Abstract: A device for connecting a steering column to a cross member positioned between two A-pillars. The device comprises a front connecting region, a cross member-accommodating region, and a rear connecting region. The device comprises at least one metal structure, which is designed as a bow or comprises at least one such bow, extending from the front connecting region to the rear connecting region. A base body supports the metal structure. The metal structure is substantially the main load path for introducing force into the cross member. The base body is connected to the metal structure in at least the front connecting region and rear connecting region, in the direction of the main load path.

Abstract: A device 1 for connecting a steering column to a crossmember 2 positioned between two A-pillars comprises a front connecting region 3, a crossmember-accommodating region 4, and a rear connecting region 5. The device 1 comprises at least one metal structure 8, which is designed as a bow or comprises at least one such bow and extends from the front to the rear connecting region 3, 5 and a base body 6 that supports the metal structure 8. The metal structure 8 substantially is the main load path for introducing force into the crossmember 2. The base body 6 is connected to the metal structure at least in the front and rear connecting region 3, 5 in the direction of the main load path.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle bumper assembly (1) having a bumper cross-member (2) and at least two energy-absorption components (3), which are arranged at a distance from one another and which are connected to the rear side of the bumper cross-member (2) and supported thereon by means of a first end. The energy-absorption components have an x-direction absorption effective direction oriented perpendicular to the y-axes longitudinal extension of the bumper. The energy-absorption components (3) are designed to be supported on a chassis part (4) of a vehicle by means of the end of the energy-absorption components pointing away from the bumper cross-member, wherein the energy-absorption component (3) has a slanted end face (5) in the direction toward the bumper cross-member (2).
