ABSTRACT:
An automobile hinge structure has one of a hinge male member and a hinge female member configured by side pieces which have hinge pin holes and are arranged in parallel with a space therebetween, a vertical front piece for connecting the side pieces, and a base piece. The front piece is disposed to be substantially orthogonal with the base piece in a plan view. Such hinge structure has an L-shaped plan view and a square C-shaped vertical cross section with reduction of plate thickness and weight of hinge members, high strength and high rigidity. The reduction in the plate thickness facilitates forming and simplifies a forming mold.
