モール本体の長手方向の端部にエンドキャップが取り付けられる。エンドキャップは、蓋部によってモール本体の開放端面を塞いだ状態で、モール本体から脱落しないように抜け止めされる。モール本体に対するエンドキャップの抜け止め構造として接着やカシメが知られているが、こうした従来技術よりも取り付け作業性を向上させるものとして、モール本体側に形成した被係合部とエンドキャップ側に設けた係合部を係合させる構成が特許文献1に記載されている。より詳しくは、モール本体側の被係合部として、車内側壁の一部を切り欠いて切欠溝を設けている。エンドキャップは、蓋部から突出して意匠壁と車内側壁の間の溝状部内に挿入される挿入部と、挿入部よりも車内側壁に近く位置して溝状部内に挿入される棒部を有しており、モール本体側の切欠溝に係合可能な突部が棒部の先端に設けられている。挿入部と共に棒部をモール本体の溝状部内に挿入するときに、突部が車内側壁の車外側の面(意匠壁側を向く面)に乗り上げて棒部が車外側(意匠壁側)に向けて弾性変形する。棒部がモール本体の溝状部内に所定量挿入されると、棒部が弾性変形状態から復帰しながら突部を切欠溝に係合させて抜け止め状態になる。
An end cap is attached to the longitudinal end of the mall body. The end cap is prevented from coming off from the molding body in a state where the open end surface of the molding body is closed by the lid. Adhesion and caulking are known as an end cap retaining structure for the molding body. To improve the mounting workability compared to the conventional technology, it is provided on the engaged part formed on the molding body side and the end cap side. Patent Document 1 describes a configuration for engaging the engaging portions. More specifically, as an engaged portion on the molding body side, a part of the vehicle inner side wall is cut out to provide a cutout groove. The end cap has an insertion portion that protrudes from the lid portion and is inserted into a groove-shaped portion between the design wall and the vehicle inner wall, and a rod portion that is positioned closer to the vehicle inner wall than the insertion portion and is inserted into the groove-shaped portion.

The protruding portion 54b has an extended shape extending forward from the engaging surface 54c, a first tapered surface (deformed guide surface) 54d is formed on the upper surface side of the protruding portion 54b, and a first taper surface (deformed guide surface) is formed on the inner side of the protruding portion 54b. Two tapered surfaces 54e are formed. The first tapered surface 54d is an inclined surface that gradually increases the amount of protrusion upward as it advances rearward from the tip (front end) of the protrusion 54b (away from the extension 52d and approaches the engagement surface 54c). . The second taper surface 54e is an inclined surface that gradually increases the amount of protrusion toward the vehicle interior as it advances rearward from the tip (front end) of the protrusion 54b (away from the extension 52d and approaches the engagement surface 54c). Yes.
図4はベルトモール21にエンドキャップ50を取り付ける前の状態を示しており、図2と図3はベルトモール21にエンドキャップ50を取り付けた状態を示している。エンドキャップ50は、ベルトモール21の長手方向に沿って挿入部52を溝状部25内に挿入させながら取り付けられ、蓋部51がベルトモール21の後端面に当接する挿入完了位置(図2、図3)まで達すると、図8に示すように、エンドキャップ50側の係合部54がベルトモール21側の被係合面36(凹部37)に係合して抜け止め状態になる。
4 shows a state before the end cap 50 is attached to the belt molding 21, and FIGS. 2 and 3 show a state where the end cap 50 is attached to the belt molding 21. FIG. The end cap 50 is attached while inserting the insertion portion 52 into the groove-shaped portion 25 along the longitudinal direction of the belt molding 21, and the insertion completion position where the lid portion 51 contacts the rear end surface of the belt molding 21 (FIG. 2, When reaching to FIG. 3), as shown in FIG. 8, the engaging portion 54 on the end cap 50 side engages with the engaged surface 36 (recessed portion 37) on the belt molding 21 side to be in a retaining state.
より詳しくは、図7に示すように、エンドキャップ50の挿入部52は、ベルトモール21の意匠壁22に沿って車外側部52aが挿入され、ベルトモール21の車内側壁23に沿って車内側部52bが挿入される。この挿入状態で、挿入部52の車外側部52aが支持突部28に対して上方から当接し、車内側部52bが上壁24に対して下方から当接して、ベルトモール21に対するエンドキャップ50の倒れ(ベルトモール21の長手方向に向く軸回りの回転)が規制される。また、図7に示すように、エンドキャップ50の外観部53の前方突出部53bが、ベルトモール21における意匠壁22と上壁24を車外側から覆う。
More specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, the insertion portion 52 of the end cap 50 has the vehicle outer side portion 52 a inserted along the design wall 22 of the belt molding 21 and the vehicle inner side along the vehicle inner side wall 23 of the belt molding 21. The part 52b is inserted. In this inserted state, the vehicle outer side portion 52a of the insertion portion 52 abuts against the support protrusion 28 from above, and the vehicle inner side portion 52b abuts against the upper wall 24 from below, so that the end cap 50 against the belt molding 21 is obtained. Fall (rotation around the axis of the belt molding 21 in the longitudinal direction) is restricted. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 7, the front protrusion part 53b of the external appearance part 53 of the end cap 50 covers the design wall 22 and the upper wall 24 in the belt molding 21 from the vehicle outer side.
図3や図7に示すように、エンドキャップ50の係合部54は、ベルトモール21の短壁部34のカット面35の下方に位置している。そのため、挿入部52をベルトモール21の溝状部25内に挿入する際に、係合部54の第1テーパ面54dが短壁部34のカット面35に当接し、エンドキャップ50に対して挿入方向(前方)に力を加えると、第1テーパ面54dの傾斜形状によって係合部54を下方に押す分力が発生する。この分力によって係合部54が下方に向けて弾性変形される。蓋部51がベルトモール21の後端面に当接する挿入完了位置までエンドキャップ50を挿入すると、図2や図3に示すように係合部54の突起部54bがベルトモール21の凹部37に対応する位置に達し、係合部54が下方への弾性変形から復帰しようとして対向部54aがカット面35に接近(当接)した状態(図7、図8)になる。その結果、図8に示すように、ベルトモール21の長手方向において係合部54の係合面54cが被係合面36に対向し(突起部54bが凹部37に進入し)、被係合面36に対する係合面54cの当接によって、ベルトモール21に対する後方へのエンドキャップ50の移動(脱落)が規制された抜け止め状態となる。
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 7, the engaging portion 54 of the end cap 50 is located below the cut surface 35 of the short wall portion 34 of the belt molding 21. Therefore, when the insertion portion 52 is inserted into the groove-shaped portion 25 of the belt molding 21, the first tapered surface 54 d of the engagement portion 54 comes into contact with the cut surface 35 of the short wall portion 34, and the end cap 50 is When a force is applied in the insertion direction (forward), a component force is generated that pushes the engaging portion 54 downward due to the inclined shape of the first tapered surface 54d. Due to this component force, the engaging portion 54 is elastically deformed downward. When the end cap 50 is inserted to the insertion completion position where the lid portion 51 comes into contact with the rear end surface of the belt molding 21, the protrusion 54b of the engaging portion 54 corresponds to the recess 37 of the belt molding 21 as shown in FIGS. When the engaging portion 54 is about to return from the downward elastic deformation, the facing portion 54a approaches (contacts) the cut surface 35 (FIGS. 7 and 8). As a result, as shown in FIG. 8, the engaging surface 54c of the engaging portion 54 faces the engaged surface 36 in the longitudinal direction of the belt molding 21 (the protruding portion 54b enters the recess 37), and the engaged portion Due to the contact of the engagement surface 54c with the surface 36, the end cap 50 is prevented from moving backward (removed) with respect to the belt molding 21.
図2に示すように、ベルトモール21に対してエンドキャップ50を取り付けた状態ではさらに、延長部52dの下面が振れ止め突起30に当接して(延長部52dが振れ止め突起30上に乗り上げて)、延長部52dに連続して位置する係合部54が下方に弾性変形することを規制する。これにより、係合面54cと被係合面36が係合するエンドキャップ50の抜け止め状態を確実に維持させることができる。図7に示すように、係合部54は車幅方向においてカット面35よりも幅広に形成されており、係合部54の一部が溝状部25内に入り込んでいる。係合部54に続く延長部52dも同様に溝状部25内に入り込んでいるが、延長部52dは、第2テーパ面54eによって車外側に絞りこまれている分、車幅方向において係合部54よりも幅狭になっている(図2、図5参照)。そのため、延長部52dは、車内側壁23と干渉することなく、車内側壁23から車外側に突出する振れ止め突起30上に当接することが可能である。図6に示すように、振れ止め突起30の上面側は略水平な面となっており、この略水平な面によって延長部52dを支持するので安定した当接状態を維持できる。なお、延長部52dを下方から支持して弾性変形を規制可能な形状であれば、振れ止め突起30の上面側を略水平な面以外の形状にすることもできる。例えば、振れ止め突起30の上面側を、車内側壁23から離れて車外側に進むにつれて上方への傾きを大きくする傾斜面にしてもよい。
As shown in FIG. 2, in the state where the end cap 50 is attached to the belt molding 21, the lower surface of the extension portion 52 d abuts against the steady-state protrusion 30 (the extension portion 52 d rides on the steady-state projection 30. ), The engagement portion 54 positioned continuously with the extension portion 52d is restricted from being elastically deformed downward. Thereby, the end cap 50 in which the engagement surface 54c and the engaged surface 36 are engaged can be reliably maintained. As shown in FIG. 7, the engaging portion 54 is formed wider than the cut surface 35 in the vehicle width direction, and a part of the engaging portion 54 enters the groove-like portion 25. Similarly, the extended portion 52d following the engaging portion 54 also enters the groove-like portion 25. However, the extended portion 52d is engaged in the vehicle width direction as much as it is squeezed to the vehicle outer side by the second tapered surface 54e. It is narrower than the portion 54 (see FIGS. 2 and 5). Therefore, the extension 52d can abut on the steady-state protrusion 30 that projects outward from the vehicle inner wall 23 without interfering with the vehicle inner wall 23. As shown in FIG. 6, the upper surface side of the steady rest projection 30 is a substantially horizontal surface, and the extended portion 52d is supported by this substantially horizontal surface, so that a stable contact state can be maintained. In addition, as long as the extension part 52d is supported from the lower side and elastic deformation can be regulated, the upper surface side of the steady-state protrusion 30 can be formed in a shape other than a substantially horizontal surface. For example, the upper surface side of the steady rest projection 30 may be an inclined surface that increases upward as it moves away from the vehicle inner side wall 23 toward the vehicle exterior.
また、図7に示すように、エンドキャップ50をベルトモール21に取り付けると、エンドキャップ50の外観部53(前方突出部53b)と係合部54(対向部54a)によって、ベルトモール21の短壁部34を上下から挟んだ状態となる。この構成もエンドキャップ50の安定した取り付けの実現に寄与する。
Further, as shown in FIG. 7, when the end cap 50 is attached to the belt molding 21, the belt cap 21 is shortened by the appearance portion 53 (front projecting portion 53 b) and the engaging portion 54 (opposing portion 54 a) of the end cap 50. The wall 34 is sandwiched from above and below. This configuration also contributes to the realization of stable attachment of the end cap 50.
エンドキャップ50の外観部53は、ベルトモール21の後端付近の外側を覆う前方突出部53bに加えて、ベルトモール21の後端よりも後方に突出する後方突出部53aを有しているため、エンドキャップ50がベルトモール21と共にドアパネル12の上縁部(被着部20)に取り付けられた状態(図1)において、ベルトモール21の後端部分の継ぎ目が外観に表れないように外観部53によって覆うことができる。
The outer appearance portion 53 of the end cap 50 has a rear protrusion 53 a that protrudes rearward from the rear end of the belt molding 21 in addition to the front protrusion 53 b that covers the outside in the vicinity of the rear end of the belt molding 21. In the state where the end cap 50 is attached to the upper edge portion (attached portion 20) of the door panel 12 together with the belt molding 21 (FIG. 1), the outer portion of the outer portion of the belt molding 21 is prevented from appearing in the appearance. 53.
以上のように本実施形態では、ベルトモール21へのエンドキャップ50の挿入に際して、エンドキャップ50に設けた係合部54が、ベルトモール21のカット面35から離れる下方に弾性変形してから突起部54b(係合面54c)をベルトモール21の凹部37(被係合面36)に係合させる。このときの係合部54の弾性変形の方向は、車内側壁23の壁面に沿う上下方向であるため、車幅方向に大きなスペースを要さずに係合部54の係合動作を行わせることができる。また、車内側壁23のうち下方への突出量が小さい短壁部34の下方領域で係合部54が弾性変形するため、上下方向においても係合部54を弾性変形させるための余分なスペースを確保する必要がない。ベルトモール21の被係合面36に対する係合部54の係合は、エンドキャップ50をベルトモール21の長手方向に挿入するだけで行わせることができるので、エンドキャップ50の取り付けの作業性にも優れている。従って、省スペースな抜け止め構造によってベルトモール21やエンドキャップ50の設置やデザインの自由度を向上させることができると共に、エンドキャップ50の取り付け易さも実現することができる。
As described above, in this embodiment, when the end cap 50 is inserted into the belt molding 21, the engaging portion 54 provided on the end cap 50 is elastically deformed downward away from the cut surface 35 of the belt molding 21 and then protrudes. The portion 54b (engagement surface 54c) is engaged with the recess 37 (engaged surface 36) of the belt molding 21. Since the direction of elastic deformation of the engaging portion 54 at this time is the vertical direction along the wall surface of the vehicle inner wall 23, the engaging portion 54 can be engaged without requiring a large space in the vehicle width direction. Can do. Further, since the engaging portion 54 is elastically deformed in a region below the short wall portion 34 with a small downward protrusion amount in the vehicle inner side wall 23, an extra space for elastically deforming the engaging portion 54 in the vertical direction is also provided. There is no need to secure. The engagement of the engagement portion 54 with the engaged surface 36 of the belt molding 21 can be performed only by inserting the end cap 50 in the longitudinal direction of the belt molding 21. Is also excellent. Accordingly, the space-saving retaining structure can improve the degree of freedom of installation and design of the belt molding 21 and the end cap 50, and can also facilitate the attachment of the end cap 50.
エンドキャップ50の取り付けに際して係合部54は、基本的には前述のように下方に向けて弾性変形するが、第2テーパ面54eの傾斜形状を利用して車外側へ弾性変形させることも可能である。図2や図3に示すように、エンドキャップ50の通常の取り付け状態では、第2テーパ面54eに対してベルトモール21のいずれの部分も接触しないが、仮に部品の精度誤差などでベルトモール21の一部(例えば凹部37よりも前方の車内側壁23の一部)が係合部54と干渉を生じる位置にある場合、ベルトモール21の当該部分に第2テーパ面54eを当接させ、第2テーパ面54eの傾斜形状を利用して係合部54を車外側にわずかに弾性変形させて、干渉を防ぐことができる。挿入部52における孔部52cの下方を橋絡する形状の係合部54(及び延長部52d)は、このような車幅方向の弾性変形も可能である。
When the end cap 50 is attached, the engaging portion 54 is basically elastically deformed downward as described above, but can be elastically deformed to the outside of the vehicle by using the inclined shape of the second tapered surface 54e. It is. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in the normal attachment state of the end cap 50, no part of the belt molding 21 contacts the second tapered surface 54e. Part (for example, part of the vehicle inner side wall 23 ahead of the recess 37) is in a position where it interferes with the engaging part 54, the second tapered surface 54e is brought into contact with the part of the belt molding 21, By utilizing the inclined shape of the two tapered surfaces 54e, the engaging portion 54 can be slightly elastically deformed to the outside of the vehicle to prevent interference. The engagement portion 54 (and the extension portion 52d) shaped to bridge the lower portion of the hole portion 52c in the insertion portion 52 can be elastically deformed in the vehicle width direction.
以上に説明した実施形態では、ベルトモール21側の被係合面36とエンドキャップ50側の係合面54cがいずれもベルトモール21の長手方向と略直交する面であるが(図8参照)、係合によってエンドキャップを抜け止めする面は、モールの長手方向と直交する面に限られるものではなく、少なくともモールの長手方向と交差する成分を含んでいればよい。ベルトモール21側とエンドキャップ50の側の係合部分の形状を異ならせた変形例を図9と図10に示す。これらの変形例は、図9と図10に示す部分以外の構成は、先の実施形態と共通している。
In the embodiment described above, the engaged surface 36 on the belt molding 21 side and the engaging surface 54c on the end cap 50 side are both surfaces that are substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the belt molding 21 (see FIG. 8). The surface that prevents the end cap from coming off by engagement is not limited to a surface that is orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the molding, and it is sufficient that it includes at least a component that intersects the longitudinal direction of the molding. 9 and 10 show modifications in which the shapes of the engaging portions on the belt molding 21 side and the end cap 50 side are different. In these modified examples, configurations other than the portions shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 are common to the previous embodiment.
図9に示す実施形態では、エンドキャップ50の係合部54に、先の実施形態の係合面54cに代えて、第1テーパ面54dと逆方向に傾斜する傾斜係合面54fを設けている。ベルトモール21の短壁部34には、傾斜係合面54fに当接する係合角部38を設けている。そして傾斜係合面54fと係合角部38の係合によってベルトモール21に対するエンドキャップ50の抜け止めを行う。抜け止め状態において、係合部54には下方への弾性変形状態から復帰させようとする上方へ向けての復元力が働いている。この上方への復元力は傾斜係合面54fを係合角部38に押し付け、傾斜係合面54fの傾斜に応じた分力を生じさせる。具体的には、係合部54をさらに上方へ引き込もうとする分力と、係合部54を前方(挿入部52の挿入方向)に押し込もうとする分力が働く。そのため、ベルトモール21に対する係合部54の係合安定性が向上すると共に、ベルトモール21の端面に対するエンドキャップ50の蓋部51の密着度(図3参照)を高めることができる。
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 9, the engaging portion 54 of the end cap 50 is provided with an inclined engaging surface 54f inclined in the direction opposite to the first tapered surface 54d, instead of the engaging surface 54c of the previous embodiment. Yes. The short wall portion 34 of the belt molding 21 is provided with an engagement corner portion 38 that contacts the inclined engagement surface 54f. Then, the end cap 50 is prevented from coming off from the belt molding 21 by the engagement between the inclined engagement surface 54f and the engagement corner portion 38. In the retaining state, an upward restoring force is exerted on the engaging portion 54 so as to recover from the downward elastic deformation state. This upward restoring force presses the inclined engagement surface 54f against the engagement corner portion 38, and generates a component force corresponding to the inclination of the inclined engagement surface 54f. Specifically, a component force that tries to pull the engagement portion 54 further upward and a component force that tries to push the engagement portion 54 forward (in the insertion direction of the insertion portion 52) work. Therefore, the engagement stability of the engaging portion 54 with respect to the belt molding 21 is improved, and the degree of adhesion of the lid portion 51 of the end cap 50 to the end surface of the belt molding 21 (see FIG. 3) can be increased.
図10に示す実施形態では、ベルトモール21の短壁部34に、先の各実施形態の被係合面36や係合角部38に代えて、第1テーパ面54dと逆方向に傾斜する傾斜係合面39を設けている。エンドキャップ50の係合部54には、傾斜係合面39に当接する係合角部54gを設けている。そして傾斜係合面39と係合角部54gの係合によってベルトモール21に対するエンドキャップ50の抜け止めを行う。図9における傾斜係合面54fと同様に、図10における傾斜係合面39は、係合部54に対して働く上方へ向けての復元力から、係合部54をさらに上方へ引き込もうとする分力と係合部54を前方(挿入部52の挿入方向)に押し込もうとする分力を生じさせる形状の面である。そのため、ベルトモール21に対する係合部54の係合安定性の向上と、ベルトモール21の端面に対するエンドキャップ50の蓋部51の密着度(図3参照)の向上を実現できる。
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, the short wall portion 34 of the belt molding 21 is inclined in the direction opposite to the first tapered surface 54 d instead of the engaged surface 36 and the engaging corner portion 38 of each of the previous embodiments. An inclined engagement surface 39 is provided. The engagement portion 54 of the end cap 50 is provided with an engagement corner portion 54g that contacts the inclined engagement surface 39. Then, the end cap 50 is prevented from coming off from the belt molding 21 by the engagement between the inclined engagement surface 39 and the engagement corner portion 54g. Similar to the inclined engagement surface 54 f in FIG. 9, the inclined engagement surface 39 in FIG. 10 tries to draw the engagement portion 54 further upward due to the upward restoring force acting on the engagement portion 54. It is the surface of the shape which produces the component force which tries to push in the component force and the engaging part 54 ahead (insertion direction of the insertion part 52). Therefore, it is possible to improve the engagement stability of the engagement portion 54 with respect to the belt molding 21 and to improve the adhesion (see FIG. 3) of the lid portion 51 of the end cap 50 to the end surface of the belt molding 21.
以上、図示実施形態に基づき本発明を説明したが、本発明は図示した実施形態に限定されるものではなく、発明の要旨を逸脱しない限りにおいて改良や改変が可能である。例えば、図示実施形態は自動車の後部座席用ドア10に取り付けられるベルトモール21とエンドキャップ50への適用例であるが、前部座席用ドアやその他の車両用ドアなどに取り付けられるモールについても本発明を適用できる。
Although the present invention has been described based on the illustrated embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiment, and can be improved or modified without departing from the gist of the invention. For example, the illustrated embodiment is an example applied to the belt molding 21 and the end cap 50 that are attached to the rear seat door 10 of an automobile, but the present invention is also applicable to a molding that is attached to a front seat door or other vehicle doors. The invention can be applied.
図示実施形態のエンドキャップ50はベルトモール21の後端側に取り付けられるが、本発明は、モールの長手方向のいずれの端部にエンドキャップを取り付ける場合にも適用が可能である。
Although the end cap 50 of the illustrated embodiment is attached to the rear end side of the belt molding 21, the present invention can be applied to the case where the end cap is attached to any end in the longitudinal direction of the molding.
図示実施形態では、エンドキャップ50が挿入完了位置に達したときに、ベルトモール21の車内側壁23から車外側に突出する振れ止め突起30が延長部52dに当接して、下方への係合部54への弾性変形を規制するが、係合部54の下方への弾性変形を規制するための当接箇所は振れ止め突起30と延長部52d以外の部位に設定することもできる。例えば、車内側壁23から凹部37側(ベルトモール21の長手方向)に突出する突起を設け、エンドキャップ50の挿入完了位置において、この突起を下方から係合部54(突起部54b)に当接させてもよい。
In the illustrated embodiment, when the end cap 50 reaches the insertion completion position, the steady-state projection 30 that protrudes from the vehicle inner side wall 23 of the belt molding 21 to the vehicle outer side contacts the extension portion 52d, and the engagement portion downwards. Although the elastic deformation to 54 is restricted, the contact part for restricting the elastic deformation to the downward direction of the engaging part 54 can also be set in parts other than the steady rest protrusion 30 and the extension part 52d. For example, a protrusion that protrudes from the vehicle inner side wall 23 toward the recess 37 (longitudinal direction of the belt molding 21) is provided, and the protrusion is brought into contact with the engagement portion 54 (protrusion portion 54b) from below at the insertion completion position of the end cap 50. You may let them.
以上に詳述したように本発明の車両用モールは、エンドキャップの蓋部がモール本体の長手方向の端部に当接する挿入完了位置まで挿入されたときに、エンドキャップの係合部がモール本体の被係合面に係合して、モール本体に対するエンドキャップの長手方向への抜け止めを行う。エンドキャップの係合部は、モール本体の被係合面と係合する際に、モール本体の溝状部の開口方向に向けて弾性変形する。これにより、モール本体の意匠壁と車内側壁を結ぶ方向(車幅方向)での省スペースな構成と、エンドキャップの取り付け易さを両立させて、車両用モールのデザイン性や生産性の向上に寄与することができる。
As described above in detail, the vehicular molding of the present invention is such that when the end cap lid portion is inserted to the insertion completion position where it abuts the longitudinal end of the molding body, the engagement portion of the end cap is the molding. Engage with the engaged surface of the main body to prevent the end cap from coming off in the longitudinal direction with respect to the molding main body. The engaging portion of the end cap is elastically deformed toward the opening direction of the groove-shaped portion of the molding main body when engaging with the engaged surface of the molding main body. As a result, the space-saving configuration in the direction (vehicle width direction) connecting the design wall of the molding body to the inner wall of the car and the ease of attaching the end caps are compatible, improving the design and productivity of the vehicle molding. Can contribute.
