Side-collision protection device for use in door of motor vehicle, has crash carriers comprising end and middle areas, and deformation element for tilting carriers around tilting axis during side collision of object on carriers

摘要

The device has crash carriers (8, 9) comprising end areas (10) and middle areas (11), where each end area has a deformation element (14). The deformation element tilts the crash carriers around a tilting axis during side collision of an object on the crash carriers, where the tilting axis runs through the deformation element. The crash carriers are fastened to a vehicle door (1) over the deformation element. The crash carriers are made from fiber composite plastic, where an outer side cover of the door is made from plastic. A connection element (17) connects the middle areas with one another. An independent claim is also included for a vehicle door comprising a side-collision protection device.
