る。 In the case of automobiles, it is required to enlarge the area of the opening in the vehicle body in order to improve the ease of getting on and off the vehicle, but it is very difficult to enlarge the area of the opening in the vehicle body within the limited overall length of the vehicle. Therefore, in response to such a request, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the mounting position of the pillar lower 2, which is below the vehicle body waist line W of the front pillar 1, should be moved forward as shown by the chain line in the figure. is possible. When moving the mounting position of the front pillar lower 2 forward in this way,
Since there is a front wheel house W/H in front of the pillar lower 2, the lower part of the pillar lower 2 is attached to the dash side panel 3 as shown by the chain line in FIG.
It is necessary to incline forward approximately along the arch of the joint 5 between the front edge and the side edge of the dart lower panel 4.
しかし、前述のようにフロントピラーロア2の
取付位置を前方に移動させて、車体開口面積を拡

開昭47−14623号公報参照)。 However, when the mounting position of the front pillar lower 2 is moved forward to enlarge the vehicle body opening area as described above, the lower part of the pillar lower 2 must be tilted forward, so the side wall of the pillar lower 2 is The upper and lower door hinge points H 1 and H 2 have to be set at the substantially vertical part of the pillar lower 2, that is, the upper side, and therefore the upper and lower door hinge points H 1 ,
The span of H 2 narrows from L 1 to L 2 , causing a problem that reduces the installation strength of the door.
In FIGS. 1 and 2, 6 indicates a side sill, 7 indicates a front fender, and 8 indicates a hood storage panel (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 14623/1983).
本発明はかかる問題点に鑑み、フロントピラー
ロアの取付位置を前方に移動する場合にあつて
も、上、下ドアヒンジ点間のスパンを十分にとる
ことのできるフロントピラー構造を提供すること
を目的とするものである。 In view of such problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a front pillar structure that allows a sufficient span between the upper and lower door hinge points even when the mounting position of the front pillar lower is moved forward. That is.
前記目的を達成するため、本発明にあつてはフ

基部よりも前方に突出するオーバーハング部を形
成して、該ピラーロア下側部の側壁の幅を前、後
壁基部間の幅よりも大きく形成してある。 In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, an overhang portion is formed on at least the lower front wall of the front pillar lower and projects forward from its base, so that the side wall of the lower side of the pillar lower is The width is made larger than the width between the front and rear wall bases.
以下、本発明の実施例を図面と共に前記従来の
構成と同一部分に同一符号を付して詳述する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, in which the same parts as those of the conventional structure are denoted by the same reference numerals.
即ち、本発明にあつては第3,4図に示すよう

よりも大きく形成してある。 That is, in the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, at least the front wall 2a of the lower side of the pillar lower 2 below the vehicle body waist line W of the front pillar 1, and in front of its base. A protruding overhang portion 9 is formed, and the width l 1 of the side wall 2c of the lower portion of the pillar lower is changed to the width l 2 between the bases of the front and rear walls 2a and 2b.
It is formed larger than the

H2間のスパンをドア取付強度を十分に確保でき
る長さに設定することができるのである。 Therefore, as shown in the third figure, the mounting position of the front pillar lower 2 is moved as far forward as possible, and the lower part of the front pillar lower 2 is connected to the side edge of the darts side panel 3 and the darts. In the case where the joining part 5 with the side edge of the lower panel 4 is formed to be tilted forward so as to substantially follow the arch shape and joined to the dash side panel 3, the overhang of the front wall 2a of the lower part By forming the portion 9, the width of the side wall 2c of the lower portion can be increased.
c can be made almost straight from the upper side to the lower side, and as a result, the upper and lower door hinge points H 1 ,
The span between H 2 can be set to a length that ensures sufficient door installation strength.

てもよい。 In addition, in the above embodiment, the overhang portion is formed only on the lower side of the front pillar lower.
In some cases, this overhang portion may be formed from the upper side to the lower side to increase the closed cross-sectional area of the front pillar and increase the pillar rigidity.

る。 As described above, according to the present invention, since the width of the side wall of at least the lower side of the front pillar lower is made wider by forming the overhang part of the front wall, the mounting position of the front pillar lower is particularly When moving the front door as far forward as possible to expand the opening area of the vehicle body and improve ease of entry and exit, the span between the upper and lower door hinge points can be made sufficiently wide, and the front and rear pillars can be moved as far forward as possible. It has a great practical effect in that it can also improve the directional collapse strength.
