Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a roof head lining mounting structure for a vehicle, and in particular, a pair of roof side inner rails that are provided inside both left and right ends of a roof panel of a vehicle and extend in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A retainer is fixed to the inner side of the roof side inner rail and extends in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and a cloth-like lining body whose left and right ends extend to the retainer and covers the inner surface of the roof panel, and a cloth-like lining body that is provided on the upper surface of the lining body at appropriate intervals. A roof head lining consisting of a plurality of bag-shaped welts sewn together with a cylindrical shape and extending in the left-right direction of the vehicle is inserted through each of the welts and fixed to both roof side inner rails at both ends, and a roof head lining is inserted between the roof head linings and is fixed to both roof side inner rails at both ends. The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a so-called suspended ceiling type roof head lining, in which a wire for suspending and supporting the lining body and a fixture for fixing both left and right ends of the lining body to the retainer are used.

Conventionally, when assembling such a mounting structure, two workers simultaneously pull both left and right ends of the lining body of the roof head lining, which is suspended and supported by wires, to fix it to the retainer. . However, in such work, the tension points and forces are often different on the left and right sides, and the lining body is immediately fixed to the retainer while being pulled, making it impossible to adjust the tension. There are wrinkles on the skin.

The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and one embodiment thereof will be described below based on the drawings. FIG. 1 partially shows the right part of the mounting structure according to the present invention. In this mounting structure, a roof side inner rail 11 is provided inside the right end of the roof panel 10 and extends in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. A roof head lining 20 is stretched over a retainer 13 (see FIG. 2) which is secured to the inside of this with screws 12 and extends in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Note that the mounting structure of the left part (not shown) is symmetrical to the mounting structure of the right part (not shown). Further, the mounting structure of the front and rear portions (not shown) is the same as the conventional structure.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the roof head lining 20 has retainers 13 at both left and right ends.
A lining body 21 made of cloth, such as vinyl leather, extends to cover the inner surface of the roof panel 10, and a plurality of bag-shaped strong linings are sewn to the upper surface of the lining body 21 at appropriate intervals and extend in the left-right direction of the vehicle. Consists of 22 welts made of cotton fabric, each welt 2
2 is sewn to the overlapping portion of the lining body 21, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. This roof head lining 20 is suspended and supported by a wire 30 that is inserted through each welt 22 at the middle part and fixed at both ends by fitting into the hole 11a of the roof side inner rail 11. Both left and right end portions are fixed to the lower end of the retainer 13 with double-sided adhesive tape (not shown) and covered with a trim 31 so that the retainer 13 is stretched.

Therefore, in this embodiment, each welt 2
Both ends 22a, 22a of 2 are the lining main body 21
The strings are separated from each other by a predetermined length, and both ends of each welt 22, that is, the strings 2 are attached to the retainer 13.
Hook 13 for locking the ends of 2a and 22a
a are provided respectively. Therefore, when assembling, each wire 30 that has been inserted in advance into each welt 22 of the roof head lining 20 is fitted and fixed into the hole 11a of both the left and right roof side inner rails 11, and the wires 30 are inserted between the roof head lining 20 and Both ends of each welt 22, that is, the strings 22a, 22a, can be pulled and locked to the hook 13a while the parts are suspended and supported. In this case, even if the part to be pulled is the same on the left and right, and the pulling force is different on the left and right, the string 22a at that part is removed from the hook 13a, the tension is adjusted, and the string 22a is relatched to the hook 13a to reduce the pulling force. Since the left and right sides can be made the same, it is possible to prevent the generation of wrinkles in the middle part of the roof head lining 20. Note that the string 22a is locked to the hook 13a as follows.
This is accomplished by hooking and wrapping the end of the string 22a around the hook 13a, and pushing and bending the hook 13a outward. After the above-mentioned operations are completed, the left and right ends of the lining body 21 are attached to the retainer 1 with double-sided adhesive tape pasted on both sides in advance.
Wrap it around the bottom edge of 3 and fix it, and finally trim 31
Insert and complete the assembly.

In addition, in the above explanation, each welt 22
An example has been described in which a string 22a of a predetermined length that is optimal for easy grip and pulling is provided at both ends of each welt 22 after having been made long in advance. A string of a separate member may be fixedly provided, or a string of a predetermined length may be provided at the seam portion (overlapping portion) of the lining body 21 near both ends of each welt. In these cases as well, the cord and hook can be used to prevent wrinkles in the middle portion of the roof head lining in the same manner as in the above-described embodiments.

In short, in the present invention, in the mounting structure of the so-called suspended ceiling type roof head lining,
Strings of a predetermined length are provided at both ends of each welt in the roof het lining or at the seam portion of the lining body in the roof het lining close to this, and the ends of the strings are engaged with a retainer fixed to the inside of the roof side inner rail. The feature is that each has a hook for stopping.
As a result, in the present invention, when assembling the roof headlining, it is possible to make the pulling force the same on the left and right sides, and even if the pulling force is different on the left and right sides, the strings and hooks are used to reduce the pulling force. The left and right sides can be made the same, and the occurrence of wrinkles in the middle part of the roof head lining can be prevented.
