PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase rigidity of a steering hanger beam connected to first and second beams through a bracket, while suppressing the increase of its weight to the minimum.SOLUTION: A bracket 17 that connects a first beam 16 and second beams 18 and 20 of a steering hanger beam 12, which are mutually offset, comprises: a first opening 17a through which a vehicle width direction inner end part of the first beam 16 penetrates; a second opening 17b in which a vehicle width direction inner end part of the second beams 18 and 20 fits; and a third opening 17c that makes the first opening 17a and the second opening 17b communicate with each other. Since a reinforcement member 21 that fits in the third opening 17c abuts on outer circumferential surfaces 16a and 18a of the first beam 16 and the second beams 18 and 20, the first beam 16 and the second beams 18 and 20 are firmly integrated through the reinforcement member 21. Thus, stress concentration at a connection part of the first beam 16 and the second beams 18 and 20 is eased, and the steering hanger beam 12 is prevented from being deformed at a part of the bracket 17.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

    【課題】第1、第2ビームをブラケットを介して連結したステアリングハンガービームの強度を、重量の増加を最小限に抑えながら高める。【解決手段】ステアリングハンガービーム12の相互にオフセットされた第1ビーム16および第2ビーム18,20を連結するブラケット17は、第1ビーム16の車幅方向内端部が貫通する第1開口部17aと、第2ビーム18,20の車幅方向内端部が嵌合する第2開口部17bと、第1開口部17aおよび第2開口部17bを連通させる第3開口部17cとを備え、第3開口部17cに嵌合する補強部材21が第1ビーム16および第2ビーム18,20の外周面16a,18aに当接するので、第1ビーム16および第2ビーム18,20を補強部材21を介して強固に一体化し、第1、第2ビーム16;18,20の連結部における応力集中を緩和し、ブラケット17の部分でステアリングハンガービーム12が変形するのを防止する。【選択図】図1
