Abstract

In the present invention, a vehicle body includes a side sill having a portion that is connected by overlapping a plurality of plates, wherein provided is a technology for improving the appearance of the lower edge of a door opening and improving the sealing characteristics of the area surrounding the door opening. In an area of a side sill (12) positioned in a door opening (15), a step garnish (50) is provided that covers at least a portion of such area. The step garnish (50) is formed of a hard resin garnish main body (51) and a soft resin garnish end part (52). The garnish main body (51) covers from the upper surface (36) of the side sill (12) through a lateral surface (38) that includes a sealing contact part (46). The garnish end part (52) is integrally formed with an end of the garnish main body (51) in the vehicle body front-back direction, and covers at least the sealing contact part (46). The thickness of the garnish end part (52) gradually decreases from the proximal end formed integrally with the garnish main body (51) towards the distal end.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an improvement in the technique of covering the lower edge of a door opening formed on a vehicle body side with a step trim. Background technique [0002] A door opening that is opened and closed by a side door is formed in a side portion of a vehicle body of an ordinary vehicle such as a passenger car. The height of the lower edge of the door opening is set very low to facilitate the passengers to get on and off the car. For example, the lower edge of the door opening is formed by the upper surface of the side sill. The structure of the side sill is known as disclosed in Patent Document 1, for example. In addition, a technique for covering the lower edge of a door opening with a pedal trim is known, for example, as disclosed in Patent Document 2. [0003] In order to improve the quality and reduce the weight, the vehicle body disclosed in Patent Document 1 is composed of different plate materials for each part, and ...
