Reinforcing structure for body frame of vehicle

The reinforcing structure for a body frame of a vehicle, comprising:

• a hollow outer member arranged on an exterior side of the vehicle;
• a reinforcement arranged inside the outer member to extend in the longitudinal direction of the outer member;
• and
• a waveform adjusting mechanism for adjusting respective peaks of waveforms in the buckling mode of the outer member and the reinforcement,
• wherein the reinforcement is connected to the outer member a part other than a minimum strength part of the outer member, and the waveform adjusting mechanism includes a relief space which is formed between the minimum strength part of the outer member and the reinforcement to relieve bending deformations thereof.

The reinforcing structure for a body frame of a vehicle, comprising:

• a hollow outer member arranged on an exterior side of the vehicle;
• a reinforcement arranged inside the outer member to extend in the longitudinal direction of the outer member;
• and
• a waveform adjusting mechanism for adjusting respective peaks of waveforms in the buckling mode of the outer member and the reinforcement,
• wherein the waveform adjusting mechanism is adapted so as to establish the number of peaks of a waveform in the buckling mode of the outer member to be different from the number of peaks of a waveform in the buckling mode of the reinforcement.

The reinforcing structure for a body frame of a vehicle, comprising:

• a hollow outer member arranged on an exterior side of the vehicle;
• a reinforcement arranged inside the outer member to extend in the longitudinal direction of the outer member;
• and
• a waveform adjusting mechanism for adjusting respective peaks of waveforms in the buckling mode of the outer member and the reinforcement,
• wherein the waveform adjusting mechanism is adapted in a manner that, when the number of peaks of a waveform in the buckling mode of either one of the outer member and the reinforcement is equal to n, the number of peaks of a waveform in the buckling mode of the other one is set to n±1.
