Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a mounting structure for an opening edge decorative member that decorates the overlapping part of a vehicle body flange forming an opening edge of an automobile and a trim flange of a trim. It is something.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as a mounting structure for an opening edge decorative member of this type of automobile, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 56-157150, a vehicle body flange portion forming an opening edge of the vehicle body and a trim of a trim have been used. It is known that the flange portions are overlapped with each other, and a garnish serving as an opening edge decorative member is clamped and fixed to the overlapping portion. When overlapping the vehicle body flange portion and the trim flange portion, a cut-and-raised portion that opens upward is formed in the vehicle body flange portion, and a cut-out portion is formed in the trim flange portion corresponding to the cut-and-raised portion. The trim flange portion is positioned with respect to the vehicle body flange portion by fitting the notch portion into the cut-and-raised portion and dropping into the inner bottom portion thereof.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in this case, when the car body flange part and the trim flange part are overlapped, the cut and raised part of the car body flange part protrudes to the side opposite to the overlapping surface of the trim flange part. Therefore, when clamping and fixing the garnish to the overlapping part, a large insertion force is required at the cut and raised part, and the garnish held in the overlapped part is bulged and deformed at the cut and raised part, resulting in poor appearance. I had a problem with it getting worse.

Further, the positioning of the trim flange portion with respect to the vehicle body flange portion is achieved by first overlapping the trim flange portion and the vehicle body flange portion while fitting the notch portion into the cut-and-raised portion, and in this state, further insert the above-mentioned notch portion into the cut-and-raised portion. There is also the problem that the work itself is not easy because it has to be dropped into the inner bottom.

The present invention has been devised in view of the above points, and its purpose is to improve the positioning structure of the trim flange portion with respect to the vehicle body flange portion so as to facilitate the positioning. The opening edge decorative member can be easily and visually attached to the overlapping portion of the trim flange portion and the vehicle body flange portion.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the solution of the present invention is to provide an opening edge that decorates the overlapping portion of a vehicle body flange portion forming a vehicle body opening edge and a trim flange portion of a trim in an automobile. In the mounting structure of decorative members,
The vehicle body flange portion is formed with a step portion that bulges toward a surface that overlaps with the trim flange portion, and the trim flange portion is formed with a notch portion that can be engaged with the step portion. The vehicle body flange portion and the trim flange portion are overlapped with each other so that the cutout portion and the step portion are engaged with each other so that the step portion and the trim flange portion are substantially flush with each other, and an opening edge is formed with respect to the overlapping portion. The decorative member is clamped and fixed.

(Function) With the above configuration, in the present invention, when the vehicle body flange portion and the trim flange portion are overlapped, the trim flange portion is simply engaged with the step portion of the vehicle body flange portion by simply engaging the notch portion of the trim flange portion with the stepped portion of the vehicle body flange portion. It is possible to perform positioning with respect to the vehicle body flange portion, and the positioning can be facilitated.

In addition, when the vehicle body flange portion and the trim flange portion are overlapped, the stepped portion of the vehicle body flange portion is almost flush with the trim flange portion, and protrudes to the side opposite to the overlapping surface of the trim flange portion. Since there are no objects, the opening edge decorative member can be easily clamped and fixed to the overlapping portion with a small insertion force, and the opening edge decorative member can be visually appealing without causing any bulging deformation or the like. It will be installed well.
