[0008] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the description, directions such as front, back, left, right, and up and down refer to directions relative to the vehicle body unless otherwise specified. In each figure, the symbol FR indicates the front of the vehicle body, the symbol UP indicates the top of the vehicle body, and the symbol LH indicates the left side of the vehicle body.

[0009] [First Embodiment] Figure 1 is a left side view of the off-road vehicle 10 in the first embodiment. As an example of a vehicle, the off-road vehicle 10 is a side-by-side MUV. The off-road vehicle 10 comprises a body frame 11, a pair of front wheels 12 supported at the front of the body frame 11, a pair of rear wheels 13 supported at the rear of the body frame 11, and a power unit (not shown) located at the lower rear of the vehicle. The off-road vehicle 10 is driven by the power unit supplying driving force to the front wheels 12 and rear wheels 13.

[0010] A vehicle body frame (11) includes a front frame (21), a center frame (22) connected to a rear portion of the front frame (21), and a rear frame (23) connected to a rear portion of the center frame (22). The vehicle body frame (11) also includes an upper frame (26) attached to extend upward from the front frame (21) and the center frame (22).

[0011] A front wheel (12) is supported on the front frame (21) via a front suspension (17). A rear wheel (13) is supported on the rear frame (23) via a rear suspension (18).

[0012] The upper frame (26) includes, in a side view of the vehicle: a pair of left and right front pillars (27) that extend rearward and upward from a rear upper portion of the front frame (21) and then extend rearward; a pair of left and right center pillars (28) that extend upward from the center frame (22) and are connected to rear ends of the front pillars (27); and a cross frame (29) that connects between rear ends of the left and right center pillars (28). A plate-shaped roof (50) is attached above the upper frame (26). A cabin space (30) for occupants to enter is formed by a space surrounded by the front frame (21), the center frame (22), and the upper frame (26).

[0013] Inside the cabin space (30), seats (not shown) on which a driver and a passenger sit are arranged. The seats are arranged side by side in the left-right direction. Inside the cabin space (30), operation components such as a steering wheel (not shown) operated by the driver are arranged.

[0014] An off-road vehicle (10) includes: a front cover (41) provided at a front end portion and covering a front end of the off-road vehicle (10); a front fender (42) provided at a rear portion of the front cover (41) and covering from above the front wheel (12) to the rear thereof; a front upper cover (43) provided above the front fender (42) and covering a front upper portion of the off-road vehicle (10); and a front door (door) (44) arranged behind the front fender (42) and provided openably and closably via a hinge bracket (60) at a rear end portion.

[0015] Further, the rough terrain vehicle 10 includes a side cover 45 disposed rearwardly and downwardly of a front door 44 and covering a side portion of the rough terrain vehicle 10, a rear side cover 46 disposed rearwardly above the side cover 45, a rear cover 47 covering a space between left and right rear side covers 46 from a rear side, and a rear fender 48 provided below the rear side cover 46 and covering a rear wheel 13 from above. The rear side cover 46 and the rear cover 47 cover the cargo bed 51 from the outside. The cargo bed 51 is supported by a rear frame 23. The cargo bed 51 is used as a space for placing cargo. A rear seat may be disposed on the cargo bed 51 to allow additional occupants to ride.

[0016] FIG. 2 is a left side view showing a peripheral portion of a hinge bracket 60 according to the first embodiment. The front door 44 is swingably supported by a vehicle body frame 11. A hinge bracket 60 extending in a vertical direction is supported by the vehicle body frame 11. The hinge bracket 60 includes a base portion 61 extending in the vertical direction, an extension portion 62 extending forward from an inner end of the base portion 61 in a vehicle width direction, and hinge stay portions 63 provided at both upper and lower ends of the base portion 61 and having a thickness in the vertical direction. In the present embodiment, the hinge stay portions 63 are each in a plate shape bent forward from both upper and lower ends of the base portion 61.

[0017] In the hinge bracket 60, the base portion 61 is fixed to a center pillar 28 of the vehicle body frame 11 by a bolt (fixing member) 66 extending in a front-rear direction. Further, the extension portion 62 is fixed to a center frame 22 of the vehicle body frame 11 by a bolt 67 extending inward in the vehicle width direction.

[0018] A rear end portion of the front door 44 is disposed between the upper and lower hinge stay portions 63. A hinge pin (swing shaft) 71 is supported between the upper and lower hinge stay portions 63. The front door 44 is swingably supported by the vehicle body frame 11 via the hinge pin 71.

[0019] In detail, the hinge pin 71 has a shaft portion 71a that extends in the vertical direction. A larger diameter portion 71b is formed at the upper end of the shaft portion 71a. An annular groove 71c is formed at the lower end of the shaft portion 71a. The hinge pin 71 is inserted downward from the pivot hole 63a (see Figure 7) of the upper hinge stay portion 63. It is then inserted into the pivot bearing member 44a provided on the upper side of the front door 44.

[0020] Furthermore, the hinge pin 71 is inserted into a pivot bearing member 44a provided on the lower side of the front door 44. In addition, the hinge pin 71 is inserted into a pivot hole 63a of the lower hinge stay portion 63. On the lower side of the hinge pin 71, a circlip (retaining member) 72, which has a larger diameter than the pivot hole 63a, is fixed to a groove 71c. As a result, the hinge pin 71 is prevented from coming out of the hinge bracket 60 by the large-diameter portion 71b and the circlip 72, and the front door 44 is supported so that it can pivot around the hinge pin 71.

[0021] Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram of the operating section 80 of the left front door 44. An operating section 80 is provided on the inner side of the vehicle body at the front end of the front door 44. The operating section 80 has a cover-shaped housing 81 that bulges inward in the vehicle width direction. An operating member 82 is rotatably supported in the housing 81. A latch 83 is provided at the front of the operating member 82, which rotates in conjunction with the operating member 82. When the front door 44 is closed, the latch 83 abuts against and overcomes the striker shaft 11a provided on the vehicle body frame 11, and engages with the striker shaft 11a to restrict the opening of the front door 44.

[0022] A stopper 84 is supported below the latch 83. The stopper 84 contacts the vehicle frame 11 when the front door 44 is closed, restricting excessive swinging of the front door 44. When the operating member 82 is operated, the latch 83 rotates and disengages from the striker shaft 11a. Therefore, by pushing the front end of the front door 44 away from the vehicle frame 11, the front door 44 swings around the hinge pin 71 and opens.

[0023] In this embodiment, a door net 100 is provided on each of the left and right front doors 44, as shown in Figure 1. The door net 100 is approximately triangular in shape when viewed from the side of the vehicle body. More specifically, the door net 100 in this embodiment has an outer shape defined by three belts 101, 102, and 103.

[0024] Specifically, the door net 100 has, in a side view of the vehicle body, a first belt 101 that slopes upward towards the rear, a second belt 102 that extends in the front-rear direction, and a third belt 103 that extends in the up-down direction. The first belt 101 is connected at its front lower end to the upper front end of the front door 44 and at its rear upper end to the upper end of the center pillar 28. The second belt 102 is connected at its front end to the lower end of the first belt 101 and at its rear end to the hinge stay portion 63 of the hinge bracket 60 on the vehicle body frame 11 side. The third belt 103 is connected at its upper end to the upper end of the first belt 101 and at its lower end to the rear end of the second belt 102.

[0025] These three belts 101-103 form a roughly triangular shape when viewed from the side of the vehicle body. A net 106 is provided between the belts 101-103 to close the gap between them. The belts 101-103 are connected to the front door 44 and the vehicle body frame 11 with appropriate tension. As a result, the door net 100 is provided taut above the front door 44, covering the sides of the cabin space 30 from the outside.

[0026] Here, the first belt 101 is connected to the front door 44 via a mounting bracket (door net mounting part) 107. As shown in Figure 3, the mounting bracket 107 has a tapered shape. A fixing hole 107a is formed at the tip of the mounting bracket 107. An elongated hole 107b is formed at the base of the mounting bracket 107. The first belt 101 is inserted into the elongated hole 107b. The inserted first belt 101 is then, for example, folded back and overlapped with the first belt 101 itself and fixed in place.

[0027] As a result, a mounting bracket 107 is provided on the front end side of the first belt 101. A bolt (fastener) 111 extending in the left-right direction is inserted through the fixing hole 107a of the mounting bracket 107. The bolt 111 is fixed to the housing 81 of the operating unit 80. The mounting bracket 107 is supported so as to be rotatable around the bolt 111. The first belt 101 is connected to the upper part of the center pillar 28 at its rear upper end via a mounting bracket (door net mounting part) 109 (see Figure 1).

[0028] Figure 4 is a left side view showing the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 63 of the hinge bracket 60 in the first embodiment. Figure 5 is a perspective view of the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 63 of the hinge bracket 60 in the first embodiment, viewed from the left rear. Figure 6 is a plan view showing the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 63 of the hinge bracket 60 in the first embodiment. Figure 7 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VII-VII in Figure 6. The second belt 102 is connected to the hinge bracket 60 via a mounting bracket (door net mounting part) 108. The mounting bracket 108 is formed in the same way as the mounting bracket 107. The configuration of providing the mounting bracket 108 on the second belt 102 is the same as the configuration of providing the mounting bracket 107 on the first belt 101.

[0029] The upper hinge stay portion 63 has a door net fastening portion 63b formed on the inward side in the vehicle width direction and rearward relative to the swing hole 63a (see Figures 6 and 7). The door net fastening portion 63b has, for example, a welded nut. The mounting bracket 108 is connected to the door net fastening portion 63b via a stepped bolt 112. In detail, the stepped bolt 112 has a head 112a, a stepped portion 112b which is smaller in diameter than the head 112a, and a threaded shaft portion 112c which is smaller in diameter than the stepped portion 112b. The stepped portion 112b is inserted through the fixing hole 108a of the mounting bracket 108 and the hole in the washer 113, and the threaded shaft portion 112c is fastened to the door net fastening portion 63b. The stepped bolt 112 is fastened so as to extend parallel to the hinge pin 71.

[0030] The mounting bracket 108 is supported on the hinge stay portion 63 via a washer 113. The mounting bracket 108 is supported on the stepped portion 112b of the stepped bolt 112. This allows the mounting bracket 108 to pivot around the stepped bolt 112.

[0031] In the off-road vehicle 10 of this embodiment, the operating member 82 is operated to release the lock on the front door 44. Since the door net 100 is supported by the front door 44, the door net 100 is opened together with the front door 44. Therefore, there is no need to fold the door net 100 or otherwise open the cabin space 30, and occupants can get in and out of the cabin space 30 simply by opening the front door 44.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the second belt 102 of the door net 100 is connected to the first belt 101 at its front end and to the hinge stay portion 63 of the hinge bracket 60 at its rear end. Therefore, since it extends with the pivot center of the front door 44 during swing, that is, a position close to the hinge pin 71, it can rotate while suppressing changes in its longitudinal length. Consequently, tension changes and shape changes due to repeated opening of the door net 100 are easily suppressed.

[0033] As described above, according to this embodiment, in a vehicle comprising a body frame 11 that partitions the cabin space 30, a hinge bracket 60 provided on the body frame 11, a front door 44 that is pivotably supported on the body frame 11 via the hinge bracket 60, and a door net 100 that is attached to the body frame 11 and covers the cabin space 30 from above the front door 44, the door net 100 has a substantially triangular shape when viewed from the side of the vehicle, and has mounting brackets 107, 108, and 109 provided at each corner of the door net 100 and attached to the vehicle body, one of the three mounting brackets 107, 108, and 109 being attached to the front door 44, the remaining two of the three mounting brackets 107, 108, and 109 being pivotably attached to the body frame 11, and one of the two mounting brackets 108, 109 that are pivotably attached to the body frame 11 being attached to the hinge bracket 60. With this configuration, the door net 100 can rotate together with the front door 44, with the side attached to the vehicle frame 11 as the pivot point. At this time, the pivot point of the door net 100 can be set so as not to be separated from the pivot point of the front door 44. Therefore, with this configuration, it is possible to provide an off-road vehicle 10 in which the door net 100 is provided in a way that prevents shape changes while allowing easy entry and exit to the cabin space 30.

[0034] In this embodiment, the front door 44 is provided with a hinge pin 71 that pivotably supports it, and the mounting bracket 108, which is supported by the hinge bracket 60, is located inward and rearward of the vehicle body in a plan view compared to the hinge pin 71 of the front door 44. With this configuration, the pivot center of the door net 100 is further away from the pivot center of the front door 44 than the pivot center of the front door 44, which is the pivot open end of the front door 44 in this embodiment. Therefore, when the front door 44 swings open and closed, it is easier to apply appropriate tension to the door net 100 and keep it taut, and the door net 100 can rotate more integrally with the front door 44 when opening and closing the front door 44.

[0035] [Second Embodiment] A second embodiment will now be described. In this second embodiment, parts configured in the same way as in the first embodiment will be denoted by the same reference numerals and their description will be omitted.

[0036] Figure 8 is a left side view of the off-road vehicle 10 in the second embodiment. In the second embodiment, a door net 200 is provided instead of the door net 100. The door net 200 in the second embodiment differs from the door net 100 in the first embodiment in that an extension belt 204 is provided on the front extension of the second belt 102.

[0037] A buckle (fourth door net mounting part) 205 is provided at the front end of the extension belt 204. The buckle 205 is detachably connected to a buckle 206 provided at the lower end of the front pillar 27 of the vehicle body frame 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, the front of the door net 200 is connected to the vehicle frame 11 via an extension belt 204, thereby providing more robust support to the door net 200 on the vehicle frame 11. When opening the front door 44, the buckle 205 is detached from the buckle 206, allowing occupants to enter and exit the cabin space 30 simply by opening the front door 44, similar to the first embodiment. If the buckle 205 is not detached from the buckle 206, the front door 44 will not open because the extension belt 204 is connected to the vehicle frame 11. Therefore, if robust fixing is not desired, the door net 200 can still function as a door net 200 even if the buckle 205 is not connected to the buckle 206, as it is still supported by the mounting brackets 107-109.

[0039] As described above, according to this embodiment, similar to the first embodiment, the door net 200 is rotatable together with the front door 44, with the side attached to the vehicle body frame 11 as the pivot point. Therefore, in this embodiment as well, it is possible to provide an off-road vehicle 10 in which the door net 200 is provided in such a way that it does not easily change shape, while enabling easy entry and exit to the cabin space 30.

[0040] In particular, in this embodiment, the door net 200 is equipped with a buckle 205 at its tip, which allows it to be attached to and detached from the vehicle body frame 11 via a buckle 206. With this configuration, if you want to securely attach the door net 200, you can use the buckle 205 to firmly attach it to the vehicle frame 11.

[0041] [Third Embodiment] A third embodiment will now be described. In this third embodiment, parts configured in the same way as in the first and second embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals and their descriptions are omitted.

[0042] Figure 9 is a left side view showing the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 363 of the hinge bracket 360 in the third embodiment. Figure 10 is a plan view showing the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 363 of the hinge bracket 360 in the third embodiment. Figure 11 is a cross-sectional view taken along line XI-XI of Figure 10. The hinge bracket 360 in the third embodiment differs from the hinge bracket 60 in the first embodiment in that the door net fastening portion 63b is omitted in the upper hinge stay portion 363.

[0043] In the third embodiment, the hinge pin (oscillating shaft) 371 differs from the hinge pin 71 in the first embodiment in that the length of the shaft portion 371a is longer than the length of the shaft portion 71a. In the third embodiment, the mounting bracket 108 and washer 113 are passed through the hinge pin 371. Therefore, since the pivot center of the mounting bracket 108 coincides with the pivot center of the front door 44, it is possible to make it difficult to cause changes in the tension of the second belt 102, especially when the front door 44 swings, and deformation of the door net 100 is easily suppressed.

[0044] As described above, according to this embodiment, similar to the first and second embodiments, the door net 100 is rotatable together with the front door 44, with the side attached to the vehicle body frame 11 as the pivot point. Therefore, in this embodiment as well, it is possible to provide an off-road vehicle 10 in which the door net 100 is provided in such a way that it does not easily change shape, while allowing easy entry and exit to the cabin space 30.

[0045] In particular, this embodiment includes a hinge pin 371 that pivotably supports the front door 44, and the mounting bracket 108, supported by the hinge bracket 360, is supported coaxially with the hinge pin 371. This configuration makes it easier to align the pivot point of the door net 100 with the hinge pin 371 of the front door 44, thus making it less likely for the door net 100 to change shape, while allowing the door net 100 to pivot together with the front door 44.

[0046] [Fourth Embodiment] A fourth embodiment will now be described. In this fourth embodiment, parts configured in the same way as in the first to third embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals and their descriptions are omitted.

[0047] Figure 12 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 363 of the hinge bracket 360 in the fourth embodiment. In the fourth embodiment, a hinge pin (oscillating shaft) 471 is provided instead of the hinge pin 371 in the third embodiment. The hinge pin 471 in the fourth embodiment is configured substantially the same as the hinge pin 71 in the first embodiment. However, the hinge pin 471 in the fourth embodiment differs from the hinge pin 71 in the first embodiment in that a fastening hole 471b is formed in the large diameter portion 71b. The center line of the fastening hole 471b is aligned with the center line of the shaft portion 71a.

[0048] A stepped bolt (mounting support part) 412 is fastened to the fastening hole 471b. The stepped bolt 412 can be constructed in the same way as the stepped bolt 112 in the second embodiment. The stepped bolt 412 has a head 412a, a stepped portion 412b, and a threaded shaft portion 412c. A mounting bracket 108 and a washer 113 are attached to the stepped portion 412b of the stepped bolt 412.

[0049] As described above, similar to the first to third embodiments, the door net 100 is rotatable together with the front door 44, with the side attached to the vehicle frame 11 as the pivot point. Therefore, in this embodiment as well, it is possible to provide an off-road vehicle 10 in which the door net 100 is provided in such a way that it does not easily change shape, while allowing easy entry and exit to the cabin space 30.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, similar to the third embodiment, the mounting bracket 108 supported by the hinge bracket 360 is supported coaxially with the hinge pin 471. Therefore, in this embodiment as well, the door net 100 can be swung together with the front door 44 while minimizing changes in the shape of the door net 100.

[0051] In particular, in this embodiment, a stepped bolt 412 that supports the mounting bracket 108 is provided on the upper part of the hinge pin 471. This configuration allows the mounting bracket 108 to be attached to the hinge pin 471 of the front door 44 after the hinge pin 471 has been assembled, thus providing greater flexibility in assembly.

[0052] [Fifth Embodiment] A fifth embodiment will now be described. In this fifth embodiment, parts configured in the same way as in the first to fourth embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals and their descriptions are omitted.

[0053] Figure 13 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the peripheral area of ​​the upper hinge stay portion 363 of the hinge bracket 360 in the fifth embodiment. In the fifth embodiment, the hinge pin (oscillating shaft) 571 is provided instead of the hinge pin 471 in the fourth embodiment. The hinge pin 571 in the fifth embodiment is configured substantially the same as the hinge pin 71 in the first embodiment. However, the hinge pin 571 in the fifth embodiment differs from the hinge pin 71 in the first embodiment in that it has a support pin portion (mounting portion support portion) 573 that protrudes upward from the large diameter portion 71b.

[0054] The support pin portion 573 is formed coaxially with the shaft portion 71a. The support pin portion 573 has a lower cylindrical portion 573a and a threaded portion 573b provided above the cylindrical portion 573a. The mounting bracket 108 and washer 113 are attached to the cylindrical portion 573a. A nut 512 is fastened to the threaded portion 573b. Thus, the mounting bracket 108 of the door net 100 is supported coaxially with the hinge pin 571.

[0055] As described above, similar to the first to fourth embodiments, the door net 100 is rotatable together with the front door 44, with the side attached to the vehicle frame 11 as the pivot point. Therefore, in this embodiment as well, it is possible to provide an off-road vehicle 10 in which the door net 100 is provided in such a way that it does not easily change shape, while allowing easy entry and exit to the cabin space 30.

[0056] Furthermore, in this embodiment, similar to the third and fourth embodiments, the mounting bracket 108 supported by the hinge bracket 360 is supported coaxially with the hinge pin 571. Therefore, in this embodiment as well, the door net 100 can be swung together with the front door 44 while minimizing changes in the shape of the door net 100.

[0057] In particular, in this embodiment, a support pin portion 573 for supporting the mounting bracket 108 is provided on the upper part of the hinge pin 571. This configuration allows the mounting bracket 108 to be attached to the hinge pin 571 of the front door 44 after the hinge pin 571 has been assembled, thus providing greater flexibility in assembly.

[0058] [Other embodiments] The embodiments described above represent only one aspect of the present invention and can be modified and applied as needed without departing from the spirit of the invention.

[0059] In the above embodiment, an MUV having a pair of left and right front wheels 12 and a pair of left and right rear wheels 13 was exemplified as the off-road vehicle 10, but there may be just one rear wheel 13, and the vehicle may be a so-called tricycle.

[0060] In the third to fifth embodiments described above, a configuration including a door net 100 was explained, but a configuration including a door net 200 instead of the door net 100 is also acceptable.

[0061] [Configurations supported by the above embodiment] The above embodiment supports the following configuration.

[0062] (Configuration 1) A vehicle comprising a body frame that partitions a cabin space, a hinge bracket provided on the body frame, a door that is pivotably supported on the body frame via the hinge bracket, and a door net attached to the body frame and covering the cabin space from above the door, wherein the door net has a substantially triangular shape in a side view of the vehicle, and has door net mounting portions provided at each corner of the door net that are attached to the vehicle body, one of the three door net mounting portions is attached to the door, the remaining two of the three door net mounting portions are pivotably attached to the body frame, and one of the two door net mounting portions pivotably attached to the body frame is attached to the hinge bracket. In this configuration, the door net can rotate together with the door, with the side attached to the vehicle frame as the pivot point. In this case, the pivot point of the door net can be set so as not to be separated from the pivot point of the door, making it possible to provide a vehicle in which the door net is installed in a way that minimizes shape changes while allowing easy entry and exit to the cabin space.

[0063] (Configuration 2) The vehicle according to Configuration 1, comprising a pivot axis that pivotably supports the door, wherein the door net mounting portion supported by the hinge bracket is located, in a plan view, further inward and rearward from the pivot axis of the door. In this configuration, the pivoting open end of the door is located at a distance greater than the pivoting center of the door net. This makes it easier to apply appropriate tension to the door net when the door pivots to open and close, and allows the door net to rotate more integrally with the door when opening and closing.

[0064] (Configuration 3) The vehicle according to Configuration 1, comprising a pivot shaft that pivotably supports the door, wherein the door net mounting portion supported by the hinge bracket is supported coaxially with the pivot shaft. This configuration makes it easier to align the pivot point of the door net with the pivot axis of the door, thus making it less likely for the door net's shape to change while allowing it to pivot together with the door.

[0065] (Configuration 4) The vehicle according to Configuration 3, characterized in that a mounting support portion for supporting the door net mounting portion is provided on the upper part of the pivot shaft. This configuration allows for the door net mounting section to be attached to the pivot axis after the door pivot axis has been assembled, providing greater flexibility in assembly.

[0066] (Configuration 5) The vehicle according to any one of Configurations 1 to 4, characterized in that the door net is provided with a fourth door net mounting portion at the tip of the door net that can be attached to and detached from the vehicle body frame via a buckle. With this configuration, if you want to securely attach the door net, you can do so by firmly attaching it to the vehicle frame. [Explanation of Symbols]
