Crash management system with an additional element connecting the absorber to the cross beam

Abstract

A crash management system (1) for a front or rear part of a vehicle having a longitudinal direction X, a transverse direction Y perpendicular to the longitudinal direction X and a vertical direction Z perpendicular to the longitudinal direction X and to the transverse direction Y, said crash management system (1) having a crash management system length (LC) along the Y direction and comprising: a cross beam (2) having a cross beam length (LB) along the Y direction, at least one additional element (3) having an outer face (36) and an inner face (50), wherein the additional element has at least one wall (38) which is connected to said cross beam (2), at least one absorber (4) having an outer face and/or an inner face, characterized in that said cross beam length (LB) is smaller than said crash management system length (LC), said cross beam (2) is connected to said absorber (4) through said additional element (3).
