Abstract

PURPOSE:To raise the getting-on and off property of vehicle by a method in which a welt is attached to the door opening of vehicular panel, and only a closing part integrally projected from the side end of the body of a kicking is lapped on one end of the welt to protect the vehicular panel. CONSTITUTION:A welt 8 is attached to the joint flange of a side sill 4 provided to the lower edge of the door opening 1. In a kicking plate 21, consisting of a body 22 and closing parts 23 formed projectionally on both ends of the body 22 integrally, the end 25 of the closing part 23 is closed to prevent the intrusion of rain water, etc., into the body 22. Also, the upside of the terminal 12 of the welt 8 is lapped with the closing parts 23 of the kicking plate 21 and the end face 26 of the body 22 is faced the end face 27 of the welt 8. In this case, the general face 16 of the welt 8 is nearly leveled flush with the upside 24 of the body 22 of the kicking plate 21 to raise the getting-on and -off property of the vehicle.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a terminal structure of a king plate disposed on a side sill of an automobile.

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a door opening of an automobile is formed by a vehicle body component that serves as a frame of the door opening l, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. A side sill 4 formed by joining a sill outer 2 and a sill inner 3 is disposed at the lower edge of the door opening 1, and a joining flange 5 of the side sill 4 is connected to an upper flange 6 of the door opening 1 and the front and rear side edges. Flange 7
A welt 8 is attached that extends integrally from the top.

Further, a glittering plate 9 for protecting the side sill 4 is attached to the side sill 4 along its longitudinal direction.

This Kiraking plate 8 is formed by cutting a long extrusion molded body into predetermined dimensions as shown in FIGS. The protruding portion 11 has a chevron-shaped cross-section that substantially matches the cross-sectional shape of the welt 8. Then, the side ends 13 of the protrusion 11 are placed over the front and rear ends 12 of the welt 8 extending from the front and rear directions of the side sill 4, and several ribs 14 protruding from the lower surface of the flat portion 10 are brought into contact with the upper surface of the sill outer 2. I'm letting you touch me. Incidentally, the creep plate (not shown) formed on the lower surface of the plane part IO
・If 9 is firmly attached to the side sill 4, a gap 15 corresponding to the height of the lip 14 is formed between the lower surface of the flat part 10 of the sparkling plate 9 and the upper surface of the sill outer 2 of the side sill 4. Dust, mud, rainwater, etc. can easily enter the side sill 15, causing the paint on the surface of the side sill 4 to peel off, or water to enter the inside from the mating surface of the joining flange 5 of the side sill 4, which can cause side sill rust. There was a problem. Furthermore, since the protruding portion 11 of the kinking plate 9 protrudes upward from the general surface 16 of the welt 8, there is a problem in that the ease of getting on and off the vehicle for the occupant is worsened by the protrusion.

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, closing portions 17 formed by injection molding are integrally joined to both sides of the kinking plate 8 in a later process to close the gaps 15 formed by the eight kinking plates. Therefore, it is possible to perform terminal treatment to prevent the infiltration of dust, mud, rainwater, etc.

However, even with such a structure in which the ends of the kinking plate 9 are treated, although it is possible to prevent rainwater etc. from entering from both sides of the kinking plate 9, the welts on both sides of the kinking plate 3 can be prevented. Since the attachment portion to the welt 8 has a double structure, the kinking plate 8 protrudes upward from the general upper surface 1B of the welt 8, and the As shown in FIG. 8, the kinking plate 9 ends up protruding toward the door 18. the result,
Clearance t between the door trim 20 arranged on the door inner panel 18. 1 was narrower than before, and there was a risk that it would interfere with the door trim.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and its object is to provide a kinking plate without impairing the ease with which passengers can get on and off the vehicle.

The gist of the present invention is to attach a band member to the lower end flange of the door opening formed by the vehicle body panel, and to protrude integrally from both ends of the main body of the kinking plate onto the general surface of the band member. The reason is that only the closed part that is formed is polymerized.

The present invention will be described in detail below based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 8 to 11, the door opening l
A side sill 4 formed by integrally joining a sill outer 2 and a sill inner 3 as in the conventional case is disposed on the lower edge, and a joining flange 5 of this side sill 4 is connected to the upper edge flange of the door opening l and the front and rear side edge flanges. A welt 8 that extends integrally is attached.

On the other hand, the Kiraking Play H21 has a main body part 22 formed to a predetermined size by extrusion molding, and closing parts 23 formed integrally with the main body part 22 by injection molding in a later process on both ends of the main body part 22. It consists of The main body part 22 and the closing part 23 are composed of a flat part that covers the upper surface of the sill outer 2 and a protruding part attached to the joining flange 5, as in the conventional case. The lower sides of the sides are joined so that they overlap,
In addition to being higher than the upper surface 24 of the main body part 22 by the thickness of the blocking part 23, the end part 25 of the blocking part 23 is closed to prevent rainwater or the like from entering the main body part 22. In this embodiment, when attaching the kinking plate 21 to the side sill 4, the closing portion 23 of the kinking plate 21 is overlapped with the upper surface of the end portion 12 of the welt 8, and the end surface 28 of the main body portion 22 and the welt The end faces 27 of 8 are opposed to each other.

Therefore, in this embodiment, the general surface 18 of the welt 8 and the upper surface 24 of the main body part 22 of the Kiraking play) 21 are almost at the same height, and only the closed part 23 is the general surface of the Kiraking play) 21 and the welt 8. It protrudes slightly above 18.

Therefore, according to such a mounting part structure, by providing the closing parts 23 on both sides of the kinking plate 21, the space between the flat part of the kinking plate 21 and the upper surface of the sill outer 2 of the side sill 4 is closed. Storage 1 body part 22
The side sill 4 can be protected without dust, rainwater, etc. entering inside. Furthermore, since the main body portion 22 of the Kiraking plate 21 has almost the same height as the general surface 1B of the welt 8 at the attachment portion of the joint flange 5, it is possible to improve the ease of getting on and off the passenger compared to the conventional Kiraking plate. can. Furthermore, at the attachment site with the welt 8, the closing part 23 of the Kiraking play) 21
Since only the welt 8 overlaps with the welt 8, the amount of protrusion of the sparkling plate 21 toward the door 18 side can be reduced, and a sufficient clearance L2 between the door trim 2-0 and the door trim 2-0 can be secured. Furthermore, since the body portion 22 of the Kiraking plate 21 is structured to directly cover the joint 2 flange 5 of the side sill 4, the cross-sectional shape of the Kiraking plate 21 is not affected by the welt 8 as in the past. , Kiraking Plate 2) In addition to increasing the degree of freedom in design of 21,
The upper surface 24 of the main body 22 can be lowered to a position where it abuts the joint flange 5, thereby further improving the ease of getting on and off the vehicle.

In the above embodiment, the closing portion 23 is joined to the main body portion 22 of the extrusion-molded Kiraking plate 21 by injection molding. It is also possible to couple it to the main body part 22 by.

Since dust, mud, rainwater, etc. can be reliably prevented from entering the plate, rusting of the vehicle body panels can be prevented, and the ease of getting on and off the vehicle can be improved.

In addition, the degree of freedom in designing the sparkling plate can be increased, and a sufficient clearance between the sparkling plate and the door trim can be ensured, and interference with the door trim can be reliably prevented.
