Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a device for storing an umbrella in a vehicle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 10 of Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 60-75150, a ring-shaped umbrella receiver is attached to a door of an automobile, the umbrella receiver is rotated upward, and the umbrella is inserted from above. BACKGROUND ART Umbrella storage devices for vehicles that are stored in an upright state are known.

[0003]

In the above prior art,
The umbrella holder can only be rotated in the vertical direction.When storing the umbrella, you have to insert it from above, and if you keep the door closed, the upper end of the umbrella will contact the roof of the car. I can't insert the umbrella into the umbrella holder. There has been a problem that the operation of putting the umbrella in and out of the umbrella receiver is troublesome because the door has to be opened and the umbrella has to be positioned outside the car and inserted from above.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems. A part of the frame can be opened and closed laterally, and the umbrella can be taken in and out vertically and laterally. It is characterized by being attached to the vehicle body.

[0005]

1 to 3 show a first embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes a ring-shaped umbrella receiver, which is divided into two parts. A universal ball joint 2 is attached to the base of one of the divided rings 1a, and the universal ball joint 2 is attached to a mounting seat 4 fixed to a door 3 with double-sided tape or the like. The other split ring 1b is pivotally mounted so that it can be opened and closed horizontally with the shaft 5 of the base of the split ring 1a as a fulcrum. The tip ends of the split rings 1a and 1b can be fitted to each other by projections and depressions. Reference numeral 6 denotes an umbrella pedestal which is positioned below the ring-shaped umbrella receiver 1 and fixed to the door 3. The split ring 1b is always biased in the closing direction by a spring.

During use, the ring-shaped umbrella receiver 1 is horizontally rotated, one split ring 1b is opened horizontally with the shaft 5 as a fulcrum, and the umbrella 7 is laterally opened from the gap between the split ring 1b and the other split ring. 1, the opened split ring 1b is closed, and the tip ends of the split ring 1a and the split ring 1b are fitted into concave and convex to form a ring shape, and the lower end of the umbrella 7 is placed on the umbrella support 6.
When taking out the umbrella, hold the umbrella and abut the split ring 1b,
Push it outwards to open the split ring 1b and remove it from the gap. The split ring 1b is closed by a spring.

Further, while the ring-shaped umbrella receiver 1 is closed, it is rotated laterally from the universal ball joint 2, and the umbrella 7 is inserted into the closed ring-shaped umbrella receiver 1 from the obliquely upward direction. May be held horizontally.

4 to 6 show a second embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 10 is a substantially U-shaped frame member, and a corner portion 11a of an L-shaped frame member 11 is pivotally attached to one end 10a thereof so as to be horizontally rotatable around a shaft 12 as a fulcrum, and a tip 1 of an outer rod 11b of the L-shaped frame member.
1c and the free end 10b of the substantially U-shaped frame member are fitted in a concavo-convex shape to form a rectangular frame 13. Substantially U-shaped frame member 10
A universal ball joint 14 is attached to one piece 10c of the above, and the universal ball joint 14 is attached to a mounting seat 15 fixed to the door with double-sided tape or the like.

In use, the substantially U-shaped frame member 10 is horizontally rotated by the universal ball joint 14 as shown in FIG. 6, the L-shaped frame member 11 is opened, and the umbrella is inserted through the gap. The other rod 11d is pushed to close the L-shaped frame member 11 as shown in FIG. At this time, the tip 11c of the outer rod 11b of the L-shaped frame member 11 and the substantially U-shaped frame member 10
And the free end 10b is fitted in a concave-convex shape.

Further, the quadrangular frame 13 is turned sideways by the universal ball joint 14, the umbrella is inserted into the closed quadrangular frame 13 from the diagonally upper side, and the quadrangular frame 13 is horizontally turned by the universal ball joint 14. You may keep it.

[0011]

According to the present invention, a part of the frame body can be opened and closed laterally and the frame body is attached to the vehicle body so that the umbrella can be taken in and out from the vertical direction and the lateral direction. Since the body can be opened or the universal ball joint that can be rotated can be oriented in any direction of the user, it is possible to insert the umbrella inside the frame with the frame body obliquely sideways, so it is necessary to open the door for storage It is convenient without
