DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automobile door trim structure, and more particularly to an automobile door trim structure in which a structure for attaching a pull handle to an armrest portion is devised.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional automobile door trim structure,
The one shown in FIG. 5 is known. According to FIG. 5, an armrest portion c is formed on a door trim main body b for dressing an inner panel a of the door main body of the automobile so as to swell toward the passenger compartment side. Is provided with a pull handle e for opening and closing the door.

That is, the pull handle e has a recessed portion d for the occupant to handle and has an overhanging flange portion f formed thereon. The overhanging flange portion f covers the upper shelf g of the armrest portion c, and the bottom wall h is connected to the bolt i. It is configured to be attached to a mounting seat j that is formed to protrude on the back surface side of the armrest c by using the above.

[0004]

The pull handle e plays the role of a handle for closing the door body by the occupant pulling the handle recess d with his / her hand.

However, the conventional pull handle e is
Since the bottom wall h is only mounted on the mounting seat j of the door trim main body b, when the occupant pulls the pull handle e, it is deformed toward the passenger compartment centering on the mounting part of the pull handle e. If the pulling force e of the pull handle e is too large, there is a possibility that the vicinity of the armrest portion c of the door trim main body b is further deformed toward the passenger compartment.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the foregoing, the present invention provides a door trim for an automobile intended to prevent the pull handle itself or the vicinity of the armrest portion of the door trim body from being deformed by the pulling force of the occupant by strengthening the mounting force of the pull handle. It is intended to provide structure.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a door trim body for dressing a door body.
An automobile door trim structure comprising an armrest portion, a pull handle inserted into an upper shelf of the armrest portion, and the pull handle attached to an attachment seat formed on a door trim body, wherein the attachment seat is a door. It is configured to be mounted on the inner panel that constitutes the main body.

According to the present invention, since the pull handle is attached to the door trim main body and also to the inner panel via the door trim main body, when the occupant pulls the pull handle, the inner panel bears this pulling force. As a result, it is possible to prevent deformation of the pull handle portion and hence the vicinity of the armrest portion of the door trim main body.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a door trim for an automobile adopting an embodiment of the present invention, FIG.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line BB of FIG.

In FIGS. 1 to 3, a door trim main body 2 for dressing the interior side of an inner panel 1 constituting a door main body has an armrest portion 3 formed in a shelf shape and an opening formed below the armrest portion 3. Pocket portion 4 or a speaker grill 5 or the like is provided.

A power window switch unit 6 is mounted on the front side of the upper shelf 3a of the armrest portion 3 on the vehicle body, and a pull handle 10 is provided on the rear side of the vehicle body.
Is installed.

The pull handle portion 10 is provided with a handle recess 10a.
And an overhanging flange portion 11 is formed at the upper end.

The overhanging flange 11 connects the upper shelf 3a of the armrest 3 to the power window switch unit 6.
In addition to being covered and dressed well, it has a structure to support the occupants' arms and the like.

The bottom wall 12 of the pull handle portion 10 has a slightly recessed mounting portion 13 formed therein. The mounting seat portion is formed to protrude from the back surface of the armrest portion 3 with a washer 14 interposed therebetween. 16 and the bolt 15
The pull handle portion 10 is attached to the door trim main body 2 by screwing.

Further, the vertical wall of the mounting seat 16 serves as a clip seat 16a, on which a clip 17 is mounted. The clip 17 is fitted into a clip mounting hole 18 provided in the inner panel 1 to provide a door trim body. 2, a pull handle 10 is attached to the inner panel 1.

With the above structure, the pull handle 10 is attached to the door trim main body 2 and is also attached to the inner panel 1 via the mounting seat 16 of the door trim main body 2, so that the occupant can handle the pull handle. When the inner panel 1 is pulled, the inner panel 1 ultimately bears this pulling force.
Accordingly, deformation of the door trim main body 2 in the vicinity of the armrest portion 3 can be prevented.

The armrest 3 has ribs 7 and 8
Are formed, and the ribs 7 and 8 support the mounting seat 16 from above and below, respectively, to form a reinforcing structure.

FIG. 4 shows another embodiment according to the present invention. According to FIG. 4, the pull handle 10 is mounted on the door trim main body 2 using the bolt 15 in the above embodiment. In this embodiment, a pair of leg-shaped locking pieces 21 are protruded from the bottom wall 12 of the pull handle 10 without using the bolts 15 and the upper surface 16 of the mounting seat 16 is provided.
An engagement hole 16c is formed on the b side, and the locking handle 21 is engaged with the engagement hole 16c, whereby the pull handle portion 10 is mounted on the door body 2.

The bottom wall 1 of the pull handle 10
2 is provided with a rib 22 protruding downward. The rib 22 is in contact with the mounting seat 16, and together with the locking piece 21, when the occupant pulls the pull handle 10, this pulling force is applied. Inner panel 1 through mounting seat 16
Propagation to the side.

According to the present embodiment, the pull handle 10
The pull handle 10 can be mounted on the door trim main body 2 only by engaging the locking piece 21 integrally formed on the bottom wall 12 of the door trim main body 2 with the engaging hole 16c on the door trim main body 2 side. And the number of installation steps can be reduced.

[0022]

As described above, in the present invention,
Since the pull handle is attached to the door trim body and also to the inner panel, if the occupant pulls the pull handle, the inner panel will bear this pulling force, and the pull handle will extend to the door trim body. Deformation near the armrest can be prevented.
