Abstract: A battery support structure for a vehicle includes a plurality of side reinforcement members and front and rear reinforcement members. The plurality of side reinforcement members are configured to extend longitudinally relative to an associated vehicle frame, and the front and rear reinforcement members are configured to extend laterally relative to the associated vehicle frame. A plurality of module nodes are attached between adjacent ends of the side reinforcement members and the front and rear members to together form a containment wall that generally surrounds a battery containment area. The plurality of module nodes comprise corner sections of the containment wall, such that a length of the side reinforcement members or the front and rear reinforcement members is selected to provide a desired respective length or width of the battery containment area.

Abstract: The present bumper impact beam includes pultruding polymer (e.g. thermoset polymer, preferably polyurethane) into continuous reinforcement (preferably carbon fibers or glass fibers), the reinforcement including fabrics selectively positioned and extending around corners for improved impact strength. The beam preferably has a 50%-70% fiber volume fraction that is relatively uniform throughout the part. A curved cooling support and/or beam design may be used to cause the cooled beam to have a sweep.
Abstract translation: 本保险杠冲击梁包括拉挤聚合物（例如热固性聚合物，优选聚氨酯）到连续增强材料（优选碳纤维或玻璃纤维）中，所述增强件包括织物选择性地定位并围绕拐角延伸以提高冲击强度。 梁优选具有在整个部分中相对均匀的50％-70％的纤维体积分数。 可以使用弯曲的冷却支撑和/或梁设计来使冷却的梁具有扫掠。

Abstract: A reinforcement beam for a vehicle has an outer beam profile and an inner beam profile. The outer beam profile define an elongated hollow body and includes a front wall portion and a rear wall portion. The outer beam profile may include upper and lower flanges that formed in planar extension of the font wall portion. The inner beam profile may include a C-shape defining an upper shear wall and a lower shear wall that each extend between the front wall portion and the rear wall portion. The outer beam profile and the inner beam profile may be formed from a single sheet material through a roll-forming process. The inner beam profile may be present over a central section of the elongated hollow body and have a length that is less than half the length of the elongated hollow body.

Abstract: A reinforcement beam for a vehicle has an outer beam and an inner beam. The outer beam spans laterally between crush cans of the vehicle. The outer beam forms an elongated hollow body that has a front wall and a rear wall extending along the length of the reinforcement beam. The inner beam is disposed along an intermediate section of the outer beam. The inner beam further includes an upper wall and a lower wall that each extend between the front wall and the rear wall of the outer beam. The front wall and the rear wall may include at least one rib that extends along the length of the outer beam.
