Side structure of passenger car, has energy absorption element formed with penetration portion to absorb impact energy due to accidental displacement of vehicle pillar inward in vehicle transverse direction
摘要
<p>The side structure has a vehicle side pillar (12) connected to a roof element (14) of a car chassis and to a base element (16) of a vehicle floor (18) through an energy absorption element (30). The energy absorption element that is partially penetrating into the base element and cooperating with the base element is formed with a penetration portion extended to absorb the impact energy due to the accidental displacement of the vehicle pillar inward in the vehicle transverse direction.</p>
