It is moved forward from the first position to the second position within 0, and its tip 38b is pushed into the base material opening 34 of the base material 12. As a result, the enlarged bottom portion 32 comes into the space portion 46 through the base material opening portion 34 and expands again into the original shape in the space portion 46 due to an appropriate amount of air remaining inside. As a result, a state in which the width is larger than the base material opening 34 is obtained. Note that the enlarged bottom portion 32 corresponds to the space portion 46.
The compressed air may be sent from a pneumatic source through the air flow hole 38a in order to surely return to the original shape in the inside.

FIG. 8 is an explanatory cross-sectional view showing a process of clamping the enlarged bottom 32 which is performed after the expansion of the enlarged bottom 32 is completed. While the enlarged bottom 32 is in the expanded state shown in FIG. 7, the second slider 44 is moved forward from the first position to the second position, and the support surface 44a is pressed against the enlarged bottom 32. . As a result, the enlarged bottom portion 32 is sandwiched between the tip end 38b of the first slider 38 and the support surface 44a of the second slider 44, and is crushed greatly from the base material opening portion 34 to be deformed into a flat plate shape. Therefore, the folded terminal portion 32 a of the enlarged bottom portion 32 is positioned so as to wrap around the back side of the base material 12. The internal space 4 of the enlarged bottom 32
The air remaining at 0 is pushed out of the mold through the air flow holes 38a and does not hinder the deformation of the enlarged bottom 32.

FIG. 9 shows a state in which the foam 16 is interposed between the two members 12 and 14 by foaming the foaming liquid in the space defined between the skin material 14 and the base material 12. It is explanatory sectional drawing which shows. For example, prior to closing the first foaming mold 36 and the second foaming mold 42, after injecting a required amount of foaming stock solution (urethane stock solution) onto the skin material 14 set in the first foaming mold 36, By lowering the second foaming mold 42 with respect to the first foaming mold 36 and closing the mold, the foaming reaction of the foaming stock solution proceeds between the skin material 14 and the base material 12, and the two members 12, 14 A foam 16 can be interposed between them. Since the gap A is defined between the outer surface of the concave portion 30 and the end of the base material opening 34 as described above, a part 16a of the foam 16 that expands and expands enters the gap A. Then, the base material 12 is bonded to the concave portion 30 and the enlarged bottom portion 32.

When the cure time suitable for the foaming stock solution has elapsed, the second foaming mold 4
2, the foaming molds 36 and 42 are opened, and then the molded instrument panel 10 having a three-layer structure is released. In the instrument panel 10 immediately after the molding, the enlarged bottom 32 remains as the bottom of the opening 20 as shown in FIG. Therefore, as shown in FIG.
Terminal portion 3 of the enlarged bottom portion 32 wrapped around the back
2a, the enlarged bottom portion 32 is trimmed.
The unnecessary portion 48 is cut off to form the opening 20 through. At this time, the skin opening 33 formed in the skin material 14 is formed at a position extending from the base material opening 34 to the back side of the base material 12, and the instrument panel 10
It is not visible at all from outside. Moreover, the skin opening 33
Is stably adhered to the back surface of the base material 12 along the base material opening portion 34 by the part 16a of the foam 16 that has entered the gap A and solidified.

As described above, in the instrument panel 10 formed by the above-described forming method, as shown in FIG.
The skin opening 33 formed in the concave portion 30 is connected to the base material 1 through a base material opening 34 that forms a part of the opening 20.
Because it will be established at the position that goes around the back of 2,
The terminal portion of the skin opening 33 is not visible at all from the opening 20. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 12, the inner surface of the opening 20 formed in the instrument panel 10
The entire surface is covered with the concave portion 30 of the skin material 14, and can be used as an air outlet without mounting the frame member 54. Also, in the case where an air outlet having a wind direction adjusting function is installed in the opening 20, it is not necessary to provide a bezel for covering the skin end in the air outlet, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

Further, as described above, the end portion of the skin opening 33 formed in the concave portion 30 of the skin material 14 constituting a part of the opening 20 is formed between the base material 20 and the skin material 14. Solidified through the gap A defined in the foam 1
6 along the base material opening 34 by the part 16a of the base material 1.
2 is stably adhered to the back surface. Therefore, it is possible to preferably prevent the terminal portion of the skin opening 33 from rolling up inside the opening 20 due to aging.

Further, the skin opening 3 in the skin material 14
Since the end portion of the air guide duct 60 closely contacts the end portion of the air guide duct 60 to the back side of the base material 12 through the base material opening portion 34,
Can have a function as a so-called sealing material.

FIG. 13 is an explanatory sectional view showing an example in which the opening 20 formed by the molding method is used as an installation port for a switch 56. Also in this case, since the skin opening 33 is formed at a position wrapping around the back side of the base material 12, there is no need to separately provide a bezel or a frame member for covering the terminal portion of the skin opening 33. Therefore,
By simply screwing a switch substrate 58 provided with an operation unit of the switch 56 to the boss 50 provided on the base member 12, the operation unit can be exposed to the opening 20 and the configuration of the switch 56 is simplified. As a result, cost reduction can be expected.

In the above-described embodiment, the instrument panel 10 is exemplified as a vehicle interior member having a three-layer structure, but a console box and other members are also applicable. In addition, the opening 2 provided in the vehicle interior member 10
Of course, 0 can be used for various uses other than the air outlet and the switch installation port.

[0027]

As described above, according to the vehicle interior member of the present invention, the skin opening provided in the skin material forming a part of the opening forms a part of the opening. Since it is configured to be opened at a position wrapped around the back side of the base material through the base material opening, the terminal portion of the skin opening is not visually recognized at all from the opening. Therefore, it is not necessary to attach a frame member for covering the terminal portion of the skin opening to the opening, and there is an advantageous effect that cost can be reduced. Also, since the terminal portion of the skin opening is stably adhered to the back surface of the base material by a part of the foam, there is a disadvantage that the terminal portion of the skin opening is rolled up to the inside of the opening with aging. Can also be suitably prevented.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a vehicle interior member such as an instrument panel having a foam interposed between a base material and a skin material. When forming an opening for various uses such as a member installation port and the like, since the skin opening formed in the skin material can be opened at a position wrapped around from the base material opening to the back side of the base material, In the opening, not only the terminal portion of the skin opening does not reach but also is not visually recognized. Therefore, there is no need to install a frame member for covering the skin terminal in the opening, and there is an advantage that the cost can be reduced by reducing the number of parts and the number of work steps.
