The hood portion 2 of the conventional instrument panel 1 is provided with ribs 4 to prevent its deformation. At the same time, when such ribs 4 are provided, the outside of the hood portion 2 is prevented. A so-called sink mark 5 is generated on the surface during molding (the molding direction is indicated by arrow A). In order to avoid the occurrence of the sink mark 5, it is necessary to form the rib 4 shallow (small), and in this case, sufficient rigidity around the hood portion 2 cannot be secured. Therefore, it is difficult to effectively prevent the deformation of the base portion 2a of the hood portion 2.

In this embodiment, a reinforcing portion 6 is integrally formed and connected to the hood portion 2, and the reinforcing portion 6 is fixed to the hood portion 2. The reinforcing portion 6 is composed of a protruding piece 8 integrally formed with the hood portion 2 via an integral hinge 7 at a lower end portion of the hood portion 2 near the meter 3. Then, the end portion of the projecting piece 8 is fixed to a proper position inside the hood portion 2. When fixing the protruding piece 8 to the hood portion 2, an engaging portion (or an engaging hole) 9 formed at an end portion of the protruding piece 8 and a protrusion or a shaft portion 1 provided inside the hood portion 2

According to the present invention, the reinforcing portion 6 is constituted by the protruding piece 8 integrally formed on the hood portion 2 via the integral hinge 7, and the reinforcing portion 6 is fixed to the inside of the hood portion 2. Therefore, the strength around the hood portion 2 can be significantly improved. In this case, since the hood portion 2 is not provided with the ribs 4 (see FIG. 3) as in the conventional case, there is no fear of sink marks during molding, and the reinforcing portion 6 increases the strength of the hood portion 2. It is possible to secure sufficient rigidity around the hood portion 2. Therefore, the deformation of the hood portion 2 can be effectively prevented, and the proper function of the hood portion 2 and the excellent external configuration can be realized.

As described above, according to the present invention, the reinforcing portion is formed by the protrusions integrally formed on the hood portion, and the reinforcing portion is fixed to the inside of the hood portion, so that the strength around the hood portion is increased. It is possible to reliably prevent the deformation around the hood portion and the occurrence of sink marks on the surface. Further, the structure is simple, and there is an advantage that the rigidity equal to or higher than that of the reinforcing method using another material can be secured.
