IMPACT-ABSORBING ELEMENT FOR A VEHICLE AND METHODS OF PRODUCING THE SAME
摘要
<p>The invention relates to an impact-absorbing element for a vehicle, in particular a car, comprising: - a body comprising a thermoplastic polymer material; - an elongate reinforcing structure provided in the body and comprising a number of metal reinforcing cords extending substantially parallel and a number of positioning elements arranged between the cords for holding the metal reinforcing cords substantially mutually parallel before and during the manufacturing process. The positioning elements ensure that the cords remain correctly positioned before, during and after the manufacturing process despite the forces occurring in the manufacturing process.</p>
