    Abstract: A bumper-reinforcing system (1) intended for a motor vehicle includes: a bumper beam (2) with a single-piece elongated profile with a closed cross section and including a center zone (21) extending at least over part of the entire width of the bumper beam and an end zone (22) at each extremity of the bumper beam, two bumper fasteners (3) connected to the rear side of the bumper beam (2) at the intersection between the center zone (21) and the end zone (22) of the bumper beam (2), two reinforcing tubes (4) connected by their first end to the rear side of the end zone (22) of the bumper beam (2), extending from the bumper beam (2) so as to form an angle α below 45° with the vertical plane of symmetry of the bumper beam and suited to be connected by their other end on the front rail of the vehicle for which the bumper-reinforcing system (1) is provided, and two covers (5) with a single-piece elongated profile with an open cross section, in contact with the rear side of the end zone (22) of the bumper beam (2) and extending at least from the first end of one of the reinforcing tubes (4) to one of the bumper fasteners (3).

    Abstract: A design and a production method of a front floor reinforcement structure 1 for a vehicle 3 having a battery pack 5 in the tunnel 7 designed to improve the energy absorption of the vehicle during a side impact by involving the front floor panel 11 in the energy absorption during the side impact. The front floor reinforcement structure 1 includes a front floor cross member 13 having a non-deformable portion 14 located on the end of the front floor cross member 13 closest to the side sill 9 and a deformable portion 16 located on the end of the front floor cross member 13 closest to the tunnel 7. The resistance to plastic deformation of the non-deformable portion 14 is greater than the resistance to plastic deformation of the deformable portion 16, which is itself greater than the resistance to plastic deformation of the front floor panel 11.

    Abstract: A method for producing a door element comprising a planar panel (30) and protruding edges (32a, 32b, 32c), each edge (32a, 32b, 32c) being joined to at least one adjacent edge (32a, 32b, 32c) by a joining edge, comprising: —providing a rectangular planar blank, —cutting out said blank to retrieve a corner part being adapted to form a joining edge (34), —stamping the cut-out blank to obtain a door element part (52) comprising the panel (30) and the edges (32a, 32b, 32c), said edges (32a, 32b, 32c) being separated one from the others, —joining the adjacent edges (32a, 32b, 32c) by attaching a joining part (54) to the door element part, said joining part (54) being made of a material different from the material of the door element part (52) and forming a joining edge.
