That is, the side wall portion 15 has a triangular shape in side view, and an upper end portion of a rear portion (from a front-rear direction intermediate portion to a rear end portion) of the side wall portion 15 forms an inclined portion 15a which becomes a downward slope as it goes rearward. The rear end of the inclined portion 15a is located rearward of the rear end (the convex portion 11c) of the first housing portion. The inclined portion 15a may be formed over the entire front-rear direction of the side wall portion 15, or may be formed in a part of the front-rear direction of the side wall portion 15 a. In the latter case, a high wall portion having the same height as the front end portion of the inclined portion 15a is formed on the front side of the inclined portion 15a, or a low wall portion having the same height as the rear end portion of the inclined portion 15a is formed on the rear side of the inclined portion 15a, in the side wall portion 15.

In the present embodiment, the coupling member 10 is formed by assembling the coupling member main body portion, the flat plate portion, and the frame portion to each other. The connecting member body integrally includes a front wall portion 12, a rear rib portion 13, side rib portions 14, side wall portions 15, and an extended wall portion 16. The flat plate portion constitutes a front portion of the bottom wall portion 11, that is, an article placement portion in the first accommodation portion. The frame portion has a rectangular frame shape in plan view, and constitutes a rear portion of the bottom wall portion 11, i.e., a peripheral edge portion of the hole portion 11 a. Each side of the frame portion has a convex shape protruding upward, and the front side of the frame portion is the convex portion 11c described above. The frame portion integrally includes a wall portion constituting a surface of the side rib portion 14 on the front passenger seat 5 side. In fig. 3, the flat plate portion and the frame portion are omitted.

< second housing part >

As shown in fig. 5, the vehicle storage structure 1 includes a second storage portion 20 formed at a position higher than the coupling member (first storage portion) 10 and on the instrument panel 2 (in the present embodiment, the instrument panel 2 and the upper end portion of the coupling member 10). The second housing portion 20 has an opening portion 20a in the instrument panel 2. In the present embodiment, the instrument panel 2 is formed with an upper edge portion and both vehicle width direction side edge portions of a rectangular opening portion 20a in front view, and a lower edge portion of the opening portion 20a is formed by the extending wall portion 16 of the connecting member 10. The second receiving portion 20 integrally includes: a lower wall portion 21 and an upper wall portion 22 extending forward from the dash panel 2; and side wall portions 23, 24 extending forward from the dash panel 2 and connecting the vehicle width direction end portions of the lower wall portion 21 and the upper wall portion 22. The second housing portion 20 integrally includes a lower wall portion 21, an upper wall portion 22, and a front wall portion 25 connecting front end portions of the side wall portions 23 and 24. The upper surface of the lower wall portion 21 is a first article placing portion on which the article a2 is placed.

The second housing portion 20 includes the extending wall portion 16 of the connecting member 10 as a second article placing portion extending rearward (vehicle compartment side) from the lower wall portion 21. The coefficient of friction of the upper surface of the extended wall portion 16 constituting the second article mounting portion is larger than the coefficient of friction of the upper surface of the lower wall portion 21 constituting the first article mounting portion. Here, the extended wall portion 16 may be a member (e.g., a decorative member) having a different material from the first article mounting portion (the lower wall portion 21). As the decorative member, for example, the extension wall portion 16 may be subjected to decorative molding, or a skin material may be provided on the upper surface of the extension wall portion 16.

The decorative member may be provided on the outer surface of the coupling member main body portion (the rear surface of the rear rib portion 13, the side surface of the side rib portion 14 facing the driver's seat 4, the side surface of the side wall portion 15 facing the passenger's seat 5, and the upper surface of the extension wall portion 16). With this configuration, the feeling of unity of the instrument panel 2, the connecting member 10, and the center console 3 can be further improved.

The rear end (front end) of the upper surface of the extending wall 16 constituting the second article mounting portion is substantially flush with the vehicle interior side end (rear end) of the upper surface of the lower wall 21 constituting the first article mounting portion. The extending wall portion 16 is inclined downward toward the vehicle compartment side (rear). That is, the height position of the vehicle compartment side end portion (rear end portion) of the upper surface of the extended wall portion 16 constituting the second article mounting portion is lower than the height position of the rear side end portion (front end portion) of the upper surface of the extended wall portion 16.

< use example of storage units >

The occupant of the driver's seat 4 places his or her own article (e.g., an electronic device (mobile terminal) or the like) a1 on the lower wall portion 11 (specifically, the non-contact charging device 8) of the first housing portion 10 through the opening 10 a. The article a1 stored in the first storage section 10 is charged by the non-contact charging device 8.

On the other hand, the side wall portion 15 and the operation device 7 are disposed between the passenger seat 5 and the first housing portion 10. Therefore, the passenger of the front passenger seat 5 places his or her own article (e.g., an electronic device (mobile terminal) or the like) a2 on the lower wall portion (first article placement portion) 21 and the extended wall portion (second article placement portion) 16 of the second housing portion 20 via the opening portion 20 a. The article a2 placed on the lower wall portion 21 slides forward on the lower wall portion 21 and is stored in the second storage portion 20. The article a2 stored in the second storage unit 20 is connected to the connection terminal 6 via a cable or the like not shown, and is charged by a battery of the vehicle.

The article a2 stored in the second storage section 20 is placed on the lower wall portion (first article placing section) 21 and the extended wall portion (second article placing section) 16 of the second storage section 20. Therefore, even when the article a2 stored in the second storage portion 20 attempts to move rearward due to acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle, the article a2 is stably held in the second storage portion 20 by the frictional resistance of the extending wall portion 16.

Further, since the vehicle interior side end portion of the extended wall portion 16 is lower than the rear side end portion, the occupant can grasp the article a2 by pinching it from both the upper and lower sides, and can take out the article a2 from the second storage portion 20 by sliding it rearward on the lower wall portion 21 in a state where the article a2 is in contact with the lower wall portion 21 while being separated from the extended wall portion 16, by utilizing the fact that the vehicle interior side end portion of the extended wall portion 16 is low. Here, the extending wall portion 16 having high frictional resistance can appropriately assist the occupant in gripping the article a 2.

The vehicle storage structure 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention has a plurality of storage portions provided with openings 10a, 20a at least one of the front portion and the front portion of the center console 3 and the dash panel 2, and is characterized in that the plurality of storage portions include at least a first storage portion (connecting member 10) having a side wall portion 15 formed on the passenger seat 5 side in the vehicle width direction and a second storage portion 20 arranged at a height position different from the first storage portion, and the opening 10a of the first storage portion is formed on the driver seat 4 side in the vehicle width direction.

Therefore, the vehicle storage structure 1 can prevent the passenger in the front passenger seat 5 from picking up the article a1 by setting the first storage portion for the passenger in the driver seat 4 side and the side wall portion 15. In addition, in the vehicle storage structure 1, the height positions of the first storage section and the second storage section 20 are different from each other, so that the vehicle width direction dimensions of the first storage section and the second storage section 10 can be increased, and the selection of the storable articles a1 and a2 can be increased. In addition, the vehicle storage structure 1 enables the occupant of the driver's seat 4 to appropriately recognize the position of the first storage unit by the side wall portion 15.

The vehicle storage structure 1 is characterized in that the first storage unit and an operation device 7 for operating equipment mounted on the vehicle are disposed in a front portion of the center console 3, and the operation device 7 is disposed behind the first storage unit.

Therefore, the vehicle storage structure 1 can make the front portion of the passenger seat 5 recognize that the front portion of the center console 3 is a space for the passenger of the driver seat 4 by the operation device 7, and can prevent the passenger of the passenger seat 5 from picking up the article a1 by the side wall portion 15 and the operation device 7.

The vehicle storage structure 1 is characterized in that the side wall portion 15 has an inclined portion 15a inclined downward toward the rear of the vehicle, and a rear end portion of the inclined portion 15a (the convex portion 11c of the bottom wall portion 11) is located rearward of a rear end portion of the first storage portion.

Therefore, in the vehicle storage structure 1, the side wall portion 15 extends to the rear of the first storage portion, so that the side wall portion 15 can further appropriately prevent the passenger in the front passenger seat 5 from picking up an article. In addition, the vehicle storage structure 1 can increase the size of the first storage unit in the front-rear direction and improve the usability of the first storage unit for the occupant of the driver's seat 4, as compared with the case where the upper end portion of the rear portion of the side wall portion 15 is not inclined. In addition, in the vehicle storage structure 1, when the side wall portion 15 extends to the rear of the operation device 7, the occupant of the front passenger seat 5 can be appropriately prevented from erroneously touching the operation device 7.

In addition, the vehicle storage structure 1 is characterized in that a connection terminal 6 is provided on a vehicle width direction side of the opening portion 20a of the second storage portion 20, and the connection terminal 6 is positioned on a front passenger seat 5 side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the side wall portion 15.

Therefore, the vehicle storage structure 1 can make the passenger in the front passenger seat 5 easily use the second storage portion 20 through the connection terminal 6. In the vehicle storage structure 1, the connection terminal 6 is provided on the passenger seat 5 side with respect to the side wall portion 15 in the vehicle width direction, so that the cable connecting the article a2 stored in the second storage portion 20 and the connection terminal 6 can be prevented from interfering with the use of the first storage portion and the operation device 7 by the occupant of the driver seat 4.

The vehicle storage structure 1 is characterized in that the first storage unit includes a non-contact charging device 8 for transmitting power to the electronic device in a non-contact manner.

Therefore, the vehicle storage structure 1 can charge the article a1 of the passenger in the driver's seat 4 without cables, and can prevent the cables from interfering with the taking and placing of the article a1 into and out of the first storage unit.

The embodiments of the present invention have been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and can be appropriately modified within a range not departing from the gist of the present invention. For example, in the case where the dash panel 2 and the center console 3 are separated in the front-rear direction, at least one of the first housing portion and the second housing portion 20 may be provided in front of the center console 3 (between the dash panel 2 and the center console 3 in the front-rear direction).

The article mounting portion (flat plate portion) in the first storage portion may be provided integrally with the center console 3, not with the connecting member 10.

The second storage portion 20 is provided in an interior member other than the instrument panel 2.
