  • Injection moulded part, energy absorbing assembly with spacer, and method for making such an assembly
    Patent number: 7934587
    Abstract: An injected part (26) designed to form by being folded, an energy absorbing device and a spacer, the energy absorbing device having a number of hollow elements (12) projecting from a first plate portion (10), and a number of hollow elements (16) projecting from a second plate portion (14), associated in pairs. The spacer includes a number of spacing elements (20) projecting from a third plate portion (18), one of the plate portions (10, 14, 18) is articulated on the other two, and the articulations (28, 30) are such that, after each of the plates has rotated by 180°, a first hollow element (12), a second hollow element (16) and a spacer element (20) are aligned.
