Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shock absorbing structure for a door efficiently absorbing the shock energy generated by a side collision and protecting an occupant from the shock at the time of the side collision. SOLUTION: A second shock absorbing member 8 having rigidity higher than that of the a shock absorbing member 7 is fitted on the side of an outer panel 2, and the interval between the outer panel 2 and the second shock absorbing member 8 can be reduced. When a side door 5 is deformed inward by a shock, the outer panel 2 is brought into contact with the second shock absorbing member 8 immediately after the first shock absorbing member 7 is moved inward to collide with an occupant 13. The first shock absorbing member 7 does not escape to the outside when it is brought into contact with the occupant 13, and the first shock absorbing member 7 is fully deformed and collapsed to efficiently absorb the shock energy.

Since the second shock absorbing member having higher rigidity than the first shock absorbing member is arranged on the outer panel side as described above, the distance between the outer panel and the shock absorbing member can be reduced. Therefore, when the door is deformed inward by the impact, the outer panel comes into contact with the second impact absorbing member immediately after the first impact absorbing member moves inward and collides with the occupant. Accordingly, even if the first impact absorbing member comes into contact with the occupant, the first impact absorbing member does not escape to the outside, so that the first impact absorbing member is sufficiently deformed and crushed to absorb the impact energy more efficiently.

FIG. 4 is a sectional view showing a state after the impact of the first embodiment according to the present invention. The side door 5 is pushed further inward after a lapse of time from the initial stage of the impact, but as shown in FIG. , The second shock absorbing member 8 and the impact bar 11
Since the distance between the first shock absorbing member 7 and the first shock absorbing member 7 moves inward and collides with the occupant 13, the impact bar 11 of the outer panel 2 contacts the second shock absorbing member 8.
Therefore, the first impact absorbing member 7 does not escape to the outside and is sufficiently deformed and crushed, so that the first impact absorbing member 7 efficiently absorbs the impact energy and protects the occupant 13 from the impact force. Since the second shock absorbing member 8 has high rigidity, the second shock absorbing member 8 is not crushed (deformed) much even if the impact bar 11 comes into contact with the second shock absorbing member 8.

FIG. 5 is a graph showing the relationship between the impact force and the amount of deformation of the first impact absorbing member according to the first embodiment of the present invention, where the horizontal axis is the deformation time of the first impact absorbing member and the vertical axis is. The impact force F is shown, the solid line curve shows the first embodiment, and the broken line curve shows the conventional example. In the case of the first embodiment, as described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4, the impact bar 11 of the outer panel 2 does not contact the second impact absorbing member 8 at the initial stage of impact, so the amount of collapse of the first impact absorbing member 7 is large. (Deformation amount) is small,
At approximately the same time as the impact (after the lapse of T 1 hours from the initial impact), the impact bar 11 of the outer panel 2 causes the second impact absorbing member 8 to move.
Abut. Therefore, the first impact absorbing member 7 does not escape to the outside and is sufficiently deformed and crushed, so that the impact energy is more efficiently absorbed by the first impact absorbing member 7 and the occupant 13 is protected from the impact force.

The first shock absorbing member 32 is composed of grid-shaped ribs 32a ... (Extended in the vehicle width direction) (... indicates a plurality, the same applies hereinafter) and projections 32b formed on the outer circumference of the ribs 32a. Then, the protrusion 32b is fixed to the door lining 4 with a screw 34, a resin clip or the like. The second shock absorbing member 33 is
The ribs 33a ... Extend in the vehicle width direction and have a larger wall thickness than the ribs 32a. The ribs 33a. The second shock absorbing member 33 includes the rib 3
Since the wall thickness of 3a is larger than that of the rib 32a, the rigidity is higher than that of the first shock absorbing member 32, and the second shock absorbing member 33 penetrates the opening 3a of the inner panel 3 and projects toward the outer panel 2 side. Therefore, the distance between the second shock absorbing member 33 and the impact bar 11 of the outer panel 2 becomes smaller. The collar portion 33b is fixed to the inner panel 3 with screws 35.

As described above, by reducing the distance between the second impact absorbing member 33 and the impact bar 11 of the outer panel 2, the door impact absorbing structure 30 of the fourth embodiment is similar to the first embodiment. (1) The impact energy is more efficiently absorbed by the impact absorbing member 32 to protect the occupant 13 from the impact force. The door shock absorbing structure 30 includes a shock absorbing member 31, a first shock absorbing member 32, and a second shock absorbing member 33.
By dividing into and, it can be easily manufactured.

The present invention has the following effects due to the above configuration. According to the first aspect, since the second shock absorbing member having higher rigidity than the first shock absorbing member is attached so as to be located on the outer panel side, it is possible to reduce the distance between the outer panel and the shock absorbing member. Therefore, when the door is deformed inward by the impact, the outer panel comes into contact with the second impact absorbing member immediately after the first impact absorbing member moves inward and collides with the occupant. Thus, even if the first impact absorbing member comes into contact with the occupant, the first impact absorbing member does not escape to the outside, so that the first impact absorbing member is sufficiently deformed and crushed to more efficiently absorb the impact energy and impact the occupant during a side collision. Protect from.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the shock absorbing member is lattice-assembled with a plurality of ribs extending in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, the shock absorbing member can be easily molded into a desired shape by resin molding.
