Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a clip device.

A trim member is provided at the door opening of a vehicle to cover the bare surface or welded portion of the strength member, but the trim member is usually held in place by a clip device that holds the flange of the strength member. There is.

The above-mentioned trim member covers and supports the periphery of the vehicle's interior parts, so it needs to be removed if the interior part is damaged. However, since the clip device is usually only designed to attach the trim member, when removing the trim member, the trim member must be removed. There was a problem that the product broke or bent, making it unsuitable for reuse.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, and provides a clip device in which a first strength member and a second strength member are welded at their flange portions, and a trim member is engaged with the flange portions, between the two flange portions. a first side piece and a second side piece disposed on the outer surface of each flange portion;
The gist of the clip device is that it includes a spring portion formed at the tip of each of the second side pieces, and an engaging portion that engages with the trim member at the tip of the spring portion.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5.

The inner flail 2 and the outer flail 4, which form the upper edge of the door opening at the edge of the roof structure of the vehicle, are welded by flanges 6 and 8, respectively. The flanges 6 and 8 have a plurality of gaps 10 that are partially unwelded along the longitudinal direction, and the gaps 10 are formed by the flanges 6 protruding inward in a stepped manner.

Reference numeral 14 indicates a clip device, which is formed by bending a metal plate, and includes a central tongue piece 16 inserted into the gap 10, and a clip device disposed on the inner flail 2 side that cooperates with the central tongue piece 16 to clip the flange 6. and outer pieces 20, 20, which are disposed on the outer flail 4 side and cooperate with the central tongue piece 16 to sandwich the flange 8. A bent part 22 is formed at the tip of the central tongue piece 16 and is cut out to be located inside the flanges 6 and 8, and a protrusion 24 is formed in the center to be cut out and protrude toward the flange 6. has been done.

The inner side piece 18 has a surface 26 along the flange 6;
It has a spring portion 28 that is bent and raised from the same surface 26 and an engaging portion 30 formed at the tip of the spring portion 28, and protrusions 32, 32 that protrude toward the flange 6 are formed on the surface 26. There is.

Each of the outer side pieces 20, 20 has a surface 34 along the flange 8, a spring portion 36 that is bent and formed from the same surface 34 and stands up, and an engaging portion 38 formed at the tip of the spring portion 36.

Reference numeral 40 denotes a trim member, which is a press-molded steel plate whose surface is covered with vinyl chloride, and which covers the flanges 6 and 8 and the clip device 14 and attaches to the engaging portions 30 and 38 of the clip device 14 at both end edges 42 and 44. are formed to engage with each other. 46 is head lining.

The clip device 14 is integrated with the trim member 40 in advance so that the engaging portions 30 and 38 engage with the trim member 40,
Thereafter, the central tongue piece 16 of the clip device 14 is inserted into the gap 10 between the flanges 6 and 8, and is prevented from coming off and held by the bent portion 22, projections 24, and projections 32 of the clip device 14.

At this time, the trim member 40 is formed to cover the end of the head lining 46.

When removing the trim member 40, insert the tip of a screwdriver or the like from the position shown by arrow A in FIG. The engagement is released and the trim member 40 is rotated as shown by arrow C and removed.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, the central tongue piece 16 of the clip device 14 having the central tongue piece 16, the inner side piece 18, and the outer side pieces 20, 20 is inserted into the gap 10 between the flanges 6, 8, and the protrusion is inserted into the gap 10 between the flanges 6, 8. 24, 32 to firmly engage the flanges 6, 8 to securely hold the trim member 40, and also to securely hold the trim member 40 and to prevent the spring portion 2 of the inner side piece 18
8 makes it extremely easy to remove the trim member 40, and has the effect of effectively preventing damage to the trim member 40.
