Abstract

The invention discloses a vehicle bumper assembly comprising: an elongated energy absorbing element, a plurality of mounting elements, a wire harness and a bumper fascia. The elongated energy absorbing element is sized to extend between a first side and a second side of the vehicle, the energy absorbing element has an interior facing surface, an exterior facing surface and is disposed between the interior facing surface and the vehicle interior facing surface. The upper surface between the exterior facing surfaces, the mounting elements spaced longitudinally along the upper surface of the energy absorbing element, each of the mounting elements having a wiring harness mounting structure, the wiring harness being connected to the mounting element On the harness mounting structure of the utility model, the harness is supported longitudinally above the upper surface of the energy absorbing element at the mounting element. The bumper fascia fits over the energy absorbing element, thereby concealing the wiring harness.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a vehicle bumper assembly. More particularly, the present invention relates to a bumper assembly including a harness mounting structure. Background technique [0002] Often, various parts and assemblies of a car are redesigned to improve functionality. One such component that is undergoing redesign is the vehicle bumper component of passenger cars. Years ago, vehicle bumper assemblies typically consisted of a one-piece chromed metal element that was screwed to the front or rear end of the vehicle. In recent years, such bumper assemblies have been redesigned to include an energy-absorbing inner element and an outer fascia element that covers and conceals the energy-absorbing inner element. The energy-absorbing interior member is typically a resilient member which absorbs energy during a vehicle impact. The fascia elements in such vehicle bumper assembly designs are typically flexible elements whose shape an...
