Abstract
Provided is a modular bumper back beam which secures crash performance, is changeable depending on the design of a mobility device through commonization of parts so as to easily cope with design and data required by the mobility device, and has a simple structure so as to be simplified in terms of management and assembly. Thereby, the modular bumper back beam is assembled and manufactured using the minimum number of molds through commonization of parts of the bumper back beam, thereby being capable of reducing manufacturing costs.
Claims16
A modular bumper back beam comprising:
- a first member configured to form a central part of the modular bumper back beam, and provided with first coupling parts at both ends of the first member;
- a second member configured to form one side part of the modular bumper back beam, disposed at one side of the first member, and provided with a second coupling part at one end of the second member facing the first member;
- a third member configured to form a remaining side part of the modular bumper back beam, disposed at a remaining side of the first member, and provided with a third coupling part at one end of the third member facing the first member;
- first links disposed between the first member and the second member, and connected to the first coupling part and the second coupling part so as to fix a connection position between the first member and the second member;
- and
- second links disposed between the first member and the third member, and connected to the first coupling part and the third coupling part so as to fix a connection position between the first member and the third member.
