Description

  The present invention provides an impact absorbing portion that is provided on the outer side of the vehicle in the vehicle and absorbs an impact, and a protection region that is formed in the vehicle inner side of the impact absorbing portion and is protected from a light collision by the impact absorbing portion. And an auxiliary equipment mounting structure for an automobile provided with the above.

Generally, a vehicle is provided with an impact absorbing portion, and the impact absorbing portion is configured to absorb a collision load at the time of a light collision.
The problem of the conventional structure will be described by exemplifying a crash can provided at the front part of the front side frame as the shock absorbing part.

  As shown in FIG. 6, a crash can 84 as an impact absorbing portion is attached to the front portion of the front side frame 81 via a set plate 82 and a mounting plate 83. On the other hand, an engine and an engine auxiliary machine are provided in the engine room, and the glow control unit (auxiliary machine) must be laid out in a place other than the engine room.

Here, the glow control unit is an auxiliary device for controlling the electric current to the glow plug attached to the wall of the sub chamber of the diesel engine. This is a start assisting device that is energized by a battery and is red hot, and at the start, the fuel injected from the combustion nozzle to the heating part of the plug is semi-burned to facilitate the start.
In some cases, it is required to lay out a capacitor as a power storage device in combination with the above-described glow control unit.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, a capacitor 85 having a function as an auxiliary machine support portion is cantilevered on the outer side in the front vehicle width direction of the front side frame 81, and a pair of upper and lower parts is supported on the capacitor 85. Glow control unit 88 is supported through brackets 86 and 87.
The area until the above-mentioned crash can 84 is crushed at the time of a light collision is defined as a dangerous area (barrier entry area) β, and the area behind the vehicle is protected from a light collision by the crash can 84 (safety) When the area (α) is set, the above-described glow control unit 88 is disposed at a portion close to the boundary line L between the two regions α and β.

  However, in this conventional structure, there is a problem that the glow control unit 88 that is an auxiliary machine protrudes forward from the protection region α as shown by a virtual line in FIG.

That is, a capacitor 85 having a relatively large mass is cantilevered by the front side frame 81, and the lower portion of the capacitor 85 is tilted forward of the vehicle due to inertia during a light collision, and a glow control unit 88 is attached to the capacitor 85. By attaching, the center of gravity moves to the cantilevered free end side of the capacitor 85, the capacitor 85 is further tilted by the inertia at the time of a light collision, and the glow control unit 88 is damaged.
For this reason, conventionally, it has been required to reduce the collision load on an auxiliary machine such as a glow control unit and to layout the auxiliary machine in a compact manner.

  By the way, Patent Document 1 discloses a mounting structure for an in-vehicle device in which an auxiliary machine such as a power control device is swung backward in the event of a vehicle collision. In this way, even if an auxiliary machine is supported so as to be able to move backward with a predetermined load at the time of a collision, a load including a predetermined load and an inertial force is added to the auxiliary machine, so that damage to the auxiliary machine is avoided. There was room for improvement.

With the member 34 as a fulcrum, the vehicle once swings forward of the vehicle, and the cover member 32 below the glow control unit 30 collides with the collision object, and then the glow control unit 30 moves toward the rear of the vehicle with the mounting member 34 as a fulcrum. It swings, the rear claw portion 29g is broken, the load is absorbed, and it moves to the accessory retreat space S1.

  Thus, once the glow control unit 30 swings forward of the vehicle, the inertial force can be reduced, and the amount of inertial force that the glow control unit 30 freely swings needs to be handled by the capacitor 20. Thus, the inertial mass of the capacitor 20 is reduced, thereby reducing the collision load of the glow control unit 30, and the glow control unit 30 is configured to be compactly laid out in a limited space.

The above-described pair of front and rear claw portions 29f and 29g are used to position the glow control unit 30 during normal travel. At the time of a light collision, the front claw portion 29f of the pair of claw portions 29f and 29g first absorbs the load first. By doing so, the cushioning performance of the glow control unit 30 is improved, and when the glow control unit 30 is retracted and moved backward, the rear claw portion 29g is damaged, and the cushioning performance is further improved. doing.

  That is, when the above-mentioned glow control unit 30 vigorously swings in the front direction of the vehicle and the rear side direction of the vehicle at the time of a light collision, the glow control unit 30 is damaged, but the claw portion 29f as the load absorbing portion temporarily The glow control unit 30 is freely swung after being damaged and absorbing the load. When the glow control unit 30 is swung backward, the claw portion 29g is broken to further absorb the load. It is possible to suppress the damage.

As shown in FIG. 4, in this embodiment, the rear claw portion 29g is formed wider than the front claw portion 29f in the front-rear direction so that a large impact load is absorbed by the claw portion 29g. It is composed. Further, by forming the front claw portion 29f narrow in the front-rear direction with respect to the rear claw portion 29g, the initial movement of free swinging by the inertia force of the glow control unit 30 is easily performed. doing.
As a load absorbing portion that also serves as an auxiliary machine positioning, instead of the pair of claw portions 29f and 29g, a fastening force of the mounting member 34 is used, and the swinging energy is absorbed when the glow control unit 30 swings. A structure may be adopted.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a connector 30b and a cover member 32 for protecting the connector 30b are provided at the lower end portion as a free end portion of the glow control unit 30. In order to prevent raindrops from entering the cover member 32, a structure is adopted in which the lower portion thereof is slightly expanded in a skirt shape and opened downward.

By providing a drip-proof and dust-proof cover member 32 at the free end of the glow control unit 30 described above, the cover member 32 at the free end of the glow control unit 30 abuts against the collision object during a light collision. The member 32 is irrelevant to the electric circuit, and there is no problem even if it is broken. Thus, the member 32 is configured to protect the glow control unit 30 as an auxiliary machine.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the auxiliary machine support portion is composed of a capacitor 20 (power storage device) as another auxiliary machine, and thereby the auxiliary machine evacuation space S <b> 1 is made up of the auxiliary machines (that is, The glow control unit 30 and the capacitor 20) are effectively used as a heat insulation space or a vibration isolation space.
