Embodiment Construction

[0017] will be based on Figures 1 to 6 An embodiment of the hood structure for a vehicle of the present invention will be described.

[0018] In the drawing, arrow UP represents the upper side of the vehicle body, arrow FR represents the front of the vehicle body, and arrow IN represents the inner direction of the vehicle width.

[0019] Such as figure 1 and 5 As shown, the hood 10 of the present embodiment is provided with a hood outer panel 12 constituting the outer surface of the vehicle body of the hood 10, and an engine hood provided on the inner side (back side) of the hood outer panel 12 and constituting the inner side of the hood 10. Cover inner panel 14. The outer peripheral portion of the hood outer panel 12 is joined to the outer peripheral portion of the hood inner panel 14 by beading.

[0020] The outer peripheral edge portion of the hood inner panel 14 is constituted by a front end edge portion 14A, a rear end edge portion 14B, and left and right vehicle wid...

Abstract

The invention relates to an engine cover structure for vehicle. The engine cover (10) contains an outer panel (12) and an inner panel (14). The outer panel (12) contains a skeleton structure (18). A cross section shape of a skeleton structure (18) cutting along a vehicle width direction becomes approximately constant over a longitudinal direction of a vehicle body excepting the joint portion with the outer panel (12). The skeleton structure (18) is spaced from the outer panel (12) by the rear part (24) of the engine cover (10) more greatly than the front part (22) of the engine cover (10). So the skeleton structure (18) is formed to secondarily collide to a part (40) in the engine compartment at early timing. The structure is used to reduce impact received by a collision body at the rear part (24) by secondary collision when the collision body collides to the rear part (24) of the engine cover (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hood structure for a vehicle, and more particularly to a hood structure for a vehicle that protects an impact body when a vehicle such as an automobile is hit. Background technique [0002] Generally, regarding a hood structure for a vehicle suitable for a vehicle such as an automobile, a configuration is known in which a rear portion of the hood in the vehicle front-rear direction is made thicker than a front portion of the hood in the vehicle front-rear direction. Therefore, the rigidity of the front portion of the hood is reduced, thereby reducing the impact received by the small impact body that is easy to collide with the front portion of the hood; The impact energy absorbed by the hood is utilized when hitting the rear portion of the hood (for example, see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication (JP-A) No. 11-321713). [0003] However, in the hood structure for a vehicle of JP-A No. 11-321713, the ske...
