Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] A. Field of Industrial Application This invention is applied to the rear structure of an automobile body, and particularly relates to a van-type vehicle body structure that uses common parts.

B. Prior Art In order to reduce the production costs of various types of automobiles, it is preferable, for example, that a sedan type car and a five-seat van type car share the underbody of the car body, including the floor panel. However, normally in a three-door sedan type car, the rear seat 1 is located at the rear of the vehicle body, and the rear seat mounting portion 2' of the floor panel 2 is recessed downward, as shown in FIG. On the other hand, in van-type vehicles, in order to make the cargo space wider than the passenger compartment, the mounting position of the rear seat 1 must be moved forward, and the deck portion 2'' of the floor panel 2 that makes up the cargo space must be made completely flat. However, the shape of the floor panel 2 is different, and the installation of the rear seat becomes unstable, making it difficult to share parts.
It was difficult to reduce production costs.

However, the applicant company has recently
By devising the installation of the
A vehicle body structure was proposed that would allow the underbody to be shared with a passenger van type. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, this is the seat cushion 1a of the rear seat 1.
At the same time, a mounting hole (not shown) is provided at a predetermined position in the side member 3 on both sides of the vehicle body, and a seat cushion mounting bracket 4 is attached to this mounting hole. Support the seat cushion 1a. Next is side member 3's quarter wheel house 5.
A hinge bracket 6 is attached to the seat back 1b, a hinge pin 7 protruding from the seat back 1b is inserted into the hinge bracket 6 to support the seat back 1b, and a plate 8 is provided between the seat back 1b and the rear deck 2 of the floor panel 2 to make the seat flat. This is what I did.

By adopting the above structure, even if the floor panel 2 of a sedan-type vehicle is used, it is possible to securely support the rear seat 1 and create a van-type vehicle with a flat cargo compartment floor. Since the underbody of the vehicle body including 2 can be shared between the sedan type car and the 5-seat van type car, the number of manufactured parts can be reduced and production costs can be lowered.

On the other hand, in van-type vehicles, two-seater van-type vehicles are being manufactured in which the rear seats are removed in advance in order to use a larger cargo space. In such a two-seater van type, the rear seat attachment part of the floor panel is also used as a luggage compartment, so the attachment part must also be placed on a flat surface, and as mentioned above, this includes the floor panel of a sedan type car. The underbody cannot be shared, and since the rear seats are not required, the side bodies of five-seater vans cannot be shared either, and special parts must be manufactured, resulting in high production costs. there was.

C. Purpose of the invention This invention allows the vehicle to be converted into a sedan, five-seater van, or two-seater van by sharing the underbody and side body, including the floor panel, and by changing a few parts. To provide a vehicle body structure which can be arbitrarily selected and manufactured, and which allows a two-seater van type vehicle to be manufactured at low cost.

D. Structure of the invention This invention uses the bracket mounting holes formed in the side body to erect a support member.
By attaching a sub-plate across this support member and the hinge bracket provided on the side body behind this member, and making the sub-plate flush with the rear deck part of the floor panel, the rear seat attachment part can be configured as a luggage compartment. This is what was done.

E. Example Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are drawings showing the body structure of a two-seater van type vehicle. things are used. Reference numeral 11 denotes a floor panel that constitutes the underbody of the vehicle, and the same floor panel as that used in 3-door sedan cars and 5-seater van cars is used.

12 is a support member installed in the vehicle width direction using a bracket mounting hole (not shown) formed in the lower front part of the side body 10;
As shown in the figure, a U-shaped mounting bracket 14 is integrally welded to the end of a pipe frame 13 of a predetermined length, and the mounting bracket 14 is brought into contact with the side body 10. It is fixed by tightening bolts etc. into the mounting hole. Further, the support member 12 is integrally provided with a mounting seat surface 15 at a suitable location on the upper surface of the pipe frame 13.

The mounting hole formed in the side body 10 is
When applied to a five-seater van type vehicle, it is preformed to attach a bracket that supports the seat cushion of the rear seat.

Reference numeral 16 denotes a rear quarter wheel house 1 located behind the support member 12 and in a substantially horizontal position.
0' This is a hinge bracket attached to the top surface.
This hinge bracket 16 is attached in advance to rotatably support the seat back of the rear seat when applied to a five-seater van type vehicle.

17 is a sub-plate installed across the support member 12 and the hinge bracket 16;
As shown in FIG. 7, a hinge pin 18 is provided protruding from the rear end side, and the hinge pin 18 is inserted into the support hole 19 of the hinge bracket 16, and the front end is placed and fixed on the upper surface of the support member 12. It has been done. This sub-plate 17 is used, for example, by utilizing a back plate that constitutes a seat back of a rear seat. In this way, there is no need to manufacture special parts.

A second sub-plate 20 is interposed between the front edge of the rear deck portion 21 of the floor panel 11 and the rear edge of the sub-plate 17, and the front and rear edges are supported by both 17 and 21 by appropriate means. be. Both the sub-plate 17 and the second sub-plate 20 are arranged flush with the rear deck portion 21 of the floor panel 11.

Reference numeral 22 denotes a cover that closes a spare tire accommodating portion 23 formed in the rear deck portion 21 of the floor panel 11.

A rug 24 covers the entire upper surface of the sub-plate 17, the second sub-plate 20, and the rear deck portion 21 of the floor panel 11, and forms the floor surface of the luggage compartment 25.

Reference numeral 26 designates a luggage stopper which is fixed upright at the front end of the sub-plate 17. The luggage stopper 26 is formed into a gate shape and has a mounting part 27 integrally connected to the end thereof, which is placed on the rug 24 and is stopped through the rug 24 and the sub-plate 17. It is integrally connected with a mounting seat 15 provided on the support member 12 by bolts or the like, and constitutes the front end of the luggage compartment 25 to prevent luggage etc. from falling forward.

The above embodiment shows the structure of a two-seater van type vehicle, but in the case of a five-seater van type vehicle, the support member 1 is inserted into the mounting hole formed in the side body 10.
2, a seat mounting bracket may be installed, a rear seat seat cushion may be installed between the mounting bracket and the floor panel 11, and a seat back may be attached to the hinge bracket 16.

Effects of the invention This invention allows the underbody, including the side body and floor panel, to be shared between a two-seat van type car and a five-seat van type car, and produces a two-seater van type car. In this case, it is sufficient to install the sub-plate across the hinge bracket previously provided on the side body and the support member installed using the bracket mounting hole, and the sub-panel is also used for a five-seater van type vehicle. The back plate that constitutes the seat back of the rear seat can be used, and it can be manufactured by adding only a few special parts, and there is no need to manufacture many special parts, so production costs can be significantly reduced. , this type of automobile can be provided at low cost.
