Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial field of application] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a splash rubber.

[Conventional technology]

In order to prevent the cab from becoming dirty due to a splash during traveling, a truck is conventionally equipped with a splash rubber 1 on a fender 3 as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 61-16226 or as shown in FIG. The splash rubber 1 prevents the generated splash from scattering to the lower portion of the side surface of the cab 7.

FIG. 4 shows the attachment structure of such a splash rubber 1, and in the figure, reference numerals 7a and 7b are an outer panel and a side floor panel forming the side surface of the cab 7, and the outer panel 7a and the side floor panel 7b are A fender 3 having a substantially L-shaped cross section is attached to the lower end of the fender 3 so as to project outward from the tire 5, and a splash rubber 1 is attached to the lower end of the fender 3 via a stud bolt 9. There is.

A lip 1a is formed on the upper edge of the splash rubber 1 so as to be in pressure contact with the inner surface of the fender 3, and the lip 1a allows the splash rubber 1 and the fender 3 to be in contact with each other.
The splashing water W or the like is prevented from entering the contact portion 11 of the. In addition, in the figure, reference numeral 13 is a seal rubber, 15,1
Reference numeral 7 denotes a bolt and a nut for attaching the outer panel 7a and the side floor panel 7b, and the inner fender 19 is bolted by the bolt 15 and the nut 17. or,
Reference numeral 3a is a folded piece that enhances the rigidity of the fender 3.

Thus, the splash rubber 1 attached as described above prevents the splash of the splash on the cab 7.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

However, in the mounting structure of the splash rubber 1 as described above, a gap is generated between the lip 1a and the fender 3 due to the vibration during traveling of the vehicle, so that it is scattered from the tire 5 and adheres to the inner surface of the fender 3 or the like. The water W thus formed penetrated this gap and entered the contact portion 11. Then, the water W that has infiltrated into the abutting portion 11 is, as shown in FIG.
Is collected in the gap 21 between the folded piece 3a of the and the splash rubber 1, and this water W is generated by the airflow during traveling.
However, there is a drawback that it oozes out on the outer surface of the fender and stains the fender 3.

The present invention has been devised in view of such circumstances, and a splash rubber mounting structure that prevents contamination of the cab due to splash and prevents water from entering the joint between the fender and the splash rubber on the tire house side. The purpose is to provide.

[Means for Solving the Problems]

In order to achieve such an object, the present invention extends an inner fender near a lower edge of a fender forming a tire house, and holds an upper edge of a splash rubber at both lower edges of the inner fender and the fender. It was done.

[Action]

According to the present invention, by holding the splash rubber with the extended inner fender and the fender, the joint between the fender and the splash rubber on the tire house side is covered with the inner fender, so that water splashed from the tire into the tire house is prevented. The water splashed from the tire does not enter the joint between the fender and the splash rubber, adheres to the inner surface of the inner fender, and then flows down along the inner fender.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The same parts as those of the conventional example shown in FIG.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 23 is a fender having a substantially L-shaped cross section, which is bolted to the outer panel 7a and the side floor panel 7b of the cab 7, and a folding piece bent inward at the lower end of the fender 23. 23a and a projecting piece 23b having the same height as that of the folded piece 23a are formed along the folded piece 23a at a constant interval. The splash rubber 25 is attached to the lower end of the fender 23, but as shown in FIG. 2, the upper edge portion 25a of the splash rubber 25 has a U-shaped cross section. At the time of mounting, the folding piece 23a and the projecting piece 23b are sandwiched by the U-shaped upper edge portion 25a from above and below.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, in the tire house 27, a resin inner fender 29 having a substantially L-shaped cross section is bolted to the side cover 33 via a bracket 31, and the inner fender 29 has a fender side. The end 29a extends to the vicinity of the folded piece 23a of the fender 23. Then, as shown in FIG. 2, the upper edge portion 25a of the splash rubber 25 which sandwiches the folded piece 23a and the protruding piece 23b from above and below is provided with the folded piece 23a, the protruding piece 23b, and the fender side end of the inner fender 29. Hold the nut with the bolt 35 inserted in the splash rubber 25 and the inner fender 29 by gripping it with the part 29a, and the splash rubber 25 will become the inner fender.
It is fixed to the outside of 27, and the joint portion of the splash rubber 25 and the fender 23 on the tire house 27 side is covered with the inner fender 29, so that the water W splashed from the tire 5 does not reach the joint portion. There is. In addition, in FIG. 1, reference numeral 39 is a floor panel, 41 is a cab cross member to which the side cover 33 is attached, and reference numeral 43 is a spacer interposed between the folding piece 23a and the projecting piece 23b.

Since the present embodiment is configured in this way, the splash rubber 25 prevents the splash splashed by the tire 5 from scattering to the lower side surface of the cab 7, as in the conventional example shown in FIG. It will be.

Also, as described above, the splash rubber 25 and the fender 23
Inner fender with extended joint on tire house 27 side
Since it is covered with 27, the water W scattered from the tire 5 into the tire house 27 is splash rubber 25 and fender 23.
It will adhere to the inner surface of the inner fender 29 without reaching the joint part of and will flow down along the inner fender 29.

As described above, the present embodiment includes the inner fender 29 and the fender.
Since the upper edge portion 25a of the splash rubber 25 is held by both lower edge portions of the 23, the joint portion of the fender 23 and the splash rubber 25 on the tire house 27 side is covered with the inner fender 27. As a result, the water W does not splash on the joint, and as a result, the water W enters from the joint between the fender 23 and the splash rubber 25 as in the conventional case, and the water W flows on the outer surface of the fender 23 due to the airflow during traveling. There is no longer any risk of bleeding into and fouling the fender 23.

Instead of the above embodiment, the inner fender as shown in FIG. 4 may be extended to the lower end of the fender, and the splash rubber may be sandwiched between the inner fender and the fender.

[Effect of device]

As described above, the present invention extends the inner fender near the lower edge of the fender forming the tire house, and sandwiches the upper edge of the splash rubber with the lower edges of the inner fender and the fender. Therefore, according to the present invention, the joint between the fender and the splash rubber on the tire house side is covered with the extended inner fender, so that the water splashed from the tire does not reach the joint between the fender and the splash rubber. As a result, there is no possibility that water infiltrates from the joint between the fender and the splash rubber as in the conventional case, and that the water leaks to the outer surface of the fender due to the airflow during traveling to contaminate the fender.
