Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for attaching an automobile garnish to a vehicle body.

First, such a conventional mounting device will be explained.

Pillar 1.2.3 that supports the roof of a car (Figure 1)
As a device for attaching the garnish to the garnish, a screw 4 or a clip 6 with an elastic material 5 at the tip (Fig. 2) is used.
There is.

When using these screws 4 or clips 6,
A hole 8 is formed in the garnish 7, and a screw 4 or a clip 6 passes through the hole 8 of the garnish 7 and is fixed to the body, thereby attaching the garnish 7 to the body.

The heads of these screws 4 or clips 6 are exposed, which has the disadvantage of spoiling the aesthetic appearance.

In addition, in the clip 11 shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a projection (boss) 1 of a predetermined size is provided on the back surface of the garnish 12.
3 is formed, the boss 13 is inserted into the U-shaped groove of the clip 11, the inward claw 14 fixes the boss 13, a hole 16 is formed in the body 15, and the clip 11 is pushed into the hole 16. , outward indentation 17 and flange 18
The edge of the hole 16 is sandwiched between them, and the garnish 12 is thus fixed to the body 15.

For lip 11 like this, first add garnish 1.
2 is fixed to the body 15, it may be difficult to remove the garnish 12 from the body 15, or the boss 13 may be pulled out from the clip 11 against the claw 14, causing the garnish 12 to be removed even if it is removed. There is a drawback that the boss 13 is damaged by the pawl 14 and it is difficult to fix the boss 13 again with the pawl 14.

An object of the present invention is to provide an attachment device that eliminates the attachment device from being exposed on the surface of a lining garnish and that allows the same garnish to be repeatedly attached to and removed from a body.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

The attachment device of the present invention, i.e. the clip 21, is integrally made of spring steel material.

The clip 21 has a groove wall 22 with a U-shaped cross section consisting of sides and a bottom.

A U-shaped outwardly extending flange 24 is formed at the top of the groove wall 22 .

The groove wall 22 is formed by bending a strip-shaped leaf spring.

The two springs 25 provided on the outer side of the groove wall 22 have an engaging portion 26 that is recessed inward in a U shape, and a protrusion portion 27 that projects outward from the side of the groove wall 22 in the U shape. .

The protruding part 27 is coupled to the bottom of the groove wall 22, and the engaging part 26 extends above the protruding part 27.
It is bent to the side opposite to 7 and further bent outward in a substantially U-shape.

The spring 25 is formed by being cut and raised from the groove wall 22 at the center of the groove wall 22 in the length direction.

Near the top of the side portion of the groove wall 22, four pawls 28 are provided that project diagonally inward of the U-shape and toward the bottom of the groove wall 22 by a predetermined distance.

The pawl 28 is also formed by being cut and raised from the side of the groove wall 22.

A boss 32 as a plate-like projection is provided on the back side of the garnish 31.
is formed.

The boss 32 is inserted into the groove wall 22, and the inserted boss 22
The pawl 28 prevents it from being pulled out.

A hole 34 for receiving the clip 21 is formed in the body 33.

The clip 21 with the boss 32 inserted is pushed into the hole 34.

When the clip 21 is pushed into the hole 34, the protrusion 2
5 is elastically bent inward into the U-shape, and the edge 35 of the hole 34 is engaged with the engaging portion 26, thus completing the installation of the garnish 31.

After completion, the protruding portion 27 protrudes outward from the edge 35 of the hole 34 substantially in a U-shape.

When the garnish 31 is removed, the protrusion 27 is elastically deflected inwardly into the U shape and the clip 2 is removed from the hole 34.
1 and the garnish 31 is pulled out.

The fixing force between the boss 32 and the pawl 28 is large, so when the garnish 31 is removed, the boss 32 is attached to the groove wall 22.
The clip 21 and the garnish 31 are pulled out together without being pulled out.

As described above, according to the present invention, the attachment device is prevented from being exposed to the outer surface of the garnish, and the garnish can be attached to and removed from the body 33 by repeating one horn garnish.

In the present invention, the pawl 28 is provided on the side of the groove wall instead of the spring 25 that moves when moving in and out of the hole 34.
Fixation to the boss 32 on the mounting device is ensured.
