Description

  The present invention relates to a hook mounting structure provided on an instrument panel to suspend a bag for storing small articles or garbage, and more specifically, a center lower and an instrument of an instrument panel with a center lower. The present invention relates to a hook mounting structure in the case where a hook is provided at a portion where a panel is wrapped.

  In the vehicle, there is a case where a hook capable of suspending a bag or the like for storing small items and garbage is provided as part of improving the comfort. For example, techniques such as a headrest portion of a seat back (Patent Document 1) and a case where it is provided on the back surface of a seat (Patent Document 2) have already been disclosed.

  Moreover, as a case where the passenger | crew of a vehicle front seat uses, a hook may be provided in an instrument panel. For example, Patent Document 3 discloses a hook disposed on the passenger seat side peripheral portion of the instrument panel so as to protrude upward from the instrument panel surface. Thus, in the structure which attaches a hook to an instrument panel, it has a structure which attaches a hook member to an instrument panel with a screw tapping.

  However, when the hook member is fastened and fixed to the instrument panel with a screw tapping or the like, a part called a screw tapping is required in addition to the hook member. In addition, a process for attachment is required. Furthermore, since the tip of the screw tapping is in a drill shape, it can be attached anywhere to the instrument panel mainly made of resin. On the contrary, this means that a separate means for regulating the mounting position is required. In other words, in addition to the parts and processes, further contrivance is required, and there is a problem that the cost increases.

  In order to solve this, it is conceivable that an attachment position is provided on the instrument panel side in advance and is locked there with a fitting claw or the like. If it does in this way, another part for fastening will become unnecessary and the attachment process will also become simple. However, providing the fitting claws on the front side of the instrument panel has many restrictions in terms of design and finish. Therefore, it is conceivable to attach a hook member from the back surface of the instrument panel.

  However, the mounting position of the hook is mainly below the chest of the seated occupant. There existed a subject that there exists a possibility that it may fall to the instrument panel back surface. The present invention has been conceived in view of the above problems, and does not require a fastening part other than the hook member, is not restricted in design, and does not cause the hook to be detached and dropped due to an unexpected impact. A hook mounting structure is provided.

In order to achieve the above object, the hook mounting structure of the present invention comprises:
A hook mounting structure provided on the lap portion of the instrument panel and the center lower,
The center lower is provided with a hook mounting hole,
A fitting claw is disposed around the hook mounting hole on the back side of the center lower,
The hook has a mounting seat in which a step-like hook side slope portion is formed on the back surface,
In the instrument panel, a stepped receiving inclined surface portion is formed at a position corresponding to the position where the hook is provided,
The hook is inserted through the hook mounting hole from the back surface to the front surface of the center lower by fitting and fastening the mounting seat with the fitting claw,
The hook side inclined surface portion and the inclined surface of the receiving inclined surface portion are close to each other at a position where the inclined surfaces face each other.

  According to the present invention, the hook is attached to the lap portion of the instrument panel and the center lower part of the instrument panel, and the hook seat is provided on the back surface of the hook member, and the instrument panel side corresponding to the hook member is provided. Since the receiving slopes are provided so that the slopes come close to each other at opposite positions, even if an unexpected force is applied to the hooks from the front side, the inclined members come into contact with each other so that the hook members are centered. It can prevent falling to the back side of the lower.

  In addition, since the hook is fastened with a fitting claw from the back side of the center lower, it is not necessary to prepare a separate member for fastening, and at the same time the hook mounting part is hidden behind the center lower, so it looks good as an interior design. . Further, since the attachment position is formed at the same time as the formation of the center lower, a means for regulating the attachment position is not particularly required. Further, since the hook member is pushed out from the back side of the center lower to the front side and is simply locked with the fitting claw, the assembly process is also easy. From these things, the effect that cost can be reduced can be acquired.

It is a figure which shows the arrangement | positioning part of the hook attachment structure of this invention. It is a figure which shows the external appearance of the hook member of this invention. It is a figure which shows the case where a hook member is attached to the back surface of a center lower. It is a figure which shows the receiving slope part by the side of an instrument panel. It is a figure which shows a mode that the receiving slope part of an instrument panel receives a hook member, when force is added to the hook member by which the center lower was carried out fastening from the front side.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the following description exemplifies an embodiment of the present invention, and is not limited to the following embodiment. The following embodiments may be changed without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

  FIG. 1 illustrates a place where the hook mounting structure 1 of the present invention is installed. The handle is not shown. The hook mounting structure 1 of the present invention uses a place where a front member 90 on which the hook member 2 is arranged and a back member 91 that supports the hook member 2 falling on the back overlap. In particular, in the present invention, a center lower 3 coupled to the instrument panel 5 and an overlapping portion (also referred to as a “wrap portion”) of the instrument panel 5 are used.

  An opening for installing various devices is installed at the center of the instrument panel 5, and a skeleton portion 4 for supporting the opening is formed. The center lower 3 is arranged and fixed so as to further cover the center portion. Here, when the center lower 3 is installed, a part of the side part 3a of the center lower and the side face 4a of the skeleton part partially overlaps. The hook mounting structure 1 of the present invention is installed on the side surface portion 3 a of the center lower 3. Here, the center lower 3 is the front member 90, and the skeleton portion 4 is the back member 91.

  In particular, the side surface portion 3a of the center lower 3 of the passenger seat is suitable because it can suspend a bag or the like for storing small items and garbage without affecting the steering system. Of course, if there is a portion where the front member and the back member overlap on the center lower side surface portion 3a on the driver's seat side and the rear surface of the seat back, the hook mounting structure 1 of the present invention may be disposed on the lap portion. .

  The hook member 2 is fastened from the back side of the center lower 3 to a hook mounting hole 3b formed in the center lower 3, and the center lower 3 is fixed to the instrument panel 5 in this state.

  FIG. 2A shows an enlarged view of the hook member 2. The hook member 2 has a hook surface 2 b on which the hook 2 a is formed and a mounting seat 2 c for fixing the hook member 2 to the center lower 3. These are preferably integrally formed, but may be separate members.

  FIG. 2B shows a view of the hook member 2 as seen from the back side. A slope is formed on the back surface of the mounting seat 2 c, which becomes the hook-side sloped surface portion 10. The inclined surface of the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 is formed to be inclined upward with respect to the hook member 2. This is because a force is often applied to the hook member 2 from below, as will be described later. FIG. 2B shows a state in which the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 is formed on the frame 2d extending from the mounting seat 2c in the mounting seat rear surface direction. The slopes (10a and 10b and 10c and 10d) formed on the left and right sides of the frame 2d form the same surface.

  This is because, as will be described later, the receiving-side slope formed on the instrument panel 5 side is formed by one and the same surface. Therefore, the way of forming the hook side inclined surface portion 10 may be changed depending on the way of forming the receiving side inclined surface. In this sense, of the slopes formed on the left and right frames 2d, one slope may be left and the other slopes may be deleted. For example, the hook-side inclined surface portion 10b may be scraped off (or not formed from the beginning) while leaving the hook-side inclined surface portion 10a. The same applies to the hook-side inclined surface portions 10c and 10d.

  2B shows a case where two sets (10a and 10b and 10c and 10d) of the hook-side inclined surface portions 10 are formed, it is sufficient that at least one or more hook-side inclined surface portions 10 are formed. The hook-side inclined surface portion 10 is formed substantially parallel to the horizontal line 2h of the hook member 2, but an inclined surface may be formed obliquely with respect to the horizontal line 2h of the hook member 2.

  3A shows a state where the hook mounting hole 3b is viewed from the back surface 3R of the center lower 3. FIG. The hook mounting hole 3b is formed in a size that allows the hook surface 2b to pass through so that the hook surface 2b of the hook member 2 comes out on the surface of the center lower 3. A fitting claw 12 for fastening the hook member 2 is disposed around the hook mounting hole 3b. FIG. 3A shows a case where the fitting claws 12 are arranged at four locations around the hook attachment hole 3b. In FIG.3 (b), the cross-sectional shape (AA) of the fitting nail | claw 12 is shown. The fitting claw 12 has an inclined surface 12a on the upper side, and is formed so that the mounting seat 2c of the hook member 2 can be easily pushed. Further, a return portion 12 b is formed in the fitting claw 12, and the mounting seat 2 c is fitted between the return portion 12 b and the back surface 3 </ b> R of the center lower 3.

  FIG. 3C shows a state where the hook member 2 is attached. The mounting seat 2 c of the hook member 2 is fitted between the return portion 12 b of the fitting claw 12 and the back surface 3 R of the center lower 3, and the hook member 2 is fastened to the center lower 3.

  The arrangement place and the number of the arrangement of the fitting claws 12 are not limited to those shown in FIG. 3, and the form of the fitting claws 12 is not particularly limited as long as it has the return portion 12b. Therefore, when the center lower 3 is formed of resin or the like, the shape, location, and number of arrangements can be appropriately set according to the state of being removed from the mold.

  FIG. 4 shows a receiving inclined surface portion 14 formed on the side surface 4 a of the skeleton portion 4 of the instrument panel 5. Reference numeral 15 denotes a through hole formed in the instrument panel 5 and is not particularly relevant to the present invention. In FIG. 4, the receiving inclined surface portion 14 corresponding to the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 of the hook member 2 is shown, but as described above, as long as it corresponds to the hook-side inclined surface portion 10, it is not necessary to be limited to this shape. . Accordingly, it is preferable that the inclination angles of the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 and the receiving inclined surface portion 14 are different from each other up and down and substantially coincide with each other. Further, the hook member 2 and the receiving inclined surface portion 14 are formed so that the hook side inclined surface portion 10 is located at a position facing the receiving inclined surface portion 14.

  Here, the position where the hook side inclined surface portion 10 faces the receiving inclined surface portion 14 means a positional relationship where the inclined surfaces face each other, and includes a position where a part of each inclined surface faces. This is because the inclined surfaces collide with each other when the hook member 2 collides with the receiving inclined surface portion 14 by an external force, thereby preventing the hook member 2 from falling off. In addition, such a positional relationship may be said that the receiving inclined surface portion 14 of the instrument panel 5 is formed at a position corresponding to the position where the hook of the center lower 3 is provided.

  FIG. 5 shows a cross-sectional view when the center lower 3 to which the hook member 2 is fastened is fitted to the instrument panel 5. As described above, in the hook member 2, the mounting seat 2c is fitted and fastened by the fitting claw 12 of the center lower 3 and the center lower back surface 3R, and the hook side inclined surface portion 10 formed on the back surface of the mounting seat 2c is installed in the instrument. The ment panel 5 is directed toward the skeleton part side surface 4a. The instrument panel 5 is formed with a receiving inclined surface portion 14.

  When the center lower 3 is fixed to the instrument panel 5, the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 and the receiving inclined surface portion 14 are fixed so as to ensure a gap of a predetermined interval 18 (about 2 to 3 mm). In other words, the inclined surfaces are fixed close to each other. This is because it is difficult for the lap portion to be in close contact with the instrument panel 5 over the entire surface, and if they are positioned too close to each other, chattering noise may be generated due to vibrations in the engine and running.

  FIG. 5B shows a state where a force 20 is applied to the hook member 2 from the surface side of the center lower 3. Since the hook is installed at a location close to the feet of the occupant, a force may be applied from the front surface of the center lower 3 to the back side when the occupant hits the feet. When the hook is not screwed with a screw tapping or the like, the hook member 2 may be disengaged by such a force, and the hook member 2 may fall off to the back side of the center lower 3.

  However, in the hook mounting structure 1 of the present invention, when the center lower 3 is deflected to the back side by the force 20 from the front side, the hook side inclined surface portion 10 on the back side of the hook member 2 is inclined to receive the instrument panel 5. By colliding with the surface portion 14 and the receiving inclined surface portion 14 supporting the hook member 2, the hook member 2 is prevented from falling off from the center lower 3.

  In particular, since the occupant's feet move from the lower side to the upper side, the force from the surface of the center lower 3 is often the force from the lower side to the upper side, and the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 of the hook member 2 is On the contrary, it is preferable that the receiving inclined surface portion 14 of the instrument panel 5 is provided so as to be inclined downward.

  As described above, in the hook mounting structure 1 of the present invention, the hook member 2 is fastened to the center lower 3 from the back surface by the fitting claws 12, and the hook-side inclined surface portion 10 is formed on the back surface of the fastened hook member 2. Since the receiving inclined surface portion 14 is formed at a position corresponding to the hook member 2 on the instrument panel 5 side, even if an external force is applied to the hook member 2, it does not fall off to the back side of the center lower 3. In addition, it is easy to mount and does not use a separate fixing member such as a screw tapping, contributing to cost reduction.

  The hook attachment structure of the present invention can be suitably applied not only to the center lower side surface of the instrument panel, but can also be suitably applied and used in locations where the front member and the back member are wrapped in the vehicle. .
