Vehicle door and manufacturing method of vehicle door
A door for a vehicle comprises an outer panel and an inner panel joined to the outer panel by an adhesive. An outer surface of the inner panel includes an outer surface main part crossing a bonding direction of the inner panel and the outer panel at a first crossing angle, and an outer surface inclined part connected to the outer surface main part via a corner portion so as to form a ridge line and crossing the bonding direction at a second crossing angle smaller than the first crossing angle. A part of the corner portion having the adhesive deposited thereon is provided with a recess and a pair of first ribs are formed in a part of the outer surface main part adjacent to the corner portion in a mutually spaced apart relationship on either side of the recess, the first ribs being inclined such that a spacing between the first ribs becomes smaller toward the corner portion.
1 . A door for a vehicle, comprising: an outer panel positioned on an exterior of the vehicle; and an inner panel positioned on an interior of the vehicle and joined to the outer panel by an adhesive,
wherein an outer surface of the inner panel includes an outer surface main part crossing a bonding direction of the inner panel and the outer panel at a first crossing angle, and an outer surface inclined part connected to the outer surface main part via a corner portion so as to form a ridge line and crossing the bonding direction at a second crossing angle smaller than the first crossing angle,
wherein an inner surface of the outer panel includes an inner surface main part that opposes the outer surface main part, and an inner surface inclined part that opposes the outer surface inclined part, and
wherein a part of the corner portion having a part of the adhesive deposited thereon is provided with a recess, and a pair of first ribs are formed in a part of the outer surface main part adjacent to the corner portion in a mutually spaced apart relationship on either side of the recess, the first ribs being inclined such that a spacing between the first ribs becomes smaller toward the corner portion.
2 . The door for the vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein a pair of second ribs are formed in a part of the outer surface inclined part adjacent to the corner portion in a mutually spaced apart relationship on either side of the recess.
3 . The door for the vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the second ribs extend parallel to each other.
4 . The door for the vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein a spacing between ends of the first ribs adjacent to the corner portion and a spacing between the second ribs are equal to each other.
5 . The door for the vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the first ribs are in contact with the inner surface main part, and the second ribs are in contact with the inner surface inclined part.
6 . A method of manufacturing the door for the vehicle according to claim 1 , comprising the steps of:
applying the adhesive to the outer surface of the inner panel;
placing the outer panel in a position corresponding to the outer surface of the inner panel; and
moving the inner panel and the outer panel in the bonding direction toward each other to adhere the adhesive to the inner surface of the outer panel.
