Description

本発明は、エアバッグ展開用扉部を有するインストルメントパネルにブラケットを接合する方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a method of joining a bracket to an instrument panel having an airbag deployment door.

従来エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルにおいて、エアバッグモジュールとインストルメントパネルを組み付ける部品(以後、ブラケットと記す。)は金属であり、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルは樹脂製であったが、ブラケットの重量が大きく、リサイクル性が悪かった為に、ブラケットを樹脂製に変更したが、ブラケットの剛性が大きくなりすぎ、エアバッグの展開時にエアバッグリッドが飛散してしまう等、製品性能を満たさなかった。そこで、ブラケットを熱可塑性エラストマー製にして、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルとの接合においては振動溶着を行っていた。しかし、従来の方法では接合の際に圧力と振動を加える為、インストルメントパネル全体(特にテア加工部分)にダメージが発生し、外観低下に繋がる。又、加工時の発熱量が大きい為、加工後のソリ発生等の原因となる。   Conventionally, in an airbag panel integrated instrument panel, a part (hereinafter referred to as a bracket) for assembling the airbag module and the instrument panel is metal, and the airbag door integrated instrument panel is made of resin. Because the bracket was heavy and its recyclability was poor, the bracket was changed to resin, but the bracket's rigidity became too great and the air bag grid would scatter when the airbag was deployed. It was. Therefore, the bracket is made of a thermoplastic elastomer, and vibration welding is performed in joining with the airbag door integrated instrument panel. However, in the conventional method, pressure and vibration are applied at the time of joining, so that the entire instrument panel (particularly the teared portion) is damaged, leading to a decrease in appearance. In addition, since the amount of heat generated during processing is large, it may cause warpage after processing.

このような課題を解決する為の従来技術として、レーザ溶着を用いたものがあった。(特許文献1)   As a conventional technique for solving such a problem, there has been a technique using laser welding. (Patent Document 1)

特開2002−316608JP2002-316608

本出願の課題は、従来の技術では、エアバッグリッド飛散防止の為に設置するヒンジ部材とエアバッグリッドとを接合する為にレーザ溶着を行っていたが、本発明においては、従来金属製のブラケットを使用してきたが、軽量化及びリサイクル性向上の為にブラケットをエラストマー製に変更したときに、振動溶着によって接合してきたものにレーザ溶着を使用するものである。 The problem of the present application is that, in the prior art, laser welding is performed to join the hinge member and the air grid to be installed to prevent the air grid from scattering, but in the present invention, a metal bracket is conventionally used. Although it has been used, laser welding is used for what has been joined by vibration welding when the bracket is changed to an elastomer to reduce weight and improve recyclability.

上記課題を解決する請求項1に係る発明は、エアバッグ用開口部を有し、レーザ吸収性を有する樹脂からなる自動車用内装材と、レーザ透過性を有する樹脂製のブラケットとを重ね、この状態でブラケット側からレーザ光を照射して前記自動車用内装材を加熱溶融せしめ前記ブラケットと溶着する自動車用内装品の製造方法にある。 The invention according to claim 1 for solving the above-mentioned problem is that an automobile interior material made of a resin having an air bag opening and having a laser absorptivity and a resin-made bracket having a laser transmission property are overlapped. In this state, there is a method for manufacturing an automobile interior product in which the automotive interior material is heated and melted by irradiating a laser beam from the bracket side and welded to the bracket.

The method according to claim 2, which comprises a polyolefin thermoplastic elastomer.

請求項4に記載の発明は、前記ブラケットにリブを設け、該リブと自動車用内装材とを融着する請求項1から3のいずれかに記載の自動車用内装品の製造方法にある。 According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for manufacturing an automobile interior product according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein a rib is provided on the bracket, and the rib and the automobile interior material are fused.

請求項1に記載の発明は、エアバッグ用開口部を有し、レーザ吸収性を有する樹脂からなる自動車用内装材と、レーザ透過性を有する樹脂製のブラケットとを重ね、この状態でブラケット側からレーザ光を照射して前記自動車用内装材を加熱溶融せしめ前記ブラケットと溶着する自動車用内装品の製造方法であることから、製品に余分な力が掛かることが無く、又、発熱範囲が局所的であるので、接合時にティアライン加工部分の白化や変形がしにくいという効果がある。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, an automobile interior material made of a resin having an airbag opening and made of a laser-absorbing resin and a resin-made bracket having a laser permeability are stacked, and in this state, the bracket side Therefore, it is possible to heat and melt the automotive interior material and weld it to the bracket so that no excessive force is applied to the product and the heat generation range is locally Therefore, there is an effect that it is difficult to whiten or deform the tear line processed portion at the time of joining.

請求項2に記載の発明は、前記自動車用内装材が熱可塑性樹脂製のエアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルであり、前記ブラケットが熱可塑性エラストマー製である請求項1に記載の自動車用内装品の製造方法にあることから、よりレーザ溶着が確実に行われるという効果がある。 According to a second aspect of the present invention, the automobile interior material is an airbag door integrated instrument panel made of a thermoplastic resin, and the bracket is made of a thermoplastic elastomer. Therefore, there is an effect that laser welding is more reliably performed.

請求項3に記載の発明は、前記エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルが、ポリプロピレン樹脂、ABS樹脂、ポリウレタン樹脂、ポリカーボネート樹脂、熱可塑性ポリオレフィン樹脂のうちから選ばれた少なくとも一つであり、前記ブラケットがポリオレフィン熱可塑性エラストマーからなる請求項2に記載の自動車用内装品の製造方法であることから、より溶着強度が大きくなる。 According to a third aspect of the present invention, the airbag door integrated instrument panel is at least one selected from polypropylene resin, ABS resin, polyurethane resin, polycarbonate resin, and thermoplastic polyolefin resin, and the bracket. Since it is a manufacturing method of the interior product for motor vehicles of Claim 2 which consists of polyolefin thermoplastic elastomer, welding strength becomes larger.

以下、図面を参照しつつ本発明の実施形態を説明する。図1は本発明に係るエアバッグドア一体インストルメントパネル1の概略図である。図2は、ブラケット7の概略図である。図3はエアバッグドア一体インストルメントパネル1とブラケット7とを溶着した状態を示した断面図である。図4は本発明のインストルメントパネル一体型エアバッグドア1の製造方法を示した概略図である。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic view of an instrument panel 1 integrated with an airbag door according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the bracket 7. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the airbag door integrated instrument panel 1 and the bracket 7 are welded. FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing a method of manufacturing the instrument panel integrated airbag door 1 of the present invention.

図示しないエアバッグモジュールとエアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネル1とを接合するために図2に示すブラケット7を用いる。図1のエアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネル1と図2に示すブラケット7を一体化したものが図3に示されている。このとき、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネル1とブラケット7とを接合する為にレーザを用いるが、平面同士を接合するよりもブラケット7にリブ9を設けて、リブ9先端をヒートスポット部としてレーザ光をより多く吸収するようにした方が好ましい。   A bracket 7 shown in FIG. 2 is used to join an unillustrated airbag module and the airbag door integrated instrument panel 1. FIG. 3 shows an integrated instrument panel 1 with the airbag door of FIG. 1 and the bracket 7 shown in FIG. At this time, a laser is used to join the airbag door integrated instrument panel 1 and the bracket 7, but the rib 9 is provided on the bracket 7 rather than joining the flat surfaces, and the tip of the rib 9 is used as a heat spot portion. It is preferable to absorb more laser light.

図4から図6に示すように、レーザ光をブラケット7側から当て、ブラケット7を透過させてエアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネル1側でレーザ光を吸収し、リブ9先端部が溶融し、冷却してエアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネル1とブラケット7との溶着が終了する。   As shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the laser beam is applied from the bracket 7 side, transmitted through the bracket 7 and absorbed by the airbag door integrated instrument panel 1 side, and the tip of the rib 9 is melted, After cooling, the welding of the airbag door integrated instrument panel 1 and the bracket 7 is completed.

ここに、透過性エラストマーとしては、熱可塑性を有し、かつ、加熱源としてのレーザ光に対して所定以上の透過率を有するものであれば特に限定されない。例えば、ポリオレフィンエラストマー(TPO)、ポリウレタンエラストマー(TPU)、スチレン−ブタジエン系エラストマー(SBC)、ポリエステル系エラストマー(TPEE)、ポリ塩化ビニル系エラストマー(TPVC)等を挙げることができる。原価が低減できることと、リサイクル性の面からは、熱可塑性ポリオレフィンエラストマーを使用することが好ましい。更に、必要に応じて、ガラス繊維、カーボン繊維等の補強繊維や着色材を添加したものを用いても良い。   Here, the transmissive elastomer is not particularly limited as long as it has thermoplasticity and has a predetermined transmittance or more with respect to laser light as a heating source. Examples thereof include polyolefin elastomer (TPO), polyurethane elastomer (TPU), styrene-butadiene elastomer (SBC), polyester elastomer (TPEE), and polyvinyl chloride elastomer (TPVC). From the viewpoint of cost reduction and recyclability, it is preferable to use a thermoplastic polyolefin elastomer. Furthermore, you may use what added reinforcing fibers and coloring materials, such as glass fiber and carbon fiber, as needed.

上記吸収性樹脂材としては、熱可塑性を有し、加熱源としてのレーザ光に対して所定以上の吸収率を有するものであれば特に限定されない。例えばナイロン6(PA6)やナイロン66(PA66)等のポリアミド(PA)、ポリエチレン(PE)、ポリプロピレン(PP)やスチレン−アクリロニトリル共重合体、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)、ポリスチレン、ABS、アクリル(PMMA)、ポリプロピレンコンパウンド(PPC)、ポリブチレンテレフタレート(PBT)等にカーボンブラック、染料や顔料等の所定の着色材を混入したものを挙げることができる。尚、必要に応じて、ガラス繊維やカーボン繊維等の補強繊維を添加したものを用いてもよい。   The absorptive resin material is not particularly limited as long as it has thermoplasticity and has an absorptance greater than or equal to a predetermined level with respect to laser light as a heating source. For example, polyamide (PA) such as nylon 6 (PA6) and nylon 66 (PA66), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), styrene-acrylonitrile copolymer, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene, ABS, acrylic (PMMA) , Polypropylene compound (PPC), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and the like may be mixed with a predetermined colorant such as carbon black, a dye or a pigment. In addition, you may use what added reinforcement fibers, such as glass fiber and carbon fiber, as needed.

実施例として、照射に使用するレーザ光はYAGレーザ(波長1060nm)とした。又、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルの樹脂材をポリプロピレンコンパウンド(PPC)、ブラケットのエラストマー材を熱可塑性オレフィンとした。このとき、ブラケットにはリブ(高さ1〜5mm)を設置し、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルの前記リブに該当する箇所をレーザ光で溶融し、ブラケットのリブと溶着するようにした。そして、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネル側からレーザ光を照射した。 As an example, the laser beam used for irradiation was a YAG laser (wavelength 1060 nm). The resin material for the airbag door integrated instrument panel was polypropylene compound (PPC), and the elastomer material for the bracket was thermoplastic olefin. At this time, a rib (height of 1 to 5 mm) was installed on the bracket, and a portion corresponding to the rib of the airbag door integrated instrument panel was melted with a laser beam and welded to the rib of the bracket. And the laser beam was irradiated from the airbag panel integrated instrument panel side.

レーザ光の照射条件は、出力10〜250W、加工速度;60〜4000mm/minとした。このときの加圧強度、発熱範囲、溶着部分以外への影響を表1に示す。 Laser light irradiation conditions were an output of 10 to 250 W and a processing speed of 60 to 4000 mm / min. Table 1 shows the influence on the pressure strength, the heat generation range, and the welded portion other than the above.

又、従来例として、振動溶着にて、エアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルとブラケットとを溶着した。このときもブラケットにリブを設置してリブの先端とエアバッグドア一体型インストルメントパネルとを溶着した。条件としては、200〜600HZの振動数を接合面に与えて溶着を行った。そのときの加圧強度、発熱範囲、溶着部分以外への影響を表1に示す。 As a conventional example, the airbag door integrated instrument panel and the bracket were welded by vibration welding. At this time, a rib was installed on the bracket, and the tip of the rib was welded to the airbag door integrated instrument panel. As conditions, welding was performed by applying a frequency of 200 to 600 HZ to the joint surface. Table 1 shows the influence on the pressure strength, the heat generation range, and the area other than the welded portion.

表1の結果からも、実施例は、従来例と比べて、小さい加圧で、又、接合する箇所のみ発熱することから、溶着部分以外への影響も少なく、外観も向上することがわかる。   From the results shown in Table 1, it can be seen that the example produces less heat than the conventional example, and generates heat only at the joining portion, so that there is little influence on other than the welded portion and the appearance is improved.
