Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an interior material for a vehicle, which includes an interior plate that is attached along an outer surface of a panel of a vehicle that is partially provided with a recess, such as in a trunk room of the vehicle.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the panel 4 in the trunk of the vehicle is provided with a recess 6 for accommodating the spare tire 5. An interior plate 1 including, for example, a decorative layer 3 and a substrate layer 2 is laid along the outer surface of the panel connecting the edges of the recess 6.

Conventionally, a thick and hard hard board with a thickness of about 5 mm was used for the substrate layer 2 of the interior board 1, but recently, the weight of the vehicle is reduced, cushioning is provided, and a spare tire is taken out. In order to facilitate this, flexible plastic sheets with a thickness of 3 mm or less have been adopted.

However, when the luggage is placed above the spare tire storage portion when the interior room 1 is made of such a thin plastic sheet and the luggage is laid over the interior space, the interior board 1 and the disc wheel 8 of the spare tire 5 are Since there was a gap of about 50 mm between the luggage, the luggage slipped in and became unstable, and the luggage sometimes fell while the vehicle was running.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7, a spacer 9 made of a urethane foam resin block is attached to the rear surface of the substrate layer of the interior plate 1 corresponding to the gap to form an interior material, and the interior material is packaged by luggage. It prevents the board 1 from denting.

However, since the thickness of the spacer 9 for filling the gap may be as large as 50 mm or more, the interior material in which the spacer 9 is attached to the interior plate 1 is not suitable for storage or transportation. In addition to the extremely poor storage efficiency, when handling the interior materials for transportation or mounting, the spacers 9 often come off the interior plate 1 due to contact with each other or with other things. An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle interior material that eliminates such drawbacks.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides an interior plate mounted along the outer surface of a panel of a vehicle, a partial recess provided in the panel, or an article housed in the recess and the interior plate. A vehicle interior material having a spacer attached to the interior plate portion corresponding to the gap between the spacer and the spacer, the spacer is expanded and folded to be assembled into a box-shaped vehicle interior material. To do.

[0008]

[Action]

 Since the vehicle interior material of the present invention is configured as described above, it is possible to reduce the bulk by unfolding and folding the box-shaped spacer, and to improve the storage efficiency during storage and transportation. In addition to being able to increase the height, it is possible to prevent the spacer from coming off the interior plate due to contact with each other or other materials.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of the main part of the floor surface of a vehicle trunk rule showing an example of a situation in which this idea is implemented. A recess 6 for accommodating a spare tire 5 is provided on a floor panel 4 in a trunk room of a vehicle. A spare tire 5 is housed in the recess 6, and an upper portion of the recess 6 is covered with an interior plate 1 of an interior material for a vehicle according to the present invention. The interior plate 1 is attached along an outer surface of a panel 4. Has been. Generally, when the spare tire 5 is stored flat as shown, the disc wheel 8 is recessed from the wall side 7 of the tire.

An interior board 1 shown as an example in the figure is a vehicle body panel 4 in which a decorative layer 3 such as a carpet or a non-woven fabric is attached to an upper surface of a substrate layer 2 made of a polyolefin plastic sheet. It is molded into a shape that follows the contoured outer surface. However, at the upper part of the recess 6 for accommodating the spare tire 5 of the floor panel 4 in the trunk room, the interior plate 1 is flat for loading luggage on it and for concealing the spare tire 5. There is. Therefore, in order to fill the gap between the disc wheel 8 of the spare tire 5 and the interior plate 1, a spacer 10 is provided on the back surface of the substrate layer 2. As described above, the vehicle interior material according to the present invention has the spacer 10 in addition to the interior plate 1, and the spacer 10 is an article housed in the partial recess 6 provided in the panel 4, In this example, it is attached to the portion of the interior plate 1 corresponding to the gap between the spare tire 5 and the interior plate 1.

The spacer 10 is formed in a box shape that is assembled so as to be unfoldable and foldable, and is configured, for example, as shown in its perspective view in FIG. The spacer 10 is punched out from a polyolefin plastic sheet into a solid line shape as shown in the developed view of FIG. 3, and a fold line is formed at a broken line position, and the spacer 10 is bent along the broken line to assemble. It has been done. In FIG. 3, the long broken line indicates that the sheet is bent upward and the short broken line indicates that the sheet is bent downward.

As shown in FIG. 2, the spacer 10 has a box shape with edges, and each side of the bottom plate portion 11 corresponding to the bottom surface thereof has a pair of side plate portions 12 and 12 and a hem plate portion. 14 and 14 are bent at right angles and connected, and leg plates 13, 13, 15, and 15 are bent on the outer sides of the side plate portions 12 and 12 and the hem plate portions 14 and 14, respectively, to form edges. Is forming.

The leg plate portions 13 and 13 connected to the pair of facing side plate portions 12 and 12 are fixed to the back surface of the base plate layer 2 of the interior plate 1 by a fastener 19 or a means such as fusion bonding. Since the leg plates 15 and 15 connected to the other pair of opposite hem plate portions 14 and 14 are not fixed, the folding lines connecting the bottom plate portion 11, the hem plate portion 14 and the leg plate portion 15 are expanded and bent. Is free.

The skirt plate portion 14 and the leg plate portion 15 prevent the side plate portion 12 from inclining around the bending line of the leg plate portion 13 as an axis in a state where the side plate portion 12 and the leg plate portion 15 are assembled by bending, and the bottom plate due to the pressing. This is for preventing the deformation of the portion 11. Further, in order to prevent the leg plate portion 15 from moving outward, a support plate 18 can be fixed to the outside of the leg plate portion 15 on the back surface of the substrate layer 2, or a folding screen that can be bent inward to the left and right of the hem plate portion 14. The part 16 may be provided.

As described above, the spacer 10 has the hem plate portion 14 and the leg plate portion 15 and the folding plate portion 16 connected to the hem plate portion 14 expanded so that they are flush with the bottom plate portion 11 and the side plate portion. When 12 is laid down to the substrate layer 1 side, it becomes as shown in FIG. 4, and the thickness of the spacer 10 can be reduced to 1/3 or less. Therefore, it is possible to improve the storage efficiency during storage and transportation of the interior material, and prevent the spacer 10 from coming off the interior plate 1 due to contact with the interior materials or other objects.

As a material for the substrate layer 2 and the spacer 10, a honeycomb sheet 20 in which a plastic sheet having a cross section shown in FIG. 5 is combined instead of the plastic sheet in the above embodiment is also effective. Can be used. In this honeycomb sheet 20, flat plastic sheets 21 and 23 are attached to both surfaces of a thermoplastic plastic sheet 22 having a large number of small recesses 24, and the thickness of each sheet is 0.1 to 0. 7 mm, the total thickness is 2 to 6 mm, and the small recess 24 is cylindrical and has a diameter of about 3 to 7 mm.

Due to the so-called sandwich effect, such a honeycomb sheet 20 is lightweight and has high rigidity, and is therefore extremely useful as a substrate layer material for an interior material for vehicles. The honeycomb sheet 20 can be easily formed with the notches 28 by pressing a wedge-shaped hot blade 29 as shown in FIG. 6, and can be bent and unfolded. When the sheet material is a polyolefin-based material, it can be bent on the side of the cut 28 and on the opposite side without breaking the cut 28 portion by repeated bending and expansion.

In the above embodiment, the case where the spacer of the vehicle interior material of the present invention is applied to the recess for accommodating the spare tire in the trunk room has been described. It can be applied to the recess. It can also be applied when articles are not stored in the partial recess provided in the vehicle panel, and in this case, the spacer 10 described above is attached to the portion of the interior plate 1 corresponding to the recess. To form vehicle interior materials. Furthermore, the flatness of the inner material may be always maintained by providing a plurality of spacers having different assembly heights and selecting the spacers to be assembled depending on the presence or absence of the contents in the recess.

[0019]

[Effect of device]

 Since the vehicle interior material of the present invention is configured as described above, it can be made bulky by unfolding the assembled box-shaped spacers and then folding the spacers. In addition to improving efficiency, it is possible to prevent problems such as the spacer coming off the interior plate from coming into contact with each other or other interior materials.

Further, since the spacer is formed by an assembly method, it is lightweight, and a plurality of spacers can be installed at desired positions. Therefore, even if the interior material is thin and the rigidity is low, the spacer is depressed in the recess. Can be prevented.
