Description

  The present invention relates to a structure of a console panel for a vehicle.

  The electronic device incorporates a connector device into which a signal line terminal (male side terminal) is inserted in order to connect a signal line for signal transmission / reception with another electronic device. In such a connector device, a terminal hole (female side terminal) into which a terminal of a signal line is inserted is formed. The male terminal inserted into the terminal hole is electrically connected to a signal processing board provided inside the connector device through the terminal hole, and various signals can be input and output (for example, Patent Documents). 1).

  This terminal hole has no problem when the male terminal is inserted, but when the male terminal is not inserted, the terminal hole is completely exposed to the outside. In this case, dust or the like may enter the inside of the terminal hole exposed to the outside, which may lead to poor electrical connection or failure of the connector device itself.

  Therefore, a lid that covers the terminal hole when the terminal is not connected has been proposed. For example, Patent Document 2 describes a lid that covers a pin jack provided on a front panel of a television receiver. The portion of the front panel to which the pin jack is attached is processed with a step, and the lid includes a flat plate portion covering the step portion and an attachment portion formed in an L shape from the flat plate portion, and is configured to fix the attachment portion to the front panel. ing. The corner portion that connects the mounting portion to the flat plate portion constitutes an elastic hinge, and the flat plate lid is rotatable with respect to the front panel.

  Patent Document 2 discloses a method in which a protrusion having a claw is formed on the attachment portion of the lid, and the claw is brought into contact with the opening periphery on the back side of the slit of the front panel so that the attachment portion of the lid does not come off. A method is described in which a projection is provided on the front panel, the projection is inserted through an insertion hole formed in the lid, and then the tip of the projection is melted to attach the lid mounting portion to the front panel. However, the attachment method using the claws has a problem that the lid is easily removed, and the attachment method by melting the protrusions deteriorates the appearance.

  Therefore, in Patent Document 2, a lid fixing portion having a groove-shaped cross section is provided at one side edge in the longitudinal direction of the lid, and a screw is fixed so that one end of a metal fixing plate is fitted into the groove. A structure for fixing the lid has been proposed. Since the lid is fixed to the front panel via an elastic hinge formed by reducing the thickness on one side edge in the longitudinal direction, the lid is rotatably attached to the front panel. When the lid is closed so as to cover the pin jack of the front panel, the lock claw provided on the lid fits into the lock claw engagement hole provided on the front panel, and the deformation resistance of the elastic hinge portion The lid is configured to keep the closed state by overcoming the repulsive force in the opening direction of the lid.

  On the other hand, with the recent development of electronic equipment, the core wire of the coaxial cable is connected by a pin that fits into the terminal hole like an audio cable, and the shield wire is connected by the electrical connection portion provided outside the terminal. Terminals are being used. In such a terminal that electrically connects the terminal hole and the outer surface at the same time, in order to connect the outer surface, a space into which the male side plug enters the outer periphery of the terminal is required. For this reason, it is necessary to make the hole for the connection terminal provided in the panel larger than that corresponding to the conventional pin jack. Furthermore, two connection terminals are required to connect a stereo signal line, and more terminals are required to connect a video signal.

  When a plurality of terminals are required as described above, a multiple terminal is often used in which a plurality of terminals are continuously arranged to reduce an arrangement space. However, when multiple terminals are used, the terminal interval is narrowed, so the holes for connecting terminals provided on the panel are not arranged with a plurality of holes, but a space where a plurality of terminals are arranged collectively. It will be necessary to have a plug storage room. This plug storage chamber has a large opening and depth because it requires a space in which each male terminal can be connected to each female terminal arranged inside. And in order to infiltrate foreign matter into each terminal hole and protect the electrical connection surface of the outer surface of each terminal, it is necessary to provide a large lid that covers the entire opening provided in the panel.

  However, there is a problem that the attachment method described in Patent Document 2 that simply engages the claw has a problem that it becomes easier to come off when the lid is enlarged, and the method that melts and fixes the protrusion has a problem that the appearance is deteriorated. In the method of fixing the groove with a metal plate, there is a problem that the number of parts increases and the lid is difficult to attach. This point also becomes a serious problem when a plug storage chamber is provided in the vehicle console panel.

  On the other hand, in the lid structure described in Patent Document 2, the deformation resistance of the elastic hinge portion provided over the entire end surface of the lid increases due to the increase in size of the lid, and the repulsive force in the opening direction of the lid increases. Since it becomes large, the force required to hold the lid in the closed state becomes large, and it is necessary to provide a large lock claw or a plurality of lock claws. For this reason, if the length of the elastic hinge portion is not increased in accordance with the increase in the size of the lid, an increase in deformation resistance can be suppressed and an increase in the repulsive force in the opening direction of the lid can be suppressed. Since it is not provided over the entire end surface of the lid, there is a problem that when the lid is in the open state, the lid is glazed and becomes obstructive when inserting the terminal, and the operability of terminal insertion is reduced. . That is, if the repulsive force in the opening direction of the lid is suppressed, there is a problem that glare occurs in the opened state of the lid.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to propose a structure in which a lid of a plug storage chamber of a vehicle console panel can be easily attached and is not easily detached. Another object of the present invention is to suppress glare in the open state of the lid while suppressing an increase in repulsive force in the opening direction of the lid.

The vehicle console panel of the present invention includes a base portion, a decorative surface provided on the vehicle interior side of the base portion, a substantially rectangular opening provided in the decorative surface, and a side of the periphery of the opening. A rectangular recess including four plates (upper, lower, left and right) extending toward the bottom and a bottom plate connected to the end of each plate, and a plug storage chamber for storing a terminal tube of a multiple plug terminal in the recess; and an opening A console panel for a vehicle comprising: a lid that can be freely opened and closed; and a case in which a multiple plug terminal is fixed and is placed outside the plug storage chamber, wherein the plug storage chamber is connected to a lower plate of the bottom plate A slot formed on the side of the lower plate side of the slot and an engagement rib having a chevron at the tip, extending from the peripheral edge of the lower plate side into the base portion, and the lid is formed on the side of the plug storage chamber of the lid, The lid is inserted into the slot provided in the plug storage chamber Is attached to the plug housing chamber, the lid during the opening and closing of the lid connection part near an elastic body plate-shaped rotating the lid around an axis along the direction of arrangement of the multiple-plug terminal by elastic deformation Including the mounting arm, on the upper surface of the lower plate of the plug storage chamber, one flange is separated by the width of the mounting arm and parallel to the insertion direction of the mounting arm, and the other flange is from the lower plate by the thickness of the mounting arm. Two holding claws having a substantially L-shaped cross section that are arranged so as to be separated from each other and restrict the positions in the width direction and the thickness direction of the mounting arm, the mounting arm is inserted into the slot, and the plate surface is the upper surface of the engaging rib. A V-shaped return claw that engages with the front end of the engagement rib is formed at the front end, and when the case is put on the outside of the plug storage chamber, The mounting arm attached to the top surface of Across to have a rib which is disposed in a position opposite to, and wherein.

Further, in the vehicle console panel of the present invention, the lid is formed on a side surface of the plug storage chamber of the lid, and is elastically generated to generate a tightening force against the outer surface of the terminal cylinder by being spread over the terminal cylinder when the lid is closed. It is also preferable to have an outer peripheral rib of the body and an elastic pin that is compressed and inserted into the terminal hole of the terminal cylinder when the lid is closed and generates a repulsive force against the inner surface of the terminal hole.

  INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention has an effect that it is possible to provide a structure in which a lid of a plug storage chamber of a vehicle console panel can be easily attached and is not easily detached. In addition, the present invention has an effect that it is possible to suppress glare in the open state of the lid while suppressing an increase in the repulsive force in the opening direction of the lid.

  Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a design surface 11 of a vehicle console panel 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The design surface 11 is a surface facing the vehicle compartment side, on which control buttons and terminals of various switches, indicators indicating the positions of the switches, and the like are arranged. The console panel 10 of the present embodiment has a VTR terminal, which is a triple plug terminal, disposed at the center thereof, and a lid 12 that covers the terminal is attached. The lid 12 includes a lid plate 13 disposed so as to be flush with the design surface 11 and a knob 14 for hooking a finger when the lid 12 is opened. Further, on both sides of the design surface 11, a cover 15 for covering a single terminal for audio signals and a volume 17 for adjusting the volume are provided.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the console panel 10 is configured by combining a main body 21, which is a base portion having a design surface 11, an upper cover 23, a lower cover 25, a VTR triple plug terminal 27, and a lid 12. Yes. A triple plug terminal 27 for VTR has a circuit board attached to the upper cover side, and is attached so that a terminal tube 28 whose outer surface is electrically connected toward the design surface 11 protrudes.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the lid 12 includes a lid plate 13, three annular outer peripheral ribs 41 formed on the plug storage chamber 19 side of the lid plate 13, and the center of the outer peripheral rib 41 toward the plug storage chamber 19. And three cylindrical pins 42 formed toward the surface. A plate-like attachment arm 45 is formed on the lower end side of the cover plate 13 toward the plug storage chamber 19. The mounting arm 45 includes a return claw 46 formed in a V shape at the tip. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the mounting arm 45 includes a protrusion 47 extending further in the longitudinal direction from the root portion of the return claw 46. The cover plate 13 and the outer peripheral rib 41 formed on the cover plate 13, the pin 42, the mounting arm 45, the return claw 46 provided at the tip of the mounting arm 45, and the protrusion 47 are integrally formed by an elastic material such as an elastomer, for example. It may be configured. When configured by integral molding, the outer peripheral rib 41, the pin 42, the mounting arm 45, etc. formed on the cover plate 13 are integrated so that the thickness is 60% or less of the thickness of the thickest cover plate 13. It is comprised so that the deformation | transformation by the side of the design surface 11 of the cover plate 13 in the case of shaping | molding may be prevented.

  The configuration of the lid 12 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, each outer peripheral rib 41 formed on the side of the plug housing chamber 19 of the cover plate 13 of the cover 12 has an annular shape so as to fit into the outer surface of each terminal tube 28 shown in FIG. A slit is provided in the lower part so that it can be easily attached to and detached from the cylinder 28. Further, a pin 42 to be inserted into the terminal hole 29 shown in FIG. 4 provided at the center of the terminal cylinder 28 is provided at the center of each outer peripheral rib 41. A rib 44 for increasing the degree of fixation of the pin 42 is provided at a portion where the pin 42 is connected to the cover plate 13. The pin 42 has a cylindrical shape with a hole in the center, and a projection 43 is provided on the outer surface along the longitudinal direction. The protrusion 43 comes into contact with the inner surface of the terminal hole when the pin is fitted into the terminal hole 29. The protrusion 34 may be provided continuously in the longitudinal direction of the pin 42 or may be provided partially.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a substantially L-shaped holding claw 35 is formed on the inner surface of the plug storage chamber 19 where the mounting arm 45 is mounted. The holding claw 35 restricts the position of each side end face of the attachment arm 45, restricts the movement of the attachment arm 45 in the width direction, and restricts the position of the plate surface of the plate-like attachment arm 45. For this reason, the mounting arm 45 is sandwiched between the two holding claws 35 and the inner surface of the plug storage chamber 19 so that the movement in the thickness direction is restricted. Therefore, the mounting arm 45 is located in the vicinity of the joint portion with the lid plate 13. An elastic hinge that bends and deforms in the thickness direction of the mounting arm 45 is formed. Due to the elastic deformation of the elastic hinge, the cover plate 13 is rotatable about the vicinity of the joint with the mounting arm 45 as a rotation axis. The rotation axis is an axis along the arrangement direction of the triple plug terminals 27 shown in FIG. Further, since the mounting arm 45 is sandwiched between the two holding claws 35 and the inner surface of the plug storage chamber 19, the mounting arm 45 is configured to suppress rotation around its longitudinal axis. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the operability of terminal connection from being lowered due to the cover plate 13 being glazed even when the cover 12 is open.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, in the assembled state, the cover plate 13 protrudes slightly from the design surface 11 shown in FIG. This is because the insertion of the male terminal is taken into account when the cover plate 13 is in the open state. On the other hand, the hinge constructed in the vicinity of the connecting portion between the cover plate 13 and the mounting arm 45 is an elastic hinge. Therefore, when the cover 12 is closed from this assembled state, the repulsion in the opening direction caused by the deformation resistance of the elastic hinge. A force that opposes the force is required. For this reason, the lid 12 is in an open state if there is no force to hold it in the closed state.

  4 and 5 show the procedure for assembling the console panel. As shown in FIG. 4, the attachment arm 45 of the lid 12 is inserted between the holding claw 35 provided on the lower inner surface including the opening 22 of the main body 21 and the inner surface. Then, the return claw 46 provided at the tip of the mounting arm 45 is compressed between the holding claw 35 and the inner wall of the plug storage chamber 19 so that the V shape is closed. When the lid 12 is further pushed into the main body 21 in this state, the mounting arm 45 and the return claw 46 are provided on the surface opposite to the opening 22 of the plug storage chamber 19 as shown in FIG. Inserted into the slot 31. In the slot 31, the return claw 46 is compressed toward the inside of the slot 31 in the same manner as between the holding claw 35 and the inner surface of the plug storage chamber 19. When the lid 12 is further pushed into the main body 21, the return claw 46 passes through the slot 31 and reaches the back side of the slot 31. As indicated by the one-dot chain line in FIG. 5A, when the return claw 46 reaches the back side of the slot 31, the compression of the return claw 46 is released, and the return claw 46 returns to the V shape and the elasticity of the return claw 46. It warps in a direction away from the surface of the engagement rib 33 by force. When the attachment arm 45 is further inserted and the tip of the return claw 46 exceeds the range of the engagement rib 33, the attachment arm 45 returns to a position along the engagement rib 33 due to elasticity, and at the same time the return claw 46 is engaged. Engage with the crest at the tip of the rib 33. The front end of the engagement rib 33 has a mountain shape corresponding to the V-shaped shape of the return claw 46, and the attachment arm 45 is configured not to easily come off when the return claw 46 is engaged.

  As described above, even when the attachment arm 45 of the lid 12 is attached to the main body 21, the position of the attachment arm 45 is limited by the holding claw 35, so that the return claw 46 is difficult to come off from the engagement rib 33. It has become. In addition, when the lid 12 is pulled with a large force, it is possible to suppress the V-shaped opening angle of the return claw 46 from being increased by the force due to the rigidity of the projection 47, and therefore when a large tensile force is applied. However, the lid 12 cannot be easily removed. Since it has such a structure, even when the cover 12 is attached to the main body 21 and the upper cover 23 and the lower cover 25 are not attached, the cover can be made difficult to come off. When the console panel is assembled, it is possible to prevent the lid 12 once attached from coming off and causing an assembly failure.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the VTR triple plug terminal 27 is sandwiched when the upper cover 23 and the lower cover 25 are combined, and is fixed between the upper cover 23 and the lower cover 25. The upper cover 23 and the lower cover 25 to which the triple plug terminal 27 is fixed are integrally assembled from the side opposite to the design surface 11 of the main body 21. When the upper cover 23 and the lower cover 25 are assembled to the main body 21, the terminal tube 28 of the triple plug terminal 27 for the VTR is designed so as to be recessed from the design surface 11 of the main body 21. When the lid 12 of the design surface 11 is opened through the hole 30 provided on the surface opposite to the surface 11 and the design surface 11 is opened, the male terminal is connected to the outer surface of the terminal tube 28 and the central terminal hole 29. It is configured so that it can be connected.

  As shown in FIG. 5B, when the lower cover 25 is assembled to the main body 21, the mounting arm 45 is sandwiched between the rib 26 of the lower cover 25 and the engaging rib 33. Even if a pulling force is applied to the mounting arm 45, the return claw 46 is prevented from being deformed by the rib 26 and lifted away from the engagement rib 33, so that deformation of the return claw 46 due to the tensile force is suppressed and returned. The claw 46 is configured to be further restrained from being disengaged from the engagement rib 33.

  The opening / closing operation of the lid 12 of the console panel 10 having the above-described configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 6, the surface of the cover plate 13 of the console panel 10 that has been assembled protrudes from the design surface 11 and is slightly open. When the knob 14 of the cover plate 13 is pressed toward the design surface 11, a pressing force toward the design surface 11 is applied to the cover 12. This pressing force is transmitted to the mounting arm 45 and pushes the mounting arm 45 in the insertion direction. However, since the movement of the attachment arm 45 in the insertion direction is restricted by the lower cover 25, it does not move in the insertion direction. On the other hand, an elastic hinge is formed in the vicinity of the connecting portion between the cover plate 13 and the mounting arm 45 to rotate the cover plate 13 around an axis along the arrangement direction of the triple plug terminals, in FIG. ing. Since there is a distance between the rotary shaft of the elastic hinge and the knob 14, the pressing force in the direction toward the design surface 11 applied to the knob 14 is a rotational moment for rotating the cover plate 13 around the elastic hinge. Works. When the magnitude of the rotational moment becomes larger than the deformation resistance moment of the elastic hinge formed in the vicinity of the connecting portion between the cover plate 13 and the mounting arm 45, the cover plate 13 rotates around the elastic hinge, and the design surface 11 Approaching. The closer the cover plate 13 is to the design surface 11, the greater the repulsive force in the opening direction due to the deformation resistance of the elastic hinge. Further, when the knob 14 is continuously pushed toward the design surface 11, the inner surface of each annular outer peripheral rib 41 formed on the plug housing chamber 19 side of the cover plate 13 and the outer surface of each terminal cylinder 28 come into contact with each other. start. Since the inner diameter of the outer peripheral rib 41 is smaller than the outer diameter of the terminal cylinder 28, the terminal cylinder 28 expands the outer peripheral rib 41 as the outer peripheral rib 41 fits into the outer surface of the terminal cylinder 28, thereby the outer peripheral rib 41. 41 generates a tightening force for tightening the outer surface of the terminal tube 28.

  On the other hand, the pin 42 formed at the center of the outer peripheral rib 41 enters the terminal hole 29 provided in the terminal cylinder 28 as the cover plate 13 rotates and approaches the design surface 11, and the tip thereof is the inner surface of the terminal hole 29. Contact with. The tip of the pin 42 is formed obliquely so as to become higher toward the elastic hinge. For this reason, even if the cover plate 13 has an angle between the design surface 11 and the inner surface of the terminal hole 29 and the tip of the pin have an angle, the portion of the pin 42 far from the elastic hinge and the periphery of the terminal hole 29 The pins 42 can smoothly enter the terminal holes 29 without interfering with each other. The pin 42 is formed with the protrusion 43 described in FIG. 3 on the outer periphery, and the outer diameter of the protrusion 43 is larger than the inner diameter of the terminal hole 29. Therefore, when the pin 42 enters the terminal hole 29, the elastic pin 42 is compressed, and a repulsive force directed toward the inner surface of the terminal hole 29 is generated by the repulsive force.

  Further, when the cover plate 13 is substantially flush with the design surface 11, the outer peripheral rib 41 is further expanded by the terminal tube 28 to generate a large tightening force on the outer surface of the terminal tube 28. Further, the pin 42 is further inserted into the terminal hole 29 and compressed to generate a repulsive force on the inner surface thereof. When the cover plate 13 is substantially flush with the design surface 11, the holding force for holding the cover plate 13 in the closed state by the tightening force by the outer peripheral rib 41 and the repulsive force by the pin 42 is the cover plate 13 and the mounting arm 45. The repulsive force in the opening direction due to the deformation resistance of the elastic hinge formed in the vicinity of the joint portion is larger, and the cover plate 13 is held by the triple plug terminal 27.

  Thus, since the lid plate 13 is held by the triple plug terminal 27 by the tightening force by the outer peripheral rib 41 and the repulsive force by the pin 42, the holding force is increased, and the width of the mounting arm 45 formed on the lid plate 13 is increased. Even when the repulsive force in the opening direction due to the deformation resistance of the elastic hinge formed near the joint between the lid plate 13 and the mounting arm 45 is large, the lid plate 13 is held in the closed state to It can be held substantially the same as the design surface 11.

  As shown in FIG. 7, when opening the lid 12, contrary to the closing operation, the knob 14 is pulled out, and the force in the pulling direction applied to the lid plate 13 is the tightening force by the outer peripheral rib 41 and the pin 42. When the holding force for holding the lid 12 in the closed state due to the repulsive force of is exceeded, the lid plate 13 is gradually pulled out from the design surface 11. On the other hand, the attachment arm 45 provided on the lid 12 has the return claw 46 at the tip engaged with the engagement rib 33, and the movement in the thickness direction is restricted by the rib 26. Without moving in the direction, the cover plate 13 rotates around the rotation axis of the elastic hinge and opens.

  As the cover plate 13 is opened, the portion where the outer peripheral rib 41 is pushed and expanded by the terminal tube 28 and the portion where the repulsive force due to compression is generated by being inserted into the terminal hole 29 of the pin 42 are reduced. The holding force for holding the three plug terminals 27 is reduced. When the cover plate 13 is further rotated, the outer peripheral rib 41 and the pin 42 are detached from the outer surface of the terminal tube 28 and the inner surface of the terminal hole. Then, since the force to hold the lid plate 13 in the closed state is lost, the lid 12 is opened, and the male side plug can be inserted into the triple plug terminal 27 provided inside. Even when the lid 12 is opened, the lid 12 can be opened without interfering with the peripheral edge of the terminal hole 29 because the tip of the pin 42 is formed obliquely.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the return claw 46 has a simple configuration in which the V-shaped return claw 46 is provided at the tip of the mounting arm 45 of the lid 12 and is engaged with the engagement rib 33. Even when a large tensile force is applied to the engagement rib 33, the lid 12 can be easily removed. In the present embodiment, the lid 12 can be easily removed even when the cover 12 is attached to the main body 21 and the upper cover 23 and the lower cover 25 are not attached. In this case, it can be prevented that the lid 12 once attached is detached and assembly failure occurs. Furthermore, in this embodiment, when the lower cover 25 is assembled to the main body 21, the mounting arm 45 is sandwiched between the rib 26 of the lower cover 25 and the engaging rib 33, and a tensile force is applied to the mounting arm 45. At this time, the return claw 46 is prevented from being deformed and lifted away from the engagement rib 33 by the rib 26, so that deformation of the return claw 46 due to the tensile force is suppressed, and the return claw 46 is detached from the engagement rib 33. There is an effect that this can be further suppressed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the mounting arm 45 is configured to be restrained from being sandwiched between the two holding claws 35 and the inner surface of the plug storage chamber 19 and rotating around its longitudinal axis. For this reason, even if the lid 12 is open, it is possible to prevent the lid plate 13 from being glazed and reducing the operability of terminal connection.
