Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a spare tire slip off from a housing member to absorb an energy effectively at the time of car collision, by forming a nut retaining member in the retaining bracket of th spare tire housing member, and by retaining a nut by said retaining member in such a manner that the nut can slip off in the forward direction of a car body. CONSTITUTION:A nut retaining member 46 wherein a cut hole 45 opening in the forward direction of a car body is made is formed on the upper part 41 of a retaining bracket 4 which is fixed at a spare tire housing member. On the other hand, a clamp 7 has a U-shaped section formed of the upper piece 71 and lower piece 72 thereof, and a bolt insertion hole 73 is formed through these upper and lower pieces 71 and 72, while a nut 5 is fixed on the lower piece 72. The champ 7 is put on the upper part 41 of the retaining bracket 4 from th open side of the cut hole 45 so that it holds the part 41 between the upper and lower pieces 71 and 72 thereof. A retaining bolt 6 having a pressure board 62 and a grip 63 is inserted through the insertion hole 22 of a spare tire wheel 21, the bolt insertion hole 73 of the clamp 7 and the cut hole 45 and held with the nut 5. The wheel 21 is pressed down by the pressure board 62, and thus a spare tire 2 is retained.

A holding bracket (4) with a curved mounting surface (4 widths and 4 stories) is fixed by spot welding to the lower end of J.Then, a holding bolt (6) inserted through the spare tire wheel (211) The spare tire (2) is held by being screwed onto the nut (5) of the holding bracket (4). , (B) is a fuel tank. However, in the conventional spare tire holding structure described above, when an impact is applied from the rear of the vehicle (in the direction of arrow (C) in Figure 1), the energy is transferred to the storage section (3). ) even if the spare tire (2) is firmly held by the holding bracket (4), the spare tire (2) will not fit into the housing (3).
) and remains in the storage part (3), and when the storage part (3) deforms, the spare tire (2) acts as a rigid body, preventing the storage part (3) from deforming effectively. There was a possibility that sufficient energy absorption would not be possible. Therefore, the impact is directly transmitted to the seat retainer and the fuel tank (3) disposed in front of the storage section (3), which may cause damage to the occupants or damage such as fuel leakage.

In order to achieve this object, in the present invention, the rear floor of the vehicle body is recessed to form a storage section, and a retaining bolt that is screwed into a nut of a retaining bracket fixed to the bottom of the storage section is provided as a spare. In a structure in which a spare tire is held by being inserted through and fastened to a tire wheel, the holding bracket is formed with a nut holding part that is opened toward the front of the vehicle body, and the nut is attached to the nut holding part so that the nut is not attached to the vehicle body. The spare tire is held in place by a structure that allows it to be held in the front in a removable manner.In the event of a rear impact, the nut holding part separates from the nut, causing the spare tire to be released from the holding bracket and the spare tire to be removed. It is designed to allow escape from the storage section.

以下、図示実施例に基づき本発明を説明する。The present invention will be explained below based on illustrated embodiments.

When the spare tire (2) is held in place, if a force is generated that moves the spare tire (2) forward due to an impact caused by a rear collision of a car, etc., the force is transferred from the spare tire wheel (21) to the spare tire (21). The force is transmitted to the holding bolt 6 through the insertion hole (731 edge) of the tire wheel c21), and the holding bolt (6) attempts to push the nut (5) and clamp (7) forward. The tightening force of the nut (5) is about human power and is not very large, so the force moves forward with the holding bolt (6), the nut (5), and the clamp (the force moves forward. Therefore, the bolt part (6])
When they move, there is no hooking force, and they eventually separate from the nut holding part (46). Now, the spare tire (2) is no longer held, so it escapes from the storage section (3) and no longer restricts the deformation of the storage section (3).
The storage portion (3) is effectively deformed and the impact energy is absorbed.
