Abstract
A vehicle undercover is provided with: a plate-shaped body made of a porous material such as a fiber body or a foam; and a support body supporting the plate-shaped body. The support body has a groove-shaped first frame part having a transverse plate and longitudinal plates extending from both edges of the transverse plate. Further, the support body has a second frame part provided across the first frame part and having a smaller dimension of protrusion toward the inside of a vehicle than the first frame part.

A vehicle undercover comprising:
- a plate-shaped body that is porous;
- and
- a support body to support the plate-shaped body,
- wherein the support body includes:
- a first frame part having a groove shape, and including a transverse plate and longitudinal plates respectively extending from both edges of the transverse plate;
- and
- a second frame part provided so as to intersect with the first frame part and having a smaller protruding dimension toward a vehicle inner side than a protruding dimension of the first frame part.
A manufacturing method for a vehicle undercover, wherein the manufacturing method comprises:
- setting a plate-shaped body, that is porous, in a molding die;
- molding, in the molding die, a support body made of a synthetic resin and including a first frame part and a second frame part, in which the first frame part has a groove shape formed by a transverse plate and longitudinal plates respectively extending from both edges of the transverse plate, and the second frame part is provided so as to intersect with the first frame part and has a smaller protruding dimension toward a vehicle inner side than a protruding dimension of the first frame part;
- and
- obtaining a vehicle undercover in which the plate-shaped body and the support body are joined.
