The difference between the foot decorative material mounting structure 1'according to the second embodiment and the foot decorative material mounting structure 1 according to the first embodiment is that the back plate 4 and the back plate 22 are joined to the bolt B1. The only point is that it is not a bolt joint with a plate nut 5, but an engaging means made of a resin molded product. Therefore, the same configurations are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted.

The engaging means includes a resin molded product 6'having a round protrusion attached to the back plate 4'and an engaging recess attached to the side plate 24 and engaging with the round protrusion of the resin molded product 6'. It is composed of the formed resin molded product 6. Of course, the back plate 4'and the side plate 24 may be reversed at the place where the resin molded product 6'and the resin molded product 6 are attached.

The back plate 4'has substantially the same shape as the back plate 4 described above, but the width in the longitudinal direction is longer than that of the back plate 4, and the distance between the left and right side plates 24 is approximately the same. Therefore, the resin molded product 6'attached to the side plate 24 and the resin molded product 6'attached to both ends of the back plate 4'can be engaged with each other.

According to the foot decorative material mounting structure 1'according to the second embodiment described above, since the joint between the back plate 4'and the back plate 22 is not a bolt joint, naturally, the head of the bolt is on the front surface of the foot decorative material. Not exposed. Further, since the foot decorative material 2 and the back plate 4'are joined by the engaging means by the resin molded product, the foot decorative material 2 can be attached and detached extremely easily.
