Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a drip molding for a vehicle.

BACKGROUND ART FIG. 4 is a general side view of a passenger car.
Drip channel 6 disposed from the rear end of the roof side portion 4 on the periphery of the opening 3 formed in the side portion of the vehicle body to which the front door 1 and the rear door 2 are attached, and extending from the rear end of the roof side portion 4 to the waist portion of the front pillar 5.
A drip molding 7 is attached to the.

By the way, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the mounting structure of the drip molding 7 includes a molding body 8 made of hard synthetic resin, and a bright film or stainless steel covering the outside surface of the molding body 8. On the other hand, a groove-shaped recess 10 is formed in the lower half of the back surface 8a of the molding main body 8, and a groove-shaped recess 10 is formed on the opening edge side of each of the upper and lower wall surfaces facing each other. Forming recesses 11 and 12, these upper and lower engaging recesses 1
1 and 12 are connected to the locking convex portion 14 near the molded corner of the outside flange 13 of the drip channel 6 and the upper edge 1
3a, as shown in FIG.
5, the drip molding 7 is attached to the drip channel 6 by tapping the drip molding 7 using the elasticity of the thin wall part 16 at the back of the groove-shaped recess 10 of the molding body. The roof side portion of the drip channel 6 is joined to the upper side portion of the roof side rail outer 17, and the roof panel 1 is attached to the top surface of the bottom wall 6a of the drip channel 6.
The side portions of the drip channel 8 are joined together, and this joint portion and the vehicle outer flange 13 of the drip channel 6 form a drip portion 19. Incidentally, reference numeral 20 is an elastic lip joined to the upper back of the drip molding 7.

In addition, the drip molding 7A shown in FIG. 7 is connected to a rear drip molding 21 attached to the roof side portion 4 side of the drip channel 6, and to the front side of this rear drip molding 21 to form a drip channel. 6, and a front side drip molding 22 attached to the front pillar 5 side.

On the other hand, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 55-68565, in order to compensate for the difficulty in attaching a metallic drip mold due to its excessively strong elasticity, the upper engagement recess of the drip mold is There is also a continuous outer wall part that extends above the drip part from the outside of the vehicle to the inside of the vehicle and allows upward displacement of the upper engaged recess.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the mounting structure shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, as shown in FIG. is applied to the lower edge of the engaging convex portion 14 of the drip channel 6, and a portion near the upper side of the engaged recess 11 on the upper side of the back surface 8a of the drip molding 7 is applied to the outer side of the upper edge 13a of the outer side flange 13. The trim skin 9 near the upper part of the thin walled part 16 of the drip molding 7 is hit with a rubber hammer 15 to attach it.
The coating film (not shown in the figure a) is easily scratched and damaged by the molding main body 8, and if this scratch is received, there is a risk that rust will develop from that part at an early stage. Therefore, it is conceivable to reduce the rigidity of the entire molding body 8 and soften the elasticity at the time of engagement to prevent the early abrasions. A flange 13 on the outside of the vehicle by joining the drip channel 6 to the roof side portion 4 and the front pillar 5
It becomes easy to pick up joint distortion that waves back and forth, which not only causes undulations in the mounting position of the drip molding 7 and makes it look bad, but also weakens the supporting force of the drip molding 7 attached to the drip channel 6, which reduces the ram pressure during running. It is difficult to adopt it suddenly because there is a risk of it falling off due to vibration or vibration, and it lacks safety.

In addition, in the case of FIG. 7 described above, the drip part 19 of the drip channel 6 is connected to the upper edge of the vehicle outer flange 13 in the gap created by the butting of the continuous part 23 of the rear drip molding 21 and the front drip molding 22. Water that has climbed over 13a enters the front door 1 through the gap.
When the door is opened, it may drip onto the inside of the vehicle.

On the other hand, in the above-mentioned Utility Model Publication No. 55-68656, the outer wall portion allows upward displacement of the upper engaging recess of the drip mold, so the supporting force of the drip mold is weak. This causes the same inconvenience as mentioned above.

Therefore, the present invention focuses on the above-mentioned problems,
The workability of attaching the drip molding to the drip channel and the supporting force of the drip molding to the drip channel are not affected.
To provide a mounting structure for a drip molding for a vehicle, which can protect the paint film of a drip channel when mounting the drip molding, and improve the sense of quality by improving the mounting posture of the drip molding.

Means for Solving the Problems In the present invention, a groove-like recess is formed on the back surface of the drip mold, and has a substantially U-shaped cross section and extends in the longitudinal direction of the drip mold. Upper and lower engaging recesses are formed on the opening edge side. The upper and lower engaging concave portions of the drip molding are connected to the locking convex portion near the molded corner of the vehicle exterior flange of the drip channel disposed around the periphery of the vehicle body opening and the upper edge of the vehicle exterior flange. The drip molding is attached to the drip channel by utilizing the elasticity of the thin wall portion at the back of the groove-shaped recess. Then, one half of the soft elastic member is adhered to the back surface above the engaged recess above the drip mold, and the other half of the soft elastic member is bent to the inside of the groove-shaped recess of the drip mold. While the other half of the soft elastic member covers the upper engaged recess, the drip molding has a required amount of space between the upper engaged recess and the upper edge of the drip channel to which it is engaged. A clearance is set along the outside flange of the vehicle, and the other half of the soft elastic member is inserted in the clearance in a compressed state.

Function To attach the drip mold to the drip mold, place the engaged recess on the lower side of the drip mold against the locking convex part of the drip channel, then hit the drip mold with a rubber hammer to attach the engaged recess on the upper side of the drip mold. Attach to the upper edge of the petit yannelle. In this case, the bent portion, which is the connecting corner between one half of the soft elastic member and the other half, remains sandwiched between the projecting edge of the engaged recess on the upper side of the drip mold and the upper edge of the drip channel. The drip molding does not come into direct contact with the coating of the drip channel. Moreover, the projecting edge of the engaged concave portion on the upper side of the drip molding can easily overcome the upper edge of the drip channel due to the elasticity of the thin part of the drip molding while compressing the bent part of the soft elastic member with a small striking force of the rubber hammer. Thereafter, the engaged concave portion on the upper side of the drip mold engages with the upper edge of the drip channel while compressing the other half of the soft elastic member within the clearance due to the resilience of the thin portion of the drip mold. When the engaged recess on the upper side of this drip molding engages with the upper edge of the drip channel, the other half of the soft elastic member has a
In addition to the compressive force, an inward tensile force acts, but one half of the soft elastic member is bonded to the drip molding, and the other half of the soft elastic member is bent from the other half. The bent portion and one half of the soft elastic member bear the tensile force acting on the other half, so that the soft elastic member does not shift.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, in which the same parts as the conventional structure are denoted by the same reference numerals.

As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the drip molding 7B
The molding body 8 includes a molding body 8 made of hard synthetic resin, and a trim skin 9 made of, for example, bright film or stainless steel, which covers the outside surface of the molding body 8. Further, on the back surface of the drip molding 7B, specifically, in the lower half of the back surface 8a of the molding main body 8, a groove-shaped recess 10 is formed which has a substantially U-shaped cross section and extends in the longitudinal direction of the drip molding 7B. Upper and lower engaging recesses 11A and 12 are formed at the opening side edges of the upper and lower wall surfaces of the groove-shaped recess 10 that face each other. These upper and lower engaged recesses 11A and 12 are arranged in a drip channel 6 that is disposed from the rear end of the roof side part 4 around the opening 3 formed in the side part of the vehicle body to the waist part of the front pillar 5. A groove-shaped recess of the drip molding 7B is formed on the locking convex portion 14 formed on the back surface near the molded corner of the outside flange 13, and on the upper edge 13a formed by folding back the panel of the outside flange 13 to form a double structure. 10 Thin wall part 16 on the back
The drip molding 7B is attached to the drip channel 6 by using the elasticity of the drip molding 7B. In addition, the drip molding 7
As shown in FIG.
A required clearance δ communicating between the outside of the vehicle No. 3 and the drip portion 19 is set along the outside flange 13 of the vehicle. This clearance δ is compressed by the cooperation of the upper edge 13a that sets the clearance δ and the upper engaged recess 11A, and the upper edge 1
A soft elastic member 24, such as urethane foam, is interposed in close contact with 3a and the upper engaged recess 11A. One half 24 of this soft elastic member 24
a is the drip molding 7B as shown in FIG.
Before being attached to the drip channel 6, it is adhered to the back surface 8a above the engaged recess 11A on the upper side of the molding body 8. The other half 24b of this soft elastic member 24 is the drip molding 7B.
The groove-shaped recess 10 is bent inward to cover the upper engaged recess 11A.

According to the above embodiment structure, the drip molding 7
The inner part of the lower opening edge 10a of the groove-shaped recess 10 of B is applied to the lower edge of the locking convex part 14 of the drip channel 6, and the engaged recess 11A on the upper side of the back surface 8a of the drip molding 7B is applied. The adjacent portion is pressed against the vehicle outer side of the upper edge 13a of the vehicle outer flange 13, and the drip molding 7B is hit with the rubber hammer 15 to engage the lower engaged concave portion 12 with the locking convex portion 14, and the upper engaged The mating recess 11A is engaged with the upper edge 13a. In this case, while the bent portion of the soft elastic member 24 is sandwiched between the projecting edge 25 of the upper engaged recess 11A of the drip molding 7B and the upper edge 13a of the drip channel 6, the drip molding 7B Drip channel 6
The projecting edge 25 between the upper engaged recess 11A and the back surface 8a does not directly contact the coating film of the upper edge 1.
3a can be easily overcome by a small striking force of the rubber hammer 15 due to the elasticity of the thin wall portion 16 at the back of the groove-shaped recess 10. Thereafter, the upper engaged recess 11A of the drip molding 7B engages the other half 24b of the soft elastic member 24 in cooperation with the upper edge 13a of the drip channel 6 due to the resilience of the thin wall portion 16 of the drip molding 7B. While compressing the soft elastic member 24 within the clearance δ, the other half 24b of the soft elastic member 24 is brought into close contact with the upper engaged recess 11A and the upper edge 13a, thereby forming the drip channel without damaging the coating film (not shown). 6 is engaged with the upper edge 13a.

On the other hand, after the drip molding 7B is attached to the drip channel 6, the drip part 19
The water that tries to enter the outside side of the drip channel 6 through the space between the upper edge 13a of the outside flange 13 and the upper engaged recess 11A is caused by the upper edge 13a and the soft elastic member. It is blocked by the close contact surface with 24.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the drip molding 7
The explanation has been given by exemplifying a case in which the drip molding B is continuous from the rear end of the roof side part 4 to the waist part of the front pillar 5, but it is also possible to divide the drip molding into a plurality of parts that are connected back and forth along the drip channel 6. In this case, by arranging a single soft elastic member 24 across both ends of the connecting portion of each dividing element, water can flow from the drip portion 19 of the connecting portion over the upper edge 13a of the vehicle outer flange 13. The soft elastic member 2 that is in close contact with the upper edge 13a
4 can prevent water from entering the gap between the joints.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, a groove-shaped concave portion having a substantially U-shaped cross section and extending in the longitudinal direction of the drip mold is formed on the back side of the drip mold, and the opening edge side of each of the upper and lower wall surfaces of the groove-shaped concave portion facing each other is formed on the back side of the drip mold. A vertical engaging recess is formed in the upper and lower engaging recesses, and the upper and lower engaging recesses are connected to a locking convex portion near the molded corner of the vehicle exterior flange of the drip channel disposed on the periphery of the vehicle body opening and Since the drip molding is attached to the upper edge by utilizing the elasticity of the thin wall portion at the back of the groove-shaped recess of the drip molding, the drip molding can be attached to the drip channel with a small force, and the workability of installing the drip molding is improved. . Moreover, one half of the soft elastic member is bonded to the back surface above the engaged recess on the upper side of the drip mold, and the other half of the soft elastic member is bent toward the inside of the groove-shaped recess of the drip mold. Since the other half of this soft elastic member covers the upper engaged recess, the upper engaged recess of the drip molding can be applied while the lower engaged recess of the drip molding is applied to the locking protrusion of the drip channel. When the engaged recess is attached to the upper edge of the drip channel, the soft elastic member is bent between the projecting edge of the engaged recess above the drip molding and the upper edge of the drip channel. Since the parts are pinched together and the drip molding does not come into direct contact with the paint film of the drip channel, the paint film of the drip channel will not be scratched. Furthermore, when the engaged recess on the upper side of the drip mold engages the upper edge of the drip channel while compressing the other half of the soft elastic member within the clearance, the inner side acting on the other half of the soft elastic member Since the tensile force is borne by the bent portion and one half of the soft elastic member, there is an advantage that the other half of the soft elastic member can be reliably placed within the clearance without shifting. Therefore, it is possible to protect the paint film of the drip channel with a soft elastic member without causing any problems with the workability of attaching the drip molding to the drip channel and the supporting force of the drip molding to attach to the drip channel. Not only can the drip molding be attached to the drip channel by using the drip channel, but even if there is a wavy bonding strain on the outside flange of the drip channel, the waving on the outside flange can be absorbed by the difference in the compression amount of the soft elastic member. Therefore, the installation posture of the drip molding can be made to be good without waving, and the sense of quality can be improved.
