Disclosure of Invention
Technical problem to be solved by the invention
In the in-vehicle camera described in patent document 1, the in-vehicle camera main body (in-vehicle component) is held on the holder by the urging force of the leaf spring, and therefore, the urging force of the leaf spring needs to be increased in order to firmly hold the in-vehicle component. However, in the structure of patent document 1, when the vehicle-mounted component is mounted on the bracket, the plate spring must be elastically deformed by pressing the plate spring from the direction opposite to the biasing force of the plate spring, and therefore if the biasing force of the plate spring is too strong, a strong force is required to elastically deform the plate spring, which may complicate the engaging operation. Therefore, it is difficult to simultaneously achieve enhancement of the holding force of the vehicle-mounted component and improvement of the mounting workability.
The present disclosure provides a mounting structure of an in-vehicle component, which can realize both enhancement of a holding force of the in-vehicle component and improvement of mounting workability.
Means for solving the problems
In a first aspect of the present disclosure, a mounting structure of a vehicle-mounted component includes a bracket and the vehicle-mounted component. The bracket has a pair of support surfaces and a tilt restricting engagement portion, and is fixed to the vehicle body side. The pair of support surfaces are arranged apart from each other in a first direction and extend in a second direction intersecting the first direction. The tilt restricting engagement portion is provided between the pair of support surfaces and is separated from the pair of support surfaces when viewed from the second direction. The vehicle-mounted component has a pair of shaft-shaped protruding portions and a tilt restricting locking portion, and is held by the bracket. A pair of shaft-like projections correspond to the pair of support surfaces and project to both sides in the first direction. The tilt limit locking portion is engageable with the tilt limit engaging portion.
The pair of support surfaces are provided with a pair of recesses which are recessed so as to be able to hold the pair of projections. A pair of leaf spring members opposed to each of the pair of concave portions is fixed to the bracket. The plate spring member is elastically deformed in a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction by the protruding portion moving from one side to the other side of the second direction on the support surface to allow the protruding portion to move toward the recess, and pushes the protruding portion housed in the recess from the third direction toward the recess to elastically hold the protruding portion. The inclination restriction locking portion can be engaged with the inclination restriction engagement portion by inclining the vehicle-mounted component about the pair of protruding portions that enter between the support surface and the leaf spring member. The engagement between the tilt limit locking portion and the tilt limit engagement portion limits the inclination of the vehicle-mounted component about the pair of protruding portions. The projection is elastically held between the plate spring member and the recess, and the tilt limit locking portion is engaged with the tilt limit engaging portion, whereby the vehicle-mounted component is held by the bracket.
In the above configuration, the projection portion housed in the recess portion is pushed toward the recess portion from the third direction by the plate spring member, the plate spring member elastically holds the projection portion between the plate spring member and the recess portion, and the tilt restriction locking portion is engaged with the tilt restriction engagement portion, thereby restricting the vehicle-mounted component from tilting about the pair of projection portions. Therefore, the change of the mounting angle of the vehicle-mounted component with respect to the bracket can be reliably prevented, and the vehicle-mounted component can be reliably held with respect to the bracket.
Further, when the in-vehicle component is mounted on the bracket, the pair of projections of the in-vehicle component moves from one side to the other side in the second direction on the support surface while elastically deforming the plate spring member in the third direction. That is, the pair of projecting portions of the vehicle-mounted component move in the second direction intersecting the third direction in which the urging force of the plate spring component is applied, and even in the case where the urging force of the plate spring component is increased in order to reliably hold the vehicle-mounted component, the amount of increase in the resistance that the projecting portions receive from the plate spring component when the projecting portions are moved is smaller than the amount of increase in the urging force of the plate spring component. Therefore, it is possible to achieve both enhancement of the holding force of the vehicle-mounted component and improvement of the mounting workability.
In a second aspect of the present disclosure, the support face and the plate spring member allow the protrusion to move to the other side in the second direction than the recess on the support face. When the vehicle-mounted component that is inclined about the pair of protruding portions that enter the recess on the other side in the second direction is moved to one side in the second direction, the protruding portions are accommodated in the recess and elastically held, and the inclination restricting locking portions are engaged with the inclination restricting engagement portions.
In the above configuration, when the tilt limit locking portion is engaged with the tilt limit engaging portion, the vehicle-mounted component tilted about the pair of protruding portions that enter the recess portion on the other side in the second direction is moved to one side in the second direction. Thereby, the protruding portion is accommodated in the recess and elastically held, and the tilt limit locking portion is engaged with the tilt limit engaging portion. Therefore, since a strong force is not required when the tilt limit lock portion is engaged with the tilt limit engagement portion, the vehicle-mounted component can be easily mounted on the bracket.
In a third aspect of the present disclosure, the tilt limit locking portion is engaged with the tilt limit engaging portion by tilting the vehicle-mounted component about the pair of protruding portions that are accommodated in the recess and elastically held.
In the above configuration, when the tilt limit locking portion is engaged with the tilt limit engaging portion, it is only necessary to tilt the vehicle-mounted component about the pair of protruding portions that are accommodated in the recess and elastically held, and to engage the tilt limit locking portion with the tilt limit engaging portion. Therefore, the vehicle-mounted component can be easily mounted on the bracket.
In a fourth aspect of the present disclosure, a mounting structure of a vehicle-mounted component has a bracket fixed to a vehicle body side and a vehicle-mounted component held by the bracket, wherein the bracket includes: a pair of support parts disposed in a first direction apart from each other; and a clamping part; the on-vehicle component includes: a pair of protruding portions corresponding to the pair of supporting portions and protruding in the first direction; and a locking portion which can be engaged with the engaging portion; wherein each of the pair of support portions has a recess and a support surface; a plate spring member opposed to each of the pair of support portions is fixed to the bracket; the engaging portion engages with the lock portion and restricts inclination about the protruding portion in a state where the pair of protruding portions are held by the recess and the plate spring member.
In a fifth aspect of the present disclosure, the engaging portion is not engaged with the lock portion in a state where the pair of protruding portions are located between the support surface and the plate spring member.
Effects of the invention
According to the present disclosure, it is possible to achieve both enhancement of the holding force of the vehicle-mounted component and improvement of the mounting workability.

As shown in fig. 5 (a), 5 (b), 5 (c), and 6, the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is a camera capable of imaging the front of the vehicle 1, and the vehicle-mounted camera 6 includes a pair of shaft-shaped protrusions 40 protruding from a camera body 45 to both sides in the vehicle width direction, and an engagement protrusion 41 protruding forward from the camera body 45, and is disposed between the left and right side wall portions 16 of the camera mount 4. In a state where the onboard camera 6 is mounted on the camera mount 4 (hereinafter referred to as a camera mounting state), the upper end of the camera body 45 is disposed above the support surface 23 of the camera mount 4. In a state where the in-vehicle camera 6 is disposed between the left and right side wall portions 16 of the camera stand 4, the shaft-like protruding portion 40 is formed to have a length corresponding to the support surface 23 of the camera stand 4 so as to be capable of being placed on the support surface 23 of the camera stand 4. The engaging protrusion 41 is formed to have a size that can be inserted into the engaging hole 19 of the engaging portion 18 of the camera holder 4.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the camera cover 7 is fixed to a cover mounting portion 12 of the instrument panel 3 to cover the camera mount 4 and the onboard camera 6 in a camera mounted state. A lens exposure hole (not shown) for exposing a lens (not shown) of the camera body 45 is formed in an upper portion of the front surface of the camera cover 7.
Next, description is made regarding an installation operation when the onboard camera 6 is installed in the camera mount 4.
As shown in fig. 5 (a), 5 (b), 5 (c), and 6, when the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is mounted on the camera mount 4, the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is first disposed between the pair of side wall portions 16 in a state inclined obliquely upward and forward, and the protruding portion 40 of the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is inserted from the front between the support surface 23 of the camera mount 4 and the front end portion 37 of the leaf spring 5, and is moved to a rear region rearward of the recessed portion 24. At this time, the plate spring 5 is elastically deformed upward by the protruding portion 40 moving from the front side to the rear side on the support surface 23, so that the protruding portion 40 is allowed to move rearward. Next, the front end side of the in-vehicle camera 6 is tilted downward about the pair of projections 40 entering the rear region as an axis (center), and the engagement projection 41 of the in-vehicle camera 6 is disposed rearward of the engagement hole 19 of the engagement portion 18 of the camera holder 4. Finally, by moving the vehicle-mounted camera 6 forward, the pair of protrusions 40 of the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is moved forward and accommodated in the recess 24 of the camera mount 4, and the engagement protrusion 41 of the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is inserted into the engagement hole 19 of the engagement portion 18 of the camera mount 4 and engaged therewith. The pair of protruding portions 40 of the onboard camera 6 housed in the recess 24 of the camera mount 4 are pushed downward by the contact portion 36 of the plate spring 5 and are elastically held. When the pair of protruding portions 40 of the onboard camera 6 is moved forward from the rear region rearward of the recess 24, the plate spring 5 is elastically deformed upward by the protruding portions 40 moving forward from the rear side on the support surface 23, and the pair of protruding portions 40 is allowed to move toward the recess 24.
In the camera attachment state, the plate spring 5 pushes and elastically holds the protruding portion 40 of the onboard camera 6 housed in the recessed portion 24 of the camera mount 4 from above toward the recessed portion 24, and the engaging hole 19 of the engaging portion 18 of the camera mount 4 engages with the engaging protruding portion 41 of the onboard camera 6, thereby restricting the tilting of the onboard camera 6 about the pair of protruding portions 40 of the onboard camera 6. The projection 40 is elastically held between the contact portion 36 of the leaf spring 5 and the recess 24 of the camera holder 4, and the engagement projection 41 is inserted into the engagement hole 19 of the engagement portion 18 of the camera holder 4 and engaged with the engagement hole 19 of the engagement portion 18, whereby the in-vehicle camera 6 is held by the camera holder 4.
According to the present embodiment, the plate spring 5 pushes the protruding portion 40 housed in the recessed portion 24 from above toward the recessed portion 24, so that the plate spring 5 elastically holds the protruding portion 40 between the plate spring and the recessed portion 24, and the in-vehicle camera 6 is restricted from tilting about the pair of protruding portions 40 by the engagement of the engagement protruding portion 41 of the engagement portion 18 with the engagement hole 19. Therefore, a change in the mounting angle of the onboard camera 6 with respect to the camera stand 4 is reliably prevented, and the onboard camera 6 can be reliably held with respect to the camera stand 4.
Further, when the onboard camera 6 is mounted on the camera mount 4, the pair of protruding portions 40 of the onboard camera 6 moves in the front-rear direction on the support surface 23 while elastically deforming the plate spring 5 in the up-down direction. That is, the pair of protruding portions 40 of the onboard camera 6 moves in the front-rear direction intersecting the up-down direction in which the urging force of the plate spring 5 is applied, and even when the urging force of the plate spring 5 is increased in order to reliably hold the onboard camera 6, the increase in the resistance force that the protruding portions 40 receive from the plate spring 5 when the protruding portions 40 are moved is smaller than the increase in the urging force of the plate spring 5. Therefore, it is possible to enhance the holding force of the in-vehicle camera 6 and improve the mounting workability.
In the above configuration, when the engagement protrusion 41 is engaged with the engagement hole 19 of the engagement portion 18, the in-vehicle camera 6 tilted about the pair of protrusions 40 that enter rearward of the recess 24 moves forward. Thereby, the protruding portion 40 is accommodated in the recessed portion 24 and elastically held, and the engaging protruding portion 41 engages with the engaging hole 19 of the engaging portion 18. Therefore, since a strong force is not required when the engagement protrusion 41 is engaged with the engagement hole 19, the in-vehicle camera 6 can be easily attached to the camera mount 4.
In addition, although the present disclosure has exemplified the structure of the bracket main body 13 integrally including the floor portion 15 extending in the vehicle width direction in a state of intersecting with the vertical direction and the side wall portions 16 curved from both vehicle width direction end edges of the floor portion 15 and extending upward, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, the bracket main body may be configured to integrally include a floor portion extending in the vertical direction in a state of intersecting with the vehicle width direction and side wall portions curved from both vertical direction end edges of the floor portion and extending upward.
In the present embodiment, the camera mount 4 is disposed substantially at the center in the vehicle width direction on the upper surface of the dash panel 3, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the camera mount may be fixed to the ceiling of the vehicle compartment 2.
In the present embodiment, the engagement projection 41 of the onboard camera 6 is inserted into the engagement hole 19 of the camera mount 4 and engaged therewith, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, an engagement projection provided on the camera mount 4 may be inserted into an engagement hole formed in the onboard camera 6 and engaged therewith.
Next, a second embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to fig. 8 to 10. Here, in the present embodiment, the shapes of the engaging portion 47 and the side wall portion 16 of the camera holder 46 and the shape of the plate spring 70 are different from those of the first embodiment, and the same reference numerals are used for the same configuration as that of the first embodiment and the description thereof is omitted.
As shown in fig. 8 and 9, an engagement portion 47 is provided at a vehicle width direction center portion of the protruding region 17 of the bottom plate portion 15 of the camera stand 46. The engagement portion 47 has a pair of engagement plate portions 51 that stand apart from each other in the vehicle width direction, and is fixed to a front end edge portion of a central portion in the vehicle width direction of the protruding region 17 of the bottom plate portion 15 of the camera mount 46. The pair of engaging plate sections 51 each have a base end section 52, an intermediate section 53, and a tip end section 54, and protrude upward from the bottom plate section 15 of the camera holder 46. The base end portions 52 of the pair of engaging plate portions 51 extend upward from the bottom plate portion 15 of the camera holder 46 in a direction substantially orthogonal to the bottom plate portion 15 of the camera holder 46, and are arranged substantially parallel to each other. The intermediate portions 53 of the pair of engaging plate portions 51 extend upward from the upper end of the base end portion 52 in a direction toward each other. The upper ends of the intermediate portions 53 of the pair of engagement plate portions 51 are separated from each other in the vehicle width direction. The distance between the upper ends of the intermediate portions 53 of the pair of engaging plate portions 51 is set shorter than the length of the engaging protrusion 41 of the in-vehicle camera 6 in the vehicle width direction. The front end portions 54 of the pair of engaging plate portions 51 extend upward from the upper end of the intermediate portion 53 in a direction away from each other. The base end portion 52 and the intermediate portion 53 of the pair of engagement plate portions 51 define a housing area 55 in which the engagement protruding portion 41 of the in-vehicle camera 6 is housed. The engagement protruding portion 41 of the in-vehicle camera 6 is guided from above to the housing area 55 by the vehicle width direction inner side surfaces of the front end portions 54 of the pair of engagement plate portions 51.
The side wall portion 16 of the camera stand 46 has a side wall base portion 60 that extends upward from both vehicle width direction end portions of the bottom plate portion 15 while being bent, and an upper support portion 61 that extends outward in the vehicle width direction while being bent from an upper end portion of the side wall base portion 60, and stands upright along the vehicle width direction outer end edge of the bottom plate portion 15 while extending in the front-rear direction. A fixing portion 71 of a leaf spring 70 described later is fixed to the vehicle width direction inner side surface of the upper portion of the rear end of the side wall base portion 60.
As shown in fig. 9 and 10, the leaf spring 70 integrally has a fixing portion 71 fixed to the side wall portion 16, a base end portion 72 disposed rearward of the side wall portion 16, and a leaf spring main body 73 opposed to the support surface 23 of the side wall portion 16. The fixing portion 71 is formed in a plate shape and fixed to a rear end portion of the vehicle width direction inner side surface of the side wall base portion 60. The base end portion 72 is formed in a plate shape, is bent from a rear end edge of the fixing portion 71, extends outward in the vehicle width direction, and has an upper end edge disposed above the support surface 23 of the side wall portion 16. In the present embodiment, the fixing portion 71 of the leaf spring 70 is fixed to the vehicle width direction inner side surface of the rear end upper portion of the side wall base portion 60, and the base end portion 72 is bent and extended outward in the vehicle width direction from the rear end edge of the fixing portion 71, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the fixing portion of the leaf spring may be fixed to the vehicle width direction outer side surface of the rear end upper portion of the side wall base portion 60, and the base end portion may be bent and extended outward in the vehicle width direction from the rear end edge of the fixing portion.
The leaf spring main body 73 integrally has the contact portion 58 and the tip end portion 59. The abutment portion 58 is bent forward from the upper end edge of the base end portion 72, linearly extends substantially parallel to the support surface 23 at a position spaced upward from the support surface 23, and faces the recess 24 at a position spaced upward from the recess 24 of the side wall portion 16. The front end portion 59 extends linearly while being inclined with respect to the contact portion 58 so as to gradually separate from the support surface 23 as it goes forward from the front end edge of the contact portion 58.
Next, a mounting operation when the onboard camera 6 is mounted on the camera mount 46 will be described.
As shown in fig. 8 to 10, when the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is mounted on the camera mount 46, first, the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is disposed between the pair of side wall portions 16 in a state of being inclined obliquely upward and forward, and the protruding portion 40 of the vehicle-mounted camera 6 is inserted from the front between the support surface 23 of the camera mount 46 and the front end portion 59 of the plate spring 70, and is moved to the recess 24 of the camera mount 46 and is housed in the recess 24. At this time, the plate spring 70 fixed to the camera mount 46 is elastically deformed upward by the protruding portion 40 of the onboard camera 6 moving from the front side to the rear side on the support surface 23 of the camera mount 46, and allows the pair of protruding portions 40 to move toward the recess 24. The pair of protruding portions 40 of the onboard camera 6 housed in the recess 24 of the camera holder 46 are pushed downward by the contact portion 58 of the plate spring 70 and are elastically held. Next, the front end side of the onboard camera 6 is tilted downward with the pair of protrusions 40 of the onboard camera 6 accommodated in the recess 24 of the camera holder 46 and elastically held as axes. The engagement protrusion 41 of the onboard camera 6 is guided by the vehicle width direction inner surfaces of the front end portions 54 of the pair of engagement plate portions 51 of the camera mount 46, is accommodated in the accommodation area 55 between the pair of engagement plate portions 51, and is engaged with the engagement portion 47 of the camera mount 46.
In the camera mounting state, the plate spring 70 pushes and elastically holds the protruding portion 40 of the onboard camera 6 housed in the recessed portion 24 of the camera mount 46 from above toward the recessed portion 24, and the engaging portion 47 of the camera mount 46 engages with the engaging protruding portion 41 of the onboard camera 6, thereby restricting the onboard camera 6 from tilting about the pair of protruding portions of the onboard camera 6 as an axis. The in-vehicle camera 6 is elastically held between the abutting portion 58 of the plate spring 70 and the recess 24 of the camera holder 46 by the protruding portion 40, and is held by the camera holder 46 by the engaging protruding portion 41 engaging with the engaging portion 47 of the camera holder 46.
In the present embodiment, the engagement protrusion 41 of the onboard camera 6 is engaged with the engagement portion 47 of the camera holder 46, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, an engagement protrusion provided on the camera mount 46 may be engaged with an engagement portion formed on the onboard camera 6.
Above, although the embodiment to which the invention invented by the present inventors has been applied has been described, the present disclosure is not limited to the description of the embodiment and the drawings constituting a part of the present disclosure. That is, it is needless to say that other embodiments, examples, operation techniques, and the like, which are performed based on the above embodiments, by a person skilled in the art are included in the scope of the present disclosure.
