  Hereinafter, an embodiment of a side stay according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a view showing a state in which a side stay attached to a seat rail is installed on a vehicle body according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the side stay 1 is disposed between the driver seat 2 and the floor surface of the vehicle body 3 and is installed on a seat rail 4 attached to the vehicle body 3. As a result, the driver seat 2 can slide with respect to the vehicle body 3. Specifically, the side stay 1 includes a left side stay 1L attached to the left side of the driver seat 2 of the left driver seat and a right side stay 1R attached to the right side of the driver seat. The stay 1R is formed to be replaceable with the same shape as left and right (see FIG. 3). The seat rail 4 includes a seat rail left side portion 4L and a seat rail right side portion 4R. The left side stay 1L is installed on the seat rail left side 4L, and the right side stay 1R is installed on the seat rail right side 4R. Further, the seat rail right side portion 4R and the seat rail left side portion 4L are connected by a coupling lever 14 (see FIG. 2). In addition, although this embodiment demonstrates in the aspect which attaches the side stay 1 to the driver seat 2, you may make it attach not only to this but the side stay 1 to a passenger seat. In the present embodiment, the side stay 1 is configured from the left side stay 1L and the right side stay 1R. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the side stay 1 is configured from only one of the left side stay 1L and the right side stay 1R. It may be configured.

  Next, the side stay 1 and the seat rail 4 will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. Here, FIG. 2 is a view showing a side stay attached to a seat rail installed in the vehicle body, and FIG. 3A is a view showing a side stay on the right side of the seat in one embodiment of the present invention. (B) is a figure which shows the side stay on the left side of the seat.

  The side stay 1 is substantially L-shaped, and has a substantially L-shaped side stay bottom surface portion 6 joined to the upper rail portion 5 (see FIG. 2) of the seat rail 4 and an upper portion from the side stay bottom surface portion 6. And a side stay vertical surface portion 7 to which the driver seat 2 is attached.

  The side stay bottom surface portion 6 of the side stay 1 is divided into two in the front-rear direction, and a seat rail attachment hole 8 for attaching the seat rail 4 is formed (see FIG. 3). Two seat rail mounting holes 8 are formed in the front portion of the side stay bottom surface portion 6 and two in the rear portion of the side stay bottom surface portion 6. The seat rail mounting hole 8 is formed as a long hole. As described above, by making the seat rail mounting hole 8 a long hole, even if the driver seat 2 has a different width, the mounting position of the long hole of the seat rail mounting hole 8 is adjusted according to the width of the driver seat 2. By doing so, it can be reliably attached to the vehicle body 3.

  The side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1 extends from the side stay bottom surface portion 6 substantially vertically upward, then bends in the L-shaped inner side direction, which is the L-shaped bottom surface side direction, and then substantially vertically upward. Has an elongated shape. Further, the side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1 is not formed in the foremost portion of the seat rail 4 but is formed slightly behind the foremost portion of the seat rail 4. By doing in this way, the space where the front lower part of driver seat 2 hangs down in the foremost part of seat rail 4 is made. In the present embodiment, the shape extends from the side stay bottom surface portion 6 substantially vertically upward, bends inward from the L-shaped inner side direction that is the L-shaped bottom surface side direction, and extends from there substantially vertically upward. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it may have, for example, a portion bent outward, for example, before and after each of the portions extending in the upper portion substantially vertically → bending inward → upper portion extending substantially vertically. In other words, the side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1 has any shape as long as it has a portion that is bent inward after it extends substantially vertically and has a portion that extends substantially vertically thereafter. Is included.

  A plurality of buckle mounting holes 9 are formed in the longitudinal direction on a portion extending substantially vertically above the lower portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1, that is, on the outer surface 7 a located outside the side stay vertical surface portion 7. ing. As will be described later, the buckle attachment hole 9 is a hole for attaching the buckle 11 of the seat belt 17.

  A seat mounting hole 10 for mounting the driver seat 2 is formed at a location extending substantially vertically above the upper portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1, and the seat mounting hole 10 is located in front of the side stay vertical surface portion 7. Two in the vertical direction are formed in the part, and four in the vertical direction are formed in the rear part of the side stay vertical surface part 7. As described above, since a plurality of seat attachment holes 10 for attaching the driver seat 2 are formed in the vertical direction, the driver seat 2 can be attached to the vehicle body 3 by adjusting the height of the driver seat 2. In addition, the seat mounting hole 10 in the front portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 and the seat mounting hole 10 in the rear portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 are formed as long holes, and the seat mounting hole in the rear portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7. 10 has an oblique shape with the rearward direction raised. Thus, since the seat mounting hole 10 in the front part of the side stay vertical surface part 7 and the seat mounting hole 10 in the rear part of the side stay vertical surface part 7 are long holes, the driver seat 2 is adjusted in the front-rear direction, and the driver The seat 2 can be attached to the vehicle body 3. Further, since the seat mounting hole 10 in the rear portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 has an oblique shape with the rearward direction raised, the driver seat 2 is attached to the vehicle body 3 by adjusting the forward tilt angle of the driver seat 2. Can do.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the left side stay 1L, which is the side stay 1 attached to the left side of the driver's seat, and the right side stay 1R, which is the side stay 1 attached to the right side of the driver's seat, have the same shape. Since the left side stay 1L and the right side stay 1R are exchanged, the side stay 1 can be mounted in the reverse direction. In this way, by mounting the side stay 1 in the front-rear direction, the elongated shape of the seat mounting hole 10 in the front portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 and the oblique shape of the seat mounting hole 10 in the rear portion of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 The driver seat 2 can be installed in a manner in line with the driver's needs, for example, the long hole can be reversed and the driver seat 2 tilted forward can be installed as the driver seat 2 tilted backward.

  The seat rail 4 includes a lower rail 12 and an upper rail 13. In this embodiment, the normal seat rail attached to the vehicle body 3 is used as it is. However, instead of using the normal seat rail attached to the vehicle body 3 as it is as the seat rail 4, a seat rail separately manufactured by removing the normal seat rail may be used. Moreover, although this embodiment demonstrates using a left-right integrated seat rail, it is not restricted to this, You may use a separate type seat rail. Here, since the seat rail 4 is a general existing normal seat rail, the seat race 4 will be briefly described below.

  The lower rail 12 has a substantially U-shaped cross section, and a rail-shaped portion is formed in the middle of the U-shaped. The front lower rail front fixing portion and the rear lower rail rear fixing portion are attached to the vehicle body 3. The upper rail 13 has a substantially U-shaped cross section and is formed so as to cover the rail shape portion of the lower rail 12. Further, a plurality of side stay mounting holes 15 are formed in the upper surface longitudinal direction on the upper rail 13, and side stay mounting bolts 16 protrude from the side stay mounting holes 15. Then, the side stay 1 is mounted on the seat rail 4 by inserting the side stay mounting bolt 16 into the seat rail mounting hole 8 of the side stay 1 and fastening with a nut (see FIG. 4). By mounting in this way, the side stay 1 can slide on the lower rail 12 together with the upper rail 13. Here, FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the seat rail installed on the side stay and the vehicle body in one embodiment of the present invention.

  As described above, the coupling lever 14 is a member that couples and connects the seat rail left side portion 4L and the seat rail right side portion 4R that are arranged substantially symmetrically. The seat rail 4 is provided with an operation lever (not shown), and the driver seat 2 can be fixed so as not to slide in the front-rear direction by operating the operation lever.

Next, a method of attaching the buckle 11 of the seat belt 17 to the side stay 1 will be described with reference to FIG. Here, FIG. 5A is a side view showing a state in which the buckle is attached to the buckle attachment hole of the side stay in one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5B is a view of the buckle attachment hole of the side stay. It is sectional drawing which shows the state in which the buckle was attached.

  A plurality of buckle mounting holes 9 are formed in the longitudinal direction of the side stay 1 as described above. A buckle bolt insertion hole 19 is formed in the lower portion of the buckle 11 of the seat belt 17. Then, a buckle fastening bolt 18 is inserted from the buckle bolt insertion hole 19 through the buckle attachment hole 9, and a nut is fastened to the buckle fastening bolt 18 at the back of the buckle attachment hole 9, whereby the seat belt is attached to the side stay 1. Seventeen buckles 11 are attached.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, since a plurality of buckle mounting holes 9 are formed in the longitudinal direction of the outer surface of the side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1, when the driver seat 2 is replaced, the driver seat 2 The buckle 11 of the seat belt 17 can be attached to the buckle attachment hole 9 at a position suitable for the above. Thereby, the seat belt 17 can be mounted at an appropriate position of the driver.

  As described above, in the conventional L-shaped seat rail stay (side stay), the L-shaped vertical surface portion of the side stay is bent or twisted at the corner of the high-speed circuit, etc. Although the line of sight became unstable and hindered accurate driving control of the driver, the side stay vertical surface portion 7 of the side stay 1 of the present embodiment extended substantially vertically and then the L-shaped inner direction And the side stay 1 is difficult to be bent and twisted. This eliminates instability in the driver's line of sight and allows accurate driving control even on high-speed circuits.
