A front end structure for an automobile includes a resin-made shroud panel 5 supporting a radiator R. The front end structure further includes: a panel support member 6 supporting the shroud panel 5 against right and left front side frames 3, 3 and right and left apron rein members 4, 4; and joint parts 66, 68, 68 fixing an upper part 51 of the shroud panel 5 to the panel support member 6 and allowing, when an impact load works on the shroud panel 5 from the front of the automobile, the upper part 51 to separate from the panel support member 6.
摘要:
In a vehicle structure for an automobile including a crash box 3 at a distal end of a vehicle frame 1 extending in the longitudinal direction of the automobile, the crash box 3 has a substantially cross shape (a substantially boxed cross shape) in closed section. Specifically, four substantially rectangular protrusions 35, 36, 37, 38 extend upward, downward, rightward, and leftward. The lengths of the sides of the protrusions 35, 36, 37, 38 are almost equal to each other. Each angle α of the corners 39, 40 between the sides is substantially a right angle (90 degrees). Hence, the crash box 3 can definitely exhibit impact energy absorbing performance not only upon receipt of a load from the front but also upon receipt of a load offset in the car width direction by being buckled and deformed definitely.

The invention provides a structure of a front part of a vehicle body that is simple and free from the risk of maloperation. In the event of a collision between the vehicle and a pedestrian, a projecting part sweeps the pedestrian by parts of his or her legs lower than the knees in the event of a collision between the vehicle and the pedestrian, causing the pedestrian to be thrown over toward the vehicle, and after an energy-absorbing member has absorbed impact energy exerted on the legs, the pedestrian is caused to drop onto the top of a hood and protected from secondary damage. In one specific example, a structure of a front part of a vehicle body in which a bumper (9) is provided at a lower front position of a hood (1) of the vehicle comprises a lateral supporting member (7) provided in the front part of the vehicle body and extending in the direction of vehicle width, an energy-absorbing member (8) provided ahead of the lateral supporting member (7), and a projecting part (12) provided at a lower part of the bumper 9 in such a manner that a forward end of the projecting part (12) juts out more frontward than the lateral supporting member (7).

摘要:
Part of a front side frame (3A,3B) is configured to be deformed so as to bend outwardly, in a vehicle width direction, by a collision load in a vehicle frontal collision. A sub frame (7) provided at a lower portion of a front vehicle body is joined to the front side frame (3) via a reinforcement (15). A front portion of the reinforcement (15) is located at a position which corresponds to a bending portion (T1) of the front side frame (3A,3B) which is to be deformed so as to bend outwardly, in the vehicle width direction, by the collision load in the vehicle frontal collision. Accordingly, the bending of the front side frame at its bending portion when the collision load acts in the vehicle frontal collision can be promoted, so that the collision load against passengers can be decreased securely.

A crash can 3 with a cross-shaped cross section is provided between a side frame 1 and a bumper beam 2. The crash can connects to an end portion of the side frame in a state where its four projecting portions 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d are directed respectively in upper, lower, right and left directions. The bumper beam 2 comprises a protruding portion 33 which extends in the vehicle width direction. The right and left projecting portions 3b, 3b are joined to a top face 32a of the protruding portion 33 and that the upper and lower projecting portions 3a, 3a are joined to upper and lower faces 32b, 32b of the protruding portion 33 respectively. Plural beads 56 are formed at the crash can 3 at positions which avoid spot-joint positions S. Accordingly, the impact energy can absorbed effectively by the crash can.
