Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

0001

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for attaching articles to motor vehicles.

0002

[Prior Art] Conventionally, when attaching an electronic control device to the lower surface of a dashboard in a vehicle, the central horizontal part of an inverted U-shaped bracket is screwed to the dashboard, and the electronic control device is placed between the hanging parts on both sides of the bracket. The side part of the electronic control device is screwed into the hanging part.

0003

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, the prior art has the following problems (1) and (4).

(2) The bracket is exposed in a wide area around the electronic control device, and the mounting screws are also exposed. Therefore, the appearance is spoiled.

(2) Since the hanging portions of the bracket extend outward on both sides of the electronic control device, a mounting space larger than the width of the electronic control device itself is required.

[0006] It is also conceivable to attach the electronic control device directly to the dashboard via double-sided adhesive tape. However, the surface of the dashboard is curved or uneven, making it difficult to adhere with double-sided adhesive tape. Therefore, under direct sunlight such as in summer, the adhesive force weakens and the electronic control device may fall off.

[0007] The present invention provides a method for attaching automotive articles to a support such as a dashboard without damaging the appearance.
The purpose is to make it compact and reliably attachable.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention provides an automotive article attachment device for attaching an article to a support, which includes a screw hole for screwing to the support, and an end face on the opposite side of the support. an opening opening at at least two positions around the virtual attachment center axis, and a slit extending from the opening around the virtual attachment center axis and opening at an end surface on the side opposite to the support body; A first locking groove extending from the depth of the opening along the slit;
an attachment body, and an end surface on the side of the first attachment body is formed protruding at at least two positions around the virtual attachment center axis so as to correspond to the opening provided in the first attachment body. , a second attachment body including a locking claw portion that is inserted into the opening from the side opposite to the support body, moves along the slit, and can be locked in the locking groove; and the second attachment body. A double-sided adhesive tape is attached to the end surface of the body opposite to the first attaching body, and is capable of adhering and holding the article.

[0009]

[Operation] In the present invention, the first attachment body is screwed to a support such as a dashboard, and the second attachment body is fixed to an article such as an electronic control device using double-sided adhesive tape. Then, holding the article, insert the locking claw part of the second attaching body into the opening of the first attaching body, and further rotate the article by, for example, 40 degrees,
The locking claw portion is moved along the slit of the first attachment body and is locked in the locking groove portion. This allows the article to be attached to and removed from the support.

Therefore, according to the present invention, there are the following effects (1) to (4).

(2) The attachment device is sandwiched between the support and the article, and its constituent parts are not exposed to the outside and do not impair the appearance.

(2) The attachment device is compact and fits within the width of the article itself.

[0013] Since both the end face of the second attaching body to which the double-sided adhesive tape is attached and the surface of the article can be made flat,
Can ensure strong adhesion.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the attachment device 10 includes:
This is for attaching an electronic control device 12 to an in-vehicle dashboard 11.

[0016] Here, the attachment device 10 has a first attachment body 1.
3, a second attaching body 14, and a double-sided adhesive tape 15.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first attachment body 13 is provided with a screw hole 21 for screwing to the dashboard 11 with a set screw 16, and has a virtual attachment center on the end surface opposite to the dashboard. It has an opening 22 that opens at two positions around the axis, and a slit 23 that extends from the opening 22 around the virtual attachment center axis and opens at the end surface on the side opposite to the dashboard. A locking groove portion 24 is provided which extends from the portion along the slit 23. A recess 25 is provided in a part of the bottom surface of the locking groove 24 .

As shown in FIG. 4, the second attachment body 14 has an opening 22 provided in the first attachment body 13 on the end surface thereof on the side of the first attachment body 13. Locking claws 31 are formed protruding at two positions around the virtual attachment center axis, are inserted into the opening 22 from the side opposite to the dashboard, can move along the slit 23, and can be locked in the locking groove 24. Be prepared. A part of the distal end surface of the locking claw portion 31 has a recess 25 of the locking groove portion 24.
A convex portion 32 is provided to be engaged with.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the double-sided adhesive tape 15 is attached to the end surface of the second attaching body 14 opposite to the first attaching body 13, and adheres the electronic control device 12. Make it possible to hold it.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained.

In the above embodiment, the first mounting body 13 is screwed to the dashboard 11 with the setscrew 16, and the second mounting body 14 is fixed to the electronic control unit 12 with the double-sided adhesive tape 15. do. Then, using the electronic control device 12, insert the locking claw portion 31 of the second attachment body 14 into the opening 22 of the first attachment body 13, and further rotate the electronic control device 12, for example, by 40 degrees, and then The locking claw portion 31 is attached to the first mounting body 1
3 along the slit 23 and is locked in the locking groove 24. Thereby, the electronic control device 12 can be attached to and detached from the dashboard 11.

A circular center recess 13A is provided at the virtual attachment center of the end surface of the first attachment body 13 on the side opposite to the dashboard, and A circular central convex portion 14A is provided at the virtual attachment center of the end face 13, and the central convex portion 14A can fit into the central concave portion 13A. The central concave portion 13A and the central convex portion 14A serve as positioning guides for both attachment bodies 13 and 14 for inserting the locking claw portion 31 of the second attachment body 14 into the opening 22 of the first attachment body 13. ,
and the locking claw portion 31 of the second attachment body 14 is connected to the first attachment body 1.
It functions as a guide for moving along the slit 23 of No. 3.

Therefore, according to the above embodiment, the following
It has the function and effect of

(2) The mounting device 10 is sandwiched between the dashboard 11 and the electronic control device 12, and its components are not exposed to the outside, so that the appearance is not impaired.

(2) The attachment device 10 is compact and fits within the width of the electronic control device 12 itself.

(2) Since both the end face of the second attaching body 14 to which the double-sided adhesive tape 15 is attached and the surface of the electronic control device 12 can be made flat, a strong adhesive force can be ensured.

The mounting device of the present invention can be widely used for mounting automobile articles other than electronic control devices.

[0028]

As described above, according to the present invention, when an article for an automobile is attached to a support such as a dashboard, it can be attached compactly and reliably without spoiling the appearance.
