Abstract

1391780 Vehicle doors GKN SANKEY Ltd and ARO PLASTICS DEVELOPMENT Ltd 30 Nov 1972 [24 Dec 1971] 53760/71 Heading B7J [Also in Division F2] An energy absorbing device for use in car doors and bumpers comprises a composite consisting of a matrix 10 having therein a reinforcing element 11 in the form of first tubular members 12 and second tubular members 13 extending between and frictionally gripped within, the first members, the bond between the first members 12 and matrix being of greater shear strength than the frictional engagement between the first and second members. If the composite overloaded in tension matrix 10 fractures and each member 13 starts to move out of its associated members 12 to absorb energy due to friction forces between the members 12, 13. If the composite is overloaded in compression, members 13 move together in members 12. The space within each member 12 between each pair of end portions 14 of members 13 may be filled with a resilient or friable material such as a foamed plastics. The ends of members 12 are chamfered. Matrix 10 may be of a synthetic polymeric material such as a thermoplastic or thermosetting material, for example a polyester resin, which may be reinforced with glass or other fibres. The members may be of mild steel or high strength, high modulus, synthetic polymeric material reinforced by glass or carbon fibres. Relative movement between the members may be accompanied by cold work by forming. The first tubular member is defined at two adjacent portions 24, 25 of oval shape whose major axes are transverse so that for the second member to move relative to the first member the latter will have to be deformed by the second and do cold work on it. In a construction for a vehicle door two composites are provided each of which extends between a common lock and latch and a hinge of the door.
