Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a clip for attaching a decorative plate to an automobile in a relatively small space.

Conventionally, decorative plates have been installed on the back side of the decorative plate so that they do not appear on the surface of the decorative plate, since screws have generally been used to attach decorative plates to narrow areas that require interior decoration of automobile bodies. It is troublesome to adjust the overlap between the screw member and the mounting position of the body, and a lot of work is required for tightening and fixing, making it impossible to quickly perform the mounting work of the decorative plate.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned inconveniences and allows the decorative plate to be easily adhesively fixed to the body without using screws, or the decorative plate can be attached with an arbitrary gap between it and the body. He devised a mounting clip that made it possible to do so.

An example of the implementation of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings. A thin mesh board material of a certain width or an elastic board material having the same effect is used, the central part of which is folded back into a small arc shape 1, and an expansion interval 2 is established between them. The U-shaped raised engagement parts 3, 3 are formed opposite each other, and small latch pieces are cut out and opened shallowly outward on both sides of the lower part of the raised engagement parts 3, 3. 4, 4, 4, 4 are provided, and the ends of the raised engaging parts 3, 3 are each bent outwardly into a square shape to form outwardly expanding inclined parts 5, 5, and the lower end is bent from the above-mentioned small arc shape 1. A clip 7 is formed which can be formed into an inwardly inclined engagement slope 6, 6 which projects slightly downward.

In addition, on the back side of the decorative plate 8 made of synthetic resin material,
A small latch piece 4 that matches the width of the clip 7 and that faces the lower part of the raised engagement portions 3, 3 of the clip 7;
A mounting portion 10 is formed integrally with a fitting hole 9 having a spacing narrower than the spacing between the tips of the cylindrical parts 4 and 4.

Then, the raised engaging parts 3, 3 of the clip 7 are press-fitted into the fitting holes 9 of the attachment parts 10 of the decorative plate 8 while narrowing the expansion interval 2, and the raised engaging parts 3, 3 are fitted. The tips of the cut-and-raised small retaining pieces 4, 4 at the bottom of the above-mentioned insertion hole 9
The clip 7 is fixed to the back surface of the decorative plate 8 by making strong pressure contact with the inner surface of the decorative plate 8.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be explained. Since the tip of the cut-and-raised latch piece 4 at the lower part of the raised engagement part 3 is strongly pressed against the inner surface of the insertion hole 9, the clip 7 is inserted into the middle part. The raising engagement part 3 is connected to the mounting part 1 of the decorative plate 8.
The clip 7 is firmly held in the insertion hole 9 of 0, and the outwardly expanding inclined portion 5 and the inwardly engaging inclined portion 6 of the clip 7 bent into a rectangular shape on the outside of the mounting portion 10 form an inwardly inclined engaging inclined portion. The lower end of the portion 6 is kept close to the back surface of the decorative plate 8 facing the mounting portion 10 and compressible against elasticity.

Therefore, the decorative plate 8 is attached so that the tip of the clip 7 held on the back surface of the decorative plate 8 as described above is exposed to the engaging through hole 12 provided in the iron plate 11 of the body, which is the member to be attached to the automobile. When the clip 7 is pressed toward the body of the automobile, the clip 7 passes through the engaging hole 12 while being pressed toward the mounting portion 10 by the edge of the engaging hole 12, and the clip 7 passes through the engaging hole 12. As shown in FIG. 3, with the back side of the decorative plate 8 in contact with the iron plate body 11, the lower end of the inwardly inclined engagement slope part 6 of the clip 7 is elastically engaged with the edge of the engagement through hole 12 of the iron plate body 11, The decorative plate 8 can be securely connected to the iron plate body 11 in the narrow part of the automobile body.

In addition, if the lower end of the inwardly inclined engagement slope part 6 of the clip 7 is further bent outward to provide a bend receiving part 13 as in the other embodiment shown in FIG. The folding receiving part 13 at the end of the inwardly inclined engaging inclined part 5 of the clip 7 has the raised engaging part 3 press-fitted into the fitting hole 9 of the mounting part 10 provided at an appropriate height. As shown in the figure, the iron plate body 11 is locked to the decorative plate 8.
and can be connected with a certain distance a between them.

Incidentally, reference numeral 14 in the drawings indicates a pressing protrusion provided on the outside of the opposing raised engaging portions 3 of the clip 7, and if such a pressing protrusion 14 is provided,
As shown in FIG. 7, the pressure contact of the pressing protrusion 14 with the inner surface of the insertion hole 9, together with the crimping of the tip of the cut-and-raised latch piece 4 to the inner surface of the insertion hole 9, further strengthens the structure. It is possible to attach the clip 7 to the decorative plate 8 at the same time, and also to connect the upper ends of the opposing raised engagement parts 3 of the clip 7 to keep the tip of the clip 7 as narrow as possible. It is possible to further facilitate insertion into the engaging through hole 12 of the iron plate body 11 of the body, and the locking protrusion as shown by reference numeral 15 is attached to the upper side edge of the raised engaging portion 3 of the clip 7. If it is provided in the mounting part 1 of the decorative plate 8 as shown in FIG.
The locking protrusion 15 on the upper side edge of the raised engagement part 3 of the clip 7 press-fitted into the insertion hole 9 of It is even more convenient to be able to connect and hold it.

The present invention is as described above, and the height of the clip 7 protruding from the back surface of the decorative plate can be reduced.
Moreover, the clip 7 attached to the back surface of the decorative plate 8 can be easily attached to the engagement through hole 12 provided in a relatively small space in the car body without using special tools or screw members. Engage decorative plate 8
can be installed smoothly and quickly on the car body.
