The mounting structure 12 of the lighting device 10 according to the present embodiment is applied to a door lining (door trim) 14 mounted on the vehicle interior side of a vehicle door panel, for example, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. However, the mounting structure 12 of the present embodiment is not limited to this one embodiment, and the interior members of the vehicle other than the door lining 14 and objects other than the interior members are targeted for mounting, and the mounting target is illuminated. It is also possible to attach the device 10. In the following description, a case where the lighting device 10 is attached to the door lining 14 via the attachment structure 12 will be described.

A door armrest 16 is provided in the central portion of the door lining 14 made of plastic or the like along the front-rear direction (arrow A direction) of the vehicle, and below the door lining 14, a lower including a door pocket 18 for storing articles. A unit 17 and a speaker storage unit 20 for storing the speaker are provided. A part of the door pocket 18 is recessed to form a recess 22 capable of storing an article.

On the back side (outside of the vehicle interior) of the door lining 14 shown in FIG. 2, the lighting device 10 is attached to the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18 defining the recess 22 via the attachment structure 12. In this case, an irradiation hole portion 26 (see FIG. 1) is formed on the upper surface 24 corresponding to the illumination device 10, and the illumination device 10 irradiates the recess 22 with the illumination light 28 via the irradiation hole portion 26. To do.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, on the back side of the door lining 14, a plurality of mounting portions 32 having mounting holes 30 are formed at the upper end portion of the lower portion 17. The lower portion 17 can be attached to the door armrest 16 by engaging these attachment portions 32 with the plurality of claw portions 34 formed at the lower end portions of the door armrest 16. Since these mounting portions 32, the lighting device 10 and the mounting structure 12 are arranged so as to be displaced along the arrow A direction, the lighting device 10 is mounted and removed when the lower portion 17 is mounted and removed from the door armrest 16. And the presence of the mounting structure 12 does not get in the way. Since the configuration of the door lining 14 other than the door armrest 16 and the door pocket 18 is substantially the same as that of the known door lining, detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Next, the lighting device 10 and the mounting structure 12 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4 to 8.

The lighting device 10 has a substantially rectangular housing 40, and has a light source unit 44 having a light source 42 for outputting illumination light 28, and a connector connected to the light source unit 44 and connected to a wire harness 46 in a vehicle. It is composed of a part 48. In this case, the rectangular housing 40 is composed of a relatively small first block 40a on the one end side and a relatively large second block 40b on the other end side, and the light source unit 44 is in the first block 40a. The connector portion 48 is provided in the second block 40b.

In the present embodiment, the first block 40a is directed in the direction of the arrow A1 on the front side of the vehicle, and the second block 40b is directed in the direction of the arrow A2 on the rear side of the vehicle, and the door pocket 18 is provided via the mounting structure 12. The lighting device 10 is attached to the upper surface 24.

Here, as the light source 42, for example, a known LED or organic EL can be used. Further, the connector portion 48 has a connection terminal 50 connected to the wire harness 46, and the light source 42 can be driven by supplying electric power from a vehicle battery (not shown) via the wire harness 46.

The housing 40 has a bottom surface 52 as a mounting surface for the top surface 24 of the door pocket 18, four side surfaces 54 to 60 extending upward from the bottom surface 52, and an upper surface 62 facing the bottom surface 52. The bottom surface 52 is formed substantially flush with each other. The side surfaces 54 and 56 are side surfaces that are substantially orthogonal to the arrow B direction as the vehicle width direction of the vehicle. That is, the side surface 54 is a side surface in the direction of the arrow B1 toward the passenger compartment, and the side surface 56 is a side surface in the direction of the arrow B2 toward the outside of the passenger compartment. The side surface 58 is a side surface in the direction of arrow A1, and the side surface 60 is a side surface in the direction of arrow A2.

As described above, since the first block 40a and the second block 40b have different sizes and the bottom surface 52 of the housing 40 is substantially flush with each other, the second block 40b is compared with the first block 40a. Then, it bulges in the upward direction of the arrow C1 and in the direction of the arrow B, which is the vehicle width direction. Therefore, the side surface 54 is composed of the side surface 54a of the first block 40a and the side surface 54b of the second block 40b, and the side surface 56 is composed of the side surface 56a of the first block 40a and the side surface 56b of the second block 40b. .. The upper surface 62 is also composed of an upper surface 62a of the first block 40a and an upper surface 62b of the second block 40b.

Further, in the first block 40a corresponding to the light source portion 44, two rod-shaped protrusions 63 extend from the side surface 58 in the direction of arrow A1, and a claw-shaped protrusion (claw portion) 64 extends from the side surface 54a in the direction of arrow B1. A protrusion (claw portion) 66 having the same shape as the protrusion 64 extends from the side surface 56a in the direction of arrow B2.

On the other hand, in the second block 40b corresponding to the connector portion 48, a rod-shaped protrusion 68 extends in the direction of the arrow B1 at a portion on the side surface 54b on the side of the first block 40a, and the side surface 56b is on the side of the first block 40a. At the location, a protrusion 70 having the same shape as the protrusion 68 extends in the direction of arrow B2.

With respect to the lighting device 10 configured as described above, the mounting structure 12 according to the present embodiment is, for example, formed by resin molding using a mold 120 (see FIGS. 9 and 10) described later, so that the upper surface of the door pocket 18 is formed. It is integrally configured with 24.

As described above, since it is necessary to irradiate the recess 22 of the door pocket 18 with the illumination light 28 from the light source 42 via the irradiation hole 26, the mounting structure 12 provides the portion of the irradiation hole 26 on the upper surface 24. It is provided so as to surround it.

Specifically, the mounting structure 12 is formed with a receiving portion 80 on which the bottom surface 52 of the lighting device 10 is placed. The receiving portion 80 is composed of a plurality of ribs 82 that are erected from the upper surface 24 in the direction of the arrow C1.

As shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 8, the upper surface 24 is configured to have a curved shape that is inclined downward in the direction of arrow A2.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, in order to mount the lighting device 10 on the upper surface 24 at a desired mounting angle, the height of each rib 82 is adjusted according to the shape of the upper surface 24, so that the upper end portion of each rib 82 is attached. Are almost flush with each other. As a result, the mounting surface of the lighting device 10 on the receiving portion 80 is kept substantially flush with each other. By adjusting the height of each rib 82 so that the mounting surface is substantially flush with each other in this way, the lighting device 10 can be mounted on the receiving portion 80, and the lighting device 10 can be mounted on the upper surface 24. It is possible to adjust the angle to a desired angle.

In addition, in FIGS. 3 and 8, the upper end portion of each rib 82 is adjusted to the same height along the direction of arrow A which is the horizontal direction, and the mounting surface of the receiving portion 80 is kept substantially horizontal. It is shown in the figure. As described above, in the present embodiment, the mounting surface can be adjusted to a desired mounting angle by adjusting the height of each rib 82. Therefore, for example, the mounting surface has a predetermined angle with respect to the arrow A direction. It is also possible to adjust the height position of each rib 82 so that the surface is only inclined.

Further, as shown in the plan view of FIG. 7, a plurality of ribs 82 are formed along the arrow B direction around the substantially rectangular irradiation hole portion 26 extending along the arrow A direction. Therefore, the length of each rib 82 on the arrow A2 direction side provided so as to avoid the irradiation hole 26 is relatively long, and each rib 82 on the arrow A1 direction side provided so as to be in contact with the irradiation hole 26 is relatively long. The length of is relatively short.

Further, around these ribs 82, various mounting portions for fixing the lighting device 10 mounted on the receiving portion 80 are provided by supporting the side surfaces 54 to 60 of the housing 40. These mounting portions are erected in the direction of arrow C1 from the upper surface 24, are integrally formed with the upper surface 24, and are configured to be connectable to each rib 82.

Specifically, a substantially L-shaped wall portion 90 that supports the side surfaces 54a and 58 and a wall-shaped light source support portion 92 that supports the side surfaces 56a are erected as attachment portions to the first block 40a, respectively. .. In this case, the arrow B2 direction side of the wall portion 90 and the arrow A1 direction side of the light source support portion 92 are connected. Further, the light source support portion 92 is formed with a hole portion (engagement portion) 94 that engages with the claw-shaped protrusion 66. Further, a part of the wall portion 90 is formed as a recess 96 capable of accommodating the protrusion 64 by denting in the direction of the arrow B1.

A relatively short rib 82 provided in contact with the irradiation hole 26 is connected to a portion of the wall 90 on the arrow B1 direction side. Further, the light source support portion 92 is also connected with a relatively short rib 82 provided so as to be in contact with the irradiation hole portion 26 and a relatively long rib 82 provided so as to avoid the irradiation hole portion 26. ing. Further, the light source support portion 92 is also supported by another rib 98 extending in the direction of arrow B2.

On the other hand, a part of the wall portion 90, a wall-shaped connector support portion 100 connected to the wall portion 90 and supporting the side surface 54b, and a wall portion 102 supporting a part of the side surface 56b are formed by the second block 40b. It is erected as a mounting part for each.

In this case, the upper end portion of the connector support portion 100 is provided with a claw portion (engagement portion) 104 that engages with the side surface 54b and the upper surface 62b of the second block 40b. Further, a relatively long rib 82 provided so as to avoid the irradiation hole 26 is connected to the connector support portion 100. Further, the connector support portion 100 is also supported by another rib 105 extending in the direction of the arrow B1. Furthermore, a relatively long rib 82 provided so as to avoid the irradiation hole 26 is connected to the wall portion 102, and is also supported by another rib 106 extending in the direction of the arrow B2. ..

In the mounting structure 12, the portion between the light source support portion 92 and the wall portion 102 faces the connector support portion 100 and the claw portion 104, and also faces the side surface 56b of the second block 40b. Is formed as. Further, the openings of the irradiation hole portion 26, the hole portion 94, and the opening portion 107 are provided at positions separated from each other in order to avoid a decrease in rigidity in the mounting structure 12. Further, the light source support portion 92 and the connector support portion 100 are arranged so as to face each other in the oblique direction as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7. That is, the connector support portion 100 supports the side surface 54b of the second block 40b that constitutes one side surface 54 of the lighting device 10, and the light source support portion 92 constitutes the first block that constitutes the other side surface 56 of the lighting device 10. It supports the side surface 56a of 40a.

The procedure for mounting the lighting device 10 on the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18 using the mounting structure 12 configured as described above will be described.

First, in a plan view, the lighting device 10 is lowered along the arrow C2 direction in a state where the lighting device 10 is located inside the wall portions 90, 102, the light source support portion 92, and the connector support portion 100. As a result, the corners of the second block 40b formed by the bottom surface 52 and the side surface 54b come into contact with the claw portion 104.

When the lighting device 10 is further lowered in this state, the connector support portion 100 and the claw portion 104 are subjected to the pressing force from the corner portion to form the base end portion of the connector support portion 100 (the portion on the upper surface 24 side of the connector support portion 100). ) As a fulcrum, it warps integrally in the direction of arrow B1.

When the lighting device 10 is further lowered in this state, the side surface 54a of the first block 40a comes into contact with the wall portion 90, and the side surface 58 comes into contact with the wall portion 90 via the protrusion 63. Further, the side surface 56a comes into contact with the light source support portion 92. Further, the side surface 54b of the second block 40b contacts the connector support portion 100, and the side surface 56b also contacts the wall portion 102. As a result, the lighting device 10 can be slid (lowered) in the direction of arrow C2 along the wall surfaces of the wall portions 90 and 102, the light source support portion 92, and the connector support portion 100.

When the bottom surface 52 of the housing 40 comes into contact with the upper end of each rib 82, the lighting device 10 is mounted on the mounting surface of the receiving portion 80, and the light source 42 and the irradiation hole portion 26 face each other. .. In this case, since the position of the upper surface 62b of the second block 40b is lower than the lower end 108 of the claw portion 104, the connector support portion 100 and the claw portion 104 are released from the pressed state from the second block 40b. , Returns to the original state before pressing.

As a result, the claw portion 104 engages with the side surface 54b and the upper surface 62b of the second block 40b, and cooperates with the connector support portion 100 and the wall portion 102 to fix the second block 40b (connector portion 48). become. Further, also in the first block 40a, since the protrusion 66 engages with the hole 94 of the light source support portion 92 and the protrusion 64 is housed in the recess 96 of the wall portion 90, the light source support portion 92 is the wall portion 90. The first block 40a (light source unit 44) will be fixed in cooperation with.

Here, in the first block 40a, the side surface 54a and the side surface 58 (via the protrusion 63) are supported by the wall portion 90, and the side surface 56a is supported by the light source support portion 92. On the other hand, in the second block 40b, the side surface 54b is supported by the wall portion 90 and the connector support portion 100, the side surface 56b is supported by the wall portion 102, and the two rod-shaped protrusions 68 and 70 are the wall portion 90 and the light source support portion. It is supported by 92. Therefore, the wall portions 90 and 102, the light source support portion 92, and the connector support portion 100 also function as position restricting portions for restricting the displacement of the lighting device 10 in the horizontal directions of the arrow A and the arrow B.

When the lighting device 10 is mounted on the upper surface 24 via the mounting structure 12, as shown in the plan view of FIG. 7, the center 110 of the light source 42 (the emission portion of the illumination light 28) and the irradiation hole portion It is deviated from the central axis 112 along the arrow A direction of 26 by a distance d. That is, the irradiation hole portion 26 is offset from the light source 42 to the outside of the vehicle (in the direction of arrow B2) by a distance d. As a result, when the recess 22 of the door pocket 18 is irradiated with the illumination light 28 from the light source 42, the portion outside the vehicle in the recess 22 is mainly illuminated, so that the illumination light is applied to the space inside the vehicle interior outside the recess 22. It is possible to avoid the 28 being irradiated.

Further, since the irradiation hole 26 is formed in a long rectangular shape in the direction of the arrow A, which is the front-rear direction of the vehicle, it is possible to irradiate the illumination light 28 in the front-rear direction in the recess 22. Even when the light source 42 is displaced in the direction of the arrow A, the illumination light 28 can be reliably applied to the recess 22.

By the way, in order to remove the lighting device 10 attached in this way from the upper surface 24 and the attachment structure 12, the following may be performed.

First, the connector support portion 100 and the claw portion 104 are bent in the direction of arrow B1 with the base end portion of the connector support portion 100 as a fulcrum, and the engagement state between the claw portion 104 and the second block 40b is released. Further, with the base end portion of the light source support portion 92 as a fulcrum, the upper end portion of the light source support portion 92 is bent in the direction of arrow B2 to release the engagement state between the protrusion 66 and the hole portion 94. Then, if the lighting device 10 is pulled up in the direction of the arrow C1 while maintaining these released states, the lighting device 10 can be removed from the mounting structure 12.

9 and 10 schematically show a case where the mounting structure 12 of the present embodiment is molded by using the mold 120.

The mold 120 is composed of an upper mold 122 and a lower mold 124.

As described above, since the mounting structure 12 of the present embodiment is integrally configured with the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18, when the mounting structure 12 is molded, the lower mold 124 is slid in the direction of arrow C2. I can't. Further, since the connector support portion 100 is provided with the claw portion 104, the portion below the claw portion 104 becomes an undercut, and it is difficult to form the upper die 122. Further, the rib 82, the wall portions 90 and 102, the light source support portion 92 and the connector support portion 100 are erected from the upper surface 24, respectively, and the wall portions 90, 102, the light source support portion 92 and the connector support portion 100 are attached to each mounting portion. , It is formed so as to surround each rib 82. Therefore, the mounting structure 12 is a complicated structure.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the upper mold 122 and the lower mold 124 are configured as follows. Note that FIG. 9 is a schematic representation of the planar shapes of the upper die 122 and the lower die 124 at the height position of the undercut portion described above, and FIG. 10 is a schematic representation of the upper die 122 and the lower die 124. It is a front view which is shown in the form.

First, the lower mold 124 is configured to slide in the direction of arrow B along the upper surface 24.

That is, when molding the mounting structure 12, the lower mold 124 is arranged on the side in the arrow B2 direction with respect to the forming positions of the light source support portion 92 and the wall portion 102. However, as shown in FIG. 9, a part of the lower mold 124 is configured as an extension portion 126 that passes through the opening 107 and extends to the formation position of the connector support portion 100. In this case, the height of the extending portion 126 is set to the height of the lower end portion 108 of the claw portion 104. The height of the mounting structure 12 in the lower mold 124 is generally set to the height of the light source support portion 92 and the wall portion 102, except for the extension portion 126.

Therefore, if the upper mold 122 is lowered in the direction of arrow C2 after the heat-melted resin is poured in the state where the lower mold 124 is arranged as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the shape shown in FIGS. 4 to 8 can be obtained. The mounting structure 12 can be molded. After molding, the upper die 122 may be raised in the direction of arrow C2 and the lower die 124 may be slid in the direction of arrow B2.

As described above, according to the mounting structure 12 of the lighting device 10 according to the present embodiment, the lighting device 10 is the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18 constituting the door lining 14 to be mounted via the mounting structure 12. Since the connector portion 48 is supported by the connector support portion 100, the connector portion 48 can be stably supported even if the vibration or load from the wire harness 46 is transmitted to the connector portion 48. .. Therefore, the lighting device 10 including the connector portion 48 can be stably supported.

Further, if the light source portion 44 is supported by the light source support portion 92 and the connector portion 48 is supported by the connector support portion 100, the lighting device 10 can be supported more stably. Moreover, the light source support portion 92 supports the side surface 56a of the first block 40a corresponding to the light source portion 44, and the connector support portion 100 supports the side surface 54b of the second block 40b corresponding to the connector portion 48. That is, the two support portions support the two side surfaces 54 and 56 of the lighting device 10 so as to face each other. As a result, the lighting device 10 can be easily and more stably supported.

Further, in the present embodiment, since the wall portions 90, 102, the light source support portion 92, and the connector support portion 100 support the side surfaces 54, 56, and 58 of the lighting device 10, the side surfaces 54, 56, and 58 are supported along the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18. It is possible to regulate the displacement in the vertical direction, that is, the displacement of the lighting device 10 in the lateral direction (direction of arrow A and direction of arrow B). As a result, the position regulation and more stable support of the lighting device 10 mounted on the mounting structure 12 can be easily realized.

Moreover, since the wall portion 90, the light source support portion 92, and the connector support portion 100 are integrally formed, the rigidity of these mounting portions is improved, and the lighting device 10 can be supported more stably. .. That is, by connecting the wall portion 90 and the connector support portion 100 along the arrow A direction and connecting the wall portion 90 and the light source support portion 92 along the arrow A direction, the rigidity of each mounting portion is increased. It is possible to realize both the securing and the reliable position regulation of the lighting device 10.

Further, the claw portion 104 provided on the connector support portion 100 engages with the second block 40b, the hole portion 94 of the light source support portion 92 and the protrusion 66 engage with each other, and the protrusion 64 is formed in the recess 96 of the wall portion 90. By being housed, the lighting device 10 can be supported more stably. That is, since the claw portion 104 engages with the second block 40b in which vibration and load from the wire harness 46 are easily transmitted, the rigidity is improved as compared with the engagement by the hole, and the connector portion 48 is stably supported. Can be done. Further, since the holes 94 and the recesses 96 are engaged with the protrusions 64 and 66 of the first block 40a where the vibration and the load from the wire harness 46 are hard to be transmitted, the light source portion 44 can be stably supported.

Moreover, since the hole 94 is provided in the direction of arrow B2 on the outside of the vehicle interior, the operator can visually recognize the lighting device 10 when attaching the lighting device 10 to the door pocket 18 before attaching the door lining 14 to the door panel. The hole 94 will be located at an easy location. This makes it easy to confirm whether or not the protrusion 66 of the first block 40a and the hole 94 are engaged with each other.

Further, in the present embodiment, the opening 107 is provided so as to face the connector support portion 100. As a result, when the mounting structure 12 is formed using the mold 120, a part of the claw portion 104 below the lower end portion 108 is formed by the lower mold 124, and at least the upper portion from the lower end portion 108 is formed by the upper mold 122. be able to. Further, when the extension portion 126 extending from the lower mold 124 to the connector support portion 100 via the opening 107 is provided, the lower mold 124 is slid in the arrow B2 direction after the mounting structure 12 is formed by the mold 120. By doing so, the lower die 124 can be easily die-cut, and the upper die 122 can also be die-cut in the direction of arrow C1 to obtain the mounting structure 12 having a desired shape.

That is, in the present embodiment, the formation positions of the light source support portion 92 and the wall portion 102 are set in the arrow A direction so that the connector support portion 100 provided with the claw portion 104 and the light source support portion 92 and the wall portion 102 do not face each other. By providing the opening 107 in a staggered manner, it is possible to prevent the upper mold 122 and the lower mold 124 constituting the mold 120 from becoming complicated and useless structures.

In the above description, the opening 107 is provided so as to face the connector support portion 100, but another opening is provided so as to face the light source support portion 92, and the light source is provided through the other opening. Another extension portion extending to the support portion 92 may be provided in the lower mold 124. Even in this case, the same effect can be obtained.

Further, by shifting the positions of the irradiation hole portion 26, the hole portion 94, and the opening portion 107 from each other, it is possible to prevent the locations where the rigidity is lowered due to the formation of the openings from being concentrated in one location in the mounting structure 12. ..

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, since the mounting structure 12 and the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18 of the door lining 14 as the mounting target are integrally configured, the lighting device 10 is attached to the receiving portion 80 of the mounting structure 12. The lighting device 10 is supported and fixed to the upper surface 24 by the wall portions 90, 102, the light source support portion 92, the hole portion 94, the recess 96, the connector support portion 100, and the claw portion 104. The installation work is completed. As a result, the number of parts and the work man-hours can be reduced as compared with the conventional case, and the lighting device 10 can be mounted on the upper surface 24 with a simpler configuration. Further, the rigidity of the mounting structure 12 is also improved by integrally forming the mounting structure 12 and the upper surface 24.

That is, as compared with the case where the lighting device 10 is fixed to a member separate from the door lining 14 and the separate member is fixed to the door lining 14 by a screw or the like, in the present embodiment, the mounting structure 12 is integrated with the door pocket 18. Since the lighting device 10 is directly attached to the upper surface 24 of the door pocket 18 via the attachment structure 12, the attachment work becomes simple and easy, and the mechanical strength of the attachment structure 12 is also improved.

Further, in the present embodiment, since the receiving portion 80 functions as a mounting angle variable portion capable of adjusting the mounting angle of the lighting device 10 with respect to the upper surface 24, the lighting output from the lighting device 10 is performed by adjusting the mounting angle. The irradiation angle of the light 28 can be set to a desired angle.

Further, since the receiving portion 80 also functions as a height adjusting portion for keeping the mounting surface of the lighting device 10 substantially horizontal, if the height of the receiving portion 80 is adjusted according to the state of the upper surface 24, the receiving portion 80 can be attached. The angle can be easily changed. As a result, it is possible to attach the lighting device 10 to the receiving portion 80 while keeping the mounting surface substantially horizontal while setting the irradiation angle of the lighting light 28 output from the lighting device 10 to a desired angle. ..

Further, in the receiving portion 80, a plurality of ribs 82 erected from the upper surface 24 function as height adjusting portions, and since these ribs 82 are provided integrally with the upper surface 24, the number of parts can be suppressed. , The rigidity of the mounting structure 12 can be increased.

Moreover, since at least one rib 82 is connected to each of the wall portions 90, 102, the light source support portion 92, and the connector support portion 100, the irradiation angle of the illumination light 28 output from the illumination device 10 is desired. While setting the angle to, the rigidity of these mounting portions can also be improved.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it is naturally possible to adopt various configurations without departing from the gist of the present invention.
