Bracket coupling structure
First Claim
1. A bracket coupling structure for coupling a bracket to a mounting objective plate body, comprising:
- hook portions disposed on at least two positions of a base plate of the bracket and having L-shape cross sections directed outward, respectively, with respect to a rotation center of the bracket; and
resilient catch-up blades disposed on distal ends, facing in an mounting rotational direction, of the book portions and sloped in directions to be separate away from the base plate toward an upstream of the mounting rotational direction;
wherein if the resilient catch-up blades are urged to the mounting objecting plate body during rotation of the bracket in the mounting rotational direction under a condition where the bracket is inserted to a mounting opening of the mounting objective plate body, the hook portions are brought into engagement with a peripheral edge of the mounting opening under a situation where the resilient catch-up blades are resiliently deformed by a resulting urging force.

Abstract
A bracket coupling structure is disclosed having hook portions 8, disposed on two positions of a base plate 5 of a panel-side bracket 2, and having L-shape cross sections directed outward, respectively, with respect to a rotation center wherein under a condition in which the hook portions 8 are inserted to a mounting opening 30 of a trim 4, the panel-side bracket 2 is rotated in a mounting rotational direction to cause the hook portions 8 to engage a peripheral edge of the mounting opening 30 for permitting the panel-side bracket 2 to be fixed to the trim 4. Disposed on leading ends, facing the mounting rotational direction, of the hook portions 8, respectively, are resilient catch-up blades 15 each of which is sloped in a direction to be separate away from the base plate 5 toward an upstream of the mounting rotational direction.
