Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the interior of an automobile 1 to which a vehicle-mounted storage device according to the present invention is applied. In this figure, seat mounting portions 2 and 3 formed in an upwardly convex shape are provided at the front and rear of the floor of the automobile 1. Of these, the rear rear seat mounting portion 3 forms a space 6 with a floor configuration panel 5 disposed at an upper portion and having a substantially L-shaped cross section, for example, a floor upper panel, and a floor lower panel 4 disposed at a lower portion. Inside the space 6, a storage container such as a bucket 7 with a lid (hereinafter simply referred to as a bucket) is housed.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the rear seat mounting portion 3.
2 and 3 are sectional views taken along line AA in FIG.
The floor configuration panel 5 includes a rear seat mounting surface 8 disposed on an upper surface, a vertical wall surface 9 having a front end of the rear seat mounting surface 8 bent downward, and a flange 10 formed at a lower end of the vertical wall surface 9. The flange 10 is fixed to the floor lower panel 4 by conventional joining means such as spot welding. A substantially rectangular opening 11 is provided in the rear seat mounting surface 8 of the floor configuration panel 5, and a peripheral edge 12 of the opening 11 is formed as a step recessed downward. The step portion includes a substantially horizontal rear seat mounting surface 8, an inclined surface 13 inclined obliquely downward from the rear seat mounting surface 8 toward the opening 11, and a substantially horizontal storage container hook connected to the inclined surface 13. A stop surface 14 and an opening flange 1 formed by bending an end of the storage container holding surface 14 on the opening 11 side downward.
5. An opening corner 16 formed by the opening flange 15 and the storage container hooking surface 14
Is formed with sufficient curvature, so that the bucket 7
The guide is used for accommodating in the opening 11 and is positioned after being accommodated.

The bucket 7 normally constitutes a part of the floor construction panel 5 in a state where it is housed in the opening 11 of the floor construction panel 5. It can be taken out by itself. The bucket 7 includes a bucket body 17 and a lid 18. The bucket body 17 is a bottomed cylindrical body having an open upper surface, and has a four-sided shape such that the cross-sectional area gradually decreases downward. The side wall surface is inclined, and the bottom surface 19 is formed so as to reach the vicinity of the floor lower panel 4 in order to increase the capacity. The upper end of the bucket body 17 is a first flange 20 bent in an inverted U-shaped cross section,
The edge 21 abuts on the storage container hooking surface 14, and the bucket 7 is hooked on the floor configuration panel 5. Also, a first corner portion 22 is provided inside the upper end of the first flange 20.
Are formed. A handle 23 is rotatably supported on the first flange 20 of the bucket body 17, and the handle 7 can be lifted upward to take out the bucket 7.

As shown in FIG. 5, the lid 18 of the bucket 7 is provided with a plurality of concave portions 24 which are recessed downward, and ribs 25 projecting upward are formed between these concave portions 24. . Further, a peripheral portion 26 of the lid 18 is detachably mounted on the first flange 20 of the bucket body 17,
The peripheral portion 26 is composed of a vertical wall surface 28 substantially parallel to the side wall surface 27 of the bucket body 17 and a brim 29 with the upper end of the vertical wall surface 28 projecting outward. That is, the vertical wall surface 28 is inclined so as to gradually spread outward as it goes upward,
The degree of this inclination is substantially the same as the side wall surface 27 of the bucket body 17. As shown in FIG. 6, even when the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5 is directly closed by the lid 18, the second corner 30 of the lid 18 substantially matches the opening corner 16 of the floor configuration panel 5. As described above, the inclination angle of the vertical wall surface 28 of the lid 18 is appropriately determined. Further, as shown in FIG.
When the bucket body 17 is interposed, the upper surface 31 of the lid 18 is substantially flush with the rear seat mounting surface 8 of the floor configuration panel 5.

A procedure for using the storage device for a vehicle according to the present embodiment will be described. First, the rear seat is tilted forward to expose the bucket 7, the handle 23 is gripped and lifted upward, and the bucket 7 is removed from the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5.
Remove from Next, the rib 25 of the lid 18 of the bucket 7 is gripped, lifted upward to remove the lid 18, and the collar 29 of the lid 18 is placed on the storage container retaining surface 14 of the floor configuration panel 5, and the second corner After closing the opening 11 by making the portion 30 substantially coincide with the opening corner 16, the bucket body 1 is closed.
Take out the object from 7 and use it. After the use of the object is completed, the lid 18 is removed from the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5 to close the bucket body 17, the bucket 7 is stored in the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5, and the rear seat is returned. Note that it is also possible to store the small articles inside the bucket 7 by lowering the rear seat to the front side and removing only the lid 18 without taking out the bucket 7 from the floor configuration panel 5.

In the storage device of the present embodiment, since the bucket 7 is provided with the lid 18, when the bucket 7 is used, if the bucket 7 is taken out from the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5 with the lid 18 attached, small items can be obtained. Does not spill out of the bucket 7. Normally, the bucket 7 can be used as a small container with a lid by attaching and detaching only the lid 18 in a state where the bucket 7 is disposed in the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5. Further, since the opening flange 15 bent downward is provided in the peripheral portion 12 of the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5, the strength and rigidity of the opening 11 can be improved. Further, since the opening 11 of the floor configuration panel 5 is provided on the storage container hooking surface 14 which is one step lower than the rear seat mounting surface 8, the upper surface 3 of the lid 18 is in a state where the bucket 7 is fitted into the opening 11.
1 is substantially flush with the rear seat mounting surface 8 of the floor configuration panel 5, and when the rear seat is returned, the lower surface of the seat cushion of the rear seat is evenly contacted over substantially the entire surface, so that the fixed state of the rear seat is stable. I do.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and changes are possible based on the technical idea of the present invention. is there. For example, the opening 1 of the floor configuration panel 5
The shapes of the bucket 1 and the bucket 7 are not limited to those of the present embodiment,
Those formed in a circular shape and a cylindrical shape with a bottom respectively may be used.
