Lid assembly structure
In a lid assembly structure 1 which includes a base member 2 , a lid 3 , and an opening/closing mechanism 5 and in which the opening/closing mechanism 5 includes a biasing member 8 , during assembling of the base member 2 and the opening/closing mechanism 5 , the biasing member 8 is guided by a guide portion 90 which is a part of the opening/closing mechanism 5 , and a state of the biasing member 8 is changed from a temporary assembled state where a second engagement end 82 of the biasing member 8 and a temporary engagement portion 93 engage with each other to a main assembled state where the second engagement end 82 and a main engagement portion 91 of a mating member engage with each other, thereby accumulating at least a part of a biasing force in the biasing member 8.
1. A lid assembly structure comprising:
a base member attached to a vehicle body of a vehicle;
a lid whose position is changed between a closed position at which the lid covers an energy supply port provided in the vehicle body and an opened position at which the lid opens the energy supply port; and
an opening/closing mechanism assembled to the base member and the lid and configured to open/close the lid, wherein
the opening/closing mechanism includes a cover member assembled to the base member, a shaft assembled to the lid and rotatably supported on the cover member, and a biasing member attached to the shaft and configured to bias the lid to the opened position,
the shaft has a first engagement portion with which a first engagement end of the biasing member engages,
the cover member has a temporary engagement portion with which a second engagement end of the biasing member detachably engages,
the base member has a main engagement portion with which the second engagement end engages, and a guide portion configured to guide the second engagement end from the temporary engagement portion toward the main engagement portion, and
during assembling of the base member and the opening/closing mechanism, the biasing member whose first engagement end engages with the first engagement portion is guided by the guide portion, and a state of the biasing member is changed from a temporary assembled state where the second engagement end and the temporary engagement portion engage with each other to a main assembled state where the second engagement end and the main engagement portion engage with each other, thereby accumulating at least a part of a biasing force in the biasing member.
2. The lid assembly structure according to claim 1 , wherein the biasing member is externally fitted to the shaft in the temporary assembled state.
3. The lid assembly structure according to claim 1 , wherein the guide portion has an inclined wall shape.
4. A lid assembly structure comprising:
a base member attached to a vehicle body of a vehicle;
a lid whose position is changed between a closed position at which the lid covers an energy supply port provided in the vehicle body and an opened position at which the lid opens the energy supply port; and
an opening/closing mechanism assembled to the base member and the lid and configured to open/close the lid, wherein
the opening/closing mechanism includes a cover member assembled to the base member, a shaft assembled to the lid and rotatably supported on the cover member, and a biasing member attached to the shaft and configured to bias the lid to the opened position,
the base member has a first engagement portion with which a first engagement end of the biasing member engages, and a temporary engagement portion with which a second engagement end of the biasing member detachably engages,
the shaft has a main engagement portion with which the second engagement end engages, and a guide portion configured to guide the second engagement end from the temporary engagement portion toward the main engagement portion, and
during assembling of the base member and the opening/closing mechanism, the biasing member whose first engagement end engages with the first engagement portion is guided by the guide portion, and a state of the biasing member is changed from a temporary assembled state where the second engagement end and the temporary engagement portion engage with each other to a main assembled state where the second engagement end and the main engagement portion engage with each other, thereby accumulating at least a part of a biasing force in the biasing member.
5. The lid assembly structure according to claim 4 , wherein the biasing member is assembled to an outer edge of a through hole which is provided in the base member and into which the shaft is inserted, in the temporary assembled state, and is externally fitted to the shaft in the main assembled state.
6. The lid assembly structure according to claim 4 , wherein the guide portion has an inclined wall shape.
