Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an automobile door trim mounting structure for mounting an automobile door trim to a door inner panel, and more particularly, to a base having a high rigid resin core formed by injection molding or mold press molding. To a vehicle door trim mounting structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Normally, an automobile door trim is mounted on the interior surface of a door panel in an automobile interior in order to protect an occupant and improve the appearance of the interior.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4, when the door trim 2 is attached to the door inner panel 1,
The upper end inner seal portion 3 is locked to the upper end edge 1a of the door inner panel 1, and the bracket 4a of the door grip 4 is similarly hooked on the hook portion 1b of the door inner panel 1.
The inside handle unit 5 fixed to the door inner panel 1 interferes with the opening 6 of the door trim 2 to attach the door trim 2 by pressing down on the door trim 2 in the direction of locking the door trim 2.
There was a drawback that smooth installation work could not be expected.

Conventionally, when a relatively low rigidity material such as a wood core is used as the core material of the door trim 2, the door trim 2 is attached to the door inner panel 1 by utilizing the overall flexibility. It is actually installed.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, recently, in many cases, complicated curved surface shapes are required in terms of molding.
In order to increase the overall rigidity, a relatively rigid resin material is formed into a complicated curved shape by injection molding or mold press molding, and is often used as a core material of the door trim 2.

However, when a resin core material having high rigidity is used, the entire flexibility cannot be utilized, and it is difficult to fit the inside handle unit 5 into the opening 6 when attaching the door trim 2 to the door inner panel 1. Yes,
There was an urgent need to resolve this.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an inside handle unit is provided for a door trim for an automobile formed by molding a relatively rigid resin material into a curved surface by injection molding or mold press molding. It is another object of the present invention to provide an automobile door trim mounting structure that enables a door trim to be smoothly mounted to a door inner panel even for an interference portion such as the above.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an automobile door trim having a rigid resin core formed into a required shape by injection molding and mold press molding to a door inner panel . Attached to
Then, in the mounting structure of the vehicle door trim to be pressed down and mounted, the vehicle door trim has an opening for exposing the inside handle unit installed on the door inner panel to the trim surface, and the opening lower edge. A thin flexible portion is formed in the resin core material along the inside, and the thin flexible portion is connected to the inside handle unit when the door trim is mounted on the door inner panel.
Door inner based on its lower edge to avoid interference
By flexing in the opposite direction to the Paneru, characterized in that it is configured to fitted into the inside handle unit periphery to the opening while deforming the aperture shape.

[0009]

[Action] As is clear from the above configuration, the door trim
Is formed with an opening for exposing the inside handle unit fixed to the door inner panel to the outside, and a thin flexible portion is formed along a lower edge of the opening, so that the door trim is attached to the door. when mounting against the inner panel, also interferes with the door trim back surface and the inside handle unit, the lower a thin-walled flexible portion
If the opening is deformed by bending in the opposite direction to the door inner panel based on the end , the inside handle unit and the door trim do not interfere with each other, and the inside handle unit is smoothly fitted into the opening of the door trim. It becomes possible.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a door trim for an automobile according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a front view showing an embodiment of a vehicle door trim according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing the structure of the vehicle door trim, and FIG. 3 shows a state where the vehicle door trim is mounted on a door inner panel. FIG.

1 and 2, an automobile door trim 10 according to the present invention is formed by molding a relatively rigid resin material such as ABS resin or PP resin into a desired curved surface shape by injection molding or mold press molding. Core material 11
And a skin material 12 having a cushioning property and a decorative property integrally attached to the surface of the resin core material 11, and a handle-shaped door grip 13 is attached to a bracket 14 installed on the inner surface of the door trim 10. The lower end is supported.

The inside handle unit 21 fixed to the door inner panel 20 is attached to the door trim 1.
An opening 15 is opened to expose the surface 0,
The present invention is characterized in that a thin flexible portion 16 is formed along the lower edge of the opening 15.

That is, when attaching the vehicle door trim 10 to the door inner panel 20, the door trim 1
Operation of locking the inner seal portion 10a at the upper edge of the door 0 to the upper edge 20a of the door inner panel 20, and locking groove 1 of the bracket 14 supporting the lower end of the door grip 13
4a in the same manner as the hook portion 20b of the door inner panel 20.
In order to lock the door trim, the door trim 10 is attached to the door inner panel 20 by pushing the door trim 10 downward. At this time, the inside handle unit 21 interferes with the lower edge of the opening 15. As described above, since the opening 15 is formed by bending and deforming as shown by a dashed line in FIG. 3, the interference between the inside handle unit 21 and the door trim 10 can be avoided. Thus, the inside handle unit 21 can be easily fitted into the opening 15, and even if a highly rigid resin material is used as the resin core material 11, the door trim 10 can be formed by the thin-walled flexible portion 16. 20 can be easily and quickly mounted.

[0015]

As described above, the mounting structure of the vehicle door trim according to the present invention is provided with a thin flexible portion at a portion that interferes with the inside handle unit on the door inner panel side, and by bending this portion, Even when the door trim is made of a highly rigid resin material, the door trim for an automobile can be easily and quickly attached to the door inner panel.
