Description

  The present invention is provided in a vehicle in which a back window glass provided with a heat ray is attached to a mounting flange of a window opening of a vehicle body, and a heat ray terminal portion at an inner peripheral edge of the back wind glass is provided at a tip of the mounting flange. The present invention relates to an interior trim of a vehicle which is covered from the inside of a passenger compartment by a trim edge that is disposed oppositely.

A heat ray for removing fog is printed on a back window glass of a vehicle such as an automobile, and a terminal of the heat ray is provided on the inner peripheral edge of the back window glass. A coupler is attached to the terminal, and electricity is transmitted to the heat wire through a heat wire terminal portion (hereinafter referred to as “terminal portion”) composed of the coupler and the terminal. In such a vehicle, recently, in order to improve the appearance, the terminal portion is covered with an interior trim (see Patent Document 1).
Conventionally, in the interior trim described above, the back surface (the surface outside the passenger compartment) of the trim edge portion on the back window glass side is formed in a flat plane.
JP 59-137235 A

The interior trim needs to be positioned as close to the periphery of the back window glass as possible in order to secure the rear view. Accordingly, the trim edge portion on the back window glass side of the interior trim approaches the terminal portion. Then, the terminal portion is covered with a trim edge that is disposed opposite to the tip of the mounting flange. In this mounted state, the terminal portion is located between the trim edge and the tip of the mounting flange.
According to the above-described conventional structure, since the back surface of the trim edge portion on the back window glass side is formed in a flat plane, when the interior trim attachment portion is attached to the vehicle body panel, the trim edge portion is In some cases, the trim edge could come into contact with the terminal portion because it could move freely toward the mounting flange due to elastic deformation caused by the pressing force from the edge.

  Especially in vehicles such as notch-back cars, the interior trim of the rear pillar is attached to the body panel (rear pillar) by inserting a clip on the side of the vehicle, and the operator reaches out from the rear seat side to the rear of the vehicle. It will be a difficult installation work. In addition, the trim end edge approaching the terminal portion is located on the rear side of the vehicle far from the operator, so that the operator's attention cannot be achieved. Then, from the work posture, it is unavoidable to manually strike the interior trim, and the possibility that the trim edge will come into contact with the terminal portion will increase. If the trim edge comes into contact with the terminal during installation, problems such as disconnection of the coupler from the terminal and deformation of the terminal occur. In addition, after the interior trim is attached, the terminal portion is hidden by the interior trim, so visual inspection cannot be performed, and it is difficult to find the above problems. Therefore, the operator has to perform the installation work with sufficient care, and the workability of the installation work is likely to be lowered.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the purpose of the present invention is to provide an operator who pays for the mounting work without damaging the heat ray terminal portion of the inner peripheral edge of the back window glass when mounted on the vehicle body panel. This is to provide an interior trim for a vehicle that can reduce the attention of the vehicle and improve the workability of the mounting work to the vehicle body panel.

The feature of the present invention is that
A trim that is provided in a vehicle in which a back window glass having a heat wire is mounted on a mounting flange of a window opening of a vehicle body, and a heat wire terminal portion of an inner peripheral edge of the back window glass is disposed opposite to a tip of the mounting flange. An interior trim that covers from the inside of the passenger compartment at the edge,
When the mounting portion provided on the trim body portion is mounted to the vehicle body panel from the inside of the passenger compartment, a contact portion that abuts against the tip of the mounting flange and prevents interference between the trim end edge portion and the heat ray terminal portion is provided. The trim body is provided on the outer surface of the trim body. (Claim 1)

  According to this configuration, since the abutting portion is provided in the trim main body portion, when the attachment portion is attached to the vehicle body panel from the inside of the passenger compartment, the operator strongly presses or strikes the interior trim by hand, for example. When attached to the vehicle body panel, the contact portion comes into contact with the tip of the mounting flange. As a result, it is possible to reliably prevent the trim edge portion from moving further to the mounting flange side, and the trim edge portion on the back window glass side from interfering with the heat ray terminal portion. In other words, by projecting the abutting part on the outer surface of the trim body, the interference between the trim edge and the hot-wire terminal can be prevented, and the coupler may be detached from the terminal or the terminal may be deformed. Can be made difficult to occur. (Claim 1)

In the present invention,
When the contact portion is formed in a box shape with the back window glass side open, the following effects can be achieved. (Claim 2)

Since the abutting part is formed in a box shape, the rigidity of the abutting part can be increased, and the trim edge on the back window glass side cannot be moved to the mounting flange side during the above installation. It becomes easier to regulate. Therefore, interference between the trim end edge portion and the hot wire terminal portion can be more reliably prevented.
Further, when the interior trim is molded with resin, the contact portion can be easily molded into a box shape by punching the molding die on the side corresponding to the back window glass.
For example, in a structure in which a contact portion having a simple cross-sectional square shape or round shape that is not box-shaped is protruded from the trim main body portion, a contact portion having a large protrusion amount is required, and reinforcement of the contact portion is required. And since it is necessary to set the draft of the die-cutting in the contact part, the vicinity of the base of the contact part (joint part with the trim main body part) becomes thick. As a result, there is a risk that sink marks due to mold forming may occur on the surface of the interior trim opposite to the base of the contact portion, resulting in a poor appearance.
On the other hand, according to the above configuration of the present invention, since the contact portion can be formed in a box shape to increase the rigidity of the contact portion, the vicinity of the base of the contact portion can be made thin. Thus, even if the amount of protrusion from the trim main body is increased, the surface sink can be made as small as possible. Thereby, an external appearance can be improved and merchantability (commercial value) can be improved. (Claim 2)

In the present invention,
One or two or more ridges projecting toward the tip of the mounting flange are formed on the side wall portion of the contact portion facing the tip of the mounting flange, and the ridge is formed in the thickness direction of the mounting flange. If it is set to a long shape, the following effects can be achieved. (Claim 3)

  When the mounting portion is attached to the vehicle body panel from the inside of the vehicle compartment, the protrusion can be brought into contact with the tip of the mounting flange, so that the contact area of the contact portion with the tip of the mounting flange can be reduced. The impact of the contact can be absorbed by the collapse of the ridge during contact. As a result, it is possible to prevent excessive force from being applied to the trim body when the ridge contacts the tip of the mounting flange, and to prevent deformation and damage of the trim body to the heat wire terminal side. it can. (Claim 3)

In the present invention,
A plurality of the mounting portions are provided in the trim main body,
In a state where the attachment portion is attached to the vehicle body panel, the contact portion is a position on the vehicle front side with respect to the heat ray terminal portion, and more than the attachment portion on the vehicle front side of the heat ray terminal portion. When the abutting portion is provided in the trim main body so as to be located at a position close to the hot wire terminal portion in the vehicle front-rear direction, the following effects can be achieved. (Claim 4)

  When an operator reaches for the rear of the vehicle from the seat side of the vehicle and attaches the interior trim to the vehicle body panel, the operator aims at the mounting portion on the vehicle front side of the hot-wire terminal portion and applies a pressing force for installation. Add. Therefore, for example, the contact portion is located on the vehicle front side of the heat ray terminal portion, and is located farther from the heat ray terminal portion than the mounting portion of the heat ray terminal portion on the vehicle front side. Thus, the force from the operator can be less likely to reach the interior trim portion on the heat ray terminal side than the structure in which the abutment portion is provided on the trim body portion, and the interior trim portion is attached to the mounting flange. It can be made difficult to move to the side (heat wire terminal side). Thereby, interference with a trim edge part and a heat ray terminal part can be prevented in a contact part, and it can make it difficult to produce malfunctions, such as detachment from a terminal of a coupler, and modification of a terminal. (Claim 4)

  According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the attention of the worker who pays for the installation work without damaging the heat ray terminal portion on the inner peripheral edge of the back window glass during the installation to the vehicle body panel. It was possible to provide an interior trim for a vehicle that can improve work efficiency.

In addition, a terminal that is electrically connected to the vertically oriented heat ray portion is attached to the inner peripheral edge 6 on the left and right ends of the back window glass 5. The terminal posture is set downward, and a coupler is inserted into this terminal. The terminal and the coupler constitute a hot wire terminal section 7 (hereinafter referred to as “terminal section 7”). The terminal portion 7 extends downward and is elongated in the vertical direction. When the hot wire is energized through the terminal portion 7, the hot wire generates heat and the fogging of the back window glass 5 is removed.

An interior trim 2 is provided to cover the inner surface 4N of the vehicle body panel portion 4 on the back window glass 5 side and the terminal portion 7 from the inside of the passenger compartment. The interior trim 2 is a plate-shaped (more specifically, thin-plate-shaped) resin molded product having flexibility, and is gentle corresponding to the inner surface 4N of the vehicle body panel portion 4 as shown in FIGS. It is bent in multiple directions in an arc. As shown in FIG. 5, the trim edge portion 10 on the back window glass 5 side of the interior trim 2 faces the tip end 9 </ b> E of the mounting flange 9 from the lower side of the extending direction H of the flange 9. In this way, the trim end edge portion 10 disposed to face the front end 9E of the mounting flange 9 covers the terminal portion 7 from the inside of the passenger compartment.
FIG. 5 shows a cross section of the abutting portion 17 described later, and the terminal portion 7 not present in this cross section is also drawn for convenience of explanation.

  A plurality of attachment portions 11 </ b> A to 11 </ b> F attached to the vehicle body panel portion 4 are distributed on the trim main body portion 12. The attachment portions 11A to 11F include a protruding portion 13 having a U-shaped cross section that protrudes from the back surface 12A that is the vehicle compartment outside of the trim main body portion 12, and a clip seat 14 provided at the protruding end portion of the protruding portion 13 ( (See FIGS. 2, 3 and 6). The clip seat 14 is formed with a notch 16 (see FIG. 2) for receiving the clip 15 from the lateral direction. The clip 15 is inserted into clip holes 29 </ b> A to 29 </ b> F (see FIG. 1) formed in the vehicle body panel portion 4. As shown in FIG. 5, the edge 10E of the trim edge 10 that faces the back window glass 5 is close to the inner surface 5N of the back window glass 5 and extends along the inner surface 5N in the vehicle vertical direction.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a contact portion 17 that protrudes from the back surface 12 </ b> A of the trim main body portion 12 toward the tip end 9 </ b> E of the mounting flange 9 is provided, and this contact portion 17 is opened on the back window glass 5 side. It is formed in a box shape. In addition, a plurality of ridges 23 projecting toward the tip 9E of the mounting flange 9 are formed on the first side wall portion 22 which is a surface facing the tip 9E of the mounting flange 9 of the contact portion 17. Each protrusion 23 has an elongated shape in the thickness direction of the mounting flange 9. Reference numeral 27 denotes a pair of second side wall portions that are opposed to each other in the direction in which the ridges 23 are arranged, and that is continuous to both ends of the first side wall portion 22, and 28 is a bottom wall portion that is continuous to the first side wall portion 22 and the second side wall portion 27. is there. The bottom wall portion 28 and the second side wall portion 27 protrude from the trim main body portion 12 so as to be orthogonal to the trim main body portion 12. Further, in the cross section in the thickness direction of the back window glass 5, the first side wall portion 22 is inclined with respect to the trim main body portion 12 and is orthogonal to the extending direction H of the mounting flange 9.
