Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a car stereo fixing device in which a mounting hole is formed in a vehicle body side panel, and a car stereo main body is inserted and fixed into the mounting hole.

Conventionally, in order to attach a car stereo to the car body side panel, a mounting hole that matches the external shape of the car stereo body is drilled in the car body side panel, a box-shaped holder that holds the car stereo body is fixed to this hole, and the hole-shaped holder that holds the car stereo body is fixed there. A structure is adopted in which the car stereo body is fitted.

This configuration requires a complicated mounting structure for the holder, and if the vehicle body side panels have different thicknesses, the mounting may be difficult or may not be possible.

This invention was made based on the above circumstances, and provides a car stereo fixing device that has an extremely simple configuration, is easy to install, and has a holder that can be installed depending on the thickness of the vehicle body side panel. This is what I am trying to do.

This invention will be explained in detail below based on the illustrated embodiments. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a vehicle body side panel, in which a rectangular mounting hole 2 for a car stereo is bored. The car stereo body 3 has a box-shaped holder 4 that fits into the mounting hole 2.
The holder 4 has a flange 4a projecting outward on its front edge, and three sets of cut and raised pieces 4b, 4c and 4d with different tip spacings on the upper and lower surfaces of the body 4e. is forming.

In such a configuration, when the holder 4 is inserted into the mounting hole 2 from the front, the flange 4
At the time when a touches the vehicle body side panel 1, the cut and raised piece 4b corresponding to the thickness of the panel 1 (in this embodiment, the cut and raised piece 4b corresponds to the thickness of the panel 1)
corresponds thereto, and the other cut-and-raised pieces 4c and 4d are not working) whose tips are locked to the back surface of the panel 1. With the holder 4 fixed to the panel 1 in this way, the car stereo main body 3 is inserted and fixed into the holder 4.

In addition, when the holder 4 is inserted into the mounting hole 2, the locking cut-and-raised piece 4b and the like elastically bend inward, and after passing through the mounting hole 2, protrude outward. If there is slight variation in the thickness of the panel 1 and the closest matching piece, such as the cut-and-beveled piece 4b, cannot be removed from the mounting hole 2, use the tip of a screwdriver to remove the cut-and-beveled piece from inside the holder 4. 4b or the like to forcibly protrude to the rear side of the panel 1. Once protruded to the rear side of the panel 1, the cut and raised pieces 4 press against the back surface of the panel 1 due to their elasticity, and clamp the panel 1 between them and the flange 4a.

As described in detail above, this invention has a flange that engages with the edge of the mounting hole on the box-shaped holder that holds the car stereo main body, and a plurality of flange that engages with the edge of the mounting hole. Since a pair of locking cut-and-raised pieces are provided protruding from the outer wall surface of the body of the holder, it is possible to adapt to various panel thicknesses by selecting cut-and-raised pieces, and simply attach the cut-and-raised pieces to the mounting hole from the front. The holder can be fixed to the vehicle body side panel with a simple operation of pushing the holder in. All that is left is to fit the stereo body into the holder, making installation easy. Since the strip is simply provided by press working, there is no need for separate parts unlike when screwing, and practical effects such as lower processing costs can be achieved.
