- the step portion 70A corresponds to a reinforcing bracket 72 (displacement restricting portion) fixed to the upper surface of the rear floor panel 12.
- the reinforcing bracket 72 is formed by bending a sheet metal material, and has a cross-sectional hat shape when viewed from the vehicle front-rear direction.
- the reinforcing bracket 72 has a flange portion provided on the opening side fixed to the rear floor panel 12 by means such as welding, and is opposed to the step portion 70A of the dilatant member 70 from the inner side in the vehicle width direction (here, abutting). )is doing. As a result, the displacement of the dilatant member 70 toward the inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the rear floor panel 12 is restricted.
- the dilatant member 70 disposed on the side support portion 16A is cured. Therefore, since deformation of the side support portion 16A is suppressed, it is possible to suppress the side support portion 16A from being deformed upward.
- the dilatant member 70 is restricted from being displaced inward in the vehicle width direction by the reinforcing bracket 72 fixed to the rear floor panel 12. For this reason, when the hardened dilatant member stretches between the reinforcing bracket 72 and the door trim 32, a large reaction force can be applied to the door trim 32. As a result, the intrusion speed of the door trim 32 to the inner side in the vehicle width direction can be significantly reduced, so that a sufficient space for deploying the rear side airbag 28 can be secured, and passenger protection performance by the rear side airbag 28 is improved. Can be made.
- the reinforcing bracket 72 (displacement restricting portion) is fixed to the rear floor panel 12.
- the present invention is not limited to this, and a part of the rear floor panel 12 protrudes upward from the vehicle.
- the rear floor panel 12 may be provided with a displacement restricting portion.
- the shape of the displacement restricting portion can be changed as appropriate.
- the displacement restricting portion provided on the seat cushion frame of the front seat is configured to face or abut against the dilatant member from the inside in the vehicle width direction.
- FIG. 8 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a configuration of peripheral members including a part of a seat cushion 16 constituting a rear seat as a vehicle seat according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention.
- This embodiment has basically the same configuration as that of the first embodiment, but the seat cushion 16 is provided with a dilatant member 80 having a configuration different from that of the dilatant member 46 according to the first embodiment. Has been.
- the dilatant member 80 is formed in a long bar shape from the same material as the dilatant member 46 and is embedded in the seat cushion pad 40.
- One end of the dilatant member 80 in the longitudinal direction is disposed on the lower side of the seat cushion main body 16B, and abuts against a reinforcing bracket 82 fixed to the rear floor panel 12.
- the other end in the longitudinal direction of the dilatant member 80 is disposed on the upper side of the side support portion 16A, and is disposed close to the side surface of the side support portion 16A on the rear side door 30 side.
- the dilatant member 80 in which one end in the longitudinal direction is disposed on the side of the rear side door 30 in the side support portion 16A. Is added, and the dilatant member 80 is cured.
- the dilatant member 80 is restricted from moving inward in the vehicle width direction by contacting the reinforcing bracket 82 fixed to the rear floor panel 12 at the other end in the longitudinal direction. For this reason, when the dilatant member 80 is stretched between the reinforcing bracket 82 and the door trim 32, deformation of the seat cushion 16 is suppressed.

Abstract
Description
以下、図1~図4を参照して、本発明の第1の実施形態に係る車両用シートとしてのリヤシート10について説明する。なお、各図中に適宜示される矢印FRは、車両前方側を示し、矢印UPは車両上方側を示し、矢印INは、車両幅方向内側を示している。また、本実施形態では、リヤシート10の前方向、上方向、幅方向は、車両の前方向、上方向、幅方向と一致している。
上記構成のリヤシート10では、車両が側面衝突すると、シートクッション16におけるサイドサポート部16Aの上方で、着座乗員14の腰部とリヤサイドドア30との間へリヤサイドエアバッグ28が膨張展開する。また、側面衝突の衝撃荷重F(図3参照)によってリヤサイドドア30のドアトリム32がサイドサポート部16Aに衝突すると、当該サイドサポート部16Aに配設されたダイラタント部材46が瞬時に硬化する。このダイラタント部材46は、優れたエネルギ吸収性能を発揮する。しかも、硬化したダイラタント部材46によって、サイドサポート部16Aの変形が抑制されるので、サイドサポート部16Aが上方側へ変形(膨出)することを抑制できる。
