バーで穴を塞ぐ必要がある。<Prior Art> When a car body panel is dipped in lacquer paint or the like and painted, holes are cut in the panel to cut off excess paint. When the body panel is dipped in paint and pulled up, and when the excess paint has run out of the holes and broke, spray the body panel primer at high pressure, spray the protective film paint after the primer has dried, then put it in a heating oven and apply it. Bake the layers at high temperature. If there is a hole in the body panel, dust and dirt will get into the car through the hole, so it is necessary to cover the hole with a cover to prevent it.

より公知である。As a cover for closing the hole, pull up the body panel from the paint, and if excess paint runs off the hole and breaks, attach it to the body panel to close the hole and heat the body panel to burn the coating layer. It is known from Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 49-13827 that the product is finally fixed to a body panel by a hot-melting adhesive that melts at a high temperature in a furnace when placed in an oven.

下面に別の接着剤で固定して構成されている。The known hole closing cover is an annular or circular flat plate that contacts the peripheral portion of the hole, and a plurality of plates that hang down from the lower surface of the flat plate and project into the inner circumference of the hole and engage with the inner circumference. Claw-shaped or cylindrical mounting part is integrally molded with a heat-melting adhesive, and its annular or circular flat plate is fixed to the lower surface of a metal disk with a diameter larger than the hole with another adhesive. Has been done.

属円板でパネルの穴を塞ぐのである。Then, pull up the body panel from the paint, and if the excess paint flows down from the hole and breaks, a plurality of nail-shaped or tubular mounting parts made of hot-melt adhesive that hang down from the flat plate on the bottom surface of the metal disk are made into holes. Insert the cover to the body panel until the coating layer is baked and close the hole, and put the body panel in the heating furnace to burn the coating layer. The heat-melting adhesive that composes is melted and the metal disk on the flat plate is bonded onto the peripheral edge of the hole of the body panel, and the hole of the panel is closed with the metal disk.

なる。<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> In order to close the hole with the metal disk, the heat-melting adhesive only has to bond the lower surface of the peripheral edge of the metal disk and the peripheral edge of the hole of the body panel. The cover is also formed of a plurality of downwardly facing claw-shaped or cylindrical attachment parts for pressing into the inner circumference of the hole with a hot-melt adhesive. This is because it is necessary to attach the cover to the hole after the excess paint is cut off, put the body panel in the heating furnace, and position the cover until the coating layer is baked, and at the same time, with the metal disc. It takes a lot of pressing steps to integrally form such a mounting portion with a metal plate, which is extremely troublesome, but it is because the mounting portion can be easily molded with a hot-melt adhesive. However, due to the high heat in the heating furnace, the hot-melt adhesive that constitutes the mounting portion melts and flows down from the holes, which does not contribute to the adhesion of the metal discs and is therefore wasted.

けた熱融解接着剤の一部は穴の内周を伝って流れ落ち、
接着剤の量が少なくなって接着力が低下する。Further, since the above-mentioned known cover has no means for preventing the melted heat-melting adhesive from flowing into the inner circumference of the hole of the body panel, the lower surface of the peripheral edge portion of the metal disk and the peripheral edge portion of the hole are separated. Part of the hot-melt adhesive that melted between the parts flowed down along the inner circumference of the hole,
The adhesive amount is reduced and the adhesive strength is reduced.

こともある。Further, the mounting portion made of a heat-melting adhesive fitted on the inner circumference of the hole melts and deforms due to the high heat in the heating furnace and bonds the metal disk to the peripheral portion of the hole, so depending on the method of deformation. The metal disc may move and be bonded without completely closing the hole.
又、熱融解接着剤は高価であって、この高価な熱融解接
着剤で接着に寄与しない取付部までも成形するので公知

の外縁を覆い、シール効果をより確実にする。When the body panel having the cover member mounted in the hole in this way is then placed in a heating furnace to bake the paint, the adhesive ring 21 made of the heat-melting adhesive is heated by the heating at that time, and the adhesive ring 21 is formed on the lower surface 15 of the tapered collar 14. And the upper side of the peripheral edge of the hole in the body panel. The arcuate rim 16 and the spring leg 11 are fitted to the inner circumference of the hole to prevent the melted adhesive from falling into the hole. Further, since the outer edge of the tapered flange 14 elastically restrains the adhesive ring 21, the adhesive melted under the lower surface of the tapered flange is prevented from leaking out of the flange. As a result, it is possible to prevent the amount of the adhesive from decreasing, the cover member is bonded to the body panel with a required amount of the adhesive, and the hole can be reliably closed with the circular plate 10. That is, the circular plate 10 includes the spring side 11 and the rim 16 which are engaged with the inner circumference of the hole.
Since it is held by, the hot-melt adhesive does not move even if it melts, and the hole is reliably closed. Since the cover member A is formed of high temperature resistant plastic, it can withstand the high temperature of the heating furnace. Then, the taper collar 1 of the adhesive ring 21
The hot-melt adhesive located outside the outer periphery of 4 melts and the collar 14
Covers the outer edge of the to make the sealing effect more reliable.

に入れる前の假の取付け状態のときも、熱融解接着剤が
溶けた接着状態のときもカバー部材の円形プレートは穴
に対して正確に位置決めされる。Since the cover member is attached to the body panel by fitting the arc-shaped rim and the outer circumference of the spring leg to the inner circumference of the hole in the panel, the hot-melt adhesive melts even in the mounting state before putting it in the heating furnace. Even in the bonded state, the circular plate of the cover member is accurately positioned with respect to the hole.

バネ脚を穴に押込めば弧状リムも自然に穴に嵌合し、弧
状リムを穴に容易に嵌合できる。And it is difficult to fit the arc-shaped rim that fits in the hole of the panel into the hole by hand, but since there is a spring leg in the interval of the arc-shaped rim that is downwardly longer than the arc-shaped rim, this spring leg The arc-shaped rim can be naturally fitted into the hole by pushing into the hole, and the arc-shaped rim can be easily fitted into the hole.

バーをパネルに確実に接着することができる。When the adhesive ring melts and bonds in the baking process of the coating layer, the melted hot-melt adhesive flows into the hole of the panel and leaks, so that the arc-shaped rim fitted to the inner circumference of the hole and the spring leg are To prevent. Further, the outer edge of the tapered collar prevents the melted adhesive from leaking out of the collar. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the amount of the adhesive melted under the tapered brim, and it is possible to reliably adhere the cover to the panel with the necessary amount of the adhesive.
又、円形プレートは穴の内周に係合したバネ脚と弧状リ
ムにより保持されているので接着剤が融けてもずれ動か
ず、接着後もカバーとパネルの結合を守る。Further, since the circular plate is held by the spring leg engaged with the inner circumference of the hole and the arc-shaped rim, it does not move even if the adhesive melts, and the bond between the cover and the panel is protected even after the bonding.

る。And, the expensive heat-melting adhesive is used to mold only the thin annular flat plate adhesive ring, and the amount used is very small, so the cost is low, and the circular plate is used in the entire amount at the peripheral edge of the hole. There is no waste because it is glued on top. In short, the adhesive ring can be molded with the minimum necessary amount of hot-melt adhesive. Further, the cover member can be mass-produced by injection molding of high temperature resistant plastic, and the hole closing cover can be provided at a low cost because the amount of the heat-melting adhesive used is small.
