Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an interior part for a vehicle such as an automobile, and more particularly to a structure of an interior part for a vehicle that does not cause rolling when attached to a vehicle body panel.

Vehicle interior parts, such as roof corner trims and center pillar trims, are made by covering a foamed synthetic resin pad such as urethane with a skin material such as PVC leather or cloth, which is lined with a core material such as a hard synthetic resin or metal, and then clips. Generally, assembly is performed by joining the core material to the vehicle body panel using tools such as the above. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing the state in which such interior parts are attached. The interior component 1 formed of the pad and the skin material as described above is lined with a core material 2. A plurality of mounting seats 3 (see FIG. 2 below) are fixed to the core member 2 at appropriate intervals in the longitudinal direction. Attachment is carried out by inserting the legs of a metal clip 5 into the horizontal holes 4 of the mounting seat 3 and the head of the clip 5 into the mounting holes 7 provided in the vehicle body panel 6.

However, in such a configuration, a gap (g in the figure) is inevitably created between the mounting seat 3 and the vehicle body 6. Therefore, the interior component 1 is likely to roll in the direction of the arrow in the figure. FIG. 2 is an overview diagram of the assembled state of the interior parts, and when the interior part 1 rolls as described above, the mating parts 1a, 1b
The alignment at the mating portions 8, 8 will be poor, and the appearance will be poor. Also, during assembly work, it interferes with other parts (ceiling welts, etc.), reducing work efficiency.

The present invention has been made with the intention of solving the above-mentioned conventional problems. That is, the present invention provides a vehicle interior part configured to be attached to a vehicle body panel as described above, by providing hard protrusions on both sides of the clip attachment portion of the mounting seat and bringing the protrusions into contact with the vehicle body panel. The purpose is to prevent interior parts from rolling. The configuration of the present invention will be explained below based on the embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing one embodiment of the mounting seat and clip used for the vehicle interior parts of the present invention.
The legs of the clip 5 are inserted into the horizontal hole 4 provided in the mounting seat 3 as described above, and projections 9 are integrally provided on both sides of the horizontal hole 4 on the upper surface of the mounting seat 3. It is being The protrusions 9, 9 are provided at a required height on both sides of the upper surface in parallel to the clip leg insertion direction. This mounting seat 3 is fixed to the core material 2 of the interior component 1 in the same manner as described above, and is attached to the vehicle body panel 6 using the clips 5. FIG. 4 is a sectional view showing this attached state. As seen in the figure, the upper surface of the projection 9 provided on the upper surface of the mounting seat 3 is in contact with the vehicle body panel 6. The height of this protrusion 9 is preset to a height suitable for abutting against the vehicle body panel 6 when attached in this manner.
With this configuration, the hard protrusions 9 that are in contact with the vehicle body panel 6 restrain the movement of the interior parts, and the interior parts do not roll as shown in FIG. 1.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of the mounting seat. In this example, protrusions 9a, 9a are provided at the four corners of the upper surface of the mounting seat 3. The same purpose can be achieved even if the protrusion 9 does not extend over the entire length of the upper surface as in the previous example. The mounting seat 3 may be made of hard synthetic resin or metal as long as it has the required strength and can be fixed to the core material 2, and the protrusions 9, 9a may be molded integrally with the main body of the mounting seat 3 or may be formed separately. It is also possible to use adhesives, welds, etc.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, it is possible to completely prevent interior parts from falling when they are attached to the vehicle body, eliminating poor alignment at joints with other parts, and improving exterior quality. improves. Furthermore, since there is no interference with other parts, work efficiency during assembly is improved. Furthermore, in the case of conventional products, in order to prevent parts from falling as much as possible using clips alone, it was necessary to increase the strength of the clips and their fitting force, but with the present invention, this is no longer necessary, and the clips are used to attach parts to panels. Since all that is needed is to securely attach the parts, it becomes easy to attach and detach the parts and to hold them. Furthermore, since the component core material is sufficiently supported by the panel, the rigidity of the core material after assembly is improved. As described above, the present invention has many advantages and is extremely effective.
