Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a component mounting apparatus capable of easily and securely mounting necessary components by a clip system.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, when a necessary part is mounted in a car by a clip method, it has an advantage that it can be easily mounted by pushing the mounting member against a mounting partner member.

[0003]

However, as described above, those which can be easily attached are generally easily detached. On the other hand, there are those that are hard to come off, but this is generally difficult to attach.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a component mounting device which is easy to mount and which does not easily come off.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, in the component mounting apparatus of the present invention, the mounting mating member has a flared sloped portion on the outer side, and the mounting member is mounted. A flexible arm portion which is provided at a base portion of the component and extends outwardly from the base portion, and a flexible arm portion which is provided in front of the arm portion and inward of the tip of the arm portion. A corner portion and a sloped portion that is formed in a divergent shape ahead of the corner portion, and the corner portion slides from the sloped portion to the outer edge of the tip of the member to be mounted and exceeds this when mounting. The corners are in sliding contact with the slopes of the member for attachment.

[0006]

According to the above means, at the time of mounting, when the inclined surface portion of the mounting member contacts the outer edge of the tip of the mounting counterpart member,
The resultant force of the drag force and the frictional force acts in a direction at a right angle to the arm portion to push the arm portion apart, and at the time of removal, when the corner portion of the mounting member slides on the slope portion of the mounting partner member. The combined force of the drag force and the frictional force does not spread the arm portion by acting almost parallel to the arm portion.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, FIG. 1 shows the entire apparatus.
Among them, the member 1 for attachment is made of, for example, die-cast, and the flared slope portions 2 are formed on the outer portions on the left and right sides.
Has a cylindrical surface-shaped projection 3 at the outer edge of the tip connected to the inclined surface 2, and the projection 3 is directed downward in the illustrated state, for example, in the interior of a vehicle (top). It can be attached to the upper surface). Also, this member 1 for mounting
A cushion 4 made of a cushioning material such as felt is attached to the central portion of the lower surface of the.

On the other hand, a mounting member 6 is mounted on the upper surface of the mounted component 5. The mounting member 6 is formed by punching and bending a spring material such as a stainless steel plate, and has mounting holes 8 near both ends of a horizontal plate-shaped base 7 as shown in FIG. The component 9 is attached to the attached component 5 with a screw 9 that passes through the attachment hole 8. From the central part of the base part 7 to the one side, the stopper part 1
0 is extended.

From both ends of the base portion 7, flexible arm portions 12 are extended outward from the base portion 7 through the falling portions 11, respectively. A corner portion 13 located inward of the tip of the arm portion 12 is formed ahead of the arm portion 12, and a flared slope portion 14 is formed further ahead of the corner portion 13.

The dimension W between the corners 13 of the mounting member 6
1 is set to be larger than the inner method W2 and smaller than the outer method W3 of the protrusion 3 of the member 1 for mounting (W2 <W1 <W
3) In addition, the dimension W4 between the tips of the slopes 14 is determined to be larger than the external method W3 of the protrusion 3 of the member 1 for mounting (W
4> W3).

With this structure, when the component 5 to be attached is attached, the attaching member 6 attached to the attached component 5 is moved forward to the attachment counterpart member 1 side as indicated by arrow A in FIG. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, the inclined surface portion 14 of the attachment member 6 is pressed against the protrusion 3 that is the outer edge of the tip of the attachment counterpart member 1.
At this time, the resultant force FA of the reaction force TA against the mounting force and the frictional force MA acts on the mounting member 6, which acts on the diverging arm 12 in a direction substantially at right angles to the arm 12, so It acts effectively as a force that pushes 12 apart. Therefore, the corner portion 13 easily passes over the protrusion 3 of the attachment counterpart member 1 from the inclined surface portion 14, and the corner portion 13 is moved to the arm portion 12 as shown in FIG.
By the restoring force of, the slanting surface portion 2 of the member 1 for attachment is slidably contacted and engaged with this. Thus, the attached component 5 can be easily attached. The movement of the mounting member 6 is stopped by the stopper portion 10 abutting against the lower surface portion of the mounting counterpart member 1 via the cushion 4.

On the other hand, when the attached component 5 is removed, the attached component 5 is pulled back as indicated by arrow B in FIG. Then, since the corner portion 13 of the mounting member 6 is in contact with the slope portion 2 of the mounting counterpart member 1, a resultant force FB of the reaction force TB against the detaching force and the friction force MB acts on the mounting member 6, It acts on the flared arm 12 in a direction substantially parallel to it, and does not act as a force to push the arm 12 apart. Therefore, the corner portion 13 does not easily go over the protrusion 3 of the member 1 for attachment, the attached component 5 does not normally come off, and it is well resistant to vibration of the automobile and the like. Can be maintained. When the attachment component 5 is intentionally removed, the corner portion 13 of the attachment member 6 is pulled from the slope portion 2 of the attachment counterpart member 1 over the protrusion 3 by a strong force or the corner of the attachment member 6 is removed. The part 13 is twisted and pulled to move from the sloped part 2 of the member 1 for attachment to the projection 3.

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be widely applied and implemented as a general mounting device for parts other than automobile parts. The member 6 may be provided by insert molding or the like instead of being separately attached to the component 5. Furthermore, the slope 2 and the protrusion 3 of the member 1 for attachment
And the arm 12, corner 13 and slope 14 of the mounting member 6.
May be present on one side only, not on both the left and right sides, and on the other side, the mounting counterpart member 1 and the mounting member 6 may be rotatably supported.

[0014]

As is clear from the above description, in the component mounting apparatus of the present invention, the member to be mounted has the flared slope portion on the outer side, and the member to be mounted is the base of the component to be mounted. A flexible arm extending outwardly from the base of the arm, and a corner provided on the tip of the arm so as to be located inward from the tip of the arm, Also, it has a sloping portion formed in a divergent shape ahead of the corner portion, and at the time of mounting, the corner portion slidably contacts the outer peripheral edge portion of the tip of the member to be mounted, and exceeds the corner portion. Characterized in that it is configured to be in sliding contact with the slope portion of the member for attachment,
As a result, there is an excellent effect that it can be easily attached and yet hard to be removed.
