特開2008−137591号公報JP 2008-137591 A

上記従来の構造によれば、車両が歩行者と衝突した時に吸気シュラウドが変形しにくく、歩行者保護の面で改善の余地があった。
また、吸気口から入り込んだごみや水などが吸気シュラウドの空気送出口に容易に到達して、ごみや水、雪などがエンジンに入り込む虞があった。
本発明は上記実状に鑑みて成されたもので、その目的は、エンジンが異物などを吸入することを回避しつつ効率よく吸気でき、かつ、衝突時に歩行者への影響を低減することができて歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる吸気シュラウド構造を提供する点にある。
According to the above conventional structure, the intake shroud is not easily deformed when the vehicle collides with a pedestrian, and there is room for improvement in terms of pedestrian protection.
In addition, there is a risk that dust, water, etc. entering from the intake port will easily reach the air outlet of the intake shroud and dust, water, snow, etc. will enter the engine.
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to be able to efficiently inhale while avoiding inhalation of foreign matter by the engine and to reduce the influence on pedestrians at the time of collision. It is in the point which provides the intake shroud structure which can improve pedestrian protection performance.

本発明の特徴は、
エンジンに吸気を案内して前記吸気を前記エンジンに取り込みやすくする吸気シュラウドの構造であって、
前記吸気シュラウドの上部に設けられた上側取り付け部と、下部に設けられた下側取り付け部とがそれぞれ車体側に取り付け固定されており、
前記吸気シュラウドは、車両前方側に向かって開口する吸気口を備えた下側空気流路と、
車両後方側に向かって開口する空気送出口を備えた上側空気流路と、
前記上側空気流路と下側空気流路を上下方向に連通させる連通口とを有し、
前記下側空気流路の車両後方側の端部に、エンジンルーム内に開口する排気口を有している点にある。(請求項1)
The features of the present invention are:
A structure of an intake shroud that guides intake air to the engine and facilitates intake of the intake air into the engine,
An upper mounting portion provided at the upper portion of the intake shroud and a lower mounting portion provided at the lower portion are fixedly attached to the vehicle body side, respectively.
The intake shroud includes a lower air flow path having an intake opening that opens toward the front side of the vehicle;
An upper air flow path having an air outlet opening toward the vehicle rear side;
A communication port for communicating the upper air flow path and the lower air flow path in the vertical direction;
The lower air flow path has an exhaust opening that opens into the engine room at the end of the lower air passage on the vehicle rear side. (Claim 1)

上記の構成により、前記吸気口からに下側空気流路に入り込んだ空気は下側空気流路を車両後方側に流れる。そして、所定量の空気が前記連通口を通って上側空気流路に入り込み、残りの空気が前記排気口からエンジンルーム内に排出される。上側空気流路に入り込んだ空気は、上側空気流路を車両後方側に流れ、エンジンへの給気口である前記空気送出口からエンジン側に送出される。
また、上記の構成によれば、前記下側空気流路の車両後方側の端部に、エンジンルーム内に開口する排気口を有しているから、吸気シュラウドの下部の強度を下げて、衝突時に前記下部を変形しやすくすることができる。これにより、被衝突体が歩行者であった場合、歩行者への危害を軽減することができる。
そして、車両前方側の吸気口と車両後方側の空気送出口とを上下方向に(正面視で重ならないように)ずらすことで、ごみや水、雪などがエンジンに入りにくくすることができる。また、ごみや水などが吸気口から下側空気流路に入り込んでも、これらを前記排気口からエンジンルーム内に積極的に排出して、ごみや水などが空気送出口に届きにくくすることができる。(請求項1)
With the above configuration, the air that has entered the lower air flow path from the intake port flows through the lower air flow path toward the vehicle rear side. Then, a predetermined amount of air enters the upper air flow path through the communication port, and the remaining air is discharged from the exhaust port into the engine room. The air that has entered the upper air flow path flows to the vehicle rear side through the upper air flow path, and is sent to the engine side from the air outlet that is an air supply port to the engine.
Further, according to the above configuration, since the lower air flow path has the exhaust opening that opens into the engine room at the vehicle rear side end portion, the strength of the lower portion of the intake shroud is reduced, and the collision occurs. Sometimes the lower part can be easily deformed. Thereby, when the collision object is a pedestrian, the harm to the pedestrian can be reduced.
By shifting the intake port on the vehicle front side and the air outlet on the vehicle rear side in the vertical direction (so as not to overlap in front view), it is possible to make it difficult for dust, water, snow, etc. to enter the engine. In addition, even if dust or water enters the lower air flow path from the intake port, it may be actively discharged from the exhaust port into the engine room, making it difficult for dust or water to reach the air delivery port. it can.

As shown in FIG. 6, the shroud body 7 includes a lower air flow path 9 having an intake port 8 that opens toward the vehicle front side Fr, and an air outlet 10 that opens toward the vehicle rear side Rr. The upper air flow path 11 and the communication port 12 that allows the upper air flow path 11 and the lower air flow path 9 to communicate with each other in the vertical direction.

さらに、下側空気流路9の後端部(車両後方側Rrの端部)に、エンジンルーム13内に開口する排気口14を有している。前記吸気口8・空気送出口10・連通口12・排気口14はいずれも長方形状である。   Further, an exhaust port 14 that opens into the engine room 13 is provided at the rear end portion (end portion of the vehicle rear side Rr) of the lower air flow path 9. The intake port 8, the air delivery port 10, the communication port 12, and the exhaust port 14 are all rectangular.

車両前後方向における前記上側空気流路11の全長は、下側空気流路9の全長よりも長く設定されている。詳しくは、上側空気流路11の前半部11A(上流側の流路部分)が、下側空気流路9全体の上側に位置するとともに、上側空気流路11の後半部11B(下流側の流路部分)が、下側空気流路9よりも車両後方側Rrに突出している。   The total length of the upper air flow path 11 in the vehicle front-rear direction is set longer than the total length of the lower air flow path 9. Specifically, the front half portion 11A (upstream flow passage portion) of the upper air flow passage 11 is positioned above the entire lower air flow passage 9, and the rear half portion 11B (downstream flow of the upper air flow passage 11). Road portion) protrudes from the lower air flow path 9 to the vehicle rear side Rr.

シュラウド本体7の幅方向(車幅方向)における上側空気流路11の幅と下側空気流路9の幅は略同一である。両流路9,11の左右の側部は、上下に一体に連なったシュラウド側壁15(以下、「側壁15」と称する)により形成されている。左右の側壁15の上下方向中間部間には、略水平の仕切り壁16が架設され、この仕切り壁16に前記連通口12が形成されている。   The width of the upper air flow path 11 and the width of the lower air flow path 9 in the width direction (vehicle width direction) of the shroud body 7 are substantially the same. The left and right side portions of both flow passages 9 and 11 are formed by shroud side walls 15 (hereinafter referred to as “side walls 15”) that are integrally connected vertically. A substantially horizontal partition wall 16 is installed between the vertical middle portions of the left and right side walls 15, and the communication port 12 is formed in the partition wall 16.

[下側空気流路9の構造]
図4,図6に示すように、下側空気流路9の下端部は、シュラウド本体7の第1下壁17により形成されている。第1下壁17の前端部17Aは、車両後方側Rrほど上方に位置するように少し後上がりに直線状に傾斜している。また、前端部17A以外の部分(中間部17B及び後端部17C)は、車両後方側Rrほど上方に位置するように上側に凸に突曲し、前記吸気口8の面積が排気口14の面積よりも大きくなっている。
[Structure of lower air flow path 9]
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, the lower end of the lower air flow path 9 is formed by a first lower wall 17 of the shroud body 7. The front end portion 17A of the first lower wall 17 is linearly inclined slightly rearward so as to be positioned higher toward the vehicle rear side Rr. Further, the portions other than the front end portion 17A (intermediate portion 17B and rear end portion 17C) are projected upward so as to be located upward as the vehicle rear side Rr, and the area of the intake port 8 is the exhaust port 14 area. It is larger than the area.

下側空気流路9の車両後方側Rrの上端部は、シュラウド本体7の第1上壁19により形成されている。第1上壁19は、前記仕切り壁16の後端部から車両後方側Rrに延びており、仕切り壁16よりも下方に位置する。第1上壁19の前端部19A(図6参照)は上方に屈曲している。そして、この前端部19Aが仕切り壁16の後端部に接続している。   The upper end portion of the lower air flow path 9 on the vehicle rear side Rr is formed by the first upper wall 19 of the shroud body 7. The first upper wall 19 extends from the rear end portion of the partition wall 16 to the vehicle rear side Rr, and is positioned below the partition wall 16. A front end portion 19A (see FIG. 6) of the first upper wall 19 is bent upward. The front end 19 </ b> A is connected to the rear end of the partition wall 16.

[上側空気流路11の構造]
図6に示すように、上側空気流路11の後半部11Bの下端部は、シュラウド本体7の第2下壁18により形成されている。第2下壁18は、車両後方側Rrほど上方に位置するように傾斜している。第2下壁18の前端部18Aは下方に屈曲しており、この前端部18Aが仕切り壁16の後端部に接続している。
[Structure of upper air flow path 11]
As shown in FIG. 6, the lower end portion of the rear half portion 11 </ b> B of the upper air flow path 11 is formed by the second lower wall 18 of the shroud body 7. The second lower wall 18 is inclined so as to be positioned higher toward the vehicle rear side Rr. The front end 18A of the second lower wall 18 is bent downward, and the front end 18A is connected to the rear end of the partition wall 16.

上側空気流路11の上端部は、シュラウド本体7の第2上壁21により形成されている。第2上壁21は、車両後方側Rrほど下方に位置するように傾斜している。前述のように、シュラウド本体7の第2下壁18が、車両後方側Rrほど上方に位置するように傾斜していることから、前記上側空気流路11の後半部11Bは、車両後方側Rrになるにつれて上下方向の長さが短くなっている。この上側空気流路11の後端部に、吸気ホース22(図3参照)の前端部が連通接続し、吸気ホース22の後端部がエンジンに連通接続している。   The upper end portion of the upper air flow path 11 is formed by the second upper wall 21 of the shroud body 7. The second upper wall 21 is inclined so as to be positioned downward as the vehicle rear side Rr. As described above, since the second lower wall 18 of the shroud main body 7 is inclined so as to be positioned upward as the vehicle rear side Rr, the rear half portion 11B of the upper air flow path 11 has a vehicle rear side Rr. As it becomes, the length in the vertical direction becomes shorter. A front end portion of the intake hose 22 (see FIG. 3) is connected to the rear end portion of the upper air flow path 11, and a rear end portion of the intake hose 22 is connected to the engine.

上側空気流路11の前端部は、車両後方側Rrほど上方に位置するように傾斜している。この前端部は前壁部材20により形成されている。そして、吸気シュラウド6の成形工程において型抜きできるように、前壁部材20が、シュラウド本体7の他の部分(前壁部材20以外の部分)とは別体の部材で成形されている。後述のように、前記前壁部材20は前記他の部分に溶着されている。溶着に換えて、両者を接着剤により接着することで接合する構造であってもよく、あるいは、両者を係合することで連結する構造であってもよい。   The front end portion of the upper air flow path 11 is inclined so as to be positioned higher toward the vehicle rear side Rr. The front end portion is formed by the front wall member 20. And the front wall member 20 is shape | molded by the member separate from the other part (parts other than the front wall member 20) of the shroud main body 7 so that it can mold-release in the formation process of the intake shroud 6. As will be described later, the front wall member 20 is welded to the other portion. Instead of welding, a structure in which both are bonded by an adhesive may be used, or a structure in which both are connected may be used.

本発明によれば、
(1) 図6に示すように、前記吸気口8からに下側空気流路9に入り込んだ空気は下側空気流路9を車両後方側Rrに流れる(図6の矢印A)。
そして、所定量の空気が前記連通口12を通って(図6の矢印B)上側空気流路11に入り込み、残りの空気が排気口14からエンジンルーム13内に排出される(図6の矢印D)。上側空気流路11に入り込んだ空気は、上側空気流路11を車両後方側Rrに流れ(図6の矢印C)、エンジンへの給気口である前記空気送出口10からエンジン側に送出される。
According to the present invention,
(1) As shown in FIG. 6, the air that has entered the lower air flow path 9 from the intake port 8 flows through the lower air flow path 9 to the vehicle rear side Rr (arrow A in FIG. 6).
Then, a predetermined amount of air enters the upper air flow path 11 through the communication port 12 (arrow B in FIG. 6), and the remaining air is discharged from the exhaust port 14 into the engine room 13 (arrow in FIG. 6). D). The air that has entered the upper air flow path 11 flows through the upper air flow path 11 to the vehicle rear side Rr (arrow C in FIG. 6), and is sent to the engine side from the air outlet 10 that is an air supply port to the engine. The

(2) 前記下側空気流路9の後端部に、エンジンルーム13内に開口する排気口14を有しているから、吸気シュラウド6の下部の強度を下げて、衝突時に前記下部を変形しやすくすることができる。これにより、被衝突体が歩行者であった場合、歩行者への危害を軽減することができる。 (2) Since the lower air flow path 9 has an exhaust port 14 that opens into the engine room 13 at the rear end, the strength of the lower portion of the intake shroud 6 is lowered, and the lower portion is deformed in the event of a collision. Can be easier. Thereby, when the collision object is a pedestrian, the harm to the pedestrian can be reduced.

(3) シュラウド本体7の側壁15に第1薄肉部25と第2薄肉部26が形成されているから、衝突時の衝撃力の入力によって、側壁15に割れもしくは変形が生じやすくなる。そして、側壁15に割れもしくは変形が生じた場合、吸気シュラウド6が車両後方側Rrに移動するため、歩行者への危害を軽減することができる。 (3) Since the first thin portion 25 and the second thin portion 26 are formed on the side wall 15 of the shroud main body 7, the side wall 15 is easily cracked or deformed by the input of impact force at the time of collision. And when the side wall 15 is cracked or deformed, the intake shroud 6 moves to the vehicle rear side Rr, so that the danger to pedestrians can be reduced.

(4) 前記上側取り付け部23とシュラウド本体7との間に前記上側切り欠き28が設けられ、前記下側取り付け部24とシュラウド本体7との間に前記下側切り欠き29が設けられているから、前記上側取り付け部23や下側取り付け部24が変形したりシュラウド本体7から分離したりして、シュラウド本体7が車両後方側Rrに移動することで、歩行者への危害を軽減することができる。 (4) The upper notch 28 is provided between the upper attachment portion 23 and the shroud body 7, and the lower notch 29 is provided between the lower attachment portion 24 and the shroud body 7. From the above, the upper mounting portion 23 and the lower mounting portion 24 are deformed or separated from the shroud main body 7, and the shroud main body 7 moves to the vehicle rear side Rr, thereby reducing the danger to pedestrians. Can do.

(5) 図10(a)〜図10(c)は、歩行者脚部インパクタ50を用いた車両衝突時の吸気シュラウド6の作動のシミュレーション図である。図10(a),図10(b)に示すように、車両の衝突時には、シュラウド本体7の上部が車両前方側Fr(矢印E方向)に回転するように変形する。これにより、荷重が下側取り付け部24の下面に伝わる。その後に、前記第1薄肉部25と第2薄肉部26が破断し、下側取り付け部24が破断することで、シュラウド本体7の下端部が車両後方側Rrに押し込まれる(矢印F)。そのために、歩行者脚部の膝部のせん断の障害値が改善する。 (5) FIGS. 10A to 10C are simulation diagrams of the operation of the intake shroud 6 during a vehicle collision using the pedestrian leg impactor 50. FIG. As shown in FIGS. 10A and 10B, when the vehicle collides, the upper portion of the shroud body 7 is deformed so as to rotate in the vehicle front side Fr (in the direction of arrow E). As a result, the load is transmitted to the lower surface of the lower attachment portion 24. Thereafter, the first thin portion 25 and the second thin portion 26 are broken, and the lower attachment portion 24 is broken, whereby the lower end portion of the shroud body 7 is pushed into the vehicle rear side Rr (arrow F). Therefore, the obstacle value of the knee of the pedestrian leg improves.

(6) 車両前方側Frの吸気口8と車両後方側Rrの空気送出口10とを上下方向に(正面視で重ならないように)ずらしてあるから、ごみや水、雪などがエンジンに入りにくくすることができる。また、ごみや水などが吸気口8から下側空気流路9に入り込んでも、これらを前記排気口14からエンジンルーム13内に積極的に排出して、ごみや水などが空気送出口10に届きにくくすることができる。 (6) Since the intake port 8 on the vehicle front side Fr and the air delivery port 10 on the vehicle rear side Rr are shifted in the vertical direction (so as not to overlap in front view), dust, water, snow, etc. enter the engine. Can be difficult. Further, even if dust or water enters the lower air flow path 9 from the intake port 8, these are positively discharged into the engine room 13 from the exhaust port 14, so that dust or water is discharged to the air outlet 10. It can be hard to reach.

(7) 前記第1下壁17の中間部17B及び後端部17Cが、車両後方側Rrほど上方に位置するように上側に凸に突曲して前記吸気口8の面積が排気口14の面積よりも大きくなっているから、下側空気流路9の連通口12付近での吸気流速を下げることができる。これにより、上側空気流路11の吸気効率を向上させることができる。 (7) The intermediate portion 17B and the rear end portion 17C of the first lower wall 17 protrude upwardly so that the vehicle rear side Rr is located upward, so that the area of the intake port 8 is that of the exhaust port 14. Since it is larger than the area, the intake air flow velocity in the vicinity of the communication port 12 of the lower air flow path 9 can be lowered. Thereby, the intake efficiency of the upper air flow path 11 can be improved.
