and the pipe 2 can be firmly fixed to any place in the vehicle. In this case, the floor and ceiling inside the vehicle are not necessarily horizontal, and in order to prevent damage to the floor and ceiling and to prevent loosening of the pressure contact between the floor and ceiling, the lower end of pipe 1 and pipe 2 It is preferable to provide a cushion member 4 such as sponge or elastic rubber on the upper end portion. Although two round pipes are used as the support A in this embodiment, a square pipe may be used as long as it has the above-mentioned function, or another member having the same function may be used. .

The table pedestal B attached to the column A is a tubular body 5 coaxial with the pipe 1 and having an inner diameter larger than that of the pipe 1 in the present embodiment, as shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 2 a. A horizontal pedestal 6 extending in the horizontal direction is provided at the upper end of the tubular body 5, and an end of the table C is hinged to the pedestal 6 by a hinge 7. Further, the tubular body 5 is provided with a bolt hole 8 and a bolt 9 corresponding to the bolt hole and having a large head portion at the end portion so as to be well tightened by hand. By screwing the bolt 9 with the head of the bolt 9, it is possible to fix and hold the table pedestal B that moves up and down about the support A and horizontally rotates as needed at an arbitrary position. Of course, if necessary, the bolt 9 can be loosened to change the position of the table pedestal B to an arbitrary position and fixed at that position. In the present embodiment, the table pedestal B is made of the same plastic or metal as the pillar A, but other materials may be used. Further, although the bolts are used to fix the table pedestal B, it is a matter of course that any other fixing means may be used in the present invention as long as it has the above function.

As shown in FIG. 2A, the table C is hinged on the table pedestal B by the hinge 7 in the range from horizontal to vertical (arrow c) on the pedestal B, and can be folded upward. ing. In the present embodiment, a plastic plate having a thickness of about 2 mm was used as the table C. However, in the case of this plastic plate, the end portion which is not fixed may bend due to the own amount of the plate. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a reinforcing member 10 having a triangular shape or the like perpendicular to the surface of the table C is provided in the central portion of the lower surface of the table C, and when the table C is horizontal, The end of the table C is brought into contact with the end of the horizontal portion 6 of the pedestal B to prevent the table C from bending. Of course, when a material having no bending is used as the table C, the reinforcing body 10 is unnecessary. Further, the table C is provided with a hole 11 as shown so that the cup 12 and the like can be prevented from falling, and a wall portion is provided around the table, or unevenness is provided on the table surface to move the vehicle. It is also possible to prevent objects on the table from falling or rolling due to the vibration of time.

The example shown in FIG. 2b describes another embodiment of the table pedestal B, and two tables C may be provided on both sides of the table pedestal B as shown in FIG. 2b. Further, although not shown, for example, a magnet is provided at the tip of the table C so that the state can be maintained when the table C is vertically folded, while iron etc. The metal member may be fitted in, or other fixing means may be adopted. 3 and 4 are views for explaining another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the table C has an elliptical shape and is provided on one table pedestal B. Also in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the table C is foldable, and the table pedestal B allows the table C to move up and down around the support column A and horizontally rotate as necessary. Other configurations may be similar to those of the above-described embodiment. Of course, the size and shape of the table C are not limited to a rectangle or an ellipse, and other shapes may be used as long as they have the function of the table, and the left and right may not be symmetrical.
