Problems solved by technology

As such, when the opening is formed, the aerodynamic performance will be impaired, resulting in a decrease in fuel economy and deterioration of the noise outside the vehicle. Improvement of external noise
On the other hand, for example, it is conceivable to optimize the shape of the fender and the undercover so that the opening can be covered. Designing the optimum shape of the fender and the lower cover has the problem of greatly increasing the cost

Embodiment Construction

[0032]The oil pan guard of the present invention is installed, for example, in front and rear wheel drive vehicles capable of off-road driving and differential travel, but can also be installed in normal front and rear wheel drive vehicles, front wheel drive vehicles, and rear wheel drive vehicles. In addition, in addition to engine-driven vehicles equipped with gasoline engines and diesel engines, it can also be applied to various types of electric vehicles that run using electric motors as drive power sources, hybrid vehicles equipped with engines and electric motors as drive power sources, etc. kinds of vehicles. The oil pan is installed, for example, at the lower part of a power transmission device such as a transmission, and contains working oil for speed change control, lubrication, etc., but it may also be an oil pan that holds working oil for cooling an electric motor, and can be applied to various oils. plate.

Abstract

The present invention provides an oil pan guard for a vehicle. By simply blocking the opening near the fender, the increase in cost can be suppressed and the aerodynamic performance of the floor part can be improved, fuel economy can be improved and exterior noise can be reduced. In such a way that the opening formed between the pair of mounting parts protruding from the fender toward the rear side of the vehicle is closed, the cover panel independent of the fender and the fender are attached to the beam through the mounting part, so that the floor can be improved. Part of the aerodynamic performance and improve fuel economy, and can reduce exterior noise. In this case, since the cover panel and the fender panel independent of the fender panel are attached together using the mounting part, the conventional fender panel can be used as it is as the fender panel, and it is only necessary to prepare a cover panel of an appropriate shape according to the type of vehicle. Cost increase can be suppressed to the minimum necessary, and fuel economy and exterior noise can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an oil pan guard for a vehicle, and particularly relates to a technique for improving fuel economy and reducing exterior noise by improving the aerodynamic performance of a floor portion by a simple method. Background technique [0002] There is known an oil pan guard for a vehicle in which a guard plate is arranged below the oil pan in order to protect an oil pan containing operating oil from impact from below, and the guard plate is attached to the oil pan through a mounting portion. support member. An example of the device described in Patent Document 1 relates to a front and rear wheel drive vehicle in which a transfer case is provided on the output side of a longitudinal transmission. The frame such as the housing or beam of the unit protects the oil pan and its receiving parts from contact with the road surface (rocks, etc.) and damage from flying stones when driving on poor roads or off-road roads. In this pate...
