摘要:
In an aspect, the invention is directed to a door assembly for a vehicle, that includes an outer panel, an inner panel and a carrier/intrusion member assembly. The outer panel and the inner panel are connected together to form a door panel structure, and together define a door cavity. The carrier/intrusion member assembly includes a carrier and an intrusion member connected to the carrier and mounted to the door panel structure. The carrier/intrusion member assembly further includes a plurality of door hardware components mounted to at least one of the carrier and the intrusion member. The hardware components extend into the door cavity.

A vehicle side door structure (10) is equipped with a door inner panel (30) disposed along a vehicle front and rear direction and a door outer panel (40) disposed on a vehicle width direction outer side of the door inner panel (30). An impact beam (50) is disposed between the door inner panel (30) and the door outer panel (40). The impact beam (50) is disposed in such a way that its lengthwise direction coincides with the vehicle front and rear direction. An impact beam extension (52) is disposed on a front end portion (50F) of the impact beam (50). The impact beam extension (52) is overlaid on a first opposing wall portion (34C) formed on a vehicle front and rear direction front end portion side of the door inner panel (30), is welded to the first opposing wall portion (34C). Furthermore, the impact beam extension (52) overlaps at least part of a through hole (36) serving as an example of a weak portion formed in a second opposing wall portion (32A) of the door inner panel (30) as seen from the outer side in the vehicle width direction.

To reduce the buckling of an attachment portion to assuredly provide desired reinforcing ability of a tubular portion, the attachment base 32 is raised to bring forward the contact surface 32f, forming the peripheral wall 38. This allows the impact beam 10 to be disposed in the vehicle so that the contact surface 32f closely contacts the mounting location 20 for the secure fastening of the impact beam 10 to the mounting location 20. The lateral edges of the attachment portion comprises the lateral flanges 40, 42 on the opposite sides of the peripheral wall 38, and the peripheral wall 38 and the lateral flanges 40, 42 together form the turnback portions 44, 46 on opposite sides of the attachment base 32, each turnback portions defining a concavity recessed from the contact surface 32f, and having a U-shaped section perpendicular to the centerline O of the tubular portion 12. This configuration provides an increased rigidity against external forces that have a component parallel to the length of the tubular portion 12 and reduce the buckling of the attachment portions 14, 16, thereby stably providing the desired reinforcing ability of the tubular portion 12.

摘要:
An automobile body structure that, when an automobile door receives a side collision load, restricts the entry of the door into the automobile interior and that can have such a function at low cost. In the automobile body structure, a side collision load (F) to an automobile door is transmitted to a load receiving member (20) of an automobile body via an impact beam (2) and a door box (4) of that door and is then transmitted from the load receiving member (20) to a cross-member (10). The load receiving member (20) is a straight linear tube body placed between left and right doors so as to extend in the lateral direction of the automobile. The load receiving member (20) is constructed from a load receiving tube (30) adapted so that it can transmit the collision load from the door box (4) of either of the doors to the door box of the other door, and also has connection sections (40) for supporting, near the left and right doors, the load receiving tube (30) and connecting the tube (30) to the cross-member.
摘要:
Using as a vehicle body reinforcing member any one of a bent tube with a partial bend of radius R, a tube with a plurality of portions that are bent at radius R, and a bent tube with mixed bends of inward and outward projection according to the present invention makes it possible, during a vehicle body collision, to absorb more energy than and exhibit better impact resistance than a vehicle body reinforcing member that uses one of a known straight tube and a curved tube of radius R entirely. Thus the dimensions (outside diameter, wall thickness) of the metal tube that is used as the vehicle body reinforcing member can be reduced, and the tube shape can be modified, while impact resistance is maintained. Modifying the shape in this manner makes it possible to provide the ever higher required level of vehicle body impact resistance at the same time that it reduces the weight of the vehicle body and lowers the cost. The present invention can therefore be widely used as an occupant protection technology.
