Title:
PIPE-LIKE REINFORCEMENT MEMBER FOR VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/093069
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A pipe-like reinforcement member for a vehicle is configured so that the reinforcement performance of a pipe section is consistently obtained by preventing the buckling of a mounting section. A pipe-like reinforcement member for a vehicle is configured in such a manner that a mounting seat (32) is provided protruding to the seating surface (32f) side through a cylindrical section (38), and consequently, the pipe-like reinforcement member can be firmly affixed by mounting the pipe-like reinforcement member so that the seating surface (32f) thereof is in close contact with an object (20) to which the pipe-like reinforcement member is to be mounted. Side end sections located on both sides of the cylindrical section (38) are respectively provided with side flanges (40, 42), and in a cross-section perpendicular to the centerline (O) of a pipe section (12), bens (44, 46) which are recessed in a U-shape to the side opposite the seating surface (32f) are formed on both sides of the mounting seat (32) by the cylindrical section (38) and the side flanges (40, 42). Consequently, the rigidity against an external force having a component in the longitudinal direction of the pipe section (12) is increased to prevent the buckling of a mounting section (14). As a result, the reinforcement performance of the pipe section (12) can be consistently obtained.
