  • Publication number: 20240001856
    Abstract: A console box includes a box main body, a lid, first coupling portions respectively provided at opposite end portions in a width direction of the box main body, a second coupling portion that is provided at at least one end portion of opposite end portions in the width direction of the lid, a lock mechanism, an operation portion, a guide portion provided in the box main body. The guide portion allows for a movement of the lid in which the second coupling portion moves from a position at which the second coupling portion is coupled to the first coupling portion at one end portion in the width direction to a position at which the second coupling portion is coupled to the first coupling portion at the other end portion. The guide portion guides the lid at the second coupling portion during the movement.

  • Patent number: 10526830
    Abstract: A gap is maintained between: an outer surface of a shaft which is inserted in and removed from a hole of a box body and serves as a rotation shaft; and a hole wall, while axial misalignment of the shaft in the hole is inhibited. In a double opening storage device, a lid has two shafts that extend so as to advance and retract along two rotation shafts. Each shaft has a cut portion which is obtained by a part of a circumferential portion of a leading end portion being cut out and disposed in a lower portion at lid closed position. The box body has two holes, formed in a side wall, corresponding to the two shafts of the lid, and has a projection that projects upward from a lower surface of the hole wall of each hole, and that moves the shaft upward when the lid is opened.

  • Patent number: 10507956
    Abstract: A lid mechanism includes: a box main body; a lid; a locking element that includes a rod and a rod biasing member; and a flap element that includes a flap main body and a flap biasing member and a box contact portion which is configured to come into contact with the box main body, wherein: when the state of the lid changes from the closed state to the opened state, the pressing inclined surface provided in the rod contact portion of the flap main body presses the pressure receiving inclined surface provided in the rod; and when the state of the lid changes from the opened state to the closed state, the box contact portion of the flap main body comes into contact with the box main body such that the pressing of the pressing inclined surface to the pressure receiving inclined surface is released.

  • Patent number: 10434950
    Abstract: A double opening storage device includes two opening and closing mechanisms that open and close a lid leftward and rightward relative to a box body. Each opening and closing mechanism include: a shaft member disposed so as to be coaxial with a rotation shaft; a support member that supports the shaft member so as to rotate the shaft member; an urging member that generates urging force for rotating the shaft member relative to the support member in an opening direction; and a locking device that holds the lid in a closed state against the urging force, and cancels, by an opening operation, holding of the lid. The shaft member and the support member include opposing surfaces, respectively, which are spaced from each other in the lid closed state, and projections, respectively, which interfere with each other while the lid is shifting from the closed state to a predetermined opened state.
