BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing a use state, and as shown in the figure, the accessory case 1 for an automobile according to the present invention is attached to a lever shaft 2a of a shift lever 2 which is erected from the floor of the automobile. To use.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the accessory case 1 for an automobile according to the present invention. The accessory case 1 for an automobile according to the present invention is shown in FIG.
Is composed of a container 3 having an upper opening, and a support member 4 rotatably connected to the bottom of the container 3.

The container 3 is made of synthetic resin, and has small articles T such as a mobile phone, glasses, a writing instrument, a cigarette, and a road ticket.
Can be stored.

One end of the support member 4 is a mounting portion 5 which can be removably mounted on the lever shaft 2a of the shift lever 2, and the other end of the support member 4 is rotatable on the container 3. Is a connecting portion 6 for connecting to.

FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the accessory case 1 for an automobile according to the present invention. The structure of the mounting portion 5 will be described in more detail with reference to this drawing.
A right arm part 5a integrally formed with the left arm part 5b, a left arm part 5b formed separately from the connection part 6, and a fastener for connecting the right arm part 5a and the left arm part 5b. The attachment is on the right arm 5a
And a rotary knob 5e in which a tightening screw 5C inserted through the left arm 5b and a nut 5d screwed into the tightening screw 5C are installed. Then, by rotating the rotary knob 5e, the lever shaft 2a of the shift lever 2 can be clamped by changing the distance between the right arm portion 5a and the left arm portion 5b. Right arm 5a and left arm 5b
Surfaces 5f and 5g of the shift lever 2 which are in contact with the lever shaft 2a are formed in a taper shape with a wide upper side so that even if the lower portion of the shift knob 2b has a bulge. The reference numeral 5h is a cover that covers the tip of the tightening screw 5C.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the accessory compartment for an automobile according to the present invention. The structure of the connecting portion 6 will be described in more detail with reference to this drawing. A single screw 6a is inserted upright, and the container 3 is horizontally rotatable about the screw 6a. still,
Reference numeral 6b is a nut installed in the support member 4 so as to be screwed into the screw 6a.

In the accessory case 1 for an automobile having the above-described structure, the rotary knob 5e is turned to rotate the lever shaft of the shift lever 2.
The support member 4 is attached to 2a for use. Shift lever 2
When is moved, the container 3 also moves accordingly, but since the container 3 is rotatable in the horizontal direction, it can be oriented in the optimum direction of the driver. Further, when used by a person in the passenger seat, it can be turned to the passenger side.

The container 3 has been described above with reference to the embodiment.
On the back side of the, the wide part 7a is in the center and the narrow part is on both sides.
A groove 7 having a width of 7b is formed, and a clip 8 having a large-diameter portion on the base end side that can pass through the wide portion 7a of the groove 7 but cannot pass through the narrow portion 7b can be detachably attached. Then, when the support member 4 is removed and the clip 8 is attached, the clip can be attached to the louver 9 of the discharge port of the air conditioner, which is convenient in that it can be used in two forms.

[0017]

The accessory compartment for an automobile according to the present invention can be arranged beside the shift lever 2 which can be easily reached by the driver or a person on the passenger side, so that the necessary accessory can be taken out immediately. In addition, since small items can be put in the container 3, it can be stored safely without being lost or damaged.

If the bottom of the container 3 and the support member 4 are rotatably connected to each other as described in claim 2, the support member 4 becomes an obstacle when taking out small items stored in the container 3. There will be no easy to use.

Further, as described in claim 3, the supporting member 4
If the mounting portion 5 of is composed of a holding mechanism portion that holds the lever shaft 2a of the shift lever 2 and a fastener that moves the holding mechanism portion so as to hold the lever shaft 2a, the shift can be performed easily and reliably. Since it can be attached to the lever shaft 2a of the lever 2, it becomes easier to use.
