Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the deflection of the upper wall of a quarter window lower trim through thermal deformation. CONSTITUTION:When a trim 1 is installed in a car body by intruding the lower ends of the front and rear arms 3 and 4 of a quarter window upper trim 1 to the inside of a quarter window lower trim 2, tongue pieces 5 and 5 are extended in the opposite direction from the lower ends of both the arms 3 and 4, and the upper wall 7 of the quarter window lower trim 2 is supported by the tongue pieces 5 and 5.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a quarter wind trim mounting structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the vehicle shown in FIG. 8, a quarter window upper trim (hereinafter referred to as upper trim) b and a quarter wind lower trim (hereinafter referred to as lower trim) c are attached around a quarter window a (see FIG. 6). ). Upper trim b is front and rear arms b1
, B2, the lower end of which is embedded inside the lower trim c.

[0003]

However, this mounting structure has a problem that the upper wall c1 of the lower trim c is bent by thermal deformation as shown by the chain double-dashed line in FIG. The present invention, in view of such circumstances,
An object of the present invention is to provide a mounting structure for a quarter wind trim that can prevent thermal deformation of the lower trim.

[0004]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is achieved when the lower ends of the front and rear arms of a quarter window upper trim are slid into the inside of the quarter wind door trim to attach the trim to the vehicle body. A tongue piece extends from the lower ends of the both arms in opposite directions, and the tongue pieces support the upper wall of the quarter winder trim.

[0005]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In FIG. 1, 1 is an upper trim and 2 is a lower trim. The upper trim 1 extends tongue pieces 5 and 5 in opposite directions from the lower ends of the front and rear arms 3 and 4, and has notches 6 and 6 at the lower ends of the arms 3 and 4 adjacent to the tongue pieces 5 and 5. Is provided. On the other hand, lower trim 2
Notches 8, 8 for engaging the upper trim arm are formed at both front and rear ends of the upper wall 7, and these notches 8,
Protrusions 9 and 9 are extended from the edge of 8 to the front and back. Then, the arms 3 and 4 of the upper trim 1 are inserted into the notches 8 and 8 of the lower trim 2 so that the upper surfaces of the tongue pieces 5 and 5 are brought into contact with the lower surface of the lower trim upper wall 7, and the projections 9 and 9 of the lower trim 2 are inserted. Is engaged with the notches 6 and 6 of the upper trim 1 to integrate them, and then attached to the vehicle body with a clip or the like.

Since this embodiment is constructed in this way,
The upper wall 7 of the lower trim 2 is supported by the tongue piece 5 of the upper trim 1, so that the upper trim 1 does not bend due to thermal deformation. Further, since the projection 9 of the lower trim 2 is engaged with the notch 8 of the upper trim 1, the displacement of the upper and lower trims 1 and 2 can be prevented. In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, a locking portion 10 may be provided at the tip of the projection 9 of the lower trim 2. In this way, the locking portion 10 engages with the edge of the notch 8 of the upper trim 1, and no gap is formed between the edge of the notch 8 of the lower trim 2 and the surface of the upper trim 1.

[0007]

According to the present invention, the upper wall 7 of the lower trim 2 is
Is supported by the tongue piece 5 of the upper trim 1, and bending due to thermal deformation does not occur.
