Vehicle front portion structure
A vehicle front portion structure including: a front side member that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction at a vehicle transverse direction outer side portion of a vehicle front portion and includes a projecting portion that projects-out toward a vehicle transverse direction outer side at an outer side wall at a front end portion; a spacer that is provided at a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the front side member and is fastened to the outer side wall at a vehicle front side of the projecting portion, and that has an adjacent portion that is adjacent to a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the projecting portion; and an engaging portion that is formed at the spacer and is disposed at a vehicle front side with respect to the projecting portion, and that engages with a front end of the projecting portion in the vehicle longitudinal direction.
1. A vehicle front portion structure comprising:
a front side member that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction at a vehicle transverse direction outer side portion of a vehicle front portion, and that includes a plurality of projecting portions that project out toward a vehicle transverse direction outer side at an outer side wall at a front end portion, the plurality of the projecting portions being provided at the outer side wall, extending in the vehicle longitudinal direction, and being disposed so as to be lined-up in a vehicle vertical direction;
a spacer that is provided at a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the front side member so as to overlap with outer walls of the projecting portions, that is fastened to the outer side wall at a vehicle front side of the projecting portions, and that has an adjacent portion that is adjacent to a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the projecting portions; and
an engaging portion that is formed at the spacer, that is disposed at a vehicle front side with respect to the projecting portions, and that is structured to be able to engage with a front end of the projecting portions in the vehicle longitudinal direction,
wherein, in a case in which a predetermined collision load toward a vehicle rear side is inputted to the spacer, the adjacent portion abuts the outer walls of the projecting portions at the vehicle transverse outer side.
2. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 1 , wherein a gap is formed between the front end of the projecting portions and the engaging portion.
3. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 1 , wherein the spacer is fastened to the projecting portions in addition to the outer side wall.
4. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 1 , wherein, as seen in a side view, a rear end of the spacer is disposed so as to overlap the projecting portions.
5. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 1 , wherein the spacer includes a side wall portion which abuts the outer side wall of the front side member, the engaging portion extends out toward the vehicle transverse direction outer side from a rear end of the side wall portion, and the adjacent portion extends from a rear end of the engaging portion.
6. A vehicle front portion structure comprising:
a front side member that extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction at a vehicle transverse direction outer side portion of a vehicle front portion, and that includes a projecting portion that projects-out toward a vehicle transverse direction outer side at an outer side wall at a front end portion;
a spacer that is provided at a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the front side member so as to overlap with an outer wall of the projecting portion, that is fastened to the outer side wall at a vehicle front side of the projecting portion, and that has an adjacent portion that is adjacent to a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the projecting portion; and
an engaging portion that is formed at the spacer, that is disposed at a vehicle front side with respect to the projecting portion, and that is structured to be able to engage with a front end of the projecting portion in the vehicle longitudinal direction,
wherein, in a case in which a predetermined collision load toward a vehicle rear side is inputted to the spacer, the adjacent portion abuts the outer wall of the projecting portion at the vehicle transverse outer side, and
wherein the spacer includes a side wall portion which abuts the outer side wall of the front side member, the engaging portion extends out toward the vehicle transverse direction outer side from a rear end of the side wall portion, and the adjacent portion extends from a rear end of the engaging portion.
7. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 6 , wherein a gap is formed between the front end of the projecting portion and the engaging portion.
8. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 6 , wherein:
a plurality of the projecting portions are provided at the outer side wall, and extend in the vehicle longitudinal direction; and
the plurality of the projecting portions are disposed so as to be lined-up in a vehicle vertical direction.
9. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 6 , wherein the spacer is fastened to the projecting portion in addition to the outer side wall.
10. The vehicle front portion structure of claim 6 , wherein, as seen in a side view, a rear end of the spacer is disposed so as to overlap the projecting portion.
