Impact bar |
摘要 |
Apparatus for inhibiting substantial rearward displacement of an automotive vehicle's engine/transmission powertrain and for transferring rearward thrust of the engine to support structure of the vehicle. A rigid transversely extending cross beam in the form of a hollow tube is secured to the support structure and located just rearwardly of the powertrain. An impact member is secured to the engine/transmission in a position between the engine and the cross beam. The impact member is in the form of an elongated, generally C-shaped bar with its opposite ends secured to the engine/transmission. The impact bar has an intermediate portion formed with a concave section spaced from and opposed to the cross beam member. Rearward thrust of the engine/transmission is transmitted to the cross beam and ultimately to the support structure of the vehicle, inhibiting substantial rearward movement of the engine/transmission.
