Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION a. INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in an automobile console box.

b. Conventional technology A console box equipped with a change lever, a side brake and the like is located between the left and right front bucket seats. A lid that swings back and forth with a fulcrum at the rear end is provided on the rear upper surface of the box, and the lid is opened to allow articles to enter and exit.

By the way, as shown in FIG. 7, there is a console box provided with a U-shaped tray a which is slid rearward and pulled out, and stores articles from the rear seat side in the tray a (actually). See Kaisho 62-67851). Further, as shown in FIG. 8, there has been proposed a structure in which a slide table c is separately arranged within the thickness of the lid b, and a member d for supporting the table c is provided on the main body e (FIG. 8). See JP-A-60-38849).

c. Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, according to the former structure, the tray a has a U-shape, and there is a problem that large articles cannot be stored.

On the other hand, according to the latter structure, the table c and the supporting member d
Need to be separately provided, which causes a problem that the number of articles increases and the production cost increases.

d. Means for Solving the Problems The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an automobile console box which can store relatively large articles and can be manufactured at low cost. The gist of the present invention is to provide a console box having a lid that swings back and forth with the rear end as a fulcrum on the upper surface of the box body. A storage portion to be covered, and a tray that can be pulled out from the bottom of the storage portion to the rear of the vehicle body from below, and the lid includes an upper lid and a lower lid having rear ends fixed to the box body at the same time; At the rear of the vehicle, a support section that supports the lid with the lid turned upside down is erected, and is pulled out to the rear of the vehicle with the lower lid covering the storage section. The above-mentioned upper lid is turned over above the tray so that the upper part can be supported by the supporting portion of the tray.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 and 2 are a perspective view and a partial sectional view showing a console box according to an embodiment of the present invention. The console box is provided at a rear portion of the box body 1 and above a middle portion in the vertical direction, and a storage portion 2 having an open upper surface.
And a tray 7 that can be pulled out from below the bottom 2a of the storage section 2 to the rear of the vehicle body. The storage unit 2 has an upper surface opening covered with a lid including an upper lid 3 and a lower lid. The rear end of the upper lid 3 and the lower lid 4 are fixed to the box main body 1 and swing back and forth with the rear end as a fulcrum. As shown in FIG. 4, the lids 3 and 4 have hinge portions 3a and 4a at the rear end, and are provided with the hinge portions 3a and 4a. It is fixed. A projection 6 is provided on the back surface of the front end of the upper lid 3, and the lower lid 4 is provided with a projection 6.
And the box body 1 are provided with holes 4b and 1a at positions corresponding to the projections 6, respectively. Now, when the projection 6 is pushed into the hole 1a, the tip of the projection 6 is engaged with the periphery of the hole 1a, and the upper and lower lids 3, 4 are locked as shown in FIG. Reference numeral 7 denotes a tray provided below the storage unit 2, and the tray 7 is a slide rail extending back and forth on each of the left and right sides.
7a, a pair of left and right support portions 7b erected at the rear end portion, and a stopper member 7c provided on the upper surface of the front end portion. On the other hand, a pair of left and right slide rail guides 8 are provided on the lower surface of the bottom wall 2a of the storage section 2 as shown in Fig. 3, and the slide rails 7a are engaged with these rail guides 8. The tray 7 is attached to the box body 1. Now, when the tray 7 is pulled backward (in the direction of the arrow c in the figure), the stopper member 7c is moved to the rear step 2b of the bottom wall 2a as shown in FIG.
And the movement of the tray 7 is prevented. On the other hand, when the tray 7 is pushed into the box body 1, the front end of the tray 7 is moved to the step 2c between the bottom walls 2a as shown in FIG.
, And each support portion 7b of the tray 7 fits into the slit 1b on the rear end face of the box body 1. 7d is a handle provided at the rear of the tray 7.

Since the present embodiment is configured as described above, in order to use the upper lid 3 as a table, first, as shown in FIG. 1, the tray 7 is pulled out backward, the front end of the upper lid 3 is lifted, and The engagement may be released, and the lid 3 may be rotated about 180 ° rearward as shown in FIG. 5 so as to be supported by the support portion 7b of the tray 7.

e. Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, a storage portion that is above the middle portion in the vertical direction of the box body and is covered with a lid that swings back and forth, and a tray that can be pulled out to the rear of the vehicle body from below the bottom surface of the storage portion The lid is equipped with an upper lid and a lower lid, the rear ends of which are fixed to the box body at the same time, so that the upper lid and the lower lid are turned rearward around the fulcrum of the rear end, and the Hunronto seat A seated person can easily store and remove articles from the storage section. In addition, the upper lid is inverted above the tray pulled out in the vehicle body language with the storage part covered with the lower lid, and the upper lid can be supported by the tray support part, so that the tray is pulled backward and only the upper lid is inverted rearward Then, only by supporting the tray on the supporting portion of the tray, the seat occupant of the front seat can use the lower lid and the seat occupant of the rear seat can use the upper lid as a table which is kept horizontally, thereby improving the usability.

Further, the inside of the console box is divided into upper and lower tiers, and a tray having substantially the same area as the upper storage portion is provided in the lower tier, so that a large article is stored in the tray as compared with the conventional example. become able to.
