(Embodiment 1)
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the vehicle console structure (hereinafter, simply referred to as “console structure”) 1 of the first embodiment is provided between the driver's seat and the passenger seat of the vehicle. The console structure 1 includes a console panel portion 10 and a cup holder portion 20.

The console panel portion 10 is configured as a resin molded body made of a resin material. The console panel portion 10 has two circular upper surface openings 11 whose upper surfaces are all open. The two upper surface openings 11 are arranged adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

In the console panel portion 10, on the right side of the two upper surface openings 11, a lever opening 12 through which the lever shaft 31 of the shift lever 30 is inserted and an indicator 13 for displaying the shift position of the shift lever 30 are provided. There is.

The cup holder portion 20 is prepared separately from the console panel portion 10. By assembling the cup holder portion 20 to the console panel portion 10, an integrated console module is formed. The cup holder portion 20 is configured as a resin molded body made of a resin material like the console panel portion 10.

The cup holder portion 20 has two retainers 21 connected to each other via a connecting portion 23, and two trays 22 provided for each of the two retainers 21. The number of retainers 21 can be changed to one or three or more as needed.

The retainer 21 is configured as a concave accommodating portion (also referred to as a “cylindrical body” or a “holder body”) having an accommodating space 21a facing the upper surface opening 11. The storage space 21a is a space for storing containers such as drinks and cups (hereinafter, referred to as “beverage container”). The retainer 21 has a cylindrical side wall that partitions the accommodation space 21a. The retainer 21 may have a side wall having a square tubular shape or a polygonal tubular shape.

The two retainers 21 are arranged adjacent to each other at the same distance as the distance between the two upper surface openings 11 in the vehicle front-rear direction. Therefore, when the cup holder portion 20 is assembled to the console panel portion 10, the accommodating space 21a of one retainer 21 faces one of the two upper surface openings 11, and the accommodating space 21a of the other retainer 21 faces one of the two upper surface openings 11. It faces the other of the two top openings 11.

The tray 22 is a disk-shaped member having a diameter slightly smaller than the upper surface opening 11 of the console panel portion 10. The tray 22 has a function of supporting a beverage container introduced from the corresponding upper surface opening 11 and housed in the storage space 21a from below. Although the details will be described later, the tray 22 raises the accommodation space 21a of the retainer 21 by the tray elevating mechanism (see the tray elevating mechanism 29 in FIG. 4) at the ascending position P1 (see FIG. 2) and the descending position P2 (see FIG. 3). It is possible to move up and down with (see).

As shown in FIG. 2, the tray 22 is configured to serve as a lid that closes the corresponding upper surface opening 11 at its ascending position P1. At this time, the tray 22 at the ascending position P1 is substantially flush with the panel surface of the console panel portion 10. In this case, the upper surface of the tray 22 forms a part of the design surface of the console panel portion 10.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, when the tray 22 is in the descending position P2, the accommodation space 21a of the corresponding retainer 21 is configured to be opened through the upper surface opening 11. At this time, the beverage container introduced from the upper surface opening 11 can be accommodated in the accommodating space 21a of the retainer 21 in a state of being supported from below by the tray 22.

In the following description, of the two retainers 21, the retainer 21 on the front side of the vehicle is referred to as the retainer 21A, and the retainer 21 on the rear side of the vehicle is referred to as the retainer 21B.

As shown in FIG. 3, the retainer 21A has an opposing wall 21b facing the unlocking member 35 (see FIG. 4). The facing wall 21b is configured as a partition wall that partitions the accommodation space 21a and is interposed with the unlocking member 35.

The facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A is provided with an access opening 24 that allows the unlocking member 35 to be accessed from the upper surface opening 11 through the accommodation space 21a. The access opening 24 is configured as a substantially rectangular through hole that penetrates the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A. As the shape of the access opening 24, various shapes such as a circle, an ellipse, and a polygon can be adopted in addition to the substantially rectangular shape.

Further, the cup holder portion 20 includes a cover 28 capable of opening and closing the access opening 24 provided on the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A. Although the details will be described later, the cover 28 is configured to be removable from the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A. The cover 28 covers the access opening 24 while being attached to the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A, and is removed from the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A when the access opening 24 is used.

In the retainer 21A, the ascending position P1 of the tray 22 is located higher than the access opening 24 provided in the facing wall 21b. Therefore, when the tray 22 is in the raised position P1, the access opening 24 or the cover 28 to which the access opening 24 is attached cannot be visually recognized from the outside because it is shielded by the tray 22 (see FIG. 2).

On the other hand, the lowering position P2 of the tray 22 is located lower than the access opening 24 provided in the facing wall 21b. Therefore, when the tray 22 is in the lowering position P2, the access opening 24 or the cover 28 to which the access opening 24 is attached is not shielded by the tray 22 and is visible from the outside (see FIG. 3).

In the cup holder portion 20, the retainer 21A differs from the retainer 21B only in that it has an access opening 24. Therefore, when molding the two retainers 21A and 21B with a mold, it is preferable to use nesting corresponding to the shape of the access opening 24. As a result, it becomes possible to use a common mold for the two retainers 21A and 21B, and the mold cost of the mold can be kept low.

As shown in FIG. 4, a detent pin 31a is provided on the lever shaft 31 of the shift lever 30. A shift lock device 32 for an automatic transmission is arranged in the vicinity of the detent pin 31a. The shift lock device 32 is for preventing the shift lever 30 from being shifted to another position when the shift lever 30 is set to the parking position.

The shift lock device 32 includes a solenoid 33 as an actuator that operates when energized by power supply, a cam member 34 for locking driven by the solenoid 33 and urged in the locking direction by the spring member 34a, and a detent pin 31a. It includes a plate member (not shown) that can be locked at each shift position of the shift lever 30 and is fixed to the vehicle body.

The cam member 34 is connected to a lock release member 35 for releasing the shift lock of the shift lever 30 by the shift lock device 32 when the engine is stopped, and is configured to operate in conjunction with the unlock member 35. There is.

When the solenoid 33 is energized, the cam member 34 is set to the unlocked position against the elastic urging force of the spring member 34a. As a result, the cam member 34 allows the detent pin 31a to separate from the plate member when the shift lever 30 is in the parking position. Therefore, the shift lever 30 can be shifted to another shift position without being locked at the parking position.

On the other hand, when the energization of the solenoid 33 is stopped, the cam member 34 is set to the locked position according to the elastic urging force of the spring member 34a. As a result, the cam member 34 prevents the detent pin 31a from coming off the plate member when the shift lever 30 is in the parking position. Therefore, the shift lever 30 is locked at the parking position to prevent the shift operation to another shift position.

Therefore, when it is desired to shift the shift lever 30 from the parking position to another position when the solenoid 33 is stopped energized, the lock is released by using an unlocking tool or manually so that the cam member 34 moves to the unlocked position. The member 35 may be operated directly.

For a more detailed structure of the shift lock device 32, for example, the manual release mechanism of the shift lock device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-159254 is referred to.

As shown in FIG. 4, the tray elevating mechanism 29 of the retainer 21A includes an urging device 29a that applies an elastic urging force toward the ascending position P1 to the tray 22 and a locking device that locks the tray 22 at the descending position P2. 29b and. The tray elevating mechanism 29 is also provided in the retainer 21B.

The urging device 29a is configured by using a spring member that elastically urges the tray 22 upward at all times. The lock device 29b includes a lock member (not shown) that engages with the tray 22 at the lowering position P2, and an operation unit (not shown) that is manually operated to release the lock by the lock member.

Therefore, when the tray 22 at the ascending position P1 is pushed down to the descending position P2 against the elastic urging force of the urging device 29a by an external load or by the weight of the beverage container, the tray 22 is locked. It is locked at the descending position P2 by 29b. On the other hand, the tray 22 locked at the lowering position P2 is unlocked by a manual operation of the operation unit. As a result, the tray 22 rises to the ascending position P1 according to the elastic urging force of the urging device 29a.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the retainer 21A extends from the facing wall 21b toward the unlocking member 35 in order to guide the tool inserted in the access opening 24 to the unlocking member 35. Has.

The guide wall 25 is composed of an upper wall portion 26 and a lower wall portion 27. The upper wall portion 26 is a flat plate-shaped wall portion that extends from the rear end portion to the front end portion to the right side of the vehicle Y with the opening edge on the upper side of the access opening 24 as the rear end portion. The lower wall portion 27 is a flat plate-shaped wall portion that extends from the rear end portion to the front end portion to the right side of the vehicle Y with the opening edge on the lower side of the access opening 24 as the rear end portion. The upper wall portion 26 and the lower wall portion 27 extend in parallel with each other in a state of being separated from each other in the vertical direction. As a result, the upward movement of the tool inserted in the access opening 24 is restricted by the upper wall portion 26, and the downward movement of the tool is restricted by the lower wall portion 27.

As shown in FIG. 6, the cover 28 is made of an elastically deformable resin material, and has a main body portion 28a that covers the access opening 24 of the retainer 21A and a pair of locking claws 28b that extend from the main body portion 28a. , 28b and.

The cover 28 is attached to the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A by being locked to the opening edge of the access opening 24 while elastically deforming when the pair of locking claws 28b, 28b are inserted into the access opening 24. .. On the other hand, the cover 28 is removed from the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A by applying an external load to the main body 28a so that the pair of locking claws 28b, 28b are disengaged from the opening edge of the access opening 24.

The cover 28 is removable, but instead of this, a rotary cover that rotates via a hinge portion or a slide type cover can be adopted.

Here, with reference to FIGS. 7 to 9, a state in which the unlocking member 35 is operated by using the unlocking tool T when the solenoid 33 of the shift lock device 32 is stopped energized will be described.

As shown in FIG. 7, first, when the tray 22 of the retainer 21A is in the ascending position P1, the tray 22 is pushed down to the descending position P2 to lock it. This step is omitted when the tray 22 of the retainer 21A is already in the lowering position P2.

Next, the access opening 24 is opened by grasping the cover 28 and removing it from the facing wall 21b of the retainer 21A. As a result, a state is formed in which the access opening 24 can be accessed from the outside through the accommodation space 21a of the retainer 21A from the upper surface opening 11 of the console panel portion 10.

As shown in FIG. 8, the operator inserts the tip Ta of the tool T from the upper surface opening 11 of the console panel portion 10 into the access opening 24 through the accommodation space 21a of the retainer 21A. After that, the operator operates the tip Ta of the tool T in the direction in which the unlocking member 35 operates (in the present embodiment, the direction in which the unlocking member 35 is pushed down). When the unlocking member 35 moves downward by a predetermined amount to reach the operating position, the operator can shift the shift lever 30 from the parking position to another position.

Here, the console structure 1 includes a regulation unit 14 formed as a part of the console panel unit 10 above the shift lock device 32 and between the retainer 21A and the shift lever 30. The regulating unit 14 has a function of restricting the tool T inserted into the access opening 24 of the retainer 21A from interfering with the opening edge 24a of the access opening 24. In order to realize this function, the regulating portion 14 has a protruding portion 14a protruding toward the access opening 24.

The shaft portion of the tool T first comes into contact with the protruding portion 14a of the regulating portion 14. Then, the contact between the shaft portion of the tool T and the protruding portion 14a of the regulating portion 14 is maintained until the unlocking member 35 moves downward by a predetermined amount and reaches the operating position. Therefore, when operating the unlocking member 35, it is possible to secure a gap between the shaft portion of the tool T and the opening edge 24a of the access opening 24. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the opening edge 24a of the access opening 24 from interfering with the shaft portion of the tool T and being damaged.

Further, in addition to the opening edge 24a of the access opening 24, the regulating portion 14 has the opening edge 11a of the upper surface opening 11 of the console panel portion 10 when the protruding portion 14a first abuts on the shaft portion of the tool T. Also, it is possible to prevent the opening edge 11a from being damaged by the tool T.

At this time, the operator pushes down the unlocking member 35 with the tip Ta of the tool T by using the protruding portion 14a of the regulating portion 14 as a fulcrum and the upper surface of the unlocking member 35 as an action point, so-called "lever principle". It is preferable to carry out with. As a result, the operator can easily perform the operation of pushing down the unlocking member 35.

Instead of the above-mentioned configuration in which the regulation portion 14 is configured as a part of the console panel portion 10, a configuration in which a part of the cup holder portion 20 is used (for example, the guide wall 25 is extended to form the regulation portion 14). Form) can also be adopted.

When the unlocking member 35 is operated without using the tool T, the operator's finger can be inserted into the access opening 24 from the upper surface opening 11 of the console panel portion 10 through the accommodation space 21a of the retainer 21A.
