Patent ID: 7097222

Claim:
An anti-crash safety device for a vehicle having a vehicle body, comprising: a supporting frame adapted for securely mounting to said vehicle body; and an impact rebounding unit, which is supported by said supporting frame, comprising: at least a resilient reinforcing member positioned spaced apart from said vehicle body and defining a receiving cavity between said resilient reinforcing member and said vehicle body for shielding at least a portion of said vehicle body, wherein said resilient reinforcing member is adapted to retain a restoring force for bounding an impact force away from said vehicle body when said impact force is applied on said resilient reinforcing member; at least a shock absorbing element rearwardly extended from said resilient reinforcing member within said receiving cavity, wherein said shock absorbing element is adapted for applying an urging force to absorb said impact force from said resilient reinforcing member so as to minimize said impact force transmitting from said resilient reinforcing member to said vehicle body and to protect said vehicle body from directly being crashed by said impact force; and at least one resilient retention member, having a stiffness stronger than a stiffness of said resilient reinforcing member, supported by said supporting frame within said receiving cavity at a position behind said resilient reinforcing member, wherein said shock absorbing element is supported within said receiving cavity substantially to bias between said resilient reinforcing member and said resilient retention member, wherein said resilient retention member, which is made of bendable material, forms as a curved elongated member aligned with said resilient reinforcing member to form said receiving cavity having an oval shape that a distance between said resilient retention member and said resilient reinforcing member is gradually reducing from a mid-portion to two side portions.
