Provided is an automobile door (600) including: an exterior material (110); a first impact absorbing member (122); and a second impact absorbing member (124), in which the first impact absorbing member (122) is disposed to traverse the exterior material (110) so as to extend between both end portion regions in a vehicle height direction, the first impact absorbing member (122) is disposed on a vehicle interior side from the second impact absorbing member (124), the second impact absorbing member (124) is disposed to traverse the exterior material (110) so as to extend between both end portion regions in a vehicle length direction, the second impact absorbing member (124) is disposed adjacent to an inner surface of the exterior material (110), and at a portion excluding both of the end portion regions in the vehicle height direction, both of the end portion regions in the vehicle length direction, and an intersection portion, bending rigidity in a vehicle width direction of a cross section perpendicular to an extending direction of the first impact absorbing member (122) is larger than bending rigidity in the vehicle width direction of a cross section perpendicular to an extending direction of the second impact absorbing member (124).

A vehicle door for use in a vehicle body comprising a rocker (20) is described. The vehicle door comprises an inner door panel (11) and an outer door panel (13), wherein the door further comprises a reinforcement element (12) arranged in a lower portion of the door such that when the door is mounted in the vehicle body, the reinforcement element (12) is at the height of the rocker (20) and such that when a side impact is received by the door the reinforcement element with the inner door panel is supported by the vehicle rocker. The reinforcement element (12) is a U-shaped bracket that extends from the inner door panel (11) to the outer door panel (13), the U-shaped bracket (12) being arranged with an open side facing the inner panel. The disclosure further relates to a vehicle having a vehicle body that comprises a rocker and such a door.

The reinforcement element for reinforcing the structure of a door of a vehicle extends along a main direction and comprises at least a main portion having a reinforcing cross-section (40) extending in a plane substantially perpendicular to the main direction. The reinforcing cross-section (40) includes at least four adjacent branches (42a, 42b, 42c, 42d, 42e, 42f, 42g ), each extending in different directions, two successive branches forming a non-zero angle, at least two of the non-zero angles being of opposite signs.

An impact beam for reinforcing a vehicle door includes an elongated beam having a hollow interior spanning a length of the elongated beam. The elongated beam includes an impact portion spanning the length and configured to face an exterior side of the vehicle door. The elongated beam also includes a cross-sectional shape having a top wall section and a bottom wall section that interconnect at a bend section of the cross-sectional shape, which includes the impact portion. The top and bottom wall sections each include an intermediate bend to define a substantially horizontal section and an angled section on opposing sides of the intermediate bend, where the intermediate bends are configured to limit inward displacement of the elongated beam from an impact force at the exterior side of the vehicle door.

The invention relates to a reinforcement part (1) for reinforcing a vehicle component, comprising a structural wall (3) enclosing walls of a ribbing structure (5), the reinforcement part having a first side region (6) allowing a first load portion to pass through and a second side region (7) allowing a second load portion to pass through, wherein the first load portion represents the largest load portion, characterized in that at the second side region, the walls of the ribbing structure are provided with cut-outs (8), the structural wall at the second side region being shaped to at least partially cover the contours (9) of the cut-outs, wherein a continuously shaped cut-out (10) is formed in the structural wall for cabling (11), whereas the walls of the ribbing structure at the first side region are free from cut-outs.

The present invention relates to an impact beam having a structure in which a plurality of peak portions and a plurality of valley portions are repeatedly and alternately disposed, and including a reinforcement fiber that is continuously coupled to at least one of the plurality of peak portions and the plurality of valley portions along a length direction.

A vehicle component includes a body, a first beam, and a second beam. The body has a first fixture region and a second fixture region. The first beam is formed of a first composite material and has a first beam shape. The first beam is attached to the body and extends between the first fixture region and the second fixture region of the body. The second beam is formed of a second composite material and has a second beam shape that is simple compared to the first beam shape. The second beam is attached to the body and extends between the first fixture region and the second fixture region of the body.

Provided is a vehicle interior component capable of exhibiting an in-vehicle lighting function even without electricity supply from a vehicle body power source.

A vehicle interior component attached to a vehicle is a vehicle door lining, which includes a light-emitting member emitting light toward the inside of the vehicle, a power generation member electrically connected to the light-emitting member and supplying electricity to the light-emitting member, and a power storage member electrically connected to the light-emitting member and the power generation member and storing electricity. The light-emitting member, the power generation member, and the power storage member are disposed at different positions on the surface of the vehicle door lining on the vehicle inside. In addition, the power generation member is sheet-shaped or film-shaped and is disposed along the surface of the vehicle door lining.

A side vehicle-body structure of a vehicle includes a rear door having a center pillar extending in a vehicle up-down direction built in a front portion of the rear door, and a front door having a door impact bar extending in a vehicle front-rear direction built in the front door. A rear end of the door impact bar is disposed to overlap with the center pillar in a vehicle side view, a reinforcement gusset that connects a lower portion of the front door and a rear portion of the door impact bar to each other is included in an inner portion of the front door, and a side sill extending in the vehicle front-rear direction is adjacently disposed below a connecting portion of a lower portion of the front door at which the lower portion of the front door is connected to the reinforcement gusset.
