Description
本発明は、樹脂部材の接合方法及びその接合構造に関し、特に第1樹脂部材のスリット孔に第2樹脂部材の接合片を挿入して第2樹脂部材を第1樹脂部材に組付ける際に生じる位置ズレを防止し、第1,第2樹脂部材間の相対位置を適切に保持できるようにしたものに関する。 The present invention relates to a resin member joining method and a joining structure thereof, and particularly occurs when a joining piece of a second resin member is inserted into a slit hole of the first resin member and the second resin member is assembled to the first resin member. The present invention relates to a device that prevents misalignment and can appropriately maintain the relative position between the first and second resin members.
従来、自動車において、樹脂部材に金属部材を締結する場合、タッピングスクリューやボルト等で締結されるが、熱可塑性を有する樹脂部材の比較的低温で溶融し常温で冷却固化する性質を利用して、樹脂部材を熱によってかしめる接合方法が周知である。 Conventionally, when a metal member is fastened to a resin member in an automobile, it is fastened with a tapping screw, a bolt, or the like, but utilizing the property that a resin member having thermoplasticity is melted at a relatively low temperature and cooled and solidified at room temperature, A joining method in which a resin member is caulked by heat is well known.
特許文献1に記載の熱かしめ構造体及び熱かしめ接合方法には、鉄板のスリット穴に熱可塑性樹脂部材のかしめ突起を挿入した後、超音波加熱器でかしめ突起の先端側を加熱しながら加圧することで、鉄板に熱可塑性樹脂部材を溶着する技術が開示されている。
このように、異なる材質からなる部材を溶着すると、リサイクル時に鉄板と樹脂部材とを切断しなければならず、リサイクル性が低下する。リサイクル性を高める為には同じ材質の部材同士を溶着した方が望ましく、樹脂部材同士を溶着する接合方法として、第1樹脂部材のスリット孔に第2樹脂部材の接合片を挿入して接合片を第1樹脂部材に溶着する樹脂部材の接合方法が採用されている。
Thus, if a member made of a different material is welded, the iron plate and the resin member must be cut at the time of recycling, and the recyclability decreases. In order to improve recyclability, it is desirable to weld members of the same material. As a joining method for welding resin members, a joining piece of a second resin member is inserted into a slit hole of the first resin member. A resin member joining method is employed in which the resin member is welded to the first resin member.
ところで、バンパーフェース(第1樹脂部材)にオーバーフェンダー(第2樹脂部材)を接合する場合、バンパーフェースのスリット孔にオーバーフェンダーの接合片を挿入して接合片を溶着すると、バンパーフェースに対するオーバーフェンダーの組付け時にスリット孔と接合片との間で位置ズレが生じやすく、バンパーフェースとオーバーフェンダーとの相対位置を均一に保持することは困難である。それ故、バンパーフェースとオーバーフェンダーとの接合品質が低下する虞がある。 By the way, when the over fender (second resin member) is joined to the bumper face (first resin member), the over fender with respect to the bumper face is welded by inserting the joint piece of the over fender into the slit hole of the bumper face and welding the joint piece. During the assembly, positional displacement is likely to occur between the slit hole and the joining piece, and it is difficult to keep the relative position of the bumper face and the over fender uniform. Therefore, the bonding quality between the bumper face and the over fender may be deteriorated.
本発明の目的は、第1樹脂部材と第2樹脂部材との間の相対位置を適切に保持することができ、接合品質を向上させることができる樹脂部材の接合方法とその接合構造を提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to provide a resin member joining method and a joining structure thereof capable of appropriately holding the relative position between the first resin member and the second resin member and improving the joining quality. That is.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 4, 6, and 7, the left and right ends of the
図8〜図11に示すように、スリット孔12は、前方側の第1孔部12aと、この第1孔部12aの後端に連なり第1孔部12aよりも短い上下長の第2孔部12bとを有する。第2孔部12bの上下長は、第1孔部12aの上下長の約2/3の長さに形成され、第2孔部12bの前後長は、第1孔部12aの前後長の約2倍の長さに形成されている。延出部1bには、第2孔部12bの車幅方向内側において上側に、スリット孔12に隣接する当接部1cが夫々形成され、第2孔部12bの車幅方向外側において上側と下側に、スリット孔12にオーバーフェンダー20の接合片21を挿入した際に接合片21に当接可能な受止め部1d,1eが夫々形成されている。延出部1bにおいて第2孔部12bの後側には、接合部13が車幅方向内側へ僅かに突出するように設けられている。
As shown in FIGS. 8 to 11, the
次に、オーバーフェンダー20について説明する。尚、オーバーフェンダー20はバンパーフェース1において左右両側に設けられるが、ここでは、左側のオーバーフェンダー20について説明する。
図2〜図7に示すように、オーバーフェンダー20は円弧状に形成され、このオーバーフェンダー20は、左側壁部20aと後壁部20bと接合片21とを有する。左側壁部20aの前端にはやや右側に屈曲する屈曲部20cが形成され、屈曲部20cの先端は、バンパーフェース1にオーバーフェンダー20を組付けた状態でバンパーフェース1の屈曲部1aと当接するように構成されている。

As shown in FIGS. 2 to 7, the over
次に、接合片21について説明する。尚、図8、図9、図10、図11に記載の方向を「前後左右」として説明する。
図8、図9に示すように、左側壁部20aの上端部と中央部分と下端部において、左側壁部20aの前端部の内面には、右方に延びる4つの接合片21が夫々設けられ、接合片21は、基部21aと折り曲げ部21bとを有する。折り曲げ部21bは、スリット孔12の第1孔部12aに挿入できるように第1孔部12aよりも小さな上下長に形成されている。接合片21は、折り曲げ部21bの左端部分において折り曲げ方向に弾性変形可能に構成されている。
Next, the joining
As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, four joining
接合片21において折り曲げ部21bの左端部分の上側には切欠き部30が形成され、この切欠き部30の右面には、バンパーフェース1の当接部1cと係合可能な係合部21cが形成され、切欠き部30の左面には受止め部21dが形成されている。基部21aの下側の右面にも同様に受止め部21eが形成されており、スリット孔12の第2孔部12bに接合片21を挿入した際に、接合片21の2つの受止め部21d,21eがバンパーフェース1の受止め部1d,1eに当接可能に構成されている。
A
また、折り曲げ部21bの左端部分の上下長は、第2孔部12bの上下長とほぼ同じ寸法に形成されているため、バンパーフェース1のスリット孔12に接合片21を挿入した状態で、接合片21を第2孔部12b側へ移行させた場合、接合片21の受止め部21d,21eがバンパーフェース1の受止め部1d,1eに夫々当接し、且つ接合片21の係合部21cがバンパーフェース1の当接部1cと係合するようになっている。
In addition, since the vertical length of the left end portion of the
それ故、バンパーフェース1のスリット孔12に接合片21を挿入し、バンパーフェース1の受止め部1d,1eと接合片21の受止め部21d,21eを当接させ且つ接合片21の係合部21cをバンパーフェース1の当接部1cに係合させた状態で、第2孔部12bから車幅方向内側に突出する接合片21の折り曲げ部21bを、バンパーフェース1の接合部13へほぼ直角に折り曲げて、接合片21の折り曲げ部21bをバンパーフェース1の接合部13に溶着手段としての超音波溶着器40(図14参照)で溶着することで、オーバーフェンダー20の前側部分がバンパーフェース1に接合される。
Therefore, the joining
左側壁部20aの上端部と中央部分と下端部分には、右方に凹む3つの凹部22〜24が夫々形成され、凹部22〜24のボルト穴32には、ボルト25〜27が夫々挿通されてオーバーフェンダー20がバンパーフェース1と車体に固定される。後壁部20bの上端部には、バンパーフェース1の後端にボルト結合する為のボルト穴28が形成されており、オーバーフェンダー20の後側部分がバンパーフェース1と車体にボルト結合される。後壁部20bの右端部の前面には、後壁部20bの全長に亙ってマッドガード4が取付けられている。

次に、樹脂部材の接合方法について、図8〜図15に基づいて説明する。
先ず、図8に示すように、バンパーフェース1に当接部1cと受止め部1d,1eとを予め形成すると共に、オーバーフェンダー20の接合片21に係合部21cと受止め部21d,21eとを予め形成しておく。次に、図9、図10に示すように、バンパーフェース1のスリット孔12の第1孔部12aにオーバーフェンダー20の接合片21を挿入し、図11に示すように、バンパーフェース1の延出部1bの右側において、第1孔部12aの上下部分に接合片21の受止め部21d,21eを当接させた状態で、接合片21を第2孔部12bへ移行させ、バンパーフェース1の受止め部1d,1eとオーバーフェンダー20の受止め部21d,21eとを当接させ、接合片21の弾性変形復元力で接合片21の係合部21cをバンパーフェース1の当接部1cに位置付ける。
Next, a method for joining resin members will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, as shown in FIG. 8, an abutting
次に、図12、図13の2点鎖線で示すように、バンパーフェース1の受止め部1d,1eと接合片21の受止め部21d,21eを当接させ且つ接合片21の係合部21cをバンパーフェース1の当接部1cに係合させた状態で、第2孔部12bから車幅方向内側に突出する接合片21の折り曲げ部21bを、バンパーフェース1の接合部13へほぼ直角に折り曲げて、接合片21の折り曲げ部21bをバンパーフェース1の接合部13に接触させる。
Next, as indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIGS. 12 and 13, the receiving
次に、図14に示すように、超音波溶着器40の先端部の溶着ホーンで接合片21の折り曲げ部21bを押圧し、接合片21の折り曲げ部21bをバンパーフェース1の接合部13に溶着する。尚、溶着ホーンはローレットタイプのものが装着され、1ヶ所の溶着に要する超音波の発振時間を約0.75secに設定して行うものとする。すると、図15に示すように、接合片21の折り曲げ部21bとバンパーフェース1の接合部13が軟化し塑性流動することで接合片21の折り曲げ部21bがバンパーフェース1の接合部13に溶着され、優れた接合強度を有する接合部31を形成する。
Next, as shown in FIG. 14, the
次に、以上説明した樹脂部材の接合方法及びその接合構造についての効果について説明する。
このように、バンパーフェース1の受止め部1d,1eと接合片21の受止め部21d,21eを当接させ且つ接合片21の係合部21cをバンパーフェース1の当接部1cに係合させた状態で、スリット孔12の第2孔部12bから突出する接合片21をバンパーフェース1の接合部13へほぼ直角に折り曲げて、接合片21の折り曲げ部21bをバンパーフェース1の接合部13に溶着し、この接合片21とスリット孔12が複数組適当間隔をあけて設けられるので、バンパーフェース1に対するオーバーフェンダー20の組付け時にスリット孔12と接合片21との間で生じる位置ズレを防止することができ、バンパーフェース1とオーバーフェンダー20との間の相対位置を適切(均一)に保持することができる。それ故、バンパーフェース1とオーバーフェンダー20との接合品質が向上する。しかも、バンパーフェース1に対するオーバーフェンダー20の相対位置を保持することができるので組付け性が良い。
Next, effects of the resin member joining method and the joining structure described above will be described.
In this manner, the receiving
また、接合片21は折り曲げ部21bの左端部分において、折り曲げ方向に弾性変形可能に予め構成され、接合片21の弾性変形復元力で接合片21の係合部21cがバンパーフェース1の当接部1cに係合可能に位置付けされるので、バンパーフェース1とオーバーフェンダー20との間の相対位置を安定的に適切(均一)に保持することができる。また、超音波溶着器40で溶着するので、バンパーフェース1にオーバーフェンダー20を確実に溶着することができる。
Further, the joining
