BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 shows a four-wheeled vehicle 1 having a rear structure according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, 2 is a rear opening for loading and unloading formed in the rear part of a vehicle body, and 3 is this rear part. Rear bumpers 4 and 4 arranged below the opening 2 are luggage compartments provided at the rear of the vehicle body. Then, the rear opening 2
The upper surface 3a of the rear bumper 3 forms a space 5 for loading and unloading luggage when loading or unloading luggage from the luggage compartment 4. A flip-up type back door 6 is provided at the rear of the vehicle body (see FIG. 3), and the back door 6 is configured to open and close the rear opening 2.

The above-mentioned rear bumper 3 is an integral component made of, for example, a synthetic resin, and the upper surface 3 at the center of its left and right sides.
As shown in FIG. 2, a is formed as an inclined (inclination angle θ ₂ ) flat surface, and a plurality of elongated rubber members 7 are formed.
Is attached as a non-slip member substantially along the left-right direction as clearly shown in FIGS. More specifically, when the rear bumper 3 is assembled to the rear part of the vehicle body of the four-wheeled vehicle 1, as shown in FIG.
The upper surface 3a of the four-wheeled vehicle 1 is disposed below the rear opening 2 of the four-wheeled vehicle 1, and is inclined downward from the inside of the luggage compartment 4 toward the outside of the vehicle body. Thus, the upper surface 3a and the rear opening 2 form a space 5 for loading and unloading luggage. Further, the above-mentioned rubber member 7 is formed by molding a rubber material into a band shape or a string shape, and a plurality of rubber members 7 are provided on the upper surface 3a.
As shown in FIG. 5, they are arranged and attached in parallel at substantially equal intervals.

According to the rear structure of the four-wheeled vehicle 1 of this example, the upper surface 3a of the rear bumper 3 which constitutes the lower part of the space 5 for loading and unloading the luggage is inclined downward as described above. Since the space portion 5 is arranged, the corner portion α (see FIG. 2) of the lower portion is removed, and the space portion 5 for loading and unloading the luggage can be widened accordingly, and the loading and unloading work of the luggage can be performed. It can be done more easily.

Moreover, since the rubber member 7 is attached to the upper surface 3a of the rear bumper 3, the luggage is prevented from slipping. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, when the luggage 8 is temporarily placed on the upper surface 3a of the rear bumper 3 when the luggage 8 is loaded into the luggage compartment 4 or when the luggage 8 is unloaded from the luggage compartment 4, the luggage 8 is Since the load 8 is placed on the rubber member 7, the luggage 8 is prevented from slipping due to the large contact resistance between the rubber member 7 and the luggage 8 even if the upper surface 3a is inclined with respect to the horizontal plane. As it is, the temporary state is maintained with good stability. In addition, as shown in FIG.
The rear end portion 7a of the luggage 8 is temporarily placed on the rubber member 7 and the center of gravity G of the luggage 8 is brought into contact with the luggage 8 and the rear bumper 3.
By arranging the baggage 8 closer to the inside of the luggage compartment 4, the luggage 8 is rotated by its own weight in the direction of the arrow R ₁ and placed on the luggage compartment floor 9. The luggage 8 can be smoothly stored in the luggage compartment 4 by pushing in the R ₂ direction and moving it on the luggage compartment floor 9.

Further, since the plurality of rubber members 7 attached to the upper surface 3a of the rear bumper 3 are elongated members and are arranged in parallel with each other, water and mud splash on the upper surface 3a of the rear bumper 3. However, this water or mud naturally flows along the upper side portion of the rubber member 7 and is removed from the upper surface 3 a of the rear bumper 3.

The embodiment of the present invention has been described above.
The present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and various modifications and changes can be made based on the technical idea of the present invention. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, cutouts 10 are provided at appropriate places of a plurality of rubber members 7 arranged in parallel with each other, and these cutouts 10 are used as passages for water, mud, or the like. You may do it. Further, the rubber members 7 do not necessarily have to be arranged in parallel along the left-right direction of the rear bumper 3 as shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, and as shown in FIG. The upper surface 3a
You may make it arrange | position above. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the belt-shaped or string-shaped rubber member 7 is used as the slip-preventing member for luggage, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the slip-preventing member made of a material having a large friction coefficient other than rubber can be used. It is also possible to use members. Further, it goes without saying that the present invention can be applied not only to the above-described rear structure of the four-wheeled vehicle but also to other various types of luggage transport vehicles.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention, the upper surface of the rear bumper is arranged so as to incline downward from the inside of the luggage compartment to the outside, and the slip preventing member is arranged on the upper surface of the rear bumper. Therefore, the space for loading and unloading the luggage can be widened by the amount of inclination of the upper surface of the rear bumper, so that the loading and unloading work of the luggage can be easily performed. Moreover, by disposing the anti-slip member on the upper surface of the rear bumper, when the luggage is placed on the upper surface of the rear bumper, the luggage can be placed with good stability and the loaded state can be maintained. When loading and unloading, luggage can be temporarily placed on the upper surface of the rear bumper, which is very convenient. Furthermore, when a band-shaped or string-shaped rubber member is used as the anti-slip member, foreign matter such as water or mud on the upper surface of the rear bumper naturally moves along the rubber member. It is possible to avoid the problem that foreign matter such as water and mud accumulates on the upper surface of the rear bumper.
