Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、インストルメントパネルやクラスタなどの車室前部の内装部品に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
図5に示すように、車室のインストルメントパネル1は、車室前部のフロントガラス3の下縁に沿って設けられ、フロントガラス3の下部と対向するほぼ水平な上面部11と、上面部11の後端から下方へ屈曲して車室に臨むほぼ垂直な後面部12を備えた合成樹脂の大型成形品で構成されている。インストルメントパネル1は、光を反射してフロントガラス3に映らないように、全体に暗色かつ光沢度の低い表面仕上げが施されている。
【0003】
また、インストルメントパネル1には、上面部11の中央にメーター等の計器類4を配設し、計器類4の周囲にこれを囲むとともにインストルメントパネル1の中央を覆うよう合成樹脂のクラスタ2を取付けてインストルメントパネル1を装飾したものがある。この種のクラスタ2もインストルメントパネル1と同様に、光を反射してフロントガラス3に映らないように、その上面部21および後面部22に暗色でかつ光沢度の低い表面仕上げが施されている。図中の5はステアリングホイールである。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、従来のインストルメントパネル1やクラスタ2では全体に暗色で光沢感がないため、デザイン的に地味で単調になってしまう。特にインストルメントパネル1の装飾を目的に取付けられたクラスタ2の意匠効果が発揮されない。そこで、フロントガラス3に映りにくいクラスタ2の後面部22に明色かつ光沢のある塗装を施したり、クラスタ2と同様にインストルメントパネル1の後面部12にも明色かつ光沢のある塗装を施すことが考えられる。これによれば単調感はなくなるものの、各上面部21,11と各後面部22,12との急激な変化により違和感があって全体のバランスがよくなく、煩雑で高級感が損なわれる。そこで本発明は、色艶に変化があり、かつ、一体感が損なわれずデザイン性に優れ、更に、フロントガラスへの映りもない車両用内装部品を実現することを課題としてなされたものである。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、インストルメントパネルおよびクラスタ等の車室前部の内装部品において、フロントガラスに面するほぼ水平な上面部に光の反射率が低くフロントガラスに映らない暗色塗装を施し、車室に臨むほぼ垂直な後面部にはその上方から下方へ向けて漸次塗装色を明色へ変化せしめる塗装を施す(請求項1)。
【0006】
また、本発明は、インストルメントパネルおよびクラスタ等の車室前部の内装部品において、フロントガラスに面するほぼ水平な上面部に光の反射率が低く上記フロントガラスに映らない光沢度の低い塗装を施し、車室に臨むほぼ垂直な後面部にはその上方から下方へ向けて漸次光沢度を高く変化せしめる塗装を施す(請求項2)。
【0007】
上記塗装に代えて、漸次暗色から明色へ変化せしめた着色フィルム、または漸次光沢度を高く変化せしめた着色フィルムを上記内装部品の表面に貼付する(請求項3)。
【0008】
上述の各発明では、内装部品は上面部を暗色とし、または光沢度を低くしたのでフロントガラスへの映りを防ぐことができる。そして、後面部は上面部との境界から下方へ向けて漸次暗色から明色へと変化し、または光沢度が高く変化するグラデーション処理を施すことで上面部と後面部との一体感が損なわれずデザイン性に優れた内装部品を実現できる。
【0009】
更に、本発明は、インストルメントパネルおよびクラスタ等の車室前部の内装部品において、フロントガラスに面するほぼ水平な上面部の表面を光の反射率が低い粗面に形成し、車室に臨むほぼ垂直な後面部の表面をその上方から下方へ向けて漸次粗面から平滑面に変化する面に形成する(請求項4)。内装部品は上面部を粗面としたことで光を乱反射させてフロントガラスへの映りを防ぐことができ、後面部は上面部との境界から下方へ向けて漸次平滑面化することで、見た目に変化があり、かつ、上面部と後面部との一体感も損なわれずデザイン性に優れた内装部品を実現できる。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の第1の実施の形態を説明する。本実施形態は図1に示す車室の内装部品たるクラスタ2に本発明を適用したものである。車室の前部には車室全幅にわたってフロントガラス3の下縁に沿うようにインストルメントパネル1が設けてある。インストルメントパネル1は、傾斜状のフロントガラス3の下部と対向するほぼ水平な上面部11と、その後端から下方へ屈曲して車室に臨むほぼ垂直な後面部12とを備えた合成樹脂からなる大型の型成形部品である。インストルメントパネル1はその車幅方向の中央部1aが車室内へ突出して運転席側と助手席側とを区分している。図1の5は運転席側のステアリングホイールである。
【0011】
インストルメントパネル1には、車幅方向中央部1aの上面部にセンターメーター4を配設し、センターメーター4の周囲にはこれを囲むように大型のクラスタ2が取付けてある。クラスタ2は合成樹脂からなる板状の型成形部品で、フロントガラス3の下部と対向するほぼ水平な上面部21と、屈曲して車室に臨むほぼ垂直な後面部22とを備え、インストルメントパネル1の中央部1aの上方を覆うように取付けてある。クラスタ2の上面部21にはその幅方向ほぼ全幅にわたり車内側へ向かって開口する開口23を備えた凹部24が形成してあり、上記開口23からガラス等の透明板を介してセンターメーター4が視認される。
【0012】
このように構成したインストルメントパネル1は全体に、例えば濃い灰色、ダーク調の紺色、こげ茶色等の暗色かつ光沢度の低い塗装を施して光の反射を防止するようにしたり、あるいは、上記暗色に着色した合成樹脂材料を用いて型成形時に表面を粗面に形成したりしている。これにより、上面部11が光の反射でフロントガラス3に映り、運転者の視界を妨げるのを防止している。
【0013】
一方、図1および図2に示すように、クラスタ2は、センターメーター4まわりを装飾する目的から、違和感を感じさせない程度にインストルメントパネル1とは別色の塗装を施す(例えばインストルメントパネル1が灰色の場合にはダーク調の紺色等とする)。クラスタ2は、その凹部24を含む上面部21(範囲X)に、光の反射率が低い暗色を塗装するとともに、フロントガラス3と対向しない後面部22(範囲Y)には、上方から下方へ向けて漸次暗色から明色へと変化するグラデーション処理を施しながら明色を塗装する。上記範囲Xにダーク調の紺色を塗装した場合は、上記範囲Yは同系色の明るい紺色や青色を塗装する。
【0014】
クラスタ2の塗装は一般に、吐出ガンを用いた吹き付け塗装により行なわれる。図3にクラスタ2の塗装に有効な吐出ガンの要部を示し、吐出ガン6内には、調整バルブ7,8を介して塗料を供給する複数のフィードチューブ61,62が設けてあり、両者61,62から2種類の塗料が供給できるようにしてある。吐出ガン6は、エアモーター等で回転するシャフト63と、該シャフト63の先端に設けたベルカップ64とを備えている。シャフト63は円筒状で、その内部には同心2重構造とした上記フィードチューブ61,62がシャフト63と同軸に配設してある。ベルカップ64はシャフト63に連結した基端から先端に向かって漸次大径となるベル形の筒体で、先端は略円錐形の蓋65で閉じてあり、ベルカップ64の内周と蓋65の外周との間には塗料を吐出する複数の隙間66が形成してある。
【0015】
吐出ガン6は、シャフト63と一体に高速回転するベルカップ64内に各フィードチューブ61,62のいずれかから塗料を供給し、ベルカップ64の遠心力により塗料を隙間66からベルカップ64外へ霧状に吐出して塗装する。また、両フィードチューブ61,62から同時に2種類の塗料を供給すれば、ベルカップ64内で両塗料を混合してベルカップ64外へ霧状に吐出する。
【0016】
クラスタ2を塗装するには、一方のフィードチューブ61から上記範囲Xを塗装する暗色塗料を、他方のフィードチューブ62から上記範囲Yを塗装する明色塗料を供給するようにしておく。そして、クラスタ2はその前方から後方へと塗装していき、クラスタ2の上記範囲Xでは調整バルブ7を開いて上記暗色塗料のみを吐出ガン6に供給して暗色塗料を塗装する。次に、上記範囲Yでは各調整バルブ7,8を調整して暗色塗料と上記明色塗料とを同時に供給して両塗料を混合させ、かつ、上方から下方へと徐々に明色塗料の混合割合を増やして塗装色を明色へと変化させながら塗装する。そして、最終的には調整バルブ7を閉じ調整バルブ8のみを開いて明色塗料を塗装する。これによれば、クラスタ2を1工程で塗装することができる。また、これに限らず、暗色塗料をベース色として第1の塗装工程でクラスタ2全体に塗装し、第2の塗装工程で明色塗料を上記範囲Yにグラデーション処理しながら塗装しても良い。
【0017】
本実施形態によれば、クラスタ2は、その上面部21および凹部24に暗色塗装を施して光の反射率を低く抑えたのでフロントガラス3に映らない。また、後面部22は明色塗装としてデザイン的な変化を与えたのでクラスタ2の意匠効果を発揮することができる。更に、後面部22は上方から下方に向けて暗色から明色に変化するグラデーション処理を施したので上面部21と後面部22との違和感がなく、クラスタ2の一体感が損なわれない。
【0018】
次に、本発明の第2の実施形態を、第1の実施形態との相違点を中心に説明する。クラスタ2は、その上面部21および凹部24を含む上記範囲Xに、光沢度の低い暗色の塗料を塗装するとともに、フロントガラス3と対向しない後面部22たる上記範囲Yには、上方から下方へ向けて漸次光沢度が高く変化するグラデーション処理をかけた塗装を施す。
【0019】
この場合、先ずクラスタ2の全面に暗色かつ光沢度の低い塗装を施してベース塗装とする。そして更に、ベース塗装面にクリア塗装を施す。クリア塗装は、上記範囲Xでは、ベース塗装の色調や光沢度がそのまま現れる極く薄い塗装とする。そして上記範囲Yでは塗膜厚が上方から下方へと漸次厚くなる塗装をする。
【0020】
本実施形態によれば、クラスタ2は、その上面部21および凹部24の光沢度が低くいのでフロントガラス3に映らない。一方、後面部22は上方から下方に向けてクリア塗装の塗膜が厚くなり、これに伴って光沢度が増すから、見た目に変化があり、意匠性が向上する。
【0021】
図4に本発明の第3の実施形態を示す。本実施の形態は、第1および第2の実施形態の塗装に代えて、クラスタ2の表面に着色フィルム7,(7A)を貼付したものである。着色フィルム7は、合成樹脂の薄いフィルム材で、クラスタ2の上面部21、凹部24、後面部22の表面を一体に覆う形状をなし、上面部21および凹部24に対応する着色フィルム7の部位X’は光の反射率が低い暗色に着色するとともに、後面部22を覆う部位Y’は上方から下方へ向けて漸次暗色から明色へと変化するグラデーション処理を施した明色に着色してある。着色フィルム7をクラスタ2の表面を覆うように貼付することで、第1の実施形態と同様の作用効果が得られる。
【0022】
または、クラスタ2の表面を装飾する着色フィルム7Aとして、上面部21および凹部24に対応する着色フィルム7Aの部位X’は光沢度の低い暗色に着色し、後面部22を覆う部位Y’には上方から下方へ向けて漸次光沢度が高く変化するグラデーション処理をかけて着色したものを貼付する。これにより、第2の実施の形態と同様な作用効果が得られる。
【0023】
更に、本発明の第4の実施形態として、クラスタ2の上記範囲Xの表面を光の反射率が低い粗面に形成するとともに、上記範囲Yの表面を、上方から下方へ向けて、漸次粗面から平滑面に変化する面に形成する。この場合、クラスタ2を型成形する金型キャビティの上記クラスタ2の範囲Xに対応する成形面を粗面とするとともに、上記キャビティの上記クラスタ2の範囲Yに対応する成形面はその上方から下方へ向けて漸次粗面から平滑面へと変化する面に形成し、表面に上記キャビティの成形面が転写されたクラスタ2を成形する。クラスタ2の成形材料としては比較的暗色で光沢度の低い材料を用いる。
【0024】
本実施形態によれば、クラスタ2の粗面とした上面部21は光が乱反射してフロントガラス3に映るのが防止され、また、後面部22は上方から下方へと表面粗度が変化して意匠性が与えられる。
【0025】
本発明は、クラスタ2に限らず、インストルメントパネル1の本体や車室後部のデッキトリム等に適用することができる。
【0026】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to interior parts of a vehicle compartment front such as an instrument panel and a cluster.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As shown in FIG. 5, the instrument panel 1 of the passenger compartment is provided along the lower edge of the windshield 3 at the front of the passenger compartment, and a substantially horizontal upper face portion 11 facing the lower portion of the windshield 3, and the upper face. It is composed of a synthetic resin large-sized molded article having a substantially vertical rear surface portion 12 bent downward from the rear end of the portion 11 and facing the passenger compartment. The instrument panel 1 has a dark finish with a low glossiness so that the instrument panel 1 reflects light and does not appear on the windshield 3.
[0003]
Further, the instrument panel 1 is provided with a meter 4 such as a meter at the center of the upper surface portion 11, and surrounds the instrument 4 and surrounds the center of the instrument panel 1 with a synthetic resin cluster 2. The instrument panel 1 is decorated by attaching. As with the instrument panel 1, this type of cluster 2 is also provided with a dark and low glossy surface finish on the upper surface portion 21 and the rear surface portion 22 so as not to be reflected on the windshield 3 by reflecting light. Yes. In the figure, 5 is a steering wheel.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, the conventional instrument panel 1 and the cluster 2 are dark and glossy as a whole, so that the design is plain and monotonous. In particular, the design effect of the cluster 2 attached for the purpose of decoration of the instrument panel 1 is not exhibited. Therefore, a bright and glossy coating is applied to the rear surface portion 22 of the cluster 2 that is difficult to be reflected on the windshield 3, or a bright and glossy coating is applied to the rear surface portion 12 of the instrument panel 1 in the same manner as the cluster 2. It is possible. According to this, although there is no monotonous feeling, there is a sense of incongruity due to abrupt changes between the upper surface portions 21 and 11 and the rear surface portions 22 and 12, the overall balance is not good, and the complicated and high-class feeling is impaired. Therefore, the present invention has been made with the object of realizing an interior part for a vehicle which has a change in color and gloss, is excellent in design without losing a sense of unity, and further has no reflection on the windshield.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In the interior parts of the front part of the passenger compartment such as an instrument panel and a cluster, the present invention applies a dark paint that has a low light reflectivity and does not appear on the front windshield to the passenger compartment. The substantially vertical rear surface facing the surface is coated so as to gradually change the paint color from the upper side to the lower side (Claim 1).
[0006]
Further, the present invention provides an interior panel such as an instrument panel and a cluster having a low glossiness that is not reflected on the windshield and has a low light reflectivity on the substantially horizontal upper surface facing the windshield. A substantially vertical rear surface facing the passenger compartment is coated so as to gradually change the glossiness from the upper side to the lower side (Claim 2).
[0007]
Instead of the coating, a colored film that gradually changes from a dark color to a light color, or a colored film that gradually changes the glossiness is pasted on the surface of the interior part.
[0008]
In each of the above-described inventions, the interior part has a dark color on the upper surface part or a low glossiness, so that reflection on the windshield can be prevented. And the rear surface part gradually changes from the boundary with the upper surface part to the dark color from the dark color to the light color, or by applying gradation processing that the glossiness changes to a high level, the sense of unity between the upper surface part and the rear surface part is not impaired. Interior parts with excellent design can be realized.
[0009]
Furthermore, the present invention provides an interior panel such as an instrument panel and a cluster, in which the surface of the substantially horizontal upper surface facing the windshield is formed into a rough surface with low light reflectivity. The surface of the substantially vertical rear surface that faces is formed on a surface that gradually changes from a rough surface to a smooth surface from above to below. The interior parts have a rough upper surface to diffuse the light and prevent reflection on the windshield, and the rear surface is gradually smoothed downward from the boundary with the upper surface to make it look In addition, it is possible to realize an interior part excellent in design without losing the sense of unity between the upper surface portion and the rear surface portion.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, the present invention is applied to the cluster 2 which is an interior part of the passenger compartment shown in FIG. An instrument panel 1 is provided along the lower edge of the windshield 3 over the entire width of the passenger compartment at the front of the passenger compartment. The instrument panel 1 is made of a synthetic resin having a substantially horizontal upper surface portion 11 facing the lower portion of the inclined windshield 3 and a substantially vertical rear surface portion 12 bent downward from its rear end and facing the passenger compartment. This is a large molded part. The instrument panel 1 has a center portion 1a in the vehicle width direction protruding into the vehicle compartment to divide the driver seat side and the passenger seat side. 1 denotes a steering wheel on the driver's seat side.
[0011]
In the instrument panel 1, a center meter 4 is disposed on the upper surface portion of the vehicle width direction center portion 1a, and a large cluster 2 is attached around the center meter 4 so as to surround it. The cluster 2 is a plate-shaped molded part made of synthetic resin, and includes a substantially horizontal upper surface portion 21 that faces the lower portion of the windshield 3 and a substantially vertical rear surface portion 22 that bends and faces the passenger compartment. The panel 1 is attached so as to cover the upper part of the central portion 1a. The upper surface portion 21 of the cluster 2 is formed with a recess 24 having an opening 23 that opens toward the inside of the vehicle over almost the entire width of the cluster 2, and the center meter 4 is connected to the center meter 4 through a transparent plate such as glass from the opening 23. Visible.
[0012]
The instrument panel 1 constructed in this way is applied with a dark and low gloss paint such as dark gray, dark amber, dark brown or the like to prevent light reflection, or the dark color The surface is formed to be rough at the time of molding using a colored synthetic resin material. Thereby, the upper surface part 11 is reflected on the windshield 3 by reflection of light, and prevents the driver's view from being obstructed.
[0013]
On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the cluster 2 is coated with a color different from that of the instrument panel 1 for the purpose of decorating the periphery of the center meter 4 (for example, the instrument panel 1). If it is gray, it will be a dark amber color). In the cluster 2, the upper surface portion 21 (range X) including the concave portion 24 is coated with a dark color having low light reflectance, and the rear surface portion 22 (range Y) not facing the windshield 3 is directed from above to below. The light color is painted while applying a gradation process that gradually changes from dark to light. When a dark amber color is painted on the range X, the range Y is painted a light amber or blue color of the same color.
[0014]
The coating of the cluster 2 is generally performed by spray coating using a discharge gun. FIG. 3 shows a main part of a discharge gun effective for painting the cluster 2. In the discharge gun 6, a plurality of feed tubes 61 and 62 for supplying paint via adjustment valves 7 and 8 are provided. Two kinds of paints can be supplied from 61 and 62. The discharge gun 6 includes a shaft 63 that is rotated by an air motor or the like, and a bell cup 64 provided at the tip of the shaft 63. The shaft 63 has a cylindrical shape, and the feed tubes 61 and 62 having a concentric double structure are disposed coaxially with the shaft 63. The bell cup 64 is a bell-shaped cylinder that gradually increases in diameter from the proximal end connected to the shaft 63 toward the distal end. The distal end is closed by a substantially conical lid 65, and the inner circumference of the bell cup 64 and the lid 65 are closed. A plurality of gaps 66 for discharging the paint are formed between the outer periphery of the two.
[0015]
The discharge gun 6 supplies the paint from one of the feed tubes 61 and 62 into the bell cup 64 that rotates at high speed integrally with the shaft 63, and the paint is removed from the gap 66 to the outside of the bell cup 64 by the centrifugal force of the bell cup 64. Discharge in mist form and paint. If two types of paints are supplied simultaneously from both feed tubes 61 and 62, both paints are mixed in the bell cup 64 and discharged outside the bell cup 64 in the form of a mist.
[0016]
In order to paint the cluster 2, a dark color paint for painting the range X is supplied from one feed tube 61, and a light color paint for painting the range Y is supplied from the other feed tube 62. Then, the cluster 2 is painted from the front to the rear, and in the range X of the cluster 2, the adjustment valve 7 is opened, and only the dark paint is supplied to the discharge gun 6 to paint the dark paint. Next, in the range Y, the adjustment valves 7 and 8 are adjusted to supply the dark paint and the light paint at the same time to mix both paints, and gradually mix the light paint from the top to the bottom. Paint while changing the paint color to light color by increasing the ratio. Finally, the adjustment valve 7 is closed and only the adjustment valve 8 is opened to apply the light color paint. According to this, the cluster 2 can be painted in one step. The present invention is not limited to this, and the entire cluster 2 may be applied in the first application process using the dark paint as the base color, and the light paint may be applied to the range Y while performing gradation processing in the second application process.
[0017]
According to the present embodiment, the cluster 2 is not reflected on the windshield 3 because the upper surface portion 21 and the concave portion 24 are dark-colored to keep the light reflectance low. Further, since the rear surface portion 22 has undergone a design change as a light color coating, the design effect of the cluster 2 can be exhibited. Further, since the rear surface portion 22 is subjected to gradation processing that changes from dark to light from the top to the bottom, there is no sense of incongruity between the upper surface portion 21 and the rear surface portion 22, and the sense of unity of the cluster 2 is not impaired.
[0018]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described focusing on differences from the first embodiment. The cluster 2 coats the range X including the upper surface portion 21 and the concave portion 24 with dark paint having a low glossiness, and from the upper side to the lower side in the range Y that is the rear surface portion 22 that does not face the windshield 3. Apply a gradation process that gradually changes in glossiness.
[0019]
In this case, first, the entire surface of the cluster 2 is painted with a dark color and low gloss to form a base coating. In addition, clear paint is applied to the base paint surface. In the above-mentioned range X, the clear coating is an extremely thin coating in which the color tone and glossiness of the base coating appear as they are. In the range Y, coating is performed so that the coating thickness gradually increases from the top to the bottom.
[0020]
According to this embodiment, the cluster 2 is not reflected on the windshield 3 because the gloss of the upper surface portion 21 and the recess 24 is low. On the other hand, since the clear surface of the rear surface portion 22 becomes thicker from the upper side to the lower side, and the glossiness increases accordingly, the appearance is changed and the design is improved.
[0021]
FIG. 4 shows a third embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the colored films 7 and (7A) are pasted on the surface of the cluster 2 in place of the coating of the first and second embodiments. The colored film 7 is a thin film material of synthetic resin, and has a shape that integrally covers the upper surface portion 21, the recessed portion 24, and the rear surface portion 22 of the cluster 2, and the colored film 7 corresponding to the upper surface portion 21 and the recessed portion 24. X ′ is colored in a dark color with low light reflectance, and a portion Y ′ covering the rear surface portion 22 is colored in a light color subjected to gradation processing that gradually changes from dark to light from the top to the bottom. is there. By sticking the colored film 7 so as to cover the surface of the cluster 2, the same effect as that of the first embodiment can be obtained.
[0022]
Alternatively, as the colored film 7A for decorating the surface of the cluster 2, the portion X ′ of the colored film 7A corresponding to the upper surface portion 21 and the concave portion 24 is colored in a dark color with a low glossiness, and the portion Y ′ covering the rear surface portion 22 Affixed with a color that has been subjected to gradation processing in which the glossiness gradually increases from the top to the bottom. Thereby, the same effect as the second embodiment can be obtained.
[0023]
Furthermore, as a fourth embodiment of the present invention, the surface of the range X of the cluster 2 is formed into a rough surface with low light reflectance, and the surface of the range Y is gradually roughened from the top to the bottom. It is formed on a surface that changes from a surface to a smooth surface. In this case, the molding surface corresponding to the range X of the cluster 2 of the mold cavity for molding the cluster 2 is a rough surface, and the molding surface corresponding to the range Y of the cluster 2 of the cavity is downward from above. A cluster 2 is formed which is formed on a surface gradually changing from a rough surface toward a smooth surface toward which the molding surface of the cavity is transferred. As the molding material of the cluster 2, a material having a relatively dark color and low gloss is used.
[0024]
According to the present embodiment, the rough upper surface 21 of the cluster 2 is prevented from being reflected on the windshield 3 due to irregular reflection of light, and the rear surface 22 has a surface roughness that changes from the upper side to the lower side. Design.
[0025]
The present invention is not limited to the cluster 2, and can be applied to the main body of the instrument panel 1, the deck trim at the rear of the passenger compartment, and the like.
