Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an emblem attachment structure for attaching an emblem to a front grill in the construction of an automobile body or the like.

In many automobile bodies, emblems such as manufacturer's signs and vehicle model signs are attached to the front of the front grill. This will be explained with reference to FIG.

Emblem 1 with a mark not shown on the front
The upper end has a bottom-shaped concave portion 1a for preventing floating that abuts against the tip of the grille G, and the lower end thereof has a collar edge 1b that abuts against the front end of the grille G. , On the left and right sides of the back of emblem 1, there are screw holes 2 on the axis.
A round bar-shaped boss 2 with a hole a is provided in a protruding manner.

Therefore, a clamp-type bracket 3 is used to attach the emblem 1. In other words, the work of attaching the emblem 1 to the grille G is to fit the recess 1a to the tip of the upper grille G, and then attach the flange edge to the grille G. 1b to lower grill G
In this state, insert the mounting screws 5 from the back side into the left and right mounting holes 3a of the bracket 3, which is hung on the vertical plate 4 of the grill G, and insert the same screws 5 into the boss screws. Hole 2
This screws the emblem 1 onto the front surface of the grille G.

By the way, in such a conventional general mounting structure, each time the emblem 1 is attached or detached, the screw 5 must be tightened or loosened from behind the grille G.
The problem was that the workability of attaching and detaching was extremely poor.

Also, if the grille is thicker in the front-rear direction, the emblem boss will have to be longer or the brackets will have to be longer.

If the boss is made longer, the emblem manufacturing method will be more difficult and the mold cost will be higher, and if the bracket is made longer, the tightening work will have to be done at the back of the grille, reducing work efficiency. There were drawbacks that made it worse.

The present invention has been made in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and an object of the present invention is to provide an emblem mounting structure with excellent mounting workability.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on an illustrated embodiment.

The mounting device of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 is a structural example when applied to an M-shaped mark emblem,
The shape of the mark itself is not particularly relevant to the configuration method of the embodiment; in other words, a general rectangular mark may be configured in the same way.

First, the emblem 6 has an M-shaped plate 7 that forms its main body, and the periphery of the emblem 6 is bordered by a flange plate. Specifically, the emblem 6 is formed with the following flange plates.

(a) Side flange 8 The lower end is cut off in a V-shape to form a tapered edge 8a, and a recess 8b that engages with the tip of the middle grille G2 is cut in the vertical edge.

(b) Lower collar 9 This is a plate placed between the forward tapered edges of the lower ends of the side collars 8.

(C) Cut collar 10.11 ■ A collar plate connected to the shape, with a recess 10a in the middle part.
, lla are notched, and upwardly directed protrusions 10b and llb are formed between them and the side flange 8. Next, screw holes 12a are formed on the axis at two places on the left and right at the bottom of the back surface of the shape plate 7. A perforated boss 12 is provided to protrude to have the same thickness as the collar, and a U-shaped rib 7a is formed below each boss 12 to open upward.

The intermediate portion of each spring plate 14 is fastened to the end surface of each boss 12 by a screw 13, and the lower end portion 1 of each spring plate 14 is fastened to the end surface of each boss 12.
4a is fitted into the rib 7a so as to protrude forward and downward, and the upper end portion 14b of the spring plate 14 is protruded rearward and upward.

As shown in Figure 5, the front grill is the upper grill G1.
, the middle grill G2, and the lower grill G3, each grill is horizontally long and has a long plate shape that is inclined, and both the upper and lower surfaces thereof are formed so as to be inclined downward toward the front.

The emblem 6 formed in this way is attached to the front grill 0.
To attach it to the front surface of 1 to G3, first attach the protrusions 10b and l.
lb on the front end of the upper grill G1, and then push in the lower part of the emblem 6 while letting the upper end 14b of the spring plate 14 go under the front end of the middle grill G2.
By doing this, the tapered edge 8a of the side flange 8 and the lower flange 9
With the rear edge touching the lower grille G3 and the recesses 8b, 10a, and lla of the side flanges 8 and cut flanges 1G and 11 fitting into the tips of the middle grille G2, the upper end portion 14b of the leaf spring 14 The emblem 6 is pressed against the upper surface, which is the front end surface of the grilles 01 to G3, by the spring pressure that comes into elastic contact with the lower surface of the middle grille G2.

In this case, the back side of the emblem comes into pressure contact with the top surface of the grill due to the elastic force of the leaf spring 14, and the friction force corresponding to the pressure force reliably prevents the emblem from sliding from the top surface of the grill and locks it. Ru.

In addition, in order to remove the emblem 6 from the grille G~G3, it is only necessary to resist the elasticity of the leaf spring 14 and pull out the lower flange part 9 upwards.In this way, the emblem 6 can be attached and removed from the grille G~ This can be performed with a one-touch operation with bare hands from the front of the G3.

As described above, according to the emblem mounting structure according to the present invention, the upper and lower ends of the emblem are brought into contact with the upper and lower grilles, and the tip of the leaf spring attached to the back side of the emblem is attached to the middle grill. Since the lower surface of the grille is configured to be compressed, the emblem can be attached and detached with one touch, and as described above, there is a practical effect of improving the workability of attaching and detaching the emblem.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] Regarding the mounting structure of the emblem that has a mark written on the front and is attached to the front end face of the grill across at least three stages of the front grill, the lower surface of the middle stage grill of the above-mentioned front grill is tilted downward toward the front. formed to
The upper and lower ends of the emblem are in contact with the front ends of the upper and lower grilles, respectively, and on the back side of the emblem there is a base of a spring plate that is in elastic contact with the lower surface of the middle grille from the rear and lower side. The emblem mounting structure is characterized in that the emblem is formed to be attached to the front grill by the frictional force generated when the emblem is pressed against the front end surface of the grill by the elastic force of the spring plate.
