Abstract

A vehicle front structure includes left and right side frames and a sub-frame disposed below the left and right side frames. The sub-frame includes a cross member, which connects rear end portions of left and right side members, and a support unit, which supports a steering gear box at front end portions of the left and right side members. The steering gear box is supported by the support unit so as to be located in a vehicle-front-side region of the power plant. The support unit is capable of being broken by an impact load so that the steering gear box is dropped when the impact load is applied.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a front structure of a vehicle which is provided with a steering gear box on the sub-frame and a power device above the sub-frame. Background technique [0002] Among vehicle front structures, there is known a structure in which left and right front side members extend along the vehicle front-rear direction, left and right extensions extend from the middle of the left and right front side members toward the inside in the vehicle width direction, and the left and right extensions A steering gear box is mounted on the top (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] By erecting the steering gear box on the left and right extensions, the steering gear box can also be used as a beam. Thereby, the beam can be eliminated, so that the weight of the vehicle can be reduced. [0004] However, the steering gear box of Patent Document 1 extends in the vehicle width direction along the dash panel. The engine compartment is separat...
