Abstract:
1. A support structure of a front body structure which is mounted at a front portion of a front side member forming a frame of a front of a vehicle body in a length direction of the vehicle and has a face extended in a width direction of the vehicle and configured for the front body structure to transmit crash energy to the front side member when a small overlap crash happens, the support structure comprising: a first supporting member having both ends in a length direction thereof, the both ends being fixedly coupled respectively to a rear face of the front body structure in the length direction of the vehicle and any one of both side surfaces of the front side member in the width direction of the vehicle, and configured to support the small overlap crash energy firstly; a second supporting member having both end portions, a first end portion being rotatably coupled to a first end portion of the first supporting member and a second end portion being detachably coupled to a second end portion of the first supporting member such that in case fixedly coupled portions of the first supporting member are deformed or damaged, the second supporting member is configured to rotate on the first end portion thereof, wherein a second fixing member is formed or mounted at a rear end of the second supporting member in the length direction of the vehicle, and wherein the second supporting member stops rotating and becomes coupled to the front side member by the second fixing member such that the second supporting member secondly supports the crash energy; and a convex or concave guide rail formed longitudinally on any one of the both side surfaces of the front side member in the width direction of the vehicle, wherein the second fixing member is a plate type member contacting a surface of the front side member and has a concave or convex guide groove formed thereon such that a rectilinear motion of the second fixing member is caused in a length direction of the front side member by the guide rail.
