  • Bumper beam
    Patent number: 10093254
    Abstract: A bumper beam for a vehicle has a hat beam profile, i.e. a generally U-shaped cross-section with the crown (12-16) pointing outwards. In each attachment region (20) it has a transverse bulkhead (25) fastened between the crown's sides (12, 13) and running generally in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.
    Type: Grant

  • Bumper beam
    Patent number: 7905526
    Abstract: A bumper beam (10) e.g. for an SUV, has its flange portions (18, 19) positioned high and extends asymmetrically downwards relative to them. It has an outwardly convex profile which has in its lower portion a longitudinal concavity (16) which, near to the lower edge of the profile, ends with a forward-pointing profile portion (21). The result is less risk that the bumper will climb up over a lower-positioned bumper (30) which it collides with.
