The center console 10 is provided on the central protrusion 1A of the floor 1. Note that the driver's seat 2 and the passenger seat 3 may be reversed left and right.

[0013] The center console 10 includes a console front portion 11, an air conditioning duct 12, a refrigerator box duct 13, a brake harness 14, a rear console unit 20, and a console bracket 30. The center console 10 extends in the fore-and-aft direction, with its front portion covered by the console front portion 11 and its rear portion covered by the rear console unit 20. The air conditioning duct 12, the refrigerator box duct 13, and the brake harness 14 are arranged in the fore-and-aft direction along a central protrusion 1A of the floor 1 and are covered by the console front portion 11 and the rear console unit 20. The console bracket 30 covers, in particular, the side and top surfaces of the rear sides of the air conditioning duct 12 and the brake harness 14, and supports the rear console unit 20 on its top surface. This configuration can be seen in FIGS. 2 and 3 .

[0014] The rear console unit 20 has a cup holder 21, an armrest 22, a cooler box 23, a rear panel 24, side panels 25, and a support frame 26. The cup holder 21 and the cooler box 23 are arranged in a row in the front-to-rear direction from the front. The armrest 22 covers the top side of the cooler box 23 in an openable and closable manner. The rear panel 24 covers the rear side of the cooler box 23. A pair of side panels 25, 25 are attached to both the left and right sides of the cooler box 23 and extend forward from the cooler box 23. The support frame 26 is provided in front of the cooler box 23 so as to bridge between the pair of side panels 25, 25. This configuration can be seen in FIG. 2 .

[0015] The cup holder 21 is a plate-like member having a recessed storage section 21a for storing a container such as a plastic bottle. The cup holder 21 is detachably attached to the upper edge sides of the pair of side panels 25, 25 and the support frame 26.

[0016] The armrest 22 is a plate-like member that covers the opening of the cooler box 23, and its upper surface is covered with a cushioned member. The rear end of the armrest 22 is pivotally supported on the rear end of the opening of the cooler box via a left-right support shaft. This allows the opening of the cooler box 23 to be opened and closed by swinging the front end of the armrest 22 up and down. This configuration can be seen in Figure 3.

[0017] The cooler box 23 is formed in a box shape with an open top so that containers such as plastic bottles can be stored therein. The bottom surface of the cooler box 23 is formed with a pair of left and right recesses 23a and fixing holes 23b drilled in the bottom surface of the recesses 23a. A bottom plate 27 that covers the recesses 23a and fixing holes 23b is fitted into the bottom surface of the cooler box 23. This configuration can be seen in Figure 5. The top surface of the connection point between the front surface of the cooler box 23 and the cooler box duct 13 is covered by a cup holder 21, and the left and right sides are covered by side panels 25, 25.

[0018] An air outlet (not shown) is formed on the upper side of the rear panel 24. A vertical connecting duct 28 is provided on the rear panel 24 to connect the air outlet to the rear end of the air conditioning duct 12. This configuration can be seen in FIG. 2.

[0019] The air conditioning duct 12 and the cold storage box duct 13 extend in the front-to-rear direction along the center console 10. The front ends of the air conditioning duct 12 and the cold storage box duct 13 are connected to the engine compartment, and cool air cooled by a condenser arranged in the engine compartment (not shown) is supplied to them. The rear end of the air conditioning duct 12 is connected to a connecting duct 28. This allows the air conditioning duct 12 to supply cool air from an air outlet in the rear panel 24 toward rear seats (not shown) behind the driver's seat 2 and passenger seat 3. The rear end of the cold storage box duct 13 is connected to the front of the cold storage box 23. This allows the cold storage box duct 13 to supply cool air into the cold storage box 23 in the rear console unit 20.

[0020] The rear portion of the air conditioning duct 12 is suspended from the console bracket 30 via a duct support piece 12A protruding from the top surface. As a result, in the cross section along the lowermost portion of a guide portion 38c (described later) in the fore-and-aft direction, the top surface of the air conditioning duct 12 is located higher than the right rear wheel brake harness 14R, which is located at the highest position. This configuration can be seen in Figure 5.

[0021] The brake harness 14 extends in the front-rear direction along the center console 10. The front end of the brake harness 14 is connected to a control unit (not shown). A midpoint of the brake harness 14 in the front-rear direction is supported on the console bracket 30 side. The brake harness 14 is divided into a right rear wheel brake harness 14R and a left rear wheel brake harness 14L, which extend rearward of the console bracket 30 toward the right rear wheel. The rear end of the brake harness 14 is connected to an actuator (not shown) for applying electric brakes to the rear wheels. The manner in which the brake harness 14 is attached to the console bracket 30 will be described later.

[0022] Next, a specific configuration of the console bracket will be described with reference to Figures 2 to 7. Figures 6(A) and 6(B) are a perspective view and a bottom view of the console bracket, and Figure 7 is an exploded perspective view of the console bracket.

[0023] The console bracket 30 includes a first bracket 31 and a second bracket 32 ​​arranged side by side in front of the first bracket 31. The first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32 ​​are each formed in an inverted U shape, and their lower ends are fixed with bolts to the central protrusion 1A of the floor 1. In addition, an air conditioning duct 12 is arranged in the center of the space formed in the front-to-rear direction between the first bracket 31, the second bracket 32, and the central protrusion 1A, and a brake harness 14 is arranged on one of the left and right sides of the space. This configuration can be seen in FIGS. 2 to 5.

[0024] The first bracket 31 has a pair of left and right first leg portions 31a, 31a extending in the vertical direction, and a first upper surface portion 31b extending in the horizontal direction so as to connect the upper ends of the pair of left and right first leg portions 31a, 31a.

[0025] The pair of first legs 31a are formed into a hat shape by slightly inclining outward to the left and right as they extend downward. The pair of first legs 31a, 31a have first fixing portions 33, 33 for fixing to the floor 1 by bending the lower ends thereof outward in the left and right direction. A plurality of harness fixing holes 34 for attaching and fixing the brake harness 14 are provided vertically aligned on the inner left and right sides of one of the left and right sides of the first legs 31a. In the example shown in the figure, four harness fixing holes 34 are provided vertically aligned on the left first leg 31a.

[0026] The harness fixing holes 34 arranged vertically are respectively attached and fixed to the upper and lower harnesses 14R for the right rear wheel brake and 14L for the left rear wheel brake via harness fixing devices 15. This configuration can be seen in Figures 3 to 5.

[0027] A pair of left and right fixing holes 40L, 40R are formed in the rear side of the first upper surface portion 31b, penetrating vertically. The bottom side of the cooler box 23 is fixed to the upper surface of the first upper surface portion 31b of the first bracket 31 with bolts via the fixing holes 40L, 40R. Specifically, the bottom surface of the cooler box 23 can be fixed to the upper surface of the first bracket 31 by fastening fixing bolts 50 inserted through the fixing holes 23b of the cooler box 23 and the fixing holes 40L, 40R of the first upper surface portion 31b to fixing nuts disposed on the underside of the first upper surface portion 31b. At this time, the heads of the fixing bolts 50 are received in the recesses 23a of the cooler box 23 and are covered by the bottom plate 27. This configuration can be seen in FIG. 5 .

[0028] The second bracket 32 ​​has a pair of left and right second leg portions 32a, 32a extending in the vertical direction, and a second upper surface portion 32b extending in the horizontal direction so as to connect the upper ends of the pair of left and right second leg portions 32a, 32a.

[0029] The lower sides of the pair of second leg portions 32a, 32a are curved forward. The lower ends of the pair of second leg portions 32a, 32a are bent inward in the left-right direction to form second fixing portions 35, 35 for fixing to the floor 1. The lower sides of the pair of second leg portions 32a, 32a are formed with harness support pieces 39 that protrude forward. The harness support pieces 39 are formed with harness fixing holes 39a for supporting the brake harness 14.

[0030] The second upper surface portion 32b is formed with a duct support piece 36, a locking piece 37, and a receiving piece 38. The duct support piece 36 is disposed at the front edge of the second upper surface portion 32b. The locking piece 37 and the receiving piece 38 are disposed at the rear edge of the second upper surface portion 32b.

[0031] The duct support piece 36 has an extension portion 36a extending downward and forward from the front edge of the second upper surface portion 32b, an abutment portion 36b provided at the front end of the extension portion 36a and abutting against the duct support piece 12A, and a lateral duct support hole 36c formed in the abutment portion 36b. The extension portion 36a is located to the right of the lateral center of the second upper surface portion 32b, and its extension end is bent leftward. By attaching and fastening the abutment portion 36b of the duct support piece 36 to the duct support piece 12A abutting against the abutment portion 36b, the rear portion of the air conditioner duct 12 can be suspended and supported by the console bracket 30. This configuration can be seen in Figures 4 and 6.

[0032] The locking piece 37 includes a first locking piece 37A and a second locking piece 37B extending rearward from the rear edge of the second upper surface portion 32b. The first locking piece 37A is located at the center of the second upper surface portion 32b in the left-right direction and is bent upward in a crank-like shape so as to abut against the upper surface of the first upper surface portion 31b of the first bracket 31. The second locking piece 37B is located on the right side of the second upper surface portion 32b in the left-right direction and is bent downward in a crank-like shape so as to abut against the lower surface of the first upper surface portion 31b of the first bracket 31. In other words, the first locking piece 37A and the second locking piece 37B are arranged side by side on the left and right sides and are arranged to sandwich the first upper surface portion 31b of the first bracket 31 from above and below. At this time, the second locking piece 37B and the first upper surface portion 31b are joined by spot welding. This allows the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, which is arranged side by side in front of the first bracket 31, to be integrally connected. Note that the first locking piece 37A and the first upper surface portion 31b are not spot welded together.

[0033] The receiving piece 38 has an extension portion 38a, a receiving portion 38b, and a guide portion 38c. The extension portion 38a extends rearward from the left side of the rear edge of the second upper surface portion 32b in the left-right direction. The receiving portion 38b is formed on the rear end of the extension portion 38a and is a dish-shaped portion recessed downward, with a portion of the circumference open and connected to the guide portion 38c. The receiving portion 38b is positioned to overlap with a fixing hole 40L on one of the left and right sides of the first upper surface portion 31b in a plan view. In the illustrated example, the receiving portion 38b overlaps with the left fixing hole 40L. In this case, the receiving portion 38b is positioned to cover the entire fixing hole 40L in a plan view. For this configuration, please refer to Figures 5, 6(A), and 6(B). The guide portion 38c is a groove portion that is recessed downward in the center and extends inward in the left-right direction from the receiving portion 38b. In the illustrated example, the guide portion 38c extends to the right, continuing from the right side of the receiving portion 38b. The base end of the guide portion 38c is connected to the dish-shaped receiving portion 38b. The free end of the guide portion 38c extends to a predetermined retracted position where it overlaps with the upper surface of the air-conditioning duct 12 in a rear or plan view. This configuration can be seen in FIG. 5.

[0034] The receiving piece 38 abuts against the underside of the first upper surface portion 31b at some position and is joined by spot welding. The receiving piece 38 may be joined to the first upper surface portion 31b by providing a protrusion extending in the front-rear direction on the extension portion 38a, or by joining a protrusion provided on the free end of the guide portion 38c to the first upper surface portion 31b. This configuration can be seen in FIG. 7.

[0035] (Operation and Effect) With the console bracket 30 described above, when liquid spills into the cooler box 23, the liquid leaking from the fixing hole 40L of the cooler box 23 can be received by the receiving portion 38b and guided inward in the left-right direction by the guide portion 38c. This reliably prevents liquid spilled into the cooler box 23 from leaking through the fixing hole 23b of the cooler box 23 and the fixing hole 40L of the first bracket 31 onto the brake harness 14, which is an electrical component.

[0036] Furthermore, the liquid guided to the predetermined retracted position by the guide portion 38c is guided to fall onto the upper surface of the air conditioning duct 12. Liquid that leaks onto the upper surface of the air conditioning duct 12 flows down along the side of the air conditioning duct 12. The right-side fixing hole 40R is positioned to overlap the upper surface of the air conditioning duct 12 in a plan view. Therefore, liquid that falls from the fixing hole 40R of the first bracket 31 leaks directly onto the upper surface of the air conditioning duct 12. As described above, all liquid that spills into the cooler box 23 and leaks from the fixing holes 23b, 40L, and 40R flows down the air conditioning duct 12 and falls onto the floor 1. This more reliably prevents liquid that falls forcefully from the cooler box 23 from splashing on the floor 1 and coming into contact with electrical components such as the brake harness 14.

[0037] The console bracket 30 described above is configured by arranging the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, which are separate components, in a front-to-rear arrangement. This allows each component to have a simple shape, thereby reducing manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the installation of the console bracket 30 to the floor 1 is also simplified. Furthermore, by dividing the console bracket 30 into the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32, brackets formed from components with different thicknesses can be used for the front and rear components. In other words, by making the thickness of the first bracket 31, to which the refrigerated box is attached, thicker than the thickness of the second bracket 32, the rigidity of the entire console bracket 30 can be ensured while reducing manufacturing costs. Specifically, in this embodiment, the thickness of the first bracket 31 is 1.6 cm, while the thickness of the second bracket 32 ​​is 1.2 cm.

[0038] Furthermore, the console bracket 30 has a configuration in which the lower portions of the second legs 32a, 32a of the second bracket 32 ​​are curved forward, thereby allowing for a wider front-to-rear distance between the first leg 31a and the second leg 32a. This further stabilizes the posture of the console bracket 30 fixed to the floor 1. Furthermore, the first fixing portions 33, 33 of the first bracket 31 and the second fixing portions 35, 35 of the second bracket 32 ​​of the console bracket 30 are offset in the left-right direction in a bottom view. This further stabilizes the posture of the console bracket 30 fixed to the floor 1.
