Description

Drink holder structure

This disclosure relates to a drawer type drink holder structure.

As an example of a drink holder structure installed in a vehicle cabin or the like, there is a drawer type drink holder structure in which a box and a holder stored in a case are used by sliding. In this structure, it is possible to use it as a drink holder with a single device, use only a box, or use it according to the purpose.

For example, a user who wants to use as a drink holder first pulls out the box from the case and then pulls out the holder for use. However, since both the box and the holder need to be pulled out separately, the usability is deteriorated. For this reason, it is conceivable to use a structure that allows the holder to follow when the box is pulled out, but this time the usability is deteriorated for a user who wants to use only the box.

Due to the above problems, when the holder and the holder are slid and moved when the holder and protrusion are moved over the box side, the holder is placed in the box. A configuration has been proposed in which the holder does not follow the movement of the box when the movement does not get over the protrusion (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2010-228494

However, in the proposed configuration, in order to make the holder follow the movement of the box, it is necessary to get over the protrusion on the box side, and a load is applied to the box at this time. For this reason, the box excellent in durability with respect to the said load is desired.

In addition, there is a method of adding a device that follows and does not follow the movement of the box by locking or unlocking the holder and the box, but the number of parts is increased and reliability is increased. It will be disadvantageous in terms of cost.

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a drink holder structure that is advantageous in terms of durability, reliability, and cost with a simple configuration.

A drink holder structure according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a box portion having a storage space, a holder portion that holds a drink container, and the box portion and a case portion that stores the holder portion, and the box portion. And the holder part is provided so that it can be pulled out of the case part and can be stored in the case part, and at least the holder part establishes an engagement relationship between the box part and the holder part, and An engagement mechanism for releasing the joint relationship is provided.

The box portion has a pair of side walls extending in the pull-out direction, and the holder portion has a pair of side surfaces having opposing portions facing at least a part of the pair of side walls at the time of pull-out, and the engagement It is preferable that the mechanism has a convex part mechanism that protrudes from the facing part of the holder part toward the side wall of the box part.

[Operation of this embodiment]
6A to 6D are side views for explaining the operation of the drink holder structure according to the present embodiment.

First, when the drink holder structure is not used, the box portion 10 and the holder portion 20 are accommodated in the case portion 30 as shown in FIG. 6A.

When using the drink holder structure, as shown in FIG. 6B, the box part 10 is first pulled out from the case part 30 and slid.

When only the storage unit 16 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) of the box unit 10 is used, it is used in the state of FIG. 6B, and when the use is completed, the box unit 10 is pushed in and returned to the storage state of FIG. 6A. . 6A and 6B, the holder part 20 is in a state of being housed in the case part 30, and the lower protrusion 24a and the upper protrusion 24b formed on the left side surface 24 of the holder part 20 are Each is located at the rearmost end of the lower guide groove 33a and the upper guide groove 33b formed in the left side surface 33 of the case portion 30.

When the holder part 20 is used, the holder part 20 is further pulled out from the state shown in FIG. 6B and is slid (see FIG. 6C).

In this state, the lower protrusion 24a and the upper protrusion 24b formed on the left side surface 24 of the holder part 20 are respectively the uppermost guide groove 33a and the upper guide groove 33b formed on the left side surface 33 of the case part 30. Located at the front end. That is, the holder part 20 is the state most pulled out from the case part 30, and can be used as a cup holder in this state.

In this state, the rib 24c (see FIG. 4) that forms the convex mechanism 27 of the holder portion 20 is located behind the vertical groove 12d that forms the concave mechanism 17 of the box portion 10, and is perpendicular to the rib 24c. It is not engaged with the groove 12d. Therefore, even if only the holder part 20 is pushed backward in this state, the box part 10 does not follow, and the box part 10 remains in the position of FIG. 6B as it is (non-following state). Further, in this state, the claw portion 23 formed on the front side of the holder portion 20 is on the upper portion of the box portion 10 and is not in contact with the front wall 11 of the box portion 10. Furthermore, the upper end of the vertical groove 12 d that forms the recess mechanism 17 of the box portion 10 is located below the height of the lower end of the claw portion 23 of the holder portion 20.

When only the box portion 10 is pushed rearward from the state shown in FIG. 6C, the position of the vertical groove 12d moves rearward and overlaps the position of the rib 24c. As a result, the rib 24c is aligned with the vertical groove as shown by the arrow in FIG. 12d is moved downward and locked, and is engaged as shown in FIG. 6D. Further, the claw portion 23 formed on the front side of the holder portion 20 comes into contact with the inner surface of the front wall 11 of the box portion 10. Further, the upper end of the vertical groove 12 d forming the recess mechanism 17 of the box portion 10 is at a position substantially equal to the height of the lower end of the claw portion 23 of the holder portion 20.

Therefore, when the box part 10 is pushed further back from the state shown in FIG. 6D, the holder part 20 follows and is pushed together (following state). For this reason, both the box part 10 and the holder part 20 can be accommodated in the case part 30 by one operation. Moreover, when using again as a cup holder, since only the box part 10 is pulled out from the case part 30, since the engagement state is maintained, the holder part 20 will follow and it will be drawn out together (following state). For this reason, both the box part 10 and the holder part 20 can be taken out from the case part 30 by one operation | movement, and it is not necessary to pull out the holder part 20 again.

On the other hand, when only the holder portion 20 is pushed backward from the state of FIG. 6D, the engagement relationship between the holder portion 20 and the box portion 10 is canceled by this operation. For this reason, only the holder part 20 is accommodated in the case part 30, and the box part 10 does not follow, but stays in the position of FIG. 6D as it is (non-following state). Accordingly, only the storage portion 16 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) of the box portion 10 can be used again.
[Effect of this embodiment]
In the drink holder structure 1 according to the present embodiment, the holder portion 20 is provided with a rib 24c that forms a convex portion mechanism 27, and the box portion 10 is provided with a vertical groove 12d that forms a concave portion mechanism 17. For this reason, the holder part 20 follows the movement of the box part 10 when the rib 24c and the vertical groove 12d are engaged, and does not follow when the box part 10 is not engaged, and these states can be properly used by a simple operation.

Specifically, when used as a drink holder, once the box portion 10 is first pulled out and the holder portion 20 is pulled out, the engagement relationship can be achieved by pushing only the box portion 10 into the case portion 30 after use. Established. For this reason, the holder part 20 always moves so as to follow the movement of the box part 10 at the next use. Therefore, the box part 10 and the holder part 20 can be pulled out from the case part 30 and used in one operation, and it is not necessary to pull out only the holder part 20 again.

Moreover, even after using as a drink holder, when only the storage part 16 of the box part 10 is desired to be used, the engagement relationship is canceled by pushing only the holder part 20 into the case part 30. For this reason, only the holder part 20 is accommodated in the case part 30, and the box part 10 does not follow. Therefore, even if the box part 10 is pulled out from the case part 30 from the next time, the holder part 20 does not follow, and only the storage part 16 of the box part 10 can always be used.

In other words, the drink holder structure 1 according to this embodiment has a simple configuration and can store the previous operation of the user. Therefore, the user is free from troublesome operations without particular awareness.

Also, since the structure is simple, it is advantageous in terms of product reliability and cost.

Furthermore, since it is not necessary to provide another member or another device for establishing and canceling the engagement relationship, the number of parts can be reduced. In addition, unlike the conventional example, it is not necessary to move over the protrusions in order to establish and cancel the engagement relationship, so that no load is applied to the constituent members and durability is improved.
