FRONTSIDE STRUCTURE OF CAR BODY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect collisions as early as possible and collisions at high and low positions with one collision sensor. SOLUTION: A bumper reinforcement 10 is disposed at a front and low position with respect to a radiator shroud upper 2 at a high position. Almost intermediate parts of the radiator shroud upper 2 and the bumper reinforcement 10 in a vehicle width direction are coupled with each other by a coupling member 30. At the radiator shroud upper 2 or in the vicinity of a coupling part of the coupling member 30 with the radiator shroud upper 2, a collision sensor 40 is mounted. A bending part 55 in a back-an-forth direction may be formed at an intermediate portion of a coupling member 30B (Fig. 5) or a cut off part 55 may be formed at an intermediate portion of the coupling member 30 (Fig. 6).
