F. Example The mounting mechanism for the automobile visor of the present invention will be explained based on the drawings.

The drawing shows an example of a passenger seat side visor formed to be attached to a four-door type vehicle, but the component of the automobile to which the automobile visor according to the present invention is attached has a glass run insertion groove 24 facing downward in the opening. Automobile door frame 21 with
An outer frame 22 extends upward. This outer frame 22 is a protruding plate that forms a weather strip fitting groove 28 that is formed upward in the opening at the upper end of the automobile door frame 21, and has a weather strip locking protrusion on its inner surface. 29 is installed protrudingly.

The mounting plate portion 2 of the visor 1 has a bent shape that matches the upper edge of the automobile door frame 21, and the surface 7 of the mounting plate portion 2 is attached to the outer frame 22.
It has a substantially planar shape that matches the outer surface. The eaves body 3 of the visor 1 is connected to the lower edge of the mounting plate portion 2 in a downwardly inclined manner, and the lower coupling fittings 31 are arranged at a desired interval in the middle part of the eaves body 3 in the longitudinal direction. Two bolt insertion holes 14 for fixing are bored. In addition, the front end 5 and rear end 6 of the visor 1
In this case, a mounting plate portion 2 is extended downward at right angles to a desired length, and a triangular eaves body side portion 4 is formed between the extended mounting plate portion 2 and the eaves body 3. Further, on the eaves side portion 4 of the tip portion 5, there is a plate-shaped locking plate at the tip of the mounting plate portion 2 so as to be inserted between the triangular patch surface where the side mirror is fixed and the outer frame 22. Pieces 9 are arranged in series.

Further, on the above-mentioned surface 7 of the visor mounting plate portion 2,
The back side of a well-known double-sided adhesive tape 11 with a release paper 12 adhered to the front surface is adhered to the entire surface thereof.

The lower coupling fitting 31 has a tip portion 32 that matches the shape of the bottom portion 25 of the glass run insertion groove 24 so as to fit into the glass run insertion groove 24, and a lower edge 26 of the glass run insertion groove that is connected to the bottom of the outer frame 22. U-shaped approximately central portion 3 with the opening facing upward so as to sandwich the
3, and a base end 34 which is in contact with the lower surface of the eaves body and has a bolt hole 35 that matches the bolt insertion hole 14, and is formed by integrally bending the metal plate. It is formed.

The clip 41 is formed by bending a metal plate into a U-shaped cross section, and the clip 41 pinches the mounting plate 2 of the visor 1 and the outer frame 22 by the inward spring force of the clip 41. The inner piece 43 inserted between the outer frame 22 and the weather strip 27 is pressed against the outer frame 22 by the restoring force of the weather strip 27, so that it is difficult to come off. A recessed portion 42 that matches the weather strip locking portion 29 is extended.

It should be noted that the visor attachment part 2 can be assembled with the adhesive strength of the double-sided adhesive tape 11 and the clip 4 even without the lower coupling fitting 31.
It is securely attached to the outer frame 22 by the bonding force of 1, and the lower coupling fitting 31 and the clip 41
