  • Publication number: 20170088179
    Abstract: In a vehicle-body front structure, a left upper member extends from a left front pillar to the vehicle front side. The left upper member extends substantially horizontally from the left front pillar to a left damper housing, and extends in an inclined manner from the left damper housing to the lower portion. Also, a front member extending in an inclined manner of the left upper member is formed in a substantially M shape in side view such that the front member includes three curve portions of a front curve portion, a center curve portion, and a rear curve portion formed sequentially toward the vehicle rear side.

  • Patent number: 8870273
    Abstract: An engine mount support structure provided in the front section of a vehicle body. A lower front support component and lower rear support component of the engine mount are installed to a frame-side front joining component and frame-side rear joining component, the frame-side front joining component and frame-side rear joining component being formed at the front and rear direction of the front side frame. An upper support component of the engine mount is supported by the upper member via a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket forms a V-shape and includes a front mounting component and rear mounting component respectively installed to a member-side front joining component and member-side rear joining component of the upper member; and an inner mounting component onto which the upper support component is installed.

  • Patent number: 8764104
    Abstract: A structure of the front section of a vehicle body is disposed on the front end portion of a front side frame on the same position as the rear surface of a side stay in the front-rear direction of the vehicle body, and includes a first extending portion extending downward along the rear surface of the side stay. A lower stay is provided with a second extending portion extending outward in the vehicle width direction beyond the side stay to a position below the first extending portion. A joining section is formed so as to join the front surface of the first extending portion, the upper surface of the second extending portion, and outside surface of the side stay. The joining section defines an arrangement region for inner and outer shock absorbing members having a lower rigidity than the front side frame.

  • Patent number: 8403404
    Abstract: A vehicle body front structure is disclosed in which a cooling system component is provided to an upper beam and a lower beam of a front bulkhead. A vehicle body front structure comprises a left top support mechanism provided to the upper beam and a left bottom support mechanism provided to the upper beam. The left top support mechanism supports a left top part of the cooling system component, and supports the left top part of the cooling system component so as to allow the left top part to move toward the rear of the vehicle body. The left bottom support mechanism supports a left bottom part of the cooling system component, and supports the left bottom part of the cooling system component so as to allow the left bottom part to move toward the rear of the vehicle body.
