[0036] The vehicle accessory fixing structure according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 In this embodiment, a simplified longitudinal sectional view is used to illustrate the vehicle accessory fixing structure. It should be noted that... Figure 1 In the accompanying drawings, for ease of reference, the cross-sections of each component are represented by thick lines without wall thickness. Furthermore, to facilitate observation, the parts in contact with each other are shown slightly separated. Figure 1 In the diagram, arrow FR indicates the front side of the vehicle, and arrow UP indicates the upper side of the vehicle (in...). Figure 2A and Figure 2B The same applies to China.

[0037] Figure 1 The vehicle floor 10 shown is in Figure 1Within the range shown, the front portion 10F on the front side of the vehicle in the longitudinal direction is higher than the rear portion 10R on the rear side of the vehicle in the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, the front portion 10F and the rear portion 10R are connected by an inclined portion 10S that slopes downwards towards the rear of the vehicle. A first floor reinforcement 12 is disposed on the upper surface of the front portion 10F of the vehicle floor 10, and a second floor reinforcement 14 is disposed on the upper surface of the rear portion 10R of the vehicle floor 10. The first floor reinforcement 12 and the second floor reinforcement 14 extend in the vehicle width direction, and their cross-sectional shape when viewed from the side of the vehicle is formed into a top hat shape, protruding convexly towards the upper side of the vehicle. The flange portion is joined to the vehicle floor 10 by spot welding or the like.

[0038] As an example, vehicle accessories 50 (shown in block form for convenience in the figure) such as tools are mounted between the inclined portion 10S of the vehicle floor 10 and the second floor reinforcement 14. In this embodiment, the vehicle accessories 50 are positioned on the lower side of the vehicle, behind the vehicle seat 18 (shown only as a double-dotted line in the figure). It should be noted that, as an example, the vehicle accessories 50 may include multiple components, but it may also be a single component.

[0039] A floor carpet 20 is laid on the upper side of the vehicle floor 10. Figure 2A In the diagram, a portion of the floor carpet 20 and its surrounding area are simplified and represented in a three-dimensional view. For example... Figure 2A As shown, a cover 24 that can be opened and closed is formed in the floor carpet 20 through a cut 22. The cover 24 is sometimes also called a lid. It should be noted that... Figure 2B The image shows a simplified example of the open state of the cover 24. Figure 2A As shown, the cut 22 forms a roughly U-shaped opening towards the rear of the vehicle when viewed from above.

[0040] like Figure 2A and Figure 2B As shown, a through hole 24H is formed on a portion of the free end 24A side of the cover portion 24. The through hole 24H is formed in the middle portion of the cover portion 24 in the width direction, and is a slit-shaped hole with the direction along the extension direction of the free end 24A of the cover portion 24 as the length direction.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle accessory fixing structure of this embodiment has a strap 30 for securing the vehicle accessory 50 disposed between the vehicle floor 10 and the cover 24. The strap 30 is formed in the shape of a strip. One end 30A of the strap 30 is joined by sewing to the back side of the portion of the floor carpet 20 located opposite to the base end 24B side of the cover 24 (in this case, the front side of the vehicle) of the free end 24A of the cover 24 when the cover 24 is closed.

[0042] Additionally, the belt 30 passes through the underside of the vehicle accessory 50 and through the through hole 24H. A grip 32 is formed at the other end 30B of the belt 30. The grip 32 is sometimes also referred to as a handle. Figure 3A In the diagram, a portion of the other end 30B, including the band 30, is represented in a perspective view. Figure 3B The text shows the relationship with... Figure 3A A perspective view of the portion of the gripping part 32 on the side of the through hole 24H of the cover 24, viewed from different states.

[0043] like Figure 3A and Figure 3B As shown, as an example, the front end side structure 30T of the belt 30 is sewn together with the main body that constitutes most of the belt 30 (forming a portion from one end 30A (see reference)). Figure 1 The front end portion 30M1 of the main body 30M is joined to a portion of the other end 30B side. The front end portion 30M1 of the main body 30M overlaps by folding back, and the base end portion 30T1 of the front end side structure 30T is sewn to the overlapping portion.

[0044] In addition, the front end structure 30T is folded back to match the front end of the main body 30M, and is sewn to the front end 30M1 of the main body 30M in a manner that maintains this folded-back state (see reference). Figure 1 , Figure 2A The sewing part S1). In other words, the front side structure 30T stands upright in its configured state (see reference). Figure 1 It is sewn to the front end 30M1 of the main body 30M. The front end structure 30T is sewn in a loop-like manner on the front end side, and this loop-like part becomes the holding part 32. Figure 1 As shown, the upper end of the grip 32 is positioned higher than the cover 24 when closed, so that the position of the grip 32 can be easily distinguished even when viewed from the rear side of the vehicle interior.

[0045] like Figure 3A and Figure 3B As shown, on the other end 30B side of the belt 30, more specifically, on the base end 30T1 of the front end structure 30T, a hook and loop fastener 38 is provided on the side opposite to the front end 30M1 side of the main body 30M. Additionally, as... Figure 2A As shown, in the state where the cover 24 of the floor carpet 20 is closed, a mounting portion 26 is provided on the surface side of the portion opposite to the base end 24B side of the cover 24, relative to the free end 24A of the cover 24. A hook and loop fastener 40 is provided on this mounting portion 26 (see reference). Figure 2BHook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 are paired. One of the pairs of hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 is a hook-on hook and loop fastener (with hook-on hooks having a raised texture), and the other of the pairs of hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 is a napped hook and loop fastener (with napped texture). Thus, the hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 can be attached to or detached from the other end 30B side of the fastener 30 relative to the mounting part 26.

[0046] Next, the function and effects of this implementation method will be explained.

[0047] In this embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the floor carpet 20 is laid on the vehicle-top side of the vehicle floor 10, as... Figure 2A As shown, a cover 24 capable of opening and closing is formed in the floor carpet 20 through a cut 22, and a through hole 24H is formed on a portion of the free end 24A side of the cover 24. Additionally, as... Figure 1 As shown, a long strip 30 is used to secure the vehicle accessory 50 disposed between the vehicle floor 10 and the cover 24. One end 30A of the strip 30 is joined to the back side of the portion of the floor carpet 20 located opposite to the base end 24B side of the cover 24 when the cover 24 is closed. The strip 30 passes through the underside of the vehicle accessory 50 and through the through hole 24H, and a gripping portion 32 is formed at the other end 30B of the strip 30. Figure 2A Hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 are provided on the surface side of the portion of the other end 30B of the strip 30 shown, and on the portion of the floor carpet 20 located on the side opposite to the base end 24B of the cover 24 relative to the free end 24A of the cover 24 when the cover 24 is closed. The hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 can be attached to and detached from the portion of the other end 30B of the strip 30 relative to the mounting portion 26.

[0048] Therefore, vehicle supplies 50 are configured (stored) in Figure 1 In the state shown between the vehicle floor 10 and the cover 24, the holding part 32 of the other end 30B of the strap 30 is pulled toward the mounting part 26 of the floor carpet 20, and the part of the other end 30B of the strap 30 is mounted to the mounting part 26 with hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40. Thus, the vehicle accessory 50 is fixed in the configuration position in a constrained state (a tightened state).

[0049] Furthermore, since the strip 30 stands upright and its upper end is positioned higher than the cover 24 when closed, the position of the strip 30 is easily distinguishable when viewed from the rear side. Figure 2AWhen the floor carpet 20 shown is installed on the mounting part 26 using hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40, with the other end 30B side of the strap 30 attached, and the lifting handle 32 is pulled, the installation of the hook and loop fasteners 38 and 40 is released, and the other end 30B side of the strap 30 detaches from the mounting part 26. Figure 2B As shown, the cover 24 can be further opened.

[0050] As explained above, according to Figures 1-3B The vehicle accessory fixing structure shown in this embodiment can suppress the vibration of the vehicle accessory 50 when the vehicle is in motion and improve the operability when opening the cover 24. In addition, the generation of abnormal noise is suppressed by suppressing the vibration of the vehicle accessory 50.

[0051] The above describes one example of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above content. In addition to the above, various modifications can be made within the scope of its spirit.
