Description

Technical Field

[0002] The 25% frontal small offset test was introduced by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in its new car safety evaluation in 2012. The percentage refers to the overlap between the width of the vehicle body and the barrier. The smaller the overlap, the smaller the contact force area, and the higher the damage to the vehicle body and occupants. The way to judge the quality of the vehicle body is generally to record and analyze the deformation of the vehicle body during and after the collision, and combine the damage values ​​of various parts of the dummy to judge the protection ability of the vehicle body to the occupants. In general, affected by the vehicle shape, vehicle layout and body structure, the target value can often be achieved through minor changes. On the premise that the cross-section of the A-pillar and the door sill is not increased, in order to ensure that the collision force can be stably transmitted and dispersed to the A-pillar and the door sill, and reduce the intrusion of small offset collisions, it is necessary to invent a new A-pillar reinforcement plate structure.
