Automobile interior component
A projecting part is provided at the tip of a flange. With a trim body being tilted down on one of the vehicle front and rear sides, by a portion around one end of the flange being firstly inserted into a groove provided on the vehicle body panel side, the flange and the groove as a whole function as means for determining an initial mount position of the trim body relative to the vehicle body panel. The projecting part is positioned around the one end of the flange firstly inserted into the groove and enters inside the groove preceding the portion around the one end of the flange when an insert position misalignment of the flange relative to the groove occurs. Thus, the projecting part functions as means for correcting the insert position misalignment of the flange.
1. An automotive interior component comprising:
a trim body formed of resin to have a predetermined shape;
a trim mount-fixing member for mounting and fixing the trim body onto a vehicle body panel;
a flange folded back downward from an upper edge of the trim body; and
a projecting part provided at a tip of the flange, wherein
with the trim body being tilted down on one of vehicle front and rear sides, by a portion around one end of the flange being firstly inserted into a groove provided on the vehicle body panel side, the flange and the groove as a whole function as determining an initial mount position of the trim body relative to the vehicle body panel,
by the projecting part being positioned only around the one end of the flange firstly inserted into the groove and entering inside the groove preceding the portion around the one end of the flange when an insert position misalignment of the flange relative to the groove occurs, the projecting part functions as correcting the insert position misalignment of the flange, and
the projecting part functions as allowing an operator to ascertain a provision of a desired gap between the tip of the flange and a bottom of the groove by providing the operator with an abutting touch of a tip of the projection against the bottom of the groove.
2. An automotive interior component mounted to a vehicle body panel having a groove, the automotive interior component comprising:
a trim body formed of resin to have a predetermined shape;
a trim mount-fixing member for mounting and fixing the trim body onto the vehicle body panel;
a flange folded back downward from an upper edge of the trim body, the flange having a first end that is firstly inserted into the groove; and
a projecting part located at a tip of the flange only around the first end, the projecting part configured to correct an insert position misalignment of the flange when the insert position misalignment of the flange relative to the groove occurs, the projecting part configured to allow an operator to ascertain a provision of a desired gap between the tip of the flange and a bottom of the groove by providing the operator with an abutting touch of a tip of the projecting portion against the bottom of the groove.
