  However, in the invention described in Patent Document 1, since the display protrudes from the general surface (design surface) of the instrument panel, an occupant may collide with the display at the time of a vehicle collision. For this reason, this prior art has room for improvement from the viewpoint of alleviating the impact that the occupant receives from the display during a vehicle collision.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an instrument panel structure that can alleviate the impact received by a passenger from a display during a vehicle collision.

The instrument panel structure according to the invention of claim 1 is provided on the back side of the instrument panel, the instrument panel provided in the front part of the passenger compartment, the display disposed on the top surface of the instrument panel, Instrument panel reinforcement extending along the vehicle width direction, and connecting the display and instrument panel reinforcement so that the display is supported by the instrument panel reinforcement, and impact caused by impact load A support member that absorbs energy, the support member being fixed to the display and extending to the instrument panel reinforcement, a first bracket having a long plate shape, and the instrument panel liner A long plate-like second bracket that is fixed to a reinforcement and extends toward the display, and the first bracket and the second bracket are joined together. When an impact load is input, the first bracket is moved to the second bracket. And a joint portion that moves toward the instrument panel reinforcement side along the vehicle body, and the joint portion is provided on one of the first bracket and the second bracket and extends along the vehicle longitudinal direction. A long hole-shaped slide part formed on the other side of the first bracket and the second bracket, and a hole part into which a fastener is inserted together with the slide part. The first bracket is disposed on the second bracket at the joint.

  In the instrument panel structure according to the first aspect of the present invention, the display is arranged on the upper surface of the instrument panel provided in the front part of the passenger compartment. An instrument panel reinforcement extending along the vehicle width direction is provided on the back side of the instrument panel.

  The display and the instrument panel reinforcement are connected by the support member so that the display is supported by the instrument panel reinforcement. Generally, the instrument panel reinforcement is formed of a member having high strength and rigidity. For this reason, even if a display enlarges and mass increases by supporting a display by the said instrument panel reinforcement via a supporting member, the said display can fully be supported.

On the other hand, when the occupant has a secondary collision with the display during a vehicle collision, the support member absorbs impact energy due to the impact load .

Furthermore, in this instrument panel structure, the support member includes a first bracket and a second bracket. The first bracket is fixed to the display, and the second bracket is fixed to the instrument panel reinforcement.

Here, the 1st bracket and the 2nd bracket are joined by the joined part, and if an impact load is inputted, the 1st bracket will move to the instrument panel reinforcement side along the 2nd bracket. Yes. Thus, impact energy is absorbed in the process of movement .

Furthermore, in this instrument panel structure, the joint portion is configured to include a long hole-like slide portion and a hole portion. The slide part is provided in one of the first bracket and the second bracket, and the hole is provided in either one of the first bracket and the second bracket. The slide part is formed along the vehicle front-rear direction, and a fastener is inserted into the hole together with the slide part.

  And it will be fastened in the state where the 1st bracket and the 2nd bracket were positioned via a fastener at the predetermined position of a slide part, but an impact load larger than the fastening force (axial force) by this fastener Is input, the fastener relatively moves along the shape of the slide portion. That is, the first bracket moves relative to the second bracket. At this time, a sliding resistance is generated between the fastener and the peripheral edge portion of the slide portion, whereby the impact energy is absorbed.

  In addition, since the display is arranged on the top surface of the instrument panel, when a passenger collides with the display in the event of a vehicle collision, an impact load is applied to the display from obliquely upward at the rear of the vehicle to obliquely downward at the front of the vehicle. May be entered. For this reason, a 1st bracket will slide in an impact load direction with respect to a 2nd bracket because a slide part is formed along a vehicle front-back direction in a 1st bracket or a 2nd bracket. For this reason, the impact which a passenger | crew receives from a display at the time of a vehicle collision can be relieve | moderated more stably.

There is sex. However, in the instrument panel structure according to the first aspect of the present invention, since the first bracket is disposed on the second bracket at the joint, the impact load transmitted to the first bracket is applied to the first bracket. Transmission to the second bracket disposed below the one bracket can be ensured.

An instrument panel structure according to a second aspect of the present invention is the instrument panel structure according to the first aspect , wherein the instrument panel reinforcement has a cylindrical shape, and the instrument panel reinforcement in the second bracket. Is a circular arc piece that is formed by bending one end portion of the second bracket toward the upper side of the vehicle and in surface contact with the upper side of the outer peripheral surface of the instrument panel reinforcement.

  When the occupant has a secondary collision with the display at the time of a vehicle collision, for example, an impact load is input to the display from an obliquely upward rearward of the vehicle toward an obliquely downward forward of the vehicle. For this reason, the component force which goes below a vehicle acts on the impact load input into a 1st bracket via a display.

For this reason, in the instrument panel structure which concerns on invention of Claim 2 , the circular arc piece which surface-contacts the upper part side of the outer peripheral surface of an instrument panel reinforcement as a fixing | fixed part with the instrument panel reinforcement in a 2nd bracket. Is provided. Thus, the fixed portion of the second bracket is prevented from being peeled off from the outer peripheral surface of the instrument panel reinforcement by the component force directed downward of the vehicle that is applied by the impact load transmitted from the first bracket to the second bracket. it can.

  In this state, the hole 64 (see FIG. 3) is set on the opening 74A side of the notch 74, and the bracket 54 and the bracket 68 are fastened by the bolt 62 and the nut 66. In this way, the display 12 (see FIG. 3) is supported by the instrument panel reinforcement 14 via the support member 52 (the bracket 54 and the bracket 68).

(Operation and effect of instrument panel structure)
Next, operations and effects of the instrument panel structure according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described. As shown in FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the display 12 is supported by the instrument panel reinforcement 14 via the support member 52. In general, the instrument panel reinforcement 14 is formed of a member having high strength and rigidity. For this reason, even if the display 12 is increased in size and mass by supporting the display 12 by the instrument panel reinforcement 14 via the support member 52, the display 12 can be sufficiently supported.

  Here, in this embodiment, the support member 52 is configured by a bracket 54 and a bracket 68, and a hole 64 through which the bolt 62 can be inserted is formed on the bracket 54 side, and the bolt 62 is screwed. A nut 66 is fixed. On the other hand, a notch 74 into which the bolt 62 can be inserted is formed on the bracket 68 side. The bolt 62 is screwed into the nut 66 through the notch 74 and the hole 64, and the bracket 54 and the bracket 68 are fastened by the bolt 62 and the nut 66.

  Thus, the bracket at the predetermined position of the notch 74 (as shown in FIG. 5 (A), the opening 74A side) by the fastening force (axial force) by the bolt 62 and the nut 66. 54 and the bracket 68 are fastened with the bolt 62 and the nut 66 positioned. However, when an impact load (arrow F) larger than the fastening force is input, the bracket 54 is moved through the bolt 62 along the shape of the notch 74 as shown in FIG. Move to the 14th side. At this time, sliding resistance is generated between the bolt 62 and the nut 66 and the peripheral edge portion of the notch 74, thereby absorbing impact energy.

  Further, when a passenger collides with the display 12 at the time of a vehicle collision, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the display 12 has an impact load (arrow) from an obliquely upward rearward of the vehicle toward an obliquely downward forward of the vehicle. F) is input. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 5A, the notch 74 is formed along the vehicle front-rear direction of the bracket 68.

  As a result, when an impact load (arrow F) of a predetermined value or more is input at the joint 60, the bracket 54 follows the direction in which the impact load (arrow F) acts as shown in FIG. Slide against the bracket 68. For this reason, the impact which a passenger | crew receives from the display 12 at the time of a vehicle collision can be relieve | moderated more stably.

  Further, when an impact load (arrow F) equal to or greater than the fastening force (axial force) by the bolt 62 and the nut 66 is input to the joint portion 60, the fastening state between the bracket 54 and the bracket 68 is released. Thus, the load when the bracket 54 moves relative to the bracket 68 can be easily set.

  Further, flange portions 55 that are bent upward in the vehicle are provided at both ends in the width direction of the bracket 54, and flange portions 69 that are bent downward in the vehicle are provided at both ends in the width direction of the bracket 68. Yes. Thus, the flange portions 55 and 69 are provided on the brackets 54 and 68, respectively, along the longitudinal direction of the brackets 54 and 68. Thereby, the strength and rigidity of the brackets 54 and 68 themselves can be improved, and the bolt 62 can be reliably guided along the notch 74 when an impact load (arrow F) is input.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5A, with the bracket 68 fixed to the instrument panel reinforcement 14 and the bracket 54 fixed to the display 12, the support of the bracket 54 is placed on the support piece 72 of the bracket 68. It arrange | positions so that the piece 58 may overlap. When the occupant has a secondary collision with the display 12 at the time of a vehicle collision, for example, an impact load (arrow F) is input to the display 12 from obliquely upward at the rear of the vehicle to obliquely downward at the front of the vehicle. For this reason, the component force toward the vehicle lower side acts on the impact load (arrow F) input to the bracket 54 via the display 12.

  In the joint portion 60 that joins the bracket 54 and the bracket 68, although not shown, when the bracket 54 is disposed under the bracket 68, the bracket 54 moves away from the bracket 68 by the impact load (arrow F). There is a possibility of deformation. However, in this embodiment, since the bracket 54 is disposed on the bracket 68 in the joint portion 60, the impact load (arrow F) transmitted to the bracket 54 is applied to the bracket disposed below the bracket 54. 68 can be reliably transmitted. For this reason, the bracket 54 can move effectively with respect to the bracket 68.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the mating piece 56 is bent toward the upper side of the vehicle at one end of the bracket 54, and the bracket 54 is fixed to the display 12 while being in surface contact with the back surface of the display 12. I try to do it. Thereby, the impact load received by the bracket 54 via the mating piece 56 can be effectively transmitted to the bracket 68 disposed under the bracket 54. That is, load transmission is performed more efficiently than when the mating piece 56 is bent downward in the vehicle.

  On the other hand, one end of the bracket 68 is provided with an arc piece 70 that is curved upward toward the vehicle and is in surface contact with the outer peripheral surface of the instrument panel reinforcement 14 formed in a cylindrical shape. As a result, the fixed portion (arc piece 70) of the bracket 68 is prevented from being peeled off from the outer peripheral surface of the instrument panel reinforcement 14 due to the downward component of the vehicle acting by the impact load (arrow F) transmitted from the bracket 54 to the bracket 68. Can be. Although not shown in the figure, it is needless to say that a circular hole piece that is in surface contact with the outer peripheral surface of the instrument panel reinforcement 14 may be provided on the vehicle lower side of the arc piece 70.

  By the way, in this embodiment, the nut 66 is fixed to the bracket 54, and the bolt 62 screwed into the nut 66 is accessible from the vehicle lower side. As shown in FIG. 2, the center register 22, 24 and the air conditioning operation unit 43 are attached to the instrument panel 10, and an opening 76 and an opening 78 for attaching these are formed. For this reason, the bolt 62 can be attached by a dedicated tool (not shown) through the opening 76 or 78 depending on the arrangement angle of the support member 52. Therefore, assembly workability is good.

  Thus, in this embodiment, since the bolt 62 is fastened through the openings 76 and 78 provided in the rear portion of the vehicle in the instrument panel 10, the nut 66 is fixed to the bracket 54 in advance, and the bolt 62 from the bracket 68 side is fixed. Are configured to be screwed together. However, although not shown, an opening may be provided on the upper surface of the instrument panel 10 and fastening with the bolt 62 may be performed through the opening. In this case, the bolt 62 is screwed from the bracket 54 side.

(Supplement of embodiment)
In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, a hole 64 through which the bolt 62 can be inserted is formed on the bracket 54 side, and a notch 74 through which the bolt 62 can be inserted is formed on the bracket 68 side. Yes. However, the bracket 54 is not limited to this as long as it is movable with respect to the bracket 68. For example, although not shown, a notch may be formed on the bracket 54 side and a hole may be formed on the bracket 68 side.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, although the notch part 74 was formed, since the bracket 54 should just be moved to the vehicle front side, it is not restricted to this. For example, although not shown, a long hole portion may be formed in the support piece 58 of the bracket 54 along the longitudinal direction of the support piece 58.

  Further, the flange portions 55 and 69 provided in the width direction of the brackets 54 and 68 may be arranged so as to face each other. Thereby, when the bracket 54 moves along the bracket 68, the impact energy can be absorbed also by the sliding resistance between the flange portion 55 and the flange portion 69.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, three brackets 54 and three brackets 68 are provided. However, the number of brackets 54 and 68 is not necessarily limited to three as long as the display 12 can be supported. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the display 12 may be supported by a single bracket 80 and a bracket 82.

  In this case, it is necessary to increase the strength and rigidity of the brackets 80 and 82 as compared with the case where they are supported by a plurality of brackets. Further, in order to effectively transmit the impact load input to the display 12 to the bracket 80, the area of the mating piece 84 should be larger than that of the mating piece 56 (see FIG. 3). Moreover, the intensity | strength and structure of alignment piece 84 itself can be improved by providing the flange part 84A in the lower part of a alignment piece and the both ends of a vehicle width direction.

  Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above, and other various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It is.
