Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 and 2 Shows the plan view ( figure 1) and the cross section ( figure 2 ).

[0030] figure 1 A plan view from above of a windshield cross member 1 according to an embodiment of the invention is shown. The arrow marked here with the reference symbol FL represents the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

[0031] The directions above and in front are shown here for better clarity with reference to a coordinate system. With reference to the xy-plane, the x-axis is shown here in the direction denoted front and the y-axis in the direction denoted up.

[0032] Depend on figure 1 It can be seen that the windshield cross member 1 according to the invention is designed in three parts. It thus comprises a first edge section 2 and a second edge section 3 in the form of a cantilever and a middle section 4 with a U-shaped cross-section located between the first and second edge sections. The first edge section 2 is here designed as a support section for the windsh...

Abstract

The invention relates to a body structure for a motor vehicle with a windshield, the body structure having a windshield cross member (1) supporting the windshield (16), wherein the windshield cross member (1 ) comprises a first edge section (2) and a second edge section (3) in the form of a cantilever and an intermediate section (4) with a U-shaped cross-section between them, wherein the first edge section (2 ) form a support section (13) for the windshield, the second edge section (3) is arranged longitudinally behind the first edge section (2) along the vehicle (10) and is fixed on the on a fixed part of the body structure (14), and the middle section (4) is designed such that it has a cross-section arched in the direction of the bonnet (21) of the motor vehicle (10) and can be positioned above the and / or deform when a forward force is applied.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a body structure for a motor vehicle with a windshield, wherein the body structure has a windshield cross member which deforms, especially in the event of a collision between a pedestrian and the motor vehicle, in order to absorb the energy resulting from this collision. Background technique [0002] Most accidents in road traffic are collisions between pedestrians or drivers and cars. Protection systems for car occupants, such as seat belt pretensioners and airbags in particular, are now a series standard in almost all classes of cars and provide an optimum protection for car occupants, while pedestrians are rarely seen in such collisions protected and subject to a high risk of injury. In this case, pedestrians on the road are mostly hit by the front of the vehicle and hit the bonnet or the lower edge of the windshield with their heads, which can cause injuries to the pedestrian. [0003] In order to reduce the risk of pedes...
