The movement of the locking portions 23 and 23 is suppressed by the frictional force with the weather strip 16. Since the attachment work of other parts (suction cups 24-26) can be performed in the state where the locking parts 23 and 23 are locked, the mounting work can be easily performed.

  Please refer to FIG. FIG. 4A shows the insect net 20 attached to the vehicle body 11. FIG. 4B is a sectional view taken along line 4b-4b of FIG.

  Since the latching | locking parts 23 and 23 are latched along the tangent L1, L1 which contact | connects the upper corner parts 12u and 12u, the movement to the vehicle width direction and an up-down direction of the insect-proof net 20 can be suppressed. As a whole, the locking portions 23 and 23 face the direction perpendicular to the tangent lines L1 and L1. Since the attaching operation of other parts can be performed in a state where the engaging portions 23 and 23 are engaged, the attaching operation can be easily performed.

  In other words, the frictional force with the weather strip 16 can be used to simplify the mounting operation. Installation work can be simplified while using existing parts.

  Further, the left and right engaging portions 23, 23 are located at the boundary between the mesh portion 21 and the peripheral portion 22, and the peripheral portion 22 supports suckers 24 to 26 for fixing the insect net 20 to the vehicle body 11. . Even when the portion of the vehicle body 11 to which the suction cups 24 to 26 are attached is located in front of the weather strip 16, the locking portions 23 and 23 are located at the boundary, and the suction cups 24 to 26 are peripheral portions. By being located at 22, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a gap between the insect-proof net 20 and the vehicle body 11. Insects can be prevented more reliably.

  Furthermore, suction cups 24-26 are used for the fixture. Since it can be attached regardless of the shape of the vehicle body 11, the attachment property is high. In addition, since the suction cups 24 to 26 are lighter than a magnet or the like, the insect net 20 can be prevented from falling due to its own weight.

  Furthermore, the fasteners 27, 27 provided at the two left and right positions are located between the left and right engaging portions 23, 23 with respect to the vehicle width direction. The load at the time of operating the fasteners 27 and 27 can be received in the right and left locking portions 23 and 23. Movement of the insect net 20 due to the operation of the fasteners 27, 27 can be suppressed.

  Please refer to FIG. At least some of the suction cups 25 and 26 are fixed to recesses 11 a and 11 b formed in the vehicle body 11. For this reason, even if the tailgate 13 is accidentally closed while the insect net 20 is attached, the load that can be applied to the suction cups 25 and 26 and the tailgate 13 can be reduced.

  Further, the recesses 11a and 11b are storage recesses 11a and 11a for storing the damper stays 14 and 14, or contact recesses 11b and 11b with which stoppers 15 and 15 attached to the tailgate 13 contact. There is no need to form additional recesses for fixing the suction cups 25, 26, which is beneficial.

  Although the present invention is applied to the tailgate in the embodiment, it may be applied to a door that swings in the horizontal direction.

  The present invention is suitable for a vehicle having a tailgate.
