Patent ID: 7946636

Claim:
A front shock absorbing structure of a vehicle, comprising: a bumper reinforcement member that is disposed in a vehicle width direction in a front portion of a vehicle body and is formed as a rigid elongated member; and a solid shock absorbing member that is disposed on a front surface of the bumper reinforcement member, wherein the solid shock absorbing member is vertically divided into a first shock absorbing portion and a second shock absorbing portion, the first and second shock absorbing portions being integrally coupled to each other at a forward side, so as to define a space therebetween at a rearward side, and the coupling being formed as an integrally coupled condition that can be broken when an impact is applied to the solid shock absorbing member from the front of the vehicle, wherein at least one of the first shock absorbing portion and the second shock absorbing portion has a protruding portion that is projected toward the space, and wherein when the coupling between the first and second shock absorbing portions is separated by the impact that is applied to the solid shock absorbing member from the front of the vehicle, the protruding portion contacts the front surface of the bumper reinforcement member before a separated portion of the coupling contacts the same, thereby absorbing the impact.
