Description
本発明は、ブロー成形による車両用衝撃吸収体に関する。 The present invention relates to a shock absorber for vehicles by blow molding.
車両用衝撃吸収体としては特許文献１に示されるようなものがある。
しかし、該文献に示されるような「衝撃受け面側の端部から他端まで達する複数の凹溝」では、衝撃荷重により座屈崩壊するまでは加工硬化しながら一気に変形をするが、一旦座屈崩壊すると急激に反力が減少し衝撃エネルギーをそれ以上吸収できないため乗員への衝撃が大きいという欠点があった。 However, in the “plurality of grooves reaching from the end on the impact receiving surface side to the other end” as shown in this document, it is deformed all at once while being work hardened until it buckles and collapses due to the impact load. When bent and collapsed, the reaction force suddenly decreased, and the impact energy could not be absorbed any more.
解決しようとする課題は、衝撃受け面側の端部から他端まで達する複数の凹溝構造では、衝撃荷重により座屈崩壊するまでは加工硬化しながら一気に変形をするが、一旦座屈崩壊すると急激に反力が減少し衝撃エネルギーをそれ以上吸収できないため乗員への衝撃が大きいという点である。本発明は上記の点を解決するためになされた。 The problem to be solved is that a plurality of recessed groove structures reaching from the end on the impact receiving surface side to the other end are deformed all at once while being work hardened until the buckling collapses due to the impact load. The reaction force suddenly decreases and the impact energy cannot be absorbed any more, so the impact on the passenger is great. The present invention has been made to solve the above-described points.
本発明は、ブロー成形により成形され、車体に取付けられる衝撃吸収体であって、衝撃受け面と車体取り付け面を有し、該車体取り付け面から該衝撃受け面に連絡する両側面部には複数の衝撃受け面側凹部と、同じく複数の車体取り付け面側凹部が千鳥足状に互い違いに並進しながらジグザグ状リブを隔てて配置されており、
該ジグザグ状リブは内側が中空で、衝撃受け面にほぼ垂直な荷重に対して比較的低い剛性を有し、また
該衝撃受け面側凹部間と該車体取り付け面側凹部間には
内側が中空で衝撃受け面にほぼ垂直な荷重に対して該ジグザグ状リブよりも高い剛性を有した
平行リブをそれぞれ配置したことを最も主要な特徴とする。
The present invention is an impact absorber that is molded by blow molding and is attached to a vehicle body. The impact absorber has an impact receiving surface and a vehicle body mounting surface, and a plurality of side surfaces that communicate from the vehicle body mounting surface to the impact receiving surface The impact receiving surface side concave portion and the plurality of vehicle body mounting surface side concave portions are arranged with zigzag ribs while being alternately translated in a staggered manner,
The zigzag rib is hollow on the inside, has a relatively low rigidity against a load substantially perpendicular to the impact receiving surface, and between the impact receiving surface side recesses and the vehicle body mounting surface side recesses. Is
The main feature is that parallel ribs each having a hollow inner side and having rigidity higher than that of the zigzag rib with respect to a load substantially perpendicular to the impact receiving surface are arranged.
本発明によれば、衝突の初期衝撃を先ずやや剛性の低いジグザグ状リブの変形により緩衝し、次いで剛性の高い衝撃受け面側凹部と車体取り付け面側凹部のそれぞれの平行リブの変形により衝撃エネルギーの大部分を吸収する２段階式衝撃緩衝吸収効果により、乗員に過大な衝撃が加わることはないという利点がある。 According to the present invention, the initial impact of the collision is first buffered by the deformation of the zigzag ribs having a slightly low rigidity, and then the impact energy by the deformation of the parallel ribs of the high rigidity shock receiving surface side recess and the vehicle body mounting surface side recess. There is an advantage that an excessive shock is not applied to the occupant due to the two-stage shock absorbing effect that absorbs most of the vehicle.
車両衝突時の乗員への衝撃を緩衝するという目的を、複数の衝撃受け面側凹部と、同じく複数の車体取り付け面側凹部を千鳥足状に互い違いに並進しながらジグザグ状リブを隔てて配置させ、該衝撃受け面側凹部間と該車体取り付け面側凹部間には平行リブをそれぞれ配置して、衝突の初期衝撃を先ずやや剛性の低いジグザグ状リブの変形により緩衝し、次いで剛性の高い衝撃受け面側凹部と該車体取り付け面側凹部のそれぞれの平行リブの変形により衝撃エネルギーの大部分を吸収するという２段階式衝撃緩衝吸収効果をもつ衝撃吸収体として、ブロー成形という安価な工法を用いて経済性を損なわずに実現した。 For the purpose of buffering the impact on the occupant during a vehicle collision, a plurality of impact receiving surface side recesses and a plurality of vehicle body mounting surface side recesses are arranged in zigzag ribs while being alternately translated in a staggered manner, Parallel ribs are respectively arranged between the recesses on the impact receiving surface side and the recesses on the mounting surface side of the vehicle body, so that the initial impact of the collision is first buffered by the deformation of the zigzag ribs having a slightly lower rigidity, and then the impact receiver having a higher rigidity. As an impact absorber having a two-stage shock absorbing effect of absorbing most of the impact energy by deformation of the parallel ribs of the surface side recess and the body mounting surface side recess, using an inexpensive construction method called blow molding Realized without loss of economy.
図１，２，３により本発明の１実施例を説明する。図１は本発明にかかる衝撃吸収体１を切断した斜視図である。図２は該衝撃吸収体１を切断面方向から見たＢ視断面図である。図３は該衝撃吸収体１のＣ−Ｃ断面図である。 An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a shock absorber 1 according to the present invention cut. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the shock absorber 1 as seen from the cut surface direction. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the shock absorber 1 taken along the line CC.
該衝撃吸収体１は熱可塑性樹脂をブロー成形によって中空状に成形され、車体（図示せず）に車体取り付け面２を介して固定されている。また、中空部９，１０を挟んだ反対側には衝撃受け面３が設けられている。 The shock absorber 1 is formed into a hollow shape by blow molding a thermoplastic resin, and is fixed to a vehicle body (not shown) via a vehicle body attachment surface 2. An impact receiving surface 3 is provided on the opposite side across the hollow portions 9 and 10.
また、該車体取り付け面２から該衝撃受け面３に連絡する両側面部には、複数の衝撃受け面側凹部４と、同じく複数の車体取り付け面側凹部５が千鳥足状に互い違いに並進しながらジグザグ状リブ６を隔てて配置されている。 In addition, a plurality of impact receiving surface side recesses 4 and a plurality of vehicle body mounting surface side recesses 5 are zigzag while alternately translating in a staggered manner on both side surfaces connecting from the vehicle body mounting surface 2 to the impact receiving surface 3. The ribs 6 are spaced apart.
尚、該熱可塑性樹脂としてはポリプロピレンやポリエチレン等のポリオレフィン系樹脂がコストの面で望ましいが、他の樹脂であってもブロー成形可能であれば良く、ガラス繊維やタルク等が混錬された複合樹脂でも良い。 The thermoplastic resin is preferably a polyolefin-based resin such as polypropylene or polyethylene in terms of cost, but other resins may be used as long as they can be blow-molded, and a composite in which glass fibers and talc are kneaded. Resin may be used.
外部衝撃体（図示せず）が図1及び図２の矢印Ａの方向から該衝撃吸収体１の該衝撃受け面３に衝突する場合、該ジグザグ状リブ６はブロー成形されているために内側が中空なジグザグ中空部１１となっており、尚且つ該衝撃荷重方向にほぼ直角の方向に該ジグザグ状リブ６が走っているので該衝撃荷重方向の変形に対する剛性が比較的低く、衝突の荷重を受けて他の部分に先駆け真っ先に変形する。即ち該ジグザグ状リブ６は初期衝撃緩衝機構として働く。 When an external impact body (not shown) collides with the impact receiving surface 3 of the impact absorber 1 from the direction of the arrow A in FIGS. 1 and 2, the zigzag rib 6 is blown to the inside. Is a hollow zigzag hollow portion 11 and the zigzag rib 6 runs in a direction substantially perpendicular to the impact load direction, so the rigidity against deformation in the impact load direction is relatively low, and the impact load In response to this, it deforms first ahead of other parts. That is, the zigzag rib 6 functions as an initial shock absorbing mechanism.
更に変形が進み、該ジグザグ状リブ６の該ジグザグ中空部１１が潰れて該ジグザグ状リブ６を構成する中空外壁１２の樹脂同士が接触すると今度は該衝撃受け面側凹部４と該車体取り付け面側凹部５が変形を開始する。 When the deformation further progresses and the zigzag hollow portion 11 of the zigzag rib 6 is crushed and the resins of the hollow outer walls 12 constituting the zigzag rib 6 come into contact with each other, the impact receiving surface side recess 4 and the vehicle body mounting surface are now turned on. The side recess 5 starts to deform.
この該衝撃受け面側凹部４と該車体取り付け面側凹部５には該矢印Ａの方向とほぼ平行な平行リブ７，８がそれぞれあるが、該平行リブ７，８は該衝撃荷重方向にほぼ平行なため該ジグザグ状リブ６よりも該衝撃荷重方向の変形に対する剛性が高く、該ジグザグ状リブ６が変形したときよりも更に多くの衝撃エネルギーを吸収することができる。 The impact receiving surface side recess 4 and the vehicle body mounting surface side recess 5 have parallel ribs 7 and 8 substantially parallel to the direction of the arrow A, respectively. The parallel ribs 7 and 8 are substantially in the impact load direction. Since they are parallel to each other, the rigidity against deformation in the direction of the impact load is higher than that of the zigzag rib 6, and more impact energy can be absorbed than when the zigzag rib 6 is deformed.
また、上記の例では衝撃受け面側凹部４と、同じく車体取り付け面側凹部５は中空部９，１０によって両側に隔てられているが、両側の衝撃受け面側凹部４，４や車体取り付け面側凹部５，５はそれぞれ凹部同士を該中空部側同士で接触させてもよい。 Further, in the above example, the impact receiving surface side recess 4 and the vehicle body mounting surface side recess 5 are separated on both sides by the hollow portions 9 and 10, but the impact receiving surface side recesses 4 and 4 and the vehicle body mounting surface on both sides are separated. The side recesses 5 and 5 may contact the recesses with each other on the hollow side.
以上実施例に述べたように本発明によれば、衝突の際に先ず、やや剛性の低いジグザグ状リブの変形により初期の衝撃を緩衝し、次いで衝撃受け面側凹部と該車体取り付け面側凹部の剛性の高いそれぞれの平行リブの変形により衝撃エネルギーの大部分を吸収するという２段階式衝撃緩衝吸収効果により、乗員に過大な衝撃が加わることはない。 As described above in the embodiments, according to the present invention, in the event of a collision, first, the initial impact is buffered by the deformation of the zigzag rib having a slightly low rigidity, and then the impact receiving surface side recess and the vehicle body mounting surface side recess. Due to the two-stage shock absorbing effect of absorbing most of the impact energy by deformation of each of the highly rigid parallel ribs, no excessive impact is applied to the occupant.
車両の前面衝突、側面衝突、背面衝突時の衝撃緩衝吸収装置用部材として利用可能である。 It can be used as a member for shock absorbing device at the time of frontal collision, side collision, and rear collision of a vehicle.
