Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a mounting structure for fixing a flat plate portion of a weather strip, for example, a flat plate-shaped end portion to a body panel or a door panel of a vehicle with a clip.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 The ends of extrusion weatherstrips that are installed along the edges of automobile door panels and vehicle body door openings are formed with molds, and the ends are formed by clipping into door panels and body panels. Fixed.

Taking an automobile door as an example, a weather strip 2 is attached to the periphery of a door panel 1 as shown in FIG. The weather strip 2 is made of rubber, and mold-molded terminal portions 2B are formed at both ends of the extruded material 2A around the door panel 1. FIG. 4 shows the terminal portion 2B (front surface side). The terminal portion 2B is formed in a flat plate shape having a surface along the surface of the door panel 1 (FIG. 3) to which the terminal portion 2B is attached. Fixed.

FIG. 5 shows this fixing part, in which an insert 3 made of a metal plate is embedded in the terminal part 2 B, and a clip hole 21 is formed so as to penetrate a hole 31 provided in the insert 3 and is clipped. 4 is attached to the door panel with this clip 4. However, in this mounting structure, the head portion 41 of the clip 4 appears on the surface of the terminal portion 2B, so that it does not look good.

Further, as a mounting structure in which the clip 4 is not exposed, a double structure in which a part of the periphery of the terminal portion 2B is divided into upper and lower parts as shown in FIG. 6 is fixed to the door panel with the clip 4 by the lower wall 22. However, there is one in which the head 41 of the clip 4 is covered by the upper wall 23. However, in this mounting structure, there is a mouth opening at the side edge and it does not look good, and when the clip 4 is attached to the lower wall 22, the upper wall 23 must be opened upward as shown by the broken line. , Installation workability is not good.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In view of such circumstances, the present invention provides a weather strip mounting structure in which the clip does not appear in the appearance, the side edge of the mounting portion does not open, and the appearance is good and the mounting workability is also good. It was done as an issue.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, has a concave portion deeper than the thickness of the head portion 41 into which the head portion 41 of the clip 4 can be fitted, on the back surface of the flat plate portion 2B of the weather strip 2, for example, the end portion. The recess 24 is formed, and the recess 24 is laterally extended from the recess 24 in the flat plate portion 2B to form a space 25 into which the head 41 of the clip 4 can be inserted from the recess 24 side. At the same time, a groove 26 for guiding the shaft portion 42 of the clip 4 when the head portion 41 of the clip 4 is fitted into the gap 25 in the wall 26 on the back surface side of the flat plate portion 2B separated by the gap 25 in the thickness direction. 27 is formed, the clip 4 is moved laterally from the recess 24 and assembled in the gap 25, and the shaft portion 42 of the clip 4 is pushed into the clip hole 11 of the panel 1 of the door or body of the automobile. It has a weatherstrip mounting structure.

[0008]

【Example】

 1 and 2 show an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, a terminal portion 2B of the flat strip portion, which is a flat plate portion, is formed at the end of the tubular extruded material 2A of the weather strip 2. As shown in FIG. 3, the weather strip 2 has its extruded material 2A attached to the peripheral edge of the door panel 1, and its terminal portion 2B fixed to the front and rear ends of the door panel 1 with clips.

As shown in FIG. 1, the terminal portion 2B has plate-shaped mounting portions 20, 20 'on both sides. An insert is embedded in each of the mounting portions 20 and 20 '. The mounting portion 20 ′ is covered with a trim plate (not shown) mounted on the inner surface of the door panel 1.

FIGS. 2A and 2B show a fixing portion of the mounting portion 20 to the door panel 1, and FIG. 2C shows a state in which the fixing portion is fixed to the door panel 1 with a clip 4. It is a thing.

The plate-shaped metal insert 3 embedded in the mounting portion 20 is provided with an oval hole 31 having a projecting portion 32 protruding like a neck toward the edge at a position close to the edge. Then, on the back surface of the mounting portion 20, a recess 24 penetrating the hole 31 is formed at a position concentric with the hole 31 of the insert 3. The recess 24 is wider than the head 41 of the clip 4 and deeper than the thickness of the head 41.

In addition, the mounting portion 20 is formed with a space 25 that extends laterally so as to extend the bottom surface of the recess 24. The gap 25 is located closer to the surface of the mounting portion 20 than the insert 3, the width thereof is substantially the same as that of the recess 24, and the gap width is substantially the same as the thickness of the head 41 of the clip 4. The mounting portion 20 is partitioned laterally of the recess 24 by the gap 25 and the insert 3 in the thickness direction, and the wall 26 on the rear surface side extends in the direction from the gap 25 to the protrusion 32 of the insert 3. A groove 27 is provided therethrough. The width of the groove 27 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the shaft portion 42 of the clip 4, and the end of the groove 27 is slightly wider than the diameter of the shaft portion 42.

In order to fix the terminal portion 2B of the weather strip 2 to the door panel 1, the head portion 41 of the clip 4 is fitted into the recess 24 of the flat plate portion 20 from the back surface side, and the clip 4 is attached to the shaft portion thereof. 42 is pushed into the groove 27, the head 41 is inserted into the gap 25 and moved laterally, and the clip 4 is attached to the flat plate portion 20 at the position shown in FIG. Then, the shaft portion 42 of the clip 4 protruding from the back surface of the flat plate portion 20 is pushed into the clip hole 11 of the door panel 1 by pressing the end portion of the flat plate portion 20 from above. Thereby, the flat plate portion 20 is fixed to the door panel 1.

Since the mounting portion 20 ′ is covered with the trim plate of the door after mounting, it is not necessary to improve the appearance, and thus the mounting portion 20 ′ is clipped by the ordinary clip hole 21 as shown in FIG. ..

[0015]

[Effect of the device]

 According to the mounting structure of the weather strip of the present invention, the clip is pre-assembled on the flat plate portion of the weather strip, and the flat plate portion is easily pressed from above to the panel to which the flat plate portion is to be attached to facilitate the workability. Can be fixed. Also, the clip does not appear on the outside, and there are no openings on the periphery of the flat plate that appear on the outside, so the weather strip attachment part looks good. The present invention can also be applied to the case where the weather strip is clipped on the flat plate portion other than the terminal portion.
