Description

本発明は、樹脂基材層、発泡樹脂層、樹脂表皮層がこの順序で積層された樹脂成形品及びその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a resin molded product in which a resin base material layer, a foamed resin layer, and a resin skin layer are laminated in this order, and a method for producing the same.

図10に、自動車のインストゥルメンタルパネル1をエアバッグポケット近傍で長手方向に対して略直交する方向に切断した側面断面を簡略的に示す。インストゥルメンタルパネル1は、樹脂基材層2、発泡樹脂層3、樹脂表皮層4がこの順序で積層されるとともに、隣接する層同士が接合されることで構成された樹脂成形品である(例えば、特開平11−151728号公報参照)。   FIG. 10 simply shows a side cross section of the instrument panel 1 of an automobile cut in a direction substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal direction in the vicinity of the airbag pocket. The instrumental panel 1 is a resin molded product configured by laminating a resin base layer 2, a foamed resin layer 3, and a resin skin layer 4 in this order, and joining adjacent layers together ( For example, see JP-A-11-151728.

ここで、樹脂基材層2は、樹脂からなるパネル本体5の所定箇所に、樹脂からなるポケットドア6が嵌合されて構成される。この樹脂基材層2は、例えば、真空成形装置の下型に保持され、その後、接着剤が塗布される。さらに、該樹脂基材層2に対し、略均一に分散した気泡(セル)3aを含む軽量な発泡樹脂層3と、樹脂表皮層4とが予め接合された接合体が積層され、次に、真空成形が行われる。これにより、所定の形状に成形されたインストゥルメンタルパネル1が得られる。   Here, the resin base material layer 2 is configured by fitting a pocket door 6 made of resin into a predetermined portion of the panel body 5 made of resin. This resin base material layer 2 is hold | maintained at the lower mold | type of a vacuum forming apparatus, for example, and an adhesive agent is apply | coated after that. Furthermore, a bonded body in which a lightweight foamed resin layer 3 containing bubbles (cells) 3a dispersed in a substantially uniform manner and a resin skin layer 4 are bonded in advance to the resin base material layer 2 is laminated, Vacuum forming is performed. Thereby, the instrument panel 1 molded into a predetermined shape is obtained.

インストゥルメンタルパネル1は、樹脂表皮層4をユーザー(自動車乗員)が視認し得る意匠面側となるように、樹脂基材層2側が自動車車体に取り付けられる。   The instrument panel 1 is attached to the vehicle body so that the resin skin layer 4 is on the side of the design surface that the user (automobile occupant) can visually recognize.

パネル本体5における発泡樹脂層3に臨む側の端面と、ポケットドア6における発泡樹脂層3に臨む側の端面とは、高低差(段差)がないことが本来は望ましい。しかしながら、複数個のパネル本体5やポケットドア6を射出成形等によって連続的に得る場合、公差の範囲内で寸法が相違するものが作製されることがある。仮に、パネル本体5が設計寸法よりも大きく、且つポケットドア6が設計寸法よりも小さいときには、図11に誇張して示すように、ポケットドア6の近傍で陥没部7が生じるとともに、パネル本体5の近傍で突出部8が生じることになる。これら陥没部7及び突出部8の高低差に基づき、段差9が形成される。   Originally, it is desirable that there is no height difference (step) between the end face of the panel body 5 facing the foamed resin layer 3 and the end face of the pocket door 6 facing the foamed resin layer 3. However, when a plurality of panel main bodies 5 and pocket doors 6 are continuously obtained by injection molding or the like, those having different dimensions within a tolerance range may be produced. If the panel body 5 is larger than the design dimension and the pocket door 6 is smaller than the design dimension, as shown in an exaggerated manner in FIG. 11, a depressed portion 7 is generated in the vicinity of the pocket door 6, and the panel body 5 Protrusions 8 are produced in the vicinity of. A step 9 is formed based on the height difference between the depressed portion 7 and the protruding portion 8.

その一方で、発泡樹脂層3では、陥没部7に積層された部位の厚みと、突出部8に積層された部位の厚みとが略同等である。このため、発泡樹脂層3には、樹脂基材層2の段差9に応じた段差10が生じる。   On the other hand, in the foamed resin layer 3, the thickness of the part laminated | stacked on the depression part 7 and the thickness of the part laminated | stacked on the protrusion part 8 are substantially equivalent. For this reason, the step 10 corresponding to the step 9 of the resin base material layer 2 is generated in the foamed resin layer 3.

発泡樹脂層3上の樹脂表皮層4において、この段差10の上方に積層された部位には、段差10に対応して、デフォーム11と指称される窪みが形成される。デフォーム11が比較的大きなものである場合、ユーザーがデフォーム11の存在を認識してしまう。すなわち、意匠面の美観が不良となる。   In the resin skin layer 4 on the foamed resin layer 3, a recess referred to as a deform 11 is formed in a portion laminated above the step 10 corresponding to the step 10. When the deform 11 is relatively large, the user recognizes the presence of the deform 11. That is, the aesthetics of the design surface is poor.

このように意匠面に美観不良が生じたインストゥルメンタルパネル1は、商品として用いることができない。このため、歩留まりを向上させることが容易ではないという不都合もある。   Thus, the instrument panel 1 in which the aesthetic defect is generated on the design surface cannot be used as a product. For this reason, there is a disadvantage that it is not easy to improve the yield.

本発明の一般的な目的は、樹脂基材層に段差が生じていたとしても発泡樹脂層に段差が生じることが回避された樹脂成形品を提供することにある。   A general object of the present invention is to provide a resin molded product in which a step is avoided in a foamed resin layer even if a step is generated in the resin base material layer.

本発明の主たる目的は、樹脂表皮層にデフォームが形成されることが回避された樹脂成形品を提供することにある。   A main object of the present invention is to provide a resin molded product in which deformation is not formed on a resin skin layer.

本発明の別の目的は、上記した樹脂成形品を得るための樹脂成形品の製造方法を提供することにある。   Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a resin molded product for obtaining the resin molded product described above.

本発明の一実施形態によれば、樹脂基材層、発泡樹脂層、樹脂表皮層がこの順序で積層された樹脂成形品において、
前記樹脂基材層の、前記発泡樹脂層を臨む側の端面に、陥没部と突出部が存在することで段差が形成され、
前記発泡樹脂層の、前記陥没部に積層された部位は厚みが大きな厚肉部であり、且つ前記突出部に積層された部位は前記厚肉部に比して厚みが小さな薄肉部である樹脂成形品が提供される。
According to one embodiment of the present invention, in the resin molded product in which the resin base material layer, the foamed resin layer, and the resin skin layer are laminated in this order,
On the end surface of the resin base layer facing the foamed resin layer, a step is formed by the presence of a depression and a protrusion,
The portion of the foamed resin layer that is laminated to the depressed portion is a thick portion having a large thickness, and the portion that is laminated to the protruding portion is a thin portion having a smaller thickness than the thick portion. A molded article is provided.

このような構成においては、樹脂基材層の段差が、発泡樹脂層の厚肉部及び薄肉部によって解消されている。このため、発泡樹脂層の上端面(樹脂表皮層に臨む側の端面)に、樹脂基材層の段差に応じた段差が生じることが回避される。その結果として、樹脂表皮層の外表面、換言すれば、ユーザーが視認する意匠面に、段差に対応する窪み(デフォーム)が形成されることを回避することができる。   In such a configuration, the step of the resin base material layer is eliminated by the thick part and the thin part of the foamed resin layer. For this reason, it is avoided that the level | step difference according to the level | step difference of the resin base material layer arises in the upper end surface (end surface facing the resin skin layer) of a foamed resin layer. As a result, it is possible to avoid formation of a depression (deformation) corresponding to the step on the outer surface of the resin skin layer, in other words, the design surface visually recognized by the user.

なお、デフォームが形成されたとしても、その深さは0.1mm以下である。このような極小のデフォームを、ユーザーが視認することは困難である。すなわち、この場合においても、ユーザーは、デフォームの存在を認識し得ない。   Even if the deform is formed, the depth is 0.1 mm or less. It is difficult for the user to visually recognize such a minimal deformation. That is, even in this case, the user cannot recognize the presence of the deform.

結局、上記の構成とすることにより、美観に優れた樹脂成形品を得ることができる。   Eventually, with the above-described configuration, a resin molded product excellent in aesthetics can be obtained.

突出部に積層された薄肉部は、例えば、一部が塑性変形しており、且つ陥没部に積層された厚肉部は、弾性変形可能であることが好ましい。この場合、薄肉部が弾性によって戻ることが困難であるので、薄肉部が元の厚みを保ち易い。従って、デフォームが形成されることを回避することが一層容易となる。   For example, it is preferable that the thin-walled portion laminated on the protruding portion is partly plastically deformed and the thick-walled portion laminated on the depressed portion is elastically deformable. In this case, it is difficult for the thin-walled portion to return due to elasticity, and thus the thin-walled portion can easily maintain the original thickness. Therefore, it becomes easier to avoid the formation of the deform.

本発明では、段差傾斜して形成するとともに、陥没部よりも鉛直方向上方に位置する突出部の、前記陥没部に臨む側の端部に、厚みが漸次的に低減する肉厚変化部を形成する。この場合、発泡樹脂層の、突出部と陥没部との境界に積層された部位が、肉厚変化部に追従して変化する。このため、該境界と発泡樹脂層との間に間隙が生じ難くなる。
In the present invention, as well as formed to be inclined a step, the protruding portion positioned vertically above the recess, the end on the side facing the recess, the thickness changing portions which thickness is gradually reduced you formed. In this case, the part laminated | stacked on the boundary of a protrusion part and a depression part of a foamed resin layer changes following a thickness change part. For this reason, it becomes difficult to produce a gap between the boundary and the foamed resin layer.

前記の間隙が生じているときには、成形後の型開きの後、突出部と陥没部との境界に積層された部位が弾性によって戻り易くなる。この分、樹脂表皮層の、該部位に積層された部位が成形前の位置に戻り易くなるので、デフォームが形成される原因となる。   When the gap is generated, after the mold opening after molding, the portion laminated at the boundary between the protruding portion and the depressed portion is easily returned by elasticity. For this reason, the portion of the resin skin layer laminated on the portion easily returns to the pre-molding position, thereby causing deformation.

これに対し、上記の場合、変形した発泡樹脂層によって間隙が埋められる。従って、突出部と陥没部との境界に積層された部位が十分に圧縮されるので、弾性によって戻り難い。その結果として、樹脂表皮層の外表面(意匠面)にデフォームが形成されることが回避される。   On the other hand, in the above case, the gap is filled with the deformed foamed resin layer. Accordingly, the portion laminated at the boundary between the protruding portion and the depressed portion is sufficiently compressed, so that it is difficult to return due to elasticity. As a result, it is avoided that a deform is formed on the outer surface (design surface) of the resin skin layer.

以上の構成において、樹脂基材層を、複数個の樹脂製部材から形成するようにしてもよい。   In the above configuration, the resin base layer may be formed from a plurality of resin members.

本発明の別の一実施形態によれば、樹脂基材層、発泡樹脂層、樹脂表皮層がこの順序で積層された樹脂成形品の製造方法において、
前記樹脂基材層の、陥没部と突出部が存在することで段差が形成された端面に、前記発泡樹脂層と、前記樹脂表皮層とを積層して積層体を得る工程と、
金型を用い、前記積層体に対して加圧力を付与することで成形を行う工程と、
を有し、
前記加圧力を、前記発泡樹脂層の、前記陥没部に積層された部位では、型開き後の厚みの戻り量が大きく、且つ前記突出部に積層された部位では、型開き後の厚みの戻り量が小さくなるように付与する樹脂成形品の製造方法が提供される。
According to another embodiment of the present invention, in the method for producing a resin molded product in which the resin base material layer, the foamed resin layer, and the resin skin layer are laminated in this order,
Laminating the foamed resin layer and the resin skin layer on the end surface of the resin base material layer where a step is formed due to the presence of a depression and a protrusion, and obtaining a laminate;
A step of forming by applying pressure to the laminate using a mold; and
Have
In the portion of the foamed resin layer laminated on the depressed portion, the amount of return of the thickness after mold opening is large, and in the portion laminated on the protruding portion, the thickness return after mold opening is increased. There is provided a method for producing a resin molded product to be applied so that the amount is small.

典型的には、加圧力を付与することにより、該発泡樹脂層の厚みの戻り量が大きい部位を厚肉部、戻り量が小さい部位を薄肉部として得ることができる。   Typically, by applying pressure, it is possible to obtain a portion where the return amount of the foamed resin layer is large as a thick portion and a portion where the return amount is small as a thin portion.

従来技術に係る樹脂成形品の製造方法では、金型による加圧力の付与は、発泡樹脂層の上端面(樹脂表皮層に臨む側の端面)が平坦となった時点、ないしはそれよりも若干圧縮された時点で終了される。このため、型開き後の発泡樹脂層の戻り量は、部位に関わらず略同等である。従って、突出部に積層された部位を凸、陥没部に積層された部位を凹とするデフォームが形成され易い。   In the method of manufacturing a resin molded product according to the prior art, pressure is applied by a mold when the upper end surface of the foamed resin layer (the end surface facing the resin skin layer) becomes flat or slightly compressed. It will be terminated when it is done. For this reason, the return amount of the foamed resin layer after mold opening is substantially the same regardless of the part. Therefore, it is easy to form a deformation in which the portion laminated on the protruding portion is convex and the portion laminated on the depressed portion is concave.

これに対し、本発明においては、金型による加圧力を、発泡樹脂層の、突出部に積層された部位と、陥没部に積層された部位とで型開き後の発泡樹脂層の戻り量が相違するように付与する。その結果、発泡樹脂層に厚肉部と薄肉部が形成されることにより、樹脂基材層の段差が解消される。これにより、樹脂表皮層の外表面にデフォームが形成されることを回避することができる。すなわち、美観に優れた樹脂成形品が得られる。   In contrast, in the present invention, the pressure applied by the mold is such that the return amount of the foamed resin layer after opening the mold between the portion of the foamed resin layer laminated on the protruding portion and the portion laminated on the depressed portion is Grant differently. As a result, the thick portion and the thin portion are formed in the foamed resin layer, thereby eliminating the level difference of the resin base material layer. Thereby, it can avoid that a deform is formed in the outer surface of a resin skin layer. That is, a resin molded product excellent in aesthetics can be obtained.

また、ユーザーが視認し得る程度のデフォームが形成されないので、歩留まりも向上する。   In addition, since the deformation that can be visually recognized by the user is not formed, the yield is also improved.

加圧力は、例えば、薄肉部が塑性変形を起こし、且つ厚肉部が弾性変形域内で弾性変形する程度とすればよい。これにより、上記したように型開きの後に薄肉部が加圧前の厚みに戻ることを回避することができる。従って、樹脂表皮層の外表面にデフォームが形成されることを回避することが一層容易となる。   The applied pressure may be set such that, for example, the thin wall portion undergoes plastic deformation and the thick wall portion elastically deforms within the elastic deformation region. Thereby, it can avoid that a thin part returns to the thickness before pressurization after mold opening as mentioned above. Therefore, it becomes easier to avoid the formation of a deform on the outer surface of the resin skin layer.

なお、加圧力を相違させるべく、金型に対して入子を設けるようにしてもよい。この場合、積層体に対して成形を行う際、入子で陥没部を押圧し、該陥没部に、他の部位に比して大きな加圧力を付与するようにすればよい。   In addition, you may make it provide a nesting with respect to a metal mold | die so that a pressurizing force may differ. In this case, when the laminated body is molded, the depressed portion may be pressed by nesting, and a greater pressing force may be applied to the depressed portion than other portions.

また、段差が傾斜して形成されるときには、上記した理由から、突出部が陥没部よりも鉛直方向上方に位置するとき、該突出部の、鉛直方向下方に位置する陥没部に臨む側の端部に、厚みが漸次的に低減する肉厚変化部を形成すればよい。この場合、発泡樹脂層が肉厚変化部に追従して変形するので、発泡樹脂層の、突出部と陥没部の境界に積層された部位の圧縮量を大きくすることができる。換言すれば、戻り量が小さな薄肉部を形成することが容易となる。従って、この場合にも、デフォームが形成されることを回避することができる。   Further, when the step is formed to be inclined, for the reason described above, when the protruding portion is positioned vertically higher than the depressed portion, the end of the protruding portion facing the depressed portion positioned vertically below the depressed portion A thickness change portion where the thickness gradually decreases may be formed in the portion. In this case, since the foamed resin layer deforms following the thickness change portion, the amount of compression of the portion of the foamed resin layer laminated at the boundary between the protruding portion and the depressed portion can be increased. In other words, it is easy to form a thin portion with a small return amount. Therefore, in this case as well, it is possible to avoid the deformation.

樹脂基材層は、上記したように複数個の樹脂製部材を組み合わせて得るようにしてもよい。   The resin base layer may be obtained by combining a plurality of resin members as described above.

また、成形方法の好適な具体例としては、真空成形が挙げられる。   Moreover, vacuum forming is mentioned as a suitable specific example of a shaping | molding method.

以下、本発明に係る樹脂成形品及びその製造方法につき好適な実施の形態を挙げ、添付の図面を参照して詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the resin molded product and the manufacturing method thereof according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

図1は、本実施の形態に係る樹脂成形品としてのインストゥルメンタルパネル20の一部を簡略的に示した側面断面図である。インストゥルメンタルパネル20は、樹脂基材層22、発泡樹脂層24、樹脂表皮層26がこの順序で積層され且つ接合されてなる。なお、図1では、エアバッグポケット近傍を長手方向に対して略直交する方向に切断した箇所を示している。   FIG. 1 is a side sectional view schematically showing a part of an instrument panel 20 as a resin molded product according to the present embodiment. The instrument panel 20 is formed by laminating and joining a resin base layer 22, a foamed resin layer 24, and a resin skin layer 26 in this order. In addition, in FIG. 1, the location which cut | disconnected the airbag pocket vicinity in the direction substantially orthogonal to a longitudinal direction is shown.

樹脂基材層22は、樹脂製部材であるパネル本体28の所定箇所に、別の樹脂製部材からなるポケットドア30が嵌合されて構成される。パネル本体28及びポケットドア30は、例えば、ポリプロピレン(PP)樹脂や、アクリロニトリル−ブタジエン−スチレン共重合体(ABS)樹脂等からなる。   The resin base material layer 22 is configured by fitting a pocket door 30 made of another resin member into a predetermined portion of the panel body 28 which is a resin member. The panel main body 28 and the pocket door 30 are made of, for example, polypropylene (PP) resin, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) resin, or the like.

パネル本体28及びポケットドア30は、射出成形等によって得られる。本実施の形態では、パネル本体28が設計寸法よりも若干大きく、且つポケットドア30が設計寸法よりも若干小さいものとして作製されている。なお、パネル本体28及びポケットドア30において、設計寸法と実寸法との差は公差の範囲内である。   The panel body 28 and the pocket door 30 are obtained by injection molding or the like. In the present embodiment, the panel main body 28 is made slightly larger than the design dimension, and the pocket door 30 is made slightly smaller than the design dimension. In the panel body 28 and the pocket door 30, the difference between the design dimension and the actual dimension is within the tolerance range.

このため、樹脂基材層22には、ポケットドア30の近傍で陥没部32が生じ、且つパネル本体28の近傍で突出部34が生じている。そして、陥没部32と突出部34によって段差36が形成される。段差36は、概ね0.5mm以下、典型的には0.4mm程度である。   For this reason, the resin base material layer 22 has a depressed portion 32 in the vicinity of the pocket door 30 and a protruding portion 34 in the vicinity of the panel body 28. A step 36 is formed by the depressed portion 32 and the protruding portion 34. The step 36 is approximately 0.5 mm or less, typically about 0.4 mm.

発泡樹脂層24は、ポリプロピレン(PP)樹脂やポリエチレン(PE)樹脂等の樹脂発泡体である。すなわち、発泡樹脂層24には、直径が略同程度の気泡(セル)24aが略均一に分散している。従って、発泡樹脂層24は軽量であり且つ柔軟である。   The foamed resin layer 24 is a resin foam such as polypropylene (PP) resin or polyethylene (PE) resin. That is, in the foamed resin layer 24, bubbles (cells) 24a having substantially the same diameter are dispersed substantially uniformly. Therefore, the foamed resin layer 24 is lightweight and flexible.

発泡樹脂層24の厚みは、樹脂基材層22の段差36に応じて相違する。すなわち、陥没部32に積層された部位は厚みが大きく、一方、突出部34に積層された部位は厚みが小さい。このため、発泡樹脂層24は、厚肉部38と薄肉部40を有する。   The thickness of the foamed resin layer 24 differs depending on the step 36 of the resin base material layer 22. That is, the part laminated | stacked on the depression part 32 has a large thickness, while the part laminated | stacked on the protrusion part 34 has a small thickness. For this reason, the foamed resin layer 24 has a thick portion 38 and a thin portion 40.

厚肉部38は、例えば、押圧力の付与及び除去に追従して弾性変形を起こすことが可能である。すなわち、厚肉部38は弾性体である。一方、薄肉部40のほとんどは、塑性変形(永久変形)域まで圧縮されており、このために弾性を略消失している。厚肉部38と薄肉部40の形成に関しては、後に詳述する。   The thick portion 38 can be elastically deformed following the application and removal of the pressing force, for example. That is, the thick part 38 is an elastic body. On the other hand, most of the thin-walled portion 40 is compressed to the plastic deformation (permanent deformation) region, and for this reason, the elasticity is substantially lost. The formation of the thick part 38 and the thin part 40 will be described in detail later.

このように発泡樹脂層24に厚みが相違する部位が存在するため、該発泡樹脂層24に樹脂基材層22の段差36が転写されることや、このことに起因して該発泡樹脂層24に段差36が生じることが回避される。その結果、該発泡樹脂層24の上端面(樹脂表皮層26に臨む側の端面)が略平坦となる。   As described above, since there is a portion having a different thickness in the foamed resin layer 24, the step 36 of the resin base material layer 22 is transferred to the foamed resin layer 24, and the foamed resin layer 24 is caused by this. It is possible to avoid the occurrence of the step 36 on the surface. As a result, the upper end surface of the foamed resin layer 24 (the end surface facing the resin skin layer 26) becomes substantially flat.

以上のように、本実施の形態においては、樹脂基材層22の段差36が発泡樹脂層24の厚みの相違によって解消される。従って、発泡樹脂層24の上端面に形成される樹脂表皮層26の外表面に、樹脂基材層22の段差36に基づく窪み(デフォーム)が形成されることが回避される。デフォームが形成された場合であっても、その深さは最大で0.1mm程度であり、この場合、ユーザーは、目視ではデフォームが存在することを認識し得ない。   As described above, in the present embodiment, the step 36 of the resin base material layer 22 is eliminated by the difference in thickness of the foamed resin layer 24. Therefore, it is possible to avoid a depression (deformation) based on the step 36 of the resin base material layer 22 on the outer surface of the resin skin layer 26 formed on the upper end surface of the foamed resin layer 24. Even when the deform is formed, the depth is about 0.1 mm at the maximum, and in this case, the user cannot visually recognize that the deform exists.

すなわち、この場合、樹脂表皮層26に、ユーザーが視認可能な程度の形状欠陥が認められない。結局、インストゥルメンタルパネル20は美観に優れる。このために歩留まりも良好である。   That is, in this case, the resin skin layer 26 does not have a shape defect that is visible to the user. After all, the instrument panel 20 is excellent in aesthetics. For this reason, the yield is also good.

次に、本実施の形態に係る樹脂成形品の製造方法につき、上記のインストゥルメンタルパネル20を真空成形にて得る場合を例として説明する。   Next, a case where the instrument panel 20 is obtained by vacuum molding will be described as an example with respect to the method for manufacturing a resin molded product according to the present embodiment.

はじめに、パネル本体28やポケットドア30を射出成形によって作製した後、パネル本体28の所定の箇所にポケットドア30を嵌合する。これにより、樹脂基材層22が形成される。この時点で、樹脂基材層22には、パネル本体28及びポケットドア30の寸法差によって段差36が発生する。すなわち、ポケットドア30の近傍で陥没部32が生じ、且つパネル本体28の近傍で突出部34が生じる。   First, after the panel body 28 and the pocket door 30 are produced by injection molding, the pocket door 30 is fitted into a predetermined portion of the panel body 28. Thereby, the resin base material layer 22 is formed. At this time, a step 36 is generated in the resin base material layer 22 due to a dimensional difference between the panel main body 28 and the pocket door 30. That is, the depressed portion 32 is generated in the vicinity of the pocket door 30, and the protruding portion 34 is generated in the vicinity of the panel body 28.

次に、樹脂基材層22を、図2に示すように真空成形装置の下型42(金型)に保持する。その後、さらに、発泡樹脂層24と樹脂表皮層26が予め接合され、且つ発泡樹脂層24に接着剤が塗布された接合体を、発泡樹脂層24が樹脂基材層22に臨むようにして載置する。前記接合体は柔軟であり可撓性に富むので、この時点では、接合体は、樹脂基材層22の段差36に応じて撓む。すなわち、突出部34に積層された部位は隆起し、陥没部32に積層された部位は陥没する。   Next, the resin base material layer 22 is held on the lower mold 42 (mold) of the vacuum forming apparatus as shown in FIG. Thereafter, the joined body in which the foamed resin layer 24 and the resin skin layer 26 are joined in advance and the adhesive is applied to the foamed resin layer 24 is placed so that the foamed resin layer 24 faces the resin base material layer 22. . Since the joined body is soft and rich in flexibility, the joined body bends according to the step 36 of the resin base material layer 22 at this time. That is, the part laminated | stacked on the protrusion part 34 protrudes, and the part laminated | stacked on the depression part 32 sinks.

次に、図示しない昇降機構の作用下に上型44(金型)を下降させる。これにより型閉じを行い、キャビティ46を形成する。   Next, the upper mold 44 (mold) is lowered under the action of a lifting mechanism (not shown). Thus, the mold is closed and the cavity 46 is formed.

樹脂基材層22、発泡樹脂層24及び樹脂表皮層26の積層体に対しては、上型44からの押圧力と下型42の反力によって、加圧力が付与される。この加圧力により、発泡樹脂層24及び樹脂表皮層26が主に圧縮されて積層体が下型42の形状に沿って粗く屈曲変形する。同時に、樹脂基材層22の表面に塗布された接着剤を介して樹脂基材層22と発泡樹脂層24とが互いに接着される。   Pressure is applied to the laminate of the resin base layer 22, the foamed resin layer 24 and the resin skin layer 26 by the pressing force from the upper mold 44 and the reaction force of the lower mold 42. By this applied pressure, the foamed resin layer 24 and the resin skin layer 26 are mainly compressed, and the laminate is roughly bent and deformed along the shape of the lower mold 42. At the same time, the resin base material layer 22 and the foamed resin layer 24 are bonded to each other through an adhesive applied to the surface of the resin base material layer 22.

この過程で、接合体の隆起部位及び陥没部位が消失し、図3に示すように、発泡樹脂層24及び樹脂表皮層26の各上端面が見掛け上平坦となる。樹脂基材層22は比較的硬質であるので、突出部34及び陥没部32(段差36)は消失しない。   In this process, the raised portion and the depressed portion of the joined body disappear, and the upper end surfaces of the foamed resin layer 24 and the resin skin layer 26 are apparently flat as shown in FIG. Since the resin base material layer 22 is relatively hard, the protrusion 34 and the depression 32 (step 36) do not disappear.

従来技術に係る真空成形では、上型44の下降は、該上型44による加圧力が、発泡樹脂層24の弾性変形域内となる位置で終了される。これに対し、本実施の形態においては、上型44がそれ以上に下降する。すなわち、発泡樹脂層24の上端面が見掛け上平坦となった後もさらに圧縮が進行する。このため、発泡樹脂層24の、突出部34に積層された部位、及び陥没部32に積層された部位の双方が圧縮される。   In vacuum forming according to the prior art, the lowering of the upper mold 44 is terminated at a position where the pressure applied by the upper mold 44 is within the elastic deformation region of the foamed resin layer 24. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the upper mold 44 is lowered further. That is, the compression further proceeds after the upper end surface of the foamed resin layer 24 is apparently flat. For this reason, both the site | part laminated | stacked on the protrusion part 34 and the site | part laminated | stacked on the depression part 32 of the foamed resin layer 24 are compressed.

このような加圧力の付与がなされる結果、発泡樹脂層24の部位によって圧縮量が相違することになる。具体的には、陥没部32に積層された部位では圧縮量が小さくなり、厚肉部38が形成される。一方、突出部34に積層された部位は、圧縮量が大きいので薄肉部40となる。   As a result of such application of pressure, the amount of compression varies depending on the portion of the foamed resin layer 24. Specifically, the amount of compression is reduced at the portion laminated on the depressed portion 32, and the thick portion 38 is formed. On the other hand, the part laminated | stacked on the protrusion part 34 becomes the thin part 40 because the compression amount is large.

下型42及び上型44による加圧力は、例えば、厚肉部38が弾性変形域内に留まり、且つ薄肉部40が塑性変形域となる程度に制御される。この場合、厚肉部38は、加圧力が取り除かれた後、弾性変形によって加圧前の厚みと略同等、ないしは若干下回る程度に復元する。このため、厚肉部38は、成形後に加圧力が付与及び除去されることに追従してさらなる弾性変形を起こすことが可能である。   The pressure applied by the lower mold 42 and the upper mold 44 is controlled so that, for example, the thick portion 38 remains in the elastic deformation region and the thin portion 40 becomes a plastic deformation region. In this case, after the applied pressure is removed, the thick portion 38 is restored to an extent that is substantially equal to or slightly less than the thickness before pressurization by elastic deformation. For this reason, the thick portion 38 can be further elastically deformed following the application and removal of the applied pressure after molding.

一方、薄肉部40は、この場合、大部分が塑性変形(永久変形)を起こしており、弾性変形域内で変形している部分は少量である。このため、成形後に型開きが行われた際、又は、加圧力が付与及び除去されたときの薄肉部40の弾性変形量も少量である。   On the other hand, in this case, most of the thin portion 40 has undergone plastic deformation (permanent deformation), and a small portion is deformed within the elastic deformation region. For this reason, the amount of elastic deformation of the thin portion 40 when the mold opening is performed after molding or when the applied pressure is applied and removed is also small.

このようにして加圧力を付与しながら、キャビティ46内の排気を行う。ここで、下型42及び上型44の各々には、複数個の吸引孔48、50が形成されている。キャビティ46内は、図示しない吸気機構の作用下に、吸引孔48、50を介して真空引きされる。これに伴ってキャビティ46内が負圧となるので、積層体が下型42及び上型44の形状に倣ってさらに微細に屈曲変形する。その結果、積層体がインストゥルメンタルパネル20としての形状となる。また、下型42ないし上型44の表面にシボ形状が形成されている場合、該シボ形状が樹脂基材層22に明確に転写される。   In this way, the cavity 46 is evacuated while applying pressure. Here, a plurality of suction holes 48 and 50 are formed in each of the lower mold 42 and the upper mold 44. The cavity 46 is evacuated through suction holes 48 and 50 under the action of an intake mechanism (not shown). Along with this, the inside of the cavity 46 becomes negative pressure, so that the laminate is bent and deformed more finely following the shapes of the lower mold 42 and the upper mold 44. As a result, the laminate has a shape as the instrument panel 20. Further, when a textured shape is formed on the surface of the lower mold 42 or the upper mold 44, the textured shape is clearly transferred to the resin base material layer 22.

その後、必要であれば、図示しない圧縮ガス供給機構から上型44の吸引孔50を介して圧縮ガスをキャビティ46に供給する。又は、上型44の吸引孔50を大気開放するようにしてもよい。この状態で、前記吸気機構の作用下に下型42の吸引孔48を介してキャビティ46内を真空引きすると、積層体が下型42に向かって押圧される。その結果、積層体が下型42の形状に倣って一層精緻に変形する。   Thereafter, if necessary, compressed gas is supplied to the cavity 46 through the suction hole 50 of the upper mold 44 from a compressed gas supply mechanism (not shown). Alternatively, the suction hole 50 of the upper mold 44 may be opened to the atmosphere. In this state, when the inside of the cavity 46 is evacuated through the suction hole 48 of the lower mold 42 under the action of the intake mechanism, the laminate is pressed toward the lower mold 42. As a result, the laminate is deformed more precisely following the shape of the lower mold 42.

所定時間が経過した後、キャビティ46内の真空引き(及びキャビティ46への圧縮ガスの供給)を終了し、図4に示すように上型44を上昇させて型開きを行う。これにより、樹脂成形品としてのインストゥルメンタルパネル20が露呈する。   After a predetermined time has elapsed, the evacuation in the cavity 46 (and the supply of compressed gas to the cavity 46) is terminated, and the upper mold 44 is raised to open the mold as shown in FIG. Thereby, the instrument panel 20 as a resin molded product is exposed.

この型開き時に、下型42及び上型44からの加圧によって圧縮されていた発泡樹脂層24及び樹脂表皮層26が元の厚みに復帰しようとする。この際、厚肉部38は比較的復帰し易く、一方、薄肉部40は比較的復帰し難い。上記したように厚肉部38では圧縮量が小さく、且つ薄肉部40では圧縮量が大きいからである。   When the mold is opened, the foamed resin layer 24 and the resin skin layer 26 compressed by the pressure from the lower mold 42 and the upper mold 44 try to return to the original thickness. At this time, the thick portion 38 is relatively easy to return, while the thin portion 40 is relatively difficult to return. This is because the compression amount is small in the thick portion 38 and the compression amount is large in the thin portion 40 as described above.

この傾向は、薄肉部40が塑性変形を起こし、且つ厚肉部38が弾性変形域内であるときに特に顕著となる。塑性変形を起こした薄肉部40は弾性変形によって元の厚みに戻ることが困難であり、弾性変形域内である厚肉部38は弾性変形によって元の厚み程度に戻ることが容易であるためである。   This tendency is particularly noticeable when the thin portion 40 undergoes plastic deformation and the thick portion 38 is within the elastic deformation region. This is because it is difficult for the thin-walled portion 40 that has undergone plastic deformation to return to its original thickness due to elastic deformation, and the thick-walled portion 38 that is within the elastic deformation region can easily return to its original thickness due to elastic deformation. .

このため、発泡樹脂層24は、突出部34及び陥没部32(段差36)が存在する樹脂基材層22上に積層されているにも関わらず、その上端面が略平坦となる。従って、発泡樹脂層24の上端面に積層された樹脂表皮層26の上端面(外表面)、すなわち、ユーザーに視認される意匠面も略平坦となり、結局、デフォームが形成されることが回避される。デフォームが形成されていたとしても、その深さは0.1mm以下であり、ユーザーがデフォームの存在を認識することは困難である。   For this reason, although the foamed resin layer 24 is laminated on the resin base material layer 22 where the projecting portion 34 and the depressed portion 32 (step 36) are present, the upper end surface thereof becomes substantially flat. Therefore, the upper end surface (outer surface) of the resin skin layer 26 laminated on the upper end surface of the foamed resin layer 24, that is, the design surface visually recognized by the user is also substantially flat, so that it is avoided that a deform is formed after all. Is done. Even if the deform is formed, the depth is 0.1 mm or less, and it is difficult for the user to recognize the presence of the deform.

以上のように、真空成形時、発泡樹脂層24において、陥没部32に積層された部位の型開き後の厚みの戻り量が大きく、且つ突出部34に積層された部位の型開き後の厚みの戻り量が小さくなるように加圧力を付与することで、発泡樹脂層24に厚肉部38及び薄肉部40を形成することが可能となる。その結果、樹脂表皮層26の外表面に形成されるデフォームの深さを、ユーザーが視認困難な0.1mm以下に制御することができる。   As described above, at the time of vacuum forming, the foamed resin layer 24 has a large amount of return of the thickness after opening the portion laminated to the depression 32 and the thickness after opening the portion laminated to the protruding portion 34. By applying a pressing force so that the return amount of the resin layer is reduced, the thick portion 38 and the thin portion 40 can be formed in the foamed resin layer 24. As a result, the depth of the deformation formed on the outer surface of the resin skin layer 26 can be controlled to 0.1 mm or less, which is difficult for the user to visually recognize.

図2〜図4においては、下型42及び上型44やインストゥルメンタルパネル20を簡略化して示しているが、実際の下型42及び上型44には、図5に示すように、鉛直方向ないし重力方向に対して平行に、ないしは傾斜した箇所が存在することもある。このような箇所で突出部34及び陥没部32に基づいて傾斜した段差36が形成されると、段差36の程度によっては、真空成形を行った後、鉛直上方に位置する突出部34と陥没部32との境界と、その直上の発泡樹脂層24との間に間隙Cが生じることがある。この状態で型開きを行うと、突出部34と陥没部32との境界に積層された部位の戻り量が十分ではないためにデフォームが形成されることが考えられる。   2 to 4, the lower mold 42 and the upper mold 44 and the instrument panel 20 are shown in a simplified manner. However, in the actual lower mold 42 and the upper mold 44, as shown in FIG. There may be a portion that is parallel or inclined with respect to the direction or the direction of gravity. If a step 36 that is inclined based on the protrusion 34 and the recessed portion 32 is formed in such a place, depending on the degree of the step 36, the protrusion 34 and the recessed portion positioned vertically upward after vacuum forming is performed. A gap C may be formed between the boundary with 32 and the foamed resin layer 24 immediately above the boundary. If the mold is opened in this state, it is conceivable that the deformed portion is formed because the return amount of the portion laminated at the boundary between the protruding portion 34 and the depressed portion 32 is not sufficient.

このような場合、図5に示すように、鉛直方向上方に位置する突出部34の、鉛直方向下方に位置する陥没部32に臨む側の端部に、厚みが漸次的に低減する肉厚変化部52を予め形成する。その後、該樹脂基材層22に前記接合体を載置して型閉じを行い、真空成形を行う。   In such a case, as shown in FIG. 5, a change in thickness in which the thickness gradually decreases at the end of the projecting portion 34 positioned above the vertical direction on the side facing the depressed portion 32 positioned below the vertical direction. The part 52 is formed in advance. Thereafter, the joined body is placed on the resin base material layer 22 and the mold is closed to perform vacuum forming.

上記の間隙Cが生じる理由は、陥没部32よりも鉛直上方に位置する突出部34の端部が鋭敏なときには、発泡樹脂層24が鋭敏な端部に堰止されるために段差36に追従して変形することが容易ではないからであると推察される。これに対し、この実施の形態では、厚みが漸次的に低減する肉厚変化部52(凹部)を端部に設けているので、図5に示すように、該端部の厚みが緩やかに変化する。このため、発泡樹脂層24が突出部34の端部に堰止されることが回避される。従って、発泡樹脂層24は、図5及び図6に示すように、肉厚変化部52の陥没に追従して変形することが可能である。   The reason why the gap C is generated is that the foamed resin layer 24 is blocked by the sensitive end when the end of the protrusion 34 positioned vertically above the depressed portion 32 is sensitive, and follows the step 36. Therefore, it is assumed that it is not easy to deform. In contrast, in this embodiment, since the thickness changing portion 52 (concave portion) in which the thickness gradually decreases is provided at the end portion, the thickness of the end portion changes gradually as shown in FIG. To do. For this reason, it is avoided that the foamed resin layer 24 is blocked by the end portion of the protruding portion 34. Therefore, the foamed resin layer 24 can be deformed following the depression of the thickness changing portion 52 as shown in FIGS.

その結果、突出部34と陥没部32との境界に積層された部位の戻り量が十分となる。すなわち、図7に示すように、デフォームが形成されることが回避されたインストゥルメンタルパネル20が得られる。   As a result, the return amount of the portion stacked at the boundary between the protruding portion 34 and the depressed portion 32 is sufficient. That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the instrument panel 20 in which the deformation is avoided is obtained.

図8に示すように、ポケットドア30がパネル本体28よりも上方となるときにも同様に、肉厚変化部52を設けることによってデフォームが形成されることを回避することができる。   As shown in FIG. 8, similarly, when the pocket door 30 is positioned above the panel body 28, it is possible to avoid the deformation by providing the thickness changing portion 52.

なお、図9に示すように、下型42に入子54(可動金型)を設けるようにしてもよい。該入子54は、シリンダ56の作用下に進退動作する。   In addition, as shown in FIG. 9, you may make it provide the insert 54 (movable metal mold | die) in the lower mold | type 42. FIG. The insert 54 moves back and forth under the action of the cylinder 56.

この場合には、上型44の加圧力を大きくすることに代替し、入子54によって陥没部32を押圧する。このためには、例えば、ポケットドア30を入子54で押圧すればよい。これにより、陥没部32に、他の部位に比して大きな加圧力が付与される。その結果、型開き後に厚肉部38が一層容易に戻るようになる。このことも、デフォームの形成回避に寄与する。   In this case, instead of increasing the pressing force of the upper mold 44, the depressed portion 32 is pressed by the insert 54. For this purpose, for example, the pocket door 30 may be pressed by the insert 54. Thereby, a large pressing force is applied to the depressed portion 32 as compared with other portions. As a result, the thick portion 38 can be more easily returned after the mold is opened. This also contributes to avoiding deformation.

本発明は、上記した実施の形態に特に限定されるものではなく、本発明の主旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々の変更が可能である。   The present invention is not particularly limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.

例えば、樹脂成形品がインストゥルメンタルパネル20に限定されるものではないことはいうまでもない。樹脂基材層22も、単一個の部材からなるものであってもよい。   For example, it goes without saying that the resin molded product is not limited to the instrument panel 20. The resin base layer 22 may also be composed of a single member.

また、本発明は、上記とは逆にポケットドア30の厚みがパネル本体28に比して大きな場合であっても、適用することが可能である。   In contrast to the above, the present invention can be applied even when the pocket door 30 is thicker than the panel body 28.

さらに、樹脂成形品を得るための成形は真空成形に限定されるものではなく、例えば、プレス成形を採用するようにしてもよい。   Furthermore, molding for obtaining a resin molded product is not limited to vacuum molding, and for example, press molding may be employed.
