A section 9 is provided. The eaves main body 3 is made of, for example, a synthetic resin having a light-shielding property such as a colored resin, and the collar portion 2
It is integrally molded with.

The mounting member 20 is formed by bending a band-shaped metal plate, and has an engaging portion 10 that is engaged with the window frame 6 and a tip portion 11 of the rivet 4 that is inserted into the rivet insertion hole 12 and protrudes from the eaves main body 3. A rivet insertion hole 13 for inserting the rivet and an engaging portion 15 formed so as to be capable of fitting with the locking portion 9 of the eaves main body 3 are provided. The engaging portion 10 is provided at one end of the mounting member 20, and is formed in a substantially U-shaped cross section so that it can be engaged with the inner edge 6b of the window frame. The engaging portion 15 is provided at the other end of the mounting member 20, and a protruding piece protruding from the outermost edge portion 18 is bent toward the eaves main body 3 side to be formed in a convex shape.

The rivet 4 is an expandable resin rivet having a tip 11 formed in a crack. The rivet 4 is a rivet insertion hole 12 of the eaves main body 3 which is axially aligned
A cap 16 with a washer for fixing the eaves main body 3 and the mounting bracket 20 in close contact with each other is attached to the tip portion 11 of the rivet 4 which penetrates the rivet insertion hole 13 of the mounting bracket 20. In FIG. 1, 23 is a door glass run and 24 is a door glass.

In order to attach the side visor 1a having the above structure to the window frame 6, first, the mounting bracket 20 is attached to the eaves main body 3.
The side visor 1a is fixed and the side visor 1a is assembled, and then the side visor 1a is attached to the window frame 6 of the automobile. In the assembly work,
Insert the rivet 4 into the rivet insertion hole 12 of the eaves body 3,
The step of inserting the tip 11 protruding from the eaves main body 3 into the rivet insertion hole 13 of the mounting member 20 is performed. At this time, the concave locking portion 9 of the eaves main body 3 and the convex engagement portion 15 of the mounting metal fitting 20 engage with each other in an uneven manner, and the mounting metal fitting 20 is prevented from rotating around the axis of the rivet 4 with respect to the eaves main body 3. To be done. Next, the step of mounting the cap 16 on the tip portion 11 protruding from the mounting member 20 is performed, and the assembly work is completed.

Following the assembling work, in the attaching work, the engaging portion 10 of the attaching metal fitting 20 fixed to the eaves main body 3 is sandwiched and engaged with the inner edge 6b of the window frame of the automobile, and the collar body 2 is attached with the double-sided adhesive tape 7. The step of attaching to the window frame flat portion 6a of the window frame 6 is performed,
The attachment work for attaching the side visor 1a to the window frame 6 is completed.

According to this side visor 1a, since the eaves main body 3 is provided with the concave engaging portion 9 and the mounting metal fitting 20 is provided with the convex engaging portion 15 which engages with the engaging portion 9, the engaging is performed. Due to the concavo-convex engagement between the portion 9 and the engaging portion 15, it is possible to perform an assembly work for fixing the mounting member 20 to the eaves main body 3 in a state in which rotation around the rivet axis is stopped. Therefore, the side visor 1a can be attached to the window frame 6 in a state where the attachment fitting 20 is held in a fixed position with respect to the eaves main body 3, and the assembling work and the attaching work of the side visor 1a are facilitated in each step.

Further, the engaging portion 15 of the mounting member 20 is formed in a convex shape, and the engaging portion 9 of the eaves main body 3 is formed in a concave shape that fits into the engaging portion 15, and the engaging portion 15 and the engaging portion are engaged. Since the side visor 1a is assembled by fitting with 9 and 9, the rotation stopping force of the mounting bracket 20 with respect to the eaves main body 3 can be further improved. Further, since the cap 16 is attached to the tip portion of the rivet, it is possible to cover up the cracked shape of the tip portion to improve the appearance and prevent the finger from coming into contact with the tip of the tip portion.

FIG. 3 shows a modification of the first embodiment. Here, the arrangement position of the engaging portion 15 in the mounting bracket 20 of the side visor 1a is defined between the rivet insertion hole 13 and the outermost edge portion 18, and the concave engaging portion 9 and the convex engaging portion 9 are provided. 15 and 15 are provided so that they can be engaged and recessed. With this configuration, the same operational effect as that of the side visor 1a can be obtained.

Next, FIGS. 4 and 5 show a second embodiment of an automobile side visor according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as a side visor in the present embodiment). In this side visor 1b, an eaves main body 3 formed in a long strip shape along a window frame plane portion 6a of an automobile, a collar body 2 connected along an upper end edge of the eaves main body 3, and an eaves main body 3 are provided. It is composed of a mounting bracket 20 for mounting on the window frame 6. A cylindrical projection 17 is provided on the upper inner side of the eaves main body 3 so as to project substantially perpendicularly to the inner surface of the eaves main body 3, and below the projection 17 is a concave locking formed in the shape of a horizontal rectangular groove. A section 9 is provided. The eaves main body 3 is integrally formed with the collar portion 2 and the protrusions 17.

The mounting bracket 20 has a fitting portion 10 for fitting to the window frame 6 and a projection body insertion hole 14 for inserting the projection body 17.
And a convex engaging portion 15 formed to be engageable with the locking portion 9 of the eaves main body 3. Other configurations are the same as those of the side visor 1a, and are attached to the window frame 6 of the automobile by the same steps.

According to this side visor 1b, since the eaves main body 3 and the protrusion 17 are integrally formed, the side visor 1b
A part corresponding to the rivet 4 of a is unnecessary, and a part of the assembly work can be omitted to simplify the assembly work. Other functions and effects are similar to those of the first embodiment.
