Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle end structure, and more particularly to a structure for attaching a decorative member provided around a lamp body such as a fog lamp to an end of a vehicle.

  Conventionally, a lamp such as a fog lamp is attached to the front end or the rear end of a vehicle in a state where the direction of the optical axis is adjusted so that a predetermined range can be illuminated. At this time, it is desirable to fix the lamp body to a portion (for example, a bumper face or the like) having an appropriate support rigidity so that the optical axis does not shift due to traveling load, traveling vibration, or the like.

  For example, Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a structure in which a lamp is fixed with a tapping screw from the back side of the bumper face in order to prevent the tapping screw from being exposed on the surface of the bumper face.

  In Patent Document 3, the lamp is attached to the bumper face from the surface side with a tapping screw or the like, and a decorative member (garnish) is attached to the bumper face from the surface side only by the locking claw so as to cover the tapping screw or the like. A different structure is disclosed.

  Further, Patent Documents 4 and 5 have a structure in which a lamp body is attached to the decorative member itself and the decorative member to which the lamp body is attached is attached to the bumper face from the surface side only with a locking claw for improving maintainability. It is disclosed.

  Patent Documents 6 and 7 disclose a structure in which a lamp body is fastened and fixed to a bumper face with a bolt or the like only from the lower side of the vehicle in order to improve maintainability.

  According to such a configuration, the screwing member has the washer joined to the bolt member, and the lamp body bracket includes the receiving portion that receives the washer below the screwing member in the vehicle. This eliminates the possibility of dropping and losing and improves the maintainability.

  Further, the lamp body includes a claw portion that is inserted into a hole portion provided in the lamp body bracket and engages with a lower edge of the hole portion, and the screw is in a state where the washer is in contact with the receiving portion. It is preferable that the claw portion is separated upward from the lower edge of the hole portion by further rotating the joint member.

  According to such a configuration, by further rotating the screwing member in a state where the washer is in contact with the receiving portion, the claw portion is separated upward from the lower edge of the hole portion and the claw portion and the hole portion are separated from each other. Since the locked state is released, even when it is difficult to remove the lamp from the lamp bracket, the lamp can be easily and reliably removed without damaging the lamp or the lamp bracket.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the lamp body includes another claw portion that is inserted into another hole portion provided in the lamp body bracket and engages with an upper edge of the other hole portion.

  According to such a configuration, even if the locking state of the one claw portion and the hole portion is released by rotating the screwing member, the locking state of the other (other) claw portion is not released. It is possible to prevent a situation where the lamp body suddenly falls off due to the rotation of the screwing member.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the said decorative member is set as the structure provided with the tool insertion hole in the position corresponding to the said attachment piece.

  According to such a configuration, since the tool insertion hole is provided at a position corresponding to the attachment piece of the decorative member, after removing the screwing member from below the vehicle, the tool is inserted from the tool insertion hole to operate the attachment piece. By doing so, the decorative member can be reliably and easily removed from the bumper member, and the lamp body can be maintained.
