the seat brackets adjacent to the floor tunnel include front seat brackets disposed forward of the floor cross member in the vehicle front-rear direction, and rear seat brackets disposed rearward of the floor cross member in the vehicle front-rear direction, each of the front seat brackets and the rear seat brackets including a seat bracket disposed on each side of the tunnel in the vehicle width direction, and the front seat brackets are coupled to the second tunnel reinforcing members, which extend in the vehicle front-rear direction across the tunnel side walls and the tunnel upper wall,
the floor cross member has an upper wall to form an upper surface thereof, a front wall on a front side thereof in the vehicle front-rear direction, and a rear wall on a rear side thereof in the vehicle front-rear direction,
the front seat brackets each have a first flange coupled to the front wall and the rear seat brackets each have a first flange coupled to the rear wall of the floor cross member, and each of the front seat brackets and the rear seat brackets have a second flange coupled to the upper wall, and a third flange positioned on an inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the second flange, and
the third flange has at least a portion thereof coupled to the first tunnel reinforcing member via the floor tunnel.
2. The lower vehicle-body structure according to claim 1 , wherein the second flanges respectively positioned on a front side and a rear side in the vehicle front-rear direction of the seat brackets are disposed apart from each other in the vehicle front-rear direction and have inclined portions which are more inclined in the vehicle front-rear direction toward the floor tunnel.
3. A lower vehicle-body structure, comprising:
a floor cross member coupling a side sill disposed on an outer side in a vehicle width direction of a vehicle body to a floor tunnel disposed in a center in the vehicle width direction of the vehicle body, and disposed so as to be held between seat brackets in a vehicle front-rear direction; and
a tunnel reinforcing member provided in the floor tunnel,
wherein
the tunnel reinforcing member includes a first tunnel reinforcing member disposed at a position to overlap in the vehicle front-rear direction with the floor cross member, and second tunnel reinforcing members disposed at positions to overlap in the vehicle width direction at least partly with the seat brackets,
the seat brackets are coupled to the floor cross member,
the first tunnel reinforcing member is coupled to the floor cross member via the floor tunnel, and
the floor cross member is disposed at a position to at least partly overlap in the vehicle front-rear direction with a front end in the vehicle front-rear direction of a center pillar.
4. The lower vehicle-body structure according to claim 3 , wherein
an outer end in the vehicle width direction of the floor cross member is provided with a widened portion having a wider width in the vehicle front-rear direction toward an outer side in the vehicle width direction, and
a front end in the vehicle front-rear direction of the widened portion, which is coupled to the side sill, is disposed forward with respect to the center pillar.
5. The lower vehicle-body structure according to claim 3 , wherein
the floor tunnel has tunnel side walls facing the side sill, and a tunnel upper wall connecting upper ends of the tunnel side walls, and
the seat brackets include front seat brackets disposed forward of the floor cross member in the vehicle front-rear direction, the front seat brackets including a seat bracket disposed on each side of the tunnel in the vehicle width direction, and the front seat brackets are coupled to the second tunnel reinforcing members, which extend in the vehicle front-rear direction across the tunnel side walls and the tunnel upper wall.
6. The lower vehicle-body structure according to claim 5 , wherein
the floor cross member has an upper wall to form an upper surface thereof, a front wall on a front side thereof in the vehicle front-rear direction, and a rear wall on a rear side thereof in the vehicle front-rear direction,
the seat brackets each have a first flange coupled to one of the front wall and the rear wall of the floor cross member, a second flange coupled to the upper wall, and a third flange positioned on an inner side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the second flange, and
the third flange has at least a portion thereof coupled to the first tunnel reinforcing member via the floor tunnel.
7. The lower vehicle-body structure according to claim 6 , wherein the second flanges respectively positioned on a front side and a rear side in the vehicle front-rear direction of the seat brackets are disposed apart from each other in the vehicle front-rear direction and have inclined portions which are more inclined in the vehicle front-rear direction toward the floor tunnel.
