Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sun visor mounted on a ceiling panel of a passenger compartment by means of a mounting bracket and a support shaft. Regarding the holder.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in this type of support holder, a holder body is provided with a mounting hole into which a mounting screw is fitted and a hook for releasably locking a support shaft. Then, by fitting the mounting screw into the mounting hole and screwing the mounting screw into the ceiling panel of the vehicle compartment,
The support holder is attached to the ceiling panel, and the support shaft of the sun visor is fitted and locked to the hook, so that the sun visor can be held on the windshield side without swinging back and forth and up and down. There is.

Further, in order to illuminate the interior of the vehicle, an illumination device provided with a dedicated lamp case illumination lamp and the like in a unit form is mounted at a required position on the ceiling panel of the vehicle.

[0004]

As described above, in the prior art, the support holder and the illuminating device are individually manufactured and individually attached to the ceiling panel, so the number of parts and the number of assembly steps are increased. Increased, and the cost increased. In view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a lighting function for the passenger compartment in addition to the function of locking the support shaft of the sun visor, thereby reducing the number of parts and the number of assembling steps. Is to provide a sun visor support holder.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, a support holder for a vehicle sun visor according to the present invention is a sun visor mounted on a ceiling panel of a vehicle compartment by a mounting bracket and a support shaft. Is a support holder which is positioned on an extension line of the holder and which locks a support shaft formed on the sun visor, wherein the holder main body is formed with a hook which locks the support shaft detachably. A lamp storage chamber is formed in the lamp storage chamber, and an illumination lamp for illuminating the vehicle interior is incorporated in the lamp storage chamber.

[0006]

In the support holder for a vehicle sun visor according to the present invention constructed as described above, the support holder is attached to the ceiling panel of the passenger compartment, and the support shaft of the sun visor is fitted into the hook of the holder body. By being stopped, the sun visor is held on the windshield side without swinging back and forth and up and down. Further, the interior of the vehicle compartment is illuminated by lighting an illumination lamp assembled in the lamp storage chamber of the holder body.

[0007]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2, the ceiling panel 1 of the passenger compartment
A support shaft 3 is attached to a front corner of the support shaft 3 by a mounting bracket 2 at its vertical axis portion, and a sun visor 4 is attached to a horizontal shaft portion of the support shaft 3. The sun visor 4 is rotated around the horizontal axis of the support shaft 3 to be disposed at a storage position along the ceiling panel of the vehicle compartment and a front light-shielding position along the windshield. The vertical axis of 3 is rotated toward the side glass. The sun visor 4 has a support shaft 3
The support shaft 5 is formed in an exposed state on the extension line of the horizontal axis portion of the.

A support holder 11 for locking the support shaft 5 and holding the sun visor 4 on the windshield side.
Is attached to the central portion of the ceiling panel 1 near the front side. The support holder 11 is formed by injection molding of synthetic resin, and the holder body 12 has a mounting hole 13 into which a mounting screw 21 for the ceiling panel 1 is fitted, and a hook that holds the support shaft 5 detachably. 14 and 14 are formed separated from each other in the front and rear. Further, a lamp housing chamber 15 is formed in the holder body 12 at an intermediate portion between the hook 14 and the mounting hole 13, and a lamp socket 16 is provided at the inner side of the lamp housing chamber 15.
Has been assembled. The lamp housing chamber 15 has an opening on the surface of the holder body 12, and an illumination lamp 17 is inserted from the opening and screwed into the lamp socket 16 so that the illumination lamp 17 is incorporated in the lamp housing chamber 15. .

The illumination lamp 17 is connected to a vehicle-mounted battery 20 via a blinking switch 19, and the blinking switch 19 is arranged at a desired position in a part of the holder body 12 or in the vehicle compartment, for example, an instrument panel. It In addition, a lens 18 that causes the light emitted from the illumination lamp 17 to be emitted toward the vehicle interior is fitted into the front opening of the lamp storage chamber 15.

This embodiment is constructed as described above.
Therefore, by fitting the mounting screw 21 into the mounting hole 13 of the holder body 12 and screwing the mounting screw 21 into the ceiling panel 1,
A support holder 11 is attached to the ceiling panel 1. With the support holder 11 attached as described above, the support shaft 5 of the sun visor 4 is removably fitted and locked in the hook 14 of the holder body 12. As a result, the sun visor 4 is held on the windshield side without swinging back and forth and up and down. When the interior of the vehicle is illuminated, the blinking switch 19 is turned on to turn on the illumination lamp 17, and the light emitted by the lamp is emitted from the lens 18
The light is emitted through the vehicle into the vehicle interior, and the interior of the vehicle is illuminated thereby.

[0011]

As described above, according to the present invention,
In addition to the function of locking the support shaft of the sun visor, the support holder of the vehicle sun visor can have an illumination function for the vehicle interior. For this reason, it is possible to eliminate the labor for separately manufacturing and attaching the support holder and the lighting device to the ceiling panel, and it is possible to reduce the number of parts and the number of assembling steps to reduce the cost.
