To effectively inhibit deformation of a junction between a wheel house and a suspension tower with a little increase in weight.SOLUTION: A wheel house structure 100 includes a wheel house 10 including a curved surface 13 that has a width-direction U-shaped section which is convex in a vehicular upward direction, and extends in a vehicular fore-and-aft direction in the form of an arc which is convex in the vehicular upward direction, a cylindrical suspension tower 20 disposed in an apex area in the vehicular fore-and-aft direction of the curved surface of a vehicular front side of the wheel house 10, and a reinforcement member 30 coupled to each of the curved surface 13 of the wheel house 10 and the periphery of the suspension tower 20. The reinforcement member 30 includes a projection 37 that extends in the vehicular fore-and-aft direction and links the curved surface 13 of the vehicular front side of the wheel house 10 with the periphery of the suspension tower 20. The curved surface 13 of the vehicular front side of the wheel house 10 and the periphery of the suspension tower 20 form a closed-section structure.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】少ない重量増加で効果的にホイールハウスとサスペンションタワーとの接続部の変形を抑制する。【解決手段】車両上方向に凸の幅方向U字断面で車両上方向に凸の円弧状に車両前後方向に延びる曲面部13を含むホイールハウス10と、ホイールハウス10の車両前方の曲面部の車両前後方向の頂点領域に設けられた円筒形のサスペンションタワー20と、ホイールハウス10の曲面部13とサスペンションタワー20の外周とに接続される補強部材30と、を含むホイールハウス部構造100であって、補強部材30は、車両前後方向に延びてホイールハウス10の車両前方の曲面部13とサスペンションタワー20の外周との間を車両前後方向に接続する突条部37を有し、ホイールハウス10の車両前方の曲面部13とサスペンションタワー20の外周とで閉断面構造を形成する。【選択図】図1
