Description

本発明は、上方開きの後面扉の内側に摺動部材を収納した車両用後面扉に関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle rear door in which a sliding member is housed inside a rear door that opens upward.

１ボツクスカーや２ボツクスカーの車両後面扉には、上方に開く形式や側方に開く形式のものが採用されている。
そして、上方開きのものは側方開きのものに比べて、雨天時の荷の積卸し作業や休憩時に、後面扉を雨避けや日避けに使用でき便利ではあるが、従来のように扉だけの面積では不充分である。
尚、車両後部に出し入れ自由な可動部材を設けたものに関しては実公平０２−４８１２号で提案されたものがあるが、これはサンバイザ装置としてのブラインドを車室内側から固定ガイドレールを介して後面扉に取り付けたものである。また、車室内側から複雑形状なブラインド機能を直接扉面への取付け構造としているため車室内側への突出し形状となり、収納物への妨げとなる場合もあり、また外観上見栄え良好なものとは言い得なかった。
実公平０２−４８１２号公報 As the vehicle rear door of the one box car or the two box car, a type opening upward or a side opening type is adopted.
And, the one that opens upward is more convenient than the one that opens sideways, but it is convenient to use the rear door to avoid rain and sun during loading and unloading work in the rain and during breaks. This area is not sufficient.
In addition, as for the thing provided with a movable member that can be freely inserted and removed at the rear of the vehicle, there has been proposed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 02-4812. It is attached to the door. In addition, since the blind function with a complicated shape from the vehicle interior side is directly attached to the door surface, it protrudes into the vehicle interior side and may interfere with the stored items, and also looks good in appearance. Could not say.
No. 02-4812

本発明は上記の実情に鑑みてなされたもので、上方開きの後面扉の車両内側に摺動部材を収納したことにより、車室内の収納物の妨げとならず、また外観上見栄えも良好で、さらに後面扉開放時における十分な雨避け及び日避け面積を拡大し、また既存の車両にも設置可能な車両用後面扉を提供することを目的(課題)とするものである。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and by storing the sliding member inside the rear door of the rear door that opens upward, it does not hinder the stored items in the vehicle interior, and the appearance is good. Furthermore, an object (problem) is to provide a vehicle rear door that can increase the area of avoidance of rain and sun when the rear door is opened and can be installed in an existing vehicle.

このため、本発明は上方を枢支された後面扉、同後面扉に形成された固定ガイド、同固定ガイドに支持された摺動部材とを有し、当該摺動部材が車両外方へ拡大するように上記後面扉の内側に配置されたことを特徴とする構成としたものである。 For this reason, the present invention has a rear door pivotally supported on the upper side, a fixed guide formed on the rear door, and a sliding member supported by the fixed guide, and the sliding member expands outward of the vehicle. Thus, it is configured to be arranged inside the rear door.

上記手段により、本発明によれば、後面扉に車両外方へ拡大するように摺動部材を後面扉の内側に配置したので、扉開放時に後面扉の外方に引き出すことで、上方開きの後面扉だけの従来車両に比べて雨避けや日避け機能を拡大でき、雨や日射を確実に避けることができる。また、摺動部材は、後面扉内部に配置されるので、外観上の見栄えが良好である。 By the above means, according to the present invention, since the sliding member is arranged inside the rear door so as to expand outward on the rear door, when the door is opened, it can be opened upward by pulling it out of the rear door. Compared to conventional vehicles with only a rear door, rain and sun avoidance functions can be expanded, and rain and solar radiation can be avoided reliably. Moreover, since the sliding member is arrange | positioned inside a rear door, the external appearance is favorable.

以下、本発明の１実施例を図面に基づいて説明する。
図１乃至図３は本実施例の装置を設けた車両用後面扉可動装置を示す。
図１においては、本装置を車両側面０１から見た図を示し、後面扉１に本実施例の摺動装置２が装備されている。
また、かかる摺動装置２は、後面扉１の車両内側の両側縁に車両上下方向に互いに平行に固定された固定ガイドレール３、３と、該固定ガイドレール３、３に沿ってスライド自在に取り付けられた例えば樹脂材による軽量化物の一体成形による摺動部材４と、該摺動部材４を被うカバー内装材７を備えて構成されている。
カバー内装材７は、後面扉1の内側下半部に固定されており、固定ガイドレール３、３と、摺動部材４を略完全に覆うように形成されている。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 show a vehicle rear door movable device provided with the device of this embodiment.
In FIG. 1, the figure which looked at this apparatus from the vehicle side surface 01 is shown, and the sliding device 2 of a present Example is equipped in the rear surface door 1. FIG.
In addition, the sliding device 2 is slidable along the fixed guide rails 3 and 3 fixed to the both side edges of the rear door 1 inside the vehicle in parallel to each other in the vehicle vertical direction. For example, the sliding member 4 is formed by integrally molding a weight-reduced material made of, for example, a resin material, and a cover interior material 7 covering the sliding member 4 is configured.
The cover interior material 7 is fixed to the inner lower half of the rear door 1 and is formed so as to cover the fixed guide rails 3 and 3 and the sliding member 4 substantially completely.

具体的には、前記固定ガイドレール３、３は図２に示すように断面略コ字状をなし、その開放端が互いに内側に向き合って、後面扉1の両側縁近傍に配置されている。一方、摺動部材４は、その両側端部が固定ガイドレール３、３に係合する断面略Ｔ字状の係合部４ａ、４ａと車両上下方向上下両端部略中央に窪み部８とが形成されている。（図３）ストッパー５はカバー内装材７に固定された例えば、コイルバネ、板バネ等の弾性部材５１と同弾性部材５１によって窪み部８方向に付勢されるストッパーフツク５２の先端部とが上記窪み部８に係止されることによって摺動部材４は後面扉１上部及び下部開口部にそれぞれ後面扉1のカバー内装材７内に収納されて係止、固定される。
また、窪み部８を貫通穴（図示せず）とすることにより、ストッパーフツク５２の先端部を挿入嵌合する形状としても良い。 Specifically, the fixed guide rails 3 and 3 have a substantially U-shaped cross section as shown in FIG. 2, and their open ends face each other inward and are arranged near both side edges of the rear door 1. On the other hand, the sliding member 4 has engaging portions 4a and 4a having a substantially T-shaped cross section whose both end portions engage with the fixed guide rails 3 and 3, and a recessed portion 8 at substantially the center in the vehicle vertical direction both ends. Is formed. (FIG. 3) The stopper 5 is, for example, an elastic member 51 such as a coil spring or a leaf spring fixed to the cover interior material 7 and the tip of the stopper hook 52 biased in the direction of the recess 8 by the elastic member 51. The sliding member 4 is housed in the cover interior material 7 of the rear door 1 at the upper and lower openings of the rear door 1 and locked and fixed by being locked in the recess 8.
Moreover, it is good also as a shape which inserts and fits the front-end | tip part of the stopper hook 52 by making the hollow part 8 into a through-hole (not shown).

次に、かかる構成の車両用後面扉を使用する場合は、図１示の如く後面扉１を上方に開け、前記ストッパーフツク５２の係止を解除後、摺動部材４の一端、即ち後面扉１開口部６に位置する端部を持って図中矢印方向に引き出す。すると、摺動部材４の断面略Ｔ字状の係合部４ａ、４ａが固定ガイドレール３、３内をスライドして引き出されると共に、前記係止を解除したストッパーフツク５２の先端部が摺動部材４の車両上下方向上端部略中央に形成された窪み部８１と当接、固定されることによって、摺動部材４は可動ガイドレール３、３上に安定的に固定される。
尚、窪み部８１は、必要に応じてその引出し量を選択することが出来るように複数個所に形成されており、窪み部８と同様に貫通穴（図示せず）とすることにより、ストッパーフツク５２の先端部を挿入嵌合する形状としても良い。 Next, when the vehicle rear door having such a structure is used, the rear door 1 is opened upward as shown in FIG. 1 and the stopper hook 52 is unlocked, and then one end of the sliding member 4, that is, the rear door. Hold the end located at one opening 6 and pull it out in the direction of the arrow in the figure. Then, the engaging portions 4a and 4a having a substantially T-shaped cross section of the sliding member 4 are slid out of the fixed guide rails 3 and 3, and the distal end portion of the stopper hook 52 released from the locking is slid. The sliding member 4 is stably fixed on the movable guide rails 3 and 3 by being brought into contact with and fixed to a recess 81 formed in the approximate center of the upper end of the vehicle 4 in the vehicle vertical direction.
The recess 81 is formed at a plurality of locations so that the amount of withdrawal can be selected as necessary. By forming a through hole (not shown) in the same manner as the recess 8, the stopper hook 81 is provided. It is good also as a shape which inserts and fits the front-end | tip part of 52.

これにより、雨避けや日避け面積が、従来後面扉１の分（図１中α₁）だけであったのに比べて摺動部材４の張り出し分（図１中α₂）が最大限拡がることになる。従って、雨天時における車両後部での荷の積卸し作業時や、休憩時に、雨や日に曝され難くなり、便利である。 Thus, the rain or days avoiding area, min prior Rear door 1 overhanging portion of the sliding member 4 as compared to was only (in FIG. 1 alpha ₁₎ (in FIG. 1 alpha ₂₎ spreads maximum It will be. Therefore, it becomes difficult to be exposed to rain and sun during loading and unloading work at the rear of the vehicle in rainy weather or during breaks.

そして、格納時においては、摺動部材４が後面扉１の下方でカバー内装材７内にコンパクトに収納される状態となるので、車両の後方視界が損なわれることはなく安全上問題はない。しかも、後面扉１の下方向長さと略同等の長さの摺動部材４を設けることができるので、当該摺動部材４による雨避けや日避け面積が大きくとることができる。また、後面扉１の車内側に装着するために着脱が容易で、既存の車両へのいわゆる後付けが可能となるものでユーザーの要望に応じて取付けが自由にできる利点がある。
尚、本発明は車両の上下方向への可動に限らず、車両の幅方向への適用も可能であることは勿論である。 During storage, the sliding member 4 is compactly housed in the cover interior material 7 below the rear door 1, so that the rear view of the vehicle is not impaired and there is no safety problem. In addition, since the sliding member 4 having a length substantially equal to the downward length of the rear door 1 can be provided, it is possible to increase the area of avoiding rain and sun by the sliding member 4. Further, since the rear door 1 is mounted on the inner side of the vehicle, it can be easily attached and detached, so that it can be attached to an existing vehicle, and there is an advantage that it can be freely mounted according to the user's request.
Of course, the present invention is not limited to the vertical movement of the vehicle, but can be applied to the width direction of the vehicle.

以上述べたように本発明によれば、上方開きの後面扉１内側に取付け自在な摺動装置２を設け、この摺動装置２に設けられた摺動部材４を扉開放時に後面扉１の外方に引き出せるよう構成したので、上方開きの後面扉１だけの従来車両に比べて雨避けや日避け機能を拡大でき実用価値が高い。また、摺動部材４がその両端に断面略Ｔ字状の係合部４ａ、４ａ有する樹脂材等の一体成形品からなる、いわゆる剛体を形成するため、後面扉１から外方へ引き出し、使用する際にも摺動部材４自体が撓んだり、変形することもないため、雨や日射を確実に避けることができる。更に、カバー内装材７（摺動装置２）が、後面扉1の内側下半部に固定されているため、収納時は車両設置のリヤガラスの視界を妨げることなく車両本来の後方視界を確保でき、軽量で操作性が良く、外観上の見栄えが良好である等の多くの利点がある。
また、摺動部材４は、使用時と収納時共に弾性部材５１からなるストッパーフツク５２の先端部が弾力的に当接、係合固定されているため、走行中及び停止時のアイドリングの車両振動にも十分有利なものとなっている。更に、本装置の着脱は容易で、既存の車両へのいわゆる後付けが可能となるものでユーザーの要望に応じて取付けが自由にできる利点がある。 As described above, according to the present invention, the sliding device 2 that can be freely attached is provided inside the rear door 1 that opens upward, and the sliding member 4 provided on the sliding device 2 is attached to the rear door 1 when the door is opened. Since it is constructed so that it can be pulled out, the rain avoidance function and the sun avoidance function can be expanded as compared with a conventional vehicle having only the rear door 1 that opens upward. Also, the sliding member 4 is drawn out from the rear door 1 to the outside in order to form a so-called rigid body made of an integrally molded product such as a resin material having engaging portions 4a, 4a having a substantially T-shaped cross section at both ends. In this case, since the sliding member 4 itself is not bent or deformed, rain and solar radiation can be surely avoided. Furthermore, since the cover interior material 7 (sliding device 2) is fixed to the inner lower half of the rear door 1, it is possible to ensure the vehicle's original rear view without interfering with the view of the rear glass installed on the vehicle. There are many advantages such as light weight, good operability, and good appearance.
Further, the sliding member 4 is elastically abutted and engaged and fixed at the tip end portion of the stopper hook 52 made of the elastic member 51 during use and storage, so that the vehicle vibration of idling during running and when stopped. It is also very advantageous. Further, the apparatus can be easily attached and detached, so that it can be retrofitted to an existing vehicle, and there is an advantage that attachment can be freely made according to the user's request.
