PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate labor of attachment of a cover, reduce the number of components, and enhance a degree of freedom of a layout of a peripheral components such as an air bag unit.SOLUTION: A recess 51 which becomes hollow in a rear side is formed on a surface of a lid part 39 of a glove box 33, an outlet is formed on the recess 51, and an introduction port for introducing air from a HVAC 27 is formed on a side surface of the lid part 39, and an air channel R communicating with the outlet and the introduction port is formed in the inside of the lid part 39. The glove box 33 has a rod member having an insertion piece part which engages with an engagement hole of an instrument panel body 3 and thus, maintains a closed state of the glove box 33, and a knob 75. A lock device 69 configured to release engagement of the insertion piece part of the rod member with the engagement hole of the instrument panel body 3 by a pulling operation of the knob 75 to a rear side of the vehicle body, is attached so that the knob 75 covers the outlet of the glove box 33 from a cabin side.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】カバーの取付けの手間をなくすとともに部品点数を削減し、さらには、エアバッグユニット等の周辺部品のレイアウトの自由度を高める。【解決手段】グローブボックス３３のリッド部３９の表面に、裏側に凹む凹部５１を形成し、凹部５１に吹出口を形成する一方、リッド部３９の側面にＨＶＡＣ２７からの空気を導入する導入口を形成し、かつリッド部３９の内部に吹出口及び導入口に連通する空気流路Ｒを形成する。グローブボックス３３に、インストルメントパネル本体３の係合孔に係合することでグローブボックス３３の閉状態を保持する挿入片部を有するロッド部材と、ノブ７５とを備え、ノブ７５の車体後方への引張り操作により、ロッド部材の挿入片部とインストルメントパネル本体３の係合孔の係合を解除するように構成されたロック装置６９を、ノブ７５がグローブボックス３３の吹出口を車室側から覆うように取り付ける。【選択図】図１
