Embodiment Construction

[0036] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] Figures 1 to 5 A vehicle (automobile) center pillar structure is shown, including an outer panel 1 , an inner panel (center pillar inner panel) 2 , a first reinforcement member 3 , a second reinforcement member 4 , and a center pillar trim 5 . The central pillar has a configuration in which the outer panel 1, the inner panel 2, the first reinforcement member 3, the second reinforcement member 4, and the intermediate pillar modification 5 extend in an obliquely vertical direction so that the upper end is more dense than the lower end. Slightly closer to the rear of the vehicle. The middle pillar modification 5 includes a lower modification 5A and an upper modification 5B separated from each other. Such as figure 2 As shown, the upper end-side joining portion R1 of the lower modification 5A is joined to the lower end-side joining portion R2 ...
