Description

  The present invention relates to a sunroof device.

  Conventionally, as a sunroof device, for example, a device described in Patent Document 1 is known. In this sunroof device, a deflector panel and a slide panel that can open and close an opening formed in a roof continuously behind a vehicle of a windshield (so-called windshield) are arranged in parallel in the front-rear direction of the vehicle. The deflector panel is released from the slide panel side in accordance with the opening operation of the slide panel, performs a tilt-up operation, and protrudes above the roof upper surface. Alternatively, the deflector panel is pressed from the slide panel side with the closing operation of the slide panel and fits below the roof top surface.

  The deflector panel is provided with a seal member formed of an elastic body along its front edge. This sealing member is for preventing the running wind flowing along the surface of the windshield from being blown into the passenger compartment. Note that when the deflector panel is in a state below the top surface of the roof, the seal member presses the back surface of the windshield so that a gap in the front-rear direction of the vehicle between the deflector panel and the windshield is provided, for example. Block the entire length of the vehicle in the width direction. Thereby, it is estimated that the deflector panel and the windshield appear to be continuous in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and the design from the outside of the vehicle is enhanced.

JP 2006-264643 A

  By the way, in Patent Document 1, it is assumed that one panel (windshield) is in a fixed state with respect to the roof of the vehicle. To the sunroof device in which those arranged in parallel in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle are both movable panels. The adoption of becomes difficult. For example, when a gap between the adjacent movable panels in the front-rear direction of the vehicle is closed with a seal member, the posture of the seal member is gradually left, and the seal member interferes with the movable panel, so that the opening / closing operation is not possible. It may become stable.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a sunroof device that can enhance designability from the outside of a vehicle without destabilizing the opening / closing operation of the movable panel.

  A sunroof device that solves the above problems includes a first movable panel and a second movable panel, which are a pair of movable panels arranged in parallel in the front-rear direction so as to be openable and closable on a vehicle roof, and the vehicle front-rear direction from the first movable panel. Provided on the back side portion of the first movable panel, and when both the movable panels are in a fully closed state, the guide portion is pressed against the back surface of the second movable panel. The gap between the two movable panels in the front-rear direction of the vehicle is closed from the back side, and the second movable panel is released from the second movable panel in the open state of the two movable panels, presses against the first movable panel, and closes. 2 A lid member for allowing the guide portion to face the back surface of the movable panel.

  According to this configuration, when both the movable panels are in the fully closed state, the gap between the two movable panels in the front-rear direction of the vehicle is achieved by the lid member that presses against the back surface of the second movable panel in the guide portion. Is closed from the back side, that is, from the side opposite to the outside of the vehicle. Thereby, the designability from the outside of the vehicle can be enhanced. In the open state of the two movable panels, the lid member released from the second movable panel and press-contacted with the first movable panel has the guide portion on the back surface of the second movable panel that is closed thereafter. Let it come. Therefore, when both the movable panels return to the fully closed state, the lid member more reliably presses the guide portion against the back surface without interfering with the second movable panel. A gap in the front-rear direction of the vehicle can be closed.

  In the sunroof device, the lid member has the guide portion and is pivotally connected to the back side portion of the first movable panel, and the back surface of the first movable panel or the second movable panel. It is preferable to have a biasing member that biases the lever in a rotation direction in pressure contact with the lever.

  According to this configuration, the lever that closes the vehicle front-rear gap between the two movable panels from the back surface side, and the biasing member that presses the lever against the back surface of the first movable panel or the second movable panel. Are individually provided, the reliability of the operation of the lid member can be further improved.

  In the sunroof device, an opening formed in the roof is positioned behind the vehicle of the first movable panel, and the first movable panel is a rear portion relative to a front portion of the vehicle in the opened state. The lid member that presses against the first movable panel when the first movable panel is in an open state is located behind the vehicle relative to the first movable panel. And it is preferable that the said guide part protrudes above the surface of the said 1st movable panel in the height direction of a vehicle.

  According to this configuration, the lid member projects the guide portion behind the first movable panel in the open state and above the surface of the first movable panel in the height direction of the vehicle. By doing so, the airflow flowing on the surface of the first movable panel can be disturbed, and the occurrence of wind slob can be suppressed without increasing the standing amount of the first movable panel.

  The present invention has an effect of improving the design from the outside of the vehicle without destabilizing the opening / closing operation of the movable panel.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the sunroof device will be described. Hereinafter, the front-rear direction of the vehicle is referred to as “front-rear direction”, and the upper direction and the lower direction of the vehicle height are referred to as “upward” and “lower”, respectively. Further, the inside in the width direction of the vehicle heading toward the inside of the vehicle interior is referred to as “vehicle inside”, and the outside in the width direction of the vehicle toward the outside of the vehicle interior is referred to as “vehicle outside”.

  As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, a substantially square roof opening 11 is formed in a roof 10 of a vehicle such as an automobile, and a substantially square first made of a plate material made of glass or resin, for example. A deflector panel 12 as a first movable panel (movable panel), a movable panel 13 as a second movable panel, and a fixed panel 14 are installed.

  The deflector panel 12 extends in the width direction of the vehicle along the front edge portion of the roof opening 11 and is attached so as to be capable of so-called tilt-up operation in which the rear portion rises with the front portion as a fulcrum. The deflector panel 12 is released from the movable panel 13 side with the opening operation of the movable panel 13 and tilts up, and projects upward from the top surface of the roof 10 (deployed state). That is, the deflector panel 12 stands up so that the rear part thereof is positioned above the front part in the deployed state (open state). Alternatively, the deflector panel 12 is pressed down from the movable panel 13 side with the closing operation of the movable panel 13 and fits below the upper surface of the roof 10 (stored state). The deflector panel 12 is in an unfolded state when the movable panel 13 opens the roof opening 11 (the front opening 11a), thereby preventing air vibration due to wind being caught in the vehicle interior.

  The movable panel 13 is attached so that the front side opening 11a as an opening of the roof opening 11 can be opened and closed. That is, the movable panel 13 is attached so that a tilt-up operation in which the rear portion rises with the front portion thereof as a fulcrum and a slide operation in the front-rear direction. In the opening / closing operation of the front opening 11a by the movable panel 13, a so-called outer sliding type is adopted in which the sliding operation is performed in the tilt-up state. Needless to say, the front opening 11a is disposed behind the deflector panel 12 behind the vehicle. On the other hand, the fixed panel 14 is attached so as to always close the rear opening 11 b of the roof opening 11.

Next, the installation structure of the deflector panel 12 etc. in the roof 10 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 2, a substantially “Sun” -shaped housing 21 made of, for example, a metal plate is fastened to the roof 10 along the periphery of the roof opening 11. The housing 21 includes a side frame portion 22 extending in the front-rear direction along each of the vehicle width direction edge portions of the roof opening 11 and a front side connecting the front ends of the side frame portions 22 in the vehicle width direction. It has the frame part 23 and the intermediate frame part 24 which connects the longitudinal direction intermediate parts of both the side frame parts 22 in the width direction of a vehicle. The intermediate frame portion 24 defines the front opening 11a and the rear opening 11b of the roof opening 11. In other words, the intermediate frame portion 24 extends in the vehicle width direction along the boundary portion in the front-rear direction of the movable panel 13 and the fixed panel 14 in the fully closed state.

  A side weather strip 26 extending in the front-rear direction along the vehicle outer edge of each side frame portion 22 is attached to the housing 21, and along the rear edge portion and the intermediate frame portion 24 of the front frame portion 23. Boundary weather strips 27 and 28 extending in the width direction of the vehicle are attached. A main weather strip 29 having a substantially square frame shape is attached to the housing 21 along the vehicle inner edge of both side frame portions 22, the rear edge of the front frame portion 23, and the front edge of the intermediate frame portion 24. Yes. The weather strips 26 to 29 are made of synthetic rubber such as EPDM or thermoplastic elastomer, for example.

  The deflector panel 12 in the retracted state (fully closed state) is in close contact with each side weather strip 26 at each of both edges in the width direction of the vehicle, and in close contact with the boundary weather strip 27 at the rear edge. The movable panel 13 in the fully closed state is in close contact with each side weather strip 26 at each of both edges in the width direction of the vehicle, and in close contact with the boundary weather strips 27 and 28 at the front edge portion and the rear edge portion, respectively. Furthermore, it closely adheres to the main weather strip 29 over the entire periphery. Accordingly, the boundary weather strip 27 extends in the vehicle width direction along the front-rear direction boundary between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13.

  An arm portion 15 as a functional member extending in the front-rear direction is disposed between the side weather strip 26 and the main weather strip 29 in the vehicle width direction at the front end portion of each side frame portion 22. The arm portion 15 is rotatably connected to the side frame portion 22 at a rear end portion located rearward of the vehicle from the boundary portion weather strip 27 and is further forward from the boundary portion weather strip 27 to the front side of the vehicle. The front end portion positioned is rotatably connected to the deflector panel 12.

  The deflector panel 12 constitutes an appropriate link mechanism or cam mechanism together with the arm portion 15, so that the attitude of the arm portion 15 is controlled. That is, for example, when the arm portion 15 is rotated to the side where the front end portion is raised, the deflector panel 12 is in an unfolded state, and conversely, the arm portion 15 is rotated toward the side where the front end portion is lowered, thereby the deflector panel. 12 enters the storage state. The arm portion 15 is constantly urged toward the side where the front end is raised by an appropriate urging member (for example, a coil spring or a leaf spring), and is urged by being pressed by the movable panel 13 that is closed. It turns to the side which lowers a front-end part against the urging | biasing force of a member. That is, the deflector panel 12 is in the retracted state when the arm portions 15 are pressed into the movable panel 13 that is closed.

  A guide rail (not shown) made of, for example, an aluminum alloy extruded material is provided on the lower surface of each side frame portion 22 so as to extend in the front-rear direction. And each of the vehicle width direction both edge part of the movable panel 13 is connected and supported by the well-known functional member 18 provided in the guide rail inside the vehicle rather than the side frame part 22. FIG. Each functional member 18 is driven by an electric drive source (not shown) such as an electric motor, for example, to cause the movable panel 13 to perform a tilt-up operation or to perform a slide operation in a tilt-up state.

  As shown in FIG. 3, in the retracted state (fully closed state) of the deflector panel 12 and the fully closed state of the movable panel 13, a gap in the front-rear direction is generated between them. This gap is for absorbing a variation in the installation of the deflector panel 12 or the movable panel 13 or securing an operating gap. The boundary weather strip 27 extends over substantially the entire length in the vehicle width direction of the front-rear gap between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13. However, as shown in FIG. 4, a gap in the width direction of the vehicle for passing the arm portion 15 in the front-rear direction is set between the front ends of the side weather strips 26 and the boundary portion weather strips 27. Yes. The arm portion 15 is in contact with or close to the front end of the boundary weather strip 27 so that there is no or little clearance in the width direction of the vehicle between the front end and the side weather strip 26. There still remains a gap in the width direction of the vehicle. The deflector panel 12 is provided with a lid member 30 that closes the gap.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 5, a connecting plate having a substantially U-shaped cross section that opens downward at the position of each arm portion 15 in the vehicle width direction is provided on the back surface (lower surface) facing the passenger compartment side of the deflector panel 12. 16 (back surface side part) is joined. The connecting plate 16 accommodates the front end portion of the arm portion 15 and a support shaft 17 as a connecting shaft extending in the width direction of the vehicle along with the arm portion 15. That is, the front end portion of the arm portion 15 is rotatably connected to the deflector panel 12 by the support shaft 17. And the front-end | tip part which protrudes from the connection plate 16 of the support shaft 17 to the vehicle outer side supports the front-end part of the lever 31 which consists of resin materials, for example so that rotation is possible. An urging member 32 made of, for example, a torsion coil spring is wound around the support shaft 17 between the connecting plate 16 and the lever 31 in the vehicle width direction. The urging member 32 urges the lever 31 in the rotational direction in which the rear end portion rises around the support shaft 17. The lever 31 and the urging member 32 constitute a lid member 30.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the front end portion of the lever 31 has a substantially cylindrical support portion 31a, and the support shaft 17 is inserted into the support portion 31a so as to be rotatable. The lever 31 has a substantially triangular roof-shaped lid portion 31b extending from the support portion 31a to the rear of the vehicle. The front end portion of the lid portion 31b that protrudes toward the rear of the vehicle from the deflector panel 12 is inclined so as to be directed downward toward the rear of the vehicle to form a guide portion 31c.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 6A, the lever 31 biased by the biasing member 32 is guided in a state where the topmost portion of the lid portion 31 b is located in the gap in the front-rear direction between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13. In the part 31c, it press-contacts to the back surface (lower surface) which faces the compartment side of the movable panel 13. FIG. At this time, the lid portion 31 b is in pressure contact with or in contact with the back surface of the deflector panel 12. Thereby, between the arm part 15 and the side weather strip 26 in the width direction of the vehicle, the gap in the front-rear direction between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 is the back side (downward), that is, the surface facing the outside of the vehicle ( It is closed from the side opposite to the design surface.

  Further, as shown by the change from FIG. 6A to FIG. 6B, when the movable panel 13 starts the sliding operation (opening operation), the lever 31 moves the front end back surface of the movable panel 13 to the guide portion 31c. While being slid, the front end portion is raised and rotated around the support shaft 17 against the urging force of the urging member 32. That is, the opening operation of the movable panel 13 is not hindered by the lever 31 (lid member 30).

  When the movable panel 13 is released from the lever 31 as the movable panel 13 opens, the lever 31 biased by the biasing member 32 rotates in the direction in which the rear end rises around the support shaft 17. And is brought into pressure contact with the back surface of the deflector panel 12 at the lid portion 31b. At this time, it goes without saying that the deflector panel 12 is in a tilt-up state (open state). In the tilt-up state of the deflector panel 12, the lever 31 projects the guide portion 31c above the rear end surface of the deflector panel 12. That is, when the movable panel 13 is in the open state, the deflector panel 12 is in the tilted up state, but the posture of the lever 31 released from the movable panel 13 is defined by being pressed against the back surface of the deflector panel 12.

  Thereafter, when the movable panel 13 approaches the lever 31 in accordance with the sliding operation (closing operation) of the movable panel 13, the deflector panel 12 pressed by the both arm portions 15 by the movable panel 13 starts a tilt-down operation (closing operation). . And the lever 31 makes the guide part 31c face the front-end back surface of the movable panel 13 which closes.

  Therefore, as shown by the change from FIG. 6B to FIG. 6A, the lever 31 slides the front end back surface of the movable panel 13 on the guide portion 31c, and guides the guide portion 31c on the back surface side (downward). And turn around the support shaft 17 while lowering the front end. And the lever 31 urged | biased by the urging | biasing member 32 is press-contacted to the back surface of the movable panel 13 in the guide part 31c by the return to the storing state of the deflector panel 12, etc. That is, the closing operation of the movable panel 13 is not hindered by the lever 31 (lid member 30).

  As described above, in the tilted-up state of the deflector panel 12, the lever 31 protrudes the guide portion 31c above the rear end surface of the deflector panel 12, as shown in FIG. Therefore, as depicted by a broken line arrow in FIG. 7A, the airflow flowing on the surface (upper surface) of the deflector panel 12 can be disturbed while the vehicle is running, and the amount of standing of the deflector panel 12 is not increased. The occurrence of wind slob can be suppressed.

  On the other hand, since the posture of the lever 31 is held by the urging force of the urging member 32, as shown in FIG. 7B, the urging force of the urging member 32 is based on the wind pressure when the vehicle is traveling at high speed. When the load is exceeded, the lever 31 rotates so that the rear end portion descends against the urging force of the urging member 32, and does not project the guide portion 31 c above the rear end surface of the deflector panel 12. Therefore, as depicted by broken line arrows in FIG. 7B, it is possible to suppress the generation of wind noise due to the airflow flowing through the guide portion 31c (lid member 30).

As described above in detail, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) In the present embodiment, when both the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 are in the fully closed state, the lid member 30 that press-contacts the back surface of the movable panel 13 at the guide portion 31c causes the gap between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13. The gap in the front-rear direction is closed from the back side, that is, from the side opposite to the outside of the vehicle (design surface). Thereby, the designability from the outside of the vehicle can be enhanced. When the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 are in the open state, the lid member 30 that is released from the movable panel 13 and press-contacts the deflector panel 12 causes the guide portion 31 c to face the back surface of the movable panel 13 that is subsequently closed. Therefore, when both the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 return to the fully closed state, the lid member 30 causes the guide portion 31c to be in pressure contact with the back surface of the lid member 30 without interfering with the movable panel 13 and more reliably. And the gap in the front-rear direction between the movable panels 13 can be closed.

  (2) In the present embodiment, the lever 31 that closes the gap in the front-rear direction between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 from the back surface side, and the urging member 32 that presses the lever 31 against the deflector panel 12 or the back surface of the movable panel 13. Are individually provided, the reliability of the operation of the lid member 30 can be further improved.

  (3) In the present embodiment, when the deflector panel 12 is in the open state, the lid member 30 projects the guide portion 31 c behind the deflector panel 12 and above the surface of the deflector panel 12. Therefore, the airflow flowing on the surface of the deflector panel 12 can be disturbed, and the occurrence of wind slob can be suppressed without increasing the standing amount of the deflector panel 12. That is, even if the longitudinal dimension of the deflector panel 12 is shortened, the occurrence of wind slob can be suppressed.

  Further, when the vehicle is traveling at a high speed, the lever 31 does not project the guide portion 31 c above the rear end surface of the deflector panel 12 when the load based on the wind pressure exceeds the urging force of the urging member 32. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the generation of wind noise by the guide portion 31c (lid member 30).

  (4) In the present embodiment, the lid member 30 may be provided only in a part between the side weather strips 26 and the arm portions 15 in the width direction of the vehicle. be able to. Further, the gap in the front-rear direction between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 in the fully closed state is determined by the cooperation of the boundary portion weather strip 27, both arm portions 15, both lid members 30, and both side weather strips 26. It is blocked over the entire length in the width direction. Accordingly, since the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 appear to be continuous in the front-rear direction, the design from the outside of the vehicle is not impaired.

  (5) In this embodiment, the lid member 30 is connected to the arm portion 15 using the connecting shaft (support shaft 17) of the deflector panel 12 and the arm portion 15, thereby reducing the number of parts. it can.

(6) In the present embodiment, the lid member 30 can close the gap in the front-rear direction between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13 from the back surface side (vehicle compartment side) without protruding to the design surface side.
(7) In this embodiment, the lid member 30 is closed with an extremely simple structure in which the lever 31 is held by the urging force of the urging member 32 and the inclined guide portion 31c is formed on the lever 31. Without interfering with the movable panel 13, it can sink into the back side.

  (8) In the present embodiment, the lever 31 is held by the urging force of the urging member 32, so that, for example, the deflector panel 12 or the movable panel 13 can follow the mounting variation in the vehicle height direction. It is possible to relieve the influence of the installation, and more reliably close the corresponding gap.

  (9) In the present embodiment, the lid member 30 may be provided only in a part between the side weather strips 26 and the arm portions 15 in the vehicle width direction. For this reason, the lid member 30 does not hinder the pressing operation of the arm portions 15 by the movable panel 13 that is closed.

In addition, you may change the said embodiment as follows.
-As shown in FIG. 8, you may employ | adopt the leaf | plate spring shaped cover member 40 shape | molded, for example with the spring steel plate. The lid member 40 has one end (front end) fixed to the back side (for example, the connecting plate 16) of the deflector panel 12 (drawn with a cross mark in the drawing) and a free end extending to the rear of the vehicle. A lid piece 41 having a substantially triangular roof shape on the side is formed. And the front-end | tip part which protrudes in the back of a vehicle rather than the deflector panel 12 of the cover piece 41 inclines so that it may go below as it goes to the back of a vehicle, and forms the guide part 42. FIG.

  In such a configuration, when the deflector panel 12 is in the retracted state (fully closed state) and the movable panel 13 is fully closed, the top of the lid piece 41 is movable with the deflector panel 12 due to its own elastic force. The guide portion 42 is in pressure contact with the back surface (lower surface) of the movable panel 13 while being positioned in the front-rear gap between the panels 13. Further, when the movable panel 13 is detached as the movable panel 13 is opened, the lid member 40 is pressed against the back surface of the deflector panel 12 at the lid piece 41 by its own elastic force. Therefore, similarly to the above-described embodiment, the cover member 40 presses the guide portion 42 against the back surface by causing the guide portion 42 to face the back surface of the movable panel 13 that is subsequently closed. In this case, the number of parts and the cost can be reduced by configuring the lid member 40 with one part. It is more preferable that the cover member 40 is appropriately coated so that the material (spring steel plate) is not exposed as it is from the front-rear direction gap between the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13.

In the embodiment described above, the rotation axis of the lid member 30 may not coincide with the support shaft 17.
-In the said embodiment, if the boundary part weatherstrip 27 is not arrange | positioned in the boundary part of the front-back direction of the deflector panel 12 and the movable panel 13, it will cover the substantially full length of the width direction of vehicles, such as the deflector panel 12. You may employ | adopt the cover member extended in the said direction.

  In the embodiment, the lid members 30 and 40 may be provided directly at appropriate locations on the back side of the deflector panel 12. In this case, both the arm portions 15 may be omitted, and the deflector panel 12 may be opened / closed (standing operation, etc.) by an appropriate mechanism (for example, a compression coil spring).

  In the embodiment, the lid members 30 and 40 are provided on the back side of the movable panel 13 as the first movable panel, and the deflector panel as the second movable panel in which the lid portion 31b or the lid piece 41 is fully closed. You may press-contact to the back surface of 12. In this case, in view of the arrangement of the lid members 30 and 40, the opening / closing operation of the movable panel 13 is more preferably a sliding operation in a non-tilt-up state.

  In the embodiment, the lid members 30 and 40 that are in pressure contact with the deflector panel 12 in the open state of the deflector panel 12 may not protrude the guide portions 31 c and 42 above the surface of the deflector panel 12.

  -In the said embodiment, if the clearance gap between each arm part 15 and the front-end | tip of the boundary part weather strip 27 arises in the width direction of a vehicle, you may make it arrange | position a cover member in the position of the said clearance gap.

  In the embodiment, a movable panel that can open and close the rear opening 11b may be employed instead of the fixed panel 14. The opening / closing operation of the movable panel may be a sliding operation in a tilt-up state or a sliding operation in a non-tilt-up state. In this case, a lid member may be provided on the movable panel, or a lid member may be provided on the movable panel 13 in front of the vehicle. In any case, in order to establish the operation of the lid member, it is necessary that the opening and closing operations of both the movable panels are linked in a certain relationship.

  In addition, it cannot be overemphasized that the cover member in this form block | closes the clearance gap of the front-back direction between the said movable panel and the movable panel 13 ahead of the vehicle from the downward direction. In particular, each of the functional members 18 related to the opening / closing operation of the movable panel 13 passes through the gap in the width direction of the vehicle formed between the front end of each side weather strip 26 and the boundary weather strip 28 in the front-rear direction. And In this case, the lid member may be arranged at a position of a gap between the functional member 18 and the tip of the side weather strip 26 or the boundary weather strip 28 in the vehicle width direction.

Next, the technical idea that can be grasped from the above embodiment and other examples will be described below.
(A) In the sunroof device,
A side weather strip extending in the front-rear direction along each of the vehicle widthwise edges of the opening and in close contact with each of the vehicle widthwise edges of the movable panels in the fully closed state; ,
A boundary weather strip extending in the width direction of the vehicle and in close contact with both movable panels at a boundary between the two movable panels in a fully closed state;
A functional member capable of moving up and down from a gap in the width direction of the vehicle between the width direction ends of the side weather strip and the boundary weather strip to open and close the first movable panel;
