[Figure 3] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the rear side (front side) of the storage device. [Figure 4] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the front side (rear side) of the storage device. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0010] In the drawing, reference numeral 1 denotes a vehicle seat, and this seat 1 is, for example, the passenger seat of an automobile. A storage device (vehicle storage cover) 2 is attached to the seat 1 in a detachable manner after the fact, and covers at least a portion of the seat 1 and is capable of storing and hanging an item W.

[0011] The seat 1 comprises a seat portion (seat cushion) 6 that supports the buttocks of the seated person, a backrest portion (seat back) 7 that supports the back of the seated person, and a headrest portion 8 that supports the head of the seated person.

[0012] The storage device 2 is made of, for example, flexible fabric, and includes a sheet-like cover body 11 that covers at least a part of the seat 1, i.e., for example, the rear surface (back face), a box-like storage body (foot storage section) 12 that is integrally connected to the lower end of the cover body 11 and is removably inserted into the space 20 below the seat 1 to store items W, and a string-like attachment body 13 that is provided at the upper end of the cover body 11 and attached to the support 9 of the headrest section 8 of the seat 1.

[0013] The seat 1 is supported so that its position can be adjusted in the fore-and-aft direction by a pair of left and right guide rails (not shown) provided on the floor surface 19 of the vehicle floor, and the space 20 below the seat 1 is a space of a predetermined dimension that is located between the underside 6a of the seat portion 6 and the floor surface 19 and is open in the fore-and-aft direction between the left and right guide rails.

[0014] The storage device 2 is provided with a plurality (e.g., two) pocket bodies (secret storage sections) 21, 22 on the front (back) side of the cover body 11, which is the side facing the rear surface of the seat 1, for storing items W, and a plurality (e.g., three) hook bodies 26, 27, 28 on the rear (front) side of the cover body 11, which is the side opposite the side facing the rear surface of the seat 1, for hanging items W.

[0015] The cover body 11 is a long, narrow rectangular sheet with its longitudinal direction extending in the vertical direction, and is capable of covering the rear surface of the backrest 7 and the rear surface of the seat 6. Both ends of an attachment body 13 such as an attachment belt are attached to the upper end of the cover body 11. The lower end of the cover body 11 is integrally connected to the upper surface portion 37 of the storage body 12, which can be inserted into the lower space 20 from the rear side, with the same width.

[0016] The storage body 12 has a box-shaped storage section 31 that is open at the rear and in which items W can be stored and taken out, a rear opening 32 that is an opening formed at the rear of the storage section 31 and is a rectangular opening for taking items W into and out of the storage section 31, and a sheet-like lid section 33 that can open and close the rear opening 32.

[0017] The storage section 31 is, for example, a box-like shape with an open rear and having a front portion 36, an upper portion 37, a lower portion 38, a left portion 39, and a right portion 40, and the internal space of this box-shaped storage section 31 is a storage space 35 capable of storing an item W. The lid portion 33 is connected to the rear end of the lower portion 38 of the storage section 31 so as to be rotatable in the vertical direction. In other words, the lid portion 33 can be folded along a fold line 34 at the rear end of the lower portion 38, which is placed on the floor surface 19, which is a flat placing surface.

[0018] The lid portion 33 is then rotated downward relative to the underside portion 38 of the storage portion 31, placing it on the floor surface 19 and assuming a horizontal open state, thereby opening the rear opening 32 of the storage portion 31 toward the rear, and is rotated upward relative to the underside portion 38 of the storage portion 31, moving away from the floor surface 19 and assuming a vertical closed state, thereby closing the rear opening 32 of the storage portion 31.

[0019] The closed state of the lid 33 is maintained by a hook-and-loop fastener 41, which serves as a maintaining means. That is, the storage device 2 is equipped with a hook-and-loop fastener 41, which is a planar engaging means that maintains the lid 33 of the storage body 12 in a closed state. The hook-and-loop fastener 41 has a one-side engaging member 42 and a other-side engaging member 43 that detachably engages with the one-side engaging member 42. The one-side engaging member 42 is attached to the tip side of the lid 33 of the storage body 12, and the other-side engaging member 43 is attached to the lower end side of the surface of the cover body 11.

[0020] The pocket body 21 has openings 46 on both left and right end surfaces for inserting and removing the article W into and from the semi-cylindrical pocket body 21. The pocket body 22 also has an opening 47 on its top surface for inserting and removing the article W into and from the box-shaped pocket body 22.

[0021] The hook 26 is, for example, a hanger tape loop made of a short belt-like member. The hooks 27, 28 are, for example, webbing tapes made of long belt-like members. Each of the hooks 27, 28 has a plurality of arc-shaped hook portions 48 aligned in the left-right direction.

[0022] Next, the operation of the storage device 2 will be described.

[0023] For example, when attaching and using storage device 2 to seat 1, which is the passenger seat of a standard automobile, the user attaches mounting body 13 by hooking it onto support pillar 9 of headrest 8 so that cover body 11 covers the rear side of seat 1, and then inserts storage body 12 from the rear into space 20 below bottom portion 6 of seat 1 so that underside 38 of storage section 31 is placed in contact with floor surface 19, placing it on floor surface 19. In this case, for example, front portion 36 of storage section 31 is located forward of the center of seat surface 6 in the fore-and-aft direction. Furthermore, pocket bodies 21, 22 are located between cover body 11 and the rear surface of backrest portion 7 of seat 1, in contact with the rear surface of the backrest portion 7.

[0024] Thereafter, the user stores or hangs various items W on the attached storage device 2. To give specific examples, the item W stored in storage body 12 is, for example, a vehicle inspection certificate or the vehicle's instruction manual, the item W stored in pocket body 21 is, for example, a folding umbrella, and the item W stored in pocket body 22 is, for example, a box of tissues or a box of masks. In addition, the item W hung on hook body 26 is, for example, a hanger, and the item W hung on hook bodies 27, 28 is, for example, a carabiner (a carabiner with a smartphone, keys, helmet, hat, etc. attached).

[0025] Furthermore, with this storage device 2, not only can it be easily attached to a seat 1 such as the passenger seat and the rear surface (back) of the seat 1 be covered and protected with the cover body 11, but the storage body 12 inserted into the space 20 below the seat 1 can properly store and protect items W, thereby making effective use of the space 20 below the seat 1. In particular, if items that are used less frequently, such as a vehicle inspection certificate and instruction manual, are stored in the storage body 12 below the seat 1, the storage space on the dashboard in front of the seat 1 becomes free and can be used to store more frequently used items, which is extremely convenient for the user.

[0026] In addition, in the space 20 below the seat 1, by storing relatively heavy items W such as instruction manuals in the storage body 12 placed on the floor surface (storage section) 19, the storage body 12 can be positioned relative to the floor surface 19, thereby appropriately preventing the cover body 11 from flapping when the vehicle is running, for example.

[0027] Furthermore, the storage body 12 has a storage section 31 in which the item W can be stored and taken out, a rear opening 32 formed in the storage section 31 for taking the item W in and out, and a lid section 33 that can open and close the rear opening 32, so that the item W can be stored easily and appropriately.

[0028] Furthermore, the lid portion 33 of the storage body 12 is provided at the rear end of the underside portion 38 of the storage section 31 so that it can be rotated in the vertical direction. Therefore, when storing an item W in the storage section 31, for example, the item W can be temporarily placed on the open lid portion 33 placed on the floor surface 19, making it even easier to store the item W.

[0029] In addition, the cover body in a storage device with a cover function is not limited to one that covers only the rear surface of the completed seat, but may, for example, cover part or the whole of the backrest, part or the whole of the seat, etc., or may be attached to a seat made of a urethane pad as a cover during seat manufacturing and cover it.

[0030] Furthermore, the storage body is not limited to being connected to the cover body using the same sheet-like material as the cover body, but may be configured, for example, so that the storage body is detachably attached to the cover body, or so that the materials (fabric, etc.) of the two are different from each other, or, for example, so that the storage body can be inserted into the space below the seat from the front side.

[0031] Furthermore, the number of pockets and hooks is not limited to the example shown in the drawings. For example, there may be a plurality of hanger tape loops, and there may be one or three or more webbing tapes. [Explanation of symbols]
