PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a knee protector structure for a vehicle which can continuously generate a deformation load and can keep continuously absorbing a knee input load when a panel member moves close to a knee protector body.SOLUTION: A knee protector structure for a vehicle includes: a knee protector body 3 for receiving a knee input load from the knees K of an occupant; and an instrument panel 4 for covering a surface of the knee protector body 3 with a predetermined gap provided therebetween, the surface facing the knees K. The knee protector body 3 is provided with a bending guide section 34 for inducing bending of the instrument panel 4, the bending guide section being located at an intermediate section in the vertical direction of the vehicle. The instrument panel 4 is provided with a bendable section 41 bent by the bending guide section 34 and a contact surface section 42 located at an upper side of the vehicle than the bendable section 41. A plurality of ribs 44 arranged in the vertical direction of the vehicle are provided between the knee protector body 3 and the contact surface section 42. |
