Description

本発明は車両のピラーの外面を被覆する金属板のピラーガーニッシュの取付構造、特に合成樹脂のクリップを用いてピラーに取付けるピラーガーニッシュの取付構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a mounting structure of a pillar garnish of a metal plate that covers the outer surface of a pillar of a vehicle, and more particularly to a mounting structure of a pillar garnish that is attached to a pillar using a synthetic resin clip.

従来、自動車には、図１、図２に示すように、フロントピラー１の外面を金属板からなるピラーガーニッシュ２で被覆し、フロントピラー１外面とこれに接着したフロントガラスＧの側縁との接着部を見栄えよく覆い隠すようにしたものがある。ピラーガーニッシュ２は車両走行時の風圧の影響を受けるので、フロントピラー１への取付けは、フロントガラスＧ側のピラーガーニッシュ２の端縁では、フロントピラー１の外面に設けた複数のクリップ３により走行風圧で浮き上がらないように取付けている。   Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an automobile has an outer surface of a front pillar 1 covered with a pillar garnish 2 made of a metal plate, and an outer surface of the front pillar 1 and a side edge of a windshield G adhered thereto. There is something that looks good and covers the adhesive part. Since the pillar garnish 2 is affected by the wind pressure when the vehicle is running, the pillar garnish 2 is attached to the front pillar 1 by a plurality of clips 3 provided on the outer surface of the front pillar 1 at the edge of the pillar garnish 2 on the windshield G side. It is installed so that it does not rise due to wind pressure.

図２および図６（図６は図２のIV−IV線に沿う従来構造の断面を表す）に示すように、ピラーガーニッシュ２の端縁は、折り返し部が形成され、折り返し部の端末はピラー１側へ屈曲形成されて、該端末に角形の係止穴２１を形成して係止部２０が構成されている。係止部２０に対応して、ピラー１外面に取付けられたクリップ３は合成樹脂の一体成形品で断面ほぼＬ字形をなし、ベース部３０をピラー１外面に重ね合せてリベット３００により締結され、ベース部３０の端縁から屈曲してピラーガーニッシュ２の背面側へ突出する係合面３１には先端に、上記角形の係止穴２１に応じて角形に突出する係止爪３２が形成されている。かつクリップ３には係止爪３２とは互い違いとなる位置に、係合面３１と近接対向する弾性支持片３３が設けられている。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 6 (FIG. 6 shows a cross section of the conventional structure taken along line IV-IV in FIG. 2), the end of the pillar garnish 2 is formed with a folded portion, and the end of the folded portion is a pillar. A locking portion 20 is formed by bending to one side and forming a rectangular locking hole 21 in the terminal. Corresponding to the locking portion 20, the clip 3 attached to the outer surface of the pillar 1 is an integrally molded product of synthetic resin, has a substantially L-shaped cross section, and is fastened by a rivet 300 with the base portion 30 superimposed on the outer surface of the pillar 1. The engaging surface 31 that is bent from the edge of the base portion 30 and protrudes toward the back side of the pillar garnish 2 has a locking claw 32 that protrudes in a square shape corresponding to the rectangular locking hole 21 at the tip. Yes. In addition, the clip 3 is provided with an elastic support piece 33 that is in close proximity to the engaging surface 31 at a position that is alternate with the locking claw 32.

ピラーガーニッシュ２は、係止部２０をクリップ３の係合面３１と弾性支持片３３との間に圧入せしめ、係止穴２１を係止爪３２に嵌合係止せしめるとともに、弾性支持片３３により係止部２０を係合面３１側に寄せて係止穴２１と係止爪３２との係合状態を保持している。このようにピラーガーニッシュ２が車両走行時の風圧を受けても、弾性支持片３３の作用により係止穴２１と係止爪３２との係合が外れずピラーガーニッシュ２の浮き上がりを防止する。ピラーガーニッシュ２のフロントドアＤ寄りの車両側面側の端縁では、所定の間隔をおいて係合手段５によりピラー１外面に取付けられている。   The pillar garnish 2 presses the locking portion 20 between the engagement surface 31 of the clip 3 and the elastic support piece 33, and engages and locks the locking hole 21 with the locking claw 32, and also elastically supports the elastic support piece 33. Thus, the engaging portion 20 is moved closer to the engaging surface 31 side to keep the engaging hole 21 and the engaging claw 32 engaged. Thus, even if the pillar garnish 2 receives wind pressure during traveling of the vehicle, the engagement of the locking holes 21 and the locking claws 32 is not released by the action of the elastic support pieces 33, thereby preventing the pillar garnish 2 from being lifted. The pillar garnish 2 is attached to the outer surface of the pillar 1 by an engagement means 5 at a predetermined interval at an edge of the side surface of the vehicle near the front door D.

ところで、ピラーガーニッシュ２は、フロントガラスＧの修理交換時等に、フロントピラー１から外さなければならない。この場合、無理にクリップ３と係止部２０との係合を解除すると、クリップ３の係止爪３２が折れるおそれがある。係止爪３２が折れるとクリップ３を交換しなければならず、リベット締めされたクリップ３を交換するには作業手間がかかり、修理費用がかさむ。尚、クリップ３をリベット締めの代わりに着脱が容易な他の固定手段で取付けておくことも考えられるが、上記走行風圧による浮き上がりを防止するために取付け強度を確保することと、ピラー１とピラーガーニッシュ２との間には雨水等が進入するのでピラー１内部の防水性を確保するためにはリベット締めが最適である。   By the way, the pillar garnish 2 must be removed from the front pillar 1 when the windshield G is repaired or replaced. In this case, if the engagement between the clip 3 and the locking portion 20 is forcibly released, the locking claw 32 of the clip 3 may be broken. When the latching claw 32 is broken, the clip 3 must be replaced, and replacing the riveted clip 3 requires labor and increases repair costs. Although it is conceivable to attach the clip 3 by other fixing means that can be easily attached and detached instead of riveting, securing the mounting strength in order to prevent the lifting due to the traveling wind pressure, the pillar 1 and the pillar Since rainwater or the like enters between the garnish 2 and the garnish 2, riveting is optimal for securing the waterproofness inside the pillar 1.

上述のピラー１とピラーガーニッシュ２との取付け構造と類似のものとして、下記特許文献１には、合成樹脂からなるドアトリム等の部材に硬質ウレタンよりなるＥＡ材を取付ける構造において、上記ドアトリム等の部材に立設された平板状の係止部に係止穴（開口）を設ける一方、ＥＡ材には上記平板状の係止部の両側に該係止部を挟み込む左右一対の係合面と、両係合面から突出して上記係止部の係止穴に嵌合する係止爪とを備えたクリップを設け、該クリップにより上記係止部を嵌合係止してドアトリム等の部材とＥＡ材とを取付けることが記載されている。しかしながら該特許文献１に記載の構造では、一旦取付けられたドアトリム等の部材とＥＡ材とは取外す必要がないので、係止部とクリップの係合を解除することが想定されていない。
特開２００５−８３５３４号公報 As similar to the mounting structure of the pillar 1 and the pillar garnish 2 described above, the following Patent Document 1 describes a member such as a door trim in a structure in which an EA material made of hard urethane is attached to a member such as a door trim made of a synthetic resin. A pair of left and right engaging surfaces sandwiching the engaging portions on both sides of the flat engaging portion on the EA material, A clip provided with a locking claw that protrudes from both engaging surfaces and fits into a locking hole of the locking portion is provided, and the locking portion is fitted and locked by the clip to a member such as a door trim and EA The attachment of the material is described. However, in the structure described in Patent Document 1, since it is not necessary to remove the member such as the door trim once attached and the EA material, it is not assumed that the engagement between the locking portion and the clip is released.

Installed. The standing posture of the protrusion 5a is set substantially parallel to the press-fitting direction of the locking portion 20 of the pillar garnish 2 into the clip 3. When the protrusion 5a is attached to the pillar outer surface 10, a sealing material is provided between the base plate 51 and the opening periphery of the attachment hole to ensure waterproofness in the pillar.

受け部材５ｂは、ピラーガーニッシュ２の係止部２０およびフランジ部２２間を幅方向に架けわたす合成樹脂板からなり、両端縁に設けた係合部５４，５５をそれぞれ、係止部２０およびフランジ部２２に係合せしめてある。受け部材５ｂには、突起５ａに対応して嵌合穴５０が形成してあり、嵌合穴５０の外周は角形の筒部５６で囲まれている。嵌合穴５０内には突起５ａの爪部５２に応じて弾性を有する爪受けが形成してある。   The receiving member 5b is made of a synthetic resin plate that spans between the locking portion 20 and the flange portion 22 of the pillar garnish 2 in the width direction. The engaging portions 54 and 55 provided at both end edges are respectively connected to the locking portion 20 and the flange. It is engaged with the portion 22. The receiving member 5b is formed with a fitting hole 50 corresponding to the protrusion 5a, and the outer periphery of the fitting hole 50 is surrounded by a rectangular tube portion 56. A claw receiver having elasticity is formed in the fitting hole 50 in accordance with the claw portion 52 of the protrusion 5a.

係合手段５は、ピラーガーニッシュ２の係止部２０をクリップ３に圧入すると同時に、突起５ａを受け部材５ｂの嵌合穴５０へ上記圧入方向に沿って嵌入し、突起５ａの爪部５２を嵌合穴５０の上記爪受けに係止せしめる。尚、走行風圧の影響を受け難いピラーガーニッシュ２の車体側面側を固定する係合手段５は取付け強度をあまり高くする必要がなく、爪部５２の嵌合穴５０への係合は、上記嵌入方向に対して傾斜状の爪部５２の傾斜面を上記爪受けに当接係止せしめ、上記嵌入方向とは逆方向に引っ張ることで係合解除可能としてある。   The engaging means 5 press-fits the locking portion 20 of the pillar garnish 2 into the clip 3 and simultaneously fits the protrusion 5a into the fitting hole 50 of the receiving member 5b along the press-fitting direction so that the claw portion 52 of the protrusion 5a is inserted. The mating hole 50 is engaged with the claw receptacle. Note that the engagement means 5 for fixing the side surface of the pillar garnish 2 which is not easily affected by the wind pressure of the vehicle does not need to have a very high mounting strength, and the engagement of the claw portion 52 with the fitting hole 50 is performed as described above. The inclined surface of the claw portion 52 inclined with respect to the direction is brought into contact with and locked to the claw receiver, and the engagement can be released by pulling in the direction opposite to the insertion direction.

本実施形態の取付構造によれば、ピラーガーニッシュ２をピラー外面１０に取付ける際、係止部２０のクリップ３への圧入方向に合わせて、係合手段５の突起５ａと嵌合穴５０との嵌入方向を設定したので、ピラー外面１０を覆うようにピラーガーニッシュ２を配し、ピラーガーニッシュ２をピラー外面１０へ押し付けることにより各部の係合が一度にでき取付作業の手間がかからない。   According to the mounting structure of the present embodiment, when the pillar garnish 2 is mounted on the pillar outer surface 10, the protrusion 5 a of the engaging means 5 and the fitting hole 50 are aligned with the press-fitting direction of the locking portion 20 into the clip 3. Since the insertion direction is set, the pillar garnish 2 is arranged so as to cover the pillar outer surface 10 and the pillar garnish 2 is pressed against the pillar outer surface 10 so that the respective parts can be engaged at a time, and the installation work is not time-consuming.

ピラーガーニッシュ２は、フロントガラスＧ側の端縁では走行風圧の影響を受けてピラー外面１０から浮き上がり易いが、弾性支持片３３により係止穴２１と係止爪３２とを係合状態に保持するクリップ３を用いたので上記端縁側の浮き上がりなく取付けることができる。尚、クリップ３は係止爪３２の両端にテーパー面３４が形成してあるので、クリップ３による取付けだけではピラーガーニッシュ２の長手方向に沿う移動が規制されずガタツキが起こるおそれがあるが、クリップ３による取付構造に加えて、嵌合穴５０に突起５ａを嵌入せしめる係合手段５を併用したので、ピラーガーニッシュ２全体をガタツキなくかつ建付け精度よく取付けることができる。   The pillar garnish 2 is easily lifted from the pillar outer surface 10 at the edge on the windshield G side due to the influence of the traveling wind pressure, but the locking holes 21 and the locking claws 32 are held in the engaged state by the elastic support pieces 33. Since the clip 3 is used, it can be mounted without lifting up on the edge side. Since the clip 3 has tapered surfaces 34 at both ends of the locking claw 32, the movement along the longitudinal direction of the pillar garnish 2 is not restricted only by the attachment with the clip 3, but there is a risk of rattling. Since the engaging means 5 for fitting the protrusion 5a into the fitting hole 50 is used in addition to the attachment structure according to 3, the entire pillar garnish 2 can be attached without rattling and with high installation accuracy.

フロントガラスＧの修理等でピラーガーニッシュ２を取外す場合には、ピラーガーニッシュ２の車体側面側の端縁をピラー外面１０から離間させる方向に引っ張ることで係合手段５の係合を解除する。その後、ピラーガーニッシュ２を長手方向に沿って上方または下方へ移動させ、係止部２０の係止穴２１をクリップ３の係止爪３２のテーパー面３４に沿う方向に移動させると、係止穴２１の側縁がテーパー面３４に当接し、テーパー面３４に案内されて係止部２０が弾性支持片３３を押し広げつつ係合面３１から離間する方向へ移動する。そして最終的に係止穴２１の側縁が係止爪３２を乗り越えて係止穴２１と係止爪３２との係合がスムーズに解除され、係止爪３２を破損することなく容易にピラーガーニッシュ２を取外すことができる。   When removing the pillar garnish 2 for repairing the windshield G or the like, the engagement of the engagement means 5 is released by pulling the edge of the pillar garnish 2 on the side surface of the vehicle body away from the pillar outer surface 10. Thereafter, when the pillar garnish 2 is moved upward or downward along the longitudinal direction and the locking hole 21 of the locking part 20 is moved in the direction along the tapered surface 34 of the locking claw 32 of the clip 3, the locking hole The side edge of 21 abuts on the taper surface 34, and is guided by the taper surface 34, so that the locking portion 20 moves away from the engagement surface 31 while expanding the elastic support piece 33. Finally, the side edge of the locking hole 21 gets over the locking claw 32, the engagement between the locking hole 21 and the locking claw 32 is smoothly released, and the pillars can be easily removed without damaging the locking claw 32. Garnish 2 can be removed.

ピラーガーニッシュ２を取外す際、例え、係合手段５の係合を解除するときに無理な力がかかって突起５ａが破損したとしても、容易に新品に交換することができる。上述の実施形態のクリップ３は係合面３１に係止爪３２と弾性支持片３３を一対設けたがこれに限らず、係止爪３２と弾性支持片３３を複数設けてもよい。また係止爪３２のテーパー面３４は片側のみに形成してもよい。この場合、全てクリップ３の同一方向にテーパー面３４を設ける。   When removing the pillar garnish 2, even if an excessive force is applied when the engagement means 5 is disengaged, the protrusion 5a can be easily replaced with a new one. Although the clip 3 of the above-described embodiment is provided with a pair of the locking claw 32 and the elastic support piece 33 on the engagement surface 31, the present invention is not limited thereto, and a plurality of the locking claw 32 and the elastic support piece 33 may be provided. Further, the tapered surface 34 of the locking claw 32 may be formed only on one side. In this case, the tapered surfaces 34 are all provided in the same direction of the clip 3.
