Vehicle component fastening structure
The vehicle component fastening structure includes: a boss receptacle and a boss provided in a pair of the vehicle components, and a fastening member for fastening the boss and the boss receptacle. The boss receptacle has a through-hole penetrating in a fastening axis direction and a nipped portion provided inside the through-hole. The boss has a fastener hole, and a leading end of the boss oriented to a first direction abuts on the nipped portion. The fastening member has a shank inserted into the through-hole and the fastener hole in a second direction and a head abutting on the nipped portion. In the fastened state, a bottom face of the head abuts on the nipped portion, and the entire bottom face and a portion of the nipped portion where the leading end of the boss abuts are placed within a range of the through-hole in the fastening axis direction.
1. A vehicle component fastening structure for fixing two vehicle components, comprising:
a boss receptacle provided in one of the vehicle components, the boss receptacle having a through-hole penetrating in a fastening axis direction and a nipped portion provided inside the through-hole by insert-molding to be thinner than the through-hole in the fastening axis direction;
a boss provided in the other vehicle component, the boss internally having a fastener hole, a leading end of the boss oriented to a first direction of the fastening axis direction abutting on the nipped portion; and
a fastening member having a shank inserted into the through-hole in a second direction opposite to the first direction and inserted into the fastener hole through the nipped portion and a head abutting on the nipped portion,
wherein the head of the fastening member has a bottom face abutting on the nipped portion, and
the entire bottom face of the head of the fastening member and a portion of the nipped portion where the leading end of the boss abuts are placed within a range of the through-hole in the fastening axis direction.
2. The vehicle component fastening structure according to claim 1 , wherein the nipped portion has a disk shape and is provided in the boss receptacle by burying a circumferential edge of a radial direction into an inner surface of the through-hole, and
a buried amount of the circumference edge of the nipped portion in the radial direction is equal to or larger than a thickness of the nipped portion in the fastening axis direction.
3. The vehicle component fastening structure according to claim 1 , wherein the entire head is placed within a range of the through-hole in the fastening axis direction while the head of the fastening member abuts on the nipped portion.
4. The vehicle component fastening structure according to claim 1 , wherein the through-hole has a tapered surface having an inner diameter increasing toward the first direction in an end of the first direction side.
