  • Patent number: 12528354
    Abstract: An instrument panel includes a groove extending in a direction intersecting with a vehicle width direction and provided on one side of an opening of the instrument panel in the vehicle width direction, at a position offset from the opening in the vehicle width direction, and a first stepped portion and a second stepped portion that are configured to restrain liquid from flowing toward the opening in a case where the liquid flows into the groove and overflows the groove. In this configuration, since dripping of the liquid to an inside of the instrument panel is suppressed, the dripping of the liquid onto target components disposed below the opening is suppressed, without a need to provide a liquid shielding plate or a drip-proof sheet.
