Description

Vehicle tool bag and storage structure

[0001] The present invention relates to an in-vehicle tool bag and a storage structure for the in-vehicle tool bag in a vehicle.

[0002] A conventional storage structure for storing onboard tools in a vehicle is known, in which the jack is placed between a pair of opposing surfaces provided in the storage section of the onboard jack, and the onboard tool holder, which consists of an attachment section for detachably attaching a jack rod and a wheel nut wrench and a plate-shaped section formed integrally with the attachment section, is sandwiched and fixed between one end of the jack in the extension / retraction direction and the opposing surfaces (Patent Document 1).

[0003] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 11-321474

[0004] However, the above-mentioned conventional storage structure only takes into consideration the jack rod and wheel nut wrench as on-board tools, and there is room for further consideration regarding storage structures for on-board tools other than these.

[0005] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an on-board tool bag capable of storing various on-board tools and a storage structure thereof.

[0006] The present invention solves the above problem by comprising a bag-shaped bag body having an opening for storing vehicle tools, a flap for opening and closing the opening, and a band for binding the bag along the short side of the bag with the opening closed by the flap, wherein the bag body includes a first bag body having a narrow width in the short side of the bag and a second bag body having a wider width in the short side than the first bag body, and the band includes a first band provided on the first bag body and a second band provided on the second bag body and longer than the first band.

[0007] According to the present invention, various on-board tools can be stored.

[0009] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following FIGS. 1 to 8, arrow Fr indicates the front of the vehicle, arrow Rr indicates the rear of the vehicle, arrow LH indicates the left side of the vehicle, arrow RH indicates the right side of the vehicle, and arrow Up indicates the top of the vehicle. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a storage structure for an in-vehicle tool bag according to the present invention, illustrating a luggage compartment 31 in the rear of a vehicle 3. The vehicle 3 of this embodiment includes all types of vehicles, such as sedans, coupes, hatchbacks, station wagons, minivans, one-box types, and SUVs, and the storage structure for an in-vehicle tool bag according to the present invention can be applied to these vehicles 3. The vehicle 3 shown in FIG. 1 is a station wagon or SUV, and is equipped with a luggage compartment 31 (also referred to as a trunk or luggage room) in the rear of the vehicle.

[0010] 1, a trunk 31 is formed by welding steel M-shaped brackets 35 having an M-shaped cross section and including multiple legs to both left and right ends of the upper surface of a steel rear floor panel 32 that constitutes the vehicle body, and a plastic luggage compartment 33 that constitutes the floor of the trunk 31 is supported on the top surfaces of the M-shaped brackets 35. The M-shaped bracket 35 has an M-shaped cross section along the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle 3, and includes two top surfaces and four legs as shown in FIG. 5, and its bottom is welded to the rear floor panel. As will be described in detail later, one end of the in-vehicle tool bag 1 of this embodiment is inserted between the legs of the M-shaped bracket 35 for storage, as shown in FIG. 6.

[0011] FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a jack stored in the luggage compartment of FIG. 1 . The jack 2 according to this embodiment is mounted on a jack fixing bracket 34 welded to the rear floor panel 32 for storage. The jack 2 includes a main body 21 including a pantograph and a C-shaped jack head 22 that supports the lower part of the sill of the vehicle 3. The jack fixing bracket 34 is made of a steel plate with a C-shaped cross section and an open top. The jack 2 is inserted between a pair of opposing wall surfaces with the pantograph closed, and then the pantograph knob is turned to open the pantograph slightly, thereby securing the jack to the jack fixing bracket 34. The jack 2 according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is secured to the jack fixing bracket 34 with the jack head 22 positioned toward the front of the vehicle.

[0012] As shown in FIG. 5, when the jack 2 is fixed to the jack fixing bracket 34, the jack head 22, which has a C-shaped cross section, has a space 23. As will be described in detail later, as shown in FIG. 6, one end of the in-vehicle tool bag 1 of this embodiment is inserted into this space 23 for storage.

[0013] Next, the on-board tool bag 1 of this embodiment will be described. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the on-board tool bag 1 of this embodiment, Fig. 3A is a front view of the on-board tool bag 1 of Fig. 2, and Fig. 3B is a rear view of the on-board tool bag 1 of Fig. 2. Fig. 4A is a front perspective view showing the on-board tool bag 1 of Fig. 2 with the on-board tools T1 to T7 stored therein and the flap 13 open, Fig. 4B is a front perspective view showing the on-board tool bag 1 of Fig. 4A with the flap 13 closed, and Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing the on-board tool bag 1 of Fig. 4B inserted and secured in the space 23 of the jack head 22 of the jack 2 of Fig. 5.

[0014] The bag 1 of this embodiment is made of a flexible material such as vinyl leather, and is stored in the trunk 31 with the onboard tools T1 to T7 stored therein. The onboard tools stored in the bag 1 of this embodiment are not particularly limited, and various tools can be stored therein. In the following description, the embodiment of the present invention will be described using the wheel nut wrench T1, first jack rod T2, second jack rod T3, tire stopper T4, wrench T5, screwdriver T6, and tire gauge T7 as examples, but the present invention is not limited to these. Of the onboard tools of this embodiment, the wheel nut wrench T1, first jack rod T2, and second jack rod T3 are relatively long tools, while the tire stopper T4, wrench T5, screwdriver T6, and tire gauge T7 are relatively short tools.

[0015] 2, the bag 1 of this embodiment includes a bag-shaped bag body 10 having an opening 103 extending in the longitudinal direction of the bag 1, a flap 13 extending from a first member 101 of the bag body 10 to open and close the opening 103, and a band 14 that binds the bag along the lateral direction of the bag 1 with the opening 103 closed by the flap 13. In FIG. 2, arrows indicate the directions when viewed from the front and the back.

[0016] The bag-shaped bag body 10 is formed by facing a first member 101 on the rear side of the bag 1 and a second member 102 on the front side of the bag 1 in Fig. 2, and joining the side edges and bottom edge by fusion or the like to form a bag-shaped bag body 10 having an opening 103 at the top edge. The bag body 10 of this embodiment includes a first bag body 11 that is narrow in the lateral direction of the bag 1 (indicated by the arrow in Fig. 2) and a second bag body 12 that is wider in the lateral direction than the first bag body 11. For this reason, the bag body 10 of this embodiment is not rectangular, but has a shape formed by arranging two rectangles with different lateral lengths side by side. This is intended to store the relatively long tools, namely the wheel nut wrench T1, the first jack rod T2, and the second jack rod T3, among the multiple on-board tools T1 to T7, across both the first bag body 11 and the second bag body 12, and to store the other relatively short tools, namely the tire stopper T4, the wrench T5, the screwdriver T6, and the tire gauge T7, in the wider second bag body 12.

[0017] The flap 13 of this embodiment extends to the first member 101 of the bag body 10 and opens and closes the opening 103 by folding it over the edge of the opening 103. The flap 13 of this embodiment is formed integrally with the fabric of the first member 101, but the flap 13 and the first member 101 may be formed from separate members and joined together by welding, sewing, or the like.

[0018] The band 14 of this embodiment includes a first band 141 provided on the first bag body 11 and a second band 142 provided on the second bag body 12 and having a length 141 longer than the first band. In this embodiment, two first bands 141, 141 are provided on the first bag body 11, but one or three or more first bands 141 may be provided depending on the longitudinal dimension of the first bag body 11.

[0019] 2 to 3B, one end (the lower end shown in the figures) of the first band 141 of this embodiment is fixed to the first member 101 of the bag body 10, a latched portion 15 consisting of one of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener is provided on the front surface of the one end, and a latching portion 16 consisting of the other of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener is provided on the back surface of the other end (the upper end shown in the figures). Then, with the flap 13 folded, the first band 141 is rotated once starting from the fixed one end, and one of the hook-and-loop fasteners provided on the back surface of the other end is latched with the other of the hook-and-loop fasteners provided on the front surface of the fixed one end, thereby fastening the first band 141.

[0020] A hook-and-loop fastener is a fastener member that can be bonded by engaging a large number of hooks and loops arranged on a surface. When the hooks and loops are pressed together, they are locked together, and when the hooks and loops are pulled apart, the locked state is released. Known commercially available products include Velcro (registered trademark) and Magic Tape (registered trademark).

[0021] 2 to 3B, the second band 142 of this embodiment has one end (the lower end shown in the figures) fixed to the second member 102 of the bag body 10, a latched portion 15 consisting of one of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener provided on the front surface of the one end, and a latching portion 16 consisting of the other of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener provided on the back surface of the other end (the upper end shown in the figures). With the flap 13 folded, the second band 142 is rotated once starting from the fixed one end, and is wound up together with the jack 2, as will be described in detail later, and one of the hook-and-loop fasteners provided on the back surface of the other end is latched with the other hook-and-loop fastener provided on the front surface of the fixed one end, thereby fixing the second band 142.

[0022] In addition to the first band 141 and the second band 142 described above, the band 14 of this embodiment further includes a third band 143 provided on the second bag body 12 at a position closer to the first bag body 11 than the second band 142, and a fourth band 144 provided on the second bag body 12 at a position closer to the first bag body 11 than the third band 143 and shorter than the third band 143. In other words, the band 14 of this embodiment includes a total of five bands, namely, the first bands 141, 141, the fourth band 144, the third band 143, and the second band 142, in this order from the right in front view in Figures 2 and 3A.

[0023] Of these, the first band 141 is provided on the first bag body 11 and mainly binds the first bag body 11, and the second band 142 is provided on the second bag body 12 and mainly binds the second bag body 12 and the jack 2 together. In contrast, the third band 143 and the fourth band 144 are provided on the second bag body 12 and mainly bind the second bag body 12, but also function to secure short tools among the on-board tools T1 to T7 stored in the bag body 10 close to the second bag body 12 and to separate the on-board tools T1 to T7 into long tools and short tools.

[0024] 2 to 3B, each of the third band 143 and the fourth band 144 has one end (the lower end shown in the figures) fixed to the first member 101 of the bag body 10, a locking portion 15 consisting of one of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener provided on the front surface of the one end, and a locking portion 16 consisting of the other of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener provided on the back surface of the other end (the upper end shown in the figures). With the flap 13 folded, the first band 141 is rotated once starting from the fixed one end, and one of the hook-and-loop fasteners provided on the back surface of the other end is locked to the other of the hook-and-loop fasteners provided on the front surface of the fixed one end, thereby fastening the third band 143 and the fourth band 144.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 3A , the lengths of the five bands, first band 141 to fourth band 144, are the same, with second band 142 being the longest, third band 143 being the next longest, and first band 141 and fourth band 144 being the shortest. Since first band 141 only binds the narrow first bag body 11, it only needs to be long enough to rotate it once. Furthermore, since fourth band 144 only moves the relatively short on-board tools toward the second bag body 12, it only needs to be long enough to rotate it once. In contrast, third band 143 must bind the wider second bag body 12, so it needs to be longer than first band 141 and fourth band 144. Furthermore, since second band 142 must bind both the second bag body 12 and the jack 2, it needs to be long enough to rotate the second bag body 12 once, plus the jack 2.

[0026] As shown in Fig. 3A , the hook-and-loop fastener is attached to the fastening portion 16 of the first band 141 of this embodiment without leaving any margin at the other end (the upper end in Fig. 3A ) which is a free end. Similarly, as shown in Fig. 3A , the hook-and-loop fastener is attached to the fastening portion 16 of the third band 143 and the fourth band 144 of this embodiment without leaving any margin at the other end (the upper end in Fig. 3A ) which is a free end. In contrast, as shown in Fig. 3A , the hook-and-loop fastener is attached to the fastening portion 16 of the second band 142 of this embodiment with a margin of a predetermined distance L1 from the other end (the upper end in Fig. 3A ) which is a free end.

[0027] This is because the hook-and-loop fasteners of the second band 142 must be released when tying the bag 1 to the jack 2 or when removing the bag 1 that has been tied to the jack 2. For this reason, a space is formed at the tip of the second band 142 to be used as a grip for this purpose. In contrast, the hook-and-loop fasteners of the first band 141, the third band 143, and the fourth band 144 do not need to be released when the bands are stored in the jack 2, and conversely, if there is a space at the tip, it would be difficult to insert the bands into the space 23 of the jack head 22 or they would come off.

[0028] In addition, in the first band 141, the third band 143 and the fourth band 144, the locking portion 16 is not limited to attaching a hook-and-loop fastener without leaving any margin at the end of the other end, but may also be located at a distance L2 shorter than the specified distance L1 from the end of the other end.

[0029] In addition to or instead of the above-described first band 141 to fourth band 144, a fifth band may be provided on the bag body 10 at a position corresponding to the space 23 when the first bag body 11 is inserted into the space 23, to bind the first bag body 11 along the short side of the first bag body 11. For example, the fifth band may be provided between the first band 141 and the fourth band 144, which are second from the right in FIG. 3A . Alternatively, the position of the first band 141 or the fourth band 144, which are second from the right in FIG. 3A , may be adjusted to a position corresponding to the space 23 of the jack head 22, and this may be used as the fifth band.

[0030] Next, a procedure for storing the bag 1 of this embodiment will be described. First, it is assumed that the jack 2 of this embodiment is mounted in such a manner that the jack head 22 is located in the front of the vehicle and the main body 21 is located in the rear of the vehicle relative to the jack head 22, as shown in Figures 1 and 5 .

[0031] 4A , among the multiple on-board tools T1 to T7, the relatively short tools, namely the tire stopper T4, the wrench T5, the screwdriver T6, and the tire gauge T7, are stored in the wide second bag body 12, and the relatively long tools, namely the wheel nut wrench T1, the first jack rod T2, and the second jack rod T3, are stored across both the first bag body 11 and the second bag body 12. In this state, the flap 13 is folded, and the two first bands 141, 141 are rotated once toward the front of FIG. 4A to fasten the hook-and-loop fasteners, thereby binding the first bag body 11.

[0032] At the same time, the fourth band 144 is rotated one turn toward the front in FIG. 4A to engage and fasten the hook-and-loop fastener. When tightening the fourth band 144, relatively short vehicle tools (tire stopper T4, wrench T5, screwdriver T6, and tire gauge T7) are moved toward the third band 143. In this state, the third band 143 is rotated one turn toward the front in FIG. 4A to engage the hook-and-loop fastener and fasten the second bag body 12. As a result, as shown in FIG. 4B , the bag 1 is formed in which the first bag body 11 and the second bag body 12 are fastened together by the first bands 141, 141, the third band 143, and the fourth band 144, excluding the second band 142. Note that the hook-and-loop fasteners of the second band 142 may be temporarily fastened together.

[0033] Next, as shown in FIG. 6 , the first bag body 11 of the bag 1, which contains the multiple on-board tools T1 to T7, is inserted between the space 23 of the jack head 22 of the jack 2, which is fixed to the jack fixing bracket 34 of the trunk 31, and the legs of the M-shaped bracket 35. At this time, the bag 1 is positioned with the bag body 10 on the upper side and the flap 13 on the lower side. Once the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22 and the second bag body 12 is positioned by abutting against the jack head 22, the second band 142 is turned counterclockwise as shown in FIG. 6 , passing from the top of the bag 1 to the back, passing under the jack 2, and returning it to the front, thereby binding the bag 1 and the jack 2 together. The bag can be stored in the trunk 31 through the above steps.

[0034] FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of the storage structure for an in-vehicle tool bag according to the present invention. The structure of the bag 1 may be modified depending on the storage orientation of the jack 2. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the jack 2 is mounted with the jack head 22 positioned rearward of the vehicle and the body 21 positioned forward of the jack head 22, as shown in the figure. This is an example in which the orientation of the jack 2 is reversed in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle compared to the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 and 5. For this configuration, the bag 1 is oriented with the bag body 10 positioned on the upper side and the flap 13 positioned on the lower side, and the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted between the space 23 of the jack head 22 and the legs of the M-shaped bracket 35.

[0035] Here, the bag 1 and the jack 2 are tied together using the second band 142. However, since the worker is at the rear of the vehicle on the left side of Figure 7, it is preferable from the viewpoint of workability to turn the second band 142 clockwise as shown in Figure 7, turning it from the top of the bag 1 toward the back, passing it under the jack 2 and returning it to the front, thereby tying the bag 1 and the jack 2 together.

[0036] FIG. 8 is a front view of another embodiment of the tool bag according to the present invention. The same components as those in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3A are designated by the same reference numerals, and their descriptions are incorporated herein by reference. The only difference from the bag 1 shown in FIG. 3A is the attachment direction of the second band 142. That is, as shown in FIG. 8, the second band 142 of this embodiment has one end (the upper end shown in FIG. 8) fixed to the second member 102 of the bag body 10. The front surface of the one end is provided with a latching portion 15, which is made up of one of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener. The back surface of the other end (the lower end shown in FIG. 8) is provided with a latching portion 16, which is made up of the other of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener. The second band 142 is fixed so as to extend in the direction opposite (downward in FIG. 8) to the extension direction of the flap 13 (upward in FIG. 8). By reversing the fixing direction of the second band 142, the bag 1 can be easily stored with respect to the jack 2 fixed to the trunk 31, as shown in FIG. 7.

[0037] As described above, the bag 1 of this embodiment is a bag 1 for storing vehicle tools T1 to T7, and comprises a bag-shaped bag body 10 having an opening 103 extending in the longitudinal direction of the bag 1, a flap 13 extending from a first member 101 of the bag body 10 and opening and closing the opening 103, and a band 14 that binds the bag along the lateral direction of the bag 1 with the opening 103 closed by the flap 13, the bag body 10 including a first bag body 11 that is narrow in the lateral direction of the bag 1 and a second bag body 12 that is wider in the lateral direction than the first bag body 11, and the band 14 including a first band 141 provided on the first bag body 11 and a second band 142 provided on the second bag body 12 and longer in length than the first band 141.

[0038] As a result, among the multiple on-board tools T1 to T7, the wheel nut wrench T1, the first jack rod T2, and the second jack rod T3, which are relatively long tools, can be stored across both the first bag body 11 and the second bag body 12, while the other relatively short tools, such as the tire stopper T4, the wrench T5, the screwdriver T6, and the tire gauge T7, can be stored in the wider second bag body 12, thereby efficiently using the storage space inside the bag 1 without leaving any gaps. Also, since the first bag body 11 is formed narrow, it can be inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22, and since the second bag body 12 is formed wide, it is positioned when the first bag body 11 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22, and therefore the storage position of the bag 1 is determined.

[0039] Furthermore, the second band 142 provided on the second bag body 12 is longer than the first band by 141, so that the first bag body 11 can be inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22, and with the bag 1 positioned by the second bag body 12, the body 21 of the jack 2 and the second bag body 12 can be tied together using the second band 142, making storage easy.

[0040] In addition, in the bag 1 of this embodiment, one end of the band 14 is fixed to the bag body 10, one of the hook and loop portions of the hook-and-loop fastener is provided at the engaging portion 15 provided on the front surface of the one end, and the other of the hook and loop portion of the hook-and-loop fastener is provided at the engaging portion 16 provided on the back surface of the other end of the band 14, and the engaging portion 16 of the second band 142 is provided at a position a predetermined distance L1 from the end of the other end of the second band 142, and the engaging portion 16 of the first band 141 is provided at a position a distance L2 shorter than the predetermined distance L1 from the end of the other end of the first band 141.

[0041] The fastening portion 16 of the second band 142 that fastens the main body 21 of the jack 2 and the second bag body 12 together is provided at a predetermined distance L1 from the end of the other end of the second band 142, making it easy to grasp the tip of the other end of the second band 142 and improving the workability when removing the bag 1 from the jack 2. In contrast, the fastening portion 16 of the first band 141 that fastens the first bag body 11 that is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22 is provided at a distance L2 that is shorter than the predetermined distance L1 from the end of the other end of the first band 141, making it difficult for the tip of the first band 141 to come off when the first bag body 11 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22.

[0042] Furthermore, since the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22, the degree of freedom of the bag 1 itself is limited by the space 23 even if the band 14 is loosened, so that interference with parts around the luggage compartment 31 and generation of low-absorption sound are suppressed.

[0043] Furthermore, the jack 2 can be removed while the bag 1 and the jack 2 are still tied together, or the bag 1 can be removed alone while the jack 2 is still fixed. This makes it possible to prevent unnecessary work from occurring depending on the failure situation.

[0044] Furthermore, in the conventional structure in which tools are attached to the side of the jack head 22, the height dimension increases, encroaching on the height space of the trunk 31. However, the storage structure of the tool bag 1 of this embodiment solves this problem. Also, there is no need for cable ties to secure the bag 1 to the rear floor panel 32, and there is no need for work space for the tying work.

[0045] Furthermore, in the bag 1 of this embodiment, the bands 14 further include a third band 143 provided on the second bag body 12 closer to the first bag body 11 than the second band 142, and a fourth band 144 provided on the second bag body 12 closer to the first bag body 11 than the third band 143 and shorter than the third band 143. Therefore, by tightening the fourth band 144, relatively short on-board tools (such as the tire stopper T4, wrench T5, screwdriver T6, and tire gauge T7) can be moved toward the third band 143. By tightening the third band 143 in this state, the relatively short on-board tools can be grouped together in the second bag body 12. As a result, only relatively long on-board tools remain in the first bag body 11, making it easier to insert the first bag body 11 into the space 23 of the jack head 22 and improving the operability of attaching the bag 1 to the jack 2.

[0046] In addition, in the bag 1 of this embodiment, a first band 141 is fixed to the outer surface of the first member 101 of the bag body 10 on which the flap 13 is provided, so as to extend in the same direction as the extension direction of the flap 13, and a second band 142 is fixed to the outer surface of the second member 102 of the bag body 10 facing the first member 101, so as to extend in the same direction as the extension direction of the flap 13.Therefore, when tying the first band 141, the tying direction (rotation direction) of the first band 141 and the closing direction (rotation direction) of the flap 13 coincide, improving workability. Furthermore, when tying the second band 142, the flap 13 is closed, and with the bag 1 tied with the first band 141, the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22. In this state, the second band 142 is turned from the top of the bag 1 toward the back, passed under the jack 2, and returned to the front, thereby tying both the bag 1 and the jack 2 together, making it easier to apply force when attaching the bag 1 to the jack 2 and improving workability.

[0047] In addition, in the bag 1 of this embodiment, a first band 141 is fixed to the outer surface of the first member 101 of the bag body 10 on which the flap 13 is provided, so as to extend in the same direction as the extension direction of the flap 13, and a second band 142 is fixed to the outer surface of the second member 102 of the bag body 10 facing the first member 101, so as to extend in the opposite direction to the extension direction of the flap 13.Therefore, when tying the first band 141, the tying direction (rotation direction) of the first band 141 and the closing direction (rotation direction) of the flap 13 coincide, improving workability. Furthermore, when tying the second band 142, the flap 13 is closed, and with the bag 1 tied with the first band 141, the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22. In this state, the second band 142 is turned from the top of the bag 1 toward the back, passed under the jack 2, and returned to the front, thereby tying both the bag 1 and the jack 2 together, making it easier to apply force when attaching the bag 1 to the jack 2 and improving workability.

[0048] Furthermore, in the case of the bag 1 of this embodiment, when the bag 1, which stores the on-board tools T1 to T7 in the bag body 10 and is tied with the band 14, is inserted into the C-shaped cross-section space 23 of the jack head 22 of the pantograph-type jack 2 attached to the luggage compartment 31 at the rear of the vehicle 3, the band 14 further includes a fifth band 145 provided on the bag body 10 at a position corresponding to the space 23 when the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23, so that no external force acts on the fifth band 145. This prevents the band 14 from peeling off and opening the flap 13, thereby suppressing the collision noise of the on-board tools due to vibrations while driving.

[0049] The storage structure of the in-vehicle tool bag of this embodiment includes a pantograph-type jack 2 having a jack head 22 with a C-shaped cross section and detachably attached to the luggage compartment 31 at the rear of the vehicle 3, and the in-vehicle tool bag 1. The jack 2 is attached in a position where the jack head 22 is located in the front of the vehicle. The in-vehicle tool bag 1 has a first flap 13 provided on the outer surface of the first member 101 of the bag body 10 so as to extend in the same direction as the flap 13. The band 141 is fixed, and a second band 142 is fixed to the outer surface of the second member 102 of the bag body 10 facing the first member 101 so as to extend in the same direction as the extension direction of the flap 13. The first bag body 11 of the bag 1, with the on-board tools T1 to T7 stored in the bag body 10 and tied with the band 14, is inserted into the C-shaped cross-sectional space 23 of the jack head 22, and the second bag body 12 and the jack 2 are tied together by the second band 142.

[0050] Therefore, when tying the first band 141, the tying direction (rotation direction) of the first band 141 coincides with the closing direction (rotation direction) of the flap 13, improving workability. When tying the second band 142, the flap 13 is closed, and with the bag 1 tied with the first band 141, the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22, and in this state, the second band 142 is turned from the top of the bag 1 toward the back while passing it under the jack 2 and then returned to the front, thereby tying both the bag 1 and the jack 2 together, making it easier to apply force when attaching the bag 1 to the jack 2 and improving workability.

[0051] The storage structure of the in-vehicle tool bag of this embodiment includes a pantograph-type jack 2 having a jack head 22 with a C-shaped cross section and detachably attached to the luggage compartment 31 at the rear of the vehicle 3, and the in-vehicle tool bag 1. The jack 2 is attached in a position where the jack head 22 is located at the rear of the vehicle. The in-vehicle tool bag 1 has a first flap 13 provided on the outer surface of the first member 101 of the bag body 10 so as to extend in the same direction as the flap 13. The band 141 is fixed, and a second band 142 is fixed to the outer surface of the second member 102 of the bag body 10 facing the first member 101 so as to extend in the opposite direction to the extension direction of the flap 13. The first bag body 11 of the bag 1, with the on-board tools T1 to T7 stored in the bag body 10 and tied with the band 14, is inserted into the C-shaped cross-sectional space 23 of the jack head 22, and the second bag body 12 and the jack 2 are tied together by the second band 142.

[0052] Therefore, when tying the first band 141, the tying direction (rotation direction) of the first band 141 coincides with the closing direction (rotation direction) of the flap 13, improving workability. When tying the second band 142, the flap 13 is closed, and with the bag 1 tied with the first band 141, the first bag body 11 of the bag 1 is inserted into the space 23 of the jack head 22, and in this state, the second band 142 is turned from the top of the bag 1 toward the back while passing it under the jack 2 and then returned to the front, thereby tying both the bag 1 and the jack 2 together, making it easier to apply force when attaching the bag 1 to the jack 2 and improving workability.

[0053] Furthermore, in the storage structure of the in-vehicle tool bag of this embodiment, a fifth band is provided on the bag body 10 at a position corresponding to the space 23 when the first bag body 11 is inserted into the space 23, and the fifth band binds the first bag body 11 along the short side of the first bag body 11. This prevents external force from acting on the fifth band, which causes the band 14 to peel off and the flap 13 to open, thereby preventing the impact noise of the in-vehicle tools caused by vibrations during driving.

[0054] In addition, the storage structure of the vehicle tool bag of this embodiment is provided in the luggage compartment 31, supports the luggage 33 on the upper surface of the rear floor panel 32, and further includes an M-shaped bracket 35 having an M-shaped cross section including multiple legs, and the tip of the first bag body 11 is inserted between the multiple legs, so that the empty space in the luggage compartment 31 (storage space in the under-box) can be effectively utilized.
