Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for an automobile molding.

[Prior Art] Automotive moldings, which are attached to the window glass of automobiles, are designed to reduce air resistance during driving.
Recently, there is a tendency to become thinner and thinner.

The molding is generally attached to a clip fixed to the body side, but in order to prevent the molding from protruding from the body and to secure a cross section for the attachment part, a recess for the molding attachment is provided in the outer panel of the body. A structure is adopted in which a molding attachment clip is fixed to the molding, and the locking legs of the molding are fitted into the claws of the clip. This type of conventional automotive molding mounting structure will be explained based on FIGS. 3 and 4.

FIG. 3 shows the clip 12 fixed to the panel 10.
FIG. 4 is a side view of the molding attachment portion for explaining a state in which the molding 14 is fitted to the molding member. The clip 12 is fixed to the panel 10 with a grommet screw 16,
As shown in FIG. 4, it has three upright locking pieces 18, 20, 22 that are not opposed to each other. The upright locking pieces 18, 20 and the upright locking piece 22 have claw portions 18A, 20A and a claw portion 22A in opposite directions, and the locking legs 24 of the molding 14 are attached to these claw portions. 26 is adapted to be locked.

The molding 14 is a roll-molded product with a constant cross section, but if a curved portion is provided for design reasons, the cross section will collapse to some extent near the curved portion. Furthermore, as mentioned above, moldings tend to become thinner and thinner, so the rigidity of the molding itself becomes weaker. For this reason, when attaching the molding, the locking legs 24 and 26 of the molding 14 are attached to the upright locking piece 1 of the clip 12.
8, 20 and the upright locking piece 22, causing a failure in assembly of the molding 14.

In order to solve this problem, Figures 5 and 6
As shown in the figure, the upright locking piece 18 of the clip 12,
20 and the standing locking piece 22, a rib 28 is provided between the locking leg 20 of the molding 14 and the locking leg 22 of the molding 14.
4 and 26 are the standing locking pieces 18 and 20 of the clip 12.
It has also been proposed to prevent it from getting between the holder and the upright locking piece 22.

However, due to the fit between the curved part of the molding 14 and the clip 12, the external width of the clip 12 is limited.
Furthermore, due to the structure of the mold for forming the clip 12, it was difficult to provide space for forming the ribs 28 and the necessary strength.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] Taking the above facts into consideration, the present invention provides a molding mounting structure that does not require the formation of ribs as described above, has a simple structure, and can reliably prevent installation defects. It is intended to.

[Means for solving the problems] In the mounting structure of the automotive molding according to the present invention,
In a molding mounting structure in which a molding is locked to a clip having at least two upright locking pieces having claw portions in opposite directions at mutually opposing positions, the opposing parts overlap each other at the tops of the upright locking pieces. The molding has a structure in which overhanging edges are respectively formed to constitute inclined portions for guiding the locking leg portions of the molding to the claw portions.

[Function] In the molding mounting structure configured as described above, the inner sides of the upright locking pieces having claws facing in opposite directions are closed by the projecting edges, so that the locking leg of the molding is inserted between both the upright locking pieces. In the event of an attempt to enter, the locking leg of the molding is guided along the ramp to the pawl. Therefore, the locking leg of the molding is prevented from entering between the two upright locking pieces, and the locking leg of the molding can be reliably locked in the claws of both the upright locking pieces. .

[Embodiment] An embodiment of the automotive molding mounting structure according to the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

In this embodiment, the clip 30 fixed to the panel 10 by the grommet screw 16 has a pair of upright locking pieces 32, 34 and a pair of upright locking pieces 36, 38.
are formed at positions facing each other, and projecting edges 32A, 34A, 36A, 38A are formed inside the tops of these upright locking pieces 32, 34, 36, 38, respectively.
are formed, and the overhanging edges 32A and 34A, and the overhanging edges 36A and 38A are formed so as to overlap each other.

The molding 14 has its locking legs 24 locked with respective claws 40 and 44 of the upright locking pieces 32 and 36, and its locking legs 26 locking with the respective claws 40 and 44 of the upright locking pieces 34 and 36.
8, respectively.

In this embodiment, between the pair of upright locking pieces 32 and 34 and between the pair of upright locking pieces 36 and 38, the overhanging edges 32A, 34A and 36 that overhang from these
A, 38A, so even if the position of the locking leg 24 or the locking leg 26 of the molding 14 is slightly shifted when the molding is fitted, the locking section 38A is closed along the top slope surface of each standing locking piece. , each will be reliably guided to the corresponding claw portion.

Note that in this embodiment, the projecting edges 32A, 36
A is stacked on the overhanging edges 34A and 38A, but these may be stacked in reverse.

[Effects of the invention] As explained above, in the automotive molding mounting structure according to the invention, the opposing parts overlap each other at the top of the upright locking piece of the clip to guide the locking leg of the molding to the claw part. Since the projecting edges constituting the sloping parts are formed respectively, if the latching legs of the molding try to enter between the two upright latching pieces, the latching legs of the molding will not fit into the sloping part. It is guided to the claw part along. Therefore, the locking leg of the molding is prevented from entering between the two upright locking pieces, and the locking leg of the molding can be reliably locked in the claws of both the upright locking pieces. , has a simple structure and has the effect of reliably preventing installation defects.
