PURPOSE: Cowl panel structure of a close box type is provided to minimize damage of a pedestrian by absorbing impact while applying impact into a hood panel. CONSTITUTION: Cowl panel structure of a close box type for protecting a pedestrian comprises a space formed between a cowl top panel(12a) and a hood inner panel(10a); a bracket(20) attaching lower ends to an upper portion of the cowl top panel; and a windshield glass(G) combined to a cowl top cover by a bolt(14). The lower ends of the bracket are fixed on the upper portion of the cowl top panel with specific interval. A lower end portion of the windshield glass is combined to an upper end portion of the cowl top cover. The bracket is conveniently deformed to absorb impact. Thereby, the cowl panel structure of the close box type minimizes damage of a pedestrian by absorbing impact while applying impact into a hood panel.
