Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <<Industrial application>> This invention is designed to release the air inside the vehicle to the outside when closing the back door or trunk lid, thereby facilitating the closing operation of the back door or trunk lid. Regarding the ventilation structure of the luggage compartment.

《Prior art》 Conventionally, in hatchback vehicles, etc., when closing the back door, the air pressure in the luggage compartment and the passenger compartment
To prevent the back door from closing smoothly, a ventilation structure is used to release air from inside the luggage compartment to the outside. Similarly, a similar ventilation structure is adopted inside the trunk so that there is no problem in opening and closing the trunk lid.

An example of a conventional ventilation structure is shown in FIGS. 9 and 10. An air outlet made of a resin molded body is attached to the luggage trim 2 or luggage trim 3 attached and fixed to the peripheral wall of the luggage compartment 1. 4
The air in the luggage compartment 1 passes through this air outlet 4, passes through the gap 7 between the luggage trims 3, 4 and the inner panel 5, and is released to the outside of the vehicle from an air drafter 8 set on a bumper or the like. A ventilation structure was adopted.

<<Problem to be solved by the invention>> In the conventional ventilation structure described above, nonwoven fabric or the like is normally used as the skin material in order to attach the air outlet 4 made of a resin molded body to the luggage trims 2 and 3. These luggage trims 2,
It has been pointed out that there is a problem in that the appearance of the air outlet 3 and the air outlet 4 feel unnatural, resulting in a deterioration in appearance.

Furthermore, it has been pointed out that since the air outlet 4 is attached to the luggage trims 2 and 3, the number of installation steps increases, leading to an increase in costs.

In addition, the larger the vehicle is with a larger interior volume, the larger the opening area of the air outlet 4 is required, and the larger the air outlet 4 becomes.
It has also been pointed out that the settings are limited and there are limitations to the design.

This invention eliminates the separate air outlet and provides ventilation openings in the luggage trim itself without compromising the exterior design, thereby reducing costs and improving the appearance of the luggage compartment. Our goal is to provide the following.

<Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above object, the luggage compartment ventilation structure of the present invention includes a ventilation opening at the lower edge of the luggage trim attached and fixed to the peripheral wall of the luggage compartment of the automobile. It is characterized by having been established.

The ventilation opening may be a gap provided between the lower edge of the luggage trim and the floor panel, or may be a gap provided at appropriate intervals along the lower edge of the luggage trim. It's okay if it's hot.

Furthermore, if a bulge is formed above the ventilation opening that bulges toward the inside of the baggage compartment to cover the ventilation opening, the appearance design is further improved.

Further, the ventilation opening may be provided on the lower wall surface of the bulge.

<Operation> According to the ventilation structure of the luggage compartment configured as described above, the ventilation opening is set at a relatively inconspicuous location such as the lower edge of the luggage trim or the lower wall surface of the bulge. Therefore, the conventional separate air outlet can be abolished without any loss in appearance design.

In addition, especially when providing ventilation openings along the lower edge of the luggage trim, the opening area can be set by the outer circumferential dimension along the floor surface, ensuring a large opening area and shortening the air flow path. ventilation efficiency can be improved.

<<Example>> Hereinafter, an example according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an external view of the hatchback vehicle as seen diagonally rearward from the inside of the vehicle. In FIG. A luggage side trim 12 is attached and fixed.

The luggage rear trim 11 and the luggage side trim 12 are made of a two-layer material made of a core material made of a thermoplastic composite resin plate or molded nonwoven fabric, and a skin material made of nonwoven fabric laminated on the surface side of the core material, which is heated and softened. After that, the luggage trims 11 and 12 are formed into the desired shape by coal press molding, and have appropriate shape retention and decorative properties.
4 is installed and fixed.

Further, the luggage rear trim 11 and the luggage side trim 12 have a gap 1 between the lower edges 15, 16 of each luggage trim 11, 12 and the floor panel 17, as shown in FIGS.
8, 19 are set, and this gap 18, 19
constitute ventilation openings 20 and 21.

Therefore, the air in the luggage compartment 10 and the vehicle interior (not shown) passes through the ventilation openings 20 and 21 and from the space 22 between the luggage trims 11 and 12 and the inner panel 14 via the air drafter 23. released outside the vehicle.

Since the above-mentioned air passage is formed, when closing the back door etc., the closing operation can be performed smoothly, and the ventilation openings 20 and 2 can be closed smoothly.
1, the lower edge 15 of each of the luggage rear trim 11 and the luggage side trim 12,
Gaps 18, 19 between 16 and floor panel 17
These ventilation openings 20, 2
1 is not noticeable on the outside, luggage trim 11, 12
It does not impair the appearance and design of the product.

Note that the reference numeral 24 in the figure indicates a molded carpet laid on the surface of the floor panel 17;
Reference numeral 5 indicates a rear plate that supports and fixes the upper end side of the luggage rear trim 11.

Next, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, notches 26 are arranged at appropriate intervals on the lower edge 15 of the luggage rear trim 11.
This notch 26 constitutes the ventilation opening 20, and has the same effect as the above-mentioned embodiment, and furthermore, the lower edge 15 of the luggage rear trim 11 other than the notch 26 is connected to the floor panel 17. Since they are in contact with each other, there is an effect of preventing dirt in the luggage compartment 10 from passing through and preventing the luggage compartment from falling into the gap 18.

Similarly, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, a bent piece 27 is provided by bending the edge of the molded carpet 24 upwards, and this bent piece 27 allows dirt in the luggage compartment 10 to pass through and baggage. Falling into the gap 18 can be prevented.

In this way, since the ventilation openings 20 and 21 are set along the lower edges 15 and 16 of the luggage trims 11 and 12, the opening area can be secured with the outer circumferential dimension of the floor panel 17, and the air flow path can also be secured. Since it is shorter, ventilation efficiency is also improved.

Next, the embodiment shown in FIG. 6 is an improvement of the embodiment shown in FIG. This is an embodiment that further improves the appearance.

Similarly, if the bulge is used, the ventilation opening 20,
21 is the lower edge 15 of the luggage trim 11, 12,
16, and even if ventilation openings 20 and 21 are provided on the lower wall surfaces of the bulges 28 and 29 as shown in FIGS. Ventilation openings 2 in trims 11 and 12
0,21 can be formed.

Although the embodiments described above are of the hatchback type, the present invention may be applied to other types of vehicles that use the trunk as a luggage compartment.

<<Effects of the Invention>> Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

By setting a ventilation opening directly in the luggage trim, the separate air outlet that was previously required can be eliminated, reducing the number of parts and eliminating the need for installation man-hours, resulting in significant cost reductions.

In addition, the air outlet does not give a sense of discomfort to the luggage trim and has a good appearance, and the ventilation opening provided in the luggage trim is formed on the lower edge side of the luggage trim or on the lower wall surface of the bulge. Therefore, it has the effect of being unnoticeable from the outside and having a good appearance design.

Furthermore, if the ventilation opening is set along the lower edge of the luggage door, the opening area can be taken from the outer circumference of the floor panel, so a large opening area is secured, and the air flow path is also short, making ventilation efficient. There is also the advantage of improving
