Conventionally, a storage lid as shown in FIG. It was a target. In such a storage lid, the hinges 73 connect the upper edges of the opposing side surfaces of both lids 71 and 72, and are bent at the hinges so as to show the lower surface 7a (broken line in FIG. 8). I was taking my luggage in and out.

[0003]

However, the storage lid has a poor appearance because the lower surface of the lid is shown.
Of course, the lower surface portion may be neatly applied in design, but the cost is increased accordingly. Also, it was difficult to remove the luggage under the lid 72. As shown by the dashed line in FIG. 8, it is sufficient to unfold all the lids 71 and 72 with the support shaft 8 as a fulcrum, but it has to be turned up twice, which is troublesome. Further, the support shaft 8
In this case, the weight of both lid portions 71 and 72 was increased, and the support shaft 8 was easily damaged. In addition, another luggage may be placed on the storage lid 7, but since the hinge portion 73 is bent, the lid 71 is lifted up as shown by a chain line in FIG. 9 and the lid is opened. There were also problems.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems. The lid can be easily opened and closed, and there is no problem even if a luggage is placed on the lid, and only the surface of the storage lid is shown. It is an object to provide a storage lid that can be opened and closed.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object,
The gist of the present invention according to claim 1 is a storage container having a top surface opening and a storage lid capable of closing the opening of the storage portion, wherein a pair of two divided lid portions and a lower edge of a facing side surface of both lid portions are provided. An integrally molded product having a hinge portion for connecting the two lids, and further, when the upper edges of the opposing side surfaces of both lids form a projecting butting portion, when the lids are pushed open and flattened, the butting is performed. The storage lid is characterized in that the parts come into contact with each other. According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the storage lid according to the first aspect, wherein a skin is integrally attached to an upper surface of the lid. here,
Also in the case where the butting portions come into contact with the skin interposed therebetween, the butting portions referred to in claim 1 come into contact with each other.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, when a hinge portion is provided to connect the lower edges of the opposing side surfaces of the both lid portions, if the storage lid is pushed inward, the storage container is opened and the opening of the storage container is broken. Can be opened at a time, which makes it easier to load and unload luggage. Then, a butt portion is formed at the upper edge portion of the opposing side surface of the both lid portions, and when the both lid portions are spread out and flattened, the butt portions come into contact with each other. There is no problem such as the lid jumping up even if the luggage is placed. In addition, when the storage lid is opened and closed and the mountain breaks,
Since the lower surface of the storage lid does not appear, it suffices to provide the decoration of the skin only on the upper surface of the storage lid.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of a storage lid according to the present invention will be described in detail.

(1) Embodiment 1 FIGS. 1 to 6 show an embodiment of a storage lid according to the present invention. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a storage lid and a storage container covered by the storage lid, and FIG. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the lid, FIG. 3 is a sectional view of FIG. 1, and FIG.
FIG. 5 is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 4, and FIG. 6 is an explanatory sectional view of a storage lid and a forming die for manufacturing the same.

In this embodiment, a storage case B is formed by the storage container 1 and the storage lid 2 according to the present invention. The storage container 1 is a rectangular hollow container having an upper surface opening O, and each wall surface is formed with a predetermined thickness. Then, a receiving surface 11 for supporting the storage lid 2 is formed on the periphery of the opening O. Further, a rising portion 12 having a thickness of about the thickness of the storage lid 2 is provided on the outer periphery of the receiving surface, and plays a role of guiding the storage lid 2. The rising portion 12 is provided with a hole 14 for inserting a pin 24 described later.

The storage lid 2 is a synthetic resin board having a thickness t as a lid. In the present embodiment, the space S is appropriately provided by blow molding to reduce the weight. A large number of ribs forming the space S are provided to maintain rigidity. The cross section of the rib is assumed to be open in a C shape in consideration of the mold release during molding. As shown in FIG. 4, the storage lid 2 includes a pair of lids 21, 21 divided into two parts, and two opposite side surfaces 2 of the lids 21.
It is an integrally molded product comprising a hinge portion 22 connecting lower edges of 1d and 21d. At the time of blow molding, a hinge function is exerted by forming a thin portion of the hinge portion 22.

Then, the upper edges of the opposing side surfaces 21d of the two lid portions 21 connected by the hinge portion 22 are extended to form the butting portions 23, 23 (FIG. 4). When the hinge portions 22 are opened and the lid portions 21 are flattened, the butting portions 23
There is a configuration in which they come into contact with each other. As shown in FIG. 5, a hollow portion α surrounded by the butting portion 23, the hinge portion 22, and the opposing side surface 21d is provided so that the butting portion 23 always matches. At this time, the storage lid 2 has a size such that the side edge rests on the receiving surface 11 and the opening O of the storage container 1 can be completely covered (FIG. 3). Even if the butted portion 23 is formed, the production of the storage lid 2 is facilitated by using the blow molds 4 and 5 as shown in FIG. The storage lid 2 bent at the hinge part 22 is formed in accordance with the bulging of the butting part 23, and the mold is removed. Reference numeral 24 denotes a pin formed at the end of the storage lid 2. The pin 24 is pivotally mounted on the hole 14 provided in the rising portion 12 of the storage container 1, and the pin 24 is used as a fulcrum on the storage container 1. It can be opened and closed. Although not shown, the storage lid 2 is provided with a handle as necessary to facilitate opening and closing.

The opening and closing operation of the storage lid 2 is as follows. When the front lid 21 is pushed rearward, the two lids 21 are bent at the hinge 22 and stand up as shown in FIG. Since the cover 21 moves while sliding on the receiving surface 11, the cover 21 is smooth, and when the two covers 21 and 21 stand up, the entire opening appears (FIG. 3). On the other hand, if the front cover 21 is pulled, the cover 21
Develops and closes the opening O.

The storage lid 2 configured as described above can be used even if the storage container 1 is closed by the storage lid 2.
All the openings O are opened by one action of pushing 1 forward. It does not require two operations as in the case of a valley-folding type storage case (FIG. 8). Further, if the lid 21 is pulled toward the user, the container 1 can be easily covered. As described above, opening and closing the lid 21 becomes extremely easy. Further, even when luggage is placed on the covered storage lid 2, the butting parts 23 come into contact with each other to serve as a stopper, so that the conventional lid 71 can be prevented from jumping up as shown in FIG. 2 will not be opened carelessly. Furthermore, since the lower surface of the storage lid 2 is not visible during the operation of opening the storage lid 2,
It is only necessary to apply a top surface design such as embossing on the front side, and there is also an advantage that it can be manufactured at low cost.

(2) Embodiment 2 As shown in FIG. 7, the storage lid of this embodiment is applied to a luggage floor (storage part) of a car and a box (storage part) capable of storing luggage under the luggage floor. It is. Boxes have been installed on the luggage carrier of station wagons and RV vehicles so that luggage and the like can be stored under the luggage carrier. This is the storage lid 2. The storage section 1 is a part of the body of the car. An opening O is provided on the floor 16 with a step 17 therebetween, and a receiving surface 18 is formed around the opening.

The storage lid 2 is basically the same as the first embodiment. However, a carpet 3 as a skin is integrally attached to the upper surface of the storage lid 2 of the present embodiment. The storage lid 2 is made of polypropylene (PP) or P with filler glass.
A blow-molded product made of a synthetic resin such as P, ABS, HDPE, etc., while the carpet 3 is made of, for example, polyester-PP.
Decorative rug comprising a needle tact carpet or the like. The integration of the carpet 3 into the storage lid 2 may be performed by a method of integral molding at the blow molding stage, a method of integrating the storage lid 2 with the storage lid 2 later by bonding, or the like. In addition, the hinge part 22
Need not be carpeted. In the present embodiment, no pins 24 are provided on the storage lid 2.

The other structure is basically the same as that of the first embodiment. However, when the two lid portions 21 are spread and flattened, the butting portions 23 abut against each other with the carpet 3 interposed therebetween. Become. 7, the same reference numerals as in the first embodiment denote the same components, and a description thereof will be omitted.

The storage lid 2 configured as described above has, in addition to the operation and effect of the first embodiment, a decorative lid that covers the upper surface of the storage lid 2 when the storage lid 2 is opened and closed, so that the lower surface of the storage lid is not visible. Since only the carpet 3 appears, the design is excellent. Furthermore, when the hinge part 22 is also covered with the carpet 3,
The appearance is further improved. Further, by simply pushing the front lid portion 21 toward the back, the opening O is widened at a stretch, so that loading and unloading of the back luggage becomes easy.

In the present invention, the present invention is not limited to those shown in the above embodiments, but can be variously changed within the scope of the present invention depending on the purpose and application. The shape and size of the storage container 1, storage part 1, storage lid 2, lid part 21, hinge part 22, butting part 23, etc.
The material and the like can be appropriately selected according to the application.

[0019]

As described above, the storage lid according to the present invention is not only easy to open and close the lid, but also stable even when luggage is placed on the storage lid, and furthermore, the design is applied. It has excellent effects such as opening and closing while showing only the storage lid surface.
