BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle door structure, and more particularly, to a vehicle door structure suitable for a door of a hardtop vehicle or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, door structures shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 are known as door structures used in a vehicle C such as a hard-top vehicle as shown in FIG. This door structure is door 3
A door inner reinforce 33 and a door outer reinforce 34 are arranged between the door inner panel 31 and the door outer panel 32 of 0A. 35 is supported so as to be able to move up and down. The door inner panel 31 is connected to the door outer panel 32 while covering the rear end of the door 30A with the rear end of the door inner panel 31 formed in a predetermined shape.

Further, a window glass 35 of the door 30A is provided.
When the vehicle is fully closed, the rear end of the window glass 35 is fitted on the rear end side of the door 30A in order to prevent the window glass 35 from vibrating due to the reaction force from the body of the vehicle C, the roof weather strip, or the like. The corresponding stabilizer 36 is attached to the door outer reinforcement 34. The stabilizer 36 is also for protecting the occupant in the event of a side collision with the vehicle C.

The stabilizer 36 has a support piece 37 having a substantially U-shaped cross section and a piece 37a protruding laterally, and a rear end of the window glass 35 attached to the U-shaped inner peripheral portion of the support piece 37. And a packing 38 which is formed of an elastic body having a U-shaped cross section and which is fitted in a close contact state.

As shown in FIG. 8, a screwdriver 40 or the like is inserted from a work hole 39 provided in the door inner panel 31 to the stabilizer 36 so that one piece 37a of a support piece 37 is attached to a side wall portion of the door outer reinforcement 34, as shown in FIG. Bolt 4
It is incorporated in the door 30 by stopping at 3. In FIG. 7, reference numeral 31a denotes a cutout for the stabilizer 36 provided on the door inner panel 31, reference numeral 41 denotes a door weather strip, and reference numeral 42 denotes a door trim.

[0006]

However, the above-mentioned conventional door structure has the following problems. That is, in the case of the conventional door structure, since the door inner panel 31 needs the cutout portion 31a and the work hole 39, the rigidity of the door 30 itself deteriorates accordingly.

In addition, the stabilizer 36 is formed separately,
A bolt 43 is attached to the side wall of the door outer reinforcement 34.
Therefore, it is difficult to complete the mounting accuracy of the stabilizer 36. Further, from the necessity of securing a mounting space for the stabilizer 36, the positions of the spot welding points of the door inner panel 31 and the door inner reinforce 33, and the door inner reinforce 33 and the door outer reinforce 34 must be located below the door 30A. In other words, the yield at the time of manufacturing the door inner reinforcement 33 and the door outer reinforcement 34 is reduced.

In view of the above points, the present invention improves the structure, improves the rigidity of the door and the mounting accuracy of the stabilizer, improves the production yield of the door inner reinforce and the door outer reinforce, and further reduces the number of components. It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle door structure capable of reducing costs due to the above.

[0009]

It was done .

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the shape of the stabilizer at the rear end of the door outer reinforcement is such that the upper side has a narrow width and the lower side has a wide width.

[0011]

The operation of the present invention will be described below.
According to the vehicle door structure of the first aspect, the rear end portion of the door outer reinforcement in the vehicle door provided with the windowpane capable of opening and closing is a stabilizer shape that defines a recess in which the rear end portion of the windowpane fits. As a result, the door outer reinforcement and the stabilizer are integrated, which eliminates the need to incorporate a separately formed stabilizer as in the conventional example, eliminates the need for a work hole, etc., and improves the rigidity of the door. At the same time, the mounting accuracy of the stabilizer is improved. Further, since it is not necessary to separately form a stabilizer and a bolt is not required, the cost can be reduced by reducing the number of components.

According to the vehicle door structure of the second aspect,
Since the stabilizer shape at the rear end of the door outer reinforcement is shaped such that the upper side has a narrow width and the lower side has a wide recess, the door outer reinforcement is arranged on the upper side of the door, and a spot is formed on the wide portion in the stabilizer shape. By setting the welding point, the production yield of the door inner reinforce and the door outer reinforce can be improved.
