Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to an improvement in the mounting structure of rear combination lamps installed on both sides of the lower back garnish of a vehicle.

BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, rear combination lamps have been attached to the lower back panel of a vehicle body, as shown in FIG. In this figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a lower back garnish, and rear combination lamps 2 (the one on the right side is not shown) are installed on the left and right sides of the lower back garnish. It is fixed to the back panel 3.
Similar to the lower back garnish 1, bolts 4, nuts 5, and washers 6 are used to fix the recombination lamp 2, and the lower back panel 3 has a number of holes 7 through which the bolts 4 are inserted.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, since the above-mentioned conventional technology configures the rear combination lamp 2 and the lower back garnish 1 as completely separate bodies, they are separated from the rear part of the lower back panel 3. In order to fix the lower back panel 3 so as to maintain its appearance, a large number of bolt insertion holes for positioning and fixing the lower back garnish 1 and the rear combination lamp 2 to each other are formed with high dimensional accuracy. This requires high-precision machining and also requires a step to prevent water leakage from the numerous bolt insertion holes drilled in the lower back panel 3, resulting in an increase in costs.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides rear combination lamps positioned on the lower back panel of a vehicle and installed on both sides of the fixed lower back garnish. Arm members projecting from the lower back garnish toward the rear combination lamps on both sides are integrally formed with the lower back garnish,
The rear combination lamp is supported and fixed to the arm member of the lower back garnish via positioning means.

Operation: The lower back garnish is pre-positioned and fixed to the lower back panel, and then the rear combination lamp is applied to the arm member of the lower back garnish, positioned and fixed. Once this fixation is done, the rear combination lamp can be positioned simultaneously with respect to both the lower back panel and the lower back garnish.

Therefore, in the lower back panel, it is sufficient to drill only the bolt insertion holes for positioning and fixing the lower back garnish with high dimensional accuracy, and the bolt insertion holes for positioning and fixing the rear combination lamp. , screw holes, etc. can be drilled in the arm members that protrude from both sides of the lower back garnish, reducing the need for high-precision machining of the lower back panel and reducing the number of water leakage countermeasures, keeping costs low. sell.

Embodiment FIGS. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a rear combination lamp mounting structure according to the present invention.

The lower back garnish 9, which is placed alongside the rear combination lamp 8 (the one on the right side is omitted), has roughly the same structure as the conventional one, but the side walls 10 on both sides of the vehicle The arm member is integrally formed with the main body portion. The arm member is divided into an upper arm member 11 and a lower arm member 12, and the upper arm member 11 has a horizontal piece 13 and a vertical piece 1.
4 are connected in a hook shape, and the lower arm member 12 consists of only vertical pieces. Upper arm member 1
1 is provided with a bolt insertion hole 16 that matches a bolt insertion hole (not shown) formed in the lower back panel 15. These bolt insertion holes are provided with the precision necessary for positioning the lower back garnish 9 and the lower back panel 15, and screws (not shown) are inserted between them.

Horizontal piece 13 of upper arm member 11 and lower arm member 1
2 are provided with screw holes 17, which are used for positioning and fixing the lower back garnish 9 and the rear combination lamp 8.

The rear combination lamp 8 is installed on the left and right sides of the lower back garnish 9, and has upper and lower walls 21, 22 and a front wall 23 flush with the upper and lower walls 18, 19 and the front wall 20 of the lower back garnish 9. It has a substantially U-shaped cross section. The upper arm member 13 and the lower arm member 1 are provided on the upper wall 21 and the front wall 23.
Small holes 24 corresponding to the two screw holes 17 are drilled, respectively. Incidentally, a screw hole 25 for engaging with the side surface of the lower back panel 15 is formed at a portion of the rear combination lamp 8 facing the side surface of the vehicle.

Between the screw hole 17 of the arm member 11 and the small hole 24 of the upper wall 21 of the rear combination lamp 8, and between the screw hole 17 of the lower arm member 12 and the small hole 24 of the front wall 23 of the rear combination lamp 8. The screws 26 and 27 inserted therein serve as means for positioning the lower back garnish 9 and the rear combination lamp 8, and these screws are used to position the lower back garnish 9 and the rear combination lamp 8. The accuracy required for positioning is given, and the screw 26,
27, it is fixed inseparably.

To assemble the above structure, first, the lower back garnish 9 is positioned and fixed to the lower back panel 15 with a screw (not shown) using the bolt insertion hole 16 of the upper arm member 11. . This allows the lower back garnishment 9
This means that the lower back panel 15 has been positioned and connected.

Next, left and right rear combination lamps 8
are respectively attached to both sides of the lower bag garnish 9, the small holes 24 in the upper wall 21 are aligned with the screw holes 17 in the upper arm member 11, and the screws 26 are inserted therein. Further, the small hole 24 in the front wall 23 is aligned with the screw hole 17 in the lower arm member 12, and the screw 27 is inserted therein.

As a result, the rear combination lamp 8 and the lower back garnish 9 are positioned and connected. lower bag garnish 9
Since the positioning of the rear combination lamp 8 and the lower back panel 15 has already been done, by positioning and fixing the rear combination lamp 8 with respect to the lower back garnish 9, the lower back panel 1 of the lamp 8 can be positioned.
5 will also be positioned.

Effects of the invention Since the present invention has the above-described structure and function, when installing the rear combination lamp, there is no need to drill bolt insertion holes in the lower back for positioning and fixing the rear combination lamp. It is sufficient to provide bolt insertion holes, screw holes, etc. for positioning and fixing the rear combination lamp only in the arm members of the back garnish.

Therefore, the rear combination lamp can be easily and quickly installed in the proper position without requiring a high level of dimensional accuracy compared to conventional structures.

In addition, since the rear combination lamp is not directly fixed to the lower back panel, the number of bolt insertion holes that must be provided in the lower back panel, which is usually made of sheet metal, for positioning and fixing the rear combination lamp is greater than in the past. It is possible to reduce this. This is desirable from the standpoint of preventing water leakage.

Therefore, it is possible to reduce the number of high-precision processes for the lower back panel, reduce the number of measures against water leakage, and keep costs low.

Furthermore, since it is not necessary to remove the lower back garnish from the lower back panel when replacing the rear combination lamp, a license plate can be installed on the lower back garnish.
