Abstract

The impact absorbing surface comprises a wedge shaped strip which is positioned around the dashboard edges etc. and which has a special thin metal shell (12) formed by spot welding (14) sheets together. The metal is cut with patterns of slots (16) whose spacing, and size is determined by the required impact absorbing property. The inside of the sheets is filled with a plastic foam complete with large air spaces into which the foam can be compressed. The outside of the sheets is also covered with plastic foam (10) and the whole assembly is covered with a plastic skin (19).
