Description

The present invention relates to a structure for mounting a built-in component of a fuel tank made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin, and in particular, a fuel tank having a built-in component inside with an outer wall formed by blow molding a thermoplastic synthetic resin member. The present invention relates to a built-in component mounting structure.

Conventionally, the structure of fuel tanks for automobiles and the like has been made of metal, but in recent years, thermoplasticity has been achieved by reducing the weight of the vehicle, eliminating rust, and easily forming into a desired shape. Those made of synthetic resin have come to be used.
In the production of an automotive fuel tank made of a thermoplastic synthetic resin, a blow molding method has been often used because of the ease of molding a hollow body. In the blow molding method, a parison of a molten thermoplastic synthetic resin member is formed into a cylindrical shape and extruded from above, and the parison is sandwiched between molds and air is blown into the parison to manufacture an automobile fuel tank.

On the other hand, also in the blow molding method, it is required to provide internal components such as valves and a baffle plate for suppressing fuel flow noise inside the fuel tank.
Therefore, the built-in parts are set on the resin frame, the resin frame is set in the mold, blow molded, and the resin frame is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the outer wall of the fuel tank, and the built-in parts are placed inside the fuel tank. Some are attached (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

However, in this case, since the built-in parts are set on the resin frame and fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the outer wall of the fuel tank, it is necessary to remove the resin frame after molding. The weight may increase.

Moreover, in order to provide a built-in component inside a fuel tank, it may carry out as shown in FIGS. 13-14 (for example, refer patent document 2).
First, as shown in FIG. 13, before the parison 108 enters the blow molding die 140, the built-in component 120 is placed on the support bar 141, and the blow molding die 140 is opened and positioned therein. Thereafter, the parison 108 is lowered while the blow molding die 140 is kept open so that the built-in component 120 is positioned inside the parison 108.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 14, before closing the blow molding die 140, the pressing pins 142 are taken out from both sides of the blow molding die 140, the parison 108 is pressed, and the parison 108 is moved to the side end of the built-in component 120. Press. At this time, since the inner surface of the parison 108 is not yet solidified, the side ends of the parison 108 and the built-in component 120 can be fused.
Then, the support bar 141 is lowered, the blow molding die 140 is closed, and air is blown to perform blow molding.

In this case, the attachment member welding surface 133 that contacts the parison 108 formed at the front end of the built-in component 120 is merely in contact with the inner surface of the parison 108, and the attachment member welding surface 133 does not enter the inside of the parison 108. The adhesiveness was weak and the fusion strength was not sufficiently high, and there was a risk of peeling due to vibration of the fuel or expansion of the fuel tank.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 15, a plurality of column-shaped contact pins 234 are formed on the attachment member welding surface 233 of the attachment member 230 having the cylindrical side wall 231 of the built-in component, and as shown in FIG. One that is pressed against and welded to the inner surface of 208 is considered (for example, see Patent Document 3).
At this time, it is necessary to increase the attachment member welding area between the attachment member welding surface 233 and the parison 208 so that the stress applied to the attachment member 230 of the built-in component is reduced in consideration of the low temperature impact property. .

Further, in order to secure the welding strength between the mounting member 230 and the parison 208, when the mounting member welding surface 233 is strongly pressed against the parison 208, a notch 209 that is a molten resin protrudes from the parison 208 as shown in FIG. Formed as follows. In this case, when an impact is applied to the welded portion of the mounting member 230, the stress concentrates on the notch 209, and there is a possibility that the outer wall of the fuel tank is stressed.

A layer 14, an internal adhesive layer 15, and an internal body layer 16 are formed. A built-in component 20 to be described later is welded to the inner main body layer 16. The built-in component 20 and the inner main body layer 16 are preferably made of materials that are easily welded, for example, the same type of material. Moreover, the outer wall 10 can be made into multilayers other than 1 layer or 6 layers.

In the blow molding, when the built-in component 20 is inserted into the cylindrical parison 8, or the cylindrical parison 8 is cut and flattened, the blow mold 40 is opened, and the cavity surfaces on both sides are opened. The built-in component 20 may be attached to the flat parison 8 by attaching.
As the blow molded parison 8, the parison 8 composed of the above six layers is used. A parison 8 having a layer configuration of six layers or more can also be used. In addition, the skin layer 11 is used when a reproducing member, a filler, or the like is mixed in the external main body layer 12, but the skin layer 11 can be omitted. Further, if a material having rigidity and fuel oil resistance is used, a one-layer parison can be used.

The skin layer 11 and the outer main body layer 12 are formed of a thermoplastic synthetic resin that has high impact resistance and maintains rigidity against fuel oil, and is preferably formed of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). When the outer main body layer 12 contains an inorganic filler, the outer skin layer 11 is used to cover the surface of the outer main body layer 12, and the surface can be smoothed without any inorganic filler appearing on the surface. .

For example, a built-in component 20 shown in FIG. 3 is attached inside the fuel tank 1. A method for attaching the built-in component 20 will be described later.

In the present embodiment, the attachment member welding surface 33 is formed integrally with the attachment member 30, but may be formed separately from the attachment member 30 at the tip of the attachment member 30.
The attachment member welding surface 33 of the attachment member 30 attached to the upper surface 21 of the built-in component 20 is welded to the inner surface of the parison 8 that forms the upper side wall of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 during blow molding. It can be installed inside the tank 1. Further, the attachment member welding surface 33 of the attachment member 30 formed downward in the upper surface hole 24 of the built-in component 20 is welded to the bottom wall side of the outer wall 10.

The built-in component 20 can be formed of a fuel oil-resistant thermoplastic synthetic resin such as polyacetal or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). As a result, the strength of the fuel tank 1 can be improved, and even if the fuel tank 1 is attached to the inside of the fuel tank 1, the rigidity does not decrease due to swelling by the fuel oil or the like.

As shown in FIG. 3, the built-in component 20 of the present embodiment is formed in a ring shape having a space in the center and a continuous periphery in a substantially square shape. In addition, in this invention, the built-in component 20 which connected the column member with the beam member other than the form shown in FIG. 3 can also be used.

The ring-shaped portion of the built-in component 20 according to the present embodiment includes an upper surface 21 whose upper surface is formed on a substantially flat surface, an outer surface 22 that hangs from the upper surface 21 at a substantially right angle to the outer periphery, and a center from the upper surface 21. The inner surface 23 is formed in a shape formed of an inner surface 23 that hangs substantially perpendicular to the space side of the portion, and the interior surrounded by the upper surface 21, the outer surface 22, and the inner surface 23 is a hollow shape that does not have a lower side surface having a U-shaped cross section. Is formed. For this reason, the built-in component 20 can reduce the weight as a whole, contribute to weight reduction of the vehicle, and can be flexibly deformed. The upper surface 21, the outer surface 22, and the inner surface 23 are partially formed with a narrow width at the corner portion or short side of the fuel tank 1.

As described above, the attachment member welding surface 33 can be fused with the lower inner surface of the outer wall 10 to attach the built-in component 20 to the inside of the fuel tank 1. Thereby, even if the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 expands or contracts due to a change in the internal pressure of the fuel tank 1, the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 can be held. Even if an impact is applied from the outside of the fuel tank 1 during the time t, the outer wall 10 can be held.

The outer side surface 22 and the inner side surface 23 are formed long in the longitudinal direction on the long side of the built-in component 20. For this reason, the outer side surface 22 and the inner side surface 23 are formed in a direction orthogonal to the direction of fuel movement in the fuel tank 1 when the vehicle is running. Even if the fuel moves or undulates, it is possible to prevent excessive movement of the fuel and to prevent the generation of undulation noise of the fuel oil inside the fuel tank 1 as well as the generation of abnormal noise. it can.

Next, the attachment member 30 will be described with reference to FIGS.
The attachment member 30 may be formed integrally with the built-in component 20 or may be formed separately from the built-in component 20. In the present embodiment, an example in which the attachment member 30 is formed separately will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 4 to 9, the attachment member 30 may be formed in a cylindrical or rectangular tube shape, or may be formed in a flat plate shape.
In the present embodiment, the mounting member 30 is formed in a cylindrical tube shape, FIG. 4 is a plan view of the mounting member 30, FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the mounting member 30, and FIG. 6 is a bottom view of the mounting member 30. It is.

The attachment member 30 is formed of an attachment member side wall 31 connected or continuous with the built-in component 20 and an abutment portion 32 that abuts against the inner surface of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1.
In the present embodiment, the attachment member 30 is formed separately from the built-in component 20. In this case, the attachment member side wall 31 is formed in a cylindrical shape in accordance with the shape of the upper surface 21 of the built-in component 20, and the inside is hollow.

As shown in FIG. 9, the attachment member 30 is formed in a long cylindrical shape separately from the built-in component 20, and the upper surface of the attachment member 30 is welded to the upper surface of the inner surface of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1. Can be welded to the lower surface of the inner surface of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1.
In this case, the inside of the mounting member 30 is hollow, and the mounting member side wall hole 35 can be formed in the mounting member side wall 31 as shown in FIG. The attachment member side wall hole 35 is formed so that a fluid such as fuel in the fuel tank 1 can flow in. For this reason, even if the several attachment member 30 is attached, the accommodation capacity of the fuel of the fuel tank 1 is not reduced.
A plurality of attachment member side wall holes 35 can be formed in two rows above and below the attachment member side wall 31, respectively. In this case, the upper mounting member side wall hole 35 functions to remove air, and the lower mounting member side wall hole 35 allows liquid to enter and exit.

The attachment member side wall hole 35 is preferably formed to be deformable by an impact from the outside of the fuel tank 1. In this case, even if an external impact is applied to the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1, the stress of the impact can be reduced by the deformation of the attachment member side wall hole 35.

In the present embodiment, the attachment member side wall hole 35 is formed in the attachment member side wall 31. However, when the attachment member 30 is flat, a cylindrical shape is formed in a portion close to the attachment member 30 of the built-in component 20. An attachment sidewall can be formed, and an attachment sidewall hole can be formed in the attachment sidewall. In this case, a fluid such as fuel can be introduced from the attachment side wall hole.

A locking portion 38 is formed at the lower end of the mounting member side wall 31, and when the mounting member side wall 31 is fitted into the tip of the upper surface 21 of the built-in component 20, as shown in FIGS. The attachment members 30 are firmly attached by engaging the 38 claws with the recesses or holes formed at the tip of the upper surface 21. The attachment member 30 uses the same type of material as the material of the outer wall 10 in order to fuse with the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1. The attachment member 30 can be formed of a fuel oil-resistant thermoplastic synthetic resin such as polyacetal or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), for example, as with the built-in component 20.

When the attachment member 30 is formed integrally with the built-in component 20, the attachment member side wall 31 is formed continuously with the upper surface 21.
The contact portion 32 includes a circular attachment member welding surface 33 facing the inner surface of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1, and a plurality of contact pins 34 protruding from the attachment member welding surface 33 toward the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1.

In the present embodiment, the contact pin 34 is formed in a cylindrical shape. The contact pin 34 may be formed in a truncated cone shape, or may be formed in an elliptic cylinder shape or a truncated cone shape having an elliptical cross section.
In addition, it is also possible to form a flat plate without forming the contact pin 34 on the attachment member welding surface 33.

Further, the height of the contact pin 34 from the attachment member welding surface 33 is formed smaller than the thickness of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1. For this reason, the attachment member welding surface 33 is in close contact with the inner surface of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1, and the maximum value of the dimension in which the contact pin 34 enters the inside of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 can be controlled. The abutment pin 34 can penetrate into the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 and can be firmly bonded to the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1. A contact pin groove portion 36 can be provided around the contact pin 34. Thereby, the flexibility of the contact pin 34 is improved.

As shown in FIG. 7, the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 is formed with an outer wall inner surface protruding portion 18 that protrudes inside the fuel tank 1. A planar outer wall inner surface welding surface 17 is formed on the surface of the outer wall inner surface protruding portion 18 facing the attachment member welding surface 33. For this reason, the outer wall inner surface protruding portion 18 is more rigid than the other portion of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 and can absorb an impact from the outside.
The outer wall inner surface welding surface 17 is welded to the attachment member welding surface 33 of the attachment member 30.

The outer wall inner surface welding surface 17 is formed to be smaller than the attachment member welding surface 33, and the attachment member welding surface 33 is formed to have a space on the outer peripheral side in the lateral direction from the outer wall inner surface welding surface 17. For this reason, when the attachment member welding surface 33 is welded to the outer wall inner surface welding surface 17, a molten protrusion 37 that is pushed out from the welded portion and protrudes in the pre-run direction is generated on the attachment member welding surface 33 side, and the low temperature from the outside Even if an impact is applied, the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 is not damaged.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, the outer wall inner surface welding surface 17 of the outer wall inner surface protrusion 18 can be formed thinner than other portions of the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank. In this case, the thickness of the outer wall inner surface welding surface 17 and the attachment member welding surface 33 can be made the same, and the stress on the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1 can be relieved even if an external impact is applied. Can do.

Next, a method for manufacturing the fuel tank 1 of the present invention by blow molding will be described with reference to FIGS.

At the same time, the plurality of pressing pins 42 provided on the blow molding die 40 are slid to press the parison 8 so as to be sandwiched between the mounting member 30 attached to the built-in component 20 and the pressing pins 42.

Then, since the inner surface of the parison 8 is still in a molten state, the attachment member welding surface 33 of the attachment member 30 and the parison 8 can be fused as described above. At this time, since the built-in component 20 is held by the support rod 41, the attachment member 30 and the built-in component 20 can be reliably attached to a predetermined position on the outer wall 10 of the fuel tank 1.
In addition, the attachment member welding surface 33 of the attachment member 30 can be heated in advance to be in a molten state to improve the welding strength.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 7, when the pressing pin 42 is formed, the pressing pin pressing protrusion 42b is formed on the pressing pin pressing surface 42a of the pressing pin 42, so that the parison 8 is pressed and the fuel An outer wall inner surface protrusion 18 is formed on the outer wall 10 of the tank 1. The attachment member welding surface 33 of the attachment member 30 is welded to the outer wall inner surface welding surface 17 of the outer wall inner surface protruding portion 18.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 12, the support bar 41 is lowered and removed from the blow molding die 40, the second pinch plate 44 is slid to close the parison 8, and the blow molding die 40 is closed to slide the cutter. At 46, the parison 8 is cut. When closing the blow molding die 40, the pressing pin 42 continues to press the parison 8 as it is. Thereby, the built-in component 20 can be kept in a predetermined position.

Then, air is blown into the inside of the parison 8 from the air nozzle 45, and the outer surface of the parison 8 is pressed against the blow molding die 40 to form the fuel tank 1. At this time, the front end surface of the pressing pin 42 and the cavity inner surface of the blow molding die 40 can be flush with each other.
Thereafter, the blow molding die 40 is opened and the fuel tank 1 is taken out.
