    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to efficiently absorb impact by suppressing the free running of a collision object and suppressing the generation of an excessive reaction force to the collision object. SOLUTION: In a front side bone and a rear side bone in the inner panel 16 of an engine hood 12, a plurality of bone members 22 extendedly formed in a front-to-back direction of a vehicle are arranged, being spaced apart in the predetermined interval in a vehicle width direction, the cross sectional shape of the bone members 22 viewed from an axial direction is U shape whose opening portion faces downward and the lower portion is widened. As a result, the offset quantity L between a central axis X of the bone member 22 and the edge portion 24A of the connection portion 24 of the bone member 22 and an outer panel 14 in a plan view becomes small.

    Abstract: A pedal bracket (40) is made of die-cast aluminum, and includes peripheral ribs (86), axial ribs (88), and a crack creation portion (92). If a predetermined high load is applied to a front portion of a vehicle, a rear end side of the pedal bracket (40) is separated from a coupling bracket (72) and slides on a guide face (84A) of a slide guide (84). In this process, the rear end side of the pedal bracket (40) is rotationally displaced, while a crack is created in the crack creation portion (92). The crack grows toward the axial ribs (88) and ruptures the pedal bracket (40). Accordingly, while ensuring that a pedal pad (58) of a brake pedal (10) is displaced substantially forwards with respect to the vehicle, the load input to the side of an instrument panel reinforce (26) can be reduced.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shock absorbing structure of a vehicle capable of enhancing the protecting performance for occupants in the event of head-on collision. SOLUTION: An energy absorbing member 22 in block shape is installed in a void space 20 between a radiator 16 and an engine 18, and is formed from a material having a lower yield strength than the body 26 so as to generate a high load when it is deformed, leaving less residue from crushing. Accordingly an energy absorbing member 22 interferes with the engine 18 early in the first stage of collision to stop the engine 18 moving to ahead of the vehicle, and the loss of the floor-G is reduced. In the middle stage of collision, the engine 18 interferes with the body 26 through the energy absorbing member 22, and the floor-G is heightened. At the final stage of collision, the energy absorbing member 22 makes deformation to absorb the energy to cause a suppression of the bottom abutting G, and the floor-G is reduced.
