Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to the rear body structure of an automobile, and in particular, as shown in FIG. 3 is Atsupahinge 4
and an opening 30 for attaching lamps, which is attached by the lower hinge 5 and opens rearward by the side frame structure 10 of the part to which the lower hinge 5 is attached and the vehicle body outer plate 20 fixed thereto. The present invention relates to a rear body structure of an automobile formed with.

[Prior art]

Focusing on the area A near the opening 30 for attaching lamps in the above-mentioned type of automobile, conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 11, the side frame structure 10
The vehicle body outer panels 20 are connected only at portions a and b on the outer surface of the vehicle body, but are not connected inside, and the load acting on the lower hinge 5 is substantially borne only by the side frame structure 10. It's getting old,
It is difficult to ensure the strength and rigidity of the side frame structure 10 in this part. In addition, in the conventional structure, the opening 30 for installing lamps is located on the inside side of the vehicle (the 11th
There are no shields installed on the left side of the diagram.
Preventing water from entering the vehicle interior is achieved only by a sealing member (not shown) interposed between the mounting flange of the lamps and the periphery of the lamp mounting opening 30.
However, it is difficult to reliably prevent water from entering the vehicle interior using only the sealing member, and there is a concern that water may enter the vehicle interior.

[Purpose of invention]

The present invention was developed in view of these circumstances, and its purpose is to increase the strength and rigidity of the side frame structure at the part where the lower hinge is attached by adding one member, and to prevent water from entering the passenger compartment. The aim is to ensure that

[Structure of the idea]

In order to achieve such an object, in the present invention, in the above-mentioned type of automobile, a housing is disposed on the inside of the vehicle interior of the opening for attaching lamps, and a peripheral portion of the housing is connected to the side frame structure and the housing. A space is formed in which the lamps are housed by being fixed to the outer panel of the vehicle body.

[Functions and effects of the idea]

As a result, in the present invention, the side frame structure and the outer panel of the vehicle body can be connected through the housing, and the strength and rigidity of the side frame structure at the portion where the lower hinge is attached can be significantly increased. In addition, the housing prevents water from entering the vehicle interior through the lamp installation opening and the lamps at the rear of the lamps, making it possible to reliably prevent water from entering the vehicle interior. .

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings. FIG. 2 shows an enlarged view of part A in FIG. A lower hinge 5 is attached to the side frame structure 10 at. Side frame structure 10
As shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, the first member 11 (see FIG. 5) and the second member 12 (see FIG. ), a third member 13 (see FIG. 7) disposed on the back of the second member 12 and whose rear end is fixed to the back of the rear end of the second member 12, and the back of the second member 12. The part where the lower hinge 5 is attached (the fourth
In the part shown in the figure), the rear end was fixed to the back of the front end of the first member 11, and in the part slightly above it (the part shown in Fig. 3), the front end was fixed to the front end of the third member 13. The fourth member 14 (see FIG. 8) and the fourth member 14 (see FIG. 8)
The second member 12 is disposed below the member 14 so that the rear end thereof is connected to the second member 12.
A fifth member 15 (see FIG. 9) whose front end portion is fixed to the front end portion of the third member 13 is provided on the rear surface of the intermediate portion of the fifth member 15 . Note that a lower hinge mounting nut 12a, a back stopper mounting nut 12b, and an upper hinge mounting nut 12c are fixed to the back surface of the second member 12, respectively.
Further, on the back side of the third member 13, there are a lower hinge mounting nut 13a and an upper hinge mounting nut 13a.
b are fixed respectively.

Accordingly, in this embodiment, the housing 40 is disposed on the inside of the vehicle interior side of the opening 30 for attaching lamps and the like. The housing 40 is formed as shown in FIG. 10, and is fixed to the third member 13 of the side frame structure 10 by a flange 41 provided around the entire outer periphery of the housing 40, and is secured to the outside of the vehicle body. It is fixed to the back surface of the plate 20 and forms a space R in which the lamps 50 are housed.

In this embodiment configured in this way, the side frame structure 10 and the vehicle body outer panel 2 are connected via the housing 40.
0 can be combined, the strength and rigidity of the side frame structure 10 at the portion where the lower hinge 5 is attached can be significantly increased. In addition, since the housing 40 prevents water from entering the vehicle interior through the lamp attachment opening 30 and the lamps 50 at the rear of the lamps 50, it is possible to reliably prevent water from entering the vehicle interior. can do. The water that has been prevented from entering by the housing 40 flows down along the housing 40 and is discharged from the lower end of the lamp mounting opening 30 to the outside of the vehicle.
