Deformation suppressing structure of vehicle
A deformation suppressing structure of a vehicle includes a dash panel separating a driving unit space for installing a weight component and a vehicle interior space for a passenger to ride, a brake component disposed inside the driving unit space and between the weight component and the dash panel to control a hydraulic pressure of a brake system, and a protecting member fixed to the dash panel and accommodating the brake component. The protecting member includes a guide surface configured such that a contact point at which the guide surface contacts the weight component changes during a backward movement of the weight component at the time of a collision of the vehicle, and a contacting portion arranged to contact the dash panel at a location above a fixing point at which the protecting member and the dash panel are fixed to each other and above the contact point.
1. A deformation suppressing structure of a vehicle, the deformation suppressing structure being configured to suppress a deformation of the vehicle at a time of a collision, the deformation suppressing structure comprising:
a dash panel separating a driving unit space on a front side of the vehicle and a vehicle interior space on a rear side of the vehicle from each other, the driving unit space providing a space for installing a weight component, and the vehicle interior space providing a space for a passenger to ride on the vehicle;
a brake component for controlling a hydraulic pressure of a brake system disposed inside the driving unit space and between the weight component and the dash panel; and
a protecting member fixed to the dash panel and accommodating the brake component inside the protecting member,
wherein the protecting member comprises:
a guide surface arranged to face the weight component and configured such that a contact point at which the guide surface contacts the weight component changes during a backward movement of the weight component at the time of the collision of the vehicle;
a contacting portion arranged to contact the dash panel at a location above a fixing point at which the protecting member and the dash panel are fixed to each other and above the contact point,
wherein the brake component comprises a control board configured to switch a flow channel of a hydraulic pressure circuit portion, and
wherein an upper part of the protecting member is arranged above an upper part of the control board such that a space is formed between the protecting member and the upper part of the control board.
