Problems solved by technology

[0005] In addition, the upper part of the rear edge of the front fender protrudes rearward and upward and is connected to the lower end of the front pillar upper member, but the protruding part is narrow in width, so it is difficult to provide other fixing parts for fixing to the body panel.
Therefore, there is a problem that if pressure is applied to the protruding portion of the front fender when wiping off wax or washing the car, it tends to bend inward, making it appear that the rigidity is low, resulting in a decrease in marketability.

[0049] First, the front-rear direction, the left-right direction (vehicle width direction), and the up-down direction in this specification are defined on the basis of an occupant seated on the driver's seat. In addition, the T surface, B surface, and H surface in this specification are defined as follows. Such as figure 2 As shown, the T surface refers to a surface perpendicular to the front-rear direction axis, for example, the front surface of the vehicle body or the rear surface of the vehicle body corresponds thereto. The B surface refers to a surface perpendicular to the left-right direction axis, for example, the left side of the vehicle body or the right side of the vehicle body corresponds thereto. The H plane refers to a plane perpendicular to the vertical axis, for example, a vehicle body roof surface or a vehicle body bottom surface corresponds thereto. However, the T surface includes a surface inclined at an angle of less than 45° with respect to the surface pe...

Abstract

A space between the trailing edge of a front fender and the outer surface of a front pillar lower in the vehicle width direction is covered with a synthetic resin enclosure inserted from the wheel housing side. The upper end of a main body of the enclosure is provided with an upper extending portion extending toward the lower end of the front pillar upper, and a reinforcing rib is formed on the outer surface of the upper extending portion so as to make the reinforcing rib in contact with the inner surface of a projecting portion of the front fender. A pressure applied to the projecting portion of the front fender is transmitted to the front pillar lower via the reinforcing rib, and thus the surface stiffness of the projecting portion of the front fender can be improved without adding a particular reinforcing member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vehicle body structure in which a gap formed between a rear edge of a front fender and an outer surface in the vehicle width direction of a front pillar lower member is closed by a synthetic resin cover inserted from a wheel well side. Background technique [0002] Such an automobile body structure is known from Patent Document 1 below. [0003] In this structure, the outer cover extension portion is extended forward from the front surface of the outer cover, and the fender panel surface reinforcement portion provided at the front end of the outer cover extension portion is fixed along the inner surface of the fender panel in the vehicle width direction. This increases the surface rigidity of the upper portion of the wheel arch flange of the fender panel. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-15834 [0005] In addition, the upper portion of the rear edge of the front fender protrudes upward ...
