A bumper arrangement for a motor vehicle has a crossmember and crash boxes which are arranged in each case at the end of the crossmember, and also outer end modules. Each end module has a shell body and a shield which covers the front side of the shell body at least in certain regions, wherein the shell body is joined to a crash box, and an end of the crossmember is joined to a respective shell body. The bumper arrangement has a functionally high energy absorption capacity with a modularized design.

A structural member for an automobile to be disclosed includes a press-formed product formed from one steel sheet and a reinforcing member fixed to the press-formed product. The press-formed product includes two vertical wall portions and a top plate portion linking the two vertical wall portions. The reinforcing member is a member which has an L-shaped cross section and includes a first plate-like portion and a second plate-like portion. The first plate-like portion is fixed to one of the vertical wall portions such that the second plate-like portion protrudes toward an outward direction from the vertical wall portion side along the top plate portion.

A bumper assembly for a material handling vehicle is provided. The material handling vehicle includes a vehicle frame. The bumper assembly includes a first bumper coupled to a first side of the vehicle frame and having a first slot extending along a portion of the first bumper and a first protruding portion. The first protruding portion extends outwardly at an angle past a plane defined by the first side of the vehicle frame. The bumper assembly further includes a second bumper coupled to a second side of the vehicle frame opposite to the first side and having a second slot extending along a portion of the second bumper and a second protruding portion. The second protruding portion extends outwardly at an angle past a plane defined by the second side of the vehicle frame.

A front bumper system of a vehicle includes a bumper beam disposed on a front end of the vehicle, and the bumper beam has a plurality of openings which are open toward a cooling module disposed within a front compartment of the vehicle. The bumper beam has a plurality of ribs by which the plurality of openings are defined, and each rib has a streamlined cross-section whose thickness gradually decreases from the front of the vehicle toward the rear of the vehicle.

A front protection device for a vehicle includes an intermediate body and two fenders. The two fenders are detachably mounted at two ends of the intermediate body, respectively. A first gap is formed between each of the fenders and an outer surface of the intermediate body. The outer surface of the intermediate body refers to a surface of the intermediate body away from a vehicle body.
