Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-1003

  However, according to the above prior art, when the guard bar moves in the vehicle front-rear direction due to the curvature of the vehicle door at the time of a side collision, the shift of the shock absorbing pad due to the pulling of the guard bar is not considered.

  An object of the present invention is to obtain an impact absorbing pad mounting structure that can suppress the displacement of the impact absorbing pad due to the movement of the upper reinforcing member or the lower reinforcing member at the time of a side collision.

  The invention according to claim 1 is a mounting structure of an impact absorbing pad that is mounted between an upper reinforcing member and a lower reinforcing member disposed inside a vehicle door, wherein the lower portion of the impact absorbing pad is the lower reinforcing member. A fixing member is connected to the upper reinforcing member, and a first clamping part that clamps the fixing member from the outside in the vehicle width direction, and the first clamping part and the vehicle front-rear direction. And a second sandwiching portion that is sandwiched from the inside in the vehicle width direction, and the fixing member is provided between the front end and the rear end of the first sandwiching portion or the second sandwiching portion with the front end disposed forward. A rear end is disposed between the front end and the rear end of the first sandwiching portion or the second sandwiching portion disposed rearward.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to the first aspect, the lower portion of the shock absorbing pad and the lower reinforcing member are connected so as to be rotatable around an axis parallel to the vehicle width direction. The first sandwiching portion or the second sandwiching portion is provided with a rib facing either one of the front end and the rear end of the fixing member.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to the first or second aspect, the upper reinforcing member and the lower reinforcing member are a beam or a reinforcement.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to any one of the first to third aspects, a lower bracket is joined to the lower reinforcing member, and the shock absorbing pad is attached to the lower bracket. It is connected with a fastener.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, the first sandwiching portion is disposed on the vehicle front side with respect to the second sandwiching portion. It is characterized by.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, the lower part of the shock absorbing pad is connected to the lower reinforcing member. Further, the fixing member connected to the upper reinforcing member is sandwiched from the outside in the vehicle width direction by the first sandwiching portion at the upper portion of the shock absorbing pad, and the second sandwiching portion having a position different from the first sandwiching portion in the vehicle front-rear direction. Thus, the impact absorbing pad is held between the upper reinforcing member and the lower reinforcing member by being sandwiched from the inside in the vehicle width direction.

  The fixing member includes a front end of a first sandwiching portion or a second sandwiching portion whose rear end is disposed rearward between a front end and a rear end of a first sandwiching portion or a second sandwiching portion whose front end is disposed forward. Is arranged so as to be positioned between the rear end and the fixing member, the first sandwiching portion, and the second sandwiching portion overlap each other in the vehicle width direction. Accordingly, the fixing member can easily move between the first sandwiching portion and the second sandwiching portion, and the impact absorbing pad and the fixing member can be relatively moved in the vehicle front-rear direction. For this reason, when the upper reinforcing member moves in the vehicle longitudinal direction at the time of a side collision, the impact absorbing pad is less likely to be affected by the movement of the upper reinforcing member, and the impact absorbing pad is likely to remain in the original position. In addition, since the first sandwiching portion and the second sandwiching portion have different positions in the vehicle front-rear direction, and the area where the fixing member, the first sandwiching portion, and the second sandwiching portion overlap in the vehicle width direction is small, the sliding resistance of the fixing member is small. There are few, and a fixed member moves easily.

  Further, when the upper reinforcing member moves largely in the vehicle front-rear direction, the contact (pinching) of the fixing member by the first sandwiching portion and the second sandwiching portion is released. For this reason, it is suppressed that the shock absorbing pad moves by being dragged by the movement of the upper reinforcing member in the vehicle front-rear direction, and the shock absorbing pad can be held in the original position. In addition, the lower part of the shock absorbing pad is connected to the lower reinforcing member, and the fixing member is sandwiched from the vehicle width direction by the first sandwiching part and the second sandwiching part on the upper part of the shock absorbing pad. The fall in the vehicle width direction can be suppressed.

Can be rotated in the vehicle longitudinal direction. In addition, the first sandwiching portion or the second sandwiching portion is provided with a rib that faces either the front end or the rear end of the fixing member.

  For example, when the first sandwiching portion or the second sandwiching portion is provided with a rib facing the rear end of the fixing member, when the upper reinforcing member moves forward of the vehicle with respect to the lower reinforcing member, the shock absorbing pad is While being held by the lower reinforcing member, the fixing member slides between the first sandwiching portion and the second sandwiching portion, and the upper reinforcing member moves forward of the vehicle. For this reason, the shock absorbing pad tends to stay in the original position. Further, when the lower reinforcing member moves forward of the vehicle relative to the upper reinforcing member, the shock absorbing pad is connected to the lower reinforcing member, and therefore tries to move forward of the vehicle, but the first sandwiching portion or the second sandwiching portion. The movement of the front of the vehicle is restricted by the rib provided on the vehicle abutting against the rear end of the fixing member. For this reason, the shock absorbing pad tends to stay at the original position while rotating.

  On the other hand, when the rib which opposes the front end of a fixing member is provided in the 1st clamping part or the 2nd clamping part, it becomes reverse to said motion. For this reason, it is possible to suppress the movement of the shock absorbing pad due to the upper reinforcing member or the lower reinforcing member being pulled in the vehicle front-rear direction.

  According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the upper reinforcing member and the lower reinforcing member are beams or reinforcements, the movement of the shock absorbing pad due to the pulling of the beams or reinforcements in the vehicle front-rear direction at the time of a side collision is suppressed. be able to.

  According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, since the lower bracket is connected to the lower reinforcing member and the shock absorbing pad is connected to the lower bracket by the fastener, workability when attaching the shock absorbing pad is good.

  According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, the first sandwiching portion on the outer side in the vehicle width direction is disposed on the vehicle front side with respect to the second sandwiching portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction. It is possible to visually check whether or not the fixing member is properly sandwiched between the sandwiched portion, and the workability during mounting is good.

  As described above, the shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to claim 1 can suppress the movement of the shock absorbing pad by being dragged by the movement of the upper reinforcing member in the vehicle longitudinal direction. Further, the impact absorbing pad can be prevented from falling in the vehicle width direction.

  The shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to the second aspect of the present invention suppresses the movement of the shock absorbing pad by being dragged by the movement of the upper reinforcing member or the lower reinforcing member due to the relative movement of the upper reinforcing member and the lower reinforcing member. can do.

  The shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to the third aspect of the present invention can suppress the movement of the shock absorbing pad by being dragged by the movement of the beam or the reinforcement in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

  The shock absorbing pad mounting structure according to the fourth aspect of the present invention has a good workability during mounting because the shock absorbing pad is connected to the lower bracket by a fastener.

The shock absorbing pad 40 is made of an elastic body such as foamed resin and has a function of absorbing or transmitting energy at the time of a side collision. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, a notch 40A is formed on the lower side of the shock absorbing pad 40 on the outer side in the vehicle width direction, and the outer side in the vehicle width direction of the notch 40A contacts the plate-like piece 52B. It is a contact surface that comes into contact.

  A circular recess 40B is formed on the vehicle front side of the position where the notch 40A of the shock absorbing pad 40 is provided, and a circular opening 40B is formed in the recess 40B substantially in parallel with the vehicle width direction. A hole 42 is provided. The shock absorbing pad 40 is rotatably connected to the lower beam bracket 52 by inserting a bolt 54 through the opening 42 and screwing a nut 55. That is, the shock absorbing pad 40 is configured to rotate in the vehicle front-rear direction about the shaft portion 54A of the bolt 54 inserted through the opening 42 (see FIG. 4).

  As shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 5 and FIG. 7, on the upper part of the shock absorbing pad 40, a first sandwiching portion 44 that sandwiches the plate-like piece 50 </ b> B of the upper beam bracket 50 from the outside in the vehicle width direction, and the upper beam bracket A second sandwiching portion 46 that sandwiches the 50 plate-like pieces 50B from the inside in the vehicle width direction is provided. The positions of the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 are different from each other in the vehicle front-rear direction, and the first sandwiching portion 44 is disposed forward and the second sandwiching portion 46 is disposed rearward. Further, the plate-like piece 50 </ b> B is disposed such that the front end is located between the front end and the rear end of the first sandwiching portion 44 and the rear end is located between the front end and the rear end of the second sandwiching portion 46. Moreover, the surface where the 1st clamping part 44 and the 2nd clamping part 46 oppose is an inclined surface which a space | interval expands as it goes upwards.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 7, a rib 46 </ b> A facing the rear end of the plate-like piece 50 </ b> B is provided at the rear end portion of the second sandwiching portion 46.

  Then, the upper part of the shock absorbing pad 40 is fixed (held) to the upper beam bracket 50 by sandwiching the front side and the rear side of the plate-like piece 50B so as to contact the first sandwiching part 44 and the second sandwiching part 46. Has been. By providing the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 at different positions in the vehicle front-rear direction, the area where the plate-like piece 50B abuts on the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 is reduced. Has been. At this time, since the plate-like piece 50B comes into contact with both the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46, there is little backlash and the mounting state is stabilized.

  As shown in FIG. 4, two ribs 47 and 48 are provided in the vehicle front-rear direction at the lower portion of the shock absorbing pad 40, and these ribs 47 and 48 are curved portions of the lower beam bracket 52. It is in contact with the outside of 52A. By providing the rib 47 on the front side, resistance to the forward rotation of the shock absorbing pad 40 is given. Further, by providing the rib 48 on the rear side, resistance to the rearward rotation of the shock absorbing pad 40 is given.

  Next, the operation and effect of this embodiment will be described.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the upper portion of the shock absorbing pad 40 is fixed by the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 sandwiching the plate-like piece 50 </ b> B of the upper beam bracket 50. The impact absorbing pad 40 and the plate-like piece 50B can be relatively moved in the vehicle front-rear direction.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 8, when the upper beam 20 moves forward of the vehicle (in the direction of arrow A) with respect to the lower beam 22, the shock absorbing pad 40 is held by the lower beam 22 via the lower beam bracket 52. The plate-like piece 50 </ b> B of the beam bracket 50 slides between the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46. For this reason, it is difficult to be influenced by the movement of the upper beam 20, and the shock absorbing pad 40 is likely to remain at the original position. At that time, the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 have different positions in the vehicle front-rear direction, and the area where the plate-like piece 50B contacts the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 is small. The sliding resistance of the piece 50B is small, and the plate-like piece 50B is easy to slide.

  When the upper beam 20 further moves forward (in the direction of arrow A), the plate-like piece 50B passes between the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46, and the plate by the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46 is obtained. The pinching of the shaped piece 50B is released. For this reason, the impact absorbing pad 40 is restrained from moving forward by being dragged by the forward movement of the upper beam 20, and the impact absorbing pad 40 can be held in its original position.

  As shown in FIG. 9, when the lower beam 22 moves forward of the vehicle (in the direction of arrow B) with respect to the upper beam 20, the shock absorbing pad 40 is connected to the lower beam 22 via the lower beam bracket 52. However, when the rib 46A of the shock absorbing pad 40 comes into contact with the plate-like piece 50B of the upper beam bracket 50, the forward movement of the vehicle is restricted. As a result, the shock absorbing pad 40 remains in its original position while rotating in the direction of arrow C around the shaft portion 54A (see FIG. 3) of the bolt 54.

  Therefore, in the mounting structure of the shock absorbing pad 40 of this embodiment, it is possible to suppress the shock absorbing pad 40 from moving in the vehicle longitudinal direction in conjunction with the movement of the upper beam 20 or the lower beam 22 in the vehicle longitudinal direction.

  Further, since the first sandwiching portion 44 is disposed on the vehicle front side with respect to the second sandwiching portion 46, is the plate-like piece 50B properly sandwiched between the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46? The workability at the time of mounting the shock absorbing pad 40 is good.

  In the mounting structure of the shock absorbing pad 40, the shock absorbing pad 40 is connected to the lower beam 22 via the lower beam bracket 52, and the plate-like piece 50B of the upper beam bracket 50 joined to the upper beam 20 is Since the impact absorbing pad 40 is fixed by being sandwiched between the first sandwiching portion 44 and the second sandwiching portion 46, the impact absorbing pad 40 can be prevented from falling in the vehicle width direction. For this reason, there is no problem that the shock absorbing pad 40 and the rear glass 19 interfere with each other when the rear glass 19 (see FIG. 2) of the rear side door 18 is opened due to the falling of the shock absorbing pad 40 in the vehicle width direction.

  On the other hand, in the shock absorbing pad mounting structure of the comparative example, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the curved portion 102A of the lower beam bracket 102 is joined to the lower beam 22, and the plate-like piece 102B of the lower beam bracket 102 is joined. The notch 101 at the lower part of the shock absorbing pad 100 is brought into contact, and the notch 101 and the plate-like piece 102B are connected by a bolt 104 and a nut 106. Then, a side portion 100 </ b> A that protrudes outward in the width direction above the impact absorbing pad 100 is attached to the door outer panel 32 of the rear side door 18 with a double-sided tape 108.

  In this structure, the shock absorbing pad 100 may be peeled off from the double-sided tape 108 due to vibration or the like when the vehicle is used, and may fall to the inner side in the vehicle width direction, and may interfere with the shock absorbing pad 100 when the rear glass of the rear side door 18 is opened. is there. Further, when water enters the rear side door 18, the adhesive force of the double-sided tape 108 is reduced, and the impact absorbing pad 100 is easily peeled off.

  On the other hand, in the mounting structure of the shock absorbing pad 40 of this embodiment, the shock absorbing pad 40 can be mounted inside the rear side door 18 with a simple configuration without using a double-sided tape or a clip.
