Grille shutter device
A grille shutter device includes: a first bumper reinforcement extending in a vehicle width direction; and a shutter mechanism that is provided with a plurality of support members extending from the first bumper reinforcement in a direction intersecting with the vehicle width direction, is supported by the plurality of support members, and regulates a flow rate of air which flows into an engine room from a grille.
1. A grille shutter device comprising:
a first bumper reinforcement extending in a vehicle width direction; and
a shutter mechanism that is provided with a plurality of support members extending from the first bumper reinforcement in a direction intersecting with the vehicle width direction, is supported by the plurality of support members, and regulates a flow rate of air which flows into an engine room from a grille, wherein
the shutter mechanism includes a movable fin that is rotatably supported by the plurality of support members,
the movable fin has a distal portion provided with a seal member that is elastically deformable, and
a distance from a rotary shaft of the movable fin to a distal end of the seal member attached to the movable fin is set to be longer than a distance from the rotary shaft of the movable fin to the first bumper reinforcement, and a distance from the rotary shaft of the movable fin to the distal portion of the movable fin not including the seal member is set to be shorter than a distance from the rotary shaft of the movable fin to the first bumper reinforcement.
