1 is a perspective view illustrating a cup holder for a vehicle according to the prior art, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion C shown in FIG. 2, and FIG. It is sectional drawing which shows the operating state of the vehicle cup holder.

The cup holder for a vehicle according to the prior art includes a main body 1 on which the cup is seated and a cover 3 installed to be movable on the main body 1.

Here, the main body 1 is formed with a space portion 7 into which the cup is inserted and seated, and an insertion portion 9 through which the cover 3 is mounted.

In this way, after the user operates the cover 3 to open the main body 1, the cup can be seated in the space 7.

Since the cup seated in the space 7 is restricted in flow, it is possible to prevent the contents contained in the cup from being lost to the outside of the cup by the vibration generated while driving the vehicle.

The cover 3 is mounted to the inserting portion 9 so as to be sunk, and rotates in the direction of the space portion 7 when protruding from the inserting portion 9 to seal the space portion 7.

Here, the opening and closing device (not shown) to be roamed rotatably cover 3 is a conventional opening and closing device, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

However, in the vehicle cup holder according to the related art, the cover 3 is rotatably mounted when the cover 3 is mounted through the insertion unit 9, so that a predetermined space is formed between the insertion unit 9 and the cover 3. Therefore, there is a problem that foreign matters such as coins may flow into the inserting portion 9.

In order to improve this problem, the locking jaw portion 5 may be formed at the inner end of the insertion portion 9.

However, when a coin is caught on the locking jaw 5, the cover 3 is rotated when the cover 3 is closed, so that a space is created between the locking jaw 5 and the cover 3 so that the coin 10 is inserted into the space. Or a coin 10 is interposed between the cover 3 and the locking jaw 5, which may cause a malfunction or breakage.

The present invention has been made to improve the above problems of the prior art, an object of the present invention to provide a cup holder for a vehicle to prevent the malfunction and damage caused by the insertion of foreign matters such as coins or the insertion of foreign matters.

The cup holder for a vehicle according to the present invention for solving the above problems is provided with a main body in which a space portion in which a cup is seated is formed, a cover installed to be movable in the main body to open and close the space portion, and installed in the cover. And a prevention part covering the gap between the covers.

In addition, the preventing portion of the present invention is characterized in that it comprises a rib formed on the inner wall of the cover.

In addition, the rib of the present invention is characterized by forming the same height as the upper surface of the main body when the cover is opened.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of a cup holder for a vehicle according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

For convenience of explanation, a cup holder for a vehicle will be described as an example.

In this process, the thickness of the lines or the size of the components shown in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity and convenience of description.

In addition, terms to be described below are terms defined in consideration of functions in the present invention, which may vary according to the intention or convention of a user or an operator.

Therefore, the definitions of these terms should be made based on the contents throughout the specification.

5 is a perspective view showing a cup holder for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 is a perspective view showing a cover of a cup holder for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 7 is shown in FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB, and FIG. 8 is an enlarged view of portion D shown in FIG.

The main body 50 is formed with a space portion 52 is seated on the cup according to the present invention, the cover 60 is installed in the main body 50 so as to be flowable to open and close the space portion 52, the cover 60 It is installed to include a prevention portion 70 to cover the gap between the main body 50 and the cover 60.

Here, the body 50 has an insertion portion 54 is formed behind the space portion 52, the inner wall of the insertion portion 54 is formed of a curved surface to form a guide 56.

As a result, when the cover 60 is inserted into the insertion part 52, the cover 60 is rotated while the inner end of the cover 60 slides along the guide 56.

Since the opening and closing device to be sunk while rotating the cover 56 is a commonly used opening and closing device, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In addition, a locking jaw portion 58 is formed at the inner end of the main body 50 forming the insertion portion 54 to prevent foreign matter from entering the insertion portion 54.

The prevention part 70 includes a rib 72 formed on the inner wall of the cover 60.

Since the rib 72 has the same height as the upper surface of the main body 50 when the cover 60 is opened, the gap between the cover 60 and the main body 50 is covered when the cover 60 is opened. do.

And since the rib 72 is formed long in the left and right directions of the cover 60, a gap of a predetermined size or more is not generated between the cover 60 and the main body 50.

As a result, when the cover 60 is opened, a relatively large foreign material such as a coin can be prevented from being inserted into the gap between the cover 60 and the insertion part 54.

Looking at the action of the vehicle cup holder according to the present invention configured as described above are as follows.

First, when the cup is to be inserted, the cover 60 is opened to allow the space 52 to be opened, and the cup is inserted into the space 52 to prevent the cup from being shaken to prevent the contents contained in the cup from spilling.

At this time, since the space between the cover 60 and the main body 50 is covered by the ribs 72 formed on the inner wall of the cover 60, it is possible to prevent foreign substances such as coins from flowing into the insertion portion 54. It becomes possible.

After the cup is removed from the space 52, the cover 60 is protruded out of the insertion portion 54 to seal the space 52.

At this time, since the cover 60 protrudes while being rotated in the horizontal direction while being upright in the vertical direction, interference between the ribs 72 formed on the inner wall of the cover 60 and the main body 50 is prevented.

Although the present invention has been described with reference to one embodiment shown in the drawings, this is merely exemplary, and various modifications and equivalent other embodiments are possible to those skilled in the art. Will understand.

In addition, although a vehicle cup holder has been described as an example, this is merely exemplary, and the cup holder of the present invention may be used in a product other than the cup holder used in the vehicle.

Therefore, the true technical protection scope of the present invention will be defined by the claims below.

The cup holder for a vehicle according to the present invention configured as described above can prevent a relatively large foreign object such as a coin from flowing into the insertion part because the gap between the cover and the insertion part is covered by the prevention part when the cover is opened. There is an advantage that can prevent the malfunction or breakage of the cover.
