Abstract

A sliding type glove box is proposed. The sliding type glove box includes a housing mounted to a dashboard, a plurality of rails provided inside the housing, and a storage part configured to be ejected in a sliding manner while being moved along the rails, wherein the rails include: outer rails mounted to the housing; and inner rails configured to be movable along the outer rails and connected to a lower portion of the storage part, wherein each of the outer rails has a stopper removably provided thereon to limit a moving distance of the storage part.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A sliding type glove box comprising:
a housing mounted to a dashboard;
a plurality of rails provided inside the housing; and
a storage part configured to be ejected in a sliding manner while being moved along the rails,
wherein the rails comprise:
outer rails mounted to the housing; and
inner rails configured to be movable along the outer rails and connected to a lower portion of the storage part,
wherein each of the outer rails has a stopper removably provided thereon to limit a moving distance of the storage part, and
wherein a connection piece that is connected to the stopper is provided on a longitudinal end of each of the outer rails, the connection piece being configured to be bent from the longitudinal end of the outer rail toward a lateral portion of the housing.

2. The sliding type glove box of claim 1 , wherein the stopper comprises:
a first coupling member removably coupled to the connection piece;
a blocking member integrally connected to the first coupling member, and extended in a facing direction of the plurality of outer rails to block the longitudinal end of each of the outer rails; and
a second coupling member integrally connected to the blocking member, and coupled to a lower-side front surface of the housing.

3. The sliding type glove box of claim 2 , wherein a connection member that is connected to each of the inner rails is provided on the lower portion of the storage part, and
the connection member is disposed on one portion of the lower portion of the storage part.

4. The sliding type glove box of claim 3 , wherein a fixed pin that is inserted into a movement prevention hole formed in the blocking member is provided on a front surface of the connection member.

5. The sliding type glove box of claim 4 , wherein the front surface of the connection member has a buffer member that is brought into contact with a rear surface of the blocking member when the storage part is moved in the sliding manner and exposed out of the housing.
