Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an umbrella case that is applied to automobiles such as passenger cars.

[Conventional technology]

Traditionally, passenger cars have not been equipped with umbrella holders to prevent the inside of the vehicle from being trapped, and for this reason, bringing a wet umbrella into the vehicle during rainy weather may wet the clothes of the driver or other passengers, or the umbrella may get stuck inside the vehicle. The drawback was that it would get dirty if it fell on the floor.

In recent years, various umbrella holders for automobiles have been devised that can be easily installed and removed inside the vehicle.
Those described in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No.-15169, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 55-98273, or Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 55-147940 are known.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, since all of these devices are supposed to be removed when not in use, they require work to be installed each time they are used.Therefore, the above-mentioned conventional devices have the problem of being cumbersome each time they are used.

The object of the present invention is to provide an umbrella case for automobiles that solves the above-mentioned problems.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has the following means. In other words, the mouth ring is rotatably attached to the mounting ring fixed to the inner surface of the door or the interior of the vehicle interior, and the mouth ring has a mounting ring fixed to the inner surface of the door or the interior of the vehicle interior so as to be rotatable toward the interior of the vehicle. The opening end of the extendable umbrella insertion tube, which is stored in the recess and extends and hangs down into the passenger compartment during use, is fixed to the opening end, and the opening ring is provided with a lid plate that covers the umbrella insertion tube when it is stored. It is pivoted so that it can be opened and closed.

[Effect]

Since the present invention has the above-mentioned means, the umbrella insertion tube is shortened when not in use, stored in a recess formed on the inner surface of the door or the inner surface of the passenger compartment, and covered with a cover plate, and extended when not in use. By hanging the umbrella inside the vehicle and putting it there, it does not interfere with the passengers getting on and off the vehicle, and the wet umbrella does not wet the clothes of the passengers and the water dripping from the umbrella does not stain the interior of the vehicle.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be explained based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

The illustrated embodiment shows an example in which an umbrella case 2 of the present invention is attached to the inner surface of a door 1 of a passenger car. It is composed of a plate 8 and the like.

The mounting ring 3 has a flange portion 3a outwardly at one end of the annular body, and this flange portion 3a is attached to the door 1.
By fixing vertically to the inner surface of the door 1 with screws, the mounting ring 3 is fitted in a recess 1a formed in the inner wall of the door 1. The mouth ring 4 is rotatable with respect to the mounting ring 3 via a horizontal pivot 5 so that the mouth ring 4 rotates 90 degrees toward the passenger compartment at the lower position of the flange 3a of the mounting ring and projects horizontally. It is pivoted to.

The mouth ring 4 has an engaging protrusion 4 on its outer peripheral surface.
a is formed, and this protrusion 4a engages with the engagement recess 3b provided on the inner circumferential surface of the attachment ring 3, and is fitted and held in the attachment ring 3. Also, when the mouth ring 4 is pulled strongly, the engagement is released. It is designed to come off and rotate toward the passenger compartment, but when the mouth ring 4 becomes horizontal,
Projection 4 of mouth ring 4 into which pivot 5 is fitted
b comes into contact with the end face of the flange portion 3a of the mounting ring 3, and rotation of more than 90 degrees is prevented.

The opening end of an umbrella insertion tube 6 is fixed to the mouth ring 4, and the umbrella insertion tube 6 is made of a flexible material and is integrally attached to the lower end of the serpentine telescopic trunk 6a. A bottom 6b is formed, and the expandable trunk 6a is housed in the recess 1a by being formed to become smaller from the open end toward the bottom.

The mouth ring 4 has a horizontal pivot 7 located at a position deviated toward the interior of the vehicle from its pivot point to the mounting ring 3, which allows the cover plate 8 to rotate 180 degrees toward the interior of the vehicle. A short cylindrical portion 8a is formed on the cover plate 8, and an engagement recess 8b provided in the short cylindrical portion 8a connects to an engagement convex portion provided on the inner circumferential surface of the mouth ring 4. 4c, the lid plate 8 is fitted and held in the mouth ring 4, and when the lid plate 8 is pulled strongly, the engagement is released. A knob 8c is integrally formed on the inside surface of the vehicle. Although not shown, the cover plate 8 has a diameter of 180 mm.
It is preferable that the opening be rotated once and held in the open state by an appropriate means such as elastic holding.

When the automobile umbrella case configured as described above is not in use, the opening ring 4 is fitted and held in the mounting ring 3, and the shortened umbrella insertion tube 6 is stored in the recess 1a on the inner surface of the door 1. Then, the short cylindrical portion 8a of the lid plate 8 is fitted into the mouth ring 4, held and closed, and the lid plate 8 covers the mouth ring 4 and the umbrella insertion cylinder 6. In this case, when the rigidity of the umbrella insertion tube 6 is small, it is preferable to provide an appropriate cylindrical body that covers the umbrella insertion tube 6 in the shortened state, either integrally with the mounting ring 3 or separately.

To change the above-mentioned unused state to a used state, the cover plate 8 and the mouth ring 4 are rotated clockwise in FIG. At the same time, make the lid plate 8 vertical, and then flip the umbrella insertion tube 6 downward.
It is extended and hangs from the mouth ring 4. In this state of use, by inserting the umbrella into the umbrella insertion tube 6 from the mouth ring 4 protruding from the inner surface of the door 1,
Even if this leaks, the clothes of passengers such as the driver will not get wet, and the umbrella will also be prevented from falling onto the floor of the vehicle and getting dirty.

To return from the used state to the unused state, shorten the umbrella insertion tube 6 from which the umbrella has been removed, drain the water accumulated at the bottom into a suitable container as necessary, and remove the mouth ring 4. By fitting and holding the cover plate 8 into the mounting ring 3 and fitting and holding the cover plate 8 into the mounting ring 4, the above-mentioned unused state is achieved.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, a case was described in which the mounting ring was fixed to the inner surface of the door, but in the present invention, the mounting ring is fixed to the inner wall surface of a component of the vehicle interior, such as the inner wall surface of the rear footer in the vehicle interior, or under the front panel. It can be used by placing and fixing it in a part that does not get in the way during use, in other words, in an appropriate part of the interior of the vehicle.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, in the automobile umbrella case of the present invention, when not in use, the umbrella insertion tube is shortened and stored in a recess formed on the door or inside the vehicle interior, and is further covered with a cover plate. The umbrella insertion tube and mouth ring rarely protrude into the vehicle interior, so
It does not interfere with driving or when passengers get in and out of the vehicle, does not take up space inside the vehicle, and has a good appearance. By hanging the umbrella inside the cabin and inserting an umbrella into it, it is possible to prevent the occupants' clothes from getting wet due to the wet umbrella, and to prevent the interior of the vehicle from being soiled by water that can get in from the umbrella. It also has the effect of preventing it from getting dirty.
