Description

本発明は、フロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部を保持する車両用カウルトップカバーに関する。   The present invention relates to a vehicular cowl top cover that holds a lower end portion of a front windshield glass.

従来乗用車等の車両には、フロントフードにより覆われた区画が車体前部に設置されている。例えば、前側に動力用エンジンが搭載された車輌(フロントエンジンレイアウト車)には車体前部にエンジン室が設置されていて、このエンジン室は、左右側面がフェンダパネルにより、また上面開口部が開閉自在なフロントフード(ボンネット)により覆われた構造となっており、エンジン室の後部上方で前記フロントフードの後端の下方からフロントウィンドシールドガラスの下端部との間には、カウルトップカバーが設けられている。リアエンジン車(リアエンジンレイアウト車、リアミッドシップレイアウト車)においては、スペアタイヤやラゲッジスペースとして用いられる区画が、また電気自動車、燃料電池車などにおいても、駆動装置の設置場所や荷物室として利用可能な区画が、同様に、車体前部に設けられるものがあり、上記と同様にカウルトップカバーが設けられている構造を採用することがある(以下、前部区画を「エンジン室」という)。
カウルトップカバーの吸気口は、車両の走行時車室内へ外気を取り入れるもので、雨水や雪、枯葉等が吸気口内へ侵入するのを防止するため、吸気口にメッシュが設けられており、このメッシュはカウルトップカバーを樹脂により射出成形する際、カウルトップカバーと一体成形されている。
Conventionally, in a vehicle such as a passenger car, a compartment covered with a front hood is installed at the front of the vehicle body. For example, a vehicle equipped with a power engine on the front side (front engine layout vehicle) has an engine compartment at the front of the vehicle body. The engine compartment has fender panels on the left and right sides, and the top opening opens and closes. It has a structure covered with a flexible front hood (bonnet), and a cowl top cover is provided above the rear of the engine compartment and below the front hood from the lower end of the front windshield glass. It has been. In rear-engine vehicles (rear-engine layout vehicles and rear-midship layout vehicles), sections used as spare tires and luggage spaces can be used as drive installation locations and luggage compartments in electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles. Similarly, there is a case where a structure having a cowl top cover is provided in the same manner as described above (hereinafter, the front section is referred to as an “engine room”).
The cowl top cover air intake vents take outside air into the passenger compartment when the vehicle is running, and a mesh is provided at the air intake vent to prevent rainwater, snow, dead leaves, etc. from entering the air intake vent. The mesh is integrally formed with the cowl top cover when the cowl top cover is injection-molded with resin.

カウルトップカバーは、エンジン室の幅とほぼ同じ長さの長尺部材により形成されていて、全体が樹脂により射出成形されており、このような例として例えば特許文献1に記載されている。   The cowl top cover is formed of a long member having substantially the same length as the width of the engine compartment, and is entirely injection-molded with resin. Such an example is described in Patent Document 1, for example.

カウルトップカバーの後方上端部ではフロントウィンドシールドガラスの下端部が保持されている。この保持部はガラスの厚みに対応するような幅の狭い長尺でかつ通常湾曲した構造となっている。そのため該保持部にフロントウィンドシールドガラスを差し込む際に、その作業工程を容易にするように該保持部に沿ってガイドを設けたものがある。
しかし、シールドガラスの差し込み作業を容易にするためにガイドを保持部に沿ってその全域に配置すると保持部の剛性が強くなりすぎ、その結果、樹脂の成形製品であるカウルトップカバーの寸法精度の方がガラスの寸法精度を上回るという事情も加わって、シールドガラスの挿入作業時などにおいてシールドガラスに思わぬ負荷がかかり、ガラスを破損することがある。差し込みを容易にするためには保持部とガラスとの間の隙間を大きくすることも考えられるが、隙間を大きくすることは水やゴミなどの侵入、外観品質などの観点から好ましくない。
他方、薄く、平坦な長尺部をもつリアパネル部では剛性が不足すると組み立て時に変形が生じやすくまた波打ちが現れることもある。また、組み立て後、エンジンルームや直射日光の影響など熱による、あるいは走行時の車体のたわみなどの影響による同様な変形も懸念され、こうした点もシールドガラスに負荷をかける原因となる。
特開平10−226286号公報
The lower end of the front windshield glass is held at the upper rear end of the cowl top cover. This holding part has a narrow and long and usually curved structure corresponding to the thickness of the glass. For this reason, when a front windshield glass is inserted into the holding portion, a guide is provided along the holding portion so as to facilitate the work process.
However, if the guides are arranged along the holding part in order to facilitate the insertion work of the shield glass, the rigidity of the holding part becomes too strong. As a result, the dimensional accuracy of the cowl top cover, which is a resin molded product, is increased. In addition to the fact that the glass exceeds the dimensional accuracy of the glass, an unexpected load may be applied to the shield glass when the shield glass is inserted, and the glass may be damaged. In order to facilitate insertion, it is conceivable to increase the gap between the holding portion and the glass. However, it is not preferable to increase the gap from the viewpoints of intrusion of water or dust, appearance quality, and the like.
On the other hand, if the rear panel portion having a thin and flat long portion is insufficient in rigidity, deformation is likely to occur during assembly and waviness may appear. In addition, after assembly, there is a concern about the same deformation due to heat such as the influence of the engine room and direct sunlight, or the influence of the deflection of the vehicle body during traveling, and this also causes a load on the shield glass.
JP-A-10-226286

本発明はかかる問題を改善するためになされたもので、リアパネル部の剛性を高めてその変形を抑制してフロントウィンドシールドガラス下端部への負荷を緩和するとともに、該シールドガラス保持部についてはその差し込み作業時にその作業性を容易にすることができ、かつ該シールドガラス下端部への負荷を緩和することができる保持部としたカウルトップカバーを提供することを目的とするものである。   The present invention has been made to remedy such a problem, and while increasing the rigidity of the rear panel portion to suppress the deformation thereof, the load on the lower end portion of the front windshield glass is reduced, and the shield glass holding portion is It is an object of the present invention to provide a cowl top cover as a holding portion that can facilitate the workability during insertion work and can reduce the load on the lower end portion of the shield glass.

About.

本発明によれば、カウルトップカバーのリアパネル部に具備するアッパーレール部とロアレール部とで形成したフロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部を保持する保持部に沿って設けるガイドをその全域でなくその適宜箇所にガイド片として設けることで、保持部とガラスとの隙間を広げることなく、フロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部をカウルトップカバーの保持部に差し込む作業を容易に行うことができ、同時に該保持部の剛性を緩和し、ガラスに対して無理な負荷がかかることを防止することができる。また、リアパネル部補強リブの配設位置をガイド片に対向する位置からずらして配置したことにより、補強リブ配設による保持部での剛性増加を抑制してフロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部への負荷を緩和しつつリアパネル部の変形を防止することができ、この変形により該ガラス下端部に無理な負荷がかかるのを防止することができる。こうしてガラス差し込み作業工程でのあるいは車両完成後のガラスの破損を防止することができる。   According to the present invention, the guide provided along the holding portion for holding the lower end portion of the front windshield glass formed by the upper rail portion and the lower rail portion provided in the rear panel portion of the cowl top cover is not the entire region but the appropriate portion thereof. By providing the guide piece as a guide piece, it is possible to easily insert the lower end portion of the front windshield glass into the holding portion of the cowl top cover without widening the gap between the holding portion and the glass. The rigidity can be relaxed and an excessive load can be prevented from being applied to the glass. In addition, the rear panel part reinforcing ribs are arranged at a position that is offset from the position facing the guide pieces, so that the increase in rigidity at the holding part due to the reinforcing ribs is suppressed and the load on the lower end of the front windshield glass is reduced. The deformation of the rear panel portion can be prevented while relaxing, and this deformation can prevent an unnecessary load from being applied to the lower end portion of the glass. Thus, it is possible to prevent breakage of the glass in the glass insertion work process or after completion of the vehicle.

本発明は、カウルトップカバーのフロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部を差し込む保持部の構成及びその保持部に連続するリアパネル部の構成が重要である。
以下に図面により、本発明のカウルトップカバーを説明する。
In the present invention, the configuration of the holding portion into which the lower end portion of the front windshield glass of the cowl top cover is inserted and the configuration of the rear panel portion continuous with the holding portion are important.
The cowl top cover of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

図1は、カウルトップカバーの斜視図である。図1中、1はカウルトップカバー、2はフロントパネル部、3は本体部、4はリアパネル部、5はフロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部が差し込まれこれを保持する保持部、6はその保持部に設けた該ガラスの差し込みをガイドするガイド片を示す。ガイド片は、該ガラスの差し込み作業を容易に円滑にするために設ける部材であり、その目的に適合する限り、その形状、配設箇所に配設数に基本的には制限はない。   FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a cowl top cover. In FIG. 1, 1 is a cowl top cover, 2 is a front panel portion, 3 is a main body portion, 4 is a rear panel portion, 5 is a holding portion for inserting and holding the lower end portion of the front windshield glass, and 6 is a holding portion thereof. The guide piece which guides insertion of this glass provided in is shown. The guide piece is a member provided for facilitating smooth insertion of the glass, and as long as it fits the purpose, there is basically no limitation on the number of shapes and locations of the guide pieces.

図2は、前記保持部及びガイド片の説明図である。保持部は、リアパネル部4から延びるアッパーレール部7とアッパーレール部の下部から(図2では上部)から断面L字状に延びるロアレール部8とにより断面が略U字状に形成される。ガイド片6は、ロアレール部の先端に保持部開口の外方でフロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部を受け入れる方向に交差する方向に延設されている。
このガイド片は、車輌の車幅方向に所定の幅を有するが、この幅などガイド片の寸法はその目的に沿うように決定すれば良い。例えば、車幅方向の幅が10 〜25mm、図2中の高さ方向で5〜10mmが好ましい。
また、リアパネル部4にはリアパネル部4の波打ちなどの変形を防止するように補強する補強リブ9がリアパネル部とロアパネル部とを連結して配設されている。本発明においてはこの補強リブの配設位置も重要である。この補強リブは、ガイド片6に対向する位置からずれた位置(変位した位置)に設ける必要がある。補強リブをガイド片に対向する位置に配設した場合には、リアパネル部の剛性もまた前記保持部の剛性も過度に増大することとなり、その結果前記フロントウインドシールドガラスの下端部へ無理な負荷がかかることとなる。
本発明において前記補強リブを設ける位置は、ガイド片に対向する位置からずれるようにすれば良い。すなわち、ガイド片とガイド片の間に対応するリアパネル部に設ければよい。好ましくはガイド片の間の中間位置である。また、本発明において補強リブは、リアパネル部の波打ちなどの変形を防止するために設けるものであるのであるから、ガイド片の配設されていない部位においても必要に応じてその目的に適合する部位に設けることができる。
FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of the holding portion and the guide piece. The holding part has a substantially U-shaped cross section by an upper rail part 7 extending from the rear panel part 4 and a lower rail part 8 extending in a L-shaped cross section from the lower part of the upper rail part (upper part in FIG. 2). The guide piece 6 is extended at the tip of the lower rail portion in a direction intersecting the direction of receiving the lower end portion of the front windshield glass outside the holding portion opening.
The guide piece has a predetermined width in the vehicle width direction of the vehicle. The dimensions of the guide piece such as the width may be determined so as to meet the purpose. For example, the width in the vehicle width direction is preferably 10 to 25 mm, and preferably 5 to 10 mm in the height direction in FIG.
The rear panel portion 4 is provided with reinforcing ribs 9 for reinforcing the rear panel portion 4 so as to prevent deformation of the rear panel portion 4 such as undulations by connecting the rear panel portion and the lower panel portion. In the present invention, the position of the reinforcing rib is also important. This reinforcing rib needs to be provided at a position displaced from the position facing the guide piece 6 (displaced position). If the reinforcing rib is disposed at a position facing the guide piece, the rigidity of the rear panel part and the holding part excessively increase, and as a result, an excessive load is applied to the lower end of the front windshield glass. Will take.
In the present invention, the position where the reinforcing rib is provided may be shifted from the position facing the guide piece. In other words, it may be provided on the corresponding rear panel portion between the guide pieces. Preferably, it is an intermediate position between the guide pieces. Further, in the present invention, the reinforcing rib is provided to prevent deformation such as undulation of the rear panel portion. Therefore, even in a portion where the guide piece is not disposed, a portion suitable for the purpose as necessary. Can be provided.

図3は、図2中、A−A線断面説明図、図4は、図2中、B−B線断面説明図でいずれも前記保持部にガラス下端部が差し込まれた状態を説明する図である。
ここで、ガラス下端部の差し込み深さは、保持部5の奥まで到達しない限度で十分な深さであれば良いが、車体製作上のバラツキ等を考慮して、カウルトップカバーの寸法設計上、保持部5のちょうど中間点になるようするのがよい。例えば、保持部のロアレール部の内部幅寸法が16mmであれば、ガラス下端部の差し込み深さを8mmと設定する。通常2〜3mmの誤差を生じることがあり、まれに5mm程度の誤差となることもあるので、上記寸法に設定することにより十分寸法誤差を吸収可能である。
3 is a cross-sectional explanatory view taken along the line AA in FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional explanatory view taken along the line BB in FIG. 2, each illustrating a state where the lower end of the glass is inserted into the holding portion. It is.
Here, the insertion depth of the lower end portion of the glass may be sufficient as long as it does not reach the back of the holding portion 5, but in consideration of variations in the production of the vehicle body, the dimensional design of the cowl top cover It is good to make it just the middle point of the holding part 5. For example, if the inner width dimension of the lower rail part of the holding part is 16 mm, the insertion depth of the lower end of the glass is set to 8 mm. Usually, an error of 2 to 3 mm may occur, and in some cases, an error of about 5 mm may occur. Therefore, the dimensional error can be sufficiently absorbed by setting the above dimensions.
