Description

  The present invention relates to a knob mounting structure for mounting a knob as an operation member to an operation lever.

  For example, a heater control device for a vehicle rotates an operation lever by moving a knob attached to a distal end portion of the operation lever to the left and right, and controls the air conditioner via a cable connected to the operation lever. There is provided one that switches the air circulation mode in the vehicle interior to an “inside air circulation mode” for circulating air in the vehicle interior or an “outside air circulation mode” for taking outside air into the vehicle interior. As a knob mounting structure in such a heater control device, Patent Document 1 proposes a structure shown in FIGS. 13 and 14.

  That is, FIG. 13 is an exploded perspective view showing the knob mounting structure proposed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-151867, and FIG. 14 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. An engaging claw (protrusion) 101a is projected from the tip portion by cutting and raising, and the knob 102 is formed with a rectangular cylindrical mounting portion 102A. One end of the mounting portion 102A is opened as an insertion hole 102a, and an elastic piece (claw) 102b that can be elastically deformed is formed on a part of the upper wall of the mounting portion 102A. A joint hole 102c is formed.

  Thus, as shown in FIG. 14, when the distal end portion of the operation lever 101 is inserted from the insertion hole 102a of the knob 102 into the mounting portion 102A in the direction of the illustrated arrow, the engagement claw 102b protruding from the operation lever 101 The elastic piece 102b of the knob 102 is bent outward (upper side in FIG. 14) to allow the engagement claw 101a to pass therethrough. Then, when the engaging claw 101a matches the engaging hole 102c of the elastic piece 102b, the elastic piece 102b returns to its original state by the elastic restoring force, and the engaging claw 101a enters the engaging hole 102c as shown in FIG. In order to engage, the knob 102 can be easily attached to the operation lever 101 with one touch.

  However, in the attachment structure of the knob 102 proposed in Patent Document 1 shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, when the knob 102 attached to the distal end portion of the operation lever 101 is twisted in the rotation direction, the attachment portion of the knob 102 is provided. Since 102A elastically deforms so as to open its mouth, there is a problem that the operational feeling of the knob 102 is deteriorated.

  In order to solve the above problem, it is conceivable to increase the rigidity of the mounting portion 102A by increasing the thickness of the rectangular cylindrical mounting portion 102A of the knob 102. However, if the thickness of the mounting portion 102A is increased in this way, As a result, the appearance quality of the knob 102 deteriorates due to the occurrence of sink marks and voids during molding. As another countermeasure, a method of changing the material of the knob 102 to a material having high rigidity is also conceivable. However, if such a method is adopted, there is a problem in that the material cost increases and the manufacturing cost increases. .

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a knob mounting structure capable of enhancing the operational feeling of the knob without causing deterioration in appearance quality or increase in manufacturing cost.

FIG. 8 is a side sectional view, and FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along line AA in FIG.

  The heater control device 10 shown in FIG. 1 rotates the operation lever 1 by moving a knob 2 attached to the distal end of the operation lever 1 to the left and right, and connects a cable (not shown) connected to the operation lever 1. The air-conditioning device (not shown) is controlled via the air-conditioner to switch the air circulation mode in the vehicle interior to the “inside air circulation mode” for circulating air in the vehicle interior or the “outside air circulation mode” for taking outside air into the vehicle interior. . Here, in the lower part of the rectangular plate-like panel 11 disposed in front of the driver's seat, a rectangular opening 11a that is elongated in the left-right direction is formed, and this opening 11a is formed on the front end side of the operation lever 1. The closed portion 1A formed integrally is closed.

  The operation lever 1 is integrally formed of resin or metal into a shape shown in FIG. 2, and an arm portion 1C that extends linearly from the boss portion 1B integrally formed at the center thereof toward the front (front side). The closing portion 1A is integrally formed at the front end portion. Here, the boss portion 1B of the operation lever 1 is provided with a circular shaft support hole 1a extending vertically, and a shaft portion standing on a base (not shown) is inserted into the shaft support hole 1a. Accordingly, the operation lever 1 is pivotally supported so as to be horizontally rotatable around the shaft portion of the base. Accordingly, the closing portion 1A formed at the front end portion of the operation lever 1 is formed in an arc shape centering on the shaft portion (the rotation center of the operation lever 1), and a rectangular shape is formed at the center in the width direction of the front surface thereof. A block-shaped knob fixing portion 3 is integrally protruded toward the front (front side).

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, an arm-like action part 1D is integrally formed from the boss part 1B of the operation lever 1 toward the rear (back side) so as to be in a straight line with the arm part 1C. A circular connection hole 1b to which one end of a cable (not shown) is connected is formed in the action part 1D. Although not shown, the other end of the cable is connected to the air conditioner, and therefore the operation lever 1 is connected to the air conditioner via the cable.

  Thus, the knob 2 can be easily attached to the knob fixing portion 3 integrally projecting from the closing portion 1A of the operation lever 1 by the one-touch mounting structure according to the present invention. The knob 2 attached to 3 is exposed on the surface of the panel 11 as shown in FIG. Therefore, when the operator grips the knob 2 with his / her finger and moves it left and right along the opening 11a of the panel 11, the operation lever 1 moves left and right around a shaft portion standing on a base (not shown). Rotate. Here, a symbol (picture) 12 for displaying “inside air circulation” and a symbol (picture 13) for displaying “outside air circulation” are displayed on both left and right end portions (left and right movement limit of the knob 2) of the upper surface of the panel 11. Are arranged respectively.

  Therefore, in the state where the knob 2 is moved to the left end of the opening 11a of the panel 11 as shown in FIG. 1, the air circulation mode in the passenger compartment is set to the “inside air circulation mode”. When the operator grips the knob 2 with his finger and moves it to the right end along the opening 11a of the panel 11 from this state, the operation lever 1 moves to the right about the shaft portion of the base (not shown). In order to rotate, the rotation of the operation lever 1 is transmitted to an air conditioner (not shown) via a cable (not shown). Then, the air conditioner is controlled, and the air circulation mode in the passenger compartment is switched from the “inside air circulation mode” to the “outside air circulation mode”. When the knob 2 moved to the right end of the opening 11a of the panel 11 is moved to the left along the opening 11a of the panel 11 to the left end shown in FIG. 1, the operation lever 1 rotates in the reverse direction. The air conditioner is controlled, and the air circulation mode in the passenger compartment is switched from the “outside air circulation mode” to the “inside air circulation mode”.

  Next, a structure for attaching the knob 2 to the operation lever 1 according to the present invention will be described.

  As shown in detail in FIG. 3, the knob fixing portion 3 that is integrally provided on the operation lever 1 constitutes a tapered surface 3 a in which the lower surface of the tip portion is inclined obliquely upward toward the front, Therefore, the thickness of the front end portion of the knob fixing portion 3 gradually decreases toward the tip.

  A first guide groove 3b having a rectangular cross section is formed on the upper surface of the knob fixing portion 3 from the front end to the rear (along the insertion direction of the operation lever 1 to the knob 2). On the left and right side surfaces of the fixed portion 3, the same second guide grooves 3c (only one is shown in FIGS. 2 and 3) having a rectangular cross section are formed in parallel to each other from the front end to the rear. Further, an engaging claw 3d is integrally projected at the center in the width direction of the bottom surface of the knob fixing portion 3 and in the middle part in the front-rear direction. The engaging claw 3d has a rectangular cross section on both the left and right sides. Third guide grooves 3e are formed in parallel to each other along the front-rear direction.

  On the other hand, the knob 2 is formed into a shape shown in FIGS. 1 to 8 by a resin which is an elastic member, and protrudes horizontally from the knob body 4 to the rear, with a hollow knob body 4 having an open rear surface. It has the attachment part 5 to do. Here, the mounting portion 5 includes a substantially rectangular cylindrical holding frame 5A, and an opening 5a into which the knob fixing portion 3 of the operation lever 1 is inserted opens at the rear end surface of the holding frame 5A. ing.

  The holding frame 5A is formed with a rectangular elastic piece 5A1 which forms a part of the bottom wall and can be elastically deformed outward (downward) at the center in the width direction. At the center in the width direction, a rectangular engagement hole 5b for engaging with the engagement claw 3d protruding from the lower surface of the knob fixing portion 3 of the operation lever 1 is formed. The portion of the holding frame 5A excluding the elastic piece 5A1 constitutes an extending portion 5A2 surrounding the elastic piece 5A1, and this extending portion 5A2 is provided on the same plane as the elastic piece 5A1. The lever 1 extends along a pair of left and right third guide grooves 3 e formed on the lower surface of the knob fixing portion 3. Here, at the center in the width direction of the rear end portion of the extending portion 5A2, as shown in FIGS. 3, 5, and 6, the interference with the engaging claw 3d of the operation lever 1 when the knob 2 is assembled. A notch-shaped insertion opening 5c for avoiding the above is formed.

A rectangular rib-shaped hooking portion 5d that engages in a circumferential direction with a pair of left and right third guide grooves 3e formed along the front-rear direction on the lower surface of the front-rear side is along the front-rear direction (the direction perpendicular to the plane of FIG. 6 and FIG. Projecting parallel to each other. Here, as shown in FIG. 5, the hooking portion 5d of the extending portion 5A2 and the engaging hole 5b of the elastic piece 5A1 are provided shifted in the front-rear direction (the insertion direction of the knob 2). The portion 5d and the engagement hole 5b do not overlap in the width direction. The rear ends of the pair of hook portions 5d (the end portions that start to engage with the third guide groove 3e on the operation lever 1 side) are tapered, and the rear ends of the hook portions 5d are thus formed. By adopting the tapered shape, the hooking portion 5d can be smoothly engaged with the third guide groove 3e.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, rectangular ribs are formed on the inner surface (the inner surfaces of the upper wall and the left and right side walls) of the knob 2 other than the extending portion 5A2 of the rectangular cylindrical holding frame 5A. A first guide convex portion 5e and a second guide convex portion 5f are formed in parallel with each other along the front-rear direction (the direction perpendicular to the plane of FIG. 6 and FIG. 8). The first guide convex portion 5e and the second guide convex portion 5f are respectively engaged with the first guide groove 3b and the second guide groove 3c formed in the knob fixing portion 3 of the operation lever 1. Each of these rear ends (end portions starting to engage with the first guide groove 3b and the second guide groove 3c on the operation lever 1 side) has a tapered shape, and thus the first guide convex portion 5e. By making each rear end of the second guide convex portion 5f into a tapered shape, the first guide convex portion 5e and the second guide convex portion 5f are engaged with the first guide groove 3b and the second guide groove 3c. Made smooth.
