2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, hard foamed plastic floor spacers such as expanded polystyrene have been increasingly used as a member capable of improving the habitability of automobiles and sharing a common platform. However, this is because the weight per unit volume is extremely light, moldability and moldability are excellent, and the cost per unit volume is low. On the other hand, shock absorbers for shocks generated inside and outside automobiles, such as energy absorbers placed inside doors, have the characteristic of being less likely to increase in stress even if the amount of strain that deforms under impact increases Many urethanes are used. Further, for the purpose of further improving the collision safety of an automobile, it is required to add a shock absorbing performance to a member which gives a load to an occupant at the time of a collision, by improving a vehicle body structure.

The contact area of the floor spacer according to the present invention with the floor surface is determined by the required compressive strength and the density of the hard foam plastic, and the compressive stress and compression of the hard foam plastic as shown in FIG. It can be determined by a simple calculation from the value of the compressive stress obtained from the diagram showing the relationship of strain.
For example, the required 10% compressive strength is 0.15 MPa
Then, the density of the rigid foam plastic is set to 33 kg / m 3 . In this case, since the value of 10% compressive strength at a density of 33 kg / m 3 is 0.30 MPa from FIG. 1,
The required contact area is 0.15 / 0.30 × 100 = 50
%. The contact area of the floor spacer according to the present invention is thus determined. The contact area with the floor when actually laid is 10% in order to achieve both shock absorption performance and light weight.
It is set to 60% or less. If the contact area is less than 10%, the density of the required hard foamed plastic is high, and the impact absorption performance may be satisfied, but the lightness may not be satisfied, and if it exceeds 60%, the lightness may be satisfied but compression The strength is low, and the desired shock absorbing performance may not be exhibited.

The density of the rigid foamed plastic used in the present invention is the density showing the compressive strength that can withstand the load applied to the floor spacer, for example, the relationship between the compressive stress and the compressive strain as shown in FIG. It can be easily determined by obtaining it from the figure. For example, the heel of a shoe (area 5
When a load of 30 kg is applied to × 3 = 15 cm 2 ),
Compressive strength required for floor spacers is 30/15 = 2k
g / cm 2 ≈0.2 MPa. Since the floor surface side of the floor spacer according to the present invention has a honeycomb structure, a slit structure or a protrusion structure, the necessary compressive strength is divided by the ratio of the contact area to the floor surface. For example, when the contact area is 60% and the load is 0.2 MPa as described above, the strength required for the floor spacer is 0.2 MPa.
It becomes a / 0.6 = 0.33 MPa.

It is easily deformed and can exhibit sufficient shock absorbing performance. Further, in the present invention, the thickness of the surface forming the indoor side is preferably 50% or less of the thickness of the floor spacer. The floor spacer of the present invention exhibits a high impact absorption performance by deforming the honeycomb, the slits, or the protrusions as shown in FIG. 7 when an impact is applied. Therefore, the thickness of the surface forming the indoor side is 50%. If it is below, the deformed portion is thick and the shock absorbing performance is high. In the present invention, the shape of the honeycomb or slit ribs or protrusions forming the floor surface side of the floor spacer is continuously or stepwise changed in the thickness direction of the spacer to physically change the compressive stress. It is also possible to exert higher impact absorption performance with.
