  • Patent number: 10399604
    Abstract: A projection portion projecting in the same direction as an offset portion is provided between a welding-spot portion and a joining portion joined to a rear side member in a lower back panel. Accordingly, when a tensile force directed outwardly in the vehicle width direction is applied to the lower back panel, the projection portion is extended by the tensile force thus applied and is displaced toward the opposite side of the projecting direction of the projection portion, that is, toward the opposite side of the offset direction. Hereby, a stress applied to the welding-spot portion in an inclined wall portion can be reduced. This makes it possible to restrain weight and cost and to also restrain stresses applied to the welding-spot portion from the lower back panel and a rear floor pan when a load is input from a towing hitch member.

  • Publication number: 20070156925
    Abstract: A PC is comprised of a processing device 1 which performs processings such as converting manipulated data into a human-comprehensible format or data updating according to entered information, a display device 3 which presents information such as images and sounds to the user, a storage device 4 which stores data temporarily converted into information such as data to be handled, images and sounds, and a connection device 5 which establishes connection with other PCs and PDAs via a connection medium such as the Internet or a USB cable. This configuration allows transfer of application data by a program capable of manipulating such data after its conversion into basic data and allows application data to be manipulated (worked with) even on PDAs lacking means for directly handling application data.
