Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (D) Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a mounting device for mounting the front and rear end portions of a door waist molding (hereinafter referred to as molding) to an automobile door.

2. Prior Art Conventionally, some automobile doors 1 as shown in FIG. 1 have a molding 3 attached to the waist portion 2 for decorative purposes or the like. This molding 3 is attached to the door outer panel 4, and there are attachment devices for the front and rear ends 5 and 6 as shown in Figures 2 and 3 (note that the figure does not show the rear end Part 6 attachment device is shown)
.

In the mounting device shown in FIG. 2, an end cap 8 is attached to the terminal 7 of the molding 3 in order to prevent injuries caused by the terminal 7 and to prevent poor appearance due to exposure of the terminal. 9 is folded back to the horizontal surface portion 10 of the door outer panel 4 and locked, so that the rear end portion 6 of the molding 3 can be removed.Of course, the front end portion 5 is also attached in the same manner.

Furthermore, the attachment device shown in FIG.
The clip portion 13 is fitted into a locking hole 14 in the horizontal surface portion 10 of the door outer panel 4 for attachment.

However, these surface mounting devices have the following problems. That is, in the mounting device shown in FIG. 2, the locking claw 9 is manually bent and locked to the door outer panel 4, so the fixing force is weak, and the locking claw 9 cannot be folded back inside the door l. Because of this, it is not possible to visually check whether it is folded back and the locking state may be insufficient.

On the other hand, the mounting device shown in FIG. 3 is fitted by pushing the clip part 13, so although it improves the fitting workability, the locking force decreases, and if the locking force is strengthened, the fitting workability deteriorates. There are contradictory issues.

In addition, in the same device shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, since both are fixed using the end caps 8 and 12, the amount of overlap between the end caps 8 and 12 and the molding 3 is increased, resulting in an increase in size. Otherwise, there is a problem that it cannot be fixed firmly and the sense of continuity of the molding is lost. Incidentally, an example of such a conventional technique is Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 56-64811.

■Purpose of the Invention This invention has been made in view of the conventional situation, and is an end attachment device for a door waist molding that enables the molding to be securely fixed to a part of the door waste 1 and has an excellent appearance quality. is intended to provide.

■Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the door waist molding end mounting device of the present invention includes a tapping part in which a screw hole is formed inside the end of the molding, and a tapping part with a screw hole formed therein. An opening is formed on the inner side of the molding so that the screw hole faces the door sash side, and a through hole is formed in the door sash at a position corresponding to the screw hole, and the screw of the tapping part is inserted through the through hole. The feature is that the end of the molding can be removed by screwing a screw into the hole and tightening it.

(6) Examples Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained based on examples.

In this description, parts or members that are the same as or equivalent to those in the prior art are given the same reference numerals and redundant description will be omitted.

FIGS. 4 and 5 are diagrams showing embodiments of the present invention.

First, to explain the structure, reference numeral 17 in the figure is a molding, and the terminal 19 of the rear end 18 of this molding 17 is covered with an end cap 20, and inside the rear end 18, a tapping part 21 is installed front and rear. It is arranged to be movable in the direction (longitudinal direction of the mall) and the vertical direction (door height direction).

Specifically, this tapping part 21 is formed with a screw hole 22 (simple round hole or screw hole) extending substantially horizontally and along the vehicle width direction. ) is formed with a guide tapered portion 23. A slightly protruding boss 24 is formed around the guide tapered portion 23, and an abutting surface 26 that abuts against the inner side 25 of the molding 17 is formed around the boss 24.
is formed. A plurality of spring pieces 27 are extended to such a tapping part 21, and the tips of these spring pieces 27 abut against the inner surface of the molding 17, and the tapping part 2
1 in the molding 17, and the tapping part 21 is slidable in the longitudinal direction of the molding 17 and movable in the vertical direction.

Further, an opening 29 is formed in the vehicle-inward side portion 25 of the molding 17 so that the screw hole 22 of the tapping part 21 faces the door sash 28 side. This opening 29 is formed in such a size that even if the tapping part 21 moves slightly, the screw hole 22 faces the door sash 28 side.

The boss 24 is inserted into the opening 29 with a gap C.

A through hole 32 is formed in the door sash 28 at a position corresponding to the screw hole 22 of the tapping component 21, into which the head 31 of the mounting screw 30 is inserted. This through hole 3
From 2 to the screw hole 22 of the tapping part 21, insert the mounting screw 30.
are screwed together and tightened, and the rear end 18 of the molding 17 is fixed to the part 2 of the cloth 1 of the door 1, and the mounting screw 3
0's head 31 is covered by a weather strip 33. Of course, the front end of the molding 17 is also attached in the same manner.

Next, the operation of the end attachment device for the molding 17 having such a configuration will be explained. First, the tapping parts 21 are placed inside each of the front and rear ends 18 of the molding 17.
is arranged in a state where it is supported by a spring piece 27. This mall 1
7 to the waist portion 2 of the door 1, and the middle portion of the molding 17 can be removed to the door outer panel 4 using a clip (not shown) or the like. Thereafter, the front and rear ends of this molding 17 are attached, but they can be removed as follows.

That is, the mounting screw 30 is inserted into the through hole 3 as shown in FIG.
Insert from 2. Then, if the axis of the mounting screw 30 and the axis of the screw hole 22 are slightly misaligned,
enters the guide tapered part 23 of the tapping part 21, the tapping part 21 is moved in alignment with this leading part, the boss 24 moves within the opening 29, and the mounting screw 30
With the axis of the molding 17 aligned with the axis of the screw hole 22, screw the mounting screw 30 into the screw hole 22 of the tapping part 21 and tighten, so that the inner side part 25 of the molding 17 comes into contact with the tapping part 21. The rear end portion 18 of the molding 17 is attached by being sandwiched between the surface 26 and the door sash 28. After that, if you attach the weather strip 33 to the door sash 28,
The head 31 of the mounting screw 30 is covered with a weather strip 33. The front end of the molding 17 can be removed in the same manner.

Even if the formation position of the through hole 32 etc. deviates from the designed position, that is, if a molding error occurs, the tapping part 21 will move and the mounting screw 3 will be removed as described above.
0 and the axis of the screw hole 22 can be easily aligned,
The error will be absorbed.

Moreover, since the molding 17 is clamped and fixed between the tapping part 21 and the door sash 28 by tightening with the mounting screw 30, the molding 17 is fixed more firmly than the conventional one. Moreover, since the head 31 of the mounting screw 3o is covered with the weather strip 33, the appearance can be maintained. Moreover, since the end cap 2o only wraps around the terminal 19 of the molding 17, it is only necessary to overlap the molding 17 to the extent that it can prevent it from falling off, thereby reducing the size and giving a sense of continuity to the molding 17. The appearance quality can be significantly improved.

(ΦAs has been described in detail, the present invention has the advantage of being able to securely and reliably fix the end of the molding, as well as having excellent appearance quality.
