A vehicular shock-absorbing member may include a pair of upper and lower supporting wood members configured such that outer surfaces thereof function as load input surfaces in which a collision load is received and that axes of annual rings thereof extend along the load input surfaces, and shock-absorbing wood member sandwiched between the supporting wood members in such a manner that an axis of annual rings thereof extends in a direction perpendicular to the load input surfaces of the supporting wood members. The shock-absorbing wood member is configured such that a load input surface thereof in which the collision load is received is displaced inward relative to the load input surfaces of the supporting wood members.

A hybrid structure includes a frame member with at least three walls, forming a channel having a convex portion where two walls meet. A concave deformation is present in at least one convex portion, wherein the concave deformation extends into the channel and has open ends forming an opening through the convex portion. A plastic reinforcement member is present in the channel, wherein a portion of the reinforcement member extends into the opening and on the concave deformation.

There is provided a reinforcement member for a vehicle which includes a cylindrical body section having a continuously closed cross section intersecting with a longitudinal direction. The cylindrical body section has a first surface, a second surface, and a third surface. The third surface has a fourth surface extending away from the second surface, and a fifth surface connecting the fourth surface and the first surface to each other. In a sectional view when viewed in the longitudinal direction, in a case where a virtual line connecting a first intersection portion where the first surface and the third surface intersect with each other and a second intersection portion where the second surface and the third surface intersect with each other is set, a third intersection portion where the fourth surface and the fifth surface intersect with each other protrudes outward with respect to the virtual line.

A bumper beam for a vehicle that is lightweight and high in strength is provided. A bumper beam for a vehicle includes a first member and a second member. The first member includes a first top panel part, two first vertical wall parts, and two first flange parts. The second member includes a second top panel part, two second vertical wall parts, and two second flange parts. The second top panel part includes a protruding part that protrudes toward a side opposite to the first top panel part. The two second vertical wall parts are disposed such that the second vertical wall parts respectively face close the first vertical wall parts inside the first member. The two second flange parts are disposed such that the second flange parts are connected to the two second vertical wall parts and joined to the first flange parts, respectively.

A vehicle front structure includes a first bumper reinforcement, a pair of right and left front side members respectively disposed on a vehicle rear side of outer portions of the first bumper reinforcement in a vehicle width direction, an apron upper member, a first crash box interposed between the first bumper reinforcement and the front side member, a cross member coupling together front ends of the pair of right and left front side members in the vehicle width direction, and a high-voltage component disposed on the vehicle rear side of and at a distance from the cross member. The first crash box is configured to undergo compressive deformation when a load equal to or larger than a predetermined value is input from the first bumper reinforcement.

A bumper structural body (100) includes a bumper reinforcement (10), energy absorbing members (30a, 30b), and intermediate members (50a, 50b). The sloped sections (12a, 12b) of the bumper reinforcement (10) are connected to the energy absorbing members (30a, 30b) and the intermediate members (50a, 50b). The intermediate members (50a, 50b) are each formed in a quadrilateral by connecting a first portion (51) contacting the energy absorbing member (30a, 30b), a second portion (52) contacting the bumper reinforcement (10), and portions connecting the first portion (51) and the second portion (52).

A bumper crossmember having a profiled carrier profile, which extends with its longitudinal direction in the vehicle transverse direction (y direction) and has portions with a U-shaped profile in the z direction at least on the end sides formed by two limbs and a profile base connecting the two limbs, and a widening element profiled in the z direction, connected to each end side of the carrier profile, via which the carrier profile is extended in the longitudinal direction. Each widening element has a connecting portion, which has a U-shaped profile with a contact portion and a mating portion adjoining the contact portion, and an extension portion adjoining the mating portion. The connecting portion has a profile base connecting two limbs of the U-shaped profiling, engages with one of the two U-shaped portions of the carrier profile, and is arranged overlapping the latter in the y direction. At least in the region of its contact portion, the connecting portion is connected to the profile base of the carrier profile, and in the region of its mating portion, the connecting portion makes contact at least in regions by way of its limbs with the limbs of the carrier profile.

Provided is a modular bumper back beam which secures crash performance, is changeable depending on the design of a mobility device through commonization of parts so as to easily cope with design and data required by the mobility device, and has a simple structure so as to be simplified in terms of management and assembly. Thereby, the modular bumper back beam is assembled and manufactured using the minimum number of molds through commonization of parts of the bumper back beam, thereby being capable of reducing manufacturing costs.

A bumper structural body (100) includes a bumper reinforcement (10), energy absorbing members (30a, 30b), and intermediate members (50a, 50b). The sloped sections (12a, 12b) of the bumper reinforcement (10) are connected to the energy absorbing members (30a, 30b) and the intermediate members (50a, 50b). The intermediate members (50a, 50b) are each formed in a quadrilateral by connecting a first portion (51) contacting the energy absorbing member (30a, 30b), a second portion (52) contacting the bumper reinforcement (10), and portions connecting the first portion (51) and the second portion (52).

A vehicular shock-absorbing member may include a pair of upper and lower supporting wood members configured such that outer surfaces thereof function as load input surfaces in which a collision load is received and that axes of annual rings thereof extend along the load input surfaces, and shock-absorbing wood member sandwiched between the supporting wood members in such a manner that an axis of annual rings thereof extends in a direction perpendicular to the load input surfaces of the supporting wood members. The shock-absorbing wood member is configured such that a load input surface thereof in which the collision load is received is displaced inward relative to the load input surfaces of the supporting wood members.
