JPS6021306Y2 - Luggage compartment cover device - Google Patents

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a luggage compartment cover device for a batch-back type automobile that has a luggage compartment behind the rear seat and a back door above the luggage compartment.

Conventionally, in batch-back type automobiles, a cover that doubles as a shelf covering the upper part of the luggage compartment behind the rear seats is divided into two parts in the front and rear directions, joined by a hinge, and can be opened and closed around this hinge. , for example, is known from Utility Model Application Publication No. 52-90838.

By the way, in this type of cover that also serves as a shelf board, the hinge joint portion is bent by the load when luggage is placed on the cover, impairing its flatness.

In order to prevent this deflection, the above-mentioned conventional device rivets a pair of rigid auxiliary metal fittings bent into a U-shape between the opposing rear end surface of the front board and the front end surface of the rear board. This structure prevents deflection by contact interference.

The requirements for this type of cover device are that it should have a simple structure, be lightweight, and be inexpensive, and that it should prevent the luggage placed on the cover from moving backwards when the car starts and suddenly colliding with the back door, etc. It is something to avoid.

The above-mentioned known structures do not fully satisfy this requirement.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cover device that fully satisfies the above-mentioned requirements.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In Fig. 1, 1 is an integrated cover according to the present invention, which has a luggage compartment behind the rear seat, and a back door 1 above the luggage compartment.
It is provided in a horizontal plane above the luggage compartment of an automobile having a vehicle.

The specific structure of the cover unit 1 will be explained with reference to FIG. 2.

The cover unit 1 is divided into a front board 3 and a rear board 4.

The rear end of the rear board 4 is a curved portion 1 that is curved upward.
0, and the front end thereof is bent downward from the general surface of the board to form a stepped flat portion 6b.

The rear end 6a of the front board 3 is superimposed on the stepped flat part 6b, and connected to the rear end 6a and the stepped flat part 6b so as to be bendable only upwardly, thereby forming a hinge. form 2.

Furthermore, a carpet 5 is provided on the entire upper surface of the front and rear boards 3 and 4.
A frame 8, which also serves as a reinforcing material and is rotatably supported on the inner wall of the vehicle body, is installed horizontally on the lower surface of the step plane portion 6b.

Incidentally, the reference numeral 9 indicates a contact plate that presses down the connecting cloth 7 bonded on the step plane portion 6b.

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned structure, in the horizontal plane state used as a cover for covering the upper part of the luggage compartment and a luggage rack, the rear end 6a of the front board 3 is connected to the rear board 4 as shown by the solid line in FIG. The front and rear boards 3.4 are superimposed in plane contact on the stepped plane portion 6b at the front end, and the front and rear boards 3.4 are unfolded on the same plane.

The load applied to the hinge part 2 by the luggage placed on the cover unit 1 is supported by the frame 8 installed horizontally on the overlapping surface of the rear end 6a and the step plane part 6b and the lower surface of the step plane part 6b, This prevents the hinge portion 2 from bending.

Further, the front board 3 can be pivoted upward using the connecting cloth 7 as a hinge, and by standing up the front board 3, it can be used as a sunshade for the head of a person sitting in the rear seat.

The rear board 4 can also be pivoted upward using the connecting cloth 7 as a hinge and the frame 8 as a pivot point, and is opened and closed when loading and unloading luggage from the luggage compartment.

Further, the upwardly curved portion 10 at the rear end of the rear board 4 serves as a stopper for the baggage on the cover 1 that moves rearward when the car suddenly starts or climbs on a steep slope when a load is placed on the cover 1. This prevents the luggage from suddenly colliding with the glass surface of the bank door.

As described above, according to the present invention, the hinge structure between the front board and the rear board constituting the integral cover is such that the front end of the rear board is a stepped flat part bent downward from the general surface of the board, and the front end of the rear board is bent downward from the general surface of the board. The rear end of the front board is overlapped by plane contact, and the upper surface of the rear end of the front board and the stepped flat part are connected by a connecting cloth, so the structure is extremely simple, lightweight, and inexpensive. Furthermore, this overlapping structure and the frame installed horizontally on the lower surface of the stepped plane prevent the hinge portion from being bent due to the load of the cargo placed on the cover unit, and ensure the flat state of the upper surface of the cover unit.

In addition, the upwardly curved portion at the rear end of the rear board prevents the problem of sudden collision of the luggage with the back door glass, etc. even if the luggage placed on the cover moves backwards due to a sudden start of the car, etc. have.
