Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an insulator mounting structure for a vehicle roof lining.

Conventionally, in order to attach an insulator 2' to a vehicle roof lining 1', a retaining wire 4' inserted into a suspension bag 3' on the roof lining side is inserted through an opening 5' on the insulator side, as shown in the first figure. It is configured to be held and locked by a pair of substantially inverted L-shaped claws 6'a and 6'b on opposite sides of the holder 6'. However, with this mounting structure, since the claws 6'a and 6'b of the holder 6' protrude downward, there is a risk that they will hit the occupant's head in the event of a collision, and there is also a possibility that tension will be applied to the roof lining 1'. If the retaining wire 4' is inserted between the claws 6'a and 6'b, it will easily come off from between the claws 6'a and 6'b, and when the retaining wire 4' is fitted between the claws 6'a and 6'b, the claws 6'a and 6'b may be Since the retaining wire 4' must be pressed in between, the claws 6'a and 6'b are likely to be damaged.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an improved structure for mounting an insulator to a vehicle roof lining to eliminate such drawbacks.

That is, in the insulator mounting structure according to the present invention, the insulator is stacked on the roof lining by partially bending the hanging bag into which the resting wire is inserted, and the hanging bag is placed over the roof lining. The insulator is integrally attached to the roof lining by holding the folded portion of the insulator from the left and right sides with clips that are approximately U-shaped in plan and have retaining teeth on the inner edges.

This will be explained below based on the second illustrated embodiment.

In the illustrated mounting structure, when attaching the insulator 2 to the roof lining 1, the hanging bags 4 formed for inserting the resting wires 3 at regular intervals on the roof lining are held by partially bending the insulator 2. , the bent base holding the hanging bag 4 is held by clips 5 from the left and right sides.

The clip 5 has a substantially U-shaped main body, and has reversely serrated retaining teeth 5a and 5b on its inner edge.
It is integrally molded. To use this clip 5 to stop the bent portion 2a of the insulator 2 holding the hanging bag 4, hold the standing base side of the bent portion 2a in the opening formed with the retaining teeth 5a and 5b. It is firmly held from the left and right by the extraction prevention teeth 5a and 5b. In this state, the clip 5 is located below the resting wire 3, so the roof lining 1
Even if a downward pulling force is applied, the hanging bag 4 will not be pulled out, and even if a tensile force is applied in the plane direction of the roof lining 1, the lower edge of the hanging bag 4 will receive tension at the sewn part. Therefore, it does not work to widen the gap between the clamping openings of the clip 5.

As described above, according to the insulator mounting structure for a vehicle roof lining according to the present invention, it is easy to attach the clip, and no tensile force is applied to the clip in the direction of detachment, and the clip can be securely clamped by the retaining teeth. Easy to transport with the insulator attached to the roof lining,
Furthermore, assembly is possible without creating dangerous protrusions.
