Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、例えば、外径や幅が異なる飲み物用容器等の収容物を保持する収容具に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来、この種の収容具として、車両室内において使用される飲み物用容器ホルダが知られており、飲み物用容器の転倒を抑制するようにその飲み物用容器を保持する。飲み物用容器は、その種類によって様々な外径を有することが多く、それらに対応できることが飲み物用容器ホルダに求められる。
【０００３】
そのため、種々の外径に対応できる収容具として、図１４に示すように、保持部材として中心側保持部材９１及び外周側保持部材９２の２つの保持部材を備える飲み物用容器ホルダ９０が提案されている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。
【０００４】
この飲み物用容器ホルダ９０では、中心側保持部材９１は、例えば直径が５２ｍｍ程度の容器（一例として、２５０ｍｌ缶）が挿入孔９３に挿入された場合にその先端部９１ａが当接するように構成されている。一方、外周側保持部材９２は、例えば直径が６０ｍｍ程度の容器（一例として、３５０ｍｌ缶）が挿入された場合にその先端部９２ａが当接するように構成されている。中心側保持部材９１及び外周側保持部材９２は、回動軸９４を軸にして基準位置から容器の挿入方向に回動可能に構成されている。
【０００５】
そして、図１４に示すように、直径が５２ｍｍ程度の容器１００が挿入孔９３に挿入された場合、基準位置にある中心側保持部材９１の先端部９１ａと周壁部９５の内周面９６とにより容器１００が保持される。また、具体的には図示しないが、例えば直径が６０ｍｍ程度の容器が挿入孔９３に挿入された場合、中心側保持部材９１は、その飲み物用容器の挿入に伴い、その挿入方向に回動して容器の下側に当接して支持するとともに、外周側保持部材９２の先端部９２ａが基準位置において容器に当接して保持する。このため、外周側保持部材９２と周壁部９５の内周面９６とにより容器が保持される。
【０００６】
また、これよりも大きい外径を有する容器が挿入孔９３に挿入された場合には、中心側保持部材９１と外周側保持部材９２とがともに、その容器の挿入に伴って挿入方向に回動される。そして、その容器は、周壁部９５の内周面９６によって保持される。

【０００８】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところが、図１５に示すように、中心側保持部材９１が対応する容器の外径（幅）と、外周側保持部材９２が対応する容器の外径との間の外径を有する容器１０１が挿入された場合、中心側保持部材９１はその容器の挿入に伴ってその挿入方向に回動して、容器の下側で容器の外面に当接して支持する。そして、周壁部９５の内周面９６と外周側保持部材９２とで容器１０１を保持することになるが、外周側保持部材９２の先端部９２ａがその容器１０１に当接しないことが生じ得る。このような場合には、容器１０１と、外周側保持部材９２または周壁部９５の内周面９６との間に隙間が形成されることがある。ここで、背が高く、中に多量の飲み物が入っているような容器１０１が挿入されている場合には、重心位置が高い位置にあるため容器１０１が不安定な状態で保持されることがある。
【０００９】
本発明は、上記問題点に着目してなされたものであり、その目的は、収容物の外径または幅の大小に関わらず、収容物をより安定に保持することができる収容具を提供することにある。
【００１０】
【課題を解決するための手段及び発明の効果】
上記課題を解決するために、請求項１に記載の発明は、収容物を挿入するための挿入孔が単数または複数形成されたフレーム部と、前記挿入孔に挿入された収容物を受ける受け部と、前記挿入孔の内周面からの突出量が異なるように配設されているとともに、前記挿入孔に挿入された前記収容物の外面に当接してその収容物を保持する複数の保持部材とを備え、前記複数の保持部材が前記フレーム部に対して所定の基準位置に付勢された状態から前記収容物の挿入方向に回動可能に軸支されている収容具において、前記複数の保持部材のうち前記挿入孔の中心寄りに突出する少なくとも１つ以上の保持部材が回動した場合に、その回動した保持部材とは異なる保持部材のうち少なくとも前記挿入孔の中心寄りに突出する保持部材を前記挿入孔の中心に向かって変位させる変位機構を備えていることを要旨とする。
【００１１】
この発明によれば、ある２つの保持部材の間にその外面が位置するような外径を備える収容物が挿入孔に挿入された場合であっても、回動することなく基準位置にある保持部材のうち少なくとも挿入孔の中心寄りにある保持部材がその収容物に向かって変位する。このため、収容物と保持部材との隙間が縮まった状態でその収容物を保持することが可能となり、さらには、その変位した保持部材が収容物の外面に当接した状態で保持することもできる。従って、収容物をその外径や幅の大小に関わらず、より安定に保持することができる。
【００１２】
請求項２に記載の発明は、請求項１に記載の発明において、前記変位機構は、前記保持部材の回動にリンクして前記回動した保持部材とは異なる保持部材を前記挿入孔の中心に向かって変位させることを要旨とする。
【００１３】
この発明によれば、請求項１に記載の発明の効果に加えて、保持部材の回動にリンクしてその回動した保持部材とは異なる保持部材が変位する。そして、回動した保持部材が基準位置に戻る際にも、その回動にリンクしているため、回動した保持部材が基準位置に戻るとともに、変位した保持部材も変位する前の状態に戻る。従って、その変位した保持部材によって収容物が安定に保持される。
【００１４】
請求項３に記載の発明は、請求項１に記載の発明において、前記変位機構は、前記保持部材を前記挿入孔の中心に向かって付勢する付勢部材を備えており、前記保持部材のうち前記中心寄りに位置する少なくとも１つ以上の保持部材が回動することで、その回動した保持部材により規制されていた前記付勢部材の付勢力が解除され、その付勢力により回動していない他の保持部材が前記中心に向かって変位することを要旨とする。
【００１５】
この発明によれば、請求項１に記載の発明の効果に加えて、保持部材は付勢部材により挿入孔の中心に向かって付勢されている。このため、その付勢されている保持部材よりも挿入孔の中心側に位置する保持部材が回動することで、その保持部材により規制されていた保持部材が挿入孔の中心に向かって変位することが可能である。従って、保持部材を挿入孔の中心に向かって付勢する付勢部材を設けるという簡易的な構成により、保持部材の変位が可能となる。
【００１６】
請求項４に記載の発明は、請求項１〜請求項３のいずれか１項に記載の発明において、前記挿入孔の中心に最も近い保持部材よりも突出量が少ない他の保持部材の先端部は、回動方向側に向かうにつれて前記挿入孔の中心から遠ざかる傾斜面で構成されていることを要旨とする。
【００１７】
この発明によれば、請求項１〜請求項３のいずれか一項に記載の発明の効果に加えて、保持部材の先端部が傾斜面で構成されている。このため、収容物が挿入孔から取り出されることで、回動した状態の保持部材が基準位置に戻る際、その保持部材よりも突出量が少ない保持部材の先端部の傾斜面に案内されて問題なく基準位置に戻ることができる。
【００１８】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の収容具を飲み物用容器ホルダに適用した一実施形態について、図１〜図１１を参照して説明する。
【００１９】
図１に示すように収容具としての飲み物用容器ホルダ１０は、フレーム部２０と、受け部３０と、これらフレーム部２０と受け部３０とを収容する収容部４０とを備えている。
【００２０】
フレーム部２０は、方形状の平面部２１と、平面部２１の周縁から下方に向かって突出する側壁部２２とを有している。平面部２１には、直径Ｄ（図３参照）の円形状からなる挿入孔２３が２個形成されており、各挿入孔２３の周縁の一部には、平面部２１から下方に向かって突出する周壁部２４が形成されている。
【００２１】
受け部３０は、フレーム部２０の平面部２１よりもやや小さな方形状に形成されており、フレーム部２０の各挿入孔２３と対応する位置に凹部３１を有している。凹部３１の底面が、挿入孔２３に挿入された飲み物用容器の載置面３２となる。また、受け部３０は、複数（この例では４本）のアーム３３を介してフレーム部２０に対して相対変位可能に支持されている。
【００２２】
収容部４０は、開口４１を有する箱形状をなしている。この収容部４０内には、フレーム部２０及び前記受け部３０が重合された状態で収容可能となっている。収容部４０に収容された状態のフレーム部２０を矢印Ａの方向（図１参照）に変位させると、図２（ａ）に示すように、フレーム部２０の平面部２１が収容部４０の開口４１を介して表出する。この際、受け部３０がフレーム部２０とともに引き出され、フレーム部２０から所定距離だけ下方に離間するように変位される。このようにして、飲み物用容器ホルダ１０が飲み物用容器を保持可能な使用状態となる。一方、使用状態にあるフレーム部２０を前記矢印Ａとは逆方向に変位させると、フレーム部２０が収容部４０内に挿入されていくに従ってアーム３３の作用により受け部３０がフレーム部２０に接近し、図２（ｂ）に示すように、フレーム部２０と受け部３０とが重合されて収容部４０内に収容される。
【００２３】
フレーム部２０の下面には、挿入孔２３に挿入された飲み物用容器の外面に当接してその容器を保持する保持部材５０が各挿入孔２３に配設されている。
図３に示すように、保持部材５０は、中心側保持部材５１及び外周側保持部材５２で構成されている。各保持部材５１，５２は、先端部５１ａ，５２ａが挿入孔２３及び周壁部２４の内周面２５から挿入孔２３の中心側（内側）に向かって突出するように配置されており、先端部５２ａは先端部５１ａに比べて突出量が少ない。各保持部材５１，５２は、フレーム部２０に対して、それらの基端部が各挿入孔２３につき回動軸としての１つのシャフト５３を中心として飲み物用容器の挿入方向（図３で矢印Ｂにて示す方向）に回動可能に軸支されている。
【００２４】
図３及び図４に示すように、中心側保持部材５１は、先端部５１ａから基端部５１ｂにかけて腕部５４を備え、その腕部５４の基端部５１ｂ側には回動軸としてのシャフト５３が挿通される挿通孔５１ｃが形成されている。また、先端部５１ａは、挿入される飲み物用容器に合わせて挿入孔２３よりも直径の小さな円弧の一部を描くように湾曲されており、比較的外径の小さい飲み物用容器（例えば、２５０ｍｌ缶（直径５２ｍｍ程度の容器））に対応するように構成されている。中心側保持部材５１は、外周側保持部材５２が収容される開口部５５を備えている。
【００２５】
外周側保持部材５２は、中心側保持部材５１の開口部５５に収容可能な大きさに形成されている。外周側保持部材５２は、その基端部５２ｂにおいてシャフト５３が挿通される挿通孔５２ｃが形成されている。この挿通孔５２ｃは、長孔に加工されており、外周側保持部材５２はシャフト５３に対して長孔の長さの範囲内で相対変位可能に構成されている。外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａは、挿入孔２３とほぼ同心円状の円弧を描くように湾曲されており、比較的外径の大きな飲み物用容器（例えば、３５０ｍｌ缶（直径６０ｍｍ程度の容器））に対応する。また、外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａは、回動方向側に向かうにつれて挿入孔２３の中心から遠ざかる傾斜面で構成されている。
【００２６】
各保持部材５１，５２は、挿通孔５１ｃ，５２ｃに挿通されるシャフト５３と、開口部５５の幅の長さで形成されたねじりコイルばね５６とにより保持部材５０として一体化される。ねじりコイルばね５６は、その一端に中心側保持部材５１の腕部５４に係止される係止部５６ａ（図７も参照）を備え、他端に平面部２１の下面に向かって延びる支持部５６ｂとを備える。このため、中心側保持部材５１が回動する際、支持部５６ｂが平面部２１の下面に形成された突部２６で規制されるとともに、ねじりコイルばね５６がその回動に伴いその回動方向側に巻かれる。このため、中心側保持部材５１には、ねじりコイルばね５６の弾性力（復元力）により基準位置に戻るための付勢力が働くことになる。
【００２７】
外周側保持部材５２は、その下面における基端部５２ｂ寄りにリブ５７を備える。リブ５７は、ねじりコイルばね５６の中間部に形成された変位部５６ｃが係合可能に構成されている。中心側保持部材５１が回動する際、その回動に伴いねじりコイルばね５６がその回動方向に巻かれるため、変位部５６ｃも図５（ａ）に示す状態から図５（ｂ）に示すように内側に向かって巻かれ、これに伴い外周側保持部材５２が内側に変位してさらに突出することになる。この際、同じく図５（ａ）に示すように、長孔で形成された挿通孔５２ｃの内側に当接していたシャフト５３は、その変位に伴ない図５（ｂ）に示すように、挿通孔５２ｃの外周側に当接することになる。なお、変位機構は、挿通孔５２ｃ、シャフト５３、ねじりコイルばね５６及びリブ５７により構成される。
【００２８】
図７に示すように、シャフト５３及びねじりコイルばね５６により一体化された各保持部材５１，５２は、そのシャフト５３が平面部２１の下面から下方に突出する取付部２７の取付孔２８に取り付けられることで、フレーム部２０に取着される。外周側保持部材５２は、中心側保持部材５１の開口部５５に収容されている。各保持部材５１，５２は、受け部３０とほぼ平行な状態をなす基準位置（図３の実線にて示す位置）と、受け部３０とほぼ直角な状態をなす折曲位置（図３の二点鎖線にて示す位置）との間で回動可能である。なお、図３では、外周側保持部材５２が内側に変位した状態で回動した様子を二点鎖線で示すが、変位していない状態であっても外周側保持部材５２は回動可能である。
【００２９】
各保持部材５１，５２は、シャフト５３に巻回されているねじりコイルばね５６の係止部５６ａ及び支持部５６ｂの上記作用により前記折曲位置から基準位置に向かって回動する方向に付勢されている。中心側保持部材５１は、その腕部５４がフレーム部２０の平面部２１における挿入孔２３の周縁に当接することで、折曲位置から基準位置に向かう方向に基準位置を超えて回動することが規制されている。また、外周側保持部材５２も同様に、その先端部５２ａの一部がフレーム部２０の挿入孔２３の周縁に当接することで、折曲位置から基準位置に向かう方向に基準位置を超えて回動することが規制されている。
【００３０】
次に本実施形態の作用について説明する。
図８に示すように、使用状態にある飲み物用容器ホルダ１０に対して、フレーム部２０の挿入孔２３に収容物として例えば２５０ｍｌ缶の飲み物用容器（以下、容器という）７０が挿入されると、各保持部材５１，５２はともに基準位置のままであり、中心側保持部材５１が容器７０の外面に当接する。このため、フレーム部２０の挿入孔２３に挿入された容器７０は、周壁部２４の内周面２５と、基準位置にある中心側保持部材５１の先端部５１ａとにより保持される。
【００３１】
また、図９に示すように、フレーム部２０の挿入孔２３に収容物として、例えば３５０ｍｌ缶の容器７１が挿入されると、中心側保持部材５１が基準位置から折曲位置に向かって所定角度だけ回動してその先端部５１ａが容器７１の外面に当接する。一方、外周側保持部材５２は、基準位置のままで折曲位置に向かって回動することはなく、容器７１の外面に当接する。このため、フレーム部２０の挿入孔２３に挿入された容器７１は、主として周壁部２４の内周面２５と、基準位置にある外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａとにより保持され、その下側において中心側保持部材５１の先端部５１ａにより保持される。
【００３２】
ところで、両保持部材５１，５２が対応する両外径の間にある外径を有する容器７２（例えば、直径が５６ｍｍ程度の容器）が挿入孔２３に挿入されると、中心側保持部材５１は、容器７１の場合のように折曲位置に向かって所定角度だけ回動して先端部５１ａが容器７２に当接する。ここで、従来技術の場合、容器７２に対応していない外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａと周壁部２４の内周面２５とで保持されることになり、容器７２は両者の間で隙間が形成された状態で保持されることになる。また、中心側保持部材５１の先端部５１ａも保持しているが、容器７２の下側で保持しているため保持が弱い。この点、本実施の形態では、図１０に示すように、中心側保持部材５１が回動するに伴い、ねじりコイルばね５６の変位部５６ｃが外周側保持部材５２を内側に向かって変位させる。そして、先端部５２ａは容器７２との隙間を縮めるように突出して容器７２の外面に当接する。このため、容器７２は周壁部２４の内周面２５と外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａとにより保持される。
【００３３】
また、図１１に示すように、中心側保持部材５１及び外周側保持部材５２が対応していない外径であって、挿入孔２３の直径Ｄ以内の容器７３が挿入されると、両保持部材５１，５２は、それぞれ基準位置から折曲位置に向かって所定角度だけ回動する。そして、フレーム部２０の挿入孔２３に挿入された容器７３は、周壁部２４により保持されるとともに、それぞれ所定角度だけ回動した両保持部材５１，５２の先端部５１ａ，５２ａにより下側で保持された状態となる。
【００３４】
また、中心側保持部材５１が回動している状態で、飲み物用容器が挿入孔２３から取り出されると、ねじりコイルばね５６の付勢により中心側保持部材５１は基準位置に向かって回動し、その回動にリンクして外周側保持部材５２は変位する前の状態に戻る。この際、図６に示すように、中心側保持部材５１は、傾斜した外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａにより案内されて問題なく元の基準位置に戻ることができる。
【００３５】
従って、本実施形態によれば以下に示すような効果を得ることができる。
（１）外周側保持部材５２が内側に向かって変位するため、基準位置にある中心側保持部材５１及び外周側保持部材５２の間の外径を有する容器７２のような飲み物用容器が挿入されても、外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａが当接した状態となる。このため、飲み物用容器を安定した状態で保持することができる。
【００３６】
（２）中心側保持部材５１を基準位置に付勢するねじりコイルばね５６に変位部５６ｃを形成し、その変位部５６ｃを外周側保持部材５２のリブ５７に係合させた。これにより、中心側保持部材５１が回動すると、その回動にリンクして外周側保持部材５２が中心側に向かって変位するため、安定した状態で容器が保持される。また、中心側保持部材５１が基準位置に戻る際にも、その回動にリンクしているため、変位した外周側保持部材５２も変位する前の状態に戻る。従って、１つのねじりコイルばね５６で外周側保持部材５２の変位と、中心側保持部材５１の回動との２つの動作が可能であり、外周側保持部材５２を変位させるために特別に他の部材を設ける必要がない。
【００３７】
（３）外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａが傾斜面で構成されている。このため、中心側保持部材５１がねじりコイルばね５６の付勢により基準位置に戻る際、外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａの傾斜面により案内されながら問題なく基準位置に戻ることができる。
【００３８】
（変形例）
なお、本実施の形態は以下のように変形してもよい。
○ 変位機構は、上記実施形態のねじりコイルばね５６のように中心側保持部材５１の回動にリンクさせて外周側保持部材５２を内側に向かって変位させる構成に限らない。例えば、図１２（ａ）に示すように、開口部５５の幅内で形成され、両端に支持部８１を備えるとともに、中間部に変位部８２を備える屈曲させた付勢部材としてのばね線材８０をリブ５７に係合させる構成とする。なお、リブ５７の形状は、上記実施形態のように係合させる構成でなく、図１２（ｂ）に示すように単なる凹状のリブ５７であってもよい。そして、外周側保持部材５２が基準位置にある状態で内側に向かって付勢するようにばね線材８０をフレーム部２０に組み付ける。なお、具体的に図示しないが、中心側保持部材５１は、例えば、挿通孔５１ｃの代わりに回動軸となる突起を備えており、その突起が前記取付孔２８に挿通された状態で、ねじりコイルばね等により基準位置に付勢されている。この構成により、中心側保持部材５１が基準位置にある状態では、開口部５５内にて外周側保持部材５２は内側に変位することが規制される。そして、中心側保持部材５１が回動することで、その中心側保持部材５１による規制が解除されて同図に一点鎖線で示すように変位部８２が変位して外周側保持部材５２が内側に向かって変位する。なお、外周側保持部材５２は、回動の際に支持部８１が平面部２１の突部２６において規制されることで基準位置に付勢される。他に、例えば図１３（ａ）に示すように、外周側保持部材５２の基端部５２ｂがフレーム部２０の突部２６に取着された付勢部材としてのコイルばね８３により内側に向かって付勢されている構成であってもよい。そして、中心側保持部材５１が回動することで、図１３（ｂ）に示すように、中心側保持部材５１により規制されていた外周側保持部材５２が内側にばねの弾性力により付勢される。
【００３９】
上記のような構成の場合、前記実施の形態と同じく外周側保持部材５２の先端部５２ａを傾斜面で構成することで、中心側保持部材５１は問題なく基準位置に戻ることができる。なお、図１３に示すコイルばね８３は、上記実施形態に用いることもでき、その場合は、コイルばね８３の弾性力により外周側保持部材５２がスムーズに内側に向かって突出されることになる。また、コイルばね８３ではなく、板ばね等の他の弾性部材を用いることもできる。
【００４０】
○ シャフト５３自体がばね材で構成されてもよい。例えば、上記実施形態のシャフト５３自体をねじりコイルばね５６により構成し、そのねじりコイルばね５６に上記実施形態と同じく係止部５６ａ及び支持部５６ｂを設ける。この構成によっても、上記実施形態と同様に中心側保持部材５１の回動にリンクさせて外周側保持部材５２を変位させることができる。
【００４１】
○ 上記実施形態において、ねじりコイルばね５６に代えて、板ばね等の他のばね部材を用いてもよい。外周側保持部材５２を内側に向かって変位可能であれば、特にばね部材については限定されない。
【００４２】
○ 上記実施形態において、中心側保持部材５１の回動の量に合わせて外周側保持部材５２が変位するようにリンクさせてもよい。この構成にすることで、中心側保持部材５１が基準位置に戻る際、外周側保持部材５２はその回動にリンクに合わせて元の状態に戻るため、中心側保持部材５１は外周側保持部材５２に接触することなく基準位置に戻ることができる。
【００４３】
○ 保持部材５０は、中心側保持部材５１及び外周側保持部材５２の２つからなる構成に限らず、３つ以上備える構成であってもよい。例えば、３つからなる保持部材の場合、外周側の２つの保持部材が変位可能に構成され、中心側の保持部材が回動すると、その外周側にある保持部材が変位する構成とする。
【００４４】
○ 先端部５２ａが傾斜面で構成されていない外周側保持部材５２であってもよい。
○ 上記実施形態において、回動の軸となるシャフト５３を設けず、中心側保持部材５１の挿通孔５１ｃの代わりに外周側保持部材５２の挿通孔５２ｃに挿入される突起を設け、同突起を回動の軸としてもよい。この場合、ねじりコイルばね５６は、その両端部に突起が嵌挿されるとともに、上記実施形態と同様に変位部５６ｃが外周側保持部材５２のリブ５７に取り付けられた構成とする。この構成によっても、上記実施形態と同様の効果を得ることができる。
【００４５】
○ フレーム部２０は２つの挿入孔２３を備える構成としたが、この挿入孔２３に設けられる挿入孔２３の数は２つには限定されない。同挿入孔２３をフレーム部２０に対して１つまたは３つ以上設ける構成としてもよい。
【００４６】
○ 上記実施形態では、受け部３０を有する飲み物用容器ホルダの例を示したが、本発明は、この受け部３０を有しない飲み物用容器ホルダにも同様に適用することができる。このようにした場合、受け部３０の載置面３２の替わりとして、例えば、フレーム部２０の下方に配置される意匠体の表面等が用いられる。
【００４７】
○ 上記実施形態では、フレーム部２０を収容部４０に対して変位させることで使用状態と収容状態とが切替可能な飲み物用容器ホルダの例を示した。しかし、本発明は、例えば意匠体等に対して変位不能に固定されたフレーム部２０のみを備える飲み物用容器ホルダにも同様に適用することができる。
【００４８】
○ 前記実施形態では、飲み物用容器ホルダの例を示したが、本発明は、飲み物用容器ホルダ以外の収容具、例えば携帯電話ホルダ、光ディスク、光磁気ディスク、カセットテープ用ケース等にも同様に適用することができる。
【００４９】
以下、上記実施の形態及び変形例から把握できる技術的思想について以下に記載する。
（１）前記変位機構は、前記保持部材を前記基準位置に付勢し、該保持部材の回動に伴い同じく回動するばね部材に形成された変位部と、前記保持部材に形成され、前記変位部を取付可能な取付部と、同じく前記保持部材に形成され、前記保持部材の回動の際の軸となる回動軸を挿通可能な長孔で形成された挿通孔とを備え、
前記保持部材の回動により前記ばね部材の変位部が回動し、その回動により前記取付部を介して前記保持部材が前記挿通孔に挿通された回動軸に対して相対的に前記挿入孔の中心に向かって変位することを特徴とする請求項１〜請求項４のいずれか一項に記載の収容具。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a container for holding a container such as a drink container having a different outer diameter or width.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a drink container holder used in a vehicle compartment is known as a container of this type, and the drink container is held so as to prevent the drink container from overturning. Drink containers often have various outer diameters depending on their types, and drink container holders are required to be able to cope with them.
[0003]
Therefore, as a container that can accommodate various outer diameters, as shown in FIG. 14, a drink container holder 90 that includes two holding members, a central holding member 91 and an outer peripheral holding member 92, as holding members has been proposed. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).
[0004]
In the beverage container holder 90, the center side holding member 91 is configured such that, for example, when a container (for example, a 250 ml can) having a diameter of about 52 mm is inserted into the insertion hole 93, the tip end portion 91a abuts. ing. On the other hand, the outer peripheral side holding member 92 is configured such that, for example, when a container (for example, a 350 ml can) having a diameter of about 60 mm is inserted, the tip end portion 92a abuts. The center side holding member 91 and the outer peripheral side holding member 92 are configured to be rotatable in the container insertion direction from the reference position around the rotation shaft 94.
[0005]
As shown in FIG. 14, when the container 100 having a diameter of about 52 mm is inserted into the insertion hole 93, the distal end portion 91 a of the center side holding member 91 and the inner peripheral surface 96 of the peripheral wall portion 95 at the reference position are used. The container 100 is held. Although not specifically illustrated, for example, when a container having a diameter of about 60 mm is inserted into the insertion hole 93, the center side holding member 91 rotates in the insertion direction as the drink container is inserted. The front end 92a of the outer peripheral holding member 92 contacts and holds the container at the reference position. For this reason, the container is held by the outer peripheral holding member 92 and the inner peripheral surface 96 of the peripheral wall portion 95.
[0006]
Further, when a container having an outer diameter larger than this is inserted into the insertion hole 93, both the center side holding member 91 and the outer peripheral side holding member 92 rotate in the insertion direction as the container is inserted. Is done. The container is held by the inner peripheral surface 96 of the peripheral wall portion 95.
[0007]
[Patent Document 1]
JP 2003-063296 A (paragraphs [0038], [0039], [0054] to [0057] in FIG. 3, FIG. 3)
[0008]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, as shown in FIG. 15, the container 101 having an outer diameter between the outer diameter (width) of the container to which the center side holding member 91 corresponds and the outer diameter of the container to which the outer side holding member 92 corresponds is inserted. In this case, the center side holding member 91 rotates in the insertion direction as the container is inserted, and abuts and supports the outer surface of the container on the lower side of the container. The container 101 is held by the inner peripheral surface 96 of the peripheral wall portion 95 and the outer peripheral side holding member 92, but the tip end portion 92 a of the outer peripheral side holding member 92 may not come into contact with the container 101. In such a case, a gap may be formed between the container 101 and the outer peripheral holding member 92 or the inner peripheral surface 96 of the peripheral wall portion 95. Here, when the container 101 that is tall and contains a large amount of drink is inserted, the container 101 may be held in an unstable state because the center of gravity is high. is there.
[0009]
The present invention has been made paying attention to the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a storage device that can hold the storage more stably regardless of the outer diameter or width of the storage. There is.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention according to claim 1 is a frame portion in which one or a plurality of insertion holes for inserting a stored item are formed, and a receiving unit that receives the stored item inserted into the insertion hole. And a plurality of holding members that are arranged so that the amount of protrusion from the inner peripheral surface of the insertion hole is different and that abuts on the outer surface of the stored item inserted into the insertion hole and holds the stored item And a plurality of the holding members pivotally supported in the insertion direction of the container from a state in which the plurality of holding members are urged to a predetermined reference position with respect to the frame portion. When at least one holding member protruding toward the center of the insertion hole of the holding member rotates, at least one of the holding members different from the rotated holding member protrudes toward the center of the insertion hole. The holding member is inserted into the insertion hole. It is summarized as that provided with a displacement mechanism for displacing toward the center.
[0011]
According to the present invention, even when an object having an outer diameter such that the outer surface is positioned between two holding members is inserted into the insertion hole, the holding member is in the reference position without rotating. Of the members, at least the holding member near the center of the insertion hole is displaced toward the accommodation. For this reason, it becomes possible to hold the stored item in a state where the gap between the stored item and the holding member is reduced, and it is also possible to hold the displaced holding member in contact with the outer surface of the stored item. it can. Therefore, the contents can be held more stably regardless of the outer diameter or the width.
[0012]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, the displacement mechanism is configured such that the holding member different from the rotated holding member is linked to the rotation of the holding member and the center of the insertion hole is The gist is to displace toward.
[0013]
According to this invention, in addition to the effect of the first aspect of the invention, the holding member different from the rotated holding member is displaced by linking with the rotation of the holding member. When the rotated holding member returns to the reference position, since the rotation is linked to the rotation, the rotated holding member returns to the reference position, and the displaced holding member also returns to the state before being displaced. . Therefore, the contents are stably held by the displaced holding member.
[0014]
According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, the displacement mechanism includes a biasing member that biases the holding member toward the center of the insertion hole. Among them, when at least one holding member located near the center is rotated, the urging force of the urging member restricted by the rotated holding member is released, and the urging force is rotated. The gist is that other holding members that are not displaced are displaced toward the center.
[0015]
According to this invention, in addition to the effect of the invention described in claim 1, the holding member is urged toward the center of the insertion hole by the urging member. For this reason, the holding member that is positioned closer to the center of the insertion hole than the biased holding member rotates, so that the holding member that is regulated by the holding member is displaced toward the center of the insertion hole. It is possible. Therefore, the holding member can be displaced by a simple configuration in which a biasing member that biases the holding member toward the center of the insertion hole is provided.
[0016]
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the invention according to any one of the first to third aspects, the tip end portion of another holding member that has a smaller protruding amount than the holding member closest to the center of the insertion hole. Is made up of an inclined surface that moves away from the center of the insertion hole as it goes toward the rotational direction.
[0017]
According to this invention, in addition to the effects of the invention according to any one of claims 1 to 3, the distal end portion of the holding member is formed of an inclined surface. For this reason, when the holding member in the rotated state returns to the reference position by removing the contents from the insertion hole, it is guided to the inclined surface of the tip end portion of the holding member that has a smaller protruding amount than the holding member. And return to the reference position.
[0018]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the container of the present invention is applied to a drink container holder will be described with reference to FIGS.
[0019]
As shown in FIG. 1, a beverage container holder 10 as a container includes a frame part 20, a receiving part 30, and a containing part 40 that accommodates the frame part 20 and the receiving part 30.
[0020]
The frame portion 20 includes a rectangular flat surface portion 21 and side wall portions 22 that protrude downward from the periphery of the flat surface portion 21. Two circular insertion holes 23 having a diameter D (see FIG. 3) are formed in the flat portion 21, and a part of the periphery of each insertion hole 23 protrudes downward from the flat portion 21. A peripheral wall portion 24 is formed.
[0021]
The receiving part 30 is formed in a slightly smaller square shape than the flat part 21 of the frame part 20, and has a recessed part 31 at a position corresponding to each insertion hole 23 of the frame part 20. The bottom surface of the recess 31 serves as a placement surface 32 for the beverage container inserted into the insertion hole 23. The receiving portion 30 is supported by a plurality of (in this example, four) arms 33 so as to be relatively displaceable with respect to the frame portion 20.
[0022]
The accommodating portion 40 has a box shape having an opening 41. In this accommodating part 40, the frame part 20 and the receiving part 30 can be accommodated in a superposed state. When the frame part 20 accommodated in the accommodating part 40 is displaced in the direction of arrow A (see FIG. 1), the flat part 21 of the frame part 20 opens the opening of the accommodating part 40 as shown in FIG. Express through 41. At this time, the receiving part 30 is pulled out together with the frame part 20 and is displaced so as to be separated downward from the frame part 20 by a predetermined distance. In this way, the drink container holder 10 is in a usable state capable of holding a drink container. On the other hand, when the frame portion 20 in use is displaced in the direction opposite to the arrow A, the receiving portion 30 approaches the frame portion 20 due to the action of the arm 33 as the frame portion 20 is inserted into the accommodating portion 40. As shown in FIG. 2B, the frame portion 20 and the receiving portion 30 are overlapped and accommodated in the accommodating portion 40.
[0023]
On the lower surface of the frame portion 20, holding members 50 that are in contact with the outer surface of the beverage containers inserted into the insertion holes 23 and hold the containers are disposed in the respective insertion holes 23.
As shown in FIG. 3, the holding member 50 includes a center side holding member 51 and an outer peripheral side holding member 52. Each holding member 51, 52 is arranged such that the tip end portions 51 a, 52 a protrude from the inner peripheral surface 25 of the insertion hole 23 and the peripheral wall portion 24 toward the center side (inner side) of the insertion hole 23. The protrusion amount of 52a is smaller than that of the tip portion 51a. Each holding member 51, 52 has a base end portion of the frame portion 20 with respect to each insertion hole 23, and a drink container insertion direction (arrow B in FIG. In the direction indicated by).
[0024]
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the center side holding member 51 includes an arm portion 54 from the distal end portion 51 a to the proximal end portion 51 b, and a shaft as a rotation shaft is provided on the proximal end portion 51 b side of the arm portion 54. An insertion hole 51c through which 53 is inserted is formed. The tip 51a is curved so as to draw a part of an arc having a smaller diameter than the insertion hole 23 in accordance with the drink container to be inserted, and a drink container having a relatively small outer diameter (for example, 250 ml). It is configured to correspond to a can (a container having a diameter of about 52 mm). The center side holding member 51 includes an opening 55 in which the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is accommodated.
[0025]
The outer peripheral holding member 52 is formed in a size that can be accommodated in the opening 55 of the central holding member 51. The outer peripheral holding member 52 has an insertion hole 52c through which the shaft 53 is inserted at the base end portion 52b. The insertion hole 52 c is processed into a long hole, and the outer peripheral holding member 52 is configured to be relatively displaceable with respect to the shaft 53 within the length of the long hole. The distal end 52a of the outer peripheral holding member 52 is curved so as to draw a substantially concentric circular arc with the insertion hole 23, and a drink container having a relatively large outer diameter (for example, a 350 ml can (a container having a diameter of about 60 mm)) ). Moreover, the front-end | tip part 52a of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is comprised by the inclined surface which goes away from the center of the insertion hole 23 as it goes to the rotation direction side.
[0026]
Each holding member 51, 52 is integrated as a holding member 50 by a shaft 53 inserted through the insertion holes 51 c, 52 c and a torsion coil spring 56 formed with the length of the opening 55. The torsion coil spring 56 includes a locking portion 56a (see also FIG. 7) that is locked to the arm portion 54 of the center-side holding member 51 at one end, and a support portion that extends toward the lower surface of the flat surface portion 21 at the other end. 56b. For this reason, when the center-side holding member 51 rotates, the support portion 56b is restricted by the protrusion 26 formed on the lower surface of the flat surface portion 21, and the torsion coil spring 56 rotates in the rotation direction. Rolled to the side. For this reason, the urging force for returning to the reference position by the elastic force (restoring force) of the torsion coil spring 56 acts on the center side holding member 51.
[0027]
The outer peripheral holding member 52 includes a rib 57 near the proximal end portion 52b on the lower surface thereof. The rib 57 is configured such that a displacement portion 56 c formed at an intermediate portion of the torsion coil spring 56 can be engaged. When the center side holding member 51 is rotated, the torsion coil spring 56 is wound in the rotating direction as the center holding member 51 is rotated. Therefore, the displacement portion 56c is also shown in FIG. 5B from the state shown in FIG. In this manner, the outer peripheral holding member 52 is displaced inward and further protrudes. At this time, as shown in FIG. 5A, the shaft 53 that is in contact with the inside of the insertion hole 52c formed by a long hole is inserted as shown in FIG. It will contact | abut to the outer peripheral side of the hole 52c. The displacement mechanism includes an insertion hole 52c, a shaft 53, a torsion coil spring 56, and a rib 57.
[0028]
As shown in FIG. 7, the holding members 51 and 52 integrated by the shaft 53 and the torsion coil spring 56 are attached to the attachment holes 28 of the attachment portion 27 where the shaft 53 protrudes downward from the lower surface of the flat portion 21. Is attached to the frame part 20. The outer peripheral holding member 52 is accommodated in the opening 55 of the central holding member 51. Each of the holding members 51 and 52 has a reference position (a position indicated by a solid line in FIG. 3) that is substantially parallel to the receiving portion 30, and a bending position (a second position in FIG. 3) that is substantially perpendicular to the receiving portion 30. And a position indicated by a chain line). In FIG. 3, a state in which the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is rotated while being displaced inward is indicated by a two-dot chain line, but the outer peripheral side holding member 52 can be rotated even when it is not displaced. .
[0029]
The holding members 51 and 52 are urged in a direction to rotate from the bent position toward the reference position by the above-described action of the locking portion 56a and the support portion 56b of the torsion coil spring 56 wound around the shaft 53. Has been. The center-side holding member 51 rotates beyond the reference position in the direction from the bent position toward the reference position by the arm portion 54 coming into contact with the peripheral edge of the insertion hole 23 in the flat surface portion 21 of the frame portion 20. Is regulated. Similarly, the outer peripheral holding member 52 is rotated beyond the reference position in the direction from the bent position toward the reference position by a part of the tip 52a coming into contact with the peripheral edge of the insertion hole 23 of the frame part 20. It is regulated to move.
[0030]
Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 8, when a drink container (hereinafter referred to as a container) 70 of, for example, a 250 ml can is inserted into the insertion hole 23 of the frame portion 20 with respect to the drink container holder 10 in use, the container 70 is inserted. Each of the holding members 51 and 52 remains at the reference position, and the center side holding member 51 comes into contact with the outer surface of the container 70. For this reason, the container 70 inserted into the insertion hole 23 of the frame portion 20 is held by the inner peripheral surface 25 of the peripheral wall portion 24 and the distal end portion 51a of the center side holding member 51 at the reference position.
[0031]
Further, as shown in FIG. 9, when a container 71 of, for example, a 350 ml can is inserted into the insertion hole 23 of the frame portion 20 as a container, the center side holding member 51 is moved from the reference position toward the bent position by a predetermined angle. The tip portion 51 a contacts with the outer surface of the container 71. On the other hand, the outer peripheral side holding member 52 remains in the reference position and does not rotate toward the bent position, but comes into contact with the outer surface of the container 71. For this reason, the container 71 inserted into the insertion hole 23 of the frame portion 20 is held mainly by the inner peripheral surface 25 of the peripheral wall portion 24 and the distal end portion 52a of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 at the reference position. At the tip 51a of the center side holding member 51.
[0032]
By the way, when the container 72 (for example, a container having a diameter of about 56 mm) having an outer diameter between the both outer diameters corresponding to the both holding members 51 and 52 is inserted into the insertion hole 23, the center-side holding member 51 is As in the case of the container 71, the tip 51 a contacts the container 72 by rotating by a predetermined angle toward the bending position. Here, in the case of the conventional technique, the tip 72a of the outer peripheral holding member 52 that does not correspond to the container 72 and the inner peripheral surface 25 of the peripheral wall 24 are held, and the container 72 has a gap between them. Will be held in a state of being formed. Moreover, although the front-end | tip part 51a of the center side holding member 51 is also hold | maintained, since it hold | maintains under the container 72, holding | maintenance is weak. In this regard, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, the displacement portion 56 c of the torsion coil spring 56 displaces the outer peripheral holding member 52 inward as the center holding member 51 rotates. The tip 52 a protrudes so as to reduce the gap with the container 72 and abuts against the outer surface of the container 72. For this reason, the container 72 is held by the inner peripheral surface 25 of the peripheral wall portion 24 and the distal end portion 52 a of the outer peripheral side holding member 52.
[0033]
Further, as shown in FIG. 11, when the container 73 within the diameter D of the insertion hole 23 is inserted with the outer diameter not supported by the central holding member 51 and the outer peripheral holding member 52, both holding members are inserted. Each of 51 and 52 rotates by a predetermined angle from the reference position toward the bending position. The container 73 inserted into the insertion hole 23 of the frame portion 20 is held by the peripheral wall portion 24 and held at the lower side by the tip portions 51a and 52a of both holding members 51 and 52 rotated by a predetermined angle. It will be in the state.
[0034]
When the beverage container is taken out from the insertion hole 23 while the center side holding member 51 is rotating, the center side holding member 51 is rotated toward the reference position by the bias of the torsion coil spring 56. The outer peripheral side holding member 52 returns to the state before being displaced in linkage with the rotation. At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the center side holding member 51 is guided by the tip end portion 52a of the inclined outer peripheral side holding member 52 and can return to the original reference position without any problem.
[0035]
Therefore, according to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) Since the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is displaced inward, a drink container such as a container 72 having an outer diameter between the center side holding member 51 and the outer peripheral side holding member 52 at the reference position is inserted. Even in this case, the distal end portion 52a of the outer peripheral holding member 52 is in contact. For this reason, the drink container can be held in a stable state.
[0036]
(2) The displacement portion 56 c is formed in the torsion coil spring 56 that biases the center side holding member 51 to the reference position, and the displacement portion 56 c is engaged with the rib 57 of the outer peripheral side holding member 52. Thereby, when the center side holding member 51 is rotated, the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is displaced toward the center side linked to the rotation, so that the container is held in a stable state. In addition, when the center side holding member 51 returns to the reference position, since it is linked to the rotation, the displaced outer peripheral side holding member 52 also returns to the state before being displaced. Therefore, two operations, that is, displacement of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 and rotation of the central side holding member 51 can be performed by one torsion coil spring 56. There is no need to provide a member.
[0037]
(3) The front end portion 52a of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is formed of an inclined surface. For this reason, when the center side holding member 51 returns to the reference position by the urging of the torsion coil spring 56, it can return to the reference position without any problem while being guided by the inclined surface of the distal end portion 52a of the outer peripheral side holding member 52.
[0038]
(Modification)
Note that this embodiment may be modified as follows.
The displacement mechanism is not limited to the configuration in which the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is displaced inward by being linked to the rotation of the central side holding member 51 like the torsion coil spring 56 of the above embodiment. For example, as shown in FIG. 12A, the spring wire 80 is formed as a bent biasing member that is formed within the width of the opening 55, includes support portions 81 at both ends, and includes a displacement portion 82 at an intermediate portion. Is configured to be engaged with the rib 57. In addition, the shape of the rib 57 is not the structure engaged as in the above-described embodiment, but may be a simple concave rib 57 as shown in FIG. And the spring wire 80 is assembled | attached to the frame part 20 so that it may urge toward inner side in the state in which the outer peripheral side holding member 52 exists in a reference position. Although not specifically shown, the center-side holding member 51 includes, for example, a protrusion serving as a rotation shaft instead of the insertion hole 51c, and the torsion is performed while the protrusion is inserted into the mounting hole 28. It is biased to the reference position by a coil spring or the like. With this configuration, when the center side holding member 51 is in the reference position, the outer side holding member 52 is restricted from being displaced inward within the opening 55. Then, when the center side holding member 51 is rotated, the restriction by the center side holding member 51 is released, and the displacement portion 82 is displaced as shown by a one-dot chain line in FIG. Displace towards. In addition, the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is biased to the reference position when the support portion 81 is restricted by the protrusion 26 of the flat surface portion 21 during rotation. In addition, for example, as shown in FIG. 13A, the base end portion 52 b of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is directed inward by a coil spring 83 as an urging member attached to the protruding portion 26 of the frame portion 20. The configuration may be biased. Then, as the center side holding member 51 rotates, as shown in FIG. 13B, the outer peripheral side holding member 52 regulated by the center side holding member 51 is biased inward by the elastic force of the spring. The
[0039]
In the case of the above configuration, the center side holding member 51 can return to the reference position without any problem by configuring the tip end portion 52a of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 with an inclined surface as in the above embodiment. Note that the coil spring 83 shown in FIG. 13 can also be used in the above-described embodiment. In this case, the outer peripheral holding member 52 is smoothly projected inward by the elastic force of the coil spring 83. Further, instead of the coil spring 83, another elastic member such as a leaf spring can be used.
[0040]
○ The shaft 53 itself may be made of a spring material. For example, the shaft 53 itself of the above embodiment is constituted by a torsion coil spring 56, and the torsion coil spring 56 is provided with a locking portion 56a and a support portion 56b as in the above embodiment. Also with this configuration, the outer peripheral holding member 52 can be displaced by linking with the rotation of the central holding member 51 as in the above embodiment.
[0041]
In the above embodiment, another spring member such as a leaf spring may be used instead of the torsion coil spring 56. As long as the outer peripheral holding member 52 can be displaced inward, the spring member is not particularly limited.
[0042]
In the above embodiment, the outer side holding member 52 may be linked so as to be displaced according to the amount of rotation of the center side holding member 51. With this configuration, when the center side holding member 51 returns to the reference position, the outer side holding member 52 returns to the original state in accordance with the rotation of the link, so the center side holding member 51 is the outer side holding member. It is possible to return to the reference position without touching 52.
[0043]
The holding member 50 is not limited to the configuration including the center side holding member 51 and the outer peripheral side holding member 52, and may be a configuration including three or more. For example, in the case of three holding members, the two holding members on the outer peripheral side are configured to be displaceable, and the holding member on the outer peripheral side is displaced when the holding member on the central side rotates.
[0044]
(Circle) the outer peripheral side holding member 52 in which the front-end | tip part 52a is not comprised by the inclined surface may be sufficient.
In the above-described embodiment, the shaft 53 that serves as the axis of rotation is not provided, and instead of the insertion hole 51c of the center side holding member 51, a protrusion that is inserted into the insertion hole 52c of the outer peripheral side holding member 52 is provided. It is good also as a shaft of rotation. In this case, the torsion coil spring 56 has a configuration in which protrusions are fitted into both ends thereof, and the displacement portion 56c is attached to the rib 57 of the outer peripheral holding member 52 as in the above embodiment. Also with this configuration, the same effect as in the above embodiment can be obtained.
[0045]
The frame portion 20 has two insertion holes 23, but the number of insertion holes 23 provided in the insertion hole 23 is not limited to two. One or three or more insertion holes 23 may be provided for the frame portion 20.
[0046]
In the above embodiment, an example of a drink container holder having the receiving part 30 has been shown. However, the present invention can be similarly applied to a drink container holder not having the receiving part 30. In this case, instead of the placement surface 32 of the receiving part 30, for example, the surface of the design body arranged below the frame part 20 is used.
