Cilp for fastening a mounting member to an automobile body |
摘要 |
To provide a clip 38 which maintains a force for coupling a trim board 39 to a base member 41 of the body of an automobile over a wide range of thicknesses of the base member. The clip 38 has a head 42 adapted to be engaged with and connected to the trim board 39 and a leg 43 extending from the head 42 and adapted to be inserted into a mounting hole of a base member 41 to be fastened thereto. The leg 43 includes a suction cup shaped flange 49 adjacent to the head 42 and adapted to contact one of the surfaces of the base member 41 and a shank 50 extending from the flange 49. The shank 50 has a flexible engagement section 54 formed in a larger diameter at a position in the vicinity of the flange 49 but spaced from the flange by a distance greater than the thickness of the base member 41. The suction cup shaped flange 49 is formed with at least one radial slit 53 yielding a resiliency to allow the marginal region 51 of the flange to be deformed toward the head 42 while retaining a force for pressing the base member 41 in the axial direction of the leg 43. The flexible engagement section 54 of the shank 50 includes a first flexible engagement region 55 close to the flange 49 and a second flexible engagement region 57 remote from the flange 49. The second flexible engagement region 57 is formed with a larger diameter than that of the first flexible engagement region 55.
