Description

  The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a shielding member provided in a window of a vehicle, and belongs to the field of vehicle interior technology.

  In recent years, in vehicles, in addition to an airbag device for protecting an occupant from an impact load from the front, a curtain airbag device for protecting the occupant from an impact load from the side is sometimes provided. In this curtain airbag device, an airbag is housed in the vehicle front-rear direction above the windows and pillars forming the side of the vehicle body, and the airbag is subjected to gas pressure from the inflator when an impact load is applied from the side. For example, the top ceiling that covers the roof panel from the vehicle interior side is deformed or broken and expanded downward along the window glass or the inner surface of the pillar.

On the other hand, for the purpose of ensuring the privacy of the passenger compartment or improving the comfort of the passenger compartment, a shield member such as a curtain or a blind that shields the line of sight from the outside of the vehicle is installed as an optional item on the side or rear window of the rear seat of the vehicle Sometimes. Patent Document 1 discloses a shield member having this curtain airbag function as this type of shielding member.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-48902

  By the way, when the curtain airbag device is operated, the top sealing is deformed downward by the inflation of the airbag, and the window disposed on the window on the side surface of the vehicle body from the gap formed near the side end portion of the top sealing due to the deformation. In the case of a structure in which the airbag is deployed downward along the glass, the following problems may occur when a shielding member such as a curtain or a blind is attached to the window.

  In other words, when a shielding member is attached to the window, and this shielding member is positioned at the upper part of the window, the curtain airbag device is activated, and the air bag deforms from the gap generated by deforming the top ceiling downward. When attempting to deploy downward along the window glass, the airbag comes into contact with the shielding member at the upper part of the window. Therefore, the smooth deployment of the airbag is hindered, and there is a possibility that the passenger protection function cannot be fully exhibited. Therefore, when the curtain airbag device as described above is equipped, it is difficult to attach a shielding member such as a curtain or a blind to the window on the side of the vehicle body.

  In addition, this type of shielding member may be attached to the side edge of the top ceiling on the inside of the window in a suspended manner, but when the curtain airbag device having the above-described structure is installed. When the shielding member is attached to the top sealing, when the airbag is inflated during operation of the curtain airbag device, the airbag penetrates between the shielding member and the window glass and is inflated to break the shielding member or It will be deployed while forcibly moving to the vehicle interior side.

  Therefore, it is considered that the airbag to be deployed is deployed on the vehicle outer side than the shield member in the shielded state, and the smooth deployment of the airbag is hindered by the shield member existing on the vehicle inner side than the airbag deployment position. When a curtain airbag device is installed, it is practically difficult to attach a shielding member such as a curtain to the window.
