Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to the structure of a telephone support device for a storage box with a lid, such as a center console box provided on the side of a seat in a front-back arrangement in a vehicle such as an automobile or a rail car. .

Conventionally, Fig. 1 (see Utility Model Application Publication No. 54-112247)
As shown in FIG. 1, this type of storage box 1 is provided with a lid 3 that allows the opening 2 of the storage box 1 to be opened and closed. He appears at will. Further, reference numeral 5 denotes a pad provided on the surface of the lid 3, which serves as an armrest for a passenger (not shown). 6 is a storage space, and 7 is a hinge of the lid 3.

By the way, according to this configuration, when the telephone 4 is stored inside the storage box 1, the telephone 4
Even if the receiving chime sounds, the telephone 4 is surrounded by the storage box 1 and the lid 3, so there is a risk that the sound will not reach the ears of the passenger. This tendency increases further when passing through a noisy area.

In view of such conventional examples, the present invention provides a transparent part in the storage box and/or lid in which the telephone is stored, in order to ensure that the chime sound for reception of the telephone can be heard, so that the chime sound can be surely heard by the passenger. Provides a structure that

Next, the structure of one embodiment of the present invention will be explained using FIGS. 2 and 3.

Parts that are the same or equivalent to those in FIG. 1 are designated by the same numbers, and redundant explanations will be omitted.

In the figure, 10 is a storage box, 11 is an opening of the storage box 10,
12 is a first hinge provided in the storage box 10; 13;
1 is a storage box for the telephone 4 rotatably attached to the first hinge 12; 14 is a molding member attached to cover the edge 15 of the storage box 13;
6 is a second hinge attached to the molding member 14;
17 is a lid rotatably attached by the second hinge 16. This lid 17 is formed with a transparent portion 18 that can transmit the reception chime sound of the telephone 4, and the lid 17 main body 19 is a transparent body made of a synthetic resin material such as acrylic resin or ABS resin. Reference numeral 20 denotes a grill made of a synthetic resin material attached to the transparent portion 18, and has an opening 21 in the grill 20.
Reference numeral 22 denotes a clip provided on the free end 17a of the lid 17, which can be freely engaged with and removed from the molding member 14. 2
3 is a screw for fixing the device 4a of the telephone 4 to the storage box 13. 24 is a storage space of the storage box 10 formed below the storage box 13.

Since the present invention has such a configuration, when the chime of the telephone 4 rings with the lid 17 closed, the chime sound is emitted outside through the opening 21, so that the passenger can surely know that the telephone 4 has received the chime. Can be done.
Furthermore, if the cover 17 is not provided with the pad 5 and the main body 19 itself is made transparent, the existence of the telephone 4 can be visually seen, so even a person who is riding in a vehicle equipped with the telephone 4 for the first time, such as a rental car, can recognize the telephone 4 by just hearing the chime sound. This means that problems such as confusion due to the unknown existence of the information cannot occur. Note that 26 is a damper that presses the handset 4b of the telephone 4 with the cover 17.

Further, in the present invention, the transmitting part 18 and the opening 21 allow the reception chime sound of the telephone 4 to be heard, but there is a third
As shown in the figure, a gap 25 serving as a transparent portion may be provided so that the chime sound can be heard.

Alternatively, a fibrous cloth such as cheesecloth may be attached to the opening 20 to allow the chime sound to pass through and to prevent foreign matter such as dust from entering.

When using the telephone 4, the clip 22 of the lid 17 is removed and the lid 1 is removed centering on the second hinge 16.
When 7 is opened, the telephone 4 is exposed and is ready for use. In addition, when putting small items in and out of the storage space 24 of the storage box 10, the lid 1 is moved around the first hinge 12.
7. If the molding member 14 and the small storage box 13 are rotated together, the storage space 24 will be exposed.

Therefore, the present invention has the practical effect of making it possible to reliably hear the chime sound of the telephone set inside the storage box with the lid closed.
