Embodiment Construction

[0018] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the illustrated embodiments.

[0019] Figure 1 to Figure 4 A knee pad for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. In the drawings, the arrow Fr direction indicates the front of the vehicle.

[0020] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the knee pad 1 for a vehicle according to the embodiment of the present invention is a member provided for receiving the seat of an occupant sitting in a front seat (driver's seat, front passenger's seat) in a vehicle compartment at the time of a collision. The knee and is used to absorb the load acting on the knee through deformation. Such vehicle knee pads 1 are arranged on the inner lower side of the dashboard 2 in front of the front seats, corresponding to the occupant's knees, and arranged left and right at predetermined intervals in the vehicle width direction.

[0021] The vehicle knee pad 1 of the present embodiment is a...

Abstract

Vehicle knee pads. Prevent side-down during deformation that occurs while receiving a knee load when a vehicle collides, and improve the initial load-absorbing performance of the knee bolster. The knee pad is composed of a vehicle front portion 11 joined to the steering support member 3 and a vehicle rear portion 12 joined to the instrument panel 2. Both of the vehicle front portion 11 and the vehicle rear portion 12 include, An upper member 4 and a lower member 5 having a closed cross-section formed by engagement of the upper member 4 with the lower member 5.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a knee pad for vehicles. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, a knee pad (knee protector) having a function of receiving a knee load during a vehicle collision and absorbing an impact load through deformation is provided on the front side of the front seat of a vehicle (for example, see Patent Document 1). [0003] prior art literature [0004] patent documents [0005] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2004-106611 Contents of the invention [0006] The problem to be solved by the invention [0007] However, since the above-mentioned conventional knee pad for a vehicle is composed of a single channel member as one component part, it cannot receive a large knee load at the time of a vehicle collision, which causes a problem that the amount of knee advancement becomes large. Also, if the knee pad itself falls sideways due to the load on the knee or is deformed in the vehicle width direction ...
