  The rail body 12 has a rail portion 27 to which a runner 26 for suspending the curtain 5 can be attached, and an engagement receiving portion that is located on the opposite side of the rail portion 27 in the rail body 12 and can be engaged with the engaging portion 16. And 28.

  Then, the engagement receiving portion 28 and the engagement portion 16 are engaged so that the rail portion 27 is located on the side of the rail body 12 that is opposite to the second mounting portion 15 and is in a so-called lateral direction. The

  Further, in a state where the engagement receiving portion 28 is engaged with each engagement portion 16 and the rail body 12 is attached to the fixture 11, the rail body 12 is disposed below the first attachment portion 14, and These are disposed inside the second mounting portion 15, that is, on the first mounting portion 14 side.

  The rail part 27 has a plate-like upper side part 32 integrally connected to an upper end part which is one end part of the plate-like rear part 31 and a plate-like lower side part to a lower end part which is the other end part of the rear part 31. 33 are connected together.

  Further, a projecting portion 34 projecting downward is integrally connected to the tip portion of the upper side surface portion 32, and a projecting portion 35 projecting upward is integrally connected to the tip portion of the lower side surface portion 33.

  The leading end of the projecting portion 34 and the leading end of the projecting portion 35 are separated from each other, and the rail portion 27 has a concave configuration opened from the back surface portion 31 toward the projecting portions 34 and 35. In a state where the rail body 12 is attached to the fixture 11, the concave rail portion 27 is in a horizontal direction and is released from the back surface portion 31 in the horizontal direction.

  The convex connection portion 37 of the runner 26 is slidably connected to the concave internal space 36 in the rail portion 27.

  The engagement receiving portion 28 is integrally formed on the same plane as the upper side surface 32 from the upper end portion of the back surface portion 31, and on the same plane as the lower side surface portion 33 from the lower end portion of the back surface portion 31. And a lower engagement receiving portion 42 provided integrally therewith.

  The upper engagement receiving portion 41 has a hook portion 43 protruding downward from the tip portion, and the lower engagement receiving portion 42 has a hook portion 44 protruding upward from the tip portion. In addition, these hook parts 43 and 44 are formed in the thin taper shape toward the front-end | tip.

  Then, the hook portion 21 and the hook portion 43 are engaged so as to be hooked, and the hook portion 23 and the hook portion 44 are engaged so as to be hooked, whereby the engaging portion 16 and the engagement receiving portion 28 are engaged. Combined.

  In addition, a cover portion 45 that protrudes to the opposite side of the back surface portion 31 and is disposed on the same plane as the lower engagement receiving portion 28 is integrally provided at the tip of the hook portion 44.

  The covering portion 45 has a tip that contacts the side surface 8 of the ceiling 6 in a state where the engaging portion 16 and the engaging receiving portion 28 are engaged and the rail body 12 is attached to the fixture 11, The lower part of the attachment part 15 and the engaging part 16 are covered.

  Here, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, when the vehicle curtain rail 1 is integrated from the window 3 to the windshield 4, or the ceiling 6 having an unevenness for partitioning the inside of the vehicle 2, the vehicle curtain rail 1 is placed on the ceiling 6. At the time of installation, a configuration in which the rail body 12 is curved to follow the arrangement of the window 3 and the windshield 4 and the shape of the ceiling 6 as much as possible is preferable.

  Therefore, when the rail body 12 is bent, the rail body 12 is bent along the rail portion 27. That is, the rail portion 27 is curved so as to be a curved surface so that the interval between the protruding portion 34 and the protruding portion 35, which is the width of the rail portion 27, is not reduced by the bending.

  Next, the operation and the like of the one embodiment will be described.

  When the vehicle curtain rail 1 is attached, first, a plurality of fixtures 11 are fixed by screws 18 at predetermined positions on the ceiling 6 inside the vehicle 2 via an arbitrary interval.

  When fixing the fixture 11 with the screw 18, the first attachment portion 14 is arranged along the top surface 7 of the ceiling 6 and the second attachment portion 15 is arranged along the side surface 8 of the ceiling 6. The screw 18 is screwed into the iron plate 6a through the through hole 17 in a state where the fixture main body 13 is disposed so as to correspond to the concave shape in the ceiling 6.

  The engagement receiving portion 28 of the rail body 12 is engaged with the engagement portion 16 of the fixture 11 fixed to the ceiling 6 in this way.

  When engaging the engaging portion 16 with the engaging receiving portion 28, the hook portion 43 of the engaging receiving portion 28 is engaged with the hook portion 21 of the engaging portion 16, and then the hook portion 44 is engaged. The engagement holding part 25 is elastically deformed so that the hook part 21 and the hook part 22 approach each other, so that the hook part 44 and the hook part 23 are engaged. Match.

  When the hook portion 23 and the hook portion 44 are engaged, the hook portion 21 and the hook portion 23 are separated by the restoring force of the engagement holding portion 25, and the engagement portion 16 and the engagement receiving portion 28 are engaged. State is maintained.

  Further, in a state where the engaging portion 16 and the engaging receiving portion 28 are engaged, the covering portion 45 comes into contact with the side surface 8 of the ceiling 6 and covers the lower side of the second mounting portion 15 and the engaging portion 16. To do.

  Similarly, by fixing the rail body 12 to other fixtures 11 in order, the vehicle curtain rail 1 is installed inside the vehicle 2.

  According to the vehicle curtain rail, the plurality of fixtures 11 fixed inside the vehicle 2 and the rail body 12 are fixed by engaging the engaging portion 16 and the engaging receiving portion 28. Therefore, it is not necessary to fix the entire length of the rail body 12, and after installing a plurality of fixtures 11 at predetermined intervals on the ceiling 6 in advance, the rail body 12 is connected to the engaging portions 16 of these fixtures 11. It can be easily installed simply by fixing the engagement receiving portion 28 so as to be fitted.

  Further, since the fixture 11 itself is fixed to the iron plate 6a of the ceiling 6 by the screw 18, for example, the holding power of the rail body 12 can be improved and installed more securely than the fixing by the double-sided tape or adhesive. It is possible to prevent the accidental disconnection later.

  Furthermore, since the rail body 12 is not fixed to the fixture 11 with screws, it is not necessary to use screws or tools when attaching the rail body 12 to the fixture 11, and can be reliably installed without damaging the rail portion 27. It is possible to prevent a decrease in the slidability of the runner 26 due to scratches on the rail portion 27.

  Moreover, since the rail main body 12 is located inside the second mounting portion 15 below the first mounting portion 14 in a state where the rail main body 12 is mounted on the mounting tool 11, the rail main body 12 is mounted on the mounting tool 11. The vehicle curtain rail 1 can be made compact, and the installation space can be saved.

  Since the engagement holding part 25 is provided with an elastically deformable engagement holding part 25 between the engagement claw part 22 and the engagement claw part 24, the engagement part 16 is engaged with the engagement part 16 and the engagement receiving part 28. When mating, the engagement holding part 25 can be easily engaged by elastic deformation so that the hook part 23 approaches the hook part 21 side, and in the engaged state, the engagement holding part 25 is restored. Thus, the hook portion 21 and the hook portion 23 can be kept separated from each other, and the engagement force can be improved.

  Since the hook parts 21, 23, 43, 44 are formed in a tapered shape toward the tip, in order to engage the engaging part 16 and the engagement receiving part 28, for example, the hook part 21 and the hook part 43, when the hook portion 44 is pushed into the proximal end side of the engaging claw portion 24 to engage the hook portion 23 and the hook portion 44, the hook portion 44 and the hook portion 23 are The hook portion 44 can be easily pushed in and can be easily engaged so as to slide on the tapered surfaces of each other. After the engagement, the hook portion 21 and the hook portion 43 are firmly hooked, and the hook portion 23 and the hook portion 44 are Since it is hooked firmly, the engagement force can be improved.

  The rail body 12 is curved at least partially along the rail portion 27 so as to correspond to the shape inside the vehicle 2, so that the width of the rail portion 27, that is, the upper side surface portion 32 and the lower side surface portion 33 is curved. It is possible to prevent the distance from changing. For example, if the rail body 12 is bent along the upper side surface portion 32 and the lower side surface portion 33, the width of the rail portion 27 is reduced due to the bending, and the runner 26 is less likely to slide along the rail portion 27. End up.

  The fixture main body 13 is formed in a substantially L shape in a cross-sectional view in which the first mounting portion 14 and the second mounting portion 15 are continuous bent shapes, so that the fixture main body 13 is formed on the ceiling 6. Even if the mounting position of the fixture 11 is concave, the rail body 12 can be easily attached to the fixture 11 attached inside the vehicle 2 because it is easy to attach corresponding to the concave shape and the mounting state is stable. The curtain rail 1 for vehicles can be easily installed.

  In addition, the rail body 12 is attached via the attachment body 13 having a substantially L-shaped cross-sectional view, so that the rail body 12 is attached so that the rail portion 27 faces sideways. The rail body 12 can be curved along the rail portion 27 so as to correspond to the shape of the ceiling 6 formed in an arc shape, the shape of the window 3 and the windshield 4 and the like. Therefore, the width of the rail portion 27 is not reduced by the curvature of the rail body 12, the slidability of the runner 26 can be secured, the followability of the rail body 12 to the shape of the ceiling 6 can be improved, and the curtain 5 is closed. The shielding property can be improved.

  Since the rail body 12 has the covering portion 45, it is possible to prevent the lower side of the second attachment portion 15 and the engagement portion 16 from being exposed in a state where the vehicle curtain rail 1 is installed. Therefore, it is possible to improve the integrity of the appearance of the ceiling 6 and the curtain rail 1 for the vehicle, and the dust 11 enters between the second mounting portion 15 and the lining material 6b, so that the fixing force of the mounting tool 11 to the ceiling 6 is increased. Can be prevented from decreasing.

  In the above-described embodiment, the vehicle curtain rail 1 is installed in the concave portion of the ceiling 6 having the top surface 7 and the side surface 8. However, the present invention is not limited to such a configuration. The curtain rail 1 can be installed as appropriate as long as it is inside the vehicle 2.

  The fixture 11 has a configuration in which the fixture main body 13 is substantially L-shaped in cross-sectional view, but is not limited to such a configuration, and the second attachment in a direction intersecting with the first attachment portion 14. As long as the portion 15 is provided and the engaging portion 16 protrudes from the second attachment portion 15 in the direction along the first attachment portion 14, the shape of the attachment body 13 can be selected as appropriate.

  Although the rail body 12 is configured to be partially curved, the configuration is not limited to such a configuration, and the rail body 12 may be configured not to be curved.

  In addition, the rail body 12 has the rail portion 27 and the engagement receiving portion 28 arranged on opposite sides, and the rail portion 27 is attached to the fixture 11 with the rail portion 27 being the side portion of the rail body 12. However, the present invention is not limited to such a configuration. For example, in a state in which the rail main body 12 is attached to the fixture 11, the rail portion 27 is arranged at the lower portion of the rail main body 12. Alternatively, a so-called downward configuration may be used.

  The vehicle curtain rail 1 has a configuration in which the rail portion 27 is concave and the connecting portion 37 of the runner 26 is convex. However, the configuration is not limited to this, and the runner 26 slides along the rail portion 27. Any configuration is possible.

  That is, for example, as in the modification shown in FIG. 4, the connection portion 52 of the runner 51 may be concave and the rail portion 53 may be convex.

  By adopting a configuration such as the modification shown in FIG. 4, the rail portion 53 can be made simpler than the rail portion 27 in the above-described embodiment. There is a possibility that dust or the like enters the internal space 36 into the rail portion 12 and obstructs the sliding of the runner 26, but dust or the like does not enter the convex rail portion 53.
