Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for boxes such as audio equipment installed below the instrument panel in front of the driver's seat of an automobile.

Conventionally, when installing audio equipment such as a car radio or car stereo below the instrument panel in front of the driver's seat in a car, the outer case of the audio equipment or the boxes (console box) that housed the audio equipment were used. ) was fixed to a part of the instrument panel mainly by screws or other methods. That is, it is relatively troublesome to attach the case, box, etc. of such equipment.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and aims to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a mounting structure for boxes that can be easily attached and detached.

That is, in the case of installing boxes such as equipment below the instrument panel of an automobile, the present invention arranges a mounting plate parallel to the understay fixed to the frame and the box to be mounted, and attaches the mounting plate to both wing parts. A through hole and an insertion part are respectively provided in the box, and a mounting plate is fixed to the understay in the center part, and an insertion part and a locking part are provided on the top surface of the box to respectively engage the through hole and the insertion part of the mounting plate. This is a mounting structure for boxes, which is characterized by having a section.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In Figure 1, 1 is a frame fixed to the vehicle body on both left and right sides, 2 is an understay fixed to this frame 1 by means such as welding, 3 is a mounting plate fixed to this understay 2, and 4 is a mounting plate. Box 5 indicates a car radio housed in box 4.

The understay 2 is formed to have a U-shaped cross section, and a plurality of nuts 8 are fixed along the front-rear direction of the vehicle by means such as welding.

The mounting plate 3 is provided with a plurality of through holes 10 at positions corresponding to the nuts 8 of the under stay 2, and protrusions 11 are provided on both sides of the through holes 10 to protrude in the front-rear direction at intervals corresponding to the width of the under stay 2. be. Reference numeral 12 denotes both wing parts that are configured one step lower than the central part where the protrusion 11 is provided, and the both wing parts 12 are provided with gourd-shaped through holes 13, and furthermore, the outer rear ends of both wing parts 12 are provided with a difference. A recessed portion 14 is provided respectively. The gourd-shaped through hole 13 is formed by connecting a circular large diameter part 15 and a small diameter part 16, respectively, as shown in FIG. Further, the insertion portion 14 has a curved cross section. 17 is a mounting nut to the instrument panel.

The box 4 is the upper surface of the box 4, and the mounting plate 3
A protruding insertion portion 20 is provided on the top at a position corresponding to the through hole 13, and a locking portion 26 is provided at a position corresponding to the insertion portion 14, respectively. The insertion portion 20 is inserted into the large diameter portion 15 of the through hole 13 of the mounting plate 3.
It is provided with a groove 21 (see FIG. 4) which is smaller and has a larger diameter than the small diameter portion 16 and has a slightly smaller diameter than the small diameter portion 16. The locking portion 26 has a U-shaped cross section as shown in FIG.
It is formed so that the insertion part 14 can be inserted therein.

Assembly is done in the following manner. First, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG.
through it and screw it into the nut 8 to fix the mounting plate 3 to the understay 2.

Next, the box 4 containing the car radio 5 is lifted upward from the bottom and the insertion part 20 is inserted into the large diameter part 15 of the through hole 13 on the mounting plate 3, so that the top surface of the box 4 is placed on the mounting plate 3. After coming into almost contact with the lower surfaces of both wing portions 12, it is horizontally moved forward (in the direction of arrow F). As a result, as shown in FIG.
The periphery of the small diameter portion 16 of the through hole 13 fits into the groove 21 of the box 4, and the insertion portion 14 at the outer rear end of the mounting plate 3 fits into the locking portion 26 of the box 4 as shown in FIG. , box 4 is fixed. That is, align the box 4 with the mounting part and lift it up.
Installation is completed by simply pushing it forward.

As described above, according to the mounting structure of the present invention, when installing boxes of audio equipment, it is possible to easily mount the boxes without the need for screws using tools as in the past. It can be configured compactly and stylishly without protruding from the side of the boxes.

Furthermore, even if an occupant collides with the box due to a collision, etc., the groove diameter of the insertion section and the strength of the locking section are set appropriately so that it will not be damaged. This can absorb the impact of a collision and protect the occupants.
