Description

車両用フードVehicle hood
 本発明は、アウターパネルと、アウターパネルの周囲端部に接合されるインナーパネルとを具備する車両用フードに関する。 The present invention relates to a vehicle hood including an outer panel and an inner panel joined to a peripheral end portion of the outer panel.
 従来、車両用フード(ボンネット,エンジンフード)のインナーパネルを畝(うね)状に隆起した形状にすることで、剛性を確保しつつ歩行者保護性能を向上させたフード構造が知られている。例えば、車幅方向に延設された隆起部をインナーパネルに形成し、隆起部の頂面をアウターパネルに対して接着固定することで、フードに入力された荷重(衝撃エネルギー)の吸収性能を改善させて歩行者保護性能を向上させるものである。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a hood structure that improves pedestrian protection performance while ensuring rigidity by making an inner panel of a vehicle hood (bonnet, engine hood) rise like a ridge is known. . For example, by forming a raised portion that extends in the vehicle width direction on the inner panel and bonding and fixing the top surface of the raised portion to the outer panel, it is possible to absorb the load (impact energy) input to the hood. It improves and improves pedestrian protection performance.
 フードに入力された荷重は、フード(おもにアウターパネル)が車内側へと変形することで吸収されるため、フードが変形しにくい位置に荷重が入力された場合(例えば歩行者の頭部が衝突した場合)には、その荷重が吸収されにくく、歩行者保護性能が低下するおそれがある。これに対し、特許文献1の車体構造には、フードが変形しにくい位置(フードの車内側への変形を妨げる障害物の近傍)に入力された荷重を、障害物から所定距離離れた部分に分散するブラケットがインナーパネルに設けられている。 The load input to the hood is absorbed when the hood (mainly the outer panel) is deformed to the inside of the vehicle, so when the load is input at a position where the hood is difficult to deform (for example, a pedestrian's head collides ), The load is difficult to be absorbed, and the pedestrian protection performance may be reduced. On the other hand, in the vehicle body structure of Patent Document 1, a load input to a position where the hood is difficult to deform (in the vicinity of an obstacle that prevents the hood from deforming to the inside of the vehicle) is applied to a portion that is a predetermined distance away from the obstacle. Dispersing brackets are provided on the inner panel.
特開2006-306237号公報JP 2006-306237 A
 しかしながら、上記の特許文献1の構造では、障害物の位置に対応させて複数箇所にブラケットを配置する必要があり、部品点数の増加は避けられない。
 また、上記のようにインナーパネルの形状が複雑である場合には、アウターパネルとインナーパネルとの間の空間が荷重の入力方向において狭い位置が生じる。この位置に荷重が入力されると、アウターパネルの変形代を十分に確保することができないため、歩行者保護性能を向上させることが難しい。
However, in the structure of the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, it is necessary to arrange brackets at a plurality of locations corresponding to the positions of obstacles, and an increase in the number of parts is inevitable.
Further, when the shape of the inner panel is complicated as described above, a position where the space between the outer panel and the inner panel is narrow in the load input direction is generated. If a load is input at this position, it is difficult to improve the pedestrian protection performance because the deformation of the outer panel cannot be secured sufficiently.
 特に、フードがアルミ材によって形成されている場合には、フードの重量が軽いうえにヤング率が低いことから、例えば鉄製のフードと比較して荷重の吸収性能が低い。そのため、アルミ材のフードの場合には、アウターパネルとインナーパネルとの間の限られた空間において、歩行者保護性能を向上させることはより一層難しい。 Especially, when the hood is made of an aluminum material, the weight of the hood is light and the Young's modulus is low. Therefore, the load absorption performance is lower than that of, for example, an iron hood. Therefore, in the case of an aluminum hood, it is even more difficult to improve the pedestrian protection performance in a limited space between the outer panel and the inner panel.
 本件の車両用フードは、このような課題に鑑み案出されたもので、部品点数の増加を抑制しつつ歩行者保護性能を向上させることを目的の一つとする。なお、この目的に限らず、後述する発明を実施するための形態に示す各構成により導かれる作用効果であって、従来の技術によっては得られない作用効果を奏することも本件の他の目的である。 The vehicle hood of the present invention has been devised in view of such problems, and one of its purposes is to improve pedestrian protection performance while suppressing an increase in the number of parts.

"Right part 30R"). The left part 30L and the right part 30R extend along the outer shape of the hood 1 as shown in FIG.
 図1~図3に示すように、外側前足部31及び外側後足部32は、本体部30に対し車両外側(本体部30の左右それぞれ)において車両外側に向かって突設されるとともに、前後に間隔をあけて配置される。本実施形態では、外側前足部31が上面視で各ヘッドランプ5の直後方に設けられ、外側後足部32が外側前足部31よりも後方かつ外側に設けられる。内側後足部33は、本体部30に対し車両内側に位置し外側前足部31よりも後方(本体部30のうち後方の部位における左右それぞれ)に設けられ、車両内側に向かって突設される。また、中央足部34は、本体部30の後縁から後方に向かって突設されており、車幅方向に四つ並設される。 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the outer front foot portion 31 and the outer rear foot portion 32 protrude from the main body portion 30 toward the vehicle outer side on the vehicle outer side (left and right of the main body portion 30). Are arranged at intervals. In the present embodiment, the outer forefoot portion 31 is provided immediately after each headlamp 5 in a top view, and the outer rear foot portion 32 is provided behind and outside the outer forefoot portion 31. The inner rear foot part 33 is located on the vehicle inner side with respect to the main body part 30 and is provided behind the outer front foot part 31 (left and right in the rear part of the main body part 30) and protrudes toward the inner side of the vehicle. . Further, the central foot portion 34 protrudes rearward from the rear edge of the main body portion 30 and is arranged in parallel in the vehicle width direction.
 本実施形態の外側後足部32及び内側後足部33は、左部30Lの延設方向(すなわち左斜め後方)に延びる外縁のうち、車両外側及び車両内側のそれぞれに設けられるとともに右部30Rの延設方向(すなわち右斜め後方)に延びる外縁のうち、車両外側及び車両内側のそれぞれに設けられる。すなわち、左右の外側後足部32及び内側後足部33はいずれも、本体部30(左部30L,右部30R)を挟んで対向配置される。外側後足部32及び内側後足部33の前後寸法は略同等であり、外側前足部31よりも大きい。 The outer hind leg portion 32 and the inner hind foot portion 33 of the present embodiment are provided on the vehicle outer side and the vehicle inner side, respectively, of the outer edges extending in the extending direction of the left portion 30L (that is, diagonally rearward to the left) and the right portion 30R. Among the outer edges extending in the extending direction (ie, diagonally rightward rearward), the outer side and the inner side of the vehicle are provided. In other words, the left and right outer hind legs 32 and the inner hind legs 33 are both opposed to each other with the main body 30 (left part 30L, right part 30R) interposed therebetween. The front and rear dimensions of the outer rear foot portion 32 and the inner rear foot portion 33 are substantially the same and are larger than those of the outer front foot portion 31.
 図4,図5(a)及び図6(a)に示すように、外側前足部31,外側後足部32及び中央足部34は、本体部30の外縁のうちアウターパネル1に沿った部分からインナーパネル2に向かって(すなわち下方へ)屈曲形成されることで本体部30から突設され、その先端部がインナーパネル2に固定される。なお、内側後足部33の断面図は省略しているが、他の足部31,32,34と同様に構成される。 As shown in FIGS. 4, 5 (a) and 6 (a), the outer front foot portion 31, the outer rear foot portion 32 and the central foot portion 34 are portions of the outer edge of the main body portion 30 along the outer panel 1. Is bent from the body panel 30 toward the inner panel 2 (that is, downward), and protrudes from the main body portion 30, and the tip portion thereof is fixed to the inner panel 2. In addition, although the cross-sectional view of the inner rear foot portion 33 is omitted, it is configured in the same manner as the other foot portions 31, 32, 34.
 外側前足部31には、図5(a)に示すようにインナーパネル2に向かって(すなわち下に)凸となるように屈曲形成された第一折れ部31aが設けられる。フード10の前側に荷重が入力された場合には、図5(b)中に太矢印で示すように、第一折れ部31aが変形の起点となり、外側前足部31が下に凸となるように折れ曲がる。これにより、図5(b)中に太破線で示すように、アウターパネル1及び補強部材3の本体部30が一体となって下方へと変形する。 As shown in FIG. 5A, the outer forefoot portion 31 is provided with a first bent portion 31a that is bent so as to be convex toward the inner panel 2 (that is, downward). When a load is input to the front side of the hood 10, as shown by a thick arrow in FIG. 5B, the first bent portion 31a becomes a starting point of deformation, and the outer forefoot portion 31 protrudes downward. Bend to. Thereby, as shown with a thick broken line in FIG.5 (b), the main body part 30 of the outer panel 1 and the reinforcement member 3 deform | transforms below integrally.
 また、図6(a)に示すように、本体部30及び外側後足部32の境界及びその近傍には、アウターパネル1に向かって(すなわち上に)凸となるように屈曲形成された第二折れ部32a,32bが設けられる。フード10の前後方向中央付近や後側に荷重が入力された場合には、図6(b)中に太破線で示すように、車両外側に位置する一方の第二折れ部32aがあることで、車両内側に位置する他方の第二折れ部32bが下方へと変形することとなり、突っ張る部分が第二折れ部32aよりも車両外側へ移動する。これにより、アウターパネル1及び補強部材3の本体部30がより一層広い領域で一体となって下方へと変形する。このように、第一折れ部31a及び第二折れ部32a,32bによって、互いに異なる変形(挙動)を実現する。 Further, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), the boundary between the main body portion 30 and the outer rear foot portion 32 and its vicinity are bent so as to protrude toward the outer panel 1 (that is, upward). Two folded portions 32a and 32b are provided. When a load is input near the center in the front-rear direction of the hood 10 or on the rear side, as shown by a thick broken line in FIG. 6B, there is one second folding portion 32a located outside the vehicle. The other second folding part 32b located inside the vehicle is deformed downward, and the portion to be stretched moves to the vehicle outer side than the second folding part 32a. As a result, the outer panel 1 and the main body 30 of the reinforcing member 3 are integrally deformed in a wider area and deformed downward. Thus, mutually different deformation | transformation (behavior) is implement | achieved by the 1st folding part 31a and the 2nd folding parts 32a and 32b.
 さらに、本実施形態の足部31~34には、図3,図7(a)及び(b)に示すように、足部31~34の突設方向に沿って延びる両端部がアウターパネル1側へ屈曲又は湾曲形成されるとともにその先端が当該端部の屈曲方向と反対向きに屈曲形成された略クランク状のフランジ31f~34fが設けられる。すなわち、本実施形態のフランジ31f~34fは、足部31~34の突設方向に直交する方向の断面形状が略ハット型となるように形成されている。フランジ31f~34fにより、足部31~34の剛性が高まり、アウターパネル1から補強部材3に伝わった荷重がインナーパネル1へと伝達されやすくなる。なお、フランジ31f~34fは足部31~34の剛性向上を図る部位であることから、その形状は剛性を高められる形状であればよく、上記した形状に限られない。例えば、足部31~34の突設方向に沿って延びる両端部の屈曲方向(又は湾曲方向)と、その先端の屈曲方向が同一方向や交差方向であってもよい。また、フランジ31f~34fの形状が互いに同一でなくてもよい。 Further, as shown in FIGS. 3, 7A and 7B, the foot portions 31 to 34 of the present embodiment have both end portions extending along the projecting direction of the foot portions 31 to 34 as the outer panel 1. There are provided substantially crank-shaped flanges 31f to 34f which are bent or curved to the side and whose tip is bent in the direction opposite to the bending direction of the end. That is, the flanges 31f to 34f of the present embodiment are formed so that the cross-sectional shape in a direction orthogonal to the protruding direction of the foot portions 31 to 34 is a substantially hat shape. The flanges 31f to 34f increase the rigidity of the foot portions 31 to 34, and the load transmitted from the outer panel 1 to the reinforcing member 3 is easily transmitted to the inner panel 1. Since the flanges 31f to 34f are parts for improving the rigidity of the foot portions 31 to 34, the shape thereof is not limited to the above-described shape as long as the rigidity can be increased. For example, the bending direction (or bending direction) of both ends extending along the projecting direction of the foot portions 31 to 34 and the bending direction of the tip thereof may be the same direction or the intersecting direction. Further, the shapes of the flanges 31f to 34f may not be the same.
 図2及び図3に示すように、本実施形態の本体部30には、複数の長孔が穿設される。具体的には、本体部30は、左部30L及び右部30Rにおける中央部30C寄りの位置にそれぞれ配置された縦孔35(長孔)と、中央部30Cに配置された複数の横孔36(長孔)とを有する。縦孔35は前後方向に延びる貫通孔であり、横孔36は車幅方向に延びる貫通孔である。本実施形態の本体部30には、前後方向に四つの横孔36が並設されており、この列が左右方向に三つ設けられる。なお、12個の横孔36のうち前から二番目に位置する左右の横孔36は、同列の他の横孔36よりも車幅方向外側の端部が外側へ延長されている。以下、長い二つの横孔36を特に区別する場合には、符号36aを付す。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the main body 30 of the present embodiment has a plurality of long holes. Specifically, the main body 30 includes a vertical hole 35 (long hole) disposed at a position near the central portion 30C in the left portion 30L and the right portion 30R, and a plurality of horizontal holes 36 disposed in the central portion 30C. (Long hole). The vertical hole 35 is a through hole extending in the front-rear direction, and the horizontal hole 36 is a through hole extending in the vehicle width direction. In the main body portion 30 of the present embodiment, four horizontal holes 36 are provided side by side in the front-rear direction, and three rows are provided in the left-right direction. Of the twelve horizontal holes 36, the left and right horizontal holes 36 positioned second from the front extend outward in the vehicle width direction from the other horizontal holes 36 in the same row. Hereinafter, in order to particularly distinguish the two long horizontal holes 36, reference numeral 36a is given.
 本実施形態の補強部材3は、長い二つの横孔36aと二つの縦孔35とによって、本体部30における荷重の伝達経路(伝達エリア)が四つに区画されている。すなわち、左の縦孔35よりも左側(外側)のエリアと、右の縦孔35よりも右側のエリアと、左右の縦孔35間であって横孔36aよりも後側のエリアと、横孔36aよりも前側のエリアとに分けられる。これにより、荷重が入力されたエリアから他のエリアへの荷重の伝達が遮断されるとともに、補強部材3の内折れ(下に凸となる変形)が促進される。 In the reinforcing member 3 of the present embodiment, the load transmission path (transmission area) in the main body 30 is divided into four by two long horizontal holes 36a and two vertical holes 35. That is, an area on the left side (outside) of the left vertical hole 35, an area on the right side of the right vertical hole 35, an area between the left and right vertical holes 35 and behind the horizontal hole 36a, It is divided into an area in front of the hole 36a. Thereby, the transmission of the load from the area where the load is input to the other area is blocked, and the inward folding (deformation that protrudes downward) of the reinforcing member 3 is promoted.
 なお、本実施形態の長孔35,36は、図4,図5(a)及び図6(a)に示すように、その縁が下方へと湾曲形成されている。これにより、長孔35,36での変形を促進しつつ、過度な荷重吸収性能の低下を抑制している。なお、縁の形状は図示したものに限られず、例えば縁が下方へと湾曲したのち、対向する縁に向かってさらに湾曲した形状(縁にフランジを設けた形状)であってもよい。 In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, FIG. 5 (a) and FIG. 6 (a), the edge of the long holes 35 and 36 of this embodiment is curving downward. This suppresses an excessive decrease in load absorption performance while promoting deformation in the long holes 35 and 36. Note that the shape of the edge is not limited to the illustrated shape, and may be a shape (a shape in which a flange is provided on the edge) that is further curved toward the opposite edge after the edge is curved downward, for example.
[2.作用,効果]

 (1)上述したフード10は、アウターパネル1及びインナーパネル2の間に車幅方向に延在する補強部材3を備えるため、フード10(アウターパネル1)に対して荷重が入力された場合に、アウターパネル1と補強部材3とが一体となって変形する。この補強部材3は、本体部30の外縁のうちアウターパネル1に沿う部分から突設された複数の足部(本実施形態では足部31~34)を有しており、各足部はインナーパネル2に固定されるため、フード10(アウターパネル1)に対して入力された荷重が補強部材3を介してインナーパネル2へと伝達される。さらに足部には、いずれも本体部30に対し車両外側及び車両内側のそれぞれに配置された外側前足部31,外側後足部32及び内側後足部33が含まれるため、フード10のどの位置に荷重が入力された場合であっても、その荷重が補強部材3を介してインナーパネル2へと伝達される。
[2. Action, effect]

(1) Since the hood 10 described above includes the reinforcing member 3 extending in the vehicle width direction between the outer panel 1 and the inner panel 2, when a load is input to the hood 10 (outer panel 1). The outer panel 1 and the reinforcing member 3 are integrally deformed. The reinforcing member 3 has a plurality of foot portions (foot portions 31 to 34 in this embodiment) projecting from a portion along the outer panel 1 of the outer edge of the main body portion 30, and each foot portion is an inner portion. Since it is fixed to the panel 2, the load input to the hood 10 (outer panel 1) is transmitted to the inner panel 2 through the reinforcing member 3. Further, since the foot portion includes an outer front foot portion 31, an outer rear foot portion 32, and an inner rear foot portion 33, which are disposed on the vehicle outer side and the vehicle inner side with respect to the main body portion 30, respectively, Even when a load is input to the inner panel 2, the load is transmitted to the inner panel 2 through the reinforcing member 3.
 したがって、上述したフード10によれば、フード10に対して荷重が入力された初期段階で、より大きな荷重を吸収することができるとともに、入力された荷重をインナーパネル2へと伝達させることができる。このため、アウターパネル1とインナーパネル2との間の空間(変形代)を大きくとることができない場合であっても、歩行者頭部の傷害値を低減でき、歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる。また、補強部材3の追加のみで済むことから、部品点数の増加を抑制することができる。 Therefore, according to the hood 10 described above, it is possible to absorb a larger load and transmit the input load to the inner panel 2 at an initial stage when the load is input to the hood 10. . For this reason, even if it is a case where the space (deformation allowance) between the outer panel 1 and the inner panel 2 cannot be taken large, the injury value of a pedestrian head can be reduced and pedestrian protection performance is improved. Can do. Moreover, since only the reinforcement member 3 needs to be added, an increase in the number of parts can be suppressed.
 なお、本実施形態のように、補強部材3がフードロックリンフォースのアッパー部材を車幅方向に拡張して構成されている場合には、部品点数の増加を防止することができる。また、上記の補強部材3により荷重の吸収性能を高めることができるため、アウターパネル1及びインナーパネル2をアルミ材によって形成することが可能となり、フード10の重量を低減することもできる。さらに、補強部材3によってフード10の張り剛性をも向上させることができる。 In addition, when the reinforcing member 3 is configured by extending the upper member of the hood lock reinforcement in the vehicle width direction as in the present embodiment, an increase in the number of parts can be prevented. Moreover, since the load absorbing performance can be enhanced by the reinforcing member 3, the outer panel 1 and the inner panel 2 can be formed of an aluminum material, and the weight of the hood 10 can be reduced. Further, the reinforcing member 3 can improve the tension rigidity of the hood 10.
 (2)上述したフード10によれば、補強部材3の左右端部が、左右のヘッドランプ5のそれぞれと前後方向で重なる位置に配置されているため、ヘッドランプ5の上部(上面視でヘッドランプ5の直後方)に荷重が入力された場合にも補強部材3がアウターパネル1と一体となって変形し、荷重を吸収することができる。これにより、ヘッドランプ5の上部での歩行者頭部の傷害値をも低減でき、歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる。 (2) According to the hood 10 described above, the left and right end portions of the reinforcing member 3 are arranged at positions overlapping the left and right headlamps 5 in the front-rear direction. Even when a load is input to the side immediately after the lamp 5, the reinforcing member 3 is deformed integrally with the outer panel 1 and can absorb the load. Thereby, the injury value of the pedestrian head in the upper part of the headlamp 5 can also be reduced, and pedestrian protection performance can be improved.
 (3)上述した補強部材3の外側前足部31には第一折れ部31aが設けられているため、フード10の前側に荷重が入力された場合に、第一折れ部31aを起点にして外側前足部31が下に凸となるように変形する。つまり、上述したフード10によれば、補強部材3の変形を促進することができ、図5(b)中に太破線で示すように、アウターパネル1と補強部材3とを一体で下方へと変形させて荷重を吸収することができるため、歩行者保護性能をより向上させることができる。 (3) Since the first bent portion 31a is provided in the outer forefoot portion 31 of the reinforcing member 3 described above, when a load is input to the front side of the hood 10, the outer side starts from the first bent portion 31a. It deform | transforms so that the forefoot part 31 may become convex below. That is, according to the hood 10 described above, the deformation of the reinforcing member 3 can be promoted, and the outer panel 1 and the reinforcing member 3 are integrally moved downward as shown by a thick broken line in FIG. Since the load can be absorbed by being deformed, the pedestrian protection performance can be further improved.
 (4)上述した補強部材3の本体部30と外側後足部32との境界には第二折れ部32a,32bが設けられているため、フード10の前後方向中央付近や後側に荷重が入力された場合に、アウターパネル1と補強部材3の本体部30とが図6(b)中に太破線で示すように変形する。つまり、上述したフード10によれば、補強部材3の変形を促進することができ、図6(b)中に太破線で示すように、アウターパネル1と補強部材3の本体部30とをより一層広い領域で一体となって下方へと変形させて荷重を吸収することができるため、歩行者保護性能をより向上させることができる。 (4) Since the second folding portions 32a and 32b are provided at the boundary between the main body portion 30 and the outer rear foot portion 32 of the reinforcing member 3 described above, a load is applied to the vicinity of the center of the hood 10 in the front-rear direction and the rear side. When input, the outer panel 1 and the main body 30 of the reinforcing member 3 are deformed as indicated by a thick broken line in FIG. That is, according to the hood 10 described above, the deformation of the reinforcing member 3 can be promoted, and the outer panel 1 and the main body portion 30 of the reinforcing member 3 are further connected as shown by a thick broken line in FIG. Since the load can be absorbed by integrally deforming in a wider area, the pedestrian protection performance can be further improved.
 (5)上述した補強部材3の足部31~34にはフランジ31f~34fが設けられるため、足部31~34の剛性を高めることができる。これにより、アウターパネル1から補強部材3に伝わった荷重がインナーパネル2へと伝達されやすくなるため、フード10に入力された荷重をより吸収することができ、歩行者保護性能をさらに向上せることができる。 (5) Since the legs 31 to 34 of the reinforcing member 3 are provided with the flanges 31f to 34f, the rigidity of the legs 31 to 34 can be increased. Thereby, since the load transmitted from the outer panel 1 to the reinforcing member 3 is easily transmitted to the inner panel 2, the load input to the hood 10 can be absorbed more, and the pedestrian protection performance can be further improved. Can do.
 (6)また、上述したフード10では、本体部30が中央部30C,左部30L及び右部30Rを有するため、ヘッドランプ5間に荷重が加わったときは中央部30Cで荷重を受け止めることができ、ヘッドランプ5の上部に荷重が加わったときは左部30L又は右部30Rで荷重を受け止めることができる。さらに、左部30L及び右部30Rは中央部30Cよりも後方まで延設されているため、ヘッドランプ5の上部の広い範囲において、荷重の吸収性能を向上させることができる。つまり、上述したフード10によれば、フード10の広い範囲で歩行者頭部の傷害値を低減することができ、歩行者保護性能をさらに向上せることができる。 (6) Further, in the hood 10 described above, since the main body portion 30 has the central portion 30C, the left portion 30L, and the right portion 30R, when a load is applied between the headlamps 5, the load can be received at the central portion 30C. When the load is applied to the upper portion of the headlamp 5, the load can be received at the left portion 30L or the right portion 30R. Furthermore, since the left portion 30L and the right portion 30R are extended to the rear of the central portion 30C, the load absorption performance can be improved in a wide range above the headlamp 5. That is, according to the hood 10 described above, the injury value of the pedestrian head can be reduced in a wide range of the hood 10, and the pedestrian protection performance can be further improved.
 (7)上述したフード10では、外側後足部32及び内側後足部33が、本体部30の外縁のうち、左部30L及び右部30Rの各延設方向に延びる車両外側及び車両内側のそれぞれに設けられ、外側前足部31が上面視で各ヘッドランプ5の直後方に設けられる。このため、ヘッドランプ5の上部に荷重が加わった場合に、左部30L又は右部30Rで受け止めた荷重を、足部31~33を介してインナーパネル2へと伝達することができ、歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる。 (7) In the hood 10 described above, the outer rear foot portion 32 and the inner rear foot portion 33 are arranged on the vehicle outer side and the vehicle inner side extending in the extending directions of the left part 30L and the right part 30R among the outer edges of the main body part 30. The outer forefoot portions 31 are respectively provided immediately after the headlamps 5 in a top view. For this reason, when a load is applied to the upper portion of the headlamp 5, the load received by the left portion 30L or the right portion 30R can be transmitted to the inner panel 2 via the foot portions 31 to 33. Protection performance can be improved.
 (8)上述したフード10では、左部30L及び右部30Rにおける中央部30C寄りの位置に縦孔35がそれぞれ穿設されているため、補強部材3の内側部分(すなわち中央部30C)と外側部分(すなわち左部30L及び右部30R)とで荷重経路を遮断することができる。これにより、ヘッドランプ5間に加わった荷重は中央部30Cの変形により受け止めることができ、ヘッドランプ5の上部に加わった荷重は左部30L又は右部30Rの変形で受け止めることができるため、フード10への荷重の入力位置にかかわらず荷重を吸収することができ、歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる。 (8) In the hood 10 described above, since the vertical holes 35 are formed at positions near the central portion 30C in the left portion 30L and the right portion 30R, the inner portion (that is, the central portion 30C) and the outer side of the reinforcing member 3 are formed. The load path can be blocked by the portion (that is, the left portion 30L and the right portion 30R). Thereby, the load applied between the headlamps 5 can be received by deformation of the central portion 30C, and the load applied to the upper portion of the headlamp 5 can be received by deformation of the left portion 30L or the right portion 30R. The load can be absorbed regardless of the input position of the load to 10, and the pedestrian protection performance can be improved.
 (9)上述したフード10では、中央部30Cに複数の横孔36が穿孔されているため、中央部30Cに荷重が加わったときの変形を促進することができ、歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる。
 (10)さらに、補強部材3に形成された長孔35,36の縁は下方へ湾曲形成されているため、荷重が入力されたときの補強部材30の変形を促進しつつ、伝達される荷重の低下を抑制することができ、歩行者保護性能を向上させることができる。
(9) In the hood 10 described above, since the plurality of lateral holes 36 are perforated in the central portion 30C, deformation when a load is applied to the central portion 30C can be promoted, and pedestrian protection performance is improved. be able to.
(10) Furthermore, since the edges of the long holes 35 and 36 formed in the reinforcing member 3 are curved downward, the load transmitted while promoting the deformation of the reinforcing member 30 when a load is input. Can be suppressed, and pedestrian protection performance can be improved.

The structure of the hood 10 described above is an example, and is not limited to the above. For example, the shapes of the outer panel 1, the inner panel 2, and the reinforcing member 3 may not be illustrated. The reinforcing member 3 only needs to extend in the vehicle width direction at least between the outer panel 1 and the inner panel 2, and the main body 30 is also arranged along the outer panel 1 in a non-contact state with the outer panel 1. Just do it. That is, the left part 30L and the right part 30R of the main body part 30 do not have to be extended to the rear of the central part 30C, and are constituted by three parts of the central part 30C, the left part 30L, and the right part 30R. It doesn't have to be a thing. Further, the shapes and positions of the vertical holes 35 and the horizontal holes 36 may not be those described above, and the long holes 35 and 36 may be omitted.

For example, the outer forefoot portion 31 may be curved so as to protrude downward instead of the first bent portion 31a, or may be formed in a straight line by omitting the first bent portion 31a. . Moreover, the boundary part of the main-body part 30 and the outer side hind leg part 32 may be curvedly formed so that it may protrude upward instead of the 2nd bending parts 32a and 32b. Note that only one second folded portion may be provided.
 また、各足部31~34のフランジ31f~34fを省略してもよい。なお、補強部材3の本体部30が、上記の中央部30C,左部30L及び右部30Rの三つの部位を有するものでない場合には、少なくとも、外側前足部及び外側後足部が、本体部に対し車両外側に位置し車両外側に向かって突設されるとともに前後に間隔をあけて配置されていればよく、内側後足部が本体部に対し車両内側に位置し外側前足部よりも後方において車両内側に向かって突設されていればよい。なお、足部には、少なくとも外側前足部,外側後足部及び内側後足部が含まれていればよく、上記の中央足部34を省略してもよいし、上記の足部31~34以外の足部が含まれていてもよい。 Further, the flanges 31f to 34f of the foot portions 31 to 34 may be omitted. In addition, when the main body part 30 of the reinforcing member 3 does not have the three parts of the center part 30C, the left part 30L, and the right part 30R, at least the outer front foot part and the outer rear foot part are the main body part. As long as it is located outside the vehicle and protrudes toward the outside of the vehicle and is spaced apart from the front and rear, the inner rear foot is located on the inner side of the vehicle with respect to the main body and is behind the outer front foot. In this case, it is only necessary to project toward the inside of the vehicle. The foot portion only needs to include at least the outer front foot portion, the outer rear foot portion, and the inner rear foot portion, and the central foot portion 34 may be omitted or the foot portions 31 to 34 may be omitted.
