Storage box for a vehicle

A storage box includes a door that is coupled to the base. A pivot pin is coupled to the door and is operable between an engaged position, wherein the pivot pin is rotatably engaged with the base, and a disengaged position. The pivot pin is configured to move door-inboard due to contact with the base as the pivot pin moves from the disengaged position to the engaged position.

Vertical Cable Manager with Slam-Shut Door

A vertical cable manager includes a base frame and a door. The base frame has upper and lower support legs and upper and lower crossbars between the support legs. The door has retractable hinge pins at corners of the door. The crossbars have hinge rod receptacles to receive respective hinge pins and elastic latch members having a flexible arm and a catch portion. The catch portions secure the hinge pins in the hinge rod receptacles with the door closed and are deflectable through elastic deformation of the flexible arm to allow travel of the hinge pins through the hinge rod receptacles and past the catch portions when the door is moved from an open to a closed position.

A gap is maintained between: an outer surface of a shaft which is inserted in and removed from a hole of a box body and serves as a rotation shaft; and a hole wall, while axial misalignment of the shaft in the hole is inhibited. In a double opening storage device, a lid has two shafts that extend so as to advance and retract along two rotation shafts. Each shaft has a cut portion which is obtained by a part of a circumferential portion of a leading end portion being cut out and disposed in a lower portion at lid closed position. The box body has two holes, formed in a side wall, corresponding to the two shafts of the lid, and has a projection that projects upward from a lower surface of the hole wall of each hole, and that moves the shaft upward when the lid is opened.

Hinge Allowing Opening Along More Than One Axis and Complete Disengagement of Hinge and Removal of Hinged Device
20180258677 · 2018-09-13 · ·

The present invention provides a hinge apparatus for attaching a hinged device, such as a lid or door, to a structure to which the hinged device is to be attached. The hinge apparatus operates using hinge pins operable to selectively engage or disengage between the hinged device and the structure. In a closed position all pins can be engaged between the hinged device and the structure to hold the hinged device in the closed position. When desired to move the device to an open position, the hinge apparatus is operated so the pins on the desired hinge side are engaged between the hinged device and the structure while the pins on the opposite side of the hinged device are disengaged between the hinged device and the structure. This allows the hinged device to be rotated about the selected engaged pins, the engaged pins forming the hinge axis.

BIDIRECTIONALLY OPENABLE CONSOLE

A bidirectionally openable console includes side lid portions, a center lid portion positioned between the side lid portions, a first button unit positioned at a front end of the center lid portion, a second button unit positioned at a rear end of the center lid portion, and rotary units configured to be respectively rotated by movement of the first and second button units. The console further includes: fastening units, each of which is constructed such that, when an opening request input is applied to a corresponding button unit, a corresponding rotary unit is rotated to retract a central shaft portion into the center lid portion; hinge units, each of which is rotated together with the center lid portion when the center lid portion is opened, and locking units, each of which restricts movement of the fastening unit when the center lid portion is closed.

EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE

CONSOLE LID OPENING/CLOSING MECHANISM
20180022281 · 2018-01-25 · ·

A dual swing-mode console lid opening/closing mechanism configured to allow a console lid to be selectively opened and closed about opposite sides of a console body includes a pair of hinge units positioned on opposite sides of the console lid. The hinge units correspond to the opposite sides of the console body. In addition, the mechanism includes a pair of manipulation knobs corresponding to the hinge units. The hinge units are rotatably attached to the console lid and include hinge stoppers associated with the manipulation knobs. The hinge units are configured to be connected to the console body in a lid-closed condition to form connected conditions of the hinge units to the console body. Each of the hinge stoppers is configured to engage the console body in the lid-closed condition. Each of the hinge stoppers is configured to be disengaged from the console body by manipulating the corresponding manipulation knob.
