Abstract: A vehicle front structure includes a pair of side rails extending in a vehicle forward-rearward direction on right and left sides in a front portion of the vehicle and a hollow bumper reinforcement extending in a vehicle right-left direction and coupled to front ends of the pair of side rails. The bumper reinforcement includes side extension parts extending outward beyond the side rails, respectively. The vehicle front structure further includes load transmission members each extending from a front face of each of the side extension part of the bumper reinforcement through the side extension part and further extending rearward and toward the inward of the vehicle. In a small overlap crash, the load transmission member transmits a collision load directly to the side rail.

Abstract: A bumper assembly for a motor vehicle includes an energy absorber providing a variable stiffness for different displacements. The energy absorber includes a skin portion attached to a bumper beam, a rib pivotally attached to an end of the skin portion and a reinforced element attached to an end of the rib. The rib is movable from a first position that provides a first stiffness for a first displacement to a second position providing a second stiffness greater than the first stiffness over a second displacement.

Abstract: A variable shear control energy absorption system for a vehicle is provided. The system may include a vehicle frame component and a primary deformable impact absorber located adjacent the vehicle frame component. The vehicle frame component may be a bumper reinforcement member. The system may include a plurality of secondary deformable impact chambers located within the primary deformable impact absorber, each secondary deformable impact chamber including a shear thickening fluid that exhibits an increasing or decreasing viscosity responsive to an impact force. At least one elastic relief chamber is provided in fluid communication with the plurality of secondary deformable impact chambers. The elastic relief chamber is configured to temporarily accept the shear thickening fluid from the plurality of secondary deformable impact chambers during low force impacts, and to redirect the shear thickening fluid back to the secondary deformable impact chambers after the low impact force recedes.
