Abstract: To suppress deformation of a vehicle cabin by efficiently absorbing an impact load obliquely from a vehicle front side, a vehicle-body front structure includes an upper-side cross member, a lower-side cross member, upper-side impact absorption members that support respective ones of both vehicle-width-direction sides of the upper-side cross member, and lower-side impact absorption members that support respective ones of both vehicle-width-direction sides of the lower-side cross member. The upper-side impact absorption members and the lower-side impact absorption members are each positioned farther on a vehicle-width-direction outer side at a position farther on a vehicle front side.

Abstract: To suppress damage on a bonnet at light collision, a vehicle-body structure includes rear-portion crush cans that perform compressive deformation when a first predetermined load is applied, and front-portion crush cans that perform compressive deformation when a second predetermined load smaller than the first predetermined load is applied. A front portion of a bonnet is positioned on a vehicle rear side of front portions of the rear-portion crush cans.

Abstract: A cowl panel comprises an upper face portion where a windshield is joined, a forward protrusion portion extending downwardly from the upper face portion, protruding forwardly, a rearward protrusion portion extending downwardly from a rear lower end of the forward protrusion portion, protruding rearwardly, and a lower face portion extending forwardly from a lower end of the rearward protrusion portion. A reinforcing member which is positioned on a forward side of the forward protrusion portion and the rearward protrusion portion of the cowl panel and joined to the forward protrusion portion and the lower face portion is provided. The reinforcing member comprises a straight portion which substantially straightly extends downwardly from a joint part where the reinforcing member is joined to the forward protrusion portion, and the straight portion is provided with a fragile part.

Abstract: A panel joint structure suppresses stress concentration on a flange corner section-side end-portion of an adhesive during application of a peeling load. A first panel member includes a panel body section, a corner section, and a first flange section. A second panel member is arranged to oppose the first flange section. A joint section joins the first flange section and the second panel member in a contact state thereof, and an adhesive continuously provided in a longitudinal direction of the corner section adheres the first flange section to the second panel member. The first panel member includes a load transmission section near a joint section, and the load transmission section is provided between the panel body section and the first flange section, and an angle ?2 thereof that is defined with the panel body section is larger than an angle ?1 defined by the panel body section and a portion in a short direction of the first flange section.

Abstract: A cowl panel comprises an upper face portion where a windshield is joined, a forward protrusion portion extending downwardly from the upper face portion, protruding forwardly, a rearward protrusion portion extending downwardly from a rear lower end of the forward protrusion portion, protruding rearwardly, and a lower face portion extending forwardly from a lower end of the rearward protrusion portion. A reinforcing member which is positioned on a forward side of the forward protrusion portion and the rearward protrusion portion of the cowl panel and joined to the forward protrusion portion and the lower face portion is provided. The reinforcing member comprises a straight portion which substantially straightly extends downwardly from a joint part where the reinforcing member is joined to the forward protrusion portion, and the straight portion is provided with a fragile part.

Abstract: There are provided an outside crash can provided on an outward side of an inside crash can, extending obliquely forward and outward from a front-end side middle portion of the front side frame and connecting to an outward end portion of a bumper reinforcement and a second set plate connecting the inside crash can and the outside crash can to the front side frame. The second set plate includes a middle wall extending longitudinally, a front end wall extending inward from a front end of the middle wall, and a rear end wall extending outward from a rear end of the middle wall, a rear end-side portion of the inside crash can is connected to the front and rear end walls, and a rear-end side portion of the outside crash can is connected to the middle and rear end walls.

Abstract: To provide scissors having a smoother cut with a light feel. A pair of scissors includes two cutting members. Each cutting member includes a blade 110 having an edge, a handle having a grip, and a joint region 120. The joint regions 120 of the cutting members are pivotally joined together using a joint assembly so that the cutting members can pivotally move. Each of the edges is curved so that an angle between the edges is kept within a range between 27° and 43° when the cutting members move from an opened position forming an angle of 30° therebetween to a closed position. A contact-free part 140 which is a recess is formed in the inner surface of the blade 110. The contact-free part 140 extends beneath the joint assembly.

Abstract: The present invention provides a folder binding device including a binding device main body part in which insertion holes are formed into which binding legs are inserted, operating parts which are attached to the binding device main body part in such a manner as to rotate on rotating projections at end portions thereof as fulcrums, and sliding parts adapted to slide on the binding device main body part, wherein the sliding parts are connected to the operating parts via hinge parts in such a manner as to be activated by rotary operations of the operating parts to slide on the binding device main body part, whereby both fastening and unfastening operations of binding legs are made simple and a stable fastening of the binding legs is enabled.
