Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, when the distance between the roof and the vehicle inner panel is not uniform, it is difficult to ensure the watertightness of the hole formed in the roof
There is a problem that rainwater infiltrates into the car through the hole, reducing the value of the product
In addition, when a load is added to the roof rail, the positional relationship between the roof rail and the hole formed in the roof will change, so there is a problem that the possibility of rainwater intrusion increases.

Abstract

The installation structure of a roof rail in which the roof rail is attached to a vehicle inner panel provided underneath a roof panel, through a hole part provided in a roof panel, the installation structure includes: a protruding part which is provided protruding downward from a lower surface of the roof rail, is inserted into the hole part with a gap in-between, and is attached to an upper surface of the vehicle inner panel; and a watertight part which encloses the protruding part, and is flattened between the lower surface of the roof rail and the upper surface of the roof panel, wherein a part of the watertight part extends through the hole part and protrudes beyond the lower surface of the roof panel.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a mounting structure of a roof rail of a vehicle. Background technique [0002] The contents of Japanese Patent Application No. 2007-319825 with a filing date of December 11, 2007 from which priority is claimed are incorporated herein by reference. [0003] On both sides of the width direction of the roof of the vehicle, such as Figure 5 As shown, there may be a pair of roof side rails 101 provided for loading luggage or the like. Such as Figure 6A , Figure 6B As shown, a structure in which the roof side sill 101 is fastened and fixed with bolts is generally adopted at a portion where the strength of the joint portion between the roof panel 104 and the body side panel 105 is ensured. [0004] For example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-095185, a roof side rail is attached at a position away from the junction of the roof and the side panel of the vehicle body. A reinforcing element is provided at ...
