  • Front grill impact-absorbing structure for a vehicle
    Patent number: 7108092
    Abstract: A front grill impact-absorbing structure has a load-transmitting member (90) which retreats together with a front grill (30) when a collision force (F1) acts on the front grill from the front. By the load-transmitting member retreating together with the front grill, the collision force is transmitted to a water-cooled engine radiator (20) inside an engine compartment (11). In the initial state of the collision, the radiator absorbs the collision force and moderates the collision force.
