[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an improvement of a truck tool box that is mounted on a truck frame to store in-vehicle tools, accessories, and small items.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 With the development of automobiles, various types of trucks, which have become the mainstream of land transportation, have been developed depending on the purpose of use and the difference in load capacity. From small trucks to large trucks, the maximum loading capacity can reach 12 tons. Although the basic structure of trucks is not very different from that of passenger cars, diesel engines are used for medium-sized and larger vehicles, and some engines have a displacement of 20,000 cc for large-sized vehicles because the engine mainly aims to reduce fuel consumption. On the other hand, in addition to higher output due to increased displacement, it is widely adopted for turbocharging, achieving both fuel economy during empty vehicle operation and high output required for cargo loading. Many transmissions have 5 to 6 gears, and some have 10 gears in order to obtain a large driving force at low speeds and to cope with high speeds. Generally, the frame is a ladder frame in which two horizontal members are joined to several horizontal members by rivets or welding. For each member, hot-rolled steel sheets for automobiles are often press-formed. Has been. Since the driver's seat and the loading platform are individually attached to the frame, various types of loading platforms can be freely mounted.

The types of trucks currently used for land transportation can be classified according to different shapes and different loading platforms. Among these, according to the shape of the truck, 6 types of bonnet truck, cabover truck, van, panel van, light van, and pick-up are classified by JIS. Among these, the bonnet truck has a bonnet at the front. It is said to be the prototype of the truck that the engine has and is located inside the hood in front of the driver's seat, but it is rarely used recently and instead, the engine is installed under the driver's seat. As a result, cab-over trucks are becoming the mainstream because they eliminate the overhang of the engine room, increase the loading capacity, and improve the forward visibility of the driver's seat. On the other hand, according to the type of loading platform, the side plates (orbiting plates) around the loading platform can be opened and closed on both sides and rear, three-way opening type, only the opening and closing plate at the rear of the loading platform can be opened and closed. There is a platform type that is suitable for transporting things. In addition, a dump truck (so-called dump truck) that can tilt the entire platform by hydraulic pressure, a tank truck with a dedicated tank for transporting large amounts of liquids such as oil and chemicals, and soft drinks and alcohol are efficiently transported. There are bottle trucks that are equipped with shelves and are used to carry large quantities of cases, and there are trailer trucks that are suitable for efficiently carrying large amounts of cargo or for carrying long or heavy objects.

As described above, a truck has a cab (driver's cab), an engine, a transmission, an exhaust pipe, a silencer, a propeller shaft, a differential gear, front and rear wheel axles, a suspension, a steering system, a brake system, a fuel tank. As a basic structure with a frame equipped with electrical parts, various cargo beds are mounted on this frame by the manufacturer or the user. Therefore, the truck has a basic structure as a vehicle with the cab and frame not equipped with a loading platform, and is also capable of general driving. Therefore, unlike a passenger car, a truck does not have a dedicated trunk room, spare tires are directly attached to the frame, and tools, jacks, and equipment such as tow ropes are stored in a special tool box attached to the frame. Are using. This tool box is a storage box with a lid that is usually attached to the side of the frame of a truck, so that the equipment stored inside can be dropped during traveling or locked to prevent theft during parking. Has become. In addition, wood and metal were the mainstream materials, and recently, special FRP products with strong weather resistance, durability, and impact resistance have already been developed.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the truck tool box is a box for storing emergency equipment such as tools, jacks, ropes, etc., like the passenger compartment of a passenger car. Therefore, when trying to remove tools from the tool box, the conventional tool box for trucks does not have lighting means inside, so either illuminate the inside of the tool box with a flashlight or take out the necessary tools, or There was a problem that the efficiency of work in an emergency deteriorates because it is necessary to take out the installed tools once to a place with lighting or to the driver's seat and select the necessary tools. Another problem was that it was not possible to visually confirm how the equipment was stored in the tool box. Therefore, the present invention was made in order to solve such a problem.Therefore, when troubles occur during nighttime freight operation and tools of the tool box are needed, the equipment of the tool box is installed. The objective is to provide a tool box for trucks that allows not only easy confirmation but also the necessary tools to be taken out accurately and promptly.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention, which is made to achieve the above object, is a tool box to be mounted on a frame of a truck, the box having an opening, and the opening of the box having a plurality of hinge members. A tool box for a truck, comprising a lid body that is openably and closably attached, and a plurality of engaging and detachable engaging members that are attached across the opening and closing side of the lid body and the vicinity of the opening of the box body. And a lid interlocking switch member for lighting or extinguishing the lamp member depending on whether the lid member is opened or closed. Its main feature is a tool box for trucks.

[0007]

[Action]

 According to the tool box for a truck of the present invention, first, all the engaging members of the box body are removed. Next, the lid that closes the opening of the box is opened. Then, the opening of the box is opened and the inside of the box is exposed. At this time, the lid interlocking switch member attached to the inside of the box is turned on and the inside of the box is moved to the predetermined position. Supply voltage to one or more lamp components attached to the. By this action, the inside of the box is illuminated in conjunction with the opening of the lid.
