ABSORBING ELEMENT FOR THE FOOT OF A PASSENGER IN A MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

An absorbing element for the foot of a passenger in a motor vehicle, comprising a floor (1), an area forming a foot rest close to a body element, consisting of a bearing plane (33), characterized in that it comprises two lateral wings (40,50) consisting of low extremities (42,53) which form bearing areas with the floor (1) during phases in which kinetic energy is absorbed and which are arranged on each side of the bearing plane (33), said wings (40,50) being cross-linked by a stabilization bar (60) which extends in a substantially vertical manner by means of ribs (61,62) on the lateral surfaces (43,54) of the wings (40,50) in order to form two complementary bearing areas (63,64), contained on the same plane as the low extremities (42,53) of the outer (40) and inner (50) wings.
