Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle seat, and more particularly to a cup holder provided in an armrest. [Background technology]
[0002] Patent Document 1 below discloses a cup holder for a rear seat armrest. This cup holder has a holder that can be raised and lowered relative to a base, and is configured so that the holder automatically lowers when the lid is closed. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 7-21432 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] In the above prior art, when a beverage container is placed on the base of the cup holder, the height of the holder cannot be adjusted to increase, so if the beverage container is tall, there is a risk that the beverage container will become unstable and tip over.
[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide a cup holder that can stably hold even tall beverage containers, and a vehicle seat equipped with the cup holder. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] The cup holder of the first embodiment is attached to the armrest of a vehicle seat and comprises a base portion having a bottom wall portion that supports a beverage container and an outer peripheral wall portion that is arranged around the beverage container, a lifting portion that fits inside the outer peripheral wall portion and has an inner peripheral wall portion that is arranged around the beverage container and is capable of rising and falling in the height direction of the beverage container relative to the base portion, and a holding portion that holds the lifting portion on the base portion when the lifting portion is in a raised position and a lowered position relative to the base portion.
[0007] In the cup holder of the first aspect, a base portion attached to the armrest of a vehicle seat has a bottom wall portion that supports a beverage container and an outer peripheral wall portion that is arranged around the beverage container. An inner peripheral wall portion of a lifting portion is fitted inside the outer peripheral wall portion, and this inner peripheral wall portion is arranged around the beverage container. The lifting portion is capable of rising and falling in the height direction of the beverage container relative to the base portion. When the lifting portion is in a raised position or a lowered position relative to the base portion, the lifting portion is held by the holding portion on the base portion. Therefore, if the beverage container is tall, even a tall beverage container can be stably held by holding the lifting portion in a raised position relative to the base portion.
[0008] The cup holder of the second aspect is the same as that of the first aspect, wherein the holding portion has a claw portion formed on one of the base portion and the lifting portion, and a plurality of fitting portions formed on the other of the base portion and the lifting portion into which the claw portion can fit.
[0009] According to the second aspect of the cup holder, the claws formed on one of the base and the lifting / lowering part fit into one of the multiple fittings formed on the other of the base and the lifting / lowering part, thereby holding the lifting / lowering part in a raised or lowered position relative to the base, allowing the holding part to have a simple configuration.
[0010] The cup holder of a third aspect is the cup holder of the second aspect, wherein the one side is formed with a slit for elastically deforming the periphery of the claw portion to release the holding.
[0011] According to the cup holder of the third aspect, the slits formed in either the base or the lifting unit allow the periphery of the claw to be elastically deformed, and the aforementioned holding can be released by this elastic deformation, which makes it easier to raise and lower the lifting unit relative to the base.
[0012] In the cup holder of the fourth aspect, in the second or third aspect, the claw portion has an inclined surface, and when the lifting portion is pushed downward while in the raised position, the inclined surface slides against the edge of the insertion portion, and the holding is released.
[0013] In the cup holder of the fourth aspect, when the lifting / lowering part is pushed downward while it is in a raised position relative to the base part, the inclined surface of the claw part slides against the edge of the fitting part, and the holding part is released. Therefore, for example, in a configuration in which an armrest to which this cup holder is attached is stored in a recess formed in the seat back, the lifting / lowering part, which is in a raised position relative to the base part, hits the bottom of the recess when the armrest is stored, making it possible to automatically lower the lifting / lowering part.
[0014] The cup holder of the fifth aspect is any one of the first to fourth aspects, in which the base portion has two outer peripheral wall portions aligned radially from each other, and the lifting portion has two inner peripheral wall portions aligned radially from each other.
[0015] In the cup holder of the fifth aspect, the two inner peripheral walls of the lifting part are fitted inside the two outer peripheral walls of the base part. The two outer peripheral walls and the two inner peripheral walls are aligned radially. This allows two beverage containers to be held aligned radially.
[0016] The cup holder of the sixth aspect is the cup holder of the fifth aspect, wherein the lifting section is divided between the two inner peripheral wall sections, and each of the inner peripheral wall sections can be individually raised and lowered in the height direction relative to the base section.
[0017] In the cup holder of the sixth aspect, the two inner peripheral walls of the lifting part can be raised and lowered independently relative to the base part, so that, for example, if only one of two beverage containers is tall, only the inner peripheral wall that holds that one can be raised relative to the base part.
[0018] A vehicle seat of a seventh aspect includes a seat cushion on which an occupant sits, a seat back that supports the back of the occupant and has a recess formed therein, an armrest attached to the seat back so as to be rotatable between a storage position in which it is stored in the recess and an extended position in which it extends forward of the seat from a lower portion of the recess, and which is capable of supporting the arms of the occupant when in the extended position, and a cup holder of any one of the first to fifth aspects attached to the armrest.
[0019] In a vehicle seat according to a seventh aspect, the back of an occupant seated on a seat cushion is supported by the seat back. An armrest attached to the seat back is rotatable between a stored position where it is stored in a recess formed in the seat back and an extended position where it extends from a lower portion of the recess toward the front of the seat. The cup holder attached to the armrest is one of the first to sixth aspects, and therefore the above-mentioned effects can be obtained. [Effects of the Invention]
[0020] As described above, the cup holder and vehicle seat according to the present invention can stably hold even tall beverage containers. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0022] First Embodiment A vehicle seat 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figures 1 to 13. Note that in each figure, some reference numerals may be omitted to make the drawings easier to understand. Furthermore, arrows FR, RH, and UP, which are appropriately shown in Figures 1 to 3, indicate the front, right, and top of the vehicle seat 10, respectively.
[0023] 1, the vehicle seat 10 according to this embodiment is a rear seat for seating three passengers, and includes a seat cushion 12 on which vehicle occupants sit, a seatback 14 that supports the backs of the occupants, three headrests 16 that support the heads of the occupants, and an armrest 20 that supports the arms of the occupants. The armrest 20 is attached to the seatback 14 so as to be rotatable between an unfolded position (the position shown in FIGS. 1 and 3) in which it extends forward from the bottom of a recess 18 formed in the center of the seatback 14 in the left-right direction, and a stored position (the position shown in FIG. 2) in which it is stored within the recess 18.
[0024] When the armrest 20 is in the deployed position, the front-rear, left-right, up-down directions of the armrest 20 coincide with the front-rear, left-right, up-down directions of the vehicle seat 10. When the armrest 20 is in the stored position, the front-rear direction of the armrest 20 coincides with the height direction of the seat back 14, the left-right direction of the armrest 20 coincides with the left-right direction of the vehicle seat 10, and the up-down direction of the armrest 20 coincides with the front-rear direction of the seat back 14. Hereinafter, when the front-rear, left-right, up-down directions are simply used in the description, they refer to directions relative to the armrest 20.
[0025] The armrest 20 comprises an armrest pad 22 made of foam, an armrest skin 24 covering the surface of the armrest pad 22, an armrest frame (not shown) embedded in the armrest pad 22 by integral foam molding, and a cup holder 30 attached to the armrest pad 22 by integral foam molding. The armrest pad 22 corresponds to the "pad" in this invention.
[0026] The armrest pad 22 is made of a foam such as urethane foam and has the shape of a long rectangular parallelepiped with the longitudinal direction being the front-to-rear direction of the armrest 20, the left-to-right direction of the armrest 20 as the width direction, and the vertical direction of the armrest 20 as the thickness direction. The width dimension of the armrest pad 22 is set larger than the thickness dimension of the armrest pad 22. The armrest covering 24 is made into a bag shape by sewing together multiple covering pieces made of cloth, leather, synthetic leather, etc., and is placed over the armrest pad 22.
[0027] A cup holder 30 capable of accommodating and holding beverage containers such as cups and plastic bottles is provided in the front of the armrest 20. When the armrest 20 is in the deployed position, the cup holder 30 is capable of holding two beverage containers side by side in the left-right direction. The beverage containers held in the cup holder 30 are arranged with the vertical direction of the armrest 20 as their height direction. As shown in Figures 4 to 6, the cup holder 30 has a base portion 32 and a lifting portion 40. Note that the arrows AFR, AUP, and ALH, which are appropriately depicted in Figures 4 to 6 and 11 to 13, indicate the front, left, and top of the armrest 20, respectively.
[0028] 7 and 8, the base 32 is manufactured by, for example, resin injection molding, and has a long box shape that is open upward and extends left-right. The base 32 integrally includes a bottom wall 32B that supports the two beverage containers from below, and two outer peripheral walls 32S that are disposed around the two beverage containers, respectively.
[0029] The bottom wall portion 32B has a long plate shape with the thickness direction in the up-down direction and the longitudinal direction in the left-right direction. The left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S have a generally C-shaped cylindrical shape that opens toward the center in the left-right direction when viewed in the up-down direction, and are aligned radially (here, left-right). Two front and rear connecting wall portions 32C are provided between the left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S, aligned at a distance in the front-to-rear direction with the thickness direction in the front-to-rear direction. The left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S are integrally connected via the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C.
[0030] Flanges 32F extend forward, backward, left, and right from the upper ends of the left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S and the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C. A plurality of locking portions 34 that lock onto the frame of the armrest 20 are provided on the outer periphery of each of the left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S. Two upper and lower insertion holes 36, 38 are formed in each of the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C. Each of the insertion holes 36, 38 penetrates the corresponding connecting wall portion 32C. The upper and lower insertion holes 36, 38 each correspond to the "insertion portion" in this invention.
[0031] The base portion 32 configured as described above is attached to the frame of the armrest 20 by engaging the multiple locking portions 34 with the frame of the armrest 20, and is embedded in a recess formed in the armrest pad 22. The flange portion 32F is located on the outer side (upper surface side) of the armrest pad 22. The armrest covering 24 is not provided where the base portion 32 is provided on the upper surface of the armrest 20, and the left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S are open to the upper side of the armrest 20.
[0032] 9 and 10, the lifting / lowering unit 40 is manufactured by, for example, resin injection molding, and has a long, cylindrical shape with openings on both the top and bottom sides and a longitudinal direction in the left-right direction. The lifting / lowering unit 40 has two inner peripheral wall portions 40S, one on the left and one on the right, which are respectively arranged around the two beverage containers.
[0033] The left and right inner peripheral wall portions 40S are generally C-shaped cylinders that open toward the center in the left-right direction when viewed in the up-down direction, and are aligned radially (here, left-right). Two front and rear connecting wall portions 40C are provided between the left and right inner peripheral wall portions 40S, aligned at a distance in the front-to-rear direction with the plate thickness direction in the front-to-rear direction. The left and right inner peripheral wall portions 40S are integrally connected via the front and rear connecting wall portions 40C.
[0034] Flanges 40F extend forward, rearward, leftward, and rightward from the upper ends of the left and right inner peripheral wall portions 40S and the front and rear connecting wall portions 40C. Claw portions 42 are formed in the vertical middle portions of the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C, respectively. The claw portion 42 formed on the front connecting wall portion 40C protrudes forward, while the claw portion 42 formed on the rear connecting wall portion 40C protrudes rearward. These claw portions 42, together with upper and lower insertion holes 36, 38 formed in the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C of the base portion 32, constitute the retaining portion 35.
[0035] In the lifting / lowering unit 40 configured as described above, a slit 44 is formed on each of the left and right sides of each of the claws 42. Each slit 44 extends in the vertical direction and is cut from the flange 40F side of the lifting / lowering unit 40 toward the lower sides of the left and right inner peripheral wall portions 40S. In this lifting / lowering unit 40, the areas between the left and right slits 44 each serve as an operating portion 40A. The front and rear operating portions 40A each have the above-mentioned claws 42 formed therein. The front and rear operating portions 40A are elastically deformable in directions approaching each other.
[0036] The left and right inner peripheral wall portions 40S of the lifting / lowering unit 40 are fitted inside the left and right outer peripheral wall portions 32S of the base unit 32, forming a two-layer structure consisting of the inner peripheral wall portions 40S and the outer peripheral wall portions 32S. The front and rear connecting wall portions 40C of the lifting / lowering unit 40 are disposed between the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C of the base unit 32, forming a two-layer structure consisting of the connecting wall portions 40C and the connecting wall portions 32C. The lifting / lowering unit 40 is supported by the base unit 32 so as to be able to rise and fall between a lowered position shown in FIGS. 4, 5, and 11 and an upper position shown in FIGS. 6 and 12.
[0037] When the lifting / lowering unit 40 is in the lowered position, the claws 42 fit into the fitting holes 38 on the lower sides of the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C. This causes the lifting / lowering unit 40 to be held (retained) in the lowered position relative to the base portion 32. When the lifting / lowering unit 40 is in the raised position, the claws 42 fit into the fitting holes 36 on the upper sides of the front and rear connecting wall portions 32C. This causes the lifting / lowering unit 40 to be held (retained) in the raised position relative to the base portion 32. When the lifting / lowering unit 40 is raised or lowered relative to the base portion 32, the front and rear operating portions 40A of the lifting / lowering unit 40 are elastically deformed in directions approaching each other, and the above-mentioned fitting is released.
[0038] 13, a retaining portion 46 that protrudes toward the inner peripheral wall portion 40S is provided at the upper edge of the upper insertion hole 36. This retaining portion 46 interferes with the claw portion 42 from above, thereby restricting the lifting unit 40 from rising above the raised position. In addition, a protrusion 48 that protrudes toward the inner peripheral wall portion 40S is provided at the lower edge of the upper insertion hole 36. When the claw portion 42 is inserted into the upper insertion hole 36, the claw portion 42 is configured to climb over the protrusion 48.
[0039] The tip surface of each claw portion 42 has a flat surface 50 on the lower side and an inclined surface 52 on the upper side. The upper side of each claw portion 42, where the inclined surface 52 is formed, protrudes higher from each connecting wall portion 40C than the lower side, where the flat surface is formed. The inclined surface 52 of each claw portion 42 is inclined so that the protruding height of each claw portion 42 decreases as it goes downward.
[0040] When the lifting unit 40 is pushed downward while in the raised position, the inclined surfaces 52 of the claws 42 slide against the lower edges of the upper insertion holes 36, causing the front and rear operating units 40A to elastically deform in directions approaching each other. This releases the lifting unit 40 from the raised position.
[0041] In the vehicle seat 10 configured as described above, the back of an occupant seated on the seat cushion 12 is supported by the seat back 14. An armrest 20 attached to the seat back 14 is rotatable between a stored position where it is stored in a recess 18 formed in the seat back 14 and an extended position where it extends forward from a lower portion of the recess 18. A cup holder 30 is attached to the armrest 20.
[0042] In the cup holder 30 described above, the base portion 32 attached to the armrest 20 has a bottom wall portion 32B that supports a beverage container and an outer peripheral wall portion 32S that is arranged around the beverage container. An inner peripheral wall portion 40S of the lifting / lowering portion 40 is fitted inside the outer peripheral wall portion 32S, and the inner peripheral wall portion 40S is arranged around the beverage container. The lifting / lowering portion 40 is capable of moving up and down in the height direction of the beverage container relative to the base portion 32. When the lifting / lowering portion 40 is in a raised position or a lowered position relative to the base portion 32, the lifting / lowering portion 40 is held on the base portion 32 by the holding portion 35. Therefore, when the beverage container is tall, even a tall beverage container can be stably held by holding the lifting / lowering portion 40 in a raised position relative to the base portion 32.
[0043] In other words, due to seat layout restrictions, cup holder 30 attached to armrest 20 could not adopt a shape that protruded from the shape of armrest 20, making it difficult to hold tall beverage containers. However, in this embodiment, the height (depth) of cup holder 30 can be adjusted, making it possible to stably hold tall beverage containers without compromising the design of armrest 20.
[0044] In addition, in this cup holder 30, the claws 42 formed on the lifting / lowering part 40 fit into either the upper or lower fitting holes 36, 38 formed in the base part 32. This allows the lifting / lowering part 40 to be held in a raised or lowered position relative to the base part 32, allowing the holding part 35 to have a simple configuration.
[0045] Furthermore, in this cup holder 30, the slits 44 formed in the lifting / lowering part 40 allow the periphery of the claws 42 to be elastically deformed, and the above-mentioned holding can be released by this elastic deformation. This makes it easy to raise and lower the lifting / lowering part 40 relative to the base part 32.
[0046] Furthermore, in this cup holder 30, when the lifting / lowering section 40 is pushed downward while it is in a raised position relative to the base section 32, the inclined surface 52 of the claw section 42 comes into sliding contact with the edge of the insertion hole 36, and the holding section 35 is released from its holding position. Therefore, when the armrest 20 (see FIG. 3) in the deployed position is stored in the recess 18 of the seat back 14, the lifting / lowering section 40 in the raised position comes into contact with the bottom surface 18A of the recess 18, and the lifting / lowering section 40 can be automatically lowered (see FIG. 2).
[0047] In addition, in this cup holder 30, two inner peripheral walls 40S of the lifting unit 40 are fitted inside two outer peripheral walls 32S of the base unit 32. The two outer peripheral walls 32S and the two inner peripheral walls 40S are aligned radially, allowing two beverage containers to be held aligned radially.
[0048] <Second embodiment> Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. Note that the same reference numerals as in the first embodiment are used for the configurations and operations that are basically the same as those in the first embodiment, and the description thereof will be omitted.
[0049] 14 and 15 are perspective views of a cup holder 60 according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In this cup holder 60, the lifting section 40 is divided into a left section 40L and a right section 40R between two inner peripheral walls 40S, and each inner peripheral wall 40S can be individually raised and lowered in the height direction of the beverage container relative to the base section 32.
[0050] As shown in Fig. 16, two upper and lower insertion holes 36, 38 are formed in the front and rear surfaces of each outer peripheral wall portion 32S of the base portion 32. As shown in Figs. 17 to 20, a claw portion 42 is formed in the front and rear surfaces of each inner peripheral wall portion 40S of the lifting / lowering portion 40. Slits 44 are formed in each inner peripheral wall portion 40S of the lifting / lowering portion 40 on both the left and right sides of each claw portion 42, and the spaces between the left and right slits 44 form operating portions 40A.
[0051] The left and right portions 40L, 40R are held in the lowered position by fitting the respective claws 42 into the lower fitting holes 38 (see FIG. 19). The left and right portions 40L, 40R are held in the raised position by fitting the respective claws 42 into the upper fitting holes 36 (see FIG. 20). In this embodiment, the configuration other than that described above is basically the same as that of the first embodiment.
[0052] In this embodiment as well, if the beverage container is tall, it is possible to stably hold even a tall beverage container by holding the left portion 40L and the right portion 40R of the lifting / lowering unit 40 in a position elevated relative to the base portion 32. Moreover, in this embodiment, the left portion 40L and the right portion 40R of the lifting / lowering unit 40 (i.e., the two inner peripheral wall portions 40S) can be raised and lowered independently relative to the base portion 32. Therefore, if only one of the two beverage containers is tall, only the inner peripheral wall portion 40S that holds that one can be raised relative to the base portion 32.
[0053] Although the present invention has been described above using two embodiments, the present invention can be practiced with various modifications within the scope of the gist thereof. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. [Explanation of symbols]
