Shock absorber to improve safety in passenger compartments of motor vehicles

摘要

The shock absorber in a vehicle is in the form of an impact vessel (B). Energy absorption takes place for the most part by a number of temporally consecutive shearing actions of the absorption material in the event of a collision. The impact vessel is divided into shearing zones which in length are bounded by curvatures. The impact vessel is formed as a stepped pyramid or terrace arrangement with any plant layout. IMAGE
