A VEHICLE DOOR AND A SIDE IMPACT BEAM FOR SUCH

摘要

A vehicle door has an impact protection beam (12) which bears a sensor (20) for releasing one or more impact cushions. The beam (12) is a hat beam with its concave side facing towards the interior of the vehicle, and a fitting hole (18) in the central flange (12) for fitting the sensor (20) within the beam. One of the hat beam's webs (13) has clip holes for fitting the sensor's cabling along the beam.
