Abstract:

To reduce weight while absorbing impact energy by constituting a vehicular shock absorber of a cylindrical frame member being formed by extrusion molding of an aluminum alloy and having a partition wall for partitioning the inside space by being extended in the extruding direction and an elastic foaming body arranged in isolated chambers partitioned by the partition wall.

A shock absorber used for a front side bumper of a vehicle is constituted by using a cylindrical frame member 1 being formed in a cylindrical shape and having a partition wall 11 for partitioning the inside space into a front isolated chamber 12 and a rear isolated chamber 13 and an elastic foaming body 2 filled/arranged in the front isolated chamber 12 and the rear isolated chamber 13 as a main element. The cylindrical frame member 1 is formed in a cylindrical shape by extrusion molding of an aluminum alloy, and has a single partition wall 11 for partitioning the inside space into the front isolated chamber 12 and the rear isolated chamber 13 by being extended in the extruding direction. A slit formed in the extruding direction at extrusion molding time is provided in a central part of this partition wall 11, and the front isolated chamber 12 and the rear isolated chamber 13 are communicated by this slit.
