VEHICLE SIDE PORTION STRUCTURE

摘要

A vehicle side portion structure is provided that can suppress or prevent separation at a joined portion between members at a time of a vehicle side collision. At a pillar outer reinforcement, a reinforcement upper and a reinforcement lower are joined at a joined portion by spot welding or the like. A hinge reinforcement is, in a state of spanning over this joined portion, joined to the reinforcement upper and the reinforcement lower. Therefore, when tensile force is applied to the pillar outer reinforcement, shearing force that acts on the joined portion can be reduced by reaction force obtained from the hinge reinforcement. Due thereto, at a time of a vehicle side collision, separation at the joined portion can be suppressed or prevented.

1. A vehicle side portion structure comprising:
a pillar outer panel that is disposed at a vehicle transverse direction outer side at a pillar that extends along a vehicle vertical direction; a pillar outer reinforcement that is disposed at a vehicle transverse direction inner side of the pillar outer panel, and that is divided along the vehicle vertical direction, and at which is provided a joined portion at which divisional members are joined so as to be superposed one on another; and a reinforcing member that is disposed at a vehicle transverse direction inner side of the pillar outer reinforcement, and that is joined to the pillar outer reinforcement so as to span over the joined portion.
