Storage body

Abstract

A storage body comprises a main body, a cover body, an interlocking member, a slider, and an urging member. The main body has an opening portion and a guide portion. The main body has a base plate which is provided with the guide portion, the interlocking member, the slider, and the urging member integrally. The slider has a pin portion connected to the interlocking member by way of a connecting mechanism composed of a rack and a pinion. The urging member has opposite ends. One of the opposite ends of the urging member is fastened to the base plate or the interlocking member, and the other one of the opposite ends of the urging member is fastened to the slider. Dampers damping the opening movement or the closing movement of the cover body can be further provided in the base plate integrally.

1 . An storage body, comprising: 
 a main body having an opening portion and a guide portion;    a cover body supported by said main body in such a manner that said opening portion can be opened and closed;    an interlocking member connected to said cover body, and interlocking with opening and closing motion of said cover body;    a slider having a pin portion which is connected to said interlocking member by way of a connecting mechanism and is guided by engaging with said guide portion, and moving along said guide portion by engagement of said guide portion with said pin portion in association with the opening and closing motion of said cover body; and    an urging member being expandable and contractible for accumulating an urging force in association with the opening and closing motion of said cover body, said urging force urging said cover body in at least one of an opening movement and a closing movement;    said main body having a base plate;    said base plate being provided with said guide portion, said interlocking member, said slider, and said urging member; and    said urging member having opposite ends, one of the opposite ends fastened to said base plate or said interlocking member, the other one of the opposite ends fastened to said slider.    
   
   
       2 . The storage body set forth in  claim 1  further comprising a first damper damping the opening movement or the closing movement of said cover body by damping a movement of said slider, wherein: 
 said first damper is provided in said base plate.    
   
   
       3 . The storage body set forth in  claim 1  or  claim 2  further comprising a second damper damping the opening movement or the closing movement of said cover body by damping a movement of said interlocking member, wherein: 
 said second damper is provided in said base plate.    
   
   
       4 . The storage body set forth in  claim 1  further comprising: 
 a first damper damping one of the opening movement and the closing movement of said cover body by damping the movement of said slider; and    a second damper damping the other one of the opening movement and the closing movement of said cover body by damping the movement of said interlocking member, wherein:    said first damper and said second damper are provided in the base plate.    
   
   
       5 . The storage body set forth in any of  claim 1  to  4 , wherein: 
 said connecting mechanism is composed of a rack provided in said interlocking member and a pinion pivotally supported in said slider rotatably and meshing with said rack; and    said slider moves along said guide portion by the engagement of said guide portion with said pin portion thereof in association with the opening or closing motion of said cover body, and reciprocates along said rack by mesh of said rack with said pinion.
