Detailed Description

The following description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in fig. 1, a bumper energy absorber according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a bumper skin 1, a foam structure 2, and an impact beam 3, wherein the foam structure 2 is mounted forward on the bumper skin 1 to form a skin assembly, which is mounted rearward on the impact beam 3 to form a bumper energy absorber. In this embodiment, the anti-collision beam 3 is a metal shank beam of the front bumper, and the foam structure 2 can prevent the shank of the pedestrian from being injured due to the collision between the shank of the pedestrian and the metal shank beam, and can play a role in supporting the shank.

Referring to fig. 2, the foam structure 2 includes a middle portion 21, two symmetrical side portions 22, and two symmetrical edge portions 23, wherein the two side portions 22 are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the middle portion 21, and the two edge portions 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the other sides of the side portions 22 opposite to the middle portion 21. The side edge portion 22 has mounting attachment points 22a at locations adjacent to the edge portion 23, through which mounting attachment points 22a fasteners (e.g., screws) are mounted to the bumper skin 1 to effect the attachment fixation of the bumper skin 1 and the foam structure 2.

According to the utility model discloses a bumper energy-absorbing device can control the support scope at pedestrian's shank shin bone position through the shape of control foam structure 2 to increase bumper collision energy-absorbing effect through foam structure 2. Particularly, the middle portion 21, the side portions 22 and the edge portions 23 respectively have different cross-sectional forms, and the three cross-sectional forms cooperate with each other to prevent the foam structure 2 from slipping during collision, ensure the overlapping amount of the foam structure 2 and the rear-end impact beam 3, and fully utilize the foam energy absorption efficiency to ensure the energy absorption effect of the bumper skin 1.

As shown in fig. 3, the surface of the central part 21 facing the bumper skin 1 is recessed rearward to form a bumper recess 211, and the bumper skin 1 has a correspondingly protruding projection 11, which projection 11 can be snapped into the bumper recess 211 during a crash in order to achieve a stop. In addition, the bumper skin 1 has projecting ribs 12, which ribs 12 can be inserted into the foam structure 2 below the bumper recess 211 during a crash, further limiting. According to the utility model discloses a bumper energy-absorbing device, bumper skin 1's arch 11 and muscle piece 12 combine the erection joint point 22a (refer to fig. 1 and fig. 2) of foam structure 2 to play a role jointly, avoid foam structure 2 to produce relative slip with bumper skin 1 in the collision, and cause the energy-absorbing insufficient.

As shown in fig. 4, the surface of the side portion 22 facing the impact beam 3 is recessed forward to form an impact beam groove 221, and the impact beam 3 can be clamped into the impact beam groove 221 to realize spacing during collision, so as to ensure the overlapping amount of the foam structure 2 and the impact beam 3, and avoid the foam structure 2 and the impact beam 3 from sliding relatively during collision, which results in insufficient energy absorption.

As shown in fig. 5, the edge portion 23 has a flange 231 bent toward the impact beam 3 and wrapped around both ends of the impact beam 3 to limit the position. In the collision of the low-speed pendulum, the flanging 231 can increase the effective energy absorption space of the corner collision, absorb collision energy more, fully utilize the energy absorption effect of the foam structure 2 and reduce the damage of the bumper part caused by the collision of the corner of the pendulum.
