Description

本発明は、車両用のサンシェードに関し、特に詳述すれば、内張りの表皮材が基板の側縁を覆い、基板の側縁を露出させていないサンシェードに関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle sunshade, and more particularly to a sunshade in which a lining skin material covers a side edge of a substrate and does not expose the side edge of the substrate.

車両のルーフ（屋根）パネルに設けた開口部に、乗員への開放感と換気、採光性能を目的とするサンルーフが配される。
サンルーフは風雨を遮る透光性のガラス板又は合成樹脂板のリッドおよび／又は太陽光を遮断するサンシェードからなる。サンシェードは、開口部の両側に配されたレールに沿って車両の前後方向に摺動自在となっており、一般には、手で動かされる。 A sunroof for the purpose of feeling open to the passengers, ventilation, and daylighting is arranged in an opening provided in the roof (roof) panel of the vehicle.
The sunroof is made of a translucent glass plate or a synthetic resin plate that blocks wind and rain, and / or a sunshade that blocks sunlight. The sunshade is slidable in the front-rear direction of the vehicle along rails arranged on both sides of the opening, and is generally moved by hand.

サンシェードは、硬質の合成樹脂製の基板と基板の内側表面に予め接合（接着或いは溶着）された内張りからなり、内張りは、天井の内装材と同色、好ましくは同一材料の表皮材を有する構成となっている。かくして、サンシェードが開口部を閉じたとき、サンシェードと天井との色感の差がなく、乗員に違和感を与えない。 The sunshade is composed of a hard synthetic resin substrate and a lining previously bonded (adhered or welded) to the inner surface of the substrate, and the lining has a skin material of the same color as the ceiling interior material, preferably the same material. It has become. Thus, when the sunshade closes the opening, there is no difference in color between the sunshade and the ceiling, and the passenger is not discomforted.

前述した如く、サンシェードは、車両の前後方向に摺動自在であり、その側縁はガイドレールに収容されるものの、先端縁はサンシェードを後方へ移動させる間乗員の目にさらされる。
これ迄、基板と内張りの２層が先端縁を介して乗員に視認されることから、見栄えの悪いものとなっている。見栄え改善の一策としてサンシェードの先端縁に内張りと同色のテープ（表皮材）が粘着されている。 As described above, the sunshade is slidable in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, and its side edge is accommodated in the guide rail, but the tip edge is exposed to the eyes of the occupant while the sunshade is moved rearward.
Up to now, the two layers of the substrate and the lining are visually recognized by the occupant through the leading edge, which makes the appearance unsatisfactory. As a measure to improve the appearance, tape (skin material) of the same color as the lining is adhered to the tip edge of the sunshade.

この手段は、先端縁に手や顔が触れた際の安全性、見栄えの点で改善は認められるものの、テープを貼るという工程を要し、又、テープの縁が線として認められるという不具合がある。 Although this method is improved in terms of safety and appearance when touching the tip edge with a hand or face, it requires a step of applying a tape, and the edge of the tape is recognized as a line. is there.

本発明は、前述した如き、テープを貼るという工程、テープの線が出るという不具合を解消させることを解決すべき課題とする。 This invention makes it the problem which should be solved to eliminate the malfunction that the process of sticking a tape and the line | wire of a tape come out as mentioned above.

本発明は、前述した課題を解決するために、少なくとも基板の先端縁を内張りの表皮材が覆うようにカットする手段を用いる。
この手段の採用は、先端縁を表皮材が覆うので見栄えはよく、しかも安全性に優れ、テープを貼る工程を省略できる利点を奏す。 In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention uses means for cutting so that at least the leading edge of the substrate is covered with the lining material.
The use of this means has an advantage that the skin is covered with the skin material, so that the appearance is good, the safety is excellent, and the step of applying the tape can be omitted.

本発明によれば、車両ルーフの開口部に配されかつ前後方向に移動自在なサンシェードであって、該サンシェードが硬質合成樹脂板からなる基板と、基板の内側面に配されかつクッションシートと表皮材とを基板に溶着している内張りとを有し、基板と内張りとの側縁を表皮材が覆うようにカットされていることを特徴とするサンシェードが提供される。
なお、開口にはサンシェードパネルの他に別のパネルが備えられていても良い。この場合、該別のパネルを移動させることにより、車両室内と車両室外とを挿通させて換気や採光を可能としても良く、また、前記別のパネルを透明又は半透明の材質からなるリッドとして、前記開口から採光を可能としても良い。 According to the present invention, a sunshade disposed in an opening of a vehicle roof and movable in the front-rear direction, the sunshade being disposed on a hard synthetic resin plate, an inner surface of the substrate, and a cushion sheet and an outer skin There is provided a sunshade characterized in that it has a lining that welds a material to a substrate, and is cut so that the side edges of the substrate and the lining are covered with a skin material.
In addition to the sunshade panel, another panel may be provided in the opening. In this case, by moving the other panel, the vehicle interior and the exterior of the vehicle interior may be inserted to allow ventilation and daylighting, and the other panel may be a lid made of a transparent or translucent material. It is good also as daylighting is possible from the said opening.

好ましくは、内張りが表皮材とクッションシートとを予め接合させている一体シートである。さらに、基板の成形と同時に内張りを基板に張り付け、次いで前記カットをする。 Preferably, the lining is an integral sheet in which the skin material and the cushion sheet are joined in advance. Further, a lining is attached to the substrate simultaneously with the formation of the substrate, and then the cutting is performed.

より好ましくは、基板の少なくとも先端縁が薄肉部を作る段部を有し、薄肉部がカットされる。 More preferably, at least the tip edge of the substrate has a stepped portion that forms a thin portion, and the thin portion is cut.

本発明によれば、サンシェードの内張りと基板とのカット作業時に基板の先端縁を内張りの表皮材で覆うことができ、作業工程の簡略化が可能となる上に見栄えは向上し、安全性も高い。 According to the present invention, the front edge of the substrate can be covered with the skin material of the lining when the sunshade lining and the substrate are cut, the work process can be simplified, the appearance is improved, and the safety is also improved. high.

図１と図２を参照する。車両のルーフ（屋根）１は開口部２を有し、開口部２の前縁と側縁には図１に示すガイドレール装置３を配す。ガイドレール装置３は、平面視略Ｕ字状にして、前方の電動モータ４とケーブル５をリッド６（図２参照）に結合して、リッド６をガイドレール７に沿って前後進、即ち開口部２の開閉を可能とする。
開口部２の後方には格納部８（図２参照）が設けられ、リッド６及びサンシェード９が格納部８に格納可能とさせる。 Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. A roof (roof) 1 of a vehicle has an opening 2, and a guide rail device 3 shown in FIG. 1 is arranged on the front edge and side edge of the opening 2. The guide rail device 3 is substantially U-shaped in plan view, and the front electric motor 4 and the cable 5 are coupled to a lid 6 (see FIG. 2), and the lid 6 moves forward and backward along the guide rail 7, that is, an opening. The part 2 can be opened and closed.
A storage unit 8 (see FIG. 2) is provided behind the opening 2 so that the lid 6 and the sunshade 9 can be stored in the storage unit 8.

サンシェード９は、ガイドレール７に収納される側縁１０とガイドレール装置３の前部と対向する先端縁１１を有する略方形の板体であり、その前方に手掛け用のくぼみ１２をプレス成形により設ける。
図３に示すように、サンシェード９は、硬質の合成樹脂製の基板１３と、発泡ウレタン等のクッションシート１４、天井の内装材と同色・同材質の表皮材１５とよりなり、クッション材１４と表皮材１５とは予め接着或いは溶着され、一体の内張り１６として用意される。基板１３と内張り１６を型に入れ内張り１６を基板１３に熱溶着させるとともに、設計寸法に切断しかつくぼみ１２や他の必要な加工（たとえばフランジ、ビードや段部）をする。前縁は先端縁１１の寸法より大きめに切断しておく。 The sunshade 9 is a substantially rectangular plate body having a side edge 10 housed in the guide rail 7 and a tip edge 11 facing the front portion of the guide rail device 3, and a depression 12 for a hand is formed by press molding in front of the sunshade 9. Provide.
As shown in FIG. 3, the sunshade 9 is composed of a hard synthetic resin substrate 13, a cushion sheet 14 such as urethane foam, and a skin material 15 having the same color and the same material as the interior material of the ceiling. The skin material 15 is bonded or welded in advance, and is prepared as an integral lining 16. The substrate 13 and the lining 16 are put into a mold and the lining 16 is thermally welded to the substrate 13 and at the same time, the dent 12 or other necessary processing (for example, flange, bead or step portion) is cut to the design dimension. The front edge is cut larger than the dimension of the tip edge 11.

基板１３の前縁に薄肉部１７を作る段部１８をプレス加工により形成する。
図４と図５を参照して、サンシェード９の先端縁１１の加工について以下に述べる。
超音波溶着装置１９のベース２０に、サンシェード９の薄肉部１７を配し、ノズル２１からの超音波により内張り１６と基板１３とをカットしながら、切断面に少なくとも表皮材１５を溶着させて切断面を表皮材１５で覆う。薄肉部１７は、カット作業を容易にするとともに表皮材１５の溶着面を少なくし、作業時間を短縮できる。 A step portion 18 for forming a thin portion 17 is formed on the front edge of the substrate 13 by pressing.
The processing of the leading edge 11 of the sunshade 9 will be described below with reference to FIGS.
The thin portion 17 of the sunshade 9 is disposed on the base 20 of the ultrasonic welding apparatus 19, and the lining 16 and the substrate 13 are cut by ultrasonic waves from the nozzle 21, and at least the skin material 15 is welded to the cut surface and cut. The surface is covered with a skin material 15. The thin portion 17 facilitates the cutting operation and reduces the welding surface of the skin material 15, thereby shortening the operation time.

本発明を図２に示すサンルーフに適用した例を用いて説明したが、タルガトップ、Ｔバールーフやコンバーチブルの如きルーフ開口にも適用できる。 Although the present invention has been described with reference to an example in which the present invention is applied to the sunroof shown in FIG.
