Description

車両天井構造Vehicle ceiling structure
　本発明は、サンルーフを備えた車両における車両天井構造に関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle ceiling structure in a vehicle having a sunroof.
　サンルーフを備えた車両の天井部において、室内の内装材である天井材と車体を構成するボデー材とは、例えば、それぞれに形成されたサンルーフ用の開口部の周縁部において、両者の間に両者を保持するための部材（リテーナー）を配設することによって固定し、組み付けられている。 In the ceiling part of a vehicle equipped with a sunroof, the ceiling material that is an interior material of the interior and the body material that constitutes the vehicle body are, for example, both at the peripheral part of the sunroof opening formed between them. It is fixed and assembled by disposing a member (retainer) for holding.
　従来から、天井材とボデー材とを固定する様々な車両天井構造が知られている。例えば、樹脂等からなるリテーナーに対して天井材を接着・溶着し、それをボデー材に組み付けて固定する構造が知られている。また、特許文献１には、車体パネルに取り付けた金属クリップに自動車用内装部品を差し込んで固定する構造が開示されている。 Conventionally, various vehicle ceiling structures for fixing a ceiling material and a body material are known. For example, a structure is known in which a ceiling material is bonded and welded to a retainer made of resin or the like, and is assembled and fixed to a body material. Patent Document 1 discloses a structure in which an automobile interior part is inserted into and fixed to a metal clip attached to a vehicle body panel.
特開２００４－９０７９０号公報JP 2004-90790 A
　しかしながら、従来の構造では次のような問題があった。すなわち、天井材を接着・溶着する構造では、天井材の端部の剥がれや接着剤の汚れ等が露出して外観意匠性が低下するという問題が生じていた。また、金属クリップを用いた構造では、車体パネルに取り付けた金属クリップに天井材の端部を差し込むため、天井材の端部を正確に位置合わせ等して組み付ける必要があり、作業性の低下を招いていた。 However, the conventional structure has the following problems. That is, in the structure in which the ceiling material is bonded and welded, there has been a problem that the appearance design is deteriorated due to the peeling of the end of the ceiling material or the contamination of the adhesive. In addition, in a structure using a metal clip, the end of the ceiling material is inserted into the metal clip attached to the vehicle body panel, so the end of the ceiling material needs to be accurately aligned and assembled, which reduces workability. I was invited.
　本発明は、かかる従来の問題点に鑑みてなされたもので、簡易な構造であり、組み付け作業が容易な車両天井構造を提供しようとするものである。 The present invention has been made in view of such conventional problems, and is intended to provide a vehicle ceiling structure that has a simple structure and is easy to assemble.
　本発明は、サンルーフ用の天井開口部が形成された天井材と、同じくサンルーフ用のボデー開口部が形成されたボデー材とを、上記天井開口部及び上記ボデー開口部の前方又は後方の周縁部において上記天井材と上記ボデー材との間に配設されたリテーナーによって固定する車両天井構造であって、
　上記リテーナーは、上記天井材を嵌合させるための天井嵌合部と上記ボデー材を嵌合させるためのボデー嵌合部とを有しており、
　上記天井嵌合部には、上記天井開口部の周縁に設けた上記天井材の天井端部が嵌合され、上記ボデー嵌合部には、上記ボデー開口部の周縁に設けた上記ボデー材のボデー端部が嵌合されていることを特徴とする車両天井構造にある。 The present invention relates to a ceiling material in which a ceiling opening for a sunroof is formed, and a body material in which a body opening for a sunroof is also formed, and the peripheral edge portion in front of or behind the body opening and the body opening. In the vehicle ceiling structure fixed by a retainer disposed between the ceiling material and the body material,
The retainer has a ceiling fitting part for fitting the ceiling material and a body fitting part for fitting the body material,
The ceiling fitting portion is fitted with the ceiling end portion of the ceiling material provided at the periphery of the ceiling opening portion, and the body fitting portion is provided with the body material provided at the periphery of the body opening portion. The vehicle ceiling structure is characterized in that the end of the body is fitted.
　本発明の車両天井構造において、上記天井材と上記ボデー材との間に配設された両者を固定するための上記リテーナーは、上記天井材及び上記ボデー材をそれぞれ嵌合させるための上記天井嵌合部及び上記ボデー嵌合部を有している。すなわち、上記リテーナーは、上記天井材及び上記ボデー材をそれぞれ嵌合させることができるよう構成されている。そのため、上記リテーナーに対して上記天井材及び上記ボデー材を従来のような接着、溶着等の作業を行うことなく容易に組み付けることができる。
　また、上記天井材の上記天井端部と上記リテーナー、あるいは上記ボデー材の上記ボデー端部と上記リテーナーを接着・溶着等する必要がないため、上記天井端部や上記ボデー端部の外観意匠性を向上させることができる。 In the vehicle ceiling structure according to the present invention, the retainer for fixing both the ceiling material and the body material, the ceiling fitting for fitting the ceiling material and the body material respectively. It has a joint part and the body fitting part. That is, the retainer is configured to be able to fit the ceiling material and the body material, respectively. Therefore, the ceiling material and the body material can be easily assembled to the retainer without performing conventional operations such as adhesion and welding.
In addition, since it is not necessary to bond or weld the ceiling end portion of the ceiling material and the retainer, or the body end portion of the body material and the retainer, appearance design of the ceiling end portion or the body end portion is possible. Can be improved.
　また、上記リテーナーを上記構成とすることにより、例えば、予め上記天井端部を上記天井嵌合部に嵌合させた後、その状態のまま上記ボデー嵌合部に上記ボデー端部を嵌合させて組み付けることができる。すなわち、上記天井材の組み付けは、上記天井端部を上記天井嵌合部に嵌合させるだけでよく、非常に容易となる。そのため、従来のように、上記天井材を正確に位置合わせする等して組み付ける必要がなくなり、作業性を向上させることができる。 Further, by configuring the retainer with the above-described configuration, for example, after the ceiling end portion is fitted in the ceiling fitting portion in advance, the body end portion is fitted into the body fitting portion in that state. Can be assembled. That is, the assembling of the ceiling material is very easy by merely fitting the ceiling end portion to the ceiling fitting portion. Therefore, unlike the prior art, it is not necessary to assemble the ceiling material by accurately aligning it, and workability can be improved.
　このように、本発明によれば、簡易な構造であり、組み付け作業が容易な車両天井構造を提供することができる。 Thus, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a vehicle ceiling structure that has a simple structure and can be easily assembled.

　本発明において、上記リテーナーの上記ボデー嵌合部は、上記リテーナーの左右方向において複数箇所に分かれて形成されていることが好ましい。
　この場合には、上記リテーナーと上記ボデー材とを容易に安定して組み付けることができる。 In this invention, it is preferable that the said body fitting part of the said retainer is divided and formed in multiple places in the left-right direction of the said retainer.
In this case, the retainer and the body material can be easily and stably assembled.
　また、上記リテーナーの上記天井嵌合部は、上記リテーナーの左右方向全長に渡って形成されていることが好ましい。
　この場合には、上記リテーナーの上記天井嵌合部において上記天井材の上記天井端部を十分かつ確実に固定することができる。
　また、上記リテーナーの上記天井嵌合部を上記構成とすることにより、例えば、上記天井嵌合部に嵌合された上記天井端部の端面を上記天井嵌合部で覆うことによって露出させないようにすることができる（後述する実施例の図２～図４参照）。これにより、上記天井開口部及び上記ボデー開口部の周縁部（サンルーフの周縁部）の外観意匠性を向上させることができる。 Moreover, it is preferable that the said ceiling fitting part of the said retainer is formed over the left-right direction full length of the said retainer.
In this case, the ceiling end portion of the ceiling material can be sufficiently and reliably fixed at the ceiling fitting portion of the retainer.
Further, by configuring the ceiling fitting portion of the retainer to have the above configuration, for example, the end surface of the ceiling end portion fitted to the ceiling fitting portion is not exposed by being covered with the ceiling fitting portion.

It has a shape. And the ceiling fitting part 41 is provided in the recessed part formed above among this S-shaped part of a cross section, and the body fitting part 42 is provided in the recessed part formed below.
　また、同図に示すごとく、天井開口部２０及びボデー開口部３０の上方には、天井開口部２０及びボデー開口部３０を覆うように透明のガラス板よりなるスライドルーフ６１が配設されている。本例のスライドルーフ６１は、天井開口部２０及びボデー開口部３０を開閉可能に構成され、車体の外側をスライドするアウタースライド型のものである。 As shown in the figure, a slide roof 61 made of a transparent glass plate is disposed above the ceiling opening 20 and the body opening 30 so as to cover the ceiling opening 20 and the body opening 30. . The slide roof 61 of this example is configured to be able to open and close the ceiling opening 20 and the body opening 30 and is of an outer slide type that slides outside the vehicle body.
　また、スライドルーフ６１の前方側には、チルトルーフ６２が配設されている。チルトルーフ６２は、その後端部を上下に移動させて開閉可能に構成されている。
　また、スライドルーフ６１の下方側には、日除け用のサンシェード６３が配設されている。サンシェード６３は、前後方向に移動して天井開口部２０及びボデー開口部３０を開閉可能に構成されている。 A tilt roof 62 is disposed on the front side of the slide roof 61. The tilt roof 62 is configured to be opened and closed by moving its rear end portion up and down.
A sunshade 63 for awning is disposed below the slide roof 61. The sunshade 63 is configured to be able to open and close the ceiling opening 20 and the body opening 30 by moving in the front-rear direction.
　なお、本例では、天井材２は、上述のごとく、基材２８と表皮２９とを積層して構成されており、基材２８はポリプロピレン、ポリウレタン、ポリエチレンテレフタレート等の熱可塑性樹脂と木質繊維、ガラス繊維等の繊維との混合物からなり、表皮２９はポリエステル等の合成樹脂材からなる。また、ボデー材３は、鋼板よりなる。また、リテーナー４は、ＡＢＳ樹脂等の合成樹脂材や鋼板等の金属材料からなる。 In this example, the ceiling material 2 is configured by laminating the base material 28 and the skin 29 as described above, and the base material 28 is made of thermoplastic resin such as polypropylene, polyurethane, polyethylene terephthalate, and wood fiber, The skin 29 is made of a synthetic resin material such as polyester. The body material 3 is made of a steel plate. The retainer 4 is made of a synthetic resin material such as ABS resin or a metal material such as a steel plate.
　次に、天井材２、ボデー材３及びリテーナー４の組み付け状態について説明する。
　図３、図４に示すごとく、リテーナー４において、天井嵌合部４１には、天井材２の天井端部２３が嵌合されている。具体的には、天井材２の天井端部２３がリテーナーの天井嵌合部４１に対して前方向に向かって差し込まれている。したがって、天井端部２３の端面２３１は、リテーナー４の左右方向全長に渡って形成された天井嵌合部４１によって露出しないように覆われている。 Next, the assembled state of the ceiling material 2, the body material 3, and the retainer 4 will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, in the retainer 4, the ceiling end portion 23 of the ceiling member 2 is fitted to the ceiling fitting portion 41. Specifically, the ceiling end portion 23 of the ceiling material 2 is inserted in the forward direction with respect to the ceiling fitting portion 41 of the retainer. Accordingly, the end surface 231 of the ceiling end portion 23 is covered so as not to be exposed by the ceiling fitting portion 41 formed over the entire length of the retainer 4 in the left-right direction.
　また、同図に示すごとく、リテーナー４の左右方向に４箇所設けられたボデー嵌合部４２には、ボデー材３のボデー端部３３が嵌合されている。具体的には、ボデー材３のボデー端部３３がリテーナー４のボデー嵌合部４２に対して後方向に向かって差し込まれている。 Further, as shown in the figure, the body end portion 33 of the body material 3 is fitted to the body fitting portions 42 provided at four places in the left-right direction of the retainer 4. Specifically, the body end portion 33 of the body material 3 is inserted backward with respect to the body fitting portion 42 of the retainer 4.
　さらに、ボデー嵌合部４２には、ボデー材３のボデー端部３３が嵌合されていると共に、ボデー嵌合部４２とボデー端部３３との間の隙間を埋めるためのスペーサー材５１が配設されている。これは、ボデー材３が鋼板よりなり、ボデー嵌合部４２に嵌合させるだけではガタつきが生じ易く、十分に固定することができないからである。本例では、スペーサー材５１として不織布を用いた。 Further, the body fitting portion 42 is fitted with a body end portion 33 of the body material 3 and a spacer material 51 for filling a gap between the body fitting portion 42 and the body end portion 33. It is installed. This is because the body material 3 is made of a steel plate and is easily rattled only by being fitted to the body fitting portion 42 and cannot be sufficiently fixed. In this example, a nonwoven fabric was used as the spacer material 51.
　これに対して、天井嵌合部４１には、特にスペーサー材を設けていない。これは、天井材２が厚み方向に弾性変形可能であるため、天井嵌合部４１の開口高さを嵌入前の天井材２の厚みよりも小さくしておき、天井端部２３を天井嵌合部４２に押し込むことにより、リテーナー４と天井材２とを十分に固定することができるからである。 In contrast, the ceiling fitting portion 41 is not particularly provided with a spacer material. This is because the ceiling material 2 can be elastically deformed in the thickness direction, the opening height of the ceiling fitting portion 41 is made smaller than the thickness of the ceiling material 2 before fitting, and the ceiling end portion 23 is fitted to the ceiling. This is because the retainer 4 and the ceiling material 2 can be sufficiently fixed by being pushed into the portion 42.
　また、同図に示すごとく、天井材２及びボデー材３は、リテーナー４に対して互いに反対方向に向かって差し込まれて嵌合されている。そして、天井材２の天井端部２３とボデー材３のボデー端部３３とにより、リテーナー４を挟持する形で組み付けられている。
　また、リテーナー４の下端部は、天井材２に対して接着剤等により接着して固定されている。 Further, as shown in the figure, the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 are inserted and fitted in opposite directions to the retainer 4. Then, the retainer 4 is assembled so as to be sandwiched between the ceiling end portion 23 of the ceiling material 2 and the body end portion 33 of the body material 3.
Further, the lower end portion of the retainer 4 is fixed to the ceiling material 2 by being bonded with an adhesive or the like.
　次に、天井材２、ボデー材３及びリテーナー４の組み付け手順について説明する。
　まず、図３、図４を参照のごとく、リテーナー４の天井嵌合部４１に、天井材２の天井端部２３を前方向に向かって差し込む。このとき、天井材２をボデー開口部２０側からその前方の周縁部２０１に対して前進させるようにして組み付ける。 Next, a procedure for assembling the ceiling material 2, the body material 3, and the retainer 4 will be described.
First, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the ceiling end portion 23 of the ceiling material 2 is inserted into the ceiling fitting portion 41 of the retainer 4 in the forward direction. At this time, the ceiling material 2 is assembled so as to be advanced from the body opening 20 side to the front peripheral edge 201.
　次いで、リテーナー４の下端部を天井材２に対して接着剤等により接着する。なお、リテーナー４のボデー嵌合部４２には、スペーサー材５１となる不織布を予め配置しておく。そして、天井材２を組み付けた状態のリテーナー４のボデー嵌合部４２に、ボデー材３のボデー端部３３を後方向に向かって差し込む。 Next, the lower end of the retainer 4 is bonded to the ceiling material 2 with an adhesive or the like. In addition, the nonwoven fabric used as the spacer material 51 is previously arranged in the body fitting part 42 of the retainer 4. And the body edge part 33 of the body material 3 is inserted toward the back in the body fitting part 42 of the retainer 4 in the state where the ceiling material 2 is assembled.
　さらに、その後、リテーナー４を設けた位置以外の部位においても、アシストグリップ固定部７１、ルームランプ固定部７２、サンバイザー固定部７３等（図１参照）において、アシストグリップ、ルームランプ、サンバイザー等と共に、天井材２をボデー材３に固定する。
　以上により、天井材２、ボデー材３及びリテーナー４を組み付ける。 Furthermore, after that, also in parts other than the position where the retainer 4 is provided, the assist grip, the room lamp, the sun visor, etc. in the assist grip fixing part 71, the room lamp fixing part 72, the sun visor fixing part 73, etc. (see FIG. 1). At the same time, the ceiling material 2 is fixed to the body material 3.
The ceiling material 2, the body material 3, and the retainer 4 are assembled | attached by the above.
　次に、本例の車両天井構造１における作用効果について説明する。
　本例の天井部構造１において、天井材２とボデー材３との間に配設された両者を固定するためのリテーナー４は、天井材２及びボデー材３をそれぞれ嵌合させるための天井嵌合部４１及びボデー嵌合部４２を有している。すなわち、リテーナー４は、天井材２及びボデー材３をそれぞれ嵌合させることができるよう構成されている。そのため、リテーナー４に対して天井材２及びボデー材３を従来のような接着、溶着等の作業を行うことなく容易に組み付けることができる。
　また、天井材２の天井端部２３とリテーナー４、あるいはボデー材３のボデー端部３３とリテーナー４を接着・溶着等する必要がないため、天井端部２３やボデー端部３３の外観意匠性を向上させることができる。 Next, the effect in the vehicle ceiling structure 1 of this example is demonstrated.
In the ceiling part structure 1 of the present example, the retainer 4 for fixing the both disposed between the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 is a ceiling fitting for fitting the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 respectively. It has a joint part 41 and a body fitting part 42. That is, the retainer 4 is configured to be able to fit the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 respectively. Therefore, the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 can be easily assembled to the retainer 4 without performing conventional operations such as adhesion and welding.
Further, since it is not necessary to bond and weld the ceiling end 23 and the retainer 4 of the ceiling material 2 or the body end 33 and the retainer 4 of the body material 3, the appearance design of the ceiling end 23 and the body end 33 is achieved. Can be improved.
　また、リテーナー４を上記構成とすることにより、本例のように、予め天井端部２３を天井嵌合部４１に嵌合させた後、その状態のままボデー嵌合部４２にボデー材３を嵌合させて組み付けることができる。すなわち、天井材２の組み付けは、天井嵌合部４１に嵌合させるだけでよく、非常に容易となる。そのため、従来のように、天井材２を正確に位置合わせする等して組み付ける必要がなくなり、作業性を向上させることができる。 Moreover, by making the retainer 4 have the above-described configuration, after the ceiling end portion 23 is previously fitted to the ceiling fitting portion 41 as in this example, the body material 3 is put on the body fitting portion 42 in that state. Can be assembled and assembled. That is, the assembling of the ceiling material 2 only needs to be fitted to the ceiling fitting portion 41 and is very easy. Therefore, unlike the conventional case, there is no need to assemble the ceiling material 2 by accurately aligning the ceiling material 2, and workability can be improved.
　また、本例において、リテーナー４のボデー嵌合部４２は、リテーナー４の左右方向において複数箇所に分かれて形成されている。そのため、リテーナー４とボデー材３とを容易に安定して組み付けることができる。
　また、リテーナー４の天井嵌合部４１は、リテーナー４の左右方向全長に渡って形成されている。そのため、リテーナー４の天井嵌合部４１において天井材２の天井端部２３を十分かつ確実に固定することができる。また、本例のように、天井端部２３の端面２３１を天井嵌合部４１で覆うことによって露出させないようにすることができる。これにより、天井開口部２０の周縁部２０１（サンルーフの周縁部）の外観意匠性を向上させることができる。 Further, in this example, the body fitting portion 42 of the retainer 4 is formed at a plurality of locations in the left-right direction of the retainer 4. Therefore, the retainer 4 and the body material 3 can be easily and stably assembled.
The ceiling fitting portion 41 of the retainer 4 is formed over the entire length of the retainer 4 in the left-right direction. Therefore, the ceiling end portion 23 of the ceiling material 2 can be sufficiently and reliably fixed at the ceiling fitting portion 41 of the retainer 4. Further, as in the present example, the end surface 231 of the ceiling end portion 23 can be prevented from being exposed by covering with the ceiling fitting portion 41. Thereby, the external appearance design property of the peripheral part 201 (peripheral part of a sunroof) of the ceiling opening part 20 can be improved.
　また、天井材２の天井端部２３及びボデー材３のボデー端部３３は、それぞれリテーナー４の天井嵌合部４１及びボデー嵌合部４２に対して互いに反対方向に向かって嵌合されている。そのため、本例のように、リテーナー４に対して天井端部２３を先に嵌合させた後に、ボデー端部３３を嵌合させようとしたとき、リテーナー４が天井材２から外れてしまうという不具合を防ぐことができる。それ故、リテーナー４に対して天井材２とボデー材３とを容易かつ確実に組み付けることができ、作業性を向上させることができる。また、組み付け後も、リテーナー４が天井材２及びボデー材３から脱落し難く、安定した固定状態を保つことができる。 Further, the ceiling end portion 23 of the ceiling material 2 and the body end portion 33 of the body material 3 are fitted in opposite directions to the ceiling fitting portion 41 and the body fitting portion 42 of the retainer 4, respectively. . Therefore, as shown in this example, when the body end portion 33 is fitted after the ceiling end portion 23 is first fitted to the retainer 4, the retainer 4 is detached from the ceiling material 2. A malfunction can be prevented. Therefore, the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 can be easily and reliably assembled to the retainer 4 and workability can be improved. Further, even after the assembly, the retainer 4 is unlikely to fall off the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3, and a stable fixed state can be maintained.
　また、リテーナー４のボデー嵌合部４２には、ボデー材３のボデー端部３３が嵌合されていると共に、ボデー嵌合部４２とボデー端部３３との間の隙間を埋めるためのスペーサー材５１が配設されている。そのため、スペーサー材５１によってボデー端部３３をボデー嵌合部４２において十分かつ確実に固定することができる。これにより、天井材２とボデー材３との間のガタ防止を図ることができる。 The body fitting portion 42 of the retainer 4 is fitted with a body end portion 33 of the body material 3 and a spacer material for filling a gap between the body fitting portion 42 and the body end portion 33. 51 is disposed. Therefore, the body end portion 33 can be sufficiently and reliably fixed at the body fitting portion 42 by the spacer material 51. Thereby, the play between the ceiling material 2 and the body material 3 can be prevented.
　また、リテーナー４は、天井開口部２０の前方の周縁部２０１（ボデー開口部３０の前方の周縁部３０１）に配設されている。そのため、ボデー開口部２０側からその前方の周縁部２０１に対して、天井材２を前進させるようにして組み付けることができる。これにより、作業性を向上させることができる。 Further, the retainer 4 is disposed on a peripheral edge 201 in front of the ceiling opening 20 (a peripheral edge 301 in front of the body opening 30). Therefore, the ceiling material 2 can be assembled from the body opening 20 side to the front peripheral edge 201 so as to advance. Thereby, workability | operativity can be improved.
