いる（例えば実開昭59−124716号公報参照）。Prior Art A front bumper for a vehicle that receives or absorbs impact from other objects is generally placed and fixed at the front end of the vehicle body by bumper stays provided on both sides of the rear, which improves the appearance. Because of this, its shape has recently taken shape. For this reason,
The front bumper has a shape that covers the radiator, and this tendency is particularly noticeable in cab-over type cars. Therefore, in order to introduce outside air into the radiator, there are some models that have an air guide port at the front end of the front bumper, and others that have an outside air introduction duct near the front bumper (for example, -Refer to Publication No. 124716).

のため、前述の従来例と同様にラジエータの十分
な冷却効果が得られない。Problems to be solved by the invention However, in the case of the former, the outside air introduced from the air guide port has no directivity towards the radiator and flows to diffuse into the engine room, so there is insufficient No cooling effect is obtained. In the latter case, a duct must be prepared separately, which not only increases manufacturing costs but also goes against the desire to reduce the weight of the vehicle body. Also, Utsukai Showa 58-
As in the technology described in Publication No. 47541, a plurality of ventilation holes with a honeycomb structure are provided approximately in the center of the bumper body fixed to the vehicle body by a bumper stay, and outside air is introduced through the ventilation holes to cool the radiator. They also offer prepared items. However, since this technique simply provides ventilation holes, the outside air flowing in through the ventilation holes loses its directionality and diffuses inside the engine room. This is particularly noticeable when the distance between the bumper body and the radiator is large. Therefore, as in the conventional example described above, a sufficient cooling effect of the radiator cannot be obtained.

The vertical width of the end portion 10 is set to be approximately the same as the length of the front surface 15 of the radiator 2 to the top and bottom ends. Further, from the front end portion 9 to the rear end portion 10, the approximately central portion thereof is bent into a crank shape so that both rear end portions 10 are set to have approximately the same width from side to side as the left and right width of the radiator 2, and the upper and lower ends thereof. Part 11,
12 is bent inward into a substantially L-shape. Further, in the front end portion 9, a lower front edge 13 is formed in an inclined shape along the left and right side edges 18 of the air guide port 6 of the bumper fascia 7, and a U-shaped upper portion 14 protruding forward is attached to the main body 5. It fits into the rear of the
It is fixed by welding etc. Further, the rear end portion 10 is arranged to extend to the vicinity of the front surface 15 of the radiator 2, and the upper portion is provided with fixing bolts 16, 1.
6 insertion holes 17, 17 are formed. In addition, 19 in the figure is a protrusion for reinforcement.

It goes without saying that the bumper facia 7 is securely fixed to the side members 3, 3, and the bumper facia 7 is securely fixed to the side members 3, 3.
The outside air flowing in from the air guide port 6 is smoothly guided toward the front surface 15 of the radiator 2 by the bumper stays 8, 8 without losing directionality and diffusing in the engine room. In addition, the rear end portion 1 is formed in a widening shape from the front end portion 9 to the rear end portion 10.
Since the vertical width of the radiator 2 extends to the top and bottom ends of the front surface 15 of the radiator 2, outside air can be forcefully and intensively applied to the front surface 15 of the radiator 2, and most of it is distributed over the entire area of the front surface 15. It becomes possible to apply it evenly. Therefore, the radiator 2 is effectively cooled, the engine cooling performance of the radiator 2 is improved, and overheating of the engine is prevented, and the durability of the engine is improved.

満足できる。Effects of the invention As is clear from the above description, according to the vehicle front bumper according to the invention, the front end of the bumper stay is arranged along both side edges of the air guide port, and the rear end is arranged in front of the radiator. The air flows into the engine room through the air guide port, and is expanded from the front end to the rear end, and the lower end of the rear end is extended to the lower end of the front of the radiator. The outside air is smoothly guided to the front of the radiator between the opposing inner surfaces of both bumper stays. In particular, the unique configuration of the rear end portion allows outside air to be forcefully and intensively applied to the front surface of the radiator, and also allows it to be applied uniformly to the entire area of the front surface of the radiator. As a result, the engine cooling performance of the radiator is improved, and engine overheating is sufficiently prevented.
It also improves the durability of the engine. Furthermore, since there is no need for conventional outside air introduction ducts, etc., it is not only advantageous in terms of cost, but also satisfies the need for a lighter vehicle body.
