Trim for vehicles and door trim for vehicles
It is an object of the present invention to provide a trim for vehicles capable of reducing the number of parts and thereby reducing the cost when a plurality of shock absorbing portions are required to have different hardnesses from each other. The trim for vehicles according to the present invention is a door trim 20 including a lower board 21 , and a pull handle 40 mounted on the lower board 21 , further including a plurality of shock absorbing portions with different hardnesses capable of absorbing shock energy, wherein an extension portion 50 of the plurality of shock absorbing portions is formed integrally with the pull handle 40 , and the extension portion 50 has a shape extending downward from the pull handle 40.
1. A trim for a panel assembly of a vehicle including an inner panel and an outer panel, the trim comprising:
a trim body mounted on an inner compartment side of the inner panel;
a functional part mounted on the trim body; and
a plurality of shock absorbing parts with different hardnesses configured to absorb shock energy, the plurality of shock absorbing parts including:
a first shock absorbing part integrally provided with the functional part so as to extend from the functional part and mounted on a first portion of the trim body on an inner panel side; and
a second shock absorbing part mounted on a second portion of the trim body, the second shock absorbing part having a hardness different from a hardness of the first shock absorbing part, wherein
the first shock absorbing part is a box-like shape with an opening provided on a trim body side thereof.
2. The trim according to claim 1 , wherein the second portion of the trim body is located adjacent to the first portion of the trim body.
3. The trim according to claim 1 , wherein the second shock absorbing part is a shock absorbing pad made of a foamed material.
4. The trim according to claim 1 , wherein the first shock absorbing part is a truncated pyramid-like shape with an opening provided on the trim body side thereof, and
wherein a width of the first shock absorbing part increases toward the trim body.
5. The trim according to claim 1 , wherein the first shock absorbing part is harder than the second shock absorbing part.
6. A trim for a side door panel of a vehicle including an inner panel and an outer panel, the trim comprising:
a trim body mounted on an inner compartment side of the inner panel;
a functional part mounted on the trim body, the functional part including a functional portion and a shock absorbing portion extending from the functional portion, such that the functional part is formed as a single unit the shock absorbing portion being configured to absorb shock energy and mounted on an inner panel side of the trim body; and
a shock absorbing part configured to absorb shock energy and mounted on the trim body adjacent to the shock absorbing portion of the functional part in a front-rear direction of the vehicle, the shock absorbing part having a hardness different from a hardness of the shock absorbing portion of the functional part.
7. The trim according to claim 6 , wherein the trim is a door trim including a vehicle door;
the functional part is a pull handle for opening and closing the vehicle door; and
the shock absorbing portion of the functional part extends downward from the pull handle.
8. The trim according to claim 7 , wherein the shock absorbing portion of the functional part is arranged at a position facing a thigh of a seat occupant when the seat occupant is seated, and
wherein the shock absorbing part is arranged at a position facing a waist of the seat occupant when the seat occupant is seated.
9. The trim according to claim 6 , wherein the shock absorbing portion of the functional part includes:
a connecting wall that continues from the functional portion;
opposing side walls that extend downwardly from the connecting wall; and
a bottom wall that extends between the opposing side walls.
10. The trim according to claim 9 , wherein the shock absorbing portion of the functional part further includes:
a rear wall extending between the opposing side walls and connected to the bottom wall at a rear side of the bottom wall,
wherein the functional part is mounted on the trim body such that the rear wall faces the inner panel when the trim is mounted to the inner panel, and
wherein when the rear wall is pressed by the inner panel during a side impact collision, the opposing side walls deform such that a distance therebetween increases.
