본 발명은 자동차의 범퍼에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 주행도중 돌발적인 인명사고의 발생시에 범퍼에 내장된 에어 매트가 차체 전방측으로 순간적으로 펼쳐짐으로써, 충돌의 충격으로 인해 피해자가 허공에 잠시 머물고 도로상에 떨어질 때에 입게되는 머리부의 손상을 방지할 수 있는 에어 매트가 내장된 자동차의 범퍼에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a bumper of a vehicle, and more particularly, the air mat embedded in the bumper is instantaneously unfolded toward the front of the vehicle body in the event of an accidental human accident during driving, so that the victim stays in the air for a while due to the impact of the collision. The present invention relates to a bumper of a vehicle in which an air mat is embedded, which can prevent damage to a head part to be worn when falling on the floor.

일반적으로 자동차의 범퍼(BUMPER)는 차량의 앞·뒤에서 보디를 보호하기 위하여 설치되어 있는 장치로서, 만약의 경우 부딪혔을 때 그 충격을 흡수하는 역할을 하게된다. 예전에는 강철 재료의 보디에서 약간 튀어나온 정도였으나 미국에서 대형 범퍼가 채용되면서 현재에는 에너지 흡수 범퍼라고 불리우는 것이 일반화 되어 있다. 보통, 우레탄 등이 쓰이며 충격흡수의 정도가 커져 있으나 동시에 보디와 일체화 한 디자인 등에 의하여 장식을 겸한 부품으로 되어가는 추세이다.In general, a bumper of a vehicle is a device installed to protect a body in front and rear of a vehicle, and serves to absorb a shock when it is hit. It used to be a bit protruding from the body of steel, but in the United States, it has become commonplace to call it an energy-absorbing bumper. Usually, urethane is used and the degree of shock absorption is increased, but at the same time, it is becoming a part that also serves as a decoration by a design integrated with a body.

이런 에너지 흡수 범퍼는 저속으로 충돌했을 때 차체가 손상을 받지 않도록, 충돌시의 기계적 에너지를 흡수하는 범퍼로서, 북미에서는 5마일(8km/h) 충격에너지 흡수 범퍼의 장치가 법으로 의무화 되어 있었으나, 현재는 4km/h로 완화되었다. 이런 범퍼는 각 메이커에서 여러가지 범퍼를 개발하고 있으나 크게 나누어 우레탄 등 완충재를 쓰는 우레탄 범퍼와 오일의 점성을 이용하는 메너스코식 범퍼 등이 있다.The energy absorbing bumper is a bumper that absorbs mechanical energy during collision so that the vehicle body is not damaged when colliding at a low speed. In North America, a device of 5 miles (8 km / h) impact energy absorbing bumper was required by law. At present it has been relaxed to 4 km / h. These bumpers are developed by various manufacturers, but there are largely divided urethane bumpers that use cushioning materials such as urethane, and Menorsco bumpers that utilize the viscosity of oil.

이렇게 범퍼는 외부에서 내측으로 볼 때 차체의 외장부에 속하는 범퍼 페이아와 범퍼 에너지 압소버, 범퍼 임팩트 바, 범퍼 어퍼 서포트, 서포트 범퍼 임팩트 브라켓, 범퍼 임팩트 스테이, 등으로 구성되어 충격 에너지를 흡수하게 된다.In this way, the bumper is composed of a bumper payer, a bumper energy absorber, a bumper impact bar, a bumper upper support, a support bumper impact bracket, a bumper impact stay, and the like, which are included in the exterior of the vehicle to absorb shock energy. .

그러나 차량 대 사람의 인명 사고시에는 이렇게 차안에 위치한 운전자나 탑승자에게 가해지는 충격은 범퍼 자체에서 흡수되더라도 사고를 당한 사람은 그 충격으로 허공으로 뜨게 되어 다시 떨어지면서 머리부를 도로나 차체에 부딪혀서 더욱 큰 손상을 입게 되는 문제점이 있었다.However, in a car-to-person accident, the impact on the driver or occupant in the car is absorbed by the bumper itself, but the person in the accident will float into the air due to the impact and fall back, hitting the head of the road or the body for further damage. There was a problem wearing.

본 발명은 이런 종래의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 개발된 것으로서, 본 발명의 목적은 주행도중 돌발적인 인명사고의 발생시에 범퍼에 내장된 에어 매트가 차체 전방측으로 순간적으로 펼쳐짐으로써, 충돌의 충격으로 인해 피해자가 허공에 잠시 머물고 도로상에 떨어질 때에 입게되는 머리부의 손상을 방지할 수 있는 에어 매트가 내장된 자동차의 범퍼를 제공함에 있다.The present invention was developed to solve such a conventional problem, and an object of the present invention is that the air mat built into the bumper is instantaneously unfolded toward the front of the vehicle body during an accidental accident while driving, thereby causing the victim to be impacted by the impact of the crash. It is to provide a bumper of a vehicle with a built-in air mat that can prevent the damage to the head that is worn when the air stays in the air and falls on the road.

위의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 본 발명은, 자동차의 범퍼(40)에 있어서, 상기 범퍼(40) 내측에 설치된 충격 감지센서(30)와, 상기 범퍼(40) 하부의 내측에 함체·형성되고 뚜껑(13)을 갖는 매트 보관함(12)과, 상기 매트 보관함(12)에 접힘·보관되는 에어 매트(10)와, 상기 에어 매트(10) 일측에 연결되어 상기 충격감지센서(30)의 신호를 받아 작동되는 팽창기(20)를 구비하는 특징이 있다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention, in the bumper 40 of the vehicle, the shock sensor 30 is installed inside the bumper 40, and the inside of the lower bumper 40, formed, the lid A mat holder 12 having a 13, an air mat 10 folded and stored in the mat holder 12, and connected to one side of the air mat 10 to receive a signal from the impact sensor 30; It is characterized by having an inflator 20 which is actuated.

이하에서는 첨부도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described a preferred embodiment of the present invention;

제1도는 본 발명의 에어 매트가 범퍼에서 돌출되어 펼쳐진 모습을 보인 작동상태도이고, 제2도는 그 요부를 발췌한 확대 단면도이다.FIG. 1 is an operating state diagram showing the air mat of the present invention protruding from the bumper, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the main part.

즉, 자동차의 범퍼(40)에 있어서, 상기 범퍼(40) 내측에 설치된 충격감지센서(30)와, 상기 범퍼(40) 하부의 내측에 함체·형성되고 뚜껑(13)을 갖는 매트 보관함(12)과, 상기 매트 보관함(12)에 접힘·보관되는 에어 매트(10)와, 상기 에어 매트(10) 일측에 연결되어 상기 충격 감지센서(30)의 신호를 받아 작동되는 팽창기(20)를 구비하여서 된 것이다.That is, in the bumper 40 of the vehicle, the impact sensor 30 installed inside the bumper 40, and the mat storage box 12 having a lid 13, which is enclosed and formed inside the bottom of the bumper 40, ), An air mat (10) folded and stored in the mat storage box 12, and an inflator (20) connected to one side of the air mat (10) and operated by receiving a signal from the impact sensor (30). It was done.

이처럼 구성된 본 발명은 차량의 주행중 운전자의 부주의나 외부요인에 의해 사람을 치어 충격을 주게 되면, 이 충격은 범퍼(40)의 충격감지센서(30)에 의해 전기신호로 변환되어 에어 매트(10)의 일측에 연결된 팽창기(20)를 자극시켜 가스를 순간적으로 발생시키고, 이 가스의 분사력으로 매트 보관함(12)의 뚜껑(13)을 매트 보관함(12)에서 분리시키면서 에어 매트(10)는 차체 전방측으로 순간적으로 펼쳐 진다.According to the present invention configured as described above, when a driver strikes a person due to carelessness or external factors of the driver while driving the vehicle, the impact is converted into an electrical signal by the impact sensor 30 of the bumper 40, thereby providing an air mat 10. Stimulates the inflator 20 connected to one side of the gas to instantaneously generate the gas, the air mat 10 is in front of the body while separating the lid 13 of the mat holder 12 from the mat holder 12 by the injection force of the gas It unfolds momentarily to the side.

이때 충돌시의 충격으로 잠시 허공으로 붕뜬 피해자는 에어 매트(10) 상면에 적어도 머리부를 위치하게 되어 더욱 큰 피해를 방지하게 된다.At this time, the victim who collapsed into the air for a while due to the impact at the time of the collision is placed at least the head on the upper surface of the air mat 10 to prevent further damage.

이상에서와 같이 본 발명에 따르면 주행도중 돌발적인 인명사고의 발생시에 범퍼에 내장된 에어 매트가 차체 전방측으로 순간적으로 펼쳐짐으로써, 충돌의 충격으로 인해 피해자가 허공에 잠시 머물고 도로상에 떨어질 때에 입게되는 머리부의 손상을 방지할 수 있는 효과가 있다.As described above, according to the present invention, the air mat embedded in the bumper is instantaneously unfolded toward the front of the vehicle body when an accidental accident occurs during driving, so that the victim is worn when the victim stays in the air for a while due to the impact of the crash and falls on the road. It is effective to prevent damage to the head.
