Title:
ENERGY-ABSORBING MEMBER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/035694
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An energy-absorbing member is provided with a fiber structure. The fiber structure comprises a first end face configured so that a load is initially applied thereto and a second end face located on the side opposite to the first end face in the direction that the load is applied. The fiber structure is provided with: a shape-maintaining section comprising the first end face; a main body, which comprises the second end face and is for limiting the progress of the destruction of the fiber structure; and a trigger section, which is disposed between the shape-maintaining section and the main body and serves as a destruction starting point when subjected to an impact load. Due to the weave, both the shape-maintaining section and the main body have higher inter-layer bonding strength than the trigger section.
