Abstract:
1. A drawer device for holding a container, comprising: an outside case with a front opening, an inside case disposed in the outside case to move between a pulled-out position where the inside case is pulled out from the outside case through the front opening and a stored position where the inside case is stored in the outside case, a holder main member disposed in the inside case to move between a use position where the holder main member is pulled out from the inside case and a non-use position where the holder main member is stored in the inside case, and a first locking member having an engaging claw pivotally supported on the inside case and urged in one direction to engage the holder main member to thereby fix the inside case to the holder main member to slide together, and releasing means for releasing the holder main member when the holder main member is pulled forward and the inside case is at the pulled-out position so that only the holder main member can slide further toward the use position, wherein said holder main member includes a depression engaging the engaging claw, and said releasing means is a protrusion protruding inwardly from the outside case so that when the protrusion presses a part of the engaging claw, the engaging claw disengages from the depression to allow the holder main member to move forward from the inside case.
