Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle fire extinguisher stand.

Background Art

[0002] Generally, a vehicle fire extinguisher is a device provided in a vehicle so that a driver can quickly suppress a fire when a fire occurs inside or outside the vehicle.

[0003] Recently, the installation of vehicle fire extinguishers has been increasingly obligatory due to vehicle fires. That is, in the case of vehicles with seven or more passengers, the installation of fire extinguishers is currently obligatory, and from December 2024, all vehicles with five or more passengers will be equipped with fire extinguishers or the installation will be obligatory.

[0004] With such an obligation to install, in fact, existing vehicle fire extinguishers are provided in the vehicle only by being placed as they are without being fixed inside the vehicle cabin or the trunk.

[0005] However, when the vehicle fire extinguisher is placed as it is inside the vehicle cabin, the vehicle fire extinguisher may move inside the vehicle during driving, and there is a problem that a safety accident may be induced because the vehicle fire extinguisher is caught between the brake pedal when it moves like this.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0006] The technical problem of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional vehicle fire extinguisher stand that can detachably fix a vehicle fire extinguisher to a foot mat inside the vehicle cabin.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0007] To achieve the above objective, the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a stationary body; a fire extinguisher gripping portion provided on a part of the stationary body for gripping a vehicle fire extinguisher; and a foot mat mounting portion provided on the other part of the stationary body for detachably attaching to a foot mat.

[0008] The foot mat mounting portion may include a lower underlay portion that supports the lower surface of the foot mat; an upper underlay portion that supports the upper surface of the foot mat; and an elastic connecting portion that connects the front end of the lower underlay portion and the front end of the upper underlay portion while applying elastic force so that the space between the rear end of the lower underlay portion and the rear end of the upper underlay portion is narrowed.

[0009] The foot mat mounting portion may further include anti-slip protrusions provided on the surface of the lower underlay portion facing the upper underlay portion to prevent the foot mat from sliding from the lower surface.

[0010] The foot mat mounting portion may further include an upward bending portion that extends from the rear end of the upper underlay portion in a bent state, but is bent in a direction that moves further away from the lower underlay portion as it goes toward the rear end of the upper underlay portion.

[0011] The foot mat mounting portion may further include a through hole that penetrates the upper underlay portion; and a fastening hole that penetrates the lower underlay portion and forms a center such as the through hole for fastening a bolt.

[0012] The through-hole may have a larger diameter than the fastening hole so that the bolt head can pass through.

[0013] The foot mat mounting portion may include a first foot mat mounting portion provided at one end of the stationary body and a second foot mat mounting portion provided at the other end of the stationary body.

[0014] The fire extinguisher gripping portion may include: a first arc-shaped strap provided on one side of the stationary body and surrounding a portion of the vehicle fire extinguisher; a second arc-shaped strap provided on the other side of the stationary body and surrounding the rest of the vehicle fire extinguisher; and a connector that detachably connects the first arc-shaped strap and the second arc-shaped strap.

[0015] The multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand according to the embodiment of the present invention described above may further include a fire extinguisher base that supports the lower end surface of the vehicle fire extinguisher.

[0016] The aforementioned fire extinguisher base portion may further include a fire extinguisher-facing projection that is relatively protruding and formed to support the vehicle fire extinguisher by being sandwiched in the middle of the lower end surface that is recessed. [Effects of the Invention]

[0017] As described above, the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand according to the embodiment of the present invention can have the following effects.

[0018] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher is provided with a stationary body, a fire extinguisher gripping part, and a foot mat mounting part. The vehicle fire extinguisher, which is gripped by the fire extinguisher gripping part on the stationary body, can be detachably attached to the foot mat through the foot mat mounting part. This prevents the vehicle fire extinguisher from moving around inside the vehicle while it is in operation, and in particular, it prevents the vehicle fire extinguisher from being located on the brake pedal, thus preventing safety accidents caused by this.

[0019] Furthermore, according to embodiments of the present invention, the foot mat mounting portion provides a technical configuration including a lower underlay portion, an upper underlay portion, and an elastic connecting portion. This allows the foot mat to be detachably inserted between the lower underlay portion and the upper underlay portion so that the lower surface of the foot mat is placed on the lower underlay portion and the upper surface of the foot mat is placed on the upper underlay portion. Additionally, the elastic connecting portion, which connects the front end of the lower underlay portion and the front end of the upper underlay portion, narrows the space between the rear end of the lower underlay portion and the rear end of the upper underlay portion, allowing the foot mat mounting portion to be firmly attached to the foot mat.

[0020] Furthermore, according to embodiments of the present invention, the foot mat mounting portion provides a technical configuration that further includes anti-slip protrusions, thereby increasing the frictional force between the lower surface of the foot mat and the lower underlay portion through the anti-slip protrusions. This prevents the foot mat mounting portion from coming off even when inertial forces generated when the vehicle is suddenly stopped or suddenly started act on the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand of the present invention.

[0021] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the foot mat mounting portion provides a technical configuration that further includes an upward bending portion. As the foot mat is inserted between the lower and upper underlay portions, the user does not need to hold a gap between the lower and upper underlay portions with their hand. Instead, the edge of the foot mat can be smoothly inserted into the space formed between the upward bending portion and the lower underlay portion through the upward bending portion.

[0022] Furthermore, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the foot mat mounting portion provides a technical configuration that further includes through holes and fastening holes, so that bolts can be fastened to the foot mat inserted between the lower underlay portion and the upper underlay portion through the through holes and fastening holes, thereby more firmly fixing the foot mat mounting portion to the foot mat.

[0023] Furthermore, according to embodiments of the present invention, the through-hole has a larger diameter than the fastening hole so that the bolt head can pass through. As the bolt is sequentially fastened to the foot mat and the fastening hole with the bolt head passing through the through-hole, the bolt head can be tightly pressed against the upper surface of the foot mat, preventing the foot mat from tearing even when external forces such as the inertial force of the vehicle are generated. Additionally, the bolt head can be positioned inward from the upper underlay portion, preventing it from coming into contact with the vehicle's fire extinguisher.

[0024] In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, since the foot mat mounting portion provides a technical configuration including a first foot mat mounting portion and a second foot mat mounting portion, the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand of the present invention can be mounted at two positions on the foot mat, and even if an external force such as vehicle inertial force is generated, the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand of the present invention can be prevented from rotating with respect to the foot mat mounting portion as a reference, and ultimately, a safer mounting can be achieved.

[0025] In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, since the fire extinguisher mat portion provides a technical configuration further including a protruding portion facing the fire extinguisher, the protruding portion facing the fire extinguisher can be sandwiched in the middle of the lower end surface of the vehicle fire extinguisher where it dents in, and the movement of the vehicle fire extinguisher can be more actively blocked.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0027] Hereinafter, with reference to the attached drawings, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail so that those having ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the present invention pertains can easily implement them. However, the present invention can be embodied in various different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0029] Figure 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the recess showing the state in which the foot mat is inserted into the foot mat mounting section, Figure 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the recess showing the state in which the bolts are fastened after the foot mat is inserted into the foot mat mounting section, and Figure 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the recess showing the state in which the part of the vehicle fire extinguisher that has been inserted into the middle is sandwiched in the fire extinguisher-facing protrusion of the fire extinguisher base.

[0030] A multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand 100 according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a stationary body 110, a fire extinguisher gripping section 120, and a foot mat mounting section 130, as shown in Figures 1 to 5. Each component will now be described with reference to Figures 1 to 5.

[0031] The stationary body 110 is a component that forms the main body of the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand 100 of the present invention. Such a stationary body 110 can be made of sheet metal or the like for stationary strength, and can have a shape that is bent in an arc shape so as to surround a part of the surrounding surface of the vehicle fire extinguisher 10, as shown in Figure 1.

[0032] The fire extinguisher grip portion 120 is a component for gripping the vehicle fire extinguisher 10. Such a fire extinguisher grip portion 120 can be provided on a part of the stationary body 110, as shown in Figure 1. For example, the fire extinguisher grip portion 120 may include a first arc strap 121, a second arc strap 122, and a connector 123, as shown in Figure 1. The first arc strap 121 may be provided on one side of the stationary body 110 and may surround a part of the vehicle fire extinguisher 10. The second arc strap 122 may be provided on the other side of the stationary body 110 and may surround the rest of the vehicle fire extinguisher 10. The connector 123 can detachably connect the first arc strap 121 and the second arc strap 122.

[0033] The foot mat mounting section 130 is a component for detachably attaching to the foot mat 20. Such a foot mat mounting section 130 can be provided on other parts of the stationary body 110, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.

[0034] Therefore, with the above-described components provided, the vehicle fire extinguisher 10, which is held by the stationary body 110 through the fire extinguisher gripping part 120, can be detachably attached to the foot mat 20 through the foot mat mounting part 130, thereby preventing the vehicle fire extinguisher 10 from moving around inside the vehicle while it is in operation, and in particular, preventing the vehicle fire extinguisher 10 from getting caught in the brake pedal, thus preventing any resulting safety accidents.

[0035] The foot mat mounting section 130 will be described in more detail below, with reference again to Figures 1 to 4.

[0036] The foot mat mounting section 130 may include a lower underlay section 131, an upper underlay section 132, and an elastic connecting section 133, as shown in Figures 1, 3, and 4. The lower underlay section 131 can support the lower surface of the foot mat 20. The upper underlay section 132 can support the upper surface of the foot mat 20. The elastic connecting section 133 can connect the front end of the lower underlay section 131 and the front end of the upper underlay section 132, and can apply an elastic force so that the space between the rear end of the lower underlay section 131 and the rear end of the upper underlay section 132 is narrowed. Therefore, the foot mat 20 can be detachably inserted between the lower underlay portion 131 and the upper underlay portion 132 such that the lower surface of the foot mat 20 is placed on the lower underlay portion 131 and the upper surface of the foot mat 20 is placed on the upper underlay portion 132. Furthermore, the foot mat mounting portion 130 can be firmly attached to the foot mat 20 by the elastic connecting portion 133 that connects the tip of the lower underlay portion 131 and the tip of the upper underlay portion 132, while the space between the rear end of the lower underlay portion 131 and the rear end of the upper underlay portion 132 is narrowed.

[0037] Furthermore, the foot mat mounting portion 130 may further include a plurality of anti-slip protrusions 134, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. Such anti-slip protrusions 134 can be provided on the surface of the lower underlay portion 131 facing the upper underlay portion 132, and can prevent the foot mat 20 from sliding on its underside. Therefore, the frictional force between the underside of the foot mat 20 and the lower underlay portion 131 can be increased through the anti-slip protrusions 134, and even if the inertial force generated when the vehicle is suddenly stopped or suddenly started acts on the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand 100 of the present invention, the foot mat 20 can prevent the foot mat mounting portion 130 from coming off.

[0038] Furthermore, the foot mat mounting portion 130 may further include an upward bending portion 135, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. Such an upward bending portion 135 extends from the rear end of the upper underlay portion 132 in a bent state, but can be bent in a direction that moves further away from the lower underlay portion 131 as it goes in the direction toward the rear end of the upper underlay portion 132. Therefore, as the foot mat 20 is inserted between the lower underlay portion 131 and the upper underlay portion 132, the user does not need to manually separate the lower underlay portion 131 and the upper underlay portion 132, and the edge of the foot mat 20 can be smoothly inserted into the space formed by the upward bending portion 135 between the upward bending portion 135 and the lower underlay portion 131.

[0039] Furthermore, the foot mat mounting portion 130 may further include a through hole 136 and a fastening hole 137, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. The through hole 136 can penetrate through to the upper base portion 132. The fastening hole 137 is for fastening a bolt B10 and can penetrate through to the lower base portion 131, or it can form a center like the through hole 136. Therefore, as shown in Figure 4, the bolt B10 can be fastened to the foot mat 20 inserted between the lower base portion 131 and the upper base portion 132 through the through hole 136 and the fastening hole 137, thereby firmly fixing the foot mat mounting portion 130 to the foot mat 20.

[0040] Consequently, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the through-hole 136 can have a larger diameter than the fastening hole 137 so that the head of the bolt B10 can pass through. Therefore, as the bolt B10 is sequentially fastened to the foot mat 20 and the fastening hole 137 with the head of the bolt B10 passing through the through-hole 136, the head of the bolt B10 can be tightly pressed against the upper surface of the foot mat 20, preventing the foot mat 20 from tearing even when external forces such as the inertial force of the vehicle are generated. Furthermore, the head of the bolt B10 can be positioned inward from the upper underlay portion 132, preventing the head of the bolt B10 from coming into contact with the vehicle fire extinguisher 10.

[0041] On the other hand, the aforementioned foot mat mounting portion 130 may include a first foot mat mounting portion 130A and a second foot mat mounting portion 130B, as shown in Figure 1. The first foot mat mounting portion 130A may be provided at one end of the stationary body 110, and the second foot mat mounting portion 130B may be provided at the other end of the stationary body 110. For reference, the first and second foot mat mounting portions 130A and 130B may include the same specific components of the aforementioned foot mat mounting portion 130, so a detailed explanation thereof is omitted. Thus, the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand 100 of the present invention can be attached to the foot mat 20 at two locations, preventing the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand 100 from rotating with respect to the foot mat mounting portion 130 even when external forces such as the inertial force of the vehicle are generated, and ultimately enabling safer attachment.

[0042] In addition, the multi-functional vehicle fire extinguisher stand 100 according to one embodiment of the present invention may further include a fire extinguisher base portion 140 that supports the lower end surface of the vehicle fire extinguisher 10, as shown in Figures 1 and 5. In particular, the fire extinguisher base portion 140 may further include a fire extinguisher-facing projection portion 141 that is relatively protruding and formed to support the vehicle fire extinguisher 10 by being sandwiched in the middle of the recessed lower end surface, as shown in Figure 5. Therefore, the fire extinguisher-facing projection portion 141 can be sandwiched in the middle of the recessed lower end surface of the vehicle fire extinguisher 10, thereby more actively blocking the movement of the vehicle fire extinguisher 10.

[0043] Although preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and many modifications and improvements by those skilled in the art that utilize the basic concepts of the present invention, as defined in the following claims, also fall within the scope of the present invention.
