Embodiment Construction

[0019] An embodiment of a vehicle engine cover structure of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 10 .

[0020] Note that in the drawings, the arrow UP represents the upward direction of the vehicle, the arrow FR represents the forward direction of the vehicle, and the arrow IN represents the direction toward the interior of the vehicle in the lateral direction of the vehicle.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 2 , a rear end 12A of a hood 12 constituting a front top surface of a vehicle body 10 of the automobile in this embodiment extends below a lower portion (lower end portion) 14A of a windshield 14 .

[0022] As shown in FIG. 1 , the hood 12 has an inner panel 18 located at the inner side (back side) of the outer panel 16 . A closed section 20 is formed in the vehicle transverse direction at the rear of the bonnet 12 by the outer panel 16 and the inner panel 18 .

[0023] As seen in a side view, the rear portion 22 of the inner panel 18 forming the ...

Abstract

A hood is configured to have a closed cross section formed by an outer panel and an inner panel in the rear along the vehicle width direction, and to use a portion ahead of the rear end of the hood, which makes the rear end part of the closed cross section, by a prescribed distance L as a fragile part of the rear end part in the hood. Furthermore, the lower part of the windshield glass is extended to a part in the lower part of the vehicle from an extension line of a straight line extending toward the rear end of the hood from the fragile part of the hood.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hood structure for a vehicle, and more particularly to a hood structure for a vehicle that protects an impact body when a vehicle such as an automobile is hit. Background technique [0002] In a vehicle hood structure suitable for a vehicle such as an automobile, a conventional structure is known in which an impact absorbing portion is provided above a hinge portion provided at a rear end portion of the hood, and the hinge portion is elastically The mounting portion is mounted to a vehicle body (vehicle body) as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication (JP-A) No. 2000-108842. [0003] However, in this vehicle hood structure, in the case where the impact body hits the rear end portion of the hood before the impact body hits the lower portion of the windshield (windshield), due to the reaction force of the rear end portion of the hood, the impact body Movement towards the windshield is greatly slowed down. As a result...
