Description

  BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure of a pillar garnish mounted on the inner side of a pillar portion of a vehicle body, and more particularly to a pillar garnish structure of a vehicle provided with a region that opens when an airbag is deployed.

A curtain airbag device has been developed that deploys an airbag between a vehicle body side wall and an occupant when a vehicle collides.
This curtain airbag device is housed from the front pillar to the roof side rail and then to the rear pillar when the airbag is folded. When an impact is input, the airbag expands by blowing out high-pressure gas from the inflator. It is supposed to be. The folded airbag is covered with pillar garnish and roof lining on the inside of the passenger compartment, and when an impact is input, the pillar garnish and a part of the roof line are pushed open by the thrust of high-pressure gas. ing.

  By the way, the airbag of the curtain airbag device is usually arranged in a range that spans the entire area of the roof side rail portion and each part of the front pillar portion and the rear pillar portion. A part of the extending direction is partially pushed open. For this reason, when the airbag is deployed at the pillar portion, the airbag to be deployed is subjected to great resistance by the pillar garnish, making it difficult to control the deployment posture of the airbag.

For this reason, a pillar garnish structure capable of coping with this is devised in which a thin rupture induction part is formed in the pillar garnish and the pillar garnish is broken at the rupture induction part when the airbag is deployed. (See Patent Document 1).
JP 2000-335358 A

  However, this conventional pillar garnish structure suppresses an increase in unnecessary deployment resistance of the airbag by forming a thin rupture induction portion in advance in the pillar garnish. If the rupture induction part is formed thin so that it can be easily broken, the rupture induction part is likely to be damaged when the pillar garnish is assembled to the vehicle body or when the pillar garnish is transported before the vehicle body is assembled. Another problem is concerned.

  Therefore, the present invention is to provide a vehicle pillar garnish structure capable of suppressing an increase in unnecessary deployment resistance of an air bag without impairing handleability at the time of assembling the vehicle body or at the time of transportation before assembling the vehicle body. To do.

It is designed to be clamped in two steps by the spaced apart auxiliary clamping piece 38, but at the upper position of the substantially U-shaped space surrounded by the upper support frame member 9A and the lower locking frame member 9B, The folded airbag 5 is arranged as shown in FIG. When the airbag 5 is deployed, the lower edge of the garnish lid 8 by the garnish main body 7 and the lower locking frame member 9B is released by the thrust of the airbag 5 that is about to jump downward, and the garnish lid 8 The lower edge is pushed open toward the inside of the vehicle as shown by the chain line in FIG. The locking load on the auxiliary clamping piece 38 with respect to the garnish lid 8 is set larger than the locking load on the locking flange 37.

  In the pillar garnish 3 described above, the garnish main body 7, the garnish lid 8, and the garnish frame 9 are configured as separate members, but these three members are assembled in advance before being assembled to the vehicle body. Then, the pillar garnish 3 assembled in advance in this way is conveyed as it is to the vehicle body assembly position, and is assembled to the vehicle body together with other interior members such as the roof lining 4 by a clip or the like.

  When the airbag 5 is actually deployed, when the airbag 5 presses the lower edge of the garnish lid 8 from the inside, the lower edge of the garnish lid 8 is detached from the sandwiched portion between the garnish body 7 and the lower locking frame member 9B. The lower edge of the garnish lid 8 is pushed open to the inside of the vehicle centering on a hinge fulcrum I (see FIG. 3) that connects the coupling portion by the clip 22 and the coupling portion by the bolt 19. Is relatively displaced with respect to the bolt 19 at the portion of the long hole 18 and is largely pulled out to the inside of the vehicle along the lower boundary portion a. For this reason, the garnish lid 8 smoothly and largely opens the deployment opening of the airbag 5 without receiving a large restraining force on the rear end side. Therefore, when this mounting structure is adopted, an increase in unnecessary deployment resistance of the airbag 5 can be suppressed.

  In this pillar garnish 3, a substantially U-shaped garnish frame 9 is arranged on the back side of the garnish lid 8, and an upper region of the garnish lid 8 is formed by clips 10 and 22 via an upper support frame member 9 </ b> A of the garnish frame 9. While being fixed to the rear pillar 1, the lower edge portion of the garnish lid 8 is locked to the garnish body 7 via the lower locking frame member 9 B of the garnish frame 9, and the tongue piece 14 at the rear end of the garnish lid 8 is further fixed. The lower end is coupled to the garnish body 7 by a long hole 18 and a bolt 19 so as to be relatively displaceable along the extending direction of the lower boundary portion a. It can be reliably maintained, and the handleability does not deteriorate.

  In particular, in the pillar garnish 3 of this embodiment, the vicinity of the corner area of the terminal of the lower edge of the garnish lid 8 is connected by the long hole 18 and the bolt 19, so that the lower edge of the garnish lid 8 is connected to the lower boundary portion a. There is an advantage that the garnish lid 8 can be quickly opened and positioned and fixed accurately in a direction intersecting the extending direction of the garnish.

  In the pillar garnish 3, the upper region of the garnish lid 8 is reinforced by the upper support frame member 9A of the garnish frame 9, and the lower locking frame member 9B of the garnish frame 9 fixed to the garnish body 7 is used. Since the lower edge of the garnish lid 8 is clamped and fixed, the rigidity of the upper region of the garnish lid 8 can be increased and the lower region can be held with tension, and the lower region of the garnish lid 8 and the garnish body The building accuracy between 7 can be increased.

  Further, in the case of this pillar garnish 3, since the tongue piece 14 at the rear end of the garnish lid 8 is sandwiched between the garnish main body 7 and the garnish frame 9, it is coupled by the long hole 18 and the bolt 19, so that the tongue The movement of the front and back direction of the one part 14 can be suppressed, the positioning accuracy of the garnish lid 8 can be increased, and the pull-out operation of the garnish lid 8 along the extending direction of the lower boundary a when the airbag 5 is deployed. Can be stabilized.

  In the pillar garnish 3, since the three members of the garnish main body 7, the garnish lid 8, and the garnish frame 9 are positioned and fixed by the screw 15 at the rear end position of the garnish lid, the installation accuracy of these three members is increased. In addition, it is possible to prevent the positional displacement of the three members during transport.
