Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is particularly suitable for storing bottles, canned goods, etc. on the inner panel of the refrigerator door.Of the containers of at least two upper and lower stages, the lower container is suitable for storing objects on the higher and lower sides. This invention relates to a door shelf device that can be accommodated.

The present invention will be explained in detail based on the illustrated embodiments below.1
Reference numeral 1 indicates a refrigerator door that is pivotally supported on the refrigerator main body (not shown) so that it can be opened and closed freely, 2 indicates bank portions formed on the left and right sides of the inner door plate 3 of this refrigerator door 1, and 4 indicates the inner door plate 3 and the outer door plate 5. This is an insulating material filled between the

Reference numeral 6 denotes an upper container molded from plastic such as ABS resin for accommodating bottles, canned goods, etc. which are detachably locked between the bank parts 2, 2.

This upper storage container 6 is divided into two chambers by a partition wall 7, and as shown in FIG. The bottom surface is constituted by a lid body 9 that can be opened and closed.

A bearing 10 that is fitted into the shaft 8 is formed at the front of the lid 9, and a U-shaped handle 11 is formed at the center of the rear for opening and closing the lid 9. There is.

Further, a knob 13 made of plastic such as ABS resin is disposed on the rear wall 12 of the upper container 6 to support the lid 9.

As shown in FIG. 4, this knob 13 has a mounting step 14 that supports and places the lid 9 over its entire width, and its upper surface abuts against the lower end of the rear wall 12 of the upper container 6, and can only rotate upward. A shaft portion 15 integrally molded at both ends and positioned so that
, 16, and an inclined portion 17 is provided on the end surface of one shaft portion 16.
is provided.

Reference numeral 18 and 19 denote a bearing portion integrally formed on the rear wall 12 of the upper container 6, which rotatably supports the knob 13, as shown in FIG. One bearing portion 19 has an inclined groove portion 20 corresponding to the inclined portion 17 formed on the shaft portion 16 .

Similarly to the upper container 6, a lower container 21 is secured between the bank portions 2, 2, and is located below the upper container 6.

Next, the operation will be explained. Normally, the lid body 9 is locked onto the stage 14 of the knob 13 as shown in FIG. 6, and functions as a small item shelf suitable for storing small items such as canned goods. Figure 8,
As shown in FIG. 9, when the knob 13 is rotated upward with a finger or the like from the handle portion 11 formed at the center of the lid 9, the lid 9 disengages from the knob 13 and the upper container 6 It rotates downward under its own weight around the shaft 8, and its open end abuts the front wall of the lower storage container 21 to form an inclined surface, so it can be used to store relatively tall beer bottles, etc., as shown in Fig. 7. Items can be stored easily.

Further, the knob 13 is configured to return to its home position by its own weight if external force from a finger or the like is removed.

Further, a bearing portion 18 in which the knob 13 is formed in the upper container 6.
19, the flexibility of plastic or the like is used, and the inclined portion 17 and inclined groove portion 20 are provided on one shaft portion 16 and bearing portion 19, respectively.
One bearing part 1 formed in the upper container 6 as shown in FIG.
This can be easily fitted by inserting one shaft portion 15 of the knob 13 into the shaft portion 8 and pressing the inclined portion 17 of the other shaft portion 16 in correspondence with the inclined groove portion 20 of the bearing portion 19.

That is, according to this invention, the bottom surface of the upper container of the two upper and lower containers provided on the inner panel of the door can be easily rotated downward.
It can accommodate tall items such as beer bottles, and the bearing part 19
Since the shaft part 16 integrally molded with the knob 13 is guided by the inclined groove part 20 formed in the slanted groove part 20, it can be easily fitted into the shaft part 16. Therefore, there is little play in the fitting between the bearing parts 18 and 19 and the knob 13, so that it is difficult to come off. It is something that you have.
