Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention is a beverage container holder that is placed at the outlet of an air conditioner installed in an automobile or the like, and uses hot or cold air from this outlet to warm or cool the beverage in the placed container. It is about.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, this type of holder is placed in front of the outlet, and is used to cool or warm the beverage by placing a beverage container such as a can on it. This holder is, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-82232, a holder for attaching to a fin of an air-conditioning outlet, and a holder for connecting the attaching fixture to the back so that the holder can be inserted and removed. It was composed of a main body and hot air and cold air were introduced from the rear opening of the holder main body.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the holder described above, the air in the holder body in which the beverage container is placed easily stays, and it is difficult for hot air or cold air from the outlet to enter the holder body. In general, even when the beverage container is not placed and not in use, the holder is kept attached without being removed from the outlet. For this reason, the flow of blown hot air or cold air is likely to be greatly disturbed, and it is necessary to provide an opening / closing member that can close this opening with a structure in which the front surface of the holder main body is opened and to open this opening / closing member.

In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the present invention makes it possible for hot air and cold air from the air outlet to smoothly flow out after entering the main body of the holder, and to prevent air blown out even when the holder is not used. The object is to make the flow flow out to the front of the holder without significantly disturbing the flow, and to obtain a better beverage container holder.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and is arranged in the front part of an air conditioning outlet in a vehicle compartment and is attached to the air conditioning outlet and a mounting fixture that can be connected to and removed from the mounting fixture. A beverage container holder comprising a holder main body provided with a louver that is movable along the lateral direction of the front open portion of the holder main body. Then, the above-mentioned problems are solved.

[0006]

[Action]

 In the present invention, regardless of whether the holder is used or not, the hot air or cold air that has entered the holder body flows forward through the opening of the louver located in the front open part of the holder body. By moving, the wind direction will change.

[0007]

【Example】

 Next, the present invention will be described in detail based on an embodiment shown in FIGS. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a beverage container holder, which is composed of a mounting fixture 2 attached to an air conditioning outlet A and a holder body 3 to which the mounting fixture 2 is detachably connected, as shown in FIG. It is provided.

The holder main body 3 is open on the back side, the top side, and the front side, and warm air and cold air enter from the back opening 30 and a beverage container such as a can enters from the top opening 31. This upper surface open portion 31 is opened as a circular hole corresponding to the shape of the beverage container by making the front side of the holder body 3 bulge forward in an arc shape when viewed from above (Fig. 8). A support 32 is provided on the rear edge side of the upper surface open portion 31. This support 32 can be undulated and is always biased upward, and when a thin beverage container is placed on it, the support 32 is slightly inclined and abuts the container with the biased state, and a thick beverage container is placed on it. In such a case, the container is abutted in a biased state by largely falling, and is provided so as to hold the container with the front edge side of the upper surface open portion 31.

The louver 4 is attached to the front opening portion 33 located on the front surface of the holder body 3. The louver 4 has a plurality of vertical fins 40 on the left and right, and the vertical fins 40 serve as ventilation holes. Then, as shown in FIG. 2, the louver 4 is provided in an arc shape corresponding to the front surface shape of the holder body 3 when viewed from above, and the upper edge 41 and the lower edge 42 are the front opening portion 33. The louver 4 is provided so that the louver 4 can move laterally by being guided from the upper edge and the lower edge of the rail portion 34 extending in the holder body (see FIG. 11).

Since the louver 4 is located in the front opening portion 33 of the holder body 3 as described above, the warm air that has entered from the rear opening portion even when the beverage container is placed on it or is not used. The cold air does not stay inside the holder body, and comes out forward from the ventilation port of the louver 4. Then, by moving this louver laterally, the blowing direction is changed.

As shown in FIG. 3, the attachment fixture 2 has a receiving plate portion 20 located on the bottom surface side of the holder body 3, and an upright rear end extending from both sides of the receiving plate portion 20. It is composed of an L-shaped arm portion 21 and a stay 22 located between the rear ends of the arm portion 21 and facing the rear open portion 30 of the holder body 3. The receiving plate portion 20 is provided with a locking portion 23 on the front end side that passes between a pair of guides 35 on the bottom surface of the holder body 3. This locking portion 23 is movably locked to one of a plurality of locking irregularities 36 provided on the front surface of the back surface of the holder body 3 to position the holder body (see FIG. 11). In addition, the stage 22 has a pair of clips 24 that sandwich the fins B of the air conditioning outlet A as attachment means, and each of them can be laterally moved and adjusted. A rib 25 extends in the lower edge of the horizontal portion of the arm portion 21 in the withdrawal direction, and the rib 25 is in sliding contact with the holder body 3.

A slide groove 37 is provided inside the back surface of the holder body 3 so as to correspond to the arm 21 of the mounting fixture 2 so as to move in and out (see FIGS. 4 and 9). .. A guide wall 38 is provided upright on the outer edge of each slide groove 37, and the above-mentioned rib 25 is slidably in contact with the upper end of the guide wall 38. In this way, the rib 25 that slidably contacts the upper end of the guide wall 38 and the receiving plate portion 20 that receives the bottom surface of the holder body 3 hold the holder body 3 from above and below, and the holder body 3 is stable without rattling. It will be in the state of doing.

The inclination of the outlet to which the holder 1 is attached varies depending on the automobile. For this reason, in order to make the holder 1 arranged at this outlet substantially horizontal, the mounting fixture 2 is taken in and out, adjusted and positioned as described above, and the fin B is grasped by the clip 24. The lower back surface of the holder body 3 may be brought into contact with the outlet A (see FIG. 5).

[0014]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, a mounting fixture disposed in the front part of an air conditioning outlet in a vehicle compartment and attached to the air conditioning outlet, and this mounting fixture are connected so that they can be inserted and removed. In the beverage container holder consisting of the holder body, a louver movable along the lateral direction of the front opening portion is provided at the front opening portion of the holder body, regardless of whether the holder is used or not. Warm air or cold air that enters the holder body from the air outlet of the air conditioner will flow out forward through the louver, and it will be possible to efficiently warm and cool the beverage while using it, and also not to use it. Also, it does not significantly disturb the flow of warm air and cold air, and it has excellent practical effects.
