Vehicle body pillar structure and vehicle body structure
A vehicle body pillar structure includes a cylindrical member and an outer layer member. The cylindrical member is formed from a carbon fiber-reinforced resin. The outer layer member is provided on an outer circumference of the cylindrical member and is formed from a carbon fiber-reinforced resin. The outer layer member includes a recessed groove provided on a surface of the outer layer member closer to the cylindrical member, recessed in a direction away from the cylindrical member, and extending along an axial direction of the cylindrical member. A fiber-reinforced resin is disposed in the recessed groove. The fiber-reinforced resin contains continuous fibers wound around pin members provided on both axial sides of the recessed groove and is oriented along the axial direction of the cylindrical member.
1. A vehicle body pillar structure comprising:
a cylindrical member formed from a carbon fiber-reinforced resin; and
an outer layer member provided on an outer circumference of the cylindrical member and formed from a carbon fiber-reinforced resin, wherein
the outer layer member comprises a recessed groove provided on a surface of the outer layer member closer to the cylindrical member, recessed in a direction away from the cylindrical member, and extending along an axial direction of the cylindrical member, and
a fiber-reinforced resin is disposed in the recessed groove, the fiber-reinforced resin containing continuous fibers wound around pin members provided on both axial sides of the recessed groove and being oriented along the axial direction of the cylindrical member.
2. The vehicle body pillar structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the pin members are used as part of a coupling structure configured to couple the vehicle body pillar structure to a vehicle body structural member.
3. The vehicle body pillar structure according to claim 2 , wherein
the pin members each have a bolt hole or comprise a coupling member, the bolt hole or the coupling member being configured to couple the vehicle body pillar structure to the vehicle body structural member.
4. The vehicle body pillar structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the continuous fibers of the fiber-reinforced resin filled in the recessed groove comprise fibers different from carbon fibers.
5. A vehicle body structure comprising
a vehicle body pillar structure comprising:
a cylindrical member formed from a carbon fiber-reinforced resin; and
an outer layer member provided on an outer circumference of the cylindrical member and formed from a carbon fiber-reinforced resin, wherein
the outer layer member comprises a recessed groove provided on a surface of the outer layer member closer to the cylindrical member, recessed in a direction away from the cylindrical member, and extending along an axial direction of the cylindrical member, and
a fiber-reinforced resin is disposed in the recessed groove, the fiber-reinforced resin containing continuous fibers wound around pin members provided on both axial sides of the recessed groove and being oriented along the axial direction of the cylindrical member.
