Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to an improvement of a heater control body mounting device for an automobile.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

For the heater of the car, attach the heater case to the lower center of the instrument panel that is attached to the front of the driver's seat,
Attach the control body with the heater lever attached to the instrument panel, connect the heater lever and the opening and closing door in the heater case with a cable, and operate the heater lever by picking the tip of the heater lever protruding from the instrument panel. I try to control it. Various instruments are installed inside the instrument panel, so the space is small. Therefore, the instrument panel cannot be attached to the vehicle body after the control body is attached to the instrument panel first. For this reason, hooks should be installed on the members that have been passed through the vehicle body in the left-right direction in advance, and the control body should be inserted. In addition, they are screwed together. However, in the process of mounting the instrument panel, the control body may fall off from the hook due to hitting of parts, which causes a problem that the assembly work may be performed again. See, for example, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 61-44699.

[Purpose of device]

The idea is that the control body with the heater lever connected to the heater case by a cable is attached to the heater case temporarily, the instrument panel is attached, and then the control body can be screwed to the instrument panel. It is an object of the invention to obtain a heater control body mounting device for an automobile, which can reduce the working time.

[Constitution of device]

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

The heater lever 1 is rotatably attached to a control body 3 by a support shaft 2. A cable 4 is connected to the inner end of the heater lever 1, and the other end of the cable is connected to an opening / closing door provided on the heater case 5. The heater case 5 is molded using a synthetic resin,
A claw 6 is provided so as to project from the rear surface of the upper part, and a receiving stand 7 is provided below the claw 6. On the other hand, the control body 3 is provided with a hooking hole 8 in a front part thereof, a stay 9 is provided on a lower side of the control body 3 so as to project downward, and screw holes 10 are provided on left and right sides of the rear side. The heater case 5 is attached to the center of the front part of the vehicle compartment, and the upper portion thereof is covered with the instrument panel 11. The instrument panel 11 has a mounting hole 12 and a slit 13. The display plate 14 covers the mounting hole 12. The instrument panel 11 has many other instruments and switches attached thereto, and is attached to the front side of the driver's seat.

[Function of device]

The control body 3 of the heater lever 1 connected to the heater case 5 with the cable 4 is mounted on the vehicle body part of the instrument panel 11 below the center of the instrument panel 11, and the control body 3 is locked as shown in FIG. The holes 8 are hooked on the claws 6 of the heater case 5, and the stay 9 is placed on the receiving table 7 and stabilized. In this state, as shown in FIG. 3, the instrument panel 11 is covered so as to cover the upper part of the heater case 5, and the instrument panel 11 is fastened to the vehicle body. After doing so, screw holes 10 of control body 3 into instrument panel 11
Align with the mounting hole 12 of and tighten with screws. At this time, the retaining hole 8 is still retained on the claw 6, and the stay 9 is dependent on the position relative to the instrument panel 11 and the cradle 7
It may float from. A knob is attached to a portion of the heater lever 1 which is projected from the instrument panel 11. Then, the heater lever 1 is rotated laterally to control.

[Effect of device]

As described above, the present invention is one in which the heater case is attached to the lower center of the instrument panel attached to the front side of the driver's seat. The control body with the heater lever is provided with a hook hole at the front, and a stay projecting downward is provided on the rear side of the control body. Since the control body is attached by screwing on the instrument panel, the control body is screwed to the instrument panel, so while installing the instrument panel, place the stay on the pedestal by hooking the control body with the hook holes. Can be kept stable. For this reason, there is no failure in assembly, and the procedure can be assembled well,
Work man-hours can be reduced and work time can be shortened.
