Abstract

PURPOSE:To project a side deflector backward only when it is needed and secure the visual field of a rear window when it is not needed by providing a side deflector movably in the longitudinal direction between the stored position of a rear pillar and the backward projecting position. CONSTITUTION:A side deflector 7 is for smoothing the air flow on the side surface at the time of high-speed running so as to suppress the generation of vortex and reducing the pressure resistance, and is stored approximately within the width of a rear pillar 6 when the side deflector is not needed due to the low-speed running. Accordingly, there is no possibility of the side deflector 7 limiting the right and left visual field of a rear window 5. At the time of high-speed running, the side deflector 7 is used being projected backward from the rear pillar 6 through a parallel link mechanism 8 by pulling the inner wire 17 of a push-pull cable 16.
