Description

  The present invention relates to an in-vehicle indoor device.

  Patent Document 1 describes “a lamp unit assembling method and mounting structure”.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the lamp unit includes a lamp function unit 301 having a light source (lamp), a wire harness 303, a holder 305 and a cover lens 307 constituting a design portion, and the wire harness 303 is preliminarily lamp-shaped. Connected to the functional unit 301.

  The lamp unit is assembled by first attaching the holder 305 to the lamp mounting window 311 provided on the roof trim 309 (part of the ceiling plate of the passenger compartment: interior wall material) and attaching the cover lens 307 to the holder 305. Then, the wire harness 303 is routed on the roof trim 309, the lamp function unit 301 is attached to the holder 305, and a ceiling-mounted product such as a rearview mirror is mounted on the roof trim 309 to complete the roof module 313.

Thereafter, the roof module 313 is transferred to the vehicle manufacturer and assembled to the ceiling plate of the vehicle body in the assembly line.
JP 2002-79879 A

  There are functions other than the lamp function part 301 among the function parts attached to the design part, and a plurality of function parts may be attached to the same design part.

  However, the lamp unit configured to directly attach the lamp function unit 301 to the holder 305 cannot support attaching a plurality of function units to the same design part.

  In order to attach a plurality of functional parts to the roof trim 309, for example, a necessary number of mounting windows 311 are provided in the roof trim 309, and a design part (a holder 305 and a cover lens 307) is attached to each of the mounting windows 311. It is necessary to attach a functional part to each of these design parts, and in some cases, the work of attaching the design part and the functional part must be performed by a vehicle manufacturer.

  Further, the roof module 313 on which the cover lens 307 and the lamp function unit 301 are mounted may be damaged on the light source of the cover lens 307 and the lamp function unit 301 during the transfer to the vehicle manufacturer.

  In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide an in-vehicle indoor device capable of easily attaching a plurality of functional units to a design unit at low cost.

The in-vehicle indoor device according to claim 1 is attached to a wire harness routed to an interior wall material forming a part of a ceiling plate of a vehicle, a functional unit connected to the wire harness, and the interior wall material. A design part to which the functional part is attached, and an in-vehicle indoor device provided with an inner housing attached to the design part in a state in which the functional part is attached, and the wire harness connected to each other After the functional part is attached to the inner housing, the inner housing is attached to the design part and attached to the interior wall material, and the interior wall material is attached to the ceiling plate.

  A second aspect of the invention is the in-vehicle indoor device according to the first aspect, wherein a plurality of the inner housings are used, and the plurality of inner housings are attached to the same design portion. And

  A third aspect of the present invention is the in-vehicle indoor device according to the first or second aspect, wherein the functional unit and the inner housing are connected when the wire harness is manufactured. .

  The in-vehicle indoor device according to the first aspect is configured such that the inner housing is provided, and the functional portion is attached to the inner housing, and then the inner housing is attached to the design portion.

  Therefore, even when a plurality of functional parts are used, each functional part is integrally mounted on the inner housing before being attached to the design part. Even if it exists, it is very easy and workability | operativity is good.

  In addition, since it is possible to attach a plurality of functional parts to the same design part by using an inner housing that is less expensive than the design part, compared to a configuration using a plurality of design parts in order to use a plurality of functional parts, Cost can be greatly reduced.

  Further, by interposing the inner housing between the design portion and the functional portion, the attaching operation between the design portion and the functional portion is facilitated and sufficient strength can be given to the attachment portion.

  In addition, the manufacturing process of the parts, from connecting the wire harness to the functional part, attaching the functional part to the inner housing, attaching the wire harness to the interior wall material that forms part of the ceiling board, and subassembly The subassembly is transported to the vehicle manufacturer together with the design part, the design part is attached to the interior wall material on the assembly line of the vehicle, the subassembly is attached to the installed design part, and the interior wall material is attached to the vehicle. Even when performing each process of attaching to the ceiling plate, the attachment of the inner housing (functional part) and the design part to the vehicle is easy as described above, and the workability is good.

Even when the subassembly is transferred to the vehicle manufacturer, the design portion is not attached to the subassembly, so that the lens of the design portion is not damaged and the light source of the functional portion is not damaged.
In addition, because the wire harness, functional part, and inner housing are sub-assembled, in the vehicle assembly line of the vehicle manufacturer, the design part is attached to the interior wall material, and the inner housing (functional part) is attached to the design part. Since the attachment of the functional part to the vehicle body (ceiling board) is completed simply by attaching the interior wall material to the ceiling board, workability is good.

  The on-vehicle indoor device of claim 2 can achieve the effect of the invention of claim 1.

  In general, the design part exposed in the vehicle interior is important for decoration, and it is likely to be expensive. The functional part has a uniform shape to improve versatility, and according to variations in the vehicle grade (grade). The number used and mounting position will be different.

  Therefore, according to the structure of this claim in which a plurality of inner housings (functional parts) are attached to the same design part, the design part and the functional part are provided by giving variations to the inner housing that is less expensive than the design part and the functional part. Therefore, even if a plurality of functional units are used, the cost can be reduced as a whole.

  The on-vehicle indoor device of claim 3 can achieve the effects of the invention of claim 1 or claim 2.

  Moreover, since the functional part and the inner housing are connected in advance, even when the sub-assembly of the wire harness, the functional part, and the inner housing is transferred to the vehicle manufacturer, it is conventionally used to protect the functional part during the transfer. Since the electrical component unit holder that has been used can be omitted, it is possible to save the labor of mounting the electrical component unit holder during transport and the labor of removing and collecting the electrical component unit holder at the vehicle assembly line of the vehicle manufacturer.

  The on-vehicle indoor device of claim 4 can achieve the effects of the inventions of claims 1 to 3.
