You.

As shown in FIG. 3, the console box 15 is attached so as to cover the engine room center member 20 and is arranged so as to protrude on a floor (not shown). The above-mentioned engine room center member 20
Is disposed above the engine room 21 and substantially at the center in the left-right direction of the vehicle body as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, and is disposed on the engine room center member 20 in the case of a four-wheel drive vehicle. A rear door opener 23 is mounted in place of the transfer lever 22 for switching two- and four-wheel drives used in the vehicle (see FIG. 5). Then, as shown in FIG.
4, the side brake lever 25 and the operation lever 26 of the rear door opener 23 are inserted through the insertion holes 18 and 19, respectively. However
Then, as shown in FIG.
The protrusion length of the operation lever 26 of the rear door opener 23 is
Side brake lever 2 from console box 15
5 is set shorter than the protrusion length.

As shown in FIG. 5, the rear door opener 23 has a support member 28 bent into a crank shape.
A support shaft 29 provided on the support member;
The operating lever 26 is attached so as to be rotatable around the center 9 and is constantly urged toward the return position by an urging means (not shown).
It is composed of The support member 28 is screwed onto the engine room center member 20, and one end of an operation wire 30 is connected to the operation lever 26. The other end of the operation wire 30 is connected to the rear body as shown in FIG. 31 is connected to a rear door unlocking mechanism 33 disposed on the center pinter 32. Thus,
The rear door opener 23 is disposed in the console box 15 and its operation lever 26 is connected to the insertion hole 19.
Through the outside of the console box 15. Therefore, by rotating the operation lever 26, the operation wire 30 is pulled and the lock of the rear door 11 is released.

4. The members common to the four-wheel drive specification vehicle are also used for the side brake lever 25 and the like. In the case of a four-wheel drive vehicle,
A transfer lever 22 for switching between two and four wheels is mounted on the engine room center member 20 and protrudes from the insertion hole 19 of the console box. The transfer lever 22 is operated to operate the transfer lever 22 via an operation wire 34 (not shown). The two- and four-wheel drive vehicle switching device is configured to be switched.

The rear door opener arrangement structure having the above configuration has the following advantages. That is, in a van-type vehicle having no specification of four-wheel drive (two-wheel drive van-type vehicle), the transfer lever 2 for switching between two- and four-wheel drives is used.
2 is not necessary, so the insertion hole 1 of the console box 15
9 will remain in an unused state. for that reason,
If the console box 15 for a four-wheel drive vehicle is used in a two-wheel drive van type vehicle, this insertion hole 19 can be used as an insertion hole for the operation lever 26 of the rear door opener 23. In addition, the engine room center member 20 can also be used as a mounting portion for the rear door opener 23. Therefore, the console box 1 for a four-wheel drive vehicle
5 and the engine room center member 20 can be shared by a two-wheel drive vehicle, so that only one kind of these members needs to be prepared, thereby reducing mold costs and facilitating parts management.

Further, since the operation lever 26 of the rear door opener 23 is disposed at the side of the driver's seat 13, that is, between the driver's seat 13 and the passenger's seat 14, the operation lever 26 is connected to other members as in the prior art. And the operation of the operation lever 26 is difficult to perform due to the small space of the arrangement portion of the rear door opener 23, and the operability is greatly improved (operational simplicity). Can be achieved.

As described above, one embodiment of the present invention has been described.
The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications and changes are possible based on the technical idea of the present invention. For example, the shape of the console box 15 and the insertion hole 19 for the operation lever 26 in the console box 15 are provided.
Can be arbitrarily changed as necessary.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, the operation lever of the rear door opener is inserted through the transfer lever insertion hole of the console box for a four-wheel drive vehicle disposed between the driver's seat and the passenger seat. As a result, members such as a console box for a four-wheel drive vehicle and an engine room center member can be shared by a two-wheel drive vehicle, thereby reducing mold costs and facilitating parts management. Moreover, since the operation lever of the rear door opener is disposed between the driver's seat and the passenger's seat, the operation lever may interfere with other members or operate the operation lever in a narrow space as in the related art.
