As shown in Figure 2 to 5, the present invention, the console tray (console tray; 100), armrest (200), holder (300) and guider (400) and hinge shaft (500) and elasticity The support means 600 is roughly divided.

The console tray 100 is a part in which an article is loaded, and an accommodation space 110 is formed therein, and a stopper 120 is extended to a predetermined height on one side surface.

And hinge holes 130 are formed on both sides of the console tray 100 before and after.

Armrest 200 is located on the upper portion of the console tray 100 to selectively open the storage space 110 of the console tray 100, one side, that is, the stopper 120 of the console tray 100 The guide stopper 210 is rotatably installed at a position corresponding to the bar, and the guide stopper 210 is counterclockwise by the torsion spring s, that is, the stopper 120 of the console tray 100. Is elastically supported towards.

The holder 300 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the armrest 200, and is fixedly installed at both front and rear sides of the guide stopper 210, and guide rails 310 are formed at each side. .

The guider 400 has both ends coupled to the guide rail 310 on the holder 300 so as to be slidable in the front and rear directions, and both left and right grooves 410 are formed at both ends.

At this time, the left and right grooves 410 of the guider 400 are formed to be inclined so that the distance between each other gradually narrows toward the outside while facing each other.

On the other hand, both ends of the guider 400 is a portion that is exposed to the outside of the armrest 200, because the user must push it and slide it to be bent vertically downward to the end so that the user can easily operate the handle It would be desirable to provide a piece 420.

In addition, a stopper protrusion 430 is formed on the center lower surface of the above-described guider 400 to selectively engage both sides by the guide stopper 210.

The hinge shaft 500 is configured to be separated into left and right, and each outer end of the hinge shaft 500 is inserted into the hinge hole 130 of the console tray 100 in a detachable manner, and the corresponding inner end of the hinge shaft 500 is described above. It is coupled to the long groove 410 of.

That is, the locking and unlocking are combined.

Accordingly, the hinge shaft 500 is firmly mounted on the hinge hole 130 and the other side is separated from the hinge hole 130 according to the sliding movement in the front and rear directions of the guider 400.

Therefore, by opening the separated side opening of the armrest 200 is made, the mounted side is to form a hinge.

On the other hand, the separation of the above-described hinge shaft 500 to the left, right is caused to cause the flow in the hinge shaft 500, which is to prevent this in advance, the outside of the holder 300 described above It is preferable to provide the auxiliary rail 320 in the longitudinal direction so that the end of the hinge shaft is guided and supported on the side.

In addition, in coupling the corresponding inner end of the hinge shaft 500 to the left and right long grooves 410 of the guider 400, the hinge shaft 510 is coupled to the left and right long grooves 410 so as not to be easily separated. Projections 510 are formed to protrude outward from the left and right grooves 410 at the ends.

Resilient support means 600, which is provided on one side of the center surface of the armrest 200, and performs the function of elastically supporting so that the position of the guider 400 is always located in the center.

Looking at the detailed structure of the resilient support means 600, the bracket 610 is formed on one side of the armrest, that is, the portion adjacent to the guide stopper 210, the cutting groove 611 is formed on both sides.

And the elastic bar 620 is located inside the bracket 610, the elastic bar 620 is provided with a close contact 621 on both sides, the spring 622 is interposed between the close contact 621. As a result, the outer surface of the contact table 621 is in close contact with the inner surface of the bracket 600.

Meanwhile, a rib 630 inserted into the center lower surface of the guider 400 along the cutting groove 611 of the bracket 600 to elastically contact the elastic rod 620, that is, the contact table 621. Prepared.

Therefore, the guider 400 is stably positioned without flowing to any one side by the state in which the rib 630 is elastically contacted with the elastic rod 620.

In the present invention configured as described above, first, the guider 400 is positioned at the center of gravity by the elastic support means 600.

In this state, both ends of the hinge shaft 500 are slightly held in the hinge hole 130 of the console tray 100.

In this state, when the user pushes the handle piece 420 of the guider 400 exposed to the adjacent position in order to store or take out the article in the storage space 110 of the console tray 100, the guider ( 400 is transferred to the other side along the guide rail 310 of the holder 300.

As the guider 400 is slid and moved to one side, the inner ends of the hinge shafts 500 that are coupled to the left and right grooves 410 of the guider 400 are pushed to a side of the guider 400. The side is positioned at the widest part of the left and right long grooves 410.

Therefore, the pushed portion is rotated while the outer end of the hinge shaft 500 is separated from the hinge hole 130 of the console tray 100 and the locking is released, and the other side is inserted into the hinge hole 130 and locked. As much hinge as possible.

In this state, when the armrest 200 is rotated and opened about the hinge portion, the guide stopper 210 pressurized by the stopper 120 of the console tray 100 is counterclockwise by the torsion spring s. Rotate at the same time and at the same time contacting the stopper protrusion 430 side of the guider 400.

Therefore, the guider 400 maintains the moved state, thereby preventing the hinge shaft 500 of the hinge portion from being separated from the hinge hole 130.

On the other hand, when the armrest 200 is closed in such a state, the guide stopper 210 is pressed by the stopper 120 of the console tray 100 and rotated clockwise, and at the same time supporting the guider 400. The force is released.

Therefore, the guider 400 is to return to the operable state by being positioned in the initial position, that is, the center portion of the rib 630 formed on the center lower surface by the elastic force of the elastic rod 620.

As described above, in the present invention, the hinge part and the locking part for opening the armrest in both directions with respect to the console tray are made of one hinge, and thus the structure is very simple. There is an advantage that stable operation can be performed at all times by being blocked from being applied to the branch.
