Patent

CA 2247869

An upper cross member and a lower cross member are formed integrally together to include a cross member having the shape of a box in cross section, and to the front and rear sides thereof are joined floor panels of an automobile. A trunk room or storage space is formed between right and left side frames to which are joined both ends of the cross member. A lid for opening and closing an opening located in space between a front seat and a center seat of the automobile is pivotally supported by the cross member that forms a portion of the upper wall of the trunk room. The lid is normally locked to the floor panel by a locking mechanism having a grip. The lid when opened is maintained at its open position by anchoring a hook attached to an end of a wire to an engaging portion provided at the back of the front seat. Thus, the trunk room is formed under the lower surfaces of the floor panels, enabling a spare tire or other articles to be easily put therein or taken out therefrom, yet maintaining rigidity of the car body.

Membre transversal supérieur et membre transversal inférieur incorporés de manière à inclure un élément transversal présentant la forme d'une boîte en section transversale, aux parois latérales avant et arrière desquelles sont reliés des panneaux de plancher d'automobile. Un coffre ou un espace de rangement est aménagé entre les éléments droit et gauche du châssis auxquels sont reliées les deux extrémités du membre transversal. Un couvercle dégageant et couvrant une ouverture située entre le siège avant et le siège central de l'automobile est supporté, de manière à tourner, par le membre transversal formant une partie de la paroi supérieure du coffre. Le couvercle est habituellement verrouillé au plancher au moyen d'un mécanisme de verrouillage doté d'une poignée. Lorsque le couvercle est relevé, il est maintenu en position ouverte en fixant un crochet relié à une extrémité d'un fil à un élément de fixation situé à l'arrière du siège avant. Le plancher du coffre est ainsi situé sous les surfaces inférieures des panneaux de plancher, ce qui permet d'y ranger ou d'en retirer facilement un pneu de secours ou d'autres articles, tout en assurant la rigidité de la carrosserie.
