Stossstangenanordnung eines Kraftfahrzeuges zum Schutz von Fussgängern

摘要

The invention relates to a bumper assembly of a motor vehicle for pedestrian protection, comprising at least a bumper beam (1) and a bumper fascia (3). The invention is characterised in that an undertray (6) is fixed at its forward end to the lower edge (5) of the fascia (3), the undertray (6) extends for the most part rearwards and the undertray (6) is fixed at its rearward end to the vehicle, for example to the cooling pack (8) or the engine, but not at the bumper assembly. Therefore no extra lower bumper beam or stiffener is required for catching the lower leg of a pedestrian.
