Description

センサの固定構造及び固定用クリップSensor fixing structure and fixing clip
　この発明は、シートパンに固定用クリップを用いてセンサを固定するセンサの固定構造及び固定用クリップに関する。 The present invention relates to a sensor fixing structure for fixing a sensor to a seat pan using a fixing clip and a fixing clip.
　自動車の座席に、乗員が着座しているか否を検知するための着座センサを設けることがある。このようなセンサは、例えば乗員の着座状態によってエアバッグを制御したり、シートベルトを着用していない様な場合に、警告を発するために用いることが可能である。下記特許文献１には、乗員が着座するクッションパッドとシートパンとの間に着座センサを配置し、シートパンに形成された孔に嵌合する嵌合凸部を有する着座センサが開示されている。 A seating sensor may be provided in a car seat to detect whether a passenger is seated. Such a sensor can be used, for example, to issue a warning when the airbag is controlled by the occupant's seating state or when a seat belt is not worn. Patent Document 1 below discloses a seating sensor in which a seating sensor is disposed between a cushion pad on which an occupant sits and a seat pan, and has a fitting convex portion that fits into a hole formed in the seat pan. .
特開２０１２－１２１３６４号公報JP 2012-121364 A
　本発明は、センサとシートパンとの位置ずれを生じることなくシートパン及びセンサに固定用クリップを挿入する際の挿入力を低減し、且つ低コストで製造可能であるセンサの固定構造及び固定用クリップを提供することを目的とする。 The present invention reduces the insertion force when inserting a fixing clip into a seat pan and the sensor without causing a positional shift between the sensor and the seat pan, and can be manufactured at a low cost. The purpose is to provide a clip.
　本発明に係るセンサの固定構造は、シートパンに固定用クリップを用いてセンサを固定するものであり、シートパンは、第１の固定穴と第２の固定穴とを有し、第１の固定穴は、第１の固定穴と第２の固定穴とを結ぶ直線上に長軸が伸びる長穴であり、固定用クリップは、第１の固定穴及び第２の固定穴とそれぞれ嵌合する第１のクリップ、第２のクリップ及びこれらを連結する連結部を有し、第１のクリップ及び第２のクリップの少なくとも一方には、一組の爪部が形成される。 The sensor fixing structure according to the present invention is to fix the sensor to the seat pan using a fixing clip, and the seat pan has a first fixing hole and a second fixing hole, The fixing hole is a long hole whose major axis extends on a straight line connecting the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole, and the fixing clip is fitted to the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole, respectively. A first clip, a second clip, and a connecting portion for connecting them, and at least one of the first clip and the second clip is formed with a set of claw portions.
　本発明に係るセンサの固定構造によれば、固定用クリップが第１のクリップ、第２のクリップ及びこれらを連結する連結部を有しているので、シートパンに形成された第１の固定穴及び第２の固定穴と第１のクリップ及び第２のクリップとが嵌合した状態では、第１及び第２のクリップが、第１及び第２の固定穴に対して回転することがない。このため、第１のクリップ及び第２のクリップの少なくとも一方には、一組の爪部が形成されていることと相俟って、クリップ構造を複雑にせずに、効果的な抜け防止を図ることができる。しかも、第１の固定穴は、第１の固定穴と第２の固定穴とを結ぶ直線上に長軸が延びる長穴であることから、第１のクリップと第２のクリップは、それらの相対距離に多少の製造バラツキが生じても、第１の固定穴及び第２の固定穴に支障無く嵌合させることができる。即ち、第１の固定穴及び第２の固定穴が共に真円として形成された場合、センサに設けられた穴とシートパンに設けられた穴とがずれてしまえば、センサをシートパンに適切に固定することが困難となってしまうのである。 According to the sensor fixing structure of the present invention, the fixing clip has the first clip, the second clip, and the connecting portion that connects these, so the first fixing hole formed in the seat pan. In the state in which the second fixing hole and the first clip and the second clip are fitted, the first and second clips do not rotate with respect to the first and second fixing holes. For this reason, in combination with the fact that at least one of the first clip and the second clip is formed with a pair of claw portions, effective clip prevention is achieved without complicating the clip structure. be able to. Moreover, since the first fixing hole is an elongated hole having a long axis extending on a straight line connecting the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole, the first clip and the second clip are Even if there is some manufacturing variation in the relative distance, the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole can be fitted without any trouble.

Next, a state when the seating sensor 3 is fixed to the seat pan 2 using the fixing clip 4 will be described. When the seating sensor 3 is arranged on the seat pan 2 and the first clip 41 is pushed into the first fixing hole 22 and the first fixed hole 311, the edge of the first fixed hole 311 of the seating sensor 3 is pushed. A pair of nail | claw parts 413 and 414 are pressed along, and an elastic deformation is produced. When the first clip 41 is further pushed in, the maximum distance of the clamping portion R of the claws 413 and 414 is elastically deformed to the diameter of the first fixed hole 311 and the edge of the first fixing hole 22 in the short axis direction. The both sandwiching portions R are inserted into the first fixing hole 22 and the first fixed hole 311. When both clamping parts R pass the 1st fixing hole 22, the nail | claw parts 413 and 414 will return to the original shape by internal stress. As a result, the seating portions F1 and F2 at both ends of the base portion 411 and the sandwiching portion R sandwich the upper surface of the seating sensor 3 and the rear surface of the fixing surface 21 of the seat pan 2 to fix in the vertical direction. The seating sensor 3 is fixed in the left-right direction by coming into contact with the inner periphery of the first fixed hole 311, and the clamping portion R is attached to the inner wall in the end axial direction of the first fixed hole 311 and the first fixed hole 22. By abutting, fixing in the front-rear direction is performed.
　第２のクリップ４２もほぼ同様に第２の固定穴２３及び第２の被固定穴３１２の固定を行う。但し、第２のクリップにおいては幹部４２２の上部側面が第２の被固定穴３１２及び第２の固定穴２３の内壁に当接し、着座センサ３及びシートパン２の左右方向の固定を行う。従って、着座センサ３とシートパン２との左右方向の固定は、第２のクリップ４２の幹部４２２によって担われることとなるが、幹部４２２は左右方向を長手方向として配置されている為、充分な強度を有する。また、第１のクリップ４１及び第２のクリップ４２は連結部４３によって連結されているため、着座センサ３上面の、連結部４３の着座部Ｆ２に接触する部分にもシートパン２に押しつける力が働く。また、当該連結によって第１のクリップ４１の水平面内における回転が防止されるため、挟持部Ｒによって好適に第１の固定穴２２の短手方向側壁を保持することが可能である。 The second clip 42 also fixes the second fixing hole 23 and the second fixed hole 312 in substantially the same manner. However, in the second clip, the upper side surface of the trunk 422 abuts against the inner walls of the second fixed hole 312 and the second fixing hole 23 to fix the seating sensor 3 and the seat pan 2 in the left-right direction. Accordingly, the fixing of the seating sensor 3 and the seat pan 2 in the left-right direction is carried by the trunk portion 422 of the second clip 42. However, the trunk portion 422 is disposed with the left-right direction as the longitudinal direction, so that it is sufficient. Has strength. Further, since the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 are connected by the connecting portion 43, the force that presses the seat pan 2 on the portion of the upper surface of the seating sensor 3 that contacts the seating portion F <b> 2 of the connecting portion 43. work. Further, since the first clip 41 is prevented from rotating in the horizontal plane by the connection, the short side wall of the first fixing hole 22 can be suitably held by the sandwiching portion R.
　［１－６．第１の実施形態に係る着座センサ３の固定方法の効果］
　このようにしてシートパン２に着座センサ３が固定されると、シートパン２と着座センサ３とは２カ所で固定されているため、水平面方向の変化を抑制することが可能である。また、クリップを固定穴に嵌合することによって着座センサ３及びシートパン２を固定しているため、大きな挿入力を必要としない。更に、第１の固定穴２２は長穴として形成されており、その長軸は第１の固定穴２２と第２の固定穴２３を結ぶ直線上に伸びている。従って、着座センサ３に穴を設ける際の製造誤差の許容範囲を広げることが可能であり、製造コストを低減させることが可能である。即ち、第１の固定穴２２及び第２の固定穴２３が共に真円として形成された場合、着座センサ３に設けられた穴とシートパン２に設けられた穴とがずれてしまえば、着座センサをシートパン２に適切に固定することが困難となってしまうのである。 [1-6. Effect of fixing method of seating sensor 3 according to first embodiment]
When the seating sensor 3 is fixed to the seat pan 2 in this way, since the seat pan 2 and the seating sensor 3 are fixed at two places, it is possible to suppress a change in the horizontal plane direction. Further, since the seating sensor 3 and the seat pan 2 are fixed by fitting the clip into the fixing hole, a large insertion force is not required. Further, the first fixing hole 22 is formed as a long hole, and its long axis extends on a straight line connecting the first fixing hole 22 and the second fixing hole 23. Therefore, it is possible to widen the allowable range of manufacturing errors when providing holes in the seating sensor 3, and to reduce manufacturing costs. That is, when both the first fixing hole 22 and the second fixing hole 23 are formed as a perfect circle, if the hole provided in the seating sensor 3 and the hole provided in the seat pan 2 deviate, This makes it difficult to properly fix the sensor to the seat pan 2.
　また、本実施形態に係るセンサの固定構造においては、第１のクリップ４１に、それぞれ一対の爪部４１３及び４１４が形成されているが、後述の通り、第１のクリップ４１に３つ以上の爪部を形成しても良い。ただし、爪部は一対でも充分な保持力を確保することが可能であり、射出成形によって固定用クリップ４を製造する場合には一対である方が製造コストを低減することが可能であり、更に、爪部が３つ以上あると取付けの際に必要とされる挿入力が増してしまう恐れがある。従って、爪部は一対であることが望ましい。 Further, in the sensor fixing structure according to the present embodiment, the first clip 41 is formed with a pair of claw portions 413 and 414, respectively. A claw portion may be formed. However, even with a pair of claw portions, it is possible to ensure a sufficient holding force, and when the fixing clip 4 is manufactured by injection molding, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost if the pair is a pair. If there are three or more claw parts, the insertion force required for attachment may increase. Therefore, it is desirable that the claw portion is a pair.
　ここで、本実施形態においては第１の固定穴２２が長穴として形成されているが、上記一対の爪部４１３及び４１４が張り出す方向と長穴の長軸方向とが交差している状態を維持できない場合、固定用クリップ４の保持力が著しく低下してしまう。そこで、本実施形態においては固定用クリップ４に上記第１のクリップ４１及び上記第２のクリップ４２を連結する連結部４３を設け、第１のクリップ４１及び第２のクリップ４２の水平面方向における回転及びこれに伴う固定用クリップ４の保持力の低下を防止し、着座センサ３をシートパン２に確実に取り付けることを可能としている。 Here, in the present embodiment, the first fixing hole 22 is formed as a long hole, but the direction in which the pair of claw portions 413 and 414 protrudes and the long axis direction of the long hole intersect each other. If this cannot be maintained, the holding force of the fixing clip 4 will be significantly reduced. Therefore, in the present embodiment, a connecting portion 43 that connects the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 to the fixing clip 4 is provided, and the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 are rotated in the horizontal plane direction. And the fall of the holding force of the clip 4 for fixation accompanying this is prevented, and it makes it possible to attach the seating sensor 3 to the seat pan 2 reliably.
　また、本実施形態に係る着座センサ３の固定構造においては、上記第１のクリップ４１だけでなく、第２のクリップ４２にも、両者を結ぶ線分に対して交差する方向に張り出す爪部４２３及び４２４が形成されている。即ち、第１のクリップ４１及び第２のクリップ４２の両者に、このように爪部を設けることによって、固定用クリップ４の向きを気にすることなく着座センサ３に固定用クリップ４を取り付けることが可能となり、取付誤差を防止すると共に作業性を向上させることが可能となる。また、本実施形態においては、爪部４１３及び４１４の張り出す方向が、第１のクリップ４１及び第２のクリップ４２を結ぶ線分に対して直交している。従って、クリップの保持力を効果的に高めることが可能である。 Further, in the fixing structure of the seating sensor 3 according to the present embodiment, not only the first clip 41 but also the second clip 42 has a claw portion that protrudes in a direction intersecting the line segment connecting the two. 423 and 424 are formed. That is, by providing the claw portion on both the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 in this way, the fixing clip 4 is attached to the seating sensor 3 without worrying about the direction of the fixing clip 4. Thus, it is possible to prevent mounting errors and improve workability. In the present embodiment, the protruding direction of the claw portions 413 and 414 is orthogonal to the line segment connecting the first clip 41 and the second clip 42. Therefore, it is possible to effectively increase the holding force of the clip.
　更に、図６を参照して説明した通り、本実施形態に係る固定用クリップ４は、軸対称に形成されている。従って、固定用クリップ４の向きを気にすることなく着座センサ３に固定用クリップ４を取り付けることが可能となり、作業性を向上させることが可能となる。 Furthermore, as described with reference to FIG. 6, the fixing clip 4 according to the present embodiment is formed to be axially symmetric. Therefore, it becomes possible to attach the fixing clip 4 to the seating sensor 3 without worrying about the direction of the fixing clip 4, and it is possible to improve workability.
