A motor vehicle front face (1) can be fixed rigidly to the front ends (2) of the main longitudinal members (14) of the motor vehicle. The front face (1) includes: at least one cross member (8), at least one lock (76) for fastening the bonnet of the motor vehicle, the or each lock (76) being rigidly fixed to the cross member (8). The cross member (8) is vertically located substantially level with the front ends (2) of the main longitudinal members (4).

This assembly comprises a plastics material structural frame (2) comprising at least a lower cross member (8) and vertical struts (10, 12), each of said struts (10, 12) forming, over at least a portion of its height, a deformable energy absorption component (14), the module further comprising a plastics material shield (4) formed so as to match the shape of a shield skin (56) and arranged against the structural frame (2), said shield (4) comprising an upper cross member (34) and a lower cross member (36) interconnected via vertical connecting beams (38). The upper (34) and lower (36) cross members and the connecting beams (38) comprise a plurality of ribs (48) which form cells (50) in said cross members (34, 36) and said beams (38), at least some of said cells (50) passing through the shield (4).

A front shock-absorber assembly for a motor vehicle includes, at each of the right-hand and left-hand sides thereof, at least a lower longitudinal structural element (6, 7) and an upper longitudinal structural element (4, 5). The shock-absorber assembly includes a high-energy impact absorption structure (12) which includes an elongate right-hand plate (18) and left-hand plate (19), each plate being fixedly joined to a lower longitudinal element and an upper longitudinal element located at the same side of the vehicle; and a deformable right-hand element (30) and left-hand element (31) for absorbing medium-energy impacts, a rear surface of a deformable element moving into abutment against the majority of a front surface of an associated plate.
摘要:
An impact absorbing member in a bumper structure includes a base portion, an upper extending portion and a lower extending portion being spaced apart from the upper extending portion. An upper extending portion includes a first extending portion extending forward from an upper portion on a front surface of the base portion and a second extending portion extending from a distal end of the first extending portion in such a manner as to be bent relative to the first extending portion.
摘要:
A hybrid bumper system includes a polymeric reinforcement beam with end sections and structural covers attached to the end sections to considerably strengthen the end sections. Bracketry stably supports the reinforcement beam on a vehicle frame. A fascia covers at least part of the reinforcement beam but leaves a portion of the structural covers in a visible position. The structural covers are treated for aesthetics, such as by painting, chroming, or other surface treatment. In one aspect, the beam includes a molded polymeric beam component, structural L-shaped covers attached to its end sections, and a tie bar along its rear side that stiffens and rigidifies a center of the polymeric beam component. In another aspect, a tow bar or rail-to-rail metal reinforcement beam front system (or rear with tow bar) is incorporated.

A bumper with an override feature for a vehicle has at least one impact resisting member having at least one bumper beam with a bumper face and at least one override member having at least one override face extending from the bumper beam to increase an effective face area of the bumper beam.
摘要:
A motor vehicle front part includes a bumper unit provided with a bumper crossmember and a support which rigidifies the bumper unit in a region upstream of the bumper crossmember upon impact with a pedestrian. The front part of a vehicle is provided with a bumper unit so that the pedestrian's protection is also improved on vehicles whose design do not enable a lower support to be incorporated. The support is therefore arranged above the bumper crossmember.
摘要:
A pedestrian protection apparatus for a vehicle, including: a plate member, which includes front and rear portions, and which is fixed at the rear portion to the vehicle; and at least one reinforcing bead each formed integrally on the front portion of the plate member and each including a bead-extending portion and a bead-end portion which extends integrally from a rear-side edge of the bead-extending portion for connecting the rear-side edge and the rear portion of the plate member, the apparatus being arranged to sweep a leg portion of a pedestrian that has collided with the front of the vehicle by contact of a front end of the plate member with the leg portion, thereby protecting the leg portion, wherein a connecting portion between the bead-end portion and the rear portion of the plate member is gently curved without being folded.
