Description

  The present invention relates to a splash shield for blocking mud, pebbles, ice and snow, etc. scattered from a front wheel during traveling of a vehicle.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a splash shield is provided on the inside of a wheel house where a vehicle wheel is disposed in order to protect the vehicle body from mud, pebbles, ice and snow, etc. wound up by the wheel during traveling. In particular, the front part of the splash shield extends vertically and horizontally in the front part of the wheel house on the front wheel of the vehicle, and shields the front wheel (wheel house) from the front engine room (inside the front bumper). Is configured to do.

  By the way, depending on the parts layout requirement, a heat exchanger such as an oil cooler may be disposed in the engine room (in the front bumper) ahead of the front surface of the splash shield. In such a case, in order to maintain the cooling performance of the heat exchanger, a plurality of ventilation holes are provided in the front part of the splash shield to let the running air taken into the engine room (in the front bumper) escape to the rear. The In addition, since the front surface portion is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes, the rigidity is lowered and the surface surface is easily deformed.

Extending in between.

(2) It is preferable that the said division | segmentation bead is provided in each of the upper part and the lower part of the said front part. In this case, it is preferable that the continuous bead is provided in an intermediate part between the upper part and the lower part of the front part.
(3) It is preferable that the continuous bead has a curved shape such that a central portion protrudes forward from both left and right end portions.

(4) It is preferable that the continuous beads not penetrating the vent holes extend between the attachment portions.
(5) It is preferable that the front part has a triangular bead that is tapered toward the attachment part between the continuous bead and the attachment part.
(6) It is preferable that the vent hole is not penetrated in the outer half in the vehicle width direction at the upper portion of the front portion.

  According to the disclosed splash shield, a continuous bead extending continuously in the left-right direction is provided between the left and right end portions of the front portion, and the length in the front-rear direction of the continuous bead is longer than the length in the front-rear direction of the divided beads. Since it is formed and at least one continuous bead extends between the attachment portions, the rigidity of the front surface portion can be efficiently increased. Therefore, the rigidity of the front portion can be further increased with a simple configuration.

[2. Action and effect]
(1) According to the above-described splash shield 20, the continuous bead 3A that extends continuously in the left-right direction is provided between the left and right end portions 1a, 1b of the front surface portion 1, and the length of the continuous bead 3A in the front-rear direction is The split bead 3B is formed longer than the length in the front-rear direction, and at least one (uppermost in the present embodiment) continuous bead 3A extends between the attachment portions 6 and 7, so The rigidity can be increased efficiently and reliably. In particular, the continuous bead 3 </ b> A extending between the mounting portions 6 and 7 allows the front surface portion 1 to pass through the beam connecting the mounting portions 6 and 7, thereby improving the surface rigidity of the front surface portion 1. Can be made. In addition, the continuous beads 3A can reinforce the attachment portions 6 and 7 and improve the attachment rigidity.

  Thus, according to the splash shield 20 described above, the rigidity of the front surface portion 1 can be further enhanced with a simple configuration in which the continuous beads 3A are provided in addition to the divided beads 3B and the vertical beads 4. As a result, it is possible to suppress the front portion 1 from being deformed by the wind pressure of the traveling wind that has passed through the engine room 14, so that the generation of noise due to flapping of the front portion 1, splash due to contact with the front wheels 11, etc. A decrease in the durability of the shield 20 can be suppressed.

  Further, for example, even if scattered matter such as mud, pebbles, and snow that is rolled up by the front wheel 11 and enters the engine room 14 from the vent hole 2 above the continuous bead 3A, the continuous bead 3A However, since it is longer in the front-rear direction than the divided beads 3B, it is easy to collide with scattered objects (see broken line arrows in FIG. 3). For this reason, according to the continuous bead 3A, the scattered matter from the front wheel 11 can be received more appropriately, and the scattered matter is prevented from scattering (intruding) forward from the vent hole 2 to the front portion 1. be able to. Therefore, it can contribute to the protection of the member ahead of the splash shield 20. For example, it is possible to suppress the adhesion and collision of scattered matter to the oil cooler 15.

  (2) Since the continuous bead 3A is provided in the intermediate part 1M which is most easily deformed in the front face part 1, and the divided beads 3B are provided in the upper part 1U and the lower part 1L of the front face part 1 sandwiching the continuous bead 3A, the front part The deformation of the intermediate portion 1M of 1 can be reliably suppressed. Thereby, the rigidity of the front part 1 whole can be improved efficiently. As a result, since the deformation of the front surface portion 1 due to the wind pressure can be further appropriately suppressed, it is possible to more appropriately suppress the generation of abnormal noise due to the flapping of the front surface portion 1 and the deterioration of the durability of the splash shield 20. .

  (3) Since the continuous bead 3A has a curved shape such that the central portion protrudes forward from the left and right ends, the continuous bead 3A has a reaction force (elastic force) that opposes the wind pressure from the front. Can occur. Thereby, since the deformation of the continuous bead 3A is suppressed, the deformation of the front surface portion 1 can be more reliably suppressed, and the generation of abnormal noise and the deterioration of durability are further appropriately suppressed as described above. Can do.

  (4) Since the continuous bead 3A in which the ventilation hole 2 is not provided extends between the attachment portions 6 and 7 of the front surface portion 1, the continuous bead 3A makes the space between the attachment portions 6 and 7 stronger. It can connect and can improve the rigidity of front part 1 more certainly. Thereby, the deformation | transformation of the front-surface part 1 by a wind pressure can be suppressed more appropriately as mentioned above, and generation | occurrence | production of abnormal noise and a durable fall can be suppressed more appropriately.

  (5) Since the front surface portion 1 has the triangular bead 5 tapered toward the mounting portion 7 between the continuous bead 3A and the mounting portion 7, the mounting rigidity of the front surface portion 1 can be further increased. That is, since the triangular bead 5 functions like a support rod between the continuous bead 3A and the mounting portion 7 of the front surface portion 1, the triangular bead 5 has a rigidity between the continuous bead 3A and the mounting portion 7. Can be increased. Thereby, the deformation | transformation of the front-surface part 1 by a wind pressure can be suppressed more appropriately as mentioned above, and generation | occurrence | production of abnormal noise and a durable fall can be suppressed more appropriately.

  (6) Since the vent hole 2 is not penetrated in the vehicle width direction outer half of the upper part 1U of the front part 1, it is effective that scattered matter scatters ahead of the front part 1 through the vent hole 2. Can be suppressed. That is, the outer half in the vehicle width direction of the upper portion 1U of the front surface portion 1 is a portion where the scattered matter wound up by the front wheels 11 is more easily reached than the other portions, and thus the vent hole 2 is not provided in this portion. Thereby, the scattering of the scattered object to the front can be effectively suppressed, and it can contribute to the protection of the member ahead of the front surface portion 1. In particular, when the oil cooler 15 is installed in front of the front surface portion 1 as in the present embodiment, it is possible to suppress the scattered matter from adhering to and colliding with the oil cooler 15. Can be suppressed.

In addition, if the vent hole 2 is not provided in the continuous bead 3A, the rigidity of the continuous bead 3A can be further increased, so that the deformation of the front surface portion 1 can be more effectively suppressed. On the other hand, if the vent hole 2 is provided in the continuous bead 3A, the air permeability of the front face portion 1 can be further enhanced.
