Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <<Technical Field of the Invention>> This invention relates to a mounting structure for a switch in a seat bag.

<<Prior art and its problems>> In some car models, a switch is mounted on the side of the seat back of the car, which is the easiest position to operate. This mounting structure is the same as that of wall outlets and wall switches commonly found in ordinary homes. However, in the case of a seat bag, a bracket is provided on the side frame or the side part of the frame, an opening is formed in this, a mounting reference surface is formed inside the bracket, the trim sheet around the opening is cut, and the switch body is mounted on the mounting reference surface. After installation, the switch finisher was attached with screws so as to cover the periphery of the opening in the trim sheet.

That is, in the past, the trim sheet was fixed by pressing the periphery of the opening of the trim sheet between the surface of the frame or bracket and the finisher.

However, in such a conventional mounting structure, a pulling force acts on the trim sheet every time the occupant moves. For this reason, there was a risk that the opening of the trim sheet would be displaced from the switch finisher and the frame would be exposed.

<<Purpose of the invention>> The purpose of this invention is to enable the trim sheet to be reliably fixed to the frame.

<<Structure of the invention>> In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a retaining wire of the trim clip protruding from the periphery of the mounting opening provided in the side part, and a winding allowance provided at the cutout end of the trim sheet. It is characterized by being fixed to a stop wire via a fastener.

<<Description of Embodiments>> FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing the mounting structure of a switch according to this invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view showing the mounted state.

In the figure, 1 is a side frame that constitutes a seat back, and 2 is a trim sheet that covers the surface of the side frame 1 via a pad P.

An opening 1a is formed at an appropriate position of the side frame 1 by press punching or the like, and a bracket part 4a for mounting the switch body 3 is formed at a higher part around the upper and lower inner sides of the opening 1a, and a bracket part 4a for mounting the switch body 3 is formed at a higher part above and below the opening 1a. A bracket portion 4b for mounting the finisher 5 is formed.

Further, a pair of retaining wires 6 for trim clips are arranged in parallel on both sides of the opening 1a, and both ends are fixed to the side frame 1 by welding or the like. Note that the stop wire 6 may be formed to protrude by punching the side frame 1 with a press.

The pad P facing the opening 1a is attached to each bracket portion 4.
An opening P1 that surrounds a, 4b and the wire 6 is formed. Further, the portion of the trim sheet 2 facing the opening 1a is trim-cut almost along the opening 1a to form a rectangular opening 2a. A pair of folding margins 2b are formed on both inner sides of the opening 2a.

The switch body 3 consists of a flange portion, that is, a mounting base 3a, fixed to the bracket portion 4b via screws B1, and three toggle-shaped operators 3b arranged protruding from the surface of the mounting base 3a. There is.

The switch finisher 5 is plate-shaped, and has three windows 5a in the center for exposing the controller 3b, and a pair of mounting holes 5b for inserting screws B2 at the top and bottom of the windows 5a. An opening is formed.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, the folding allowance 2b is folded into the side edge of the opening 1a, and with the opening edge of the pad P compressed, the ohm clip 7 is driven into the trim sheet 2, and the stop wire 6 is passed through. When formed into a loop shape, both sides of the opening of the trim sheet 2 are completely fixed to the side edges of the attachment opening 1a. Next, after attaching the mounting base 3a to the bracket part 4a,
Assembly is completed by positioning the switch finisher 5 in the opening 2a, inserting the screw B2 into the switch finisher 5, and screwing it into the mounting reference surface 4b on the side frame 1 side. In the assembled state,
The winding allowance 2a is held between the mounting base 3a and the finisher 5 under pressure.

When the trim sheet 2 is pulled by an external force, the winding margin 2a tries to come out, but is firmly held by the ohm clip 7.

<<Effect of the invention>> With the above-described structure, this invention can securely fix the trim sheet. That is, there is no dragging in the vicinity of the switch finisher due to the movement of the trim sheet, and it is possible to prevent deterioration of the design.
