Abstract:
In a vehicle-body structure in which a roof side rail portion of a side face portion of a vehicle body and a roof reinforcement are connected via a gusset so as to suppress that a center pillar portion comes into a cabin side when a large load is inputted from a vehicle side, a notch portion is provided at the gusset. Thereby, it is suppressed that, when the large load is inputted to the center pillar portion from the vehicle side, the gusset is so bending-deformed by a rotation of the roof side rail portion that a rotational moment caused by the rotation of the roof side rail portion acts on the roof reinforcement, suppressing that the center pillar portion comes into the cabin side.

Claim (Index 1):
An upper vehicle-body structure of a vehicle, comprising:\n a pair of right-and-left roof side rails provided at both-side portions of a roof portion of a vehicle body and extending in a vehicle-body longitudinal direction; a pair of right-and-left center pillars provided at both-side portions of the vehicle body and extending in a vertical direction, respective upper end portions of which are joined to the pair of roof side rails; a roof reinforcement extending in a vehicle-body width direction, right-and-left both end portions of which are joined to the pair of roof side rails at the same positions, in the vehicle-body longitudinal direction, as respective joint portions of the pair of roof side rails to the pair of center pillars; and a pair of right-and-left gussets connecting respective lower portions of the pair of roof side rails and respective end portions of the roof reinforcement, each of the pair of gussets having a bending-causing portion to cause the gusset to be bending-deformed inward, in the vehicle-body width direction, when a load is inputted from a vehicle side.
