ンド２ａか装看されている。A conventional automobile instrument panel is shown in FIGS. 1 to 3. In these figures, a conventional instrument panel 1 includes an instrument panel main body 2 made of a synthetic resin material such as PP, and a meter unit that is attached to the instrument panel main body 2 by screws 3 or the like. 4, and A that is attached to the instrument panel body 2 by covering the side 4b-1 of the transparent front cover 4a of the meter unit 4 and cutting an edge with the screws 5, etc.
The 2v1 cluster lid 6 is made of a synthetic resin material such as BS resin, and has an opening edge 6a facing the side 4b of the meter unit 4. On the other hand, a band 2a is mounted on the instrument panel main body 2.

それがあり、改善が望１れでいる。However, in the conventional instrument panel 1, an appropriate gap is provided between the side 4b of the meter unit 4 and the opening +4 edge 6a of the cluster lid 6 to prevent the meter unit 4 and the cluster lid 6 from interfering and causing abnormal noise. However, due to changes in external conditions such as temperature and humidity over time, the opening end #6a of the cluster lid 6 moves from the normal position indicated by the imaginary line to the thick line as shown in Fig. 3. There is a risk that the meter unit 4 may be deformed in its position, completely obstructing the visibility of the meter unit 4, or causing a complete deterioration in the quality of the appearance, which may seriously damage the overall quality of the product.Therefore, improvements are desired.
本発明は、このような改善点に着目してなされたもので
、クラスターリッドが変形したり、メーターユニットの
視認性を妨げたりすることがなく、外観品質が安定する
インストルメントパネル全提供することを目的とする。The present invention has been made with attention to such improvements, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an entire instrument panel that does not deform the cluster lid or obstruct the visibility of the meter unit, and has a stable appearance quality. With the goal.
本発明の女点は、クラスターリッドの開口端とメーター

、両者を互いに嵌合保止することにめる。The female feature of the present invention is that a square groove is provided on one of the open end of the cluster lid and the peripheral end of the side portion of the meter unit, so that the two are fitted and secured to each other.
以下、第４図に示す一実施例にエリ本発明を説明する。The present invention will be explained below with reference to an embodiment shown in FIG.
尚、従来と同一部分には同一符号を用いて説明する。Note that the same reference numerals will be used to describe the same parts as in the prior art.

嵌合係止させればよい。The opening end edge 6a of the instrument panel 1aid and MiJ instrument panel lid 6 of this embodiment has a U-shaped concave groove 6b, and the meter unit is inserted into the groove 6b. The sides 4bhm of 4 are engaged and locked. Note that the groove 6
Generally, the fitting range of the side portion 4b and the side portion 4b extends over the entire circumference of the meter unit 4, but if it is safe, it may be fitted only to the upper and lower sides of the meter unit 4. If the front edge 4b and the opening edge 6a interfere with each other and cause abnormal noise, if necessary, attach a tape-shaped or sheet-shaped cushioning material 7 in the groove 6b, and remove the cushioning material. The side portion 4b may be fitted and locked to the inner assembly U of No.7.

きる。As explained above, according to the present invention, since the opening end of the cluster lint is fixed to the side of all meter units, the opening end of the cluster lint deforms as time passes and external conditions change. The instrument panel can be used to maintain the visibility of the meter unit without any damage, and to maintain stable appearance quality.

る。In addition, since the relationship between the two ministries uses a simple fitting structure, the cluster lid can be assembled and fixed to the panel at the same time as the locking mechanism, and it can be easily locked without requiring any special tools or skills. It is possible to add processes to the conventional assembly line without causing any confusion, and it is a step towards mass production.
