Abstract
A receptacle, such as an ashtray, glove compartment or the like for vehicles, is described, comprised of a housing, a cover, which is hinged to the housing along a rim edge and extends over the housing with at least one curved guide arm, and a releasable detent device for maintaining the cover against the force of an opening spring in the closed position when the cover covers the housing. The detent device, which can be actuated by acting on the cover, has a heart-shaped control cam, which is arranged on the guide arm and embodied as a connecting link groove. A bolt, which is formed on a hinged lever on the housing side, acts against the cam and rests in a lockable manner therewith. In connection with this receptacle, it is provided in accordance with the invention that a blocking device, which reacts to extreme changes in velocity, is arranged on the housing. The blocking device prevents the hinged lever from relinquishing its position thereby maintaining the cover in the locked position.
