Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention provides a system for attaching and detaching an object such as a water supply cup to the inside of a case lid attached via a hinge to a case body with an open side. The present invention relates to an iron storage case provided with a holding means for holding the iron.

[Conventional technology]

An example of an iron storage case in which holding means is provided inside the case lid is given in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 57-22699. In other words, Utility Model Application No. 57-22699 discloses that the case lid is attached to the side of the case body via a hinge, and is located on the free end side (that is, the side opposite to the hinge), and that stands up from the bottom surface of the lid peripheral wall of the case lid. A holding means is provided integrally with the case lid to form a box-shaped portion with an open top surface and the bottom surface of the lid peripheral wall as a bottom between the inner surface of a portion of the case lid and the holding means is provided inside the box-shaped portion. A structure for storing small items such as water cups is shown.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, the holding means in such a conventional structure is a substantially box-shaped part with an open top surface, and a water supply cup, etc. is housed inside the holding means, so the amount of material constituting the holding means is large and This not only increases the cost of materials, but also increases the weight of the case lid, and there is also the problem that the state in which objects to be held, such as the water supply cup, are held cannot be visually confirmed from the outside. Moreover, because the holding means has conventionally been disposed on the free end side of the case lid, the case lid has become heavier on the free end side. For this reason, opening and closing of the case lid tends to require a relatively large torque, and since the distance from the hinge to the holding means is long, the load applied to the hinge as the object to be held is taken in and out of the holding means is also increased. There was a problem with how big it was.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention has a case lid that is attached to the case body in a side-opening manner via a hinge and opens and closes an opening on one side of the case body, and has a structure in which a lid peripheral wall is provided around the main part of the lid so that one side is opened. , and a holding means for the object to be held is disposed on the hinge side at the inner lower part of the case lid, and the holding means protrudes from the inner surface of the lid main portion and the inner surface of the side surface of the lid peripheral wall on the hinge side. a holder provided between each of these inner surfaces, and a portion of the bottom surface of the lid peripheral wall that faces the inner surface of the holder,
Moreover, the holding body is provided on the lower inner surface of the case lid at a distance upward from the inner side facing portion of the holding body on the bottom surface portion, and substantially most of the holding means is provided from the lower end of the heat shield installed inside the case body. The above-mentioned conventional problems are solved by arranging the lower part.

[Effect]

In the iron storage case equipped with the above solution, the object to be held, such as the water supply cup, has its bottom supported by a portion of the bottom of the lid peripheral wall of the case lid that faces the inside of the holder, and is higher than the bottom of the object to be held. The case lid is removably held on the inner surface of the case lid, with the side supported by the holder, and a portion exposed between the holder and the portion of the bottom surface of the lid peripheral wall that faces the inside of the holder. Therefore, it is possible to visually check at a glance whether the held object is being held on the inner surface of the case lid. In order to enable such visual recognition, the holding means utilizes a part of the bottom surface of the lid circumferential wall of the case lid as described above, and is formed by a holding body provided at a distance above this bottom surface. Therefore, the holding body as before,
Compared to the case where the holder is approximately box-shaped with an opening on the upper surface for storing a water supply cup or the like inside, the holder does not require a bottom and the amount of material constituting the holder can be reduced. Therefore, the material cost of the holder and the weight of the case lid can be reduced. Moreover, since the holding means is arranged on the hinge side at the bottom of the case lid, the weight of the case lid can be reduced as described above, and the torque required to open and close the case lid can be reduced. This reduces the distance to and from the holding means, and reduces the load applied to the hinge when the object to be held is taken in and out of the holding means. Furthermore, the heat shield not only reflects the heat from the electric iron to the inner surface of the case lid, but also radiates the heat to the inner surface of the case lid when it becomes high temperature, and also connects the holding body of the holding means to the opposing part inside the holding body. Although the object to be held is exposed between the two, most of the holding means is disposed below the lower end of the heat shield, so that the influence of heat from the heat shield on the object to be held is reduced. You can do less.

A holding means 16 is disposed on the 0 side and detachably holds an object A such as a water supply cup.
This holding means 16 includes a holder 17 that protrudes from the inner surface of the lid main portion 11 and the inner surface of the side surface 12a on the hinge 10 side of the lid peripheral wall 12 and is provided between these inner surfaces, and a bottom surface portion 12b of the lid peripheral wall 12. and a holder inner facing portion 18 facing the inner surface of the holder 17. In addition, the holding body 17 is provided above and apart from the holding body inner facing portion 18 on the bottom surface portion 13b, and substantially most of the holding means 16 is provided below the lower end of the heat shield 2. . As shown in FIG. 1, the holding means 16 configured as described above supports the bottom of the object A to be held, such as a water supply cup, with the portion 18 facing the inner side of the holder on the bottom surface portion 12b of the lid peripheral wall of the case lid 8, and A part of the holding object A above the bottom is supported by a holding body 17.

Note that this embodiment shows a case where the holder 17 is attached separately from the case lid 8. That is, as shown in detail in FIG. 3 and FIG.
and a side surface portion 12a on the hinge 10 side of the lid peripheral wall 12 that is connected to the protruding tip of this portion 17a.
The part 17b protruding from the inner surface of the case lid 8
It has a unique structure because it is separate from the lid inner surface attached portion 17c that connects and supports each of the above-mentioned portions 17a and 17b, and has a frame shape on the outer surface of the lid inner surface attached portion 17c. is mating part 19
A mounting portion 20 having a distal end thereof is integrally provided in a protruding manner. The holder 17 is, for example, a case lid 8.

It is attached to the lower inner surface of the case lid 8. Note that the fitting portion 20 is connected to the cylindrical portions 13 and 1 when the hinge 10 is assembled.
4, and the cylindrical portion 1 of the hinge shaft 15
3 and 14, it is fitted onto the hinge shaft 15.

Further, in the figure, 22 is a clamp receiver that is integrated with the case body 1, and 23 is a clamp that is attached to the side surface of the free end side of the case lid 8 and can be freely hooked onto and detached from the clamp receiver 22. The case lid 8 is held in the closed state by the engagement of the case lid 8. Furthermore, in the figure, 24 is a carrying handle attached to the upper part of the case body 1 so as to be able to freely raise and lower;
26 is a ventilation hole provided in the case body 1.

In the iron storage case configured as described above, the object A to be held, such as the water supply cup, has its bottom connected to the case lid 8.
The object A is supported by being placed on the holder inner side facing portion 18 of the bottom surface 12b of the lid peripheral wall 12, and a part of the object A above the bottom part is engaged with the holder 17 and supported, as described above. holding means 16
It is detachably held on the inner surface of the lower part of the case lid 8 via. In this holding structure, a part of the object to be held A is exposed between the holding body 17 and the holding body inner side facing portion 18 of the bottom surface portion 12b of the lid peripheral wall. The situation is shown in FIG. Therefore, it is possible to visually check at a glance whether the held object A is being held on the inner surface of the case lid 8 or not.

In order to enable such visual recognition, the holding means 16 utilizes a part of the bottom surface part 12b of the lid peripheral wall 12 of the case lid 8, as described above, and is spaced upwardly from this bottom surface part 12b. Since the holder 17 is formed by the provided holder 17, the holder 17 does not require a bottom, compared to the conventional case where the holder is shaped like a box with an opening on the top surface for storing a water supply cup, etc. In addition, the holding body 17
The amount of material constituting the material can be reduced.
Therefore, the material cost can be reduced and the weight of the case lid 8 can be reduced.

Furthermore, since the holding means 16 is disposed closer to the hinge 10 rather than to the free end side of the case lid 8, the case lid 8 can be opened and closed with a small torque while reducing the weight of the case lid 8 as described above. be able to. In addition, since the distance in the horizontal direction from the hinges 9, 10 to the holding means 16 is short, the load applied to the hinges 9, 10 when the object A is put in and taken out from the holding means 16 can be reduced. It is not necessary to form the hinges 9, 10 with particularly high strength, and the risk of the hinges 9, 10 being damaged can be extremely reduced.

By the way, the heat shield 2 housed inside the case body 1
The case body 1 surrounds the hot iron base of the electric iron to provide heat insulation to the case body 1, so the heat from the hot iron base is reflected to the inner surface of the case lid 8, and the heat becomes high due to the heat insulation and radiant heat is generated. It is released to the inner surface of the case lid 8, etc. On the other hand, the holding means 16 holds the object A held therein.
Since the structure is such that the object A is exposed, when the case lid 8 is closed, the object A is held in a state where it is easily subjected to thermal load from the main case 1 side. However, since most of the holding means 16 is disposed below the lower end of the heat shield 2, reflected heat and radiant heat from the heat shield 2 is prevented from acting on the exposed portion of the object A. You can do less. In this way, the thermal load on the object to be held A is reduced, so that discoloration and the like can be prevented from occurring over a long period of use.

Although the above-mentioned embodiment is constructed as described above, in carrying out the present invention, the case body, heat shield, hinge, case lid, lid main portion, and lid peripheral wall may be The specific structures, shapes, positions, materials, etc. of the side and bottom parts of the lid peripheral wall, the holding body of the holding means, and the inner facing portion of the holding body are not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and may be modified in various ways. Of course, it can be implemented by configuring it as follows.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, the gist of which is the configuration described in the above claims, the inner side facing portion of the holder consisting of a part of the bottom portion of the lid circumferential wall of the case lid and the holder provided apart above this portion can be separated from each other. Since the object to be held, such as the water supply cup, is held on the inner surface of the lower part of the case lid using the holding means, there is no need to form the holding body into a substantially box shape with a bottom, and therefore, the object to be held can be held in the shape of a box with a bottom. A portion of the holding means can be visually exposed and held on the inner surface of the case lid, and the amount of material constituting the holding means can be reduced, thereby reducing material costs and the weight of the case lid. Moreover, by arranging the holding means on the hinge side at the bottom of the case lid, the weight of the case lid can be reduced, the torque required to open and close the case lid can be reduced, and objects to be held can be taken in and out of the holding means. Accordingly, the load applied to the hinge can be reduced. Further, depending on the positional relationship between the heat shield and the holding means, there is an effect that the thermal load from the heat shield on the object held by the holding means can be reduced.
