VEHICLE BODY FLOOR STRUCTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240317319 titled 'VEHICLE BODY FLOOR STRUCTURE
The vehicle body floor structure described in the patent application consists of a floor with a front panel at the front and a rear panel at the rear, with the rear panel positioned above the front panel. Lower longitudinal beams are located on both sides of the floor in the vehicle width direction, along with a floor cross beam connected to the lower longitudinal beams on the outer sides in the vehicle width direction. Additionally, there is a floor tunnel connected to the center of the floor cross beam in the vehicle width direction. The floor cross beam includes a step portion above the floor tunnel, which is curved upward while extending from both ends toward the center when viewed from a front angle between the lower longitudinal beams.
