Description

  The present invention relates to a pipe fixing member, and more particularly to a pipe fixing member for fixing a hydraulic pipe, a pneumatic pipe or the like (hereinafter simply referred to as a pipe) routed to each part of a vehicle to the vehicle body side.

  In recent years, various types of equipment mounted on vehicles have been rapidly increasing in order to meet demands from improvements in vehicle performance and convenience or environmental measures. Some of these equipments are connected with piping for supplying hydraulic oil and air, for example, and inevitably, a large number of piping is routed around each part of the vehicle. These pipes are appropriately fixed to a vehicle body frame or the like by a pipe fixing member, thereby preventing troubles such as breakage and noise due to contact between the pipes or contact with other members.

As an example of such a pipe fixing member, the technique of Patent Document 1 can be cited. The pipe fixing member disclosed in Patent Document 1 is configured such that the other end side can be arbitrarily opened and closed by connecting one end side of a synthetic resin base member and a lid member with a hinge shaft. . A pair of pipe receiving portions having a semicircular cross section are recessed in the mating surfaces of the base member and the lid member, and pin holes are formed so as to penetrate the base member and the lid member vertically.
When the pipe to be fixed is placed in both pipe receiving parts on the base member side and the lid member is closed, the pipe receiving parts on the base member side and the lid member side correspond to each other to form a circular hole, and the pipe is inside Is retained. And after arrange | positioning a piping fixing member with the piping to the predetermined position on a vehicle body frame, a piping fixing member is attached to a vehicle body frame with a fixing pin through a pin hole.

Thus, although piping is hold | maintained in the pipe receiving part of a piping fixing member, since the piping fixing member is made from a synthetic resin, the shift | offset | difference of the longitudinal direction and rotation direction of piping cannot be prevented. Moreover, there is a possibility that abnormal noise may be generated due to the rattling of the pipe in the pipe receiving portion. Therefore, in the technology of Patent Document 1, the following measures are taken.
First, a convex portion is formed on one side in the pipe receiving portion, and a narrow portion is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the pipe so as to correspond to the convex portion. The engagement between these convex portions and the narrow portion prevents the displacement in the longitudinal direction and the rotational direction of the pipe. Further, an elastic pressing piece projects from one side of the pipe receiving portion, and this pressing piece presses the outer peripheral surface of the pipe to prevent the pipe from rattling.

JP2012-233491A

However, since the pipe fixing member is made of a hard synthetic resin in order to ensure rigidity, the technique of Patent Document 1 described above employs a structure in which individually molded base members and lid members are connected by hinge shafts. I must. Therefore, the molding process and the assembling process are time-consuming and eventually increase the manufacturing cost.
In addition, since the base member and the lid member are made of a hard synthetic resin, it is difficult to engage the convex part and the narrow part on the pipe side without any gaps, and the displacement in the longitudinal direction and the rotational direction of the pipe is difficult. Could not be surely prevented. Further, the elasticity of the pressing piece is used to prevent the backlash of the pipe within the pipe receiving portion, but the backlash cannot be reliably prevented because only one point of the outer peripheral surface of the pipe is pressed with the pressing piece. Therefore, the technique of Patent Document 1 still has room for improvement in terms of binding force on the piping.

On the other hand, in order to prevent displacement in the longitudinal direction and the rotational direction of the pipe, it is necessary to take a measure for forming a narrow portion not only on the pipe fixing member but also on the pipe side, so that the manufacturing process of the pipe becomes complicated. There is also. In addition, the position of the narrow portion and the holding position of the pipe by the pipe fixing member are determined at the manufacturing stage of the pipe. For this reason, in the subsequent pipe assembly process, it is difficult to finely adjust the holding position of the pipe by the pipe fixing member according to the positional relationship between the pipe fixing member and various equipment, and it is difficult to perform the pipe assembly work. There is also.
The present invention has been made to solve such problems, and the object of the present invention is that it can be manufactured at a low cost and the pipe can be fixed with sufficient restraining force without requiring processing on the pipe side. An object of the present invention is to provide a pipe fixing member capable of easily carrying out the assembly process without limiting the holding position with respect to the pipe.

  In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention is integrally formed with an elastic body so that one end sides of a pair of opening and closing portions are connected to each other, and both opening and closing portions can be opened and closed by functioning one side end as a hinge portion. The main body and a pipe receiving part that is recessed in the inner surface of both opening and closing parts of the main body, forms a plurality of circular holes corresponding to each other with both opening and closing parts closed, and can arrange the pipes inside each And a pair of reinforcing plates respectively attached to both opening and closing parts so as to cover the outer surfaces except the hinge parts of both opening and closing parts of the main body, and formed so as to penetrate both the opening and closing parts and both reinforcing plates of the main body, respectively. And opening and closing the pipes in each pipe receiving part of the main body and closing the both opening and closing parts, receiving the fastening force of the fastening members inserted into the holes and attaching to the vehicle body side, and both opening and closing parts The piping in the pipe receiving part due to the elasticity of Characterized by being adapted to hold.

The fastening force of the fastening member is equalized by the reinforcing plate and acts on the opening / closing part. Since the pipe contacts the pipe receiving part of the opening / closing part over the entire circumference and receives the restraining force due to the elasticity of the opening / closing part over the entire circumference, the pipe is firmly held in each pipe receiving part. Therefore, the pipe can be fixed with a sufficient restraining force. In addition, since the pipe is held by the elasticity of both opening and closing parts in this way, no shape countermeasure is required on the pipe side. For this reason, it is possible to avoid the adverse effects of complicating the manufacturing process of the piping, and when fixing the piping, the holding position of the piping by the piping fixing member can be finely adjusted as necessary, and the assembling process can be easily performed. Can do.
And the piping fixing member can be opened and closed by making the rear end side of the main body made of an elastic body function as a hinge part, and the outer surface of the opening and closing part requiring rigidity is simply reinforced by a reinforcing plate. Because of its simple structure, it can be manufactured at low manufacturing costs.

As another aspect, a regulating portion may be formed on the opposite hinge portion side of both opening and closing portions so as to be adjacent to each other in the longitudinal direction of the pipe with both opening and closing portions closed.
When receiving the external force in the longitudinal direction from the pipe, the restricting portions are adjacent to each other and the displacement in the longitudinal direction is restricted, so that the displacement of the pipe can be suppressed.
As another aspect, the reinforcing plate may cover the outer surface of the opening / closing part and may extend to the anti-hinge part side to cover the end surface of the opening / closing part.
When the bolt is fastened, the opening / closing portion can be prevented from bulging to the anti-hinge portion side, and the restraining force on the pipe can be further increased.

As another aspect, a notch may be formed in the hinge portion of the main body so as to be adjacent to the pipe receiving portion of the opening / closing portion.
Since the notch is crushed at the time of fastening with a bolt and functions as a fastening allowance, the restraining force on the pipe can be further increased. Moreover, since flexibility is given to the hinge portion, both the opening and closing portions can be easily opened and closed, and damage to the main body can be prevented.
As another aspect, a caulking portion that is hooked by a latching recess formed in the main body portion and fixes the reinforcing plate to the main body portion may be integrally formed on one side of the reinforcing plate.
Compared to fixing with an adhesive or the like, the pipe fixing member can be easily assembled, and troubles such as peeling of the bonded portion can be avoided in advance.

As another aspect, the holes of the reinforcing plate may be formed as long holes extending in the direction in which the pipes are arranged.
The fastening member can be easily inserted into the hole even if the fixing position of the reinforcing plate with respect to the opening / closing portion is slightly deviated, and as a result, the assembly work of the pipe can be easily performed.
As another aspect, a collar may be provided in the holes of both opening / closing portions of the main body.
The pipe can be prevented from being damaged due to excessive bolt tightening, and the pipe fixing member can be firmly attached to the vehicle body.

  According to the present invention, the pipe can be fixed with a sufficient restraining force without being processed on the pipe side and can be manufactured at a low cost, and the assembly process can be easily performed without limiting the holding position with respect to the pipe. Can do.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of a pipe fixing member embodying the present invention will be described.
1 is a perspective view showing a pipe fixing member of the present embodiment, FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing the pipe fixing member, FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line III-III in FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a line IV-IV in FIG. It is sectional drawing. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the left-right direction in FIG. 1 is defined as front and rear, the depth direction is defined as left-right, and the up-down direction is defined as up-down.
The pipe fixing member A as a whole is based on the fastening force of the pair of metal reinforcing plates 3 and the bolts 4 that act on the body 1 by equalizing the fastening force by the main body 1, the bolt 4 (fastening member) made of rubber. It consists of a pair of metal collars 5 (holes) for preventing damage to the piping.

The main body 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and is divided into two vertically by leaving a rear end side by forming a slit 8 horizontally from the front. Hereinafter, the upper and lower parts of the main body 1 are referred to as an opening / closing part 6, and the rear end side connecting these opening / closing parts 6 is referred to as a hinge part 7. Due to the formation of the slits 8, the inner side surfaces 6 a of the both opening / closing portions 6 are opposed to each other with a predetermined interval, and the upper surface or the lower surface of the both opening / closing portions 6 is referred to as the outer surface 6 b with respect to the inner surface 6 a.
The main body 1 is integrally vulcanized and molded with rubber so that both the opening and closing portions 6 shown in the drawings are closed, and this shape is maintained in a state where no external force is applied, while the hinge portion 7 is elastically deformed while both are elastically deformed. The opening / closing part 6 is configured to be arbitrarily opened and closed. However, it is not restricted to this, For example, you may vulcanize-mold the main body 1 in the shape where both the opening-and-closing parts 6 were opened.

A pair of front and rear pipe receiving portions 9 having a semicircular cross section are respectively provided in the inner side surfaces 6a of both opening / closing portions 6 so as to be recessed. Each pipe receiving part 9 extends over the entire left and right direction of the opening / closing part 6, and when the both opening / closing parts 6 are closed, the upper and lower pipe receiving parts 9 correspond to each other in the front-rear direction to form a pair of circular holes. It has become. The inner diameter of the formed circular hole is set slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe 2 to be fixed, so that the pipe 2 can be restrained and held by the elasticity of the opening / closing part 6.
In the present embodiment, in order to fix a pair of pipes 2 having different outer diameters, the inner diameters of the left and right circular holes are made different. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be arbitrarily changed according to the outer diameter of the pipe 2. Is possible.

  A notch 11 is formed in the hinge portion 7 so as to be adjacent to the rear pipe receiving portion 9, and the notch 11 has a groove shape extending in the entire left and right direction of the hinge portion 7. In this embodiment, the pipe receiving part 9 is formed vertically symmetrically across the inner side surface 6a. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the inner side surface 6a is offset up or down to make the pipe receiving part 9 vertically asymmetric. Also good.

The opening / closing portions 6 are formed with press-fitting holes 12 having the same axial center so as to vertically pass through the portion between the front and rear pipe receiving portions 9, and the collars 5 described above are respectively inserted into these press-fitting holes 12. It is arranged.
Specifically, the collar 5 has a cylindrical shape with a predetermined thickness, the vertical dimension is equal to the vertical dimension of the opening / closing part 6, and the outer diameter is set slightly larger than the inner diameter of the press-fitting hole 12. For this reason, the respective collars 5 are press-fitted into the press-fitting holes 12 and are prevented from falling off due to the elasticity of the opening / closing part 6, and the inner ends thereof are opposed to each other at a predetermined interval, and the outer ends (upper end or lower end) are It is exposed from the outer surface 6 b of the opening / closing part 6.

The reinforcing plates 3 described above are disposed on the outer side surfaces 6b of the two opening / closing portions 6 of the main body 1, respectively. The left-right width of the reinforcing plate 3 is set equal to the left-right width of the opening / closing part 6. In addition, the reinforcing plate 3 covers the outer surface 6b of the opening / closing part 6 except for the hinge part 7 so that the elastic deformation of the hinge part 7 is not hindered, and the left end extends forward (on the anti-hinge part 7 side) at a right angle. The front end face 6c of the opening / closing part 6 is covered by being bent.
Long holes 3a (holes) are formed in the upper and lower reinforcing plates 3 at positions corresponding to the collars 5, respectively. The long hole 3 a is long in the front-rear direction (in the direction in which the pipes 2 are arranged), the left-right width thereof is equal to the inner diameter of the collar 5, and the front-rear length is set slightly larger than the inner diameter of the collar 5.

At the positions corresponding to the left and right sides of the long hole 3a of the reinforcing plate 3, the crimping portions 3b are integrally formed respectively. The caulking portion 3b of each reinforcing plate 3 is bent at a right angle downward or upward along the left and right side surfaces of the opening / closing portion 6, and the end portions thereof are bent in the approaching direction so that the inner side surface 6a of the opening / closing portion 6 is obtained. It is latched by the latching recessed part 6d formed in this. Thereby, the reinforcement plate 3 is being fixed with respect to each opening-and-closing part 6 so that attachment or detachment is impossible.
As is apparent from the drawings, in the present embodiment, the upper and lower reinforcing plates 3 are formed in the same shape to share components. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the upper and lower reinforcing plates 3 may have different shapes.

Next, the assembly work of the pipe 2 using the pipe fixing member A configured as described above will be described.
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a fixed state of the pipe 2 by the pipe fixing member A, and FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing a fixed state of the pipe 2 by the pipe fixing member A.
As shown in FIG. 6, a pair of pipes 2 are disposed along the side surface of the vehicle body frame 14, and for example, a hydraulic pressure supply source and various equipments are connected via the pipes 2. A pipe fixing member A is used to fix these pipes 14, and bolt holes 14a (shown in FIG. 5) for attaching the pipe fixing member A are provided in advance in the body frame 14.

  First, the both opening / closing parts 6 of the pipe fixing member A are gripped and opened against the elasticity of the hinge part 7 to expose the pipe receiving parts 9 on the respective inner side surfaces 6a. When the pipes 2 are arranged in the pipe receiving parts 9 before and after the one opening / closing part 6 and the hand is released from the other opening / closing part 6, both the opening / closing parts 6 are closed by the elasticity of the hinge part 7. Return to the original shape. As a result, the pipe receiving parts 9 before and after the two opening / closing parts 6 form circular holes corresponding to each other, and the pipes 2 are respectively arranged in these circular holes. At this time, the longitudinal direction and rotational position of each pipe 2 with respect to the pipe fixing member A are roughly matched.

In this state, when both the opening and closing parts 6 of the pipe fixing member A are clamped in the closing direction, a restraining force acts on the pipe 2 in the pipe receiving part 9 to prevent the dropout and displacement. For this reason, it becomes possible to carry it arbitrarily while maintaining the current positional relationship of the pipe 2 with respect to the pipe fixing member A.
Then, after the pipe fixing member A is arranged at the position of the bolt hole 14 a on the vehicle body frame 14 together with the pipe 2, the bolt 4 is inserted so as to penetrate the pipe fixing member A through the washer 15. Since a long hole 3a extending in the front-rear direction is formed on the side of the reinforcing plate 3, the bolt 4 can be easily inserted even if the mounting position of the reinforcing plate 3 with respect to the opening / closing part 6 is slightly shifted in the front-rear direction. Assembling work can be easily performed.

  The front end of the bolt 4 protrudes to the back side through the bolt hole 14a of the vehicle body frame 14, and a nut 17 is screwed to the front end via a washer 16 and fastened. Thus, the main body 1 is attached to a predetermined position on the vehicle body frame 14 with both the opening / closing portions 6 closed, and the pipe 2 is also fixed via the pipe fixing member A. Then, when both ends of each pipe 2 are connected to a mating member, for example, a pipe to be connected, a hydraulic supply source or various equipment, a series of assembling operations of the pipe 2 is completed.

At the time of fastening with the bolt 4 described above, the pipe 2 is held in the pipe receiving portion 9 of the pipe fixing member A through the following process.
Before the start of fastening, as shown in FIG. 3, the inner side surface 6a of the upper and lower opening / closing portions 6 of the pipe fixing member A and the collar 5 face each other at a predetermined interval. When fastening is started, as shown in FIG. 5, the pipe fixing member A is sandwiched between the washer 15 on the bolt 4 side and the vehicle body frame 14.
The fastening force by the bolts 4 is equalized by the reinforcing plate 3 and acts on the entire outer surface 6 b and the collar 5 except for the hinge portions 7 of the respective opening / closing portions 6. As a result, both the collars 5 approach each other while the both opening / closing parts 6 are bent in the approaching direction, and the both opening / closing parts 6 are not further deformed when the ends of the collars 5 come into contact with each other. The fastening force of the bolts 4 acts so as to sandwich both the collars 5, and the pipe fixing member A is firmly attached on the vehicle body frame 14.

  On the other hand, since the inner diameter of each pipe receiving part 9 is set slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pipe 2, the pipe 2 receives the pipe receiving part due to the elasticity of the both opening / closing parts 6 in the process from the start to the completion of the fastening by the bolt 4. 9 is restrained. Since the pipes 2 at the time when the fastening is completed are in contact with the pipe receiving parts 9 of the opening / closing parts 6 over the entire circumference and receive the restraining force due to the elasticity of the opening / closing parts 6 over the entire circumferences, the respective pipe receiving parts 9. The pipe 2 is firmly held inside.

As a result, the pipe 2 can be fixed by the pipe fixing member A with sufficient restraining force. Therefore, it is possible to reliably prevent the displacement of the pipe 2 in the longitudinal direction and the rotation direction and the play of the pipe 2 in the pipe receiving portion 9 and thus improve the reliability of various equipment.
In particular, in the present embodiment, not only the outer surface 6b of the opening / closing portion 6 but also the front end surface 6c is covered with the reinforcing plate 3, so that the deformation of the opening / closing portion 6 bulging forward when fastened by the bolt 4 can be prevented. Such useless deformation becomes a factor of reducing the binding force on the front pipe 2, but the situation can be prevented and the binding force on the pipe 2 can be further increased.

  And in order to implement | achieve the above effects, the piping fixing member A of this embodiment makes the rear-end side of the rubber-made main body 1 function as the hinge part 7, can open and close both opening-and-closing parts 6, and is rigid. The outer side surface 6b and the front end surface 6c of the opening / closing part 6 that require the above are reinforced by the reinforcing plate 3. That is, unlike the technique of Patent Document 1, there is no need to individually mold the base member and the lid member (corresponding to the main body 1 of the present embodiment), and the hinge members are connected to make these members openable and closable. There is no need to do. Therefore, the molding process and assembly process of the main body 1 can be simplified and the manufacturing cost of the pipe fixing member A can be reduced.

In particular, in this embodiment, the reinforcing plate 3 is fixed to the opening / closing part 6 by hooking the crimping part 3 b of the reinforcing plate 3 on the latching recess 6 d of the opening / closing part 6. Therefore, since the pipe fixing member A can be easily assembled as compared with fixing with an adhesive or the like, the manufacturing cost can be further reduced, and troubles such as peeling of the bonded portion can be avoided.
On the other hand, since the pipe 2 is held by the elasticity of the both opening / closing sections 6 as described above, there is no need for measures such as the formation of a narrow section on the pipe side as in the technique of Patent Document 1, for example. For this reason, it is possible to avoid problems such as the manufacturing process of the pipe 2 becoming complicated, and when the pipe 2 is fixed, the holding position of the pipe 2 by the pipe fixing member A can be finely adjusted as necessary. There is also an effect that the work of assembling the pipe 2 with respect to the frame 14 can be easily performed.

  Further, when the bolts 4 are fastened, the elastic deformation of the both opening / closing parts 6 is restricted when the ends of the collars 5 come into contact with each other, and the fastening force of the bolts 4 acts so as to sandwich the collars 5. Therefore, damage to the pipe 2 due to excessive tightening of the bolts 4 can be prevented, and the pipe fixing member A can be firmly attached to the vehicle body frame 14.

On the other hand, a notch 11 is formed in the hinge portion 7 of the main body 1 so as to be adjacent to the rear pipe receiving portion 9. As shown in FIG. 5, the notch 11 is crushed when the bolt 4 is fastened and functions as a fastening allowance. That is, since the elasticity of the opening / closing part 6 acts on the rear pipe 2 by the amount of the notch 11 being crushed, the pipe 2 can be held more firmly in the pipe receiving part 9 as a result.
Further, as described above, since the main body 1 is vulcanized and molded with both the opening and closing portions 6 closed, when opening both the opening and closing portions 6, the front side of the hinge portion 7, that is, the portion where the notch 11 is formed is pulled. It needs to be deformed in the direction and requires a certain amount of force. Since the hinge portion 7 is provided with flexibility in the pulling direction by the formation of the notches 11, both the opening and closing portions 6 can be opened with a lighter force, and as a result, the assembly work of the pipe 2 can be easily performed. .

  In addition, when the main body 1 is vulcanized and molded in a shape in which both the opening / closing parts 6 are open, the above is opposite, and when the both opening / closing parts 6 are closed, it is necessary to deform the front side of the hinge part 7 in the compression direction. The compressed and deformed portion protrudes as a surplus portion in the left and right direction, and when the main body 1 does not have sufficient flexibility, the compressed and deformed portion is crushed. The formation of the notch 11 gives the hinge portion 7 flexibility in the compression direction, so that an effect of preventing such trouble due to breakage of the main body 1 can be obtained.

By the way, in the said embodiment, although the opening / closing part 6 of the simple shape was formed in the main body 1 by the slit 8, the shape of the opening / closing part 6 can be changed and a new effect can be obtained, and it demonstrates as another example below. To do.
FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a main body 1 of another example of the pipe fixing member A. FIG. In this figure, the open / close portions 6 are open for easy understanding of the characteristic parts, but the main body 1 is integrally vulcanized and molded with rubber with the open / close portions 6 closed as in the above embodiment. ing.

In other words, the front end side of the opening / closing part 6 of the main body 1 is formed in an alternate shape, thereby improving the restraining force in the longitudinal direction of the pipe 2.
Specifically, a restricting portion 21 is formed only in the right half at the front end of the upper opening / closing portion 6, and the restricting portion 21 extends toward the other-side opening / closing portion 6. In addition, a restricting portion 21 is formed only in the left half at the front end of the lower opening / closing portion 6, and the restricting portion 21 extends toward the other opening / closing portion 6 located above. In a state where both the opening and closing portions 6 are closed, the regulating portions 21 are adjacent to each other in the left-right direction, that is, the longitudinal direction of the pipe 2.

The collar 5 is press-fitted into the press-fitting hole 12 of the opening / closing part 6, and the reinforcing plate 3 is attached to both the opening / closing parts 6 although not shown. In this other example, the shape of the latching recess 6d is different from that of the above embodiment, but there is no difference from the embodiment with respect to the function of latching the caulking portion 3b of the reinforcing plate 3.
Various external forces caused by acceleration / deceleration of the vehicle and the like are applied to the pipe 2 fixed by the pipe fixing member A, and the external force along the longitudinal direction of the pipe 2 (the left-right direction in FIG. 7) may be received. In the pipe fixing member A of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, since the displacement of the front ends of both opening / closing parts 6 in the left-right direction is not restricted, both opening / closing parts are particularly affected when receiving a lateral force from the front pipe 2. There is a possibility that the front end of 6 is displaced in the left-right direction and the displacement of the pipe 2 cannot be suppressed. In this other example, since the restricting portions 21 are adjacent to each other on the front end sides of the two opening / closing portions 6 and restrict the displacement in the left-right direction, the displacement of the pipe 2 can be suppressed as a result.

  This is the end of the description of the embodiment, but the aspect of the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in the said embodiment, although it actualized as the piping fixing member A which fixes a pair of piping 2, it does not restrict to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, both opening / closing portions 6 may be extended in the front-rear direction to form pipe receiving portions 9 at five locations, and the pipes 2 may be held in the respective pipe receiving portions 9. In this case, the collars 5 into which the bolts 4 are inserted may be provided at a plurality of locations (two locations in the figure) in the front-rear direction of the opening / closing portion 6 so that the restraining force acts uniformly on each pipe 2.

Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the main body 1 was manufactured with rubber | gum, if the elastic body which can open and close the opening-and-closing part 6 by the hinge part 7 using the elasticity and can hold | maintain the pipe 2 by elasticity, the material will be It is not limited to rubber. For example, instead of rubber, a thermosetting elastomer or the like may be used as the material of the main body 1.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the piping fixing member A was attached to the vehicle body frame 14 with the volt | bolt 4, a fastening member is not restricted to the volt | bolt 4, For example, a rivet etc. may be used.
