Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention provides a clip locking molding at the upper end of a side protector molding that covers the door from the middle portion to the lower end, and the front and rear of the vehicle at the middle portion of the door outer panel. The present invention relates to a side protector molding mounting structure for an automobile, which is clipped to a recess extending in the direction.

[Conventional technology]

In the conventional mounting structure of this type, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the upper end portion of the side protector molding 2 provided with a sealing material extending to abut the rocker molding 9 at the lower end portion is connected to the door outer panel 1. In order to mount it in the recessed portion 3 extending in the vehicle front-rear direction at the middle portion of the side protector molding 2, a step portion 2a that penetrates into the recessed portion 3 is formed at the upper end portion of the side protector molding 2 so that it is flush with the side protector molding 2. The stepped portion 2a is provided with the clip locking molding 5 constituted by surrounding both surfaces of the metal plate 5a with the synthetic resin 5b. That is, this molding is the upper edge 2b of the side protector molding 2.
, The clip 6 is locked inside, and the step 2a is locked to the door outer panel 1. Then, the upper edge 2b of the side protector molding 2 extends in the same plane above the clip 6 and extends toward the upper inclined surface 3a of the recessed portion 3, and the gap S is provided so as not to damage the surface of the door outer panel 1. Was there.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

Therefore, the presence of the gap S is apparently unfavorable, and since the rigidity is not sufficient in the process of simply forming the space with the metal plate 5a, the mouth may be opened.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a side protector molding mounting structure that can suppress the occurrence of opening between the door outer panel and the molding and that is also preferable in appearance.

[Means for solving the problem]

In order to achieve this object, the present invention forms a clip locking space for locking one end of a clip on both front and back surfaces of a folded metal plate, and from this space, both front and back surfaces are formed. And the upper edge cover portion that extends above the upper edge of the step portion toward the concave surface is formed to form a clip locking molding, and a line that abuts the concave surface over the entire tip of the upper edge cover portion. The feature is that the elastic body is fixed.

[Action]

The upper edge cover portion of the clip locking molding extends above the upper edge of the step protection portion of the side protector molding toward the recessed surface, and the elastic body at the tip thereof contacts the recessed surface of the door outer panel. The rigidity of the clip locking molding is improved by including the structural parts that are folded back and overlapped with each other, and the elastic body abuts by its elastic stroke even if the positional relationship between the molding tip and the door outer panel surface changes. Follow the state.

〔Example〕

1 to 3 show the mounting structure of the side protector molding when the present invention is applied to the side protector molding shown in FIG.

In these figures, the clip locking molding 10 mounted on the stepped portion 2a penetrating into the concave portion 3 of the side protector molding 2 has a clip locking space 12 formed on both front and back surfaces of a single stainless plate 11. The upper edge of the stepped portion 2a is formed by stacking the stainless steel plates 11 on the front and back from this space while forming the space.
An upper edge cover portion 14 extending above the upper portion 2c toward the upper inclined surface 3a of the recess 3 is formed, and the stainless steel plate 11 bent as an insert in this way is covered with a synthetic resin 13 on both sides of the side protector molding 2. Are surrounded in layers.

Further, for example, a synthetic rubber so as to come into contact with the upper inclined surface 3a of the recess 3 in the entire vehicle front-rear direction of the tip portion of the upper edge cover portion 14 surrounded by the synthetic resin 13 (shown by hatching in FIG. 1), A linear elastic body 15 made of soft vinyl chloride is welded.
The thickness of the elastic body 15 is set to such a degree that the elastic body 15 can be reliably elastically pressed against the upper inclined surface 3a of the door outer panel 1 and can elastically follow relative displacement with the upper inclined surface 3a. Further, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the end portion in the vehicle front-rear direction is also covered with the synthetic resin 13, and the outer surface of the synthetic resin 13 is continuously flush with the surface of the side outer panel 2. As a result, the vehicle bends toward the passenger compartment and faces the recess 3.

With such a clip locking molding 10, when the side protector molding 2 is locked to the door outer panel 1 by the clip 6, the elastic body 15 elastically contacts the door outer panel 1 with its elastic stroke, and The upper edge cover portion 14 serves as an insert formed by folding the stainless steel plate 11 to improve the strength, thereby suppressing the occurrence of mouth opening. Therefore, the elastic body 15 eliminates the gap S, and even if a slight opening or deformation occurs, it elastically follows and prevents the formation of the gap.

Although the stainless steel plate 11 is used as the insert in the above-described embodiment, it is also possible to form the clip molding only with such a metal plate and directly attach the linear elastic body to the tip.

[Effect of device]

As described above, according to the present invention, the folded metal plate covers the upper edge of the side protector molding, so that the rigidity is improved and the opening is unlikely to occur, and the elastic body fixed to the tip is used for the door outer panel. By elastically abutting against, it is possible to reliably suppress the generation of gaps, which is preferable in terms of design.
