BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle which is provided in a center console of, for example, a passenger car and which can support a cylindrical container such as a drink can of juice or the like so as not to fall and accommodate small items. It is related to the accessory case.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing an example of a conventional vehicle accessory case. In FIG. 7, C indicates a center console, and a concave portion D having a rectangular flat cross-section is formed in the central portion.
Is provided. Reference symbol L denotes a parking brake lever, which is provided in the center console C portion side by side with the recess D.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a vehicle accessory case, the outside of which is formed in the same rectangular flat cross section as the recess D provided in the center console C, and is inserted and fixed in the recess D. And the inner direction in the lateral direction is the diameter of 65 m of the drink can A of 350 ml.
Slightly longer than m, the inner lengthwise direction is drink can A
The length is slightly longer than twice the 65 mm diameter.

The vehicle accessory case 1 thus constructed is
Insert two 350 ml drink cans A side by side to get 2
The drink can A of the book can be accommodated and supported so as not to fall.

FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing another example of a conventional vehicle accessory case. In FIG. 8, reference numeral 2 denotes a drink container holder as a vehicle accessory case, which is inserted and fixed in a recess provided in the center console like the vehicle accessory case 1 in FIG. And the drink container holder 2 is 3
A case body 2a having a concave portion 2ad having a diameter of about 68 mm, which supports the lower portion of the 50 ml drink can A,
The lid 2b is attached to the upper part of the case body 2a and has a push-push type locking mechanism for opening and closing the upper surface of the case body 2a.

[0006] The drink container holder 2 configured as described above
When the lower part of the drink can A is inserted into the recess 2ad with the lid 2b opened, one drink can A can be accommodated and supported so as not to fall down.

FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing still another example of a conventional vehicle accessory case. In FIG. 9, reference numeral 3 denotes a vehicle accessory case, which is inserted and fixed in a recess provided in the center console like the vehicle accessory case 1 of FIG. The vehicle accessory case 3 is rotatably attached to the case body 3a and the inner surface of the case body 3a, and is supported by the inner surface of the case body 3a facing the middle of the 350 ml drink can A in a horizontal state. So that, for example, a diameter of 68

and b.

The vehicle accessory case 3 thus constructed is
When the rotation support plate 3b is rotated to a horizontal state and the drink can A is inserted into the space formed by the rotation support plate 3b and the inner surface of the case body 3a opposed to each other, one drink can is formed. A can be accommodated and supported so as not to fall. By rotating the rotation support plate 3b in the suspended state, the inside of the case body 3a can be widened to accommodate small items.

[0009]

The conventional vehicle accessory case, that is, the vehicle accessory case 1 shown in FIG.
By inserting two ml of the drink can A, the two drink cans A can be accommodated and supported so as not to move and to be moved. However, the diameter of a 250 ml drink can is 53
Since it is mm, if you insert two 250 ml drink cans into the vehicle accessory case 1, you can not support the drink can so that it will not move, so it is unstable even if it does not fall, and drink cans while traveling There are collisions,
When the drink can collides with the vehicle accessory case 1, a rattling sound is generated.

If only one 350 ml drink can A or 250 ml drink can is accommodated in the vehicle accessory case 1, there will be more empty space around the drink can, and the drink can may become unstable and fall. At the same time, the drink can collides with the vehicle accessory case 1 and a rattling sound is generated.

Next, the drink container holder 2 shown in FIG.
Since the concave portion 2ad is provided, it becomes difficult to insert other small items. And, if a 250 ml drink can is accommodated, the empty space around the drink can increases, and the drink can becomes unstable.
A rattling sound is produced when you hit the.

Further, the vehicle accessory case 3 shown in FIG.
When a 250 ml drink can is stored, the empty space around the drink can increases, so the drink can becomes unstable and may fall, and the drink can collides with the vehicle accessory case 3 and becomes rattling. Sound is generated. Then, since it is necessary to rotate the rotation support plate 3b in the horizontal state or the hanging state in correspondence with the case of accommodating the drink can and the case of accommodating the small item, the operation of rotating the rotation support plate 3b is not performed. It becomes annoying.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned inconvenience, and it is possible to accommodate cylindrical containers having different diameters while being supported so as not to fall down.
The present invention provides a vehicle accessory case capable of accommodating small articles.
