Filed: 2002-04-18
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reflector usable over a long period of time and having plastic which is not embrittled or deformed on the periphery and to provide a method for using the reflector at a stationary part. SOLUTION: The reflector has a silver-containing layer on the outside. This silver-containing layer is formed from a silver diffused coating material obtained by carrying out annealing after spraying, coating or dipping on the outer surface of the reflector. Since UV does not pass through housing of the coated reflector, plastic present on the outside of the reflector does not macerate and the embrittlement, fading and degradation of the plastic are avoided, accordingly the reflector can be used at a stationary fixed part over a long period of time.

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle front end structure which is applicable to a light vehicle of a displacement of ≤660 cc, or a vehicle having a relatively large cargo room space such as a van and a truck among small-size vehicles of a displacement of about 1,000 cc with an engine mounted on the lower side or the rear side of a cabin.  <P>SOLUTION: A carrier 4 is directly fixed to a dash panel 5. The distance between a vehicle body and the carrier 4 is thereby reduced. A radiator 1 forms a vehicle front end component having a relatively large mass when filled with cooling water, and if the distance between the vehicle body and the carrier 4 is reduced, large bending moment is prevented from being applied to the carrier 4 even when heat exchangers of the radiator 1 and the like are oscillated by vehicle vibration.
