Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a body structure for mounting a rear combination lamp arranged vertically on a pillar in a so-called one-box car or wagon car or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a vehicle of this type, a rear combination lamp 1 is arranged along a vertical direction of a pillar at a rear end of a body as shown in FIG. FIG. 6 shows an example of a body structure around the lamp mounting portion 20 of the rear combination lamp 1.

In this example, the pillar 10 is the outer panel 1
1 and an inner panel 12, a first panel member 13 forming a lamp mounting portion 20, a second panel member 14 interposed between the outer panel 11 and the inner panel 12, a first panel member 13 and the outer panel 3rd panel material 15 which joins 11 and 2nd panel material 14
And

FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along line AA of FIG.
Shows a sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG. As can be seen from FIG. 7, there is a step between the first panel member 13 and the second panel member 14. The third panel member 15 is provided so as to fill the step.

[0005]

In the conventional structure, the third panel member 15 is provided so as to cover a step between the first panel member 13 and the second panel member 14 as described above. I have. That is, the pillar 10 has a considerably large cross section below the lamp mounting portion 20, but has an extremely small cross section at the lamp mounting portion 20. As described above, since the cross-sectional area of the pillar 10 changes rapidly,
The predetermined strength and rigidity cannot be easily secured. In this example, the number of parts around the lamp mounting part 20 is large.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the foregoing, it is an object of the present invention to provide a rear combination lamp mounting body structure which ensures high rigidity with a simple configuration.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A mounting body structure for a rear combination lamp according to the present invention is a body structure for mounting a rear combination lamp arranged up and down along a pillar, and forms a lamp mounting portion. A first panel member, a second panel member interposed between the outer panel and the inner panel constituting the pillar, and a projecting portion having a convex cross-section along an inner portion of the first panel member. It is characterized by having been provided. Further, in the mounting body structure of the rear combination lamp according to the present invention, the second panel material is joined to the first panel material so that a vertical parting is formed at the top of the overhang portion. And Further, in the mounting body structure of the rear combination lamp of the present invention, the first panel material and the second panel material are joined without any step in the vertical direction.

According to the present invention, an overhang having a convex cross section is provided along the inner side of the first panel member forming the lamp mounting portion. Then, since the first panel material and the second panel material are joined without any step in the vertical direction, it is possible to eliminate sudden changes in the cross section and to secure high strength and rigidity. Further, the joint structure of the lamp mounting portion is constituted by two parts of the first panel material and the second panel material, and the structure is simplified.

[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, members which are substantially the same as or correspond to those of the prior art are denoted by the same reference numerals, and a preferred structure of a mounting portion body structure for a rear combination lamp according to the present invention will be described. An embodiment will be described. In addition,
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a main part showing an example of a body structure around a rear combination lamp mounting portion according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 (A) to 4 (C) are cross-sectional structures at a plurality of positions along the vertical direction of the pillar according to the embodiment of the present invention. It is sectional drawing which follows the -C line, the BB line, and the DD line. In this example, it is assumed that the rear combination lamp 1 is arranged along the vertical direction of the pillar 10 at the rear end of the body as already shown in FIG.

FIG. 1 shows an example of a body structure around a lamp mounting portion 20 of a rear combination lamp 1 in this embodiment. The pillar 10 is an outer panel 11
And a first panel member 13 which is formed by the inner panel 12 and forms the lamp mounting portion 20;
1 and a second panel member 14 interposed between the inner panel 12 and the inner panel 12.

In the present invention, the first panel material 13
A protruding portion 16 having a convex cross section is provided along an inside portion (the inside in the vehicle width direction). The overhang portion 16 extends vertically along the side of the lamp mounting portion 20, and
In FIG. 4B, the second panel member 14 is joined to the first panel member 13 such that a partition 17 is formed at the top in the vertical direction. The parting-off 17 is formed in the vertical (up-down) direction as can be seen from FIG.

As shown in FIG. 2, the first panel member 13 and the second panel member 14 are joined without any step in the vertical direction. These along the overhang 16 as shown,
It is joined without any steps in the vertical direction, and the cross section changes smoothly.

As described above, in this embodiment, the overhanging portion 1 having a convex cross section is provided along the inner side of the lamp mounting portion 20.
6, a first panel material 13 and a second panel material 14
However, a high strength and rigidity of the lamp mounting portion 20 can be secured by adopting a cross-sectional configuration in which the lamp mounting portion 20 is smoothly joined without any step in the vertical direction.

Incidentally, conventionally, the first panel material 13
As shown by the dotted line in FIG. 4 (B), the lamp mounting portion 20 is extremely small and thin because it is formed without providing a protruding portion such as the overhanging portion 16. On the other hand, in the present invention, the rigidity is remarkably enhanced by providing the overhang portion 16. In this case, the first panel material 13
And the second panel member 14 as a two-part
And the structure is simplified.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention, high lateral rigidity and longitudinal rigidity can be ensured by smoothly passing the cross section up and down in this type of rear-combination lamp mounting body structure. Can be significantly enhanced and improved. In addition, by passing the parting of the panel material from the horizontal direction to the vertical direction, the structure can be simplified by being able to cope with the two-part configuration, and the leakage prevention measures by reducing the sealer application range or area. It has advantages such as realizing an advantageous structure.
