Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To hold the noise insulating effect of a noise insulating member, and prevent engine noise from being penetrated into a cabin by forming a flange on the whole circumference of the side surface of an accelerator pedal stopper fixed to a dash panel, and nipping the end of the noise insulating member by this flange and the dash panel. SOLUTION: An accelerator pedal stopper 10 is mounted on a dash panel 20 by a stud bolt 21. At this time, the accelerator pedal stopper 10 is arranged on the opening part 22b of a dash silencer 22 in the state where the dash panel 20 is covered with a dash silencer 22, and the dash silencer 22 and the top part 12 of the accelerator pedal stopper 10 are then covered with a carpet 23. A flange 17 is formed on the whole circumference of the side surface 11 lower part of the accelerator pedal stopper 10. The opening part end 22c of the dash silencer 22 is nipped by the flange 17 and the dash panel 20. Thus, the clearance between the accelerator pedal stopper 10 and the end of the dash silencer 22 is blocked to hold the noise insulating effect of the dash panel 22.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an accelerator pedal stopper structure and, more particularly, to a technique capable of blocking noise due to engine vibration and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An accelerator pedal stopper of an automobile is conventionally used. FIG. 3 illustrates an installation state of the accelerator pedal stopper, and FIG. 4 illustrates a cross-sectional structure of the accelerator pedal stopper. 3 and 4,
The accelerator pedal stopper 40 is attached to the dash panel 50 by stud bolts 51. In addition,
The stud bolt 51 is fixed to the dash panel 50 by welding, and the screw hole 44 of the accelerator pedal stopper 40 is provided.
Is screwed into. Reference numeral 45 denotes a reinforcing rib inside the accelerator pedal stopper 40. Accelerator pedal stopper 40
Bottom portion 43 is in contact with the dash panel 50.

[0003] The dash silencer 52 is arranged so as to cover the dash panel 50. 52a is a skin material of the dash silencer 52. The carpet 53 is arranged so as to cover the top 42 of the accelerator pedal stopper 40 and the dash silencer 52. The accelerator pedal stopper 40 is provided in the opening 52b of the dash silencer 52. The accelerator pedal stopper 40 is arranged at a position to be a stopper of the accelerator pedal 60 depressed by the driver.

[0004]

However, in the above-described conventional example, a gap is formed between the side surface 41 of the accelerator pedal stopper 40 and the end 52c of the opening 52b of the dash silencer 52. There was a problem that was reduced.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a configuration of the present invention is to form a flange on the entire periphery of a side surface of an accelerator pedal stopper fixed to a dash panel, and to use the flange and the dash panel to form a flange. An accelerator pedal stopper structure characterized by sandwiching an end of the sound insulating member.

According to the structure of the present invention, the gap between the accelerator pedal stopper and the end of the sound insulating member can be closed by the flange formed on the side surface of the accelerator pedal stopper. The reduction of the effect can be reduced.

[0007]

FIG. 1 shows an installed state of an accelerator pedal stopper according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 shows a plan view and a sectional structure of the accelerator pedal stopper. In FIG. 2, (a) shows a plane,
(B) shows the AA cross-sectional structure of (a), and (c) shows the BB cross-sectional structure of (a). In FIGS. 1 and 2, the accelerator pedal stopper 10 is attached to a dash panel 20 by stud bolts 21. In addition, the stud bolt 21 is attached to the dash panel 20.
And is screwed into the claw 15 of the screw hole 14 of the accelerator pedal stopper 10. A flange 17 is formed all around the lower part of the side surface 11 of the accelerator pedal stopper 10. Reference numeral 16 denotes a reinforcing rib inside the accelerator pedal stopper 10.

[0008] A dash silencer 22 is arranged to cover the dash panel 20. In addition, 22a is a skin of the dash silencer 22. The carpet 23 is the dash silencer 22 and the accelerator pedal stopper 10
Is arranged so as to cover the top portion 12 of the head. The accelerator pedal stopper 10 is provided in the opening 22b of the dash silencer 22. The accelerator pedal 30 is rotatably attached to a support base 32 by a support shaft 31 and is urged in the direction of arrow 35 by a spring member (not shown). The support base 32 is fixed to the dash panel 20 by bolts 33 and 34. The accelerator pedal 30 is depressed by the driver. At this time, the accelerator pedal stopper 10 is a stopper for the accelerator pedal 30. Bottom 1 of accelerator pedal stopper 10
Reference numeral 3 abuts on the dash panel 20, and an end 22 c of the opening 22 b of the skin material 22 a of the dash silencer 22 is sandwiched between the flange 17 and the dash panel 20.

With the above-described structure, the gap between the accelerator pedal stopper 10 fixed to the dash panel 20 and the end of the dash silencer 22 as a sound insulating member (including the end 22c of the opening 22b of the skin material 22a) is formed. Since it can be closed by the flange 17 formed on the side surface 11 of the stopper 10, the accelerator pedal stopper 1
The reduction in the sound insulation effect of the dash panel 22 due to the installation of 0 can be reduced.

[0010]

According to the accelerator pedal stopper structure according to the present invention, the gap between the accelerator pedal stopper and the end of the sound insulating member can be closed by the flange on the side surface of the accelerator pedal stopper. The reduction in the sound insulation effect of the member can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to prevent engine noise from entering the vehicle interior from the dash panel.
