Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] Each of a plurality of interior materials covers a body panel that constitutes a vehicle body. However, as in Patent Document 1 above, the body panels covered by each of the interior materials forming a continuous armrest may be different from each other. In such a case, for example, since each interior material is adjusted according to the standard of the body panel to which it is attached, there may be a slight deviation between the interior materials. That is, there may be a deviation in the height of the armrest portion in each interior material. In such a case, even a slight deviation may cause a problem of deteriorating the design of the vehicle interior or giving a sense of discomfort to a passenger using the armrest.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a vehicle interior structure that does not deteriorate the design of the vehicle interior and does not give a sense of discomfort to a passenger when using the armrest.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] To solve the above problems, the vehicle interior structure disclosed in this application is: A vehicle interior structure comprising: a first interior material covering the interior side of a first body panel constituting the body of a vehicle; and a second interior material covering the interior side of a second body panel constituting the body of a vehicle, which is different from the first body panel, wherein the first interior material and the second interior material form a design that is continuous in the horizontal direction, The first interior material has an armrest portion that extends to the end on the second interior material side, The second interior material is, The main body member that covers the second body panel, The vehicle interior side of the main body member is superimposed on the armrest member, and the armrest member is attached to either the second body panel or the main body member so as to be continuous with the armrest portion, The present invention is characterized in that an intervening member can be interposed between the armrest member and the other, and the height position of the armrest member relative to the main body member can be changed by changing the number of intervening members.

[0007] In cases where an armrest is formed continuously on two interior materials, it is difficult to confirm whether there is a discrepancy in the height of the armrests formed on the two interior materials until the first body panel, first interior material, second body panel, and second interior material are all assembled during the manufacturing stage. Therefore, even if a discrepancy occurs in a configuration where the armrest is continuous on two interior materials, no special measures have been taken to address it. The vehicle interior structure disclosed in this application allows the height of the armrest member of the second interior material to be matched to the height of the armrest portion of the first interior material by adjusting the number of interposing members, thereby preventing deterioration of the design of the vehicle interior and ensuring that the occupant does not feel uncomfortable when using the armrest. Furthermore, the vehicle interior structure disclosed in this application can accommodate cases where the armrest member is higher or lower than the armrest portion of the first interior material, for example, if the armrest member is designed to be at the same height as the armrest portion of the first interior material when a predetermined number of interposing members are installed.

[0008] In the vehicle interior structure disclosed in this application, the "intervening member" is preferably, for example, a plate-like material with a relatively thin thickness. Furthermore, the intervening member is preferably made of, for example, resin or metal, and has sufficient rigidity so that its thickness does not change when it is intervened. In other words, in the vehicle interior structure disclosed in this application, it is possible to use only resin intervening members, only metal intervening members, or a combination of resin and metal intervening members. Incidentally, in the vehicle interior structure disclosed in this application, "changing the number of intervening members" also includes setting the number of intervening members to zero.

[0009] In the above configuration, one of the components includes a bracket portion that protrudes toward the interior of the vehicle, the bracket portion has an upward-facing mounting surface for fastening the armrest member, the armrest member has a facing surface opposite the mounting surface, and the intervening member can be interposed between the mounting surface and the facing surface.

[0010] In this vehicle interior structure, the armrest member is fastened to the bracket by being placed on it with multiple interposing members in between, making it relatively easy to change the height of the armrest member.

[0011] In the above configuration, each of the multiple interposing members is a plate-shaped member having two or more protrusions projecting from one side and the same number of holes into which the two or more protrusions fit. The armrest member has a connecting portion on the lower side of the opposing surface that is the same shape as either the protrusions or the holes, and the configuration allows for holding multiple interposing members in an overlapping state.

[0012] This vehicle interior structure allows the armrest member to be set in its mounting position with the required number of interposing members attached to it, making it easy to install the armrest member, and thus easy to change the height of the armrest member.

[0013] In the above configuration, the second interior material may be configured to include a fastening cover member that covers the portion where the mounting surface and the opposing surface are fastened together from the inside of the vehicle.

[0014] In this vehicle interior structure configuration, the fastening points between the mounting surface and the opposing surface can be accessed from inside the vehicle before the fastening cover members are assembled. Therefore, with this vehicle interior structure configuration, even after the main body member has been attached to the second body panel, it is possible to change the height of the armrest member by changing the number of intervening members. In other words, with this vehicle interior structure configuration, the height of the armrest member of the second interior member can actually be changed compared to the armrest portion of the first interior member, thus more reliably matching the height of the armrest member to that of the armrest portion.

[0015] In the above configuration, the armrest member has an extension portion that extends downward from the portion below the opposing surface, the main body member has a through hole into which the extension portion is inserted, and the extension portion can be configured to have a constant width in the direction of the vehicle interior and exterior.

[0016] In this vehicle interior structure, the lower part of the armrest member is configured such that an extension is inserted into a through-hole formed in the main body member. Therefore, this vehicle interior structure allows for vertical positional changes of the armrest member relative to the main body member, while suppressing displacement in the direction of the vehicle interior and exterior, regardless of the height position of the armrest member.

[0017] In the above configuration, the first interior material is a door trim that covers the passenger compartment side of the side door, which is the first body panel, and the second interior material is a rear side trim that forms the side wall of the passenger compartment behind the door trim.

[0018] Many vehicle seats are designed to recline and move forward and backward, and simply providing armrests on the side doors located to the sides of the seats may not provide sufficient length in the forward and backward direction. With this vehicle interior structure, the armrest portion of the side door extends to the rear side trim, allowing occupants to comfortably use the armrest even when the seat is reclined or moved backward. [Effects of the Invention]

[0019] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a vehicle interior structure that does not impair the aesthetic design of the vehicle interior and does not cause discomfort to the occupant when using the armrest. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

Embodiments for Carrying out the Invention

[0021] The vehicle interior structure according to an embodiment of the present invention is a vehicle interior structure 10 adopted in a vehicle as a vehicle. This vehicle interior structure 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 12. In a part of the drawings, directions are indicated using the reference signs Fr, Rr, In, Out, U, D, which represent the front side, rear side, inner side of the vehicle cabin (left side of the vehicle) in the vehicle width direction, outer side of the vehicle cabin (right side of the vehicle), upper side, and lower side of the vehicle, respectively.

[0022] As shown in Figure 1, the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment is used in the interior structure of the part that includes the side door 12, which is the side wall of the vehicle, and the side body 14 of the vehicle body. More specifically, this vehicle interior structure 10 includes a door trim 16 that covers the inside of the passenger compartment of the door panel (first body panel) of the side door 12, and a rear side trim 18 that covers the inside of the passenger compartment of the rear side panel (second body panel) of the side body 14, and is used in the part that forms a horizontally continuous design by the door trim 16 and the rear side trim 18. In this embodiment, the explanation uses the right side of the vehicle, but the same vehicle interior structure 10 is used on the left side of the vehicle as well.

[0023] The door trim 16 consists of a generally plate-shaped lower board 20 that constitutes the relatively lower portion, a generally plate-shaped upper board 21 that constitutes the relatively upper portion, and an armrest board 22 that is positioned between the lower board 20 and the upper board 21 and bulges outwards into the passenger compartment. The armrest board 22 extends to the rear end of the door trim 16 in the vehicle's longitudinal direction. In other words, the door trim 16 has an armrest portion 16a extending in the vehicle's longitudinal direction near its center in the vertical direction.

[0024] As shown in Figure 1, vehicles employing this vehicle interior structure 10 have a configuration that allows the rear seat 24 to recline significantly to the rear. The armrest portion 16a provided on the door trim 16 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "door-side armrest portion 16a") extends to the rear edge, but for an occupant seated in the reclined rear seat 24, the length is insufficient to the rear. Therefore, in this embodiment, an armrest portion 18a (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "extended armrest portion 18a") is provided on the rear side trim 18, which is continuous with the door-side armrest portion 16a. As shown in Figure 1, the rear side trim 18 is composed of a seat side garnish 26 that forms the right side perimeter of the rear seat 24 at the same height as the door trim 16, and a quarter window trim 27 that is positioned on the upper part of the seat side garnish 26 and forms the window frame portion 27a of the quarter window, and the extended armrest portion 18a is provided on the seat side garnish 26.

[0025] In a vehicle employing the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment, the body, including the door trim 16 (a first interior material), the door panel (a first body panel to which the door trim 16 is attached), the rear side trim 18 (a second interior material), and the rear side panel (a second body panel to which the rear side trim 18 is attached), is naturally manufactured separately during the manufacturing process and assembled in a later stage. The door trim 16 is manufactured relative to the door panel, and the rear side trim 18 is manufactured relative to the rear side panel. Since the door trim 16 and the rear side trim 18 are connected by multiple reference points, slight errors may occur between them. Furthermore, in the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment, since the armrest spans both the door trim 16 and the rear side trim 18, it is difficult to confirm whether there is a discrepancy in height between the door-side armrest portion 16a and the extended armrest portion 18a until they are all assembled during the manufacturing process. On the other hand, even a slight discrepancy in their heights can cause problems such as discomfort for the occupant when using the armrests or a deterioration in the aesthetic design of the vehicle interior. The vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment has a structure that can address such problems.

[0026] The vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment is characterized by its seat side garnish 26, which allows it to address the above-mentioned problems. The configuration of the seat side garnish 26 will be described in detail below. The seat side garnish 26 is composed of a main body member 30 that covers the rear side panel and an armrest member 32 for forming the extended armrest portion 18a described above. The main body member 30 is broadly composed of three members: a lower member 34, an upper front member 35, and an upper rear member 36. The armrest member 32 is arranged superimposed on the interior side of the main body member 30. More specifically, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, it is located between the lower member 34 and the upper front member 35 in the vertical direction, and at the front end of the seat side garnish 26.

[0027] In the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment, the armrest member 32 is configured to allow for easy adjustment of its height relative to the main body member 30. This prevents deterioration of the interior design of the vehicle interior structure 10 and ensures that the occupant does not feel uncomfortable when using the armrest. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the vehicle interior structure 10 allows for the removal of the armrest member 32 from the main body member 30, and furthermore, it allows for removal even after the seat side garnish 26 has been attached to the rear side panel.

[0028] The main body member 30, separate from the lower member 34, upper front member 35, and upper rear member 36, forms the exterior portion of the armrest member 32 in the area enclosed by these members, and is equipped with a mounting member 40 for attaching the armrest member 32. This mounting member 40 has an opening 42 that penetrates in the direction of the interior and exterior of the vehicle, and when fixed to the rear side panel, a bracket 44 fixed so as to protrude from the surface of the rear side panel toward the interior of the vehicle is positioned so as to protrude from the opening 42 toward the interior of the vehicle. The bracket 44 protrudes toward the interior of the vehicle from near the upper edge of the opening 42 and has an upward-facing mounting surface 44a. As shown in Figures 4 and 5, a rectangular through hole 46 is formed in the mounting surface 44a, and a grommet 48 is attached to the through hole 46. The mounting member 40 also has other holes for attaching the armrest member 32, but these will be described later.

[0029] On the other hand, as shown in Figures 5 and 6, the armrest member 32 includes an armrest body portion 50 that forms the design surface on the upper side and the interior side of the vehicle, and a mounting portion 52 that extends from the back side of the armrest body portion 50 toward the interior side of the vehicle and is attached to the main body member 30. The mounting portion 52 has a horizontal surface portion 53 that is long in the front-rear direction and extends horizontally above the armrest body portion 50, and a front wall surface portion 54 that extends downward along the front side of the armrest body portion 50, continuous with the front end of the horizontal surface portion 53. The horizontal surface portion 53 has an opposing surface 53a on its lower side that faces the mounting surface 44a of the bracket 44. In the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment, it is possible to interpose an intervening plate (intervening member) 56 between the mounting surface 44a and the opposing surface 53a.

[0030] The interfacing plate 56 is made of synthetic resin and is generally a rectangular plate-shaped member, as shown in Figures 7 and 8. The interfacing plate 56 has a total of three through holes 58 and 59 of two types that penetrate in the thickness direction. The through hole 58 is formed in the center of the interfacing plate 56 and is for inserting the fasteners that will be described later (hereinafter referred to as "insertion holes 58"). On the other hand, the other type of two through holes 59 are cross-shaped through holes (hereinafter referred to as "cross holes 59"), and are formed in a straight line extending in the longitudinal direction, at a distance L1 determined in the short direction from the center of the insertion holes 58, and are positioned at an equidistant position from the insertion holes 58. In addition, the interfacing plate 56 has two protrusions 60 formed thereon, as shown in Figure 8. These two protrusions 60 are formed on the opposite side of the two cross-shaped holes 59, extending in a straight line in the longitudinal direction at a distance L1 in the short direction from the center of the through hole 58, and at a position equal to the distance between the through hole 58 and the cross-shaped holes 59.

[0031] Therefore, as shown in Figure 5, when the two interfacing plates 56 are rotated 180° around the insertion hole 58, the insertion holes 58 of each interfacing plate 56 are aligned, causing the positions of the two cross-shaped holes 59 and the two protrusions 60 to coincide, and the two protrusions 60 to be fitted into the two cross-shaped holes (corresponding to the holes) 59. In other words, it is possible to stack three or more of these interfacing plates 56. Furthermore, the aforementioned opposing surface 53a has a through hole 62 with an inner diameter almost identical to that of the insertion hole 58, and two protrusions 63, which are the same shape as the protrusions 60 formed on the interfacing plate 56, are formed so as to have the same positional relationship with respect to the through hole 62 (see Figure 5) as the insertion hole 58 and the protrusions 60 (see Figure 9). Therefore, the intervening plate 56 can be attached to this opposing surface 53a using the two protrusions (corresponding to connecting parts) 63, that is, as shown in Figure 6, the intervening plate 56 can be held on the lower side of the opposing surface 53a.

[0032] Then, the armrest member 32 is positioned such that, for example, two interposing plates 56 are held on the lower side of the opposing surface 53a, and the interposing plates 56 are placed on the mounting surface 44a of the bracket 44, or more specifically, on the grommet 48 attached to the mounting surface 44a, as shown in Figures 9 and 10, and fastened from above (inside the vehicle interior) by screws 66.

[0033] As shown in Figure 6, the armrest member 32 (more specifically, the mounting portion 52) has upper projections 52a and 52b that protrude downward on the front and rear sides of the opposing surface 53a, respectively, and three lower projections 52c that protrude downward from the lower edge of the mounting portion 52. On the other hand, as shown in Figure 4, the mounting member 40 has insertion holes 40a, 40b, and 40c into which the upper projections 52a and 52b and the three lower projections 52c are inserted. These upper projections 52a and 52b and the three lower projections 52c are shaped to be able to be inserted and removed vertically from the insertion holes 40a, 40b, and 40c without getting caught, and the armrest member 32 can be easily attached and detached when not fastened with the aforementioned screw 66.

[0034] Incidentally, the downward protrusion 52c has a constant width in the direction of vehicle interior and exterior (vehicle width direction), and when inserted into the insertion hole 40c, its displacement in the direction of vehicle interior and exterior is restricted. In other words, even if the number of interposing plates 56 is changed, the configuration allows for vertical positional changes of the armrest member 32 relative to the mounting member 40, while restricting the displacement of the lower part of the armrest member 32 in the direction of vehicle interior and exterior. In short, these downward protrusions 52c extend downward from the part below the opposing surface 53a and function as extensions with a constant width in the direction of vehicle interior and exterior.

[0035] As shown in Figures 3, 5, and 10, the seat side garnish 26 is equipped with an upper cover member 70 that covers the horizontal surface 53, including the opposing surface 53a, from above. In other words, as shown in Figure 11, by removing the upper cover member 70, the armrest member 32 can be fastened to the mounting member 40 from inside the vehicle, and the armrest member 32 can be attached and detached even after the seat side garnish 26 has been attached to the rear side panel. In short, the upper cover member 70 functions as a fastening cover member that covers the area where the mounting surface 44a and the opposing surface 53a are fastened from the inside of the vehicle.

[0036] Furthermore, as shown in Figures 3 and 5, the seat side garnish 26 includes a front wall portion 54 and a front cover member 72 that covers the gap on the front side between the front wall portion 54 and the mounting member 40 (see Figure 11). The front cover member 72 has two fitting claws 74 and 75, a positioning projection 76, and a retaining claw 78 on its back side. The two fitting claws 74 and 75 fit into fitting holes 54a and 54b formed in the front wall portion 54 of the armrest member 32. The fitting claw 74 has a leaf spring 74a that is elastically deformed in the vertical direction, and the other fitting claw 75 has a leaf spring 75a that is elastically deformed in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, these two fitting claws 74 and 75 firmly fix the armrest member 32 so that it does not displace in either the vertical or vehicle width direction.

[0037] On the other hand, the positioning projection 76 and the retaining claw 78 are parts that engage with the mounting member 40, and engagement holes 40d and 40e are formed in which the positioning projection 76 and the retaining claw 78 engage. The engagement hole 40d corresponding to the positioning projection 76 is generally a hole that penetrates in the front-to-back direction, as shown in Figure 10, but its vertical dimension is set to be larger than the dimension of the positioning projection 76. The engagement hole 40e corresponding to the retaining claw 78 is generally a hole that penetrates diagonally upward, and the retaining claw 78 is configured to enter the engagement hole 40e from diagonally upward. Therefore, the retaining claw 78 and the engagement hole 40e restrict displacement of the front cover member 72 in the front-to-back direction, but allow for positional changes in the vertical direction. With this configuration, the front cover member 72 is attached to the armrest member 32 at a predetermined position, but allows for positional changes in the vertical direction relative to the mounting member 40.

[0038] In a vehicle employing the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment, the heights of the door-side armrest portion 16a and the extended armrest portion 18a are designed to match when two interposing plates 56 are installed. However, as mentioned above, after all parts are assembled, a height difference between the door-side armrest portion 16a and the extended armrest portion 18a may be observed.

[0039] Even in such cases, according to the vehicle interior structure 10 of this embodiment, the height position of the armrest member 32 relative to the main body member 30 can be changed by removing the armrest member 32 from the main body member 30, changing the number of intermediate plates 56, and reattaching it to the main body member 30. Specifically, if the extended armrest portion 18a is higher than the door-side armrest portion 16a, the number of intermediate plates 56 can be set to one or zero, and if the extended armrest portion 18a is lower than the door-side armrest portion 16a, the number of intermediate plates 56 can be increased by one or more to three or more. This makes it possible to make the height of the extended armrest portion 18a approximately the same as the height of the door-side armrest portion 16a, so as not to worsen the design of the interior of the vehicle and to avoid causing discomfort to the occupant when using the armrest.

[0040] <Other Embodiments> The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and can be implemented in various forms with various modifications and improvements based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art. For example, the following embodiments are also included within the technical scope of the present invention.

[0041] (1) In the vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment, an intermediary member can be interposed between the armrest member 32 and the bracket 44 fixed to the second body panel. However, it is also possible to provide a mounting surface on the main body member 30 and intermediary member to be interposed between the main body member 30 and the mounting surface.

[0042] (2) In the vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment, the armrest member 32 was configured to hold the intervening member, but it is not limited to this. For example, as described above, if the main body member 30 has a mounting surface and the mounting surface has dimensions that allow the intervening member to be attached, a configuration in which the intervening member is attached to the mounting surface can also be adopted. However, as in the vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment, it is considered that attaching the intervening member to the removed armrest member 32 is easier to work with.

[0043] (3) The shape of the interposing member and the configuration of overlapping in the vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment are not particularly limited. However, when the interposing plate 56 is held on the lower surface of the opposing surface 53a of the armrest member 32, as in the vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment, it can be held securely by a structure in which a projection 60 with a thickness similar to that of the interposing plate 56 is fitted. And, because a projection 60 with a thickness similar to that of the interposing plate 56 is provided, it is difficult to provide the projection and the hole in which the projection engages in the same position, and a configuration that allows for overlapping by rotating them alternately by 180°, as in the vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment, is preferred.

[0044] (4) The vehicle interior structure 10 of the above embodiment was used for an armrest that spanned the side door 12 and the side body 14, but is not limited to that. When an armrest spans two vehicle interior materials attached to different body panels, such as when an armrest spans between a side door and a pillar garnish, a vehicle interior structure with the configuration of the above embodiment can be used.

[0045] (5) In the above embodiments, the vehicle interior structure of the present invention was provided for vehicles (automobiles), but it is not limited thereto, and the vehicle interior structure of the present invention can be applied to various types of vehicles. [Explanation of Symbols]
