Rearward-side vehicle body structure
View Patent ↗A rearward-side body structure of a vehicle, particularly a passenger car, has two side members mutually connected by a cross member. On each vehicle side, one console is provided, which in each case covers a junction node in a flat and form-integrated manner from below, in which junction node the cross member is to be fastened to the respective side member. The console has a bearing plate, on which a subframe of the vehicle can be supported. The bearing plate has at least one passage opening through which the subframe can be screwed to the vehicle body structure.
1. A rearward-side body structure of a vehicle, comprising: two side members;
a cross member mutually connecting the two side members;
one console respectively provided on each side of the vehicle, said console covering a junction node in which the cross member is fastenable to a respective side member, the console covering the junction node in a flat and form-integrated manner from below;
wherein each respective console has a bearing plate on which a subframe of the vehicle is supportable, the bearing plate having at least one passage opening through which the subframe is fastenable to the vehicle body structure; and
wherein a plane of the bearing plate in an edge area of the bearing plate enclosing the passage opening is inclined relative to a member plane in which at least an area of the console surrounds the bearing plate.
2. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a bush having an internal thread, the bush being covered by the console and being aligned in a respective junction node with a respective passage opening; and
wherein the bush is fastened to at least one of the cross member and a respective side member.
3. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 2 , wherein the bush is a vertical bush having a vertical collar flatly supported on an interior side of the console on the bearing plate, the interior side facing the junction node.
4. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 2 , wherein the bush penetrates at least one of the cross member and a respective side member.
5. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 3 , wherein the bush penetrates at least one of the cross member and a respective side member.
6. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 2 , wherein the bush is welded to at least one of the cross member and a respective side member.
7. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 3 , wherein the bush is welded to at least one of the cross member and a respective side member.
8. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 4 , wherein the bush is welded to at least one of the cross member and a respective side member.
9. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing plate has a plane surface on an exterior side of the console facing away from the junction node.
10. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing plate has a plane surface on an interior side of the console facing the junction node.
11. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing plate projects from the junction node with respect to a surrounding area of the console that encloses the bearing plate.
12. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , wherein one of a respective side member and a respective passage opening is arranged in an area of an intersecting point between the respective side member and the cross member.
13. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , wherein the console has a receiving cup spaced apart from the bearing plate, the receiving cup being operatively configured for receiving a spring device.
14. The rearward-side body structure according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicle is a passenger car vehicle.
