Description

  The present invention relates to a container having an opening / closing lid, and more particularly, to a container having a removable attachment / detachment lid for opening / closing an opening provided in the opening / closing lid.

  Various types of containers having an open / close lid are conventionally known, such as cooler boxes used in various leisure activities. Such a container is provided with an openable / closable lid at the opening of the container body so that the container object can be accommodated in the container body or the container object can be taken out from the container body. However, for example, so that the object to be stored can be taken in and out of the container body in a place where there is no space for opening and closing the opening / closing lid, or in a cooler box etc. Some have an opening in the opening / closing lid and a removable lid that opens and closes the opening.

  A container provided with such an attachment / detachment lid in addition to the opening / closing lid is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. The container disclosed in Patent Document 1 has a configuration in which an opening for inputting fish or the like is formed in an opening / closing lid of a container body, and the opening is covered with an attaching / detaching lid. Specifically, the detachable lid fits into the opening of the opening / closing lid and can be opened / closed from either the left or right side of the container body (opening / closing lid). A pair of support shafts for rotatably supporting the lid are located on the left and right sides of the opening, and are provided on the opening / closing lid.

  The detachable lid has a placement portion placed on the left and right support shafts of the open / close lid, and claw pieces for sandwiching the support shaft between the placement portions on the left and right sides, respectively. Each mounting portion has a U-shaped groove that can be detachably engaged with the support shaft from above the corresponding support shaft, and the left and right claw pieces are a pair of left and right provided on the attachment / detachment lid. It can be moved in the horizontal direction by a sliding operation of the operation portion, and is always urged outward by a spring toward a holding position where the support shaft is held between the operation portion and the mounting portion.

  Therefore, while holding the pair of left and right operation parts with fingers and retracting the nail pieces inside the attachment / detachment lid, place the attachment part of the attachment / detachment cover on the shaft of the opening / closing cover and place the attachment / detachment cover in the opening of the opening / closing cover. When the operating force of the finger gripping the operating portion is released in this state, the claw piece moves horizontally outward by the biasing force of the spring and the support shaft is placed between the mounting portion and placed on the shaft. Thus, the detachable lid is prevented from being detached from the opening of the opening / closing lid.

  Also, in this state of preventing detachment, if you slide only the left operation part and retract the left claw piece from the left support shaft and rotate the attachment / detachment lid around the right support shaft as it is, the attachment / detachment starts from the left side. The lid can be opened. Conversely, if the right claw piece is retracted from the right support shaft by sliding only the right operation section and the attachment / detachment cover is rotated around the left support shaft as it is, the attachment / detachment cover can be opened from the right side.

JP-A-10-262534

  By the way, in the above-described conventional container provided with the detachable lid in addition to the open / close lid, the left and right support shafts are provided on the open / close lid, and the left and right support shafts cross the opening of the open / close lid when the removable cover is opened. When the object to be accommodated is accommodated in the container body through the opening of the opening / closing lid, or when the object to be retrieved is taken out from the container body through the opening of the opening / closing lid, the support shaft is In some cases, it may be in the way and it is not possible to smoothly put in and out of the object. For example, when such a container is used as a cooler box for fishing, the support shaft becomes a hindrance and the fish cannot be thrown in well through the opening of the opening / closing lid, or a fishing hook is caught on the support shaft. Problems that are specific to the application, such as tangling, can also occur.

  Therefore, as one method for solving such a problem, a support shaft is provided not on the opening / closing lid but on the attachment / detachment lid, and the support shaft is, for example, connected to and disengaged from, for example, an engagement groove on the opening / closing lid side. It is also conceivable to be able to move in the horizontal direction. With such a configuration, when the detachable lid is opened, the support shafts on both sides do not extend across the opening of the opening / closing lid as in the conventional case, and thus the opening can be secured larger than in the past. At the same time, when the detachable lid is opened and the object to be stored is accommodated in the container body through the opening of the opening / closing lid, or when the object to be stored is taken out from the container body through the opening of the opening / closing lid, the support shaft is obstructed. In other words, it is possible to smoothly put in and out the accommodation object.

  However, in this configuration in which the support shaft is movably provided on the detachable lid, even if the support shaft is engaged with the engagement groove, the support shaft is simply fitted into the engagement groove from the horizontal direction. Therefore, there is a possibility that the support shaft may be detached from the engagement groove in the horizontal direction when the detachable lid is rotated around the support shaft.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to the above-described problems, and allows the detachable detachable lid to open and close the opening of the opening / closing lid, while ensuring a large opening and taking in / out the object to be stored. It is an object of the present invention to provide a container that can be smoothly performed without obstructing the opening and closing of the pivot support between the opening / closing lid and the detachable lid when the detachable lid is opened (rotated).

In order to achieve the above-described object, the container of the present invention includes a container body that defines a predetermined storage space, an opening / closing lid for opening / closing the opening of the container body, and an opening provided in the opening / closing lid. A detachable lid detachably attached to the opening for opening and closing; a support shaft provided on each side of the detachable cover and movable between a first position and a second position; and the support shaft The opening / closing lid is provided on both sides of the opening corresponding to each of the openings, and the detachable lid is engaged with the support shaft positioned at the second position in a state of being attached to the opening. A mating groove, selectively engaging one of the support shafts with the corresponding engagement groove, and turning the detachable lid around the engaged support shaft, Before the opening is selectively opened and closed on both sides and centered on the support shaft Further comprising a restricting means for restricting the disengagement from the engaging groove of the spindle during rotation of the detachable lid, said regulating means includes a first restricting portion provided on one of the detachable lid or the lid And a second restriction portion provided on the other of the detachable lid and the opening / closing lid, and the first restriction portion and the second restriction in a state where the detachable lid is attached to the opening. and part is characterized that you restrict detachment of the support shaft from the engaging groove when the rotation of the detachable lid by engaging with each other.

  In the above configuration, when the detachable lid is attached to the opening of the opening / closing lid, the opening of the opening / closing lid is closed by the detachable lid. Further, when the supporting shafts on both sides of the detachable lid are respectively positioned at the second position and engaged with the corresponding engaging grooves in the closed state, the detachable lid is fixed to the opening / closing lid so as not to be removable. Then, in this fixed state, if one of the support shafts is moved to the first position and retracted from the engagement groove, and the detachable lid is rotated around the other support shaft, the one side Can open the opening (detachable lid). On the contrary, if the support shaft on the other side is moved to the first position and retracted from the engagement groove, and the detachable lid is rotated around the support shaft on the one side as it is, the opening from the other side is performed. The part (detachable lid) can be opened. That is, according to the said structure, the double opening of the detachable detachable lid which opens and closes the opening part of an open / close lid is realizable.

  In addition, according to the above configuration, since the support shafts on both sides are provided not on the opening / closing lid but on the attachment / detachment lid, when the attachment / detachment lid is opened, the both support shafts cross the opening of the opening / closing lid as in the prior art. Therefore, it is possible to secure a larger opening than in the prior art and to open the detachable lid and accommodate the object to be stored in the container body through the opening of the opening / closing lid, or through the opening of the opening / closing lid. When the object to be stored is taken out from the container body, the support shaft does not get in the way, and the object to be stored can be smoothly put in and out. In particular, when such a container is used as a cooler box for fishing, there is a situation where the support shaft becomes a hindrance and the fish cannot be thrown in well through the opening of the opening / closing lid, or a fishing hook is caught on the support shaft. It is possible to surely avoid situations such as tangling.

  Further, according to the above configuration, since the restricting means for restricting the detachment of the support shaft from the engagement groove when the attachment / detachment cover is rotated around the support shaft engaged with the engagement groove is provided. During the opening (turning) operation, the shaft support engagement state between the opening / closing lid and the detachable lid is not released, and a stable and reliable turning operation of the detachable lid can be realized.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, opening and closing of the opening / closing lid | cover which can be opened and closed is possible, and opening of a detachable lid | cover can be performed smoothly, ensuring a large opening part and without taking in and out of an accommodation target object. In addition, it is possible to provide a container that prevents the shaft support engagement state between the open / close lid and the detachable lid from being released when the detachable lid is opened (turned).

Hereinafter, one embodiment of a container provided with an opening-and-closing lid concerning the present invention is described. In the following description, for convenience, two directions in a horizontal plane indicated by arrows in FIG. 1 are defined as a vertical direction and a horizontal direction, respectively. In addition, a direction (indicated by an arrow in FIG. 1) orthogonal to these directions is defined as a vertical direction. Further, in the present invention (over the entire specification), both sides mean both sides along the vertical direction or the horizontal direction.
As shown in FIG. 1, the container 1 according to the present embodiment opens and closes a container body 2 that defines a storage space of a predetermined volume that can store an object to be stored, and an upper opening of the container body 2. Open / close lid 4. The opening / closing lid 4 is provided with an opening 4a that is biased toward a predetermined position, for example, one side of the upper surface thereof, and a detachable lid 10 for opening and closing the opening 4a is detachably attached to the opening 4a. Note that a handle 50 that is used by holding the container 1 by hand to carry the container 1 is installed on the opening / closing lid 4 or the container body 2 (opening / closing lid 4 in the figure) over both sides (in the figure, both sides along the horizontal direction). It is provided to be movable.

  The detachable lid 10 of the present embodiment is fitted into the opening 4a of the opening / closing lid 4 so that the opening 4a can be opened / closed from both the left and right sides (both can be opened). Hereinafter, a specific configuration of the detachable lid 10 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the detachable lid 10 is slidably accommodated in an upper lid 10A, a box-shaped lower lid 10B that forms a recessed space 14 inside, and a recessed space 14 of the lower lid 10B. A pair of slide plates 20 and 22 is provided. The upper lid 10A is detachably fixed to the lower lid 10B, and the fixing form may be any form. The pair of slide plates 20 and 22 are arranged to face each other with a predetermined gap G in the longitudinal direction of the detachable lid 10 so as to be close to each other or separated from each other by the gap G (detachable lid). In the state in which 10 is positioned horizontally, it can slide in the horizontal direction (vertical direction) indicated by an arrow in FIG.

  Each slide plate 20 (22) has a support shaft 25A (25B) at its outer end in the vertical direction, and an operating portion 20a (22a) at its inner end in the vertical direction. The support shaft 25A (25B) is supported on both sides in the lateral direction by shaft support members 20b, 20c (22b, 22c) provided on both sides in the lateral direction of the outer end of each slide plate 20 (22). Between the first position (the position shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B) and the second outer position (the position shown in FIG. 3) together with the slide plate 20 (22) (the detachable lid 10 is It can move horizontally (when placed horizontally). That is, the detachable lid 10 of the present embodiment is configured to include support shafts 25A and 25B that can move horizontally (when the detachable lid 10 is positioned horizontally) on both sides (both sides along the vertical direction in the drawing). ing.

  Further, the operation portion 20a (22a) is configured as a frame body that protrudes, for example, in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape from the flat plate-like main body of the slide plate 20 (22), and the inner cavity portion S is defined between the operation portions 20a and 22a. The inner end is open so as to face each other. The slide plates 20 and 22 are constantly urged outward in the cavity S between the operation portions 20a and 22a facing each other, in other words, the support shafts 25A and 25B on both sides are moved to the second position. A spring 30 is provided as an urging means that constantly urges toward. The spring 30 is inserted between the operation portions 20a and 22a, and both ends thereof are supported by outer end walls of the operation portions 20a and 22a, for example, so that the spring 30 extends in the vertical direction of the detachable lid 10.

  Therefore, in such a configuration, when the operation part 20a on one side is slid inward against the urging force of the spring 30 using the fingers of the hand, the support shaft 25A on the one side becomes the first inner side. When the finger is moved to the position and the operation force of the finger is released, the support shaft 25A is moved to the second outer position by the biasing force of the spring 30. Similarly, when the other side operation portion 22a is slid inward against the urging force of the spring 30, the other side support shaft 25B moves to the first inner position, and the operation of the finger is also performed. When the force is released, the support shaft 25B is moved to the second outer position by the biasing force of the spring 30. That is, in the present embodiment, the support shafts 25A and 25B on both sides can be individually moved in the horizontal direction between the first position and the second position by the operation portions 20a and 22a.

  In the state of FIG. 2A in which the upper lid 10A is mounted on the upper side of the lower lid 10B, the operation units 20a and 22a are exposed through the opening 15 of the upper lid 10A. Further, the upper cover 10A is provided with a cross member 12 extending so as to close the gap G between the operation portions 20a and 22a exposed through the opening 15. Therefore, according to this configuration, the operation portions 20a and 22a protruding from both sides (vertical sides) of the cross member 12 are pushed by a finger to open the operation portions 20a and 22a on the lower side of the cross member 12. Can be slid in.

  Further, in order to enable smooth movement of the operation units 20a and 22a, the operation units 20a and 22a are guided by the wall of the lower lid 10B. Specifically, each operation unit 20a, 22a has a bent portion 27 that bends in a substantially L shape on both sides in the lateral direction of the detachable lid 10, and this bent portion 27 is vertically formed on one side of the lower lid 10B. In the longitudinal passage formed between the outer wall 10Ba and the inner wall 10Bf extending in the direction and in the longitudinal passage formed between the outer wall 10Bb and the inner wall 10Bg extending in the longitudinal direction on the other side. As a result, the sliding movement of each operation unit 20a, 22a is guided in the vertical direction.

  Further, the outer end portions on both sides in the vertical direction of the lower lid 10B where the support shafts 25A and 25B are positioned are the outer end walls 10Bc and 10Bc on both sides extending in the lateral direction orthogonal to the outer walls 10Ba and 10Bb, Inner facing walls 10Bd, 10Bd extending in the vertical direction from the laterally inner ends of the end walls 10Bc, 10Bc toward the slide plates 20, 22 (vertically inside the detachable lid 10), and the inner facing walls 10Bd, 10Bd The inner end wall 10Be extending in the lateral direction so as to connect the two, the engagement portion 42 of the opening / closing lid 4 which will be described later in the state where the detachable lid 10 is fitted in the opening 4a of the opening / closing lid 4 (see FIG. 3 and FIG. 4) is formed.

  Further, the support shafts 25A and 25B on both sides located at the outer end portion of the lower lid 10B formed by such a wall extend long along the lateral direction of the detachable lid 10, and the inner opposing wall 10Bd The horizontal movement is guided while being placed on the upper end surface 19, and thereby the engagement groove 40 (the engagement groove 40 of the engagement portion 42 is surely secured in a stable state by the horizontal movement of the slide plates 20, 22 by the operation portions 20 a, 22 a. (See FIGS. 3 and 4).

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, engaging portions 42 are provided on both sides of the opening 4 a of the opening / closing lid 4 in the longitudinal direction, corresponding to the support shafts 25 </ b> A and 25 </ b> B, respectively. The engaging portion 42 is provided at a position where it engages with the support shafts 25A and 25B positioned at the second outer position in a state where the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening 4a. In addition, a pair of engaging portions 42 are provided on each side of the opening 4a, and the pair of engaging portions 42 and 42 are provided on the lower lid 10B with the detachable lid 10 attached to the opening 4a. Are laterally spaced from each other within a range that can be received in the above-described recess C at the outer end. The engaging portions 42 are formed integrally with the opening / closing lid 4 and extend toward the inside of the opening 4a. However, the engaging portions 42 may be provided separately from the opening / closing lid 4 and attached to the opening / closing lid 4. I do not care.

  Moreover, the engaging part 42 has the concave engaging groove 40 in the site | part which opposes support shaft 25A, 25B in the state in which the detachable cover 10 was attached to the opening part 4a. The engaging groove 40 is opened in the horizontal direction corresponding to the moving direction of the supporting shafts 25A and 25B moving in the horizontal direction, and the supporting shafts 25A and 25B are engaged relatively firmly with the supporting shafts 25A and 25B. It is set to an opening width dimension (a dimension in the vertical direction) that substantially matches the diameter of 25B. In the present embodiment, the inner back end face of the engagement groove 40 is formed in an arc shape in order to receive the support shafts 25A and 25B in a wide range and stabilize the rotation operation of the detachable lid 10. It need not be arcuate (eg, straight). In short, the shape of the engagement groove 40 can be arbitrarily set as long as it can be engaged with the support shafts 25A and 25B relatively firmly.

  Further, in the above-described configuration in which the support shafts 25A and 25B are provided on the detachable lid 10 so as to be horizontally movable, even if the support shafts 25A and 25B are engaged with the engagement grooves 40, the support shafts 25A and 25B are In the present embodiment, the support shafts 25A and 25B are moved away from the engagement grooves 40 when the detachable lid 10 is rotated around the support shafts 25A and 25B. Restricting means (a first example of the restricting means in the present embodiment) is provided so as not to deviate in the horizontal direction.

  Specifically, the restricting means for restricting the detachment of the support shafts 25A and 25B from the engaging groove 40 is a concave restricting groove 60 (as a first restricting portion provided on both side surfaces of the attaching / detaching lid 10). In particular, refer to FIG. 2) and, for example, a substantially cylindrical restriction protrusion 70 (see FIGS. 3, 4, and 6) as a second restriction portion provided on both sides in the lateral direction of the opening 4 a corresponding to the restriction groove 60. It consists of. The restricting projection 70 is formed integrally with the opening / closing lid 4, and the support shaft 25 </ b> A in a state in which the attachment / detachment cover 10 is attached to the opening 4 a (a state where the support shafts 25 </ b> A and 25 </ b> B are engaged with the engagement groove 40). , 25B and projecting into the opening 4a. The regulation groove 60 includes a linear open groove 60a formed in the outer walls 10Ba and 10Bb of the lower lid 10B, and a substantially semicircular closed end groove 60b of the upper lid 10A extending so as to be continuous with the open groove 60a. The open groove 60a is open at the upper and lower ends of the outer walls 10Ba and 10Bb without closing both ends. And the regulation groove 60 formed in this way engages with the regulation protrusion 70 through the lower end of the open groove part 60a when the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening part 4a ((b) of FIG. 6). reference). That is, the restriction protrusion 70 starts to engage with the linear open groove 60a first when the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening 4a. In addition, the reverse arrangement | positioning form of a control means is also considered. That is, the restriction groove 60 may be provided on both sides of the opening / closing lid 4 so as to face the opening 4 a, and the restriction protrusion 70 may be provided on both sides of the removable lid 10.

Next, the attachment and detachment with respect to the opening part 4a of the attachment / detachment lid 10 of the said structure and the opening / closing operation | movement of the attachment / detachment lid 10 are demonstrated.
First, when the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening 4a of the opening / closing lid 4, the operation units 20a and 22a are pushed inward so as to bring the operation units 20a and 22a closer to each other by using fingers of the hand. The support shafts 25A and 25B are moved to the first inner position (the position shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B) against the urging force of the spring 30 (the support shafts 25A and 25B are engaged with the engaging portion 42). Evacuate inward so as not to interfere with). In the retracted state, as shown in FIG. 5, the detachable lid 10 is fitted vertically into the opening 4a from above the opening 4a (the state indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 5). . As shown by the solid line in FIG. 5, when the detachable lid 10 is completely fitted into the opening 4 a, the regulating protrusion 70 and the regulating groove 60 of the regulating means are completely engaged, and the opening 4 a of the opening / closing lid 4. Is completely closed by the removable lid 10. When the operating force on the operating portions 20a and 22a is released in the closed state, the support shafts 25A and 25B on both sides of the detachable lid 10 are respectively moved to the second positions (shown in FIG. 3) by the urging force of the spring 30. To the engaging groove 40 of the corresponding engaging portion 42. Thereby, the detachable lid 10 is fixed to the opening / closing lid 4 so as not to be removable (state (d) indicated by a solid line in FIG. 5).

  Further, in this fixed state (state (d)), only the support shaft 25A on one side (for example, the hand side in FIG. 5) is moved to the first inner position by using the operation portion 20a and engaged therewith. If the detachable lid 10 is retracted from the groove 40 and rotated as it is around the support shaft 25B on the other side (the state indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 5 (A)), the opening 4a (the detachable lid 10 is shown) from one side. ) Can be opened. On the other hand, only the support shaft 25B on the other side (for example, the back side in FIG. 5) is moved to the first inner position by using the operation portion 22a and retracted from the engagement groove 40, and the detachable lid 10 is left as it is. If it is rotated around the support shaft 25A on one side, the opening 4a (detachable lid 10) can be opened from the other side. That is, according to this configuration, it is possible to realize the double opening of the detachable lid 10 that opens and closes the opening 4 a of the open / close lid 4.

  Further, during rotation of the detachable lid 10 (of course, even during non-rotation), the wall portion of the restriction groove 60 that engages with the restriction protrusion 70 is in the horizontal direction (support shaft from the engagement groove 40). The support shafts 25 </ b> A and 25 </ b> B do not disengage from the engagement groove 40 in the horizontal direction because they abut against the restricting protrusion 70 in the direction in which 25 </ b> A and 25 </ b> B are pulled out (see FIG. 6B). Therefore, a stable and reliable turning operation of the detachable lid 10 can be realized.

  In the state in which the detachable lid 10 is rotated, the support shaft 25A (25B) serving as the rotation fulcrum cannot be moved by the operation unit 20a (22a) (the operation unit cannot be slid). As shown in FIG. 10 (a), when an operation portion 20a (22a) corresponding to the rotation support shaft 25A (25B) is operated in a state where the detachable lid 10 is rotated, The sliding operation direction of the portion 20a (22a) (the moving direction of the support shafts 25A and 25B... The direction forming a predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal direction) and the opening direction (horizontal direction) of the engagement groove 40 are different (see FIG. 10 (b)), the support shaft 25A (25B) that engages with the engagement groove 40 abuts against the wall 42a of the engagement portion 42 that forms the engagement groove 40, and the operation portion 20a ( 22a) is prevented from being slid (in the example of FIG. 10A, the detachable lid 10 is rotated about the support shaft 25A, so that the operation portion 20a corresponding to the support shaft 25A is slid. Can not). Therefore, even if the above-described restricting means is not provided, it is possible to prevent erroneous operation of the operation portion 20a (22a) that causes the support shaft 25A (25B) to be detached from the engagement groove 40 during the rotation of the detachable lid 10. . Further, the operation block of the operation portion 20a (22a) accompanying the hooking of the support shaft 25A (25B) and the wall 42a of the engagement portion 42 is prevented by the engagement groove 40 as shown in FIG. This is possible because the groove depth dimension D has a certain size (at least a depth dimension sufficiently larger than the diameter dimension of the support shaft 25A (25B)). That is, the engagement groove 40 interferes with the support shaft 25A (25B) so as to prevent the operation of the operation portion 20a (22a) that moves the support shaft 25A (25B) serving as a rotation fulcrum when the detachable lid 10 is rotated. It is necessary to extend horizontally over such a length.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the support shafts 25A and 25B on both sides are provided not on the opening / closing lid 4 but on the attachment / detachment lid 10, so that when the attachment / detachment lid 10 is opened, The shaft does not extend so as to cross the opening 4 a of the opening / closing lid 4. Therefore, the opening 4 a can be secured larger than in the prior art, and the detachable lid 10 is opened and the container body 2 is opened through the opening 4 a of the opening / closing lid 4. When the object to be accommodated is accommodated therein, or when the object to be accommodated is taken out from the container main body 2 through the opening 4a of the opening / closing lid 4, the support shafts 25A and 25B are not obstructed, and the object to be accommodated is taken in and out. It can be done smoothly. In particular, when such a container 1 is used as a cooler box for fishing, the support shafts 25A and 25B are obstructed, and fish cannot be thrown in well through the opening 4a of the opening / closing lid 4, or the support shaft 25A. , 25B, it is possible to avoid a situation where a fishhook is caught or a device is entangled.

  Further, the container 1 of the present embodiment is a restriction that regulates the detachment of the support shaft from the engagement groove 40 when the detachable lid 10 is rotated around the support shaft 25A or 25B engaged with the engagement groove 40. Since the means is further provided, a stable and reliable rotation operation of the detachable lid 10 can be realized. Further, since the support shafts 25A and 25B extend long in the lateral direction of the detachable lid 10, for example, sufficient strength as a rotation shaft can be ensured as compared with a mere support protrusion or the like.

  FIG. 7 (a) shows a second embodiment of the restricting means described above. The restricting means of the second embodiment for restricting the detachment of the supporting shafts 25A and 25B from the engaging groove 40 is a first restricting portion provided on both sides of the detachable lid 10 (outer surfaces of the outer walls 10Ba and 10Bb). The first restricting protrusion 80 and the opening 4b corresponding to the first restricting protrusion 80 so as to be coaxial with the support shafts 25A and 25B in a state where the support shafts 25A and 25B are engaged with the engaging groove 40. The second restricting projections 70A as second restricting portions provided on both sides of the first and second restricting projections 70A and 80 are engaged with each other as shown in the state in which the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening 4a. It comes to match.

  Specifically, the second restricting protrusion 70A has a substantially columnar shape, and is formed integrally with the opening / closing lid 4, for example, so as to protrude into the opening 4a. On the other hand, the first restricting protrusion 80 has, for example, an angle range of 1/4 of the entire circumference of the second restricting protrusion 70A (that is, 90 °) with the detachable lid 10 attached to the opening 4a as illustrated. Is formed as an arc-shaped protrusion that engages with the outer periphery of the second restricting protrusion 70A over an angular range, and extends concentrically with the axes of the support shafts 25A and 25B.

  According to the restricting means having such a configuration, when the detachable lid 10 is rotated about one of the support shafts 25A (25B) (in FIG. 7A, it is rotated about the support shaft 25B), the first The first restricting protrusion 80 rotates with the detachable lid 10 along the outer peripheral surface of the second restricting protrusion 70A with respect to the second restricting protrusion 70A (the arrow in the enlarged circular area of FIG. 7A). And the second restricting protrusion 70A is brought into contact with the second restricting protrusion 70A at least in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the horizontal separation of the support shaft 25A (25B) from the engagement groove 40 is restricted.

  In addition, the extending angle range of the 1st control protrusion 80 extended in circular arc shape is not restricted to 90 degrees. The extension angle range of the first restricting protrusion 80 may be any angle range as long as the horizontal disengagement of the support shaft 25A from the engagement groove 40 is restricted and the support shaft 25A can rotate smoothly. .

  FIG. 7B shows a first modification of the second embodiment of the restricting means described in relation to FIG. As shown in the figure, in this modification, the first restricting protrusion 80A is L-shaped, and the two leg portions 91.92 forming the L-shape are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the second restricting protrusion 70A. The second restricting protrusion 70A is engaged so as to be applied. Even with such an L-shaped configuration, the same operations and effects as those of the second embodiment described above can be achieved.

  FIG. 7 (c) shows a second modification of the second embodiment of the restricting means described in relation to FIG. 7 (a). As shown in the figure, in this modification, the first restricting projection 80B is substantially L-shaped so that it can contact the second restricting protrusion 70A with a larger contact area than the first modified example. The connecting portions 93 of the two leg portions 91 and 92 forming the L-shape are bulged inward and engaged with the second restricting projection 70A so as to be brought into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the second restricting projection 70A. Even in such a substantially L-shaped configuration, the same operations and effects as those of the second embodiment described above can be achieved.

  FIG. 8 shows a third embodiment of the restricting means described above. The restricting means of the third embodiment for restricting the detachment of the supporting shafts 25A, 25B from the engaging groove 40 is a first restricting portion provided on both sides of the detachable lid 10 (outer surfaces of the outer walls 10Ba, 10Bb). Of the opening 4a corresponding to the restriction groove 83 so as to be eccentric from the axis O of the support shafts 25A and 25B in a state where the support shafts 25A and 25B are engaged with the engagement groove 40. The control protrusions 70B as the second control portions provided on both sides are engaged, and the control grooves 83 and the control projections 70B engage with each other as shown in the state in which the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening 4a. It is like that.

  Specifically, the regulation protrusion 70B has a substantially columnar shape, and is formed integrally with the opening / closing lid 4, for example, so as to protrude into the opening 4a. On the other hand, the restriction groove 83 is connected to the linear opening groove 83a that first starts to engage with the restriction protrusion 70B when the detachable lid 10 is attached to the opening 4a, and is connected to the opening groove 83a and the support shafts 25A and 25B. It comprises an arcuate closed end groove 83b concentrically extending with the axis O.

  According to the restricting means having such a configuration, when the detachable lid 10 rotates around one of the support shafts 25A (25B) (in FIG. 8, it rotates around the support shaft 25B), the restricting groove 83 is formed. Then, it rotates together with the detachable lid 10 so as to receive the restricting projection 70B in the arc-shaped closed end groove portion 83b (see FIG. 8C). Therefore, during rotation of the detachable lid 10 (of course, even during non-rotation), the wall portion of the restriction groove 83 that engages with the restriction protrusion 70B is in the horizontal direction (support shaft from the engagement groove 40). 25A and 25B (in the direction in which 25A and 25B are pulled out), but the support shafts 25A and 25B are engaged with each other (see FIG. 8B during non-rotation; see FIG. 8C during rotation). It does not come off from the groove 40 in the horizontal direction.

  In addition, the reverse arrangement | positioning form of a control means is also considered. That is, the regulation groove 83 may be provided on both sides of the opening / closing lid 4 so as to face the opening 4 a, and the regulation projection 70 </ b> B may be provided on both sides of the removable lid 10. The installation position of the restricting projection 70B can be arbitrarily set as long as it is a position along the arc of the closed end groove portion 83b. Further, the shape of the restricting protrusion 70B is not limited to the cylindrical shape, and may be, for example, a prismatic shape.

  FIG. 9 shows a fourth embodiment of the restricting means described above. The restricting means of the fourth embodiment for restricting the detachment of the supporting shafts 25A, 25B from the engaging groove 40 is formed in the engaging portion 42 of the opening / closing lid 4 having the engaging groove 40, and the engaging groove 40, the arc-shaped outer peripheral surface 42a serving as a first restricting portion extending concentrically with the shaft center of the support shafts 25A and 25B in a state where the support shafts 25A and 25B are engaged with each other, and both longitudinal ends of the detachable lid 10 And an arc-shaped protruding portion 89 as a second restricting portion having an arc-shaped inner peripheral surface that engages with the outer peripheral surface 42 a of the engaging portion 42, and these outer peripheral surface 42 a and arc-shaped protruding portion 89. Are engaged with each other as shown in the figure with the detachable lid 10 mounted on the opening 4a. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 9B, the engaging portion 42 is more lateral than the above-described embodiments and examples in order to increase the contact area with the arcuate protrusion 89. It extends for a long time. The arcuate protrusion 89 also has an arcuate outer peripheral surface so that it does not come into contact with other parts when the detachable lid 10 is rotated and the detachable lid can be smoothly rotated without detaching in the horizontal direction. It is formed.

  According to the restricting means having such a configuration, when the detachable lid 10 rotates around one of the support shafts 25A (25B), the arcuate protrusion 89 moves along the outer peripheral surface of the engaging portion 42. Then, it goes around the back side of the engaging portion 42 and comes into contact with the engaging portion 42 at least in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the horizontal separation of the support shaft 25A (25B) from the engagement groove 40 is restricted.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention can be variously modified and implemented in the range which does not deviate from the summary. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the first position and the second position of the support shafts 25A and 25B are the inner side and the outer side in the vertical direction of the detachable lid 10, but may be the inner side and the outer side in the horizontal direction. . In short, it is sufficient that the support shafts 25A and 25B are provided on both sides of the detachable lid 10 so that the detachable lid 10 can be opened in both directions. Further, the moving direction of the support shafts 25A and 25B is not limited to the horizontal direction. In the above-described embodiment, the configuration of the restricting means is also arbitrary. In short, as long as the removal of the support shafts 25A and 25B from the engaging groove 40 can be regulated during the rotation of the detachable lid 10, any regulation form may be used. Further, the position of the opening 4a with respect to the opening / closing lid 4, and thus the position of the detachable lid 10 can be arbitrarily set. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the urging means is the spring 30, but the urging means that constantly urges the support shafts 25A and 25B toward the second position is an elastic member or the like that can generate the urging force. Any member can be used.
