20080258502 | FLOOR PANEL IN VEHICLE, HAVING POSITIONING HOLE FORMED IN JOINT BETWEEN BEADS - In a floor panel in a vehicle, a plurality of beads are arranged in parallel on the floor panel; a joint part for connecting adjacent two of the beads is provided so as to form a coplanar surface over the two beads; a positioning hole, which is used for positioning the floor panel during assembly, is provided in the joint part; and a burr, which protrudes toward the inside of the beads, is formed at the inner periphery of the positioning hole. Preferably, the length of the joint part along the length of the two beads is determined so as to secure the width length of each of the two beads on both sides of the positioning hole. Typically, a plurality of the positioning holes is provided so as to be dispersed in the front-to-back direction of the vehicle. | 10-23-2008 |
20080258503 | FLOOR PANEL IN VEHICLE, HAVING BEAD WHOSE INCLINED SURFACE HAS GRADUALLY-CHANGED INCLINATION ANGLE - In a floor panel in a vehicle, a plurality of beads, each having an arc form, are coaxially arranged on the floor panel; the center of the coaxially-arranged beads is positioned on either of side sills provided on the right and left sides of the vehicle; and each of the beads has an inclined surface, and the inclination angle of the surface with respect to the horizontal position is gradually decreased in a direction from the inner side to the outer side along the width of the vehicle. Typically, each of the beads protrudes upward, and has an inclined rear wall, and the inclination angle of the rear wall with respect to the horizontal position is gradually decreased in the direction from the inner side to the outer side along the width of the vehicle. | 10-23-2008 |
20080258506 | VEHICLE FLOOR STRUCTURE - A vehicle floor structure including a floor panel which includes: a plurality of arc beads which are provided on a surface of the floor panel so as to be arranged in parallel with each other and to extend from a side sill inner toward a middle cross member while being bent; and a bracket which is provided in the vicinity of the side sill inner for fixing an auto part, wherein: at least one of the beads in the vicinity of the side sill inner is diverged and connected to the beads at a farther side with respect to the side sill inner; the bracket is fixed so as to cover the bead in the vicinity of the side sill inner; and a farther end portion of the bracket with respect to the side sill inner is fixed so as to straddle the diverged beads. | 10-23-2008 |
20080277968 | REAR STRUCTURE OF VEHICLE BODY - A rear structure of a vehicle body including: an arc-shaped frame which is fixed at a middle portion along an extending direction thereof to a rear panel, and has first reinforcing portions in which both ends along the extending direction, which extend along a longitudinal direction of the vehicle body, and which have cross sections opening toward corresponding rear frames; and a pair of rear frames fixed at a rear end thereof to the rear panel, fixed at a front end thereof to corresponding side sill, and has a second reinforcing portion which extends along the longitudinal direction and which has a cross section opening toward the corresponding first reinforcing portion, wherein the first reinforcing portions and the corresponding second reinforcing portions are fixed to each other interposing side flanges of a spare tire pan therebetween. | 11-13-2008 |
20080277970 | VEHICLE REAR PORTION STRUCTURE - A vehicle rear portion structure including: a pair of rear frames that extend substantially in a vehicle longitudinal direction; a rear cross member that extends in a vehicle width direction and that connects both of the two rear frames; a pair of rear wheel houses that are provided with damper supporting portions; a parcel frame that extends along the vehicle width direction above the rear wheel houses; and a pair of reinforcing frames that connect both end portions of the rear cross member and both end portions of the parcel frame, wherein the reinforcing frames are placed along a side wall of respective the rear wheel houses, the side wall being adjacent to respective the damper supporting portions, and a toroidal skeleton frame is formed with the parcel frame, the reinforcing frames, and the rear cross member so as to follow a plurality of rear suspension mounting points. | 11-13-2008 |
20100060040 | REAR STRUCTURE OF VEHICLE BODY - A rear structure of a vehicle body, where a spare tire pan is supported by rear frames extending substantially in the longitudinal direction of a vehicle body, includes a plurality of arc-shaped beads that is continued in a circular arc shape and formed on the spare tire pan. The plurality of arc-shaped beads is disposed so as to be spaced apart from each other, and formed in a concave shape at substantially the same pitch toward the rear side of the vehicle body. | 03-11-2010 |
20100066125 | VEHICLE FLOOR STRUCTURE - A vehicle floor structure including: a floor tunnel frame arranged along a center in a vehicle width direction and extending in a vehicle length direction; side sills arranged on the right and left sides of a vehicle body and extending in the length direction; lateral frame members connecting the tunnel frame with the side sills; floor panels bridged between the tunnel frame and the side sills; obliquely extending portions provided on at least one of the lateral frame members and extending so as to be inclined to the length direction in a planar view, connecting respectively with the side sills; and concentric arc-shaped beads provided in the respective panels, with centers respectively at intersections of the side sills and the obliquely extending portions, wherein at least one of the beads has one end extending orthogonal to the side sill and the other end extending orthogonal to the width direction. | 03-18-2010 |
