    Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided an improved bumper construction for an automotive vehicle.The vehicle has a plurality of bumper mounting stays and a body panel adjacent the stays.The bumper construction comprises a thin-walled plastic bumper, a reinforcement member mounted to the bumper at an intermediate section thereof adjacent the body panel and a spring member interposed between the reinforcement member and the vehicle body panel. The reinforcement member and the intermediate section of the bumper are adapted to define a closed bumper configuration. The spring member is operatively connected to the reinforcement member and the vehicle body panel such that the intermediate section of the bumper is supported through the spring member by the body panel. The spring member is rigid in the vertical direction to resist vertical movement of the bumper relative to the vehicle body and is resiliently deformable in the horizontal direction to yieldingly resist the horizontal movement of the intermediate section of the bumper toward the vehicle body panel.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for operating a seat-occupant restraining device in response to collision of a vehicle, comprising a front bumper on the vehicle adapted for receiving impact in the course of a collision and supported by a damper which opposes rearward displacement of the bumper. The damping is a function of the change of velocity of the vehicle during the collision and is used to displace a normally stationary part of the damper when the collision force exceeds a predetermined value. The displacement of the stationary part of the damper serves to close a switch to actuate the seat-occupant restraining device. The switch can be an acceleration detection switch in which case the stationary part is supported by the vehicle body by a deformable structure or the switch can be made as a deformable unit which undergoes deformation by the application of force thereto from the stationary part of the damper.

    Abstract: A shock-absorbing device, such as a vehicle fender, comprises an assembly of interconnected elastomeric cells. The cells are arranged to extend at right angles to the forces to be absorbed and have a polygonal cross-section. The cells are formed so that, in absorbing forces, the device is initially resiliently deformed, then deformed by buckling of the cell walls and finally compressed.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a hydraulic energy absorbing bumper system for vehicles that includes a bumper with two variable stroke hydraulic buffers affixed to the ends. Both the stroke and the resistance of the buffers vary in response to the impact received by the bumper, however the resistance presented by either buffer during any given stroke is constant throughout the length of the stroke. Torsion hinges coupling the buffers to the bumper allow the buffers to stroke unevenly during oblique impact yet remain parallel. The bumpers are hydraulically interconnected so that the total energy absorbed during uneven stroking in response to the oblique impact is the same as the total energy absorbed during a normal impact of the same velocity.
