AIRFLOW GUIDE STRUCTURE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2021088234
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To suppress a material cost while reducing air resistance caused by travel wind, in an airflow guide structure provided on a cargo box of a vehicle.SOLUTION: An airflow guide structure 1 installed on a cargo box 2 of a vehicle is provided with a pair of airflow guide members 7 each having a curved airflow guide surface 8 protruding forward from an upper corner portion 24 on a front surface 22 of the cargo box 2. The pair of airflow guide members 7 are arranged spaced apart from each other in a vehicle width direction WD. When a vehicle is travelling, travelling wind flows along the airflow guide surface 8, which locally reduces air resistance at the corner portion 24. Further, by arranging the pair of wind guide members 7 spaced apart, a material is reduced as compared with the case where the wind guide members are installed over the entire length in the vehicle width direction WD on the front surface 22 of the cargo box 2.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
