Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a component which can be fixed to a predetermined position from a temporary place without using a special member on a mounting surface.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a motor vehicle, a bracket 9 is fixed to a mounting surface 1 of a body by bolts 10 as shown in FIG. Bolts 11 provided on the spoiler 2 are inserted, and tightened and fixed by nuts (not shown).

[0003]

The spoiler 2 has the structure shown in FIG.
As shown in the figure, there is a type provided with a high mount stop lamp 2a. When such a spoiler 2 is mounted, an operation of connecting the connector 7 taken out from the mounting surface 1 of the body and the connector 8 on the spoiler 2 side is required. is there.

In such an operation of connecting the connectors 7 and 8, the bolts 11 provided on the spoiler 2 are temporarily inserted into the brackets 9 to temporarily place the connectors 7 and 8, and then tightened and fixed with nuts. However, the spoiler 2 temporarily placed in the joining operation of the connectors 7 and 8 was moved, and the bolts 11 fell off the bracket, so that the joining operation was difficult.

In order to avoid this, when the connectors 7 and 8 are connected in a state where the spoiler 2 is temporarily tightened with a nut, an operation of alternately tightening and loosening the left and right nuts in order to position the spoiler 2 is performed. In any case, the mounting work efficiency is affected. Further, after the spoiler 2 is mounted, the bracket 9 is visually recognized from the outside, so that the appearance is deteriorated and the bracket 9 is costly.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a component mounting structure in which a component can be fixed at a predetermined position continuously from a temporary placement without using a special dedicated member.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, according to the present invention, a spool-shaped receiving member is fixed to a mounting surface, and a mounting surface and a contact surface of a component to be mounted on the mounting surface are provided. A retainer having two engaging holes for engaging with the receiving member continuously provided on the stepped surface having different heights via the guide grooves is fixed to the receiving surface, and one engaging hole is provided for the receiving member. In the engagement of the holes, the component is temporarily placed on the mounting surface, and is fixed by engagement of another engagement hole.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings, taking the attachment of a spoiler as an example. FIG. 1 shows a state before the spoiler 2 is fixed, and FIG. 2 shows a state where the spoiler 2 is fixed. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a body mounting surface, and reference numeral 2 denotes a spoiler for components mounted on the mounting surface 1.

The mounting surface 1 has a nut 3 for tightening and a stud bolt 4 to which a spool-shaped receiving member 5 is fixed. A retainer 6 that engages with the receiving member 5 is fixedly provided on a surface of the spoiler 2 that comes into contact with the mounting surface 1.

As shown in FIG. 3, the height H of the retainer 6 is different from the height H of a fixing portion 6h abutting on the spoiler 2 and two engaging holes 6c and 6d engaging with the groove of the spool-shaped receiving member 5. Each of the step surfaces 6a and 6b is provided continuously through a guide groove 6f. And the upper step surface 6a
A divergent opening 6e to be inserted into the receiving member 5 is formed in the engaging hole 6c provided in the second member.

The retainer 6 shown in FIG. 3 has a structure in which two engaging holes 6c and 6d are provided concentrically on step surfaces 6a and 6b having different heights H and are continuous via straight guide grooves 6f. However, as shown in FIG.
The structure may be such that c and 6d are provided offset to the step surfaces 6a and 6b having different heights H, and the two engagement holes 6c and 6d are continuous with the crank-shaped guide groove 6g.

Since the present invention has a structure as described above, as shown in FIG. 4, the spoiler 2 is placed on the mounting surface 1 and is pushed obliquely to the left so that the retainer 6 receives the receiving member 5. , Is inserted into the groove of the receiving member 5 from the opening 6e, the engaging hole 6c of the upper step surface 6a is engaged with the groove of the receiving member 5, and the spoiler 2 is temporarily placed on the mounting surface 1. Is placed.

In this state, there is a gap G between the fixing portion 6h to the retainer 6 and the step surface 6a and between the step surface 6a of the retainer 6 and the upper surface of the groove of the receiving member 5, so that the spoiler 2 It can be freely moved by the gap G. Accordingly, it is possible to easily perform the work of connecting the connector 7 taken out from the mounting surface 1 of the body and the connector 8 on the spoiler 2 side.

When the spoiler 2 is further pushed from the temporary placement state, the engagement holes 6d of the lower step surface 6b engage with the grooves of the receiving member 5, as shown in FIG. When the engagement hole 6d of the lower step surface 6b engages with the groove of the receiving member 5,
There is no gap between the fixing portion 6h of the retainer 6 and the step surface 6b, and the upper surface of the groove of the receiving member 5 is sandwiched between the step surface 6b and the lower surface of the fixing portion h, thereby restricting the movement of the spoiler 2. It is fixed at a predetermined position on the mounting surface 1.

When the retainer 6 shown in FIG. 6 is used, the engaging hole 6c of the upper step surface 6a engages with the groove of the receiving member 5, and the spoiler 2 is temporarily placed on the mounting surface 1. Sometimes a stop action is performed at the engagement hole 6c, and the spoiler 2
Even if it is pushed, even if it pushes with strong force, it can recognize the temporary placement state reliably, and then
When the spoiler 2 is moved laterally along the guide groove 6g having a crank shape and then pushed, the receiving member 5 is engaged with the engagement hole 6d, and the spoiler 2 is fixed.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the receiving member 5 is
, The dimensional control is relatively simple, but since the fixing portion 6h of the retainer 6 is not embedded in the spoiler 2, it is necessary to control the holding strength of the retainer 6 to the spoiler 3. However, as shown in FIG.
By embedding in the spoiler 2, the holding strength can be increased.

Therefore, when the present invention is applied to the mounting of the spoiler 2, the mounting operation is performed quickly, and the conventional bracket is eliminated, so that the appearance after the mounting is improved and the cost is reduced. it can.

In the above embodiment, the attachment of the spoiler 2 has been described as an example, but the present invention can be widely applied to the attachment of other parts such as automobile parts or electric appliances other than the spoiler.

[0019]

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to perform the one-touch operation from the temporary placement to the fixing at a predetermined position for mounting the component by pushing the component, thereby improving the efficiency of the component mounting operation. In addition, since a special member for temporarily placing components is not required, there is an advantage that the appearance of the mounting portion is improved and the cost is reduced.
