Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Overview] As a component mounting mechanism, screw holes are provided on both sides of the component to be mounted, and a U-shaped member substantially equal to the width of this component is fixed in advance, and this U-shaped A mechanism for screwing from both sides of a component through holes formed in arm portions on both sides of a mold member is often used. In this case, the mounting position is made variable by making the hole of the arm part of the U-shaped member an elongated hole, but it is not allowed from the viewpoint of appearance and safety that the arm part comes out of the part before the part The adjustment range is limited. Therefore, a member rotatable with respect to the arm portion is provided at the end of the arm portion, and the component is screwed with a hole provided at this end. Holes and projections are provided on the arm portion and the rotating member, respectively, so that the holes and the projections fit in accordance with the rotational position, and are fixed by contact pressure due to a screwing force of the component.

[Industrial applications]

The present invention relates to a mechanism for mounting components, and more particularly to a mounting mechanism that can change a mounting position by rotation.

[Conventional technology]

There are several methods for mounting the in-vehicle operation device on the driver's seat. One method is to provide a mounting hole on the back of the operating device, open a part of the operating device, and then screw it. Another method is to provide screws on the operation device and attach it from the vehicle body side. However, these are difficult in terms of workability and structure. Therefore, as a frequently used method, screw holes are provided on both sides of the operating device, and a U-shaped member having a width substantially equal to the width of the operating device is fixed in advance. The operation device is fixed by tightening screws into screw holes on both sides of the U-shaped member through holes provided in arm portions on both sides of the U-shaped member.

In the case of operating devices that can be mounted for each operation, it is often desired to adjust the mounting position appropriately. In such a case,
As shown in FIG. 5, the position of the arm can be adjusted to some extent by making the hole of the arm portion a long hole 15c.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

By making the hole of the arm portion a long hole 15c as shown in FIG. 5, the position of the mounting component 1c can be moved by the length of the long hole 15c. Therefore, when it is desired to increase the range of the position adjustment, the elongated hole is lengthened. However, when the mounting component moves to the position shown by the broken line in FIG. 5, the arm portion protrudes from the mounting component 1c. This is unacceptable both in appearance and in terms of safety in operation. Therefore, when providing a long hole in the arm portion, the range in which the position can be adjusted is limited to a range in which the arm portion does not protrude from the mounting component 1c. In other words, the adjustable range is the movable range of the width from the screw hole of the attachment component to the front end of the front surface at the maximum.

In addition, when adjusting the mounting position, it may be required to move not only horizontally but also vertically.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems,
A mounting mechanism that expands the variable range of the mounting position when mounting a mounting part having screw holes on both sides to a U-shaped member,
It is intended to be realized with a simple structure.

[Means for solving the problem]

With the mounting mechanism of the present invention, in order to solve the above problems,
A member rotatable with respect to the arm portion is provided at the end of the U-shaped arm portion, and the component is screwed with a hole provided at the tip of the rotating member. For example, a hole and a projection are provided on the arm portion and the rotating member, respectively, and the hole and the projection are fitted in accordance with the rotation position, and fixed by the contact pressure between the arm portion and the rotating member generated by a force for screwing the mounting component. . 1 and 2 are views showing a mounting mechanism in which the mounting position of the present invention is variable. FIG. 1 is a top view showing a part in cross section, and FIG. 2 is a side view. , A dashed line indicates a state fixed at the rotated position.

That is, the mounting mechanism of the present invention in which the mounting position is variable is a mechanism for mounting the mounting member 1 having the screw holes 2 on both sides, and includes a base portion fixed to the base 7 and a base portion from both ends of the base portion. The first arm 13 is composed of two arm portions extending in a direction perpendicular to the length direction. The arm portion has a first hole 13 and a plurality of first members arranged on a circumference centered on the first hole 13. A U-shaped fixing member 3 having a joint portion, a hole through which a screw member 6 to be screwed into the screw hole of the mounting member 1 passes is provided on one end side, and a rotation center serving as a rotation center is provided on the other end side. A rotating member having two holes and a plurality of second engaging portions engaging with the first engaging portion; and a rotating member passing through the second hole of the rotating member and the first hole of the arm portion. And a screw member for rotatably connecting the screw member to the arm portion.
Is fastened to the mounting member through a hole in the movable member, whereby the arm member and the movable member are fixed by generating a contact pressure.

[Action]

FIG. 2 shows a state in which the mounting member 1 indicated by a solid line and an alternate long and short dash line changes the mounting position. As shown, by rotating the rotating member 4 to an appropriate angle with respect to the arm portion, the mounting position can be changed in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction.

In order to rotate the rotating member 4, the force for pressing the rotating member 4 to loosen the screw member 6 against the arm portion is released. Then, the rotating member 4 is slightly opened according to the margin between the arm portion of the coupling member 5 and the rotating member 4, and the projection 12 becomes the hole 11.
You will be able to rotate out of the way. Note that protrusion 12 and hole 11
May be reversed.

In the case of fixing, the projection 12 is fitted to one of the holes 11 so that the rotating members 4 on both sides are at an appropriate position with respect to the arm portion. Then, by screwing the screw member 6 into the mounting member 1, the connecting member 5 is provided between the arm portion and the rotating member 4.
In the area of, force in the direction away from each other acts, and the protrusion 12 and the hole 11
Alternatively, a force for attracting the rotating member 4 and the arm portion in the vicinity thereof acts, and the rotating member 4 is fixed to the arm portion. The mounting member 1 is rotated by the contact force with the rotating member 4. In order to be able to do this, the width of the mounting member 1 and the width of the U-shaped fixing member 3 and the rotation are set so that such a force acts on the rotating member 4 when the screw member 6 is tightened. It is natural that the shape of the member 4 is determined.

〔Example〕

When the mounting member 1 is fixed by the contact pressure with the rotating member 4 as described above, the mounting member 1 is screwed because the side surface of the mounting member 1 is damaged or a sufficient contact pressure against slip cannot be obtained. A case can easily occur that rotates about the center 6. FIG. 3 shows an embodiment in which a resilient elastic member such as rubber is disposed between the mounting member and the rotating member. In the following drawings, the same functional parts as those in FIGS. 1 and 2 are represented by the same numbers with the lowercase alphabets added.

In FIG. 3, reference numeral 9a denotes an elastic member. Further, when the mounting position is changed and the mounting member 1a enters the inside of the rotation center portion, the mounting member 1a is not allowed to contact this portion. Therefore, the width between the centers of rotation on both sides is
Must be wider than the width of the rotating member 4 in FIG.
Was bent to have a step. However, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, there is no need to bend the rotating member 4a because of the elastic member 9a. Of course for this the mounting member
A part of 1a may be extended in a cylindrical shape like the elastic member 9a in FIG.

When the above-described example is actually performed, it is appropriate in terms of cost to process the U-shaped fixing member and the rotating member using a sheet metal. However, when sheet metal is used, it is difficult to firmly bend the right angled portion between the arm portion and the base portion. For example, when a force is applied in the direction of the arrow in FIG. Portion, that is, the arm 7 and the rotating member 4a
There is a possibility that the contact pressure with the rotating member 4a may decrease, or the protrusion may be displaced from the hole, and the rotating member 4a may rotate. For this reason, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, a second rotating member is further provided inside the rotating member 4b and inside the arm portion so as to sandwich the arm portion.

4b is a second rotating member having a hole through which the screw member 6b passes at one end and a screw hole into which the coupling member 5b is screwed at the other end. Have. Although burring is performed in FIG. 4, a nut may be used in the hole through which the coupling member 5b passes, as in FIG. The second rotating member 10b can rotate together with the rotating member 4b around the connecting member 5b. In the example of FIG. 4, a portion for fitting into the hole of the arm portion is provided on the second rotating member so that the rotation is further facilitated.

The rotating member 4b and the second rotating member 10b are joined together so as to be in an appropriate rotational position with respect to the arm portion, and the protrusion 12b
Into one of the holes 11b so that the screw member 6b
Into the screw hole 2 through the hole of the rotating member 4b and the second rotating member 11b.
When it is tightened to b, the force for sandwiching the arm portion is fixed between the rotating member 4b and the second rotating member 10b only on one side. This is performed on both sides of the mounting member 1b. Thereby, even if a bending force is applied to the arm portion of the fixing member 3b, the arm portion, the rotating member 4b and the second rotating member 10b are firmly fixed on each side, so that there is no danger of slipping.

[Effect of the invention]

As described above, when mounting members having screw holes on both sides of an in-vehicle operating device or the like, a mounting mechanism capable of adjusting a mounting position in a wide range also in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction,
It can be realized by a simple structure.
