Abstract: A clearance 44 is provided between the outer periphery of a duct 42 and a vehicle body, that is, a radiator support 50 and, at the same time, the clearance 44 is made to have a labyrinth structure. In this structure, it is possible to prevent vibrations of the vehicle body from being propagated from the radiator support 50 to the duct 42 while preventing a current of air, such as one caused by movement of the vehicle, from flowing around heat exchangers, such as a radiator 10, and flowing downstream through the clearance 44. Therefore, it is possible to improve the cooling performance of heat exchangers such as the radiator 10 while preventing the duct 42, that is, a duct shroud 40 from being damaged by vibration.

Abstract: A front end panel (10) is fixed to side members (50) behind crushable zones (51). Due to this structure, most of the impact forces are absorbed by the deformation of a bumper reinforcement (60) and the crushable zones (51) and large impact forces are not transferred to the front end panel (10). Therefore, it is possible to prevent the front end panel (10) from being seriously damaged by impact forces produced in collision while preventing increases in both the number of parts and the man-hours required in assembling the front end structure and an increase in the repair costs for the front end panel because brackets, which are additional parts, can be discarded and, as a matter of course, notches to be provided to the brackets can be dispensed with.

Abstract translation: 前端板（10）固定在可压溃区（51）后面的侧构件（50）上。 由于这种结构，大多数冲击力被保险杠加强件（60）的变形吸收，并且可压碎区域（51）和大的冲击力不会传递到前端面板（10）。 因此，可以防止前端面板（10）在碰撞时产生的冲击力受到严重的损伤，同时防止组装前端结构所需的零件数量和工时数量的增加，以及 由于作为附加部件的支架可以被丢弃，并且当然可以省略提供给支架的缺口，因此前端面板的维修费用可以省略。

Abstract: The radiating section (830) of the control unit (800) is exposed to air flowing in the intake path (710) formed in the panel body (450). Due to the foregoing, it is possible to cool the control unit (800) by air (about 35° C.), the temperature of which is lower than the temperature of air (about 60° C.) which has passed through the condenser (200) and the radiator (100). Accordingly, the cooling effect (cooling capacity) can be enhanced. Therefore, the size of the radiating section (830) can be reduced, and the structure of the control unit (800) (the mounting structure of the electronic parts (810)) can be simplified. As a result, the manufacturing cost of the control unit (800) can be reduced.

Abstract: In a vehicle front end panel to which a front end member including at least a radiator is assembled, an air guiding portion for guiding air into the radiator is provided integrally with a body panel portion, and a low strength portion having a mechanical strength lower than that of the panel body portion is provided in the air guiding portion. Accordingly, during a minor vehicle collision, the low strength portion of the air guiding portion is preferentially broken to absorb a collision energy. Thus, collision force applied to the panel body portion can be reduced, and it can prevent the panel body portion from being broken during the minor vehicle collision.

Abstract: A vehicle front end member including at least a radiator has an upper protrusion fixed to an upper insertion hole of a vehicle front end panel, and a lower protrusion fixed to a lower insertion hole of the front end panel. When an exterior force larger than a predetermined value is applied to the vehicle from a front side, a fixing state of the upper protrusion into the upper insertion hole is released, while a fixing state of the lower protrusion into the lower insertion hole is maintained. Therefore, is can prevent all the front end member from being separated from the front end panel when the exterior force is applied to the vehicle from the front i side. Accordingly, a damage of the front end member due to the exterior force is prevented while a collision of the front end member on a road surface is prevented.

Abstract: An inlet 51 is disposed at a position which is on an upper side relative to an axial flow fan 60 and is opposite to a direction of air flow produced by the rotation of the axial flow fan 60, whereas an intercooler 30 is disposed at a position which is on a lower side relative to the axial flow fan 60 and is downstream along the direction of air flow produced by the rotation of the axial flow fan 60, whereby it can be prevented that an air cleaner 50 constitutes a resistance to an air flow to thereby reduce the volume of air which passes through the intercooler 30. Consequently, intake air can be sufficiently cooled to thereby increase the output of an engine 40.

Abstract: In a front end structure of a vehicle, a heat exchanger is arranged at a position lower than a bumper reinforcement member, so a position of an engine hood is lowered. Electric auxiliary devices such as a radar, electronic control units for lights, and an air cleaner are arranged at a position higher than the bumper reinforcement member or at the rear of the bumper reinforcement member. By this arrangement, the electric auxiliary devices are arranged at a position which is less likely to be affected by the bumper reinforcement member in a case of light frontal crush.
