Abstract: In a vehicle, an elastic member is interposed between a first joining member joined to a body side and a second joining member joined to a battery case side in a joining portion between a body constituting a framework of the vehicle and a battery case mounted below a floor panel of the vehicle. Thus, the battery case that is a heavy object functions as a dynamic damper and suppresses vibration of the body. In addition, a protruding portion protruding from the second joining member is provided in the first gap provided between the first joining member and the second joining member. Accordingly, the load input to the body can be quickly conveyed to the battery case side through the protruding portion and dispersed. Accordingly, the impact resistance in the event of a collision can be improved.

Abstract: A mounting structure for a vehicle communication device includes an instrument panel, a vehicle communication device, and an air conditioning duct. The vehicle communication device is disposed inside the instrument panel and mounted on the instrument panel. The air conditioning duct is part of a vehicle air conditioner and includes a connection portion connected to the vehicle communication device. A portion of the air conditioning duct different from the connection portion is fixed to, and supported by, the instrument panel.

Abstract: In a windshield glass support structure, a lower end of a windshield glass is supported at an upper end of a cowl portion across the entire width in the vehicle width direction. The cowl portion is open toward the front of a vehicle body with a cowl outer which forms an upper portion of the cowl portion and a cowl inner which forms a lower portion of the cowl portion. Braces which form a closed cross-section with the cowl portion connect the cowl outer with the cowl inner at positions dividing the cowl portion into three substantially equal parts in the vehicle width direction.
