Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to an arrangement structure for an assist grip for opening and closing a door, which is disposed on a door panel that is attached to a vehicle body so as to be openable and closable.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 58-89459, a seatbelt retractor to which the base end of the seatbelt is connected and a seatbelt guide through which the seatbelt is inserted and supported are fixed to the vehicle body. There is something set up. In this structure, the seatbelt is locked by the seatbelt retractor in the event of a collision, and the occupant is restrained in the seat. At this time, an input load that pulls the seat belt retractor along the seat belt installation direction acts on the seat belt retractor. In addition, the seat belt guide has
Since the seat belt is inserted and supported, a reaction force of the tensile load of the seat belt retractor acts.
In other words, a compressive load will act between the seatbelt retractor fixed part and the seatbelt guide fixed part of the vehicle body, and the compressive load will deform the vehicle body in the above part, causing the seatbelt retractor to become attached to the vehicle body. It is required to ensure sufficient rigidity to prevent movement in the direction of compression deformation.

(Purpose of the invention) This proposal uses an assist grip for opening and closing the door that is attached to the door panel when the seat belt retractor and seat belt guide are fixed to the door panel, and has a simple configuration. The purpose is to ensure sufficient rigidity between the seatbelt guide fixing section and the seatbelt guide fixing section.

(Structure of the invention) In this invention, a seatbelt retractor to which the base end of the seatbelt is connected, and a seatbelt guide through which the seatbelt is inserted and supported are fixed to a door panel that is attached to the vehicle body so as to be openable and closable. An assist grip for opening and closing the door is disposed between the seat belt retractor and the seat belt guide of the door panel, with one end of an assist grip for opening and closing the door being attached near the seat belt retractor and the other end being attached near the seat belt guide. It is characterized by being

(Effect of the invention) Since the present invention is constructed as described above, in the event of a collision,
The assist grip for opening and closing the door acts as a reinforcing member between the fixed parts of the two members of the door panel against the compressive load in the seat belt installation direction that acts on the seat belt retractor fixed part and the seat belt guide fixed part as input parts. Therefore, sufficient rigidity of this portion of the door panel can be ensured.

(Example) An example of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view showing the arrangement structure of the assist grip according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a front view of the rear door, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. 2.

As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the seat belt device 2 of the front seat 1 of the vehicle has a general ELR type three-point support structure, and the seat belt retractor of this seat belt device 2 is 3 is housed inside the rear door 4 as described later. The seat belt 5 wound around the retractor 3 is pulled out into the vehicle interior through the outlet 7 formed in the door trim 6 of the rear door 4, and is inserted into the first belt guide 1a provided on the shoulder of the front seat 1. , the tongue 9 provided at the tip thereof is a latch 1 provided on the side of the front seat 1 on the center side of the vehicle body.
The lap seat belt 5a is detachably fitted and attached to the seat belt 5, and the end portion 5b of the lap seat belt 5a branched from the middle of the seat belt 5 is fixed to the floor 8 or the like on the outside of the vehicle body on the side of the front seat 1. As a result, the occupant seated in the front seat 1 is supported and fixed at three points, thereby effectively supporting and protecting the occupant.

By the way, the rear door 4 is a door hinge (not shown)
It is attached to the vehicle body so that it can be opened and closed. The rear door is formed by joining an inner panel 4a and an outer panel 4b. A window glass 11 is inserted into the upper end of the rear door 4 so as to be slidable in the vertical direction. An opening groove 4c is formed. The retractor 3 of the seat belt 5 is located slightly forward of the center of the rear door 4 and is attached below the inner panel 4a of the rear door 4. Further, the outlet 7 for pulling out the seat belt 5, which is always wound around the retractor 3 with a constant tension, into the vehicle interior is formed in the shape of a long hole inclined rearward. A second belt guide 12 made of a rigid member and into which the seat belt 5 is inserted and supported is disposed at a position corresponding to the outlet 7 on the outside of the door trim 6. The second belt guide 12 is connected to the inner panel 4
a, and is connected to the inner surface of the inner panel 4.
A reinforcement 13 extending in the front-rear direction is fixed to the outer surface of the connecting portion of the second belt guide 12 in a, thereby forming a closed cross section. 14 is an assist grip for opening and closing the rear door 4 formed in a substantially convex shape, and is connected to the retractor 3 and the second belt guide 12.
Seat belt 5 is disposed in the vertical direction between the seat belt 5 and the seat belt 5, and is disposed substantially in the vertical direction along the disposing direction. Here, the substantially convex assist grip 14 is constructed so as to straddle the inside of the seat belt 5, and its upper end is connected to the second grip.
Inner panel 4a and reinforcement 1 near belt guide 12 and in front of seat belt 5
3, and its lower end is connected to the inner panel 4a near the retractor 3 and behind the seat belt 5.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained. At the time of a collision, the occupant in the front seat 1 has an inertia force P in the forward direction. At this time, the seatbelt 5 is locked by the retractor 3 to restrain the occupant in the seat 1, so the seatbelt 5 has a forward inertial force P.
acts. This input load causes retractor 3
An input load that pulls the retractor 3 forward in the direction in which the seat belt 5 is disposed acts on the retractor 3 . Further, a reaction force in the opposite direction of the input load acting on the retractor 3 acts on the second belt guide 12 . As a result, a compressive load acts between the retractor 3 fixed part and the second belt guide 12 fixed part of the inner panel 4a, but one end of the assist grip 14 is near the retractor 3 and the other end is near the second belt guide 12.
Since it is attached to the belt guide 12, sufficient rigidity of the inner panel 4a can be ensured against the above-mentioned compressive load. Further, the substantially convex assist grip 14 is installed across the inside of the seat belt 5, and its both ends are connected to the retractor 3, which is a load input part, and the second belt guide 12 in the vicinity of the second belt guide 12 in a rearwardly inclined state. Therefore, the inner panel 4a can be effectively applied against the compressive load without interfering with the sliding movement of the seat belt 5 and while satisfying the operability of the assist grip 14 for the passenger in the rear seat (not shown).
The rigidity can be ensured. Furthermore, since the upper end of the assist grip 14 is connected to the closed section formed by the reinforcement 13 and the inner panel 4a, the compressive load is dispersed through the closed section.
To more effectively ensure the rigidity of an inner panel 4a.
