<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To establish compatibility between securing the stiffness/strength of a vehicle hood for protecting a colliding body and equipping the hood with a folding effect to work when an impact load equal to or more than the specified value is applied from ahead of the vehicle body. <P>SOLUTION: In the central region 14E on the inner panel 14 of the hood 10, a plurality of beads 18 as a skeleton are formed straight in the vehicle width direction. The section shape of the bead 18 appearing when cut in the vehicle front-rear direction is in a circular arc convex to over the vehicle body, and assumes approximately constant over the vehicle width. The two ends 18B across the vehicle width of each bead part 18 reach near the two ends 14C and 14D across the vehicle width formed at the left and right ends of the hood inner panel 14. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
