A VEHICLE

摘要

A vehicle door has a supporting press formed frame (10) of high-strength steel that has two standing hat beams (13, 15) interconnected by an upper horizontal hat beam (14), a lower horizontal hat beam (16) and an intermediate side impact guard beam (22). The hat beams have their crowns (12) directed towards the interior of the vehicle and they carry an outer panel (28) by their outer side flanges (17). The standing hat beams (13, 15) have a profile height on at least a portion (23, 24, 28) of their length that overlaps the corresponding pillar (30, 34). Thereby, in a frontal crash, the frame of the door can transmit force from the A-pillar of the vehicle to the B-pillar.
