Abstract:
A mounting structure of a resin molded article, wherein the resin molded article comprises an elongated main body and a plurality of clip mounting sections formed intermittently along a longitudinal direction, each clip mounting section is composed of a pair of mount ribs facing each other, each mount rib has a protrusion, and each protrusion protrudes from an outside face of the corresponding mount rib, wherein:the resin molded article is mounted to a body panel with a clip corresponding to a position of the mount ribs, the clip has a latch claw to be latched to one of the protrusions, a slip-proof lug provided opposite to the latch claw to prevent the latch claw from slipping from the one protrusion, and an engagement portion engaged with the body panel at a side opposite to the body panel; pthe latch claw of the clip is latched at the one protrusion to be mounted to the resin molded article, and the engagement portion of the clip is mounted to the body panel, thereby mounting the resin molded article to the body panel; at least one of the mount rib and the latch claw has a first position-fixing section surface, and the clip has a corresponding second fixing surface, and the first fixing surface engages the second fixing surface for fixing a position of the clip in at least one longitudinal direction of the resin molded article; each mount rib is joined to the elongated main body at a proximal end, and the thickness of the proximal end of each mount rib is less than the thickness of the elongated main body; and each mount rib includes a reinforcement rib for improving the strength of the resin molded article, wherein each reinforcement rib forms a longitudinal end of the corresponding mount rib, and each reinforcement rib is inclined such that the distance by which each reinforcement rib extends from the resin molded article increases in a direction from the longitudinal end of the mount rib toward the center of the mount rib.
