Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a holder mounted on a vehicle, and more particularly to a carrier storage type holder suitable for holding a long object such as a fishing rod.
[0002]
[Prior art]
At present, the fishing population is said to reach several million people, and it is frequently done to go to fishing grounds using automobiles.
When a car is used in this way, when it arrives at a fishing spot, the fishing rod is taken out of the car, and preparations for fishing are made, such as passing the thread through the fishing pole, and then the fishing pole is taken out to the fishing spot.
[0003]
In preparation for fishing such as passing a thread through a fishing rod, a method of attaching a fishing rod carrier as shown in JP-A-9-294516 to an automobile or the like and fixing the fishing rod to the rod mounting portion of the fishing rod carrier is a method of performing the preparation. Are known.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the above-described work has the following problems.
That is, as a first problem, even if the fishing rod carrier shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-294516 is used, the fishing rod is a long object and has an elastic force, so that only the rod mounting portion is used. Therefore, it is difficult to stop the fishing rod itself (especially, it is difficult to stop the tip of the rod), so that preparation for passing the fishing line through the fishing rod remains difficult. In addition, there is an obstacle that only the fishing rod on which the reel can be mounted can correspond to the fishing rod carrier.
[0005]
As a second problem, in the case of a fishing rod to which a reel cannot be mounted, there is no place for the fishing rod itself. For this reason, the fishing rod is often placed on the ground or leaned against an automobile. For this reason, there has been a problem that the fishing rod is damaged by stepping on the fishing rod placed on the ground or by pinching the fishing rod that is leaning against the door of the automobile. By the way, a load holding member for a roof described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-6864 is known as a means for solving the problem of storing a fishing rod, but this has a hollow portion of a connecting rail as a container for a long object. Although it is possible to store a (compact) fishing rod before assembly, it cannot accommodate a fishing rod after assembly (longer than the hollow portion with a so-called fishing line attached). The risk of damage still exists.
[0006]
Further, as a third problem, when other tools other than fishing rods are placed on the ground, there is a risk of damage due to stepping, dirt, or loss.
An object of the present invention is to provide a carrier storage holder capable of easily holding a fishing rod or other article that is a long object, paying attention to the above-mentioned conventional problems.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the present invention, if a holder is provided inside the load carrying pipe and the holder is pulled out from the opening end of the load carrying pipe when necessary, a long object or the like is hooked on the holder along the longitudinal direction of the automobile. It was made based on the knowledge that it can be made.
[0008]
That is, the carrier storage type holder according to the present invention is a carrier storage type holder that is attached to an end of a load carrying pipe that is attached above the roof of an automobile, and can be attached to the opening end of the load carrying pipe. And a bar holder that is slidably connected to the holder main body and telescopically accommodated inside the load carrying pipe. A hinge portion is provided in the middle of the bar holder, and is provided on the tip side following the hinge portion. Is provided with a swing arm, and the swing arm is provided with a swingable drawer hook that is accommodated within its thickness.
[0009]
In addition, it is preferable to provide a drawing spring that is in contact with the swing arm and the pull-out hook so that the pull-out hook can be pulled out from the swing arm by urging the pull-out spring.
[0010]
[Action]
According to the present invention configured as described above, usually, a plurality of load carrying pipes are attached so as to bridge a pair of roof rails attached to the roof of the automobile. Here, the holder main body is attached to the opening ends of the plurality of load carrying pipes, and the bar holder connected to the holder main body is telescopically stored in the load carrying pipe. If the fishing rod is pulled out from the end portion, the fishing rod can be supported by a number of drawing hooks, and the fishing rod can be stably held. And since the fishing rod is held by the pull-out hook pulled out from the load carrying pipe, the height from the ground can be secured, so that the fishing rod will not be stepped on as if it was placed on the ground surface, Thus, the fishing rod can be prevented from being damaged. Since the direction of extension of the load carrying pipe is perpendicular to the width direction of the automobile, that is, the longitudinal direction (traveling direction) of the automobile, the fishing rod is held along the longitudinal direction of the automobile. For this reason, even if the length of the fishing rod is longer than the total length of the automobile, the amount of protrusion from the outer edge of the automobile can be minimized, so that the possibility of damage to the fishing rod due to the protrusion can be minimized.
[0011]
By the way, since a hinge part is provided in the middle of the bar holder and a stopper mechanism is provided in the hinge part, after the bar holder is pulled out from the load carrying pipe, the swing arm is rotated around the hinge part, and the swing arm The stopper mechanism is operated and fixed at a position where the extending direction is substantially along the side of the automobile. If the swing arm is rotated around the hinge portion in this way, for example, in the case of an automobile with a vehicle height, the swing arm can be lowered from the height of the load carrying pipe, so the working height can be lowered. The bar holder can easily hold the fishing rod. Furthermore, since the swinging arm can be moved along the side of the car by rotating the hinge, the fishing rod can be held as if it is stacked along the swinging arm. Can be easily.
[0012]
Since the pulling hook is provided on the swing arm, the fishing rod can be held only by the configuration of the bar holder, and the fishing rod holding procedure can be simplified. If the support pin is provided on the holder body side of the drawer hook, when the bar holder is stored in the luggage mounting pipe, it is not necessary to individually store the drawer hook in the bar holder, and the bar holder is stored in the luggage mounting pipe, The pull-out hook can rotate around the support pin by being in contact with the holder body or the opening edge of the load carrying pipe and can be stored in the bar holder.
[0013]
Furthermore, if a pull-out spring is provided that is in contact with the swing arm and the pull-out hook and urges around the support pin, the pull-out hook swings by the urging force of the pull-out spring when the bar holder is pulled out from the load carrying pipe. Since it is pulled out from the arm, it is not necessary to pull out the pull-out hook manually, and the fishing rod holding procedure can be simplified.
[0014]
In addition, the bar holder provided in this way can also hold articles other than fishing rods (specifically, fishing vests, portable ashtrays, etc.). If these articles are hooked on the bar holder, Dirt, loss, etc. can be prevented.
[0015]

In FIG. 8, a pair of load carrying pipes 14 are attached to the roof of the automobile 12. However, it is not necessary to stick to this form, and the number of load carrying pipes 14 is two depending on the size and weight of the load to be loaded. What is necessary is just to set it above (3 or 4 etc.). Furthermore, in the same figure, the cross-sectional shape of the load carrying pipe 14 is rectangular. However, if the bar holder described later can be accommodated, the cross-sectional shape may be another shape typified by a round shape. Good. Also, the load carrying pipe 14 is capable of attaching a load such as a bicycle or ski to the upper portion thereof, and is used for loading the load on the roof of the automobile 12.
[0017]
The carrier storage type holder 10 is attached to the opening end portion 16 of the load carrying pipe 14. The carrier storage type holder 10 includes a holder main body 18 that can be attached to the opening end portion 16, and the holder main body 18. 18 and a bar holder 20 that is slidably connected to the inside of the load carrying pipe 14 and can be telescopically accommodated. Note that the overall length of the bar holder 20 is set to a length that fits within the depth of the hollow portion of the load carrying pipe 14.
[0018]
The outer shape of the holder main body 18 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and a through hole 22 is provided so as to penetrate the rectangular parallelepiped shape. The through hole 22 is set to a size that allows the above-described bar holder 20 to be taken in and slidable. Further, on one side of the surface of the holder main body 18 where the through hole 22 is exposed, a step 24 corresponding to the outer shape of the load carrying pipe 14 at the edge portion of the through hole 22 (refer to the cross section of the holder main body 18 in FIG. 4 or FIG. 7). ) And the opening tip of the load carrying pipe 14 described above is inserted into the step 24, thereby positioning the load carrying pipe 14 and the holder main body 18, and the hollow portion of the load carrying pipe 14 and the through hole The holes 22 are arranged on the extension lines of each other. For fixing both, a flat screw 26 is screwed into a plate nut 26 attached to a configuration surface corresponding to the side portion of the through hole 22 in the holder main body 18, and the side wall of the load carrying pipe 14 is attached to the tip of the flat screw 28. It is done by pressing.
[0019]
A lever pin 30 is inserted into the holder body 18 so as not to intersect with the through hole 22 and to be orthogonal to the through hole 22, and the lever pin 30 restricts movement of the bar holder 20 inserted through the through hole 22. A lock lever 32 is pivotally supported. That is, the lock lever 32 is provided with a handle portion 34 for rotating the lock lever 32 and a projection portion 36 that interferes with the region on the through hole 22 side by the rotation of the lock lever 32. The bar holder 20 can be fixed to the holder main body 18 by rotating the lock lever 32 by moving 34 and pressing the protruding portion 36 against the outer wall of the bar holder 20 inserted through the through hole 22. In order to slide the bar holder 20 with respect to the holder body 18, the handle portion 34 is moved in the direction opposite to that when the bar portion 20 is fixed, and the lock lever 32 is rotated in the reverse direction so You can make it.
[0020]
The bar holder 20 inserted through the through hole 22 of the holder main body 18 is attached to a pull-out arm 38 having a rectangular cross section which is pulled out from the opposite side of the holder main body 18 where the step 24 is formed, and a leading end of the pull-out arm 38. And a swing arm 42 connected via a hinge 40. The drawer arm 38 and the swing arm 42 have the same cross-sectional shape and material, except for the total length. Needless to say, the cross-sectional shape of these arms is set smaller than the cross-sectional shape of the hollow portion of the load carrying pipe 14 as described above.
[0021]
The drawer arm 38 is made of a metal rectangular frame, and its outer shape is formed so as to follow the outer shape of the through hole 22 formed in the holder body 18, and is inserted through the through hole 22 to extend in the longitudinal direction of the drawer arm 38. It is possible to slide along. A stopper 44 is provided on the opposite side of the drawer arm 38 to which the hinge part 40 is attached. A stopper 44 is provided to prevent the stopper 44 from being pulled out when the drawer arm 38 is pulled out to the hinge part 40 side. Prevents the pull-out arm 38 from coming out of the holder body 18.
[0022]
A hinge portion 40 for swinging the swing arm 42 is provided at the opposite end portion of the drawer arm 38 to which the stopper 44 for preventing the removal is attached. The hinge portion 40 is composed of a concave block 48 and a convex block 50 which are pin-coupled by a hinge pin 46, and these blocks are fixed to the ends of the pull-out arm 38 and the swing arm 42. A plug 52 having an outer shape corresponding to the opening shape of the arm is provided. Then, after inserting the insertion portion 52 into the end portions of the drawing arm 38 and the swinging arm 42, if the fixing pin 54 is inserted through the fixing holes 56 so as to penetrate these arms, the fixing The arm 54 and the insertion portion 52 are fixed by the pin 54, and the pull-out arm 38 and the swing arm 42 can be connected via the hinge portion 40.
[0023]
Incidentally, a tapered surface 58 serving as a stopper mechanism is formed on one of the concave block 48 and the convex block 50 in the hinge portion 40 (see FIGS. 4 and 7), and the convex block 50 is rotated around the hinge pin 46. (See arrow 60 in FIG. 7), the outer shape of the convex block 50 comes into contact with the tapered surface 58 provided on the concave block 48 side, and the drawer arm 38 and the swing arm are set at a preset angle. 42 can be held. By setting the taper surface 58, the drawer arm 38 and the swing arm 42 can be held at an arbitrary angle. With this, the angle of the swing arm 42 with respect to the drawer arm 38 drawn horizontally can be set to, for example, the automobile 12. In this way, the extending direction of the swing arm 42 is substantially along the side of the automobile 12 so that a long object such as a bag described later can be easily hooked. Further, in FIG. 7 (and FIG. 4), the swinging arm 42 is flipped up in the direction of the arrow 60 with respect to the drawer arm 38, and the angle of the tapered surface 58 is set so as to position the swinging arm 42. In the case of the automobile 12, the position of the swing arm 42 becomes too high, which may make it difficult to latch a long object. However, in such a case, if the angle of the tapered surface 58 is changed and the swing arm 42 is rotated downward (opposite to the arrow 60), the swing arm 42 is lowered and the swing arm 42 is extended. The direction can be held so as to be substantially along the side of the automobile 12.
[0024]
The swing arm 42 attached to the drawer arm 38 via the hinge portion 40 is provided with a cap 62 at the foremost end, and the bar holder 20 can be pulled out from the holder body 18 by grasping and pulling out the cap 62. Yes.
[0025]
By the way, two holes 64 are provided in the middle part of the swing arm 42 along the longitudinal direction of the swing arm 42, and a support pin 66 is inserted near the hinge 40 in the hole 64. . A pull-out hook 68 is pivotally supported on the support pin 66, and the pull-out hook 68 is rotated from the inside of the hole 64 to the outside of the swing arm 42 by rotating the pull-out hook 68 around the support pin 66. The long object can be hooked by holding the long object with the pull-out hook 68 and the swing arm 42. The drawer hook 68 is formed thinner than the thickness of the swing arm 42. Therefore, when the drawer hook 68 is stored in the hole 64, the drawer hook 68 is stored in the swing arm 42.
[0026]
A pull-out spring 70 in the form of a torsion coil spring is attached to the support pin 68. One end of the pull-out spring 70 is hooked on the pull-out hook 68 and the other end is hooked on the swing arm 42. Thus, a rotational force (biasing force) around the support pin 68 is generated, and the pull-out hook 68 can be voluntarily raised from the inside of the hole 64 by this rotational force.
[0027]
The direction in which the swing arm 42 is rotated with respect to the drawer arm 38 is determined by factors such as the difference in vehicle height of the automobile 12, for example. In this case, the direction of the drawer hook 68 with respect to the hole 64 and the drawer spring Since the direction of the urging force 70 is on the opposite side, the direction may be changed depending on the type of the automobile 12.
[0028]
A procedure for mounting the carrier-accommodating holder thus configured on the roof of an automobile and holding or hanging a long object such as a fishing rod or other tools will be described.
FIG. 3 shows a state diagram in which the bar holder in the carrier storage type holder is housed in the load carrying pipe, and FIG. 4 shows a sectional view of the load carrying pipe in FIG. As shown in these drawings, the bar holder 20 is housed inside the load carrying pipe 14. In this state, the pull-out hook 68 provided on the swing arm 42 (in the bar holder 20) comes into the inside of the hole 64 by contacting the inner wall of the load carrying pipe 14 and fits inside the swing arm 42. ing. Since the pulling spring 70 is mounted on the support pin 66, the pulling hook 68 always presses the inner wall of the load carrying pipe 14 by this spring biasing force.
[0029]
From the state described above, the bar holder 20 is pulled out and the carrier storage type holder is exposed from the load carrying pipe 14 by the following procedure.
That is, FIG. 5 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the bar holder 20 is pulled out from the holder main body 18 and the load carrying pipe 14. In order to pull out the bar holder 20 from the holder main body 18 and the load carrying pipe 14 as shown in the figure, first, the handle portion 34 of the lock lever 32 is moved, and the protrusion 36 is separated from the bar holder 20. Thus, when the protrusion 36 and the bar holder 20 are separated from each other, the bar holder 20 can slide with respect to the holder main body 14. After the bar holder 20 is made slidable, the cap 62 attached to the tip of the swing arm 42 in the bar holder 20 is grasped, and the cap 62 is pulled out along the extending direction of the load carrying pipe 14. When the bar holder 20 is pulled out through the cap 62 in this way, the bar holder 20 is telescopically stored with respect to the load carrying pipe 14 and thus is exposed to the outside while sliding the holder body 18. When the bar holder 20 is pulled out from the load carrying pipe 14, the stopper 44 for preventing the stopper 44 comes into contact with the step 24 in the holder main body 18, and the pull-out amount of the bar holder 20 is limited. When this state is reached, the lock lever 32 is moved again in the direction opposite to the previous direction, and the protrusion 36 is brought into contact with the surface of the bar holder 20. Thus, the bar holder 20 can be fixed to the holder body 18 by bringing the protrusion 36 into contact with the bar holder 20.
[0030]
When the bar holder 20 is pulled out from the load carrying pipe 14, the urging force by the pulling spring 70 applied to the pulling hook 68 provided on the swing arm 42 is released, so that the pulling hook 68 rotates around the support pin 66. , Protruding from the swing arm 42.
[0031]
In order to make it possible to hold a long object such as a fishing rod by flipping up the bar holder 20 from the state described above, the following procedure is used.
That is, FIG. 6 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the swing arm 42 is flipped up with respect to the pull-out arm 38, and FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the carrier storage type holder and the load carrying pipe in the state of FIG.
[0032]
As shown in these drawings, after the bar holder 20 is pulled out and fixed by the lock lever 32, the swing arm 42 is flipped upward with the hinge pin 46 in the hinge portion 40 as the rotation center. When the swing arm 42 is rotated about the hinge pin 46 in this way, the tapered surface 58 provided on one of the concave block 48 and the convex block 50 comes into contact with the outer shape of the other block, and the rotation is restricted. The rotation angle is maintained. This rotation angle is set so that the extending direction of the swing arm is substantially along the side of the automobile, so that a long object 72 such as a fishing rod is hooked on a drawer hook 68 provided on the swing arm. Then, the long object 72 such as the fishing rod can be held as if stacked along the side of the automobile, and the work of taking out and removing the long object 72 such as the fishing rod can be facilitated. It should be noted that if the article other than the long object 72 such as a fishing rod is also hooked on the drawer hook 68, it is possible to prevent damage, dirt or loss.
[0033]
Then, it is not necessary to hold the long object 72 such as a fishing rod, and when the bar holder 20 is stored in the load carrying pipe 14, after removing the long object 72 such as a fishing rod from the pull-out hook 68, the swing arm 42 is moved to the arrow. The drawer arm 38 and the swing arm 42 are rotated in a direction opposite to the direction 60. Then, after the bar holder 20 is brought into a straight state in this way, the lock lever 32 is moved to make the bar holder 20 slidable and the cap 62 is pushed in along the extending direction of the load carrying pipe 14, and the bar holder 20 is pushed into the load carrying pipe 14. Store inside. After the bar holder 20 is stored, the lock holder 32 may be rotated to fix the bar holder 20. Since the support pin 66 that pivotally supports the drawer hook 68 is provided on the holder body 18 side, the drawer hook 68 comes into contact with the load carrying pipe 14 when rotating the bar holder 20 and rotates inside the hole 64.
