[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dash side trim mounting structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In an automobile shown in FIG. 7, a dash side trim is attached to a lower portion of a front lower pillar. FIG. 5 is a view of the vicinity of the front end of the side sill as viewed from the direction of arrow A in FIG. Furthermore, this trim b is provided with a locking portion b ₁ to the rear side edge as shown in FIG. 6, there by fitted to the flange portion a ₁ of the front lower pillar a this through Welt d . In the drawing, e is a side scuff attached to the side sill, and f is a weather strip for sealing between the side door g and the front lower pillar a.

[0003]

The present invention is to provide a way, there is a case to seal the space between the front lower pillar a flange portion a side door by fitting the weather strip to _1. In such a motor vehicle, it can not be supported side edges of the dash side trim b the flange portion a ₁ of the front lower pillar a weatherstrip in the way. Because
The side edge of the dash side trim b rises from the front lower pillar a to cause a problem that the appearance is impaired.

[0004] In view of such circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide a mounting structure of a dash side trim in which a side edge does not rise from a front lower pillar.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is directed to a structure in which a dash side trim is attached to a front lower pillar in which a weather strip is fitted to a flange-like portion. And a rib protruding from the back surface of the side edge, the rib being clamped together with the base of the weather strip by a clip , and
The clip is clamped at the base together with the flange-like portion.
To position the clip
A recess is provided in the pillar inner panel .

[0006]

1 is an exploded view of the structure of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a front lower pillar, 2 is a dash side trim, and 3 is a weather strip. The dash side trim 2 is attached to the front lower pillar 1 with a resin clip 4 as shown in FIG.
a is curved so that the flange-shaped portion 5 of the front lower pillar 1 is involved. A rib 6 is provided on the back surface of the side edge 2a. On the other hand, front lower pillar 1
Has a weather-strip 3 fitted to a flange-like portion 5, and a rib 6 of a dash side trim 2 is clamped by a clip 7 to a base 3a having a U-shaped cross section. The inner panel 1a of the front lower pillar 1, the clip 7 is a <br/> escape, are recesses 8 for the positioning thereof. The weather strip 3 is for sealing between the side door 9 and the part of the lower part of the side door 9 facing the dash side trim 2 is the other weather strip attached to the side door 9. Performed at 10.

When assembling the dash side trim 2, the clip 7 is inserted into the base 3a of the weather strip 3 in advance. Next, the weather strip 3 is fitted to the flange portion 5 of the front lower pillar 1. At this time, the clip 7 is set in the recess 8 of the front lower pillar 1. Finally, insert the rib 6 of the dash side trim 2 into the clip 7, adjust the position of the trim 2 in the vertical direction to adjust the position of the mounting hole, and then fix the trim 2 to the front lower pillar 1 with the clip 4. Good.
As described above, since the positioning of the clip 7 is performed by the recess 8, the rib 6 of the dash side trim 2 can be reliably engaged with the clip 7. set
When the attachment is completed, the flange is attached to the base 3a.
The clip 7 is clamped together with the shape 5

In this embodiment, a clip 7 having a U-shaped cross section is used. However, a clip 11 having a S-shaped cross section as shown in FIG. You may make it fit in the flange-shaped part 5 previously.

[0009]

According to the present invention, the rear side edge of the dash side trim is supported by the flange portion of the front lower pillar, so that it does not float off the front lower pillar.

Further, since the trim can be temporarily fixed only by inserting the rib of the dash side trim into the clip, workability is improved.
