Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a parcel loading device installed in the trunk lid of a vehicle.

A parcel loading device attached to the trunk lid that is used to store parcels that are inappropriate to be stored inside the vehicle, such as items that are dirty, emit a foul odor, or are wet with liquid, when the vehicle is loaded and transported. It has been well known for a long time that the vehicle is loaded on a vehicle. A conventional parcel loading device of this type has a carrier made of a pipe or the like fixed to a trunk lid, and is configured to load parcels onto this carrier. However, if the carrier is fixed to the trunk lid,
Since the carrier is always exposed on the outside of the vehicle, the carrier becomes a nuisance especially when no cargo is loaded, and it also has the disadvantage that it spoils the appearance of the vehicle.

This invention was made based on the above recognition,
The aim is to provide a parcel loading device which makes it possible to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art without impairing the parcel loading function in any way.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the rear part of a vehicle (passenger car), with reference numeral 1 indicating the body of the vehicle and reference numeral 2 indicating a trunk lid for a trunk room provided at the rear of the body.

The trunk lid 2 is equipped with a parcel loading device 3 according to the invention, which device 3 has a carrier 4 for loading parcels. This carrier 4 is made of a plate-shaped body made of metal or resin, etc.
One side thereof is a tray-shaped recessed cargo loading surface 5. The carrier 4 is housed in a recess 6 (FIG. 2) formed in the upper surface of the trunk lid 2.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, two side walls 7, 7 partition the recess 6 of the trunk lid 2.
Rail-shaped guide members 9, 9a having guide grooves 8, 8a are respectively fixed to the guide grooves 8, 8a.
Slide pins 11 and 11a protruding from 10a are slidably fitted. In this case, in this example, the end regions of the guide grooves 8, 8a on the rear side of the vehicle are bent in a step shape, and the rear end portions are bent at the stopper portions 12 (second
). A similar stepped portion may also be formed at the guide groove end portion 14 on the vehicle front side.

When using the parcel loading device 3, it is sufficient to keep the carrier 4 in the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 and place the parcel 13 on the loading surface 5, thereby storing the parcel in the vehicle. Even unsuitable items can be transported without any problems. At this time, in the illustrated example, the slide pins 11, 11a are positioned in contact with the ends 14 of the guide grooves 8, 8a.

On the other hand, when the parcel loading device 3 is not used,
The carrier 4 in the operating state shown in FIGS. 1 and 4 is rotated counterclockwise (in the direction of arrow A) about the slide pins 11 and 11a as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and then slid. While sliding the pins 11 and 11a in the guide grooves 8 and 8a, pull them to the right in the figure (toward the rear of the vehicle). Next, the slide pins 11, 11a are placed in the stopper portion 12 (Fig. 7),
Rotate the carrier 4 further counterclockwise and fit it into the recess 6 of the trunk lid 2 again (8th
figure). In this way, the carrier 4 is placed on the trunk lid 2 in a half-turned state by 180 degrees, and its cargo loading surface 5 is covered underneath (see also FIG. 10). At this time, the rear surface 15 of the carrier opposite to the cargo loading surface 5
As can be seen from FIG. 10, since the baggage loading device 3 is formed continuously and almost on the same plane as the lid surface 16 other than the recessed portion 6, the parcel loading device 3 is not visually noticeable and improves the aesthetic appearance of the vehicle. You will not be harmed.

When attempting to use the carrier 4 with the cargo loading surface 5 facing upward, for example, the carrier 4 in the unused state shown by the solid line in FIGS. 9 and 10,
The slide pins 11, 11a are rotated in the clockwise direction (arrow A1) to bring them to the position shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. While the pin is fitted into the guide grooves 8 and 8a,
Slide the slide pins 11, 11a to the left (direction of arrow B) in the figure, and insert the slide pins 11, 11a into the guide grooves 8, 8a.
4, and then rotate the carrier 4 in the direction of arrow C around the pins 11 and 11a to fit it into the recess 6 of the trunk lid 2. Bye.

As described above, when the parcel loading device 3 is in use, its function is not impaired, and when it is not in use, it is possible to prevent the carrier 4 from degrading the appearance of the vehicle.

By the way, if the above-mentioned carrier 4 is simply placed in the recess 6 of the trunk lid 2, there is a risk that the carrier 4 will move or wobble when the vehicle is running, so in the illustrated embodiment, the carrier 4 is not placed in the trunk lid. 2 or the body. That is, the 10th
As shown in FIGS. 12 to 12, a lock lever 18 is rotatably supported on the rear surface 15 of the carrier via a pivot pin 17.
9 engages with a stopper pin 20 fixedly installed on the trunk lid side (FIG. 11). Therefore, the carrier 4 is securely locked to the trunk lid 2. At this time, the pins 11, 11a are engaged with the stopper portion 12 at the rear of the guide groove bent in a stepped manner, so that a reliable locked state is ensured. To rotate the carrier 4 from the state shown in FIG. 10, push down the rear end of the lock lever 18 with your finger 21 and rotate it around the pivot pin 17 as shown in FIG. Bring it to the position indicated by the chain line in the figure (see Figure 12). As a result, the pawl 19 is detached from the stopper pin 20, and the carrier 4 is moved in the direction of arrow A1 (the first
(Fig. 0).

When the carrier 4 is reversed to the operating position shown in FIG. 1, the lock lever 18 is turned over as shown in FIG.
is projected rearward and is locked with a so-called snap lock 22, which is well known per se, thereby locking the carrier 4.
This snap lock 22 has a rotating member 23 that is pivotally attached to the vehicle body 1 by a pin 30 so as to be freely rotatable in the direction of the arrow, and a ring-shaped member 24 that is pivotally attached to the rotating member itself. After rotating the rotating member 23 as shown by the chain line in FIG.
is engaged with the lock lever 18, and then the rotating member 23 is tilted toward the vehicle body 1 as shown by the solid line, thereby creating a tensile force in the annular member 17,
Lock carrier 4 to body 1. At this time, the pins 11, 11a are in contact with the end portion 14 of the guide groove, but if this end portion 14 is also formed with a stepped portion, a more reliable locking state can be obtained.

FIG. 14 shows another embodiment, in which a rope hooking member 25 is provided on the load loading surface 5 of the carrier 4 so as to be rotatable in the direction of arrow D. When the carrier 4 is used, the rope hooking member 25 is kept standing in the state shown by the solid line, and when the rope 26 is hung on the cargo 13 on the cargo loading surface 5,
The rope 26 can be hooked onto the rope hooking member 25. When the carrier 4 is to be reversed, the rope hooking member 25 is brought down to the position shown by the chain line so that the member 25 does not interfere with the reversal of the carrier 4. The other configurations in FIG. 14 are the same as in the previous embodiment.

As described above, according to the present invention, since the carrier having a cargo loading surface on one side is reversibly attached to the trunk lid, the function of the cargo loading device is not hindered in any way when it is in use, and the carrier is mounted on the trunk lid when it is not in use. The carrier does not get in the way or spoil the appearance of the vehicle.
