Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a positioning device for synthetic resin retrofitted parts such as fenders to be attached to the outer skin of a vehicle such as an automobile.

To improve the appearance of the vehicle body by preventing the tap screws from being exposed on the outer surface of the retrofitted parts when attaching a synthetic resin retrofitted part such as a fender to the outer panel of the vehicle body using a fixing device such as a tap screw. It is necessary to To do this, mark the mounting points on the outer skin of the car body in advance, drill a mounting hole at the mounting point, and attach the retrofitted parts using tap screws or the like that pass through the mounting holes from the back side of the outer skin of the car body. That's what I do.

By the way, conventionally, as a means of attaching retrofitted parts, the mounting points for attaching retrofitted parts have been marked on the outer panel of the vehicle by using paper patterns or dimension instructions. Marking the attachment points is troublesome, and in particular, marking the attachment points accurately on the outer panel of a car body with a complex shape requires a lot of skill and time, which is inefficient.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and is a simple structure positioning device for retrofitted parts on a vehicle body, which allows for accurate marking of attachment points on the exterior of the vehicle body without the need for paper patterns or drawings. The purpose is to provide the following.

According to the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, a mounting boss for attachment to the vehicle body exterior panel is integrally provided on the back side of the synthetic resin retrofit component to be attached to the vehicle body exterior panel, and this mounting boss is provided with a sharp point. The base of the point marker having a sharp tip is removably locked.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In this embodiment, as shown in Fig. 1, synthetic resin front and rear fenders F and Fr, which are retrofitted parts, are fixed to the front and rear surfaces of an automobile body outer panel 1 by a plurality of tap screws 2. .

Hereinafter, the case where the present invention is applied to the front fender F will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5.
Synthetic resin front fender as shown in Figure 3
On the back surface of F, a plurality of short cylindrical mounting bosses 3 are protruded at intervals, and bottomed mounting holes 4 are formed in these mounting bosses 3.

As shown in FIG. 4, the base of the point marker 5 is inserted into and locked into the bottomed mounting hole 4 of each mounting boss 3 in a freely removable manner. The point marker 5 is formed into a flat poppet shape and has a sharp tip 5a.

As mentioned above, the front fender F has the base end of the point marker 5 locked to the plurality of mounting bosses 3.
After positioning and aligning the front fender F with the front fender mounting surface of the car body outer plate 1, the operator manually presses the front fender F toward the car body outer plate 1 as shown in FIG. The sharp tips 5a of 5... can mark attachment points P... on the outer panel 1 of the vehicle body. After the front fender F is separated from the vehicle body outer panel 1, through-mounting holes 6 shown in FIG. 2 are drilled at the attachment points P marked on the vehicle body outer panel 1 using a tool such as a drill.

Next, after removing the point markers 5 from the mounting bosses 3 of the front fender F, place the front fender F on the front fender mounting surface of the vehicle outer panel 1, and By screwing the tap screws 2 into the bottomed mounting holes 4 of the mounting bosses 3 through the through-mounting holes 6, the front fender F is accurately positioned on the front fender mounting surface of the vehicle body outer panel 1. Can be installed.
Instead of the tap screw 2, other fasteners such as bolts may be used.

The synthetic resin rear fender Fr shown in Figure 6 also
Using the mounting bosses 3', the mounting points can be precisely marked on the vehicle body outer panel 1 as shown in FIG. 1 by following exactly the same procedure as for the front fender F described above.

In the above embodiment, the case where the front fender F and the rear fender Fr are attached to the vehicle body outer panel 1 has been explained, but it goes without saying that other retrofitted parts can also be attached to the vehicle body outer panel 1 according to the present invention. The marker may have any shape.

As described above, according to the present invention, point marks for attaching retrofitted parts such as fenders can be accurately marked on the outer panel of the vehicle body by using the mounting bosses of retrofitted components such as fenders. The retrofitted parts can be accurately attached to the outer panel as well, and the work efficiency of attaching the retrofitted parts to the outer panel of the vehicle body can be greatly improved.

Further, since conventional paper patterns and dimension instruction drawings are no longer necessary, the above-mentioned installation work efficiency is improved and costs can be significantly reduced.
