Vehicle-body frame structure
A vehicle-body frame structure including a floor tunnel includes a cross member floor front and a transmission cross member. The cross member floor front is disposed at a vehicle front end of the floor tunnel and has a vehicle-widthwise cross-sectional shape that includes a first slant, a second slant and a third slant. The first slant extends from the vehicle bottom part toward an inward-and-upward side in a vehicle width direction of the vehicle. The second slant extends from a vehicle upper part of the first slant toward an outward-and-upward side in the vehicle width direction. The cross member floor front is formed by joining to each other members divided in a vehicle up-down direction of the vehicle on a vehicle upper side of the second slant. The transmission cross member is fixed to the cross member floor front on a vehicle upper side of the first slant.
1 . A vehicle-body frame structure comprising a floor tunnel disposed in a vehicle bottom part of a vehicle, the floor tunnel having a U shape, accommodating a vehicle rear part of a transmission and a propeller shaft of the vehicle, and extending in a front-rear direction of the vehicle at a vehicle-widthwise central part, the vehicle-body frame structure comprising:
a cross member floor front disposed at a vehicle front end of the floor tunnel, the cross member floor front having a vehicle-widthwise cross-sectional shape that includes a first slant, a second slant and a third slant, the first slant extending from the vehicle bottom part toward an inward-and-upward side in a vehicle width direction of the vehicle, the second slant extending from a vehicle upper part of the first slant toward an outward-and-upward side in the vehicle width direction, and the third slant extending from a vehicle upper part of the second slant toward an inward-and-upward side in the vehicle width direction; and
a transmission cross member being fixed to the first slant of the cross member floor front, wherein
the vehicle rear part of the transmission is mounted on and fixed to the transmission cross member,
the cross member floor front is formed by joining to each other members divided in a vehicle up-down direction of the vehicle on a vehicle upper side of the second slant, and
the transmission cross member is fixed to the cross member floor front on a vehicle upper side of the first slant.
2 . The vehicle-body frame structure according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a fastening member fixing the transmission cross member to the cross member floor front, the fastening member being accommodated inside in the vehicle width direction with respect to an imaginary plane obtained by extending, to a vehicle lower and outer side, a plane of the third slant on vehicle-widthwise outer sides of the cross member floor front.
