Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A mounting structure of two resin components includes a primary component including an insertion piece extendedly provided from a base portion, and an engagement recessed portion formed in the insertion piece; and a secondary component formed capable of being mounted to the primary component and including an insertion portion configured to guide the insertion piece formed at the base portion, an engagement protruding portion formed in the insertion portion and configured to fit into the engagement recessed portion of the insertion piece, and a restriction wall configured to cover a root side of the insertion piece inserted into the insertion portion, and in a top plan view, a width of the restriction wall being gradually decreased toward a direction separating from a side where the primary component is mounted.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A mounting structure of resin components that is a mounting structure of two resin components, comprising: a primary component including an insertion piece extendedly provided from a base portion, and an engagement recessed portion formed in the insertion piece; and a secondary component capable of being mounted to the primary component, and including an insertion portion configured to guide the insertion piece formed at the base portion, an engagement protruding portion formed in the insertion portion and configured to fit into the engagement recessed portion of the insertion piece, and a restriction wall configured to cover a root side of the insertion piece inserted into the insertion portion in a top plan view of the mounting structure, wherein the restriction wall has a tapered shape, in the top plan view of the mounting structure, a width of the tapered shape is decreased toward an insertion direction of the insertion piece, the insertion direction is a direction separating from a side of the insertion portion where the primary component is mounted, the tapered shape permits the insertion piece to warp toward a direction orthogonal to the insertion direction of the insertion piece and to get over engagement protruding portion, and the tapered shape stops the insertion piece inserted into the insertion portion from removing from the insertion portion. 2. The mounting structure of resin components according to claim 1 , wherein the restriction wall includes a guide portion configured to guide a leading end portion of the insertion piece to a back end side of the insertion portion, and a pressing portion configured to cover a root portion of the insertion piece engaged with the engagement protruding portion. 3. The mounting structure of resin components according to claim 2 , wherein the primary component is a panel member of an air conditioner, and the secondary component is a duct member of the air conditioner. 4. The mounting structure of resin components according to claim 1 , wherein the primary component is a panel member of an air conditioner, and the secondary component is a duct member of the air conditioner.
