Description

  The present invention relates to a license plate holder mounting structure for mounting a license plate holder for mounting a license plate on a vehicle body by a screw screw.

A bracket (license plate holder) for mounting the license plate on the vehicle body is disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example.
The bracket disclosed in Patent Document 1 has a flat plate shape, and a flange is formed on the outer peripheral portion of the flat plate-shaped bracket. The flange can eliminate a gap between the bumper and the outer periphery of the bracket by joining the bumper. Eliminating the gap between the bumper and the outer periphery of the bracket improves the appearance when the license plate is attached to the bracket. The bracket is fastened and fixed to the bumper by a screw screw.
JP-A-6-127316

  For some reason, the bracket used may be removed and re-attached to the bumper, or the bracket used may be replaced with another bracket. When a screw screw is screwed into the bumper to attach the bracket to be used first to the bumper, the periphery of the screw screw screw hole on the surface of the bumper facing the bracket (the bumper surface portion around the screw screw) is raised. Since the bracket is dimensioned so that the flange contacts the bumper in the absence of the bulge, when the bulge occurs, the head of the screw screw hits the bulge before the flange contacts the bumper. As a result, the outer peripheral portion (flange) of the bracket may be separated from the surface of the bumper.

  Further, when the screw screw is removed, the bump remains on the bumper surface portion around the screw screw. Therefore, when the screw screw is screwed into the screw hole and the original bracket or a new bracket is attached to the bumper, the height of the rise is further increased due to the screw screw screwing. In other words, when the used bracket is reattached or replaced with a new bracket, a gap is generated between the outer periphery of the bracket and the bumper surface.

  The present invention can reduce the gap between the desired range of the outer periphery of the license plate holder and the vehicle body even when the bracket that has been used is reinstalled or replaced with a new bracket. The purpose is to do.

The present invention provides a license plate holder mounting structure in which a license plate holder for mounting a license plate is attached to a vehicle bumper made of synthetic resin with a screw screw. The license plate holder includes a plate-shaped plate-shaped portion and the plate. An annular flange formed on the outer periphery of the shape portion, the upper side of the flange contacts the bumper and the lower side of the flange does not contact the bumper, and the plate-shaped portion of the license plate holder with screw insertion portions having a hole for inserting the screw on the upper side is provided, in the bumper threaded portion opposed to screwing the screw thread is provided in the screw insertion portion, the distal end of the flange non no tightening by the screw in contact with the bumper In order with the state, and the screw inserting part, characterized in that there is space between the threaded portion.

  In a non-tightened state in which the license plate holder is simply applied to the mounting portion of the vehicle body, there is a space between the screw insertion portion of the screw screw in the license plate holder and the screwed portion of the screw screw in the mounting portion of the vehicle body. Exists. Even if there is a rise in the screw screw screw hole due to screw screw screwing, if the initial space part (space part in the untightened state) is set appropriately, even in the tightened state with screw screw tightening, A part of the license plate holder is surely in contact with the mounting portion of the vehicle body. This reliable contact is effective in reducing a gap between a desired range of the outer peripheral portion of the license plate holder and the vehicle body.

Further, the gap formed between the upper side of the license plate holder and the bumper has a particularly great influence on the appearance. If screwed a screw to the bumper, the tightening force of the screw is mutually attract an outer peripheral portion and the bumper of the upper side of the license plate holder, the gap between the outer peripheral portion and the bumper of the upper side of the license plate holder is reduced . That is, the configuration in which the screw screw insertion hole is provided on the upper side of the license plate holder is preferable in reducing the gap between the outer peripheral portion on the upper side of the license plate holder and the bumper .
If the screw screw is screwed into the mounting portion, the outer peripheral portion of the license plate holder and the bumper surface come into contact with each other.
Even if there is a bulge around the screw screw screw hole due to screw screw screwing in, if the initial space is set appropriately, a part of the license plate holder can be used even in the tightened state with screw screw tightening. Contacts the bumper securely. This reliable contact is effective in reducing the gap between the desired range of the outer periphery of the license plate holder and the bumper.
The synthetic resin bumper is advantageous for reducing the weight of the vehicle, but the rise generated in the screw-in hole by screwing the screw into the bumper is larger than that of the metal bumper. A configuration in which a synthetic resin bumper is an attachment target of the license plate holder is suitable as an application target of the present invention.

In a preferred example, the screw insertion portion is inclined with respect to a surface orthogonal to the screwing direction of the screw screw, and in an untightened state where the screw screw is not tightened, the upper portion of the screw insertion portion and the screw insertion portion The space between the head of the screw screw is inclined so as to be smaller than the space between the lower portion of the screw insertion portion and the head of the screw screw.
In a preferred example, the screw screw insertion hole is provided on the upper side of the license plate holder, and the screw insertion portion has a space in the space between the upper portion of the screw insertion portion and the bumper. , And is inclined with respect to the facing surface of the bumper so as to be larger than the space in the space between the lower portion of the screw insertion portion and the bumper .

That is, the space | interval in the space part between a screw insertion part and the opposing surface of the bumper which opposes this screw insertion part is that the upper part side is larger than the lower part side. Therefore, if the screw screw is screwed into the bumper , the tightening force of the screw screw attracts the outer peripheral portion on the upper side of the license plate holder and the bumper surface in particular, and the gap between the upper outer peripheral portion of the license plate holder and the bumper surface. The gap becomes smaller.
In a preferred example, the screwed portion is formed so as to protrude from the front side to the back side of the bumper.

In a preferred example, a plurality of protrusions are provided on the outer peripheral portion so as to face the bumper , and any one of the plurality of protrusions contacts the mounting portion of the vehicle body.

When the screw screw is screwed into the bumper , the plurality of protrusions and the bumper surface come into contact with each other. By unifying the heights of the plurality of protrusions, the size of the gap between the outer periphery of the license plate holder and the bumper surface is unified.

  The present invention is excellent in that the gap between the desired range of the outer periphery of the license plate holder and the vehicle body can be reduced even when the bracket that has been used is reinstalled or replaced with a new bracket. Has an effect.

Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
As shown in FIG. 1, a license plate holder 12 to which a license plate 11 is attached is attached to a bumper 10 that is a part of a vehicle body. The license plate holder 12 made of synthetic resin includes a rectangular plate-shaped plate portion 13 and an annular flange 14 integrally formed around the plate portion 13. The license plate holder 12 can be joined to the synthetic resin bumper 10 via the tip 141 of the flange 14. In the present embodiment, the license plate holder 12 is made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) resin, and the bumper 10 that is a mounting portion of the vehicle body is made of polypropylene resin.

  A pair of truncated cone-shaped screw insertion portions 15A and 15B (only one is shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, but both are shown in FIG. 1) protrude from the back surface of the plate portion 13 of the license plate holder 12. It is formed as follows. A seat 153 is formed at the center of the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B so as to protrude from the back surface side of the plate portion 13 toward the front surface side. An insertion hole 151 is provided through the center portion of the seat 153 and the center portion of the flat plate portion 152. The flat plate portion 152 is parallel to the plate portion 13.

  The screw insertion portions 15 </ b> A and 15 </ b> B are formed near the upper corner of the rectangular plate-shaped license plate holder 12. The position of the screw insertion portion 15A is provided near the upper corner of the license plate holder 12 as compared with the position of the right hole 121 shown in FIG. The position of the screw insertion portion 15B is provided closer to the upper corner of the license plate holder 12 than the position of the left hole 121 shown in FIG. That is, the interval between the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B is larger than half of the long side 131 of the plate portion 13, and the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B are above the intermediate position of the short sides 132 and 133 of the plate portion 13. Is provided.

  As shown in FIG. 2A, the front side of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B (the front side of the license plate holder 12 and the left side of the license plate holder 12 in FIG. 2A) is a recess. . 2A and 2B show a state in which the license plate holder 12 is applied to the bumper 10 through the tip of the flange 14.

  The bumper 10 has a pair of cylindrical screw-in portions 16A and 16B (only one is shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, but both are shown in FIG. 1) so as to protrude from the front side to the back side of the bumper 10. Is formed. A screw hole 161 that penetrates from the front side to the back side of the bumper 10 is formed in the screw parts 16A and 16B. In a state where the license plate holder 12 is joined to the bumper 10 via the tip of the flange 14, the insertion hole 151 of one screw insertion portion 15A faces the screw insertion hole 161 of one screw insertion portion 16A, and the other screw insertion portion 15B. This insertion hole 151 faces the screw hole 161 of the other screw part 16B. In this state, the plate surface of the plate portion 13 and the hole direction of the screw-in hole 161 (the direction indicated by the arrow Q in FIG. 2B) are substantially orthogonal.

  2A and 2B, the insertion hole 151 of one screw insertion portion 15A and the screw insertion hole 161 of one screw insertion portion 16A face each other, and the insertion hole 151 of the other screw insertion portion 15B and the other The state which the screwing hole 161 of the screwing part 16B opposes is shown. In this state, the tip 141 of the flange 14 </ b> A on the long side 131 of the rectangular plate portion 13 and the tips 141 of the flanges 14 </ b> B and 14 </ b> C on the short sides 132 and 133 of the plate portion 13 contact the bumper 10. A space S1 is generated between the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B and the screw-in portions 16A and 16B. Flange 14D (shown in FIG. 1) other than flanges 14A, 14B, and 14C does not contact bumper 10.

  When viewed in the plate surface direction of the plate portion 13 of the license plate holder 12 and the short side direction of the rectangular plate shape (the direction of the arrow R1 in FIG. 1), the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B is a rectangular plate. The flange portion 14 </ b> A on the long side 131 of the shaped plate portion 13 is retracted to the plate portion 13 side from the tip 141. Further, when viewed in the plate surface direction of the plate portion 13 of the license plate holder 12 and the longitudinal direction of the rectangular plate shape (the direction of the arrow R2 in FIG. 1), the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B is rectangular. The plate-shaped plate portion 13 is retracted to the plate portion 13 side from the front ends 141 of the flanges 14B and 14C on the short sides 132 and 133.

  The height d1 of the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portion 15A (the height from the front surface of the plate portion 13 to the corresponding surface 150 of the flat plate portion 152) and the portion A1 of the tip 141 of the flange 14A closest to the screw insertion portion 15A [FIG. The difference L1 from the height D (shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2B) (the height from the front surface of the plate portion 13) is set to 7 mm or more, for example. Similarly, the height d2 of the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portion 15B (the height from the front surface of the plate portion 13 to the corresponding surface 150 of the flat plate portion 152) and the portion of the tip 141 of the flange 14A closest to the screw insertion portion 15A A difference L2 from the height D (height from the front surface of the plate portion 13) of A2 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 2B) is set to 7 mm or more, for example. In the present embodiment, the heights d1 and d2 are the same size, and the differences L1 and L2 are the same size.

  The height d1 of the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portion 15A and the height D (shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2B) of the tip B 141 of the flange 14B closest to the screw insertion portion 15A (of the plate portion 13). The difference L3 from the height from the front surface is set to 0.7 mm or more, for example. Similarly, the height d2 of the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portion 15B and the height D (from the front surface of the plate portion 13) of the portion C1 (shown in FIG. 1) of the tip 141 of the flange 14B closest to the screw insertion portion 15B. The difference L4 from the height is set to 0.7 mm or more, for example. In this embodiment, the differences L3 and L4 are the same.

  Since the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B is retracted to the plate portion 13 side with respect to the front end 141 of the flanges 14A, 14B and 14C, the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B and the screw portions 16A and 16B A space S1 is generated between the two. That is, in a state where the license plate holder 12 is simply applied to the bumper 10 that is the mounting portion of the vehicle body, a space S1 is generated between the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B and the screwed portions 16A and 16B. At this time, the spacing K (the distance between the flat surfaces 152 and the opposed surfaces 150 and 162 of the screwed portions 16A and 16B) in the space S1 is set to 0.7 to 2.0 mm, for example.

  As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, after the license plate holder 12 is joined (assigned) to the bumper 10 via the tips 141 of the flanges 14A, 14B, and 14C, the license plate holder 12 is The screw screws 17A and 17B (shown in FIG. 1) to be screwed into the bumper 10 are fastened to the bumper 10. The screw screw 17A passes through the insertion hole 151 of the screw insertion portion 15A and is screwed into the screw insertion hole 161 of the screw insertion portion 16A. The screw screw 17B passes through the insertion hole 151 of the screw insertion portion 15A and the screw insertion hole 161 of the screw insertion portion 16B. Screwed into. FIG. 2C shows a state in which the screw screws 17A and 17B are screwed into the screw holes 161 of the screw parts 16A and 16B. The heads 171 of the screw screws 17 </ b> A and 17 </ b> B enter the concave portions on the front side of the screw insertion portions 15 </ b> A and 15 </ b> B in a state where they are in contact with the seat 153.

  Even in the state of FIG. 2C, a space S2 is generated between the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B and the screwed portions 16A and 16B. By tightening the screw screws 17A and 17B, the license plate holder 12 and the bumper 10 are elastically deformed, and the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B and the screw-in portions 16A and 16B are pulled toward each other. Accordingly, the interval K in the space S2 in the state of FIG. 2C is smaller than the interval K in the initial space S1 shown in FIGS.

  The license plate 11 is mounted on the front surface of the plate portion 13 of the license plate holder 12 as shown in FIG. 2C by tightening a screw 18 screwed into a hole 121 formed in the license plate holder 12. The heads 171 of the screw screws 17A, 17B entering the concave portions on the front side of the screw insertion portions 15A, 15B do not contact the license plate 11.

In the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) When the screw screws 17A, 17B are screwed into the screw holes 161 of the screw portions 16A, 16B, the space portion S1 becomes smaller with the tips 141 of the flanges 14A, 14B, 14C contacting the bumper 10. . Due to the screwing of the screw screws 17A and 17B, a bulge M (shown in FIG. 2C) may occur on the facing surface 162 on the screwed portions 16A and 16B side. Even when there is such a bulge M, the contact between the tip 141 of the flange 14A on the long side 131 and the bumper 10 and the contact between the tip 141 of the flange 14B, 14C on the short side 132, 133 and the bumper 10 It is maintained even after the screws 17A and 17B are screwed. That is, if the size of the gap K in the initial space portion S1 is set appropriately, the front end 141 and the short side 132 of the flange 14A in the long side 131 can be tightened even when the screw screws 17A and 17B are tightened. The front ends 141 of the flanges 14 </ b> B and 14 </ b> C at 133 contact the bumper 10 with certainty.

  For some reason, the used license plate holder 12 is removed and the license plate holder 12 is reattached to the bumper 10, or the used license plate holder 12 used is replaced with another license plate holder. There are things to do. When the swell M is generated, the swell M remains in the screwed portions 16A and 16B around the screw hole 161 when the screw screws 17A and 17B fixing the license plate holder 12 to the bumper 10 are removed. Therefore, when the screw screws 17A and 17B are screwed into the screw holes 161 and the original license plate holder or a new license plate holder is attached to the bumper 10, the height of the bulge M is higher than that of the screw screws 17A and 17B. Therefore, it becomes bigger. However, the presence of the space S1 in the non-tightened state (the state shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B) in which the license plate holder 12 is simply applied to the bumper 10 indicates that the tip 141 of the flanges 14A, 14B, and 14C is To ensure you always touch.

  This reliable contact is caused by a desired range of the outer peripheral portion of the license plate holder 12 (in this embodiment, the tip 141 of the flange 14A on the long side 131 and a part of the tip 141 of the flanges 14B and 14C on the short sides 132 and 133). ) And the bumper 10 is reduced or made zero.

  (2) The insertion holes 151 of the screw screws 17 </ b> A and 17 </ b> B are provided near the upper corner of the license plate holder 12. When the screw screws 17A and 17B are screwed into the screw holes 161, the tightening force of the screw screws 17A and 17B causes the upper peripheral portion of the license plate holder 12 (the flange 14A on the long side 131 and the flange 14B on the short sides 132 and 133, 14C) and the bumper 10 surface. That is, the configuration in which the insertion holes 151 of the screw screws 17A and 17B are provided on the upper side of the license plate holder 12 is to reduce the gap between the outer peripheral portion on the upper side of the license plate holder 12 and the surface of the bumper 10. preferable.

  (3) The synthetic resin bumper 10 is advantageous for reducing the weight of the vehicle, but the rise M generated around the screw hole 161 by screwing the screw screws 17A and 17B into the bumper 10 is larger than that of the metal bumper. Become bigger. In other words, when a conventional license plate holder (for example, a bracket disclosed in Patent Document 1) is attached to a synthetic resin bumper, a gap generated between the outer periphery of the conventional license plate holder and the bumper tends to be particularly large. . The presence of the space S1 in the non-tightened state where the license plate holder 12 is simply applied to the bumper 10 has an adverse effect of the bulge M that tends to increase in the case of the synthetic resin bumper 10 (the outer peripheral portion of the license plate holder 12 and the bumper 10). This is particularly effective for avoiding the generation of a gap between the two. Therefore, a configuration in which the synthetic resin bumper 10 is an attachment target of the license plate holder 12 is suitable as an application target of the present invention.

Next, a second embodiment shown in FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 3C will be described. The same reference numerals are used for the same components as those in the first embodiment.
As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the flat plate portion 152A of the screw insertion portion 15A is inclined with respect to both the plate surface direction of the plate portion 13 and the direction of the arrow Q.

  3A and 3B show a state in which the license plate holder 12 is simply applied to the bumper 10. In this state, the flat plate portion 152 of the pair of screw insertion portions (only the screw insertion portion 15A is shown in the figure) is in relation to the plate portion 13 so that the upper portion 154 side is closer to the plate portion 13 than the lower portion 155 side. Tilted. In other words, the flat plate portion 152 has a screwed portion 16A so that the interval K1 in the space portion S1 between the upper portion 154 and the screwed portion 16A is larger than the interval K2 in the space portion S1 between the lower portion 155 and the screwed portion 16A. It is inclined with respect to the front surface (facing surface 162 of the screwed portion 16A facing the flat plate portion 152). The front end 156 of the seat 153 is parallel to the flat plate portion 152. That is, the tip 156 of the seat 153 is also inclined with respect to the plate portion 13.

  FIG. 3C shows a state in which a pair of screw screws (only the screw screw 17 </ b> A is shown) is screwed into the screw hole 161. Since the flat plate portion 152 and the tip 156 of the seat 153 are inclined with respect to the plate portion 13, the head 171 of the screw screw 17 </ b> A abuts on a portion on the upper side 154 side of the tip 156 of the seat 153, thereby The force is applied exclusively to the upper 154 side portion at the tip of the seat 153. Accordingly, the tightening force of the screw screw 17A effectively draws the outer peripheral portion (the flange 14A on the long side 131 and the flanges 14B and 14C on the short sides 132 and 133) on the upper side of the license plate holder 12 and the surface of the bumper 10. Fit. Further, even after the lower portion 155 side contacts the bumper 10, the screw screw 17A can be further screwed in so that the upper portion 154 side can be brought closer to the bumper 10, and the flanges 14A, 14B, 14C and the surface of the bumper 10 can be drawn closer together. it can.

  That is, the flat plate portion 152 is inclined with respect to the plate portion 13 and the opposed surface 162 so that the interval K1 between the upper portion 154 and the screwed portion 16A is larger than the interval K2 between the lower portion 155 and the screwed portion 16A. Is a more preferable configuration for reducing the gaps between the flanges 14A, 14B, 14C and the surface of the bumper 10 on the long side 131 and the short sides 132, 133.

Next, the third embodiment shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B will be described. The same reference numerals are used for the same components as those in the first embodiment.
A plurality of protrusions 142 are integrally formed at the tip 141 of the flange 14. In the illustrated example, three protrusions 142 are provided on the flange 14A, and two protrusions 142 are provided on the flanges 14B and 14C. The height H of the protrusions 142 is set, for example, in the range of 0.3 to 0.5 mm, and the heights H of the plurality of protrusions 142 are unified.

  When a pair of screw screws (only the screw screw 17 </ b> A is shown in the drawing) is screwed into the screw hole 161, any of the plurality of protrusions 142 provided so as to face the bumper 10 contacts the surface of the bumper 10. By unifying the heights H of the plurality of protrusions 142, the outer peripheral portion on the upper side of the license plate holder 12 (the tip 141 of the flange 14 </ b> A and the tips 141 of the flanges 14 </ b> B and 14 </ b> C) and the surface of the bumper 10. The size of the gap is unified. Such unification of the size of the gap improves the appearance.

Next, a fourth embodiment shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B will be described. The same reference numerals are used for the same components as those in the first embodiment.
A cylindrical projection 19 is integrally formed on the flat plate portion 152 of the screw insertion portion 15A, 15B so as to protrude toward the bumper 10 side. The cylindrical projection 19 is provided around the insertion hole 151 away from the insertion hole 151. That is, the insertion hole 151 is located at the center of the projection 19 in the cylinder when viewed in the direction of penetration of the insertion hole 151.

  5B and 5C show a state where a pair of screw screws (only the screw screw 17A is shown in the figure) is screwed into the screw hole 161 and the license plate holder 12 is fastened and fixed to the bumper 10. FIG. In this state, when viewed in the penetration direction of the insertion hole 151, the screw hole 161 is located at the center of the protrusion 19 in the cylinder, and the tip of the protrusion 19 is in contact with the bumper 10. That is, there is a space S between the facing surface 150 on the flat plate portion 152 side and the facing surface 162 on the screwed portion 16A side. Therefore, even when the bulge M occurs around the screw hole 161 due to the screw screw 17A being screwed in, the tips 141 of the flanges 14A, 14B, and 14C are surely in contact with the bumper 10.

  Note that the plate portion 13A of the license plate holder 12 is formed in a curved shape, and the license plate 11 contacts only the vicinity of the outer peripheral portion of the plate portion 13A. The configuration in which the plate portion 13A is curved is effective in improving the appearance by eliminating the gap between the outer peripheral portion of the license plate 11 and the license plate holder 12.

In the present invention, the following embodiments are also possible.
In the first to fourth embodiments, three or more screw insertion portions may be provided on the upper side of the license plate holder 12. For example, in addition to the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B, another screw insertion portion may be provided near the middle between the screw insertion portions 15A and 15B.

In the first to fourth embodiments, another screw insertion portion may be provided on the lower side of the license plate holder 12 .

The technical idea that can be grasped from the embodiment described above will be described below.
