Description

[0001]
[Field of the Invention]
The present invention relates to a finisher used for a hinge bracket of a vehicle seat.
[0002]
[Background]
In general, a hinge bracket of an automobile seat uses a reclining device or a free hinge bracket, and covers the hinge joints with a finisher for assembly. Since the finisher is screwed to the bracket on the support side, the installation work is troublesome, and particularly when it becomes a groping work, the workability becomes very bad.
[0003]
[Problems of the Invention]
An object of the present invention is to provide a finisher used for a hinge bracket of a vehicle seat that can be easily and quickly attached to a bracket on a support side.
[0004]
[Means corresponding to the problem and its operation]
The present invention includes a fin formed in an appropriate shape, a shield lip protruding at the peripheral edge of the fin except at least the lower end of the fin, and protruding from the back surface of the fin at a predetermined position. A hook that is formed and hung on a bracket on the support side, and is formed integrally with the back surface of the fin under the hook, and is fitted into a hole in the bracket to fit the bracket to the bracket. A hook for retaining the hook, hooking the hook to the bracket, and fitting the hook into the hole in the bracket for one-touch attachment.
[0005]
[Explanation of specific examples]
Hereinafter, a finisher used for a hinge bracket of a vehicle seat according to the present invention will be described based on a specific example specified and illustrated. FIGS. 1 to 3 are used for a reclining device in a third seat of a wagon. 10 shows a specific example 10 of a finisher used for a hinge bracket of a vehicle seat according to the present invention, and the finisher 10 includes a fin 11, a hook 13, and a pair of claws 14, 14 made of a hard resin. On the other hand, the shield lip 12 is manufactured from a soft resin and manufactured in an integral structure where it is spot welded to the fins 11.
[0006]
In the finisher 10, the fin 11 is made on a cover plate having an appropriate shape, and the shield lip 12 is formed from the lower end of the fin 11 except for the lower peripheral portion on the front side, and the rest of the fin 11. Protruding to the peripheral edge, and the hook 13 is protruded from the back surface 15 of the fin 11 at a predetermined position to be integrally formed with the fin 11, and is hooked on the bracket 30 on the support side. The pair of claws 14, 14 are formed integrally with the fin 11 so as to protrude from the back surface 15 of the fin 11 under the hook 13, and fit into the pair of holes 34, 34 of the bracket 30. The hooks 13 are attached to the brackets 30 to prevent them from coming off.
[0007]
The shield lip 12 protrudes from the remaining peripheral edge of the fin 11 and is spot welded to the back surface 15 of the fin 11 at an appropriate interval.
[0008]
The hook 13 includes a head pocket 17, left and right shoulder ribs 18, 18 that are positioned below the head pocket 17 and extend on both sides of the head pocket 17, and the left and right shoulder ribs 18, 18. Left and right shoulder guide ribs 19, 19 that extend downward from the head, head positioning ribs 20, 20 that restrict the head 31 of the bracket 30 in the head pocket 17 in the width direction, and the left and right shoulders The left and right flanges 21 and 21 that protrude from the guide ribs 19 and 19 to face each other and prevent the left and right shoulders 32 and 32 of the bracket 30 from coming off in the width direction and the corresponding left and right flanges 21 and 21 The left and right sides that restrict the left and right shoulders 32, 32 of the bracket 30 to face each other in the width direction Constituted by the shoulder positioning ribs 22 and 22.
[0009]
The head pocket 17 is formed in a predetermined position so as to protrude downward from the back surface 15 of the fin 11 and open downward in a head housing 16 formed integrally with the fin 11, and The left and right shoulder ribs 18 and 18 are connected to both sides of the lower end of the head housing 16. Further, the left and right shoulder guide ribs 19, 19 are provided with inclined surfaces 23, 23 adapted to the tapered surfaces 33 of the shoulders 32, 32 of the bracket 30. The shoulder ribs 18 and 18, the shoulder guide ribs 19 and 19, the head positioning ribs 20 and 20, and the shoulder positioning ribs 22 and 22 protrude into the back surface 15 of the fin 11 at predetermined positions. And formed integrally with the fin 11.
[0010]
Therefore, the finisher 10 has the bracket 30 disposed on the seat cushion bracket side of the reclining device, so that the hook 13 is hung on the bracket 30 from above, and the claws 14 and 14 are placed on the bracket 30. It can be easily and quickly attached to the bracket 30 by fitting into the holes 34, 34. In this way, the attachment is simple even when it becomes one-touch and groping work, and the workability is improved as compared with screwing. Further, the finisher 10 can be easily disassembled compared to screwing, can be separated and disassembled easily, can be easily recycled, and can contribute to the effective use of scarce resources.
[0011]
As will be apparent from the specific embodiments of the present invention described above with reference to the drawings, for those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains, It is easily embodied in another embodiment that derives from the nature and the nature of the invention and is objectively recognized as having them inherent. Of course, the content of this invention corresponds to the problem of the invention (be recommend with) and is essential for the establishment of the invention.
[0012]
[Benefits of the invention]
As will be understood from the above, the finisher used for the hinge bracket of the vehicle seat of the present invention protrudes to the peripheral edge of the fin except for the fin made in an appropriate shape and at least the lower end of the fin. The shield lip is integrally formed by being protruded from the back surface of the fin in a predetermined position, and is hooked to the bracket on the support side, and is protruded from the back surface of the fin under the hook. In the finisher used for the hinge bracket of the vehicle seat of the present invention, the hook is fitted to the bracket hole and includes a claw that fits into the bracket hole and prevents the hook from coming off. By hanging on the bracket from above and fitting the pawl into the hole in the bracket It can be easily and quickly attached to the bracket, and it is easy to install when it is a one-touch and groping work, and the workability is improved compared to screwing. Easy to separate, dismantle, easily recycle, and contribute to the effective use of scarce resources, so that it is very useful and practical for vehicle seat hinge brackets.
