Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a positioning jig for a panel material, and more particularly to a jig for positioning a panel material necessary for assembling the panel material into an attachment opening of a main body.

Generally, when assembling a panel material into a mounting opening of a main body, it is necessary to position the panel material with respect to the mounting opening in order to prevent the panel material from shifting in its mounting position.

As a conventional positioning structure for panel materials,
Taking as an example a case where a window panel P as a panel material is assembled into an installation opening K of a back door D as a main body, as shown in FIGS. The locating pin 1 is fixed with adhesive, while a locating hole 3 corresponding to the locating pin 1 is bored in the mounting flange 2 provided at the periphery of the mounting opening K, and the locating pin 1 is inserted into the locating hole 3. There is one in which the window panel P is positioned in the mounting opening K by using the mounting opening K.

However, in such a conventional window panel positioning structure, since the locate pin 1 is pre-assembled on the window panel P side,
If a plurality of window panels P are overlapped when stocking, the window panel P becomes bulky due to the presence of the locating pin 1.
This causes a problem that the transport efficiency and storage efficiency of the window panel P are reduced. Also, when assembling the window panel P, locate the hole 3 on the vehicle body side.
Since the locate pin 1 must be inserted into the locating hole 3, the positioning of the locating hole 3 and the locating pin 1 becomes relatively troublesome. Furthermore, when the panel material is transparent like the window panel P described above, the periphery of the back surface of the window panel P is generally masked in order to hide the area around the mounting flange 2 from the outside. At this time,
In order to hide the locate pin 1 from the outside, a ceramic print 4, which is an adhesive that also serves as a masking agent, is applied to the periphery of the back surface of the window panel P in advance.
It is necessary to install the locate pin 1 after performing the above steps, but in order to ensure the fixation of the locate pin 1, it is necessary to wait until the ceramic print 4 etc. are completely cured. To attach P, it was necessary to apply Ceramic Print 4 again, and in the end,
Since the ceramic print or the like has to be applied twice, there is also the problem that the cost of the ceramic print or other materials increases.

The present invention was developed based on the above-mentioned viewpoints, and its purpose is to eliminate the mounting opening of the main body without impairing the transport efficiency and storage efficiency of panel materials, and without requiring any effort. To provide a positioning jig for a panel material that can easily position the panel material.

The gist of the present invention is that the mounting base is removably attached to the back side of the panel material;
A guide that is fixed to the mounting base and engages with the mounting opening edge of the main body to which the panel material is assembled, and a positioning lever that is movably provided to the mounting base and sets the position of the guide from the end surface of the panel material. This is a positioning jig for panel materials.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 to 8, positioning jigs G are attached to both sides and the bottom of the back surface of the window panel P as a panel material, and this window panel P is equipped with the positioning jigs G. It is designed to be positioned and fixed in the mounting opening K of the backdoor D through the opening.

In this embodiment, the positioning jig G is
As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, it has a mounting base 10 that is detachably attached to the back surface of the window panel P, and this mounting base 10 has a cup-shaped base 11 that opens upward. , this base 11
is attached to the opening edge of the window panel P.
It is composed of a rubber suction cup 12 that closes the opening of the base 11 while maintaining an airtight space between the suction cup 12 and the base 11. It is connected to the base 11 via a connecting rod (not shown) that moves relatively.
When the operating lever 13 is set to the position shown by the imaginary line, the suction cup 12 is pulled by the connecting rod and placed in the non-adsorption position shown by the imaginary line, and when the operating lever 13 is set to the position shown by the solid line, it is deviated from the non-adsorption position. It is arranged at a suction position shown by a dotted line and away from the window panel P surface.

Further, a support piece 15 is provided projecting from the lower part of the base 11, and a guide 17 is fixed to this support piece 15 via an L-shaped attachment piece 16. This guide 17 is arranged to extend vertically from the back surface of the window panel P, and the outer surface of this guide 17 is a contact surface against which the end edge of the mounting flange 2 of the mounting opening K comes into contact. , this guide 1
A guide tapered surface 17a that is inclined inward of the window panel P is formed from the outer center of the window panel 7 to the tip thereof. The end of the guide 17 on the side of the window panel P comes into contact with the back surface of the window panel P, and the outside end of the guide 17 on the side of the window panel P has a gap between it and the ceramic print 4 of the window panel P. A notch 18 is formed to ensure a gap.

Furthermore, a window panel P is attached to the support piece 15.
A positioning lever 19 is attached to set the position of the guide 17 from the end surface. , the positioning lever 19 rotates in a position that does not interfere with the guide 17.
A projecting piece portion 21 that comes into contact with the end surface of the window panel P is provided protrudingly at the tip of the window panel P. The radially extending portion of the shaft pin 20 of the positioning lever 19 is connected and fixed in a divisible manner. That is, one lever piece 19a is provided with a screw hole (not shown), and the other lever piece 19b is provided with a long hole 22 extending in the radial direction of the shaft pin 20.
Both lever pieces 19a and 19b overlap each other and are connected and fixed by inserting and engaging adjustment screws 23 into the screw holes and elongated holes 22. Therefore, due to the presence of the elongated hole 22, the length of the radially extending portion of the shaft pin 20 of the positioning lever 19 can be adjusted. can be set to any value. Also, a cam 2 of a desired shape is attached to the shaft pin 20 of the positioning lever 19.
A leaf spring 25 having one end fixed to the support piece 15 is in elastic contact with the cam 24. Due to the click action of the leaf spring 25 and the cam 24, the positioning lever 19 is The position where the protruding piece 21 abuts against the end surface of the window panel P (the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. (positions indicated by imaginary lines in the figure).

Therefore, when assembling the window panel P into the mounting opening K using the panel material positioning jig G according to this embodiment, first the positioning jig G is attached to both sides and the bottom of the back surface of the window panel P. Install. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5, the positioning lever 19 whose length has been adjusted in advance is set to the state shown by the solid line, and the operating lever 13 of the mounting base 10 is set to the state shown by the imaginary line, and then the window While the projecting piece 21 of the positioning lever 19 is brought into contact with the end face of the panel P, the window panel P
The suction cup 12 of the mounting base 10 is brought into contact with the back surface of the holder, and the operating lever 13 is moved to the state shown by the solid line. In this state, the suction cup 12 moves from the non-suction position to the suction position, and the space between the suction cup 12 and the surface of the window panel P becomes a negative pressure state, so that the suction cup 12 suctions to the window panel P. The positioning jig G is assembled to the window panel P. Furthermore, the guide 17 is also set at a position separated from the end surface of the window panel P by a predetermined distance l. At this time, ceramic print 4, etc., which is an adhesive that also serves as masking, is applied to the periphery of the back surface of the window panel P, but due to the presence of the notch 18 of the guide 17, the guide 17 directly contacts the ceramic print 4, etc. There is no risk that this will happen, and a situation where the ceramic print 4 etc. will peel off will not occur.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5, when the positioning lever 19 is rotated to the position shown by the imaginary line, the positioning lever 19 is set to a position where it does not cover the lower part of the guide 17. In this state, when attempting to assemble the window panel P into the mounting opening K, as shown in FIG. The guide tapered surface 17a of the guide 17 will come into contact with the edge of the mounting flange 2, but when the window panel P is further pressed against the mounting opening K, the guide tapered surface 17a of the guide 17 will come into contact with the edge of the mounting flange 2. Since the window panel P moves while sliding, it is guided to a predetermined position while floating in the surface direction, and as shown in FIG. The panel P is positioned without wobbling, and the window panel P comes into contact with the mounting flange 2 via the ceramic print 4 or the like.

Thereafter, when the ceramic print 4 and the like are cured, the window panel P is assembled at a predetermined position in the mounting opening K. At this stage, when the operating lever 13 of the mounting base 10 is operated to set the suction cup 12 to the non-adsorption position, the positioning jig G can be removed from the window panel P as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. Become,
There is no possibility that the positioning jig G will remain on the periphery of the window panel P.

In this embodiment, the window panel P
During installation, the window panel P is simply fitted into the mounting opening K, and the window panel P is naturally positioned as described above by the engagement between the guide 17 and the mounting flange 2. This eliminates the need for the conventional work of aligning the locating pin 1 on the window panel P with the locating hole 3 on the vehicle body, thereby simplifying the positioning work of the window panel P. In addition, since it is no longer necessary to protrude the locating pin 1 on the window panel P side, there is also no need to apply a double layer of ceramic print 4 or the like to hide the locating pin 1.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the mounting base 10
uses the suction cup 12, but is not necessarily limited to this, and the window panel P
As long as it can be detachably attached to the device, the design may be changed as appropriate. Further, the specific shape of the guide 17 is not limited to that shown in the above embodiments, and can of course be selected as appropriate.
Furthermore, although the positioning lever 19 is also rotatably attached to the mounting base 10, the design may be changed as appropriate as long as it is movably attached. Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the present invention is applied to the positioning of the window panel P of the back door D, but the present invention is not limited to this and can be widely applied to the positioning of panel materials. Of course.

As explained above, according to the panel material positioning jig according to the present invention, since it is removably attached to the panel material, there is no need to worry about the panel material becoming bulky when transporting or storing the panel material. Not only can the transport efficiency and storage efficiency of panel materials be improved compared to the conventional method, but
Since the position of the guide can be easily set to the desired position using the positioning lever, it is possible to easily position the panel material in the mounting opening of the main body without requiring any effort. The tool can be removed, so
It is also possible to maintain good appearance around the panel material.
