Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/155263
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a structure for attaching an annular bezel (114) to a hole (106) formed in a vehicle body. The edge of said hole comprises: an arc section (108) that follows a base circle; a concave section (110) that is notched radially outwards from the base circle; and a protruding section (112a) that forms a protrusion (112), in the concave section, that protrudes radially inwards. The aforementioned bezel (114) is provided with: a main body (114b) that is inserted into the aforementioned hole; and an annular flange (114a) that covers the edge of said hole from the outside. A plurality of prongs (116, 122) are provided on the outer surface of the aforementioned main body (114b). The protrusion (112) on the aforementioned hole can be sandwiched between one (116) of said prongs and the back surface of the aforementioned flange (114a). When the bezel (114) is attached to the hole (106), said protrusion (112) can deform elastically under pressure from the tip of the flange (114a) adjacent to the aforementioned one prong (116).
