Energy Absorber for Front-End Vehicle Protection
A vehicle is disclosed that includes: a grille supporting a functional accessory; a bumper beam that is located (positioned) axially inward of the grille; and a first energy absorber that is connected to the bumper beam. The first energy absorber defines a cavity that is configured to accommodate inward axial displacement of the grille resulting from a low-force impact between the vehicle and an external object to thereby inhibit damage to the functional accessory.

AIR-COOLING DEVICE
An air-cooling device includes a radiator, a duct, and a fan. The radiator includes a radiator core and a frame connected to an outer peripheral portion of the radiator core. The duct is disposed forward of the radiator. The duct includes an opening disposed forward of the radiator core and an air guide that extends from the frame to an end of the opening. The fan causes air to flow from the opening to the radiator core. The frame is disposed to extend from a position on one side of a straight line to a position on an opposite side of the straight line, the straight line extending rearward from the end of the opening. A connecting portion between the frame and the air guide is located at a distance from the straight line.
SOIL PROCESSING MACHINE
A soil processing machine, in particular a soil compactor, comprises a machine frame and a casing (26, 28) carried on the machine frame and/or at least partially providing it and bounding a unit receptacle space (24), wherein the casing (26, 28) has a cooling air inlet area (30) and a cooling air outlet area (32) for cooling air flowing through the unit receptacle space (24), wherein a plurality of units around which cooling air can flow through the unit receptacle space (24) from the cooling air inlet area (30) to the cooling air outlet area (32) are arranged in the unit receptacle space (24), wherein at least two of the units arranged in the unit receptacle space (24) have maximum permissible operating temperatures different from one another and at least one unit having higher maximum permissible operating temperature is arranged upstream in a cooling air flow direction from the cooling air inlet area (30) to the cooling air outlet area (32) with respect to at least one unit having lower maximum permissible operating temperature.
Ventilation device for a vehicle, associated mounting method
A ventilation device for a vehicle includes a frame defining an opening and a closure device that includes at least one closure flap extending in the opening. The ventilation device includes a first section having a first external face and at least a second section having a second external face. The external face of the closure flap is formed by the first external face and by the second external face, the first section and the second section extending in continuity of one another. The first section is joined to the second section in a junction region, with a trimming piece that covers at least the junction region on the external face of the closure flap.
AIR-GUARD HAVING SUB-GUIDE STRUCTURE
Provided is an air-guard having a sub-guide structure, that is, an air-guard having a sub-guide structure for improving availability of air introduced into a vehicle grill. In particular, an air-guard having a sub-guide structure includes an improved structure for guiding air toward a suction duct at an upper end portion of the air-guard or an inside of the air-guard, thereby efficiently utilizing non-used air between the air-guard and a duct mounting portion.

Continuous cooling assembly
Methods and systems are provided for a cooling assembly for a vehicle. In one example, the cooling assembly may be a non-rectangular cooler positioned in a front end of the vehicle with an entry duct continuous with the non-rectangular cooler and arranged upstream of the non-rectangular cooler and an exit duct also continuous with the non-rectangular cooler and arranged downstream of the non-rectangular cooler.
