Safe protection equipment for all vehicles will significantly reduce the collision force by spring or liquid cylinder when the vehicle bumps to obstacle or two vehicles collide with each other. This equipment can be used on both front and rear of the vehicle. Combination of springs or liquid cylinder with different elasticity can reduce the collision smoothly. This equipment will protect both vehicles and drivers without changing the current air-bag protection system. It will significantly reduce the damage for serious collision accidents. This equipment is attached to the vehicle chassis on bottom, which will bear the collision force reduced by the spring or liquid cylinder. It might require some design change in vehicle chassis. One option is to add a pad to pass the reduced collision force to the elastic tire when colliding vehicles are running in straight line.

A vehicle includes a body structure, a push bar, and a damper connecting the push bar to the body structure. The damper includes a base and a rod that are movable relative to each other. The rod is attached to one of the push bar and the body structure, and the base is attached to the other of the push bar and the body structure. The damper is controllable to adjust a damping ratio of the damper and/or adjust a resting position of the rod relative to the base to axially move the push bar.

This equipment will protect both vehicles and drivers without changing the current air-bag protection system. It will significantly reduce the damage for serious collision accidents. This equipment is attached to the vehicle chassis with a pair of pad to pass the reduced collision force to the elastic tire when colliding vehicles are running in straight line. Normally vehicle running in straight line has high speed and the collision force is strong. The elastic tire can reduce the collision force further.

A vehicle is provided. The vehicle may include at least one crush can, a controller and a pump. The crush can may include front and rear chambers. The controller may receive a first signal indicative of a loading condition generated at the time of an impact, and the pump may displace a nano-porous liquid in response to a second signal from the controller into at least one of the front and rear chambers of the crush can.

A first shock absorption member between a frame forming a framework of a vehicle and an outer structure positioned outside of the frame in the vehicle, the first shock absorption member being installed in a manner that the outer structure is deformed preferentially over the frame in a shock-receiving situation in which the outer structure is displaced or deformed toward the frame side due to a shock load against the outer structure, a second shock absorption member between the frame and the outer structure, and a switching unit to switch an installation state of the second shock absorption member between a first installation state in which the second shock absorption member avoids the shock load in the shock-receiving situation and a second installation state in which the second shock absorption member receives the shock load and deforms together with the first shock absorption member in the shock-receiving situation are provided.

A bracket adapted to attach a running board to a rocker of a vehicle includes a body having a plurality of running board deflection-inducing portions. The body may include a torsional buckling-inducing portion comprising a rocker mounting portion defining an included angle to a vehicle y-axis and to a vehicle x-axis when mounted to the rocker. The body may further include a rotational moment-inducing portion comprising a stepped segment interposed between the rocker mounting portion and a running board-carrying portion. The rotational moment-inducing portion may further include a rocker mounting tab disposed adjacent to the stepped segment and a flange disposed at an interface of the stepped segment and the running board-carrying portion.

The present invention relates to a bumper system for a vehicle, and provides a bumper system for a vehicle, the system comprising: a bumper beam which has a fastening hole formed through each end thereof in the forward and backward direction; a crash box which is inserted into the fastening hole of the bumper beam; and a bracket which is fastened to the bumper beam so as to be able to prevent the crash box from being separated. Thereby, the system can meet both low speed crash regulations and RCAR performance.
