ENERGY ABSORBING MEMBER AND METHOD FOR MAKING AN ENERGY ABSORBING MEMBER

摘要

Energy absorbing member (1) comprising at least two side wall members (2, 3) and a closed space inside said side wall member (2, 3), thereby forming a closed hollow profile. The at least two side wall members (2, 3) are preformed prior to being connected to each other, thereby forming a closed hollow profile. Method for producing an energy absorbing member (1) where at least a part of a sheet material is shaped into a predefined shape thereby making a wall member (2) which is joined in such a way that it forms a closed hollow profile.
