FRONT STRUCTURE OF VEHICLE BODY

摘要

A front structure (1) of a vehicle body, wherein a shock absorber receiving member (13) forwardly projecting from a dash panel (3) is installed at a position corresponding to a shock absorber (8) in the lateral and height directions of a vehicle. By the front structure (1) of the vehicle body, when the vehicle (2) is collided, the backward movement of the shock absorber (8) is arrested by the shock absorber receiving member (13) and an impact load acting on the shock absorber (8) is transmitted to the dash panel (3) through the shock absorber receiving member (13) and efficiently distributed to the skeleton of the vehicle body. Also, when the shock absorber (8) is moved backward at the collision of the vehicle (2), a bending rigidity and a reaction can be increased since the shock absorber (8) is brought into contact with the shock absorber receiving member (13) and a distance between the support points of the shock absorber (8) is reduced.
