Vehicle side door structure and passenger protecting system

摘要

A vehicle side door structure has: a door outer panel; a door inner panel having a service hole; a door trim mounted to a vehicle transverse direction inner side of the inner panel; an inner pad provided, between the inner panel and the trim, spanning, in a vehicle longitudinal direction, over an outer peripheral edge of the hole as seen in a vehicle side view; and an outer pad between the outer and inner panels overlapping a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the inner pad as seen in a vehicle side view, and having a first region that, at a side collision, is pushed by the outer panel and passes through the hole and pushes the inner pad toward the trim side, and a second region that, at a side collision, separates from the first region and pushes the inner pad toward the trim side via the inner panel.

主权项

1. A vehicle side door structure comprising:
a door outer panel that is disposed at a vehicle transverse direction outer side; a door inner panel that is disposed at a vehicle transverse direction inner side, and is formed in a shape of a bag together with the door outer panel, and in which a service hole is formed in an intermediate portion in a vehicle longitudinal direction; a door trim that is mounted to a vehicle transverse direction inner side of the door inner panel; an inner pad that is disposed between the door inner panel and the door trim, and is provided so as to span, in the vehicle longitudinal direction, over an outer peripheral edge of the service hole as seen in a vehicle side view, and that absorbs impact from a vehicle side surface; and an outer pad that is disposed between the door outer panel and the door inner panel, and is provided so as to overlap a vehicle transverse direction outer side of the inner pad as seen in a vehicle side view, and that has a first region that, at a time of a side collision, is pushed by the door outer panel, passes-through the service hole and pushes the inner pad toward the door trim side, and a second region that, at a time of a side collision, separates from the first region along the outer peripheral edge of the service hole, and, independently of the first region, pushes the inner pad toward the door trim side via the door inner panel.
