Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a structure for attaching a sheet-like object, and more particularly to a structure for attaching a sheet-like object to a member to be attached via a clip.

Conventionally, in this type of structure, a sheet-like object is provided with an engaging part that engages with a clip, the clip is engaged with this retaining part, and the sheet-like object is attached to a member to be attached via the clip. Alternatively, an engaging member that engages with the clip is separately provided, the clip and the engaging member are engaged with each other by sandwiching the sheet-like object, the clip is supported by the sheet-like object, and the clip is supported through the clip. The sheet-like object is attached to the member to be attached.

However, in either structure, the load of the sheet-like object is supported on the attached member through the clip, and the clip is coupled to the attached member by being elastically deformed. However, the load in the vertical direction of the sheet-like object cannot be reliably supported, and the sheet-like object sometimes rattles against the member to which it is attached due to vibration or the like.

Therefore, in order to eliminate the wobbling of the sheet-like object, it is necessary to provide a support structure separate from the mounting structure, which increases the complexity of the structure.

Among the conventional structures mentioned above, as in the former case, when an engaging part is provided on a sheet-like object, the structure of the sheet-like object becomes complicated, leading to processing problems and high costs; In the case of a combination of a clip and an engaging member that engages with the clip, not only the number of parts increases, but also the management of parts becomes troublesome because the clip and the engaging member are a pair. There was also the problem that the other member was lost due to loss.

The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and has a simple structure with a small number of parts. , the load of the sheet-like object can be supported by the clip, and even if vibrations are transmitted to the sheet-like object, it can be supported reliably without rattling, and the sheet-like object can be easily attached to the member to be attached. The object of the present invention is to provide a structure for attaching a sheet-like object.

That is, the present invention is a sheet-like object mounting structure in which a sheet-like object is attached to a member to be attached via a clip, and the sheet-like object has an attachment hole, and the object to be attached has an attachment hole, respectively. The clip is provided with a base;
An engaging body extends from one side of the base and engages with the mounting hole, and a pair of legs extends from the other side of the base and fits into the mounting hole, and the engaging body extends from the base and engages with the mounting hole. , comprising: a thick load support portion capable of supporting the load of the sheet-like object; and an elastic tongue portion that curves from the tip of the load support portion, faces toward the base, and engages with the attachment hole;
Further, the length of the 1,000 pairs of legs is made shorter than the thickness of the sheet-like object, one of the legs is elastically deformable, and the engagement hole is provided at the tip of the leg in the mounting hole. It is characterized by forming an engaging protrusion that engages with the stepped portion.

Embodiments of the mounting structure of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a sheet-like material, and this sheet-like material 1 is a radiator grille for an automobile, which is mainly made of plastic such as polyacetal and has a seed-like shape, and has a certain thickness.

Reference numeral 2 denotes a member to be attached, which is made of a metal panel of the vehicle body, to which the sheet-like article 1 is attached via a clip 3 made of synthetic resin, which will be explained next.

Incidentally, the sheet-like object 1 and the attachment member 2 are provided with an attachment hole 1a and an attachment hole 2a for inserting the clip 3 therein.

The clip 3 (ri) includes a base 4, an engaging body 5 extending from one side of the base 4 and engaging with the mounting hole 2a, and an engaging body 5 extending from the other side of the base 4 and fitting into the mounting hole 1a. It is formed by a pair of legs 6 a z 6 b.

The engaging body 5Fi of the clip 3 includes a thick elastically non-deformable load supporting portion 5a which extends from the base 4 and is capable of supporting the load of the sheet-like object 1, and a load supporting portion 5a which is curved from the tip of the load supporting portion 5a and extends from the base 4. An elastic tongue portion 5b facing the base 4 and having an elastically deformable tip that engages with the attachment hole 1b.
It will be accomplished as if it were prepared for.

Further, the lengths of the legs 6 a and 6 b of the clip 3 are made shorter than the thickness of the sheet-like material 1, and one of the legs 6 a is made elastically deformable, and a retaining step (to be described later) is provided at the tip thereof. The engaging protrusion 6c that engages with the portion g is integrally formed, and the upper surface of one leg 6a and the lower surface of the other leg 6b are parallel.

In addition, in the case shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the base 4 is connected to two contact pieces 4a and 4b that contact the attached member 2.
The end face of the contact piece 4at4b is formed in a U-shape with A bent portion 5c is provided at the tip of the portion 5b, and this bent portion 5c is engaged with the mounting hole 2a, and the bent portion 5c and the base 4 facing the bent portion 5c are
When the engagement body 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 2a with the distance from the end face of the elastic tongue portion 5b set to a size commensurate with the thickness of the mounting member 2, and the tip bent portion 5c of the elastic tongue portion 5b is engaged. The edge of the mounting hole 2a of the mounting member 2 is interposed between the bent portion 5c and the end surface of the base 4, so that horizontal movement of the clip 3 can be prevented.

Further, the mounting hole 2a is formed in a square shape, while the upper surface of the bent portion 5c of the elastic tongue portion 5b of the clip 3 is formed into an upward arcuate surface, and the bottom surface of the load supporting portion 5a is formed into a planar shape. Then, by inserting the engaging body 5 into the attachment hole 2a and attaching the bent portion 5c to the attachment member 2, the clip 3 can be easily attached to the elastic tongue portion 5 by rotating the clip 3.
b is wrapped around the wall surface of the mounting hole 2a so that it can be removed from the mounting hole 2a.

Both legs 6a of the clip 3 formed as described above
, 6b are fitted into the mounting hole 1a of the sheet-like material 1,
They are formed as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 and 4 and 5.

That is, both legs 6 of the clip 3 in the mounting hole 1a
The opening on the front side into which the a and 6 b are inserted has an opening a at the lower part with a width matching the leg body 6b, as shown by the thick solid line in Fig. 4, and a retaining protrusion at the upper part of the opening a. An opening with a wide width corresponding to 6c, and an opening a,
The overall height of the leg 6b is made to correspond to the height from the lower surface of the leg 6b to the upper surface of the leg 6a.

As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 4-5, the mounting holes 1a are formed by passing the lower openings 11 through the lower openings A to the back surface of the leg body 6.
While forming the fitting hole C of the leg 6a, the upper opening is made into the following shape with the back side width dimension being 11, and the fitting hole a of the leg 6a is formed in the upper part of the fitting hole C. , the insertion hole e1 of the engagement protrusion 6c, and the storage chamber f of the protrusion 6c are formed as follows.

That is, the upper surface of the mounting hole 1a, which communicates with the upper part of the upper opening, is formed to have a width corresponding to the width of the leg 6a from the center of the upper opening toward the back side, and to descend at a small angle of inclination. , from both sides of the upper part of the opening toward the back side at a dog-like inclination angle to form the insertion hole d for the leg body 6a in the center of the upper part of the mounting hole 1a, and at the same time to form the insertion hole d at the large inclination angle. The engaging protrusion 6c is located below the descending surface.
The insertion hole e is formed through which the material is inserted.

The lengths of these two fitting holes d and e from the opening 1b are
Both holes di are dimensioned to match the length dimension of the leg body 6a.
A storage chamber f for the engagement protrusion 6c is formed on the back side of the engagement protrusion 6c via the engagement step g.

The storage chamber f in this case is sized to provide a gap above the engagement projection 6c when the engagement projection 6c is inserted through the insertion hole e and stored in the storage chamber f.

With the above configuration, in order to attach the sheet-like object 1 to the member to be attached 2, first, both legs 6a of the clip 3 are attached.
, 6b as the opening a in the attachment hole 1a of the sheet-like object 1
By doing so, the leg body 6b is inserted along the insertion hole C and is fitted into the insertion hole C, and the leg body 6a is configured so that the engagement protrusion 6c is inserted along the insertion hole e. When it is inserted and stored in the storage chamber f, it is simultaneously fitted into the insertion hole d, and the engagement protrusion 6c engages with the engagement step g.

In this way, the clip 3 is pushed in the opposite direction by the legs 6ay6b, and is fitted into the fitting holes c and d, and is pressed into contact with the opposing bottom surface of the fitting hole cyd, and the base 4 and the engaging protrusion 6c are pressed into the fitting hole 1a. Since one end edge of the sheet 1 and the engagement step g are pressed together in a bending manner, the sheet-like object 1 can be moved without wobbling in any direction.
It can be reliably installed on the

Next, the engaging body 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 2a of the mounting member 2 by bending the elastic tongue portion 5b of the clip 3, and the elastic tongue portion 5b is engaged with the mounting hole 2a.

Thus, the base 4 of the clip 3 and the bent portion 5 of the tongue portion 5b
The attached member 2 is inserted between the attached member 2 and the engaging member 5, and the elastic tongue portion 5b of the engaging body 5 is biased in the opposite direction to the supporting portion 5a and presses against the opposing wall surface of the attached hole 2a. The load of the sheet-like article 1 can be reliably supported by the thick load-bearing portion 5a that can be clicked on the clip 3 without wobbling as a whole.

In order to remove the sheet-like object 1 attached to the attached member 2 as described above, first insert a screwdriver (not shown), for example, into the storage chamber f above the engagement protrusion 6c, and bend the protrusion 6c. The sheet-like object 1 is removed from the clip 3 by disengaging from the engagement step g. Next, the clip 3 is gripped and rotated to move the elastic tongue 5b of the clip 3 to the wall surface of the mounting hole 2a. After bending the clip 3, the clip 3 is removed from the member 2 to which it is attached by pulling it out once.

Therefore, the sheet-like material 1 and the attached member 2 can be easily attached and detached in a short time.

The above explanation is for the case where a radiator grille is used as the sheet-like object 1 and a metal panel of a car body is used as the attached member 2, but it can be applied to an attachment structure between any sheet-like object and an attached member. Needless to say, there is nothing that can be done.

As described above, according to the present invention, the two parts of the engaging body in the clip are simply made thicker so that they also serve as the support part that supports the load of the sheet-like object, so there is no need to provide a special support structure. The structure can be simplified and the number of parts can be reduced, and at the same time, the legs, the base, and the engaging protrusion of the clip can grip the sheet-like object reliably without rattling, and the load of the sheet-like object can be transferred to the engaging body. The sheet-like object can be reliably attached to the attached member because the supporting portion of the engaging member provides reliable support, and the elastic tongue portion of the engaging body, the supporting portion, and the base engage with the attached member without rattling. It is.

Further, according to the present invention, when attaching the sheet-like object to the member to be attached, only the elastic tongue and one leg of the clip are bent, and the clip is attached to the sheet-like object or the member to be attached. It is only necessary to attach the sheet-like object, and even when removing the sheet-like object, it can be removed with a single touch by bending only one leg provided with the retaining protrusion. Therefore, the above-mentioned installation and removal work as a whole is extremely quick and easy. It's easy to do.

Further, even when the sheet-like object is attached to a member to be attached via a clip, the legs of the clip do not protrude outside the surface of the sheet-like object, and therefore the appearance is good. can be placed closely together.
