Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a vender of a vehicle, and in particular, the collision and adhesion of pebbles and mud splashed up by a tire to the side face of the veneer outer plate causes a reduction in fuel consumption. The present invention relates to a pendant structure that can be prevented without performing.

(Prior Art) FIG. 2 shows a tire 1 of an automobile and its peripheral portion. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 2 represents a fuser outer plate.

By the way, generally, as shown in FIG. 2, the lower part of the outer panel 2 of an automobile is bent toward the inner side of the vehicle body, and the lower end portion of the outer panel 2 of the tire 1 is inside the vehicle body. It is located towards Therefore, when the pebbles and mud existing on the ground 3 are lifted up by the tire 1 when the vehicle is running, the pebbles and mud are spread on the side surface of the outer panel 2 of the fender as shown by the symbol A in FIG. There were problems such as collisions and chipping, and mud adhering to the surface of the outer panel 2 of the fan, impairing the appearance.

Therefore, conventionally, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems due to such jumping of pebbles and mud, as shown by the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. 2, a mat guard 4 whose thickness gradually increases toward the front is provided. Attachment to the outer skin 2 of the fan is performed. (Refer to Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 55-68681) (Problems to be solved by the invention) However, when such a mat guard 4 is attached to the outer panel 2 of the fan, air hits the front surface of the mat guard 4 during running, and as a result, There are problems such as increased air resistance and poor fuel economy.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to prevent collision and adhesion of pebbles and mud splashed up by tires to the outer panel of a vehicle. The present invention provides a vehicle fender structure that can maintain a good appearance and prevent an increase in air resistance against traveling wind as much as possible to avoid deterioration of fuel efficiency.

(Means for Solving Problems) According to the present invention, the outer side surface of a fan rear portion of a vehicle rear side of a vehicle is formed so as to be substantially flush with the outer end surface of the tire so that pebbles and mud can jump to the outer side of the front side of the vehicle. A groove extending in the front-rear direction of the vehicle is provided at the front end of the vehicle to prevent the climb, and a front end of the groove is opened toward the tire and the depth of the groove is gradually reduced toward the rear of the vehicle body. It is formed to prevent the deterioration of fuel efficiency.

(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be described based on an example shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a wing structure according to the present invention, in which a side surface of a wing outer plate 2 is formed to be substantially flush with a surface including an outer end surface of a tire 1. In addition, a plurality of grooves 5 extending in the front-rear direction of the vehicle body are formed in parallel with each other in a rear portion of the tire 1. The groove 5 is formed such that the front end thereof is opened toward the tire 1 so that the air can be rectified, and the depth of the groove 5 becomes shallower toward the rear of the vehicle body.

In the fuser structure configured in this manner, the lower surface and the front end surface of the outer cover 2 of the fan at the rear of the tire 1 and the lower surface of the fin-shaped convex portion 6 formed between the grooves 5 adjacent to each other allow pebbles and Mud will be prevented from jumping to the surface of the Fender skin 2. Further, the airflow guided to the front end surface of the fan outer plate 2 is guided along the groove 5 and guided to the rear of the vehicle body.

According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

That is, the fin-shaped convex portion 6 formed between the lower surface and the front end surface of the fan outer plate 2 behind the tire 1 and the adjacent groove 5.
Pebbles that are lifted up by the tire 1 by the bottom surface of the
Since the mud and the like can be prevented, it is possible to effectively prevent the chipping phenomenon that occurs on the side surface of the fender outer plate 2 and the adhesion of the mud to the front surface of the fender outer plate 2 due to the jumping of pebbles and mud.

Further, since the traveling wind that collides with the rear portion of the tire 1 is guided to the rear while being rectified along the plurality of grooves 5, turbulent flow or the like does not occur and the air resistance does not increase. It does not make fuel consumption worse.

In the present embodiment, the case where the groove 5 and the like are integrally formed on the outer panel of the fan has been described. However, the jump-up preventing portion of the groove 5 and the like is separately formed, and this is shown in FIG. As shown by the chain line, it may be attached to the outer panel 2. Of course, in this case, the same effect as described above can be obtained.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, since the outer surface of the fan rear portion of the vehicle rear of the vehicle is formed to be substantially flush with the outer end surface of the tire, the outer surface of the pebble or mud outer surface of the fender It is possible to effectively prevent the vehicle from jumping up and to prevent the occurrence of chipping and the like and maintain a good appearance of the vehicle. Further, by rectifying the traveling wind and guiding it backward by the groove extending in the front-rear direction of the vehicle body provided in the above-mentioned fender portion, it is possible to prevent turbulence and the like and effectively suppress an increase in air resistance. Therefore, deterioration of fuel efficiency can be avoided.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. A vehicle rear fender portion of a vehicle is formed such that an outer side surface thereof is substantially flush with an outer side end surface of the tire, and a groove extending in the vehicle front-rear direction is provided in the fender portion, and a front end of the groove is formed. The fender structure for a vehicle is characterized in that the groove is opened toward the tire and the depth of the groove is gradually reduced toward the rear of the vehicle.
