Vehicle body lateral section structure
A vehicle body lateral section structure ( 10 ) is provided with a center pillar inner ( 41 ), a center pillar stiffener ( 42 ), a partitioning member ( 13 ), a filling material, a center pillar outer ( 43 ), and a sound insulation member ( 14 ). The center pillar stiffener forms a first closed cross-sectional portion ( 50 ) together with the center pillar inner. The partitioning member partitions a filling space ( 62 ) communicating with a first filling port and a second filling port inside the first closed cross-sectional portion. The center pillar outer forms a second closed cross-sectional portion ( 60 ) together with the center pillar stiffener. The sound insulation member is provided inside the second closed cross-sectional portion and foams when heated.
1. A vehicle body lateral section structure comprising:
an inner panel that has a filling port and an opening;
a stiffener that is attached along the inner panel and forms a first closed cross-sectional portion together with the inner panel;
a partitioning member that is provided inside the first closed cross-sectional portion through the opening and partitions a filling space communicating with the filling port inside the first closed cross-sectional portion;
a foamable filling material that fills the filling space through the filling port;
a side outer panel that covers the stiffener and forms a second closed cross-sectional portion together with the stiffener; and
a sound insulation member that is provided inside the second closed cross-sectional portion and foams when heated.
2. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 1 , wherein the partitioning member has a door portion that opens and closes to allow a fixing clip of the sound insulation member to pass.
3. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 2 , wherein the door portion is supported to be openable and closable with a door hinge made of a resin.
4. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 1 , wherein the partitioning member has a fixing knob portion provided inside the first closed cross-sectional portion and facing the opening.
5. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first closed cross-sectional portion has a pair of inclined portions facing each other, and in the pair of inclined portions, a stiffener rear inclined portion has a smaller inclination angle than a stiffener front inclined portion,
wherein the partitioning member is divided into at least two portions via a bending hinge made of a resin and has a first partitioning portion and a second partitioning portion that come into contact with the pair of inclined portions, and
wherein, in the first partitioning portion and the second partitioning portion, the partitioning portion that comes into contact with the stiffener rear inclined portion has a clip portion that is locked to a fixing hole that opens in the filling space.
6. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 1 , wherein the first closed cross-sectional portion has a larger cross section than the second closed cross-sectional portion, and the filling space partitioned inside is filled with a filling material which is a foaming material.
7. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 6 , wherein the second closed cross-sectional portion is formed on a side opposite to the inner panel with respect to the first closed cross-sectional portion and is blocked with the sound insulation member that foams when heated.
8. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 5 , wherein at least one of the first partitioning portion and the second partitioning portion has a horizontal portion, an inclined portion, and a raised portion straddling the horizontal portion and the inclined portion.
9. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 5 , wherein, in the first partitioning portion and the second partitioning portion, the partitioning portion that comes into contact with the stiffener rear inclined portion has a holding knob portion for holding a posture at a position near the filling port and facing the opening in a state where the partitioning member is provided inside the first closed cross-sectional portion.
10. The vehicle body lateral section structure according to claim 5 , wherein at least one of the first partitioning portion and the second partitioning portion has a bottom rib that comes into contact with a wall portion which partitions an end portion of the first closed cross-sectional portion.
