Description

  The present invention belongs to a technical field related to a mounting structure for a vehicle floor mat laid so as to cover the upper surface of a floor panel at the foot of a driver seat of the vehicle.

  In recent years, women and elderly people have come to drive vehicles as usual, and as a result, people of various physiques are driving. On the other hand, in recent vehicles, it is assumed that people of various physiques will drive, but the driving position has not been discussed in detail, and optimization of the driving position for people of various physiques It cannot be said that it is planned. Here, the driving position basically has three requirements, that is, the position of the eye point with respect to the bonnet, and the distance from the base of the driver's foot to the operation pedal (accelerator pedal and brake pedal) (that is, the angle of the joint of the foot). ) And the distance from the driver's body to the steering wheel. In particular, for a relatively small driver such as a woman or an elderly person, a position that satisfies all the above three requirements has not yet been established, and the current situation is that one of the requirements is not satisfied.

  Accordingly, the applicant of the present invention has proposed that the inclined tread portion that becomes higher toward the front in the heel mounting area on which the driver's heel is mounted on the floor panel in order to optimize the driving positions of drivers of various physiques. Has already filed a patent application that proposes the provision of Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-053870.

On the other hand, it is well known that a floor mat is laid on the upper surface of the floor panel at the foot of the driver's seat from the viewpoint of preventing contamination of the upper surface and improving the appearance (for example, see Patent Document 1). Since the saddle placement area on which the floor mat is laid is substantially horizontal, the floor mat usually receives a load from the driver's heel toward the front and tends to shift forward. In order to prevent this, as shown in Patent Document 1, the rear end of the floor mat is fixed to the vehicle body or the seat to restrict the forward displacement of the floor mat.
JP 2004-90831 A

  By the way, even when the inclined tread surface portion is provided in the heel mounting area of the floor panel as described above, it is possible to cover the heel mounting area including the inclined tread surface portion with the floor mat. This is preferable from the viewpoint of preventing contamination of the surface portion.

  However, simply laying a floor mat on the inclined tread surface causes the following problems. That is, the floor mat laid on the inclined tread surface portion tends to shift rearward under a load directed rearward from the ridge placed on the inclined tread surface portion. Even if the rear end of the floor mat is fixed as in the conventional floor mat, it is difficult to prevent the floor mat from shifting backward.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a point, and the object of the present invention is to cover the inclined tread surface portion, which is formed in the saddle placement region of the floor panel and becomes higher toward the front, with a floor mat. In addition, it is intended to prevent the rearward displacement of the floor mat and to prevent the appearance from deteriorating and the dirt on the inclined tread surface due to the displacement.

  In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel in front of the inclined tread surface portion in a state where the inclined tread surface portion is covered.

  Specifically, the invention of claim 1 is directed to a vehicle floor mat mounting structure laid so as to cover the upper surface of the floor panel at the foot of the driver's seat of the vehicle.

  In addition, an inclined tread surface portion that rises toward the front is formed in the saddle placement region where the driver's saddle is placed when the driver sitting on the driver's seat depresses the operation pedal on the floor panel. The floor mat is fixed to the floor panel in front of the inclined tread portion in a state of covering the inclined tread portion.

  With the above configuration, even if a load from the driver's heel to the rear acts on the floor mat on the inclined tread portion, the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel in front of the inclined tread portion. It is possible to prevent the mat from moving backward.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the invention, the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel behind the inclined tread surface portion in addition to the front of the inclined tread surface portion.

  As a result, the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel not only in front of the inclined tread portion but also in the rear, so even if the driver shifts the bag forward in contact with the floor mat on the inclined tread portion, The floor mat will not shift forward. Further, in the case where a horizontal saddle placement area is provided on the rear side of the inclined tread surface portion, even if a saddle is placed in the horizontal saddle placement area, the floor mat does not shift forward. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent the floor mat from shifting forward and backward.

  According to a third aspect of the invention, in the first or second aspect of the invention, the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel on the side of the saddle placement region in addition to the front of the inclined tread surface portion. To do.

  Thus, even when the driver switches the accelerator pedal to the brake pedal, for example, even if the driver shifts the bag in the horizontal direction (vehicle width direction), the floor mat can be prevented from shifting in the horizontal direction. In addition, there is a step between the inclined tread portion and the portion where the inclined tread portion is not formed in the floor panel on the side of the inclined tread portion. By fixing to the floor mat, the floor mat can be laid substantially along the stepped portion (so that no gap is generated between the floor mat and the floor panel in the vicinity of the stepped portion). Improvements can be made.

  In particular, if the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel before and after the inclined tread portion and on the side of the saddle placement region, it is possible to effectively prevent the floor mat from being displaced and the appearance from being deteriorated due to the gap. As a result, the appearance of the floor mat is not deteriorated even if the entire floor mounting area including the inclined tread portion, and thus the entire upper surface of the floor panel at the driver's seat, is covered with a single floor mat. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the appearance of the floor mat from deteriorating and to reduce the cost.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in any one of the first to third aspects of the present invention, an operation pedal mounting base for supporting the operation pedal on the floor panel is provided in front of the saddle placement region in the floor panel. The floor mat is laid so that the front end thereof is in contact with the peripheral edge of the operation pedal mounting base.

  That is, in the case of a so-called organ-type operation pedal, since an operation pedal mounting base for supporting the operation pedal on the floor panel is provided, a floor mat cannot be laid on the lower side of the operation pedal. The appearance of the front end of the floor mat can be improved by laying the floor mat according to the shape of the peripheral edge of the operation pedal mounting base. In addition, the floor mat can be fixed to the periphery of the operation pedal mounting base, so that the appearance of the floor mat due to warping of the end contacting the periphery of the operation pedal mounting base is deteriorated or the operation of the operation pedal is deteriorated. Can be prevented.

  As described above, according to the mounting structure of the vehicle floor mat of the present invention, the floor mat is fixed to the floor panel in front of the inclined tread surface portion while covering the inclined tread surface portion. Even if a load directed backward from the driver's heel acts on the floor mat on the inclined tread portion, it is possible to prevent the floor mat from being displaced rearward. Dirt can be prevented.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1)
FIG. 1 shows a driver's seat foot to which a vehicle floor mat mounting structure according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention is applied. The vehicle floor mat 1 is a driver's seat foot (the foot of a driver seated on the driver seat). ) Of the floor panel 2 (see FIG. 3). The floor mat 1 is a general one, and as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 4, the floor mat 1 includes a base material 1A made of rubber and a raised layer 1B provided on the base material 1A. On the lower surface of 1A, a plurality of protrusions 1C integrally formed with the base material 1A are formed at equal intervals so as not to be displaced with respect to the upper surface of the floor panel 2.

  In FIG. 1, 5 is a suspension type accelerator pedal, 6 is a brake pedal, 7 is a clutch pedal, and 8 is a footrest for placing the driver's left foot (the foot opposite to the operation foot described later). is there. In the present embodiment, the accelerator pedal 5 and the brake pedal 6 (particularly the accelerator pedal 5) are regarded as the operation pedals of the present invention. Since this operation pedal is operated by the right foot of the driver, the right foot is referred to as an operation foot. Depending on the vehicle model, the clutch pedal 7 may not be provided.

  The floor mat 1 extends in the vehicle front-rear direction from a position below the front end portion of the seat cushion of the driver seat to positions below the accelerator pedal 5, the brake pedal 6, and the clutch pedal 7. The floor mat 1 is not laid on the footrest 8, and the front end of the floor mat 1 (the front end on the side opposite to the accelerator pedal 5 (the vehicle left side) in the vehicle width direction) is along the periphery of the footrest 3. Is laid.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a vehicle mat 4 is fixed to the upper surface of the floor panel 2 via an insulator 3, and the upper surface of the vehicle mat 4 is substantially regarded as the upper surface of the floor panel 2. be able to. The floor mat 1 is laid on the vehicle mat 4. As shown in FIG. 4, the vehicle mat 4 includes a base material 4A and a raised layer 4B provided on the base material 4A in the same manner as the floor mat 1, but the thickness of the floor mat 1 (base material 1A). Compared with the raising layer 1B), the thickness of the vehicle mat 4 (including the base material 4A and the raising layer 4B) is relatively thin.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, when the driver depresses the accelerator pedal 5 or the brake pedal 6 with the operating foot on the floor panel 2 (vehicle mat 4), the heel of the operating foot of the driver is placed. An inclined tread surface portion 11 that rises forward is formed in the saddle placement region. The saddle placement areas before and after the inclined tread portion 11 are formed horizontally.

  The saddle placement region refers to all portions where the saddle of the driver's operating foot may be placed when the accelerator pedal 5 or the brake pedal 6 is operated. The range in the vehicle front-rear direction of the saddle placement area is, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, and the front end of the saddle placement area is located below the rear end (vehicle rear side end) of the operation pedal. The rear end of the region is located on the farthest side of the portion on which the tall stature, described later, is placed. Further, the range in the vehicle width direction of the saddle placement region is substantially the same as the range in the vehicle width direction of the inclined tread portion 11 shown in FIG.

  The inclined tread portion 11 is provided in order to optimize the driving positions of drivers of various physiques. In other words, when the driver sitting in the driver's seat changes to a person with a different height, the driver's seat height, arm length, foot length, etc. change in proportion to the height, and this is the case. Thus, the driver's eye point and the operability with respect to the steering handle 20 (see FIG. 5) and the operation pedal also change. Therefore, the driver who newly sits in the driver's seat holds the steering handle 20 in an appropriate state while maintaining the comfortable posture, and at the predetermined optimal depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5, An attempt is made to adjust the front / rear position of the driver's seat so that the front view can be properly secured by bringing the easy-to-press part) into contact with each other in an appropriate state and matching the eye point with the appropriate line L (see FIG. 5).

  There is a possibility that drivers with various heights from those who are less than 150 cm in height to those who are 186 cm or more may sit in the driver's seat. It is necessary to be able to perform the operation. For example, the height of the average height person M (see FIG. 5) who has the most chances to sit in the driver's seat in the United States is set to 173 cm based on the average value of an American male, and the comfort posture of the average height person M is statistically determined. As a result of analysis, the following data was obtained.

  The comfortable posture is a sitting posture that can maintain the sitting posture for a long period of time and is suitable for the operation of the steering handle 20 and the operation pedal. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the ankle angle θ1 of the operating foot for operating the operating pedal is about 85 ° to 95 °, the knee angle θ2 is about 115 ° to 135 °, and the shoulder to shoulder The bending angle θ3 between the upper body and the thigh is about 95 °. In the case of the average height person M, an appropriate angle of the rhino angle θ4, which is an angle formed by the thigh with respect to the horizontal line, is about 1.5 ° to the inclination angle of the seat cushion (not shown) of the driver seat. It is confirmed by an ergonomic experiment that the value is an added value. Furthermore, the elbow angle θ5 at which the steer handle 20 can be properly operated is about 100 ° to 130 °, the side angle θ6 is about 20 ° to 45 °, and the accelerator pedal 5 can be appropriately operated. The possible sole angle, that is, the inclination angle θ7 of the sole with respect to the horizontal line is about 52 °.

  Therefore, the average height person M sets, for example, the ankle angle θ1 to 90 °, the knee angle θ2 to 125 °, the bending angle θ3 to 95 °, and the rhino angle θ4 to 17 °. When seated in the driver's seat, the front height reference position of the seat cushion of the driver's seat, so that the eye point Im of the average height person M can be matched with the appropriate line L inclined forward and downward at an angle of about 8 °, A vertical reference position and a reference inclination angle are set. In the standard sitting state of the average height person M, the elbow angle θ5 and the armpit angle θ6 are set within the above ranges so that the steering handle 20 can be properly gripped, and the heel Km of the operation foot is While being placed at a preset reference position, the toe ball portion of the operating foot is brought into contact with the optimal depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5 in a state where the sole inclination angle θ7 is an appropriate angle (52 °). Be able to.

  In FIG. 5, Hm is the hip point (sitting reference point) of the average height person M seated in the driver's seat. Further, the reference position where the average height person M places the heel Km of the operating foot is set to the rear end position of the inclined tread portion 11.

  When the driver sitting in the driver's seat changes from the average stature M to a short stature S such as a woman, as shown by a one-dot chain line in FIG. While ensuring the operability of the pedal, the seat cushion of the driver's seat is moved forward and the seat cushion installation height is raised so that the eye point Is can coincide with the appropriate line L (the seat cushion moves forward). As the vehicle moves, its installation height increases), and the inclination angle of the seat cushion with respect to the horizon is reduced.

  For example, when a short stature S having a height of 150 cm is seated in the driver's seat, the short stature S has a hip point Hs that is about 105 mm forward and about 25 mm above the hip point Hm of the average height M. The seat cushion is moved forward so as to move, and the inclination angle of the seat cushion is changed so that the rhino angle θ4 is about 10.5 °. As a result, the steering wheel 20 can be gripped in an appropriate state by moving the upper body of the short stature S with shorter hands compared to the average height M, and the low height S having a lower sitting height than the average height M. The eye point Is can be matched with the appropriate line L by moving forward and upward.

  Further, since the operation foot of the short stature S tends to move forward and upward in accordance with the forward and upward movement of the seat cushion, the short stature S sets the knee angle θ2 corresponding to this. By increasing the angle to about 130 °, the ankle angle θ1 is maintained at 90 °, and the sole inclination angle θ7 is maintained at an angle close to the appropriate angle (52 °) while the thumb ball portion of the short stature S is The pedal 5 can be brought into contact with the optimum depression point 5a.

  As shown in FIG. 6, since the distance (about 15.5 cm) from the heel Ks of the short stature S to the thumb ball portion is about 2.5 cm shorter than the same distance (about 18 cm) of the average height M, While maintaining the ankle angle θ1 and sole inclination angle θ7 of the short stature S at the above-mentioned angles, when trying to bring the toe ball part of the operating foot into contact with the optimum depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5, the average height K It is necessary to position it about 2 cm (sin 52 ° × 2.5 cm) above the heel Km of the person M.

  Therefore, if the inclination angle of the inclined tread portion 11 is about 52 ° (this inclined tread portion 11 is indicated by a broken line in FIG. 6), the short stature person S places the heel Ks of the operating foot on the inclined tread portion 11. However, the thumb ball portion of the operating foot can be accurately brought into contact with the optimum depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5 (the operating foot of the short stature S at this time is indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIG. 6). However, when the inclination angle of the inclined tread portion 11 is set to a large value of about 52 °, the heel Ks is likely to slip, and it is difficult to stabilize the mounting state.

  For this reason, in the present embodiment, the inclination angle α of the inclined tread portion 11 is set within a range of 13.5 ° to 23.5 ° (for example, 18.5 °). Accordingly, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 6, the short stature person S increases the sole inclination angle θ7 by about 6 ° from the appropriate angle (52 °) to about 58 °, thereby reducing the heel Ks of the operating foot. The thumb ball portion can be brought into contact with the optimum depression point 5 a of the accelerator pedal 5 while being placed on the inclined tread portion 11.

  The ankle angle θ1 of the operating foot tends to be smaller than 90 ° corresponding to the change in the sole inclination angle θ7 from 52 ° to 58 °, but this corresponds to the increase in the sole inclination angle θ7. By making the knee angle θ2 of the short stature S larger than 130 ° and extending the knee, the ankle angle θ1 can be prevented from becoming smaller than the appropriate range (smaller than 85 °). it can. Furthermore, if the thumb ball portion of the operating foot is positioned slightly below the optimum depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5, the change in the ankle angle θ1 can be more effectively suppressed.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7, for example, when a tall person T having a height of 186 cm sits in the driver's seat, the tall person T has a hip point Ht of 85 mm relative to the hip point Hm of the average tall person M. The seat cushion is moved rearward so as to move backward about 20 mm and the inclination angle of the seat cushion is changed so that the rhino angle θ4 becomes about 20 °. As a result, the steering wheel 20 can be gripped in an appropriate state by moving the upper body of the tall person T having a longer hand than the average tall person M to the rear, and the tall person T having a higher sitting height than the average tall person M. The eye point It can be matched with the appropriate line L by moving backward and downward.

  Further, since the operating foot of the tall person T tends to move backward and downward in accordance with the rearward and downward movement of the seat cushion, the taller person T sets the knee angle θ2 correspondingly. By reducing the angle to about 120 °, the ankle angle θ1 is maintained at 90 °, and the sole inclination angle θ7 is maintained at an angle close to the appropriate angle (52 °) while the thumb ball portion of the tall T is acceleratored. The pedal 5 can be brought into contact with the optimum depression point 5a.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, the distance (about 19.5 cm) from the heel Kt of the tall person T to the thumb ball part is about 1.5 cm longer than the same distance (about 18 cm) of the average height person M. Therefore, if the ankle angle portion of the operating foot is brought into contact with the optimum depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5 while maintaining the ankle angle θ1 and the sole inclination angle θ7 of the tall person T at the above-mentioned angles, 踵 Kt is It is necessary to position it about 1.2 cm (sin 52 ° × 1.5 cm) below the average height M's heel Km (the operation foot of the tall person T at this time is indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIG. 8). However, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 8, the sole inclination angle θ7 of the tall person T is reduced by about 4 ° from the appropriate angle (52 °) to about 48 °, so that 踵 Ks of the tall person T Can be brought into contact with the optimum stepping point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5 in a state where it is placed on the horizontal heel placement region behind the inclined tread portion 11.

  Further, the ankle angle θ1 of the operating foot tends to be larger than 90 ° corresponding to the change of the sole inclination angle θ7 from 52 ° to 48 °, but in response to the decrease in the sole inclination angle θ7. By making the knee angle θ2 of the tall person T smaller than 120 ° and bending the knee, the ankle angle θ1 can be prevented from becoming larger than the appropriate range (greater than 95 °). . Furthermore, if the thumb ball portion of the operating foot is positioned slightly above the optimum depression point 5a of the accelerator pedal 5, the change in the ankle angle θ1 can be more effectively suppressed.

  The operability of the brake pedal 5 is the same as that of the accelerator pedal 6. If the operation of the accelerator pedal 5 can be optimized as described above, the operation of the brake pedal 5 can be optimized.

  In the saddle placement area, the inclined tread portion 11 as described above is formed, and the inclined tread portion 11 is covered with the floor mat 1. For this reason, since the floor mat 1 receives the load which goes back from the cage | basket mounted in the inclined tread part 11, it exists in the tendency which shifts back.

  In order to prevent the rearward movement of the floor mat 1, the floor mat 1 is fixed to the vehicle mat 4 in front of the inclined tread surface portion 11 while covering the inclined tread surface portion 11. The fixed portion in front of the inclined tread portion 11 is referred to as a front side fixed portion 14. Here, since the vehicle mat 4 is fixed to the floor panel 2 via the insulator 3, it can be regarded as being integral with the floor panel 2, so that the floor mat 1 fixed to the vehicle mat 4 is used. Is fixed to the floor panel 2.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the front side fixing portion 14 is set at two places on the left and right sides of the horizontal saddle placement region on the front side of the inclined tread portion 11. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the male button 18a of the snap button 18 is attached and fixed to the lower surface of the floor mat 1 (the lower surface of the rubber-like base material 1A) in the front fixing portion 14 while avoiding the protruding portion 1C. The female button 18b of the snap button 18 is attached and fixed to the upper surface of the vehicle mat 4 (the upper surface of the base material 4A) in the front side fixing portion 14 (the female button 18b in the base material 4A of the vehicle mat 4 is attached and fixed). The raised layer 4B is removed from the portion), and the floor mat 1 is detachably fixed to the vehicle mat 4 by fitting the male button 18a and the female button 18b. Since the structure of the front side fixing portion 14 is the same as that of the rear side fixing portion 15 described later, it will be understood by referring to FIG. 4 in which the rear side fixing portion 15 and its vicinity are enlarged.

  In the present embodiment, the floor mat 1 is fixed to the vehicle mat 4 also behind the inclined tread portion 11 in addition to the front fixing portion 14. The fixed portion behind the inclined tread portion 11 is referred to as a rear side fixed portion 15. The rear side fixing portions 15 are set at two places on the left and right sides of the horizontal saddle mounting area on the rear side of the inclined tread surface portion 11, and are configured with snap buttons 18, similarly to the front side fixing portion 14. By fixing the floor mat 1 in front of and behind the inclined tread portion 11 in this way, even if the driver moves back and forth with the heel in contact with the floor mat 1, it prevents the floor mat 1 from shifting back and forth. Can do. Further, even when the kite is placed in the horizontal kite placement area on the rear side of the inclined tread portion 11, the floor mat 1 does not shift forward.

  The positions of the front and rear fixing portions 14 and 15 are not limited to the inside of the saddle placement area, and may be set outside the saddle placement area. Moreover, the structure of the said front side and rear side fixing | fixed part 14 and 15 is not restricted to the snap button 18, Various deformation | transformation are possible, for example, it fits the male part and female part which are linearly extended. Alternatively, a pin provided on the lower surface of the floor mat 1 may be inserted into the hole provided in the floor panel 2 through the vehicle mat 4 and the insulator 3. In short, it is only necessary that the floor mat 1 can be detachably fixed to the floor panel 2 (vehicle mat 4).

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the floor mat 1 is fixed to the vehicle mat 4 (that is, the floor panel 2) in front of the inclined tread portion 11 with the inclined tread portion 11 covered. Even if a load from the driver's heel to the rear acts on the floor mat 1 above, the rearward displacement of the floor mat can be prevented. Further, since the floor mat 1 is fixed to the floor panel 2 not only in front of but also behind the inclined tread portion 11, the driver has shifted the heel to the front side in contact with the floor mat 1 on the inclined tread portion 11. Even so, the floor mat 1 will not be displaced forward. As a result, it is possible to reliably prevent the floor mat 1 from moving back and forth, thereby preventing the appearance of the floor mat 1 from deteriorating due to the back and forth displacement and the dirt on the inclined tread portion 11.

(Embodiment 2)
9 to 11 show a second embodiment of the present invention (note that the same parts as those in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof is omitted), and the accelerator pedal 5 is of a so-called organ type. This is different from the first embodiment. In FIGS. 10 and 11, the floor mat 1 is the same as that of the first embodiment, although the base material and the raised layer are not distinguished from each other. The same applies to the vehicle mat 4, and the female button 18 b of the snap button 18 is actually attached and fixed to the upper surface of the base material 4 </ b> A of the vehicle mat 4.

  In the present embodiment, an accelerator pedal mounting base 25 for supporting the accelerator pedal 5 on the floor panel 2 is provided in front of the saddle placement region on the floor panel 2, and the accelerator pedal 5 is placed on the accelerator pedal mounting base 25. The rear end portion is supported so as to be rotatable around an axis extending in the vehicle width direction. The floor mat 1 is laid such that its front end (front end on the accelerator pedal 5 side in the vehicle width direction) is in contact with the peripheral edge (rear edge and vehicle left side edge) of the accelerator pedal mounting base 25.

  Also in the present embodiment, the floor mat 1 is fixed to the vehicle mat 4 (that is, the floor panel 2) by the front and rear fixing portions 14 and 15 as in the first embodiment. However, the front side fixing portion 14 is set at a location located in the middle in the vehicle width direction in addition to the two locations as in the first embodiment. The front side fixing portion 14 located in the middle and the front side fixing portion 14 located on the right side of the vehicle (accelerator pedal 5 side) are located at the end portion of the floor mat 1 in contact with the peripheral edge of the accelerator pedal mounting base portion 25. It also serves to prevent the end of the floor mat 1 from warping (see FIG. 11).

  Instead of the front fixing portion 14 located in the middle and the front fixing portion 14 located on the right side of the vehicle, the end of the floor mat 1 that contacts the periphery of the accelerator pedal mounting base 25 is the periphery of the accelerator pedal mounting base 25. It may be fixed. For example, a groove portion is formed on the periphery of the accelerator pedal mounting base portion 25, and the end portion of the floor mat 1 is engaged with the groove portion to be fixed. Even in this case, the floor mat 1 is fixed to the floor panel 2 via the accelerator pedal mounting base 25 in front of the inclined tread portion 11, and the rearward displacement of the floor mat 1 can be prevented. . Moreover, the curvature of the edge part which contact | connects the periphery of the accelerator pedal attachment base 25 in the floor mat 1 can also be prevented.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the floor mat 1 is a vehicle mat on the side of the saddle placement region (two front and rear sides on the side opposite to the accelerator pedal 5) in addition to the front and rear fixing portions 14 and 15. 4 is fixed. This fixed portion on the side of the saddle placement region is referred to as a horizontal fixing portion 16. Similarly to the front and rear fixing portions 14 and 15, the lateral fixing portion 16 also includes a snap button 18, but various modifications can be made as described in the first embodiment.

  By adding the lateral fixing portion 16, the floor mat 1 is formed with the inclined tread portion 11 and the inclined tread portion 11 in the floor panel 2 (vehicle mat 4) on the side of the inclined tread portion 11, as shown in FIG. It is laid so as to substantially follow the step portion between the non-exposed portions.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained by the front and rear fixing portions 14 and 15. Further, the lateral fixing portion 16 prevents the lateral displacement of the floor mat 1 even if the driver shifts the saddle in the vehicle width direction when switching from the accelerator pedal 5 to the brake pedal 6, for example. And the floor mat so as to substantially follow the stepped portion between the inclined tread portion 11 and the portion where the inclined tread portion 11 is not formed in the floor panel 2 (vehicle mat 4) on the side of the inclined tread portion 11. 1 can be laid, and a gap can be prevented from being generated between the floor mat 1 and the floor panel 2 in the vicinity of the stepped portion. As described above, the floor mat 1 is fixed to the vehicle mat 4 before and after the inclined tread portion 11 and on the side of the saddle placement region, thereby effectively preventing the displacement of the floor mat 1 and the appearance deterioration due to the gap. can do.
