DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a buckle storage structure for a vehicle seat.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a vehicle seat has a flat structure in which a seat cushion and a seat back can be leveled at substantially the same height for a break or a good night's sleep, or for wide use of a luggage room. (Refer to Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-27239 as a similar technique). This kind of flat structure is provided with a seat cushion and a seat back, each of which turns to a horizontal inverted state, and when inverted, the surface of the seat cushion and the front surface of the seat back face downward.

[0003]

However, in such a conventional technique, the surface of the seat cushion and the front surface of the seat back face downward during inversion, so that a recess is formed in the front surface of the seat back. The structure to store the seat belt buckle cannot be adopted. That is,
Since the seat back is turned down when the vehicle is turned over, if the buckle falls out of the recess due to vibrations etc. during running of the vehicle, when the seat is returned to its original state and used again, the buckle will not be reachable and it will be difficult to use the buckle Because it becomes.

The present invention has been made by paying attention to such a conventional technique, and provides a buckle storage structure for a vehicle seat which can be employed also for a flat structure seat which is turned upside down.

[0005]

According to the first aspect of the present invention,
A buckle storage structure for a vehicle seat, comprising: a seat cushion and a seat back, each of which rotates to a horizontal inverted state, and stores a buckle of a seat belt in a recess formed in a front surface of the seat back. A telescopic belt having a holding tongue at the tip is attached to the inside thereof, and can be stored in the concave portion with the buckle engaged with the holding tongue.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the telescopic belt having the holding tongue at the tip is attached to the inside of the concave portion and the buckle is engaged with the holding tongue, the seat belt is stored in the concave portion. Even if the buckle falls out of the recess when in the inverted state, when the sheet is returned to its original position,
The buckle is located in the vicinity of the concave portion in a state of being hung on the elastic belt, and can be used immediately after being removed from the tongue. Further, since the elastic belt is used, no excessive force is applied to the buckle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

This embodiment relates to a third-row third seat 1 in a wagon as a vehicle. The third seat 1 includes a seat cushion 2 and a seat back 3, and a rear side is a luggage compartment R. The seat cushion 2 and the seat back 3 are supported by a pair of left and right brackets 4 fixed to the floor.

The roller 5 at the lower end of the seat back 3 is movable along the front-rear direction of the bracket 4. The intermediate portion is supported by the link 6 and can be turned over by releasing the lock (not shown) and moving the roller 5 rearward.

The seat cushion 2 has a rotating shaft 7 at the front end.
Can be rotated to the front side around the center to bring it into an inverted state. Protrusions 8 projecting to both left and right sides are formed on the seat cushion 2, and normally come into contact with the upper surface of the bracket 4, and at the time of inversion, come into contact with the upper surface of a stopper 9 formed at the front end of the bracket 4. The horizontal state is maintained.

A recess 10 is formed below the front center of the seat back 3, and two buckles 1 are formed in the recess 10.
1 can be stored. At the lower end of the recess 10 is formed a projection 12 which abuts on the stored buckle 11 to prevent it from falling off. The lower end of the seat belt 13 connected to the buckle 11 is fixed to an anchor portion 14 on the floor.

A telescopic belt 16 having a tongue 15 dedicated to holding at the tip is mounted in the concave portion 10. The elastic belt 16 has an upper end fixed and a tongue 15 at a lower end. The buckle 11 can be housed in the recess 10 while being engaged with the tongue 15.

Therefore, when the seat cushion 2 and the seat back 3 are turned over, the buckle 11 is
When the seat back 3 is returned to its original position (see FIG. 5), the buckle 11 is
Is located in the vicinity of the concave portion 10 in a state of being suspended in
It can be immediately removed from the tongue 15 and used. Further, since the elastic belt 16 is used, no excessive force is applied to the buckle 11.

[0014]

According to the present invention, since the telescopic belt having the holding tongue at the tip is attached to the inside of the recess and the buckle is engaged with the holding tongue, the belt is stored in the recess.
Should the seat back be in the inverted state, even if the buckle falls out of the recess, when the seat is returned, the buckle is located near the recess in a state of being suspended by the elastic belt, Can be used immediately after removal from the tongue. Further, since the elastic belt is used, no excessive force is applied to the buckle.
